14. Musu A: The face can be fake, the emotion can be fake. Even the essence can be fake.
The consequence of completing the task quickly is that it will take 23 hours before the iron folding stool is ready.
Mu Su couldn't really wait for 23 hours in non-sleep mode, so he went to the hotel and spent 10 copper coins to get some sleep.
Dududududu~
After a piece of cheerful music, Mu Su stood at the door of the hotel, with his health back to full and the morning light pouring in.
After running to the blacksmith shop to get an iron folding stool with an attack power of 10~15, Mu Su changed into cloth armor and increased his health to 300. He broke into unlocked houses one by one, rummaged through drawers in wardrobes, opened boxes and smashed jars. Accumulated harvest.
According to the diary, the Mountain of the End where the Demon King is located is in the southernmost part of the continent. The journey is long and difficult. There is a summer city dozens of miles southwest of Yiboer Village. That is also Mu Su’s destination—go there to find someone heading south.
caravan.
Xia City is the city most favored by merchants and adventurers in the northern region.
It was just that some accidents happened in the past few days. The city lord's daughter Elizabeth fell seriously ill for no reason three days ago. The city lord was furious and wanted to hold the adventurers in the city accountable. After his subordinates stopped them, they strictly controlled the adventurers from entering the city. At the same time, they searched hard for a doctor to treat his daughter.
"So this is a side mission."
Mu Su emerged from behind the two adventurers who were talking about the above, and touched his chin and thought.
A real man will leave the novice village and go directly to the final boss, and only sissies will take on the side missions!
Musu platoon entered the city. The two inspection guards looked at Musu sternly: "What kind of weapon are you holding in your hand?"
Mu Su unfolded the folding stool, sat on it in full view of everyone, and answered: "Daily necessities."
The guard's expression was stagnant. Hearing the snickers from around him, he felt embarrassed and waved his hand impatiently: "Okay, let's go in."
Except for Ybor Village, other NPCs are no different from normal people.
Mu Su stood up, folded the stool, and walked into Xia City.
People were coming and going on the streets, and there was an endless stream of merchants and vendors. The ban on adventurers did not seem to make the city deserted for a long time.
Musu behaved like a normal person and asked passers-by where the caravan gathering was, and headed to the gathering place.
There are many caravans traveling south, and the price depends on the distance.
Mu Su chose the farthest place to travel. Their destination was a small town less than a hundred miles away from the Mountain of Terminal.
It's just that the price is really expensive. It costs 100 gold coins to go there. Even joining as a mercenary still costs 1 gold coin. That's 10,000 copper coins.
As a lesson from heaven and earth, Mu Su swept away Yibor Village and even stole valuable items from the weapons store merchant's house and then sold them to the weapons store merchant. This immoral act was repeated five or six times, and he only had more than two thousand copper coins!
In desperation, Mu Su thought of something, and his black eyes gradually narrowed...
…
The weather that was sunny a moment ago was now covered with dark clouds.
This is a common occurrence during the rainy season.
In the dull weather, Sauron, the guard of the city lord's palace, only felt more anxious. The injury of the city lord's daughter was not optimistic.
Everyone in Xia City likes Elizabeth, she is an angelic girl. She treats all the nobles equally, as well as the untouchables who beg all day long.
So when the news of Elizabeth's attack spread, everyone in the city was outraged.
A figure came into Sauron's sight. The figure wore a long robe that covered the body, and a hood covered the face underneath.
Very few people looked at the street in front of the city lord's palace, especially this person who was rushing towards the door.
"Stop, this is the city lord's palace, no one is allowed to enter." Sauron cautiously placed his weapon in front of the black-robed man.
The man in black robe stood still, his white palm protruding from the wide sleeves of his robe and spreading out. A medicinal herb suddenly appeared in the empty palm.
Obscure and mysterious syllables came from inside the black robe: "I am here for treatment."
"It turns out to be the magician. But I'll be honest..." Seeing the ability that only magicians have, Sauron's tone became respectful. "The illness of the city lord's daughter cannot be solved by magicians..."
The man in black robe turned his palm, and a bottle of medicine appeared in his palm: "I am still a pharmacist."
Sauron's face changed. It was like the light of hope that a person who is dying of thirst can only see when he sees water.
"Please wait a moment, I will call the Lord of the City right away." Sauron couldn't help but burst into joy and hurriedly rushed into the mansion.
Not long after, a middle-aged man who was not angry and boastful strode over, surrounded by others.
Oliver, Lord of Summer City.
He got straight to the point: "You said you can cure my daughter, but how?"
The power of the superior failed to move the man in black robes at all. As before, he uttered obscure and mysterious syllables: "I never said I could cure your daughter. Whether she can be cured or not remains to be seen."
Oliver's expression changed. He couldn't hear the awkward accent clearly, but he guessed it must come from some ancient language.
There are many films that have lasted for thousands of years on the mainland... Magical families...
These days, he has seen many people who pretended to be deceitful and abducted, and now they are all in prison. But this person in front of him...Oliver had a vague feeling that he might really have a way to cure his daughter.
"Then please come with me."
Following the city lord as he walked through the courtyard, he soon came to a courtyard and stepped into it.
The servant pushed away, and on the bed, there was a girl with pale cheeks, her eyes closed tightly, and she was breathless.
"This is..." The voice of the man in black robe was filled with surprise: "Has she had contact with anyone before?"
Oliver asked the servant, shaking his head: "I haven't been out, and I haven't been in contact with outsiders."
"Have you ever come into contact with anything?"
The servant looked embarrassed. He had come into contact with too many things.
The man in black robe added: "Then bring all the things she may have come into contact with and prepare a thousand gold coins."
Oliver did not doubt that he was there and ordered his servants to do it. After a while, more than a dozen servants appeared with items each. Another two soldiers came with a treasure chest.
The man in black robe looked at them one by one, and finally stopped in front of a necklace.
The necklace is crystal clear and does not look like a mundane item.
When Oliver saw this thing, he asked his servant: "Where does this come from?"
"The lady picked it up from the pond..."
But I saw the man in black robe reaching out to pick up the necklace, then walked to the treasure chest and put away his sleeves with a wave of his robe.
"In one day, this curse will dispel itself."
Oliver looked puzzled and couldn't help but said: "Mr. Magician, may I ask what happened to my daughter?"
"It's a curse."
Oliver was shocked and angry: "But Elizabeth has never provoked anyone..."
"It is not she who is cursed, but this thing." The man in black robe showed the necklace: "One thousand gold coins is the reward for lifting the curse."
After saying that, he ignored them and left directly.
The guard asked in a low voice: "Lord City Lord, do you want to send someone to follow him? I always think he is a liar..."
Oliver pondered, and was about to agree when the servant exclaimed: "My lord, the lady has opened her eyes!"
…
The man in black robe walked out of the city lord's mansion and turned into a dark alley not far away.
However, at this moment, a figure suddenly fell from the sky, holding a blunt weapon and smashing it down!
The man in black robe fell down in response, his hood lifted to reveal an unfamiliar face. The attacker smiled coquettishly and put away the folding stool.
After Mu Su waited for so long, someone finally came in unluckily.
Oh please, you don’t think Mu Su is smart enough to pretend to be a magician to cheat money, do you?
