Chapter 125
However, he quickly caught two key words in the other party’s words.
floating island ” and ” flooding disaster “.
There was a lot of information hidden behind this.
According to Roger’s knowledge.
The people living on the floating island were all from the six ‘families’, and they were the true rulers of the gemstone city.
The many gangs under the floating island were just the external manifestation of the six families ‘power.
This group of people held the core power of gemstone city in their hands.
That power was magic.
That’s right.
The current floating island of gemstone city was a legacy of the ‘society of Aether’ era.
After the members of the six families inherited the authority of the society of Aether, they were all stunned.
The ” society of truth ” was built in the style of the old era.
The society of truth represented the highest level of magic attainments in gemstone city and its surrounding areas.
It was said that the number of transcendent mages inside exceeded two digits.
This was a terrifying force.
And under such circumstances.
The ‘ether Dragon eater’ could actually flood the floating island ...
Then, he thought of how the ether carnivorous Dragon had not dodged when Roger had marked it. Instead, it had rushed over aggressively.
It wasn’t hard to deduce the following:
The ether devouring Dragon had extremely high magic resistance, and might even be magic immune!
At the same time, its physical defense was also high enough.
It only dared to be so arrogant under such circumstances.
As for why Roger had killed him with a single slap ...
It was most likely due to [ Qi ].
the shattering palm is indeed a powerful weapon to get rid of evil. In the end, I’m still a true disciple of the clear spring sect.
Roger thought rather proudly.
..
“But I advise you not to think too much.”
Unknowingly.
The bartender became more talkative. He looked at Roger seriously.
last week, a few people wanted to use this opportunity to get onto the floating island, but they were thrown down.
if it were you, how would you feel if you were thrown down from a floating island that was nearly a thousand meters high? ”
Roger nodded in agreement.
that is indeed a terrifying thing.
The bartender nodded in satisfaction.
“So, don’t think about reaching the heavens in one step.”
you look good. I have a few other jobs for you to try.
Finished speaking.
He quietly pushed a small note over.
..
[urgent call: strong man/gentle young man/custard]
[ workplace: unknown, mostly women of floating islands salon ]
..
“Ah, thank you for your kindness ... But I’m not thinking about that for now.”
Roger declined the bartender’s kind invitation.
This was no wonder.
The human skin mask he had just put on was a little lighter in temperament, but his appearance was indeed not ordinary.
His charm directly increased by 2 points after the exchange.
And perhaps there were more bonus points in terms of appearance.
After Roger rejected him, the bartender’s attitude immediately turned cold.
Roger wasn’t annoyed. After paying a tip as promised, he was about to leave.
To his surprise, the bartender took the initiative to strike up a conversation with the girl in the black dress behind Roger.
“May I know your name? A beautiful lady?”
...
The girl in the black dress was stunned for a moment and looked at Roger.
The latter blinked.
She immediately understood and said in a sweet voice, ”
“I’m called Woodpecker.”
She had just learned the common language, so she stammered a little, but it had an indescribable charm.
“Ah, a Woodpecker! What a poetic name!”
The bartender immediately hummed a song. After he finished, he looked at the girl in the black dress affectionately.
“Can I buy you a drink?”
He quickly glanced at Roger’s back as he left.
The woodpecker smiled shyly.
“Of course you can.”
...
..
Late at night.
In a single room on the third floor of the scavenger Inn.
The girl in the black dress who had just returned placed a large bag of information on the table.
Roger asked casually as he flipped through the information, ”
“How’s the wine?”
The woodpecker said in a sweet voice,
“It’s terrible.”
“Use your normal voice,” Roger said with a frown.
“I understand, master. It’s terrible.”
A low male voice sounded, ”
the more that human drank, the more excited he became. Then, he brought me to his residence. This was where I found these things.
Roger nodded.
“And then? Did he discover your identity?”
The woodpecker frowned and said,
“That’s the bad part.”
he became even more excited after he found out.
Roger coughed so hard that he almost choked.
“And after that?”
He asked nosily.
“I killed him.”
The woodpecker said concisely,
“This morning, the job he tried to introduce to you was a trap.”
the so-called job scope is not to serve the ladies, but to become a human test subject for a mage on the floating island.
according to my sources, more than 20 people have been tricked this year, and they all ended up in a miserable state.
Roger nodded slightly.
This was within his expectations.
When the bartender was promoting the job, his sixth sense detected malicious intent.
He just didn’t expect it to be something like this.
“This floating island is really covered in haze.”
Roger couldn’t help but snort.
He thought for a while and said, ”
for the time being, get Wu Gu and the others to find an abandoned farm and stay there. Wait for my notice for the next move.
this money is enough for your expenses, but you must be careful and keep a low profile.
The woodpecker nodded repeatedly.
“What about you, master?”
She could not help but ask.
“The floating island.”
Roger gently tapped the document he had pulled out from a pile of intelligence.
..
[ mission: recruit an experienced masseuse ]
[ description: Ms. Shar from floating island No. 4 is suffering from cervical spondylosis and hip pain. She is now recruiting senior masseuse throughout the entire gemstone City Region for an hourly salary of 200 copper coins. ]
[ contact: old Locke (you can find him near Blackhawk square or the ruined bridge) ]
..
The next afternoon.
On the Black Eagle Square.
A frivolous young man carrying a black coffin quickly walked past, attracting the attention of many people.
But in Jewel City.
There were people in all kinds of strange clothes.
In the eyes of many, coffins were just decorations.
The prostitutes around the square whistled and winked at the young man, but he ignored them.
“You’re ah BA?”
At a corner of the square.
The white-haired old Locke joked, ”
don’t be so nervous. We’re not going to die on the floating island.
of course, if you can’t satisfy lady Shar, she might throw you off the floating island. This coffin won’t be of any use, so why don’t you sell it to me at a cheap price? ”
Roger raised his eyebrows and said arrogantly, ”
I’m a martial artist. This is my training tool.
Old Loke nodded in relief.
yes, I’ve seen your self-introduction. You’re a martial artist from the deep mountains of the ‘lightning Highland’.
“Perhaps lady Shar needs someone like you.”
we have to move faster. Otherwise, it’ll take another two hours to get to the next floating ship.
Roger kept silent.
He just followed old Loke into the depths of Black Eagle Square.
20 minutes later.
They were standing on the deck of a medium-sized floating ship.
In the loud roar of the inferior medium stone.
The floating ship slowly took off.
A strong wind blew, and many people on the deck couldn’t help but hold onto the wooden poles beside them.
Roger didn’t help her up. He had seen this kind of wind many times in the sky.
When the air flow gradually stabilized.
Old Loke said, ”
don’t be in such a hurry. The floating boat is flying very slowly. It’s floating island No. 4’s turn to ascend to the highest orbit today, so it will take a little longer.
Roger said in surprise, ”
with such low transportation efficiency, don’t the men on the floating island find it slow? ”
Old rock smiled.
one day, if you join the six great clans, you won’t have to ride a floating ship anymore.
your means of transportation will become the ‘gate of Aether’. It was a very powerful teleportation technique that was left behind by the ancestors of the old era. I’ve heard that the old men in the society of truth have been working hard to restore this technology. I wonder when they’ll be able to successfully popularize it. Let us enjoy that convenience too.”
Roger sensed the probing in his words and glared at him fiercely.
The latter smiled embarrassedly and did not say anything more.
..
The floating boat slowly approached the shore.
Old rock led Roger through the clean and tidy city and finally came to a secluded villa.
After knocking on the door, a Butler came to receive him.
Old lock completed the broker’s mission and left without looking back.
The serious-looking middle-aged female Butler led Roger to the living room and left after giving him a few instructions.
Roger put down the black coffin and sat down.
The decorations in the living room were extremely luxurious.
The floor was paved with pure white marble.
A series of Topaz chandeliers hung down from the dome, each of them seven to eight meters long.
All he could see was gold and Jade.
Even the grip of the chair Roger was sitting on was inlaid with two pieces of white jade.
The only thing missing was the word ‘rich’ on the furniture.
All of a sudden.
He felt an itch on the back of his hand.
Roger lowered his head to take a look and was instantly amused-
An ether devouring Dragon had appeared out of nowhere and was now clamoring and dancing on the back of his hand!
Roger smiled.
He slapped her with the back of his hand.
..
[you have killed 1 ether devouring Dragon]
[you have gained 1 XP.]
[your reflex speed has been slightly improved.]
..
“It’s comfortable now.”
Roger felt great!
“What are you doing?”
A curious voice was heard.
Roger looked up.
A head of long, fiery-red hair entered his sight.
Big eyes.
Long eyelashes.
Oval face.
An explosive figure.
At this point, Roger’s eyes stopped looking down, because the man was only wearing loose pajamas.
On the data bar.
..
[ sixth sense: you have met Shar, the sorceress. Her level is between 36 – 41, and she is suspected to have demonic blood. ]
..
[ sixth sense: you noticed that Shar, the sorceress, was not wearing ... ]
..
Roger quickly looked away.
His sixth sense was too sharp.
He had no choice but to restrain himself.
“It’s just an annoying bug.”
Roger clutched the body of the ether devouring Dragon in his palm without a change in expression and asked, ”
“Can we start the treatment?”
Shar looked at the black coffin beside him thoughtfully and yawned lazily.
“Of course you can.”
“I’ll say the ugly words first. If you can’t satisfy me, you’d better have a flying scroll on you.”
She turned around and walked into the inner room.
Roger quickly followed him.
..
10 minutes later.
In the dimly lit room.
There were three incense sticks burning in the corner, and the smell of the essential oils filled the air, giving off a somewhat charming smell.
Shar lay on the long water bed and urged, ”
“Hurry up.”
Roger unhurriedly pressed his right hand on her hip.
A large amount of Qi gathered here.
With Roger’s efforts.
It seeped out bit by bit.
..
[ prompt: you have used ‘Qi’ to perform local treatment on the target. ]
..
“Eh?”
Shar, who was lying on her stomach, exclaimed in surprise.
Not long after.
The female Warlock’s continuous happy hums could be heard from the room.
..
