Chapter 157: Treehouse

It didn't take long for Sean to find the elves who would lead the way, and these "volunteers" would take care of their daily life during this time, and could provide some guidance and counseling services.

Their appearance is extremely beautiful, even among the elves, they are first-class boutiques, although they are not as good as Celia behind Sean, but they can still attract the attention of many people.

Of course, in addition to female elves, there are also many male elves, but Sean's aesthetic is relatively normal, so he doesn't pay too much attention to them.

On the way over, Reinado explained to them some precautions for temporarily living in the Silver Leaf Tribe, the most important of which is not to touch these service elves at will, and even must keep a certain distance, otherwise they are likely to get into trouble and pay a large amount of money.

In fact, they are all high-quality slaves cultivated by the Silver Leaf Tribe, and they are specially designed to serve guests on these occasions and will not be sold to the outside world, so their internal prices are often ridiculously high, more than several times that of slaves in the market.

If someone is blinded by desire for a while and does something irrational, they will not resist at that time, but will take the initiative to cater to the actions of the guests, so that they can enjoy unparalleled happiness.

But this pleasure is only temporary, and when the matter is over, the people of the Silver Leaf Tribe will come to the door and demand that the other party buy this ridiculously expensive slave, and if they refuse to pay or do not have enough gold coins, then they will take coercive measures to squeeze every penny of the target's wealth.

However, it is worth mentioning that the targets of this routine are professionals, wealthy merchants, aristocrats, etc., and if those who seem to be penniless and cannot afford to pay off their accounts want to do it, there is no possibility of success.

……

Led by an elf, Sean came to the place where he had been temporarily staying for the past few days, and he looked up at the huge trees in front of him, and soon discovered the strange in them.

This is not an artificial product that was quickly spawned by the Druyin, but a naturally growing precious tree species - "Sakaram Giant Mountain Tree".

It is surrounded by an elegant wooden house, with a wooden spiral staircase leading from the roof of the first floor, connecting it to a treehouse in the canopy.

Intricate and ornate runes and energy circuits are hidden beneath the bark and walls that connect the giant trees to the houses.

The ground floor has some energy substances stored in the ground, which is supposed to be used to activate these alchemy devices.

Sean looked closely for a while, and recognized that this was an alchemy unique to the elves, and it also contained a small number of elven runes, which suddenly aroused his strong interest in research.

"My lord, this is a high-end elven traditional treehouse prepared by our Silver Leaf Tribe for apprentice-level professionals, which is equipped with various equipment for auxiliary living and defense against prying eyes and invasions, and the energy required to use them is available 24 hours a day, but at an additional cost."

"The first table in the room is placed on the use and control of various equipment, if you have any questions, please feel free to consult us, we will practice professional staff to help you solve."

The elf who led the way took out the key and opened the door to the house, explaining to him.

"Well, no, you can go back."

Sean didn't even look at her, and waved his hand to signal that the other party could leave.

He was now so engrossed in the alchemy techniques he had applied in the house that he didn't bother to pay attention to anything else.

I have known an old book friend for ten years to recommend a book-chasing app,! It's really easy to use, driving, before going to bed rely on this reading aloud to pass the time, you can download it here.. 】

The elven attendant seemed to have gotten used to the quirks of the pros, and after a deep bow to Sean, she hung the key on the doorknob and walked away quickly.

……

After she left, Sean walked straight into the house, and he casually glanced at the instruction manual on the table with his mental power, reached out and grabbed it and flipped through it.

There is not much content in the manual, but it is a brief introduction to the functions and usage of those alchemy equipment, and there is no substantive content.

Sean tossed it aside with some disappointment, and continued to use his mental power to parse some of the runes and energy circuits buried in the walls of the room little by little.

According to his judgment, these runes have both Elven runes and Byronic runes, and the two are interdependent, and the fusion is relatively perfect, and they can play a good role with the energy circuit.

It's a technique that Sean has never touched before, so he wants to study it carefully, especially the self-heating water dispenser in the corner of the room, which makes Sean look very greedy, and keeps groping with his hands, trying to disassemble it for some experiments.

However, when he thought of the gold coins that needed to be compensated for breaking these things, Sean stopped his actions a little unwillingly, and despite his mental power and mana, he still used his mental power and mana to gain control of all the alchemy equipment in this house, and injected some energy into this water supply.

An indiscernible sound rang out from the water supplyer, and the heating runes in an area inside it shimmered red, guiding the surrounding fire elementals to continuously increase the temperature of the water.

"High efficiency, high power, low energy consumption, really good."

Sean's eyes twinkled, staring at the strange elven rune, and he began to wonder where he could get this knowledge.

Although the elves do not protect all kinds of books strictly, they are not just anyone can get them, and if you want to study and study, in addition to paying a lot of gold coins, you must also have a certain relationship.

Don't worry about money, as an excellent alchemy mage, the last thing Sean lacks is gold coins, as for the relationship, there is no way, if there is no suitable channel, it is still difficult to get relevant books.

However, Sean thinks that Reinaldo's side should have a way, after all, this guy's social skills are not bad, and he also has a trade license, so there will be no fewer elves who want to meet him.

After thinking for a while, Sean planned to wait to see Reinado before making this request, although this guy is not profitable, but he still treats allies well, especially for Sean, who has brought him a lot of benefits, it is almost responsive.

……

Pulling out a few glasses from the cabinet beside him, Sean poured a cup of boiling water with white steam and began to brew the tea carefully.

With no knowledge to draw on, Sean didn't want to continue researching, although he could produce some results by studying alone with his wisdom and mind, but this method was actually not very efficient and made him not have the desire to invest a lot of time.

And before he can do this, he has other things to do, such as teaching his little maid a lesson, so that she can realize her mistakes, which is also very necessary.

After using a few spells to confirm that the tea, water, and containers here were safe, Sean sat lazily in the living room with a teacup in his hands, and used his mana to take out a book and let it float in front of him, looking at it little by little.

Celia knelt quietly beside her with a heart full of grievance and uneasiness, and she looked at Sean with pleading eyes, wanting to get his forgiveness.

"Do you know what you're doing wrong?"

The hot tea slowly became warm under the effect of Sean's mana, Sean took a slight sip and said without even raising his eyelids.

"Yes, master."

Seeing that Sean finally opened her mouth to talk to her, Celia finally breathed a sigh of relief, "It's Celia who doesn't know what to do, she obviously follows her master's side, but she still yearns for the outside world, this is an unforgivable mistake, please punish the master." ”

Hearing her say this, Sean snorted coldly.

"You know it's an unforgivable mistake, so why do you think I'll continue to let you stay by my side."

"If I'm not mistaken, there should be a second-hand slave market on the open day of the elf tribe, although it doesn't sell for much, but it's still very convenient to deal with."

He put down the teacup in his hand, tossed the book aside, and quietly stared into Celia's eyes.

"No-no, master, please......"

Although her master didn't look like she really wanted to do this, Celia didn't dare to bet on the possibility, and she knelt at Sean's feet trembling all over, but she was limited by her master's previous orders to make contact with her.

"Please? It's no use begging me. ”

Sean put his legs on her back with an expressionless face, "In the next two days, depending on your performance, if I am not satisfied in any way, you will not have to follow me in the future." ”

"Maybe I've been too lenient with you before, and in these two days, you'd better think carefully about what kind of training you have received in this familiar place, and how you should treat your master as a slave."

"Otherwise, I would really do something that will make you miserable and regret for the rest of your life."

Sean's leg suddenly exerted force, pressing Celia's waist towards the ground.

His words were so cold and unforgiving that they kept hitting Celia's heart like a hammer.

"Yes...... Got it......"

Celia replied with tears in her face, apparently terrified of the future that Sean had described for her.

Just above her, out of sight, there was a smile on Sean's face.

In fact, he didn't plan to continue to pursue this matter, and he had a serious mental cleanliness habit and he didn't mean to sell Celia to the second-hand slave market, not to mention whether he was willing to give it up, just thinking of what happened to Celia in the future, Sean felt a little embarrassed.

However, although Sean won't really do anything to her, it is still very necessary to scare her, after all, if she doesn't leave a deep lesson for Celia, then how can she remember her master's words deeply in the future?

"Alright, get up, the ban is lifted, come and let me hug me."

Seeing Celia's reaction, Sean nodded with satisfaction, and he retracted his legs, allowing Celia to continue to make contact with him.

"Yes, master."

Celia stood up and sent her body into her master's arms, letting the other party play with it, occasionally making small movements to cater to Sean and give him a better experience.

……

……

In this way, time passed quickly, and after calming Celia's emotions with his actions, Sean threw her out of strength on the bed in the room on the second floor, and carefully checked the treehouse himself.

He made a big mistake just now, that is, he didn't carefully check whether there was any suspicious alchemy equipment in the house, but it's not too late to make up for it in time, even if the omission just now leaked his privacy, the other party shouldn't have enough time to spread it.

When he is away from home, he still has to pay attention to this kind of detail, if something really big happens, then he has nowhere to reason.

Fortunately, the Silver Leaf Tribe is relatively moral, or rather self-aware, and they are not so dishonest in doing anything in the house arranged for the guests, at least according to Sean's inspection, he has not found any alchemy devices that he cannot understand its function.

Even so, Sean took the local materials and burned several anti-detection one-time ritual spells in the house, although they were mostly useless, but he was willing to waste this time for his own peace of mind.

……

After finishing all this and placing the personal belongings he had brought with him, the knock on the door of Reinado, whom Sean had been waiting for, finally rang out.

"How's it going, it's all settled?"

After inviting Reinado into the living room, Sean asked as he poured him a cup of tea.

"Fortunately, most of them have been arranged, and the rest are urgent but not too important or urgent but not urgent, so it's not so busy."

Reinado shrugged his shoulders and spoke slowly.

"How? The conditions here are okay, right? The combination of houses built on the ground and trees at the same time is a characteristic of the elves, and although it looks a little scary, it is actually very sturdy. ”

"It's really good." Sean smiled and didn't continue to say these polite words, "How are these days arranged, is there a place where I have to show up?" ”

……

"That's not true, you can't help too much with things like transactions, I'm already familiar with the specific process, those little things can be done by the people below, I just need to command it in key places."

"If you have something that needs to be acquired, you can make a list for me now, I should be able to help you a little, and you won't have to run by yourself."

"Well, ......," Reinardo paused, "there will be a small auction on the last day, and there are a lot of good things, do you want to come and see them?" ”

"Auctions? Forget it. ”

Sean waved his hand with a headache and rejected Reinado's request, "I don't want to go, and I don't have any money after buying things, so it's a waste of time to go." ”

"By the way, I'm very interested in the alchemy knowledge of the elves, I don't know if you have any channels to get it."

After listening to Sean's words, Reinado looked at him in surprise, obviously not expecting the other party to make such a request.

"The elves shouldn't have this kind of magic book for sale, but it's not difficult, I'll help you contact you later, and I'll call you when there's news."
