Arya nodded vigorously and seriously, her orange hair shaking slightly:
"Yes, it's the first time I've seen Master Duncan so excited. In addition, Brother Shabron has helped us so much in Wind's Breath Town. Now in Rainbow Castle, if you need anything from Arya, Arya
We will definitely do our best to help!”
Chabron thought briefly:
The magic tower of the dwarf mage Duncan Glitterstone is on the 211th floor of the Rainbow Castle in the thousand-story city. The address where Antinoah Moon Whisper left a message directing him to is on the 666th floor of the Rainbow Castle.
Going to these two places means——
800 floors away from the thousand-story city, the Temple of Eternal Light.
In view of the fact that the water behind the [3-075] incident was deep enough to drown deep-sea fish, even if the professional assassin who assassinated him had been driven away, Chabron still did not dare to act rashly.
You can first let Mera use [Theosophy] to confirm the safety of the Eternal Light. Shabron came up with an idea in his mind.
At the supper table, the young priest Chabron told others about the "airship crash" of the magician Toffler.
This made the blond boy feel like something was stuck in his heart - even though the elderly mayor Toffler had once become his enemy under the influence of the anomaly [3-075].
Chabron firmly believed that if the old man Toffler was killed during a fire ceremony, he would be considered worthy of his crime; if he died in a battle with a stranger, it would only be considered inevitable; but he should not serve as a witness after returning to normal.
Something unexpected happened!
[3-075] What is involved behind the scenes? The struggle for power at the top of various countries? The millennium plan of a supernatural organization? Even the plans of the gods in the astral world?
The more he tried to stop him, the more he wanted to find the answer. Chabron clenched his fists and dug his nails into his muscles.
At the end of the supper, Jacks saw that the atmosphere was tense and suggested that he tell everyone a joke.
"Let me be clear first, the joke I tell may not be very funny." A bright and hearty smile appeared on the man's face.
So, he told a joke.
It's really not funny.
When he finally realized that his uncle's joke was over, the silver-haired boy An Luo laughed. It was obvious that he was really polite.
When the banquet dispersed, outside the railing on the 800th floor of the Hongbao, one could vaguely see the Oriental Tubai.
---------------
The starlight gradually disappeared.
The moon sets and the sky becomes white.
The night in the high-rise buildings of the thousand-story city is too short and fleeting, but the day is so long that it is jaw-dropping.
The next morning, near the Temple of Eternal Light on the 800th floor of the Rainbow Castle, Chabron searched for all the houses that were being rented and found the best one, intending to use it as a new residence for his adoptive father Matru and himself.
The house is right next to the south-facing edge of the 800th floor of Rainbow Castle, where you can witness the sun, moon and stars rising in the east and setting in the west. This residence is very close to the temple, so it is easy to respond even if there is an accident.
"This place looks very nice." Chabron turned his head and looked at his adoptive father beside him. Matruh did not speak, but just nodded. So they found the landlord.
The landlord, Daniel, is a red-haired man in his 40s. He works hard to collect rent every month and has gained some weight because of this hard work.
Now, Daniel saw an old man and a young man walking towards him——
One of them is a young man with hair as golden as molten gold, and the other is an old priest with silver hair as white as snow.
The landlord looked at the clothes of the two people vigilantly and found that both of them were plainly dressed and did not look like his target customers——
The boy's white shirt looked like it was from ten years ago, with some sweat stains on it after exercise; the old man's old robe was slightly faded and looked to be at least twenty years old.
The blond boy stepped forward with a smile:
"Hello, Mr. Mark. I looked around and found that your house at No. 6 Mercury Street meets our needs in all aspects. The price is negotiable, right?"
Landlord Daniel remembered that previous guests who were interested in renting that room were deterred by the high rent when negotiating the price.
So this time, after looking at the two people's clothes, the landlord didn't have any hope of closing a deal. He just wanted to deal with them casually out of politeness:
"Yes. Judging from your accent, you are not a local from Hongbao, the royal capital?"
"Well, this is our first time coming to Rainbow Castle." Chabron responded with a smile.
Although I don’t know how many times I’ve been here before I traveled through time. Chabron thought.
"Then I don't recommend that you rent the house at No. 6 Mercury Street." The landlord considered the words and used a more euphemistic wording. "The selling point of this house is that there is a dedicated skeleton servant in the house who can be responsible for laundry, cooking, etc.
Simple work. I know that outsiders are not so open-minded in this regard and are more concerned about necromancy."
"Wait a minute, there is a skeleton servant in the house?" Upon hearing this, Xia Bron blinked his green eyes and his expression showed confusion.
"Yes." The landlord shrugged, "I can recommend another one to you, and the price is much cheaper..."
"That's great! I'm about to hire a skeleton servant!" Chabron's eyes lit up, "I can't wait to move in tomorrow, what's the price?"
The landlord, red-haired Daniel, was stunned for a moment and forced out a model smile. His smile covered his entire face, with folds and spirals interlaced:
"As you know, it's hard to find such a good location at No. 6 Shuiyin Street. In addition, this is Hongbao, the royal capital, and the prices are a bit higher than outside, so the prices are also on the high side. I suggest you find the most suitable place first.
A residence that matches your own consumption level..."
The slightly fat red-haired man stopped talking midway through his words.
The landlord's smile solidified and became dull.
——Because the delicate-looking blond boy is opening his briefcase.
It is said that the money does not shine. This is a rumor because Daniel was blinded by its brilliance.
The landlord's expression froze, like pieces of lava solidifying on the small flats on the edge of the volcano. He seemed to be under a [human immobilization spell], standing there without moving for a long time.
It took Daniel some time to recover from the [Abnormal State·Shock], and then said:
"I suggest you find a residence that best suits your consumption level. For example, the one at No. 6 Mercury Street we are discussing now is very suitable for the two of you."
At this moment, a young girl's voice came from behind Chabron:
"What's wrong, Daniel? Has anyone reported anything wrong with the skeletons I evoked recently?"
A girl wearing too simple linen clothes came over, and she happened to be looking for the landlord. The girl had no makeup on her face, her face could barely be considered pretty, but her skin was so pale that there was no blood.
Landlord Daniel said to the girl:
"No. Miss Priest, the quality of the undead you summon has always been good - except for the occasional complaint that there are too few dishes. However, I am currently receiving two distinguished guests. If you have anything to do, please wait a moment."
Xia Bron turned to look at the girl who was too plainly dressed. He added some points to [Religious Knowledge], so based on the holy symbol hanging around the girl's neck, he immediately deduced her identity - the [Death Rattle Girl] among the Nine Gods.
