Chapter 413 Chapter 416 The Beard Problem

Transmission Gate sent Dagon and Shiloh to the Twin Towers Nearby, this is the base camp of the Mages Association, and it is also the most fanatical place for the idea of "elf supremacy". As a Jiangu clansman, Dagon still finds it difficult to move in the city despite wearing clothes representing "minion citizens" and even though the elves he follows have "high mage" uniforms to show his identity.

However, if they want to enter Myniris safely and securely, they will need some appropriate attire. The Asneriel family has a foothold here, and a local steward with a few servants looks after the property here. There are all kinds of changes of clothes here, and there is a four-seater carriage in the garage of quality and shape suitable for aristocratic travel. Dagon once drove a dog sled for Shiloh, and now he's a coachman again.

Taking food, water, and a few elven weapons, the two refused to follow all servants and drove out of the city in the carriage. Shi Luoai changed her dress and identity back. She went to the Mage Association to buy a few bottles of energy potions and borrowed two incantation books. As a high-ranking member of the association, such behavior is not uncommon. This way, the city guards in Myris will not be suspicious.

"I heard that there has been a lot of confusion between the various families and the royal family in Myris recently, and the council is very unstable. The Spirit King has intensified its investigations, mainly to prevent any harassment of the various families.

The battle strength that Myris is resident in." Shiloh said: "Dagon, don't show the ability to have superb martial skills, but it doesn't matter if you have more strength and a grumpy temper."

"Understood. Silly and impulsive dwarves fit the elf's imagination best."

"That's definitely not my imagination." Shiroai said, "I have to admit, the elf made a bad start... part of it. The elves made a bad start by creating this kind of idea and creating an atmosphere suitable for its growth. But now, the people who discriminate against the Jiangu the most are human beings. The elves did not bring good things to human beings, but let such inferior ideas Thriving in human society. Alas...hey, someone is coming, don't talk, Dagon."

A brightly dressed, bold human walked up to the carriage, looking at the car through the window. Shiloh tries to get Dagon to participate while promoting the upcoming "Monster Fight".

"Miss Elf, may I ask your dwarf servant to borrow it? It only takes a day for this dwarf to gain honor and money. Of course, since your time is wasted, we I will also give you corresponding compensation, which is quite good."

"Remove from my field of vision, I have no interest in your business." Shiroai waved his hand and said: "Here There are two gold coins. You send me out of town, don't let anyone bother me again, the gold coin is yours."

"No problem, noble lady elf!" The human put his finger in In his mouth, he whistled twice, and three other people ran over. They held ropes and shackles in their hands and looked "friendly and kind".

The man dressed in fancy clothes said: "escort out of the city, don't let idlers disturb. One gold coin, let's share it equally!"

The outsourcing business is just like this. Shiroai was purified, and human beings were given gold coins. Only Dagon felt very dissatisfied. Two gold coins, that's a lot of money, enough for him to eat for more than a month in dry food. In order to pay four gold coins so that there are no advertising sales on the way out of the city, Xi Luoai is too extravagant.

But when he saw the two gold coins, the resentment in his heart was much less. The gold coin looks small and thin. The Jiangu family's intuition for mineral metals makes him very unconvinced of the real value inside. Dagon asked about it when he got out of the city and onto the intercity road.

"Those are called citizen gold coins, and they were issued a year after you were arrested. Spirit King did not use elf script and anti-counterfeiting rune on it, and used common language against all opinions. One thousand citizen gold coin can directly buy one citizen point, so it is called citizen gold coin." Shiloai said: "That gold coin is not worth much, but it is quite suitable for reward."

"How can it be exchanged with the elf's royal gold coin?" Dagon asked: "Is it becoming more and more worthless?"

Shiloai raised his eyebrows and said: "Eh? at first about It is ten to one, and it is difficult to exchange 20 citizen gold coins for royal gold coins. If it is the big gold coins of your Jiangu family, it will be even more troublesome to exchange, almost fifty, but not necessarily. But, how do you know?"

"The Spirit King room is out of money." Dagon said: "I had to find work for myself in prison, so I probably counted how many planes in the Ascension Plan. The construction cost of the empty city is quite astounding. Even with the wealth of the elves, it is difficult to support it. Moreover, wealth is not based on the gold in the warehouse, but on productivity."

"Wealth does not What are you looking at gold?" Shirouai couldn't understand. She leaned out of the car window and tried to get closer to Dagon, her head sideways listening to him.

"Gold can buy labor, but it will not create labor. Elves can use gold to promote the construction of flying cities, but they cannot create laborers that can meet the engineering skills requirements. The more urgent the ascension plan is to advance , the more unbalanced the relationship between cost and results is, the more pressure on the treasury will increase." Dagon said: "In fact, when the Spirit King canceled the action of attacking the Black Tower of Terrorism, he should have run out of money, or in terms of turnover. Encountered considerable difficulties."

"Oh..." Shirouai heard a bit of understanding, but she was very interested in the black tower of Dreads. "Speaking of the black tower, many families now want to hold the Spirit King responsible for leadership. If he hadn't canceled the attack on the black tower, perhaps the monsters would never have had the chance to get out."

"Spirit King" The Spirit King has a lot of responsibility, but the way the spirits do..." Dagon said: "Xiloai, it's not good to say it. Even if the black tower was knocked down at that time, the monsters would break through the infinite labyrinth and come to the ground sooner or later. There are few alliances of five races. After the Jiangu clan, it will not become an alliance of four clans, but a mess of sand. The elves have just been backlashed in advance, but the backlash has just begun."

"It has just begun? I think the loss is already heavy enough. So many elves fell to their death on the flying city, and less than one-twentieth of the mages of the association returned, so they could only urgently promote some apprentices to fill the front. There are only seven people. The other six are dying of old age. In fact, it's just me. They recently discussed that Dongdong should be promoted to the top, which was never imagined before."

"Professor Is he alright?"

Hiroai frowned and said, "After you were locked up, we didn't communicate much, and when I met him in Academy, he ignored me. , often staring. I know he blames me for not saving you, I can understand, but I won't wink because of this... He's a little old, and the dwarf's lifespan is almost that old, and the rest are It's okay."

"I want him to know I'm out," Dagon said.

"Yes, but you must go to Chiling City first to ensure your own safety." Shiroai said: "Recently, the Spirit King is very worried about safety, so there is no flight near Myris. Flying spells will be detected by the wizards of the guild. Although I am not afraid of their questioning, unless you have the ability to dress up as a elf, there is no way to explain your problem."

"I have practiced good enough patience. , this time can still afford it." Dagon reached for the beard and squeezed lightly on the ring. Under the action of the "cloud" word rune, the beard changes color, and it becomes like gold instead of pure gold.

Siloai smiled lightly when she saw it, something Dagon would never have done before. It seems that the prison has indeed changed him, becoming more mature and more flexible. "Actually, your appearance is already very camouflaged. Unless you are very familiar with people, you will not think of you at all. I never thought that hairstyles have such a big impact on the appearance of the Jiangu people... I was thinking, if you shave at the same time What would it look like without a beard and hair? Would it look like an egg?"

"No, Jiangu's skin is not so smooth, probably like a mushroom and potato. Oh, that's how my mother described it. The word my dad used. Jiangu men only shave their beard when they get married and give it to their lover. The other person will stick the beard on his face and carry it for a lifetime. So you want to see me shave it off What kind of thing, then you have to agree to marry me."

Hiroai's head was buzzing, probably from the wind - she made excuses for herself. "Why does it have to be me? You can shave your beard when you marry someone else, don't you let me see?"

"I'll take care of you." Dagon said, "I thought a lot in the cell—there Time Freeze, makes people think involuntarily. After seeing the spectacle of circles and balls, Shiloh, I can't promise to be by your side forever, but as long as you still like me, then I just want to be with you Together forever."

"Your lifespan is very short, so you are going to spend your whole life to give me a short time?" Shiloai said: "You can think about it, even if you die of old age , I'm not necessarily middle-aged."

"It sounds like I'm not at a disadvantage?" Dagon suddenly said with a smile: "Xiloai, think about it, your heart is in chaos."

"I mean, after you die, I might fall in love with someone else. Can you accept that?"

Dagon waved his hand and said, "That's easy. I Being good to you makes you feel that others are not worth it, so the problem will not be solved? Actually, if you think about it carefully, I feel sorry for you, and let you live in nostalgia for me for a long time...”

“ I haven't promised you yet!" Shiloai snorted hard and said, "I'll make it clear to you first, I won't stick a beard on my face! No matter how much I like you, I can't let me live with a beard all my life! Oli Blessings My beard will not fall off until I die - terrifying! With that many beards I'd want to kill myself every day I look in the mirror!"

"My mom didn't Glue the beard to the chin, and I don't really like Jiangu women with big beards. It's probably my quirk, I don't want to be with my hu..."

"Wait, what did you say? What?" Shiloh interrupted Dagon's words, raised half of her eyebrows, and said with a questioning tone: "I have seen your mother, she is wearing your father's beard! I think she also takes care of those beards very carefully.

"Oh, I'm not talking about Corona, but my biological mother, Esther Labo." Dagon said, "I heard from the elders of the Wind Chaser that she and my biological father Iger When Neil got married, he didn't stick his beard on his chin, but made it into a small braid and hung down from his cheek, which is probably where it was."

Hiroai leaned hard to see clearly I looked at the area that Dagon had drawn in front of the ear, thought about it carefully, and then nodded: "Then I can accept it. By the way, what eccentricity did you just say?"

"It doesn't matter anymore. !" Dagon laughed heartily, saying, "Hiroai, I'm so happy now!"

"hmph!" Shirouai covered her face and retreated into the carriage.
