"There's a city on that mountain. Your Excellency Dragon, why don't we settle down first?" Ge 'erjin was now like a servant, doing his job very loyally. He had a vague feeling that this dragon would not stay for long and would leave soon. This was not a random thought. When His Excellency Dragon saw the armored giant, his' indifferent 'expression had already explained everything.
Normal travelers and natives, even if they were very strong or had a large group, would still stay away from the armored giant or even retreat in fear.
This dragon was very different.
He did not care at all.
Other than the dragons that could fly, the giants were basically the strongest existence in the Mirror Image World. However, His Excellency Dragon almost ignored them. There was no respect or fear, just like when he saw a tree on the side of the road. The armored giant was clearly dozens of meters tall, but in his eyes, it was no different from an ordinary person of the same height.
Ge 'erjin could understand.
His Excellency Dragon's Mirror Image power might not be strong, but the Magic Gun power was very strong, so he was not afraid of the armored giant.
Such a person, no matter what he did, would probably get it done quickly. It could be done in a few decades, a few years, or a few months. Before that, he had to work hard to serve and get more rewards, then improve his Mirror Image level and have a better survival ability.
"Okay." Tang Shidao did not care about what Ge 'erjin was thinking, as long as he could be a guide.
"Your Excellency Dragon, if you want to buy things or information, you must have money to pay. Money is magical energy material. Basically, all edible and useful materials have magical energy, but the stronger the beast, the higher the value of the material. "
"Oh."
"Before entering the city, let's sell the beast meat and get some money. As for you … "
"I'm selling some magical energy crystals."
"Ah, you found magical energy crystals? Hmm, okay, those are super expensive things. That … please forgive me, Your Excellency Dragon, may I ask, what do you need? Maybe I can provide some information? " When Ge 'erjin heard about magical energy crystals, he knew that His Excellency Dragon's Mirror Image World was extremely large, otherwise it would be difficult to find magical energy crystals.
"I'm looking for someone."
"Who?"
"The person who knows the history of the Mirror Image World the best, or the person who knows magical energy materials the best."
"This …"
"What do you know?" Tang Shidao was slightly surprised by Ge Erjin's reaction.
"I don't dare to hide it from you, Your Excellency Dragon. However, this information may not be useful to you. Everyone knew about magic energy materials, so let's not talk about them. The person who understood the history of the Mirror Image World the most was not a human, but an ancient dragon. It has a special name: Elder Mirror Scale. "
"Where is it?" Tang Shidao asked.
"I don't know. Really, we don't know. For ordinary travel and visits, as long as one inputted magic energy, one would definitely be able to find the mirror world that one wanted to know, such as this dragon territory. However, there were some exceptions. We don't understand why either. Rumor has it that it's a 'mirror within a mirror' world, and ordinary methods can't reach it. "
"You mean, Elder Mirror Scale added a Camouflage World in front of his Mirror Image World?"
"I think so. Everything that couldn't be accessed basically existed, but they were separated by something that couldn't be reached. We're too weak compared to dragons, so we don't dare to forcefully pry into such an existence. "Ge 'erjin nodded slightly. He didn't say that he was certain, but that was what everyone was guessing.
"How can you be sure that it's powerful?"
"Your Excellency Dragon, the Mirror Image World is an ordinary place, a world of mortals. Here, the natural condition itself is a kind of power. For example, here, in the territory of giants, those armored giants are the mirror images of giants. We can't do that. For example, in the goblin race, the mirror image is also a goblin, so it can't be a giant. The moment the mirror image is produced, the giant has the power to 'step on a mammoth and tear apart a lizard dragon'. "
"So Elder Mirror Scale must be very strong. It was originally a dragon."
"Yes, not only that, it's also an ancient dragon. Ancient dragons basically have a huge body like a mountain." Ge 'erjin's eyes were filled with envy. However, that was a gift of bloodline. Outsiders could only look up and worship it.
Tang Shidao also understood a little.
Why didn't travelers like the Mirror Image World? It was because the mirror image was produced according to the person, and naturally strong races were too advantageous.
Dragons, giants, trolls and the like would definitely do well.
But.
Humans, elves, dwarves, goblins and the like would definitely not do well.
In the Mirror Image World, the stronger the body, the stronger the mirror image. Although the mirror image could be upgraded, the natural strength of the body could increase the distance. For example, goblins like Ge 'erjin, even at level 100, would find it difficult to defeat a level 1 giant dragon. It was not that there was no chance, but the chances were very small. Unless the mirror image skill was very strong, there was no hope.
Half an hour later.
Before the magical traveling car reached the city, there were shops on both sides of the road.
From rice to beast meat, from fur to bone teeth, all kinds of purchasing shops had everything. In addition to purchasing, there were also shops that sold beast meat. In addition, there were more shops that sold weapons and armor. The flow of customers was also the highest. The shops that bought magical ores and magical crystals were the least, but the buildings were also the tallest and most luxurious. One look and one could tell that it was a nouveau riche style.
Tang Shidao also saw some shops that bought and sold slaves.
"Is it strange?"
"A little. The Mirror Image World doesn't die, right? Why are there slaves? "Tang Shidao was puzzled by this point.
"It's hard to explain. I can only say that they sell themselves."
"Reason?"
"Because of family, tribe, or race. Your Excellency Dragon, you also know that mirror images don't die, but they will be weakened. If … I mean if, now there is a human the size of an ant who is willing to sell himself and serve you loyally for a hundred years, are you willing to pay a sum of magical materials? "
"I see." Tang Shidao understood.
Mirror images didn't die, but they would be weakened.
In order to have more opportunities to turn things around, some of them were willing to sell themselves in exchange for resources to level up. Ge 'erjin mentioned family, which was even more understandable. For someone in the family or a child, one of the parents might also sell themselves. This kind of "slave" was literally a slave, but in fact, it was similar to a "factory worker."
The difference was that this kind of slave didn't have labor protection. It was a small matter if the master didn't want to be beaten to death … because they wouldn't die.
Tang Shidao also asked and found that there was no standard price for slaves.
Cheap ones.
Strong orcs or half-orcs. They were labourers who did heavy work or warriors who acted as meat shields for the charge.
Expensive ones.
Top beauties, such as human beauties or elf beauties, were sold at very high prices.
The most expensive ones were … craftsmen!
That's right.
Not beauties, not super warriors, but craftsmen. These craftsmen included a variety of professions, architects, forgers, chefs, hunters, painters, musicians, in short, it was inclusive. Of course, not all craftsmen were expensive. Just like laborers and beauties, it still depended on their own standards. The more beautiful the beauties were, the more valuable they were. The more skilled the craftsmen were, the more valuable they were.
He asked in detail.
He found that some "slaves" who sold themselves would also make some other requests in addition to money.
The most common ones.
When craftsmen sold themselves, they would usually ask the master to accept their family members, such as their children. Some warrior types asked for relief money after their death, which was to spend magic energy to help them regain their combat power.
"At your service, sir." The slave merchant smiled at everyone, even Tang Shidao, who was wearing ordinary clothes.
"I want to buy a 'butler' type of worker. Do you have any good recommendations?"
"A slave?"
"Whatever you say, do you have any?" Tang Shidao was too lazy to correct him.
"This is the list." The merchant's eyes revealed a hint of pride, as if saying that there was nothing he couldn't do. "Please take a look, sir. Whether it's a man, a woman, an old man, or a young man, we have all the goods you want. As long as you have money, there's nothing we can't satisfy. "
"Okay." Tang Shidao ignored the merchant's expression.
After flipping through, he chose the person with the most bizarre request, an old elf named 'Qing Yang'.
The merchant was stunned.
However, as a businessman, he immediately smiled and pointed at Ge 'erjin's van. "Sir, I can help you summon this old man. However, if the business between you two doesn't succeed, you have to compensate me with three hundred catties of beef. I'm very busy with my business, so I can't waste my time for nothing. I don't mean to look down on you, but this old man's request can't be satisfied by ordinary people. "
"Your words are quite annoying, but I can." Tang Shidao smiled.
"As you wish, sir."
The slave merchant gestured for the orc guard to run away and call for help. Then, he stared at Ge 'erjin's van. It was as if he was going to get the three hundred catties of beef.
Not long after.
The orc guard led an old man over.
"Excuse me …"
"My name is Dragon, your buyer. I don't want to hear too much from you. Your condition is to accept your entire tribe. I agree. From now on, you're my butler. The first thing you have to do is to sell the magic crystals in the van for me. "Tang Shidao waved his hand and interrupted, gesturing for the van to start his work.
"Oh …"
Hearing about the magic crystals, everyone present was panic-stricken.
At this time.
"Your Excellency Dragon … Please forgive me, but I can't call you master yet. My request is not just to accept. We are an elite race. We need a good forest environment, at least a green plain, not a desert. So, I need to go to your mirror world first … "
"Go and take a look, then come back and do things for me." Tang Shidao interrupted again and gestured for Qing Yang to take some magic crystals.
Going to another mirror world was very, very simple.
Find a blank mirror.
Input magic energy.
Find the target.
Teleport in … As long as the owner of the mirror world agreed, it was as convenient as teleportation. Unless there was a safe zone that prevented teleportation too close, it wouldn't be difficult to get home in a second. The location of the giants' territory was further away because of safety considerations. One step to home, one step to outside the house, or one step to outside the castle, these were all different choices for safety.
In less than two minutes, Elder Qing Yang returned.
"Master." He changed the way he addressed him and asked, "Your request, that I'm your butler, is it true?"
"Yes." Tang Shidao nodded.
"Then, can I now do things that are beneficial to you in your honor and never abandon us no matter what?"
"Of course. I don't understand the mirror world, so I need a butler like you. "
Qing Yang listened and nodded.
Then.
He walked in front of the slave merchant, grabbed his collar, and slapped him repeatedly. The beast guards next to him were shocked and wanted to stop him, but Qing Yang stared back. "You're brave, but you're not brainless. Think about why I dare to hit you."
When the four beast guards heard this, they subconsciously stepped back.
Qing Yang slapped the slave merchant dozens of times and finally threw him to the ground. "Get up, fat pig, I allow you to kiss my shoes."
With one sentence, everyone was shocked.
However, the slave merchant seemed to realize something. Ignoring the pain, he hurriedly got up and kissed Elder Qing Yang's shoes.
Qing Yang wailed, as if it was some kind of signal.
Soon.
A group of old elves in shabby clothes appeared.
"Come here and greet our new master."
"Master."
"Lead our people to the master's home. Pay attention, let the blade hunters hold daggers and bows again and kill all the thieves who dare to spy on the master's home. Without the master's orders, no one is allowed to spy, "Qing Yang roared.
"Yes!" The voice shook.
In an instant, there was a feeling that the ancient forest god had awakened again.
At this time, the onlookers all knew.
The green elves had found a golden thigh … No, they had found their new god. They had regained the blessing of the gods.
