Chapter 9 Lan Qi is about to start making cards
Putting on his coat, Lan Qi picked up the law code borrowed from the frontier library on the table and walked out of the room.
As the morning light gradually brightened, the outside world became clearer.
After enjoying breakfast as usual, exchanging greetings with the butler Hans, and saying goodbye to the maid Francine, Lankey walked straight out of the mansion and walked towards the street corner in his memory.
Soon, he saw Talia standing by the wall.
"Good morning, Tata."
Lan Qi greeted Talia who had been waiting early in the morning.
Earlier, when Ranky asked Talia's name, Talia didn't tell him her real name.
Instead, he said his name was "Tata".
Although Lan Qi knew her real name long ago, he had to pretend not to know it.
Otherwise, accidentally calling out the title "Talia" will definitely cause big problems.
There is no reason for me, an ordinary commoner, to know the true identity of this demon princess.
So Lan Qi naturally called her by the pseudonym "Tata".
"Ah."
Thalia just nodded and ignored Lan Qi.
When Lan Qi started today's trip, she followed him at a not too close or far distance.
……
About half an hour later, Lan Qi and Thalia arrived at the Card Maker Association-the branch of the South Wantina Border Territory of the Kingdom of Hutton.
Before Lan Qi touched the heavy door, a mysterious energy began to pervade the door of the Card Creators Association.
In front of his eyes, driven by this force, the ancient coat of arms on the black iron-like metal door gradually shone with a faint blue light, as if it had life, beating with magical energy.
With a slight vibration, the gap in the door of the Card Creators Association gradually changed from narrow to wide.
What caught my eye was a scene completely different from the outside world——
The interior space of the association is simple and elegant. Except for the well-organized counter area, there are not too many cumbersome decorations, and the whole layout gives people a sense of order.
Although it is only in the morning, the association is already full of busy staff.Many visiting guests were waiting in front of the counter, discussing topics related to magic cards and Shadow World.
Lan Qi just took a step and stepped into this magnificent and magnificent building, when he suddenly stopped.
"Tata, I'm not sure when it will end today, why don't you go in with me?"
He looked back at Talia and asked.
Since reaching a deal with Talia, these days he almost always told Talia about his itinerary in advance, including when to leave in the morning and when to go home in the evening.
And Thalia is also very dedicated as a bodyguard.
Before Lan Qi went to the Border Library or the Card Makers Association, Thalia would wait outside the door until he came out.
The guarding power of this important place is not weak, and Lan Qi explained to her that there are some places where she does not need to be accompanied.
For example, Lan Qi's family, as long as Lan Qi is sent back to the mansion, she no longer needs to protect Lan Qi.
In addition, Lan Qi himself is very clear that Talia does not have the identity to enter these places.
Now she is just an unidentified stowaway in Hutton Kingdom.
If you are investigated for breaking into the branches of these large associations, it may cause a lot of trouble.
"No."
There was no emotion in Talia's tone.
But her voice was as distant as ever.
Lan Qi sighed, and looked at her with his hips crossed:
"I may come here for a long time every day in the future. If you wait outside for me every day... Maybe this feeling of squatting will be more conspicuous?"
"..."
His words silenced Talia, who seemed to be thinking about it.
"Don't you think it will be much more convenient for your work if you also freely enter and exit the Card Creator Association?"
Lankey asked again,
"It's like this. I will rent the card making workshop in the association. There is no one else in the card making room except me. You can just stay in the card making room to pass the time. If someone in the association asks , I’ll just say you’re my bodyguard.”
While speaking, Lan Qi took out his savings crystal card.
Obviously, the highest level.
The Card Maker Association of the border city-state will not offend a distinguished guest like him at will.
"it is good."
Thalia hesitated for a moment, nodded slightly and followed.
Compared to waiting outside, she actually wanted to take a look at the Human Card Creator Association.
It's a pity that I have suffered from no legal status for many years.
This human being... always hits the right button to make her happy.
……
Not long after Lan Qi took Talia into the association, a deacon walked up to Lan Qi to receive him.
Although he is not a registered card maker of the association, the staff of the association know that Lan Qi came as a "businessman".
After all, Lan Qi's family is the well-known Wilfort Chamber of Commerce on the border of South Wantina.
"I want to rent a high-end single-room card making workshop, and I need some materials."
Lan Qi expressed his intention to the deacon concisely and handed him a list.
Then the deacon nodded respectfully and extended his hand to invite the two to follow him.
Under the leadership of the deacon, they bypassed half of the indoor area on the first floor of the association, and they reached the third floor of the association from a suspended staircase.
The corridors of this building seem to be decades old, but in order to retain some artistic sense, they did not choose to over-renovate.
At the end of the corridor, a room with a purple sign on the door greeted Lan Qi and Thalia.
The deacon opened the door for them, then stepped aside, indicating that the two of them could enter.
"Mr. Lankey Wilford, the rental fee is 1 pound per hour. You can settle the rental bill when you leave. I will send the materials later."
The deacon manipulated the small magic device in his hand for a while, and handed him back the crystal card engraved with Lan Qi's identity.
"OK, thanks."
Lan Qi chatted with the deacon at the door.
Thalia stood silently near Lan Qi, looking around.
She knew at a glance that there was a complete set of card making facilities in this spacious card making workshop, and all of them were relatively high-end equipment.
Having these things in a border city-state is considered pretty good.
Talia couldn't remember how long it had been since she last touched these familiar tools.
But she doesn't want to touch these things at all now.
The magic cards she made, engraved with demon text, cannot be traded in the human kingdom at will.
If he leaves his feet and is tracked down by the Human Kingdom Alliance Council, it will only cause fatal trouble...
……
It didn't take long for the staff to prepare and deliver the materials purchased on Lankey's list as promised.
In addition to regular materials such as whiteboard cards, energy crystals, rubbing magic stones, magic core liquid, etc., there are also a bunch of scrolls.
The main materials needed to make the three types of magic cards are different.
Equipment cards must have equipment prototypes and props such as enchanting and encapsulation.
Summoning cards require materials such as monster crystal cores or soul crystals.
The production of spell cards requires magic scrolls as materials, which must be processed and rewritten.
As a practice, spell cards are undoubtedly the best choice.
Because a large part of the materials and crafts required by the spell card have been integrated by the magic scroll.
Compared with creating from scratch, making spell cards is closer to a kind of "reprocessing"!
"In addition to staying here, you can leave at any time, as long as you find the deacon just now, he will bring you in."
Lan Qi picked up a chair and placed it not too far from the workbench, indicating that it was for Thalia.
Thalia nodded.
She also doesn't like standing around waiting for a day.
So Thalia walked to this seat and sat down gently, with her back straight and her hands lightly folded on her knees, like a noble queen.
She stared at the front indifferently, and didn't seem to take the surrounding things into her attention.
But after sitting down, she found out.
It seems that the next thing to do is to watch the kid in front of him make cards to pass the time.
