The identity of the newcomer was the Rampant Wizard of the Extreme Sect.
Moreover, Angel saw a familiar figure among this group of people.
Saladin.
When the Rampant Wizard entered the shop, the domineering magic power caused most of the apprentices present to close their mouths. Some even secretly moved away.
The name of the Rampant Wizard was notorious throughout the entire Southern Region.
Unbridled, ruthless, cold-blooded, and powerful, these were all synonyms for the Rampant Wizard.
When they entered the shop, even if the other apprentices did not know the specific names of this group of people, just knowing that they were Rampant Wizards was enough to scare them out of their wits.
A short, fat man with a plump body tried to sneak to the back door and leave the shop.
But just as he pushed the door open, a knight’s rapier flew diagonally and accurately cut through his waist bag, causing the contents to fall to the ground with a clatter.
The short, fat man was startled and leaned against the wall, staring wide-eyed at the black-robed, soft-armored man who had thrown the rapier as he approached.
“What do you want? My… my mentor is…” The short, fat man spoke hesitantly and incoherently, with fear in his voice.
The black-robed, soft-armored man approached, looking at the sniveling short, fat man with obvious disgust: “Pathetic, someone like you can actually become a talent.”
The short, fat man dared not answer, but the man didn’t make any excessive moves either. From the items that had fallen out of the fat man’s waist bag on the ground, he picked up a white plant resembling a spider web.
“Spiderweb Grass, a product of the Abyssal Plane, has a chance to develop spiritual intelligence.” Another Rampant Wizard approached, a flame rising from his hand, and the next second, the low-level demonic plant turned to ashes.
Seeing this, the short, fat man didn’t dare to say a word.
Finally, the black-robed, soft-armored man kicked him hard on the buttocks: “Get lost, trash!”
Insulted, the short, fat man was not angry but relieved and quickly scrambled to his feet and ran out the door.
In the process of running, he accidentally knocked over an iron cage on the other side, and a gray, curly-haired girl inside fell to the ground with the cage, blocking the black-robed, soft-armored man’s path.
His eyebrows furrowed, and he gave the girl a cold glance.
The girl was just an ordinary person, and she was already terrified by the strong magical pressure when this group of Rampant Wizards walked in. Now, being shot with a cold glance by the cold-faced man, her face turned pale and lifeless.
The black-robed, soft-armored man crouched down and approached the shivering girl.
Everyone knew well the attitude of wizards towards ordinary people, and even wizard apprentices had a sense of superiority when facing ordinary people.
As a bloody incident was about to happen, even the cat-eared lady beside Angel couldn’t help but look away.
However, the reality was somewhat unexpected.
The man in the black robe and soft armor gently adjusted the iron cage and asked the girl in a voice that was obviously eight degrees lower than before when speaking to the short and chubby man: “Are you alright?”
The girl didn’t know how to answer and shook her head in astonishment.
“It’s good that you’re fine.” The man in the black robe and soft armor manipulated a spell, tidied up the girl’s messy hair, and then walked around her towards the other cages.
This sudden tenderness made Angel somewhat puzzled, and he suddenly didn’t quite understand the thoughts of these people.
“Checking for otherworldly smugglers, you all don’t have to worry.” The man in the black robe and soft armor said indifferently.
The Rampant Wizards behind him dispersed and began examining the otherworldly creatures here.
“Are they all like this?” Angel whispered to the cat-eared lady beside him, who looked confused after regaining her senses.
“You’re asking me?” The cat-eared lady pointed at herself.
Angel nodded: “Do they usually come here and check for so-called otherworldly smugglers?”
The cat-eared lady secretly glanced at the group of black-robed people who were unabashedly examining the “goods”, her face showing a hint of hidden anger, and whispered to Angel: “Yes, every once in a while, they come over. It’s really annoying.”
Angel frowned: “On what grounds can they check?” Although Kirk Street was considered a “black market”, it was still under the jurisdiction of Mechanical City. From the omnipresent Magic Eyes and stationed wizards, it was clear that Rosen was an extremely rule-abiding person. How could he tolerate such overstepping of authority in law enforcement?
The cat-eared lady looked at Angel with surprise and was about to answer. The sound of a black leather boot accompanied by the tapping of a knight’s rapier appeared before them.
“On what grounds can we check? I’ll answer you.”
The speaker was the man in the black robe and soft armor. He stood in front of Angel, his face cold and a hint of mockery: “Laws? We rely on its approval.”
The man pointed his finger at the sky.
Angel squinted his eyes as if he understood something, and said with a faint smile: “So that’s it. No wonder Lord Rosen would turn a blind eye to your actions.”
The man in the black robe and soft armor was a bit surprised. The hooded man in front of him was the only one in the entire shop who didn’t show any fear. He looked Angel up and down, sensing that the two of them were both third-level apprentices.
“You…” Before the man in the black robe and soft armor could finish, Saladin, who had been standing among the Rampant Wizards, suddenly perked up his ears and looked back at Angel: “It’s you! You’ve actually advanced?!”
Angel looked into the past: “Saladin, it’s quite a coincidence to meet you here.”
Saladin looked at Angel, his expression clearly showing a trace of fear.
His terrified expression not only stunned the man in the black robe and soft armor, but also left Angel confused about what Saladin was afraid of.
“Saladin, what’s the matter?” The man frowned and asked, then pointed at Angel: “Who is he?”
At this moment, all the people in the room shifted their focus to Angel.
The cat-eared lady also looked at Angel with a suspicious gaze, as if trying to gauge his identity.
Saladin was silent for a while, his lips moved, and he sent a message to the man in the black robe and soft armor.
After hearing this, the man seemed to know Angel’s identity. He thought for a moment and eventually said nothing, slowly backing away.
The man’s behavior made the people present even more curious about who Angel really was, even the Rampant Wizard had to give him face?
Angel was also somewhat surprised, but he saw it clearly. He didn’t think it was giving him face, but rather, the high probability that Sanders was behind him, and because of Angel, Sanders took the initiative to counterattack “Puppet Master” Bogula last time, making Angel’s position in Sanders’ heart a big question mark.
Moreover, Sanders was in Sky Mechanical City, so there was no need to provoke trouble.
After a while, the Rampant Wizards seemed to have finished checking the Rouge House and found no foreign creatures, so they all retreated like a tide.
Before they left, Angel noticed that the color of fear in Saladin’s eyes had not faded, which reminded him of the last time he met Saladin in the Purification Sea. At that time, under his “Fear Spell,” Saladin seemed to have seen something and finally fled in fear using a teleportation scroll.
The look of terror on his face was almost identical to now.
Watching Saladin gradually disappear outside the store, Angel tentatively sent a message to him: “Demon God? Or World Will?”
This sentence was what Saladin murmured before he disappeared. Angel didn’t know its meaning, so he used this sentence to test him.
Hearing this sentence, Saladin’s pupils shrank sharply, and he looked at Angel with awe.
Then he shuddered and disappeared at the end of the street.
…
After the Rampant Wizards left, the Rouge House remained silent. Although the guests began to walk up to the cages to select their favorite items, some people’s eyes were secretly watching Angel.
At this time, the short and fat man who had run away from the store earlier came in cursing.
He said to the clerk waiting nearby: “Hurry up and bring that half-fox girl to me. I’m taking her with me today! And, where are the things I dropped earlier? Whoever dares to touch them, I’ll annihilate them!”
The pile of things that had fallen from his waist pouch was actually just a pile of broken copper and iron, and no one had touched them.
Not long ago, when facing the Rampant Wizards, they dared not even fart. But when facing this group of first-level apprentices in the shop, they acted like lords.
Such people are not rare in the Wizarding World or among ordinary mortals.
With their temperament, it’s almost impossible for them to become official wizards. As the man in the black robe and soft armor said earlier, it’s a waste for such people to become talented.
The short and fat man seemed to show off, and began to scold the group of Rampant Wizards who had left earlier: “Those people can only bully these small shops; even if they had the guts, would they dare to check Sky Auction? Sky Auction has slaves from other realms every time, and their origins are unclear, but they still dare not.”
“They talk about working for the World Will, but it’s all about strength. When facing an auction with a wizard sitting in town, they are just as cowardly!”
Although the words were crude, the truth he spoke was not.
Indeed, those people only dared to make trouble in these small shops. If they really wanted to cause trouble at Sky Auction, even the black-robed bishop of the Extreme Sect would not dare. This is the foundation of Sky Mechanical City.
At this time, other customers also echoed: “Not to mention a wizard sitting in town, they probably wouldn’t even dare to go to Pierre’s shop.”
The topic stopped here, and no one continued to talk, but Angel became curious.
He glanced at the cat-eared lady who had been silent on the side and asked curiously: “Why don’t they dare to go to Pierre’s shop? Is there a wizard sitting in town?”
If there really was a wizard sitting in town, why would Pierre still run to the Profound Exchange Meeting to promote his shop?
The cat-eared lady was initially indifferent to Angel, but after the rampage of the wizards, she seemed to vaguely know that Angel’s identity was extraordinary, and her words became more respectful: “No, there is no wizard sitting in town at Pierre’s Punk Talent Exchange Market, and his own strength is not high. However, the ‘goods’ at his place have good strength… The power gathered there is something that the Rampant Wizards don’t dare to mess with.”
After listening to the cat-eared lady’s description, Angel was still a bit confused.
Although he didn’t know why the “goods” with good strength mentioned by her would protect Pierre’s shop from disaster, it seemed that if he wanted to find a slave from another realm on this street, he might have to go to Pierre’s shop to take a look.
