Chapter 287 Strange Things She wandered through the shelves, no…
She wandered through the shelves, seeing not only all sorts of strange magic scrolls, but also some unusual magical items.
Some are even comparable to the most advanced AI on Earth.
She quickly picked out a few that she liked before walking to the magic books.
Most of the magic books here were about making magic scrolls and magic stories. She flipped through a few, then tossed them back onto the shelf, bored.
After browsing the left side, she moved to the right side.
The items on the right look newer and more fun.
For example, you can draw a lucky box to get various products, just like drawing blind boxes.
Or it could be a prank scroll that turns an enemy into a frog.
One of them particularly interested Sang Zhitao.
No magic scroll.
Scroll Description: This scroll is exclusive to non-magic users. You can inscribe the desired spell onto the scroll in advance to obtain the corresponding spell.
Scroll Warning: Most spells require the spellcaster to use mental power to summon them. It is recommended not to use spells of level two or higher.
Besides the label, there is a blank space on this scroll, which is where the user needs to write their magic name.
She also noticed a palm-sized book of first-level magic next to the scroll.
After thinking for a moment, Sang Zhitao took down all the scrolls and books.
"Please help me pay." Sang Zhitao walked to the cashier with the items she had selected.
The store manager and Aria were talking about their past.
Seeing that she had picked out quite a few things, Aria couldn't help but say with a hint of pride, "See? I told you there were some really good things here!"
Sang Zhitao nodded and pointed to the scroll without magic: "This is the most useful."
The shopkeeper glanced at her, then lowered his head and calculated for a while before saying, "Fourteen thousand eight hundred magic coins."
"Is it that expensive now?" Before Sang Zhitao could take out her money, Ailiya exclaimed in surprise.
The shopkeeper pointed to the scroll without magic: "This one costs fourteen thousand magic coins."
Arya then lowered her head to examine the scroll.
"If that's the case, then the price is about right."
Sang Zhitao pulled out a handful of gold coins from her sleeve and handed them to the shopkeeper: "Do you have any gold coins from the Sky Continent?"
"I forgot to exchange your gold coins for magic coins." Arya looked at the gold coins in her hand and couldn't help but feel annoyed.
"It's alright," Sang Zhitao waved her hand. "I don't need to spend much money."
As Aria recalled their first meeting, she realized that there was really nothing for Sang Zhitao to pay for.
"I'll pay. I'll have my brother reimburse me later," Aria said to the shopkeeper, looking at the gold coins on the table.
Unexpectedly, the store manager swept the gold coins into the drawer: "Who said I don't want them?"
Seeing that he hadn't even counted, and looked as if he was afraid that Sang Zhitao would take it back, Ailiya couldn't help but roll her eyes: "Fine, whatever you want."
Aria was about to chat with the shopkeeper a bit more when she heard a call from Elle on her magic device.
"Our brother is looking for us, let's go back first."
Sang Zhitao nodded, but before leaving, she looked at the shopkeeper and asked, "If I need a lot of magic-free scrolls, could you give me a discount?"
The store manager paused for a moment before asking with interest, "How many do you need?"
Sang Zhitao tapped her chin with her fingertip: "Tens of thousands, I guess..."
The shopkeeper looked surprised and turned to Aria: "When did we get so many people without magic here?"
Ailiya shook her head blankly and looked at Sang Zhitao.
Sang Zhitao continued, "It could be hundreds of thousands, or even millions, or hundreds of millions."
The store manager's lips twitched: "Even if I worked myself to death, I couldn't make that many."
Sang Zhitao frowned slightly and looked at Ailiya: "Can't it be mass-produced industrially?"
Arya looked down at the scroll and shook her head: "I'm not a scroll maker, so I really didn't know."
After they finished speaking, the two of them looked at the store manager.
The store manager couldn't help but roll his eyes: "Don't even think about getting me to give up the patent."
“If the deal really goes through, you can’t do that much by yourself.” Although Aria didn’t know why Sang Zhitao needed so many non-magic scrolls, she still subconsciously helped her negotiate the price.
The store manager opened his mouth, intending to refute.
Sang Zhitao raised her hand to interrupt him: "Not necessarily. When I really need it, I will have your government officials contact you."
After she said that, Aria and the store manager were too embarrassed to argue about it anymore.
This time, the group didn't linger and left the strange shop directly, returning to their hotel.
"Went to play some weird games?" Ailey asked, looking at Aria and the others without any surprise.
Ailiya nodded, stepped forward and briefly recounted what Sang Zhitao had just said, and also mentioned the school's gap.
Ai Lei didn't care about the scroll, after all, as Sang Zhi Tao said, nothing was certain yet.
It was the matter of the gaps in the school that made him frown: "A gap has appeared in the capital as well?"
His eyes glanced at Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao nodded silently to him.
Ai Lei's expression turned somewhat unpleasant for a moment.
"I'll start sorting things out tonight. If things go smoothly, I can finish the general sorting out in about ten days. Once I get to the central area, I can directly address the rule anomalies."
Sang Zhitao responded when she saw him looking at her.
Ailey nodded and bowed deeply to her: "Thank you for your trouble."
After finishing dinner, Sang Zhitao was taken by Ai Lei to a building near the center of the palace.
"This is the building with the highest security level. You can handle things here."
Regardless of whether Ai Lei questioned Sang Zhi Tao's abilities, at this moment he hoped that Sang Zhi Tao's abilities were as the Sky Continent Guardian Tower had said, possessing the power to solve everything.
Sang Zhitao entered the room, and this time, her bodyguard was Ailiya.
"I'm here." She didn't say much, but those three words were spoken with such conviction that they demonstrated her determination, just like the promise she had made to herself.
She will protect Sang Zhitao with her life.
Because of the experience gained last time, this repair took much less time than before.
Sang Zhitao completed the arrangement of the Heavenly Dao Lines in less than eight days.
"Let's go to the center point."
Sang Zhitao yawned and looked at Ai Lei, who had arrived early in the morning.
"The central point is called Sand City. There's a magic train that goes directly there, so we can take it directly."
The so-called magic train looks very much like a high-speed train on Earth, but its exterior color is not white, but black.
"Why use black?" Sang Zhitao looked at Ai Lei in confusion.
To everyone's surprise, Ai Lei shook his head: "I don't know. We've been using this color for a long time, and it hasn't changed since."
"At night...aren't you afraid you won't be able to see clearly?" Sang Zhitao still didn't understand; she had never seen a train painted entirely black.
Ai Lei smiled mysteriously: "Don't worry, you can sit down tonight if you have the chance, and you'll understand then."
Seeing his reaction, Sang Zhitao could only suppress her curiosity and board the train.
The people of the Magic Continent prepared the most luxurious private room for Sang Zhitao.
A private room can only sleep a maximum of two people.
Logically, five people like them should need at least three rooms.
But in order to show respect for Sang Zhitao.
The people of the magical continent prepared five rooms, each with its own private space.
Sang Zhitao wandered around the room curiously, tentatively pressing some buttons marked with magic circles.
However, she quickly lost interest; everything here was too similar to Earth, except one used electricity and the other used magic.
She yawned and lay down on the bed, intending to take a nap.
But to everyone's surprise, just two hours later, Ayre came knocking on the door: "Sir, we have arrived."
Sang Zhitao rubbed her stiff neck and couldn't help but ask, "So fast?"
Before Ai Lei could answer, she murmured softly, "It's still a bit faster than a bullet train."
"What?" Ailey didn't hear her clearly.
Sang Zhitao shook her head and did not reply.
Seeing this, Aire did not ask any further questions.
Arya and her two companions had been waiting at the entrance for quite some time.
Upon seeing Sang Zhitao come out, they all greeted her.
The train soon stopped at Shacheng Station.
After the group got off the train and boarded the vehicle provided by the local government, Sang Zhitao looked at Lin Xiao and said, "The rest is up to you."
Having experienced the guidance he received on the Sky Continent, Lin Xiao was already quite familiar with it.
He closed his eyes, feeling the subtle vibrations in the air.
The vehicle moved slowly along the flat road, and the sounds of pedestrians talking could be heard all around.
His consciousness traveled through the mechanical hum of the moving vehicle, through the greetings of pedestrians, and with the vibrations in the air, towards the place he sensed.
"Turn left ahead."
“Turn right after one kilometer.”
With his eyes closed, he guided the vehicle forward step by step.
Soon they arrived in front of a magnificent building.
“Here…” Aria looked surprised.
Not only her, but everyone present, including Sang Zhitao, looked surprised.
The five large characters on the building inform visitors of the significance it carries.
"Sand City Museum?!" Sang Zhitao looked at Lin Xiao. "Are you sure you're not mistaken?"
Lin Xiao shook her head.
Sang Zhitao clicked her tongue and looked at Ai Lei: "I think you'd better have someone protect the important cultural relics first."
"Will there be danger?" Ailey frowned as he looked at her.
Sang Zhitao shook her head: "I don't know, but last time it was just a slight shaking."
Ailey gasped.
Slight shaking may not matter to a building, but it can be dangerous to cultural relics that require careful protection.
Before he could even get a headache, Sang Zhitao dropped another bombshell: "I need to contact the land at the center point."
Ailey was momentarily confused: "Huh?"
Sang Zhitao sighed softly: "On the Sky Continent, standing at the center is a huge stone platform."
"So?" Ailey was even more confused.
Arya thought of what had happened on the Sky Continent and couldn't help but twitch her lips: "That stone platform was pulverized into dust."
Ai Lei understood the meaning behind her words. Looking at the magnificent museum in front of him, the image of the building turning into dust flashed through his mind, and he couldn't help but shudder.
“No, absolutely not.” He looked at Sang Zhitao. “We absolutely cannot destroy the museum.”
Looking at the building in front of her, Sang Zhitao felt a little reluctant. After thinking for a moment, she said to Lin Xiao, "Find the exact location. If not, just dig a hole at that spot. I can see the ground."
Lin Xiao nodded in agreement and continued sensing.
They followed Lin Xiao forward and eventually stopped at a jewelry store.
Looking at the exquisite jewelry with its exotic flair, Sang Zhitao couldn't help but stop and examine it closely several times, until Lin Xiao finally stopped.
He pointed to a crown-shaped display case: "This one below."
Sang Zhitao turned to Ai Lei: "This is troublesome. Dig up this place."
Ai Lei looked at the exhibition hall, sighed slightly, nodded in agreement, and turned to look for someone.
