(March 18th, 2nd update)
"That's not fair. The Six-Winged Flying Snake Seal is very important to you, and I don't even know how to use these two pieces of equipment. I'm a mage, not a gambler. "Golden runes appeared on the surface of Salin's blue eyes again. Ebola didn't use any skills on him. Salin could completely withstand it with his aura alone.
"That makes sense. But from the principle of equivalent exchange, you can exchange the Six-Winged Flying Snake Seal for these two pieces of equipment no matter what. How about this, you can go to my personal storage and take another piece of equipment. You can only choose one of these two pieces of equipment. "
Salin continued to ponder. The corner of his eye twitched. He saw Jia Lin's gaze stop on the small green crossbow behind Ebola, indicating for him to choose it.
Salin immediately took out the Six-Winged Flying Snake Seal and placed it on the table. He reached out to take the ring and put it on his finger.
Salin saw a trace of anger in Jia Lin's eyes. Ebola was also a little surprised. The small green crossbow was very powerful. Even a level-nine Magic Shooter would be killed if they weren't careful. The ring might have been more important in the past, but now it only had one-eighth of its power left. It was only comparable to the small crossbow, but it wasn't any offensive equipment.
"Then, Chief, let's go take a look …" Salin meant to go to Ebola's storage and take his second piece of equipment.
Ebola took the Six-Winged Flying Snake Seal and rubbed it in his hand. "What's the rush? There's still something I haven't said."
Salin immediately said, "Let's take care of things one by one. I'll only be at ease if I get what I want first."
Ebola sighed. "You're from Scottinya after all. Alright, Jia Lin, bring Salin to my storage. "
"Yes, Teacher." Jia Lin crooked her finger behind Ebola's back. This small action fell into Decas's eyes, but he only sneered. How many of those who were targeted by Jia Lin ever had a good ending?
Salin bowed and followed Jia Lin to the back of the palace. Behind the palace was a tall building with six floors. Salin's Elemental Eyes scanned the place, and he could tell that this six-story building was no different from a Magic Tower in terms of function. It was just that the materials used were all unknown wood, and after a simple analysis with the Elemental Eyes, he knew that it was much sturdier than iron rock.
There was no one outside the small building, but after entering the small building, there was a gatekeeper.
This was a lazy old man, and Salin didn't dare to underestimate him. This old man didn't even clean his beard, and his eyes were completely focused. This kind of person either wouldn't live for more than seventy-two hours, or he was so powerful that he wouldn't release all of his power, making it hard to see any weaknesses.
Salin could understand why Ebola would leave such a powerful person here to guard the door. While this warehouse might not be Ebola's property, it was still an important place for the Glücos family. He was lucky to be able to enter. Ebola allowed him to walk around the place as a form of compensation for his trade.
Just as Salin had said, no matter how precious the things he had taken were, they were not urgently needed. The Six-Winged Flying Snake Seal was extremely important to Ebola, so he was eager to obtain it.
"Uncle Gulo, Master asked me to choose an item." Jia Lin greeted the old man. The old man opened one eye, glanced at Salin, and nodded without saying a word.
Jia Lin then led Salin to push open the small door at the front, and walked into the corridor.
The door behind them closed automatically, and Jia Lin said, "Salin, I was kind enough to remind you, but you just had to choose that broken ring."
"Your Master said that this ring is of the same level as the Elven Crossbow."
"It's already broken, and now it's just a piece of equipment that adds spiritual power. You want to repair it? Hmph, wait until you advance to Level-18, "Jia Lin said angrily, as if she was very familiar with Salin, and had been friends for many years.
"It's better if it's broken. I don't like things that are intact." Salin was very wary of Jia Lin's habits. If he stayed by her side for too long, he would unknowingly be bewitched by her, and he wouldn't be able to develop any hostility.
"Salin, are you afraid of me?" Jia Lin stopped, turned around, and reached out to push open a door. "This warehouse is the best."
"What about up there?" Salin pointed upstairs. He remembered that there were six floors in this building, and generally speaking, the higher the level, the more valuable the items were.
"Are you sure you want to go up?" Jia Lin looked at Salin, and asked seriously.
Salin shook his head, and said, "Just tell me, what's in here?"
"Junk that the Glücos family has collected for thousands of years, and equipment that can't be pieced together. You're a Sorcerer, so you should know that such equipment only counts as one in six. If you're confident, you might be able to find something really good here. I'm not interested in the ones above. "
"Is this the only warehouse?"
"Of course not, this is Master's personal, so I can give you one. If it belongs to the family, Master will have to ask all the elders before deciding whether to let you in. Of course, if you're greedy, Master will have a reason to kill you. She's been bullied in Alchemy City, and she doesn't know who to vent her anger on. "Jia Lin looked like she knew everything.
"Then it'll be this one," Salin said, and walked into the warehouse that didn't look that big.
The room was densely packed with boxes. Salin walked into the room, and felt like he had entered an insect's nest. All his sense of time and space blurred, and Salin almost thought that he had become a bug, crawling in his own nest.
How could this be!
"Ha!" Jia Lin followed behind Salin, but was not affected. She said to Salin, "Although the Golden Plains is safe, we still have to guard against this warehouse. The most important things are always carried by Teacher. However, in order to guard against accidents, Teacher has to leave quite a few things behind. These things are all extremely precious. If Teacher dies outside, these things will be enough to ensure that the next Clan Leader will not be too poor. "
"Is that why you set up this magical array?"
"It's not a magical array, it's a magical sequence." Jia Lin did not hide it, and Salin asked casually. How could he not know about magical sequences? Magical sequences were the result of the fusion of countless magical arrays. His own Metatlin City had Dante's sequence, and it had the strongest killing power.
In this small room, who knew how many boxes had been opened up, and in each box was an independent item. Salin glanced around, and along the way, he saw many pieces of equipment made of strange materials. Unfortunately, these pieces of equipment were incomplete, and some only had a box left.
Salin, however, knew that many pieces of equipment had to be placed in special containers, and could only be taken out when needed.
The corridors in this warehouse were uneven, and Salin walked all the way down, not in a hurry to choose an item. Jia Lin accompanied him, and reminded him, "Salin, magical sequences can't be learned just by memory."
"I know, I just want to familiarize myself with the environment, in case I come back again in the future." Salin's words made even someone like Jia Lin speechless. What Salin meant was that he would still come back secretly in the future.
Salin did not care whether he could learn it or not. This magical sequence could expand the space to the maximum, and make use of the warehouse rationally. At the same time, this magical sequence had a more powerful influence than Hallucination Magic, and ordinary thieves could not even see the entrance. Even if he could not learn the defensive abilities of this magical sequence, he could at least learn how to rationally cut space.
Seeing that Salin was ignoring her, Jia Lin could only follow beside him. She was also afraid that Salin would be too bold and take a few more items here. Although the equipment here was incomplete, the quality of the materials was very high. If it was confirmed that the equipment could no longer be repaired, these items could be taken away to be refined again.
After walking around, Salin quietly took out six items. This time, he listened to Jia Lin, because he did not lack finished equipment, but he still desired high-quality materials.
Especially one of the scabbards. If not for the sound of thunder echoing in his head, Salin would have been unable to suppress his excitement, and Jia Lin would have seen something.
This was the scabbard of a short sword. Salin could see at a glance that this scabbard corresponded to the 24 laws. This was the scabbard of the Rule Sword.
The scabbard of the Rule Sword had been added later, and did not have any power of laws on it.
The power of laws on this scabbard was clearly used together with the Rule Sword. At this stage, the Rule Sword was still a more practical equipment. But as the power of the Plane loosened, sooner or later, the Rule Sword would no longer be suitable for Nelis.
Jia Lin did not know that Salin had gathered a room of equipment. She urged Salin, "Hurry up and stop wandering around. Teacher is waiting over there."
"Okay, got it." Salin threw away a square jade plate and took out a huge scale from the lattice. This scale was the skull of the Six-Winged Flying Serpent, and its level and quality seemed to be the same as the Six-Winged Flying Serpent Seal. On the front of the scale was a complicated magic array. Salin remembered that Nelis's Bone Shield had been pierced. If she had this scale, she would not have been injured by Van Gogh and almost died.
Seeing that Salin had made his choice, Jia Lin snorted coldly and led Salin out of the warehouse. Actually, it was Ebola who wanted to bring Salin to that room. Ebola knew that a Mage of Salin's level was more interested in materials.
Following Jia Lin back to the side hall, Ebola was indeed waiting for Salin. Salin sat down again, and only then did Ebola speak. "Salin, are you satisfied with our exchange?"
Salin nodded. "Very fair."
"That's good. Now, let's talk about attacking Alchemy City."
"I won't go." Salin refused decisively.
Alchemy City was a place where even if he hid behind Ebola, he might not be safe. Just like how the people of Alchemy City would not cause trouble in Metatlin, Salin would not be stupid enough to go there.
