Chapter 54: The Black Swan
The pale golden afterglow of the sunset sprinkled on the head of Luo Lan's bed, and the smell of wine and food wafting from nowhere in the air directly lured the hungry Luo Lan to wake up.
He hadn't eaten anything since last night, and he had gone through a rather fierce battle, and his stomach was actually empty for a long time, and his tumbling stomach was already violently 'protesting'.
Luo Lan made some simple disguises, because the space equipment was too attention-grabbing, he directly took out two black steel battle blades and hung them on his waist, looked at the blades that were already a little curled, sighed slightly, and then pushed the door out and walked towards the port area.
After nightfall, the main roads of Thorne are still brightly lit, and the development of magical civilization makes Thorne, a large port and trading city, equally busy at night.
The light of the large magic crystal lamp nearby reflected the entire Thorne as if it were day in the dark night, and it looked as dazzling as a dazzling pearl on the dark earth.
However, under such light, there are still many dark places that cannot be illuminated, and the "Black Swan Tavern" is such a place.
It is located in an alley at the junction of the port area and the trade area of the city of SaΓ΄ne, and the entire alley dozens of meters long is pitch black, and the base of the wall is full of some messy debris.
The alley was very dark, strangely not even a magic lamp was installed, except for a few sunstones embedded in the tavern's signboard from a distance, emitting a faint glow, a gust of wind blew, rolled up some miscellaneous confetti on the ground, scattered in all directions, the whole alley looked chilling, deep as the entrance to the abyss.
Luo Lan found that even many civilians and adventurers passing by nearby did not squint at this alley, as if there were devils from the abyss and hell living in it, Luo Lan watched at the entrance for almost a quarter of an hour, and never saw anyone step into the alley for half a step!
"I want to see if this is a Longtan Tiger's Den!" After Luo Lan groaned for a while, he smiled, pressed the handle of the knife on his waist with both hands, and walked slowly towards the tavern gate with an indifferent expression.
"Squeak~", the old and heavy wooden door of the tavern was pushed open by Luo Lan.
The lights in the tavern are quite dazzling, and the air is not as mixed as expected.
As soon as his left foot stepped into the room, Luo Lan's keen intuition made him feel a chill down his spine, and several cold gazes like sharp blades were projected at him from all over the tavern, scanning back and forth on him for a while before disappearing.
Quietly glancing at the tavern a few times, Luo Lan found that in the hall of nearly 100 square meters in the entire tavern, there were not a few tables of guests during the peak period of this kind of dining, and all the people in the hall added up, only five or six tables, more than a dozen people, they were scattered in all corners of the tavern, and there was almost no head-to-head sound in ordinary taverns.
These people are either eating and drinking with their heads down, or they are closing their eyes to recuperate, and more are bowing their heads and fiddling with their weapons, among these people, Luo Lan actually saw a magician rarely, but the guy's whole person was wrapped in a pitch-black robe, and even his head was covered with a hood, and he occupied a table alone, and he didn't know what he was doing with his head down, and he couldn't see men and women at all.
Facing the bar counter of the tavern, a dark-skinned male drow elf raised his eyes and glanced at Luo Lan, then continued to lower his head and wipe the wine glass in his hand without any reaction.
Strangely, Luo Lan looked around, but he didn't see a single waitress or waiter in the entire tavern.
"It seems that this place is indeed strange, the momentum exuded by those people around him is far superior to those wanderers last night!"
After being shocked, Luo Lan walked to the bar without squinting and gently knocked on the countertop.
Without raising his head, the drow elf asked, "What do you want?" β
The sound was as sharp and piercing as rusty gears rubbing against each other, very different from the softness of most elves, but it made people feel irritated for a while.
"Bring me something to eat first."
"First time?" After hearing Luo Lan's words, the drow elf looked up at him in surprise.
"Yes, what's the problem?"
"No wonder, wait."
After speaking, the Drow Elf glanced at Luo Lan and turned around and walked directly towards the inner hall.
It wasn't long before he brought out a plate of white bread and a plate of roast meat, and a glass of wine that looked as clear and crystal clear as wine, but as pale blue as the sea.
Pushing the dinner plate in front of Luo Lan, the elf waved his hand lazily, "Take it, let's leave after eating, this is not the place where a rookie like you should come." β
"How much?" Luo Lan didn't pay attention to the elf's words, but asked.
The elf glanced at Luo Lan and stretched out a finger, "A universal gold coin." β
βββοΌοΌ So expensive? β
Luo Lan was taken aback, you must know that because the universal gold coin is issued by the Church of the Goddess of Wealth, because it can be used throughout the continent, its purchasing power is very strong, far exceeding the gold coins issued by the Principality of Loren itself, ordinary people, even a few months may not be able to earn a universal gold coin, just this thing in front of him actually wants a universal gold coin!
"Don't forget it." The elf gestured to take the plate back.
"Wait! Who said I didn't want it? Luo Lan pushed away the elf's hand, and then took out a continental general gold coin from his arms, pressed his fingers on the gold coin and pushed it in front of the elf.
But when the elf reached out to put away the gold coin, Luo Lan pressed the gold coin on the platform with his fingertips.
"What do you mean?" The elf's face looked unpleasant, and his face sank in an instant.
"Ask you about someone!" Luo Lan stared straight at the drow elf's lake-green eyes, smiled slightly, and a fine light flashed in his eyes.
"We're not looking for people here."
"I'm looking for Quest." As soon as Luo Lan's words fell, he suddenly found that the atmosphere in the entire tavern suddenly froze.
The moment he said that name, there was silence in the tavern, and the atmosphere suddenly became extremely strange.
Even those people who were originally lowering their heads to sort out their equipment were stiff at the moment, and one of the guys even slipped the long sword that was wiping in his hand, and almost fell directly to the ground and pierced into his instep.
The entire tavern was quiet at the moment, and even if a needle dropped on the ground, it was estimated that it could be heard clearly.
It was as if the name 'Quest' had some magic that made them all feel terrified.
"Who are you! Or rather, who told you to come!? The Drow Elf raised his head, frowned, and looked at Luo Lan for a long time before asking.
In his opinion, this guy in front of him is only close to bronze at the peak of black iron, and it should be impossible to know that adult!
However, although the face could be seen at a glance in simple disguise, it was still possible to see the original appearance from the general outline, as if he had seen it somewhere, but strangely, no matter how much he recalled, he could not remember it at all.
Luo Lan shrugged his shoulders, reached out and took out the ring that Ron Tarnath had given him from his bosom, and handed it to the Drow Elf.
But the moment the drow elf saw the ring, his eyes erupted like a volcano, and he burst out with a terrifying light that was almost like substance!
The robe on his body was windless, and in an instant, a terrifying momentum far surpassed that of silver, and even gradually approached the peak of gold, and a terrifying whirlwind blew in the entire tavern hall in an instant.
However, just by suppressing the momentum, for Luo Lan, whose physical fitness is almost close to silver at the moment, it has no effect at all.
"The pinnacle of gold?" Luo Lan pursed his lips secretly disdainfully, if this was in his previous life, he could trample a large group of people to death by stomping his feet casually. When his attributes are now at their peak, it would be a dream to overwhelm him with his momentum alone!
A few minutes passed, Luo Lan still maintained a faint smile on her face, staring at the elf without saying a word, her eyes were like a deep pool, calm, without the slightest fluctuation and fear.
βββοΌ Who are you?! β
The elf's face was full of disbelief, and his eyes almost popped out of his sockets.
He didn't expect that the guy on the other side was not affected by his terrifying momentum in the slightest, just like a reef in the raging tide, letting you storm and the waves were raging, and he stood still.
This situation is almost never encountered in the memory of the elves! Even if he is a gold-level powerhouse, he will be affected a lot under his momentum.
Like the rest of the tavern, most of them were now trembling and looking pained, and some even had a faint sweat on their foreheads.
However, only the magician who was shrouded in black robes, because the whole person was surrounded by black robes, he couldn't see any changes.
Could this guy in front of him be the legendary super master of 'pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger'!?
However, just that guy, with a smirk on his face, doesn't look like it at all.
"Are you Quest?" Luo Lan glanced at the elf calmly and said lightly.
ββ¦β¦ I'm not. The drow froze for a moment, and replied.
"Then tell him that I want to see him, and that the owner of the ring asked me to come." After Luo Lan finished speaking, she directly picked up the dinner plate on the table, walked to a table not far from the bar, sat down and began to gobble up.
The elf's expression had clearly told him that the elf named 'Quest' should be in this tavern at this moment!
The momentum on the Drow elf was retracted, and after watching Luo Lan gobble up, he hesitated for a while, but still gritted his teeth, picked up the ring and walked towards the inner hall.
