Chapter 479: Is the Starburst Array moving?

Half an hour later, the noble man stood by the roadside, holding a pile of virility medicine, hair growth serum, and facial masks, waving with a face full of smiles. Silver Coin returned with a bitter face, reluctantly leading the horse and dragging the other party's luxurious carriage.

"What happened? Why are you pulling a long face? Did you lose money?" Nai Ge Li Si asked in surprise.

Silver Coin had a bitter face. "No, hurry, hurry, let's go. If we don't leave, I'm going to laugh out loud. It's not good to be seen by the client."

Oh, oh, oh. After the group led the carriage far away, Silver Coin returned to his normal expression, taking out 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? Wasn't he going to buy me? How come it looks like you emptied him out?"

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

Anthony and Du Luo Ken 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, as did the little zombie, the little angel, Shamala, Ge Lei, and the Terror Lord. 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, as she likes small animals. Snakes, lizards, and the like. A baby dragon is something she's never seen before, so he wanted to buy one. Oh, right, Lord Nai Ge, this country has a habit: pets wearing hats are defaulted as being for sale. You'd better take off your hat."

Nai Ge Li Si quickly took off his hat.

Silver Coin continued, "So I analyzed it with him: to please a little lover, giving a small animal is bad, as it distracts her affection, and then her heart won't be on you. And baby dragons are too smart; they will record your privacy and talk about it everywhere, like impotence or erectile dysfunction, how bad is that."

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

"When I mentioned impotence and erectile dysfunction, his expression changed, and I knew the opportunity had come. I asked him to try the virility medicine invented by Alchemist Sawa," Silver Coin said.

"No, when did Alchemist Sawa succeed? Those broken things she invented, don't poison people to death," Nai Ge Li Si said in disdain.

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

"She added some upgrade beans, the effect is still quite good," Silver Coin said.

Fine, 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 about it? How about the pore-cleansing and anti-wrinkle mask? They are all the most popular products in the Warlock Alliance. Why don't you try them?"

Silver Coin got some skin-tenderizing water and wiped it on the middle-aged noble's hand, quietly casting a cleansing spell. The effect was immediate, instantly whitening it by several shades.

A middle-aged man had such an effect; if it were wiped on the little lover's fair and tender face, how wonderful a thing would that be.

So the middle-aged noble mortgaged the luxurious carriage, and even wanted to mortgage several servants and coachmen, 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 sent Ge Lei away, Lu Se also quietly found Silver Coin. "Lord Silver Coin, that... is that really effective?"

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

The flying car was a warlock's product. Although many mages drove them 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 together 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 even if it doubled, it wouldn't be noisy.

The forty-eight-lane road was as wide as a plaza, 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 elevator was an inspection checkpoint. Some mages were checking invitation letters, while others 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 the invitation letters are graded. The team in front is holding blue invitation letters, and they can only bring ten people in. Their number of people is too many, and they are choosing who to leave behind."

Silver Coin handed over the two invitation letters from their side. The inspecting mage saw the invitation letter, and the originally lazy and loose mage subconsciously straightened his waist and quietly tidied his mage robe, a smile piling up on his face. "May I ask which two lords are coming?"

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 they 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 quickly explained, "No, no, because the VIP invitation letter corresponds to VIP etiquette, so I wanted 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 Power Stele side. But the Magic Power Stele needs Arcane-level magic power to activate. Those who can activate the Magic Power Stele are the most distinguished 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 power isn't strong. Either announce your identity and enter the city openly, or if you don't want to reveal your identity, you can only enter the city by strength. It's hard for warlocks to find people with this kind of magic power. There wasn't this rule here before; it should be a new arrangement aimed at the Mage Assembly."

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

"Go to the Magic Power Stele. 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 to the Magic Power Stele. 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 take the VIP channel and mixed with ordinary people, they might miss a lot of information.

Having made up his mind, the group turned toward the Magic Power Stele.

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

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

"This is simple? This is simple? Simple your head, simple your head." Nai Ge Li Si was so angry he patted its head, making it clatter, as if it were empty and brainless inside.

"It's simple if you say it's simple, and difficult if you say it's difficult. It's purely magic power output, without any tricks. When I'm inconvenient, I don't dare to go here either. Of course, most of the time, I take the internal teleportation array," Ge Lei said.

While speaking, she rubbed her hands and walked to the Magic Power Stele for a burst of output.

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

"Just this? How do we get past 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 you activate it."

Nai Ge Li Si poked through her without a good tone. "You can't lift it, right?"

Ge Lei said righteously, "I just recovered 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 they did, serious to the point they couldn't be more serious. But now that they were recovered, it didn't affect her performance.

Ang walked to the Magic Power Stele for a burst of output, his face not red and his breath not short. The city wall lifted smoothly to the highest point.

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

Turning a corner along the passage, they saw more than a dozen well-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 dedicated to serving you. Please come this way."

Everyone was stunned. Anthony and the others had black lines all over their foreheads. "Didn't they say going to the Magic Power Stele would be low-key? What kind of ghost is this?"

Ge Lei was also stunned. "What kind of messy stuff? There wasn't this kind of thing before. What are they doing?"

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

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 squeezed into the luxurious carriage and drove toward a certain place according to Ge Lei's directions.

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

After driving past, Ge Lei explained, "Not my people. The secret mark in the flower garden 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 windows, flowers meant the partner wasn't there and they were welcome to sneak in; no flowers meant it wasn't convenient. They could even use flowers of different colors to represent different meanings, which was very practical.

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

Anthony targeted the one on the outermost periphery. The carriage drove over, opened the door, grabbed the other party into the carriage, interrogated them, wiped 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 force'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, 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 also 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 by myself in a fit of anger."

"Ao Luo Luo Ke Si Te is a friend I knew in the mutual aid group who I played well with, so after running out, I went to his house as a guest. One day, after eating a fruit, I fainted. When I woke up, I had already been put on a Soul Forbidden 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 Terror Lord couldn't help but speak. "Was it the one standing behind him on 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 Forbidden Ring, I couldn't exert my full strength," Ge Lei said. "I 'saw' him communicating with others on the communicator, with content about taking me back and receiving rewards, so he took me, probably just to receive the reward."

Coming back now to see, the places belonging to Ge Lei had all been divided up by others. 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 warmth and silence? You probably never thought anyone would plot against you, right?"

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

"You should have thought of it long ago. From the moment you negated the other party's truth, you should have thought that someone would have designs on you. Even pulling you into the council and making you the fifth force was intentional. Sigh, children these days are too naive," Anthony couldn't help but complain.

"Forget it, forget it, children don't know any better, just be careful in the future," Silver Coin smoothed things over.

But everyone knew that some things didn't have a future. If it weren't for the good luck of running into Ang, even if she were saved by someone, she would be a useless person for the rest of her life.

Just at this moment, Lu Se, who was driving the carriage outside, suddenly knocked on the carriage box and said, "Uh, everyone look outside. Look, is the Starburst Array moving?"

Peering out to look at the sky, they saw the Starburst Array hanging in the sky, moving at a very slow speed. ===== CHAPTER 480 =====
