$1050 Wizard's House 2
"Such a service can be provided here?" Raymond was very interested in what the old steward said, and he asked immediately.
The smiling old steward hurriedly introduced. "It is not allowed in Red Rock Castle. But as long as you go to medium and large cities such as Shadow City, Dark Wing City, and Storm City, you only need to pay 500 medium magic stones to choose to go to the Golan Highlands and the Land of the Tower in the surface world..."
Such a cheap price surprised Raymond. "So cheap? But why do you have to go to these cities?"
The old steward's expression became more respectful, and his tone was very sincere. "The fixed teleportation array to the surface plane is set up in these cities. If you want to set off from here, the cost of setting up the array is a hundred times more. What's more, this is Red Rock Castle to resist the invasion of the abyss plane. The city lord, Lord Combas, has long ordered that such a teleportation array is not allowed to be set up..."
After listening, Raymond thought about it for a while and understood the reason.
As for Red Rock Castle, if a long-distance large-scale teleportation array is set up here, it will inevitably cause a slow and continuous change in the surrounding free energy. Although it may not be reflected in a short time, if this large-scale teleportation array is activated for a long time, if it causes the area overlapping with the Abyss Plane to continue to expand, it seems that no one can afford the responsibility.
The resources required to set up a long-distance teleportation array alone are very huge, so after learning that there are ready-made teleportation arrays available in some cities, Raymond relaxed and chatted casually with the talkative old steward, and also selected some of the resources currently available here. Finally, after negotiating the exchange ratio of crystal stones and magic stones, he directly paid the full amount with crystal stones.
Red Rock Castle is not far from the Abyss Plane. Moreover, this wizard's home shop also has a cooperative relationship with the Abyss Human Alliance, so there are many precious resources produced in the Abyss in this shop. However, since the price of the goods from the Abyss here is not satisfactory to Raymond, he has no interest in selling the resources brought from the Abyss.
The humorous and respectful old steward made Raymond feel much better, while Scar and the dark elf Freya, who stood behind and witnessed the spring process, were shocked again. [
Thousands of medium-sized crystals were thrown by Raymond casually, and the two looked at each other but pursed their lips tightly, not daring to speak.
But just as Raymond was waiting for the goods he had selected to be delivered, two people came up from the stairs facing Raymond, which made him stand up suddenly with a warning!
The middle-aged man in front of him was a little fat and wore an ordinary gray wizard robe. He was obviously in a high position for a long time, and there was a hint of arrogance in his expression.
Following behind him was a woman with delicate features and lively eyes. After noticing that Raymond was looking at her, she immediately shifted her sight and stepped back half a step, hiding behind the man in front again.
The old steward, who had his back to the stairs, stood up quickly when he saw Raymond stand up. After seeing the person clearly, he quickly bowed and saluted. "Lord City Lord! Welcome!"
Raymond, whose pupils shrank slightly, felt a little strange, and suddenly felt a sense of familiarity in his heart.
But the city lord Combas, who ignored the old steward, walked over with a smile and bowed slightly to Raymond. "Haha... I heard that a high-level wizard was coming today, but it was a pity that we couldn't meet him at the first time, so I came uninvited. I hope you will forgive me..."
Although the laughter was hearty. The tone was also very polite, but there was no smile in the eyes of the city lord Combas, and before he came to the old steward, he glared at him, causing the old steward to immediately step aside and give up the original position.
The city lord Combas, who sat down, stopped talking, while Raymond, who was confused, stared at the woman standing behind him. Although he was sure that he had never met her in any occasion before, the faint warning in his feeling made him very puzzled.
But when he found that Raymond had not sat down, the city lord Combas frowned and slapped his palm on the table. Although the force was not strong, it was enough to make the sound. It seemed to be a reminder. "Lord Raymond, although you claim to have strayed into the abyss plane, as the city lord of this city, there are still some questions that you need to explain..."
Raymond's face darkened after hearing the voice, but he immediately understood the reason for the warning before, and immediately sneered at the woman standing behind the city lord Combas with her eyes evading. "You were the one who was peeping before!"
The woman standing sideways behind the city lord Combas stiffened. The angry city lord Combas suddenly stood up. "Lord Raymond!"
Turning his gaze to look directly at the city lord Combas, Raymond asked coldly. "Are you interrogating me?"
"You! Li!"
The furious city lord Combas's momentum suddenly rose, and the force field pressure he released rushed straight over, as if he wanted to overwhelm Raymond with momentum. [
Raymond frowned and took a deep breath. The force field protection he released protected Scar and the dark elf Freya behind him. And when he noticed that the aftermath of the force field pressure was about to erode the old steward, he raised his hand and pulled the old steward aside.
But even if Raymond only acted on the defensive, the small table between the two of them could not withstand such a violent impact. In an instant, it twisted, deformed and completely shattered.
Seeing this, City Lord Kangbas let out a sigh, and immediately retreated to close the distance between the two sides, his expression full of surprise and disbelief.
But in this moment, Raymond had already figured out something, but he was still deeply confused in his heart, so he stared into the eyes of City Lord Kang Bas and spoke word by word. "Peeping in the dark can be regarded as provoking me personally, but demonstrating behind the scenes is actually a courtesy! Could it be said that as the city lord of this red rock castle, I can do whatever I want!"
City Lord Kangbas, who turned down his face and suppressed his previous surprised expression, sneered. "It is our duty, even if we are rude, it is excusable!"
Raymond who snorted did not respond, but the woman who followed City Lord Kang Bas finally stood beside him, bowed deeply to Raymond and said. "I am Sara, the astrologer of the Great Council. I am deeply sorry for your spying before. However, this kind of spying is a necessary measure for Red Rock Castle to deal with powerful foreigners. It is only implemented with the approval of the Great Council. …”
Raymond, who was stunned for a moment, was very suspicious. "Approved by the Grand Council? How could the Grand Council approve such a ridiculous measure!"
"Yes, sir! Because your strength is far greater than mine, it took a lot of time to successfully obtain relatively true information when peeking, so, so... I'm really sorry..."
With an apologetic face and a kind of panic in her eyes, Sarah, the astrologer, gave people a soft and simple feeling, with a deep apology in her clear eyes. .
Raymond, who was dubious, couldn't tell whether what she said was true for a while, but the old steward who had been pulled aside by him to avoid the impact of the force field spoke up in time to help. "My lord, the Grand Council promulgated this regulation six years ago, and the area in which it is implemented is limited to a few war zones..."
But before the kind-hearted old steward could finish his words, the very angry City Lord Kangbas snorted coldly and roared arrogantly. "Lord Raymond! You haven't answered the previous question. This is the power that I, as the Lord of Red Rock Castle, can and must execute!"
"Power? You planted an informant in Sir Michaels's mansion and made disrespectful remarks after meeting. Do you think that a city lord can do whatever you want! Do you want to give it a try?"
The anger in his chest finally broke out. Raymond sneered and said this, and his momentum rose sharply. It was originally just the protective force field luster of Chenxi level strength, but it immediately surpassed the seventh level and directly reached the eighth level wizard. What color it can have!
