Chapter 4 Don't Work

The magic words rang out, making a "dingding" sound.

Rick put down the ice pillow, pulled the bell, and answered the magic word.

"Hello Dragon's Magic Library. Rick said.

Although it was connected, the bell did not make any sound.

Seren and Nemo both came over, and the three of them stared at the devil with suspicious expressions.

Xi Ke cut off the magic words, and the magic words immediately rang again, and Xi Ke connected the magic words, but there was still no sound.

"Who's playing a prank silent trick!" Rick scolded, cutting off the devil's words again.

Immediately, the magic words rang out again.

Xi Ke hesitated, but still pulled the bell to answer the magic word.

There was a snorting sound of a drink sucking through a straw from inside, and then the voice of an adult man came out: "Xike, I'm sorry, it's me, the director of the Mage Practice Administration. 」

"Did you hit the silent curse just now?" asked Xike, frowning.

"Noβ€”it's not much, I called my switchboard lady. Who would have thought that as soon as she opened it, she would stay there like a stone sculpture, not saying a word, just staring at the bell. I think it's scary, like I'm going to have nightmares?"

"What are you asking her to harass me?"

"No, it's not a big deal, I just want her to tell you about the benefits of work, and see if you will be willing to come out and work. 」

"First of all, I don't have any plans to go out to work right now. Rick said coldly, "Come on, you've found the wrong person to convince me. I don't want to be like her the last thing I want to be like in the whole world. 」

"Don't say that. I have a few good jobs here, so why don't you check them out? You see, there's a company that recruits mages, and the job is super simple, just use magic to make the garbage disappear!"

Nick rolled his eyes and said, "Oh, is 'confidential information from government units' considered rubbish, and will I accidentally become an accomplice of the company in making false accounts?"

"Otherwise. The sound of the bell flipping the paper said, "Help the accountant collect the accounts." You don't have to do anything, just go out with the accountant!"

"And then let me get involved in roadblock robbery, company fighting, murder, and violent debt collection?"

The bell was silent for a while before the chief said, "Rick, you don't need to think of every job so dangerously. 」

"Considering what happened to me before, I think the only safe place is my dragon's nest. 」

"This can't be done, it's been so many years since you got your mage license, and you still rely on your master to raise you. How long do you want to be an old man? Your father can't support you for a lifetime!"

"Unfortunately, my father is a dragon. Xi Ke sneered, "He will definitely live longer than me, and I can't help him in his old age." Anyway, the proposal is rejected, and I won't go out to work, zaijian!"

"Well, I'll call again. The Director let out a heavy sigh and cut off the call.

Syk turned his head to see Seren and Nemo staring at him with their lips pursed.

"You-"

Xi Ke opened his mouth to say two words, and Naimo took the initiative to take it for him: "What are you looking at, haven't you seen squatting at home?"

"Don't just voice someone. Rick frowned as he faced the counter again and began to adjust the teleportation circle.

A warm female voice echoed every corner of the museum: "It's 6:30 p.m., the museum is closing, thank you for coming, please don't forget your belongings......

The guests walked out of the various passages, checked out the books or walked directly to the teleportation array, and soon they all left. Zuihou is a large, human-tall hard-shell book that swings its cover up and down with a bird-like flapping of its wings, flies out of the passageway, closes and lies down on the counter, making a heavy crashing sound.

The book is a dark red silk cover, with metal trim at the four corners, a golden strap sticking out of the binding, hanging out like a tail, and on the cover there is a row of calligraphy written in gold lacquer, the handwriting is upright and calm, but the language used is too old to be understood by anyone present.

Nick opened the book with all his might. The inner pages of the book are yellowed, but they are still very complete, and there is not a single word in them. After Xi Ke opened it, it was as if someone was writing on it, and the words emerged one by one. It reads: Only that indoor stargazer remains.

Xi Ke smiled, closed the book again, put it down, and said with a smile, "It's time to get off work." 」

"What is this?" Serian curiously poked his finger into the book cover, and the book opened and closed five degrees slightly, blowing a gust of wind.

Rick put his hand on the cover and reassured the book: "The Great Magic Book of the Magic Book." The number one collection of the main library, which cannot be borrowed, knows the things of the Magic Book Museum best. 」

Naimo also reached out to touch it, but the "Great Magic Book of the Magic Book" shook the book belt, wrapped around his hand, and threw him over the counter on the spot and fell to the other end of the room. Namo rolled on the ground, stood up, his knees still half-bent, and scolded with a smile: "This book has a bad temper!"

Rick opened the book again and read out the new words that had emerged on it: "It says, 'Thief, don't touch me.' 」

Seren was busy clapping his hands, "Naimo's kung fu has improved. 」

"Oh my God, don't mention it. Nemo straightened his knees and stood, "Lord Naringer said that if I can't escape from him without magic, don't try to run errands for him, and threw me for three days and three nights. 」

"Can't you change bosses?" asked Rick.

"He's got a tie with my boss, and I have nowhere to escape. Namo shrugged and walked slowly back to the counter, "You don't know how terrible a black and white guy is! 」

"Ah, no wonder!" Serian tapped his left palm with his right fist, "There have been a lot fewer human traffickers lately, and no one under him has anything to do. 」

"That's a good thing your Banatu did. Nemo narrowed his eyes and said, "Lord Naringer is full of praise for those actions. 」

Nick turned his head to look at Seren, and then at Naimo, and suddenly there was a feeling of discomfort, a feeling that the two men were singing together and had something to do with him.

Sure enough, Nemo continued, "So, Rick, would you like to try working under Master Naringer? 」

Serian said after Namo, "The Order is short of men here, too. We need a battle mage, or a normal potion provider can do it. 」

"I'm not going out to work!" Rick roared with clenched fists.

"Okay, don't be angry. "Just don't say it. Nemo and Serenen took a step back.

Xi Ke adjusted the teleportation array display light to "resting" and was about to get off work, when with a burst of blue light, a young woman passed through the teleportation array and rushed in quickly.

Nick looked at the man and said in as polite a tone as he could, "I'm sorry, it's past closing time. 」

When the woman and Xi Ke met their eyes, they glared at Xi Ke fiercely, and Xi Ke couldn't help but wonder if it was the word "closing time" or "sorry" that offended her.

She wore a foreign mage robe in the style of Bilo Continent, with heavy and delicate makeup, and her long, neat and silky light brown hair draped over her shoulders, apparently carefully trimmed to create a light layer. Judging from the incomparably uniform color and the unnatural texture, Xi Kechai was dyed and ionized. The hair on one side is pinched up with a flower-shaped hairpin encrusted with diamonds, revealing a drop-shaped earring encrusted with sapphires on the earlobe.

She's not ugly. In all fairness, her appearance should be the type of beauty. With a slightly plump body, a round face, and fair and supple skin, it meets the definition of cuteness in general. But her eyes were ugly, they were the eyes of a jackal, and when she looked at people, she didn't see people, but pieces of flesh. Even though Xi Ke was face to face with her, she still tilted her head slightly and squinted at people. The eyes were clearly looking at the price of the clothes on the Rick, and only regarded the Tick himself as an accessory to the goods.

Although the Western-style mage robe is also a wide-sleeved robe, there is a clear difference. The traditional foreign mage robe does not have a waist, and it is rarely tied with a belt, and the mage robe of this continent is made and often tied with a belt. Many other details are also more labor-intensive in the local style. This design was originally because the foreign mages of Duozhou were equivalent to clergy in the past, and the tailoring method would avoid emphasizing the personal figure, and more emphasized the function of unifying the appearance. Although there are now expensive and delicate foreign mage robes for major ceremonies in public, they all follow the basic rule of "not emphasizing the figure".

However, the foreign mage robe she wore was made of expensive champagne-colored fabric, and the material used would change color subtly depending on the viewing angle. Originally, the foreign mage robe would not emphasize the figure, because this kind of fabric would unfold against the curve of the body and break the work. She had a parrot pin pinned to her neckline, and a pile of gems on top of it. The total value can be used to build a church.

The biggest problem is that this woman doesn't look like a foreigner horizontally and vertically. That skeleton is obviously of national origin.

Xi Ke's eyebrows furrowed, he hoped that he didn't show too obvious disdain - it was really a foreigner, the Aitaro people disguised themselves as foreigners, and they were nondescript. And although this guy wears expensive jewelry, he has a strong market smell all over his body, and he can't wash it off if he jumps into the sea. The way she wanted to pretend was completely incompatible with what she was, making her unspeakable from the perspective of any ethnic group in society.

She pinned her hands behind her back, as if her hands were handcuffed behind her back and she couldn't use them. In a voice that seemed to be reading a textbook with the intention of creating majesty, but as a result became stiff, like a beat, she said in a fixed rhythm, "I want 'The Customs and Habits of the Dragons and the Etiquette of Humans and Dragons.'" 」

This book has also been too popular lately.

Nick frowned and said, "I'm sorry, but if you're planning to return the book, you can just leave it here. However, the library is already closed, so you can't go in and look for books right now. 」
