Azur Lane: I Crossed the Graduation Port Area

Chapter 1394 My familiar is Manchu

After the rain stopped and the sky cleared, there were no unexpected situations when Lin Lan and the ship girls entered the Flash Stone City.

Perhaps it was because the massive attack by the amphibious fishmen had left Shimmering Stone City in shock.

When the magic motorcycle arrived at the city gate, Xiafei showed the badge of the Inquisition to the defenders, and the heavy city gate was immediately lifted to allow them to enter the town.

Although the roads in this teaching country town are still muddy, overall, the environment in this town is much better than Lin Lan had imagined.

With the historical stereotype of Blue Star, he always thought that the medieval fantasy towns in the Teaching Country would be very dirty, messy and untidy.

But in fact, even in the remote Shimmering Stone City, the townspeople on the streets are still well-organized, and the buildings are not as dirty and messy as imagined.

Even though there is still a big gap compared to the ancient city of Natlan which is cleaned up by government officials, there are no bad pictures or smells that make people uncomfortable, and it is still good overall.

After entering the Shimmering Stone City, Lin Lan and the girls walked out of the magic motorcycle.

Marco Polo then put this extremely eye-catching magical creation into the ship's storage space.

Although their National Academy uniforms attracted the curiosity of many local townspeople at the city gate, due to the chaos caused by the siege launched by the fishmen, the townspeople of Sheaming Stone soon went about their own business.

"Welcome to the Grand Inquisitor and all the young and promising new stars of the academy who have come from afar. Thank you, Holy Light. Did you push back the amphibious fishmen army just now?"

While Lin Lan was looking at the town, a team of guards wearing enchanted armor walked down from the city wall.

The first person to greet them was a middle-aged man in his fifties, wearing a gray cloak and holding a staff.

Lin Lan glanced at the people and said calmly:

"Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask. Who among you has a detailed map of Shimmering Stone City?"

"I understand, sir. This is a detailed map of all the shops and association branches in the town. Please accept it."

This wizard is obviously a wily old man, and should be a manager with great say in Shimmering Stone City.

From his simple words, he immediately guessed that they were the Inquisition disguised as a National Academy, coming here to carry out some secret mission.

The amphibious fishmen who had just attacked the city like a tide suddenly knelt down strangely, showed strange phenomena, and then retreated, which was definitely related to their arrival.

So, without any hesitation, he immediately smiled respectfully, took out a parchment map from the magic storage ring, and handed it to him with both hands.

"My Lords, I am Mailock, the guardian of Shimmerstone City. Is there anything I can do to repay you for your help?"

Seeing him casually handing the parchment scroll to Xiafei, the wizard who called himself Mailock asked him respectfully again.

"No need, just hurry up and take people to repair the buildings in the city. We have our own plans."

Lin Lan spoke in a much slower tone, causing Mailock to nod, and then handed him a light blue crystal fragment:
"Sir, this is my magic message fragment. If you have any questions in the city, you can contact me with this."

Seeing that he had accepted the fragment, Malok did not stop and led more than a dozen town guards back to the city wall.

"Okay, let's go into the city... Let's go to the tavern here first and choose a place to stay tonight."

After dealing with these trivial matters, Lin Lan led the girls along the main road into the interior of the Flash Stone City.

The bright sunshine shone on the town and it was almost noon.

As they gradually walked to the center of the town, the decoration style of the surrounding buildings gradually became more luxurious, and the streets became more and more lively. The city of Shimmering Stone was divided into two urban areas by a turbulent river, connected by several stone arch bridges.

There are magic lights on both sides of the streets in the city, but they are turned off during the day.

When they passed by fruit stalls and vegetable stores, Andrea also took the barbarians to buy some goods along the way to prepare for the subsequent journey.

"That's not right, Xiafei, why don't you teach the people to be curious when they see the barbarians?

"And Lucival and the others were the same. They must have seen Manju for the first time, but they didn't feel weird at all."

While waiting for Andrea to ask the barbarians to move the stock out of the store, Lin Lan discovered something strange and inconsistent.

In addition to humans, there are also many legal aliens dressed as mercenaries on the streets of Sheath City.

While Marco Polo was taking Northwest Wind, Southwest Wind and four foreign girls to the prop store next door to make some purchases, he asked Xiafei who was waiting beside him in great confusion.

"Commander, you may not know that in the Teaching Nation, many mages of the School of Spellcasting will use shapeshifting magic scrolls to transform their contracted beasts into the appearance they desire and carry them with them.

"These contracted monsters can also be called familiars. Some of the familiars look too hideous and disgusting, so using the Transfiguration School's Shapeshifting Magic Scroll to cover up their ugliness has become the mainstream choice."

After Xiafei finished explaining the science to him, Mogador also yawned and smiled at him in a lazy tone as if he was extremely bored:
"After learning this, our barbarians even learned to act pretentiously, often taking the initiative to scare and teach Chinese people pranks."

The explanation of the two Iris girls made Lin Lan look at Manjiu who was carrying vegetables from the cellar of the vegetable store.

Sure enough, these chubby little birds would deliberately make cute strange "chirp" sounds when passing by the vegetable store owner, making the poor old lady who owns the vegetable store tremble with fear.

Even when they were settling the final bill with Andrea, they didn't dare to raise the price at all, for fear that if they were discovered, they would turn Manju into a monster and take revenge.

This interesting scene made Lin Lan couldn't help laughing.

Out of kindness, he asked Andrea to pay a little more Magic Source Crystal to the old lady who owned the vegetable shop, as compensation for the mental damage caused by the barbarians' prank.

"Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir!"

After receiving the unexpected Magic Source Crystal, the old lady immediately thanked him repeatedly.

But just as he smiled and waved his hand, seeing Andrea put away several baskets of vegetables and preparing to take the two Iris girls, Dragoon, Andrea and Helophont to the prop shop next door for a visit.

The shop owner suddenly seemed to remember something and said to him hurriedly:

"Sir, this is probably your first time in Shimmerstone City for you and the ladies, right?"

Seeing him nod, the old lady saw that there was no one else around, so she approached him and kindly whispered a reminder:

"Just now I saw that you, my master, brought a few little girls from other races with you. Don't blame me for being nosy. You'd better leave this small town as soon as possible.

“The market on the other side of the river is the lair of slave traders. Those guys are really not good people. They often secretly sell foreign slaves on the black market in the middle of the night.

"My old man heard from a mercenary while drinking in the tavern that the slave traders had dealings with the heretics wanted by the church. You must keep a close eye on the children while you are in the city."

Hearing this, Lin Lan smiled and said to the old lady:

"Thank you for your reminder. I will keep it in mind."
