Alien world

Chapter 151 5. The Last Gathering
In the orange dusk, Annan woke up slowly.

The figure sitting behind the desk raised his eyes, his long blond hair was dyed orange: "Do you want to sleep a little longer?"

"How long have I been asleep...?"

Annan looked at the shattered clouds outside the window, his still-awake head couldn't tell whether it was morning or dusk.

"Not yet three hours."

Annan followed Olmedo's signal and looked at the clock in the corner, "I'm about to report the Ratman attack to the capital, and I took the initiative to ask for gold coins for you for the reward part."

Annan, who was lazily leaning on the sofa, lost his sleepiness: "How much?"

"It should be a box of gold coins."

About one thousand gold coins.But Annan thought of something vigilantly: "Are gold coins the most valuable currency?"

"What do you mean?"

"It's the relationship between copper coins, silver coins, and gold coins. Will there be crystal coins, gem coins or other currencies with higher value?"

Annan didn't want his hard-earned money to turn into a pile of cheap metal...

"No. Kinnar is the most valuable currency, certified by the Goddess of Wealth." Olmedo watched Annan lift the blanket, "You can rest for another two hours."

"I'm going to see Martin...how is he?"

The young city lord sighed infrequently: "I haven't seen him for a while, and the servant said it's still the same."

That's Martin's strength, never getting into trouble.

"I'm going to bring him back."

"That's good."

Entrusting Olmedo to first recruit [-] refugees, Annan bid farewell to Olmedo who continued to be busy with official duties, walked outside, and when he was about to leave the city lord's mansion, he met Michael who came to look for him, and also met an enthusiastic fan ——He told himself that he watched "The Fall of the Mage Tower" during the day, and listened to the choir singing "My Heart Will Go On Eternally" at night, and counted the number of steps from the hall of the Mage Tower to the second floor, how many freckles Ruth had on her cheeks, and the size of Jack's clothes— —

Michael testified for him: the rich man's son bought five Philosopher's Stones, which means that he has watched "The Fall of the Mage Tower" more than [-] times in the week since it was released.

Annan thought he wanted to sign autographs or be close to himself, but the son of a rich man said he didn't want those, because familiarity would make the beauty disappear, and he just didn't want to buy the Philosopher's Stone every day.

"But an Eternal Philosopher's Stone costs 1000 gold coins..."

"no problem!"

Before Annan had time to say the price, he hastily agreed.There is no way to increase the price, so I have to give back to the loyal audience that the Philosopher's Stone will be delivered tomorrow.

Michael felt that this was simply a money grab.

steal money?Grabbing money is not as fast as shooting magic images.

Then Annan and Michael went to Martin's residence.

"Cousin, why are you here?"

Standing in front of him was a circle of fatter Martin than when we saw each other last time.

"I'll take you back."

"Not yet!" Martin said mysteriously in a low voice, "I have collected evidence that Augusta colluded with the Ratmen..."

Annan was surprised that Martin could call Augusta, and he was surprised that he could find the evidence.

"Where is the evidence?"

"I heard people outside saying that Augusta colluded with the Ratmen..."

Annan and Michael looked at each other, and Annan had no choice but to tell Martin that Aunt Susan and Uncle Hollin were already on their way to Breeze City, and asked him to obediently follow them back.

"We took the jeweled sword and clothes away," said Annan and the butler who couldn't restrain his joy.

As the carriage drove out of the manor, Martin couldn't wait to shout: "I'm going to the tavern!"

"You can't drink yet."

"I think Martin means going to the Morrowind Tavern to show off," said Mycole.

Annan did not refuse, and it happened that he was coming back this time to visit these friends.

Arriving at the street outside the Morrowind Tavern, Annan and Michael put on wizard robes and hoods respectively.This kind of attire is not uncommon in taverns. After entering the tavern, not many people looked at them than Martin.

"Have you heard...the Ratmen are going to invade Breeze City..."

The sound of discussion floating in the corner caught Annan's attention.

"Is there still time for me to learn Ratman language?"

"One day the mage's tower is open, but the rat man cannot enter for one day..."

"It sounds like something is going to happen to the Mage Tower soon."

"Don't you know? The mage's tower has collapsed... People are everywhere on the street saying..."

Regardless of the two drunks, Annan and the others came to the second floor.

"The king of our world has returned from his territory? Thanks to you, the tavern business is getting better and better." Andrew Luna greeted Annan affectionately, and then looked at Martin, "Our good buddy is also back ? Oh you gained a lot of weight..."

Then Martin couldn't wait to boast about his spies in the Olmedo family, but he was eclipsed by Annan's achievements: "At that time, I personally killed five vicious ratmen."

Michael touched the callus next to his ear.

Because Annan would return to the territory soon, Andrew Luna proposed to hold a dinner party.

"Let's forget about the dinner...then let's have a party," Annan said.

Annan returned to the manor first, and Michael and Andrew Luna went to call the wine lady and Olmedo.

As night fell, everyone started a relaxing party in the hall of the manor.

Ogres, Orcs, and Soluman Bronzebeard were playing cards next to them, while Michael and Olmedo were talking about the benefits of "The Fall of the Mage Tower".

Francois said that in a few days it would exceed ten thousand ducats.One city has [-] gold coins, and several cities have tens of thousands of gold coins...

Michael said that he was too optimistic. In the past two days, there have been fake records of the Philosopher's Stone, sold to those who want to collect but can't afford the genuine Philosopher's Stone priced at 100 gold coins.

It's like a spinning susan.

Annan's spinning machine factory currently only produces about two or three hundred Susan spinning machines, but there are at least two or three thousand "Susan spinning machines" in the entire northern region and parts of the south.

Compared with the Susan spinning machine, the price of cotton has increased by five or six times, but it has brought more benefits.

In order to catch up with the piracy, Annan commissioned Ms. Wine to use the sales channels of the Winchet family to promote Breeze City, but it is difficult to reproduce the miracle of Breeze City.

Their conversation gradually changed from magical images to rat siege.It was a bit heavy at first, and then after Annan talked about the underground experience, the living room was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

"I haven't heard the story of Annan killing the Ratman for 2 minutes." Michael said teasingly.

"You asked me how many ratmen I killed? I can't remember clearly. Do you remember how many glasses of wine you drank?"

"I didn't ask you."

By the way, they mention the corpse in the dungeon - that of an elite spellcaster from 300 years ago.

In the middle of the night, Soluman Bronzebeard and the ogre had a fierce night of cards. Annan and Michael came to the Mage Tower away from the noisy mansion. Annan found the epic spellcaster and tactfully proposed that he needed an eternal magic stone thing,

Then, Annan asked the puppet following behind to put down the wooden box:
"Here is 500 gold coins, a thank you gift for you."
