Chapter 31 Tower of Star Torch

Seeing the thief rushing out of the aquatic product area, Rorschach watched him twist and turn, not only able to perform hurdles between stalls, but also have enough time to grab the eggs and throw them backward to disturb the people behind him.

"A waste of food." Luo Xia felt that although this guy was pretty good, his actions were undoubtedly stupid. The egg's interference effect was limited, and it also expanded the chasing team.

It was really fast. If there were sports schools in this world, he might not have to steal, but could settle down.

"Damn it, you don't have eyes!"

Rorschach was still imagining the scene of these guys getting together while eating, but he ran to Rorschach in an instant. Rorschach blocked his way, and the thief turned around and cursed.

"You're the only one with legs and a mouth?" Are you so good at running? So sarcastic?

Everyone's attention was focused on Mr. Thief who was taunting.

Then, in full view of everyone, Mr. Thief could no longer run, and he stopped in mid-air with a strange posture.

A cold air rose between a young man in gray robes and the thief. White ice crystals outlined a huge arm, which held the thief tightly.

The huge and noisy market suddenly became quiet, with only the crowing of chickens and ducks, and the onlookers looking at each other in amazement.

Rorschach felt uncomfortable with this atmosphere, but fortunately there was sudden applause and cheers: "Okay! Let the thief taste the power of magic!"

Applause also sounded one after another, and the surprised faces became full of smiles, and everyone applauded Rorschach. The suffocating air in the market returned to flow, and the onlookers gradually dispersed.

"So you are the mage!" A tall and thin man walked out from among the thief's pursuers. It was Rorschach who quietly helped him when he entered the city.

"Tie up the gentleman who is good at running and pour hot water on him, otherwise he will freeze to death."

Now the thief was covered in hoarfrost, shivering and huddled up, almost fainting.

"Okay, okay." The other stall owners took out the thick hemp rope and tied up the frozen thief again. A woman wearing a leather apron with fish scales and fishy smell on her body came over and kicked the thief away. The small bag in Mr.'s hand.

"This thief took Ms. Aina's money."

"He picked up the herring in a sneaky way. I don't think he is a good person!" The lady said and kicked him again.

"Flolan, the manager of the aquatic product area of ​​the market."

The tall and thin man smiled and shook hands with Rorschach. Rorschach noticed that his smile was restrained and the strength of his handshake was also very light. Floran's physical condition seemed not to be very good, so it was no wonder that he almost fell down while carrying the truck in the morning.

Rorschach was a little surprised: "Rorschach, the mage of the Tower of Stars. It turns out that you are the administrator, and I saw you moving goods this morning. Floran, you are different from the manager in my impression."

"Help me hurry up and don't block the road for too long."

"That's not what I meant, forget it." Luo Xia didn't want to waste any more time and was about to leave.

It happened that at this time, the fishmonger's wife who had left came back: "Mr. Master, I haven't thanked you yet!" She was holding two small fish with ropes through their mouths and wanted to hand them to Rorschach.

"No need, it's easy." Indeed, he raised his hand, holding up the [Hand of Ice] with "Energy Deprivation" attached.

Floran lowered his voice: "Just accept it, sir. They will be uneasy if you don't accept it!"

Rorschach looked at Floran, then at the woman with evasive eyes, and sighed: "Then I want to thank you, ma'am."

Floran continued: "Come on, Master Rorschach. If the priest comes here, you will be delayed."

When Rorschach came out of "Valuvana's belly", in addition to filling his stomach, he also had two wet fishes. He asked for a paper bag from the butcher's shop, then froze the fish and wrapped it in the paper bag - if he carried the fish to the city center, he would probably get more attention.

After the gray-robed boy left, the onlookers at the market started talking a lot: "Is this the magician?"

"This little guy is so handsome when he catches thieves! If only I could do this, and then do that!"

"Don't let that big fat man hear you!"

"You mean the 'Wild Boar' monk? What are you afraid of? That guy is still sleeping right now."

Rorschach didn't know what others were talking about after leaving, and took a bus and carriage to Tianyuan Street under Floran's guidance before leaving.

Pastoral Street is one of the main axes of the city, with tall street trees and gorgeous buildings on both sides. The passers-by are often gentlemen with poles and woolen wigs and ladies holding small umbrellas. At the end of the road is a tall flat-topped tower with an "A"-shaped base, straddling the park. The main body of the tower looks like an unlit torch.

The technology tree in this world is not very good, but the construction level is quite high!

Rorschach also thought of the "Sky Tree" as an airship port. It is said that the "Starlight Torch Tower" was built by the Magic Guild hiring dwarves to guide it as a gift to King Charles XVI.

Every night on the birthday of His Majesty, the highest point will be lit and magic will be used to cast stars of light, hence the name Starlight Torch.

There was an episode during the construction period:

The Church of Order was dissatisfied with the mage building such a tall building in Valuauna, and His Majesty entrusted the Cardinal Archbishop Di Plessis, who served in the palace, to mediate and ended up building a mini monastery on the top platform of the Sky Tree.

These were introduced by Pascal, a man who could speak three sentences a sentence. He told Rorschach that there was a famous restaurant in the middle of the tower, and Master Kano could not stop having brunch there.

Breakfast lasts until lunch and becomes brunch, which can satisfy the nobles who sleep in, while ordinary people are already working at this time!

However, after taking the elevator to the Tower Chinese Restaurant, a polite waiter stopped at the door: "Sorry, sir, we are closed now."

Rorschach looked inside and saw a waiter walking around carrying a dinner plate. He asked, "Is it brunch time?"

"Yes."

"But closed?"

The waiter stopped talking, as if waiting for Rorschach to understand. Rorschach hesitated for a moment, then took out Leonor Cano's business card from the ring, then took off the mage badge and handed it to the waiter:

"If Master Kano is inside, please pass it on to him and tell him that Rorschach has arrived."

The waiter nodded, accepted it, turned around and walked in.

"I'm very sorry to keep you waiting." After a while, the waiter came out, returned the two things to Rorschach, and opened the door for him.

The extremely expensive, completely colorless and transparent glass could only be fired in the merchant city-states on the southern coast of the continent, and the secret of the craft was strictly guarded. Now Rorschach has seen the largest floor-to-ceiling glass hall, and it is normal for the restaurant overlooking Valuana City to be popular.

But now it has only one customer, a slightly plump man who concentrates on smearing chestnut jam on the cookies. He was wearing a white loose shirt, and his delicate mustache trembled as his mouth opened and closed. Also on the table were grilled fish, refried beans with meat sauce, sliced ​​and layered grilled vegetables, and a bowl of thick soup with no visible ingredients.

Presumably this is the Archmage Kano. Just as he was thinking about this, Kano spoke, this time without ingesting food: "Sit down, Rorschach."

After speaking, the waiter who had been standing beside him opened the chair opposite the Archmage for Rorschach, and the other brought the dinner plate, silver knife, spoon and fork.
