Chapter 40

At noon, a city of more than 10 meters high appeared in front of everyone. This was the Bone City.

It covered an area of more than 30 square kilometers and was the largest city in several nearby territories.

After paying the entrance fee, the crowd entered Bone City. The streets were lined with houses, signs and flags of stores were flying, and the streets were crowded with people. It was a lively and prosperous scene.

Looking at the constant stream of people on the street, Locke sighed, “This seems to be the first time I’ve seen such a prosperous scene in months.”

Locke felt that things had changed. When he came to Lister, there was nothing. In just a few months, he obtained the god system and summoned three gods. He also practiced the small universe and became the level-1 mage.

If those people had known his current situation, they would have been shocked.

Athena, Asclepius, and Hephaestus also looked curiously at the first city they saw after they came to this world.

Of course, Hephaestus didn’t take out the hammer. Otherwise, a strong man carrying a hammer would frighten many people.

Kotter took his retinues to deliver the weapons for sale to the stationed post. At the same time, Locke decided to take Athena and the others to feel the food in the world.

There were only potatoes, the existing crops in Lister, and these potatoes were not mature yet. Most of the food supply was bought from Bone City by men sent by Locke. The variety and richness of food were naturally not as good as that of Bone City.

About more than 10 minutes later, Locke and the three of them arrived at a Lebon Hotel that was over 10 meters high.

Lebon Hotel was a typical Gothic building. The west side was the entrance of the front door, and above was an exquisitely carved rose window. The east side was surrounded by a corridor, and the whole outside was exquisitely carved, looking magnificent.

However, after taking a glance at the images of the carvings on the pillars, Hephaestus was not interested in them at all. “The sculptor is not good at carvings. The textures are not smooth enough. His carving action is not fluent.”

“Look at the rose window. The design is in a mess. I can’t even stand it.”

“Besides, look at that statue. It has no facial details and glassy eyes. It’s a waste of sculpture materials.”

Hephaestus didn’t try to hide his voice and began to comment casually. The aristocrats around him gradually darkened their faces after hearing what he said.

“Not everyone is a master of forging like you.”

Noticing the change in the people’s eyes, Locke said helplessly, “If you continue, I’m afraid we won’t be able to have dinner today.”

Hephaestus stopped and saw the nobles around him staring at him angrily.

It was known that this Lebon Hotel was one of the landmark buildings in Bone City. It was famous for its exquisite and gorgeous design. The nobles in Bone City often came here for fun. Now, there was a person who said it was a bad place. He was humiliating the nobles!

“You have done a bad job. Why don’t you let others talk about it?”

Hephaestus grumbled, and even though he said so, he stopped.

Athena and Asclepius gave helpless smiles and followed Locke to the hall.

A meal here would cost at least dozens of gold coins. According to Icacia Continent’s conversion, 1 gold coin was equal to 100 coins and 1 silver coin was equal to 100 copper coins.

A gold coin was the monthly expense of many ordinary families.

According to Locke’s previous economic level, he wouldn’t spend hundreds of gold coins to have a meal here, but now it was different. He had made a huge fortune when he dealt with the bandits. The weapons he was going to sell were estimated to be worth more than one hundred thousand gold coins.

As soon as Locke and the others entered the hall, a tall maid with bared long legs came up to them.

“Distinguished guests, welcome to Lebon Hotel. What can we do for you?”

The maid was highly cultivated, and her voice was soft and pleasant to hear. All the maids recognized Locke as a noble at the first sight because Locke was dressed in aristocratic clothes.

Oh my God! He was so handsome!

Looking at Locke’s handsome face secretly, the maid blushed and her heart skipped a beat.

Did this noble master just arrive in Bone City?

The maid thought to herself, as the person in charge of reception, she had seen almost all the nobles in Bone City, but she had never seen Locke.

But she didn’t think she had a chance.

Looking at the noble, beautiful and elegant Athena beside Locke, the maid felt a little dejected in her eyes.

“Arrange a big private room for us.”

Locke nodded with a smile.

Soon, the maid led Locke and the others to the private room.

Filet steak, crispy goose liver with mushroom, caviar seafood platter…

Locke, Asclepius, and Hephaestus ordered more than 10 dishes. In addition to these, Athena also ordered 7 or 8 desserts, such as tiramisu, marzipan, Sacher cake, and so on.

A meal cost more than 1000 gold coins.

Looking at the dishes ordered by Locke and others, the maid was a little surprised. Even in Bone City, few people could eat thousands of gold coins for a meal.

Lebon Hotel was very efficient. Within half an hour, all the dishes had been served.

“Although the skill of carving is not very good, the food in this world is good.” Hephaestus said with satisfaction while chewing the beef.

Asclepius was also eating with his head down and nodding sullenly, still approving of Hephaestus’ words.

Athena, on the other hand, enjoyed the food elegantly.

Bang~

Just as everyone was enjoying their meal, the door of the private room was suddenly pushed open.

A young man broke in, followed by two guards.

The young man was wearing a trainee magic robe, with his royal style curly hair covering his shoulder. He raised his head, looked down at the people in the room arrogantly, and finally stopped on Locke.

When the young man saw Locke, he was first stunned, and then smiled contemptuously. “I heard from my subordinate that someone bragged that the hotel’s carving is low-end.”

Then the young man walked in and looked at Locke arrogantly. “Now I see you, Locke Capet. I seem to understand.”

“Church Yallman.”

Looking at the young man who came in, Locke frowned slightly. After thinking for a while, Locke finally remembered his name.

In addition to the students of mage, mage academy also set up a magic awakening class to teach the magic principles of children who hadn’t awakened magic talent.

The man in front of him was called “Church Yallman “, the son of a viscount, who was in the same class as Locke.

Locke didn’t like a playboy like Yallman, so they didn’t get along well.
