Chapter 42: The Caravan
Getting up from the bed and glancing at the empty rooms around him, Sean suddenly felt an urge to buy a few slaves.
Although many troubles in life can be solved with spells, there will still be some inconveniences, and in addition, the spiritual needs are also lacking in him.
Every day, in addition to alchemy, it is to practice spells, and if you are tired, you will lie down and meditate, this kind of life is too boring and boring to make people not interested.
But due to poor economic conditions, Sean can't spend a lot of gold coins on satisfying his desires, don't look at the more than 2,000 gold coins in his treasure chest, just this little money, buy a slightly more beautiful elf slave and there will be nothing left.
Naturally, there are cheap slaves in the slave market, but Sean's vision is quite high, and he can't look down on those crooked melons and cracked dates at all, so he can only endure it for a while, and wait until he becomes stronger.
Pack up everything you want to take with you, and use the levitation technique to keep the chest with some of the defenses unguarded.
Sean glanced back at the house where he had lived for more than half a year, and said goodbye silently in his heart.
Dozens of bottles of newly made potions have been sent out in the past two days, including this house, which still has a few months to expire, and has also been handed over by Sean to Fryk to dispose of.
More than half a year ago, he came to Ryan City alone with a dozen gold coins, and after a long period of struggle, Sean didn't know how much energy and sweat he had put in to earn his current net worth and raise the professional level to level 7.
Although this speed is terrifyingly fast for others, Sean is not satisfied, he wants to go to bigger places, get more resources, and rise to the apprentice level or even the official level as quickly as possible.
Only by becoming a full-fledged professional can you have limited control over your own destiny, which is what Sean firmly believes.
After going to Fryk to complete the handover, Sean led him to the caravan's temporary station.
On the way, he passed by Tarig's small shop, and after glancing at Shanna, who was helping in the shop, Sean sighed, and had no intention of going in to say hello or take them along.
It's a stranger who hasn't known each other for a long time, and Sean can only hope that they can ask for more blessings in the next turmoil and try to escape.
……
Led by Fryk, the two came to a small square.
Carriages and camels were arranged in an orderly manner, and merchants and servants were in a hurry, and it was a busy atmosphere.
Following Fryk to the front of the carriage, Sean saw a strong man with a scarred face on his back calling his subordinates to work, and he unleashed some of the momentum of the professional, looking not angry and arrogant.
"Good morning, Manik, where's your father?"
Fryk stepped forward and greeted.
"Huh? Mr. Fryck, you actually had time to come to us, I thought you had been busy lately. ”
"Father was in the carriage talking to the Ranger who joined not long ago, who is this?"
Manik looked at Sean carefully, a little puzzled.
It's a strange guy, he is wearing a mage robe, and there is a big box floating behind him, and the result of the mental power detection is that the mage is right, but this person doesn't know what to think, but he still has a pair of long swords behind him, which looks a little nondescript.
"Meet Sean Morton, a level 7 mage, and I should join you for a while."
Sean stepped forward and offered to hold out his right hand.
Manik was also very embarrassed, shook Sean's hand warmly, and introduced himself, "Manik Bruckner, a level 3 warlock, welcome Mr. Morton to our Ocean Blue caravan. ”
"Just call me Sean." Sean nodded, "I've heard of Manik before, you can become a level 3 warlock in your twenties, and you can expect to be a trainee in the future." ”
"Haha, it's not that easy." Manik waved his hand and continued to direct the servants to work, the corners of his mouth slightly curled, looking slightly proud.
Although Sean also looks young on the outside, it is quite unreliable for a professional to judge his age by appearance, and after Manik knew Sean's rank, he subconsciously thought that this guy was much older than him.
Frick listened from the sidelines, and couldn't help but laugh in his heart, but he knew how big Sean was, and this Manik's talent was nothing compared to Sean's.
After a brief conversation, Sean and his wife set out to meet Haythal, Manik's father and leader of the Blue of the Seas.
Pushing open the door of the carriage, the situation inside the carriage was presented in front of the two Seans.
The carriage was large, with enough space for eight people to sit without being cramped, and when Frick entered the carriage, the two people in the carriage looked at each other in unison.
Frick felt as if he were at home, eating the snacks in the carriage as if no one was around, and introducing them to each other.
"This is Haytham Bruckner, my old friend, although he is not very strong, but he has a flexible mind, and he handles the affairs of the entire Ocean Blue Caravan alone."
"Haytham, this is Sean Morton, a level 7 mage, majoring in the alchemy department, and his combat power is also good, I know that you are worried about security, but I took a lot of effort to ask him to help you."
Sean greeted politely.
Haytham looked a little older, his face was full of wrinkles, and even his hair was a little gray, I don't know if it was intentional or if there was something hidden.
The person sitting across from Haytham should be the same companion as Sean, and judging from the mental power he showed, he was a level 6 ranger.
Under Fryck's and Haytham's explanations, Sean gradually understood the current situation.
As the news spreads more and more, the places near the border are now a little uneven, and if you want to cross the border safely, you must have some self-protection strength.
Their group hired some mercenaries, plus the guards that the caravan itself had, etc., which was enough in terms of low-end combat power, but now there was a lack of strong professionals to suppress the formation, otherwise there would be some security problems.
They don't count on apprentice-level professionals, and now that there are 4 apprentice-level professionals, it's okay.
In order to prevent accidents, Haytham and the others decided to set off in an hour.
After discussing the situation for a while, seeing that everyone had no opinion and became familiar with each other, Frick left quickly.
He has a lot of things to do next, so he has to quickly solve all the things here in Lane City, and then run to Wagner City, the capital of the Wagner Kingdom, overnight.
Otherwise, once the news of the war is completely spread, it is estimated that the victory pass will be directly closed to prevent the impact of the displaced people, and it will be more troublesome to evacuate at that time.
