Chapter 142: Delusion is another manifestation of intuition in general
After Mann and Chu left the Heathkama, they went all the way south, and on the way Mann found a city to join the Mainland Merchants' Union, and the way to join the union was very simple, just pay a gold coin entrance fee.
In addition to the unique epaulettes and clothing that you can get by joining the Merchants' Union, you will also be able to share the news of the Chamber of Commerce, and it is clear that a long-term and reliable source is definitely worth a gold coin for any merchant. Therefore, most of the merchants on the mainland were willing to join the merchants' union, and gradually the epaulettes of the merchants' union became a symbol of the merchant's status.
Mann had wanted this epaulette for a long time, and he was even reluctant to wear it when he first got it, so he wiped it in his hand every day, and only recently began to wear it on his shoulders.
He also bought two space props for himself and Chu, well, this is also the standard configuration of walking on the continent, he didn't buy it before because he really didn't have too much money, and now he has more money on hand, and Mann is not stingy anymore. He bought two space waist packs, which could not be stored in a large capacity, and could not hold goods and goods, but it was far enough to hold coins.
In short, when they were ready for all this, they had already walked a lot of roads, and arrived at a surrounding city in the south of the kingdom, Lovelov.
As soon as he arrives in the city, Mann goes to the city's merchant union branch to learn about the latest trading houses.
In fact, the union did make a big difference, and Mann did get the news he wanted. There was a man named Marcel who was buying an unlimited amount of magic crystals, twenty silver coins each, in the city of Jeffries in the southeastern part of the kingdom.
The distance between Jeffries and Lovelov is not close, but if it is an unlimited acquisition, there should be no need to worry about distance and time.
On top of that, the average market price of a magic crystal is only about fifteen silver coins, which means that one magic crystal can net five small silver coins in one trip like this, which is not a small amount of money, and it is completely worth the journey.
As for what this Marcel wants so many magic crystals to do, this is not something that Mann needs to consider, he is a businessman, he just needs to know that the price of this magic crystal will not increase in a short period of time, and this price will not be profitable.
Men quickly made up his mind, and with all the money he and Hatsu had in his hands, he bought a full hundred and twenty magic crystals, for which he also bought two more carriages to fit the magic crystals.
Considering that someone would have to drive the two extra carriages, Mann arrived at the Adventurers' Guild to release a mission. He doesn't have a lot of requirements, as long as the person who comes can drive the horse workshop.
But what he didn't expect was that he was taken over before he could send out the task, or even before he had time to make a request.
Are all adventurers so difficult nowadays that they have to rush to take on any task?
Looking at the woman who was solemnly about to take on his task, Mann couldn't help but think like this.
"That. Mann spread his hands and hesitantly said to the blonde woman in front of him, "Do you need me to explain the mission requirements?"
"Of course. Lorna nodded heroically, looking capable and reliable.
Considering the problem of their own captain, the Silver Sword Squad originally wanted to offer to refuse the mission.
But when they listened to Mann's account of the mission, they took it anyway.
No way, this task is just too tempting.
You only need to go with Jeffries to get four large silver coins, that is, eighty small silver coins, and there will not be too many dangers on the way, and the journey will not be long, at the speed of three carriages, it will take a month or two at most.
Such an easy and lucrative mission is not encountered once in a few months, and it is an opportunity that must be seized by a team of down-and-out adventurers like them.
After a brief introduction to themselves, the Silver Sword team took on Mann's mission.
Mann and Hatsuya get to know their members in general.
The swordsman Lorna, a very capable and cheerful female swordsman (at least it seems), also seems to be reliable, and her slightly rough palm speaks to her years of using the sword.
Mage Lily, a shy little girl, only seventeen years old, is a student who has just graduated from the mage academy, although her actual combat ability is not very strong, but she is quite proficient in basic magic.
John the Dwarf, like all Dwarves, was a Stormtrooper who loved to drink, and his massive warhammer was his weapon, enough to crush rocks and walls.
Lizardman Jill, as a usually taciturn lizardman thief, has a lot to say, at least he can clearly explain what he means.
"So, Lorna!"
On the way to the carriage, John the Dwarf glanced at Hatsu and Mann, who were walking in front, hammered the armor on Lorna's waist, and said in a suppressed voice.
"This time, you have to restrain yourself no matter what, my wine money in the second half of the year will depend on this mission!"
"Goo. Lorna looked at Chu's back and swallowed a mouthful of saliva, as if she was enduring something, looked away in pain, and said with her eyes closed.
"I see. ”
"Hmph. The lizardman who walked on the side snorted softly: "The desires of the flesh are all vain. ”
Originally, she was still calming herself down and making up her mind, and Lorna couldn't help but argue in a low voice.
"You know, it's called the pursuit of beauty. ”
"Okay, Sister Lorna, it's not good to be heard. Lily carefully took Lorna's hand and reminded.
"Ahh Lorna replied with a sigh of surrender.
The Silver Sword Team whispered in the back, but what they didn't know was that what they said was clearly heard by Chu, after all, Chu's hearing was also several times that of ordinary people, but Chu didn't understand what these people were saying.
She didn't understand what restraint, what fleshy desires, and what pursuit of beauty. But she knew that if these people had any bad intentions, she would not hesitate to give each of them a sword.
"Alright. Mann jumped into the first carriage, he was still used to the first carriage, and when he got into the carriage, he looked back at the Silver Sword and the others.
"As we said, you'll be able to drive the carriage, right?"
"You can rest assured of the dwarf's driving skills. John the Dwarf rolled over into one of the carriages on his left and took hold of the reins.
"Ah, well, I don't have a problem either. Lorna, who was still distracted, was woken up by Mann's words, and got into the last carriage with Lily.
The convoy began to move, and at first he sat in the carriage and moved his body uncomfortably.
She still felt that the atmosphere was a little strange, especially the female swordsman named Lorna, and she didn't know why the other party's eyes seemed to be focused on her body, especially on her lower body, and seemed to be wandering around her legs all the time.
This made her have a rare feeling of chilling in her heart, as if she was being targeted by something bad.
Probably, it's an illusion.
Thinking like this in a cold sweat that didn't exist at first, he urged the carriage.
