In a month's time to reach the current level, what Claire has done is miraculous in the eyes of the world, but Claire doesn't feel proud at all, because she has always relied on the power of foreign objects. Without this precious stone, she would be nothing at all. Let alone revenge for Longjia, I'm afraid I'll die in the hands of the armed guard that night.
"The perception of elements depends on each mage's own personality, but those with strong magic can force the six elements by magic. Daily meditation helps mages gather more elements in casting spells. The power of magic of the same level in the hands of mages with different magic sizes is also different."
Learning makes Claire almost forget time and space. Every time Claire gets back a lot of food and water. Claire won't go out to collect something until she runs out of food or needs new spell knowledge.
"Besides meditation, some advanced potions can also speed up the magic growth of the mage \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\.
After stopping to study, Claire sorted out the empty bread bag and some garbage, took it to the open space outside the room, whispered a spell, and a fist sized fireball appeared in Claire's hand. After throwing the fireball into the garbage and burning it. Claire returned to the room, picked up the mask again, put it on, and took a small cloth bag out of the drawer.
"Longjia ~ I'll go out for a while and come back soon."
Even knowing that the orc's skull can never answer itself. But Claire used to say hello every time she went out and returned, because if she didn't, Claire would feel that her spirit would collapse because of loneliness and pain.
It was late at night after she came to the ground. Claire was wearing a windbreaker and a mask and walked carefully along the path. She didn't want to meet the patrolling city guards. No matter whether there was a crime or not, she wandered back late at night. She was either an assassin or a thief. Once caught by the guards, she would be beaten up and thrown into prison. Then you have to wait for money to redeem people. If no one takes money to redeem people, you need to be a living sandbag in prison for a few days.
Walk along the path to the lower area in the west of the city. After turning a path, Claire came to an alley crossing guarded by several people who looked like gangsters. Watching Claire in his cloak come over, several gangsters who were chatting stood up and watched carefully. Claire also kept walking to several people, took out a hundred leans and stuffed them into one of them.
"Bayti's grandfather."
After saying a secret signal, several gangsters immediately nodded and looked around. After confirming that there were no outsiders, several gangsters immediately opened the door and motioned Claire to go in quickly.
Claire didn't say much and went straight in. The whole roadway was dark, and only sporadic lights barely lit up the direction of the road like ghost fire. In this almost dazzling darkness, Claire was familiar with walking in the maze like alley. The light came on gradually after entering a deeper part of the roadway. There are more and more pedestrians on the road. But most of the pedestrians here are strong men with ferocious faces, or people who are thin and short but have a treacherous face. Of course, in the houses on both sides, weak female gasps and male roars are constantly coming from some dark lit huts, and some prostitutes - women wearing translucent gauze skirts or directly semi naked upper body stand in front of the door and flirt with every passing man.
"Which little brother, don't you come to play with your sister?".
"It seems that your body is very tight. Maybe I can let you relax."
Ignoring the call of the prostitute, Claire, who looked short in the crowd, walked straight forward. This is a black street in the free city. As the name suggests, it is a gathering place for criminals and smugglers. Here, it shows another different dark side in the free city. As long as you have money, you can buy anything here, including drugs, weapons, women and even children. At the same time, there are many acquisition shops here. Accept all stolen goods.
After arriving at a shop, Claire kicked open the drunkard sleeping at the door of the shop, walked into the shop, and the gray old man immediately put down his things. Seeing that Claire came here, he immediately put on a flattering smiling face and said, "haven't seen you for a long time. Do you still come to sell some things today?".
Claire didn't answer, but just took off the cloth bag and poured out the contents: "how much is it worth?"
The old man took a breath of air-conditioning. Claire poured out a few gold coins and some jewelry. The largest sapphire was outside, and the price was at least tens of thousands of rihn. These are nothing. The most exciting thing is to take three high-grade magic crystals emitting magic brilliance. I'm afraid the price of these three magic crystals alone is about 100000 lien.
"Sorry, please wait a moment. I'll help you estimate the price right away." While talking, the old man took out his glasses and put them on. He began to carefully check the jewelry.
Claire was also worried and sat down casually in a chair. The old man looked very carefully. After all, jewelry is good if it is low, but it is definitely a loss. While watching the old man, he calculated the price with a pen. At this time, the door of the store was pushed open again. A tall mercenary came in with two thin men. The two thin men took out some small pieces, mainly rings, gold coins, medals and other things, and piled them on the table. It seems that they also came to sell the stolen goods.
"Wait a minute. I'll read it for this gentleman first."
The three nodded, but they immediately noticed what the old man was checking, especially when they saw those beautiful jewelry and three magic crystals, their eyes showed greedy eyes. I'm afraid it would be nice to know that these little bits and pieces can be exchanged for more than 10000 leans, but the pile of jewelry, especially the three magic crystals, is worth at least more than 100000.
Suddenly, a thin man noticed Claire sitting beside him. For a moment, the man recalled some news from the free city recently. Several jewelry stores and magic stores subordinate to the chamber of commerce were stolen one after another. The criminal's means of committing the crime was very abnormal, leaving no trace at the scene, Even the protective array in the store did not play any role. Recently, the security team in the city even offered a reward of 50000 lien to collect clues to solve the case.
Isn't it this guy?
This idea flashed through the man's mind. After all, only the stolen goods went to the black street to buy things. During this period of time, it was specially indicated that many expensive high-grade magic crystal stones were stolen. Isn't it the magic crystal stone in front of him now? However, in fact, he guessed half right. Several of the recent thefts in the free city were done by Claire, but more cases were done for a "noble lady" who was busy accumulating wealth.
Through magic learning and meditation, Claire's perception also increased a lot. The man's eyes were detected instantly, and even Claire could judge what was going on in the other party's heart.
At this time, the old man finished estimating the price, because the price was too high. The old man put the things in the safe first, and then motioned Claire to come behind the counter.
150000 leans!
The old man gave the price, and Claire nodded indifferently. In fact, Claire might get more if she was willing to bargain. But for Claire, who originally came to sell the stolen goods, it doesn't matter if he is less or more. After all, he is not short of money now. For himself, money is only used for information.
For Claire's cheerfulness, the old man was naturally very happy and quickly took out the cash and handed it to Claire.
When Claire opened the door and left, a sneaky shadow also ran out of the stolen goods store and quietly followed Claire behind. Looking at Claire's short head, the man pulled out the dagger around his waist and was already considering waiting for a place with few people to do a big deal. If it's done, the other party's cash should be enough to play happily for a long time.
On the way, he found that the target in front of him began to turn into a roadway. As a person who has lived in the black street for more than ten years, the man knew very well that there were few people in and out of the roadway in front of him. It was a good place for strong x, robbery and murder.
He immediately followed up. After turning the corner, the man was stunned because the lane was empty. The target you track is like disappearing into the roadway.
"Shit! It's impossible. He really turned around!"
When the man scolded secretly, suddenly he found that there was a dazzling light source on his left side. He just turned his head and didn't have time to see what the light source was. The light source instantly moved and some of it rushed into the man's mouth. The intense pain caused by the burning immediately rolled over his mind. The man almost fainted because of pain in an instant, but the burning did not end. Instead, it became more and more hot, which activated the brain that had just started the "coma" protection mechanism. Before the man could make a scream, flames began to spray out of his mouth, nose, ears and eyes, The whole head is like a burning scarecrow, which immediately turns into coke.
When the smell of paste began to fill the air, the man whispered on the ground. Claire came out of the shadow at this time, looked at the man lying on the ground, bent down, untied his waist bag and took away a few hundred leans. By the way, the dagger became a booty. Then Claire accelerated again and quickly left the scene. (to be continued...)
