478 No matter what era, there is a kind of book that never goes out of style
Han Xiao and his team took a low-altitude transport aircraft to the north of City No. 8. The clues of the rock mercenaries pointed to a popular commercial street. There were people coming and going, noisy, and the street was wide. There was a fountain square in the center, and there were various shops on the surrounding streets. .
Following the address, everyone came to the door of a shop. The building was painted in colorful colors, and there were magic lanterns with changing colors on both sides of the door. The door was open.
Melos looked up and glanced at the name of the store, his face twitching.
"Boai Bookstore...what the hell is this name?"
"Go in and have a look."
Walking into the store, the layout inside is actually very simple. The ground is smooth brown wooden floor, and there are rows of glazed wood bookshelves filled with books. These books exude a strong magical atmosphere and seem to be high-end magic recorded in magic words. Books, the store is filled with the smell of books. In a place like Norios, almost only magicians are still using books. This is obviously a magician's shop.
The clue said that there was someone here who knew the target's whereabouts. Han Xiao looked around. Because it was blocked by the bookshelf, he couldn't see if there was anyone inside. He patted Melos on the shoulder and motioned for him to call someone.
Melos was about to speak when he suddenly realized a question, "Wait a minute, why don't you do such a small thing yourself?"
"You have a great body, a loud voice, and a lot of energy." Han Xiao said expressionlessly, "It's mainly because I'm too lazy to scream."
"..."
Melos glared at him and shouted, his voice like thunder.
"anyone there!!"
Wow…
There was an immediate noise deep in the bookshelf, as if the person inside was frightened by the voice, accidentally bumped into the bookshelf, causing a pile of books to fall down, and screamed in pain.
"Wait, wait a minute, I'm coming out..."
A male human wearing a mage's robe limped out and ran out, hissing. He was hit on his feet by a brick-thick book. When he saw everyone, he smiled enthusiastically.
"I am the owner of this bookstore. Do you like single person or multiple people? Do you like beautiful or rough? What race of creatures do you like? Oh, you are all humanoid species. I have humanoid creatures of any skin color here!"
Everyone was confused, Silvia couldn't help but asked in confusion: "What are you talking about?"
The magician shop owner blinked, with a look of surprise on his face, "I see, there are also hybrids, whether it's insects, fungi, beasts, machines, as long as you can think of the races, I have them all, and I guarantee to meet all your tastes!"
What the hell is hybridization? Do you think you are rice?!
The more Han Xiao listened, the more he felt something was wrong, "Aren't you a book seller here?"
At this time, Aroshia on the side opened a book on the bookshelf. Everyone looked at it. This magic book was full of illustrations. The pictures were moving and lifelike. This was a kind of photo-taking magic that was often used in video recording. Like a movie shown in a book, each scene is a fragment.
It looks quite high-end, but the content is...
"Yeah!" Sylvia's face turned red suddenly, and she turned her head hurriedly, but her eyes drifted to the book involuntarily.
"This, this..." Melos looked confused, and his worldview was shocked.
Aroshia thought thoughtfully, "So this is the process of reproduction of material life..."
"Unknown information discovered... Data collection in progress..." Philip's mechanical eyes flashed wildly, capturing every frame.
The three Volga brothers moved like rabbits, pulling out a large pile of books from the bookshelf with lightning speed and spreading them on the counter, "How much does it cost? I want them all!"
"Stop it."
Han Xiaoxu stared, reached out and closed the book in Aroxia's hand, threw it aside, stared at the magician shop owner, and said in a deep voice: "I came to find a guy with the ability to predict, and he should also leave it for you.
information."
The smile of the magician shop owner suddenly froze and he became disappointed. He said to himself, "I'm not here to buy books. I've already decorated it so formally. Why are there still no customers? Do I need to be so afraid of others knowing about this kind of thing?
."
After taking a look at everyone, the magician straightened his clothes, stood up straight, and his wretched temperament suddenly changed. At this time, he looked like a magician, and said: "Introduce yourself, you can call me Yi.
Xuan, I am a teleportation mage, this bookstore is just a side business, the main business is to operate teleportation services."
On some magical planets or advanced civilized planets, there will always be mages who operate teleportation services to teleport customers to another location on the same planet to save the time consumed by vehicles. The farther the teleportation distance, the greater the cost and difficulty.
, so generally only teleportation is carried out on the same planet, and rarely across planets. If not positioned well, the client will be thrown into the universe. Only powerful enough mages dare to carry out ultra-long distance teleportation.
When Emersy blew up the Dark Star Mothership, she used teleportation magic to arrive instantly from several galaxies away, and the caster was another super A-level mage boss who was fighting with her for fun, and was precisely located in
The Dragon Calm Floating Island, which happened to be on the scene at that time, had no deviation in the distance of several galaxies. It was simply an incredible magical power.
"Are you a teleportation mage?" Han Xiao asked: "So the target I am looking for was teleported to other places in Norios by you?"
Yi Xuan shrugged, "He pays and I teleport. It's a normal transaction."
"Where did he go?"
"Ha, I won't reveal my client's secrets casually." Yi Xuan laughed, "By the way, he also left me a message to pass on to everyone who wants to find him."
"What did he say?" Han Xiao frowned.
"He said that he wants to play a game with you. As long as you steal the Heart of Crystal Fire, he will see you."
"Heart of Crystal Fire?" Han Xiao kicked Phillip with his toes, "Check it out."
"Searching for buzz... Found buzz..." Philip's mechanical eye suddenly shot out light, forming a translucent projection screen in mid-air, which contained the information about the Heart of Crystal Fire.
[Crystal Fire Heart: A ring ornament made of rare crystals born in lava. It is very exquisite and luxurious. It is said to be immune to high temperatures and burning. It was once auctioned for a high price of 7.93 million innars and was sold by the Norios Consortium.
Leader Rockface bought it as a gift to his wife. When Rockface and his wife attended public events, his wife always wore this ring...]
"Seven, seven hundred and ninety-three million!" Melos almost spit out a mouthful of old blood. Spending so much money just to buy a broken ring to please a woman?!
This can at least buy several battleships!
His worldview was once again shaky.
Han Xiao's expression changed, "He wants me to steal the sky-high price jewelry of the wife of a super consortium leader? Does he want to take advantage of us or is he teasing us?!"
Steal the precious ornaments of the wife of the consortium leader who controls this planet in Norios and commit suicide!
The teacher at Dragon Seat clearly wants to play tricks on me!
"Don't ask me, I just collect money to send messages." Yi Xuan spread his hands, "Lokface's wife is in Norios, but don't expect me to teleport you directly. I don't want to be regarded as your accomplice."
Narrowing his eyes, Han Xiao said in a deep voice: "I am not interested in fulfilling this excessive request. Where did you teleport him to?"
Yixuan was impatient, "Didn't I say that I will not reveal the client's secrets, and don't try to bribe me. I have professional ethics."
"Then don't blame me for beating you up." Melos immediately put on a fierce expression, raised his casserole-sized fist, stepped out from the crowd, and stepped forward, preparing to scare the teleportation mage.
His big hand was about to touch Yixuan's collar. At this moment, a sudden change occurred!
Buzz
A circle of light doors suddenly appeared, just in the gap between the two people. Melos was startled. He reacted quickly. He stopped his forward momentum and hurriedly stopped, about to retreat. Unexpectedly, the light door suddenly stretched out.
A series of crimson tentacles appeared, wrapped around his body, and suddenly exploded with great force, directly pulling Melos, whose center of gravity was unstable, into the light door and disappeared.
Immediately afterwards, a whirling sound came from the air, and the light door rotated and shrank towards the center point, quickly disappearing without a trace.
"Melos!" Boss Volga exclaimed.
Everyone's expressions suddenly changed.
The atmosphere froze for a moment.
Yi Xuan glanced at everyone proudly.
"Sure enough, it's the same as what that person said. If the people who come to him don't get the information they want, they will threaten me. Huh, you can't think of it. I have been prepared for it!"
Han Xiao was very calm and held his forehead helplessly. When Melos acted, he noticed something strange and wanted to stop him, but before he could speak, Melos was tricked by the martial arts master. It was also a problem to move too fast!
Sure enough, the target guessed this situation, so he alerted the Teleportation Mage in advance, thereby tricking them. When the target made such an excessive request to steal the Crystal Fire Heart, it formed the "incentive" of the prophecy, and even if it was not
Using the ability to predict, one can also calculate their reactions, knowing that they will most likely refuse the request, and then look for other methods from the teleportation mage. The threat is obviously a very likely behavior, thus putting them in a dilemma.
'Teleportation magic, a tricky ability...' Han Xiao secretly chewed his teeth. Melos was unlucky to be tricked, so getting him back first is the top priority.
The atmosphere was tense. At this time, Yi Xuan pointed at the door and said calmly with a tone of control: "I am proficient in teleportation magic and always maintain a state of being about to be triggered. Before you encounter me, I can teleport away."
, so don’t even think about threatening me.
And if your companion wants to offend me, I will make him suffer some pain. After two hours, I will teleport him back and throw him at the gate to the north of City No. 8. Then you can go find it yourself. Now I am not interested in dealing with him.
