Alien world

Chapter 170 24. New Year's Gift
In the deep winter, Pinglin Town is peaceful and peaceful.

The procession that entered the town in the evening alarmed those in power. The mayor, whom Annan once envied at the dinner party, could not remember his name now, and respectfully and uneasyly explained that Paalha's accusation had nothing to do with him.

"Who is Paalha?"

"It's the young man who falsely accused you..."

Annan recalled his experience in the dungeon. He didn't care about it after he came out. He thought that the fate of "Palha" and Black Tieres would not be very good...

Memories are like a broken embankment, and it is difficult to get back as the gap emerges.Annan was even only five or six months ago.

At that time, I was still racking my brains for the qualification test of dozens of silver coins and saving Tasia, but now...

"Master Annan...Master Annan?"

Annan woke up from the memory, shook his head and said, "I didn't take it to heart...don't worry about me, I just want to visit Mr. Victor."

"of course."

The mayor envied the lucky old Victor—there were [-] of the "Top [-] Master Apprentices in the Kingdom of Rikaner", and they were only mage apprentices, but there were only twelve Kings of the North, and they had a high status.But he still remembered the complicated situation in Breeze City a few days ago.

Doing nothing means making no mistakes.

Night had fallen, but it was only five o'clock.When Annan came to the library, Mr. Victor was slowly tidying up the bookshelves.

"Visitor registration."

The old man drooped his old face. Annan didn't know who provoked him. When he was lying on the desk to register, he suddenly remembered the key: "Mr. Victor, this is something I invented in Breeze City. It's called magic image..."

Annan spoke while activating the magic image. After the familiar blue planet and the logo of the new world, beautiful and sad music sounded——

"Shh-!"

Mr. Victor motioned for silence, and Annan quickly turned off the magic image.

The number of magic stones is reduced by one.

But Victor's face softened a lot.

"Master Annan, we may have to stay in the town for one night." At this moment, Bloom reminded Annan in a low voice that a blizzard was coming.

As if it was an illusion, the stubborn old man's face looked better.

"I'll still come."

Taking over from the slow-moving old man, Annan skillfully cleaned the bookshelves and the floor, checked the windows, and helped Mr. Victor to the street.

The bells of the approaching blizzard echoed over the small town, and few pedestrians hurried home.

Back at Victor's residence, Annan let the knights live around, and he, Blom, and Dina stayed at Mr. Victor's house—by the way, he persuaded him to move to Xingyue Bay.

Asking Dina to help make a dinner, Mr. Victor left the kitchen without eating much, put on pajamas with patterns of clouds and rabbits and went into the living room, and the lines of "The Fall of the Mage Tower" came soon after.

Annan finished his dinner, left the packing to Dina, and came to the living room.

The branches outside the window swayed ferociously, the passing wind and snow almost pulled into a straight line, the uninterrupted whimpering and the fire in the fireplace formed a strange tranquility.

Mr. Victor leaned on the sofa with his eyes closed.Annan thought he was asleep, so he quietly went to turn off the magic image.

"I'm not sleeping, I'm listening."

Mr. Victor opened his eyes.

The number of magic stones is reduced by one.

Annan had no choice but to open the Philosopher's Stone again, and sat down on the sofa: "Mr. Victor, do you want to go to Xingyue Bay with me?"

Victor stared at the magic image, as if the spinning blue ball was more interesting than Annan's words.

"You could have a real library in there."

Victor remained unmoved.

Annan sighed helplessly, opened the portal and let the ogre push the wheelchair out.

The unique wheelchair finally made the stubborn old man take his attention away from the magic image: "What is this?"

"A New Year's gift for you."

"Gift?"

People here really don't have the habit of celebrating the New Year. I wonder if there is one in the south?

Annan introduced the wheelchair to Mr. Victor. Compared with the one prepared for the eldest sister, the second wheelchair has been slightly adjusted, such as larger and softer wheels, so that the wheelchair is still suitable for moving on the bluestone road.

"Why didn't you invite me first?" Mr. Victor asked.

"That would be threatening you to go to Xingyue Bay."

The old man remained silent for a while, and impatiently drove Annan away: "Go and pack your luggage!"

"Are you going to Xingyue Bay?" Annan's surprise met the old man's gaze, and he changed his words: "I mean, do you want books to edify Xingyue Bay's wasteland without knowledge?"

"Humph!"

……

It is very difficult for Annan to need Mr. Victor's help now.

But just as Annan didn't need to give the Reeves family three thousand gold coins but still did it, emotions linked them together——

And when Mr. Victor moves to Xingyue Bay, Lindy will follow.Lindy has gone, and the wine lady will follow!
In the early morning of the next day, Annan first coaxed Mr. Victor to Breeze City, and then went to the library with the key.

"Tina, do you think Olmedo would be happy to pretend to be Augusta?"

"Master Annan, if you have a grudge against Master Olmer, you can directly hire an assassin to assassinate him."

"But I don't know what Olmedo likes..."

Annan decided to ask her directly, opened the portal, let the workers carry the books, and let the ogre call Olmedo.

After the tall figure with blond hair appeared, Annan asked directly, "What do you like?"

"what?"

"If you received a gift, what would you think would make you happy?"

Olmedo's blue eyes gradually softened: "A port belonging to the north."

"...Is there a team going to the snow mountain recently?" Annan decisively changed the subject.

"There just happens to be a convoy tomorrow."

"Help me deliver something to my friends in the fortress."

What does Tasia like, hay?milk?Annan thought for a while and said, "Give me some books."

There was no need for Olmedo anymore, Annan drove her away.The knights and workers quickly emptied the hall, and then emptied the "forbidden books" in the basement under the command of Mr. Victor.

Leaving the library, the team drove out of Pinglin Town, and Annan began to think about other people's New Year's gifts:

The ogre's gift... bring it a condemned prisoner?The orcs just send a pair of armor that fits casually; Katarina... Will the skull be considered a shame and blasphemy?Klein, a refined steel weapon should satisfy him.Martin, Martin... um... keep Fast from beating him on New Year's Day; Aunt Susan and Uncle Hollin... better clothes and a sharper ax this time.

Bronze Beard gave her the blacksmith shop in Xingyue Bay; Mr. Fast is the tavern; if Andrew Luna is willing to open a branch of the Morrowind Tavern, Mr. Fast will have a rival; Michael has everything , then wish him an early promotion to the elite, Evelyn, a beautiful dress can make her happy for a long time.

And Della, the incident in Breeze City is over, there are no more ratmen here, and the weather is getting colder and colder, so she can be rescued from the harsh winter;

Is anyone else left out?
Oh, and blue dragons.
