Traveling through time as a goblin, just wanting to live a leisurely life
Chapter 105 The Magician Enters the City
"Put all your luggage into the hotel and be careful! If you hit a corner, I'll skin you alive!"
Magician Schiller avoided ordinary people in New City through a special passage and entered the hotel where the magician was staying.
After leaving the task of carrying the luggage to two goblins, he walked to the streets of New City. He was very curious about what kind of city it was. There were so many ordinary people that the magicians had to give way to them.
“I haven’t been here for a hundred years, and there have been huge changes!”
Standing on the street, Schiller marveled.
Tall buildings, traffic, and crowds of people.
The world was nearly destroyed by the fall of a meteorite solidified by spiritual power a few hundred years ago, but it also ushered in an era of the rise of cultivators. After a few hundred years, cultivators have barely gained a foothold in the mortal world, and there are still only a handful of people who have ascended to heaven. However, mortals have already made full use of spiritual power and rebuilt prosperous cities.
As Schiller walked and looked, he found many ordinary people using their wisdom to combine spiritual power with technology. The cars running on the road, the big screens on the buildings, the speakers playing music on the street, the cash registers in the stores, the mobile phones in people's hands, the juice machines in the beverage stores, the washing machines in the laundry... all were driven by spiritual power.
Spiritual power exists in the air, everywhere. Ordinary people use technology to turn spiritual power into energy for various objects, which is something that the cultivation world has never thought of in the past. However, among the earliest elders who founded the Nine Immortal Sect, there were some researchers who successfully studied the method of turning spiritual power into energy, solving the energy problem of mankind in one fell swoop.
Magician Schiller had seen items powered by spiritual power since he was a child, but he had never imagined that an entire city would be filled with such spiritual products. How could a group of ordinary people have the power to build such a huge city?
Now he has changed his mind. Although he still has the arrogance as a magician, when he walks on the streets of New City, he is completely impressed by the technology of ordinary people.
He even took the initiative to talk to ordinary people and asked them how to use mobile phones.
"You, tell me how to use this."
Schiller said, pointing at a boy who was looking at him.
"Are you asking me?"
When the magician called out his name, the boy's eyes lit up.
"Yes, that's you! Come tell me how this works and why it keeps ringing?"
Schiller asked again.
"You've never used a cell phone? Someone's calling you. Press the green button in the middle and answer the call! Just put it to your ear, right!"
Although Schiller's words were a bit rude, the boy who was named was now filled with the strange vanity of talking to a magician and didn't care about Schiller's attitude at all.
"who are you?"
Schiller had used the magic crystal ball before and soon understood the function of the mobile phone. However, the magic crystal ball could see the other person's appearance, but the mobile phone could not, so he asked the first question after answering the phone.
"Hello, Mr. Schiller. This is New City Jiuxian Auction House, and I am also the person in charge of the New City Jiuxian Spiritual Goods branch. Someone contacted Mr. Schiller through us and specifically asked to make a deal with you. I wonder if it is convenient for you to go to Jiuxian Spiritual Goods now?"
The voice on the other end of the phone startled Schiller. He didn't expect someone to come to his door as soon as he arrived in New City.
But after thinking about it for a while, Schiller felt that this was quite normal.
Now the whole New City is full of people who want to bid for the Space Orb. They will definitely not wait for the auction to start, but accumulate funds before the auction begins. The more funds they have, the more likely they are to bid for the Space Orb. No magician will come to New City and quietly wait for the auction to start without doing anything.
Schiller thought the same way. If there hadn't been this phone call, he would have taken the initiative to find someone to trade with.
"Okay, I'll go there now. Give me the address and I'll find a driver to take me there."
Schiller answered. He had seen that the yellow taxis were similar to the rickshaw drivers who pulled cars on the roadside a hundred years ago, both of which carried passengers.
"The address has been sent to your phone. Just show it to the taxi driver when the time comes."
The person on the other end of the phone answered.
"Wait a minute. You! Answer me, what do you mean by sending it to my cell phone?"
Schiller said the first sentence to the person on the phone, and the second sentence to the boy standing next to him. The boy immediately helped Schiller to find the text message and the address of Jiuxian Linghuo.
"Okay, I'll go over now."
Schiller replied, hung up the call, and then hailed a taxi with the help of the boy.
"You are very good. You have helped this magician a lot. This little thing is given to you as a reward."
After Schiller finished speaking, he threw a spirit stone whose internal spiritual power had been used up to the boy.
Magicians have a great demand for spirit stones, not only for cultivation, but also for running the magic tower. Generally speaking, practitioners will throw away the spirit stones after using up the spiritual power in them, but magicians often deliberately leave some spirit stones that have been depleted of spiritual power to fool ordinary people.
Most ordinary people have heard of spirit stones and know that they are very important to practitioners and are extremely expensive. Therefore, there are occasional reports that some ordinary person has obtained a spirit stone and has become rich overnight. Taking advantage of the fact that everyone wants to become rich overnight, magicians often give spirit stones that have consumed all their spiritual power to ordinary people.
They couldn't practice, so naturally they couldn't sense whether there was spiritual power in the spirit stone. Moreover, most ordinary people didn't even know what the spirit stone was used for, so naturally they didn't know that the spirit stone that consumed spiritual power was actually worthless.
Therefore, most ordinary people would be excited and grateful when they received the spiritual stones from the magician. However, once they took the spiritual stones to be appraised and sold for money, they would find that they were happy for nothing, because the magician's spiritual stones were completely useless.
The boy in front of him was the same. He was holding the spiritual stone given by Schiller with his hands shaking slightly with excitement. He kept thanking and bowing. If Schiller had not closed the door of the taxi, the boy might have even knelt down to thank Schiller.
Schiller didn't care about ordinary people at all and walked away. What he cared about was the traders who were waiting at the Nine Immortals Spirit Goods, hoping to squeeze out some value from them.
"Hello, my name is Yu Gang, and I am a professional agent for the Nine Immortals Spiritual Goods. This time I am doing business with you on behalf of a certain academician from the Three Talents Academy on the Xiuzhen Continent."
In a reception room of Jiuxian Linghuo, Schiller did not see the trader himself, but only saw an agent.
Schiller was shocked. He never expected that it was the famous member of the Sancai Academy who wanted to trade with him.
