A strange world

Chapter 1396 Chapter 30. Leaving the Mountain

Ding-ling-ding-ling-ding-ling-

The wind chimes hanging behind the door swayed as the figure came in.

The wizard apprentice behind the counter greeted him enthusiastically: "Welcome, Master Wizard, what can I do for you?"

"I have some dragon dung to sell," said the girl in the blue dress.

"Okay, please follow me."

The apprentice wizard led the girl in the blue skirt into the appraisal room. The girl in the blue skirt looked around and said, "Too small."

The mage apprentice and the appraiser were both stunned.

"Master Mage, what do you mean is too small?"

"The house is too small."

They had no choice but to move to a larger warehouse. The girl in the blue skirt waved her hand, and a mountain of dragon dung appeared in the open space.

"Hmm, fresh dragon dung..." The appraiser took a deep breath and said to himself happily, "Excellent raw material for refining beast repellent potion. It seems to be a five-colored dragon? It will be more valuable... Such a large amount is at least a dragon's monthly supply... Hmm, the dung is hard, but not like stone. It seems that its diet is mainly meat."

He didn't notice that the expression of the girl in the blue skirt behind him was becoming increasingly cold.

"Dragon dung is completely digested, without bones or animal fur. Maybe there is a special chef to cook it. The only one in Liberty City who has such treatment is—"

"Just tell me how much it costs in total." The girl in the blue skirt interrupted the appraiser's speculation.

The appraiser was delighted to see the prey, and assured with a pat on his chest: "We have to weigh it first, and then pay according to the quality. Don't worry, the Lycomdo chain of magic stores has a deep cooperation with Lord Annan Reeves, and we will never shortchange you on weight."

Even the dragon hunting team couldn't get so much fresh dragon dung at once. The idle employees of the Lycomde chain of magic stores rushed over, weighed, checked, and packed the goods in front of the girl in the blue skirt, while loudly praising the quality of the goods.

Watching a bunch of people playing with their own feces was really unbearable for Long. The girl in the blue skirt endured it for more than ten minutes before they finished counting.

The appraiser asked tentatively, "There are 532 pounds of dragon dung in total. The current market price is 50 silver coins per pound. The dragon dung you brought is of better quality. How about we give it to you for 60 silver coins?"

"Can."

"The total is 320 Kinnars. Do you think we should go to the bank to trade it to you, or pay in cash?"

"cash."

"Okay, please follow me."

The appraiser led the girl in the blue skirt back to the appraisal room, and soon, the employees of the magic shop brought in a box of gold coins.

"Please count them."

"No."

The girl in the blue dress just glanced at the treasure chest, put it away, and walked out.

The appraiser winked at the wizard apprentice, who followed him and handed over his business card: "Master Wizard, if you have dragon dung or anything else you need to sell in the future, you can come to the Lycamdo chain of magic shops. Our Lycamdo shops are all over the western part of Middle-earth—"

"Ms. Elimoyas, Miss Elimoyas!"

As soon as he walked out the door, the mage apprentice's voice was interrupted by a shout.

In the distance, several guards were running towards us, shouting something.

The girl in the blue skirt lowered her head and walked away quickly. The guards chased after her in front of the surprised mage apprentice.

"Ms. Ilimoyas, please don't run. Lord Annan is looking for you—"

Elimoas?

The mage apprentice felt vaguely that the name sounded familiar...

At the corner of the street, Losi and his deputy, who were sent by Annan to find Elimoyas, looked at each other.

"What's going on? Why did Miss Blue Dragon see us walking faster?"

"Didn't you hear it?"

"have no idea……"

"Let's catch up."

They followed the girl who looked like Elimoas all the way to the "rich area" - unlike the outside world, the rich area in Liberty City was just a more secluded street with single-family houses.

Here is a more vivid description: the residence of Annan’s friends.

For example, Aunt Susan's family, Teacher Victor, Lady Wine, and Lady Winter all live in this area.

Compared to commercial streets or other places full of pedestrians, it is much quieter here and there are not many people on the streets.

The clattering sound of Losey and his deputy's armor as they ran was extremely clear in the silent street.

In the front yard of one of the rows of houses, a tall and beautiful lady was watering the flowers and plants in the garden.

The sound of armor clashing made her look up at the two people running by, Luo Xi.

They didn't dare to act rashly in front of the noble lady, so they all stood still and said respectfully, "Madam Winter..."

"Do you have any urgent business?" Lady Winter asked gently.

"Um...Excuse me, have you seen Elimoyas?"

"Ilimoyas?"

"It's just a girl wearing a blue jewel dress..."

Lady Winter interrupted Luo Xi's description: "Of course I know her. What do you want from her?"

Luo Xi explained: "It wasn't me, it was Lord Annan who came to find him. It was said to be related to the Lake of Ten Thousand Lakes."

"The Lake of Ten Thousand Lakes..."

Lady Winter stood up straight, making her look even taller with the blood of northern giants.

"Miss Blue Dragon." She tilted her head and spoke to the "person" hiding in the house.

Luo Xi saw Elimoyas walking out from behind the door with a frosty look on her face that seemed to keep people at a distance.

"I'm not going anywhere."

Luo Xi and his deputy looked at each other and were about to speak when Lady Winter placed the shower head on the table beside them.

"Can you tell me what's going on?"

…

"Didn't I tell you to go find Ilimoyas? Why did you invite Lady Winter here?"

When Annan saw Lady Winter walking in from the door with her head down, he stood up from the sofa quickly, like a student seeing his teacher.

"I asked them to bring me here. Long time no see."

"It's not been too long actually. We just got together before I went to Broken Mountains." Annan looked at Ilimayas who was following behind with an inquiring look, curious about how the two of them got together.

"Loshi told me your plan. You want Ilimayas to go to the Lake of Ten Thousand Lakes?"

"Well, the Lake of Ten Thousand Lakes is next to the Broken Mountains. I think if we let Ilimayas go there, the blue dragons won't be able to help."

Annan’s idea was that since Liberty City lacked high-end combat power, he would let the blue dragon tribe help.

"But have you ever thought that the Lake of Ten Thousand Lakes is a place of human civil war, and if you lead the aliens there, the situation may get out of control."

Annan was stunned. He had indeed overlooked this point.

"What do you think we should do?"

"I'll go."

"you?"

"I will be better at dealing with them than your blue dragon, whether it is a soft approach or a hard one."

I almost forgot that Lady Winter was an outstanding lord and politician. She used the Winter Territory to block the ratmen from moving south for a whole winter.

The only thing Annan needs to worry about is that Lady Winter accidentally fails to control her desires and turns the commercial street into a commercial city.

Hmm...it seems that's not impossible?
