Chapter Forty-Six: Naga Phantom and Reflection
The riots in Bay City lasted for about ten days, during these ten days, countless shops and taverns were seized, countless gangs were bloodbathed, at first, these rebels were able to organize people to bring some trouble to Allen, but as the purge continued, the resistance became less and less, and in the last two days there was not even the slightest riot, and after ten days, the remaining forces of the pirates were basically wiped out.
This brought Eren a lot of invisible wealth, and the empty shop tavern was basically owned by the lord, but alas, he didn't get much gold from it.
Those pirates had premeditated and had taken most of the wealth they could with them before they disappeared, leaving Eren with only those less valuable lands and buildings.
However, it is not very valuable and only relatively speaking, and after hearing about Allen's actions, Bauer, who has been inspecting Bay City, immediately paid to buy ten shops from him at a price of 50 gold coins each.
50 gold coins are relatively expensive, which is already a huge amount of money in the eyes of ordinary people, but as a goblin, Bauer naturally will not make a loss-making transaction, and the shops he bought are not only great in the area, but also the goods in them are basically owned by him.
This eased Allen's financial pressure a little, but it wasn't a lot, and the ten shops only sold a total of 500 gold coins, but his daily expenses were already more than that.
The operation to acquire the corpse of the fishman has been going smoothly, but it has only been formed smoothly with the support of a large number of gold coins, and in ten days, Alan has spent no less than 5,000 gold coins, which is unimaginable.
This is still calculated on average when the fish-men outside the city are becoming more and more difficult to kill, and if you continue to kill fish at the same rate as at the beginning, it is estimated that the five thousand gold coins will double.
The fish people outside the city have been decreasing from the initial crazy appearance, and although the group of fish people under the city is still dense, but every day they run out of the sea in twos and threes, and the fish people army is not fully replenished, and it is only a matter of time before they are all killed.
But because of this, the mercenaries have significantly slowed down the speed of killing fishmen, in the past they only need to intercept those new fishmen from the sea, but now, they have to find a way to attract fishmen from the fish-man army, otherwise those supplementary fishmen are simply not enough to kill.
The mercenaries were very upset about this, but Alan was relieved by it. Although Goblin Bauer said that he would pay for the purchase of the finished alchemy product after experimenting with it, he was in a hurry this time and didn't bring much money at all, so it was naturally impossible to eat all the goods that Allen had piled up in a warehouse.
If you want to wait for Mr. Goblin to get gold coins to buy goods, they can only return to the Free Federation after the stars are over, and until then, the fish-man can only be purchased by Alan himself.
Fortunately, he was precocious since he was a child because of the crossing, and he relied on various ideas to earn a lot of gold coins in Reef City early, otherwise he really wouldn't have been able to support this operation.
It's just that according to the current consumption, his money is barely supported, and if there are any special circumstances, it will be overspending.
In this regard, although Alan is a little worried, but he is not particularly worried, the current situation in the city has basically stabilized, although there are some naga outside the city from time to time, but it can't bring much wind and waves, it seems that it is no problem to survive this fish-man invasion, he can't think of any other place to use money.
Thinking of Naga, Allen, who was tending to the moonshine grass, couldn't help but look down at his wrist.
At this time, on his left wrist, on the two corners of the six-pointed star, there are two Naga phantoms disappearing from time to time, and six hazy and transparent arms are surrounding the star horns, constantly moving their bodies as if they are playing.
The phantom of the two-headed Naga is about the size of a thumb, but the intelligence revealed in it makes Alan very curious, he has not yet studied what the two phantoms do, but they can be combined by six-pointed stars, and they must not be waste.
Yes, they were made up of hexagrams, just like the first Naga he had killed, every time Eren killed a Naga, a soul phantom would appear that only he could see, and then it was absorbed by the hexagram and wrapped around one of its corners.
During this time, Eren killed almost fifteen Naga, and there were still three soul threads wrapped around the six-pointed star, and the rest all turned into Naga phantoms.
Six silk threads make up one, exactly two.
"What the hell are they for?"
From time to time, Alan studied these two little things in the study, but unfortunately, he didn't find anything without Dongzi as a reference.
Shaking his head helplessly, putting down the moonlight grass that was dull because of his absorption, Alan turned around and found a new pot and planted another one.
Looking at the neat six pots of silver grass in the corner of the desk, Alan couldn't help but smile slightly.
According to the experimental data, the magic provided by each Moonlight Grass can allow him to use one more gray spell, and the cultivation of six Moonlight Grass, plus the magic power that initially increased due to the power of Lady Wind, he has been able to cast about twenty spells in succession.
Compared to the time when he could only release it three times at the beginning, he was different.
"Although it is not obvious yet, according to Ms. Wind's note, the effect of the moonshine grass should be getting weaker and weaker, and when the fish-people fade, the plan to find new seeds should also be on the agenda. ”
Alan was writing and drawing in his notebook, where there were already many tasks to be done.
【Construction of a printing house】
[Building roads, renovating slums and ruins around cities]
【Business Promotion】
[Find the hidden pirates and prepare for the counterattack]
【Finding new seeds for backup】
and the last one, "To the Night Forest"
Writing this, he frowned.
Affecting his own cultivation, Alan must go to the Night Forest where Ms. Feng is located, but at this time of vigorous development, the territory cannot be let go casually.
"It's really tangled. ”
Alan sighed helplessly.
Developing the territory is actually just that he wants to use the territory to spread his name more quickly in order to charge the golden finger.
But the charging golden finger is just to make himself stronger and more interesting.
Being strong and interesting is what he's looking for at the moment.
This world is very boring, there is no entertainment at all except for man-making activities, although he has "invented" card games in Reef City before, but to be honest, he doesn't like to play that very much, and he has played enough in a few days, but the locals of this world are very interested in solitaire, and it has become popular in the south of the empire, and it is said that His Majesty the Emperor of the capital knows this kind of thing...
According to his heart, becoming strong and interesting is what he needs to pursue in this world, or only three words: meaningful.
It's also fun to be stronger, something that the memories of his past life don't have, and the mysterious magical path and countless epic adventures have filled Allen's heart with yearning.
This is also his only pursuit, in this world where there is no network, no WeChat, no games, no QQ, and even no Taobao to buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy
So he's struggling.
It is interesting to develop the territory charged gold finger to get the gift, and it is fun to get all kinds of mysterious spells and items, and it is also interesting to leave the territory and venture out to pursue higher cultivation, which can also make him stronger, which is also very interesting, which makes people hesitate.
"Maybe I can consider waiting until the situation is stable before venturing out of the city..."
Alan thought of a compromise, and then thought that if he wanted to do so, he had to have someone he could trust to come to Bay City to take charge of him.
Sitting in his chair pondering this, Alan kept thinking about who he trusted and competed, but before he could think further, there was a knock on the door of the study.
"Knock knock!"
"Master Allen, someone is looking for you. ”
"Who?"
Alan screamed angrily. He was already busy enough during this time, and he finally had some time to think about life, and there were still people bothering him.
I didn't let people live.
Alan was quite irritated by this, but the servant's next words made his irritability dissipate, and instead raised a trace of interest.
"It's a noble lady named Renee, who claims to be from Samuel in the City of Roses. ”
"Samuel Renee?"
"Renee Samuel?"
"Of the Rose family?"
Alan looked a little strange, and then muttered the visitor's name again, groaning slightly.
"That's a familiar name..."
