Skeleton King

Chapter 44

In the morning, when Ace went out, Angelica put the leather armor on Ace.The sides of the leather armor are tied with ropes, which Ace himself does not and does not like to do.

Angelica's nimble fingers carefully threaded the braided rope through the small holes in the leather armor, one after another, and finally tied a beautiful knot.Ace tugged at the leather throat armor around his neck, "It's a little tight, it's not comfortable."

Angelica helped Ace adjust the position of the leather armor, "Master, it will be more comfortable this way."

Ace: "Can't I not wear it?"

Angelica said gently but stubbornly: "Young master, try it, it won't affect your actions."

Ace twisted his neck, stretched his body and made a few movements. After adjusting the leather armor, it was indeed much more comfortable, and it did not affect the battle.Ace didn't plan to replace it. Apart from the ease of movement while wearing it, he also understood Angelica's worry.

In Angelica's view, Carl Caesar was the only outsider who knew that Ace practiced undead magic.A businessman can sell everything for profit, even if Ace saved Karl Caesar's life, he is not trustworthy.Unlike Angelica, Angelica will talk about her worries about Ace. She always uses her way to add a little security to Ace. Even if Ace really fights with others, this protection will work. The odds are slim.

Ace: "Where did this leather armor come from? I haven't seen it before."

Angelica: "I went to see Angela, and made this leather armor with the materials sent by the young master."

Ace said: "Oh." George took back a stack of gold tickets from the Caesar Chamber of Commerce, and Ace bought a large amount of Warcraft leather, the turtle shell of Xiaolin turtle and other steel through Carl Caesar, and used them to practice for Angela. .

Angelica half-kneeled on the ground to tidy up Ace's boots. Ace saw six or seven knots in her neckline, and the clothes had buttons on both shoulders, which made it easy to remove and wash if they got dirty during cleaning. It was practical. It is also beautiful, and praised: "Did you also make this dress yourself? It looks good."

Angelica stood up and said with a smile, "This is the uniform uniform of the maids in the villa."

Ace: "But I think they are wearing lake blue." Angelica's is turquoise.

Angelica said: "Just the color of the clothes is different, everything else is the same."

Ace didn't want to discuss the topic of clothing with the girl. He took the long sword on the table and hung it on his waist, "I'm going out." When he was about to reach the door of the bedroom, he turned his head again and looked at Angelie Ka, "I always feel like I'm forgetting something important. Do I have anything else to do today?"

Angelica: "Go back to the young master, no."

Ace left the villa in relief.

When Ace saw Carl Kaiser, Carl Kaiser was sitting in a tavern on the side of the street, the sun was slowly falling down, making a nice halo on his soft black hair.

Esla opened the chair opposite Carl Caesar, "I thought that the eldest son of the president of the Caesar Chamber of Commerce sat in the gorgeous living room to meet with people."

Carl Kaiser: "That's what I thought when I was a kid."

Ace took a large glass of ale from the waiter, tasted it a little, and was overwhelmed by the heat. He coughed and asked, "How did you find this place?"

Carl Kaiser: "The ale here is very famous. Although the nobles think it is cheap, many coolies in the city like to come here for a drink because it is strong enough." Carl Kaiser looked at the bar, the owner of the tavern Grinning, he gave him a big smile.

"In fact, the relationship between merchants and civilians is much closer than they are with nobles." Carl Kaiser said.

Ace said: "But don't rich merchants like to enter the circle of nobles?" When Bad Soden held a banquet, he would occasionally invite the daughters of several merchants from the province of Westphalia. Marry merchants to maintain the extravagance of their outings.The businessmen's daughters will choose clothes from the moment they receive the invitation, and plan early on how to dress themselves that day, so as to appear in line with the temperament of the banquet.

Carl Kaiser: "Some things have to be done."

Ace gave a sigh of relief. He didn't have much acquaintance with Carl Kaiser. These words were enough for greetings, "Have you taken the boundary stone you brought last time?"

"Yeah." Carl Kaiser picked up the glass of ale and covered his lips, "1000 gold coins each."

Ace whistled, "Your heart is really dark." Although the boundary stone is a little troublesome to find, it is really not a rare thing in the world of the dead, and Carl Caesar was ashamed to ask for such a price.

Carl Kaiser put the beer on the table, and said lightly: "There are always people who think this thing is a rare commodity."

That's the beauty of talking in a tavern.Although Ace's whistle just now attracted many people to watch, the people sitting at a few tables not far from them just looked curiously at the next two well-dressed teenagers, and did not expect that they might be the richest in the city Or soon to be the richest man.

Ace: "Will the market be saturated?"

Although Carl Kaiser didn't understand what Ace meant, he could more or less guess, "No. The magicians and nobles in Bremen, the boundary stone, can digest this, not to mention the entire Georgia province, and even the tricolor The Sumire Empire is gone. If you can really move out the boundary stones of the entire dead world, we can still sell them to the Finger Empire."

He traded with the Finger Empire in private, but he was going to be exiled to the northwest, but Karl Caesar said it so carelessly, as if he wasn't worried at all.

Ace?Ace didn't react too much.The Pansy Empire and the Finger Empire have the same ancestors, and the two countries have been generally peaceful in the past few decades. The boundary stone is not like a sword, but a strategic material, which is mostly collected by the nobles or consumed in the magician's laboratory.

Ace was more curious about another matter, "The Caesar Chamber of Commerce also has a way in the Finger Empire?"

Carl Caesar said vaguely: "Where gold coins can be used, merchants always have different methods from nobles." Carl Caesar handed Ace a small bag with a small stack of gold tickets rolled in it. Any city with a Caesar Chamber of Commerce can be exchanged for gold coins, and each gold ticket has a face value of 1 gold coins.

Carl Kaiser: "400 boundary stones, a total of 40 gold coins are sold, four or six points, and you get 16. I paid for the part that was given to you before, and this is the rest."

Ace put it in his arms without looking at it.

Ace: "In two days, I will send you a new batch of boundary stones."

Carl Kaiser: "Okay. But don't forget, there are soul crystals."

Ace shook his head, introduced the source of the soul crystals to Carl Caesar, and then said: "It is true that the dead world is full of soul crystals, because there are undead creatures everywhere. But the quality of the soul crystals produced by level 1 skeleton soldiers is very poor. It's only as thick as the nail shell, and it's very fragile. If the sun is brighter, it will melt away. Are you sure that people who want to buy soul crystals can accept the quality of soul crystals?"

Carl Caesar thought for a moment and asked, "Is there no better quality soul crystal?"

Ace: "The soul crystals of the third-level skeletons are stronger. The soul crystals of the fourth-level undead creatures will have different colors and have various functions, but it is not so easy to get these."

Carl Caesar: "Your safety is the most important thing." Soul crystals can be obtained in the future, but if something happens to Ace, where will he find another necromancer.

"If you have a chance, try to get high-level soul crystals." Carl Caesar thought for a while, and said, "You also need low-level soul crystals. Don't worry, I will sell them at a suitable price."

Knowing the price at which Carl Caesar sold the boundary stone for 1000 gold coins, Ace didn't worry much about the sale of the soul crystal.No matter how difficult it is to obtain the soul crystal, he just reminded Karl Kaiser of the value of the soul crystal.

They talked for a while, and Ace got up to say goodbye. He patted Carl Kaiser on the shoulder heroically, "Good brother, see you next time." Don't forget to prepare the golden ticket.

The corners of Carl Kaiser's mouth were slightly hooked. He was dressed in black, which made his complexion pale and almost transparent. Under the sunlight, blue blood vessels could even be seen. It looks like it's broken.

Carl Kaiser picked up the ale on the table, "May we all get what we want when we meet next time." After he finished speaking, he drank the ale in his glass.

Ace was taken aback. The glass of ale was so big that he couldn't hold it with both hands. "You...your body can drink such strong wine?"

Carl Kaiser: "When I was young, I often liked to drink my father's wine secretly. The alcohol capacity was okay. But I couldn't drink it later." Before he finished speaking, an abnormal blush appeared on his pale face.

Ace: "Then why are you..."

"Because I am the eldest son of the unsuccessful president of the chamber of commerce." Before Carl Kaiser finished speaking, half of him fell on the table in the tavern, as if fainted.

Ace was about to shake him when he felt two gazes from the far side of the tavern.

Ace didn't care about Karl Kaiser anymore, he left the tavern directly.Standing at the corner of this street, he saw two men dressed as squires help Karl Kaiser into a carriage.

Ace sighed secretly in his heart, he was not the only one who needed to maintain the character design.

Only with power can they be themselves.

Hope that day doesn't come too late.

When Ace returned to the villa, he saw Noou standing in the lobby on the first floor with a cold face. When he saw Ace coming back, he turned around and went up to the second floor.

Ace froze for a moment, belatedly remembered that he had invited Noou to practice sword today, but he had a severe headache these two days, and Carl Caesar told him that he was free this morning, causing him to forget about it thing.Because Nou mentioned it when there were only him and Nou that day, so Angelica didn't know either.

When Ace went to find Nou, Nou was in the study.

There is a large study room on the second floor of the villa, which is not far behind Nou's bedroom.Nuo Ou was looking for a book on the shelf, but the book he was looking for was at the top of the shelf, out of his reach.

Ace followed Nou's gaze and saw the book. He borrowed some strength from the cabinet, jumped up and took the book and handed it to Nou.

Nou took the book and glanced at Ace lightly.

Ace rubbed his nose. Although Nou is a fourth-level swordsman, he is stronger than him, but the behavior of jumping up, "This does not match the temperament of your little Duke Green." Ace said.

Noah almost laughed angrily.

Ace: "Sorry, Nou, I forgot about the sword practice appointment today."

Nuo Ou said firmly: "If you don't want to practice swordsmanship, just tell me directly, why make such an excuse."

Ace: "Not an excuse. Sorry, Nou, I really forgot."

Nou: "Then what did you go out for today? Is it because the Neumann family has some property in Bremen that you need to take care of, or do you want to meet a friend you met at the Georgia Knights training camp? David Lee Hitt? Or Gerald Horsley?"

Ace nana said, "None."

Nou put his arms around his chest and looked at Ace, "Then what did you do?"

Ace: "I can't say. Sorry, Nou..."

Nou said coldly: "You don't have to apologize to me, everyone has their own private space, just don't forget next time."

Ace knew that Nou said so, this matter is a turnaround.But now, he has an urge to share the biggest secret of his coming to this world with his best friend, "Nuoou, do you really want to know what I did today?"

Nou looked at Ace suspiciously.

Ace's voice was very gentle, yet firm and undeniable, "Nuoou, when you inherit the Green family in the future, you can't tell other people about the family. I also have such a secret. The family has nothing to do, it belongs to my secret. You are my best friend, if you want to know, I will tell you."

Nou stared at Ace, his expression was unprecedentedly gentle, he looked at him with a smile, like looking at a vexatious child.Nou doesn't like this feeling very much. He is not far from Ace, but it seems to be separated by many invisible barriers.

Obviously he did something wrong, Nuo Ou thought angrily.

Nuoou lowered his head to one side, he couldn't resist the gentle appearance of the usual hippie smiling face, "Okay, I'm not angry anymore. It's just that I haven't come back for more than two months, and when I came back, you disappeared all day. As for your Worthless secrets, take them to your grave yourself."

Ace touched his nose, this is a very valuable secret, and it is also a secret that should always be taken to the grave.

Thinking of what Nou said, Ace suddenly laughed.

Nou looked at Ace, only feeling inexplicable.

Ace invited Nou, "Would you like to go to my room to have a look? These days the monster egg is always moving around, I feel like it is about to hatch."

Noou looked uninterested, and Ace grabbed his hand and went back to his room.

The Warcraft eggs were still lying in the incubator, no different from usual.But if a magician meditates in this room, he can "see" the magic beast eggs surrounded by magical elements of various colors.

This is very unreasonable. Even high-level monsters can master at most two kinds of magic elements, and their cubs are even less likely to absorb so many attributes of magic elements before they are born, except for one legendary monster.

When Ace "watched" this scene, he already had some kind of speculation about the monster in the monster egg.

Ace is happy that Nou is back, what a lifetime chance they have to see its cubs hatch.

Nuo Ou gently stroked the ugly brown eggshell of the monster egg twice, "I can feel the sound of a very strong heartbeat."

Ace smiled, as if Nou was praising his child.

Nou took out a bottle of magic potion from his arms and handed it to Ace, "I bought it in the province of Westphalia. The pharmacist said that if the cubs of magical beasts do not break their shells for a long time, they may die in the eggs. This can weaken the thickness of the eggshell and increase the success rate of the cubs hatching. This won’t harm the cubs’ bodies, but I don’t know if there are any other side effects.”

Ace, who had already guessed what was in the monster egg, hurriedly stopped Nou, and said with a smile: "No, the monster egg shook a lot a few days ago, and it probably took two days for its shell to break."

Nuo Ou said lightly: "That's not necessarily true, maybe it's teasing you." Nuo Ou tapped the monster egg twice with the bottle containing the magic potion.

Nuo Ou was not worried at all that he accidentally broke the monster egg.He and Ace have tried this monster egg before, and neither of them can leave a mark on the eggshell without fighting spirit. Therefore, Nuoou doubts whether the monster cub inside can rely on his own Power breaks the shell.

Nuo Ou's flat voice was a little curious, "I'll give it a try."

Ace fell on the bed laughing, and Nou said a very obvious lie in a serious manner, which was so funny.Nou has always done things properly, and Ace is not worried that he really poured the magic potion on the eggshell of the monster egg.

Ace lay on the bed, rubbing his head for himself, drowsy.

Suddenly, Nou's unbelievable voice sounded in the room, "Ace!"

Ace: "Huh?"

Noola grabbed Ace's hand and pulled half of his body up. He pointed at the monster egg and said excitedly, "Look, Ace!"

Ace looked at the monster egg on the incubator, it was still ugly, yellowish-yellow, it was rare to give Ace face, when Nuo Ou came to shake it twice, Ace just wanted to say "it's okay", then See--

A very small but clearly visible crack appeared on the shell of the Warcraft egg.

It's really coming out of its shell!
