Chapter Twenty-Six: The City Lord's Hall
After walking a few streets to the center of the city, a nine-story bluestone castle towered in front of you, two rows of silver-armored guards in front of the door, and the hall on the first floor was the main hall of the city.
I've only passed through here a few times before, and I've seen that it's crowded and bustling, but I've never been inside.
Liangchen walked in, the hall is about six or seven zhang high, four round white jade pillars at the four corners, a giant six-pointed star pattern is carved in the middle of the sky, and the star pattern is full of gems, dazzling!
A silver cord hangs from each of the six corners, and a torch-like chandelier hangs underneath.
The wick is a huge pearl of the night, exuding a milky white halo that echoes the jewels of the roof, and the hall illuminated is exceptionally bright!
In the center of the hall was a huge animal skin five or six zhang wide, on which was drawn with gold and silver threads a topographical map of the surrounding area of Demon Dragon City.
Directly opposite a row of bluestone counters, in the middle of the counter sat a white-haired and long-bearded elder, who was explaining something to a young man next to him, and beside him, seven or eight young people with green cedars were lined up on both sides, looking capable and orderly.
From time to time, someone would come up to ask or someone would take out something and put it on the counter, and immediately a young man would come up to greet him.
On both sides of the wall, there are all kinds of notices.
The notices are uniformly made, two feet wide and three feet long on kraft paper, and the contents on it are strange and varied.
Some are store promotions, some are sales materials, some are recruiting apprentices, and there are reward notices....
Beneath every wall stood a man,
Some are alone, some are in groups, some are silent, and some are discussing which tasks are easier and which materials are easier to obtain.
Liangchen also began to look at the notice on the wall.
"A large number of high-grade dense silver, depending on the quality and price are negotiable. ”
"For a long time, a large number of ice kiss spider tooth hardware and poison dart frog venom fifty gold bottle. ”
"There is no limit to the attributes of the lower-grade Lingbao longbow for the same level of battle axe or war hammer. ”
"Bounty Order - Demon Ugo, who robbed the city lord's mansion at night, wants to get rid of it, and now announces to the world that whoever offers the head will have a bounty of 500,000. Attached is a portrait of the man.
"A high price for the feathers of the fire kite or the feathers of the owl is one hundred gold each. ”
"Collect red crystal, blue crystal, ice glass... All kinds of gems"
“。。。 ”
There are always plastered all over the walls of the hall.
Liangchen watched it for a long time, and finally understood that this was the city lord's hall, and it was a place where information intersected.
The castle lord will post various tasks here, and also charge a fee to help those in need post various required tasks.
As a result, this place has become the most crowded place in this Demon Dragon City.
Liangchen looked at the various tasks while considering whether there was anything more suitable for him.
"Have you ever formed a team to go to Fire Kite Mountain to hunt Fire Kites? All professions are OK, and you have to build a foundation in the later stage. ”
A middle-aged man in a mage's robe shouted with a short staff of sky blue water pattern in his hand.
"I'll go. Hearing his shout, three or four people immediately surrounded him.
Several people briefly discussed the details and received a jade plaque at the counter.
Then everyone injected a trace of mana into the jade plate, and they were still muttering something in their mouths, and everyone finished doing it again, and then returned the jade card to the counter, and walked out together.
"To escort the dart to Windwind Island, it takes ten people, just build the foundation, there are already five people, and there are still five missing.
There is a Jindan period leader, interested in the speed of coming. Four or five days back and forth, the honorarium is five hundred. ”
Five or six people stood in a circle at the entrance of the hall, and one of them shouted.
I heard that there was a Jindan period leader, so I immediately surrounded a circle of people, after all, the route of Windwind Island is not very dangerous, and there is a Jindan period leader, which is basically equivalent to mixing the bounty.
"To form a team to hunt for treasure, you need a formation mage and a mage who is proficient in detoxification treatment. The treasures are divided equally. ”
Liangchen walked around the hall for a long time, and the minimum requirements he heard were basically to build the foundation period, and even some asked for the Jindan period, and he couldn't help but be depressed.
It seems that in my own realm, it is really difficult to find things!
After walking back and forth a few times, he was about to turn around and go back, when he suddenly heard someone shouting:
"You need a fire mage to dig up the ice kiss spider teeth together, and the realm is not limited!"
He stopped walking outside.
There is no limit to the realm!
Fire Mage!
Although he is not a fire mage, after such a long time of refining, he has some knowledge of basic fire magic, and Ye Lao also boasted that his control of flames is stronger than that of ordinary foundation building.
The main thing is that the realm is not limited!
Liangchen turned his head to look for the person who shouted, and saw a young man leaning against the pillar in the southwest corner, with a smile on his face, a simple face, a leather armor, and a long sword on his shoulder.
Occasionally, people in the past have one or two glances, but they are only swept away.
Liangchen walked over and sensed the juvenile realm, but he didn't sense the mana, but he sensed a burst of pressure, it should be higher than himself, but not much.
Because this kind of pressure is much better than the kind of pressure when I faced Uncle Ye directly.
"It is estimated that it should be in the late stage of qi refining. He thought to himself.
Liangchen walked over and said:
"You're going to team up to dig up the ice kiss spider teeth?"
"Yes, man. Are you interested?" said the young man when he saw the person coming, leaning on his body and leaving the pillar.
"In Xia Ye Liangchen, I don't know what to call my brother?" asked Liangchen with his fists clenched.
"Holy Thousand Mountains. The young man replied.
"Dare to ask what realm the Holy Brother is?" asked Liangchen.
"Upper rank swordsman. The Holy Thousand Mountains replied.
"That's also equivalent to the late stage of Qi training. Liangchen thought to himself.
"I don't know what level of demon beast that ice-kissed spider is?
Liangchen inquired carefully, after all, this is a matter of life.
"That ice-kissed spider is just a demon beast in the late stage of Qi training, and I can kill it alone.
It's just that the insect is covered in freezing spells, especially the ice silk ice net it spits out, which coagulates my frozen qi and blood every time, which is extremely difficult!
It's okay to kill one or two with my physical strength, but it's hard to continue. That's why I need a fire mage, just help me fend off its ice silk and ice nets. The words of the saint Qianshan answered the question in Liangchen's heart clearly.
"If so, I can give it a try. When do you usually have time?"
"I have a lot of time, as long as you have time. When Sheng Qianshan heard that Liangchen was willing to join the team, he said happily.
"Okay, I still have to be busy with some things during the day, and I can do it from evening to dawn, do you think you can do it?" asked Liangchen.
"It's okay at night. Then I'll rest more during the day and wait for you to be together at night. Saint Qianshan thought about it for a moment and said.
"Then let's meet here in the evening. Liangchen said.
"What, don't you go get a quest card first?" Saint Qianshan said with a stunned face.
"Quest card? Do you also need to get a quest card?" Liangchen was also stunned for a moment and asked rhetorically.
"It looks like you're here for the first time, so let me introduce you.
This quest card is a spell token made by Demon Dragon City to ensure the safety of all the people in the team, and a layer of spells is placed on it.
A makeshift team like ours, because they didn't know each other well, needed something that could easily restrict all members in order to keep them safe, so we had this quest card.
The card has a soul splitting spell from the spell master of Demon Dragon City, and before all the members of the team start to form a team, each person injects a certain amount of mana into this token to activate it, forming a simple mental connection, so that when someone in the team has bad intentions towards them, they can be felt.
This alone is not enough to ensure safety, and all members are required to swear a poisonous oath with the demon seed in their hearts, promising that the goal is to complete the task, and not to have bad intentions towards other team members.
In addition, the token is kept in this Demon Dragon City, and if it falls due to an accident, the Demon Dragon City can also simply understand the situation.
Renting a token costs 100 gold, which is valid for 10 days, and if you need to extend it, you need to add additional money. Sheng Qianshan explained to Liangchen.
"Oh, I see! No wonder I saw a few people talking to a white jade plaque. Liangchen said curtly.
"It's just that this jade plate costs a hundred gold, and the spider tooth is only one gold. I don't know how long it will take to earn this money back!"
When Liangchen heard that the token was so expensive, he couldn't help but ask the Holy Thousand Mountains painfully.
You have to figure out the situation, in case you can't even get the capital back, wouldn't it be a big loss!
"Brother Ye, don't worry, as long as you follow me, you can earn back the cost of this task card in one day. Sheng Qianshan patted his chest and reassured.
After all, you and I are the first time to form a team, if Brother Ye feels that my friend can be trusted in a few days, then we will make plans again if we buy the task card or not.
If Brother Ye doesn't have a lot of money, I can also put it on first, and when I get the materials, I'll take ten first. ”
I was afraid that this mage who had finally come would leave, and Saint Qianshan continued.
"Well, since the Holy Brother said so, let's get a quest card. ”
When Liangchen saw that Sheng Qianshan said this, he was really embarrassed to worry about the fifty gold catties anymore.
The two came to the long cabinet and handed over a hundred gold to receive a task card.
Liangchen and Shengqianshan each injected a trace of mana, and recited it again according to the spell on the jade plate, and the jade card lit up and became green and shiny.
The two then handed the task card to the counter guy.
The guy took the task card and wrote it down briefly, and then put it away according to the date.
"See you that night!"
"Okay!"
The two made an appointment to meet at the south gate at the evening unitary time, and then left separately.
