Scene 120: The Market at the Green Tower (1) (Second Update)
When the tree elves saw the pale human opening the door and walking outside, they couldn't help but greet each other curiously and enthusiastically:
"Hello, Nosta."
"The weather is nice today, let's go outside for a walk!"
They chattered, making Nosta feel a little dizzy for a moment. If there were so many beautiful elf girls talking and laughing around him before that, he would have been extremely happy, but now he only felt everything
All strange.
The sunlight that filtered through the shade of the trees seemed to be extremely dazzling. The young man couldn't help but raise his hands to block the dazzling light. He had been shut in the house for a long time and seemed a little unable to adapt to the outside environment.
"What's wrong, are you feeling uncomfortable?" the elf girl asked with concern.
"No," he shook his head and forced a smile. Then he cast his eyes towards the town area below - the residence arranged for him by the tree elf was between three taller ancient trees in the northeast of the town area. The scenery here is very good.
, the elves built a platform here to form a courtyard. In addition to his room, there were also several families of elves living on the platform, and everyone was very kind to him.
But Nosta always felt a sense of alienation. He felt that he didn't belong here.
"What's wrong?" He looked at the town below for a while and asked, "Why is it so noisy?"
"A lot of people from outside are coming, I heard." An elf replied.
"People outside?"
"Same as you, human."
"Not only that, but there are also lizard men." They chattered again: "How about we go and see it together, Nostar?" someone suggested.
The young man was a little excited, but at this moment, an elf guard came up from below. When she saw the young man, she was slightly startled and asked in a nice voice: "Nosta, are you out?"
"Lord Claire," the young man knew this elf guard. She was the one who led him to this courtyard that day: "I heard that people from the outside world came in?"
"Yes, quite a few." The elf guard replied: "Why, do you still want to go out? But generally no one will leave the Green Tower too far. The Druid elders occasionally go to the outside world.
But they won’t take you with them.”
She suddenly realized: "I understand, you want to see if those people are your companions, right?"
Nuosita nodded.
"I heard it was a lord, of you humans."
"Lord?" Nostar asked strangely: "Why do the lords of the human world come here? Don't the druids not deal with them?"
"I don't know," Claire shook her head: "But they seem to be the guests of the elders. There are people from several countries. They seem to be from Cruz and Buga. By the way, there are also people from Eruin like you."
"Eruin?" Nuostar's eyes widened in surprise, and he suddenly became excited: "Claire, can you do me a favor?"
"I know, you want me to take you to see them, right?"
The young man smiled awkwardly.
"What's so good about the outside world?" The elf guard shook his head and sighed: "Okay, come with me."
"Nosta, are you leaving?" someone asked.
The young man thought of his wife who might still be waiting for him to return, and nodded.
…
At the same time, the discussion between Brando and the Druid elders had just come to an end. The young lord told the elder that the most direct way to solve the troubles of the Trade Wind Ring once and for all was to find out the legend.
The original fire preserved in Valhalla.
According to legend, once the fire ignites the black forest, it will gradually turn into a protected place, and all problems will be solved.
However, Brando will have to wait until the first inspection in three days to determine how to do it. According to the description of the Druid Elder, he suspected that the creature attacking the Druids outside the Ring of Trade Winds seemed to be a kind of
Rare monster.
He had dealt with that thing, even though it was only a few times, but he also remembered the opponent's unique attack method.
He was thinking when he suddenly heard Antitina sigh beside him: "It's so beautiful." Brando turned around and saw the noble daughter looking at an elf playing the flute on the suspension bridge not far away, playing music.
The tune is melodious, beautiful and fascinating.
But I don’t know if the girl is talking about the song or this place.
The Green Tower is famous for its beautiful scenery in The Amber Sword. This town is built in mid-air with the magnificent Cloud Wall as the background, and is connected by suspension bridges made of vines. The whole town is filled with a sense of aura.
The flavor of fantasy.
Since leaving the Deadwood Council, he promised Antitina and Akane to visit this peculiar town together. The noble girl seemed to be in high spirits today, and Brando had never seen her look so happy.
The three of them came to a market called 'Centaur's Hoof' located in the urban area. This market was suspended in mid-air, and the entire structure was made of wood and was divided into three floors.
There are several vine suspension bridges connecting the four corners of the market, but the market itself is suspended in the air by magic.
There are many tree elves here, but the main residents are centaurs. The market sells a variety of goods - grains, fabrics, some strange plants, fruits, as well as magic materials and strange ores.
and some magical items contained within.
The Black Forest is rich in products, so the products that can be seen in the market are also all kinds of strange. However, the trading method here is still at the bartering stage, and is not limited to gold and silver.
Because gold and silver only exist here as a kind of magic material.
Brando, Antitina, Funya and Qian first watched a huge gladiatorial battle on the third floor of the market - centaurs have bad tempers and often fight with each other, but there is a special
The venue is for them to vent their anger - in fact, the tree elves occasionally meet for an archery competition, but obviously they are not able to enjoy it today.
After that, they found a bar run by a tree elf and tasted a bit of the local floral dew. It tasted like fruit wine, but it actually had a lot of stamina. Brando quickly realized that he had made a mistake -
Because Antitina and Akane were not players, they took a small sip - and a blush appeared on their faces.
Brando quickly stopped the two ladies, lest they fall into the bar due to excessive drinking, which would be a great fun.
But Antitina obviously wasn't satisfied yet. The noble daughter asked about a specialty of the Green Tower - tree gemstones from the bar owner. The jewelry made from this gemstone looks like emerald, but it is more delicate.
A bit more crystal clear.
The great thing is that the price is not expensive.
So the aristocratic lady was immediately moved. She used the wine to act like a baby, and pestered Brando to take them to have a look.
Brando couldn't help but shook his head when he saw Antitina's blushing face and her petty behavior. He didn't expect that this wealthy lady who usually seemed calm and rational would have such bad wine.
However, Akane, who also seemed to have a slightly red face after drinking, was also a little moved by Antitina's proposal, and Brando knew that he could not refuse.
However, he came to the conclusion that women seem to be naturally incapable of resisting shiny things, which is consistent with certain habits of the dragon tribe.
Fortunately, Brando had the foresight to take out some magic crystals from the five-headed snake lizard's lair. These things are hard currency in this place. For ornaments made of tree gems, a piece of secondary moon crystal can be exchanged for one.
A lot.
So when Brando placed a small piece of flame agate in front of the centaur shop owner, the centaur businessman who had been doing business here for many years knew that he had a big customer.
However, he definitely couldn't make two cents just by selling tree gems. While promoting the ornaments he made himself, the centaur businessman asked the young lord sideways if he needed some mysterious magic items.
Brando is a little funny. Of course he knows this kind of magic shop. You can buy a lot of affordable magic materials in this kind of place. However, it is a bit rare to see the good things in the finished product. It is the first time for me to come to this kind of magic shop.
It's okay for new players in the area, but for a veteran like him, it's a bit dismissive.
"Brando, let him take it out and have a look." Antitina blushed and squinted her eyes, and whispered: "Look, let's see if there is an adult. Did you do well?"
Brando suddenly felt that the aristocratic lady like this was quite cute. He nodded: "Take it out and have a look."
The white centaur suddenly beamed with joy. If he could sell one or two pieces of magic jewelry, he wouldn't have to do business this month.
He immediately took out a pair of rings mysteriously, and then said to Brando: "Sir, these are the magic rings I bought from a witch. Legend has it that they have the magic of love. As long as your two female companions
Wear them and you will fall in love with you forever and never change your heart again.”
"What, what a mess!" Antitina covered Funia's ears and said angrily to the centaur shopkeeper: "Take it back quickly, the lord will not buy such despicable things!"
Brando also smiled and shook his head. Two rings enchanted with charm are called rings with love magic. So wouldn't the Wind Queen ring on his hand become an artifact blessed by the God of Wind?
However, he suddenly thought that the Wind Queen's ring on his hand seemed to be genuine, and was originally an artifact blessed by the God of Wind - even though it was only an incomplete part.
He coughed, shook his head and said, "If this is all you have, I think we should just buy some tree gemstone ornaments."
"Ah, no, no," the centaur shopkeeper immediately stopped them: "Actually, I have another good thing here, you must like it, adults."
Brando was startled: "You know we are from outside?"
The centaur shopkeeper smiled mysteriously: "Hey, I'm not afraid of adult jokes. I've been doing business here for decades, and I know most of the people in the Green Tower."
"I see," Brando replied, "Then your business is really difficult."
The Centaur shopkeeper's face suddenly felt awkward. He realized that his little trick had been seen through by the other party, so he could only sneer and say: "Don't worry, sir, this time it will definitely not be that kind of thing."
"oh?"
"I really bought this thing from a witch. Like you, she came here from outside." The centaur said and took out a box.
Then he opened the box and found a shield-shaped stone piece inside.
When Brando saw this thing, his heart skipped a beat: The stone key!
