Mages Are Too OP

Chapter 38: bet

Views:

In Delbon City, a wide road leads to the front, with left and right intersections every few dozen meters. The square buildings with staggered heights also extend into the distance.

There were many hawkers on both sides of the street, as well as many skinny beggars, with a broken pottery bowl in front of them.

Because it was early in the morning, there were not many pedestrians on the street, but it was already very lively.

As soon as Roland and Beta came in, they pinched their noses in unison.

Because... it stinks.

The streets are littered with excrement, human and animal. In the drainage ditches on both sides, there were lumps of khaki color that could not be seen directly.

Red Earth Town isn't very clean either, but at least it's not that dirty.

But this is very medieval.

As soon as Roland and Beta appeared, they attracted almost everyone's attention, but most people glanced at them and looked away.

No one wants to cause trouble.

Beta also felt this atmosphere. He pinched his nose and said in a strange tone: "It feels like the people in this city are afraid of the nobles. Whether it is the businessmen outside just now, these are the residents in the city. The people in Red Earth Town are like They are not so afraid of me, and some people even take the initiative to chat with me.”

Roland thought for a while and smiled: "Red Earth Town is a remote town with simple people. The most powerful big shots there are Falcon and the mayor. Both of them are elders with relatively gentle personalities. Naturally, the people in Red Earth Town are I don't have much intuitive sense of the 'power' of the nobles, but it's different here. With a population of nearly one million, there will definitely be a lot of big shots. It's hard to say how many of them have surly personalities."

Beta thought about it and felt that this was also the case. The same is true in modern cities. The larger the city, the more densely populated the place, the more weirdos there are. He understands this.

The two of them were walking on the street, and the surrounding pedestrians subconsciously avoided them.

As the two of them walked, they saw a pool of sewage in front of them.

This pool of sewage is huge. Not only does it occupy the entire street, it is also very long. Neither Roland nor Beta can jump over it.

Many pedestrians walked over on tiptoe. Even if there were some yellow and white things in the sewage, they didn't care much. They were ordinary people and didn't have to be so particular.

The nobles, on the other hand, traveled by carriage and were not too worried about this situation.

At this time, on the third floor of the building on the right, a young man looked at Roland and Beta with interest through the window.

"Young nobles and spell casters I have never seen before." The young man looked pretty good. He turned to his companions and said: "But they seem to have encountered some troubles. What do you think they can do to solve this problem?" problem?"

Several noble-looking people came to the window and looked down.

One said: "I'll take a detour."

Another said: "If it were me, I would throw some money out and let the untouchables lie down on a human ladder, and I would walk over them."

"pretty good idea."

Others echoed, and the young noble who just spoke was quite proud.

The nobleman who spoke first said: "If it were me, I would go back and hire a carriage. These two are obviously strangers and not our locals. If they take a detour, they may take the wrong detour. The matter is too high-profile, it will hurt the hearts of the common people, and it will not reflect well on us."

"Hahaha, John, you are still so 'kind'."

The young nobleman named John chuckled: "Let's make a bet."

"What kind of bet?"

"If the following two people use the three methods we just mentioned, I will ask everyone to stay here for three more days."

"What if they use other methods?" someone asked.

"Then each of you will attend my sister's birthday party the day after tomorrow."

"Hahaha, okay, no problem."

Everyone was quite happy. What John meant was that he would then provide money to make everyone happy for a few more days, or go to his sister's banquet, which would be a good thing. No matter what the outcome is, it's not a loss for them.

On the street downstairs, Beta looked at the sewage and was a little at a loss. He scratched his head and said, "How about we go around from another place."

"Need not."

Roland stretched out his hand and pointed. A ball of cold air surged out from his fingertips and passed through the sewage, and then an ice road appeared.

This is a derivative of ice ring magic, and it is also a gadget that Roland has recently developed. It is not very powerful, but he feels that if used properly, it can be used as a freezing spell, which can be used in some special occasions.

For example, right now.

At the window on the second floor, a group of young nobles were silent. Finally, John laughed: "What an interesting spell caster. It's the first time I've seen someone who squanders magic like this."

Beta also praised: "Magic is so useful."

The appearance of magic caused a certain amount of surprise among the surrounding residents. Then they gradually calmed down after seeing that Roland and Beta meant no harm.

After walking over the 'Ice Bridge', Roland and Beta continued to move forward.

When they entered the city just now, they asked the guards guarding the city. The tallest white tower-like building in the city was the Magic Association.

And this magic tower is far away at the end of the road.

Delbon City is very big, and the white magic tower looks very close, but it is actually quite far away.

The two walked for nearly half an hour before reaching the door of the tower.

Here is a square paved with blue and white floor tiles. There is no trace of garbage and it looks quite clean.

The magic tower is made of pure white rock without any gaps, as if the rock was born to grow into the tower.

Moreover, the tower covers a large area, with an estimated radius of at least seventy meters.

Looking up at the top of the tower, Roland could feel that the tower was emitting a fairly regular hidden fluctuation.

"Is this tower a magical creation?" Roland muttered softly.

At this time, Beta suddenly said: "Brother Luolan, I won't go in with you. After all, I am not a magician. I plan to walk around the city to see if I can trigger any tasks!"

Roland frowned and asked, "Then how do we get together?"

"On the way here, I saw a hotel called 'Lamb Girl' on the roadside. I will stay there. If you want to find me, you can go there."

"Okay." Roland nodded: "This city is very big, so it would be a good choice for us to explore separately."

Beta waved to Roland and ran away excitedly.

Roland looked at the door of the Magic Association and slowly approached it.

As soon as he reached the door, one of the two guards stood up and stood in front of him: "Sorry, only insiders can enter the Magic Tower. Do you have a mage certificate?"

Roland was stunned for a while, then smiled and said, "How do I get the voucher?"

The guard said sheepishly: "Sorry, I don't know either."
