"Do you have identification?"

"Nope. ”

"Letters of recommendation?"

"Nope. ”

"A token of the wizarding organization?"

"No, there isn't. ”

"What do you want to do in the city?"

"I've wandered so far, and I've run out of dry food. ”

The soldiers defending the city glanced at Lance in some surprise and looked back at the senior apprentice behind him.

The latter bowed slightly.

The soldier continued to lie on the table and began to ask for additional information: "Name, gender, race......"

Lance took the trouble to answer his questions.

When he entered the city, because there was no token to prove his identity, he could only apply for a temporary pass. Unlike other inland cities, the mountain city of Gordon is adjacent to the demon's territory, and the control of Qiē is much stricter, otherwise it is easy to mix in with the enemy's spies.

However, even one qiē is not absolute.

After Lance answered a series of tedious questions, he finally stuffed two magic stones into the soldier's hands without moving, and as for the senior apprentice who was examining in the back, he didn't notice Lance's magic trick at all.

The soldier's eyelids were slightly raised, revealing a look of disbelief, and he immediately calmed down, and also silently put away the benefits given by Lance.

He nodded and smiled at Lance.

The next qiē became much smoother, and the soldier's attitude became much gentler.

After another ten minutes, Lance managed to get his hands on a green ID scroll. This scroll serves no other purpose than to resemble a temporary ID card. Lance is free to come and go in the mountain town for ten days and buy something, but if he wants to buy real estate, he must have citizenship of Gordon.

......

Returning to the human city again, although it is a battlefield area, the streets are still bustling and thriving.

People hurried to and from their homes to important places such as wizarding organizations and soldier recruitment points. Everybody looks so busy.

Lance also found that, unlike other cities, Gordon was built on a hill on both sides, so it seemed a bit narrow. The road is curved, and from time to time a large mountain wall appears. There are many taverns built on the hill. Dig a hole at random. Consolidate it with the application of engineering sorcery, and it's a room.

Even during the day, the tavern smells of wine waft out, attracting everyone to linger.

And in the distance is the Wizard Tower complex. It is particularly eye-catching. The Wizard's Tower was built to the west of Mount Gordon City. At least one-third of the city is divided between the Wizard Colonies. And the headquarters of the Supreme Council. It is also located on this land called "Nicholas's Eye".

Nikolai's Eye was originally the name of a lake that magically appeared high in the mountains of the mountain city, formed by the year-round melting of the snow of the western peak. According to the detection of the wizards of the mountain city. The bottom of the lake is also connected to several underground rivers.

The water is crystal clear, and on the shores of the lake, the wizards who first pioneered the mountain town set out to build their own wizard towers.

Day after day, year after year, more and more wizard towers were built in the wizards' gathering places, and the name of Nikolai's Eye was gradually called.

The current Eye of Nikolai refers to the northwest corner of the entire Gordon Hill City where wizards gather.

It was a place where mortals were not allowed to set foot lightly, and unless they were armed with a special decree, if they rushed in, it would be seen as a provocation to the wizards.

The remaining two-thirds of the area is where mortals should be.

This is the magical Marseille Line.

This kind of mixing of wizards and humans is quite rare in the Cleland plane, and it is only in the face of demons that ordinary mortals can unite with wizards.

Under the invasion of the demon army, it is not feasible to rely on a small number of wizards or mortals without supernatural powers. Only by joining forces can these evil aliens be kept out of the Marseille Line.

Once the Marseille line is lost, it means that the northern gateway of Crieland is wide open. When the time comes, the demons will once again flood into this fertile land.

This is something that every human being does not want to see.

What's more, for wizards, this also involves self-interest - after all, the places bordering the plane faults are quite easy to breed high-purity magic stone mines due to arcane interference.

So this step, they can't back down no matter what.

......

In the Eye of Nicholas, an inconspicuous mage tower, a total of fifteen councillors sat at a long table, each of which was obscured by shadows, and no one could see whom.

"The recent food poisoning outbreak in the city has reason to suspect that it was a spy. ”

A deep voice said, "According to the [Nightingale]'s investigation, the number of wizards hanging out in Nikolai's Eye has increased quite a bit lately. And it's all raw faces. ”

"The lake of Nicholas's Eye is the source of water for the entire mountain city, although wizards usually make their own water to drink for safety, but mortals can't do this, at least more than a hundred mortals have been poisoned a few days ago, and I must investigate it carefully. ”

The rest of the people were silent for a while, and then they all said:

"Agreed!"

"Agreed!"

"Abstain!"

Soon, the results of the vote came in. A total of 14 people, excluding the MPs who proposed the proposal, had the right to vote, three of whom abstained, and the remaining 11 people all agreed.

The scheme is naturally shun lì tong guò.

"My [Nightingale] is only good at reconnaissance, not good for capture. The MP who proposed the plan added: "I hope [Cheetah] can be dispatched." ”

The lawmaker sitting at the head of the desk said in a deep voice: "Approved." ”

......

Mortal Zone, inside an underground tavern.

Lance lifted the burgundy curtain, and the noise of the tavern reached his ears like ants.

A scantily clad girl walked past Lance and rubbed against him with a wicked grin.

"Get out of here!" shouted the bartender, "Delian." This gentleman is not something you can provoke. ”

The girl walked away in a daze.

Lance didn't think it was sad, he had encountered such a scene I don't know how many times.

When I came to this underground tavern a few days ago, it was pretty much the same. These novel experiences have taught him a new lesson: the beautiful girl who rubs it on you is not necessarily a prostitute, but may also be a thief.

It's a pity that Lance's things are hidden in the Amber Ring, how can these thieves find it?

The clever thief will immediately react when he sees that he can't find anything—maybe this is a wizard with a lot of money, although wizards rarely appear in the mortal zone, but it is not completely impossible, so he will soon fade away with a pale face in fright.

As for the bartender. It's a familiar face. Lance had also asked him to inquire about something.

"Hey, Tom, what's going on with what I asked earlier?"

Lance stood on the bar and casually threw a magic stone over: "Give me a glass of [Golden Years]." Do not mix with water. ”

"Of course, of course!" said Tom, smiling brightly, "the best has always been for you." ”

A few minutes later. A glass of golden years was placed on the bar.

Lance took a soft sip. The spicy taste immediately rolled over his tongue, and it was very enjoyable.

He had never been interested in alcohol, but the Golden Years were a rare blend of magic plants mixed with alcohol to make a fine cocktail. It has a slight effect of stimulating mental energy. In addition, this wine is indeed very mellow, so after a few times, even Lance can't put it down.

In the past few days, he has to order a glass every time.

"Let's get down to business. Tom whispered, "What you asked, there are already eyebrows." ”

Langston came to his senses: "Oh?

Tom was embarrassed and said, "You need to see it yourself, I'm only in charge of the middle contact...... However, the limelight has been very tight lately, and I personally recommend that you be careful. After all, the things you are asking about are all controlled products. ”

Lance smacked his lips and took another sip of the Golden Years, this time the spicy taste rolled straight down his throat into his stomach.

"Give me the address, and contact details. He said simply.

Tom hesitated, wrote down an address, and handed it to Lance.

......

"The warehouse district in the south of the mountain city, No. 71 of the third street in the north district?"

On the empty street, Lance walked alone. The bartender gave him the address around here.

This warehouse area originally required higher clearance to enter, but Lance used a little trick and sneaked in.

In the past few days, he has walked around the mountain city a few times and has a certain understanding of the city. Compared to ordinary human cities, this city is indeed more tightly controlled.

He tried many ways, but he couldn't find a way to buy food in large quantities - let alone steel, which was more tightly regulated.

This made Lance a little depressed.

Now the address given by Tom makes his eyes shine, no matter whether it is reliable or not, he must always give it a try.

While thinking this, Lance suddenly stopped.

Because he suddenly found that there were no odd numbers on the third street of the North District where he was located!

"That guy is obviously talking about No. 71 North Third Street......"

Lance rolled his eyes and looked at the street sign on the side.

Strangely, all of these warehouses have even numbers.

"Damn it......" Lance instantly understood.

At this moment, on his left hand side is No. 40 3rd Street, and there is still some distance from No. 70.

So he turned around and walked away without hesitation.

It's a pity that at this time, several swift figures suddenly flashed in front of him.

In an instant, a succession of six figures surrounded Lance.

"Cheetah do things, rules. One of them said in a hoarse voice, "We heard you're asking about grain and steel?"

Lance smirked, "No." This is definitely a misunderstanding. ”

"Since it's a misunderstanding, let's go with us. The man sneered and said, "Believe in the council, we won't just wronged people." ”

With that, he raised his hand, and a pair of forbidden demon bracelets appeared in front of Lance. (To be continued......)
