After meeting the beautiful Princess Elizabeth and getting to know the king and the villain, he casually placed a magic mark on the princess.
It’s not that he coveted the beauty of the princess, but since he was already here, he had to do a higher-level mission to justify the few days he had wasted.
Soon, five days passed, and Wayne was thinking about whether he should go back to the wizarding world first, say hello to his acquaintances in the city of Beauclair, and then deal with the tasks in this world.
The riot he had been looking forward to for days finally happened.
On this day, Wayne was leisurely watching a show in a circus in the royal city. The show performed by a group of medieval clowns was quite interesting.
This gave Wayne an idea. He wanted to take back some novels, scripts and literary works from this world, whether as gifts to others or as a plagiarist. Maybe he could even pretend to be a great writer or a great literary figure, get some attention and gain a lot of unexpected benefits.
However, just as he was enjoying the show, a large group of soldiers and guards suddenly ran down the street with weapons in their hands. They began searching for suspicious people in various shops and blocked all the gates of the royal city, making the residents of the entire royal city very nervous.
Apparently, the plot of the movie had begun. If he remembered correctly, it seemed that a monk had stolen the magic beans that could connect to the territory of the giants in the sky, and wanted to take them to the monastery to destroy it or something. However, he was chased by soldiers on the way, and coincidentally the beans were handed over to the protagonist of the movie.
The crown was stolen by Rodrick, who might marry the princess. This guy is a bad guy who wants to use the power of the giants to overthrow the current king and rule the entire kingdom.
So, Wayne decided to wait a little longer. When the time was right, he could kill Roderick, get the crown, and complete another mission at the same time.
Anyway, at night, when the magic vine grows stronger and forms a road to the sky, it will be his turn to act.
So, Wayne ignored the panic outside on the street, and leisurely returned to his rented hotel, reading a book while waiting for things to develop.
Soon, it was evening and heavy rain suddenly began to fall from the sky. Seeing this, Wayne knew that the time was almost up.
The magic beans that the male protagonist got were stimulated to grow because of the heavy rain in the sky, forming a huge magic vine.
He changed into a set of rainproof leather armor, put on a cloak to protect himself from the rain, controlled the magic flying carpet, and left the hotel directly. At the same time, he also flew away from the royal city of the Albilan Kingdom and flew out of the city.
Things went smoothly, and without having to wait long, in Wayne's dark vision, a huge magic vine suddenly began to grow rapidly two or three kilometers outside the royal city, rising rapidly at a speed of almost one or two meters per second. In just a few minutes, it had grown to a height of one or two hundred meters, connecting the sky and the earth, and was very conspicuous.
After seeing the magic vine, he did not wait any longer and flew towards that location on the magic carpet.
Although it was quite troublesome to fly in the rainstorm, the distance of two or three kilometers passed in a flash. It took about ten minutes for Wayne to fly under the magic vine that had grown to almost a thousand meters high and had penetrated deep into the clouds. He saw the mess at the root of the vine.
As expected, Wayne found the male protagonist unconscious on the dirt ground.
It was unlucky for this guy. He was fooled by the escaped monk and exchanged his horse for magic beans of unknown use. As a result, when he was at home, the magic beans fell into the mud under the house. Then it rained heavily, and his house, along with Princess Elizabeth who had escaped from her marriage and came to his house to take shelter from the rain, were sent to the sky and to the territory of the giants.
Seeing the real owner, Wayne didn't hesitate and searched the remaining five magic beans from him while he was still unconscious. This thing is a good thing and can almost be regarded as one of the most valuable treasures in the movie.
Moreover, it is a magical item that the current monks can no longer produce. It is almost unique and will never be obtained in the future.
It would be such a waste to leave them to the people of this world. Maybe he could take them back and ask the warlocks to study them to see if he could copy these magic beans. If possible, even if they were used as engineering weapons, they would be very powerful.
After getting the magic beans, Wayne looked up at the magic vines that had already penetrated deep into the sky and had no choice but to climb up now.
He hasn't received the task yet, so it would be a waste for him to finish the job now.
So he flew the magic carpet again, found a place to shelter from the rain nearby, and entered a state of meditation.
Soon, it was the next day. The rainstorm had ended, and the early morning sun mixed with the fragrance of the rain-soaked soil wafted into Wayne's nose.
He opened his eyes and walked out of the shelter. More plant fragrances filled his face, sweeping away the dullness of last night's rainstorm.
Looking up, I saw a group of well-equipped knights coming to the place where the vines grew last night. Leading them was a man wearing a golden helmet and armor. He was the king of Abilian, King Brawell.
Seeing that the real host had arrived, Wayne put on his own set of gorgeous green dragon armor, carried the huge Sword of Promise and Victory on his back, boarded the magic flying carpet, and flew towards them.
This operation was not for hiding, so Wayne did not fly high, only a dozen meters above the ground. When he flew to about two hundred meters away from the king, he was discovered by the soldiers around the king.
The strength of the Albyrian Kingdom is quite good. Not only do they have knights in full plate armor, but almost all the guards of the royal city are equipped with iron armor. They are all standard equipment. Although the quality is not particularly good, at least the technological level has reached a certain level, which is much stronger than some countries in the wizarding world.
And as he said before, four large automatic crossbows were installed on the walls of the royal city. They were very powerful and could even kill giants. Wayne planned to take one back to study before leaving. If there was not enough space on the space bracelet, he would even take them all away.
Not only the king, but also the guards, soldiers, and generals present were very surprised to see Wayne flying over on the magic carpet. Some soldiers even opened their mouths wide as if they had seen a miracle.
In this world, magic is just a legend and exists only in stories. Seeing someone who can fly in the sky with their own eyes is undoubtedly a phenomenon that subverts their cognition.
However, Wayne's armor was both gorgeous and majestic, and he himself looked tall and handsome, and he looked like a human, so he did not arouse much hostility.
After seeing Wayne, not everyone's ability to accept was so slow. King Brawell and the bespectacled General Hanwich beside him were the first to react.
The old general was the most cautious. He turned around and shouted to all the soldiers:
"Stay alert!"
"Protect the King!"
Then, together with Captain Edmont of the Royal Guard who had also reacted, they took out their weapons, stood in front of the king, and looked at Wayne flying in the sky with a wary look on their faces.
Captain Amont of the Royal Guard took out the crossbow from behind him, pointed it at Wayne, and shouted:
"Who are you? Why are you here?"
Faced with these people's vigilance, Wayne slowly slowed down his magic carpet and stopped it about thirty or forty meters away from them. Then he lowered the flying altitude, jumped off the carpet and landed on the ground.
After both parties looked at each other, he looked at the king who was wearing golden armor and said, "Your Majesty King Brawell, I have no ill will. You can call me Master Wayne."
"I came here because I found this magic vine."
He glanced calmly at the soldiers around the king, and then said, "You can think of me as the wizard in the story, a user of magic. I am here to deal with the giants in the sky."
Hearing that Wayne could accurately mention the magic vines and the giants, the king and generals present immediately frowned and asked in disbelief: "Giant tribe?"
"Do the giants mentioned in the story really exist?"
King Brawell had just learned from the male protagonist Jack that his daughter, Princess Elizabeth, had been taken to heaven by magic vines. When he heard about the giants, he immediately became more worried about his daughter's safety.
Wayne's expression did not change. He just pointed at the huge magic vine that had penetrated deep into the sky and said, "Hasn't this kind of magic vine been mentioned in the stories you left behind hundreds of years ago?"
"This is not a story, but a real event that happened in the past."
"Since this kind of magic vine exists, then it is normal for giants to exist as well, isn't it?"
After that, Wayne continued to look at the king and said directly:
"Your Majesty, I am going to follow this magic vine into the Giant Kingdom. The Giants are very powerful, so I must do a good job of reconnaissance in advance."
"You in the Kingdom of Abilian had better prepare yourself as well. Be prepared for the giants to come to the surface."
After saying that, Wayne prepared to bypass the king and his soldiers and head towards the location of the magic vines.
Of course, this was just a tactic of playing hard to get. If he wanted to climb up, he would have started last night. Now he was just waiting for the king to ask him for help.
It turned out to be a good idea. Princess Elizabeth, as the king's only daughter, was still very much loved.
When King Brawell saw Wayne get back on the magic carpet and seemed about to fly directly to the magic vines.
Although he still had many doubts in his heart and did not believe what Wayne said, he still spoke loudly: "Master Wayne, if you want to go to the top of this magic vine, to the country of giants you mentioned."
"Can you please rescue my daughter, Elizabeth?"
"I am willing to pay you a thousand gold coins as a reward."
When the king mentioned the bounty, the surrounding soldiers were in an uproar.
Wayne remained calm on the surface when he heard this, but he was actually a little surprised by the king's offer.
After living in the royal city for a while, he discovered that in this world, the purchasing power of gold coins was quite high and the purity was also very high. They were incomparable to the crudely made and inferior gold coins shipped abroad from the north. An ordinary pack horse could be purchased with only two gold coins, and that was a high price.
A reward of one thousand gold coins is an astronomical figure that is hard for ordinary people to imagine.
However, for Wayne, it was undoubtedly ridiculous to think of getting rid of him with such a small amount of money.
He remembered very clearly that the giant in the sky had brought a whole room full of gold, silver and treasures into the castle. These were the wealth that the giants had robbed when they wreaked havoc on the world hundreds of years ago. These things would undoubtedly become his trophies. Compared with these wealth, the thousand gold coins were just a small profit.
However, as the king's voice fell, the system reminder sounded in Wayne's mind.
Ding! Trigger the mission [Rescue the Princess Who Runs Away from Marriage] Master Level.
Accept or not.
Wayne didn't hesitate, this was what he was waiting for.
After immediately accepting the task assigned by the system, Wayne looked at King Brawell calmly. With a wave of his hand, tens of thousands of gold coins appeared on the ground and piled up into a small hill. Each gold coin was golden and piled on the ground, so high that it could reach the chest of an ordinary person.
This scene immediately stunned everyone present. With so many gold coins, perhaps only His Majesty the King would be lucky enough to see them in his own treasury.
Ordinary people have never seen such a scene.
Of course, Wayne is in debt now, and he doesn't have so many gold coins in his hands. This is just a loan he took from Vivian to make up for the loss.
Looking at the stunned soldiers and king present, Master Wayne waved his hand again, and all the gold coins piled up like a mountain disappeared and returned to his purse.
After greatly improving his status, he said calmly, "Your Majesty King Brawell, do you think a wizard as powerful as me would lack gold or power?"
"However, I will rescue your daughter, Princess Elizabeth, and I will also take care of those giants in Giant Territory."
"You just need to remember that you owe me a favor. When the time comes, I will ask for it back from you."
