I Am A Priest In The Otherworld
Chapter 221: . Let you see the real soul
Gallo was not heartbeat, but also a little impatient.
What he wanted to buy was obviously not this kind of magic puppet.
The "soul" that the store keeps talking about is also very nonsense to him.
These magic puppets are just good-looking, they look more like humans. They can't weave grass knots, can't knit sweaters, can't cook, and can't beat enemies into small cakes with one punch.
Compared with their own little donkey, the gap between these magic dolls is too big!
However, there was something in this store that caught Gallo's attention.
It is a pile of books on the shelf.
They are also technical books such as "Magic Puppet Basic Theory", "Magic Puppet Care and Maintenance", and "Magic Puppet Manipulation Guide".
In this era, people's thoughts and concepts are not so open, and technical books are not so easy to buy, just like priests and wizards don't put books on divine arts and magic on the shelves.
The magic puppet was originally a relatively unpopular subject, and the knowledge related to it was naturally very rare.
So Gallo pointed to the books and asked:
"Are these books sold?"
The young shopkeeper was taken aback for a moment, then said rather embarrassingly:
"Strictly speaking, these books are not put on sale... they are gifts, equivalent to the instructions of the magic puppet.
"Then I just want to buy these books, can I?"
Gallo asked again.
The young man showed a look of embarrassment, hesitatingly said:
"Guest, this is not compliant..."
He followed up and asked:
"Guest, you don't want to learn how to make magic puppets yourself through these books, do you?"
"Excuse me, it's impossible. The magic puppet is a very profound and complicated subject. What can be recorded in the book is only rare. Your thoughts may be a bit whimsical..."
Gallo waved his hand quickly and explained:
"No, no, I just plan to study the magic puppet."
Of course he also agrees that magic puppets are a complicated subject, and he does not hope that he can learn anything through reading.
All his purpose is to study some of these principles and apply them to his enchantment. He has never thought about being a puppet by himself. There is no need for it, Amia is enough.
After hearing what Gallo said, the young shopkeeper seemed to choose to believe it, and then said with emotion:
"Are you actually planning to study? Are you a mage?"
For unpopular subjects like magic puppets, apart from the magic puppet master who makes the magic puppet, generally only the mages are interested in it.
But he looked at Gallo’s robes again, obviously dressed as a priest...
How could a priest, a crowd with rigid thinking, be interested in magic puppets? Shouldn't they be very resistant to the magic puppet?
A considerable number of sects believe that the magic puppet is unclean and evil, and even thinks it is some kind of blasphemous folly, and quite resists it.
Although big sects like Shenguangjiao don't have such a statement, they are somewhat affected by it and don't feel too cold about the demon puppet.
So the shop owner subconsciously thought that Gallo was a mage, but looking at his dress and temperament, he was more like a priest?
And Gallo's face at this time was already very ugly, and he was extremely upset, and even wanted to punch someone.
You actually said that I am a mage?
Do you know that besides cultists, the one I hate most is the mage?
Believe it or not, I let you be reborn as a mage?
If it weren't for those books that are really hard to find, Gallo must have yelled and slammed the door.
In the end, he forcibly held back his anger and asked again:
"Do you sell these books?"
The shopkeeper also noticed the change in Gallo's expression, and was also murmured in his heart, where did he provoke this stuff?
But he didn't intend to give in, and continued to stick to his principles:
"I'm sorry, guest, these books are really just gifts."
"If you really want to, you can consider buying a beautiful lady..."
Gallo took a deep breath and asked:
"How much is your cheapest magic puppet here?"
After buying relevant theoretical books, he also needs a magic puppet for experimentation. Can't he take Amia for surgery?
In fact, the main purpose of his trip was to buy magic puppets, but after seeing those books, he turned the cart before the horse.
As for the magic puppets in this shop, you can tell from the outside. They are indeed very delicate. Even if they are not at all on the inside, the price is definitely not cheap.
When Gallo was still on earth, he had heard of some stories about eating dirt every month in order to buy beautiful dolls.
The young shopkeeper was relieved to see that Gallo didn't plan to come on, and quickly introduced:
"The girls in this shop are all the same good and the same loyal, so the price difference is not big, they are basically around one thousand gold..."
The price made Gallo's eyes wide.
A doll sells for 1,000 gold?
Do you know how much my head is worth?
It's only 2000 gold...
1000 gold, I don't know how many living people can be bought!
This price is ridiculous!
Gallo really felt so angry and funny in his heart, even if he had the mental preparation of the other lion to open his mouth, he didn't expect to be so exaggerated and so excessive!
He didn't know what kind of talent could afford such extravagant toys.
Not to mention the poor, lower-middle peasants like Old John, just say that he himself, as the technical backbone of the weapon shop, holds several times the salary of his peers, only 50 gold a month.
And this income is already higher than 80% of the residents of the City of Innocence.
It is no wonder that this store will be opened in such a remote corner, because it is sold to ordinary people.
Even if Gallo is still rich now, he would not spend such a large sum of money on a test product.
Unless he can figure out a way to put the price of this magic puppet into the cost budget and let Mrs. Carola pay the bill.
But this is obviously immoral, and he cannot do this.
The young shopkeeper observed Gallo's reaction, and probably guessed what he was thinking.
But he didn't have much, he didn't ridicule, mocking Gallo's poverty and stinginess.
In fact, most people who come to the store will show almost the same expression after hearing the price.
Some will repeatedly bargain with him, try to be cheaper, and even pester him for a long time.
Some will in turn yell and slam the door and leave.
Like Gallo, it's not bad.
However, in the eyes of the shopkeeper, his magic puppet must maintain such a painful high price.
In this way, buyers will cherish them, and will not treat them as simple tools for venting their desires, throw them away at random, or abuse them with violence.
He bought a magic puppet girl with a soul, not the shoddy tools outside!
So he patiently explained to Gallo, saying that these magic puppets are well-made and the production cycle is extremely long, and he devoted his own efforts...
However, what he emphasized most was the ridiculous ‘soul theory’. He insisted that his magic puppet had a soul, so he could sell it at this price.
Gallo certainly wouldn't believe these nonsense.
He even had the urge to kill and overwhelm.
But the shop owner succeeded in persuading Misseran...
"Gallo, I think he makes sense. These magic puppets are really exquisite, and they are indeed worth the money..."
Misseran gently tugged Gallo's sleeve, whispered in his ear.
Gallo was very speechless...
You prodigal girl, why are you so cheating?
And the shopkeeper hit the iron while it was hot and continued:
"Guest, please believe me, you are not buying a pure girl with this huge sum of money..."
"What you choose is a kind of taste, a kind of life attitude, a kind of real nobility and elegance!"
"What you bought is a real soul, a beautiful soul, and a loyal soul!"
Gallo really couldn't bear it. He grabbed his collar and asked:
"You take a soul, but do you know what the real soul is?"
"Come on, I will show you what a real magic puppet is!"
Gallo said in a loud voice, and directly mentioned this guy, and forced him into the carriage.
The young shopkeeper was suddenly terrified.
He thought this young man was good-for-nothing, he didn't have so much nonsense, but he didn't expect that the other person would come directly to be hard...
"Let go of me! You are kidnapping!"
Gallo didn't bother to tie him up, and he didn't bother to shut this guy's mouth.
He just remembered what it was like to be a Skullcrusher, and then glared at the guy.
The young shopkeeper was silent for a moment, unable to say a single character.
He felt a sharp, substantive killing intent on Gallo.
That is the real killing intent that has been tempered from the sea of blood in the dead mountain...
He had seen this kind of temperament in the guards around his father, and he had seen how clean they were in killing.
He didn't hesitate to believe that this guest can crush himself into powder if he thinks and only needs a thought...
If you dare to resist, you will definitely die, and you will die miserably...
This guy, isn't it the kind of perverted murderous demon that makes living people a magic puppet?
An idea came to the young shopkeeper's mind.
I'm dead now...
I knew I would not run away from home...
He was thinking all kinds of madness in his mind until the carriage stopped, was screwed out by Gallo, and threw it in front of a **** mule.
Is this a perverted hobby again?
This murderer is going to kill me to feed the mule?
Gallo didn't speak, but waved his hand to remove the disguise magic on Amia, letting it reveal its original appearance.
She is tall and strong, but in a very funny blue and white color scheme, with a funny white apron around her waist.
"RX-78-GP03D?"
The young man recognized Amia's model at a glance, showing that he did have a deep understanding of the magic puppet.
"But isn't this the highest-end military model? Known as the strongest war weapon, it has the title of'Black Death'..."
"But it... why... why is it knitting a sweater?"
