Chapter 430: There's Actually Such a Good Thing!

~7 min read 1,307 words

You have to know that gold coins are very valuable nowadays. It can often amount to a person's entire income for a whole month.

At least for those adventurers, it would take the commissions from ten or twenty solo missions, or several large-scale missions, to gather this much, and that's only if they didn't eat or drink.

Would anyone really spend money on such a high price?

"Who cares? Someone will definitely come, and there certainly will be people who come."

"Besides, haven't you noticed? After coming to this world, quite a few people have become pretentious for various reasons like talents, magic, and so on."

"I think we should set up a trap to wake them up, lest they lose their lives because of it in the future. Speaking of which, they should even be thanking me."

Lan Qingyou didn't care at all about everyone's doubts and revealed an expression of disdain.

If one were to translate the above words, the general meaning would just be "not scamming the poor" and "letting willing victims take the bait."

Hearing this, everyone was left momentarily speechless.

Forget it, they would just go secretly later.

Everyone held their drinks, wine glasses, and other things in silence.

It seemed they had all reached some kind of tacit understanding.

Anyway, what the other party said made sense. There would be a lot of people at that time, so they could just leave immediately after they were done. Who would recognize who?

...

"Let's go, let's go. Time to go home."

After spending about two hours finishing this meal, everyone dispersed.

However, just as Lan Qingyou walked to the teleportation array and was about to leave, the teleportation array lit up first.

The teleportation array was just like that, acting as a long and narrow passage.

When someone was using this teleportation array, whether teleporting over or teleporting away, others couldn't use it.

Therefore, Lan Qingyou floated to the side to make 'way' for the other party.

Swish.

When the person appeared, Lan Qingyou prepared to enter and leave.

"Eh! Isn't this the Tower Witch?"

Hearing her nickname, Lan Qingyou, who was originally walking inside, stopped and turned to look. Only then did she realize that the person who came out of the teleportation array was actually an acquaintance.

Though they weren't that well-acquainted anyway.

"Holger, what are you doing coming to this kind of place alone?"

That's right, the person who arrived was none other than the commander of the Spade Knight Order from the Knight Guild, the Famine Knight, Holger.

But precisely because of this, Lan Qingyou felt it was strange.

After all, as a commander, this guy rarely went out alone, especially to a place like the Joy Restaurant, which had been managed by Gu Xiaobei into a holy land for dining gatherings for major factions after the migration.

"Yeah, I lost a bet with a friend, so I became the sole errand boy coming here."

Holger helplessly spread his hands.

He didn't hide the reason why he appeared here at all; he was even very frank about it.

"Is that so? Then carry on."

No matter what, he was an opponent she had fought against before. After exchanging a few brief pleasantries, Lan Qingyou prepared to leave.

However, the other party didn't seem to have any intention of letting Lan Qingyou go.

"I saw the announcement your Witch race made earlier. I wonder if there are any large flying familiars that can be used as mounts you could introduce?"

"As you know, just like a witch would feel something is missing without a broom, a knight looks equally ridiculous without a mount."

Holger smiled.

He found it very surprising to run into the Tower Witch today.

But since he had encountered her, he might as well ask in passing. He might even be able to discuss it with a few brothers when he got back.

"Ah, about that. There are a few, like Griffins, Wyverns, and Pegasi. They can all be used as mounts."

Griffin! Wyvern! Pegasus!

With every name that came out of Lan Qingyou's mouth, Holger's little heart pounded fiercely.

Tsk tsk, to think he could actually encounter legendary creatures from the Blue Star Era in this kind of alternate world.

No... according to the verbal account of the Workshop Witch, Elisa, perhaps these things were 'smuggled' from Karim to Blue Star in the past?

It's just that due to being weak in numbers or lacking a population to reproduce, they eventually died out and went extinct, leading them to become existences in legends. That could also be possible.

But putting Blue Star matters aside, no matter what, with these magical creatures, the flying knight order in his heart could officially be established.

Seeing the other party moved, Lan Qingyou immediately struck while the iron was hot, explaining to him the procedure for calling them and the fees required.

Listening to this, Holger nodded repeatedly.

What price.

The fact that the Witch race had such resources and brought them out was already giving everyone a lot of face. You actually still care about the price!

That would be too insincere.

That kind of person wasn't even fit to go on the platform. If you don't call them, there are plenty of people who will.

"By the way, doesn't your Knight Guild currently have four major knight orders? I have someone here who works in animal husbandry. She should have quite a few magical creatures on hand that can be used as mounts. If you're interested, you can ask her."

Seeing that her first sales pitch was effective, Lan Qingyou was still very satisfied.

So she took out her cards, waved them, and recommended Freya to the other party.

After all, Freya was in that line of business. An extra path to wealth meant extra funds.

With more funds for her clients, the witches could also get rich more easily, right?

In fact, the witches had to supply a batch of Strength Potions to Freya's farm every week.

Strength Potions, as the name implied, were potions that could make one strong.

After receiving them, Freya would directly dilute them with water and mix them into the fodder for those captive magical creatures to eat. This would also allow them to grow strong and sturdy, and be ready for market sooner.

"There's actually such a good thing! Then thank you so much!"

Holger, who had originally just wanted to ask, suddenly had his eyes turn from ten-watt light bulbs into thirty-watt light bulbs upon hearing this, shining so brightly that Lan Qingyou could barely keep her eyes open.

After pushing the contact to the other party, Lan Qingyou immediately fled.

Could this guy have some kind of incredible talent or magic to actually make his eyes shine so brightly?

Tower: "@The Lovers, I recommended you to Holger. He should contact you later."

After returning to the Sanctuary, Lan Qingyou immediately sent a message in the manor.

Freya, who had originally been taking a walk in the pasture because she had just finished eating, also replied immediately upon seeing it.

The Lovers: "Holger? Who's that?"

Tower: "The commander of the knight order I fought against in the competition previously."

Knight Commander?

Oh, that old man who surrendered after being smashed by rocks by the witch during the round of 16.

She had some impression of him.

The Lovers: "I remember now, but why did you recommend him to me?"

Tower: "Aren't you doing livestock breeding? Their knight order needs mounts, so I figured since you have a lot of magical creatures, you should be able to pick out some docile magical creatures for them to use as mounts or something."

The Lovers: "I see. Then thank you. If the deal goes through later, I'll give you a kickback (Heart)."
