The talking house wood has always been the object of much discussion in the newspaper, and no one knows why it can speak, not even the former owner Ugel.

Many people have researched why the house speaks, and Hanaris even searched the whole house, but didn't find much out of the ordinary.

Problems arise but have been "unsolvable", and the house has no other purpose except to be able to speak, and gradually, people have basically ignored it.

And yet, now, it even says that it is going to start "having children"?

"Can anyone tell me what a child will be born of a house?"

After Mu said that, he disappeared, but the group was in an uproar because of this sentence.

"A small house?" said Dario, showing his dry humor.

"I guess it's going to be a piece of wood?" Kleist, the merchant's idea, was nothing new.

"Maybe it's the other one who can talk?" Alan also guessed, but no one could know until the final outcome of this kind of thing appeared, so they could only talk for a while, and finally suppressed their curiosity and waited for the follow-up.

"I was able to see a house and have a baby before I left, and it wasn't my visit to Samuel for nothing. Alan sighed, walked out the door, and glanced back at the newspaper office.

The newspaper office looks ordinary, just a corner of the place, who would have thought that it is a wonderful place hidden inside?

"Come with me, Silvermoon Street is over there. The merchant said, pointing in a certain direction.

Although the wood ignored them, Alan still asked the address of the original owner Ugel - Maple Tavern on Silver Moon Street in the mouth of the bystanders, as if Uger and Alan had said it before, but he didn't take it to heart, so that he still had to ask others.

The newspaper office is not far from Silver Moon Street, and it can even be said that it is only one street away.

This famous street seems to have nothing special at first glance, the bluestone pavement is still under the feet, and on the left hand side is a square, which is completely white, very similar to the square below the Pearl Castle, with a statue on the neighborhood.

On the right-hand side is a row of window shops, and there are many palm trees in front of the door.

At this time, there are few pedestrians on Yinyue Street, most of the passers-by look leisurely, and they are well-dressed, and they are very clean here, but in fact, there are not too many special features, it can only be said that the atmosphere is more literary and artistic than ordinary places. And the people who come here are also wealthy, well-dressed, and nothing dirty or messy.

Alan had been curious about this before, and had been here before, but because he hadn't seen many special places, he went away, and when he came again, there was a strange novelty, could it be because he was leaving the city?

"Maple Leaf Tavern is located in the middle of Silver Moon Street. The merchant walked beside Alan, who seemed to have been here for some time, and his words and deeds were filled with a familiar smell: "The boss there's called Rabert, and he's a Westerner. ”

"Westsider, why did he come here to open a tavern?" asked Allen.

The western border is 108,000 miles away from the southern border, and under normal circumstances, no one would choose to leave their homeland far away, right?

"It's said to be because of a woman? Who knows, it's not uncommon in the stars. The merchant said, with a rare sigh: "The cost of travel is too great, sometimes once you go out, you may never be able to go back, many people have a sense of fear of going out of the city, for fear that they will encounter misfortune." ”

"yes," Alan nodded silently.

The general environmental factors, the tragedy of the stars is unknown, not to mention some poor people, even if they are rich and expensive, if there is no means of self-preservation, the probability of danger will be very large.

Not everyone is like Allen, who huddles before going out, and he doesn't need to think about anything at all about some small problems and his own safety, in the stars, most people go out, the first problem they face is to hire a team of trustworthy protectors, and then there are all the items they need before and after going out, supplies, horses, weapons, etc.

If anything goes wrong in the middle, it can lead to a tragedy in the world, not to mention that if the protector you hire is corrupt, then it is a matter of whether to protect you or rob you after leaving the city.

While chatting, the merchant stopped in front of a tavern with brown doors, pointed to the pattern hanging on the tavern, and said, "Maple Leaf Tavern, we have arrived." ”

The wooden sign swayed gently in the breeze, and Alan glanced at it, and the red maple leaf shape clearly did not match its name.

The two stepped into it.

Although it is a tavern, there is no noise inside, which may have something to do with the current time, and it is deserted at this time, and there are not many customers.

The bartender was wiping the glass behind the counter, and when he heard the noise, he didn't stop, and asked without raising his head, "What do you two order?"

"We're looking for people. The merchant said, and went up to ask for details, and of course, he did not forget the tip.

For the sake of the silver coins, the bartender was very cooperative, but to his surprise, Ugel had already moved out of the place.

"Do you know where you went?" Alan frowned.

"I don't know, I just remember that he left in a hurry. The bartender said, suddenly patting his head: "By the way, I remember that the old gentleman had a conversation with our boss before he left." ”

"Your boss?" asked Kleist, "can you let us meet him?" ”

As he spoke, his right hand brushed lightly over the counter, and a few more silver coins appeared on the otherwise polished table.

The bartender nodded with a smile, picked up the silver coins on the table, turned around and said, "Come with me, the boss is behind." ”

Behind the tavern was a small garden, and at this time a thin middle-aged man was watering the flowers in the small garden, and when he heard the merchant's words, he replied, "Ugal? ”

"Old friends?"

"Yes, I heard it's a dwarf merchant. The middle-aged man nodded slowly, and then smiled: "I'm still a mage." ”

His words made Alan a little suspicious, both a dwarf, a businessman, and a mage... Could it be the cunning Oliver?

It had been a long time since he had heard from Oliver, and he didn't know if he had died in which corner or if he had gone to another city to hang out, except for a alchemy house in the bay, as if the world had evaporated.

"Is there anything you need help with? I'm not as good as Mr. Ugal, but I'm a mage. ”

The tavern owner said, smiling kindly at Alan, "Most of the mages live in Silvermoon Street, and there are very few mages who have not heard of Alan Chrissy's name, and I have admired you for a long time. ”

Seeing him say this, Alan smiled humbly, then thought for a while, and said, "It's not a secret thing, if it's not very troublesome, I want to ask you to help me deliver a message." ”

"What's the news?"

"Alan Chriss, the lord of Bay City, will set up a magic department in the bay, and each mage will have a minimum salary of 5 gold coins per month, and there will be no upper limit according to ability. ”

"Is an apprentice okay?" asked the middle-aged man with interest.

"Yes. Alan nodded.

"5 a month?" the tavern owner was a little incredulous.

"That's right. Alan nodded again.

"You..... What a generous attitude. The tavern owner sighed, then suddenly laughed, "I wonder if I can?"

Alan was stunned, then nodded: "Of course you can, but I think with this tavern, you won't be uncommon to work for others." ”

"Haha, that's right. The tavern owner laughed, and then said, "It's okay, I'll pass it on for you, I think many mages will be happy to go to your bay city." ”

"Thank you. "Alan has a good impression of this guy's boldness.

However, the tavern owner suddenly waved his hand: "Don't be busy, I also have a favor I want to ask you to help me." ”

"What's the busy?"

The tavern keeper said, "I would like to ask you to bring me a letter to a friend of the reef, I haven't been in touch for a long time, and I need to explain something to him." ”

Asking someone else to bring a letter is a very common thing in the stars, and it is not too troublesome, so Alan did not refuse, and he did not hesitate to go to the bay and pass by the reef, so he agreed.

After a little more small talk, Alan took his leave. The tavernkeeper, on the other hand, touched the ring on his finger and watched thoughtfully at his departing back.

"Wonderful timing, isn't it. The originally kind face slowly converged and became a little cold.

"I thought it was no show, but I didn't expect him to send it to the door in person. ”

The tavernkeeper muttered, his voice full of hatred, "Tyronn Chlich, it looks like you're doomed to lose a son, haha!"
