Chapter 400 I'm Wanted
John is wanted.
And the price is not low, which makes people very excited.
The name of the black witcher is as alluring as the forest demon of the giant bear.
Wearing a bearskin cloak, he has now arrived at the capital.
Going to find Emily to find out about the monolith and visit this place called Tretorg
"The kingdom once recruited demon hunters to deal with the Kangsang banshee, but it seems safe here."
Walking in the street, the central avenue is wide enough for horse-drawn carriages to drive side by side.
The people here also seem to be richer than Balvi's, and there are some ladies with heavy makeup and their own servants.
John hid the silver sword under the cloak, but the black hair was not so obvious.
Came to a jewelry shop, came out again, with a bag of gold in his hand.
The small bag was hanging on the left side, and John found a young man who looked sloppy on the side of the street.
The young man was bragging on the street, saying: "As long as you are willing to give me three gold pieces, I will dare to peek at the bathing pool of the royal witch."
"Stop bragging, Wu Ke."
"You don't even know where the wizard royal is."
The other buddies laugh at him, which annoys Woo-kook.
He shouted: "Of course I know, I have seen the royal witch."
"Yes," a voice sounded, followed by a tinkling voice, "I will pay you ten silver coins and take me to the royal witch's residence."
John stood there, tossing ten silver coins in his left hand.
Wu Ke felt that he was being taken advantage of, and the lion said loudly, "Don't be kidding, give me ten gold coins, and I will take you there."
John said lightly: "Nine silver coins."
"Will you negotiate?" Seeing John lowering the price, Wu Ke cursed.
"Eight." John continued to decrease.
Now Wu Ke panicked, he said loudly: "Five gold coins, I'll take you there."
"Seven silver coins." John glanced at him lightly.
Wu Ke said angrily: "Three, three gold coins, I will take you there immediately."
"Six silver coins."
"One gold coin, one gold coin, I'll take you there..."
"five……"
"Okay, I agree, six silver coins!"
Wu Ke couldn't stand this person anymore, especially that bland expression.
He was being manipulated to death, and he said angrily: "Give me the money first."
John threw out three silver coins and said, "This is a deposit."
Wu Ke couldn't say how uncomfortable, a silver coin fell to the ground without catching it.
The partner next to him immediately picked it up and was about to put it in his pocket, but Wu Ke chased him and beat him up.
"It's my money, you bastard."
After snatching the money back, Wu Ke said to John: "Follow me closely."
John didn't carry a sword, otherwise Wu Ke would have known that this was a wanted black witcher.
Following Wu Ke, John shuttled through various alleys.
Although Wu Ke likes to brag, he really didn't lie this time.
He knew the residence of the royal witches, the tower next to the castle.
The tower is covered with green vegetation, which has not been taken care of for a long time.
Emily doesn't like having guards outside, so there's no one here.
"Give me the rest of the money." Wu Ke immediately asked John for money.
John threw out three silver coins, Wu Ke hurriedly caught them, and fled here.
Turning around, John didn't see the entrance to the tower.
"A means of magic."
He took out his wand and tapped on the wall. The bricks in the wall bent and turned into an arch.
John walked in, toward the winding staircase of the tower.
The topmost floor is a room with a bed and many documents scattered on the floor.
Emily was lying on the ground, staring at an old document in some indecent posture.
"Didn't I say, don't bother me!"
Hearing the movement, Emily cursed in a bad temper.
When she looked up, she saw the black hair.
Emily's angry face stagnated, and she said in horror: "It's you, why are you here?"
She looked terrified of John.
John squinted his eyes, glanced over, and saw the wanted notice about the black witcher.
"Of course I'm here to collect debts." John walked over, startling Emily.
"Don't move!" Emily said quickly, "Don't step on those things, they are ancient documents!"
As a witch who was trapped in the Black Eagle Tower and did not forget to study, Emily regarded these documents as treasures.
She quickly got up, picked up those things one by one and put them away.
After tidying up for a while, I packed up my things.
Then it's embarrassing.
Because Emily likes to spread out her literature research, it is very empty here. There are no tables and chairs, only a bed.
John was a little speechless, this man was really rough.
Fortunately, he didn't mind, and said with a half-smile; "You don't think I won't come to the capital, do you?"
"How come, haha." Emily laughed awkwardly.
She really didn't expect John to come, if not before.
Now John is in a wanted state.
Emily was dumbfounded when the queen released the wanted report about the black-haired witcher.
Not only that, but someone from the Warlock Brotherhood told Emily about the ferocity of the black witcher.
That Master Stregobor had his legs chopped off because of the black witcher.
If he didn't run fast, he would probably have been killed by Fu Rui.
Most importantly, the Warlock Brotherhood paid attention to John.
A witcher who can wield powerful magic.
This is beyond their understanding of the witcher.
As the creators of the witchers, they had never heard of such a thing.
Coupled with the matter of Stregobor, the wizard has a lot of vigilance against the black witcher.
There was a time when the witcher was the nemesis of the wizard.
Naturally, they didn't want to watch the witcher grow.
"Yadani, I will give you the gold coins as soon as possible." Emily said.
"That's not in a hurry." John shook his head, glanced at the nervous Emily, and said, "I remember you said that there are people in the king who know about the monument."
Emily corrected: "I said possible."
Finding that John saw a document that she hadn't picked up, she wanted to go and get it back.
John held the document in his hand, staring at the words and annotations on it.
"That's an ancient text, you can't understand it." Emily reminded.
Emily didn't dare to snatch it back due to John's vicious reputation. Seeing John looking at the document, she felt extremely disdainful in her heart.
John rubbed his chin and murmured, "The celestial spheres meet?"
Emily opened her mouth wide, she didn't dare to speak: "Do you understand?"
"Let's just say it." John shrugged.
Throwing this thing out casually, Emily caught it in a hurry.
"This is an ancient text, and I need to read the information to understand it." Emily said unwillingly, "How can you understand it?"
"Of course I have learned."
John glanced at the stricken Emily.
The document just now made John think.
The day when the celestial spheres meet and the worlds overlap.
What is written above is something that John has never seen.
"It seems that as the trial progresses, this world becomes more real."
John noticed that his own exploration had continuously improved the world. What happened to his grandfather's team of witchers?
Because of a trial, constructing such a real trial?
Let alone a witcher, even Dumbledore couldn't do it.
The more John understands this world, the more he can perceive that this world is gradually becoming real.
"Like a box of ice, the wizarding world is full of secrets."
John was very emotional.
Emily said: "Well, since you can read these ancient texts, instead of asking others for advice, you might as well find the answer yourself."
"Find the answers yourself?" John asked.
Emily nodded, and said with some embarrassment: "There is a library in the palace, which is the largest knowledge base besides Niubao. It stores history and various documents."
"I came here to serve as the royal wizard because I fell in love with the library."
She said with anticipation: "Can you translate the materials you have read for me by the way?"
Although he didn't want to admit it, John seemed to be stronger than himself in terms of ancient writing.
As a wizard, go to others for help.
Speaking out may make Emily lose face in the fraternity.
John also wanted to know more about the world, so he agreed to the proposal.
Since the library is located in the palace, John can only go there when Emily is there.
It was announced that John was Emily's bodyguard.
But once inside, John flipped through the documents while Emily took notes.
This stay lasted for several days.
Until the rune on John's sword flickered, John knew that he was leaving here to continue the trial.
"Where are the magical creatures?" he asked.
Emily offers him a location on a blue mountain where flying lions have been seen.
At the same time, it is also a reward from the kingdom, and if John can solve it, he can also get a reward.
John thought it was a good place to go and was going to that place.
During this time, Emily helped John a lot, dealing with the palace and finding information.
I can never fail to repay.
"Hope to meet again one day." Emily sent John out of town.
She kept a low profile, hiding her features with a cloak.
John nodded, and after he got on the horse, he said to Emily, "I left you a present, which should be considered as a reward for these days."
Emily was startled, and watched John leave.
Emily didn't notice that someone was following them as she said goodbye to John.
A group of people with the wolf-slaying mark left the capital on horseback.
