Chapter 479: Is the Star-Burst Array moving?

Half an hour later, the noble man stood by the road holding a pile of aphrodisiacs, hair-growth stimulants, and facial masks, waving with a face full of smiles. Silver Coin returned with a bitter face, dragging the other party's luxurious carriage while unwillingly leading the horse.

"What happened? Why do you have a bitter face? Did you lose money?" Nai Ge Li Si asked in surprise.

Silver Coin had a bitter face, "No, hurry up, hurry up. If we don't leave, I'll laugh out loud. It won't be good if the customer sees it."

Oh, oh, oh. The group led the carriage away, and only then did Silver Coin return to his normal expression, pulling a money bag, a magic crystal card, and a transfer deed for the luxurious carriage from his bosom.

Nai Ge Li Si asked in confusion, "What's the situation? Didn't he want to buy me? How did it end up like you emptied him out?"

Silver Coin laughed, "Pretty much. Even the carriage was mortgaged to me. I guess he doesn't have much left."

Anthony and Du Luo Ke leaned over and asked curiously, "What did you say to him? How did buying a pet turn into mortgaging a carriage?"

Ang also leaned over, the little zombie and little angel also leaned over, Xia Xia Mala and Ge Lei leaned over, and the Lord of Terror also leaned over. Everyone wanted to hear how Silver Coin bluffed people.

Silver Coin explained, "I asked him, what are you buying a baby dragon for? He said to give it to his little lover, the other party likes small animals. Snakes, lizards, and the like. A baby dragon is something she's seeing for the first time, so he wanted to buy one. Oh, by the way, Lord Nai Ge, this country has a habit: pets wearing hats are defaulted to be for sale. You'd better take off your hat."

Nai Ge Li Si hurriedly took off its hat.

Silver Coin continued, "So I analyzed it for him: to please a little lover, sending small animals is not good, it distracts her love, and then her heart won't be on you. Moreover, baby dragons are too smart and will remember your privacy and talk about it everywhere, such as impotence or something, how bad is that."

Everyone looked at Nai Ge Li Si and nodded. This little yellow dragon could do such a thing.

"When I mentioned impotence, his expression changed, and I knew the opportunity had come. I invited him to try the aphrodisiac invented by Sa Wa," Silver Coin said.

"No, when did Sa Wa succeed? Don't poison people with those broken things she invented," Nai Ge Li Si said with disdain.

That spendthrift pharmacist had spent so much budget, the only thing that could be considered a success was the insecticide. But the reason the insecticide could succeed wasn't because of her. Those medicines she refined herself, having no effect was already the best. Those that had an effect, light ones made people have diarrhea, and heavy ones made people have diarrhea with diarrhea.

"She added some Upgrade Beans, the effect is actually quite good," Silver Coin said.

Alright, even Upgrade Beans were added, no wonder it had an effect.

Such a miraculous medicine was how attractive to a middle-aged noble man suffering from unspeakable hidden illnesses. He immediately expressed that he wanted to buy it.

Silver Coin asked him again, "Then what gift are you preparing for your little lover? Look at this skin-tenderizing water, how is it? How are the pore-cleansing and anti-wrinkle masks? They are all the most popular products on the Warlock Alliance. You try it."

Silver Coin took some skin-tenderizing water and applied it to the middle-aged noble's hand, quietly casting a Pore-Cleansing Spell. The effect was immediate, instantly whitening by several degrees.

A middle-aged man had such an effect. If it were applied to the little lover's fair and tender face, that would be a wonderful thing.

Thus, the middle-aged noble mortgaged the luxurious carriage, and even wanted to mortgage several servants and grooms, buying the products Silver Coin promoted, and never mentioned the baby dragon again.

Hearing Silver Coin finish the whole process, Nai Ge Li Si and the others cursed, "Profiteer."

After a while, Ge Lei quietly found Silver Coin, "Lord Silver Coin, are the effects of the mask and skin-tenderizing water really that good?"

After Silver Coin dismissed Ge Lei, Lu Se also quietly found Silver Coin, "Lord Silver Coin, that... is that really effective?"

"What that? Oh, you mean the aphro..." Lu Se covered Silver Coin's mouth with lightning speed, fully showing the speed of a high-rank Sword Saint.

The flying car was a Warlock product. Although many mages drove it themselves, it wasn't suitable to drive into Magic Star City. But the luxurious carriage didn't have this concern. Everyone sat in the carriage, went up to a medium-sized lifting elevator, and went up along with the carriage.

Magic Star City was much livelier than usual recently, but it wasn't very noisy, because the population density here was low to begin with, and it wouldn't be noisy even if it doubled.

The forty-eight-lane road was as wide as a square, and on both sides of the road were garden-like manors. Just coming out of the manor and crossing the road was enough exercise for a day.

Beside the lifting elevator was an inspection checkpoint. Some mages were checking invitation letters, while other mages were casting Eyes of Perspective and Eyes of Detection, checking luggage and carriages.

Silver Coin observed and then fed back, "I see invitation letters of other colors. It seems that the invitation letters are graded. The team in front is holding blue invitation letters. They can only bring ten people in. Their number of people is too many, and they are choosing people to stay behind."

Silver Coin handed over the two invitation letters from their side. The inspecting mage saw the invitation letters, and he, who was originally lazy, subconsciously straightened his waist and quietly tidied his mage robe, his face piled with smiles, "May I ask which two lords have come?"

From his change in attitude, Silver Coin realized that these two invitation letters should be quite high-level. But did this kind of invitation letter correspond to big shots? Did he need to announce their names? Wouldn't that expose their identities? It would be very inconvenient to cause trouble.

"Cough!" With a muffled cough, Anthony walked over and asked majestically, "Can a lord's name be asked casually?"

The inspecting mage was startled. Anthony's tone and prestige were undoubtedly those of a big shot. For such a big shot's lord, what level of big shot must that be?

The mage hurriedly explained, "No, no, because the VIP invitation letter corresponds to VIP etiquette, so I want to know the VIP's name to make corresponding arrangements. However, if the VIP doesn't want to reveal their identity, they can also leave from the Magic Tablet side. But the Magic Tablet needs Arcane-level magic to activate. Those who can activate the Magic Tablet are the most honorable guests of Magic Star City."

Ge Lei leaned over and whispered, "It's aimed at Warlocks. Warlocks borrow too much external force, and their own magic is not strong. Either announce their identity and enter the city openly, or if they don't want to reveal their identity, they can only enter the city by strength. Warlocks find it hard to find people with this kind of magic. There was no such rule here before. It should be a new arrangement aimed at the Mage Assembly."

"Then should we go through the Magic Tablet?" Anthony asked. Ge Lei was more familiar with this place, so it was better to refer to her opinion.

"Go through the Magic Tablet. If you don't want to reveal your identity, want to keep a low profile, and want to enter the VIP channel, you can only go through the Magic Tablet. Otherwise, we might not even know where the thing will appear," Ge Lei said.

This was also a problem. They came here to find the thing that could break the Silence Barrier. If they didn't go through the VIP channel and mixed with ordinary people, they might miss a lot of information.

Having made up their minds, the group turned toward the Magic Tablet.

Arriving at the so-called Magic Tablet, everyone finally understood what it was. It was a magic crane that lifted the city wall. As long as you used magic to drive it to lift the city wall, everyone could enter.

"Very simple," the Lord of Terror said, gesturing.

"This is simple? This is simple? Simple your head, simple your head." Nai Ge Li Si was so angry it patted its head, making a clanging sound, as if it were empty inside without a brain.

"It's simple to say it's simple, and difficult to say it's difficult. It's purely magic output, without any tricks. Sometimes when it's inconvenient, I don't dare to go this way. Of course, most of the time, I take the internal teleportation array," Ge Lei said.

As she spoke, she rubbed her hands and walked to the Magic Tablet to output a burst of magic.

The magic crane creaked and lifted half a meter high, then stopped moving, and instead slowly descended.

"Just this? How can we pass if it's so low? Drill through?" Nai Ge Li Si asked in confusion.

Ge Lei retreated without changing her expression and said, "No, I was just demonstrating for you. That's how to activate it."

Nai Ge Li Si poked her without good intentions, "You just couldn't lift it, right?"

Ge Lei said righteously, "I'm just recovering from a serious injury, it's normal that I can't lift it."

Nai Ge Li Si was choked there. Did broken hands and feet count as a serious injury? Of course it did, serious to the point that it couldn't be more serious. But now that it was healed, it didn't affect her performance.

Ang walked to the Magic Tablet and output a burst of magic. His face didn't turn red and his breath didn't shorten, and the city wall lifted smoothly to the highest point.

Everyone walked in easily, and the city wall slowly descended.

Following the passage and turning a corner, they saw more than a dozen gorgeously dressed staff members standing at the exit. As soon as they saw Ang's group come out, they immediately clapped and cheered, "Welcome, welcome, warm welcome. Welcome, distinguished guests, to Magic Star City. The Mage Guild is at your service. Please come this way."

Everyone was dumbfounded. Anthony and the others had black lines all over their foreheads, "Didn't they say going through the Magic Tablet would be low-profile? What kind of ghost is this?"

Ge Lei was also dumbfounded, "What kind of mess is this? There was no such thing before. What are they doing?"

She finally realized that the current Magic Star City was different from when she was still here.

Refusing the enthusiastic hospitality of those staff members and bruising the eye sockets of two of them, these people who called themselves the Mage Guild finally stopped.

The group got into the luxurious carriage and drove toward a certain place according to Ge Lei's instructions.

Driving past a small manor, Ge Lei lifted the curtain and took a look, immediately saying, "Don't stop, drive past."

After driving past, Ge Lei explained, "It's not my people. The secret mark on the flower bed at the entrance hasn't been changed. I don't know if it was sold or occupied by the enemy."

Anthony nodded. It was a very effective warning method. For example, looking at the window, flowers meant the partner wasn't there and welcomed stealing, no flowers meant it wasn't convenient, and even flowers of different colors could represent different meanings. It was very practical.

Following Ge Lei's instructions again, they turned to several other places. Either they were abandoned or occupied by strangers. In one place, people of unknown identity were wandering around nearby.

Anthony found the outermost one, drove the carriage over, opened the door, grabbed the other party into the carriage, interrogated them, washed their memory, and threw them off the carriage. The whole process didn't even require the carriage to stop.

"It seems your people have all scattered. Why is your organization's name so strange, 'Seminar on Why Truth Is Like This'? Abbreviated as Truth Seminar?" Anthony said strangely.

Ge Lei asked, "Don't you think it sounds good?"

"Sounds good, sounds good. It sounds as good as the 'Full and Bored Team' and the 'Salted Fish Team'," Anthony said perfunctorily.

"We were originally just a mutual aid group organized by a group of mages pursuing truth. The name was very casual at the time. Later, I suddenly had an epiphany, my magic level advanced by leaps and bounds, and more and more people joined us. One year, at the Mage Assembly, I negated the truth of a Truth Mage, so the Council invited me to join as one of the five councilors."

"I thought joining the Council and becoming a councilor would make it more convenient for me to pursue truth, but I didn't expect a pile of trivial matters to come to my door. Dealing with things every day consumed a lot of my time, forcing me to run out on my own in a fit of anger."

"Ao La Luo Ke Si Te was a friend I knew in the mutual aid group who I got along with quite well, so after running out, I went to his house as a guest. One day, after eating a kind of fruit, I fainted. When I woke up, I had already been put on a Soul Prohibition Ring."

"He was afraid I would curse, so he cut off my tongue. I resisted many times, but each time I was stopped by the swordsman beside him. My hands and feet were also cut off at that time."

The Lord of Terror couldn't help but speak, "Was it the one standing behind him in the flying car that day? That guy is very weak, probably just a Great Swordsman. Later, he was scared away by me. How could he hurt you?"

"With the Soul Prohibition Ring, I couldn't exert my full strength," Ge Lei said, "I 'saw' him using a communicator to communicate with others, with content about taking me back and receiving rewards, so he brought me along, probably to collect the reward."

Returning now to see, the places belonging to Ge Lei had all been divided up, and she didn't know if the people under her had been caught, killed, or had run away themselves.

As a loose mutual aid group, the core was only Ge Lei herself. She disappeared, and the organization collapsed.

Anthony couldn't help but complain, "Are you playing house? How can power struggles tolerate gentle silence? You probably never thought anyone would plot against you, right?"

Ge Lei smiled bitterly, "We were just a mutual aid society, who would have thought anyone would have designs on me."

"You should have thought of this long ago. From the moment you rejected the other party's truth, you should have realized someone would target you. Even inviting you into the assembly and letting you become the fifth force was intentional. Sigh, children these days are too naive," Anthony couldn't help but complain.

"Forget it, forget it. The child doesn't know any better. Just be more careful in the future," Silver Coin smoothed things over.

However, everyone knew that some things have no "future." If they hadn't been lucky enough to run into Ang, even if she had been rescued, her life would have been ruined.

Just then, Lu Se, who was driving the carriage outside, suddenly knocked on the carriage wall and said, "Uh, everyone, look outside. Take a look, is the Star-Burst Array moving?"

Sticking their heads out to look at the sky, they saw the Star-Burst Array hanging in the sky beginning to shift at a very slow speed.
