Adventure world

Coming out of the study, Zhuo Jun hurried back to the workshop.He felt that since Princess Heidi dared to ask the second master to give her a marriage, she might do even more unimaginable things, and the most important thing was to cut the gems and run away as soon as possible.

The false transmission of the imperial decree just now seems to have some effect, but after all, there are too many rough stones, and only two-thirds of them have been cut up to now.

Zhuo Jun sat on the fence with a sad face, staring at the mechanical movements of the craftsmen in a daze.He didn't realize when Moore came behind him, he only felt a moment of weightlessness, and Moore pulled him into his arms from behind.

Zhuo Jun frantically kept himself from falling, and looked up to see Moore's reflected face.

Zhuo Jun felt that Moore was still angry, and looked at him without daring to speak.Unexpectedly, Moore smiled lightly, stretched out his hand and rubbed his forehead: "Don't frown, even if that Princess Heidi caused a big problem, it has nothing to do with us."

"Huh?" Zhuo Jun struggled to break free from Moore's arms, squatted on the railing and looked back at Moore.After seeing for a long time that he didn't see any mocking expression on Moore's face, Zhuo Juncai doubtfully said, "Are you not angry anymore?"

Moore opened his eyes and said nonsense: "I'm not angry at all, I'm just kidding you."

Zhuo Jun doesn't believe this kind of nonsense without any technical content, but he will not expose Moore desperately, but hums and says: "You scared me to death, I won't look at other people in the future, and you shouldn't either suddenly cold."

"Yeah." Moore smiled slightly.Zhuo Jun murmured in his heart, why is this smile so indulgent?Obviously he is the husband, right?

"By the way," Zhuo Jun suddenly thought of something, "It won't be over for a while, why don't we take the time to go to the Magicians Guild? Let's see who can sell the magic gems at a high price to a heartless person."

Moore grabbed his arm and nodded: "Let's go."

The Wizards Guild of Quentin Imperial City is located in a not-so-busy street in the northern part of the Imperial City.In fact, most of the branches of the Magician's Guild failed to win the geographical advantage, because compared to the other two organizations, the Magician's Guild is not so approachable.The Bounty Hunter's Guild can make people make money, and the Eternal God's Guild has a good reputation among the people, so there is only the unlucky Mage Guild that doesn't care about grandma and uncle.In fact, this world is quite realistic. An organization that cannot provide benefits to the people is not a good organization.But despite this, in the group of magicians, the guild is still very important.

Still because of the absurd order of King Oss VI, most of the magicians in Oss were transferred to foreign countries, especially Quentin.The scene where there were only a few houses is gone, and the old gate that has experienced many vicissitudes is even in danger of being crushed, and there is an endless stream of magicians coming and going.

It was only when Zhuo Jun came here that he discovered that Linton was not very unqualified as a magician, because looking around, there were many magicians who looked worse than him.It seems that the magicians on this continent are a group of good and bad guys.

The Magician Guild has its own system, probably as long as there is no historical stain on the magician, it can come here to learn all kinds of magic.Of course, if you want to learn some powerful spells, it depends on the strength of the local guild and the guidance of a good teacher.It is precisely because Dorothy belongs to the Belle family, the great magician family, that Linton is so courteous.Of course Dorothy's appearance is also one of the main reasons.

Zhuo Jun and Moore's attire did not look like magicians, so they attracted most people's attention when they entered the door.However, it may be that the coalition forces brought together the friendship of these people of different identities not long ago, and there was no conflict, and most of the gazes they cast were curious.

Zhuo Jun was rather curious and couldn't help but look around.Pieces of recessed compartments were dug out of the walls of the building, and under the barrier reinforced by magic were basic magic books of different attributes, which were provided for everyone to learn.Zhuo Jun looked at it curiously for a moment, and the dense magic characters on it immediately made him dizzy, so he had to give up the plan of dual cultivation of magic and martial arts.

Most of the guilds are magic apprentices who are infinitely close to laymen. Some look longingly at the magician dancing with flames in the air, and some watch in amazement the magician using the levitation technique to carry some heavy objects.Different people have different attitudes towards magic, perhaps this is one of the reasons why the Magicians Guild is not doing well.But overall, the atmosphere here is pretty good, and most of the aloof magicians also uphold the principle of living in peace.

After looking around in the crowd, he didn't see Linton or Dorothy. Zhuo Jun was anxious to find them to introduce the person in charge to sell gems, and said to Moore, "Why can't I find them? They can't be studying under the guise of Did you elope in the name of magic?"

Moore thought for a while: "The Belle family is a big family, so they probably wouldn't practice magic in the courtyard. Let's go into the main building and have a look."

Zhuo Jun nodded and followed Moore's footsteps.

Walking into the main building, there are significantly fewer magicians here.It's not that entry is not allowed here, but that magicians are very conceited, and most of the magic here is beyond the grasp of ordinary magicians.Yes, the way they maintain their ego is by not learning what they can't learn.

An old man with a white beard sat in the corner of the aisle, flipping through an old thick book, and didn't lift his head when he heard their footsteps, as if he was immersed in the ocean of knowledge.

Zhuo Jun looked around for a week, and there was only this one living person, so he had no choice but to walk over, and bowed softly: "Hello, respected mage, we are looking for someone."

The old magician didn't look up: "Who are you looking for?"

"We're looking for Linton or Dorothy." Zhuo Jun answered honestly.

"Linton?" The old magician raised his head and looked at Zhuo Jun with cloudy eyes.Zhuo Jun was so terrified when he saw him, he wondered if Linton, a mentally handicapped man, had caused some trouble here?

"What's your name?" asked the old magician.

Zhuo Jun hesitated for a moment, ready to run away: "My name is Zhuo Jun."

The old magician nodded: "Zhuo Jun... go up, Linton and Dorothy are practicing magic in the first room on the second floor."

Zhuo Jun nodded, and couldn't help asking: "Why did you ask my name, can't others find him?"

The old magician said calmly: "Dorothy has many suitors. Linton has dueled others more than a dozen times since he came here, and he lost more than he won. So he asked me, if anyone comes to him again, except Zhuo Jun, don't let anyone come up."

Zhuo Jun pouted, should he be happy that Linton hasn't forgotten him as the boss?

Zhuo Jun and Moore walked up the old-fashioned wooden stairs, and Zhuo Jun leaned into his ear and said, "Linton lost more in a duel than he won? He actually won, which shows how low the threshold for magicians is."

Moore smiled: "His staff is not bad." The implication is that Linton's victory depends entirely on his equipment.

Zhuo Jun covered his mouth to prevent himself from laughing, and dragged Moore to the room that the old magician mentioned.Before they entered, the two heard Linton's peculiarly contrived tone.

"My God, Dorothy, you are the most gifted magician I have ever seen..."

"Don't talk about Linton like that, if you didn't consume mana to create this staff, you must have done better than me."

Zhuo Jun and Moore looked at each other, Linton is too shameless, isn't he?If you are rubbish at your own level, you just make excuses because you are tired of building weapons?That thing was obviously snatched from the mountain pirate...

They didn't even knock on the door, they just pushed the door and walked in. Anyway, listening to their conversation is not doing something inappropriate for children, and they are not afraid of the eye of a needle.

Linton turned around after hearing the news, and saw Zhuo Jun who was smiling: "Boss? You haven't left yet?"

Zhuo Jun became unhappy: "Why are you talking, you expect me to get out of here quickly, don't you?"

Linton smiled flatteringly: "How could it be, my boss, I think you should use your precious time to make money instead of visiting me. Although I am very happy to see you again."

"I don't see a happy look on your face." Zhuo Jun said, smiling and nodding to Dorothy.What a girl, but her brain is not good enough to be tricked by Linton.

Dorothy smiled softly: "You guys are chatting, I'll go get some refreshments."

Zhuo Jun happened to be thirsty, so he was not polite to her.The moment Dorothy went out, Zhuo Jun said to Linton with a playful smile: "You two are flirting here every day, when will you be able to practice your magic well?"

Linton stretched his waist: "It's not just about flirting. Dorothy's father will come to give us advice every night. I have benefited a lot from listening to it once. Boss, tell me, what are you doing here? I don't believe you Will make a special trip to see me."

Zhuo Jun smiled triumphantly: "Do you know Linton, not long after you left, Boss, I discovered the gem mine, and there is a magic gem in it. I want you to introduce the person in charge here, I think Sell ​​him."

Linton looked at Zhuo Jun in surprise: "The gemstone mine? Boss, don't you drink too much?"

Zhuo Jun gave him a contemptuous look, and took out the light blue magic gemstone from the space ring.Although Linton's magic is not very good, but his eyes are very vicious, and he can tell at a glance that Zhuo Jun is not lying to him.

"Wow..." Linton took it excitedly, "It's really a magic gem! Boss, you've made a fortune! How much is such a large piece worth..."

Zhuo Jun took the gem back to avoid Linton's saliva dripping on it: "Anyway, you can't afford it, so hurry up and call the boss here, I have to leave quickly."

Linton flattened his mouth: "The person in charge here is sitting downstairs. You should have seen it when you came up. I don't know if he has money. If he can't sell it, give it to me."

"Hehe." Zhuo Jun looked at the foolish Linton.

do you want to go now?Zhuo Jun cast doubtful eyes on Moore, Moore shook his head: "Let's go after drinking tea, you drank a lot at noon."

Moore was talking about the unbearable lunch at the Prince's Mansion at noon, Zhuo Jun nodded with a dry smile.Both of them didn't notice that they could read each other's meaning with just one look.

Linton looked puzzled, when did the relationship between the two of them change so quickly?Linton smiled and said, "Boss, you came to see me empty-handed. It makes me so sad. But you are unkind, but I can't be unrighteous. I happen to have a gossip here, and you should be very interested."

Zhuo Jun didn't have much hope for his words: "What news?"

Linton smiled mischievously: "Yesterday, a wave of magicians came from afar. They came from the distant Kingdom of Louis. I heard from them that the army of the undead from the Os Empire is heading north, and their king frightened them." Out of courage, I have already planned to pledge my allegiance to the Os Empire."

Zhuo Jun thought about it. The Kingdom of Louis is a small country bordering on the north of the Os Empire. If Os. VI intends to expand, it will definitely be the first victim. Linton's news does not seem to be fake.But Zhuo Jun still didn't understand what good news this was, and looked at Linton suspiciously.

Linton smiled and continued: "Listen to me. The king of the Kingdom of Louis has not grown any more than the one of the Kingdom of Rhodes, and he is using the power of the whole country to search for treasures, so these magicians escaped from the country. And King Louis The reason why we did this is because next month is the birthday of Oss VI, and King Louis intends to offer a generous congratulatory gift at that time, so that the Oss Empire will not destroy them."

Zhuo Jun smiled slightly, knowing it clearly: "So... next month, wait on the border in the north of Oss, and there will be fat sheep passing by?"

Linton didn't speak, but let out an evil laugh in agreement with Zhuo Jun's words.

Zhuo Jun thought for a while and decided, if you don't grab it, you're a bastard!How can the fat sheep in hand be let go, and this is still a treasure dedicated to King Oss VI, he will rob everything he says.What is this called, yes, for the heavens!

Seeing Zhuo Jun gearing up, Moore couldn't help laughing.Zhuo Jun is really a simple person, as long as he can make money, he can be happy.At this time, Bishop Moore was seriously considering Zhuo Jun's previous suggestion, should he collect money from believers?

After a while, Dorothy came in with some cups of tea and some pastries.After simply drinking a cup of tea, Zhuo Jun and Moore got up and said goodbye, and Zhuo Jun gave Linton a wretched look for extra effort.Moore patted him on the head with a smile, and left with him.

In the aisle on the first floor, the unattractive old magician was still sitting there reading a book.Maybe it's a psychological effect, the more Zhuo Jun looks at him now, the more he looks like a retired veteran cadre, he looks like a rich man.

After being stared at like a fat sheep for a long time, the old magician finally couldn't help raising his head: "Is there anything else you want?"

"Yes, yes!" Zhuo Jun took out the magic gem, "Your Excellency, do you need this?"

The old magician's turbid eyes suddenly brightened, and he stood up from the chair, staring at the gemstone in Zhuo Jun's hand: "This... I have never seen such a big magic gemstone, you want to give it to me me?"

Zhuo Jun almost flicked his tongue, are people's faces so big now?Zhuo Jun pulled out a smile: "How could it be? Being courteous for nothing is either rape or stealing. I sold it to you."

The old magician nodded in understanding and extended a slap.

Zhuo Jun was overjoyed: "5000 million gold coins? Deal!"

"What are you talking about?" The old magician looked at Zhuo Jun like a fool, "I'm talking about 500 million gold coins."

Zhuo Jun is not happy anymore, Moore has already said that the area of ​​the Aussie Empire is 800 million smaller than this one, this old man has a dark heart!Zhuo Jun smiled and shook his head: "Then I won't sell it, see you later."

"Little brother, wait!" The old magician stopped Zhuo Jun, "Don't rush away, you can raise the price if it's not suitable, how about 1000 million?"

This is doubled?It seems that this thing is quite valuable.Zhuo Jun rolled his eyes: "2000 million gold coins are the same price, whether you want it or not."

The old magician hesitated, and it was obvious that he really wanted it, but Zhuo Jun's price was indeed a bit high.After grinding for a long time, the old magician gritted his teeth: "I only have 500 million gold coins, but how about I give you a very precious magic scroll?"

Zhuo Jun asked: "What scroll is it worth?"

The old magician smiled slightly: "Worth the money? The value of the scroll cannot be measured by money. If it weren't for my urgent need for magic gems, it would be absolutely impossible to exchange them with you."

How could a person like Zhuo Jun believe such words, he said with a smile: "Then how dare I take it, you should give the gold coins, and keep the scroll for yourself."

The old magician had never seen such a monkey spirit in his life, and he choked: "You! Well, well, it's actually a scroll that I've learned, it's useless to keep it... Don't look at me like that, I If you learn it, others won’t! You can sell it for more than 500 million gold coins!”

Zhuo Jun thought for a moment, 500 million has actually met his expectations, and it seems good to get one more scroll, so he said with a relaxed tone, "What scroll is it?"

The old magician smiled mysteriously: "It's a forbidden spell of ice magic. Although it's only the lower half, once it's mastered, it's invincible. I don't know how many magicians are flocking to it."

Well, it's still half a scroll, Zhuo Jun nodded impatiently: "All right, all right, take the money."

The old magician happily led them both to the warehouse, seeing the happy expression of the old man, Zhuo Jun always felt that he was at a disadvantage.But there is no way, who made me rush to sell it, and if it hadn't been sold in Quentin, the Magicians Guild in other small places might not have so much money.

The old magician walked to a sealed room and stretched out his palm. The magic pattern on his palm opened the seal of the door.The door opened slowly with a squeak, and the old magician pointed inside and said, "It's right here. I've saved my entire life, 500 million gold coins, not too much and not too little."

Just as Moore wanted to go in, Zhuo Jun stopped him and said to the old magician, "Go in and move out for us."

Moore didn't know why, Zhuo Jun looked at the old magician pretending to be clever.Hehe, he has read martial arts novels, what if he enters some institution?It is necessary to be defensive... The old magician didn't understand what Zhuo Jun meant, but he didn't think too much about it. He went in and pulled out two big boxes.

When he opened it, the box full of gems almost blinded Zhuo Jun's eyes.

"Pay with one hand and deliver with one hand!" Zhuo Jun threw the magic gem to the old magician, and the old magician took it carefully, admiring it like a treasure.

When the old magician turned around with a smile, he found that the two boxes were empty.The half-drawn and disheveled scroll was being held by Moore for scrutiny.

"...Where are the gemstones?" The old magician was stunned, he didn't move, he couldn't tell now!

Fortunately, Zhuo Jun didn't use such low-end means to blackmail him, he patted the ring contentedly: "You don't have to worry about it, I'll take the money." After speaking, he took Moore's arm and left gracefully.

The old magician who stayed where he was, scratched his pale hair in distress, and walked around the empty box like a donkey pulling a mill.He even wanted to stop Zhuo Jun and exchange the magic gem for an answer: How on earth did you make [-] gems disappear at the same time?I can't figure it out, if this curiosity is not satisfied, he can't expect to fall asleep in the future...

"Moore, can you understand?" Zhuo Jun asked curiously when he saw that Moore had been reading the scroll.

Moore shook his head: "I can only understand the name, but I don't know anything about the content. After all, I haven't studied magic seriously."

Zhuo Jun asked again: "What's that name?"

Moore said with a smile: "The name is very domineering. It is called Iceberg Breaking. It is indeed a forbidden curse of the ice system."

Zhuo Jun nodded, it's good that he wasn't cheated, let's keep it for now, maybe someday he can sell it to someone...

When Zhuo Jun and Moore returned to the palace, the craftsmen had just finished cutting the last rough stone, and nearly two thousand shining gems were shining brightly in the box.Zhuo Jun caressed the gemstone in uncontrollable joy, he had already carried 4000 million in his chest, and the task of [-] million gold coins was almost half completed!

Zhuo Jun carefully let Bao Locke walk around the craftsmen, and was very satisfied when he found that no one was secretly carrying it.After dismissing the craftsmen, Zhuo Jun quickly opened the interspatial ring, packed his bags, and left!

Escaping from Princess Heidi was one thing, but on the other hand, he had to seize the time to ambush him. After all, Quentin City was thousands of miles away from the northern border of the Os Empire.
