Suppressing the excitement that was about to erupt in our hearts, the four of us found a restaurant called Grimm Empire Style Steak in a shop on the edge of the free market. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info This is also in line with our thoughts at the moment, find a quiet place and count the money slowly.

From the outside, you would never have imagined that the inside was decorated like this: on the four walls of the restaurant was a panoramic oil painting 80 meters long and 6 meters high. The whole painting depicts an autumn scene outside the city.

After entering the restaurant, I walked around the screen blocking the front door and entered the restaurant, and my whole vision was turned upside down, and the twenty-meter-long wall opposite the main entrance was painted with a castle that could not be seen at a glance, as if we were standing on a high hill looking down on the whole city. I could feel the magnificence of the whole city, and how small the Thunder Rhino caravan was waiting at the gates of the city under the forty or fifty-meter-high walls, preparing to cross the hundred-meter-wide moat into the city. The architecture of the whole city is very close to the Baroque architecture, and I can even see every block of the city, with the pedestrians and the variety of shops, and behind the transparent windows it seems that there should be fine goods, I guess maybe beautiful dresses. The left wall is covered by a rushing and roaring river, which disappears from west to east at the end of the view, the huge waves roar on the wide river, the hundred-meter-long boats can only struggle with the waves on the rough river, and countless salmon more than one meter long are caught in the hundreds of meters of fishing nets, and the faces of the fishermen on the boats are full of joy. On the wall on the right side are endless mountains and fields, with golden wheat fields and fruit-bearing golden apple trees as far as the eye can see. Oh my god, I wonder why I've been eating damn hard black bread all the way?

"Ahh......h This seems to be the Galloping Horse River in the painting, this should be the city of Sloit, the northernmost province of the Grimm Empire, I never knew it was so beautiful! Jia, when the caravan passes through the province of Sloyt, we must go and have a good look!" Qige was also infected by this huge panoramic picture, and exclaimed.

I looked back and saw a painting on the wall at the entrance of the Pai Plateau with snow-capped mountains hidden in the clouds, the meandering White Elephant River and the Benma River flowing around the northern foothills of the Pai Plateau converged under the snow-capped mountains, and the south bank of the entire river was a large wheat field. I was also excited to look at everything in front of me, as if I was in the middle of it. I wonder if this is where I'm going to live in the future? This city is really as big as Uncle Fred said.

"Well, Kiki, I heard that the Sloit Ivory Tower School of Magic here has the most complete library in the Grimm Empire, we can go and check it out. I continued, my eyes not taking my eyes off the beautiful picture on the wall, as if eating had become less important at this moment.

Kuz looked confused beside me, and he looked at me with some gloom, as if to ask me again: You are going to leave after all, you are going to live in a human city, are you?

"Distinguished guests from the human realm, if you don't mind, please choose a suitable seat, sit back and enjoy slowly, we have the best golden cider from the Sloitt province of the Grimm Empire and home-brewed barley wine, with the roasted devil antelope leg and white bread recommended by today's kitchen, it should be very good. An orc attendant dressed in a well-dressed leather suit stepped out and said to us.

At this time, I noticed that there were more than 30 tables in the whole restaurant, and there were some square wooden tables made of four people and six people against the wall, and only in the center of the hall were there round tables. The four of us chose to sit down at a table of four in the corner, ordered a simple white bread and four roast lamb shanks, and sent the orc waiter away.

"Do you think the owner of the magic potion shop will regret it, I always think our ore is not worth that much money!" "I voiced my concerns, I don't want to get in trouble in this town, I've been in a bit too much trouble lately.

Kig sat across from me, looking at Kuz with interest. Kuz and I sat on one side, across from Katerina. He looked very restrained at the moment, and he didn't even dare to look up at Katarina, and his face was flushed. When I asked, she replied, "No, he may think that this ore will not make much money, but he will not regret it." I'm sure that the Emperor Amethyst in these ores is refined, and if it is ground into Emperor Amethyst powder, it will be worth almost twenty gold coins, and you have to trust the eyes of professionals. In addition, I would like to remind you that we made money from our first investment, and I contributed technology, and the funds you contributed were shared by us before. ”

"Ahh

Kig laid the money bag down on the table, divided the twenty gold coins into three parts, Caterina got four, Kuz and I got eight, and she put the rest away herself, and said to us, "I will ask for this meal, and the change will not be divided." ”

Kuz and I looked at the eight gold coins in front of us with mixed feelings, but we didn't expect that Qige would help us solve the dilemma in front of us in such a way, such a large sum of money can almost make an ordinary family of three live a generous life for three years and five years without any problem. According to the current market price, even if you live in a human city, if you don't have to worry about where to live, fifteen silver coins a month can make an ordinary family of three live well, and you can't guarantee that you can eat meat every day, but you can guarantee that you will have white bread to eat every day, and you can eat beef once a few days once a day. And a moment ago, we were still struggling to raise fifteen silver coins.

"Jia, is this what we get?" Kutz rubbed his eyes vigorously in disbelief.

I put my arm around his shoulders and said, "Well, this is the return on our investment, hehe, is Kiki a beneficiator?"

"Hey, I said that you only have your orc friends in your eyes, did you never take me seriously?" Qige glared at me angrily and said, "If you had asked me earlier, you should have known a long time ago, or if you only went to my room once, you would have seen my bottles and cans, I am not a concentrator, I am also a junior potions master, as a potions master, if you can't even recognize the materials to make magic potions, it is the biggest dereliction of duty." Actually, I was going to take some rich ores from the Mithril Mine and melt some Mithril Bars out, which is the fastest way I can make money at the moment. I'm naturally sensitive to the magical elements in ores. It's just that I didn't expect to find these rubies associated ore on the stall, and I didn't expect it to contain imperial amethyst, which is our luck, and it feels really good to make money. ”

"Are you a magic apothecary?, and you're going to make wound potions?" I asked, a little excited.

Kig gave me a blank look and said, "You can be quiet, I can hear me." It's kind of my secret, and I don't want the whole team and the company to know about it. But then again, I can only make the worst-level secondary life potion, and to refine a bottle of such a life potion, do you know how many hemostatic herbs and silver leaf grasses are needed? ”

Kig turned his head to stare at Kuz, squinted his eyes, and said, "Your little orc friend seems to be very interested in my maid, but you tell him that from now on, we are teammates in a team, and I announce that Katerina and I will officially join your team, and will follow you into the wilderness of the northern foot of the Pai Plateau to hunt and experience, I don't want to die in the wasteland because my teammates are distracted, wouldn't that be a very unjust death?"

"But...... But we can't even take care of ourselves, and it's not completely dangerous to go into the wasteland, and I can't guarantee your safety!" I sweated on my forehead, and thought to myself, what can these two delicate ladies do? This is not an ordinary camping, we are going to survive in the wild, even if there are few advanced Warcraft in these areas, but ordinary Warcraft also eat meat, right?

Kuzi on the side to be honest, it is a bit big in Yali Mountain. In fact, Caterina's curiosity is just the curiosity of the nature of a werewolf, the orcs can never suppress their own nature, but many times they will rely on their nature to do things, whether they like it or not is just a thought, Caterina's attraction to Kuz is almost the same as the attraction of a rabbit to a wolf, this is innate, no one can say that if you don't think about it, you don't have to think about it at all, I know that Kuzi has been looking for a way to control his nature, because I am his friend. Kuzi muttered "We're teammates, we're teammates, we're teammates!" and then gradually calmed down, and when he looked up at Kig and Caterina again, it was much more natural, but he was still nervous and couldn't even speak. I gave Kutz an encouraging look.

Kige sneered at me and said, "Whoever uses you to protect will not be able to tell who will protect whom." I just want to go into the wasteland to find some elementary magic herbs and magic ores, how can it be dangerous? You don't know that magic apothecary is actually a life profession of magician, right? A seventh-level magician apprentice joins your team, don't you feel honored now, come on! I'll give you a chance to kiss my toes!"

Kige's jokes between us are getting bigger and bigger. It's always unscrupulous, and I can't take it anymore. She is usually quiet and calm in front of outsiders, like a pool of autumn water without waves, and there is a faint mist floating on the water surface in late autumn, which is always the feeling of being unclear and unpredictable. But after really contacting her and becoming her friend, I found out that she was completely an otaku, a rotten girl who likes to dig into other people's privacy. She would often ask me embarrassing questions, and I would sometimes ignore her in anger, or just shout: Why don't you ask your brother this question?

She would always ask me with confidence: Are we still friends?

Qige's temperament is sometimes directly related to her dress, just like when she wears a formal dress or court skirt in a caravan, at that time she will put on makeup very formally, dress herself up in the city, and want to become a heartthrob, at that time she is a little goblin, a vixen full of infinite charm, at this time she often has a quiet and calm aristocratic temperament like an iceberg that rejects people thousands of miles away, and her dancing posture is more like a weird and bewitching flower in hell, beautiful but will also make people sink into the sea of desire. Even if I'm idle, I don't usually go back to watch Kige dance, it's too sadistic.

When she usually dresses up, she deliberately hides her appearance, and at this time her whole person is more accessible. Kige doesn't like to talk to strangers, she prefers to stand quietly and without a sense of existence, but she often treats familiar people like a housemaiden who wants to die without shocking, and at this time she didn't forget to say to me: "But it's you, you don't go to the wasteland with your bare hands without any weapons, right?"

When Kig said that she was a magic apothecary, I was wondering if she was a magician, and when I heard her say this, I couldn't help but wonder if she wanted to ask: since you are a magician, why don't you go to the magic academy? Now I feel that Kig may be a good teammate!

I couldn't help but wonder: why did I meet so many mages in this caravan? I even wondered if the Grimm Empire mages really wanted to be as few as others said?
