Chapter 4 Lasseter
What is the most painful thing in the world?
It is when the thing you dream of appears in front of you, but you don’t have the chance to get it.
When the host shouted the words "Electra's Remaining Page", Xiuyi sighed, knowing that he could not leave.
The temptation of this thing to him was like a flame that incited a moth, a beauty who seduced a pervert, a gambling stick that lost in the eyes of usury...
Turning around slowly, Xiuyi looked at the simple pages, but the simple pages looked so charming under the illumination of the magic lamp.
However, this thing did not arouse the fanatical pursuit of the high-ranking merchants. In fact, many people are not willing to raise their hands at all, and they don’t seem to be interested at all.
It is not surprising that Xiu Yi is here. This cannot be said that the inheritance of Electra is not attractive, it is entirely because Electra's bad notes are used to being confused and writing wherever they think of.
When he first came into contact with Electra's notes on Purgatory Island, Shuyi discovered this fatal problem when the great alchemist was taking notes. He never took notes neatly, and he was always vague when explaining the problem, and the things he wrote down were often hammers and hammers. Often, the sentence you see on this page had to turn to more than ten pages before you could find the next sentence. This situation even spreads between different notes.
There are unreal records of flesh and blood puppets on Purgatory Island, and the remaining parts can be found in the two notebooks found in Winlington and Shanye City, which really makes Xiu Yi speechless.
In other words, to understand Electrolutela's notebook, you first need two basic conditions: one, have enough Electrolutela's notes. Two: have enough patience to play the word-breaking combination game.
This is why a treasure like this can only call out a thousand Jinweits but no one has answered it yet. Who can understand the three broken pages in a note?
But for Xiuyi, all the confusion is not confusion. Even if it is just a sentence written by Electret, he has to try his best to get it. Who knows if that sentence is supplemented with the content that is incompletely recorded in other notes?
Xiuyi raised his hand and was about to bid, but he saw Clark coming back from the front door again. It seemed that this guy's consciousness was still very fast.
Seeing that Xiu Yi had indeed returned to the auction hall, Clark smiled grimly and walked towards Xiu Yi.
He came to Xiuyi's side and whispered in an unquestionable tone: "Go out with me, boy, if you are obedient, I will use my strength lighter!"
"Are you sure?" Xiuyi asked back.
Clark was about to say something, but the host on the stage was already shouting: "Sir, are you not going to bid?"
Xiu Yi then realized that his hand was still in the air. After a moment of thinking, he came back and said to the auction host: "Of course, I'll bid for three hundred Jinweits."
Everyone was stunned.
The host stuttered a little: "Sir, I don't think you heard it clearly. The bottom price of these broken pages is one thousand Jinweits."
"That's it..." Xiu Yi was thinking: "Okay, I'll give out four hundred, it can't be higher."
The host was a little angry: "Sir, I don't think you have figured out the situation. This is not a place where you can play with it. The base price of this thing is one thousand goldwitters, one thousand!"
"Five hundred!" Xiu Yi waved his hand again, looking like I was talking very well.
The host couldn't bear it anymore. Even if the other party had bought a piece of goods from him, he could not openly provoke the honor of the auction house so much.
"Turn that guy out!" the host shouted.
Several warriors came over and came forward to grab Shuyi. Shuyi shouted: "Hey, hey, you can't treat a noble guest like this. Do you know who I am? Okay, okay, I'll give a thousand Jinweits! One thousand! But I want that thing now!"
The host's face finally looked good: "This is almost the same."
This sentence is very ambiguous. In fact, he is saying that the price is almost the same, but in other people's understanding, it also includes the host's agreement to give the remaining page to the other party now.
Xiu Yi was about to come to power, but Clark grabbed Xiu Yi and said viciously: "Take Feng Yu over, otherwise you will die!"
Shuyi pointed at Clark and said to several warriors close to him: "Someone doesn't want me to spend here."
The warriors forced Clark together: "Boy, let go of your hand, I think you know where you are standing now."
Clark shrank his hand helplessly and retreated.
Xiu Yi quickly jumped onto the stage, put the three broken pages into his arms, and then bowed to the host: "Thank you very much for your generosity, but I want to tell you something."
"What?" The host was stunned.
"I didn't bring so much money." Xiuyi said seriously.
Then he stood attentively, saluted, and punched the host in the face.
The host rolled down the stage and Shuyi echoed, "I won't do it yet! Clark!"
"Damn it!" Clark scolded Xiuyi bastard.
But the next moment, several warriors had already stepped forward to try to capture Clark, and several warriors rushed towards Shuyi.
Xiu Yi jumped quickly to the side door and entered the collection room, and was hitting a maid walking towards the antique vase.
"Ah!" the maid screamed, the vase flew out of her hands, and the man fell down.
Xiu Yi paused his toes slightly, turned around in place, and stopped his quick steps. He stretched out his left hand to support the maid's waist, stretched out his right hand, and was catching the falling vase. At the same time, he cooperated with the maid in a graceful step-to-step hugging position.
The maid looked at Xiuyi with horror, and Xiuyi put the vase into the maid's arms and said, "I'm sorry, beautiful lady."
With a slight force, he helped the maid up and Xiu Yi ran outward.
Several warriors chased after him from the hall and were hitting the maid who was confused by Xiu Yi.
The vase took off its hand again, and with a bang, it fell to the ground and smashed it.
Xiuyi looked back, shook her head and sighed, and ran out the door again.
Outside the door, the berserker was still fighting. He had already become wild and his muscles were as hard as iron. However, two high-level warriors fighting him were two high-level warriors, one of whom was a earth warrior. The berserker could no longer bear it. He was scratched by sword energy and was covered in blood. However, this guy was very determined to fight and he refused to retreat.
"Why are you still fighting?" Xiu Yi tilted his head.
He took out a cloud bomb from the ring and threw it on the ground, and a large cloud of smoke rose on the spot.
The berserker roared and shouted, but suddenly he was caught in his arm.
It was a completely instinctive reaction. He punched the person, but was caught by the other party.
"It's me!" Xiu Yi whispered: "Come with me quickly."
The berserker was stunned and was pulled by Xiu Yi and ran away.
When the clouds and mists dissipate, there are no signs of Xiuyi and the Berserkers.
The earth warrior looked ashen: "Bastard! Send someone to post a list immediately, and you must catch that guy!"
In the outskirts of Raven City, Xiuyi and the Berserker were roasting wildfires in a wilderness. Xiuyi was roasting a wild boy in his hand. After almost baking, he tore off a thigh and handed it to the Berserker: "For you."
The berserker took it, put it in his mouth and chewed it in big mouthfuls, and ate one of his thighs in just a few seconds.
Seeing him eating voraciously, Xiu Yi was obviously hungry for a long time. Slave owners always like to subdue those stubborn guys by hunger, which can save food and weaken the other party.
"If it's not enough, you can eat it all," said Xiuyi.
The Berserker was not polite, and snatched the whole baked child away, bowing his head and gnawing.
Xiu Yi smiled and took out the jerky meat from the ring and ate it on his own.
The berserker was slightly stunned when he saw Xiu Yi's creation of these things out of nothing, but said nothing, just continued to eat.
"What's your name?" Xiu Yi asked.
"Lasset. Where are you?"
"Hiens Strick, but that's not my real name. My real name is Soiglare."
"Oh." The Berserker looked unresponsive, obviously he had never heard of the name.
"How did you become a slave?" Xiuyi asked him.
"A fleet in the Southern Continent robbed my village." A dark line flashed in Lasset's eyes: "They brought a lot of armed forces under the name of doing business. When they encounter those who are stronger than themselves, they hide, when they encounter those who are similar in strength, they trade equally, and when they encounter those who are not as strong as them, they burn, kill and plunder."
"I didn't expect that the businessman would do such a thing."
"Some merchants do, some merchants don't. This auction house belongs to the Born family, half of this family is pirates and half of it is merchants. My village was looted by them, and many people are dead."
"They are very powerful locally?"
"The Lord of Raven City has a very close relationship with the Born family." Lasseter looked at Xiu Yi with a strange look: "You don't know? Your behavior just now has provoked the entire Raven City."
Xiu Yi was also slightly stunned, and he smiled bitterly: "Sometimes things are like this. The more you don't want to cause trouble, the more trouble will follow you."
Lasset shrugged. He was a slave anyway, and no matter how bad the situation was, it would not be worse than now. So he didn't care. He just lowered his head and ate wildly. It seemed that he wanted to fill his stomach before he died. A pound of more than ten pounds was left after his skeleton.
After lowering his head and pondering for a while, Xiu Yi stood up.
Lasseter asked him, "Where are you going?"
"Where can you go? Of course, it's going back to Raven City." Xiu Yi said lightly.
"Are you crazy? What are you going back to do?" The berserkers in the East Continent not only fought fiercely, but also had always been arrogant, but even so, they were not so crazy that they had to go back to die even though they knew they had offended the entire Raven City.
"I have to go back to Raven City, I'm going to buy some materials there." Xiuyi said seriously.
"Are you an alchemist?" Lasseter understood a little.
Xiu Yi nodded: "Yes, just before I met you, I just figured out a few alchemy problems, which might help me solve some problems and create some good things. I have to implement them first before my inspiration disappears."
"But you have become a wanted criminal now."
"I'm used to it." Xiuyi shrugged.
