Chapter 419 Shopping
"Then what strength does your fourth brother have?" Thane asked as he lay on Tourmaline's back.
He has discovered that when in contact with Tourmaline, he should not be too oblique.
Because Tourmaline most likely won’t understand.
Rather than being secretive, it would be better to ask directly.
Sure enough, Bixi was not wary of Thain's question and answered directly: "The fourth brother is not as strong as the third sister. I saw it when I was a child, and it was beaten once by the third sister."
"But the fourth brother is already an adult. The third sister once said that the fourth brother is very good at tossing." Bixi shook her head and said. It might not be clear what the "tossing" in her sister's words meant.
Thain nodded thoughtfully, and did not ask too much about Bixi's family affairs.
Tourmaline is indeed simple and straightforward, but don’t take it completely for a fool.
Thain did not touch on some particularly deep secrets and family affairs.
For example, until now, Thain has not asked about Bi Xi’s parents.
Including his brothers and sisters, Thain actually didn't talk much about them.
Tourmaline is truly friends with Thane, not his parents and siblings.
And with the strong strength of the other members of Bixi's family... I am afraid that no one will take a first-level magician seriously.
They probably just think that Thain, who is only a first-level strength, is some kind of pet or playmate of Tourmaline, right?
As long as Thain does not endanger Tourmaline, it is estimated that his family will not do anything to Thain.
After turning over on the comfortable and soft lawn, Thain suddenly asked Tourmaline: "How about you come to the Land of Greenland to play in the future?"
"There is a sea of gemstones surrounding the Holy Tower of Origin of Blue. I believe you will like it there."
During this period of time, Bixi has been listening to Thain's stories a lot.
Most of the stories are biographies of alien planes that Thain has read in books, and some stories originate from Thain himself, especially his experience in the Holy Tower of Blue Origin.
After all, Thain had never been in the Green Source area before this, and he only knew the situation there.
Of course, Thain picked up some interesting and fun things to tell Bixi, so after hearing Thain's invitation, Bixi's round eyes showed a hint of emotion.
Of course, for tourmaline, interesting and fun things may not have much impact on it. As long as there is a suitable place to sleep, Tourmaline can easily sleep with her head covered for decades.
The Gemstone Sea, with its pleasant scenery, wide water surface and warm sunshine, is obviously a good vacation spot.
However, Thane has not heard of any huge channels connected to the Gemstone Sea. It may not be easy for Tourmaline to migrate there.
Bixi did not immediately respond to Thain's kind invitation.
This is a simple and honest dragon turtle, it will not promise anything casually.
He just said: "I have to go back to the Western Islands first to see my parents and sister."
"If they agree, I can go to the place you mentioned."
Well, Bixi's behavioral principles are still at the stage of listening to her parents and siblings.
Thain didn't say anything more about this, just nodded.
…
The Mamet United Alliance is extremely powerful and prosperous, and the scenery and cities along the way are also extremely prosperous.
On this day, after arriving at a port city called Jimos, Thain asked Tourmaline to stay in the river and wait for him.
Thain himself took the constructor Yuli to the Mamet United Alliance city by the river.
Xiaoqi did not come with him, but now he is staying with Bixi to relieve his boredom.
Of course, this could also be an unnecessary move by Thain.
Because even if Thain and others stay in this port city for a week, for Tourmaline, it may be a blink of an eye.
This big guy is a great sleeper and never seems to get enough sleep.
Looking at the many cities within the Mamet United Alliance, Jimos Port is not outstanding. It is not the capital of a kingdom within the alliance, nor is it a large-scale economic intersection.
It was only because it was close to the river bank and waterway transportation was relatively developed that a large city gradually emerged.
The port city of Jimos also has its own floating port. Thain discovered that there are more floating ports in the Mamet United Alliance than on the south coast.
Almost every city that looks like a decent city has its own floating port.
Moreover, the style of the floating ship of the Mamet United Alliance is also somewhat different from what Thain saw on the south coast and the land of green.
The size of the floating boats here is smaller on average, but they appear to be very new in every aspect.
In particular, the power system seems to be different from floating ships elsewhere.
While reducing production costs, the carrying capacity and flight speed have not been greatly affected.
What Thain didn't know was that more than 70% of the floating ships of the Mamet United Alliance were built with the help of the Steel City in the north.
Similarly, the Mamet United Alliance continues to absorb more than half of the orders from the City of Steel every year.
The two top powers in the wizarding world complement each other. The prosperity of the City of Steel in the past 100,000 years and the continued strength of the Mamet United Alliance are inseparable from each other's support and the wisdom of decision-makers.
In the seaport city of Jimos, Thain's main purpose was to collect and purchase some specialty materials from the Mamet United Alliance.
These rare magic materials originating from the Mamet United Alliance and the alien planes it controls are cheaper and more diverse than those in holy tower stores in other areas.
Thain is not targeting high-end materials. Most of what he is focusing on is various resources and experimental equipment suitable for the first-level magician stage.
Especially in recent times, Thain has consumed a lot of materials, and some of them must be replenished.
The magic coins that Thain spent now were the ones he had accumulated before, and he did not use the loot obtained from the black magician.
As for those trophies of astonishing value, the best option is to take action after Thane arrives in the black domain of the Western Islands in the future.
The situation in the black domain is much more chaotic than the black market that Thain participated in before.
Let alone some bloody stolen goods, even if they openly trade local slaves in the wizarding world above level one, there will be no accountability.
It is a wasteland where evil breeds, and a stage where countless lunatics and extremely vicious people gather in the wizarding world.
…
Thain spent two days wandering around the port city of Dimos.
On the afternoon of the second day, Thain, who had acquired most of the commonly used resources in his list, discovered a black shop located in the southwest corner of the city.
This is a small, lonely shop that gives people a quiet and ominous feeling, and the things sold in the shop are also very strange, they are all old magic books.
The person guarding the shop was a bald, rickety old man.
Wearing a gray short robe, after seeing Thain walk into the store, his eyes like dead fish eyes raised slightly.
