In the Principality of Yali, several hundred miles away from the border of the uninhabited land of the Pamiji Plateau, there is a border city.
The local name is 'Ephesus Wei', but outsiders like to call it the Shepherd City. This is because it produces ice sheet blue sheep that are popular in the food industry of the entire Principality of Ari. Almost every family of the herders living here has
Have your own sheep farm.
Precisely because of the existence of a large number of sheep farms, Shepherd City is not surrounded by tall walls like other cities.
Shepherd City is a semi-open city, with no city gates and only garrison guards on certain roads, somewhat like Waterglass in the fairy tale world.
However, although Muyang City is a semi-open city, it does not mean that the city is unsafe. Because it is surrounded by mountains on both sides, and they are also snow-capped mountains. To the west, it is adjacent to the snow melting river from the Pamiji Plateau's permafrost river.
There is only one side of the Xuenao River that can be entered into the city from a flat road.
And there happen to be several steam train tracks on this side. Not only the transportation company has to guard the tracks, but also the soldiers of Shepherd City strictly control them for safety reasons. So in general, it is safe here.
Guaranteed.
Near a square in the center of Shepherd City, three figures appeared out of thin air.
There was a business district around, with people coming and going, but after these three figures appeared, no one paid attention to them, as if they didn't exist.
It wasn't until these three people made a move that a few people nearby noticed them. However, there were too many people here. Even if they saw them suddenly appearing, some people just thought they were dazzled and didn't think much about it.
Moreover, two of these three people were dressed as nobles in terms of appearance or aura. Most people would not dare to look directly at them, let alone take a deep look at them.
The three of them walked down Square Road and soon came to a small hotel.
However, they did not enter the hotel, but walked to the edge of the hotel and walked into an alley sandwiched between two tall buildings.
The alley was very dark, and the floor was wet and covered with moss because of the constant lack of light.
"Teacher, where are we going now?" The one who spoke was a handsome young man with blond hair and blue eyes. His forehead hair was drooped, covering his right eye.
The young man was none other than Angel, who had just returned from the abyss. As for the person he was questioning, he was naturally the famous God of War in the Southern Region - the 'Master of Illusion' Sanders.
"I'm going to meet an old friend of mine and inquire about the current situation on the Pamiji Plateau." Sanders paused and slowly turned his eyes behind Angel.
Popota, who was covered by a cloak, trembled all over and lowered his head without saying a word.
Sanders' eyes were dark, and he saw a gray halo flashing on the earrings, and Popota's figure disappeared.
"Let him go to the Gravity Garden first." After Sanders finished speaking, he said to Angel: "You come with me."
Along the long alley, they walked all the way to the end.
There was a gas lamp hanging on the wall. The dim yellow light was not very bright, but it illuminated the cursive characters next to a door at the end very clearly.
"If you are willing to burn the glory of life in exchange for a rose, I think you must be crazy."
Angel softly read out the row of dragon and phoenix dancing characters, and frowned slightly. He did not understand the meaning of this sentence.
Moreover, he didn't understand why such a passage was engraved in front of this door.
Sanders said: "This sentence comes from "The Flower Seller Who Dances with Sin," a meaningless novel. But in this book, there is a demon named Zslade, who transforms the protagonist from a poor man into a
He married a wealthy businessman and eventually became a knight and a general, and the protagonist sacrificed his life, soul and emotions accordingly. In the end, the protagonist got together with a flower girl. He thought he had broken through the limitations of the devil and gained love. But in the end, the protagonist got together with a flower girl.
When they got married, Zslade said that there would be a test. If the protagonist could pass it, not only would he have love, but his lost soul and lifespan would also be restored."
"The protagonist agreed, so the devil turned the protagonist into a beggar who had gone through vicissitudes of life. He lost his handsome appearance and his unparalleled wealth. He wanted to test the flower girl's choice. If the flower girl chooses to continue to marry him, the devil's
The test will fail."
"The protagonist thought that the flower girl was still the kind and beautiful girl when they first met, but he didn't know that during their relationship, the flower girl had been dazzled by the wealth and wealth. How could she be willing to change after tasting the life of a wealthy lady?
The protagonist becomes old and poor. So the flower girl left the moment before entering the marriage hall."
After listening to the story told by Sanders, Angel twitched the corner of his mouth: "It does sound very meaningless. The devil will not be so kind."
"However, this vulgar story is very famous in the Principality of Yali. The newspaper that serialized this novel has become the largest newspaper in the Principality of Yali."
Angel nodded noncommittally: "Depicting the betrayal of women and describing the loyalty of the protagonist, this type of novel is loved by traditional aristocrats. Because the stories are often contrary to the facts."
Sanders didn't comment, just smiled, stepped forward and opened the door at the end.
"Let's go in and see my old friend, that kind devil."
Angel was not surprised at all. When Sanders told this story, he had basically guessed who the owner of this room was.
When I walked into the house, I discovered that it was an antique shop.
The glass showcases inlaid with gold edges are filled with antiques from various countries and periods. Among them, Angel even discovered a spherical navigation instrument from the Silver Age of Ferland.
A dazzling array of rare treasures.
Moreover, the light here is very abundant, and the light collides with the gold and silver utensils, so even an ordinary item will make people feel dazzled.
However, for Master Sanders and his disciples, the antiques here are ordinary objects and cannot attract their much attention.
At this time, something like a metal box suddenly spiraled down from the place they were facing. In terms of size, Angel first thought of a coffin, but when the coffin door was opened, Angel understood
, this is probably a...mechanical elevator?
There was an old man in a robe in the elevator. His back was turned to Angel and Sanders. While talking, he slowly turned around. He looked very stylish.
"Those who can walk in must have something on their mind. Distinguished guest, are you planning to trade your lifespan or your spirit..." However, Qi Faner was halfway there when he suddenly stopped. Because he turned his head,
Right in Sanders' face.
"Uh...ah hahaha, it turns out to be Your Excellency Huanmo, just pretend that I didn't say anything just now." The old man smiled awkwardly, and his previous attitude suddenly fell to the bottom.
He came to the side a little embarrassed and pressed a few buttons.
I only heard the sound of gears turning in my ears, and after a while, the tables and chairs spun up from the ground out of thin air.
Angel's eyes flashed with admiration. Although it was just a simple take-off and landing device, it was very delicately made.
After everyone sat down, the old man looked at Angel, looked at him for a long time, and then said: "Your Excellency Huan Mo, this is your new apprentice? I remember that it should be the 'Music Box Warlock' Angel who is widely rumored in the wizarding world.
?”
Angel's mouth froze and he said numbly: "I am indeed Angel, but I don't recognize him as the music box warlock."
The old man said with a smile: "Your nickname hasn't been decided yet. It's all what we call it in private. Sky Machinery City can't find your record in the Sky Tower. Otherwise, you can directly use your nickname in the Sky Tower."
The name recorded in the Sky Tower."
Angel said without hesitation: "That's even worse!"
Angel's reaction was a little excited, which made the old man's eyes flash with confusion. He turned back to look at Sanders, only to see a rare smile flashing in his eyes.
The old man seemed to understand something. It is estimated that Angel's name in the Sky Tower is a bit indescribable, which is normal... When he was in the Savage Cave, the registered name was "Holy King of Truth". He really wants to bear this name.
It would be weird if you don't get laughed at by others.
But he also understands this mentality. As a teenager, isn't it normal to always feel that the world revolves around him?
Thinking of this, he suggested to Angel: "If you want to clear your name, you might as well pass the news to some influential magazines, or go directly to the Sky Tower to register a new name."
Angel nodded. Although the name was not a big deal, every time he met someone in the future, he would call himself a music box warlock. That would be boring. It would make him look like he could only refine music boxes.
Sanders finally spoke at this time and said to Angel: "He is an old friend of mine. You may have guessed his name. He is Zislade in "The Flower Seller Who Dances with Sin".
However, he is not a demon, he also comes from the Savage Cave, but he has been away for almost two hundred years, right?"
"To be precise, it's one hundred and ninety-six years." Zislade sighed and said: "At the beginning, there was only one term difference between me and Lord Huan Mo. Now you are already famous in the Southern Territory, and I am still stuck.
A first-level wizard cannot make any progress. Alas, I don’t know if I will be able to embark on the path of true knowledge in my lifetime.”
"Oh, let's not talk about these sad things." Zislade knocked on the metal table, and a mechanical doll floated over, holding a dinner plate in his hand, but the dinner plate was not filled with food, but several
Small bag of light green powder.
"Come and try some new products that I just picked up from the wizard market a few days ago."
Zislade placed the small bag in front of Angel and Sanders, but neither of them opened the bag. Only Zislade opened the bag, scooped a spoonful of light green powder and put it into the water glass.
Drink in one sip.
After finishing the drink, Zislade realized that neither Angel nor Sanders had used anything. He sighed: "Oh, you have exactly the same character as before, and you don't know how to enjoy it at all."
"Relying on mana algae powder to release sulomones is not a real enjoyment. If you are still addicted to this and want to embark on the road to true knowledge, it is indeed hopeless." Sanders pointed out the benefits of mana algae powder unceremoniously.
Damn, this thing is addictive. Although it is not harmful to wizards, it is a waste of time, energy, and even more money.
Zislade paused, sighed, and handed the remaining mana algae powder to the mechanical doll.
"You didn't come here specifically to teach me a lesson, right? I haven't asked you yet, why did you come to me?"
