Chapter 150: The style of genius is always eccentric
"Ha, no matter what anyone else says, I now think Jeffries is the best city to be. ”
In the tavern, John the Dwarf said with a shake of his beard as he looked at the drinking machinery that automatically refilled himself.
After departing from Delport, they sped up their journey and arrived at Jeffries not long after.
This city of mechanical and magical carvings is full of surprises and novelties for those who have never been here, as if they have arrived in another world.
"Everywhere there's wine, you'll say that. Jill still sat in the far corner, spitting out her snake-like tongue.
Lily was holding a magic book and looking at it, she was already surprised by her teammates.
Lorna also ordered a glass of wine and sat at the table, she has been a little silent these days, and rarely comes to talk to Hatsu, which may be a good sign.
Mann, on the other hand, was showing Hatsu casting a spell on a silver coin, making it float.
I heard that this was a levitation technique he had newly learned from Lily, but at first he blushed and fiddled with the silver coin for a long time, but he didn't see the slightest movement of the silver coin.
They would stay in the tavern for a while, as arranged by the Merchant Guild, and all the merchants involved in the trade had contacted Mr. Marcel, who had purchased the Magic Crystal.
The merchant waited at this tavern, while Marcel would send his servants to buy the goods.
Mann didn't know much about Marcell, and it should be said that most of the merchants involved in this transaction didn't know much either. It's just that I heard that he used to be a master of glyphs, and even served as a consultant at the Academy of Magic, but the carvings he studied were very strange, and they were generally obscure carvings that not too many people could understand.
And he had no interest in teaching students or anything like that, which led to his dismissal from the Academy of Magic not long afterward, and he has been living in seclusion in the city of Jeffries ever since.
At first glance, Mann fiddled with the silver coin for a long time without floating it, so he casually raised his hand to the silver coin.
The next moment, the silver coin was lifted into the air.
The first evil can be released from the body at will, and can form or move things, and if she wishes, she can go unseen.
So in the eyes of others, Chu just waved her hand, and the silver coin floated out of thin air, just like she casually performed a levitation technique.
This made the people in the Silver and White Sword team look at it with some surprise, although the levitation technique is only a simple low-level spell, but it is also very difficult to achieve the degree of casting the spell at will without reciting the spell, at least Lily can't do it, her magic power can't support her to directly use magic to connect magic.
This can be done at least at the level of a high-level magician, which is rare in both the Adventurer's Guild and the Academy of Magic.
A high-level magician is a very important resource in the Adventurer's Guild, and the price to hire her will definitely not be less than a few gold coins, and in the Academy of Magic, a high-level magician is enough to work as a teacher.
Therefore, when they didn't recite the spell to release the "magic", the people of the Silver and White Sword were a little frightened, they knew that Chu was a cultivator, but this was the first time they had seen Chu Shi.
But then, they thought that it might have come from the Hiscama family, and they were relieved. If the people of that family are not strong enough, how can they garrison that barren land?
You must know that the border soldiers led by the Hiscama family are the strongest army in the empire, and the strength of their family can be imagined.
If they still had a little doubt, now they are more certain that they came from that family in the first place.
As for why Chu left Hiscama, this is up to them to guess, maybe because of business, or maybe it was traveling, or maybe even running away from home, who knows.
Although the Hiskama family had made an oath to stay in the west, it was only the patriarch who could not leave.
Unlike the members of the Silver Sword Squad, Mann wasn't surprised by Hatsu's move, after all, after seeing Hiscama's battle, floating a silver coin was indeed a small thing.
As a summoner, he naturally knew how to do it at the beginning, and it couldn't be magic anyway.
"Ahh He leaned down on the table and rubbed his hair.
"I've worked hard. ”
"I saw you sleeping with a magic book the other day. ”
Hatsu ruthlessly debunks Mann's lies.
"Mann. Lily puffed out her mouth and looked at Mann, who had lent him the book and had not let him sleep in his arms.
"Uh. Mann scratched his cheek in embarrassment and said with a wry smile, "I was just too tired that day." ”
While a few people were sitting at the table chatting, a figure walked in outside the tavern door. The reason why it is said to be a figure is because what comes in is indeed not a person.
It was a humanoid machine, it was quite delicately made, with fine magical patterns on its body, and its hands and feet were not much different from those of real humans, except that it had no skin, and what was exposed was cold machinery and intricate carvings. In the center of its back is a large magic crystal, providing the magic that supports its movements.
The arrival of the humanoid machine made the merchants in the tavern who were waiting for news of Marcel with Mann look in amazement, they had never seen such a magical carving in any way.
They have reason to be surprised, because this is indeed a technology that has not yet been announced, this is a carved pattern developed by Marcel alone, and so far, he should be the only one who has mastered it.
It is undeniable that he is indeed a genius of magical carving. He even dared to expose his unique carvings, and he did not worry about others learning from them, because most carves could not read his carvings at all.
"Thank you for coming all the way from afar, and allow me to extend my heartfelt greetings to you on behalf of my host, Marcel. We're sorry for the long time you've been waiting because of the large number of guests we have had recently. ”
The carved patterns on the humanoid machine lit up slightly, and it bowed down in an elegant manner, like a true aristocratic servant.
From its words, it can be heard that several groups of businessmen have been here, and there is no way to do it, who let the news released by Marcel be an unlimited purchase.
"Oh, it doesn't matter, we didn't wait long. ”
A middle-aged man dressed as a businessman said loudly, saying that he didn't care.
"But are all Mr. Marcell's servants like you?"
His eyes lit up as he looked at the humanoid machine, and it was clear that he was more interested in this new carved artifact, which might be a deal.
But the humanoid machine didn't answer his question, just turned around and said.
"Now, then, I will take you to my master, Mr. Marcell. ”
The merchant frowned, obviously unhappy with the feeling of being ignored, but he quickly discovered why.
The humanoid machine could only operate in a prescribed manner, and it had no intelligence or consciousness of its own, so it could not answer his questions.
