George vaguely remembers having a bizarre dream.

I dreamed that he and Lydia walked along the reeds and came to a colorful forest. Spotted mushrooms hide under the trees, sunlight drifts linearly through the shades, white doves fly up to the pointed roofs, and stone towers in the distance are endowed with precipitated beauty by time.

It's like an old library in a magic academy.

In the blink of an eye, I was back in the dormitory of the Academy of Magic, with small wooden beds and log window lattices, the usual light that was not too bright.

When he woke up, he saw the familiar pentagram glow white, and George "fell asleep."

George felt heavy on his eyelids, barely opened them, and looked at the roof for a while without realizing where he was. Hey, aren't they in the Moroch Mountains?

George tumbled out of bed, his hands and feet weak with hunger, and his stomach screamed in shame.

When I walked out the door, I found myself living in a tulou that was nothing more common in the Xiyi Empire, and looked down at a small patio, and a cluster of March primroses blooming near the mouth of the well covered with stone slabs.

Outside the building was a bustling market, and the shouts of the hawkers came from the low shantytowns, and George stopped and listened for a while, but still did not understand the situation. I couldn't understand it, after all, Spur language was only a minor for George when he was at the Academy of Magic.

He was puzzled when the three Lydia in the next room woke up one after another.

Arnold went downstairs and walked around, and came back to tell the three of them a bombshell news: "We are in the Rhine City of the Spur Empire!" ”

Uncle Sam asked in horror, "How come?" I remember that before I passed out, I was still far away from the small town of Gase, and I woke up and went to the Spurs? ”

The territory of the three empires all borders the Moloch Mountains, but the Xiyi country is in the opposite direction from the Spur Country, and according to the route that the four have been looking for, the destination is the most famous town of Gasai in the Xiyi country.

Rhine City, thousands of miles away in the territory of the Spur Country, even Arnold is a smear.

As soon as you wake up, you will go from the Moroch Mountains to the country of spurs, and no one will believe this kind of experience, right? There were many stalls selling pies and fruits in the market, and the four of Lydia looked at each other, and the adventurers who entered the Morok Mountains to treasure treasures were carrying necessities and materials, and gold coins, the circulating currency that the people of the mainland relied on for survival, were still far behind - there was no way to buy things from Warcraft with money in the mountains.

What's even more painful is that after a series of events, the necessities they carry have long been exhausted, and there is no way to exchange them for money.

"Or did you exchange the potion?"

After Liu Ci separated, for the sake of his livelihood after leaving the mountain, the four of Lydia also picked some potions worth a little money along the way. The leather pocket of the potion hung right behind Lydia's waist, so Uncle Sam suggested it.

Lydia frowned, "We are not familiar with Rhine City. ”

None of the merchants who can sell and buy potions have never been listed in the Magic Association, and the reason why Gase Town is loved by adventurers and mercenaries is precisely because it is an important town of free trade. The medicinal herbs that can be sold for 100 gold coins in Gasai Town, if you change the Rhine City, which is unfamiliar with the place, may be reduced by half, and you can sell it for 50 gold coins, even if you have the ability.

There is also one thing that is common in any country and region on the continent and retains its value, and that is the crystal nucleus of Warcraft.

The small pouch that Lydia carries with her contains nine Cores.

In addition to the invaluable first- and second-order demonic beast crystal cores, one of the most precious fifth-order demonic cores was the fuse that allowed the Fire Eagle Adventure Team to ambush them.

Lydia originally wanted to rely on this fifth-order demon core to pay part of the compensation, but after experiencing Jeff's death and the blow of Jinjira and a few people appearing in the Fire Eagle Adventure Team, most of her thoughts were extinguished. Whether she wants to admit it or not, the adventure team she built up was almost completely destroyed.

After escaping from the lakeside grassland, Lydia has been thinking that maybe she can become a mercenary when she leaves the mountains. Although the reward for danger is not low, the burden on her shoulders is lighter, and she only needs to bear the tuition of her younger brother George's school of magic.

Thinking of Aunt Jones, who had nothing to support and suffered from blindness, Lydia's eyes darkened:

"It's a pity to sell the potion here, let's exchange it for two magic cores first."

The two demon cores she took out, one was a first-order water demon core, and the other was a second-order earth demon core, both of which were common property that the four of them had fought for their lives.

The hunger in his belly would not sympathize with the depression of the four, George's stomach rumbled again, and Lydia was about to go with Arnold to exchange the core.

The cries of the vendors outside the door suddenly lowered, and the clatter of horses' hooves fell on the stone pavement.

Someone stopped the carriage outside the tulou.

The gray-haired man got out of the carriage, and the momentum made the surrounding vendors unconsciously lower their voices.

Walking through the narrow doorway, the gray-haired gentleman took off his hat and bent down to salute: "Are you Miss Lydia Hera?" ”

Unlike the market vendors, the old gentleman spoke standard Xiyi.

Lydia's teeth are sour, adventurers deal with murderous monsters and rough teammates all day long, there is no difference between men and women in everyone's eyes, few people will call her "Miss", making Lydia suspect that she has even changed her identity when she wakes up.

"I'm Lydia Hera."

Spit and spit back, Lydia still answered.

The gentleman's very stern face showed a standard upward smile, "Just on behalf of my esteemed master, I have extended an invitation to you and your companions, the carriage is already outside the door, do you need to wait for you to freshen up and change?" ”

After freshening up and having no clothes to change, Lydia and the four of them were in a daze and were invited into the carriage by the old gentleman.

It was awkward for the four rough men to sit on the woolen carpet in the car, which nobleman had taken a fancy to the four of them, and there was no one to explain everything that happened.

George tried to ask, and the old gentleman replied with a straight look:

"The master's name cannot be mentioned lightly, but you can call her 'Miss Ci.'"

Miss Tzu?

The four-person team that didn't know Liu Ci's name after getting along for a few months was very hard, and the word "Ci" in the old gentleman's pronunciation was explained by the Xiyi word "kindness".

Lydia couldn't understand how a noble lady could invite them, was it so "kind"?

Horse-drawn carriages drove through the streets from the civilian area to the wealthy one.

The favorite residence of the Rhine's petty aristocracy, the Champagne Boulevard.

The four-storey frontage building is made of fine stone, the roof is painted in a solemn red, and the cream-yellow façade is inlaid with stained glass windows.

The old gentleman invited them out of the car, and another maid stepped forward to take a few people to the bathroom to wash.

It was almost May, and the temperature in the Rhine City was higher than that of the Moroch Mountains, and Lydia could smell the sour smell of dust on her body.

She was prepared for a simple short-sleeved hakama outfit, and knee-high boots were soft and fitting, not stuffy at all.

However, white was the color that Lydia would never touch before, and wearing it softened her resolute face a little. The knotted blonde hair was soaked in milk by the maid and rubbed carefully, standing in front of the dressing mirror, Lydia could not help but blush herself in the mirror.

In the dining room, Lydia met the three Georges who had also been refreshed.

His complexion was noticeably whiter than a little, and even Uncle Sam looked radiant.

On the table were prepared food, fluffy bread, jam and vegetable soup, and the three of them, led by George, tied their napkins and slowly devoured all the food on their plates.

The small mountain of bread was all stuffed into Arnold's stomach, and it was obvious that the natural movements that used to be put in this room looked vulgar, Lydia felt awkward, but Arnold didn't care what the maid behind him thought of him, how he used to eat it, and now his appetite has not decreased by a point.

But how long did you sleep this night? It took three times as much food as usual for Lydia to lose the hunger pang in her stomach.

"Can we personally thank the host? The food was delicious and the clothes prepared fit well. ”

The maids could only speak spurs, so it was George who spoke, and in the face of the young magician's inquiry, the maid smiled and nodded:

"Miss Ci is already waiting for you."

…………

Waiting for Lydia Four? Don't laugh, how can Liu Ci have leisure now.

Through a long-distance teleportation through the pentagram, Rachel sent everyone directly to the suburbs of Rhine City, thousands of miles away.

Waking up from the dizziness of long-distance teleportation, Liu Ci looked at the desolate scenery full of black lines. It was not a good idea to take four unconscious people into the city, so Liu Ci threw the four of them in the suburbs and went into the city with Rachel to sell the potions she had collected at the prompting of Goo. Because she didn't know the current price, she didn't have much regret about being pitted.

The potion that can be looked at by the cooing bird is naturally not a big road commodity collected by Lydia and the four, and Liu Ci sells a lot of gold coins. In the commoner class, where the per capita income is very meager, it is really an astronomical amount, and even among the nobility, it is worth a little.

To break free from the identity of a savage, the first thing Liu Ci had to do was to buy a manor and be the owner of the manor.

After asking Rachel, I learned that no matter in Spurs Country or elsewhere, people who don't have a title can't own land...... It is not unreasonable that everyone aspires to become a nobleman, Liu Ci was despised, and retreated to buy a small building in the wealthy area of Rhine City.

The people who live here are rich but lack status, either declining aristocrats who are declining, or they are big businessmen who have exploded, and they are not the most satisfactory environment for her.

In the Earth Federation, as long as the residents are interested in agriculture, they can apply for a piece of land of their own, and the feudal territorial system of the Magic Continent caught Liu Ci off guard.

No amount of money can buy land.

Because she wanted to decorate her new home, she had to have the four of Lydia temporarily rent a house in a civilian area.

It was estimated that they should be awake, so they sent a housekeeper to pick them up.

Speaking of the old housekeeper recommended by the Chamber of Commerce when buying a house, Liu Ci was very satisfied. Although James was a rigid person, he was well organized in handling household chores.

The apartment was originally empty, and as long as there were gold coins, he quickly hired a well-trained maid of the living contract.

After cleaning up the small building that had been idle for months, James took Lydia and the four of them over. When the maid arrived with Lydia and the four, James was directing the maids standing on the stool to replace the frescoes.

The previous owner was a big businessman, and many of the decorations in the apartment were lacquered gold, and Liu Ci was blinded by the golden light, which was very inconsistent with her aesthetics.

Seeing the "Miss Ci" in the maid's mouth, the four of Lydia were shocked, as if they had the ability to accept it for granted.

Yes, who can bring them out of the Moroch Mountains safely except for the mysterious Great Swordsman?

Rachel, who was wearing a hood, leaned on the railing and went downstairs, and Liu Ci smiled at Lydia: "Come and introduce to you, this is my lost sister, you can just call her Rachel." ”

Hey, the Great Swordsman has an equally mysterious sister?

Lydia felt that after meeting Liu Ci, she had not solved her doubts before. The plan to sell the demon core and return to his hometown was thrown aside by the four of them.

It was an ordinary day in the Rhine.

A swordswoman sold a batch of high-grade potions, bought a medium-sized apartment in a prosperous area, hired a butler and a maid, and quietly became a new resident of the Rhine.
