Ryan stood in the crowd that still hadn't dispersed, listening to people talking. After a while, he learned some useful information, but it was far from enough.
People gradually dispersed, but Ryan did not leave. He grabbed a magic apprentice who was the loudest in the discussion and asked: "Friend, can I ask you some questions?"
"Dear Magician, how can I help you?" Seeing that Ruian was dressed as a level 1 magician, although Ruian's language was a bit abrupt, the young magic apprentice did not dare to neglect at all, and his attitude was very respectful.
"Do you know if the magic teleportation array of the West Safin City Magic Association can be used by individuals?" Ryan asked directly to the point of the question without being polite.
Unexpectedly, the magic apprentice did not answer immediately, but looked at Ruian with very surprised eyes, and then asked curiously: "Your Excellency, are you coming from another country?"
Suddenly Ruian was also a little surprised. He didn't expect that a random question of his would reveal that he was not from the Odoli Empire. Obviously, many people should know this question. Only a magician like Ruian who had just arrived in the Odoli Empire would ask.
This question came up. However, Ryan was not embarrassed. He said frankly: "Yes, I just reassessed the magicians of the Odoli Empire today."
The young magic apprentice had a look on his face that he had known this all along, and then he introduced the magic teleportation array to Ryan non-stop. After a while, Ryan finally had a general understanding of the magic teleportation array.
It turns out that the magic system of the Odoli Empire is very developed. They have established magic teleportation arrays in magic associations in many big cities. The purpose is to facilitate the teleportation of people in emergencies.
However, because the magic teleportation array is too complex, the structure is too mysterious, and the magic materials used in its construction are too precious, except for the Odoli Empire, which has extremely strong magical power, there are not many magic teleportation arrays disclosed by other countries. Of course,
There are no known magic teleportation arrays that have not been made public. It is certain that they are not many in number. This has also led to the fact that Ruian has only heard the name of the magic teleportation array since he has been practicing magic for so long and has never seen it at all.
, I haven’t even heard anyone discuss it.
It is very difficult to build a magic teleportation array. If teleportation is very convenient, then it stands to reason that the utilization rate should be high and bring convenience to countless people. But the reality is cruel. Not only is the magic teleportation array very difficult to build, but every time it is used,
The cost is extremely high. Every time the magic teleportation array is turned on, different levels of magic crystal cores are required depending on the distance and the number of people being teleported. For example, if the third prince wanted to teleport three people back to the distant imperial capital, he had to use several 6
Super magic crystal core.
Level 6 magic crystal cores are very expensive, each one is worth thousands of gold coins. Therefore, it is difficult for ordinary people to own level 6 magic crystal cores. Even those who have the ability to own level 6 magic crystal cores are generally not willing to just take out a few.
Use it as an energy source for magic transmission. Even senior magicians who have more Warcraft materials and more wealth are reluctant to part with it. Only the royal family with deep pockets and countless resources can not use level 6 magic crystal cores as
It's the same thing, just use it as an energy source for magical transmission.
Therefore, the Magic Teleportation Array of the Magic Association is usually in an idle state. It will only be opened for use when it is urgently needed or when someone provides a level 6 magic crystal core for use. Of course, this also depends on
Who is it, such as Ryan? Even if he is willing to use the few level 6 Warcraft crystal cores he has, the Magic Association may not be willing to let an unknown person like Ryan use them.
After learning about the magic teleportation array, Ruian smiled bitterly and ignored it. Because the cost of using the magic teleportation array was too high, Ruian was not willing to use it at all.
At this time, all the people gathered at the door dispersed, and Ryan also stepped out of the door of the Magic Association and left.
Ruian stepped out of the door and found that there were more people outside than before, but Ruian didn't take it seriously. The noise caused by the third prince just now also attracted people outside to gather and watch.
However, before Ruian took two steps, he was blocked by someone.
"Who dares to block my way? It can't be robbery?" Ruian was a little annoyed, cursed in his heart, and carefully looked at the person blocking the road in front of him.
This is a middle-aged man in his thirties, dressed as a businessman. He is not tall, fat, and has a big belly. He has a very standard businessman image. The middle-aged businessman has two long and thin lips.
The beard has a very shrewd look, which makes people alert and guard against being deceived.
Ruian did not speak, but turned slightly sideways, staring at the other person with extremely cold eyes. At this moment, Ruian believed that his eyes were full of murderous intent, and he would definitely be able to intimidate the middle-aged businessman who was blocking the way.
"Dear Magician, Ulafa would like to say hello to you. Haha..." The middle-aged businessman named Ulaffa showed a charming smile commonly used by businessmen, looking very flattering.
"What's the matter with you?" In contrast, Ruian seemed very cold and had a very bad attitude.
"Dear Magician, I have a high-paying employment task. I wonder if you are interested in taking it?" Seeing Ruian's expression that he might turn his face at any time, Ulafa did not dare to neglect, and immediately stated his purpose to attract
Ryan's curiosity.
Sure enough, when Ruian heard about the high-paying employment mission, he immediately became interested. Although he had sold a lot of Warcraft materials and received a large sum of gold coins before, he later spent half of his wealth on the purchase of magic secrets and other items.
This made Ruian heartbroken, and he had already begun to think about how to make money. So now that he heard about the opportunity to make money, Ruian was naturally very interested, but he still remained very vigilant in the face of this sudden appearance of a businessman.
"Oh, let's hear it." Ruian's tone did not reveal any urgency, as if he was just listening.
"Dear Magician, do you have a magic storage bag?" Surprisingly, Ulafa did not ask immediately, but asked instead.
"Yes." Ruian hesitated for only a moment before giving an affirmative answer. In a big city like West Safin City, Ruian was not worried that the other party would have bad intentions. Moreover, the Odoli Empire was different from other countries and had more resources.
There are many, and magicians also have a lot of money. Therefore, although it is not possible for every magician to have one of these magic props, it is an indisputable fact that most people have them.
"Dear Magician, I would like to hire you to take something to Fejia City." Ulafa's attitude was still respectful, making it impossible to find fault.
"What?"
Ullafa took out a wooden box from the bag behind him, stretched it out in front of Ryan, and said, "This is the wooden box that can be placed in your magic storage bag."
Ruian didn't reach out to take it, but just looked at it carefully. The wooden box was a square wooden box two feet long and one foot wide. The style was very ordinary. Apart from the fact that it could be seen that it had some age, there was nothing special about it. The only thing was that it had some age.
The difference is that the wooden box is tightly closed and locked with an iron lock. However, this lock looks very ordinary and seems to be easily pried open. It is also very thin. If you use a sword to cut it, it will
Ruian was confident that he could cut through the iron lock with one sword stroke.
"What's inside?" Ryan asked casually. In his opinion, Ulaffa would definitely answer.
Unexpectedly, Ulafah immediately refused and said, "I'm sorry, the contents here are confidential and I can't tell you."
Ryan frowned suddenly, and at this moment, he became deeply suspicious.
Seeing that Ryan seemed about to refuse, Ulafa immediately said: "Dear Magician, if you accept this employment mission, you will be rewarded with a thousand gold coins."
In an instant, Ruian frowned and became shocked. A thousand gold coins was a lot of money!
Such a large amount of money is enough to hire a powerful mercenary team, but why do you want to find a magician with level 1 magician strength? Is it just because the magician has a magic storage bag? This makes no sense, and even more so
It's puzzling.
When Ruian thought about it, this employment mission was very mysterious, even very strange. No matter how he thought about it, it was impossible for this businessman named Ulafa to hand over the task of a large sum of gold coins to someone who had no idea of the details and strength without any purpose.
A magician who doesn’t seem to be strong? But what is his purpose?
Ruian really wanted to earn these one thousand gold coins, but after thinking about it for a long time, he finally decided to be on the safe side and refused this employment task.
"I'm sorry, I have to go to the imperial capital and don't have time to go to Feijia City, so I can't accept this employment task." Faced with the consistent respect from the other party, Ruian's expression softened and he became polite.
"Dear Magician, Fejia City is near the Imperial Capital. When you go to the Imperial Capital, you must pass through Fejia City. Therefore, if you accept this employment task, you will only complete it on the way and it will not hinder you for any time.
." Ulafah persuaded with a smile.
Ruian was stunned. He had purchased the map before, but had not had time to look at it carefully. He did not know that Fejia City was near the imperial capital, so Ruian's excuse was not valid.
Ruian was slightly embarrassed. He wanted to reject the other party. He couldn't say that I was afraid that you might have some tricks to harm others, so I didn't dare to accept your employment task. However, if he refused directly without saying the reason, Ruian would have some reluctance in his heart. Change it.
In a word, Ruian is looking for an excuse to reject the other party. In fact, he is looking for an excuse to convince himself to avoid being unwilling.
After a while, Ruian refused again and said: "I'm sorry, the commission for this task is too small. It's only one thousand gold coins, which is not enough."
This is also an excuse that Ruian can convince himself of. According to Ruian's idea, the other party will definitely leave after hearing it.
