Chapter 1632 Asking for Money and Checking Household Registration
Xia Duo can guarantee that the elf waiter in front of him has definitely been trained by human profiteers, otherwise he would never have said such shameless words.
No one would write their spellcasting level on their face, and the sky blue robe that Sha Duo was wearing at the moment was just an ordinary item that he purchased from the Arcane Federation.
The human mage wearing such a robe is called "Archmage". If it were not a human, how could the elves think of it on their own with their almost naturally proud face?
Xia Duo has also been to many projection planes in the past, and has stayed in elven societies of different eras and countries, but he has never encountered a scene like today that almost broke his three views.
For a while, he didn't know whether such changes in elves were good or bad for humans.
On the one hand, it is easier for such "secular" elves to understand and even empathize with humans, but on the other hand, given the natural longevity advantage of the elves as a race, once secularized, it may become an unimaginable competitive nightmare for humans.
Xia Duo was thinking wildly, but subconsciously ignored the elf waiter's price of one hundred gold coins a day, and followed him to book a room.
When he came back to his senses, Xia Duo couldn't help but smile bitterly. The other party was really too enthusiastic. Even though he knew it was a trap for consumption ideas, he couldn't help but step in.
But fortunately, he is still able to pay for all these services.
It's just that if a wild mage who actually came to play was put through this whole process, it would probably cast a shadow on Everriska for the rest of his life.
Of course, it's also possible to do the opposite and regard this place as paradise - a paradise for consumerism.
…
After completing the check-in procedures, Xia Duo got the key to the "Quiet Bamboo Courtyard" suite, with a bright magical aura, and it was obviously a magic item.
The elf waiter did not leave after Xia Duo opened the room. Instead, he served to the end, took Xia Duo to the suite, and introduced in detail the main facilities of the "three bedrooms, one living room and one courtyard".
After that, tea and snacks were thoughtfully delivered. Of course, this part is also charged.
After the messenger left, Xia Duo took a few sips and found that they were just ordinary tea drinks and snacks, but he remembered 150 gold coins, which was more expensive than a day's house price. If this was in Netheril, 150 gold coins could be given to him. To vomit.
Thinking about it now, he might have been a little more conservative when checking in. The 1,000 gold coins he had saved in advance would probably be deducted by various expenses in a few days!
I just came to Everesca, and I haven't done anything yet. I went there for 250 gold coins. If you include the 4,000 gold coins for the round trip portal, it would be even more.
I don’t know who stipulated that the permanent teleportation gate should also be charged according to the standard of the teleportation array. It simply fell into the eyes of money!
“It’s not easy to travel abroad!”
Xia Duo leaned on the bench in the middle courtyard of the "Quiet Bamboo Garden", looked at the blue sky simulated by the magic above, sighed, and then took out the Mystery Lock authority certificate that Iolum had given him before.
The area covered by the Mystic Lock was indeed different from other places. As soon as Xia Duo took out the blue gem, he immediately noticed the change in the Mystic Lock.
More information about Everesca’s Mystery Lock was revealed in front of him——
The myth lock that Iolum gave him has extremely high authority, almost second only to the master authority obtained by Netheril. In addition to some regular operations, he can even control the myth lock to create an invisible fog area. Do whatever you want.
In theory, summoning demons is possible.
Of course, in reality, if Shado really does this, he will be immediately discovered by higher authority, but normal casting will not be affected, and it will not be monitored by Everriska's patrol team.
After some inspections, Shado found that Netheril and other five countries had done nothing to control the Mystic Lock of Evriska. They almost divided the Mystic Lock authority into six, independent of each other.
Perhaps the Evereska Council of Elders has less authority than he does!
…
After groping alone for a while, the light in the courtyard gradually dimmed, and then bright but very soft lights lit up on the ground, reflecting the green bamboos in the courtyard, which was quite interesting.
At this moment, a series of rapid but not anxious and rhythmic wind chimes suddenly came to mind at the door. Sha Duo then received a message from the room "key"——
It was dinner time, and the elf waiter who had served him before was picking him up outside the door to take him to the restaurant.
"I can't eat the King's meal even if my authority is increased!"
Xia Duo sighed, then stood up, straightened his clothes, and walked towards the door. As soon as the door opened, the elf immediately saluted respectfully, "Guest, dinner is ready, please come with me."
Xia Duo muttered "money" silently and motioned for the other party to lead the way.
…
When they arrived at the restaurant, Xia Duo found that besides him, there were actually two humans sitting at the same table. They seemed to be together.
Of course, the other person was the same as the human beings Sha Duo had met on the road before. The eyes of the two parties immediately touched each other, and Sha Duo saw a vigilant and inquiring look in the other person's eyes.
"hehe."
Xia Duo didn't care, he just touched the magic net slightly and retrieved the registration information of the two people after entering the country from the mystery lock——
One is called "Boli" and the other is called "Siger". Both of them are from the Davor Chamber of Commerce and came to Evereska to purchase acorn wine.
Of course, this is only the registration information on the surface. The two people may have concealed something, and their identities may even be fake.
But since they have been marked and recorded by Misuo, if they come here next time and register with a different identity and purpose, Misuo will issue a warning.
Xia Duo was more inclined to believe that those two people were not lying.
During the meal, in order to familiarize himself with the operation of the mystery lock, he continued to inquire about the movements of the two people after they arrived at Evereska. There was indeed a brewery among them.
However, when he wanted to continue to query the brewery's information, he was prompted with insufficient permissions. This situation had just happened to Sha Duo. When the elf messenger took him to the restaurant, he tried to query the other party's identity information.
But it was prompted that the permissions were insufficient. Maybe the main permissions owned by Netheril could be found, or maybe only the one-sixth permission reserved by Evereska could be found.
Next, Shado tried to query information about elves other than Evereska, but was also prompted that the permissions were insufficient and only human information could be found.
There are currently a total of 142 humans within the scope of Everesca's Mystery Lock, including Shado, and even the Seven Towers Mage responsible for registration in the portal hall.
Each of these 142 people can check their current real-time location and past movement track.
As for the number of registered humans, there were more than a thousand, nearly half of whom were from the Seven Towers. Xia Duo tried to check the past movements of these people, but was prompted that the records had been erased.
Continuing to research, Xia Duo found that these action trajectory information can only be queried within the scope of the mystery lock. Once outside the scope of the mystery lock, the records will be erased.
This part of the information is not just passively recorded by Misuo. Xia Duo is still unclear on how to operate it. He only knows that it is related to detection spells.
