Chapter 44: The Mysterious Map

In the early morning, the sun rose from the horizon, and ten thousand rays of light shot through the earth, and layers of slightly red tulle covered the earth with the light, and the forest of thousands of miles was suddenly covered with red silk. www.biquge.info At the end of the light, a black dot was rapidly approaching, slowly getting bigger and bigger, and when the sun left the horizon, the layers of tulle and silk were withdrawn, and the approaching black dot could already make people see its whole appearance. Four huge flying beasts were pulling a huge spaceship, and in the middle a huge pillar was not a mast but a huge canopy blocking the entire hull. There was nothing on the deck of the ship, and a figure was flashing there.

This is a cargo ship that Wu Tian specially ordered to transport goods, and now it is heading to a city on the border between Guise and Mars: Vidor City. Cargo ships are giant beasts that can fly farther, and he uses them to his advantage. A giant cargo ship like this is not like an ordinary manned flying beast, as long as you pay the money and make a record, you can let the passengers themselves ride the flying beast to the destination, and no one will follow you. And this kind of cargo ship is originally a cargo ship, and the flying beast is very huge, and with the value of the spaceship, no matter in terms of price and safety, the flying beast will have a flight station staff riding on it. Each of the four flying beasts has a staff member on each of them. However, although they were all in the sky above the spaceship, because of the canopy on the top of the spaceship, they didn't know what the people below were doing all day, and they only heard shouts from time to time, as if someone was practicing.

It is said that the three of them, a man, a woman and a child, are all eccentric, but the man is dressed as a nobleman, and he is very bold in his shots, but his words and deeds are strange and abnormal, but as the man's guard, the woman is a lot more normal. They had doubted their identities, but they had to suppress their suspicions when the steward said that the female guard was a great war master. Ordinary people can have a great war division to escort them? Heroic nobles have seen a lot, but they have never seen a cargo ship rent without pulling goods. There are a lot of giant horse-mounted monsters, but if they are bigger, they are really not as big as cargo ships. Moreover, this is the largest cargo ship they stand, 100 meters long, and the widest hull is 42 meters wide, but there are only three people on such a huge ship, which is not surprising. Speaking of boldness, the longest of them has worked for more than 30 years, and no one has ever seen it, but he has really never seen it to such an extent. Originally, when they charged, the man's gold card had a problem, which did make them more suspicious of his identity, but when the man was impatient with them to go and check why the gold card couldn't pay and threw a blue crystal out, it really surprised them. Azurite is already the most advanced crystal in the eyes of ordinary people, worth millions of gold coins. But then the man was angry again, because the man wanted to charter a cargo ship to go directly to the capital of the Maas Empire, but they couldn't do this, because no matter what means of transportation (except for the teleportation array) had to stop in Vidor City and complete the relevant procedures before they could enter the territory of the Maas Empire, when they finally made the man angry a lot and were busy exchanging the man's azurite (no matter how big the ship was, it wouldn't cost millions of gold coins), the man's arrogance directly shocked them - no need to look for it. Just by virtue of this, let the station master take care of everyone, don't speculate about the identity of the man, all formalities are hastily completed, and all requirements for the cargo ship are complied with, even if the whole ship is dismantled and the four giant beasts are eaten, one million gold coins is more than enough. The main currency on this continent is gold coins, but the gold coins used by the three empires are different from those used by the demon beasts, so the hard currency is still crystals. A regular grid (the size of an adult's thumb, the crystals are two eight-sided edged cones, and the middle is an eight-sided edged column) white crystal = one gold coin, one regular grid citrine = 50 white crystal = 50 gold coins, one regular grid green crystal = 100 citrine = 5000 gold coins, a regular grid blue crystal about = 200 green crystal = 1 million gold coins The reason why it is said is probably because some people will change it to a little more expensive, after all, it is rare to change the azulite, and you have nothing to say if you want it. As for amethyst, it can only be priceless, and no one is stupid enough to exchange amethyst for it, which belongs to the category of treasures. And Black Crystal, not to mention, can no longer be described by price, if you really want to use one word to describe it, it can only be said to be - artifact. It is said that there is a meter-high black crystal in the tower domain, which does not know whether it is true or not, after all, no one has ever entered the tower domain and come out.

Besides, why Wu Tian acted like this, it was because he was afraid of being detected in his whereabouts, and the nobles of this world were superior in the eyes of ordinary people, so they could avoid a lot of trouble. Second, he really needs a big place, he wants to train Lilan, although he said it easily, but he knew in his heart that this trip to Mars could be extremely dangerous. In particular, Lilan, as a lure, is likely to be life-threatening. In order to improve Lilan's hope of survival, she can only be asked to conduct special training and learn some escape skills as soon as possible. Although she can't be able to fight with the Great War Master immediately, not to mention that she may have to add a Magister next to her, as long as the moves are strange, it may be able to drag on for a long time, as long as he can successfully recover his strength from the previous year, he can let himself fight with the combat power of the wing battle in a short period of time, although the time is short, but it is enough, after all, the other party is only a Magister and not a Great Magister. For high-level war divisions, it is even more overwhelming. No, for the past three days, Lilan has been meditating and practicing on the deck of the ship, and after meditating, she has to practice various moves that are used in conjunction with teleportation. And he himself is teaching Xiaolong to learn to sing the children's songs he can remember when he was a child in his hometown, although he doesn't remember many of the lyrics, but he is also happy to sing it, after all, Lilan can't understand it, what is this audience afraid of. What he didn't expect was that the above four staff members, who listened to their singing, directly positioned him as a child of a noble family who did not learn and did not know how to do nothing, and how good could the knowledge of the people who learned cats, dogs, and chickens crow all day long.

This is the third day, and Victoria City is almost here, and when it was close to evening, Victor City was in front of him, Wu Tian called Lilan to stop, and when Lilan arrived, he cleared his throat: "We are going to stay in Victor City for two days, and I will make you a treasure robe." ”

"Baoyi?" Lilan didn't understand, she was mainly lightweight, she didn't like and couldn't wear that heavy armor, "Master, if I put on the armor, I won't be able to move quickly, then ......"

"What armor? Forget it, you don't understand it, but you'll know when the time comes. Wu Tian knew that it would be difficult for Lilan's concept to change for a while, "With this treasure robe, you can really fight with a mage and a high-level war master." Regardless of Lilan's shocked eyes, Wu Tian closed his eyes, there were many things he still had to think about. And Lilan also fell into deep thought, didn't she say that she would lead them away and escape?

"It's here, brother, it's here. Suddenly, Xiaolong happily ran to the side of the boat and climbed on it and looked down with his little feet, which made people really worried that he would accidentally fall, of course, this worry refers to the four staff members above.

Vidor City, a zone that can be said to be three things to ignore. But it's not that no one cares about the three things that no one cares, it's just that too many people manage them that the three things are formed. The city does not belong entirely to the Guise Empire, nor does it belong entirely to the Mars Empire. This is a huge city, spanning the Guise Empire and the Maas Empire, with two city lords and two city guards in one city. A typical city with two governments will work on one side of the city, but it may not work on the other side. After years of negotiations, the law was deleted, and finally the current "three regardless" was formed. Maybe it's because of this, or maybe it's because of the huge forest around it, which makes this a giant city where commerce flourishes and cultivators come and go. There are mercenaries from the third-rate Nine Sects, magicians from noble backgrounds and warriors from orthodox guilds, and there are noble districts with golden splendor and lowly places with mixed crowds.

Of course, the people who came here didn't dare to make too much trouble, after all, there were two chengguan guard regiments here. Not only that, but outside the city, Guise and Mars each have an army stationed all year round, and each army has a magic regiment. Although Guise and Mars are allies, the old saying of our ancestors is also applicable in this world: you must not have the heart to harm others, and you must not have the heart to defend others. Therefore, it is just a person to make trouble here, once it develops into a team battle, and the Guardian Regiment cannot suppress it, these two armies will drive in, and each has a magic regiment, which is not a joke. Therefore, although there is a lot of trouble here, there is no big trouble.

When Wu Tian and the others landed in Victoria City, they found that the atmosphere in the city was not right, and after a little inquiry, it turned out that there were two mercenary groups in the city that had a team fight, and they were the two largest mercenary groups in the city. Because of the conflict of various interests, the two mercenary groups have been on the same footing, and the leaders of the two mercenary groups have been living in the same city under fire in order to avoid violating the bottom line of the country's majesty, and they have always been peaceful. Last night, one of the regiment commanders just got a sun stone was stolen, and the evidence pointed to it being someone from another mercenary group, and this fire rushed up at once, and this fire didn't matter, and he led people to smash many places of the other mercenary group. Immediately after that, you fight me, I fight you, so as to upgrade to two regiments of team battles, both regiments together have more than 5,000 people, although the guard regiment in the city can also hold it, but then you have to fight all the guard regiments. In this way, the army stationed outside the city drove in, and the knights were still fighting, and the people of the two mercenary groups were fighting hotly, and the two regiment leaders were angry, even if they couldn't fight, they wouldn't be able to stop at once, but when the mages of the two magic regiments stood behind the knights and chanted loudly, the two regiment leaders woke up on the spot, and hurriedly pulled the people of their own regiment away and stopped fighting, and when the two sides were still scolding, all kinds of magic fell from the sky and smashed a huge pit where everyone was fighting, which completely frightened the people of the two regiments, and the two city lords put the two regiment leaders"Please go" to discuss how to deal with the aftermath. After all, the two regiments are the economic pillars of the city, and it is impossible for the city lord to directly handle the two regiment leaders, and the contradiction between the two regiment commanders must be resolved and the city can be restored to its original state. In this way, the whole city was taken over by two armies, and the army would not withdraw until the contradictions between the two regiments were completely resolved.

"Stop! Don't look at it, what about you!" Just as Wu Tian and the others were walking outside the flight station, they stopped and a man came over with a few guards, looking at the costume of a person from the magic group, and looking at the badge was a magician. But Wu Tian felt strange, it stands to reason that everyone could see that he was the leader of the three, but the magic man was aiming at Wu Tian's back. Wu Tian followed his eyes and looked over, oh, it turned out to be Lilan. Not to mention that Lilan, as a demon with special eyes, is just because she was desperate about whether she could save her mother and sister before, but she didn't want to be like this in her heart, and her heart was closed for a long time, and her eyes made people look cold and godless. As she began to follow Wu Tian, her self-confidence was rekindled and her heart was reopened. As a demon, eyes are their biggest feature, and I heard that even people who are so ugly that they can scare people to death that their eyes can fascinate you, not to mention that Lilan is still a beauty.

"What's the matter?" Since pretending to be a child of a noble family must have the arrogance he should have, Wu Tian moved a little sideways to block the man's eyes, and asked arrogantly.

"Where are you going?" the man asked rhetorically, apparently unhappy.

"Yo yo yo, isn't this the Captain Wood of the Mars Magic Regiment? Look at his magic badge should belong to the Nath Kingdom and belong to the Guise Empire, so the people of our empire won't work for you Mars Empire. Just as Wu Tian was about to exert his might, another team of people came over, and the tone should be from the Guisi side. Wu Tian was wearing a magic robe because he wanted to pretend to be a noble child, so he wore the badge that he had passed in the magic society test.

"You ......," the man known as Wood heard this, and he didn't know what to say because he was already in a loss. However, the comer ignored him and made a gesture to Wu Tian, this is the etiquette of meeting as a member of the same magic society, Wu Tian is a test done by the Nath Magic Society, and he is also a member of the Guise Magic Society.

"My name is Shaode, I don't know what to call him?" the man said, turning his face to look at Wood, and then said, "Don't pay attention to the 'condolences' of the Mars Empire. "My God, it's really two brothers, one is not virtuous, the other is young, Wu Tian didn't answer Shaode's question for a while. But Wu Tian found that Mr. Shaode was not angry because of this, but his eyes kept looking behind him, and obediently gave the electricity again.

"Ben Nas. Wu Tian angrily moved sideways again to block Shaode's sight. This name is not made up randomly, he once heard Gina say that she has such a cousin, who has never moved because of his poor talent, he has stayed in the realm of great magicians, but his ambition is not small, and in order to improve his experience of going out, he also said that he would not return to China if he did not become a magician.

"Nas?," Shaode finally came back to his senses, "It turned out to be His Royal Highness, I don't know where this is going?"

"Go to Mars to see an aunt. Wu Tian also knows a little about Gina's family.

"I see......" It's a pity that this time Shaode interrupted Wood before he finished speaking. "It's going to our Mas Empire, it's my business. Wood listened to it for a long time with his breath, and when he heard that Wu Tian was going to the Mars Empire, he immediately approached and interjected.

"Even if Your Highness wants to go to the Mars Empire, what will happen? Do you still have to interrogate? When will the Mars Empire be so strict with the people who want to enter your country in our Empire. Shaode didn't buy Wood's account, and robbed this job before Wu Tian could speak.

"Okay, what do you need to do to enter Mars, the people at the flight station will help us do it, and I still have something to do. Goodbye Shaode, Captain Wood. "Wu Tian didn't have the time to spend here, so he called Lilan to pull the little dragon away, and if he didn't leave, not to mention that the time was not allowed, the little dragon was about to fly. Although Shaode Wood and the two were reluctant, they couldn't find an excuse to stay with the three of them for a while, after all, Wu Tian used the identity of His Royal Highness the Nas Kingdom, although Nas is a small kingdom, but the Nas Kingdom has a transcendent status in the three major empires, Ray Nas is one of the five great magisters of the three empires, and is the great elder of the Guise Empire's Council of Elders, so he doesn't need to look at the Buddha face if he doesn't look at the monk's face, and he really doesn't need any formalities to enter the Mars Empire. The kingdoms of Nas and the empire of Mars did intermarry each other, and on the basis of this relationship alone, Wood did not dare to interrogate each other.

"Lilan, it's not that I said you're ......" Wu Tian said and suddenly found that there were no words, as the master's so-called one-day teacher and lifelong father, some words can't be said casually, pay attention to the image, at least Wu Tian thinks so now, "Hurry up and find a veil to cover your face." Brother is going to the auction to buy stones or something, Xiaolong?"

"Stone, don't go!" Xiaolong was very simple, what is there to look at in stone.

"Okay, Lilan, you take Xiaolong to go shopping, find a hotel to stay in when you're tired, I'll find you." Remember to buy a veil. "Don't forget to remind Lilan.

"Yes, Master. Although Lilan didn't understand why she wanted to buy the veil, she had always listened to Wu Tian's words.

Wu Tian touched Xiaolong's little head, explained a few words, and walked away, asked a few people, and also knew the location of the largest auction house in the city, and muttered as he walked, "The sun stone is stolen?" I don't think the thief is so bold, just stolen it and auction it on the spot. "It turns out that Wu Tian is going to refine a treasure clothes for Lilan, the sun and the moon are the main ingredients, if one is missing, the effect will be far worse. Soon, Wu Tian came to an auction house, as the largest auction house in the giant city of Victor City, it does have a place it can claim, no matter the pomp, the complete variety of places makes no one find an excuse to talk about. As soon as Wu Tian arrived at the auction hall, he did not immediately walk to the side leading to the auction hall, although the pomp and circumstance there was the largest, and more than a dozen beautiful hostesses lined up at the gate to greet the guests. Wu Tian came to a blacksmith shop for the first time, and he wanted to build something.

"This is ......" When Wu Tian took out a pattern and showed it to the blacksmith, an old blacksmith with a black carbon face snatched the pattern from the blacksmith holding the pattern, and said two words in surprise and couldn't say it because of excitement. After a long time, "That's right, it's a goblin drawing." After speaking, he stared at Wu Tian up and down with his glowing eyes.

"Ahem, that's right, this is a goblin drawing, do you think you can make it?" Wu Tian looked a little uncomfortable for him.

"You've found the right person, it's useless for you to find anyone but me in Victor City. The old blacksmith said proudly.

"Yes, my teacher is the best blacksmith in the city. The younger blacksmith, who had been holding the drawings, said with the same pride.

"That's good, how about I want the goods in two days?" Wu Tian was not satisfied with the level he could do.

"Two days?" the old blacksmith widened, "Impossible!" "Although he is very good, he is not a goblin clan, this thing is said to be made, this is a very complicated furnace, not only the internal structure is complex, but also to carve out a variety of arrays that can withstand the magic array, this is the characteristic of the goblin works, can use the magic array to make the work to the greatest effect.

"It's made in two days, and the drawing is yours. Wu Tian threw out the sugar-coated cannonball, you must know that the goblin drawings are very complicated, and you can't write them all down by doing it once, and you can't have time to copy it in two days, and you can't copy it if you are not a master who has extraordinary craftsmanship in the manufacturing industry.

"This ......" the old blacksmith was really moved, and when a master blacksmith saw the coveted pattern and told him how not to be moved, finally he gritted his teeth, "Okay, the delivery will be delivered in two days." ”

"Very good, I'll pick it up in two days, give! Wu Tian threw a green crystal to the young blacksmith.

"This ...... Teacher, how much do we charge?" he didn't know how much he should earn when he saw this for the first time.

"Whatever!" But the old blacksmith didn't care how much he earned, and put all his mind on the drawings, "Go and call your father." "It turns out that there is a master blacksmith in the city, the two masters are brothers and best friends, not only teach their own skills to their sons, but also exchange sons with each other to teach their skills as disciples, now he alone cannot complete this refining furnace in two days, and such a good opportunity If you don't call an old friend, you will definitely complain to death afterwards.

After coming out of the blacksmith shop, Wu Tian went to the stall near the auction hall for a long time to buy some accessories. The things needed for the auxiliary materials are not rare, and they can be bought quickly, but even if the two main ingredients Sun and Moon Stone are rare, it is estimated that no one will sell them on the stall, so they can only try their luck in the auction hall. These two things are the main ingredients for the manufacture of high-grade armor, and he estimates that there will be, but the chance of two appearing at the same time and in the same place at the same time is relatively small, and he just stole a sun stone last night, and it is really difficult to say whether there will be a sun stone auction today. As soon as he arrived at the door of the auction hall, he didn't need to speak, and quickly asked the waitress to complete the necessary formalities and walk into the auction hall with a black mask.

Wu Tian found a place to sit down according to his auction number, just in time, it was already full of people, and the auction was about to start. Wu Tian pretended to inadvertently turn his head and glanced not far from his right hand, and saw that someone might have noticed him and turned his head to the side and pretended not to pay attention to him. Hmph, it's not annoying to be stared at by Gies, but as long as you don't mess with me, I don't bother to pay attention to you. Wu Tian thought so in his heart, and he didn't say anything.

"Did you find out?" and the person who found it for Wu Tian was also muttering, yes, he was the man in black who had been staring at Wu Tian, although he was staring, he didn't dare to take action without an order from above. However, he was still surprised when Gisne reported that Gis's energy array had disappeared, but he was surprised that there was still no order to act, but he did not dare to move without an order.

Soon, the auction began, with the standard opening remarks, and an old host was there to make a decision. The same thing was put up for auction, but there were no two stones of the sun and moon that Wu Tian needed. "Now auction a map," the host suddenly took out a flat, transparent box containing an old map, "This map is very old, I don't know what year it is, and the handwriting has been blurred in the map labeling, but there is still a line of small words that say 'magical power'." The initial selling price of this item is 100,000 gold coins. As soon as the old host finished what he should have said, the auction began. The people at the bottom may not be able to react at once, and they don't know whether they should vote or not, after all, no one knows the origin of an old map, and the labels are blurred, so it is a bit difficult to make people believe it with just five words. The host was a little embarrassed, he didn't expect there to be a cold scene, but he thought it was definitely a treasure, the material of the map was of the highest quality, and it could withstand the wear and tear of the years, but it seemed that it had gone through hundreds of years before it was lost to the way it is now, but this also showed its authenticity, so he was positioned as a treasure The initial selling price was also set at 100,000 gold coins, but I didn't expect no one to care.

"200,000 gold coins!" Suddenly a person shouted, "Brush!" In an instant, everyone turned their heads to look, but they couldn't see people clearly because they were covered with black masks. "Could it be Tuo!" Everyone still couldn't make up their minds for a while, there are quite a lot of liars in this world, and it depends on everyone's eyes whether they vote or not. "300,000!" Finally, someone still couldn't help it, afraid that they would really miss out on the treasure. After he finished shouting, the first person who shouted was silent, which made the hearts of the people who had just called 300,000 cold, and the word "To!" sounded in his heart. Seeing this, the others also stopped thinking, and no one continued to vote. "400,000!" Just as the host took the second shot, the person who had just called 200,000 added another 100,000, and this time everyone was silent, and they were afraid of being a fish in the water. But when the host slapped it for the second time, someone couldn't help it: "500,000!", "600,000!" This time, I didn't expect that as soon as the voice started, the person who was the first to shout directly increased to 600,000. "To! It must be To!" everyone had this thought in their hearts at the same time, unless he knew the inside story of this map, or it must be To, and everyone couldn't get the origin of this map, he used to be a half-day bargain, this time it was better to add it directly, maybe there would be a cat. Everyone stopped thinking and stopped raising the price, after all, I don't know the origin of the figure and can't get its value, even if it is a magical power, he can magically cross the hero bridge, if you have the ability, you can enter the academy to participate in the exchange competition, and you can't get the magical power if you don't have the ability. Then the presiding three clapper maps belonged to the first person to shout, this person was Wu Tian, he didn't want to clap, because even if he had the strength, he didn't have time, he only wanted the energy array left by Karma, but he suddenly thought of something very important that made him make a move. Of course, he also added certain skills in the filming process, and he can't be a fish in the water if he has a lot of money.

Until the end, the auction did not have the sun and moon stones that Wu Tian wanted, and Wu Tian had no choice but to go to the item delivery office in disappointment and hand over the number of gold coins he called for the auction to receive the map he had put up for auction, and then took off his black clothes and black mask and came out of a small door and went back to Lilan in disappointment.
