Chapter 150 Geniuses Are Always Weird

"Ha, no matter what anybody says, I think Jeffries is the best city right now."

In the tavern, John the Dwarf looked at the wine machine that automatically refilled his drinks, and said while shaking his beard.

After leaving Delport, they quickened their pace, and it didn't take long to reach Jeffries.

This city composed of mechanical and magic glyphs is full of surprises and novelties for those who have never been here, as if they have arrived in another world.

"But you will say that wherever there is wine." Jill still sat in the corner and stuck out her snake-like tongue.

Lily held a magic book and looked at it. She was already familiar with her teammates.

Lorna also ordered a glass of wine and sat at the table. She has been a little silent for the past few days, and rarely comes to Chu Chu to say anything. This may be a good sign.

As for Mann, he was showing Chu Chu to cast a spell on a silver coin, making it levitate.

I heard that this is the floating technique he learned from Lily, but when he saw him blushing at first, he fiddled with the silver coin for a long time, but he didn't see any movement of the silver coin.

They will stay in this tavern for a period of time. This is an arrangement of the Merchant Association. All the merchants involved in this transaction contact Mr. Marcher who bought the magic spar through this method.

The merchant waits in this tavern, and Machel will send his servants to buy the goods.

Mann didn't know much about Marchel, and it should be said that most of the businessmen involved in this transaction didn't know much either.I just heard that he used to be a master of glyphs, and even served as a consultant to the Academy of Magic, but the glyphs he studied were very weird, usually obscure glyphs that not many people could understand.

Moreover, he had no interest in doing things like teaching students, which led to him being dismissed from the Magic Academy not long after, and he has been living in seclusion in this Jeffries city ever since.

Seeing that Mann fiddled with the silver coin for a long time but failed to float the silver coin, Chu Chu casually raised his hand at the silver coin.

The next moment, the silver coin was lifted into the air.

Primordial Evil can be released from her body at will and compose or move things without being seen if she chooses.

So in the eyes of others, Chu just waved her hand, and the silver coin floated out of thin air, just like she had cast a floating spell at will.

This made the members of the Silver Sword Team look over in surprise. Although Levitation is just a simple low-level spell, it is very difficult to cast it at will without chanting the spell. At least Lily can't do it. It turns out that her magic power is not enough to support her to directly use magic power to communicate with magic.

To do this, at least the level of an advanced magician is required, and advanced magicians are rare in both the Adventurer's Guild and the Academy of Magic.

A high-level magician is a very important resource in the Adventurer's Guild, and the price of hiring her will definitely not be less than a few gold coins. In the Magic Academy, a high-level magician is already enough to work as a teacher.

So when they released the "magic" without chanting the spell, the members of the Silver Sword were a little scared. They knew that Chu was a practitioner, but this was the first time they had seen Chu.

But then, they thought that Chu might be from the Hiskama family, and they were relieved.If the members of that family were not strong enough, how could they guard that barren land.

One must know that the frontier soldiers led by the Hiskama family are the strongest army in the empire, so the strength of their family can be imagined.

If they had some doubts at first, now they are more sure that they came from that family in the first place.

As for why Chu left Hiskama, this was left to their guesses. It might be because of going out on business, traveling, or even running away from home, who knows.

Although the Hiskama family had made an oath to station in the west, it was just that the patriarch could not leave.

Mann was different from the members of the Silver Sword team. He was not surprised by Chu's actions. After all, after seeing the battle with Hiskama, floating a silver coin was really just a trivial matter.

As a summoner, he naturally knew how Chu did it, anyway, it definitely couldn't be magic.

"Ah." He lay down on the table dejectedly, rubbing his hair.

"I've obviously worked hard."

"I saw you sleeping with a magic book a few days ago."

Chu mercilessly exposed Mann's lies.

"Mann." Lily looked at Mann with her mouth puffed up. She didn't lend the book to Mann for him to hug and sleep.

"Um." Mann scratched his cheek in embarrassment, and said with a wry smile, "It's just that I was too tired that day."

While several people were chatting at the table, a figure walked in from the door of the tavern.The reason why it is said to be a figure is because the thing that came in is indeed not a person.

It was a humanoid machine, which was quite exquisitely made, with fine magic lines on its body, and its hands and feet were not much different from real humans, except that it had no skin, and what was exposed were cold machines and complex carvings.A large magic spar is inlaid in the center of its back, providing the magic power to support its movements.

The arrival of this humanoid machine made the merchants in the tavern who were waiting for Marchel's news with Mann look surprised. They had never seen the application of this magic glyph.

They have reason to be surprised, because this is indeed a technology that has not been announced yet. This is a glyph developed by Marchel alone, and so far, he should be the only one who has mastered it.

It is undeniable that he is indeed a genius for magic glyphs.He even dared to expose his unique glyphs to the outside world, and he didn't worry about others learning, because most sculptors couldn't understand his glyphs at all.

"Thank you for coming from afar, and please allow me to extend my heartfelt greetings to you on behalf of my host Machel. Because there are a lot of guests recently, we have not entertained you well, and I am really sorry for keeping you waiting for a long time. "

The glyphs on the humanoid machine lighted up slightly, and it bowed down and performed an elegant etiquette, just like a real noble servant.

From its words, it can be heard that several groups of businessmen have already been here, and there is no way to do this. Who told Ma Qier to release the news that there are unlimited purchases.

"Oh, it doesn't matter, we didn't wait long."

A middle-aged man dressed as a businessman said aloud, expressing that he didn't care.

"But are all Mr. Marcher's servants like you?"

He looked at this humanoid machine with light in his eyes. Obviously, he was more interested in this new type of carving product, which might be a business.

But the humanoid machine didn't answer his question, it just turned around and said.

"Then, I will now take you to my master, Mr. Marcher."

The businessman frowned, obviously dissatisfied with the feeling of being ignored, but he soon discovered the reason.

This humanoid machine can only operate according to the prescribed method. It does not have its own intelligence and consciousness, so it cannot answer his questions.
