Chapter 454 Royal Academy Admission Day

Chapter 454 Royal Academy Admission Day

“What? The person has been captured?”

“He hasn’t been discovered yet?”

“Hahaha reward! Big reward !”

“.”

Ji Xun and the other six returned to the hotel successfully.

When Sack knew that they had captured the black market scarface alive, the young master of the Langdon family was also extremely excited.

At the same time, he also had a higher appreciation for the loyalty, determination and wisdom of the six guards.

Young Master Sack really cares about the emperor’s relics.

But face is more important.

He had been humiliated by his enemy Faerun in the black market before, which not only brought humiliation to him, but also brought humiliation to the glory of the Langdon family.

Sak knew that he was being unreasonable, so he was so depressed that he swallowed it himself.

I didn’t expect that things would turn around so quickly.

It’s not that Sack has never thought about revenge, but he is clearly unreasonable. If he really orders revenge again, if word spreads, not only will his face not be saved, but he will also be ridiculed in the aristocratic circle.

The Dragonborn's pride prevented him from making such a decision that would bring shame to the family.

But now, a few loyal and considerate escorts have solved this problem perfectly!

They figured out their thoughts accurately and acted very decisively.

He was so decisive that while he was still trying to figure out how to regain his face, the six of them had already regained their face.

What's more important is that now his subordinates have done a very clean job, leaving no clues to the enemy.

Even if the matter is exposed in the future, Sack will dare to pat his chest and say that he did not instruct him.

The pent-up resentment in my heart was completely gone when I received the news.

Because of this action, Ji Xun and the other six people were not only recognized by Young Master Sack, but also received heavy gold rewards.

Sark gave Gale the dagger worth 100,000 gold coins he bought at the Adventurer’s Market as a reward, Gang Duoduo got a shield, Zhuo Sha got a relic robe, Seri Obtained an ancient dragon magic book.

Although Ji Xun looked down upon these things, for low-level card masters, these relics were even vital to their lives.

In the early stages of a card master's career, equipment and spell cards can decisively improve combat effectiveness.

Several reward relics are enough to increase the strength of the team by many times.

Originally, based on merit, the veteran knights of the Duke's Palace might not be able to obtain those things.

Now Young Master Sack has directly rewarded several reserve knights.

This is already a surprise.

However, Ji Xun didn't ask for anything else, he just got the two elemental elves he bought before.

This thing is immature for a young man of Sark's level. From the perspective of others, he only uses it for cash.

But no one said anything.

This is Young Master Sack's reward.

As for the information about the relics from the earth that Scarface held, Ji Xun didn’t pay much attention to it.

Leave it to Young Master Sack. Naturally, there are experts in the Duke's Palace who will figure out the information.

As for exploring and treasure hunting in the Warcraft Forest, professional adventurers are more professional.

Now we know that this information came from Duke Simon’s house, and perhaps more people know about it.

With multiple companies competing, there will inevitably be major conflicts during the adventure.

Ji Xun was not interested in wasting energy pondering over the news that had no clue.

I think it’s not too late to think about it again when the emperor’s relics appear.

What's more, he always felt that something was wrong with the sudden news about the emperor's relics.

It seems like there is a big hand stirring things up behind the scenes.

Ji Xun thought again about the bizarre incident of the Pope's assassination, and always felt that this method was a bit vaguely familiar.

Although the dragon is cunning, it prefers to use force to solve problems, so that the dragonborn in the southern continent don't seem to like to engage in too advanced conspiracies.

But in Donghuang, Ji Xun has experienced it many times.

That sense of familiarity arises spontaneously.

The next day, in an adventurer hotel in Djinn City.

Ji Xun’s body rented a room here.

At this moment, a birdcage was placed in front of him.

Opening the black cloth, there are two colorful elves sitting listlessly on cushions.

This is exactly the [Elemental Spirit] obtained by the clone.

The two elves looked at Ji Xun, their eyes filled with numbness.

They have been resold by humans many times these days. Every time they see a new face, it means they have been trafficked once.

The number of partners decreased one by one, and in the end, the two of them could not escape this fate.

And that greedy gaze makes creatures like the elves, who like beautiful things by nature, feel very uncomfortable.

Although it's different this time.

But this makes them no longer have any good impression of human beings.

Ji Xun carefully observed the two elves in the cage and was also surprised.

It was the first time I saw this kind of mythical creature that only appeared in classics, and I couldn't help but feel incredible.

And when he clearly sensed the elemental fluctuations in the two elves that were like the embodiment of laws, he felt more and more impressed by the magic of the Creator.

Because it happened that Ji Xun had this feeling on another item.

That is the mysterious symbol that represents the laws of the universe - the rune.

The two elemental elves in front of me are like living elemental runes.

Although they are all colorful and full of elements, Ji Xun also clearly sensed that one of them is leaning towards the water type and the other is leaning towards the wood type.

“Is it possible that it is really a creature transformed from elements?”

The more Ji Xun looked at it, the more magical it became.

There are not many legends recorded in the classics, but the goatee, the mature elemental elf, was the darling of the great magicians in ancient times.

Now that he has it, Ji Xun of course plans to try to cultivate it.

The elements of Djinn City are already very rich for humans, but for the two elves, it is a completely barren land.

Their spirits were flagging.

It's like a fish out of water. Although it can survive for a while, it doesn't live long.

When Ji Xun saw this, he took out two magic cores to replace the original ones in the cage.

It was like changing the water in the fish tank, and the two elves became a little more alive.

If you want two elves to become companion spiritual pets, you must first make them willing to sign a contract.

Elvish language, like Draconic language, belongs to an advanced language family that can embody laws.

No one knows this lost mythological language.

Fortunately, Ji Xun can use mental power to communicate spells [Language Knowledge].

He tried to express his thoughts with mental power: "I hope you will become my companion soul pet. If you are willing, we can sign an equal contract. I will give you an environment suitable for survival, and I will not What do I force you to do? You can leave at any time when you think it is appropriate. Of course, you need to exchange it for equal value. I will pay for you."

As he said that, he took out a parchment.

Then he wrote the contents of the contract in Talung ancient language and dragon language, and then imprinted it with spiritual power.

Normally, a symbiotic contract is signed with a pet.

This will ensure that the pet is loyal to the owner as much as possible and can also drive the pet to do things.

But Ji Xun used an equal contract.

First, because Ji Xun now understands the power of the gods, he has an accurate understanding of higher beings.

For advanced beings like elemental elves, the best way to get along is mutual respect, otherwise there will be hidden dangers in the future.

Also, for Ji Xun, these two elemental elves are really better as the legend says, and it doesn’t matter if they don’t have them.

He himself also has an instinctive kindness towards the beautiful things in the universe.

At the end of the contract, Ji Xun said again: "If you don't want to, I will let you go free."

After saying that, regardless of whether the other party understood it or not, he opened it directly birdcage.

The two elves were stunned for a moment as they watched the cell door open, but they soon reacted and flew out in panic.

After being locked up for so long, they had already become extremely disgusted with the cage that imprisoned them.

Their first reaction was to fly to the window, trying to escape.

But as soon as they reached the window, they were immediately frightened back when they saw the crowds of people surging on the street and the turbid air.

Ji Xun was not in a hurry either, with a calm expression on his face.

I never wanted to stop them from flying away.

If he really ran away, he would have lost two hundred thousand gold coins.

For him, it's not a big problem.

It is said that juvenile elemental elves are not very intelligent, but they have an innate ability to distinguish between good and evil.

They seemed to realize that the human being in front of them really meant no harm.

Escape is impossible now.

This is a human city. If you fly out, you will be caught immediately.

Compared to the greedy faces they saw before, the two elves felt that the humans in front of them were friendlier.

Ji Xun was afraid that they did not understand, so he continued to use his mental power to express his thoughts, and at the same time pointed at the contract that had just been written on the table.

After hesitating for a long time, it seemed that he understood, and the two elves landed on the table with their tired wings flashing.

One of the green-haired ones looked at Ji Xun with his green crystal eyes, as if trying to discern something.

Ji Xun also looked at them with a smile.

I have to say that elves are truly the darlings of the Creator.

If they were not only about the size of a thumb, they would definitely be considered stunning among humans.

The two elves didn’t quite understand the rules of the human world, but they roughly understood what Ji Xun meant.

The content of the equality contract is that as long as they pay the same price, they can "redeeme" themselves and leave at any time.

The two elves were lying on the sheepskin scroll that was larger than their bed, watching carefully.

Ji Xun saw that they were interested in the contract, so he did not rush to urge them. He picked up the classics he had just bought from the market and started reading by himself.

At the same time, looking at the two elves as listless as dehydrated fish, he took out two more Warcraft crystal cores.

The two elves felt bad, but they couldn't refuse.

Without the elemental energy in the crystal core, they felt like they were going to die.

About a quarter of an hour passed.

No one spoke in the room.

Ji Xun looked at the book, and the elf looked at the contract.

But suddenly, an accident happened.

As if in an illusion, Ji Xun heard words coming to his ears: "Human, can you really do what you said in the contract?"

This elf can actually talk?

And the sound is very pleasant and pleasant!

Ji Xun was instinctively curious: "Can you speak human language?"

What surprised him was not that the elves could speak, but that what they were talking about just now was Talon, which is common in the southern continent. language.

From this point of view, it is said in the black market that the elemental elves are not very intelligent and are mute. Of course it is false.

They just don't want to communicate with humans.

Although the green-haired elf was not very proficient, he still explained in Talon language, which was like a plastic spoken language: "Your human language is very simple."

These days, people are Human resale, I have heard too many human exchanges, and I have learned it a long time ago.

Ji Xun was also stunned as he listened.

Higher beings are inherently different from humans. Things like language learning that are difficult for ordinary people are not difficult for them.

That’s right!

As advanced beings, the wisdom of elves, even in their juvenile form, is definitely not comparable to that of humans.

But then again, can’t I just learn Elvish?

Countless thoughts flashed through Ji Xun's mind, and he suddenly felt as if he really had to dig up a treasure.

Being able to communicate makes it a lot easier.

He said directly: "Yes. What is written in the contract is that I will abide by it." The terms of the contract were very generous. Thinking of the tragic experience of being trafficked before, the green-haired elf was not so resistant. But she was still a little embarrassed and asked hesitantly: "Then, can you take us back to the forest. At that time, I will exchange reciprocal rewards with you. For example, I will give you some gold and gems that you humans like."

The elven world is not as complicated as humans, but these days they also understand some of human behavior.

Such as trading, coins and the like.

They know that they need something equivalent in exchange for freedom.

Ji Xun also agreed: "Of course. But not now. The forest you are in is very dangerous for humans, and I can't go there for the time being. But as written in the contract, I will abide by our agreement."

The words are true.

But if you let me go now, I will definitely not let you go.

Now that he discovered that the two elves were more intelligent than imagined, he was even more curious about this mythical creature.

And in the causal line deduced by Ji Xun, these are not just two elves.

The mythical race, the fate line involved, that is a myth!

There is a very important deduction basis in the secret method of "I Am the World", which is "cause and effect".

Yes, because.

Only there is fruit.

Only with enough contact can Ji Xun truly have the possibility of contacting the "myth" of this world.

After listening to Ji Xun's words, the two elves bargained for a while, and finally recognized the reality: they could only sign a contract first.

Fortunately, they understood the content of the contract and did not contradict it.

Only then did Ji Xun realize why merchants in the black market said it was difficult for the elf to sign a contract.

They are no less intelligent than humans.

What's more, it is a higher-level race, which is a personality gap derived from blood.

Just like humans, how could they be willing to be treated as pets by wild beasts?

Finally, the two elves made up their minds and signed their names on the parchment.

Ji Xun couldn't understand the text that looked like a flower. He could only see the regular light shining on the lines of the text.

The contract was signed and the magic circle lit up.

Ji Xun asked again: "By the way, what are your names?"

The green-haired elf responded: "My name is 'Kora'."

The one with a little blond hair said: "My name is 'Nina'."

"Your name is 'Ji' Are you looking for it? Human names are really weird."

Kola was obviously more talkative. She looked at the name on the contract, murmured, and then said truthfully: "But sir, you contract He said that he would try his best to meet our survival needs. I am presumptuous to tell you that the living environment of you humans is too bad for us elves, especially the lack of natural elements is like a desert. This is not just some magic core. These days when we can solve the problem, we are extremely uncomfortable.”

Those black market merchants and mercenaries will not waste too many high-level magic cores on them.

Although they signed a contract, they did not completely trust the human who captured them.

The elf also expressed his thoughts to a human with some hesitation.

At this point, Korra was afraid that Ji Xun would not understand, so she made another analogy: "Without elemental supply, it's like...you humans are hungry every day. If there are not enough sources of elements , our bodies may collapse"

"."

Ji Xun understood.

Smiling, he took out two fourth-level magic cores.

The expressions of the two elves looked slightly different, as if they had changed to a larger fish tank and their breathing was a little easier.

But they couldn't hide their disappointment. Korra glanced at Ji Xun's expression and said timidly: "I saw it before in your human black market merchant's shop. I know this is already... These are very advanced magic cores, but please allow me to state the facts. If you just want to rely on these magic cores to meet our daily needs, you may need a lot. Because this can barely maintain the operation of our body's elements. If you stay here for a long time. In the city, we will need at least three every day. If you want us to grow, we will need more. Even many times. Not only that, we also need spiritual cores, so that we can better understand the natural elements."

The elves have a kind of elegance that makes people feel comfortable even when communicating.

But the cognition of the elves is very different from that of humans.

This passage is very complicated.

Some words are also used differently from human habits.

But Ji Xun even guessed and deduced, and he roughly understood it.

He raised his eyebrows.

Before, he was wondering how much it would cost to raise this pair of elves, so that even the nobles would find it luxurious.

When I listen to it now, it turns out that there are quite a few.

These two level four magic cores are worth tens of thousands of gold coins in the market. How much does it cost for normal consumption in a day?

Want to cultivate and mature, and start with one hundred thousand or two hundred thousand gold coins every day?

It is not an exaggeration to say that these two little guys are the "gold-selling cave".

And there is no guarantee that it will be mature.

If it were anyone else, without any financial resources, they would really not dare to think of raising elves.

It’s a pity that Ji Xun’s family background is quite good.

Although it hurts, at least it will be affordable for a long time.

And he also heard the two elves' thoughts of returning to the forest, and said with a smile: "Don't worry. I will try my best to meet your daily needs in accordance with the contract. If I can't do it, I will do it as soon as possible. Send you back to the forest."

"Yeah."

The two elves had a hint of expectation after listening to their expressions.

They thought that this human being would most likely send them back because he could not support their consumption.

However, Ji Xun was thinking of something else.

The reason for signing an equality contract before was not just because it was the only contract that the elves would accept.

There is another consideration, which is the "equivalent exchange" clause.

The more I give now, it means that if I really cannot afford to support these two little guys, if they want to redeem themselves in the future, they should get back everything they have given, right?

And as a mythical race, there should always be something good in the family.

As long as the two elves don’t have any accidents, this business will definitely make a profit.

Thinking of this, Ji Xun didn't care about consumption at all.

However, high-level magic core is not only valuable, but more importantly, it is also a strategic material. It is a necessary material for many high-level cards.

Ji Xun didn't intend to waste it like this.

Having thought of something for a long time, he took out two pottery pots with spells.

In a blink of an eye, the elements near the pot became intense.

Although the [Useless Clay Pot] is used to seal the outer gods, for Ji Xun, this is just an auxiliary relic used for practice.

As soon as the jar is taken out and restricted by the restriction, the element concentration in the room will be at least ten times higher than before.

The two elves were also surprised when they looked at it. Cora said in surprise: "Hey, you humans actually have such a thing?"

Although I have seen some extraordinary items in the human world these days, this is still the first time. It was the first time I felt such a magical object.

The biggest advantage of human beings is that they are good at making tools. Ji Xun could understand why they were surprised, and just smiled and said: "Yeah. What do you think this is like now?"

There is one point in the contract, That is, each other must keep each other's secrets.

I’m not afraid of exposure to things like jars.

Besides, Ji Xun felt that as long as he was alive, these two elves would not be exposed.

Kola sensed the increasingly dense elements around her and said, "Yes. Although it is worse than the elements in the forest, it is enough."

Ji Xun listened. , said: "That's good."

At the same time, he remembered this in his mind. Is this level of elements similar to that in the forest?

The elements of the Southern Continent were so rich that it already surprised Ji Xun. Why on earth does the place where they live have such strong elements?

Is it a relic of the Great Emperor, or is it for other reasons?

In this way, they can barely meet their daily needs.

Ji Xun also felt

But it’s not over yet.

At this time, Ji Xun took out a moon. The soft moonlight contained strong mental pollution, making the whole room brighten instantly.

Elemental elves also need mental power to grow, which is a necessary condition for them to understand the laws of more advanced elements.

The elemental magic core is not too expensive, but the price of the mental power magic core is more than ten times that of the ordinary elemental magic core.

And it’s not easy to buy.

Ji Xun doesn’t think he can take care of him for long.

He had high hopes for the [Moon], which could always leak out mental pollution. If it can really be used to cultivate elves, it can save a lot of money.

But the only trouble is that the moon's spiritual power is polluting to ordinary humans.

I don’t know what to do with the elves.

As soon as the moon appeared, the two elves looked surprised again. They were all surprised: "Huh? What is this? Why do I feel that it exudes a very gentle spiritual power."

"This seems to be the moon in the 'moon well' on the mural of the clan's ancestral land? I feel a familiar power"

"Human beings are really incredible. They have different It’s just a weird tool, but there is such an item with divine power”

"The patriarch said that humans are very cunning, even more cunning than dragons"

"Well. We must always be careful."

"He can't understand what we say anyway. "

"."

Ji Xun listened to the two elves talking about something.

They didn't understand, but it seemed like they didn't feel any discomfort.

Ji Xun also breathed a sigh of relief.

He remembered that he once communicated with Master Merlin that the so-called extraordinary pollution actually means that the body is too weak and cannot withstand too high extraordinary energy.

And higher races have their own faith immunity.

[Elemental Elves] are also a pure-blood advanced race, and it is almost impossible for their faith to be contaminated by alien gods.

Ji Xun had speculated like this before, and that's when he came up with the idea of ​​raising elves.

But in order to confirm the risk, he still said truthfully: "Um, Korra, Nina, do you think such a spiritual field is suitable? What I mean is that there is some contamination of the beliefs of the outer gods in this relic, which will It won’t have any impact on you?”

Kola explained: “Of course not! We, the elves, believe in the goddess of nature and we must not be contaminated by other gods.”
< br>As she spoke, she added: "Well, this Mr. Ji Xun, although I don't know how you came to have such a magical thing, for us elves, this soft spiritual field is The best growing environment. Thank you for your efforts.”

At this moment, I finally don’t have to worry about dying all the time.

At this moment, they truly believed in the ability of the human being in front of them to fulfill the contract.

But they were so naive that they didn't realize that they were gradually becoming less repulsive to the humans in front of them.

Ji Xun smiled slightly as he listened and said: "That's good. If you need anything else, just tell me directly."

The moon and the jar can be used, which is enough. The most important survival condition for elves.

He is also looking forward to more and more whether he can develop it in the future.

Ji Xun stayed in the hotel every day to practice.

At such a close distance, what the clone sees is what the main body sees.

Since the last incident in the black market, the "Su Lun" team has completely gained the trust of Young Master Sack and has taken them with them wherever they go.

Their daily job is to accompany the young master around the city, trying out various high-end places such as auction houses, clubs, and aristocratic circles.

The rare resources and information that top nobles have access to are much easier than ordinary people. Ji Xun also took the opportunity to learn more about the Giant Spirit City, the Royal Academy, and the Warcraft Forest.

Although Ji Xun was in the hotel and did not go out, he knew a lot of information.

He also deliberately paid attention to some information.

The news about the Pope's assassination seems to have suddenly stopped, and there is no news about Xie Guozhong;

However, there is more and more information about the emperor's relics. More and more legends are also circulating in the mouths of adventurers. Even in the Royal Academy, we have heard that several students from big noble families have obtained the curse card in their hands.

A large number of ancient relics from a specific era also appeared in the adventurer market, which also attracted more adventurers to go deep into the forest.

There are many ancient ruins buried in the Warcraft Forest, and they are discovered one after another like a wave.

Adventurers in the southern continent have become accustomed to strange things.

But Ji Xun always felt that there seemed to be something wrong behind the large-scale appearance of such emperor's relics.

However, there was not enough intelligence to support the deduction, and he was not sure whether that feeling was correct or not.

Ten days passed by.

It's the first day of school at Ariel Royal Academy.

Ji Xun, these preparatory knights, are about to start studying for a long time in the future with Young Master Sack.
