Wizard Wood was the old black man from the last Transcendent gathering.
"We often go to the docks to perform together. We're old acquaintances." The skinny man, Pogba, nodded.
"He's preparing for a big project recently. Do you know that?" Danny asked again.
"How big?" The skinny man's tone was casual. Obviously, he did not think that his old friend could suddenly become successful.
"A mega-project of a million gold radiance coins," Danny whispered mysteriously.
The skinny man ignored the pain in his balls. He jumped and exclaimed, "What? What's he going to do? Which idiot has a million gold coins for him to cheat? "
Danny's face darkened. Just because of this sentence, I'll punish you with 200 pounds of wildfire!
She put her hand to her lips and whispered, "Mother Of Dragons! He's going to Slavers' Bay to seek refuge with the Mother Of Dragons. That woman has at least one billion gold coins from the slave owner's house. One million is just a drop in the ocean. "
"One … billion? How many?" The skinny man asked blankly.
"If there are one million people, each person can get ten thousand gold coins."
The skinny man's eyes bulged, but he quickly recovered and said doubtfully, "That's impossible, right? Even the iron vault doesn't have that much gold. "
Of course, Danny was bragging. Not to mention one billion, even without silver coins and jewelry, there was not even one hundred million gold royals.
"A 50% discount is not a small amount!" Danny waved her hand.
"That's true." The skinny man nodded and asked curiously, "Is Wood not afraid of death? The allies won't let him go. "
"Don't you know that wealth comes from danger? It's a million gold coins. How much can you earn in a day by performing at the docks? "
"Seven to eight hundred copper coins."
"Not bad. If you live frugally, you can save two gold radiance coins in half a month. If you work hard for twenty thousand years, it's almost the same as Wizard Wood's big project."
"Two … ten thousand years." The skinny man seemed to be in a daze. After a while, he gritted his teeth and said firmly, "I'm going to Slavers' Bay too. I'm not worse than Wood."
"Well, you can go with Wizard Wood. It's best to find a group of wild wizards. Do you know the situation with the Dragon Incubator Mages? I think you have the potential to become one of the top three. Yes, the top three of the Mother Of Dragons Mage Squad, "Danny encouraged.
"Hehehe, I think so too. After all, I'm considered an Extraordinary. I'm much stronger than those fake Fire Mages on the streets. "The skinny man laughed foolishly.
Pogba left excitedly.
Before they left, they tried their best to invite the fire mage intern, Leila, to work on that big project with them.
Well, with Wood, the three acquaintances just formed the Big Three.
The skinny man was too enthusiastic, so Danny could only tell him that Tamu had recruited her.
Before going upstairs, Danny suddenly remembered something. She went to the front desk and asked the clerk behind the desk, "Do you remember me? I'm staying in VIP Suite No. 8 on the second floor. Yesterday evening, you were the one who brought me — "
Without waiting for her to finish, the registrar with a book tattoo on his face bowed and said, "Priest Leila, of course I remember. What can I do for you?"
"Has anyone come to look for me?"
"Well, the Widow by the Waterside came to look for you."
"I've already seen her. Is there anyone else, or a slave?"
"No."
Danny frowned and thought for a moment. Then she said, "If someone comes to look for me when I'm not here, you have to remember it and find a chance to remind me."
"Of course."
She was waiting for the Cadillac, the elephant coachman who had sent them into the city yesterday evening. But she didn't have to wait for him.
This was a test, a choice.
Yesterday, Danny grabbed two fistfuls of yellow copper coins and stuffed them into the Cadillac's pocket. At that time, no one noticed that there were five gold radiance coins mixed in.
The clever young man had been looking forward to the Mother Of Dragons, hoping that the Mother Of Dragons would bring him freedom.
In this way, the Mother Of Dragons gave him a great opportunity.
Slaves had the opportunity to become free people and could be redeemed.
Five gold radiance coins could buy ten Cadillac, even if he had very good elephant training skills.
But slaves were not allowed to own property, and it was impossible for them to save money to redeem themselves.
Danny wanted to know how smart the young man was.
As dusk approached, the red sun in the west looked like the background curtain behind the stage. It was rounder and bigger, and the dim gray square seemed to be draped with a layer of red and gold.
It was like a noisy giant beast waking up from a deep sleep.
The fishmongers shouted loudly, and the women and girls with baskets haggled with sharp voices. The white steam above the barbecue stall was dyed red by the sunset. The fishy smell of the fish, the rancid smell of the mercenaries, the fresh smell of the teppanyaki steak, the spiciness of the roasted pepper, and the sweetness of the honey wine attacked Danny one after another.
If it was in the past, she would take out a silk handkerchief to cover her nose. Now that there was a red lacquered wooden mask on her face, Danny could only hold it in.
Her face was pressed by the lacquered wood, and she felt a little uncomfortable. But she also found a good thing. The people coming and going were like river water that met a big rock, automatically avoiding her. Even the boldest and bravest mercenaries didn't dare to come close to her.
For example, the Wind Blowing Group …
Danzo lay lazily on a high-back chair with his legs on the table. He played his guitar and sang leisurely to the people coming and going. He had the demeanor of a suave swordsman poet.
Danny walked down the stone steps and stood beside the Wind Blowing Group. She was purely bored, and Danzo's skills were also very good.
In the end, the old mercenary turned his head to look at the Shadow Binding Knight beside him a few times. He wanted to say something, but he held it in. In the end, he just sighed, put his guitar aside, and began to instruct his subordinates to move the table.
Yes, the Wind Blowing Group stayed seven or eight meters away from Danny.
The Shadow Binding Knight's "evil-warding" effect was that good.
Fortunately, the awkwardness didn't last long. Soon, a huge white elephant stopped in front of Danny.
"Leila, come up!" Tam shouted from above.
It was an exquisite castle. The golden railings glowed with a bright red halo under the setting sun.
At the same time, five slaves wearing thick red blankets jogged over and silently knelt below the elephant in order.
The first one was a sturdy dwarf who was more than one meter tall. The second one was 1.3 meters tall. The third one was 1.6 meters tall. The fourth one was 1.9 meters tall. The fifth one was 2.2 meters tall. They looked like a small giant.
They knelt close to each other like a flight of stairs. Dani only needed to hold on to the reins that dangled beside the white elephant, and she could easily climb one step at a time to the metal ladder at the bottom of the castle.
"Move away. I'll do it myself." Danny frowned and waved her hand to let the slaves leave. She held the rope ladder hanging beside the elephant. Her movements were as light as an elephant coachman.
The castle was very spacious. It had a space of five square meters. Danny took off the long sword from her waist and sat cross-legged at the small round table in the center like Tam did.
When she sat down, there was a sound of metal colliding in her clothes. Tam frowned and said, "You're not only carrying a knight's sword, but you also have armor under your robe?"
Danny lifted her sky-blue robe and revealed the silver chain armor outside the leather armor. She said, "It's just chain armor, not plate armor."
"You're now a mage, a Shadow Binding Knight," Tam reminded her.
"So?"
"An elegant and wise person shouldn't wear a barbarian knight's costume." The Shadow Binding Knight's voice was sonorous and powerful as if he was explaining a truth.
"Lisbon thought so too. Then, he was stabbed to death." Danny shrugged and said coldly.
“.....”
The giant elephant began to move slowly. The castle shook slightly.
Just when Danny thought that the topic of armor had ended, Tam sighed and said faintly, "Metal affects the wizard's witchcraft. Wearing armor can't cast witchcraft, even if it's Valleglia's steel."
Bullshit, when I was still a rookie, I wore a thick armor and used an immature "Soul Strike" to defeat Faceless One.
The whole process was very smooth. There was no delay.
"Really?" She doubted.
The Shadow Binding Knight said, "If the armor doesn't affect the casting of spells, the wizards of Valleglia would have a Valleglia's steel armor.
But the fact is, they would rather use Valleglia's steel to make the sphinx statue than to forge a steel sword and a set of armor. "
"Why would they be stingy? Even if the wizards don't use it, the warriors can wear it. "Danny was puzzled.
"So they let the warriors wear the anti-magic Valleglia's steel armor and wield the Valleglia's steel sword to kill the wizards?" Tam sneered.
"This …" Thinking back to the Valyrian steel sword's terrifying anti-magic effect, especially the last time they went to Orloss, where Barristan killed a large number of 'Fire Roundworms' with a swing of his sword, Dani came to a realization. "So that's how it is!"
"Hey, Westeros Knight!"
A loud shout came from beside the giant elephant, waking Danny who was deep in thought. She turned her head in confusion and found that the elephant was still wandering in front of the Merchant's House. It had stopped in front of a mercenary recruitment counter.
There was a flag of a baring black cat next to it. It seemed to be Bloodbeard's cat group.
"Waiting for someone?" Danny asked.
The Shadow Binding Knight nodded. "Moon Singer Khaza lives in the upper house."
The upper house of the Merchant's House was prepared for rich merchants. It was a small independent courtyard with beautiful scenery. It was clean and tidy. Danny naturally could afford to live there. There were more people in the middle house, so it was easier for her to ask for information.
"I'm from Dorne, the son of a wine merchant. I'm traveling along the Summer Sea. Of course, I'm also helping my family find out about the wine market in the cities. "It was a familiar voice and a familiar face.
It was a Dornishman whom she had met twice.
"Traveling along the Summer Sea? Idiot! " The mercenary from the cat group muttered. He then shouted, "You have a two-handed sword hanging at your waist. You should be a good swordsman, right?"
The black-haired young man nodded and said, "I've learned swordsmanship for a few years."
"Then what are you waiting for? The next stop of the tour around the Summer Sea is Slave Bay. Hurry up and sign your name, and become a brave little wild cat under Blood Beard's command! " The mercenary waved a stack of parchment contracts and said in a loud voice, "Not only will you be able to see the scenery of Slave Bay for free, you will also have countless gold coins and beautiful girls and boys. You might even be able to defeat the Dragon Queen and become a dragon slayer."
After saying that, the mercenary actually started singing. "We are the cat group, fighting our way to Slave Bay. Slave Bay, first kill the Count of Shattered Shackles, then kill the real Dragon Queen …"
The two mercenaries beside him also sang. Their voices were loud and clear, and their expressions were heroic.
Danny's mouth twitched. At the same time, she remembered Bloodbeard and the cat group in her heart.
"Kid, if you want to die without a complete corpse, sign it." Danzo, who was a few steps away, strummed his guitar a few times. The sharp sound disrupted the rhythm of the cat group's' chorus'.
"Damn old man, you want to snatch our people again!" The cat group's mercenary scolded angrily.
"I just don't want a kid who craves honor to die without honor," Danzo said calmly.
The Dornishman could tell that there was a hidden meaning in his words. He immediately put down his ink brush and took a few steps back. He asked in confusion, "Old man, what do you mean?"
