An old-looking wooden tower in the southeast corner of Fordshire, and although it looks very inconspicuous, no one dares to underestimate its existence, this is the rune society branch of Fordshire.

On the top floor of the tower, in a room with simple and rustic decoration, an old man with a white beard and white robe was sitting at his desk, staring at a crude porcupine skin.

With the sound of thumping footsteps, the original tranquility was completely disrupted, and a thin old man in the same white robe appeared at the door of the room panting.

"Howard, why are you calling me here in such a hurry, I didn't know that I was working on a new rune recently. The thin old man said very unkindly.

"Mickey, come and see this rune, I'm sure you'll be behind all that bullshit research you've ever thought about when you read it. The white-bearded old man named Howard said with a smile as his eyes narrowed into a line.

Mickey looked at Howard's smile and shuddered for no reason, the two of them had been friends for nearly half a hundred years, how could they not know each other's temperament.

He walked quickly to the table, but he glanced at the porcupine skin on the table casually, and could no longer take his eyes off.

After a long time, Mickey asked in a trembling voice, "Old Huo, where did this thing come from?"

Howard spread his hands, "It was on my desk early this morning, and by the way, along with the runes, there was a letter. ”

"Letter?" said Mickey, a little confused, and looked at a rough yellowed piece of paper.

"Hello Dear Rune Association Branch President, I have consigned some shoddy runes in the Chamber of Commerce, if you are interested, you can negotiate with the Gatling Chamber of Commerce to buy them. Oh yes, if the Chamber of Commerce is willing to sell. ”

The letter was short, with few numbers, no signatures, and no signatures.

Mickey was not as calm as the white-bearded old man Howard, and immediately slapped the table, "Hey, isn't it very simple, let's go to the Chamber of Commerce and ask first." If there were such runes, I would have to buy them all out of my own pocket. ”

Howard sighed, "After all these years, you're still so grumpy. We're definitely going to the Chamber of Commerce, but you didn't see that last sentence, I always think it's a bit intriguing, I can make it clear to you in advance, don't blow your beard and stare at the table when the time comes. ”

Mickey scratched his head in embarrassment, smiled and nodded.

After a while, the two of them had already appeared in front of the Gatling Chamber of Commerce, and the guards at the door saw the two old men from a distance, and one of them immediately turned around and entered the hall in a hurry.

Soon, a short, stocky middle-aged man trotted out of the chamber of commerce.

"Haha, President Howard, Vice President Mickey, why do you two have time to come to our Chamber of Commerce today, if you need anything, just find someone to give you an order, how can you bother the two of you to go in person. The short and fat middle-aged man had a bright smile on his face, and the fat flesh squeezed his eyes into a line.

"Haha, it's not anything particularly important, I just want to come and have a look, why isn't Emok in charge welcome?" Howard replied with a smile.

"How can you not be welcome, those two are please, I will personally lead the way for the two. "Emok doesn't think that these two are just looking at it casually, and they must have nothing to do without going to the Three Treasures Palace. But he didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, because the status of the two was so high that even the prince of the Saint-Franc Empire had to give three points of courtesy when he saw it.

"I heard that the Chamber of Commerce has recently received a new batch of runes, I wonder if it can open the eyes of the two of us?"

Emok smiled awkwardly: "Isn't the two elders making fun of me, what other runes can make the two of you open your eyes?" However, recently the headquarters did send a batch of attack runes, and it happened to be displayed here for consignment in the past two days. Maybe it's because there are less than five days to go, Cologne College is about to enroll, and there are a lot of outsiders in the city, and the headquarters may have done this with this in mind. ”

"Attack runes?" Mickey glanced at Howard beside him, and immediately became interested, and then grabbed Emok's hand, "Hurry up, take me to see." ”

Mickey's agitation startled Emok, but he felt more and more that something was wrong. Quickly led the two of them to the rune display area, called the attendants on the side, and asked all the deacons and shopping guides to gather in the rune area. He himself searched in his mind for something special in the middle of this batch of runes.

The Chamber of Commerce is very large, but the arrangement is very rigorous and orderly, the main hall on the first floor is divided into two halls on the left and right, the left is the entrance to the main entrance, which is basically the usual weapons used by warriors and magicians, staffs and the like, and on the right side are some potions, runes and other consumables.

Several people soon came to the rune area, and at this time, several deacons who received the message had also hurried over, and each deacon was followed by three or four shopping guides, all of whom were graceful young girls.

Emok motioned for a few deacons to stand behind him, then opened a glass display case and said, "Two lords, this is the latest batch of new beginner and intermediate attack runes. ”

Mickey couldn't wait to pick up a rune made of Warcraft leather and look at it, but he couldn't help frowning when he looked at it.

When Howard saw this scene, he also picked up a rune, but he only glanced at it to know that it was wrong, and suddenly remembered the last sentence on the letter, and said: "Steward Emek, the relationship between our association and the chamber of commerce has always been very good, and the cooperation is also close, you say yes?"

Emok was stunned for a moment, and when he saw Mickey's frown, he felt that something was wrong, and now that he heard Howard say that, he felt even more problematic.

"Lord Howard, the cooperation between the Chamber of Commerce and the Association has always been indistinguishable from each other, is there any misunderstanding between us?" Although Emok is also a senior member of the Chamber of Commerce, if it is really because of his negligence that these two old men who have a pivotal position in the sub-professional association are dissatisfied with the Chamber of Commerce, then he can know with his toes that the Chamber of Commerce will definitely take him to the door to protect the cooperation between the Chamber of Commerce and the Association.

Howard knew that Mickey was straight-tempered, and when he saw that he was about to speak, he ripped off the corner of his shirt and signaled not to speak. He also knew in his heart that the relationship between the association and the chamber of commerce was quite delicate and had to be dealt with.

Howard took out a porcupine skin from his pocket and handed it to Emok, "Today I received a very special mid-level attack rune, supposedly from your Chamber of Commerce. I was curious to come and see, if the Chamber of Commerce is willing to cut love, I can buy all of them at a high price on behalf of the Association. ”
