Chapter 230: Adventure is my hobby
......
Thundercloud leaves the inn with Silver, and they go to the Magic Society first.
At the counter of the Magic Society, Thundercloud registered the task.
The girl behind the counter was completely stunned when she heard that he had succeeded in the interview.
She said incredulously, "If you can complete this task alive, you can get extra points when you are promoted to the Bronze three-star career level in the future." Of course, the premise is that you can come back alive. ”
She thinks that a two-star rookie who dares to go to the Misty Forest to explore is simply sending him to death.
However, this kind of thing has happened before, they all went with the expedition, and some people were lucky to survive.
But this time, they're going to the City of the Sun!
Many people think that even He Zhen and Gao Shiqi may not be able to come back alive.
Lei Yun is very calm, if he can't even come back, then there is no one in this world who can come back.
He left the Magic Guild with Sylph and went to the Magic Market in the east of the city.
When Sylph heard that he was going to buy himself a magic wand, she was always excited, and she said, "Shall we buy something else?"
She was embarrassed, so she asked him that.
Lei Yun thought for a while and said, "I don't lack anything anymore, I still like to travel light, so it's easier to move." ”
The two of them wandered around the magic market, and for some reason, Thundercloud always felt that someone was following him behind him.
When I looked back, I didn't find anything.
The other party followed him from the hotel all the way here, and he didn't know what the purpose was?
Forget it, don't bother to care about him. Thundercloud focused on the stalls next to him.
This magical market is several times larger than that of Grand City. There was a bustling crowd in front of me, and various sounds of selling came from the roadside stalls from time to time.
There was a guy who was shouting: "Let's take a look, the newly developed Hidden Arrow can be used to launch a rope into the cliff if you accidentally fall from a high altitude during your adventure, and it can save your life at a critical time." ”
Lei Yun was stunned for a moment, and found that many people were watching, so he also squeezed in.
I saw a few exquisite sleeve arrows on the shelf, which was like a bowl, small and exquisite.
In order to show the effect, the boss picked up a sleeve arrow, mounted it on his arm, and then aimed it at an iron plate in the distance, and activated the machine buckle.
With a "ding" sound, a ray of cold light shot out from inside, and it shot directly into the iron plate opposite. Behind it, sure enough, there was a tiny steel wire connected to it.
The boss pulled hard, and even slashed a few times with a knife, and the wire was unharmed.
I only heard him say: "This rope is made of fiber steel, and its tension can withstand about a thousand catties." It can be up to thirty meters in length and is now sold for only twenty gold coins. ”
Thunderclouds found that this is a good thing.
Someone next to him laughed and said, "Boss, you're a bit nondescript, isn't this a hidden weapon used by assassins?
The boss nodded: "You really have an eye, if you remove the rope behind it, it will be an assassination artifact." But I think it's the right way to use it to save people, right?"
Everyone laughed.
Thundercloud also laughed, but unfortunately his budget was a little insufficient, so he should go and buy a magic wand for Sylph first.
He left the crowd with Silver. I suddenly found that I was still very short of money, and I had to make more money!
Before they know it, they come to a magic shop.
The store is so well stocked that it is filled with magic hats, magic boots, magic cloaks, and several rows of magic wands, and there is no end in sight.
Thundercloud said to Silver, "You can pick it yourself, the budget this time is about twenty gold coins." ”
When Sylph came to the counter, her beautiful eyes immediately gleaming with excitement.
Looking at it, the magic wands here are so beautiful and shining, she is a little dazzled, and she doesn't know which one to choose.
It took half an hour for her to take a fancy to a small, delicate magic wand. Its handles are all sterling silver, and it's topped with a sapphire gem.
When asked about the price, it only costs fifteen gold coins, which is very cheap.
Thundercloud opened his money bag, counted it, and found that he still had about twenty-seven gold coins. In addition to her magic wand, she still has a surplus of twelve gold coins.
Wait a minute, if you sell the book "The Mysteries of Swift Travel", you might be able to get twenty gold coins. That way, you can go and buy that Hidden Arrow yourself.
I've already finished reading all of "The Mysteries of Swift Movement" anyway, and it's useless to keep it. Crucially, the book is very heavy and gets in the way of being in the package.
After all, you shouldn't have bought this book yourself. Because by your own memory, you can remember it just by looking at it once.
Next time you want to learn magic, you just need to go to someone else's place to see it once. Haha, I'm so smart!
Thundercloud took out fifteen gold coins and placed them on the counter.
Hilf happily picked up her wand, and she played with it with love.
But after only ten seconds, she said crisply: "Okay...... It's so heavy, I guess I won't be able to fly with it. ”
Lei Yun was stunned for a moment, and the clerk behind the counter also looked at her with a confused expression.
What is the meaning of not being able to "fly"? This little sister is so cute.
Lei Yun had a black line on his face, and said seriously: "This can only show that your ability is not enough." I'll have to practice a lot in the future. ”
Silph was stunned and said, "Okay." ”
Lei Yun thought that this little girl was quite cute, so he hugged her slender waist, straightened her delicate body, and said, "Let me see, how much do you weigh now?"
Not to mention, her whole person is light and fluttering, and it is estimated that she weighs only a few pounds at most.
Sylph looked at him very meekly and let him fiddle with himself at will.
At this moment, Thundercloud noticed a cold feeling coming from a distance.
When I looked back, I saw an old man in black clothes and a black hat standing at the door of the magic shop.
He was dressed like a butler, especially in his hand, and with a cane, he looked very gentlemanly.
It's just that in his sharp eyes, there is a terrifying cold light.
Thundercloud was a little depressed, thinking to himself, who are you, why are you looking at me like this?
His right hand was still resting on Silver's waist, and he didn't feel anything wrong with the movement.
The two sides looked at each other from a distance of more than ten meters.
Thundercloud is Thundercloud, he walked directly towards the other party and asked, "Do you know me?"
The old man didn't dodge anymore, just looked at him with a pair of cold eyes: "You are Xiao Lei." ”
"Yes, what are you looking for me?"
"You're having a good time here! Do you remember that there was a little girl still waiting for you? ”
"Who?"
"Looks like you've forgotten about her. ”
Countless thoughts flashed through Thundercloud's mind. Tiana's butler had seen it himself. Who the hell is this old man, I must have seen him for the first time.
He actually knows himself, there is only one possibility, he must be the housekeeper of Liuli.
Lei Yun was silent for a moment, and finally said tentatively: "Is Liuli okay in the imperial capital?"
Fu Jiaye said with a cold face: "Our young lady didn't go to the imperial capital at all. ”
His answer was tantamount to admitting that he was Liuli's housekeeper.
Despite this, Lei Yun was still taken aback: "What did you say, why didn't Liuli go to the imperial capital?"
Fu Jiaye said coldly: "She is now in the Bounty City, if you want to know the answer, go find her yourself." ”
With that, he turned and left.
He didn't want to say anything more, and when he arrived here, he found that Lei Yun was eating and living with a beautiful woman, and he thought to himself that he didn't want this kind of scumbag.
Lei Yun was about to catch up and ask what was going on, but found that Fu Jiaye had disappeared without a trace.
Hilf was surprised: "Wow, his body is so fast!"
The old man didn't use the Swift Movement technique, but it had the same effect.
Lei Yun looked confused and said, "It's miserable, what should I do?"
He was faced with two choices.
One is to go to the Bounty City and immediately go to find Liuli.
The second is to continue to meet with Gao Shiqi and them tomorrow and go on an expedition as usual.
He now feels as if career and love are facing a choice.
Lei Yun can only start to calculate the gains and losses in two aspects: if he goes to Liuli, his contract with Gao Shiqi will face a breach. I also registered with the Magic Association, and once I cancel this operation, it will definitely affect my credit in the future.
The most important thing is that there are thirteen people participating in this expedition, and everyone is waiting for them.
As for Liuli's side, she has always listened to her own words the most, and it shouldn't be a problem to go to her a few months later.
Thundercloud hesitated again and again, and finally decided to go on an expedition first, and then go to find Ruri when he returned.
He silently led Sylph out of the magic shop, never speaking again.
He went to the thrift market and sold the book "The Mysteries of Swift Movement". As a result, only eight gold coins were returned.
Counting back to exactly twenty gold coins, he returned to the magic market and bought a Hidden Arrow to attach to his arm.
It's really convenient, like a bracer, and if you cover it with your sleeve, you can't see it at all.
At this time, he found that he had become a pauper again, with only about twenty silver coins in his pocket.
Lei Yun sighed, the expedition really burned money. But it doesn't matter, anyway, I'm going to the City of the Sun, and I don't need to spend money there. When you come back, you can earn a reward of a few hundred gold coins. The current poverty is only temporary.
Thundercloud checked his equipment and found that his expedition equipment was very complete.
Exploration is always my biggest hobby, and it's definitely not too late to look for Liuli in a few months.
Before you know it, it's evening. He suddenly remembered that he had to go to Andy's dinner party in the evening, so he hurried back to the hotel and called Il out.
They rode in a carriage towards Devon Hills......
