Just when the young man wanted to check other objects in the divination hall, a shadow suddenly appeared in his sight. Because he was moving too fast, he could only see the blurry outline of the thing.
Of course this doesn't bother him.
Static gaze, on!
When the boy concentrated his attention, the world in his eyes began to slow down. Although this slowing down time was the same for him, it was still helpful for him to analyze the current situation so that he could make the most correct judgment.
Those things are...boots?
At this time, a pair of shiny black leather boots were hitting the young man's face with a "whooshing" sound, and if you look closely, the soles of the shoes seemed to be made of thickened black horns.
This kind of sole has a heightening effect and is comfortable to wear. It is deeply loved by young men and women who pursue body proportions.
Of course these are not the point.
The point is: the sole is not only thick but also hard, and the hardness is amazing.
It is said that the place of origin of this shoe sole is also rich in iron wolf fruit. The flesh of this strange fruit is very astringent, but the flesh in the huge core of the iron wolf fruit is very delicious. It is a common fruit in Noah.
It's just that the core shell of the iron wolf fruit is very hard. It takes a long time to split it with a kitchen knife, and the blade is easy to curl. This prevents people from tasting the core meat inside. The locals use black horns as hammers to crack the core.
The kernel meat is dried and sold.
Later, they thought it was inefficient to just use a hammer, so the local fruit farmers simply changed the soles of their black leather boots from regular rubber to black horns. When working, they could crush an iron wolf core with one foot to improve their work.
Efficiency is the origin of this black heightening leather boots.
In other words, if a person wearing these shoes jumped from the second floor and stepped on your face on the first floor, he would be disfigured at least, or... die directly at worst.
"Well!"
The boy quickly fell back to the ground, and then immediately rolled to the side. Although rolling on the dusty ground was extremely embarrassing, facing the threat of death, the boy had no choice.
But after the young man avoided it, there was no loud noise like "Boom!" as he imagined, only the soft "ta-ta-da" sound of leather boots hitting the ground.
"Oh! You little thief, you are very skilled!"
A mature female voice suddenly sounded in his ears, which made the young man stunned. When he took a closer look, he found a pair of green eyes in front of him, squinting at him playfully.
The mysterious woman in front of the boy looked about twenty years old, wearing a black robe, with soft blond hair scattered on her shoulders. She bent down, stroking her lips with her index finger, and her green eyes looked back and forth in her narrow eye sockets.
Turn to look at the boy on the ground.
This was a face he had never seen before. The young man subconsciously asked: "Who are you?"
"Ah?! How did you say what I wanted to say?"
The boy's question seemed to surprise her. The woman raised her hand to smooth the long hair that fell in front of her forehead, and said to herself:
"Hmm? Is it possible that you can also read minds? Trouble! Is the thief so troublesome now?"
"Eh? Could it be that you are... the owner of this store?"
The moment the woman smoothed her long hair, an ear with two earrings was exposed. These earrings seemed to be carved from amber, and there were many ancient runes like tadpoles engraved on them. The young man could guess the earrings when he saw them.
The identity of this woman.
This kind of ancient jewelry is not worn by ordinary women. It is said that wizards will collect and wear some magical jewelry with special effects to enhance their own abilities. And the owner of this divination parlor is naturally a wizard.
Then he made contact with the person in front of him.
And to be precise, the woman in front of me is not a human, but an elf!
"Ah? Don't you know me? I, Mayena Sisley, the great mystic, the light of the crystal, don't you know?"
Mayena straightened up, and the pair of pointed and long ears under her blond hair added a bit of beauty to her already delicate face.
"Um...I don't know."
The young man really didn't know. He had never heard of those names, let alone the female elf in front of him.
"Alas! Sure enough, humans are all so ignorant. Even an outstanding high elf like me, Moena Sisley, has never heard of it."
The female elf lowered her head and looked down at the young man on the ground, feeling very shocked and sad at the young man's ignorance.
The young man asked in surprise: "Are you a high elf?"
"Hmm? Don't you recognize my clan?"
"Uh-huh."
Although the other party's attitude was arrogant, the young man didn't feel any displeasure in his heart.
Maybe it's because this arrogance has been integrated into the blood of the female elf in front of him. The natural arrogance has given the elves a kind of nobility like gods.
High elves are also called magic elves or light elves. Almost all high elves have excellent magic talents, and high elves are also the most powerful branch of the elves. The elves' holy land, Ancestral Spirit Island, is controlled by high elves.
.
The elves have a large number of branch races, such as light elves, night elves, rock and earth elves, searing elves, forest elves, etc.
At first, the various elven tribes operated independently. Although there was an ancient elf king recognized by each tribe, after the Guangwu Palace Rebellion, the line of ancient elf kings was extinct. After that, the light elves dominated the order of the elf world and controlled the light of the elf world.
The elves call themselves high elves, divide other elves into ordinary elves and low-level elves, and control the core decision-making organs of the elves such as the Ten Elders Council and the Elf King's Court.
Of course, no matter how special the high elves are, they, like other elves, generally do not appear outside their own territory, and even fewer go to the human world. This is the first time for the boy to see real high elves.
Mayena sighed: "Hey! Little thief, your ignorance made you make mistakes, I forgive you."
"ha?"
The young man had a question mark on his face, he couldn't figure out what the other person was talking about.
"You are exempt from death, but you must repent by serving me for free for fifty years."
After saying that, Moena squatted down, reached out and patted the young man's shoulder gently and said:
"Be my servant well, little thief."
"Hey, hey! What the hell! You saw clearly."
After realizing the seriousness of the problem, the boy quickly shouted:
"I'm not a thief! I'm here to buy something! I'm a customer! I'm a guest! Can you wear glasses because you are so short-sighted?"
"Eh? You actually know that I am also a 'scholar who devotes his vision'. You are really interesting, little thief."
The female elf, who had been squinting her eyes, took out a pair of silver-rimmed glasses from the small bag at her waist and placed them on the bridge of her nose.
Through the lenses, the haziness in her eyes disappeared, and her eyes became much more lively than before.
The boy could tell that the other person was severely short-sighted, thanks to the fact that he was also short-sighted in another world, and he could tell by looking at some signs. People with high myopia can't see clearly without their glasses.
I'm afraid from the beginning to now, he is just a mosaic in the eyes of this female elf who calls herself Mayena, right?
"Hmm, is he a human with black hair and black eyes? A very rare individual. You didn't take my things. I think you are indeed not a thief."
"I'll tell you! And why can't I move now?"
"Ah...I cast a binding spell on your body. Of course you can't move a finger now."
Mayena's words gave the boy a chill in his heart. He who was always vigilant actually fell into the trap without knowing it.
Could it be that mages are such terrifying beings?
How on earth can a person without magic fight the mages?
"Okay, you can move now."
As soon as Mayena clapped her hands, the boy suddenly felt his body relax. After untying the restraints, the boy immediately stood up and jumped back to distance himself from the female elf in front of him.
"Hmm, you don't have to be so afraid of me?"
As Mayena spoke, she turned around and walked towards the counter filled with ancient books, not minding exposing her back to the boy.
wrong!
The young man realized the problem. He had seen human mages and how they cast spells.
But a normal mage has to chant a spell to cast a spell, but this female elf doesn't actually have this process. How did she do it?
Precisely because he could not understand the abilities of this female elf, the young man stared at her warily to prevent himself from being attacked again.
"Although I am indeed strong, I can also be reasonable and will not bully others casually. Who makes me so kind?"
He brags about himself without blushing, and is so skilled that he doesn't feel stiff at all. Maybe this can be regarded as some kind of talent.
The arrogant female elf walked leisurely to the armchair behind the counter, raised the tall pointed hat on the seat with both hands, and sat on the soft plush cushion.
hat on her own head.
At this time, Mayena's appearance suddenly became more formal. At least this guy in a robe and hat was indeed an enigmatic young female mage on the surface.
Of course, the youth of elves and the youth of humans are not the same concepts. You must know that elves who look only ten or twenty years old may actually be older than your ancestors.
"Okay, distinguished guest, what do you want to buy?"
Mayena's sudden 180-degree change of attitude really made the young man a little confused. Thinking that the other party should have no reason to be disadvantageous to him now, he temporarily put down his guard and looked at the female shopkeeper who was lazily leaning on the armchair.
Walked over.
"I want to test properties."
Although there was an episode before, the young man did not forget what he was here to do.
"Huh? This is a divination hall? Why did you come to me to test your attributes?"
"Lan Ji recommended me to come here. She said you can test it here."
After saying that, the young man handed the token given by Lan Ji to Mayena.
"Ah, this is indeed Xiaolanji's thing. Are you Xiaolanji's new dish?"
"No, it's just acquaintance."
"Is it just 'acquaintance'? Forget it! I won't gossip."
Mayena thought for a while, tapped her round nails on the armrest, and then said:
"Since you made a special trip to see me and are the first customer of my store in five years, I will do this test for you for free!"
"Then thank you, please."
If someone is willing to help, you should still say polite words.
But how on earth did this store continue to open without customers for five years?
The young man felt that he was exhausted from complaining. This neurotic female shop owner had reached the point where she subconsciously judged people who entered the shop as thieves. So what was the point of opening this shop for her?
"Ha, it's quick and easy to measure attributes. It doesn't take much trouble. But do you want to measure other things by the way?"
"What else?"
"for example......"
Mayena stood up from her seat with a long voice. The slim female elf approached the young man across the counter. The young man subconsciously took a small step back, and she finally stopped only one foot away from the two of them.
.
The female elf lying on the desk looked intently at the young man's dark pupils and said with a subtle expression:
