Oops, I became the witch's substitute
Chapter 129
Carol shook her head and sighed: "You wishful thinking, why should you exchange 50% of your mortal body for my 50%? At least you have to give me all of it."
After saying that, Carol signaled to the side, the scammer seemed to have succeeded. Although the magical box was suspicious, the scam was originally for novelty. The girl was unwilling to sell it at first, but the greedy person couldn't help asking the price of the box, and finally sold it at a not cheap price.
After that, the tavern was still lively. When Feilin saw this, he suddenly thought of something, called the proprietress to order a table of sumptuous food, and threw a gold coin in front of everyone, saying that he would pay first and talk about it later if it was not enough, and then he and Carol feasted.
Although Carol didn't understand, she thought that Feilin would not do meaningless things, so she picked what she liked to eat.
The two's behavior was not strange in Bereda, where there were nouveau riche everywhere. They just chose a suitable time and place. Filin quietly infected the atmosphere with deception, threw a few gold coins to the proprietress, and raised his glass to invite everyone in the store to have a drink.
For Filin's behavior of spending money, even if people in the tavern didn't know him, they didn't think it was strange. At most, they called him "boss" generous. In the past few days, people who knew Filin would only regard this behavior as a game of aristocrats.
"I want to announce something to everyone. Perris, as the head of the family, is not worthy of his position and has imprisoned his eldest daughter Xia Duoli for many years..." Filin spent money and gave a speech, and put the rumors he had spread secretly on the table. Some people who secretly monitored him thought that this guy was definitely idle.
As most people think, the noble son of the Morgana family came all the way to this place to seek justice for people who have nothing to do with him. He can only be regarded as an aristocratic youth who has never been beaten by society. Unfortunately, society can't beat him.
However, Feilin's specialty is telling stories. After telling the stories, most people in the tavern were filled with anger and ate a few more bites of meat in a minute. The tavern made money, the guests drank for free, and they were happy listening to stories and songs. Everyone gained corresponding emotional value.
The liar girl also got a free beer. She approached the seemingly rich noble boy as if running in both directions, and suddenly introduced herself.
"After learning about what happened to Miss Xia Duoli, as a moral person, I think I must lend a hand. This young man, is there anything I can help with?"
"No, I can handle it alone." Feilin refused with a proud tone of aristocracy, and then looked up and down at the girl, and suddenly felt that the other party was a little bit out of place, specifically, a little ordinary.
To be a liar in this world, you have to have some strength. After all, you don't know what power your enemies will use to hunt you down. Maybe they will hunt you down from the black and white worlds to the Yin and Yang worlds. It's hard to say whether they will lie in the coffin to revive you, and the girl's magic fluctuations seem to be inconsistent with her strength to avoid hunting down.
Of course, Philin can't judge people by appearance. After years of pretending to be a fake and even deceiving the god Abils, Philin knows that there are too many people with magical powers in this world. Maybe there are also people who are proficient in illusions? For example, with Xiao Qian's strange characteristics, Philin dare not say that he can keep his wallet.
Seeing this, Philin pretended to be generous and invited the girl to have a meal together: "But I appreciate your sense of justice. Come and have a meal together? Do you have any different opinions on Xia Duoli's matter?"
"This, I think..." The unknown liar girl began to talk freely. From the content, she was not a flashy person. She analyzed the situation of the Perris family and seemed to be a habitual offender who had been hanging around in Bereda for many years.
Philin talked happily with the girl and took the initiative to throw out several good ideas to deal with Perris, to torture the alchemist mentally and physically. The liar girl supplemented the details on her own. It sounds like this unknown girl is still good at grasping human nature.
However, Philin still winked at Carol, and Carol understood it immediately.
Carol suddenly interrupted: "I say, we have to meet up with Xiao Qian later, right? How long do you plan to stay here?"
Filin took out his pocket watch and looked at it pretending to be noble: "It's already this time, it's time to go."
Then Feilin patted the girl on the shoulder: "You are too weak to be involved in the dispute between us and the alchemist, but your idea is very good. I will thank you after it is done. We have other things tonight, so we will leave first. There are still many good wine and meat here. You can eat slowly without rushing."
The girl showed a flattered feeling: "How can this be? I can't finish it all by myself."
Filin waved his hand: "This kind of tavern is suitable for entertaining people. I have always been generous to my friends."
After that, Feilin said goodbye to the girl. After the two walked out of the store, Feilin took Carol away quickly.
Carol hesitated at first, but was dragged away by Feilin.
"Why are you running?"
"I'm afraid of being chased."
After running for a while, the two suddenly saw Xiao Qian coming towards them.
Recently, Xiao Qian followed Fili to find Bereda's resistance organization and retrieved the children from the orphanage. They have made some progress and came to Fili to report.
"Xiao Qian, you stay here for a while. If an angry girl comes over, you can just take something from her. Don't worry, she is a liar, you don't have to worry about it."
"Ah? Huh? Why?"
"I'll explain it tomorrow."
After saying that, Feilin and Carol disappeared into the night. Xiaoqian was stunned for a moment. Because Feilin appeared recently, many things were very reliable. She didn't think much about it and just did it.
On the other side, after the girl staying in the tavern was enjoying the feast, the proprietress suddenly came over with a bill.
"Excuse me, guest. You have spent a total of 19 gold coins after deducting the fraction. Your friend asked you to pay the bill."
"???"
Is this your noble arrogance?
The girl was not an ordinary person, so of course she wanted to settle a score, but she passed by a cat girl and was not found afterwards, and her wallet was also lost.
Feilin put the matter in the tavern behind. At night, the real Feili appeared. She completed the transformation under the moonlight, and even her clothes changed together. Carol's evaluation was that it was magical.
"Qingyue's goddess is obviously at the top of the divine level, even slightly beyond it, or maybe she deliberately stayed at this stage... But no matter how many times I see the magic, I still find it magical. The human body will become like this. Unreasonable, what is the power to support switching between the two forms? "
Feili frowned slightly: "Why do you look so expectant?"
Carol raised her finger: "I thought you would be naked for a short time when the moonlight shrouded you, but just like a crack appeared in the world, you turned into Feili in an instant."
As alchemy has developed to this day, the magic of it is that it seems that anything can be placed on both ends of the scale. As long as enough benefits are provided, the alchemist can get whatever he wants. As for not getting what he wants, what to do? Alchemists often do not blame alchemy problems, but will reflect on themselves and come to the conclusion that the price paid is not enough.
Therefore, it is also the habit of alchemists to fly bricks with great force. They can send structures made of pure stainless steel to the sky, without using magic or magic, and use mechanical power to create miracles.
Unfortunately, in this world where magic and true gods exist, focusing solely on science has become the most unscientific thing to do. Of course, it may be difficult to get into science, but it is much easier to get into metaphysics.
Although alchemists are not completely immune to magic and theology, human cognition still limits their worldview to the aspect of equivalent exchange.
Chapter 222 The kiss starts with Feili
There were screams of impotent rage coming from the next street, and Carol couldn't help but shake her head.
In fact, the communication with the girl was quite pleasant, but the other party's motives were impure. First he witnessed her using the magic box to deceive people, and then she tried to get close to Feilin. Both of them felt something special.
She's supposed to be a professional liar.
Carol is very happy. She has always sold fakes openly. Due to the technical gap, buyers usually do not feel that they have been deceived. It is difficult to say whether the fakes that Carol thinks are fakes, but she has no money. That's what he did at that time, but when he switched to film, it was not cheating at all. He couldn't mint coins as fast as him, and even stealing money couldn't describe his efficiency.
Arriving at Bereda empty-handed, there wasn’t much deceit or deceit. Everything seemed to be normal business dealings, which made Carol feel that it was too late to meet him: “Didn’t you say that Felin can’t lie? After bullying someone like this, be careful next time.” You fight hard."
After Feilin transformed into Feili, his personality seemed to become much more lively in a few seconds. His drunken face was also flushed, and he was delighted by the screams on the street next door: "Ah ha~ How can you walk by the river without getting wet shoes? Liars will You have to be aware of being cheated, and you will have to pay it back sooner or later.”
Xiao Qian sprang out from the corner, silently, that is, without deliberately hiding, and walked up to her. Only then did Feili and Carol suddenly notice her. What does this mean? Was the Persian cat standing on her tiptoes? The Heroic Thief was so terrifying that Feili felt more and more that she might not be strong in fighting, but she could directly steal the enemy's weapons.
"Sister Feili, Carol, I'm here, look at this." Xiao Qian took out the trophy, a nice-looking wallet that looked like a sachet, and it did have a faint floral fragrance.
"What a stunt. By the way, how was your talk with them today?" Feili was referring to the resistance organizations. Feili observed the various resistance organizations in the city. Most of them were secretly supported by different forces. The team did not Pure, some organizations are confused and difficult to lead, so they rely on deceit and Xiaoqian to develop from scratch, using the time in the orphanage as an entry point, and looking for people with lofty ideals from scratch.
Some of the middle- and lower-level alchemists in Beleda were depressed, and many of them were worried about the future of Beleda. In the process of searching for the orphans who had been sold, Xiaoqian got to know these people who still had consciences and established relationships with them.
However, letting Xiao Qian run the organization is really forcing her. The actual operation is now done by Feili by controlling the deceitful clone. The clone's appearance is that of a random strange man.
Xiaoqian told Feili everything about what happened today. She also hated the current situation of Bereda and did not want the incident at the orphanage to happen a second time. In order to protect the children and the nuns, she was willing to follow Feili: "They want to meet You and several others are reluctant to accept funding. They feel that once they accept money from external forces, they will become like many associations that only shout slogans and become puppets. "
Feili nodded: "It's normal. Unfortunately, in the early days of the organization, activities require funds. Even if each person spends one gold coin a day, it cannot support the operation of the organization. Since external assistance is not supported, we can only lead them to do business. ”
Carol couldn't help but be curious: "You used Marian's relationship to bleed from outside, and you are going to pass the buck in Bereda. We have also cheated a lot of research funds recently. It's just such a small city. How much money do you want to squeeze out? You won't cheat again, right? There are too many liars and not enough fools in this world, right?"
Fili smiled and approached Carol, leaning over to tease Carol from a slightly lower perspective: "Oh? Do you sympathize with them? Let's make a bet. I won't cheat this time."
Carol didn't believe it: "What else can you do?"
Fili didn't answer, but turned to look at Xiao Qian: "How is it? Are you hungry?"
Xiao Qian patted his stomach: "A little."
Fili waved his hand: "Let's go and find something to eat."
The three of them moved to the vicinity of the slum district. There was a cheap barbecue stall here. The boss worked hard. He was obviously an alchemist, but he took out half of the workshop for catering. This is a strange scene that can be seen in Bereda.
It has been night for a while, and the peak of popularity has passed. There are not many diners here, but barbecue is different from other foods, and there are still customers passing by to buy it.
Carol was confused: "Then what are you going to bet?"
Fili said: "Eat a free barbecue, and the boss has to say thank you to me. Do you want to bet?"
Carol smiled: "What to bet."
Fili said: "When you have time, just make me a useful magic wand, how about it? If I lose, I will cheat you three times the research funds in a few days."
Carol thought for a while: "Okay, let's bet."
Fili waited for a while, and then lined up in front of the stall: "Boss, how much is the barbecue?"
The boss didn't even raise his head: "One copper and two strings, one silver."
Fili asked: "Is there a discount for buying more?"
Fili threw up a gold coin.
The boss then looked up: "I won't sell them in bulk. If you want to pay one gold, I'll give you one copper for three skewers. If you can't finish them, you can't return them."
Fili threw out the gold coin: "Then the contract is established. No matter what, you have to roast them for us first. You are not allowed to sell them to others before they are finished, otherwise we will be angry."
After that, Fili released some magic power. It didn't need to be too much, just to tell the boss that she was not easy to mess with.
In fact, the boss thought Fili was a little crazy at this time, and didn't take it to heart. Anyway, the money was in hand, and most of the barbecue tonight could be sold, so he would make a profit.
Fili pulled a table over and asked Xiao Qian and Carol to sit down and eat barbecue leisurely.
Whatever the boss sent, Fili took it all on the table. They just ate it normally. After a while, new customers came. They seemed to be regular customers and trusted the taste of the alchemist more.
The boss was busy but still smiling: "Ah, sorry, the ladies have reserved the place tonight, that is, over there, and I can't sell it to you for the time being."
The regular customer was speechless: "Private... your stall is also reserved..."
At this time, Fili raised the barbecue in her hand: "This customer, how much do you want to buy?"
The regular customer said unhappily: "Twenty skewers..."
Fili said: "Come here, buy ten and get two free."
The regular customer heard: "Okay, it's a deal."
The boss's smile froze.
Carol blinked: "The familiar feeling is back. Do you want to recreate the scene in the tavern? But who will pay this time? Xiao Qian?"
Fili shrugged. There was a contract first, and the boss had to grill them first. The customers who came here to eat barbecue were basically for the cleanliness and craftsmanship of the alchemy workshop. When asking the boss about the price, he found that the barbecue was reserved by Fili. It was too troublesome to go to other places. It happened that Fili offered a preferential price, so he basically bought the barbecue from Fili.
The boss was full of second thoughts during the subsequent barbecue. He didn't lose money, but simply felt that Fili was making money from a close distance, which was more uncomfortable than losing money himself, and he was a little confused.
After eating 300 skewers of barbecue, Fili had 11 silver coins left, excluding the barbecue they ate themselves.
"Ladies, are you teasing me?"
"Boss, don't say that. I won't take advantage of you. I'll give you these silver coins. Please return the gold coin I gave you just now."
"Really?"
"I'm not lying."
After Fili finished speaking, the boss was confused, but agreed to the exchange based on the idea that it would be stupid not to make money. After that, he couldn't help but say thank you. Fili took the money and left.
Carol couldn't help but complain: "I did it, but isn't it in vain? You actually returned the money to others."
Xiao Qian didn't understand either.
Fili poked Carol's belly: "Look, there is no deception this time. If I am a little more ruthless, I can even make some money for free. But the boss is honest and honest in his business, unlike those alchemists, so it is not good to cheat him."
Carol is not without business acumen. After a little thought, she felt the charm of monopoly and thought: "But you can only bully the barbecue sellers. You can't ask Xiao Qian's resistance organization to go to the street to sell barbecue together, right?"
Fili shook her head: "Look, you still haven't reacted. Let's make another bet. Do you believe that I can make a thousand gold coins in a reasonable and legal way within ten days? You follow me all the way, I won't pay a penny, and I don't use magic to cheat. You can see that others can't wait to give me money."
Carol sighed: "Although I think it's impossible, you seem to be confident...Okay, what's the bet this time?"
Fili raised her finger: "There's nothing to bet on. If I win, you unconditionally agree to one of my requests. If I lose, I will unconditionally agree to one of your requests."
Carol chuckled: "Anything?"
Feili nodded: "Anything is fine."
Xiao Qian silently followed the two of them, don't make any noise, she was thinking.
Can such a good thing happen in this world?
Bereda's alchemy workshop is setting off a craze for artificial life, among which alchemy puppets are common and practical things. Under the influence of the alchemists, a Holy Grail War trend has even been set off. Many of the mass-produced puppets are already very good-looking. Customized dolls are even better.
The next day, Feili did not transform and maintained her luxurious posture. She and Carol chose a large puppet shop. The reason why they liked this shop was that their alchemy puppets were equipped with artificial demons. The so-called artificial demons It is an artificial soul with low-level intelligence that can already understand human instructions and imitate human behavior patterns. Feili is interested in the working ability of this kind of puppet.
After a short chat with the person in charge of the workshop, Feili went straight to the topic: "Our chamber of commerce plans to purchase mass-produced puppets with the appearance of girls from your workshop. The quantity of this batch is 1,000 units. The quantity is large. How much discount can you give? ?”
The person in charge looked at Feili and Carol. They both had good magic powers and were well-dressed. Thinking of the recent backlog of inventory, he said in a deep voice: "If you are sincere in buying, I can give you a 10% discount."
Carol stood up and said: "The service life of the alchemy puppet is not ideal. In the future, the repair parts will have to be replaced from your workshop. Each purchase will be relatively large. There are other large workshops of Beida that specialize in alchemy puppets." Right? It’s just a 10% discount, I think any workshop would offer such a symbolic price.”
The person in charge couldn't make the decision, so he went back and asked the owner of the workshop. The owner of the workshop came out to receive Feili. After negotiation between the two parties, he bought it at a 30% discount price, on the condition that the maintenance of the alchemy puppet was also fully responsible for the same workshop.
After the conversation, Feili said she would return to the Chamber of Commerce and draw up a contract, and left the workshop with Carol.
