Chapter 0268 Leaving
Inside the light gate is indeed a small library. ⒉
The reason why it is called small is that it is only about 20 to 30 square meters in size. Along the wall, there are a row of wooden shelves, on which some books are sparsely placed. However, a faint fluorescent light can be vaguely seen on each book, as if it is protected by some kind of witchcraft.
And there are even fewer wizards here. Only two wizards stand beside the wooden shelves, flipping through the books as if no one is around.
"Are you a new wizard? In order to avoid trouble, you'd better wear your organization badge on your chest!" The old wizard sitting at a wooden table at the entrance of the light gate put down the book in his hand and reminded with a frown.
It seems that even in the public area, there is a review of wandering wizards!
It can be imagined that evil elements like the two-faced wizard who are wanted by the Sanditalin Wizard Association are also prohibited from entering the general public area.
Grimm took out the half-moon silver badge representing the Salupo family from the storage belt and pinned it on his chest. The old wizard in charge of this place was slightly surprised when he saw it, and slowly said: "From the Salupo family? You look unfamiliar! Are you the fire demon that just appeared recently?"
Hearing the old wizard's words, the two wizards who were reading by themselves also raised their heads and looked at Grimm carefully.
"What's the problem?" Grimm asked doubtfully.
"Of course there is no problem! But..." The old wizard hesitated for a moment: "I heard that your Salupo family and the Black Hand Association are in a big fight, and several wizards of the Black Hand Association often move around in Mota City, so you'd better be careful when you go in and out!"
It can be heard that the old wizard is also kind, Grimm smiled and nodded to him, and then walked to the nearest bookshelf.
He picked up a hard-cover parchment book with a blue cover...
"Gulliver's Travels".
It seems to be a journey recorded by a formal wizard. Although it does not involve any advanced witchcraft knowledge and theory, some special monsters and plants described and recorded in the book still have certain reference value.
The price of this book is 10 magic crystals.
Grimm put it aside.
Such books are not valuable, but it is also good to enrich the chip database!
He picked up another piece of ancient parchment, which seemed to be a recipe for refining some witch medicine, which was highly toxic. However, the refining process, material ratio, and precautions were all protected by a faint fluorescence.
Price 400 magic crystals!
Grimm hesitated for a moment and put it back.
He had no plans to change his career to become a pharmacist in the short term. Moreover, this kind of physical poison formula did not seem to be of much use to wizards, so it was really unnecessary to spend 400 magic crystals for it.
He picked up many books in succession, but most of them were extremely common basic theories. Occasionally, he would find some improved witchcraft models, but the prices were all ridiculously high. This made Grimm read and shook his head. He walked through the library for most of the time, but only selected three books of some value.
This is inevitable!
After all, this library is only a public library open to the public in the Mota City Wizard Tower. Only wandering wizards or those with limited money will visit this place.
As for the truly valuable knowledge, it is obviously stored somewhere else, and it is only open to members of the Wizard Tower. Only a floating duckweed without a foundation like the Black Hand Association is willing to regard this place as its headquarters and can undertake some daily tasks of the Wizard Tower. It is possible to be regarded as an internal member of the Wizard Tower and become one of the maintainers of the public area!
"Hey, kid from the Sarupo family, there seems to be a little girl looking for you outside..." The voice of the old wizard came.
"Got it!" Grimm came to the door with 3 books, handed in the magic crystal, and asked the old wizard to remove the protective magic array on the books.
When Grimm came out through the light gate, he really saw Alice outside.
The apprentice Tole was not there, and it seemed that he had been beaten away by Alice.
"I have booked the boat ticket for tomorrow afternoon, and I will stay at the Bruceland Hotel tonight!"
After this period of contact, Alice seemed to have accepted her fate and was no longer as irritable as before. Once she calmed down, with the wisdom of a quasi-witch, she could help Grimm solve a lot of unnecessary troubles!
Following Alice to the hotel, Grimm directly ordered the waiter to deliver food and drinks to the room. He quickly recorded the contents of the three books into the chip database, and then continued to study those extremely strange runes from other worlds.
After receiving the warning and reminder from the old wizard, Grimm also put away his plan to wander around Mota City and stayed in the hotel.
Until Alice and Kirby came to remind him that the time to board the ship was almost up!
…………
When Grimm brought Alice and Kirby to the stop in Mota City, a flying ship similar to the last time was slowly landing on the green lawn of a highland.
There were no hot air balloons or propellers, only the wide and flat bottom of the airship was shining with golden light, and a faintly visible magic array was stimulating the airflow of varying strengths, supporting it to fall steadily.
The airship that Grimm took last time seemed to have a pointed bottom, and it was obviously not as capable of carrying as the flat bottom one in front of him.
There were crowds of people near the platform.
Trucks loaded with cargo have been waiting here for a long time. A large group of sturdy coolies hummed and shouted, first carrying the cargo out of the cabin, and then loading in new cargo. .
On the lawns around the highlands, some people wearing wizard robes were chatting leisurely and seemed to be waiting to board the ship.
It didn't take half an hour for the goods to be unloaded.
As a result, the wizards and some guys dressed as nobles who were passengers began to board the ship one after another, and stood on the edge of the ship's rail and waved down frequently.
There were shouts and cries from the lawn below the boat.
Soon, as the energy fluctuations of the witch formation at the bottom of the ship gradually increased, and wrapped in strong wind particles, the flying ship shook slightly and left the ground.
Looking at the gradually rising flying ship, in a wooden house in the distance, two wizards were looking at this side with sinister and ferocious eyes, with strong unwillingness and resentment in their eyes.
"Sir, are you just going to let him go like this?" A middle-aged wizard with a thin face said bitterly.
"What else can we do if we don't let him go?" The other wizard turned out to be the president of the Black Hand Association, the green dwarf Pairo: "This is Mota City, and it's not our turn to take charge! That old guy They have warned me that if I dare to kill the visiting wizards in Mota City, they will refuse to provide us with shelter! At that time, the poisonous loach of the Salupo family will probably be eager to swallow us! "
"This guy called the Fire Demon is also very alert. He actually hid in the hotel without leaving the hotel, causing some of our secret plans to come to nothing. Did he receive some news?" The skinny wizard was still indignant.
"I already know this! It seems like it was done by the old guys. They secretly warned that kid!" Palo's eyes flashed with viciousness.
"Sir, you should be careful in the organization!" The thin wizard said hesitantly: "I heard..."
"What did you hear?"
"I heard that an organization is already in contact with Feinan and Warrier!"
Pairo was suddenly startled when he heard this.
It took him more than two hundred years to recruit these six first-level wizards in the organization. The loss of one of the strongest Maisilan some time ago was enough to make him heartbroken. If someone takes advantage of the Black Hand Association's downturn to take away a few of the remaining wizards, how will his dream of the Palo family be realized?
"What have you heard? Tell me quickly and carefully..."
The two wizards put their heads together and began to talk in a low voice.
Greem, who knew nothing about all this, was standing on the edge of the ship's side, silently looking down at the scenery below him.
The flying ship rose higher and higher, and everything on the ground became smaller and smaller.
Even the towering wizard tower that originally towered into the sky now looked a bit slender, more like a thick cigar inserted into a big cake.
The area where Mota City is located, viewed from a high altitude, reveals gray-white ground and colorful buildings. Around the city, there are large golden wheat fields and square grid-like human villages and towns. A little further away, there are rolling green forests and gray-white trails like sheep intestines.
The roads opened by humans are winding and winding, and from time to time there are even thinner forks. From a distance, these gray-white paths look more like blood vessels growing out of the green forest.
As the spacecraft continued to rise, the temperature around the body began to drop significantly. The cold wind howled by, making people shiver.
Of course, such a small problem could not trouble a wizard. As a layer of faint red fluorescence appeared on his body, Greem became warm again.
Since choosing Fire Specialization, the elemental particles of other lineages have basically begun to repel Grim. This also indicates that it is difficult for Greem to successfully release other elemental witchcrafts with his own power, and he can only go to the dark side in the fire element!
Fortunately, there are witchcraft equipment like magic wands in the world. A magic wand enchanted with the water-making technique can prevent Greem from dying of thirst in the desert, and a magic wand enchanted with the flying technique can also prevent him from falling to death from the sky.
If that doesn't work, he still has some demon puppets of different shapes and types in his belt that can be used.
Therefore, even though he was entrenched nearly a thousand meters in the sky, Greem never worried about his own safety.
The scenery under the boat quickly became accustomed to it, and it was no longer difficult to attract Grim's attention. So, he shifted his attention to the deck of the flying ship.
Those nobles obviously couldn't withstand the cold at high altitude and had already got back into the cabin. The only ones who could stay on the deck were wizards. Moreover, each of their bodies was covered with a faint fluorescent light, and they obviously had their own means of keeping away the cold. chapter;
