Chapter 1860: Small Crystals
In the face of a father and daughter who think differently from ordinary people, I am a little powerless, but there are some things that it is better to explain clearly so as not to be embarrassed in the future.
So after the conversation between the father and daughter was over, I stepped forward and said, "Mr. Mavro, I hope you will allow me to clarify my relationship with Ling Yan. β
Mr. Mavro looked at me calmly and nodded, "You say." β
"Ling Yan and I are just meeting for the first time, we have no emotional foundation, and we don't know each other, is it a bit abrupt to be called boyfriend and girlfriend suddenly?"
After saying this, I glanced at Daphne and found that there was no fluctuation in her expression, and even the movement of packing up her things was not unnatural, which showed that her mood was as flat as water, without any waves, and I couldn't help but be quite surprised to see this.
Mr. Mavre, who was standing opposite me, also looked at me calmly, without any waves, but said lightly: "You don't like Daphne?" β
"This ......" I was suddenly embarrassed, thought for a moment, and said: "If it is from the perspective of a strange man and woman, Ling Yan looks delicate and has a steady momentum, I naturally like it, but from the perspective of a lover, we are just the first time to meet, and there is no emotional accumulation, how can I like it or not?" β
"So that's what you think," Mr. Mavro nodded indifferently and said, "But the little girl seems to like you very much, maybe it was love at first sight, right?" β
As he spoke, he turned to Daphne, who paused, bowed slightly, and went back to busy.
"Well, the little girl did fall in love with you at first sight," said Mr. Mavreau, "Since the little girl likes you, and you don't hate her, then get along first." β
I thought about it for a while, and then said, "With all due respect, I already have many fiancΓ©es, and I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of Ling Yan wholeheartedly in the future." β
Mr. Mavro looked at Daphne again, and Daphne paused slightly when she heard that I had multiple fiancΓ©es, but she quickly recovered and continued to pack her things quickly.
Mr. Mavro nodded, turned to me, and said, "It doesn't seem to shake Daphne's mind. β
I sighed lightly and said, "In that case, let's get along for a while and see if we are suitable for each other." β
......
......
Not only are Mavre's and daughter's brain circuits astonishing, but the materials in their shop are equally different.
It's not a pejorative, it's a compliment.
Most of the shops selling ordinary materials mainly sell cloth, leather, animal bones, ordinary iron sheets, ordinary steel sheets, and a few enchanted stones.
Mavre's shop is not limited to these, there are many small crystal blocks with regular shapes and different colors, including white, black, blue, red, gold, and even transparent!
Crouching down and poking my head out, I stared at the small crystals over and over again, and there were no features other than regular shapes, single colors, and slight magical fluctuations.
After thinking for a long time, I pointed to one of the small white crystals and asked, "What are these?" β
"It's just some ordinary crystal," Daphne explained, as she walked over to her, "a polymer of magic." β
I asked, "Where did you get this?" β
Daphne shook her head, and Mr. Mavreaux glanced at this side, and said, "The deeper deposits of the dungeon, monsters occasionally drop, but there are not many of them. β
"How do you use this thing?"
"It's a bit like an enchanter, the enchantment stone is used to attach magic attributes to equipment, and it is used to strengthen magic attributes, which is a bit similar to the role of a catalyst."
I was quite surprised, pinched a small black crystal, flipped it over and over a few times, and was very happy.
This small crystal is only the size of a thumb nail, it is not very hard, and with a little force on the finger, it can be pinched and deformed, but although it is deformed, it will not be destroyed, but will return to its original shape the moment the finger is released.
After a few pinchs, a ripple suddenly appeared in my heart, as if the gadget in front of me seemed familiar.
Suddenly, I remembered the black, irregular stone I had picked up in the dungeon, its smooth surface, its ominous glow, and its ability to melt into my left hand.
Ever since that thing melted into my left hand, there have been more and more ancient characters on my left arm, and although it has developed slowly, it has spread to my elbow so far, and it will not be long before this gauntlet can no longer cover it.
However, this is not the most distressing part of me, if it is just over the elbow and used as a tattoo, no one will be suspicious, but once they spread to the neck, or even to the face, I can't cover my face all day long, but if I don't cover it, once it is discovered by someone who cares, I am afraid that it will not only be an unsightly problem, but even threaten my life.
This is not alarmism.
Although there are very few people who have studied ancient characters, they are all royal and wealthy families, not only rich and powerful, but also have a large number of generals, and some even include many large guilds.
What big guild doesn't keep some assassins who specialize in assassination?
And what kind of royal and noble family didn't feel greedy after learning that there was such an ancient writing machine as me, and didn't want to take me for themselves, or kill and peel the skin?
You must know that the power of ancient words is extremely terrifying, and it is even said that even the goblin emperor of the year spared no effort to put together the ancient words - of course, the second half of the sentence is just a wild history of the troubadour idle and drinking wine, and there is no record in the official history.
In a word, once the information of ancient texts is leaked, I can easily get into danger.
Having said that, what can I do?
Chopped off your left arm?
But what if the ancient text emerges from elsewhere after it is cut down?
Is it possible to cut the whole body all over the body?
Every time I think about this, I feel bad, and I always sigh for a long time.
After a long sigh, I put the small black crystal back on the counter, glanced at Mr. Mavreau, who was chatting and laughing with Sherlock, pursed my lips, turned to Daphne again, and asked softly, "Have you ever seen a stone like this one before, it is also black, but the shape is irregular, and the reflected light is very uncomfortable." β
Daphne pondered for a long time, and said, "It seems that there is something similar to what you said. β
I hurriedly asked, "Is that thing sold?" β
"I don't know," Daphne thought for a moment, and said, "I'll ask my father." β
With that, she walked over to Mr. Mavreau and whispered a few questions.
Mr. Mavreaux looked up at me, hesitated, and nodded.
Daphne walked back quickly, and said, "Father agrees, let's go, I'll take you to the storeroom, and see if you can find the kind of thing you said." β
