Chapter 9: Secret, a soul that has been tortured for 300 years
Leaving Lilytris' grocery hut, the feeling of being stalked returned.
Aaron didn't know who was following him, and he didn't look back, pretending not to know, and walked quickly to the 'beast cage' that Guard Xiun and Trisy had mentioned.
The animal cage is a small, independent three-storey building, no different from other shops in appearance.
Outside the cage were two tower-like strong men, who felt exactly the same as the one at the door, and seemed to be knights.
Being able to have two knights in costume stand at the door as doorman security guards, the background of this shop is also extraordinary.
"Hello, I was recommended by the Knight of Xiuen."
The tower-like guard glanced at Aaron and stepped out of the way.
Aaron pushed the door in, and a charming witch in the hall wearing a wizard's robe and a pair of fox ears twisted the waist of the water snake to greet her, her facial features were delicate and flawless, and when she saw her, she knew what a red face was.
The charming witch exhaled like an orchid:
"Welcome, I'm Erin, the prefect on duty today, do you want to hire a guard or buy a slave here?"
There is a related introduction in the "General Knowledge of the World of Nairn".
The sub-human race, originally living in the second plane, was conquered by the wizards of Nain, and after hundreds of years, has become a member of Nain.
The race will usually have their own racial talents.
Some ethnic groups are born with divine powers, some ethnic groups are born with a keen sense of smell for various mineral veins, and some ethnic groups can vaguely feel the important nodes that affect their lives, which is called 'fate remnant'.
However, it only triggers once in a lifetime.
Due to this strange talent, this race was dissected after the sub-plane to which it belonged was broken by wizards, and the entire race quickly withered.
Somehow, the wizards stopped experimenting on them, and the group was spared the fate of being wiped out.
"Hello, I was recommended by the Knight of Xiuen, and I want to hire a guard."
"I see, please come with me, this is the price list."
Irene, the head of the fox ear, took out a form, and there was still a faint fragrance left on it.
Aaron is not the kind of person who can't walk when he sees a woman, he retracts his gaze and looks at the form:
[Intermediate Knight: It can deal with 30 ordinary young men with bare hands, and can easily deal with two well-trained 10-person squads when equipped.
Employment price: 3 gold coins per day, the employer needs to provide room and board]
[Senior Knight: Can deal with two well-trained squads of 10 people with bare hands, and can change the course of a small mortal war when equipped.]
Employment price: 10 gold coins per day, the employer needs to provide room and board]
[Constructed Knight: Able to use Zero Ring Sorcery, which can directly change the direction of a small mortal battle after equipping!]
If there are three Constructed Knights in formation, they can temporarily fight against the Intermediate Wizard Apprentice!
Employment price: 1 magic stone per day, the employer needs to provide room and board]
[Note: The scope of activities for hiring knights is limited to the academy, and there is an additional fee for the employer if there are other requirements.] 】
'The Constructed Knight is so strong?!' ’
Equipping can directly change the course of a mini-campaign!
If this were placed in the mundane world, it would be enough to become a legend praised by bards.
'Maybe the legendary knights who have passed down in the world are the Knights of Constructed!' ’
So, how powerful is the wizard who created the Knight of Fabrication?!
Aaron couldn't help but yearn for it.
"If the customer is not satisfied, as long as the customer can afford the magic stone, the wizard apprentice can be hired by the store." Erin said with a smile.
"You can even hire wizard apprentices here?!" Aaron realizes that the background of the cage may be even more powerful than he thought.
"Of course, this is the Jialan Academy with four principalities, two kingdoms, and one empire! Here, there is no shortage of wizard apprentices! ”
"As long as the price is right, we can find even high-level wizard apprentices for guests."
Aaron was shocked by the strength of the cage: "Your strength is breathtaking. ”
"Thank you for the compliment."
"Excuse me, if I hire a junior wizard apprentice, can I have him teach me the Nairn Foundation Meditation Method?"
"The guest is a freshman who just entered this year, right?" Even though Erin was asking, her look of determination seemed to say, "I've smelled your newlife."
"Your Excellency is right."
Temperament is something that can't be hidden from an expert like Erin who deals with all kinds of people all year round.
"No wonder a guest can ask such a question," Erin thought for a moment, and summed it up in one word: "Creative question." ”
She explained with a smile, "In Jialan Academy, no one dares to sell or teach others meditation methods across the academy without permission, including the most basic 'Nairn Foundation Meditation Method'. ”
"The last one to do this, the soul has been tortured for more than three hundred years."
"Three hundred years?"
"Yes, three hundred years, when I heard that soul was dying, the wizard would nourish his soul with witchcraft and potions to ensure that he could continue to be tortured."
When Aaron heard this, the whole person seemed to have fallen into an ice cave, and his beating heart suddenly became half cold.
He suddenly felt that he wanted to use the deconstruction of the first meditation rune to earn... The plan to help the apprentices of the same period is not so good.
Fortunately, he didn't stupidly hold up the manuscript paper and sell it everywhere, otherwise the version of this story would have been updated now-
A self-righteous freshman who relies on his own little cleverness to make money with the knowledge taught by the academy, that unlucky guy whose soul has been tortured for more than 300 years is finally waiting for a new partner this time.
Wait a minute.
Aaron suddenly discovered a blind spot.
Since this soul has been tortured for more than three hundred years, during this period, except for the freshmen of the previous sessions, there is a high probability that the new students in the future will not know this news.
They haven't heard anything like that.
And Aaron didn't think that among so many new students, only he was the most special, and he was the only one who was able to write down the model deconstruction of the first rune.
That's a child's idea.
In addition to him, there must be other freshmen who can do it too!
Extrapolating from this, there were many new students before him who did this.
Generations overlapped, and the number of this base number went up.
There will always be people who will want to make a profit from it.
So aren't these people also arrested and tortured?
Aaron asked, "Didn't anyone break this before so many freshmen?" There will always be daredevils who will use their cleverness to sell deconstructed images of runes. ”
Erin's fox ears twitched slightly, and she could see something in Aaron's question.
'Could it be him? ’
"This question," Erin smiled like a flower, and her white fingers raised twice: "Two Quinthals." ”
"I don't have any money with me, but I can sign a magic contract, and as long as you're not fooling me, I'll pay for it."
"Two Quinthalers aren't worth fooling you," Erin rolled her eyes, "but there is no such thing as a free lunch, and we wizards believe in equivalent exchange." ”
"So as long as you listen to my answers, don't think about paying your bills." Erin's slender fingers gently scraped Aaron's chest, and the sharp nails scratched Aaron's itch a little.
He didn't feel the so-called fragrance, and his heart beat wildly uneasily.
Aaron feels like he wants to pay his debts, and his heart will be pulled out by this fox girl!
"Do you still want to hear it?"
"Listen!"
