Magic Merchant Racial Anecdote

On the other side, Poseidon City in the middle of the night, the home of Eli and Werther.

After confirming that Ned was 'kidnapped', Werther drove the suspension car back to Avery. At this time, everyone was watching the group's every move through the surveillance system.

Things were still under control at first, until after the space magic in the theater was activated, the monitoring system on Ned's body was cut off, leaving only the one around Borg still operating normally.

Alai hesitated for a while looking at the screen that instantly went black, but still frowned, and the call system dialed Ned's communication.But after the communication is dialed out... it shows that the communication failed.

"Strange..." Alai whispered to himself, frowning even tighter.It stands to reason that the system communication can cross planes. Could it be that Ned went to an undeveloped plane?Impossible...or is Ned in danger?

Alai touched the pure black system bracelet on his wrist, thought carefully, and then dialed Weixi's communication number again.

The other side was connected quickly, and the floating screen in the air flickered, revealing Weixi's face with a faint smile as usual. "Alai, we met again so soon. It seems that the plan is not going well?" Before Alai could speak, Weixi on the screen asked.

"Hello, Weixi, it seems that you have expected this part." Alai changed to a more comfortable sitting position, leaned on the sofa and said, without the slightest sign of impatience when he first found out that Ned could not be contacted.

"It's not expected, but I still know a little about this organization." Weixi blinked and smiled.

"Just some? I don't think so." Alai's tone became uncontrollably sharp. He took a deep breath and asked, "I can't contact Ned now. I think you probably know the reason?"

"Indeed." Wei Xi nodded with a serious expression, and even the usual smile on the corner of his mouth was restrained: "Do you know anything about the 'Bloodstone' star in the fourth district?" He asked.

A Lai's face changed, and he straightened up from the sofa, "I know a little... Could it be that Ned was taken there?!" He couldn't help exclaiming.

Everyone in the room was startled by Alai's voice, and the little dragon cub even flapped its wings and flew up, whirling around in a circle, and stopped by Alai's hand.

"Yes." Wei Xi said with certainty, "He was taken to the 'Blood Stone Planet', and he should be waiting for 'delivery' right now." Wei Xi added.

Alai gasped. As a registered working space magician who graduated from the Magic Tower, he certainly knew the existence of the 'Bloodstone Star'.In fact, almost all wizards in the four districts know such a place.

"Is this the real reason why you must have us participate in the plan?" Alai asked.

"That's right. After all, it's not easy to find a magician who can use space magic at will. More importantly, this candidate cannot have a deep relationship with the Magicians Association." Wei Xi said.

This conversation, which was like playing a riddle, made everyone confused.

Avery hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't help asking: "Wait, I know it's not a good time, but this matter concerns my people, can you explain to me what's going on now? ?”

Hearing this, Alai interrupted the conversation with Wei Xi, glanced at Ai Li, hesitated for a moment, and planned to explain something: "This matter is a bit complicated to say. Simply put, it is the place where they took Ned away." It's called 'Bloodstone Star', and it's rumored that there's always been a black market for selling magical creatures." Alai explained slowly.

"That is to say, Ned was sent to the prisoner's headquarters by them now? Is that so?" Ai Li tilted his head and confirmed to Alai.

"It's not considered a headquarters, at most it's a trading place, or...'warehouse'." Alai corrected.

"Isn't Nanid very dangerous now? You couldn't contact him just now because he is already..." Avery said worriedly, shrinking his shoulders.

"No, he shouldn't be in danger yet...but he won't be sure later." Ah Lai glanced at Weixi on the screen before continuing, "The reason why we can't contact Ned is because, There is a special product on this planet called 'blood stone', this ore will form a special magical barrier after a certain processing, where it is, most of the technological products will be shielded."

"Technological products...do you mean the ones you use now?" Avery asked, pointing to the screen floating in the air.

"Almost." Alai didn't plan to tell Avery in detail, they just need to know the general idea.The key now is still...

"Since you already knew that Ned would be taken to the 'Bloodstone Planet', you must have a corresponding follow-up plan, right? Tell me, what should I do now?" Alai turned his attention back to Wei Xi, asked directly.

"You also know that the system cannot be used on the 'Bloodstone Planet'. The three districts have been trying to grasp the situation of this planet for a long time, but due to the 'Bloodstone', they have not been able to collect enough information. Even Without the help of a magician, we wouldn't even be able to get there." Vesey sighed.

"That's why you need us to join, a mage who can use space magic at will, and a dragon who can use annihilation magic..." Alai finally figured out Weixi's plan.

"You're very smart, Lai." Wei Xi praised with a smile.

"I can't stand your compliments. This plan is too risky. Don't you worry about Ned being in danger? I won't mention it. Ned is Nino's younger brother after all!" After wanting them to do something, Alai couldn't control his emotions more and more. He was played around by Wei Xi from the beginning to the end, and there was no truth in this person's mouth.

"Of course I know there will be danger." Weixi smiled faintly, with a look of determination in his eyes, "But I also said from the beginning that this plan must require you to come." No matter what it takes cost.

"Then what if I stop now?" Alai said angrily.

"Isn't that necessary? Things have come to this point, besides, I don't think you are unfamiliar with that place, right?" Weixi said with a smile as she knocked on the armrest of the seat.

"You investigated my past?" Alai narrowed his eyes and spoke in a bad tone.

"It's not really an investigation, I just want to find out what kind of person Ned chose as a partner." Wei Xi chuckled, "We'll talk about our issues later, shouldn't you start now?" Are you worried about Ned's safety?"

"I'll take Ned back right away. As for other things, you don't even need to think about it. I won't let him take the risk!" Alai said through gritted teeth.

"Really? Then you don't plan to take care of those poor mermaids? You know, if the goods are lost now, they won't be polite. Avery and Werther are your important customers, right?" Weixi was angry at Alai. Turning a blind eye to the general words, only calmly reminded.

A Lai took a deep breath, and hung up Weixi's communication unbearably.

"Alai?" Ai Li called out uneasily from the side. He also heard what Weixi said just now. Most of it is because of the Mermaid.

"Don't worry, I was just annoyed with Weixi just now, and I won't really leave things alone." Ah glanced at Avery, and comforted him casually.

He knew what Eli was worried about.But when the matter developed to this point, he could also see that Weixi's purpose was definitely not to save the poor mermaid tribe for a while, but to use this incident to attack the Magic Association of the fourth district.

But there is no need to tell Avery about this kind of thing.

Besides, Weixi's plan will undoubtedly cause Ned and the group of people to fight directly, and then drag the Dragon Clan into the water by the way... The plan is quite good, but who said that this is the only thing left at this point? Way gone?

he!Partial!No!

Alai figured out the key, and took out an old-fashioned magic instrument from his pocket.He lowered his head and touched the scratches on the shell of the magic instrument with complicated emotions. Since he bought the system, he hadn't used it for an unknown amount of time, and he didn't expect to be able to use it now.

He laughed at himself, and dialed Ned's number with the magic device.

The communication was successfully connected, but unfortunately no one answered.

Alai dialed the number again suspiciously, and finally remembered when he heard the beeping sound from the magic instrument, "By the way, Ned put his magic instrument in the space."

Alai patted his head in frustration. He was so mad at Weixi that he forgot that Ned's magic instrument was thrown in the corner of the space after he replaced it with the system.

That's all right, how do I contact Ned?A Lai scratched his hair, what is the magic formula used for communication?He hasn't used old-style magic for so long, he almost forgot the common formulas, and he can't draw a magic circle here... It seems that he still has to go back to space.

Thinking of this, Alai stood up from the sofa, "I have to go back, can you please take care of the little dragon cub for me?" Alai asked Avery and Werther.

"Of course, is there anything we can do to help?" Avery asked.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of the rest." Ah Lai said, and then reminded: "You still have to pay attention to Borg and Trey Young, although they probably won't make any big moves recently."

"No problem." Avery solemnly agreed, planning to discuss with his brothers later on what to do next. Although Alai will solve it, they, as members of the mermaid clan, cannot completely rely on others strength.One's own clansmen, of course, have to rely on themselves to protect them.

Alai picked up the little dragon cub and told him to stay at Avery's house obediently, "I'll come back to pick you up in two days, okay?" He discussed.

"Guji Guji." The little dragon cub patted his chest with one of his claws, meaning you can just go and don't worry about me.

Alai smiled, lowered his head and kissed the tip of the little dragon cub's nose, and then activated the magic, directly opened the door from the living room of Avery's house and returned to his own space.

It was almost midnight in the courtyard, and two crescent moons hung high in the sky, one red and one basket.It has only been two days since no one cleaned it, and the fallen leaves in late autumn have already laid a thick layer.In the space without the figures of Ned and the little dragon cub, it seemed too quiet.

Alai went straight to the second floor of the small building, the room next to the bedroom.

It was a study room, and it could be seen that Alai hadn't been in this room for a long time.Although the cleaning magic kept it clean, there was still a musty smell in the air.

The bookshelves in the study room are full of books, and the edge of each book page has been turned over repeatedly. Various notes and letters occupy an entire wall.All of them show how addicted the owners of these books were to the ocean of magic.

Alai pushed open the door of the study room, pulled out a copy of "Three Hundred Basic Magic Formulas" without hesitation, and pulled out a small wooden box from the bottom of the bookshelf, carrying these two things to the courtyard.

Magicians need to use magic circles and formulas when casting non-innately inherited magic. After many years, Alai still opened the dusty wooden box and took out a transparent crystal pen from inside.

Most magicians need the assistance of various tools when drawing a magic circle, because the size and curvature of the magic circle, and even whether the straight line is straight enough or the circle is round enough will affect the effect of magic.

But Lai never needed those.

He picked up the transparent crystal fountain pen, and the golden ink flowed slowly along the barrel. It was a special medium made by melting magic gold coins.

Golden lines were randomly drawn on the wooden table in the courtyard, with smooth arcs and sharp lines without hesitation. In just a few breaths, a nearly perfect communication magic circle was drawn.

"Obviously I forgot it with great difficulty." Alai muttered to himself with a pen, and then activated the communication magic.

In the soft golden light, Alai tentatively called out: "Ned, can you hear me?".

The author has something to say:

Try to solve it in the next chapter~ Ned and Alai will meet soon~
