Chapter 46: Beauty and Ugliness, Light and Shadow

His gaze slowly moved with the magic broom in front of him, and Lanlos was very embarrassed at the moment.

He was lost.

The area and distribution of Silvermoon City are far more complex than expected, and unlike the human pursuit of order, the elves prefer to do whatever they want.

There was no pattern to follow along the winding road, and if it weren't for the help of the guards, Lanlos might not even be able to get out of the court.

But the only thing to be thankful for is that it is said that there is no dead end in Silvermoon City, as long as you follow the path under your feet, you can make a way even if you pass through other people's shops or houses!

Yes, that's how willful! As long as you follow the road, you will definitely be able to reach the city gate!

It's a pity that this point is for people who know the direction, and a first-time visitor like Lanlos has already circled the same place countless times......

Thankfully, the street signs in Silvermoon City are all written in magic ink, and they emit a conspicuous red light even during the day. Coupled with the patrolling mechanical sentinels and elven guards, he finally found the location of the Garden Market.

What made him feel unhappy was that because of his fresh faces, these guards of Silvermoon City always pulled him to ask questions, and their high-spirited appearance made Lanlos want to shoot a fireball in his face.

But now, all the unhappiness in his heart has been put aside.

In front of you is a large square, the edges of which are beautifully rendered with flowers and golden trees, and the petals and leaves shimmer in the twilight. At the center is a huge fountain with lifelike elven sculptures.

A young couple sits or lies down in the garden, filling the whole square with the smell of youth.

Such a beautiful scenery is really refreshing.

Lanlos accepted the sudden dog food almost with tears in his laughter, and immediately turned his attention elsewhere.

Although it is a street market, there is no sound of shouting, and the chic elf huts are hidden behind the shadows of flowers and trees, and the doors are wide open, and even if there are no signs, you can clearly see the goods inside.

This is where Alona gave Lanlos the task, procuring raw materials for the teaching of enchantments, inscriptions, and alchemy.

Lanlos is also interested in these professional abilities, not only for their ability to improve, but more importantly, for the gold they can bring......

"Thanks, Sasray, that's enough. Ticking the last column of the order and signing it, Lanlos thanked him heartily.

"Needless to say, Alona usually takes good care of us merchants, and that's what we should. Smiling lightly, the grocery store owner's enthusiasm made Lanlos slightly uncomfortable.

There are also many shops in the royal court, but those shopkeepers rely on the name of the aristocratic industry and the backstage, and they all look at people with their nostrils, so it is no wonder that Alona is reluctant to place orders there.

"Now that you've taken the inventory, I'll help you get into the wagon. ”

Glancing at the dim sky outside, Lan Luos stopped the attentive boss in time: "That's not necessary, it's not early, I'd better wait for tomorrow dawn to do it myself." ”

"Okay, I'll help you book tomorrow's carriage now. ”

As soon as the words of "......" fell, X ran out in a hurry, and Lanlos didn't pay attention for a while but couldn't stop it.

This person is too enthusiastic, and it's not good...... Am I being too hypocritical?

Laughing at himself, Lanlos couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Originally, I thought it would be very troublesome, but I didn't expect Sasray to be so caring, and he had already prepared the materials in the order, and even gave a generous discount. Because of this, Lanlos had a lot of gold left.

Although it is public money, it is still necessary to spend stingily.

The light shines through the light veil, casting dreamy blurred colors, and the gold paint on the second-floor railing complements the patterns on the walls, creating a sense of luxury. Upholstered leather chairs, diamond-encrusted cutlery, and a faint scent of expensive wine in the basement.

The lavish dΓ©cor of this inn is no less than that of the Tower of the Sunrage.

Lanloth stood in the doorway for a moment, watching the magical jewels and inscriptions being used as embellishments, and he couldn't help but swallow again.

"Hehe, welcome little handsome guy, do you need any help?" The bright dress has a high degree of exposure, and although the proprietress is old, she is still full of charm, and her provocative smile makes Lan Luo mistakenly think that she has gone to the wrong room.

Fortunately, the information age he experienced in the past allowed Lanlos to broaden his horizons without leaving home, and he did not lose his temper with hundreds of G's of classic films on the hard drive.

"Are there any rooms available?"

"Of course, though. The proprietress paused, slowly closing the distance between herself and Lanlos, and said almost in his ear, "Would you rather live alone, or two?"

A rush of blood rushed to his head, and Lanlos couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, but remembering Alona's sternness and the consequences of embezzlement of public funds, he just smiled politely at the other party: "Alone." ”

High consumption means high service, Lan Luo is wearing a loose pajamas, sitting on the balcony and watching the night view of Silvermoon City, behind a maid is ready to refill the wine.

Neon-like colored lights lit up the blocks, and not far away there were faint melodious and crisp singing voices and laughter of men and women......

Everything looks so beautiful, like heaven on earth.

It's a pity that as an outsider, Lanlos saw a different scene under this glamorous appearance.

In corners where the glow of the sunwell and magic lamps does not shine, one or two ragged homeless men can be seen drinking from time to time, and it is not known whether it is for the yesterday when nothing has been achieved, or for tomorrow where the future cannot be seen.

Quel'Salas's welfare policy is generous, but unfortunately, under layers of exploitation, the livelihood of ordinary people is still difficult to guarantee.

The High Elves were never a perfect race, they believed in the theory of descent. Like hereditary thrones and ranger generals like the Sunchasers and Windranger families, even the inner city of Silvermoon City is inhabited by 'status' nobles.

However, unlike the former, who dedicated himself to Quel'Salas, the aristocratic circle was mixed, and many incompetent people inherited the honor and wealth of their ancestors, but only knew how to squander and enjoy themselves, and their erosive attitude to life affected a large number of young talents.

In order to prevent future generations from joining the line, famous families like Windranger moved out of Silvermoon City early, and did not hesitate to take root on the war-torn border.

But the human mind is unpredictable, not all nobles have such thoughts, more people are greedy for pleasure than devotion and glory.

This is also a stain that has always been criticized by the High Elf society.

It is not that the royal court is unaware of the impact of this class disparity, but the influence of the aristocracy on Quel'Thallas is not only in tradition, power and wealth, which makes Quel'Thalas's brilliant development inseparable from these nobles.

This is the reality, the helpless and cruel reality.

Whether it is a Datong society or a class society, there are advantages and disadvantages. Just because Lanlos doesn't like it doesn't mean he wants to change, and besides, he doesn't have the ability to change now.

Raising his glass to the sleepy homeless man in the corner, Lanlos threw his head back and drank it down, feeling no satisfaction except the warmth of his throat and abdomen.

It's better to throw a fireball!

Shaking his head, Lanloth walked over to the large soft bed, ready for the next dawn.

He didn't notice that the drunken homeless man in the corner held up the bottle to where he had just been.

PS: Alona's reward of the Arcane Staff adds the attribute of spell storage, which has been changed above.

Thank you for the tip of the small rotating fan, and everyone for your support!
