Chapter 140: Shadows

The so-called mage gathering place,In fact, it is the place where the wild mage exchanges and rests on weekdays.,At the same time, it is also responsible for part of the function of trade and commerce.,In the final analysis,Almost all of the wild mages are mage apprentices.,Materials are needed to cast spells.,There will be consumption There will be transactions.,If there is demand, there will naturally be a market.。 Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Of course, there are some people who will collect it themselves, but unless they are so poor that they jingle loudly, no apprentice is willing to do the collection work with the common people, and as for the robbery, it is even more unreliable, once it is discovered, it is a dead end.

The most important function of the mage gathering is to regulate the wild mages within its sphere of influence, in fact, each mage gathering is a subordinate organization that controls the mage power in this area, and the owner has the power to kill the mages in the lower field.

If you are found to have violated the rules, you will be punished, even if only some ordinary people are victimized.

Of course, the wild mage will not be reconciled, he just killed some untouchables, his own life is much more noble than theirs, yes, it is so, but he still has to accept the punishment, not to mention that in the eyes of the mage, there is not much difference between the so-called apprentices and the common people.

A strong ant is still just an ant, and it is impossible for him to become a human.

Unwilling to do anything, the people in charge of the mage gathering place are real mages, not to mention that there are no more than fifty wild mages in a gathering place, even if the number is several times higher, it is useless.

In the eyes of the apprentices, the most feared thing about mages is not their powerful spells, but the invincible barrier, after you fight against the mage, no matter how desperate you try, you will never see your attack break through that light mask, that is not an enchantment, that is despair.

Of course, although the wild mages are just some mage apprentices, there will always be one or two characters with good talent or strong luck, and the successful promotion of the mage, so it seems that they have the power to resist, but this is not the case, the moment they become a mage, the wild mage is no longer a wild mage.

All in all, in the mage camp, no mage apprentice dares to be presumptuous, of course, if it is a mage, no matter what they do, it will not be considered presumptuous, but no one wants to do that, after all, it is necessary to give a little face to the local forces behind the mage, and among the mages, there are few who will mess around.

In the final analysis, the reason why the Mage Gathering can become a Mage Gathering is not because it holds the Enlightenment Altar, not because it has the necessary goods and goods for wild mages, nor because it has rich information and various bounties and the resulting mercenary-like mechanisms, but because it has the core existence of mages.

These two words stabilize the operation of the market, and they are the high walls that everyone who wants to commit adultery cannot bypass, and at the same time, they are also the greatest guarantee that punishment can be carried out.

But...... The mage here is not there.

Jing carefully sensed the entire walled city back and forth several times when he was close to the city of Su, but he didn't notice a single mana fluctuation, unless it was a mage of the same level or higher level than himself who deliberately concealed it, but it was only a mage gathering place, and this possibility was equal to zero.

Well, he was one of the people who was sent to the Glacier Shrine, and I don't know if he was going to besiege Yubi or if he was in the team attacking the Glacier Shrine......

Either way, things would be much easier without a mage.

As Chengli approached, the shape of the city became more and more concrete, but Chengli felt strange for no reason.

After all, there was no moat, no city gate, there was nothing at the gate, there were no people guarding the city, and there were no people waiting in line to enter the city, which was completely different from what Chengli imagined.

"Hmm, it's raining?" Chengli suddenly felt a little dampness falling above his head, and when he looked up, he saw that pure water lines were sliding down in the gray sky, and the dark clouds in the distance were rapidly pressing down at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Heavy rain is coming soon......

Next, it should be the rainy season that lasts for half a month, and it seems that you are going to stay here for a while, and following Jing through the huge fence-like walls of the city, Cheng Yuan can't help but guess that Jing should also stop here.

Jing looked around when she entered the city, and soon found her target, and immediately walked straight towards a tall house with Chengli, who noticed that there were four or five equally tall buildings in the city.

In the end, it is a city, after entering the city of donkey, Chengli looked around the surrounding buildings, in addition to the scale, the level of the building is far more than those villages, not to mention others, just talking about the roof, Chengli did not see a trace of straw, the rows on the roof are paved with black bricks, giving people a thick, simple, and a little solemn feeling.

However, although the scale of the city is quite large, but the people are very lonely, Chengli walked on the wide road in the middle, stepping on the gravel paved road, constantly looking at the buildings on both sides, but found that the doors and windows of each house were closed to death.

The black and white walls against the wind and frost, the eaves decorated with strange beast heads, the empty streets, and the rain that had become dense, Cheng Li suddenly felt gloomy, noticed that he was a little far away from Jing, and hurriedly trotted to follow.

Jing finally came to an end before the raindrops became heavier and denser, and although the house was also closed, there was a gap.

Cheng Li noticed that the high-rise building in front of him was more than half as tall as the surrounding houses, divided into three floors, each floor has a balcony railing on the periphery, and there are even vertical eaves, which is very elegant in classical Chinese architecture.

However, compared to the delicacy of Chinese architecture, this building seems to be much simpler and harder, and Chengli retracted his mind after a little look, in the end, these are just foreign objects.

"Squeak-" With a tooth-aching sound of old wood rubbing, Cheng Li followed Jing into the building, and to his slight surprise, there were more than a dozen people drinking inside, but he only noticed three spiritual power fluctuations.

Yes, Chengli quickly came to his senses, those who did not have spiritual power fluctuations should be the servants in this city, after all, the mage is still a human being, in addition to having seven emotions and six desires, he also has to eat, drink and Lazar, and he needs someone to serve him, and the common people will naturally come in handy at this time.

As for the two children, Cheng Li set his eyes on the two boys in the corner, and at a glance saw that the fabric styles of their clothes were very good, and he suddenly understood in his heart that they should be the heirs found by Master Ye, who were going to perform the enlightenment ceremony here.

The space in the hall was huge, but Cheng Li only glanced at it and retracted his mind, but it was the man who was sitting at the counter who walked over.

"I don't know who the two are?"

The words were only half spoken, but Jing understood what he meant, or understood the rules here, Chengli thought that the latter was more likely, but Jing didn't say anything, just stretched out her palm, and suddenly a golden flame rose out of thin air, and she held it in the palm of her hand, and then said: "Find two rooms, we will stay here for a few days." ”

"Yes, understood, villain understands, please go this way. Cheng Li noticed that the man's pupils shrank suddenly, and the expression on his face stiffened, but he quickly reacted, and an old face suddenly smiled into a chrysanthemum, and nodded and said.

The wooden staircase, but very thick, at least Cheng Li didn't hear the sound of the wood fiber cracking when he stepped on it, and it seemed that he didn't cut corners, and the thought suddenly flashed through Cheng Li.

"Did you see that? That lord just now seems to be a mage. ”

"I see that ...... too"

The sound in the lobby was getting lower and lower, and when Seungli stepped onto the floor on the third floor, he could only hear the sound of rain outside.

The shopkeeper-like figure found two rooms close to Chengli and then retreated, but when Chengli entered the room for a while, he heard someone knocking on the door outside the room, and when he opened the door, he saw a seventeen or eighteen-year-old woman kneeling outside the room.

"My lord, I'm here to tidy up the room. ”

"Oh, well. Chengli didn't know what to say, so he had to answer dryly.

Although the room is not big, it is very tidy, and the maid said that it was tidy, but in fact, it was to lay out the futon for Chengli, light the incense, and then bowed down respectfully and exited the room.

When Cheng Li was lying alone in an empty room, listening to the sound of rain outside the house that seemed to be getting denser and denser, for some reason a feeling of depression suddenly rose in his heart.

It's as if the whole world is pressing against me, and my whole heart is beating suddenly, and I can't calm down.

What's going on?

"Squeak-" The sound of sliding the door, quietly?

"Jiazuo, I'll go out first, you have a good rest here, and if you have anything to do, look for a maid. ”

"Okay. Cheng Li didn't say anything I would go with him, he couldn't say anything, and he didn't have that mood, he felt that his whole body was depressed, and his chest was stuffy, as if he couldn't breathe.

……

"Did you find it?"

"Found it, although there is only a scabbard, but this breath can't be wrong. ”

"Of course I know, can I sense the presence of the knife?"

"Of course, well, if you feel it...... Now in the southwest, there will be no mistake. ”

"This is the best, since it is a water genus, then it is up to you to go Xuanwu, anyway, except for you, a few of us don't have this kind of induction. ”

"Got it. ”
