I draw a card first

Chapter 393 Baron Landon
"Master, we are here!"

With a crisp voice, the beautiful female coachman pressed the brake and parked the animal cart in front of a black stone three-story building.

When the car was completely stable, the side door opened slowly, and a tall and straight figure stepped down gently from inside.

He was wearing a long black windbreaker and a black top hat. Fine raindrops fell on the black windbreaker, and instantly slid down the shimmering fabric without leaving a trace.

And this scene caused a guard at the entrance of the building to move his eyes and hurried over.

"Sir, what can I do for you?"

"I'm looking for Baron Landon, I have an appointment."

The guard carefully glanced at the man in front of him from the corner of his eye.

The stable and mature temperament is obviously not like an ordinary person. Therefore, he hastily thought about it carefully, and then he seemed to suddenly think of something, and asked tentatively:

"You are Mr. Aiwen?"

Although after some changes, Aiwen, who was still about [-]% similar to the main body, nodded slightly, then pressed the brim of his hat, and walked into the building in front of him under the guidance of the guards.

Following the guidance of the maid in the house, he quickly walked through the curved corridor and entered a warm hall.

There is a purple flame burning in the dark blue oval stove, and the fresh mushroom wood emits a faint crackling sound and a faint strange smell from time to time.

Aiwen, who was not used to this weird smell, found a wicker chair a little away from the heater and sat down. A few minutes later, the dark elf servant who also used magic props to transform into the room also came to the room, standing quietly and silently. behind him.

The light of the flame slightly illuminated half of Ivan's face, but the other side was completely hidden in the darkness.

As the light danced, for some reason, the maid quietly looked at Aiwen beside him, and the maid who was about to bring over snacks and hot drinks suddenly felt a chill that seemed to come from the depths of her soul.

It's like... staring straight into the unknown abyss!

Fortunately, noticing the maid's momentary loss of focus, the dark elf attendant suddenly stepped forward and calmly took the tray from her hand.

A certain daze flashed in the eyes of the awakened maid, and then she nodded to the beautiful woman in front of her in a daze, and retreated cautiously.

Ignoring the little episode that happened, Aiwen stared at the purple fire and began to sort out the situation in front of him.

With absolute strength, he easily obtained the basic knowledge about the world he needed from a small village.

In a sense, this is a place that is a bit like Earth once upon a time.

The reason for saying this is that this place is different from other common planes of life where a hundred flowers bloom. In the entire known world, there is currently only one kind of intelligent life—the Went people.

Perhaps in ancient times, the race for survival required other contestants, but it is clear that, at least for now, this fierce competition has decided the current champion.

Defeating all their opponents, the Went people, as winners, have completely dominated the entire ecosystem by virtue of their civilization and wisdom, and established countless countries to fight each other from time to time.

Especially in the last few hundred years, with the development of technology, a super war will break out in almost a hundred years or so.

With a deeper understanding of the overall situation of the Winter people, Aiwen also discovered many interesting places, such as... This is a world without "gods and demons".

There seems to be a very unique rule in this world, that is, any existence beyond a certain level of power will be greatly suppressed, which has caused this world to embark on a completely different path from Silithus from the very beginning

——Magic modification of mechanical civilization!
This is a rare path that few planes in this crystal-walled universe would choose. More often than not, it is developed for the purpose of expansion after other systems have developed to a certain extent.

It's not unheard of to purely develop magical transformation technology, but it's relatively rare.

Because this kind of civilization wants to develop, there is actually a necessary hidden condition, that is--common and huge reserves of low-level magic materials!

There is no doubt that the Winter people are such a group of lucky people sitting on a treasure mountain.

A magical material as common as iron ore on the earth has achieved their current alternative prosperity. The horizontal comparison is not worse than the earth during World War I, and even surpasses it in some aspects.

This prompts someone to start generating new ideas

——Inspect this place. If it’s suitable, then just give up the original plan and establish the first plane trading point here!

The reason for making such a change is, on the one hand, that the native civilization of this plane has reached a certain level and is fully capable of supporting such a large-scale trade, and these cheap and huge reserves of materials are the best deals object.

On the other hand, as a god, he also took a fancy to this desert of faith.

Although the local Wente people have inevitably had various beliefs born in the course of countless years of development, and some demon gods and evil gods who randomly throw seeds of belief into the endless star world may also have some influence on this place.

But the fact that the plane itself did not give birth to real local gods is enough reason for Aiwen to focus on this place.

The only embarrassing thing is that the avatar is currently the avatar of the World Destroyer Dragon, and does not know the Holy Light.

Therefore, the spread of faith this time is definitely out of the question, and we can only wait until next time to figure out how to deal with it, but it is still necessary to have a thorough understanding of the overall situation.

Of course, there are many other reasons, at least for someone who wants to open up, this place is a gold mine waiting to be reclaimed.

In fact, speaking of it, the history of many plane chambers of commerce is actually a lot of such routines, because they discovered a valuable new plane by accident.

After all, only this kind of unequal monopoly trade is the most profitable.

Just like those black-hearted European businessmen in the Age of Discovery who exchanged glass balls with Africans for gold, diamonds and hard work.

"However, it is better to confirm some things again."

Looking away from the row of electric crossbows of different models placed on the wall, Aiwen took a hot drink similar to cocoa unique to this world from his attendant.

Under the cover of the thick mint breath, he suddenly turned his head slightly and looked at the wooden door beside him.

In the next second, the wooden door was pushed open, and a burly figure strode in.

"Sorry, Mr. Ivan, for keeping you waiting!"

The person coming was naturally Baron Langdon. From Ivan's perspective, this man was about four meters tall, and he was also a real strong man among the Winter people whose average height was over three meters.

At the same time, there is a faint special energy reaction on his body, although it is not strong, it is completely different from the civilians and soldiers he met before.

This is what Ivan found interesting,

In this world, obviously under the cover of the magic-modified mechanical civilization on the surface, there is still a special cultivation system that is unknown to ordinary people.

And as someone who was the only one who discovered the existence of an energy response after scanning the whole city with his mind, Aiwen's visit this time was just a test. He wanted to see what was going on.
