Chapter 306: The Fallen City of Ebbuston (7)
Leaving the Lizard Bar, Ryan and the others, led by Tiselis, wandered around the business district of Ebosson as if nothing had happened, and everyone from Saluofin to here, along the way, they were not less "welcomed" by a certain force , and after arriving at Ebosson, the Makusu Hail and the jellyfish mercenary group found themselves separately, so Ticilis and they wondered if there was any unknown relationship between the two groups and the organization behind the control of the saro-finned beast tide, but when she was at the lizard bar, Ticilis had already judged that the octopus man of Makusu Hail should have met with her party by chance, so the suspicion of the jellyfish mercenary group inevitably increased a lot.
Wandering along the way, Tisylis also carefully told some information about Ebbosson to Ryan and Farath, such a fallen capital has risen on the submarine plain, and its development and rise must be mixed with various power games, in fact, Ticilis herself has some of her strength extended here, but this kind of peripheral force that only belongs to her, everyone knows very well that those chambers of commerce and mercenary groups are dependent on Ticilis, but if you really want to find some concrete evidence, it is unthinkable.
Not only Teclius, but also her mother, her sister Shadurellna, and many other forces in the Naga Empire also used similar means to get a share of the city of Ebston, and in the end, the result of the battle between the various forces was to achieve the reputation of Ebston and make every force that intervenes here a lot of money. Of course, Ticilis's peripheral forces in Ebosson are no problem to use as cannon fodder on errands, but they must not be used as henchmen, so Ticilis has no intention of contacting the person in charge here, on the contrary, she also deliberately made some things here in the name of Concubine Lingcui in the name of Concubine Naga, so that she can muddy the stagnant waters that have settled in Ebosson again.
If someone wants to investigate Tisilis's background, then they must use their power in the western part of the underwater world to investigate the terrifying huge family, as one of the ten major families of the Naga clan, Fei Lingcui has a huge army and belongs to the real power of the empire, such a big family infighting is naturally also complicated, some of their clansmen are biased towards Ticilis's sister Shadurella, some of them are secretly in contact with Ticilis, and some of the clansmen will strictly abide by neutrality and not help each other, of course, the patriarch of Concubine Lingcui naturally obeys the orders of the Naga Empress unconditionally。 In this case, not to mention the external forces, I am afraid that even if Empress Naga personally orders a strict investigation, it will take a long time to really straighten out these messy relationships, and such a long time is enough for Ticilis to return to the station safely.
"So you're planning to use this as a battlefield?" After listening to Tyrilis's explanation, Faras suddenly opened her mouth to ask, now a few of them are sitting around a store specializing in selling magic items, Tetraris just opened an account of one million gold coins in Eboston not long ago today, but in such a short period of time, her image has spread all over the city, the octopus man boss saw Tyrielis and others come to hang out in his shop, and he directly provided them with a quiet room, so that his most powerful apprentices could serve, as for the magic items placed in front of Faras and others, naturally all of them are the best goods on hand of this boss。
"Yes!" Tisilis didn't deliberately lower her voice, because they had a magical enchantment blessed by Ryan himself, which could prevent the content of their conversation from leaking out, so Ticilis directly ignored the lizardman apprentice who was standing more than ten meters away and respectfully waiting for her orders, and directly answered Faraz's question: "If we return to Tisilina too soon, I'm afraid that the forces behind them will cut off the exposed part of themselves, so that they will hide again." Such a big hidden danger, which may even cover several of my generals with military power, is likely to be fatal, whether it is when I and Shadurilna are vying for the throne, or when it erupts at a critical moment in my reign in the future. Rather than this, it is better to delay here for a few days, on the one hand, to tease the hidden forces as much as possible, so that on the one hand, it can be regarded as a prestige for the few of you!"
"Hehe, speaking of which, Ryan's performance just now was really good!" Farath said with a smile: "If you want to fight, now, if you don't fight, get out!" Ryan, what you said is really imposing, much more arrogant than when Fernando was named Fabia!"
Ryan listened to Faraz's half-teasing and half-praising words, and said with a guilty face: "Actually, I really don't like this kind of ...... However, since it is necessary to show the arrogance of a Tieflin powerhouse, it has to be like this. I've seen a few things when I've been at Cassano, and I've been able to make any decision or say anything that says the opposite of what I imagined in my heart. ”
"Haha, that's funny!" Faras was about to laugh a few times, but suddenly changed her tone and said, "Well, this magic trinket is not bad, Fei Lan, what do you think?"
Ryan and Tisilis, like Faraz, also felt a faint wave of magic passing over them, and they knew that it was most likely someone using magic to peep at them, so naturally they all tacitly stopped talking about what had just happened, but began to comment on the magic ornament that Faraz was holding in his hand.
Tisilis said in a praising tone: "It's very good, although the materials are not particularly good, but the craftsmanship of the makers is still commendable." ”
Ryan said in a dismissive tone: "Just this, the combination between the water magic array and the wind magic array is miserable, and the final effect is only a level 5 defensive magic, if you add a few fire magic as a relay, at least you can raise the effect of that defense magic to another level!"
The three of them said that I was really visiting the shops, and after the magic fluctuations that shrouded him disappeared, Ryan snorted and said to Ticilis: "I have locked the other party's position, do you want to kill him?"
"Don't be so anxious. Ticylis smiled and said, "If we take the initiative too much, I'm afraid that our true purpose will be exposed, so it's better to wait for them to play their cards." ”
Faras put the magic trinkets back in her hand and waved her hand at the lizardman apprentice standing nearby, signaling that he could take it, and the apprentice bent over and took out the wooden plate that had been placed in front of them by Faras. In all fairness, the goods in this magic shop are still good, but unfortunately they are dispensable for legendary magicians like Ryan, so Farath and the others don't particularly like any goods. The owner of the magic shop didn't care when he saw that Ticilis and the others had found nothing, but came out respectfully to see Ryan and the others leave, but when Ticilis was about to walk out of the door of the shop, the octopus man boss suddenly said something: "Several of them must be big shots, so naturally they don't look down on my goods here, but since yesterday it has been our annual auction in Ebosson, if you want some surprises, you might as well go and see it." ”
Hearing the reminder from the octopus man boss, Ryan couldn't help but stop and ask, "Oh, so what are the good things in this auction?"
The boss of the octopus man waited for this opportunity, and he hurriedly replied: "Distinguished guests, this kind of auction house generally lasts for three days, and what was sold yesterday is often only some commonly used goods, and today it is generally some special and rare things, as for tomorrow, it is the goods that other guests consign here, and a few guests may wish to go and see if they are interested." In previous years, there have been deep-sea squid eggs, refined obsidian, lich flowers, star diamonds and other rare and unsought-after items at such auctions, as for this year, before the auction house ends, we outsiders definitely don't know what to sell, on the one hand, for the sake of secrecy, on the other hand, it is also a gimmick to attract everyone, in short, they ensure that this year's auction items will not be worse than the ones I mentioned above. ”
"The eggs of the deep sea squid?" Ryan muttered to himself, and Faras had already guessed from his words what Ryan didn't say below, "I don't know what it has to do with that illusion master Jimka's deep sea squid." Seeing that Ryan and Faras both seemed interested in the auction, Tixielis said, "Lead the way!" With that, a bulging bag of money was thrown at the octopus man boss.
The octopus boss accepted Tixilis's bounty with a smile, but he didn't actually covet these bounties, although the gold coins in the money bag were definitely not a small amount. In fact, the octopus man boss cares most about being able to have some relationship with a Naga woman like Ticilis, which is some kind of invisible investment. With Tixilis's unconcealable noble temperament, the octopus man boss believes that she is by no means an ordinary person, if she really has the opportunity to be supported by the other party in the future, wouldn't it make the octopus man boss's business go to the next level?
Ten minutes later, the octopus man boss took Tixilis and his party to the outside of an inconspicuous building, he whispered a few words to the two guards guarding the door, and then pointed to Ticilis and the others, indicating that these guests wanted to go in and have a look. The guards who can guard the door in this kind of place are naturally people with excellent eyesight, and they naturally don't dare to offend a distinguished guest like Ticilis, so they open the door and politely invite Ticilis and others to enter, but the octopus man boss doesn't seem to be identious enough and was stopped outside by the guards.
After entering the building, Ryan and the others found that this was not a real auction hall, but just a passage to the auction hall, and the two guards in charge of guarding the door did not have the right to go deep into it, but handed over Ticilis and the others to a female octopus maid, who led the passage in the building in front of them to go underground. After walking for about a few minutes, Ryan and the others felt as if they had entered a magical enchantment, and the octopus waiter had no authority to continue going, and the one who received Ticilis and the others into the real auction hall was replaced by a kind-looking male fish-man supervisor, who took Tisylis and his party of seven to the door of a stone room, opened the door and made an inviting gesture.
