I Made Scientific Magic

  Chapter 28 Empty box trap

  The next day, Lin En, who hadn't slept all night, got up early in the morning, randomly found a gorgeous empty box, stuffed it into his arms, and walked out of the room.

  On the spacious training ground outside the door, there was a series of crisp knocking sounds, and Lynn turned his head and found that "my sister" Ivana had been here for a long time.

  The girl held the wooden sword in her hand, and slashed at the vital position of the target swiftly and swiftly, without a trace of muddy water, drips of sweat were sliding down her forehead and into her neck...

It's really hard work... Lynn secretly sighed. In view of the unpleasant experience last night, he didn't say hello, and walked over without noticing that Iweena, who was training hard behind her, stopped and was using a very complicated expression looking at him.

why…

  Why after experiencing such a thing, you can still be so dull after seeing yourself?

  Ivana showed a dazed look on her face, but after remembering Pedrol's words last night, her eyes became firm again, and she held the sword in her right hand and slashed horizontally again, smashing the solid wooden rake in front of her.

  …

   Lynn, who had already walked out of the mansion, didn't know what happened in the mansion. After buying some necessary supplies in the market, he returned to the port shop he visited yesterday.

   "Welcome to Bill...ah, it's Lord Lotter!" The old halfling greeted conventionally, but after recognizing Lynn, he immediately surrounded him excitedly and said earnestly. "The shipment you mentioned yesterday, we can discuss it again... The entire Haigang Town will definitely not find a more suitable partner than [Ship Gang]!"

  Lin En didn't reply in a hurry, he looked around the shop leisurely, and said regretfully. "What? Mr. Lauder still doesn't want to see me?"

   Bill hurriedly explained. "No, no, I believe that Mr. Lauder must really want to see you! Unfortunately, he is not in Harbor Town right now. Even with the fastest raven, it will take several days to deliver the message!"

   "If Master Lott is worried about safety issues, [Boat Gang] can give goods of corresponding value as pledge!" The old Bill slapped his chest like a drum.

  Lin En hesitated for a while, and finally waved his hand and said. "Well, if that's the case, it's not unacceptable..."

   "Who is in charge of [Chuan Gang] now?"

"Of course it's Labour! Please wait a moment, I'll have someone call him..." Bill, the halfling, hurried out the door while talking, and called a boatman who moved the goods, and gave some instructions in a low voice. Then he came back again, standing on the small stool attentively and pouring fruit wine for Lynn.

  Lin En took the cup and put it aside casually. He didn't mean to drink, but pointed to the iron barrels piled up in the corner of the shop, and asked. "What are these things?"

   "It's all worthless yellow ore. A group of gold diggers dug it out from a barren hill in Haigang Town. They built a whole big boat." The halfling Bill said very depressed.

  Usually only good herbalists are willing to buy this stuff, but this year Viknir's yellow ore market has been saturated, which means they have to stockpile these things until next year before they can sell them.

"Master Lott, if you should be interested in these yellow ores, I can give you a cost price. Such a large barrel only costs nineteen copper plates. I heard that it is very effective for repelling insects!" Halfling Bill rubbed his hands. Hands, eager to sell.

   "No, I just haven't seen it, I'm just curious." Lynn shook his head and replied calmly.

  The two were chatting when a tall and strong man came in from the door with a few helpers.

   "It's an honor, Mr. Lott, I heard Bill said that you have something very important to talk to me face to face?" Rabble pushed the door open and entered, with a real smile on his face.

   "That's right, I'm planning to rent a big ship to deliver a batch of very important supplies!" Lin En said while solemnly taking out a beautiful box from his sleeve and putting it on the table. "This is a sample, I need a private place to talk to you alone!"

   Several people present at the scene unanimously set their sights on this exquisite palm-sized box.

  Halfling Bill secretly guessed whether there might be some kind of extremely rare gemstone inside, but he quickly rejected the idea when he thought that Lynn needed a big ship to carry it.

   Rabble on the side looked very solemn. Unlike Bill, he had joined the [Boat Gang] for more than ten years, and occasionally helped the nobles deal with some shady things.

  For example, the Duke of Nordland has been selling an addictive soul-killing herb in private. If this is caught by the Holy See, most of these little pawns will be pulled out to take the blame.

  Of course, risks and benefits coexist. If the goods are delivered smoothly, the income of this ship is enough for the entire [ship gang] to work for more than half a year.

   "No problem! We can go to the side room to talk slowly!" Rabble's thoughts were turning, but the smile on his face was even bigger.

  Lynn put away the box, followed Labour out of the shop, crossed half of the street all the way, and finally stopped in an ordinary-looking private house.

   Labour, who was very aware of the importance of confidentiality, asked several helpers to guard the door, and led Lynn alone to a well-hidden basement.

  The place is very empty, there are only a few simple tables and chairs, but they are very clean.

  Labour saw that Lynn had been looking at the surrounding environment from the moment he entered the door, and became more and more sure of his guess, so he promised with a smile.

   "Please sit down, Mr. Lotter, this place is safe and quiet, and no outsiders will disturb you!"

   "Since this is the case, then I can rest assured!" Lynn also laughed, pushing the box in his hand towards Labour, gesturing. "You can take a look at us before we talk!"

  Labour put his hands on the box with anxiety and excitement, curious about what kind of contraband would be inside.

  Soul Destroying Grass? Heim stone? It can't be a statue of some evil god, right?

  I heard that the nobles in the west of the Sekas Empire like that kind of evil stuff very much.

  However, after it was actually opened, Rabble's expression froze instantly.

  Because the box is empty, there is nothing!

   Got tricked?

  Labour immediately sensed something was wrong, subconsciously grabbed the dagger hanging from his waist with his left hand, but it was too late!

  The moment he opened the box, Lynn entered a brief overload mode, and his right hand quickly and accurately grasped Rabble's elbow, bending the entire arm at the most precise angle.

  Accompanied by a muffled sound of dislocation, heart-piercing pain immediately flooded Rabble's mind, but before he could yell out, he was pinched by the neck and fell heavily to the ground...
