Gallen also learned from the two that they worked in the tax bureau and the water conservancy bureau respectively.
The Water Conservancy Bureau where Nini works is in the block facing the palace. Many of the topics of small talk involved noble officials who entered and exited the palace.
"Speaking of which, this morning I saw the princess's car leave the main hall and go to the side hall. I used to be able to see the princess guards admiring the flowers from a distance, but now I haven't seen them for a long time." Nini said casually.
Garen frowned slightly. "The princess is out of the main hall today, and today is Saturday, isn't the ceremony held the day after tomorrow?"
"You know that too." Nini glanced at Garen in surprise. He only said that he was also working in the imperial capital, but the nature of his work needed to be kept secret, so he couldn't tell. Didn't expect him to know this detail.
"Although under normal circumstances, the preparations for any large-scale ceremony are not completed until at least one day before the ceremony, but there may be some changes. The princess has a lot of things to deal with every day, and she needs to deal with many things." Nini said casually. "If I hadn't discovered the regularity of the actions of the princess' guards, I might not have noticed this abnormality."
"Speaking of which, I've also heard people say that the princess seems to have left the main hall early." Another person, Dylan, echoed.
Garen didn't think much at first, but when he heard Dylan say the word "advance", a guess suddenly appeared in his mind.
The trust ceremony is so important, is it possible for Avic to conduct it privately in advance? So as not to be disturbed by outsiders
In this way, as long as the official ceremony comes, it is enough to put on a show, and the ceremony has been completed ahead of time, so there is no need to worry about possible damage.
The more Garen thought about it, the more he felt the possibility was great.
If this possibility really exists, then the assassination of the Heitian Society is likely to be advanced accordingly!
He was slightly startled. Although he didn't have a good impression of Avic, he didn't have a bad feeling either. The main reason is that if the ceremony is really completed ahead of time, or even assassinated, it will be very unfavorable for the grasp of the situation, and the Heitian Society will be in a situation where it is one step ahead, step by step.
Thinking of this, he couldn't sit still.
Glancing at Danni and the others in the distance, he slowly stood up.
"Sorry, I suddenly thought of something urgent."
"It's okay, please go ahead." The two of them were slightly stunned, they didn't care, and said very politely that they would take good care of Dani and the others.
After paying the bill in advance for Danni and the others, Garen walked out of the bar and looked back at the name of the bar: Dew Bar.
Hitting a carriage directly, he hurried to the war guild. The matter of discipline Danni still needs a day or two of understanding and contact, but this matter cannot be delayed.
He must be ready as soon as possible.
*******************
war guild
It's still the Tide of the Kite bar.
As soon as Garen entered, a waiter in black came up to lead the way.
The two walked through the aisle and many sofa rooms, and walked into a small passage inside. There are rows of individual private rooms in the corridor.
After knocking open a private room in the middle, there was a child in black sitting inside, and two other people.
One was a beautiful woman with short blond hair, she was dressed extremely hot, and her short white skirt almost reached the base of her thighs, but at this moment she was directly ignored by the child, with an extremely embarrassing expression.
The other person was the former old workshop master, holding a black box in his hand, frowning, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Here we come." The child smiled when he saw Garen enter the door.
"Well, everything is ready?" Garen looked at the black box in the old man's hand.
"Of course, if two masters do it themselves, there will be absolutely no problem!" The old man stroked his beard and smiled. He stood up and handed the black box to Garen. "Just press it directly on your previous shackle mark."
Garen nodded, and opened the box. Inside was a rhombus-shaped silver metal hollow ornament.
Faintly, he could hear the gradually dense footsteps in the private room outside the door, which were obviously used to protect the hands of this transaction. Such a top-level item worth tens of millions, even the war guild has to pay attention to it. This place is not as short of manpower as in Iron Tan City.
He picked up the ornament, gently rolled up his sleeves, and decisively pressed it on the mark of the previous war shackles.
Something weird happened.
The ornament turned into liquid quickly, slowly melting into Garen's skin, and blending into the mark of the war shackles on his arm before.
Garen glanced at his attribute bar, and sure enough, he saw a slight change.
'Shackles of war:
Effect 1 - Eye of Isaiah. Effect 2—None. Effect 3—None. Effect 4—None. Effect 5—None. Effect 6—None. Effect 7—None. Effect 8—None.
Sharer - Angel. '
"A total of eight spell positions, are you satisfied?" the old man asked with a smile.
"Satisfied, very satisfied!" Garen nodded. "Should there be immobilization spells for sale here? Can you choose one?"
"Of course, please follow me." The old man nodded, looking at his face, he knew that he was in a good mood now. It is rare for someone to upgrade so many war shackles at one time, and also to buy curing spells, which will also bring him a large and generous commission.
Garen and the child followed the old man out of the private room, proceeded further into the passage, and under the protection of a group of black-clothed totem masters, they came to the end wall of the passage.
The old man reached out and slapped the wall, and the palm of his hand flashed white.
The wall suddenly rippled and disappeared directly in front of everyone's eyes.
Garen remained calm, and followed the old man into the hall behind the wall with the child.
The dark brown hall is circular, with a circle of glass showcases around the walls, and a cylindrical glass column booth in the center.
In these glass display cabinets, there are sparsely placed strange items of strange shapes, and these items are not very large. There are things like small boxes, living bodies with strange biological tissues, and ordinary objects that look like ores.
There were also three groups of people standing sparsely in the hall. It seemed that they were all guild customers who were brought in by members of the guild to choose the solidification technique just like them.
"This is the exhibition hall for curing techniques. You two can tell me what you like directly." The old man explained with a smile, "I can offer you two a discount of up to 20% off."
"Thank you very much." Garen smiled slightly. "Son, do you have enough money?"
"No problem." The child replied nonchalantly.
"Just treat it as if I borrowed it from you first, and I'll pay you back later." This time, it's thanks to the child, otherwise the upgrade of the war shackles would be really troublesome.
"It's nothing, I don't know what to do with the money." The child obviously didn't care.
Garen nodded, no longer being hypocritical.
He walked to the counter and began to examine them carefully one by one.
This place really deserves to be a guild of the imperial capital of a great country. Unlike Iron Tank City, there are only a few options for curing spells, but here they are openly released for everyone to choose from. At a glance, there are no fewer than thirty pieces.
Garen walked around the counter to check one by one.
The solidification techniques here are divided into three categories.
Strengthen the ontology class, strengthen the totem class, special class.
Strengthening the body is the strengthening of the totem master himself. This kind of strengthening can affect the speed and power of the totem master's release of spells, or the flexibility of manipulating the totem in battle, etc.
The strengthening totem is to temporarily strengthen a single totem directly.
The last special category is the most, including medical treatment, detection, night vision, underwater breathing, floating, camouflage, freezing and so on. These are equivalent to giving the totem an additional ability.
Garen looked around, but couldn't find the spell he wanted. Although he knew that the Eye of Isaac he had found was not an ordinary spell, but there were so many hardening spells that none of them had anything to do with it, and Garen was a little disappointed after all.
Looking at the price tag, each of these curing formulas is worth tens of thousands of gold wheel cloths, that is, at least tens of millions of copper wheel cloths. Two or three sets are equivalent to the price of buying a basic set of first-level war shackles.
Seeing a look of disappointment on Garen's face, the old man pondered for a moment.
"Well, besides our guild's own hardening spells, there are also some hardening spells that we plan to put up for auction. You can take a look in advance. See if there is anything you want."
"That's fine." Garen nodded.
The child simply told him all his savings through the black box on the neckline, and there were about 20,000 gold cloths left. This money plus the 80,000 gold cloths spent on upgrading to the fourth level, was a total of 100,000 gold cloths. This is a huge sum of money. Now even if the entire Terry Jones family sells all their properties, they will get at most 40,000 to 50,000 gold wheel cloth. This includes all fixed properties and real estate bestowed by His Majesty the Emperor, etc., all added up.
Gallon felt a little sorry for spending so much money on the child this time, but considering that this was a critical period, he couldn't care less. There will be opportunities to repay this kindness in the future.
After waiting in the hall for a while, the old man asked for a list and handed it to Garen.
The detailed information of the five solidification techniques is recorded on the list, which is obviously auction information.
The first of these five solidification techniques is imitated by Dara's hand.
The shape is a necklace pendant in the shape of a golden palm. There is no special pattern on it.
The effect is simple. Goldization, spending a certain amount of totem light or totem power, can convert a certain amount of matter into gold.
Although gold is not as valuable as silver in this world, it is also an important precious metal second only to silver.
I believe that many totem masters will like this thing, but Garen is definitely not included.
The second one is called Dark Blue Chain.
It is the same necklace style, the whole body is dark blue, and a white irregular stone hangs in the middle.
The effect of the dark blue necklace is the water mist field, which can form a water mist area with a radius of twelve meters after release, blocking the enemy's sight. The concentration of water mist increases and decreases with the strength of the totem master.
The third is called the Void Medal.
Seeing this, Garen became slightly interested.
This is just a picture of a black flame-like mass.
The effect belongs to the strengthening ontology category: after being activated, it can elementalize the totem master's body parts. If the totem master's level is strong enough, it can be used to avoid fatal attacks, and can also be used for long-distance teleportation. Of course, if it's just a low-level totem master, elementalizing a nail is not bad.
The fourth and fifth are all strengthening spells for totems. Garen glanced at them. One is something with a strong healing effect, and the other is to add a kind of cold attribute to the totem, which can make the hostile totem suffer. The cold damage is just much more powerful than the general strengthened spells.
"How do you sell this Aether Medal?" Garen asked, pointing to the third solidification spell.
"Your vision is really sharp!" The old man gave a thumbs up. "This virtual medal was snatched from the Heitian Club by the masters of our guild in a monster lair. For this medal, two Type 2 elite totem masters were seriously injured. Although for high-level totem masters , Elementalization is an inevitable way to improve, but being able to use the solidification technique to master this method in advance, isn't it an extra guarantee for one's own safety?"
"Stop talking nonsense, how much do you want?" Garen was too lazy to listen to his nonsense.
"This number." The old man stretched out four fingers. "This is the 20% discount I'm giving you both."
"Forty thousand golden wheel cloth?!" Garen frowned. He bought this mainly for the sake of elementalization. Elementalization is a means and ability that orthodox totem masters can do for a short time when they become aura. But Garen's path didn't touch the edge of elementalization at all.
Although the nine-headed demon dragon is powerful, it is completely at a loss when it comes to elementalization, especially the elementalization of its own main body. Perhaps through this thing, we can spy on the secrets of the elementalization of high-level totem masters.
