Chapter 123: Tower Agent (Medium)
As to whether or not to say goodbye to Master Battheon and the Night Fifteen, Jonah had a small struggle in his heart, and he was ashamed of these astrologers who had high hopes for him after only a few days of coming to the Astrologers' Guild. Eventually, he decided to sneak away.
The group walked up the long spiral staircase to the first floor of the "Pillars of Heaven", it was a new day, the selection of astrologer apprentices was in full swing, shouting, chattering, crying and scolding were all in full swing, and the hall was noisy like a vegetable market. When a third-level astrologer in his forties saw Jonah's figure, he immediately leaned over and saluted respectfully: "Good day, Lord Jonah." ”
"You, hello, I remember you ...... Mr. Zhai Sancheng, is that right?" the young man had some impressions of him, and when he was tested for his level, he built an enchantment to prevent energy from leaking out.
"It's me, it's me. The enchantment astrologer was pleasantly surprised, "I didn't expect you to remember my name...... The Lord of the Fifteen Kingdoms ordered me to wait for you here, and the following are the original words he asked me to relay: 'Senior brother, your character is honest and cautious on the surface, but in fact you are as stubborn as the old man, you will definitely refuse to come to say goodbye to me, and I will not keep you, the 'Pillar of Heaven' will always keep a laboratory for you, when you are tired of the adventure, you will return to Suiyang City, I will invite you to have a drink, neither of us brothers and sisters have the opportunity to sit and drink, talk to each other, and have no time to fight, what a pity, a pity. Be careful all the way!'"
Jonah was stunned, "...... Is that what he said? I'm so sorry......."
"The Lord of the Fifteen Kingdoms has left something for you. Zhai Sancheng took out a small red cloth bag, the mouth of the cloth bag was tied with gold thread, the gold thread was knotted, and sealed with three-color beeswax from the Astrologer Association. "My lord, he wants you to keep it well, don't open it in advance, only open it when you encounter danger, remember, it must be in danger of life, and you can only open it when you are desperate. ”
"Thank you...... But why?" the boy looked at the bag, and he didn't know what it contained.
Danny Stewart immediately interjected: "I don't know! This is the Oriental trick that is always mentioned in knight novels, the trick left by the master - although the stinky guy surnamed Night is not a master - has magical magic, and when it comes to the moment of crisis, as soon as you open it, 100,000 heavenly soldiers will fly out to defeat the monster for you!"
Elliott said, "There are no energy fluctuations. 100,000 soldiers flying out of a small sack are not in accordance with the law of conservation of energy, Mr. Danny. ”
"What do you know?" said the man of the Stewart family, "You can fly out of three mountains, a big river, fifty thousand taels of gold, and a stone monkey with infinite power! Only in the East can there be such a miraculous thing, and your conservation law will be invalid in the East!"
Jonah carefully put away the bag and bowed deeply to Zhai Sancheng: "Please thank Mr. Night Fifteen for your kindness for me, say goodbye to him for me, I'm sorry for causing so much trouble to the association, I will come back one day." He no longer hesitated, bypassed Zhai Sancheng, who was busy returning the courtesy, and walked through the crowded hall, laying down the smooth marble steps, and his companions followed behind, and no one spoke. A larger package appeared on Danny's back, which was the bag that Zhai Sancheng had prepared for them, filled with food, water, astrological information, and the degrees to travel through various countries.
The boy glanced back at the towering "Pillar of Heaven" and saluted the astrology tower with gratitude. "They can't see it. Let's go. Hannah Stewart said softly. The fifth-level astrologer nodded, and walked along the willow-filled Suiyang City Street in spring, quickly blending into the bustling flow of people.
"Don't send anyone after him, old man. Standing in front of the window on the top floor of the astrology tower, the Night Fifteen Kingdom pouted and said.
"What!Why should I send someone to follow him!" Seth Battheion, a ninth-level astrology master, glared, and his whitebeard shook angrily: "It's just an insignificant little kid! Am I not usually busy enough?"
"Then why did you put a moon phase shift star array on him? I thought I couldn't see it? Night Fifteen Kingdom glanced at the old man with disdain, "Isn't a star array without magic fluctuations just for tracking? ”
The master astrologer said, "You...... It's just a quiz!"
The Ye family laughed narrowly, "Then who is crying and shouting and begging me to come forward and give him that bag?"
“...... Hmph!" The vice president of the Astrologer Guild finally had nothing to say and waved his sleeves away from the window. Night Fifteen looked at the old man's tall and thin back and sighed: "Isn't my cheap junior brother very much like a person? ”
Battheon's footsteps paused, "Nosy. The old man walked out of the room without looking back, and slammed the door shut.
The sixth-level astrologer turned around and quietly looked down at the spring color of Suiyang City, "You came just in time. He muttered to himself, the centipede-like scar on his forehead wriggling slightly like life, "The water has not yet risen to its highest, and you are the first crack in the embankment that appears in advance, my cheap junior brother." Good I say......"
"Hannah, my mind is messed up, do you have any opinions?" Jonah asked the woman next to him as he walked.
Stewart's contemporary head of the house looked a little surprised, "What do I think?" she turned her head to the other side, pretending to look at the shop sign next to the street, so that no one else could see the blush that crept up on her cheeks, "Dad told us since we were kids that the god of fate would come naturally, and most of the time we didn't need to make judgments. This time, I just have to follow your decision. ”
"Snort, of course, everything is up to him. Danny immediately snorted.
The unicorn suddenly stopped, "Wait a minute, everyone. Elliott said, "Buy some supplies before you go out of the city, once you set out on your journey, you won't find such a complete arsenal store again." This weapon shop is said to be one of the best in Suiyang City. He pointed to a two-story pavilion on the right-hand side and said that the shop has two floors, and under the dripping eaves hangs a sign with gilding on a black background: "Red Iron Zhai". "It is said that in order to buy good equipment, you need to be more than ordinary people's luck. ”
As soon as he walked through the door, Jonah felt that the shop was very familiar, with all kinds of knives, swords, guns, spears, shields, hammers, whips, and garts hanging from the walls, and many strange weapons that could not be named, each marked with a frighteningly high price, but of terrible quality, and belonged to the garbage that no one would look at in front of him, but the garbage was still dressed in brocade, hung with red tassels, and placed on top of a golden silk curtain. "Ahh
"Yes, Lord Jonah, the information says that this Red Iron Zhai belongs to the same owner as the White Steel Anvil in the capital of the Tocharian Empire in the Southern Continent. The Rose Knight said, scanning the display on the wall. On the crimson jujube wood counter was an Oriental man wearing a melon skin hat, who was sleeping soundly, and several tourists walked over to ask for the price, and he only answered with a snoring sound. The tourist left boredly, but the shopkeeper suddenly jerked his head up, startling several of Pitchfork's companions. A series of syllables came out of the mouth of the shopkeeper with three wisps of goatee, and Jonah understood one of the words, "Boy." ”
"Boy, are you calling me?" the boy said hesitantly, pointing to himself.
"Boy, don't you call anyone? The shopkeeper beckoned to him, "Let me see what you have around your neck." ”
Jonah immediately became alarmed, "No, I'm sorry, this can't be shown to anyone else." He hid the necklace that the artifact Kurigala had turned into into his robes and took two steps back.
"Can you still eat it? I don't have any interest in a boy your age! If you were five years younger...... Tsk, don't talk nonsense, come here, naturally there are benefits for you!The shopkeeper of the White Steel Anvil has also seen this thing, right?" the shopkeeper said impatiently.
Jonah's mind was racing. The shopkeeper of the Anvil of White Steel did take the initiative to talk to him, recognizing the crimson scales from the ghost Bahamas in his deerskin bag, and gifted him the dagger "Blood Storm" to nourish the soul of the dragon in the scales. Speaking of which, if you pull off your mustache and replace your melon skin hat with a colorful hat, the shopkeeper will look almost exactly like the shopkeeper of the white steel anvil......
At this time, the shopkeeper couldn't wait, turned out from behind the counter, and with a single step he stuck to Jonah's side, and reached out to grab the necklace, Hannah and Sibby immediately raised their weapons left and right, and the admiral clicked into his load, and sharp silver arrows condensed from the snake bow, "It's okay." Elliott sat motionless on the back of the beast, "He has no ill will. ”
The shopkeeper retracted his right hand to the sound of the steam gun, and Jonah didn't even feel how he had taken the necklace, and if he had a knife in his hand, his head would have fallen to the ground by now. "Well, that's right...... What a mess...... This kind of fluctuation is a little familiar, ahhh......h
"Axetan, sure enough, it's her!" said the shopkeeper's chubby face.
