I have a magical world

Chapter 108 Going out of the city and Lao Baji [Qiu Zhui Order Ⅱ]

The four of them took a passing carriage and headed outside the West City Gate.

Chen Xuan leaned against the smelly car railing.

During the slightly bumpy drive, he couldn't help but recall the conversation he had with Jason Ironforge when they parted ways in the tavern, and he couldn't help but curl his lips.

At that time, the dwarf blacksmith kept muttering: "I was fooled."

Seeing his regretful look, Chen Xuan asked him a question.

"Why didn't you have any doubts when I said I would only sign a slave contract for one water clock?"

This question made the dwarf furious, but he did not dare to explode.

"You deserve... to be blessed!"

"I conclude dozens of contracts every Naraya Day!"

"By the wisdom of the ancestors of the Three Castles, even the Great Prophet of Ironforge is still alive and doesn't know about you... Can you modify the contract?"

The Naloa Aboriginal people have a deep-rooted impression of the contract.

This cannot be changed even if Di Renjie comes.

After hearing his reasons, Chen Xuan raised a new question.

"What if I asked you to sign a slave contract for half a Naloa month?"

"Humph, don't even think about it!"

"You deserve...praise, Master!"

"If we can't reach an agreement at that time, I will use other methods and we can always get it done!"

"Instead of being a slave for half a Naloa month for no reason!"

Chen Xuan was deeply impressed by Jason Iron Furnace's expression when he said this.

And his answer was simple.

"Now you will be a slave for more than half a month."

"Okay, don't feel sorry for yourself, at least I have no interest in dwarves' butts."

…

Chen Xuan recalled it and couldn't help but smile.

Pulling back his thoughts, he focused on action.

Chen Xuan did not bring too many people with him on this exploration trip to the Monster Crypt.

Only he, Kitten Girl and Dora, the two sisters, wanted to travel quickly and lightly.

There are secrets hidden in that cave, and there may be more fragments of the Rose Key.

That was the "nutrient" he needed to strengthen his golden fingers.

This is not comparable to ordinary benefits.

Chen Xuan carried more than two hundred magic tears with him. No matter how arrogant the monster was, he had to kneel down and sing conquest in front of such a arrogant fighting style.

In addition to the packaged magic tears, he also has a "massive" 50KG mercury storage tank.

To be honest, if he was serious about it, he could even "drown" all the monsters in the cave alive with magic tears.

As for why the dwarf blacksmith was not brought along in this operation.

The reason is also very simple.

First of all, it was because Chen Xuan didn't want to attract the attention of the Blacksmiths Association.

The third-level blacksmith left his job rashly. If he said there was no problem, no one would believe it.

Secondly, Chen Xuan is also very concerned about the "magic modification" of bicycles. As long as Jason is on duty, the modification plan of the Blacksmith Association can become his bag.

Finally, Chen didn't want to reveal his other secrets in front of Jason so soon.

In the past, there was no choice, but now the situation has changed a lot, and naturally there is no need to live shoulder to shoulder.

Just take a few people with you, and even if things go wrong, it will be easier to run away.

In the future, his subordinates will only increase in number.

Contracts are one of his best means of rapid conquest.

This is a method that is inherently coercive and far from honorable.

But the means are never good or bad.

What is useful is a good means, what is useless is a bad means.

Chen Xuan never uses false and naive noble words to cover up the various purposes he places on the contract.

The reality is not those stories of hegemony that have been beautified by later generations. A certain son of destiny can conquer the world as long as he shakes his body.

Before someone is strong enough to ignore everything, there is no judgment whether any method is noble or not for Chen.

Back to topic.

Judging from the information provided by Ophelia before.

The crypt in Ea Forest is just a monster crypt marked [Small] in the records of the Adventurer Association.

But Chen Xuan learned from the dying succubus that there was a secret passage there.

In addition, Catgirl reported back to him what happened when Chloë Leon's farm was destroyed.

It is enough to prove that the cave is not simple, and it is most likely a higher-level monster cave.

Ever since he saw monsters fighting and plundering each other, he began to re-examine the group of monsters.

Especially after he discovered that the transmission channel in the crypt was related to the Rose Key, he also thought about a problem, that is, the monsters invaded Naroa with the help of the passage built by the Rose Key fragments.

And he used the ability given by the Rose Key phantom to perform [cross-border] operations.

There must be something in common between the two.

But he still didn't know what the meaning behind the Rose Key was.

All the above confusions made Chen Xuan feel itchy and he wished he could just put on his wings and fly over.

After the four people left the city, they got off the carriage and prepared to walk through the temporary stalls and bustling crowds outside the city gate.

The two sisters Dora seemed to be in high spirits. This rare opportunity to go out of the city gave them a long-lost feeling of "freedom".

Moreover, the landform and climate near Magatan City are very different from those in the eastern part of the mainland.

So along the way, the two sisters were chatting in the ancient dialect of the Eastern Region.

Rebecca followed Chen Xuan quietly, with a complicated expression on her face hidden by the hood, as if she was recalling some not-so-good memories.

This time when going out, Chen Xuan no longer forces everyone to wear tactical goggles under normal circumstances.

They just put on a bulletproof vest with a chest plate, a tactical helmet, and a loose hooded jacket.

Strange-shaped armor and helmets are acceptable to the Naloa natives.

But the avant-garde style tactical goggles are not good, they are too eye-catching when walking on the road.

Even with the acceptance of the fusion of all races in Naraya, it is still a bit too eye-catching and dazzling.

And it’s not comfortable to wear that thing all the time.

So Chen Xuan simply asked everyone to take off their goggles.

This will save you a lot of prying eyes.

There is a large open space outside the city gate, and a street market has spontaneously formed here, which is very lively every time you pass by.

While the two sisters Dora were chatting enthusiastically, no one noticed that behind one of the stalls, a guy with a sinister eyebrow was talking to a furbolg while peeking at the backs of Dora and others from the corner of his eye.

"Those two women seem to be speaking ancient dialects from the Eastern Region?"

"Could it be the person with the Eastern slaves that Sorel said?"

"That guy promised 1,000 crowns to find clues!"

This guy's name is Franco Budge, nicknamed "Old Budge".

On the surface, he is a hawker setting up a stall outside the West City Gate, but in fact, he is the "eyes" of the Broken Finger Gang in the underworld in the city.

As the name suggests, he often provides intelligence to the underworld in exchange for certain rewards.

The stall is just a cover. In fact, most of the guys who come and go outside the West City Gate every day cannot escape his prying eyes.

Thinking of the generous reward, Old Baji immediately abandoned the furbolg he was bargaining with, ran after him along the stall, and then looked at Chen Xuan and others from the corner of his eye.

This guy is well versed in the characteristics of adventurers, and knows that if he looks directly with his eyes, it will easily arouse his keen senses, so his observation method is more clever.

After following for a distance, Old Buggy felt more and more that they were the people mentioned by Sorel Moran, the garrison captain.

"made money!"

"This news is worth a thousand crowns!"

"I have to leave some marks!"

He thought to himself, reached into the secret pocket on his chest and took out a small wooden box with ventilation holes.

Quietly approaching the two sisters walking at the end of the team from behind.

There were so many people in the market outside the city. Although everyone consciously kept a certain distance, it was enough to give him the opportunity to get closer.

But he didn't expect that he had just approached the half-meter range behind Sister Dora.

Yucca and Beria noticed it.

They turned around and glared at Old Buggy, looking murderous.

This made him tremble, who already had a ghost in his heart, and quickly slowed down.

I heard that those born warriors are particularly keen on what's behind them.

Franco Budge, this cunning and greedy underworld informant, only dared to follow them more than ten meters behind, and continued to wait for the opportunity to strike.

Not long after, Chen Xuan, who was taking the lead, suddenly stopped in front of a fruit stall.

This stall sells "Honey Jade Fruit", which is light green in color and the size of a grapefruit. It has an average taste and is not too sweet. I'm sorry for the word "honey", but it has enough water and is not small in size. Travelers often buy it. several.

While Chen Xuan and others were buying fruit, Franco Bage quietly approached from the side, pretending to be a passerby who was about to pass by.

The two sisters Dora's attention was also attracted by the fruits on the stall.

Taking this opportunity, Old Buggy opened the wooden box and found two small gray bees inside.

He popped one of them out and hung it on Beria's pocket near his lower back.

The tapered legs and mouthparts bite the fabric of the jacket tightly.

At this time, another little bee also flapped its wings to follow, but Old Buggy quickly closed the box with quick eyes and hands.

With a look of ecstasy on his face, he did not continue to follow, but returned towards the city.

Beria, who was originally looking at the fruit, looked thoughtful and raised his hand to pat his back.

After Chen Xuan paid the money at the stall, everyone had a [Honey Jade Fruit]. When he saw her look, he asked one more question.

"What's wrong Beria?"

"No, it's okay."

Beria scratched his head, held the [Honey Jade Fruit] and took a big bite.

With Chen Xuan here, food poisoning is impossible.

Eating [Honey Jade Fruit], the four of them continued walking towards the west.

Just walk through this busy street and find a hidden place to take out your mountain bike.

As for the original 28-bars, he asked Ophelia to take them to the "White Rose" caravan's station for backup.

And today seems to be some kind of "March Festival" in Naroa. The streets are full of people and it is not suitable for riding bicycles.

So he simply chose to take a carriage and follow other animal-drawn convoys out of the city.

After wandering around for more than ten minutes, Chen Xuan and others entered the village on the western outskirts of the city.

Using spatial perception to explore, he found a corner behind an unoccupied house and took out four mountain bikes. Everyone rode one toward the Eya Forest, which was twenty or thirty miles away.

While protecting Ophelia, the two sisters Dora also learned to ride bicycles.

For magic practitioners with excellent physical fitness and reflexes, the barrier to entry for bicycles is almost non-existent.

They only need to try riding a few times and they can basically get started.

This reminded Chen Xuan of the painful experience of being naughty when he was a child and insisting on learning to ride an adult's bicycle, only to get his feet pinched.

This mountain bike made by Laoyang Factory is really good.

It can easily conquer potholes and dirt roads in the suburbs, and the transmission and front tires are well adjusted, allowing for agile and quick steering.

This greatly improves their traffic efficiency!

You must know that when they first arrived, he and Rebecca walked stupidly for several hours!

According to the current riding speed, it would only take them 45 minutes to an hour at most to reach the ruins of Colo Leon's farm.

After crossing the Firefly River, you can reach the Ea Forest on the other side.

The road there was very familiar to Kitten Girl, as she had gone deep into it as a scout for the team.

At the same time, it was also a thorn in her heart. She still didn't have the courage to look at the dark side of that time again.

…

When the four masters and servants of Chen Xuan were heading towards the Eya Forest.

Outside a not too big house in the second circle of the city.

Franco Budge, who had rushed back to the city, was knocking on the door hurriedly.

"Lord Sorel!"

"Open the door!"

"Dong dong dong!"

In a room in the courtyard, Sorel Moran was sleeping soundly with his arms around a heavily made-up daughter-in-law.

A fierce knock on the door woke him.

Today is the day he and his team take turns to rest. Baron Bezos's emergency assembly plan was postponed, so they can rest normally.

It was not yet the second water clock on Sunday, and he didn't know what stinky piece of shit came to disturb his sweet dream.

"Honey, there's someone knocking on the door."

The charming female branch girl twisted her body and poked his chest lightly with a finger.

"Damn it, don't talk to me!"

"Put the money on the table. You can get dressed and go back later!"

"Now, go and rinse your mouth with orchid and vanilla!"

Sorel cursed, and the daughter-in-law jumped off the bed without getting angry.

He twisted his waist and walked into the bathroom.

Ignoring the daughter-in-law, Sorel quickly put on a set of boxers, put on a white lining, opened the door and walked into the yard.

The voice of the caller felt familiar to him, but he had come into contact with so many people that he couldn't remember it at all.

Only when he got closer to the door and took a look did he recognize Old Buggy.

Pulling open the metal door latch, Sorel grabbed him by the collar and dragged him into the yard, then kicked the door shut with his heel.

"I recognize you."

"You are one of the 'eyes' of the Broken Finger Gang!"

"What does it seem to be called Laojiba? Or Laobaji?"

"Damn it, it doesn't matter!"

"You better find out some good news and tell me."

"I don't like others to disturb my sleep. If you can't say anything useful, you will spend tonight in the prison of the Garrison Security Department."

Sorel narrowed his eyes and said through gritted teeth.
