Chapter 503 City Lord’s Mansion
Yueying City.
City Lord's Mansion.
The cold black iron gate with copper nails was embedded in the ten-foot-high bluestone wall, and eight heavily-armored guards stood there in solemn posture, holding halberds.
The battlements were dotted with arrow holes, and cold lights were flickering in them. The sentries in the watchtowers had eagle-like eyes, scanning the surroundings.
Barbed wires were entrenched along the walls, and the sound of a mechanism could be heard from the culvert.
The eyes of the cast iron animal head hanging on the city wall glowed with a faint green phosphorescence, and the sharp edge of the star-patterned crossbow arrow was faintly visible in its throat.
The City Lord's Mansion covers a vast area and has magnificent palaces.
The guests are received in the side hall.
A Moonlight Knight in armor looked respectfully at the young man in a white robe who was looking around:
"Mr. Li, the captain needs to report to the city lord, so he asked me to entertain you. I wonder if Mr. Li is satisfied with this residence?
But what else do we need to add?”
The female knight in front of me has a pretty face, a slender figure, and is wearing a green armor robe.
It was the female knight, Beiyin, who once held the blue bow in the fortress position.
When we followed the Moonlight Knight team and arrived at the Moonlight City, night had already fallen.
Yueying City is now in a state of war, and a curfew will be imposed when night falls.
Finding a suitable place to live is obviously a bit troublesome.
So Li Yi did not refuse Ye Yinghuan's invitation and moved directly into the City Lord's Mansion.
I took a quick look at the environment of the pavilion.
Abstract oil paintings hang on the off-white walls, and celadon vases are placed between the wooden bookshelves.
Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows is a neatly trimmed rose garden, and the leather sofa is covered with velvet cushions.
The brass chandelier casts warm light on the solid wood dining table, and a fresh fruit plate is placed on the slate countertop in the open living room.
"That's right, there's no need to buy anything else. Thank your captain for me." Li Yi nodded, looking satisfied.
"You are too polite. This is my due." Bei Yin was a little terrified, then seemed to have thought of something and quickly said respectfully:
"Sir, Yueying City is now under special control.
Ordinary people are not allowed to go out on the streets at will to prevent people with ulterior motives from doing something inappropriate.
This is the Moonlight Token, a first-level access token to Yueying City. With it, you can ignore those restrictions."
The female knight said this, presenting three white tokens in her hands.
Li Yi raised his eyebrows and took the token from Bei Yin.
It feels heavy in the hand, with the word "moonlight" engraved on one side.
On the other side is a crescent moon and a long sword, which is obviously the emblem of the Yueying City Lord's Mansion.
“If you have any needs, you can call us at any time and we will do our best to meet your needs.
Do you have any more questions? "
The female knight continued to ask politely.
Li Yi groaned slightly:
"By the way, if I want to buy some soul crystals, is there such a place in Yueying City?"
After a lot of hard work.
Li Yi's thunder phase, fire phase, water phase, and wind phase have all reached a high level.
Most of the stars are still at level 1, and Li Yi urgently needs a large amount of soul crystals to strengthen the stars.
"Soul Crystal!?" The female knight Bei Yin was stunned for a moment, then she looked thoughtful:
"Soul crystals are extremely rare cultivation resources and few people would sell them.
Especially in times like these,
Even if someone wants to sell, in most cases they only accept barter, so..."
After hearing this, a look of disappointment flashed across Li Yi's face, but he quickly returned to normal.
He was about to say something when the female knight suddenly remembered something:
"Oh! That's right! Because Yueying City was attacked by star beasts, the City Lord's Mansion was filled with guests coming from all directions to support.
The city lord seems to have organized several temporary trade fairs, and someone might be selling treasures like soul crystals at those trade fairs!"
Li Yi was delighted after hearing this:
"Oh? This is happening!"
Female Knight: "Yes! If you need, I can help you report to the captain and ask the captain to help you ask the city lord for an admission qualification!"
Li Yi smiled gently:
"Then trouble you."
