Mei Mi called twice vividly.

"It turned out to be a cat," said one of the apprentices.

"Great," said another apprentice, "I brought small dried fish." ”

"You can't just carry that stinky stuff with you just because your mentor won't allow you to have a cat. ”

"Dried fish doesn't stink at all," said the apprentice, "much more fragrant than the cheese we had for breakfast." Come on, you can touch his head while I feed him. ”

Then they came around the corner.

This is illogical!The priest of Flo said in horror how could a vicious and wicked thief apprentice like a cat!

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Let's move the clock forward a little bit.

Entering the current White Tower can be said to be easy or difficult.

Just like what the dwarf McGee heard from the merchants, there are very few serious merchants in the White Tower these days, but in a way, it can also be said to be a market, or half a black market, where all the Bullland Fortress or the rulers and administrators have not gone mad, and where there are still temples of Tyre and other good gods in the city, you can see them - evil spell-casting materials, dangerous forbidden potions, despicable weapons, humanoids, humanoids...... The reason why half of it is still left is because the priest of Rosada is still there.

The catastrophe caused by the clean water of the Sanctuary of Rosada has faded in the minds of the inhabitants of the White Tower. Or rather, something more terrible than that is happening at any time, so that the deep imprint that once left on the hearts of the inhabitants of the White Tower is no longer so vivid - they were once rich, and now their money is either stolen, robbed, or forcibly deprived by heavy taxes, they were once beautiful, but thieves will rush into your house without fear. Take your daughters and wives away, and if you have a little money left, you may be able to bring them back in a few days, but you will bring back either broken souls or bruised bodies, and you may not be able to redeem them a second time;

They either managed to escape from the White Tower, or gradually gathered to live around the sanctuary in Rosada. Without a house, they would feel safe and warm even if they were lying directly on the ground, and the priests of Rosada protected them, repelling more than once thieves who wanted to take away children and women, and the soldiers of the lords, or rather the jackals that aided the abuse, would threaten and intimidate civilians and priests almost every few days, and if it weren't for the last accident, the priests sent by the main compound of Rosada would have been more determined than ordinary priests. With the relationship of faith and piety and strength, the last pure land in the White Tower has long since disappeared.

But that doesn't mean the White Tower is dying. To be more precise, the White Tower is even more prosperous than it used to be, and even without the goods of the elves, it still has the allure to attract merchants to come at all costs.

Now the most popular thing about the White Tower is nothing else, it is a special kind of tobacco that gives off a sweet aroma when lit. There are few other spices that can match this fragrance, and smoking it can also relieve pain, cure various diseases, and if there is no smoke pipe, then remove a small portion. It can also be taken by immersion in water or mixed with food, the most regrettable thing is that it is a little toxic, and there are people who overdose who have encountered misfortune, but it is not its fault, is it?

Almost all of the fields around the Partridge Hill and the White Tower were cultivated with this tobacco, and the "Fineweb" guild controlled every line of its line, from seed to finished product, and they collected tobacco from serfs and commoners at extremely low prices, and then sold them at a more suitable price, in fact, it was not impossible to sell this tobacco even if it was more expensive, but unfortunately their leader had said a long time ago that their first thing to do was to make sure that everyone had tasted this tobacco before.

Its gains are not in months, but in years.

The first to taste this tobacco and perceive the benefits were the mercenaries, who all had old wounds that were painful and tingling on rainy days, and they found that the pain that seemed to be able to tear the whole stomach was less pronounced when they were hungry.

Then there were serfs and some unscrupulous civilians.

No one noticed the growing popularity of this tobacco, only Ryette knew that more and more merchants came to buy it, and she also offered free tobacco in Flo's temple, which the priest claimed could turn an unreincapable man into a boar or a bear - look at the young men who would take the last coin from their parents, but there were so many men obsessed with the priest that who knew what they were sinking into? Is it Reverend Flo's plump embrace, or is it the sweet-smelling tobacco?

All the merchants who were willing to come to the White Tower to buy tobacco were welcome, they didn't enter the White Tower together as Gavin had planned, because their professions were so different, how do you explain a caravan with knights, mages, thieves, Rosada and Flo priests? Mei Mi entered alone as a wandering prostitute, and although she had to give the guard a taste of honey, and the thieves who were strolling through the streets did come up to intercept her when they saw her, but instead of suspecting her intentions, he wanted to inquire about her whereabouts, and he invited Mei Mi to drink a glass of honey wine, and promised to come to her room in the evening.

Dressed as a mercenary, along with the mage Gavin, they pretended to be merchants who had come with the mercenaries to buy tobacco, and they changed slightly to look unremarkable, and the guards were forced to extort two silver coins by the scorching afternoon sun.

Glenn the Thief is more complicated, because the White Tower is already in the lair of the Thin Web Guild. They don't welcome thieves who don't belong to them, so Glenn finds an identity from the tavern in the Dragonfire Islands, the thief has been recruited, but by mistake, and finally he runs to the Dragonfire Islands and opens a tavern, and the business is actually very good.

He gave GΓΌlen the name of the solicitor. The man was dead, so GΓΌlen didn't have to worry about someone exposing him, and as soon as he entered the White Tower, he showed his hand, reported the name, and found a room on the outskirts of the guild.

What happened next was a little frightening, and although the female warlock had left a message for Cremar to go to the Tower to win back his friends, in fact, Leona and Baldwin were imprisoned in the prison of the "Fine Web" guild, and Leona was given special privileges. She had a room, though no more than six feet long and wide, and windowless, with only a wooden door with iron hinges and reinforcements, and lackluster furniture, chairs and tables fixed to the floor, and the only bed uncomfortably covered with shaggy bear skin, among other things. There was also a bottle of interesting fragrant pea flowers on the table.

Leona had asked for water, if they had brought in a jug or a jug. It was very dangerous to put it on the princess, but what those people sent in was actually peaches with the pits removed, and at this time the peaches could not be said to be ripe, but the one that Leona got was basically ripe, and it was almost necessary to be careful in her hand, and it might melt away at the slightest touchβ€”the solid food was cheese and bread. The bread is white and delicate, not at all the kind of black bread mixed with sawdust that can be used as a stick.

But her room is still a room after all, not a dungeon.

So Mei Mi and the others first found Leona, and the princess was in good shape. But at the moment when they left the room, the scene in front of them suddenly turned upside down, Mei Mi and Leona were thrown into a dark passage with a rancid smell, the passage was sticky and slippery, walking on it would fall if they were not careful, they finally climbed through a broken road, and found a small door that could be opened, but at the moment of walking out, the corridor where they were walked into two little little guys who were still a little childish, their short robes showed that they were only thieves apprentices, Mei Mi immediately pushed the small door desperately, wanting to retreat to the dark passage, the gods were on it, this door could only be opened once, Leona helped Mei Mi work hardBut her strength was much greater than that of Memi, and with a dull sound, the small door unexpectedly broke from the hinge, and Memi sat down on the ground with a thud.

This kind of movement wants to continue to be unknown and is purely to cover her ears and steal the bell, and Mei Mi actually learned to bark twice in a panic.

As we saw at the beginning, two thieves came with dried fish, and they didn't see the cat, only two stupid women with dirty faces.

"I thought it was a cat. One of the thieves' apprentices said angrily that he had taken the dried fish back into his pocket and replaced it with a dagger.

"Isn't that a cat?" his companion licked his lips and smiled wickedly to indicate that he might no longer be a child: "Wild cats at our disposal......"

Leona knocked on the wooden door he was holding in the face, and if he couldn't find a good priest, the thief apprentice might be the second "you-know-who".

The thief's apprentice, who had prepared a small dried fish for the cat, was startled, and he quickly raised his dagger to stab at Memi, but found that the dagger could not penetrate the tender skin anyway, and the priest of Frow grinned at him, grabbed his wrist, and violently parted, and the apprentice's dagger immediately pierced into his own lower abdomen, and he immediately shouted sharply.

"Let's go!" Leona shouted, and then she said, "Oh, shit. ”

An adult male, a thief was rushing from the other end of the corridor quickly, Leona looked left and right, there should have been sculptures in the corridor, but it seemed that the thieves had taken them and sold them, she jumped up and grabbed the chandelier hanging on the top of the porch, the ceiling here was made of candles, and the curved branches had spikes for candles, she wanted to pull it off and use it as a weapon, but it was really too strong, and Leona hung in the air awkwardly.

Mei Mi added a spell just in time, and the thief's dagger hit the transparent barrier and fell, Leona was not in danger for the time being, but the thief's eyes immediately fell on Flo's priest.

The poor little priest turned and ran without looking back, only to have the thief apprentice who was crawling out of the corridor by his nose and grabbed her ankle as soon as he reached out, and Memmy fell down the hallway, this time not her ass but her chest, and her tears of pain flowed from her eyes, and for the first time it was not a good thing to think that certain positions were too plump.

Before she could recover from her dizziness, she was grabbed by the hair and lifted up, and she cursed Glenn silently as she struggled in vain, and then she remembered the trick Glenn had played with her, Glenn was a brilliant thief, and of course he knew what a thief would do when he tried to kill someone, although at the time he had jokingly used Memmy as the object of the demonstration, but now the priest of Frow really had to thank him for his bad taste!

There was a ring on her finger, and the ring was set with a large crystal, and the base was of black iron, which did not look very valuable, but it cost more than a ring of pure gold of its sizeβ€”and she pressed down on her middle finger with all her might, and a delicate needle jumped out of it, it was small, but it was actually edged on both sides, and it was as sharp as if it had been polished on the skull of the devil, and she did not bother to stab the thief who had captured herβ€”and she was not going to pierce his ears- With a single hand, he cut off his hair, and at the same time slid down and escaped from under the thief's dagger.

It was the wall in front of her that she let out another curse.

She clasped her hands, and since Flo hadn't ignored her in the previous crises, now she had to pray to the beautiful Flo to see if she could get a powerful magic - but this time it wasn't Flo, it was Cremar.

The black-haired spellcaster suddenly appeared in the hallway like a ghost, a spell gesture in his hand, and the thief tried to escape, but the swift flames engulfed him in a flash.

"Oh," cried Memy in despair, "Leona is still there!" (to be continued.) )
