Li Chuan put his hand on the mage's stone, and a strange power was instantly transmitted from the stone into his body. With the blessing of this power, he obviously felt that his thinking seemed to become clearer.
This is especially true when thinking about magic-related issues.
However, his strong spirit soon discovered that this blessing of thinking was purely an additional effect of external power.
This also means that once he leaves this world, returns to the main world or goes to other small worlds, the effect of this blessing will disappear.
Because the source of this improvement in thinking power is still in this world.
Just like Wanda and Doctor Strange, their magical power comes from external dimensional demons. If Li Chuan takes them to the small world, they will be isolated from those dimensional demons.
Then they will no longer be able to use the power of magic and become no different from ordinary people.
After thinking about this, his interest in standing stones suddenly dropped by half.
He has never particularly cared about these external blessings. What he really cares about is the kind of power that is not affected by the outside world and can improve his fundamental strength.
So after studying for a while, he left the three standing stones.
A person can only choose one of these standing stones. After changing to the next one, the blessing of the previous one will disappear. The Thief's Stone and the Warrior's Stone are almost useless to him, so he will naturally not choose them.
Walking down from the stone platform where the standing stone was, a clear river appeared in front of him.
This small river is a branch of the beautiful lake he just saw, and it is also the river leading to Hemu Town.
Following the river all the way east, he soon saw a town with a very European medieval style, which reminded him of the Hogsmeade village near Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
The two do feel somewhat similar.
"Stealing a chicken, someone is stealing a chicken!"
"Kill him, let's all kill him together!"
However, just as Li Chuan was about to reach the entrance of the town, he heard several roars suddenly coming from inside, followed by the sound of bells, clanging, and weapons clashing.
Stepping into the town, he saw in front of him a group of villagers armed with sharp weapons and an acquaintance lying on the ground covered in blood, dead and unable to die again.
Yes, he knew the guy who was surrounded and killed by the villagers, or to be more precise, Locke knew him.
It was the catman who smuggled across the border with Locke and was mistaken for the Stormcloak rebels and escorted to Holy Land Town.
"Are the folk customs here so tough?"
After listening for a while, Li Chuan realized that this was a murder caused by a chicken.
The reason was that the cat man who had just entered the village was probably a little hungry, so he secretly killed a chicken raised by a villager named Hilde with a sword. He planned to roast it and eat it, but he was discovered by the villagers and surrounded him.
.
Just because he killed a chicken, all the villagers in the town joined forces to kill him. The death of this cat man was quite humiliating.
Shaking his head, Li Chuan didn't mind his own business and walked into the town, intending to take a walk around it first.
But maybe because of the cat-man stealing chicken incident just now, he was warned.
"Outsiders, no matter where you come from, I have to warn you that private property here is sacred and inviolable. Even if it is a chicken, if you dare to steal it, then we have the right to execute you on the spot!"
One of the villagers, a middle-aged man who was as strong as an ox and wore blacksmith's clothes, walked up to Li Chuan.
Li Chuan nodded when he heard this, but he wasn't angry at all.
Although he felt that stealing a chicken would not lead to death, it was the local law to do as the Romans did, and there was nothing to say.
The main reason is that he is not familiar with the cat man, so there is no need to avenge him.
Seeing Li Chuan smiling and having a very good temper, the middle-aged blacksmith was very satisfied. Before leaving, he gave him some suggestions.
"For outsiders, if you want to find a place to rest, go to the Sleeping Giant Hotel, which provides drinks and rooms. If you want to buy or sell some things, go to the Trading House.
If you want weapons and armor, you can go to my blacksmith shop in Arvo, the prices are very favorable and they are definitely of the highest quality."
Finally, he advertised his blacksmith shop.
There is no way, there are not many people in the town, and most of them want farm tools from him. Only this kind of outside adventurer can be a big customer.
"Thank you, Mr. Arvo."
Li Chuan smiled and nodded, and then started walking around the whole town.
Hemu Town is not large in area and its population is not particularly large. He walked around in just ten minutes.
"Let's change some money first, and then see if we can buy something useful."
Finding the trading house in Hemu Town, Li Chuan opened the door and walked in.
"Well, at least one of us has to do something."
"No, you are not allowed to take risks, you are not allowed to catch thieves, don't make trouble anymore, sister, with your little strength, going to the Huangpu Ancient Tomb is simply a way to die!"
At this time, two brothers and sisters, a man and a woman, were arguing in the store.
However, when he saw Li Chuan coming in, the man's attitude immediately changed, and he put on a classic businessman smile and said enthusiastically:
"Sir, welcome to the store. I am Lucan Valleris, the owner here. No matter what bad rumors you have heard, it doesn't matter. The store is still open as usual."
"I heard your store was robbed?"
Li Chuan asked casually.
While wandering around the town just now, he heard the villagers chatting. Yesterday, a group of robbers took advantage of the darkness to rob the trading house in Hemu Town.
"It doesn't count as robbery. The gang of thieves from the Huangpu Tomb stole an ornament from the store while I was sleeping, a dragon claw made of gold, and then they were scared away by me.
To be honest, if I hadn’t wanted to look after the store, I would have killed them long ago.”
Lukan looked confident.
The sister next to him showed disdain, obviously not thinking that her timid brother could kill those tough bandits.
"Okay, I want to sell something, how much do you think it's worth?"
Li Chuan pretended to take out five rubies that Wanda had helped transform from his pocket and placed them on the table.
Lukan's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw this, he looked at it carefully and then said:
"It's a very good-quality ruby, but to be honest, few people would buy it in this place. How about 300 gold coins for one?"
"Can."
Li Chuan didn't counter-offer. He knew that he would definitely lose 300 yuan for a ruby, but it didn't matter. The rubies in his monthly reading world had already piled up in a hill, so he didn't care about that at all.
"What do you have for sale here?"
"We have everything, food, drink, weapons, accessories, etc."
Lukan quickly got out of the way and introduced the various items on the counter behind him to Li Chuan one by one.
