Chapter 9 Secret, a soul tortured for 300 years

After leaving Lilitris' grocery hut, the feeling of being followed emerged again.

Aaron didn't know who was following him, and he didn't look back. He pretended not to know and walked quickly to the 'beast cage' that the guard Xiu En and Tris mentioned.

The Beast Cage is an independent three-story building, no different in appearance from other shops.

There were two strong men like iron towers standing outside the animal cage. They had exactly the same feeling as Xiu En at the door. They seemed to be constructing knights.

Being able to have two construct knights standing at the door as security guards, the origin and background of this store is also extraordinary.

"Hello, I was recommended by Knight Xiuen."

The guard who looked like an iron tower looked at Aaron and stepped aside.

Aaron pushed the door open and walked in. In the hall, a charming witch wearing a wizard's robe and a pair of fox ears walked up to her. Her facial features were exquisite and flawless. When she saw her, she knew that beauty was a curse.

The charming witch exhaled like a orchid:

"Welcome, I am Irene, the manager on duty today. Are you here to hire a guard or buy a slave?"

There is a relevant introduction in "Nairn World Knowledge".

The demi-human race originally lived in the sub-plane, which was later conquered by the wizards of Nirn. After hundreds of years, they have become a member of Nirn.

This race usually has its own racial talents.

Some ethnic groups are born with divine power, some ethnic groups are born with a keen sense of smell for various mineral veins, and some ethnic groups can have a vague premonition of important nodes that affect their lives, which is called the 'reverberation of fate'.

But it only triggers once in a lifetime.

Due to this unique talent, this ethnic group was brutally dissected after the sub-plane they belonged to was invaded by wizards, and the entire ethnic group quickly withered.

In the end, for some reason, the wizards stopped experimenting on them, and the tribe avoided the fate of being exterminated.

"Hello, I was recommended here by Knight Xiuen. I would like to hire a guard."

"I understand, please come with me, guest. This is the price list."

Erin, the fox-eared supervisor, took out a form, with a faint fragrance still lingering on it.

Aaron was not the kind of person who couldn't walk when he saw a woman. He withdrew his gaze and looked at the form:

[Intermediate knight: can deal with 30 ordinary young men with bare hands, and can easily deal with two well-trained teams of 10 people after being equipped.

Employment price: 3 gold coins per day, the employer needs to provide food and accommodation]

[Senior Knight: Can deal with two well-trained 10-man squads with bare hands. Equipped with armor, it can change the direction of a small mortal war.

Employment price: 10 gold coins per day, the employer needs to provide food and accommodation]

[Constructed Knight: Able to use zero-ring witchcraft. After being equipped, it can directly change the direction of a small mortal battle!

If there are three construct knights forming a formation, they can temporarily fight against the intermediate wizard apprentice!

Employment price: 1 magic stone per day, the employer needs to provide food and accommodation]

[Note: The scope of activities of the Mercenary Knight is limited to the academy. If there are other requirements, the employer will need to pay additional fees.]

‘The Construct Knight is actually so strong?!’

After being equipped, it can directly change the direction of a small battle!

If this were placed in the mortal world, it would be enough to become a legend praised by bards.

'Perhaps those legendary knights circulating in the world are constructor knights!'

So, how powerful is the wizard who created the Constructed Knight?!

Aaron couldn't help but yearn for it.

"If the customer is not satisfied with these, as long as the customer can afford the magic stone, the shop can also hire wizard apprentices." Irene said with a smile.

"You can even hire wizard apprentices here?!" Aaron realized that the background of the beast cage might be more powerful than he thought.

"Of course, this is the Jialan Academy with four principalities, two kingdoms, and an empire! The most indispensable thing here is wizard apprentices!"

"As long as the price is right, we can find even high-level wizard apprentices for our customers."

Aaron was shocked by the strength of the beast cage: "Your strength is amazing."

"Thank you for your compliments."

"Excuse me, if I hire a junior wizard apprentice, can I have him teach me the "Nairn Basic Meditation Method"?"

"Is the guest a new student who just entered school this year?" Although Erin was asking the question, the determined expression on her face seemed to say, I can already smell the fresh air on you.

"Your Majesty is right."

Temperament is something that cannot be hidden from an expert like Irene who has been dealing with all kinds of people all year round.

"No wonder the guest can ask such a question." Irene thought for a while and summed it up in one word: "It's a creative question."

She explained with a smile: "In Jialan Academy, no one dares to go beyond the academy to sell or teach others meditation methods, including the most basic "Nairn Basic Meditation Method"."

"The soul of the last person who did this has been tortured for more than three hundred years."

"Three hundred years?"

"Yes, for three hundred years, I heard that when the soul is about to die, the wizard will use witchcraft and potions to nourish his soul to ensure that he can continue to be tortured."

When Aaron heard this, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and his beating heart suddenly went cold.

He suddenly felt that he wanted to make money by using the deconstructed diagram of the first meditation rune. His plan to help apprentices at the same time was slightly inappropriate.

Fortunately, he didn't stupidly carry the manuscript paper around for sale, otherwise the version of this story would have been updated now——

A self-righteous new student relied on his little cleverness to make money with the knowledge taught in the college. The unlucky guy whose soul had been tortured for more than three hundred years finally found a new partner this time.

etc.

Aaron suddenly discovered a blind spot.

Since this soul has been tortured for more than three hundred years, during this period, except for the first few freshmen, the next freshmen will most likely not know this news.

They haven't heard any similar rumors.

And Aaron didn't think that among so many freshmen, he was the most special. He was the only one who could write down the model deconstruction of the first rune.

That's an idea only a child would have.

Besides him, there must be other freshmen who can do it!

Inferring from this, there were also some freshmen before him who had achieved this.

As generations pass over each other, the number of this base increases.

There are always people who want to use it to make a profit.

Then weren't these people also arrested and tortured?

Aaron asked insinuatingly: "Didn't any of the freshmen break this rule before? There will always be reckless people who will use their own cleverness to sell deconstructed drawings of runes."

Erin's fox ears twitched slightly, and she saw something from Aaron's question.

‘Could it be him that is the node prompted in the reverberation of fate?’

"This question," Eileen said with a smile as bright as a flower, and raised two fingers as white as jade: "Two golden talers."

"I don't have any money with me, but I can sign a magic contract. As long as you are not fooling me, I will definitely pay it."

"Two golden talers are not worth my deceiving you," Eileen rolled her eyes: "But there is no free lunch in the world. We wizards believe in equal exchange."

"So as long as you listen to my answer, don't even think about refusing to pay." Erin's slender fingers gently scratched Aaron's chest, and the sharp nails tickled Aaron a little.

But he didn't feel the so-called fragrance, and his heart began to beat uneasily.

Aaron felt that if he wanted to default on his debt, his heart would be ripped out by this fox girl!

"Do you still want to hear it now?"

"listen!"
