On the Seven Towers

In the reception room arranged by the baron, Xiao Chen kept walking back and forth, repeatedly measuring the length of the carpet with his steps. Luo Ling sat on the chair without saying a word, resting her chin on her hands, lost in thought. On the other hand, Chen Hansheng looked more normal. He was tapping his fingers on a pair of full-body armor standing by the wall. The armor made a dull, annoying clang.

Xiao Chen stopped and stared at Chen Hansheng, and heard Chen Hansheng mutter: "It's an old thing, but steel is not good. It can be pierced with a shovel."

"Old Chen, you are quite sure." Xiao Chen walked over and touched the armor with his hand. The cold touch did not reduce his anxiety.

Chen Hansheng smiled and gestured at a distance of less than an inch with his hand: "Ever since I was on the battlefield, bullets have flown past my head from such a close place. I always feel that there is nothing I can't get through."

"Well, let's stop him with soldiers." Xiao Chen smiled and glanced at Luo Ling. He found that the other party also gave him a look of encouragement that was rare these days.

Not long after, the door was pushed open. Under the guidance of the servant, a blue-haired young man wearing a mage's robe walked in, followed by two warriors wearing leather armor and carrying swords.

The young man was thin and pale. He walked into the reception room expressionlessly, glanced at Xiao Chen and others, looked at Luo Ling a few more times, and finally stopped at Xiao Chen.

"I am Master Perrin, my teacher, the great Master Icasa, the inheritor of the Tower of Spiritual Eyes, the observer of the future, the royal mage of the Kingdom of Iberia and the guardian of the Magic Association in this city. You , Is he the wild mage who made the noise two days ago?" The mage named Perin had a rather cold attitude.

Xiao Chen felt angry and funny when he heard this boy announcing his home with his head held high. '

What makes him angry is this man's arrogant attitude. Morey told him that wild mages are magicians from the Mage Association and inherited sects, and are the names for casual practicing mages without sects. It's somewhat contemptuous, and it's even more rude to address him face to face. This person directly asked himself if he was a wild mage. Was he trying to show off his power?

The funny thing is that he has been reporting the teacher's name for a long time, but he has nothing in his name. It seems that he is just a fledgling little rooster.

"I am Xiao Chen from China. I have the inheritance of the Tower of Dreams." He replied neither humble nor arrogant.

"China? Tower of Dreams? Where is that place? Have you heard of it?" Palin asked the two followers in a pretentious manner, and the other followers shook their heads like rattles in response. He said with some disdain: "In short, this is a warning! All magicians in the kingdom must register with the Magic Association. In addition, magic is not allowed to be used casually in Suero. Do you know that magic is used randomly in the city? How dangerous is it? Learn some rules and register yourself at the Tower of Spiritual Eyes."

Peilin took out a small roll of paper from his sleeve and threw it to Xiao Chen, looking like he was too lazy to talk nonsense with him.

Xiao Chen let the roll of paper fall to the ground, neither catching it nor picking it up. Instead, he folded his hands and looked at Perin indifferently.

"You!" This attitude was obviously beyond Perin's expectations. He raised his hand, preparing to use a little magic to teach the other party a lesson.

However, Xiao Chen did not give him this chance. He took a step forward, and a frightening aura suddenly spread from him. A wave of mental fluctuations swept towards Perin and the two warriors. In an instant, the three of them hugged each other. He shook his head and screamed hysterically.

That wave invaded Palin's mind, and all kinds of imaginary horrors flashed in front of him like a kaleidoscope. Palin seemed to be trapped in a cemetery infested by the undead, sitting tremblingly among tombstones and will-o'-the-wisps. Just when he thought he was about to collapse, the darkness slowly receded and the surroundings slowly returned to normal. Palin was soaked in cold sweat. He pointed at Xiao Chen with a trembling finger and asked: "You actually attacked me? Do you know what you are doing?"

"I'm just giving a lesson in etiquette to a child without a tutor. Didn't your teacher tell you before he sent you here that you should respect magicians who are more powerful than you?"

With the help of two soldiers, Palin stood up tremblingly. His lips lost color, his eyes were bloodshot, and his face was full of tears and snot. He said hatefully: "You have offended someone you can't afford to offend. , you will regret it! The teacher will not let you go!"

Although his voice was loud, his expression was stern, like a child being bullied.

"Don't associate your arrogance with your teacher. You can't represent your teacher's attitude. And you shouldn't cause inexplicable trouble for your teacher."

Peilin looked at Xiao Chen uncertainly. The magic Xiao Chen released just now was so terrifying that he would never want to try that feeling again in his life. At that moment, he didn't even know who was stronger, the man in front of him or his teacher. The overwhelming, torrential spiritual power made him lose any confidence in resisting.

"Get out of my sight. Find someone polite."

Palin walked like a lost dog, leaving the scroll on the ground. Xiao Chen picked it up and took a look. A light flashed and a lot of information entered his mind. This is a magical communication magic. This scroll told Xiao Chen the identity of Master Icasa, the address of his mage tower and some precautions not to reveal magical power in the city. Originally, Peilin's mission was just to hand this scroll of paper into Xiao Chen's hands, but he didn't expect that the conflict would reach that level.

"Xiao Xiao, what you did just now really relieved me, but I'm afraid that if I hit the younger one, the older one will come." Chen Hansheng's two thick eyebrows squeezed together. He witnessed the entire dispute and Xiao Chen's strong reply. , which greatly exceeded his expectation.

Xiao Chen kept a straight face for a long time and rubbed his cheeks vigorously before he regained some of his energy: "It's okay if we don't have to be tough! Originally we were just ordinary merchants. But after the auction, in the eyes of caring people, we have mastered a very valuable There is no guarantee that they will not have bad intentions. Although this person comes from some magic association, who knows how many eyes are staring at us from behind? If we don't show enough strength, we will be jealous of these businesses in the blink of an eye. They were eaten alive."

Luo Ling said leisurely: "Maybe the Diaz family and the Basque family are secretly paying attention to this good show and speculating on our strength."

Chen Hansheng looked around and said in a low voice: "Hmph, I even doubt that they were the ones who attracted this person. Hiding a knife in a smile is nothing new."

"This is a game of cards. Everyone is waiting for us to reveal our flaws." Luo Ling stood up from her chair and showed a smile, as if she was standing confidently in the classroom. "So a good poker player not only needs luck, but also confidence. ”

When Xiao Chen saw her smile, the helplessness in his heart actually dissipated a lot, "Well, we still have a few good cards."

"Winning or losing in this round determines whether we are qualified to gain a foothold here. Now that we are here, let's compete with them." Luo Ling walked to the window, put her hands on the window sill, and looked at Sue Luo's street scene.

"Okay. I'm going to meet Master Icasa." Xiao Chen sat on the table, his eyes following Luo Ling, "I wonder if saying 'Tower of Dreams' is the right choice?"

"Reporting the name 'Tower of Dreams' is just a bit more of a bet. We have too few chips, so naturally we have to put them all in." She turned to stare at Xiao Chen, "So there is nothing else but winning this round. Chosen.”

"Yes. This is called 'chain franchise'." The words "chain franchise" are said in Chinese, but what does it matter? Li Jia is the first user of this word in this world, so let the Chinese Let’s transform Spanish like this.

Several businessmen in front of him repeated this word, their eyes full of excitement. Others around him also looked at Li Jia with admiration. People in this era have too few channels to obtain knowledge. They can't help but be full of awe for people with knowledge and ideas.

A man brought a glass of water and placed it in front of Li Jia. Li Jia thanked him with a smile, took a few sips of water, and then continued: "However, the prerequisite for chain franchise is unified standards, qualified training, and common supply. If you can help us first It would be best if we work for a few years and then expand our channels.”

The people below nodded frequently, and a businessman said: "It is indeed Mr. Butler who comes from the magician's family. Your remarks are so reasonable."

Another said: "My old father-in-law still has some money at home. Maybe I can go to their town to open a chain store earlier. As long as I have these goods, I am definitely not afraid of not making money."

Seeing the heated discussion below, Li Jia finally breathed a sigh of relief. In this case, even if they didn't rescue me, they wouldn't just kill me, right?

At this moment, the unique dinging sound of bicycles came from outside, and Li Jia heard Ji Yijun and Garcia shouting: "Help, help!"

Ji Yijun rode his bicycle and rushed with Garcia to the door of the "Magician Store". He threw his bicycle to the ground and stumbled in: "Well... Enrique, save him, it's okay. Just take a rest! What are these people doing? "

At this time, Garcia also ran in: "It's really okay. The adults used alchemical potions to revive Enrique. Not only will Enrique be cured, but he will also become stronger than an ox! He has the blood of a flying dragon. !”

At this time, the villagers inside and outside the store were shocked! Everyone was talking with red faces, and Garcia was surrounded by water. Li Jia was also very happy. He rushed over and supported Ji Yijun and asked, "What's the bloodline of the flying dragon?"

"Mr. Morey was a big help." Ji Yijun briefly introduced the situation there, "You don't know, now Dr. Feng also has the blood of a flying dragon. She is so strong that she can lift an electric car with one hand. Che! Enrique will probably be stronger after he recovers. This kid was just an orphan without a father and a mother, but now he’s a blessing in disguise.”

At this time, Li Jia's worried heart was finally relieved. He slapped Ji Yijun hard and said, "It wasn't because of you, you bastard. I was almost surrounded and hacked to death by the people here."

"I don't think that stance looks good."

"That's because I have a sharp tongue!"

"Li Jia, Brother Li, I cannot thank you enough for your kindness. I owe you this time."

"Okay, stop talking nonsense, how is Zhang Hong's injury? It shouldn't be a big problem, right?"

Ji Yijun was suddenly stunned, "Zhang Hong? I was wondering why I didn't see him! He didn't come to school!"

"What?" Li Jia screamed, "Two hours ago, I asked Hong Lifeng to send him there."

"They definitely did not arrive at the hospital. I have been staying at the hospital."

Li Jia suddenly broke out in a cold sweat: "It's broken, something will happen again! Where did they go?"
