    Act Thirteen Dragon Vein (II) The tavern at night was still bustling with people, and there were mercenaries coming and going everywhere.  They sat at a round table made of solid wood, holding wine glasses, telling crude jokes loudly, and sipping rye wine that was not actually very tasty.  The armors on these mercenaries will touch each other from time to time, making a "bumping" sound, so it is difficult for you to distinguish what these mercenaries are saying in the noise.  In a relatively remote corner, a young mage ordered a glass of red liqueur and read it carefully while holding a heavy book.  The surrounding sounds seemed a bit noisy, but the young mage didn't feel noisy at all.  He just calmly took a sip of red wine, and from time to time he would turn a new page in the unfamiliar book in front of him.  This mage naturally attracted the attention of people around him.  Although Vidora claims to be a magic empire, there are actually not many real mages in this huge country.  Those mages that mortals understand often sit high on the highest floor of the mage tower, using their wise eyes to understand the most original mysteries of the world So it is very rare to see a mage, but that mage doesn't speak.  , people around him would not be so reckless in talking to him.  Of course Avis is not here to read.  In other words, reading here is just a small thing he does casually.  What he actually wants to do is listen to the rumors here.  In the game, the rumors obtained from the tavern are quite precious.  You can often hear some strange rumors in a small town's tavern, and when you solve it, the rewards will be beyond your imagination.  This is no longer the town where Ives became the Dragon Vein Mage. He has already set off to a new place.  This is a place called 'Qiming Town'. Like most towns in the Aisengo territory in the southern part of the kingdom, it is poor, desolate and filled with all kinds of poor people and mercenaries. Of course, there are also criminals.  When night falls in this remote town, people wandering outside are often not so easy to deal with.  When night comes, Avis can only stay in a hotel in this town.  The first floor of this hotel is a pub.  So Ives decided to collect the information here first, settle the dinner, and read some of the accumulated magic books.  The most talked about topic among these mercenaries is probably the whereabouts of the mage who was expelled from the tower.  It is said that he has eliminated the third wave of soldiers who went to capture him, and the place where he last appeared was a hill not far from the town where Ives stayed before.  Elvis was silent for a while - was it really him who released the vampire?  High tower generally refers to the mage tower built by the mage.  In addition to allowing mages to study the true meaning of magic, the mage tower is also widely used to teach apprentices.  The mages expelled from the tower refer to the magicians who defected from the magician tower.  The 'tower' here does not refer to the tower mage in Alpha, another mage country in the land of fire and copper on the other side of the distant continent.  In fact, Alpha's Tower Mages and Victora's Winter Ring Mages are both extremely powerful mage organizations.  The only one on the entire continent that can compare with this is the Rune Mage of the Iltonians.  The second most talked about topic was the war that was about to break out at Altola Port.  The Port of Altola is close to the Sea of ??Storms but has always lacked iron. However, the city of Ferente near the Port of Altola has rich ore resources.  Both places have strong military power, and this is also an area that is difficult for the Victora Council to govern The war may not come so quickly, but it is almost inevitable.  And from time to time, they would also talk about some things in the royal capital.  For example, which great writer published what books, and how he criticized the church and others.  The current situation in Vidola is more like the Renaissance era in another world. The emergence of various ideological waves has made this country firmly take its own steps towards a capitalist society.  Of course, the most prosperous area is only the central part of Vidola, and the rest of Vidola is not much better than other countries.  Especially in the south and east of Aisengo, poverty can be seen with the naked eye.  Avis quietly took a sip of the sweet wine. The wine was mellow and sweet. After drinking it, he could feel a fire rising in his abdomen.  He finished the drink and then placed the glass in front of himself.  After channeling the power of dragon veins, it was difficult for him to get drunk with ordinary drinks.  Of course, thanks to alchemy in the brewing process of this era, high-purity wine is not so difficult to obtain.  Some drinks can even make a legend drunk, so what Avis ordered was actually a fruit wine with a very low alcohol content.  Slowly closing the book in front of him, Avis was about to stand up and walk away, a figure slowly came to him.  Avis calmed down and looked at the person in front of him.  Wearing a black cloak and an emerald green dagger at his waist.  His figure is extremely well-proportioned, and he has tan leather armor under his black cloak.  There were some dangerous objects hanging around the leather armor. The first moment Ives saw this man, he knew that he was a wanderer - or to put it less euphemistically, he was a thief.  The thief sat down directly in front of Ives. He raised his head slightly, revealing his beardless chin: "Maybe you should talk to me, Mr. Mage." "Who are you?"  Ives frowned, and he turned to look at the thief, "Why should I talk to you?" "My name is Ge Tongluo, and people who are familiar with me call me 'Half a Gold Coin'. But who am I?"  "That's not the point." The thief said, "The important thing is - do you want a way to make money?" Mr. Ives knew that he was encountering a random mission.  Of course, this is a term in the game. In this real world, you never know what kind of tasks you will encounter.  Avis was silent for a while, then said: "Let's talk about it." "You know, we rogues need our hands to eat - and a good weapon. We call a good weapon  An extension of the hand." Ge Tongluo stretched out his hand, which was slender and pale, with thick calluses on the inside. "Unfortunately, my weapon was lost in a previous operation.  I probably know whose hands it is, but they have laid a sure-fire trap on the road. I am not a mage, sir. I only have experience in dismantling ordinary traps. Those inscriptions engraved with magic will only make me die somewhere.  A dark corner. So I need a mage to help me If you can help me get my dagger back, I will naturally give you a reward that is satisfactory to you." After hearing this, Avis calmed down.  Looking at the wanderer who called himself Ge Tongluo, "I need you to sign a magic contract, and if the enemy's strength is too strong, I think I should have the right to retreat." He actually wanted to agree to this.  Mission accomplished.  Quests that earn both money and experience are not easy to come by.  Of course, necessary caution is still essential, and Ives doesn't want to capsize in the gutter.  "This is natural." The wanderer stood up and continued: "We may have to go out of the city. I can sign the magic contract now If we are ready, two o'clock in the morning is the time for us to take action."  Tongluo then showed a smile, "I wish us a happy cooperation." "Happy cooperation." Ives and Ge Tongluo shook hands, and then Ge Tongluo signed an agreement drafted by Ives.  Magic contract.  Under the watchful eye of the goddess of magic, I guarantee in the name of God that the contents of the contract will definitely be implemented.  The goddess of magic, Csulis, is an absolutely neutral god, so there is no need to worry about her favoring anyone. ?¡­ ?The night is getting darker and darker.  The sky was filled with stars, and the soft moonlight illuminated the road underfoot.  Ives took a deep breath, and he could feel a fresh smell from nature in his breath.  The mist gradually began to appear at night, and the line of sight was shortened.  But this does not hinder Avis, who is a half-elf.  His eyes could see things in the darkness very clearly - and because the power of the dragon in his body was gradually developed, he could see much more clearly than before.  And the darkness can't stop Ge Tongluo's sight either.  After acting with him, Avis discovered that this guy had about one-eighth the blood of a drow.  In this world, if your alien bloodline is less than one-eighth, then you are no different from humans, and if your bloodline is more than seven-eighths, then there is no difference between you and that alien.  So Ge Tongluo can barely be regarded as a half-elf. He has a lifespan of about two hundred years and the ability to see in the dark.  Likewise, he also has certain strengths in agility.  Avis held his breath slightly, and he could already capture the mission target in his sight.  The light from the torch looked so dazzling in the darkness.  His eyes turned to his side. The wanderer nodded slightly and said in a hoarse voice: "Yes, they are them."  The first battle after the mage must be won beautifully!  Avis put his hand on the staff on his waist, and silently added the 'invisibility spell' to himself.  ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­ Asking for a recommendation and collection~
