Chapter Twenty-Five: Infiltrating Blackwater
Yes!
As a cry of pain rang out from Hax's mouth, Rocky didn't hesitate to slash his chest with a dragon claw, and then, using his blood as a guide, chanted the ancient dragon magic in dragon language.
It is worth mentioning that Rocky's previous threat is still somewhat effective, although Sagert's Split Soul can withdraw from him at any time, but at present, it is obviously unable to find a better host than Rocky, so no matter how unhappy it is with Rocky's threat, it can only pinch its nose and hand over this ancient dragon magic contract in the end.
This spell is very awkward, and if it weren't for the simultaneous chanting of Sagert's voice in his head, Rocky probably wouldn't have been able to finish even half of it, even though the spell itself didn't actually require much mental power.
As for Hax, even if his eardrum hadn't ruptured, it would have been impossible for him to hear the incantation with his knowledge of dragon language.
But it doesn't matter if you don't know, as a mage, Hux knows one thing better than anyone else, except for those prestigious high-level contract magic, even if there are some low-level spells that can achieve the same contract effect, no matter what, the premise of voluntary signing cannot be avoided.
Therefore, when Rocky finished chanting the incantation, a contract mark formed by his own blood floated to his forehead, and he automatically knew the content of the contract contained in the contract mark.
"I do!"
After not seeing those absolutely unacceptable terms in the contents of the contract, Hax didn't bother to carefully analyze and study them one by one, and agreed aloud with great interest.
Laugh at!
As the words "I do" fell from Hax's mouth, a fist-sized blood-colored mark instantly entered his mind, and another, smaller mark was swallowed by Rocky.
......
In the early morning, when the sky was just dawning, some special small city gates of Blackwater City opened before those main city gates, and then some horse-drawn carriages or ox carts that had been waiting outside the gates soon entered the city gates in turn according to the areas that had been divided, and drove towards the rich and noble districts in the city.
Behind these carriages were not aristocratic carriages, but one or two or three tall round barrels, and the coachmen and helpers were all covered with thick masks, with only their eyes and hair exposed.
"Hey, shitman, why are there blood stains on your wheels?"
When the last carriage drove into the city gate, a city gate guard who was also wearing a mask stopped the carriage with a torch, and then shook the torch and pointed to a dark red blood stain on the left wheel of the carriage and asked the driver and helper in front of the carriage.
Although the existence of magic has made the aristocracy of this world live in the same standard of living as the rich people in Rocky's previous life, in some ways, magic still cannot be as effective as industrial technology, or there are no mages willing to engage in and study this kind of thing.
And fecal disposal is undoubtedly the forbidden area that noble mages are most reluctant to mention and touch.
If any mage were to study this realm, no matter how righteous his intentions were, he would be spurned by all spellcasters and then dissociated from it, even the necromancers who everyone shouted at him!
But this is another thing that has to be dealt with, so the "manure puller", which is a low-class job among ordinary people, was born, and the people who do this kind of work are often those who are disabled or have extremely ugly faces.
Anyway, with black cloth robes and masks covering them, no one will notice the difference between them, and they will not collide with those aristocratic lords who sleep until dawn with their wives and concubines.
At this moment, in the face of the sudden inquiry of the city gate guards, the coachman and the helper who pulled the cart shook slightly, but fortunately, the sky was not bright at this moment, and this action was not seen.
"My lord Mingjian, which lady and lady may have flowed out, somehow it overflowed, the villain must be wiped clean when he goes back, he must be wiped clean!"
When the guard's face began to become impatient, the coachman finally came to his senses and bowed his head to answer his question, which sounded very young to the voice of the coachman.
After listening to the young coachman's explanation, the guard's face instantly became extremely ugly, and then he turned around and spat fiercely and scolded: "Phew, bad luck, why is Lao Tzu so unlucky, I encountered such an unfortunate thing early in the morning, get out, hurry up and get out of the way for Lao Tzu." ”
As if frightened by the appearance of the guards, the coachman and his helpers hurriedly dragged the reins of their horses and ran into the city, and soon disappeared from the sight of the guards.
Half an hour later, in a deserted courtyard in the slums of Blackwater City, the dung cart was kicked to the ground by the driver and his helpers, and was quickly broken down and ignited into a stinking bonfire.
When the cart and the barrel were completely burned, the young coachman waved his hands and a gust of wind blew away all the stench and soot, and it was not his concern where the things would go.
Blowing away the stench and soot, the coachman took off the black mask on his face, revealing a young man's face that was not handsome but definitely not ugly, and the owner of this face was the low-level mage Harke, who had been captured by Rocky.
"Lord Rocky, are you alright?"
Hax looked cautiously at Rocky, who was still wearing a black mask next to him, for fear that the other party would be angry at him because of this despicable experience, after all, it was too embarrassing to say this.
But this is what Hux thinks too much, he has experienced the influence of so many celebrities in his previous life, and today's experience is really nothing to Rocky, and he even thought about whether to take the initiative to tell him about his experience today after he became famous, and also distribute a heart-filled chicken soup to those descendants.
He raised his hand and tore it gently, then tore off the mask covering his face, revealing a pale little face that was extremely immature, and then opened a mouthful of white teeth and said, "Mr. Mage, don't forget your current identity. ”
Hax immediately remembered his current "identity", a wandering mage who wandered around with his junior brother.
Then without Rocky's reminder, he gently rubbed his face, made himself look a little serious and stilted, and nodded: "Okay Rocky, let's find a place to stay for a while." ”
"Okay, brother. ”
After following Hax around the ghetto, Rocky found that he still underestimated the mage's place in the hearts of ordinary humans in this world.
But anyone who saw Hax's gray robe, whether it was the poor beggars who were dying of starvation in the streets, or the fierce gangsters, would bow their heads in fear and salute him, and even wherever they walked, the thieves and thieves temporarily restrained their hands and feet, and tried to pretend that they were just passing by.
In the face of Rocky's surprise in this regard, Hax said with a show off: "If it is during the Arcane Empire, the mage is the only noble, as long as it is a formal mage who can release a ring of spells, he will automatically obtain the status of a nobleman of the empire, how can those warriors and knights serve as lords and nobles!"
When Rocky heard this, he looked at the proud mage with a smile and said, "So you want to say that you were born at the wrong time." ”
"Well, no, I didn't mean that, I just wanted to clear your mind. ”
After Harks finished speaking, he was afraid that Rocky would continue to entangle on this topic, so he quickly changed the topic and pointed to a certain block in front of him and said: "That is the civilian residential area of Blackwater City, we can go to the housing exchange set up by the city hall there to see if there is a suitable place to rent." ”
