Chapter 105 Small Trade Fair
After all, Thain went to live in the city lord's mansion in Peterte City for three days.
There is no way, the Baron of Peter City is too enthusiastic.
In the evening of that day, this guy with an astonishing tonnage and exuding jewels all over his body.
He led the honor guard to the hotel where Thain lived, and shamelessly insisted on dragging Thain to attend the dinner at his city lord's mansion.
Baron Peter's body size is three times that of his deputy captain Kent.
But this baron is indeed an ordinary person, and his deputy captain of the bodyguard is an intermediate knight attendant.
The deputy captain of the guard was not the strongest person in Peter City. According to the Baron himself, the strongest person was his captain of the guard, Williams. However, half a month ago, he led a group of cavalry to go out to exterminate thieves.
The captain of the guard, Williams, has the strength of a senior knight's attendant, and he is also the strongest man in Peter City.
It seems that on the surface of the Underdark, in a city with a population of more than 100,000 like Peter City, the senior knight attendants are already at the peak of their combat power.
The city lord, Baron Petert, was very enthusiastic, including the opponent's size and appearance, which also reminded Thain of his friend Baos.
After three days of eating and drinking in the city lord's mansion, before leaving, Thane gave the city lord a nutritional potion in return.
"With such a small potion, you can drink it without eating for two or three days?" The baron looked at the potion in his hand in shock.
"Hmm... Under normal circumstances, it can last for three days. But with your size and appetite, City Lord, it shouldn't be a problem for you to last for one day." Thain nodded.
Thain's answer made the look of disbelief on the Baron's face even stronger.
Even though he is a noble, he actually doesn't understand much about magic.
Even Dou Qi, because of his body shape and hobbies, was not involved at all. He inherited this huge city purely because of his status as an only son.
Including the intermediate magic apprentice, the gray-robed old man Frank, was also shocked when he saw the potion that Thain took out from his arms.
"Lord Thain, are you still a pharmacist?" Frank couldn't help but ask.
This was also the first time that he called Thain "sir", which was difficult because he was so old.
Thain shook his head and replied: "I am not a pharmacist. This is just a simple potion that I learned from my senior sister. Later, it was improved with the help of a pharmacist apprentice friend."
Thain's words revealed a lot of information, and Frank, the old man in gray robe, couldn't help but become more curious and fearful about Thain's origins and details.
The small trade fair that took place outside the city of Peter was indeed held in advance as Frank said.
The city lord, Baron Petert, even sent a squadron of more than 20 people to escort Thain and the others in the carriage.
This small trade fair between magic apprentices is located in a small town at the junction of the power of Peter City and the two surrounding cities.
The reason why it is not held in the city is because these human cities in the central region of the Underdark do not all have friendly relations.
There were even times when wars and skirmishes broke out between the two cities.
Although the relationship between cities does not affect the personal communication of these magic apprentices, sometimes things that should be avoided must still be avoided.
The town has a small population, and it was early in the morning when Thain and the others arrived.
From outside the town, the whole town is gray and shrouded in fog.
A relatively spacious open-air square is the venue for this trade fair.
There were not many apprentices here, and at a glance, Thain saw that including him and Frank, there were only seven of them.
This shows that there are indeed not many magic apprentices around Peter City. Of course, it is also possible that Frank did not invite those apprentices with too low strength.
Those who can participate in this small trade fair are basically intermediate apprentices. There is even one with a gray hood who exudes the same aura of a senior apprentice as Thain.
"Nightcrow and Suma are not coming. Yoru will be here in a while. Should we start first?" The only senior apprentice present besides Thane asked.
Although he was asking other apprentices around him, Thain noticed that most of the man's eyes were on him.
Magic apprentices sometimes do not show others by their real names. For example, the "Night Crow" just now was obviously a nickname.
Thain did not intend to reveal his real name. He was wearing the discarded pale mask on his face at this time.
(ps: Moses repaired high-level magic props such as the earth element shield ring for Thain, but did not repair this low-level prop for Thain.)
Although he was covered by a mask, Thane knew his true identity, and it was estimated that Frank, the old man in gray robe, had already leaked it.
But Thain wasn't afraid either. The senior apprentice wearing a gray hood didn't seem to be very good at fighting, and Thain didn't feel much threat from him.
As for the other intermediate apprentices around him... If Thain hadn't deliberately restrained his temperament when he appeared here, he would have felt like a lion that had broken into some pure white zoo.
The kind of living environment in the underground world
, but much worse than the surface.
These middle- and high-level apprentices in front of them may have experienced some battles, or they may have fought against Warcraft.
But compared to Thain, in terms of temperament and aura, they are not on the same level.
Even without the help of Owl Qi, Thane felt that with the help of magic props such as acid canes, he could take them by surprise and wipe out these ignorant apprentices in front of him.
"Haha, let's start as soon as possible. I haven't seen a new face in several years. Is this little brother new to the area?" A female intermediate apprentice said with a smile.
This female apprentice also wore a mask like Sean, but her mask only covered the upper half of her face, exposing a bright red lip to Sean's sight.
This female apprentice must be a dozen or twenty years older than Sean. She actually called him "little brother", which is nothing more than Sean's senior apprentice strength and mysterious background that made her admire and fear him.
The reply of the female intermediate apprentice made several people around nod.
Including Frank beside Sean, he also said: "Let's start as soon as possible. Whether Yoru can arrive in time depends on his own luck."
Before coming, Frank roughly told Sean about the process and specific situation of this small trade fair.
There is no decent magician organization around Peter City. Frank has never heard of the existence of formal magicians.
The scarcity of resources and the lack of channels for acquiring knowledge have led the magic apprentices in this area to frequently hold trade fairs where everyone gets what they need.
In the trade fair, barter is the most common, and gold coins are less common.
The use of energy crystals or magic cores for trading has not appeared for many years.
The main reason is that it is not easy for everyone to practice. If there are energy crystals or magic cores, they will use them for themselves, and how can they trade them as currency?
Sean is also a novice. He just nodded to Frank's introduction without making any comments.
And he did not intend to sell or buy anything at the beginning, but planned to see other people's trading conditions first.
Sure enough, at the beginning, the things taken out by an intermediate apprentice attracted Sean's attention.
He took out a red vermilion fruit, which Sean did not recognize, but roughly guessed that it should be some kind of low-level magic material.
The ecological environment and resource output on the surface are indeed very different from those underground.
For a long time in the future, Sean needs to study hard and enrich his accumulation and cognition.
