[There are still updates today. From now on, it will be no less than 6,000 per day. I am not a 2K party. Don’t look at the number of updates.]
"I'm Salin, what can I do for you?" Salin stopped and turned around. wWW. QuAnBen-XIaoShuo. Com The two swordsmen were a head taller than him. He stared into each other's eyes, neither humble nor arrogant. It didn't look like he was looking up, but rather the other was bowing to him. He seemed to have an invisible cover from head to toe, and the rainwater was blocked above his body, forming a curtain of water.
This is the eighth level 0 magic that Salin has learned, Invisible Shield.
"It's not convenient to talk in the rain, please come here." The blond swordsman knew that Chris was in a miserable state due to the rain, and the Viscount had repeatedly told him to show respect to the child.
Salin nodded and motioned for the other party to lead the way.
Living with his Qi and raising his body, Salin is no longer the orphan he was three years ago. His identity has changed, and his temperament has also changed. The magic apprentice may not have much fighting power, but there is a level five magician behind him. No force in Ceylon City dared to do anything detrimental to Salin.
When Jason kidnapped him from prison, the Viscount didn't even fart.
Salin's reserved attitude made the blond swordsman feel that the matter was a bit difficult to handle. After all, the Viscount had been rejected by a magician, so this child would probably be difficult to deal with.
Approaching the deserted tavern, Chris shook his wet hair and called the waiter.
"I want two portions of Lielan, um, Master Salin..."
"Give me a glass of water." Salin sat down face to face with the blond swordsman. He did not take off the huge leather bag behind him, but only tied the money bag around his waist. The blond swordsman was very sensitive to weight, and the leather bag on Salein's back contained at least a hundred kilograms. Judging from his underdeveloped body, carrying this skin bag seems to be effortless.
This body is definitely that of a swordsman, not a magician.
A magic apprentice with a strong body? Only then did the blond swordsman begin to pay attention to Saleen. It seems that the magician is indeed a mysterious and powerful figure. Three years ago, this child almost starved to death, so what kind of physique could he have
The waiter brought wine and water without squinting. As soon as Salin came in, he noticed the robe on the young man. When he heard Chris calling the young man a mage, he didn't have the courage to make any noise.
Chris handed him a silver coin and said, "Close the door. Go to the back. Don't come out unless someone calls you."
Even if it doesn't rain, there won't be too many people in this tavern. Moreover, these two swordsmen belong to the city lord's palace, so even the boss would not dare to object here. The waiter quickly closed the door, bolted it, and hid behind it obediently.
Saleen picked up the water glass and cast a level 0 magic—Toxin Detection.
Of course the water is safe, Salin is just practicing magic by the way. Anyway, that little bit of magic power can't be used for fighting. What's more, he himself sold highly toxic magic potions in Ceylon City. If he was poisoned by the potion he made, he would be the most miserable magic apprentice in the world.
"Master Salin, it was Viscount Guge who asked us to visit you." The blond swordsman's words were nondescript. He was obviously intercepting you on the road. If you were to visit, you should go outside the city.
Saleen smiled and didn't mind what the blond swordsman said. Almost no one dares to approach my house now. The teacher doesn't allow it, and even the city lord has to avoid it.
"I don't have much time. I have to get back before dark. Just tell me." Salin took a sip of water and narrowed his eyes.
Viscount Guge Frenier is the master of the city of Ceylon. The Frenier family has always been entrenched here. When the city of Ceylon declined, so did the Frenier family. From the second-class earl to the first-class viscount, he lost a lot of land. His Majesty the Emperor didn't even bother to read any communiqués from the city of Ceylon. There is no oil or water here, and it has been abandoned by adventurers and trading houses.
Salin's teacher, Jason Statham, is the first magician to stay in Ceylon City in two hundred years. Moreover, he is a fifth-level magician. As long as he advances to the next level, he can build a magic tower.
As soon as Jason appeared, Viscount Guge expressed his intention to recruit. Jason drove the person away, and Viscount Guge never tried again. The first time I chased people away, the next time I might kill someone.
Three years later, the Viscount came to find me. What good things could happen? Salin was calculating in his mind, without squinting.
"Master Salin, the Viscount would like to invite you to participate in the Hungry Ghost Festival." The blond swordsman took a sip of orchid, and warmth instantly surged throughout his body. Chris was wiping his hair with a towel, and the two of them looked at Salin, waiting for an answer.
"No more?" Salin was a little disappointed. Although this invitation was important, he would have preferred it to be a few hundred gold coins. Salin is now eager for money, and Dika's ability to receive goods has reached its limit. No matter how anxious Salin is, he can't wring water out of the stone.
The Ghost Festival is an important day in northern Scotia. Coastal cities will hold many sea celebrations to thank the sea for its gifts. This is the only memorial left to the continent of Mels after the death of the goddess of nature.
This is a festival for the common people, but it is also a day for nobles to show off to each other.
Viscount Guge knew that he could not invite Jason, so he decided to take action on himself. It is definitely a very honorable thing for a magician to be invited to attend. Although Salin is still young, he can still see this calculation.
"Sir Viscount, I would like to ask you to dress more formally. This is to express my gratitude." The blond swordsman used honorifics unknowingly. Salin's attitude made him confused. Such a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy seemed to have no reaction at all. He had no choice but to take out the gift, put it on the table, and pushed it in front of Salin.
More formal? Saleen looked at his robe and found nothing wrong with it.
What the blond swordsman pushed past was a small box, and Salin opened it casually, his eyes dazzled. There were ten magic cores neatly stacked in the box, each about the size of a thumb, shining brightly in the dim lights of the tavern. Under the magic core, there are several Imperial Bank deposit checks. Judging from the color, they should be in denominations of one thousand gold coins.
Saleen's heart was beating wildly. The magic core was probably a third-level one, worth more than one hundred and fifty gold coins each. The banknotes were estimated to be four to five thousand, which was a lot of money.
There is no need to spend so much money to attend a celebration and hire a magic apprentice. Even though Saleen has no experience in traveling abroad, there are many mercenaries in Scotia. No matter how difficult it is to hire a magician, he can still hire them with so many gold coins. At least it would be an official magician, not an apprentice. Salin understood these truths as soon as he thought about it.
The Viscount's purpose is to win over his teacher. If I collect this money, the teacher will find out...
Seeing Salin closing the lid gently without blinking, the blond swordsman felt something was wrong. He whispered: "Master Salin, the Viscount wants you to pretend to be a magician temporarily. This has nothing to do with your teacher. I still have something to ask you for help."
"What's your name?" Salin suddenly asked the blond swordsman.
"Ulysses, Ulysses Kuya." The blond swordsman didn't know why Salin asked his name.
"Ulysses, you go back and tell Viscount Guge that I will visit you at home next week when I go to the city. Now, I have to go back. The teacher doesn't like to wait." Salin smiled, stood up, opened the door, and walked into the rain .
He did not move the wooden box on the table and placed it there quietly. Ulysses didn't dare to stop or chase him. Salin's last words were a reminder to himself. Behind him is a fifth-level magician, and all means are useless.
In the palace of the city lord of Ceylon City, Viscount Guge was waiting for his wife with sweat dripping from his body. The traces of hard work in his youth can be seen faintly in the long hair on his chest and abdomen, and the muscles are very stylish.
"Hurry, hurry up!" The Viscountess was young and enchanting, her mature body twisting desperately. She had no choice but to return the favor with her maid at noon, and she was unable to do what she wanted at the moment.
"Nasha..." The Viscount slumped down and pressed on Madam.
The Viscountess pushed Guge away and looked up to the sky to breathe. She also knew that Gu Ge must be cheating on her behind her back, but for the nobles, this was not a surprise. Guge finally has some advantages, at least he doesn't associate with those dangerous women. The problem is that she has to find something to vent her desires when she is dissatisfied.
"Guge, I heard that you gave that boy 5,000 gold coins?"
"Is a magic apprentice worth so much?" The Viscountess is not ignorant. Her father is also a business leader. When she was a child, she traveled all over the country and saw too many strange people and strange things.
"His teacher is worthy." Guge became more energetic when he talked about this. He said to his wife: "I don't have enough money now. Ask your father to bring me another 10,000 gold coins."
"What do you think of my father?" The Viscountess lightly kicked Guge.
Master Guge got down on the ground with a calm face and began to suck Mrs. Yun with his mouth and tongue. The Viscountess groaned twice, patted Guge's head and said, "Come up here, let me ask you, what are you going to do with this money?"
Gu Ge hugged his wife and whispered: "In the past few years, your father has spent hundreds of thousands of gold coins on my title. There is not much problem at the Presbyterian House, but I have no political achievements here and want to restore the family. To get the title and land back, I have to do something to attract His Majesty’s attention.”
"What does this have to do with that magic apprentice?" Madam still couldn't figure it out.
"That magician refuses to come to my place, and I can't help it. But his students are different. I heard that the boy named Salin is desperately trying to make money. As long as I give him money, he will naturally do things for me. .”
"An apprentice has no ability." The Viscountess is indeed not an outsider. Even a high-level magic apprentice is at the level of an intermediate swordsman at best. There may not be any high-level professionals in the house, but there are still a hundred and eighty intermediate swordsmen. Ulysses is even the youngest junior swordsman in this area and has already developed sword aura.
"He is a piece of shit, and he also represents the shit of the fifth-level magician. When winter comes, I will ask him to accompany me to eliminate pirates. When I report back to His Majesty, I will say that it was the fifth-level magician. With the help of me, the purge was successful. By then, the entire imperial capital will know that I have the support of a great magician, and no one will object to the title matter."
"But if we are so poor here, where are the pirates?"
"I have executed many prisoners in the past few years. In fact, I have kept them all. When the time comes to throw them on the ship, who knows whether they are pirates or prisoners. The key is to let Salin follow. Get the ship I lent to your father, and I will This time I have to do it myself.”
"What will the magician do if he finds out?" Madam was a little worried. If she angered a magician, even a viscount would be prepared to die.
"I spent so much money just to keep that kid a secret. If he doesn't tell, the magician won't know. Even if he knows, it's because his students are greedy for money. What does it have to do with us?"
"Guge, you are such a genius, come on, come again!" The Viscountess held down her husband's head and pressed forward as hard as she could. My father's investment was indeed right. This Guge was indeed a smart man and a motivated man. There are very few nobles who are so kind and motivated. If it were someone else, they would just kill some fishermen to make up for the loss. Guge also knew to prepare prisoners to take his place.
