I have a magical world

Chapter 95 The Dark Side of the Garrison, Advancement to Bronze Level, Rainy Night [Pursuit Order III]

"I swear in the name of the great late king of the Three Fort dwarves, it is really not us who did it!"

"This is a misunderstanding! A huge misunderstanding!"

Steelfire Bronzebeard and his team members had their weapons taken away, and their hands were bound with tough magic spider silk.

This thing can suppress the use of magic energy below the silver level, and is a commonly used binding device in the city.

"Shut up! Walk faster!"

"You murderous little can!"

"The last guy we put in jail said the same thing!"

The leading garrison officer scolded him mercilessly.

A bunch of rune keys hung on his waist and jingled as he walked.

At that time, in Stinky Rat Alley, the team of light riders blew the magic horn after seeing the ruins at the scene.

It can react with the horns carried by garrison teams within a certain range of the surrounding area.

The Steel Fire Team immediately turned around and tried to escape through the ditch, trying to leave the city first.

But there was no way they could outrun the half-bred horse sitting on the light rider's lap.

Moreover, the light riders are quick-reaction units in the garrison. Their equipment is rope loops, nets, trip locks, flying crossbows, etc., and they are specialized in dealing with escaping guys.

After realizing that they couldn't escape, the Steel Fire Squad prepared to violently resist arrest.

This is common in cities and towns in various regions.

Adventurers are such a group.

If you can run, run. If you really can't, then fight.

As long as you escape from the city, you can live in another area, which is better than going to prison.

However, these light riders are not newbies.

Various methods were used to greet the Steel Fire Team, which delayed it for a long time.

It wasn't until more garrisons arrived that the Steel Fire Squad finally became honest.

At this moment, they were being escorted to the Public Security Department by one of the garrison troops.

Because of previous violent resistance, Gang Huo was whipped frequently.

"Sir, why don't you talk about how much it will cost to release me and my companions?"

After arguing to no avail, Steelfire and Bronzebeard still refused to give up. He lowered his voice and tried to bribe.

Hearing what he said, the eyes of the garrison officer who led the team lit up.

"bribe?"

"Are you rich?"

"Hey hey hey!"

With that said, the young officer looked at the luggage on the packhorse behind.

It contains storage bags and bottles and cans that were found from Gang Huo and others.

These things are inspected before loading into the vehicle.

Based on inherent cognitive thinking, most adventurers will deposit money in currency exchange shops. Few people carry a large amount of kronor with them, but there may be exceptions.

When the young officer heard Steelfire and Bronzebeard mention money, he immediately discovered his blind spot.

Bribery on the spot must be done with cash.

Thinking of this, he quickly walked to the luggage, opened it completely and checked it again.

Unfortunately, nothing was found.

Steelfire Bronzebeard's eyes rolled around.

This time he learned the lesson and simply said nothing.

The first time he dealt with the garrison, he didn't expect these guys to be so greedy.

The frustrated young officer came back to him, raised his hand and gave him a few more whips.

Suddenly, he seemed to remember something, and raised his hand to grab the crotch of Steel Fire Bronzebeard.

There is a large gap around the skirt armor.

Steel Fire shrank subconsciously, but was immediately kicked upright by the sergeant behind him.

The young officer fiddled with his hands, his expression gradually changed from confusion to surprise!

Soon, under the dwarf's screams and curses, he pulled out a bulging money bag from his crotch!

"Greedy bug!"

"I'm going to chop you into pieces!"

Ignoring the dwarf's scolding, the guy directly stuffed the money bag into his arms.

After thinking for a while, he opened it again, took out a few dark gold coins and divided them among the people in the team.

The soldiers under his command had flattering smiles on their faces. They had no idea how much money their commander had found.

But everyone is a grasshopper on a rope, and this is not the first time they have made money.

Apart from the garrison skin, they are actually not much different from gangsters.

Steelfire and Bronzebeard suffered a huge loss, and immediately felt dissatisfied, thinking of the culprit that caused all this.

The garrison troops were walking down the street, and no one dared to offend them casually.

"Wait! I am willing to confess!"

"I know who the murderer is!"

The young officer sneered at his statement.

He just walked over, patted the dwarf's hard face like he was teasing a child, then turned around and took the reins brought by his men to get on the horse!

"Damn it, what I said is true!"

"That man offended Henry the One-Eyed Cow at the slave auction house at Crooked Bones Street Market!"

"He stole the Zelican slave girl that Henry wanted to photograph!"

"That guy is very rich. He spent 85,000 crowns without blinking an eye!"

At that time, the Steel Fire Team seemed to have left, but was actually still wandering around the auction house. Naturally, they knew what was going to happen, otherwise they would not have been able to track Henry in time.

At first, the young officer still didn't take his words seriously.

Until the dwarf mentioned: "That guy is very rich...".

"Good fellow, tell me everything you know!"

The young officer glanced at his subordinates, and everyone immediately knew what was going on. The escort team split into two teams without even realizing it.

…

More than ten minutes later, the team returned to the road.

The armored dwarf was nowhere to be seen, and the rest of the team members were in a coma where they didn't know whether they were alive or dead.

"Chokeri, go to the East District to investigate this matter. I will give you a leave note later."

"As you command, my lord!"

"Gonzales, wait until today's false night falls and then go to the Qingqi Camp station to find that adult!"

"Tell him that we are going to have meat to eat again, and let him restrain his men."

"yes!"

The junior officer named his two soldiers and issued new orders.

After they left, he looked around and whispered.

"It's still the old rule, check first and act later."

"We still have to patrol as usual today, but when the next Naroa Day goes dark, it happens to be our team's off day, and we will take care of the big things by then."

"Be careful not to drink and brag with other team members during this period!"

"As long as a little bit of news leaks to the commander's ears..."

"Everyone... must go to the gallows!"

His voice was extremely deep, and he stretched out his hand to strangle his neck.

"Don't worry, Lord Sorel!"

"Brothers know what to do!"

…

After receiving unanimous approval from his men, Sorel Moran nodded with satisfaction.

Then his voice returned to its loud state, and he shouted with his chest raised and his head raised.

"alright!"

"Cheer up, everyone!"

"Bring these criminals who were seriously injured due to resistance back to the Sheriff's Department safely!"

"yes!!"

The team continued to move forward, the crisp clang of keys and the sound of horse hooves echoing on the street.

…

One water hour later, in Rat Alley.

All the corpses here have been cleared away.

All that was left was a mess.

It was getting dark at this time, and there was still about half an hour before the false night arrived.

The dark red light of the sun shines on the earth. This is a rare red sunset.

There was a dwarf riding a 28-inch bicycle, looking for clues along the alley.

He wore an insulating leather jacket in front of him, and a small forging hammer was stuck on his waist.

The scene of the incident was found shortly after.

"A violent explosion?"

"right here?"

"It seems that the little mice I found did not lie."

With his short legs, he stepped on the pedal deftly, squeezed the handbrake, and stopped the bicycle steadily.

Then he got out of the car and kicked off the pedals.

After taking out a leather bag with a large capacity, he immediately lay down in front of the ruins and pits and started searching.

After more than ten minutes, the bag in this guy's hand was full.

It's full of shrapnel, warheads, bullet casings, nitrate dust, etc. of various sizes.

"really!"

"The guy who killed Maul Greenleaf did a good job!"

"He must have magic musket technology in his hands that I don't know about!"

"But how do I find him?"

"In the next few Naroa days, there are still bicycle orders from the Kingdom's Western Front Military Supplies Department to be processed..."

"Those shit quartermasters who know nothing but keep making demands!"

"You actually want us to try to strengthen the bicycle with first-level runes?"

"These materials with extremely poor magic conductivity cannot be used to carve rune tracks at all!"

"If we change the materials, the cost will be at least five times higher!"

The dwarf blacksmith thought to himself and couldn't help but shake his head.

He placed the leather bag directly on the flat surface of the back seat and tied it up with a rope.

"Speaking of which, this thing is really easy to ride!"

"No wonder the Munitions Department immediately sent a magic airship from the giant city after receiving the sample!"

"No matter what, let's settle the order issue first on the next Naraya Day."

He jumped back on the bicycle, touched the third-level blacksmith badge on his chest, wiped off the dirt, then took out the flat wine flask he made from his waist and took a big gulp of strong liquor.

"belch!"

After letting out a big sip of alcohol, the dwarf blacksmith looked up at the sky.

"Red clouds? It looks like it's going to rain!"

After muttering something to himself, he rode out of Rat Alley.

Singing loudly while riding.

"La la la la, I am a hardworking blacksmith..."

…

West District, in the small courtyard where Chen Xuan is.

Everyone gathered in the courtyard, each doing their own thing.

The Zerikan sisters were eating.

They each held a box of self-heating hot pot and ate with their mouths full of oil.

Especially the younger sister Beria, there was a circle of red oil on her lips.

My older sister, who was a little more steady, wasn't much better. She even picked up a plastic lunch box and took a big sip of spicy soup.

"It's delicious, but not full!"

"Not full, not full!"

My sister, Yuclan, put down her lunch box without finishing her thoughts, pointed at her flat belly and said seriously.

Sister Beria became the best supporter and echoed.

She is worse at learning common language than her sister, so her vocabulary is very monotonous.

Facts have proved that understanding a foreign language and speaking it well are two different things.

The two sisters can understand 80% of the common language, and further understand through expressions, postures, and tone of voice. Basically, they can understand Chen Xuan's words.

The previous combat cooperation proved this.

Since witnessing his mastery of powerful explosives and magical space means.

The attitude of the two Zerikan sisters became slightly closer again.

Kitten Girl sat nearby and stared at the two girls, looking blank and not knowing what she was thinking.

Chen Xuan heard that they were not full.

Ignoring the six leftover lunch boxes next to them, I took out a few canned meats and four boxes of self-heating hot pot.

Watching Pi Dian Dian's sister Beria running to fetch water, she smiled and said nothing.

He stores all this food in boxes.

The two sisters' stomachs are so good that they can drink chili oil as water.

The painful stimulation brought by the spicy taste made these two foodies happy.

Chen was manually winding the driving spring of the empty M32 grenade gun and loading it.

There were many unmarked oil paper packages of ammunition scattered on the ground.

How exciting it is to shoot, and how long it takes to reload.

Fortunately, he didn't feel bored while sitting in the courtyard, occasionally glancing at the cute cat lady and the two Zerikan foodies.

After loading the last grenade into the magazine, Chen Xuan stood up and twisted his neck.

"Rebecca, I'm going to practice for a while, and then go back there..."

"You will take them with you."

"Don't quarrel. It's best to teach them how to use the pistol."

"Better not go out until I get back."

He warned the cat lady and took out two brand-new Beretta M9 pistols, magazines and ammunition.

There are more than two hundred of this thing in the arms inventory, which is suitable as a training weapon for the slave girl army in another world. As long as you master the pistol, it is very simple to get started with other firearms.

The kitten girl bowed respectfully.

The loose linen lining suddenly became empty.

Chen Xuan had a panoramic view of everything that should be seen and what should not be seen.

"This goblin!"

His eyes were uncontrollable again, and he couldn't help but complain in his heart.

"But speaking of it, wasn't the cat girl a fairy in ancient Xia Kingdom?"

After curling his lips, he turned to look at the Zerikan sisters, not noticing how much the corners of Rebekah's lips raised when she stood up.

"Yucca, and Belia, you all have to listen to Rebecca when I'm not around!"

"Don't just go out and kill people!"

Chen Xuan explained seriously, and added another sentence just to be on the safe side.

"This is the master's order!"

The contract serves as a constraint to urge them to implement Chen Xuan's orders.

Beria angrily stuffed the can into his mouth and ignored him.

Yucca nodded slightly, and then ate the canned food.

Compared with the Goldfinger version of the contract, the slave merchant version is still somewhat imperfect after all.

You must know that Rebecca didn't even dare to have disrespectful thoughts at the beginning.

It was about to enter a false night in Naroa. Chen Xuan was going to practice the magic element and spiritual power meditation methods separately before returning to Blue Star to plan the next step and pick up the express delivery.

If you act quickly, you can return before dawn on the next Naraya day.

Ophelia's task still needs time to operate.

Whether it is the status of the burrow investigation commission or the order of the self-built caravan and blacksmith association, preliminary feedback results will be obtained after the next Naroa day.

After explaining, he walked into the house and went straight to the second floor.

Sitting cross-legged on the soft cushion, Chen Xuan took out three [Elementary Demon Seeds] and placed them beside him in a triangular position.

In this way, the demon seed can stir up surging magic power.

After he was ready, he closed his eyes and started practicing!

As usual, it’s still the process of magic first and then meditation!

…

Six water hours later, he suddenly opened his eyes.

Completed a round of: magic element training-mental exhaustion-meditation training-spiritual recovery process.

Originally, his black iron level magic element filling was only less than 20% away from the peak.

With the intensive training of the demon species, he successfully broke through the black iron level this time and became a bronze level adventurer.

However, the progress of spiritual meditation is still a little short of advanced.

The magic element in the body is now gradually transforming into pure white.

As long as you continue to practice, you will soon become pure white. This is a qualitative change.

Then the pure white magic element will be re-compressed and return to the process of quantitative change and accumulation.

His body and head were feeling slightly hot, and his stomach kept moaning.

The heart rate increases and beats wildly.

He is still sweating and needs to drink a lot of water.

After I stood up, I felt light all over!

According to the description in the "Cultivation Method" booklet, this is the adaptation period after advancement.

It will take about three water hours to return to normal, by which time Chen Xuan's physical and mental strength will be significantly improved.

There was also a short adaptation period when Rebecca advanced.

Taking a deep breath, he looked out the window and took out his phone to take a look.

It was a moonlit night, and there were no more than four water clock hours before the arrival of the next Naraya Day.

The weather looks a little bad tonight, with clouds covering the moon.

Enduring the discomfort during the adaptation period, Chen Xuan began to check the harvest from "One-Eyed Cow" Henry.

The first is the guy's wallet. After counting, there are 85,172 kronor!

In order to auction the slaves, he borrowed money from all the team members. After the auction, he followed Chen Xuan in a hurry and did not have time to return it.

Now it’s all cheaper for Mr. Chen!

In other words, Master Henry paid for Chen Xuan’s consumption at the auction house!

As for the shriveled money bags found on those team members, they only amounted to less than a hundred crowns.

In terms of weapons, the first is the two second-level rune longbows, which are seriously worn. I guess Miss Ophelia will definitely look down on them.

Her straight hardwood bow looks simple on the surface, but in fact the bow arms are painted with complex carvings.

So her arrows were hard and accurate.

The second is Henry's own magic sledgehammer.

It comes with the elemental strike effect of two layers of ice and fire, and its length and weight are amazing.

The carvings on the hammer handle are equally complex, with two magic gems, one blue and one red, embedded in the middle, which are inciting the corresponding elemental magic power at an extremely slow rate.

If you want to activate the power of the magic sledgehammer, you must input your own magic element.

Chen Xuan, who was in the adaptation period, had difficulty mobilizing the magic elements to leave the body. After all, the magic elements in his body were currently in a state of transformation.

"It seems we can only wait until the adaptation period is over before testing."

The last thing is Henry's storage bag and the ball-shaped object he took out before he died.

Chen Xuan first opened the storage bag, which contained various auxiliary medicines, all of which were first- and second-level.

There are also several magic scrolls that are not of high levels.

It seemed like that guy probably spent all his money on life-saving magic jewelry.

Unfortunately, during the battle, the jewelry that releases defensive magic overloaded and burst.

Chen Xuan wears a magic necklace called [Blue Guardian] on his chest. He once blocked a bullet for it in KK Park. After the trip to Myanmar, a tiny crack appeared on the necklace.

Sighing secretly, he focused his eyes on the ball.

Chen Xuan directly activated [Insight] without the need for anyone to introduce him.

The golden subtitles appeared, and he quickly understood the purpose of this thing.

[A third-level thunderstorm bead, which is tempered and condensed with a large amount of thunder element magic. Enter the magic element and throw it out to release it, forming a small-scale thunderstorm strike]

…

"Tsk, isn't this a magic grenade?"

"And it's the thunder version!"

In Magatan City, most of the magic items that can be bought by trading houses are of the second level.

The third level is not non-existent but rather rare in number, especially the attack type.

The only third-level goods that can be bought with magic scrolls are various auxiliary and healing ones.

Giant cities and large monster battlefields everywhere basically have a monopoly on offensive high-level magic items.

Therefore, this [Level 3 Thunderstorm Bead] is relatively valuable.

After counting the loot, Chen Xuan didn't waste any time and directly activated [Crossover] and disappeared.

…

"Boom!"

Shortly after Chen Xuan left, rolling thunder resounded in the sky.

Yellow arcs of lightning appear above the clouds like veins composed of thunder and lightning.

A heavy rain is approaching, and Magatan City seems to be pressed down by a huge mountain, and even the air becomes extremely depressing.

"Crash la la la..."

The heavy rain is pouring down!

Bead-sized raindrops fell on the ground.

The streets have become a lot lonelier under the wash of rain, and the stench that usually permeates the streets quickly fades away until it completely disappears.

The houses in the city were lit by candlelight, and the taverns were still noisy.

On such a rainy night, inside the Akso Manor located on the first level of the city.

Ansetus Axl was sitting in his study, with an empty wine bottle placed in front of the table.

He looked confused, sometimes looking at the heavy rain outside the floor-to-ceiling window, sometimes staring at the book at hand.

He spent the entire Naraya day in his study.

"Usula..."

"O...Phelia..."

"What...are you doing?"

Ansetus, who was originally shrewd and wise, now looked very confused.

He murmured to himself, loosened his clenched right hand, and revealed a small but long raven letter.

Then he placed the letter on the oil lampstand with a blank look and lit it until it burned to ashes in his hands.

…

At the same time, it was still the first circle.

The Magtan City Library has long been closed, and the huge dome building is divided into countless partitions and a large number of rooms.

On a rainy night, only the deepest book room has light.

A black iron candlestick was placed on the table, and three tallow candles illuminated the room dimly.

There is a thick cashmere blanket spread in the middle of several rows of bookcases.

Two figures were entangled fiercely on the blanket.

After the movement paused for a moment, a middle-aged man apologized.

"Sorry, honey!"

"We haven't been intimate for more than half of the Naroa month!"

"So I couldn't help but drink some alchemy potion tonight, you know the one..."

The woman "hummed" and pushed him away.

"take a break."

At this time, the male voice sounded again.

"Have you really decided?"

"Aren't you afraid of something happening?"

There was hesitation in his tone.

Unexpectedly, these two questions directly angered the woman.

"You should die in the servant's toilet room!"

"Harward is your seed!"

"Now that your son is dead, you still ask me if I'm afraid something will happen!"

"Hell, keep it down!"

The man named Bezos covered her mouth.

Then there was the sound of a woman sobbing.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

"If you hadn't followed the family's arrangement and married a young lady from the Finley family, and got Magatan City as a dowry, why would I have to marry Ansetus!"

"That guy who lacks interest and only cares about his dead elf female cousin!"

"Now, the son you had with me is dead!"

"And you, as his father and a high-ranking figure in the city, are indifferent?"

"You know better than me why Moir Greenleaf came here!"

"I can't bear it anymore!"

By the end, the woman's slightly hoarse voice almost turned into a roar.

The hysteria was followed by a long silence.

Finally, when the grease candle burned a little and the candle tears flowed and solidified on the table.

The man's voice appeared again.

"I promise you, but give me a few more days."

"Preparing, cleaning up, cleaning up the borers..."

"After all, that is Colchicum, the largest business group in the city!"

…

This piece contains a lot of foreshadowing, including the protagonist’s next target as an indentured slave.

PS: If nothing else, the next chapter will be tomorrow afternoon.
