Rosalie: "It takes all my strength to stand in this armor. Do you know how heavy it is?"
Wang: "I know. So I'm just suggesting. Okay, Nini, peel her off."
Nini took action immediately.
When the armor was removed, Rosalie was already sweating and her clothes were soaked, and the shape of the corset and bra inside could be clearly seen.
Rosalie fanned herself and said, "I am so unlucky!"
Nini replied: "It's okay, I just sweated a little, which is nothing compared to the dangers we have already experienced. If you want to travel with us, you will suffer a lot in the future."
Rosalie sighed, "I know. Your journey will definitely not be a comfortable one. But I am mentally prepared."
Wang: "It's best that you have such awareness. It seems that there are no good things in the treasure house. Since the Chamber of Commerce in Monrovia is going to provide us with tickets for easy exchange, we will not take these treasures that seem to have only the function of selling money."
Rosalie: "Did you plan to take it?"
Wang: "My teacher taught me that I should try to rob the treasury whenever I can. Mages are very expensive. In the middle and late stages, copying a magic scroll will cost tens of thousands of gold coins. And those rare spellcasting materials are also very expensive.
"Of course, I'm different from ordinary mages. Ordinary mages have to buy scrolls of spells they've never seen before and copy them into their own spellbooks. When one spellbook is full, they have to buy a second one. These are all places where money is spent.
"I don't have these money points, but I still need a lot of money to study spells."
Rosalie asked suspiciously, "Is your teacher a robber?"
The king shrugged and stopped discussing the topic. "Let's go to the dwarven craftsmen next. They worked so hard to make a dragon saddle. We should fix it. It might be useful in the future."

When the group arrived at the dwarf street, they found that it had become a sea of joy.
The dwarves began to celebrate their victory first.
The bards of the Bardic College had learned of the dwarves' celebration and had come to join in the revelry - they were not ones to miss such an occasion.
The whole street echoed with the cheerful sounds of the lude.
After seeing Wang and his group, several bards came up to them at the same time. The fastest one said first, "Master, I have written a poem about your great adventure in Monrovia! It is called "The Dawn of Monrovia"! Please listen to it!"
Without waiting for the king's response, he began to sing.
The king interrupted him after listening to a few words: "Wait a minute! Why do you have so many roles for the Margrave of Bradford and the emperor in your song? Let's not talk about the emperor first. The Margrave of Bradford didn't get involved in this matter until the very end. He had nothing to do with it in the first place! The role of the emperor has also been exaggerated."
The bard touched his cheek awkwardly: "Our academy is semi-official in Monrovia. I wrote this song to participate in the academy's selection this year. The selection results will be presented to His Majesty the Emperor, so..."
Wang: "Get lost! You are not allowed to taint my adventure!"
The second person who rushed to Wang's side laughed and picked up his lute: "Come and listen to mine. My song is also called "Morning in Monrovia", but it is completely based on your perspective!"
As the poet spoke, he played the lute and sang a cheerful song to the accompaniment of a light melody.
After listening to a few sentences, Flint was shocked: "It sounds like a love story, not a great adventure of killing a nine-ring lich and a powerful orc overlord."
Bard: "Those are all the spices of love~"
Wang: "You get out too!"
After listening to several more performances by bards, the king came to the conclusion: "All the bards in this city are idiots."
Flint agreed: "A bard who has never been out on an adventure can only write such whining things. My old friend Tanis can definitely write something satisfying."
Several bards looked sullen, and one of them said, "Then let us travel with you! This way I can get exclusive rights to your adventure poems in the future!"
King: "No, we do need bards, but we don't want your kind. Flint, go find your old friend and tell him we're here to get a dragon saddle."
Flint: "Come with me, he must be at the Laughing Tavern at this time."
Marika muttered, "The Laughing Tavern, what a strange name for a dwarven tavern."
Flint shot back, "That's better than the names of your drow taverns, like Spider and Scorpion!"
Marika: "No, drow elves don't have taverns. We usually use brothels as taverns. There are male servants of various races, but there are no dwarves because dwarves are too short."
Flint silently picked up the warhammer.
Wang: "Isn't this a classic drow rumor? My teacher has been to the main city of the drow in this plane. He said that because of the fear of being assassinated, the drow have no entertainment venues at all. They can't relax at any time, because if they relax, people who covet their positions will attack them.
"Drow women also do not keep male servants, because they fundamentally despise men, who are only valuable if a drow intends to have children."
Marika glanced at the king and said, "You are right. I am just taking advantage of other people's preconceived impressions of the drow. The deeper their misunderstanding of us, the better."
Wang: "This is Zhuoer's view on the misunderstanding of the outside world. I've made a note of it. It will definitely appear in my masterpiece in the future."
At this time, Old Louis, who was in charge of making the dragon saddle, came over and asked, "I heard you were looking for me?"
The king nodded, "Let's get the dragon saddle. It may be useful in the future."
"Okay, come with me."
After a moment, Wang successfully put the dragon saddle into his dimensional bag.
Wang: "Next we have to wait for Bernal's ceremony and carnival."
At this moment, a sailor from the Star Chaser came galloping over on horseback: "Your Excellency the Grand Mage!"
I don’t know since when, but the king’s title became His Excellency the Grand Master.
Wang: "What's wrong?"
"The people from the Monrovia Port Authority insisted that we switch to the luxurious inland river cruise ship they provided! They said it was a gift from the Emperor of Monrovia!"
Wang: "What? A luxurious river cruise ship? How luxurious is it? Let's go and see!"
**
The ship provided by the Emperor of Monrovia was also called the Star Chaser, which should be the current name.
This is an inland warship. Compared with the unarmed old Starseeker, it is equipped with multiple crossbows, allowing it to compete with others on the inland river.
In addition to the weapons, there is also something else going on inside.
As soon as Wang Yi walked into the captain's room, he said confidently: "Space folding magic! This cabin is permanently inhabited by space folding magic."
Flint: "We can all see that."
Everyone can see that it's because the captain's room is so big.
Wang estimated that the captain's room was about 100 square meters. Other captain's rooms had a huge navigation table with a map on it, but this room had a giant sand table with a miniature landscape of the entire road from Monrovia to the Thorn Islands.
Xiaobai: "Oh, what a beautiful sandbox!"
After saying that, she turned into a beetle, landed on the sandbox and began to crawl.
Marika asked Wang in confusion, "What is she doing?"
"Traveling, I guess. Why are you asking me?" Wang asked back.
"You know her best," Marika replied.
Elizabeth next to her had an expression as if her heart ached.
The beetle on the sand table has traveled through thousands of mountains and rivers.
Flint looked at the sofa next to the sand table and said, "Oh, it's really nice. It's made of real leather. It's so luxurious. I can smoke cigarettes all day long without getting sore on this sofa!"
As he said this he sat down and took out his pipe.
Gao Trick walked to the mechanical dummy in the corner and fiddled with it: "Okay!"
Flint looked at him and said, "This dummy should be a dwarf product. It can be used to practice with axes and swords! There are actually three of these dummies. It's really a luxury. We don't have so many physical professions."
Wang: "More is better! There's a magic toilet here?"
As he said this he opened the door of the cubicle.
"Well, a magic toilet with a magic water source... The emperor really gave me some good things."
After he finished speaking, he walked around the cabin again and made a decision: "Malika, go check if there are any people hiding in the mezzanine of this ship, or if there are any annoying traps."
After Marika left, the captain of the Star Chaser asked, "Should we... use this ship?"
"Isn't this great? Although the velvet bed may be too hot to sleep on now, our journey has almost completed the entire summer, and we will definitely enter winter in the future. It will come in handy then!"
Captain: "I thought you thought this bed was big enough for many girls to sleep on at the same time."
Wang: "How is that possible! Of course the sleeping area should be reserved for one person. You don't know how wonderful it is to wake up in a 500 square meter bed every morning."
Xiao Bai transformed from a beetle back into a human and asked, "It's a 500-square-meter bed. Do you need to walk on it for five minutes to go to the toilet?"
Wang: “Don’t worry about these details!”
Xiaobai: "Okay! Then I'll try to see if this bed is soft!"
As she said this, she ran quickly and dived onto the bed like diving.
"Oh, it doesn't hurt when I pounce like this, it's so soft!" Xiaobai began to rub the velvet with his face, wagging his tail.
Wang said to the captain, "This is the ship. Organize the crew to transfer all the supplies on the Star Chaser to this ship today. It doesn't seem necessary for us to sell the Star Chaser... We are not short of money. Let's mortgage it to the Chamber of Commerce and see if we can get more scrolls. The Chamber of Commerce must have some in stock."
The captain nodded: "It will be done before departure tomorrow."
Wang: "Also, build a few bunk beds for this cabin."
Everyone stopped and looked at the wizard in confusion.
Wang: "We all have to live here. This way, if something goes wrong, we can act directly. This way we won't be defeated one by one."
Rosalie: "Can I live here too?"
"Go and sleep in the servants' quarters," the king replied.
Rosalie: "I can also take damage wearing that armor!"
The wizard stroked his chin and thought for a moment: "That's right, you can live here too. Besides, with so many people living together, we need a maid. I'll get you a maid outfit tomorrow."
Rosalie: “Huh?”
The king said firmly: "From now on, it will be your job to wash clothes and mop the decks. Come on. Very good, then all the problems are solved. Go to the palace and wait for tomorrow's ceremony."

The next day, in the audience hall of the imperial palace.
It was here two weeks ago that the Savior Team first met Bernal Myhrvold and his descendants.
Now, the salvation team once again entered the audience hall, and there was a laundry woman named Melvold in the team.
She was still wearing a maid outfit.
