Chapter 3: The Celebration Stall
The streetscape of Ibro feels closer to modern Europe than to medieval Europe.
The roads are beautifully paved with earth-based magic, and the water and sewer pipes using magic tools have been perfected.
Horse-drawn carriages are the main means of transportation, but there are also occasional magic cars that use magical power.
Just as Huaxia relies on the advancement of science and technology, the world is gradually becoming rich thanks to magical tools.
Although there were no electric stoves, ovens for magic tools became widespread, and freezers began to spread.
In big cities such as the royal capital, there is a shortage of magic stones needed to supply magic tools, and some researchers try to raise monsters to cope with the situation.
"Oh, there's ice cream for sale, Horacio."
"What is ice cream?"
"You can know if you process the milk, freeze it and solidify it and eat it. Uncle, give us two copies."
"Okay!"
With the development of magic tools, there are now refrigerators that fit the right size on a trolley, so they can be sold on the go in the summer.
Horacio served straw cake-like ice cream on a plate resembling a sandwich cookie, and after tasting it, he fell into a state of fascination.
"Woomia! It's so cold, and it's sweet, Umia! "
Compared with the one sold in Huaxia, the taste is slightly worse, and the vanilla flavor is not enough.
But the milk is rich and the taste is not bad.
"Horacio, help me eat half"
"Didn't you pay, I'm a little embarrassed"
"That's not what it means, if I eat it all alone, I won't be able to eat anything else. Help me out in order to try all kinds of food."
The cowman Horacio is already about the same height as the adult ape, while the cat man I am only 80 centimeters tall.
If we continue to devour them, we may have eaten before visiting the various stalls, but with the help of Horacio, we can enjoy the food of many stalls.
The stalls in Ibro are similar to those in Huaxia, but slightly different.
Although it is sold like a pancake, it is wrapped in meat and vegetables, and it looks like ramen, but it is actually macaroni and the like, and it looks like a foreign festival.
Although there is no selling frogs, there are paper-cutting games where there is no shooting, but there are blowing arrows.
"Alright, Horacio, let's go aim for the fire magic tool on it."
"Huh? Miwoo, that shouldn't be easy to hit."
On the top of the three stacked chests was a white stone with a magic circle.
The size and purpose are similar to those of Huaxia lighters.
Five blowguns are a copper coin, and magic tools should cost about two silver coins in the shop.
The goal is small, and because of the weight, it will only fall and not fall in the mission, which is the so-called prize that attracts customers, which seems easy but is actually difficult to obtain.
"Miwoo, let's get the candy below."
"Don't make a fuss, aim for it. You're not going to be a knight."
"What's the matter, the bald head was discovered by the Knights? It's remarkable."
"Yes, today's Olympics are really good. Uncle, don't cry even if the fire magic tool falls."
"Hahahaha, it's just a magic tool of fire, I won't cry because of it"
The obese middle-aged dog man smiled and shook his belly.
If you fall a few times a day, you can probably make back your money.
The power of blowing arrows is affected by lung capacity, and there is a big gap between Hua Wuming and Horacio in blowing arrows.
Hua Wuming paid for it, and in fact, the task of blowing the arrow was given to Horacio.
Two copper coins were exchanged for ten blowguns, three hits, two of which knocked down the magic tool, but it showed no signs of falling out of the chest.
The magic tool itself is heavy, and it also comes with a rope that hangs around the neck.
In order to make it fall, you may have to hit the upper corner and make it shake as it falls, so that it can fall.
"Mi woo, let's go to the candy below"
"Don't give up so easily, uncle, try again"
"Hahaha, it seems that the cat man is more suitable to be a knight, right?"
"It would be interesting if there was a knighthood that specially recruited empty attribute cat people. Quick, Horacio, come on! "
"Do you want that magic tool?"
"Definitely. Quick, try again! "
Hitting the candy below, Horacio was distracted, and Hua Wuming slapped him on the butt and told him to aim at the magic tool.
The ten blowguns so far have been used only as a disguise.
"Okay, take a deep breath before aiming, and try again. This time, inhale slowly and stop. Aim! "
"Whew!"
The blowgun brushed only the magic tool and landed behind the curtain.
"Yes, it feels good now. Calm down and focus! "
"Whew!"
This time the blow shot hit the magic tool, but it hit a little lower than the countertop, and it only shook a little and didn't fall.
"Yes, focus three more times. Relax your shoulders first, take a deep breath, and go! "
"Whew!"
This time, the blow arrow passed through the top of the magic tool.
"Very good, the left and right are already very accurate. Keep it this way, relax, concentrate well, and get started! "
"Whew!"
The blow arrow hit the upper limit, and the magic tool tilted for a moment, then rolled and fell, rolling out of the corner of the chest.
"Great! Well done, Horacio! "
"Oh, it's falling, oh, it's falling, oh!"
"It's amazing. The owner seems to be really lucky. Come, take it! "
The canine's uncle smiled wryly as he handed the magic tool to Horacio.
"Great, thank you, Miwoo. Finally won"
"That's my gift to you. Horacio is a wind attribute, which is very handy for him when training in the field."
"Is this really possible?"
"Of course. It only cost two copper coins as capital, but it's a good thing, right, uncle? "
"Hahaha, this thing can easily be worth ten times its value."
The caninu's uncle was holding a new magic tool to attract the attention of the other guests, and although it was a bit exaggerated, Horacio's eyes widened when he heard the price.
"Miwoo, sure enough"
"Horacio, take it. In return, you have to keep training and become a knight."
"Miwoo, thank you. I will cherish it and will definitely become a knight."
Horacio slung the magic tool around his neck and smiled shyly.
Actually, it was a trick to let the magic tool fall down.
The moment the blow arrow hit, Hua Wuming pushed down the magic tool with the standby air mass, and slanted a ball of qi behind it, causing it to roll down.
Properly calculated, it didn't look so unnatural, and the magic tool made me shake my fist in excitement as it fell.
Although it was a bit too much for the canine man's uncle, Hua Wuming thought that they must have thought that the magic tool could indeed fall down, and the other guests also began to try it, which should be considered good publicity.
Perhaps, without cheating, it would not have been possible to make it fall even if three silver coins were thrown.
"Alright, Horacio. Next, let's go eat that! "
"Is the Black Oak Skewer really genuine?"
"I don't know, I don't know until I eat it."
The black oak tree can be seen as the black wool Wagyu cow of China.
A skewer of roasted meat contains four large pieces of meat, weighing about 100 grams, and two copper coins.
Converted into Huaxia coins, the price of about two hundred Huaxia coins is too cheap for the real thing.
"Uncle, two more"
"Okay, just baked, hot, be careful"
Four copper coins were paid, and I handed one to Horacio.
The cross-section of the meat is oval and at first glance it looks a bit like tenderloin, but how can the tenderloin of a black oak be so cheap.
The surface is crispy, but the inside is soft and juicy.
The rich flavor of the meat, combined with the seasoning of salt and mixed spices, brings out its deliciousness.
"Oh, what is this, oh!"
"Miwoo, this is so delicious!"
"Oh Black Oak, oh! By the way, uncle, which part of the meat is this? "
"How's that, it's delicious. Genuine black oak, what part of the meat is a trade secret"
Uncle Bearman smirked.
Maybe it's some of the meat that is usually thrown away, but I don't know much about cooking, so I don't know.
"Which part is this? However, it tastes good. Okay, Horacio, let's move on to the next place."
"Miwoo, where is next?"
"Next to the Adventurer's Guild"
"Eh, eh! Miwoo, you're going to be an adventurer? "
After completing the Rite of Awakening and lifting the magic seal, those who have lifted the magic seal can register as adventurers.
Most of the adventurers are confident guys, not only physically, but also in terms of magic, I am not a cat man for this profession.
"Forget it, let's go"
"Wait, Miwoo"
"If you don't hurry, I'll go"
Hua Wuming pulled Horacio, who had a nostalgia for the black oak skewers, and walked towards the adventurer's guild in Ibro.
