Chapter 44: The Flying Cat
Dalaran is a prosperous city protected by the spells of mages. Due to its geographical location and mage status, it became the most special city in human society at this time.
This is not only the dream paradise of the wizards, but also the peace that ordinary humans desire the most, and a place of delicacy that nobles enjoy.
If Dalaran did not have a great destruction and built after the great destruction, if he didn't look at a series of Kenreto-do-led areas led by Violet Castle, he would be a city of enjoyment elsewhere.
The laws here are naturally tilted towards the mages, and because most of the mages are from nobles, the laws here are naturally tilted towards the nobles. At the same time, because this place is too prosperous and has a natural attraction to the common people, it is also the dream place of ordinary humans.
The only unwelcome here are royal families and royal members of a few kingdoms.
Dalaran is the popular weather vane in the human world; Dalaran is the largest trade transit place for human countries in the north; Dalaran is also the cultural capital of mankind at this time.
This is a huge city with a permanent population of more than 200,000, a nearby population of more than 300,000, and a daily migrant population of more than 200,000. During this period, Dalaran is undoubtedly the most prosperous city.
Under the prosperity, darkness will surely breed.
Where mages and city managers do not notice, the gray-black area known as the "Dalaran Sewer" is occupied by the cleverest, cunning and secret gang of thieves from the human world.
Morros is one of them.
With a smart brain, strong equipment and excellent skills, Morros is a newly emerging star in the "Dalaran Sewer". He has attracted a large number of thieves and gangsters, and is rampant in the gray-black area of Dalaran.
However, at this time, the sewer star was holding a piece of paper and touching his head a little at a loss. His eyes and eyebrows, which were only exposed on his face, were also frowning.
"Boss? What's wrong? What makes you do?" a confidant asked in a low voice.
Morros shook his head.
"Boss, is it the Sands Party that has robbed our territory again?"
Morros shook his head.
This time, before his subordinates asked again, he pinched the paper on his hands into a ball and stepped on the ground, and then said, "It's not these. Those cubs are afraid of being beaten by us. Recently, they don't dare to reach out to this place. Come on, young people, come here. I have a good deal to make money here now, come here."
Dozens of excellent thieves, gangsters, and thieves hurriedly approached the boss. After everyone should be able to hear him speak, Morros said: "There is a mage who is preparing to buy a lot of owls! Let's catch the owls!"
"Catch owls? We are not hunters, we are thieves, and stalkers! Boss, how can we do such things as farmers and hunters?"
"Yes! And there are no owls in the city, but there are only owls in the mountains and wild."
"I caught owls when I was a kid. This kind of beast is hard to catch. They fly very high and fast, and they only appear at night."
"That's right! Some breeds are still very scary, even hilly lynx are their prey! Boss, why did you suddenly want us to catch owls?"
“…”
Since they are all gangsters, thieves, and thieves, these guys admire Moros' skills. But when they are in danger or unprofitable, such disorderly chaotic people cannot be 100% obedient, and of course they will have their own voices.
In response, Morros quietly stretched out a finger, "A Dalaran gold coin, a living owl, the price of the mage acquired was a Dalaran gold coin!"
This sentence suddenly made the young people "boom" and the sound became lively again.
"It doesn't matter whether gold coins or gold coins or something. I'm born to like being a hunter. Let's put it this way, boss, how many do you need?"
"Boss, can an owl really sell a Dalaran gold coin? Really?"
"Where to sell it? I'll catch it now!"
"I'm careless, boss. There are two young owls who are unethical and come to my house to harass me every day. I advise them to rat tail juice and they don't listen! I'll go back and catch them now! Boss, wait!"
“…”
Driven by interests, the thieves were in full bloom. An owl and a Dalaran gold coin. What is the price of a god?! The risk of thieves stealing can only touch a few gold coins at a time.
Now, you can exchange for a gold coin when catching an owl, so a fool will not do it!
Morros smiled, and he knew that this would be the reaction. Although he didn't know how the little master proposed to catch the owl, would he take it to eat meat? He still followed the owner's instructions and tried to catch as many living owls as possible and handed them over to the owner.
"Okay, OK! Come here, this is true! A living owl, the younger the better, it is worth a Dalaran gold coin! An owl egg, good, can sell 20 Dalaran silver coins! Come here to exchange for money after you catch it."
"Remember, you want to live! Live! I don't want dead owls! Go quickly, I only have 2,000 living owls, or 5,000 good owl eggs! Go quickly, go quickly!"
The thieves dispersed and left the city and went out to catch the owls.
On the other side.
Orento Sefrosa announced her new ideas to her friends.
"Domesticize owls? Let them become magic pets or messengers..." Kelthuzad frowned and pondered the feasibility.
Owls are large birds, and in Azeroth they are smarter and more powerful than their counterparts on Earth. In the legend of the more mysterious Western Cardore, the owls are even messengers of gods and are protected animals for night elves.
Orento now proposes to use magic to domesticate owls on a large scale, and to domesticate these smart and powerful birds into magic pets or messengers for mages.
"Think about it!" Orendo confides his thoughts to his friends.
"Every month, when "Sefrosa's Secret" is launched, thousands of owls will fly out of us and fly to the homes of various mages who have ordered monthly magazines, and deliver them to your door! You no longer have to send them one by one!"
"And smart owls can also appreciate some simple human requirements with the help of magic. In the future, we can do our own express logistics, and we can deliver small express delivery or help people deliver letters through owls."
"They can fly much faster than messengers walking on the ground or riding horses."
"What? What is a courier? Oh, courier is to help people deliver things and then collect money, um... it's similar to a messenger."
"The elites among those owls, the smartest and most outstanding group of owls, may be used as magic pets for mages. No matter how badly they are, there are many nobles who are willing to buy such pets!"
