"The official flagship store of Steam and Stars Alchemy Room? No, why are the alchemy props and equipment here so cheap? The custom-made prices are also too cheap!" A student who was obsessed with alchemy stopped at the door of the store, his eyes as big as copper bells, staring at the various exquisite props displayed in the store, muttering to himself.
"Have you been to the weapon shop? They are all weapons carefully forged by dwarf masters. Look at that magic sword. If it were in my country, it would cost hundreds of gold coins, but here it only costs dozens!" Another student from a distant country waved his arms, his voice becoming shrill with excitement, and he tried his best to share his shocking discovery with his companions.
"It's Senior Electrolux! Senior Electrolux is here!" A cheer suddenly broke out in the crowd. Many students spotted the former student union president, Electrolux. At that moment, he was standing on the stage in the center of the mall with high spirits, holding a bunch of gleaming weapons in his hands, and explaining incessantly.
"Not 998, not 888, not even 688. This is a superior magic sword forged by a dwarf master. Look at the handsome shape, the hardness, and the smoothness of the magic!" Alex became more and more excited as he spoke. He raised the magic sword high with both hands and swung it down suddenly. The fine steel and stone in front of him were easily cut off in an instant. The cross-section was as smooth as a mirror, and debris flew everywhere.
"See? There is no trace at all. There is no limit on the number of magic swords like this today, and they are only 288 gold coins! With 288 gold coins, you won't suffer a loss or be cheated. It's truly value for money!" Alex raised the magic sword in his hand again, his eyes like torches, scanning the group of students with shining eyes and eager to try below the stage, and shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Moreover, I have the official endorsement of the Arcane Academy. In the next three years, you can go to any weapon shop with the official logo of the Arcane Academy to have your magic sword maintained for free!" In order to increase the appeal, Alex dropped this bombshell.
"Family! At this price, what are you waiting for?" Electrolux's voice echoed over the mall, inciting the students' desire to buy.
"Fuck, it's so cheap! I'll just buy them all!" A student in the audience was completely excited and jumped up and yelled.
"Oh my God, this magic sword is mine!" Another student rushed forward desperately, reaching out to grab the magic sword on the stage, fearing that someone else would get it first.
"I want it! I want it! I want them all!" More students shouted and swarmed forward as if they were under a spell, the gold coins in their hands sparkling alluringly in the sunlight.
"I'm not a magic swordsman, but I can definitely sell it to my younger brother back home. 388 is not too much!" A smart student smiled cunningly, already calculating the huge profit after the resale.
"I'm so touched that Alex-senpai actually calls us family! He definitely wouldn't lie to me!"
Electrolux was like a passionate auctioneer at the moment, standing in the center of the stage, patting his chest loudly, and assuring in a hoarse voice: "Family members, buy with confidence, buy boldly! Look at the quality and craftsmanship. If you miss today, it will be difficult to find such a good thing again! Just go for it, it will definitely be worth it! Next, I will introduce to everyone a popular magic wand carefully crafted by Steam and Star Alchemy Workshop... The price is just this amount!"
As he spoke, he stretched out his broad palm, made a striking "5" gesture, with a confident smile on his face, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Five hundred gold coins! Only five hundred gold coins! You can take this magical wand home and start your new journey of magic!"
For a moment, the audience seemed to be in an uproar. Countless students from the Arcane Academy screamed with excitement, and the combined sounds almost overturned the dome of the shopping mall.
Their eyes were shining with fanaticism, their faces were full of disbelief, and they were talking among themselves: "How is this possible? A wand of this level usually costs hundreds of gold coins to even touch in the magic market outside, but now it only costs five hundred gold coins? Are we dreaming? Is this true?"
But just as everyone was immersed in the atmosphere of crazy shopping, looking forward to the next good thing coming out, a dramatic scene suddenly took place.
A black shadow rushed out from the stage like a ghost, so fast that people had no time to react. Then, a big foot, accompanied by a whistling sound, kicked towards Alex fiercely.
Electrolux was like a kite with a broken string. He was kicked away in an instant and spun rapidly in the air like a gyroscope out of control. He turned 360 degrees seven or eight times without any blind spots. Then he rolled on the ground for several rounds like a broken ball before he stopped awkwardly.
This sudden change was like a bolt from the blue, shocking everyone present.
Their mouths were wide open and couldn't close for a long time, with shock and astonishment written all over their faces.
For a moment, the air seemed to freeze, and the entire mall fell into deathly silence, with only Electrolux's faint moans echoing in the corner.
After a moment, everyone woke up as if from a dream, and a fire of anger burned in their hearts. They never imagined that someone would dare to murder Alex in public and openly attack their beloved "family". How could they swallow this?
The students of the Arcane Academy were instantly furious. They clenched their fists, their faces turned red, and they were about to rush forward to argue.
But just as they raised their feet, they suddenly stopped, because they saw the face of the attacker clearly - it was the President Merlin whom they admired so much!
"It's President Merlin!" Someone in the crowd shouted, with a hint of confusion and surprise in the voice.
"Hey! Why did President Merlin hit Senior Alex? What's going on?" A short student scratched his head and muttered in confusion.
"Is it a war between two generations of student union presidents? This is too bizarre!" Another student wearing glasses pushed up his glasses frame, his eyes flashing with inquiry, and guessed in a low voice.
"This...what is going on?" The students looked at each other, their heads in a mess. They were completely confused and couldn't understand why this incredible scene was happening before their eyes.
Merlin rushed forward and grabbed the dusty Alex who was lying on the ground. With rage burning in his eyes, he angrily asked, "Asshole, asshole, who gave you the courage to make the decision on your own?"
