Cultural Invasion In Different World

The Country of Steel, Oxenburg.

Dorothy took a deep breath of the magic particles in the air of Ossenburg. Sure enough, she was more used to the air of her own country.

Cough... That's why I don't like coming to the Iron Country.

It should be industrial waste gas.

Joshua patted Ciri on the back, trying to make the unaccustomed lady caster feel better.

The special atmosphere of the Iron Country really had a big impact on Ciri. Even Deathwing standing on her shoulder made a strange coughing sound, and his figure gradually became blurred.

Industrial waste gas? The air is filled with magic particles from the alchemy factory. Although it may be a little uncomfortable, it is harmless to the human body. Dorothy, as a local, firmly believes in this.

Harmless. Joshua glanced at Oxenburg.

This is the first time Joshua has come to the Country of Steel. The difference between this country and Nolan and Fallowsy is... the scenery of steel is power is revealed everywhere.

The architectural style is all composed of dark colors, without the colorful feeling of Nolan and Fallowsi at all, and 'chimneys' spraying light gray light particles can be seen everywhere.

This kind of scenery can also be seen across the river of gears in Nolan, but the entire city of Ossenburg is composed of various alchemy factories.

The air is filled with fragments of the original spar. According to the research of the Nolan Necromancer Association, human exposure to it will indeed lead to a certain failure of breathing ability.

An old voice sounded behind Qiao Xiu, accompanied by a few more 'cuckoos'.

But... I think I'm fine...

Dolusi looked at the dirty old man standing behind Qiao Xiu.

It's hard to imagine that Qiao Xiu actually called the man in gray, one of Nolan's seven sages, for the acquisition of the chamber of commerce!

The sage of Nolan came to visit the country of steel, and the local city lord should have come to greet him in person, but the gray-clothed man didn't care about these 'unnecessary rituals'.

Where is the headquarters of the Silver Flower Chamber of Commerce?

Joshua hailed a magic car from a post station on the street. As one of the most prosperous cities in the country of steel, Oxenburg seemed to have fully popularized magic cars.

Block 22.

The man in gray unceremoniously sat in the passenger seat, while Joshua, Ciri and Dorothy could only squeeze in the last row.

The magic guide car was originally designed so that only two people could sit in the back seat. Even though Joshua sat on the far left side, Ciri's body in the center still stuck to Joshua's body.

That's right, today's breakfast is honey bread.

Joshua could clearly feel the temperature coming from Ciri's body, as well as the faint fragrance.

What honey bread? Ciri didn't understand what Joshua said for a rare time.

Nothing.

Joshua shook his head and told the driver in the driver's seat the location of Block 22.

………………

Dorothy returned to the headquarters of the Silver Flower Chamber of Commerce in the magic car.

The front of the chamber of commerce is still as depressed as before, and there are no guests at all.

When Dorothy opened the door and walked in, she found that the atmosphere inside was a bit strange.

Miss, you... are you back?

A maid came to Dorothy's side cautiously and said.

What about the rest?

Dorothy glanced at the interior of the business, and found that the inside of the business was terribly cold.

After her father failed in business, the number of people employed in the firm decreased from more than one hundred to more than forty attendants, but now there are only three in the entire hall of the firm.

The one who answered Dorothy was Dorothy's personal maid.

They all... left. Miss heard that you angered Mr. Etek. It is rumored that Mr. Etek was very angry and planned to demolish our shop. The maid said in a low voice with fear.

Sure enough?

Although Dorothy never expected that her escape from marriage would develop into such a bad result.

She turned her gaze to Qiao Xiu who was behind her. Qiao Xiu didn't seem to care about these things, and took a look at the interior decoration of the firm.

Do you have a basement here? Or something like a vault? Joshua asked.

Yes, come with me.

Dorothy also stopped thinking about the issues that bothered her, and led Joshua directly to the inside of the firm.

The scale of this business is much larger than what Qiao Xiu imagined. There are three floors in total. There are not only shops specializing in selling goods, but also windows like pawn shops and a hall for selling 'treasures' and auctions on the second floor. .

Silver Flower Chamber of Commerce has a history of nearly a hundred years. Dorothy came to a dark room inside the firm, where there was a door locked by an inscription, The most glorious period of this firm was when my grandfather was still alive. When he was still alive, he expanded the size of the chamber of commerce by ten times, and the trade route spanned three countries, but it is a pity that after the defeat, this is the last shop owned by him.

I can tell.

Joshua came to the tunnel behind the door. Various strange patterns were carved on the walls of the tunnel. Although it had been scratched a lot, some of the patterns were made of gold powder.

The inscriptions of the elves.

The man in gray who was at the end of the line looked at the murals carved on the wall, and instantly recognized what these things came from.

Elf?

Qiao Xiu thought that these things were just made by the owner of the chamber of commerce to show off his wealth.

An ancient elven language, these inscriptions are engraved on many buildings in Nolan's underground ruins. The man in gray stopped and pondered the remaining inscriptions on it. These inscriptions have worked once, and they look like It's a large defensive barrier, little girl, who is your grandfather?

I... my grandfather was just an ordinary businessman.

Dorothy didn't expect that these strange patterns in her warehouse would make the man in gray so... surprised.

But he used to tell me a story, whispered Dorothy.

story?

What... the gift of an angel, it seems that his initial wealth was bestowed by an angel who fell from the sky. Dorothy said, I don't quite believe the truth of this story.

Interesting. The gray-clothed man stroked his beard with owls.

Joshua fell into silence. Dorothy's words reminded Joshua of the 'high elves' mentioned by the dark elves.

Dorothy took Joshua to the basement.

It looks like it was used as a wine cellar for storing wine, with wooden barrels piled up all around.

My grandfather kept a lot of treasures here in the past, but most of them were sold by my father, and then this place also became a wine cellar.

Dorothy held a radiant primordial, illuminating the somewhat dark basement.

Treasure? Are there any leftovers? The gray-clothed man became interested, and looked around but found nothing more.

There... there is one, but in my room I used it as a looking-glass when I was a child, said Dorothy.

Show me your mirror later...Although I have heard that 'relics' have been found in many places other than Nolan, this is the first time I have discovered that someone is using the inscriptions in the relics today.

The man in gray came to the center of a wine barrel rack, and then thrust his staff into the bricks and dirt on the ground.

The owl, which had been standing on the shoulders of the man in gray, jumped to the top of the staff, and a magic circle composed of pure white inscriptions spread out around the man in gray.

The magic released by the man in gray is a kind of defensive enchantment.

The reason why Joshua entrusted the man in gray to come to Oxenburg was to hope that he could build a barrier that could protect the crystallization of the World Tree.

The value of this thing is enough for many people to take the risk to steal or snatch it.

Qiao Xiu didn't think that the current Silver Flower Chamber of Commerce alone would be able to secure this crystal.

The construction lasted for a full three hours. When the construction was completed, the pure white order inscriptions could be seen flickering in any corner of the entire underground warehouse.

You can put that crystal here, and it will be safe and sound.

The gray-clothed man tapped his staff again, and the soil on the ground suddenly rose up and turned into a stone pillar, with grooves embedded in crystals in the stone pillar.

Miss Dorothy, I think it's time for you to get to work too.

Qiao Xiu embedded the crystal into the groove, and a magic barrier instantly separated Qiao Xiu from the crystal.

This crystallization of the World Tree can be regarded as an official residence in Ossenburg.
