Chapter 20 Nova Chamber of Commerce

"Third Update!"

The sound of horses' hoofs clicks, echoing each other with the sound of water dripping from the eaves, like a pleasant dance song. The dancers rotated and jumped in the rain, splashing water after splash.

The autumn storm has arrived.

In just one night, the city bathed in sunlight was covered by thick and low dark clouds. The heavy rain poured down, as if to wash away the filth in the dark corners of the city. The lightning that occasionally cuts through the sky is the angry thunder of the goddess. However, they always wander between heaven and earth and can't land on the earth.

The hawkers on the street disappeared, and pedestrians were few and walked in a hurry. They dressed in sedges and walked under the intermittent eaves, turning a blind eye to the shops around them. The clerk in the store cursed in a low voice and sighed at the rain like a curtain.

"I hate this kind of weather." A girl in the carriage said sullenly. Her voice was magnetic, but now she was anxious. Her eyes were lifeless, and her long straight red hair seemed to lose its luster. He shrugged weakly on his shoulders. The rain will wet everything and extinguish the flames.

Li Ou doesn't know if her words have a deep meaning.

But he turned his head and looked at the other party, "Slee Rosie." He shouted.

"Xue Li is my name, and Rosie is part of my surname." The girl corrected, "My full name is Shirley Fedmila Rosie Roye Hilmeyer." She said the long full name in one breath - which usually represents the glorious family history. You can call me Xue Li, or you can call me Luo Xi directly.

"Rosie." Li Ou chose a smooth name. Don't you think your behavior is like a scoundrel?"

When she visited the alchemist's studio as a guest in the name of curiosity and saw Leo's wide variety of alchemy materials, she kept cheering for spirits, gold and gems. Then he arbitrarily advocated to be his guard. Leo was directly deprived of the right to refuse.

"You urgently need a mage to be your assistant." Her excuse is righteous. Look at the array you drew, I can pick out 50 mistakes and omissions from above.

Her words made Li Ou unable to refute; even Lu Yuewu, who was beside him, stared at his magic array for a long time, trying to find out the fallacy that was dangerous enough to trigger an explosion and blow up the house.

Rosie's magic knowledge is unexpectedly extensive; her magic is easy to control and exquisite; her hands-on ability is particularly outstanding. None of them is much more than Leo.

The final result is obvious.

However, just when Leo thought that she had forgotten the purpose of her coming to the door, she shamelessly added, "I am already your guard and magic consultant, so should I return my staff?"

The mage sitting in the carriage gave Li Ou a headache. He felt that the decision he made that day might be the stupidest one in years. It must have been hot-headed at that time. Li Ou thought angrily about leaning his head against the hard wall of the car. Otherwise, she would have given a charming spell.

"A scoundrel is better than a thief." She responded to Leo's previous words. The rain came in through the crack of the curtain and wet her robe and her hair. Damn the weather. She cursed in a low voice, "The fire elves will take a vacation at this time, but we still have to go out in the rain. My employer, what are we going to do?"

"You will know when you get there." Leo replied impatiently.

"Okay. But don't expect my spells to come in handy." Red-haired Rosie said. She glanced at the rain-covered sky outside the carriage, then turned her head with frustration and looked at Leo and the land moon dance boredly. Finally, she fixed her eyes on the sword around their waist. In this way, I think I will also need a long sword to protect myself. If you don't mind, can you lend me your sword?"

"It is a double-edged sword. Are you sure you won't hurt yourself?"

And Lu Yuewu is more straightforward. There is a dagger hidden under your robe. The sharp sight swept over everything and there was nothing to escape. It is sharper than the long sword we made.

"What a tacit understanding." Miss Mage hummed dissatisfiedly, "If I don't know the relationship between you. I thought you were using a couple's sword.

"Suit your mouth." Lu Yuewu frowned and warned her.

"Otherwise?"

A cold light flashed. Before Miss Mage could react, the sword was pointed at her throat. I haven't admitted that you are our companion yet. Lu Yuewu stared at her coldly and issued a clear warning.

Only Lu Yuewu can restrain the proud mage.

But it's too much.

"Moon dance, put down the sword." Leo grabbed her wrist and said, "That's just Rosie's joke."

"In my opinion, this is no longer a joke." She said so, but still obediently put the long sword back to its sheath. Weird Oriental." Rosie couldn't help slandering. The scabbard then stamped heavily on the board and let out a "bang" sound.

"Sir, Miss, please don't fight in the carriage." The groom who drove the car pleaded outside.

"Knot your ears!" Miss Rosie punched the partition and roared loudly.

After driving for an hour, the carriage stopped on a spacious street near Albatross Harbor. Next to it is the office of the Nova Chamber of Commerce. It is a stone building like a small castle, which has been weathered for a long time. The white jade stone has been dyed with a layer of dark green. On the lint leading to the hall, it is decorated with the sea monster coat of arms.

Leo walked into the hall.

The hall was messy and full of people sheltering from the rain.

There are not only dusty, tired caravan stewards and foot merchants who go on their roads alone; there are also captains with rough and red skin, tied headscarves, but lifeless in their eyes; of course, there are even fewer people who wear gorgeous clothes, perfume on their hair, and play Lute while playing the role of a spy. Bard.

They are now gathered together in a small circle.

Only now that the heavy rain has come, all commercial activities seem to have stopped. At this moment, only the waitress is still busy filling them with wine glasses so that they can moisten their throats when they brag and curse.

The receptionist lying on the counter listening to gossip saw them coming in and raised her head weakly, "Hello, what can I do for you?" She said formulaily. Even the smile on his face was like crying at the god for such a boring time.

"I want to meet Mr. Haile Hurt. Is he there?"

"Hayl Hurt?" The receptionist took out a thick notebook, "Please wait." As she inquired, she asked, "Do you have an appointment?" The hall was noisy one after another, and the girl's voice was almost submerged in the roar of the waves.

Li Ou pointed to the gathered crowd, "Everyone is on vacation in such weather. Mr. Hurt must be no exception.

"Of course, there are no exceptions. He is with us." Next to him was a Thean man in a pointed felt hat and laughed. One of his companions, a guy with short sleeves, immediately picked up his mouth and stood up and shouted to the other side of the hall, "Hey, Hutt, there is a boy looking for you. Oh, by the way, there are two very beautiful ladies. Standing in front of them is as pleasant as the clear sky.

His voice overshadowed most people's voices. For a moment, Leo felt countless eyes on him. Most of them have swept by, but there are also idle and boring guys who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic.

"Look, he is an alchemist. Ainblo's pride." One man shouted in a strange tone, hidden in the laughing crowd. Your badge is based on the five-pointed star. But our Mr. Hurt is very busy. I'm afraid he won't meet the distinguished 'alchemy apprentice'.

"Other people are already formal alchemists." Another person corrected it.

"Yes, yes, it's only one level higher than the alchemy apprentice. It's like ravens are a little fatter than ravens, but they are still as black. Everyone laughed loudly.

Li Ou frowned and glanced around, but he still couldn't find who was against him and mocked him unscrupulously.

"Don't let me see him!" Rosie suppressed her anger, and her fingertips were ready to move. He'd better hide forever!"

"There." Lu Yuewu suddenly raised her hand.

A fat middle-aged man sits at a round table. He is surrounded by strong and dressed as a shield for soldiers. As soon as he saw Lu Yuewu's movements, he reflexively shrank his neck and lowered his head.

But Leo and Rosie have found him.

He wears a gray robe and a blue belt at his waist, decorated with gems and magic words. On his chest, he was embroidered with the badge of the Mage Guild.

"Who do I think it is? It turns out to be the mage." Leo stopped Rosie's attempt to rush up and pull it out, raised his volume and said loudly, "Do you think I will be blinded by your curse if you hide in the crowd and meditate: 'You can't see me, you can't see me'? It seems that you are exactly the same as the ostrich in the Desert. When they play rogues, they will bury their heads in the sand. Master, would you like me to bring you a bucket of sand? There are so many on the beach that I don't mind going there.

His words attracted a lot of cheers. They are eager to have some fun in this damn weather. Leo just fulfilled their wishes.

"I don't mind either." Everyone raised their glasses and responded.

"Come and perform. This is a good play that is not in the circus.

But Li Ou still did not intend to let go of the master and guest who had changed positions, which seemed particularly pitiful mage.

"Don't talk, weren't you good at talking just now?" Eye for eye and tooth for tooth is the way to survive. It's really weird. Didn't you tie your tongue by reciting a long spell? I was going to kindly untie it for you. But you must eat too much dog mouth, not only the saliva splashes the tongue smoothly, but also inherits the characteristics of the barking of the vicious dog.

A sound of loud laughter. It's just that this time the object has been replaced by the originator.

Luoxi stared at Li Ou fiercely, just because he scolded her. But when she heard it, she was obviously relieved. She patted Leo on the shoulder happily, "Good job." She said, "I think it's wise to follow you. You are much better than those rigid mages. If you are not as stingy as them."

There are three words without money. Leo secretly curled his lips.

The fat mage's face turned red and white. His eyes were full of anger, and the muscles and blue veins on his face were twisting and struggling. He suddenly stood up, his fat fingers pointed to Leo, and a blue frost flashed in his palm.

The hall is like boiling water.

The waitresses screamed hysterically and rushed to the top of the sky. The timid guests rolled and crawled around to hide, the tables and chairs were overturned in the chaos, and their wine glasses fell to the ground. But there are also well-informed guys who are as stable as Mount Tai. They watched this rare play with great interest.

"Don't cast spells here!" One person kindly advised, "It is forbidden to cast spells in the seagull area!" If you want to use it, you have to pay taxes... It's enough to bankrupt you." The Association of Mage has applied for abolition in the city hall last year!" Another person answered quickly.

"I have to thank the alchemist!" The fat mage shouted loudly, and his suppressed anger spewed out. It's not because of you!" His spell is short and eager. With a deep roar, a cold breath spewed out from his palm.

But then the dazzling orange flame that suddenly appeared defeated his last self-esteem.

Flame and frost devour each other and eventually turn into permeated water vapor.

"I hate this damn weather." Miss Mage shook her long hair like fire, and her amber pupils sparkled. "It almost extinguished the flame." For the first time, Li Ou felt that her proud tone was so beautiful.

At this time, a black-haired man in a purple silk coat with golden tassels came over. Mr. Leo." He smiled and asked politely, turning a blind eye to the chaos around him. Are you going to visit my brother?

"Do you enjoy watching it?" Rosie looked at him sideways and said coldly, "Who is better than the opera we starred in than the opera shown in the Orivilla Theater?"

This time, Leo did not stop Miss Mage's idea at all. He smiled and waited for her to finish, appreciate the stiff expression of Mr. Hurt for a while, and then explained his intention. I brought greetings from the old dwarf.

It's hard for him to keep smiling. Leo felt that his face was about to cramp.

"My brother is in there. Come with me." He said.

He made an invitation gesture and turned around and walked in first.
