At dinner in the morning, only Xie Ona appeared in the dining room alone, and Gordon asked her to find out that Shellaya had returned to her bedroom, tossing and turning, and couldn't sleep all night, until early in the morning, when she fell asleep.

"It seems that it is a good thing to be interrupted, not only men, but also women are very uncomfortable."

However, Gordon did not have time to go to Shellaa to relive the last night's charm, and after he had finished his breakfast, he prepared to go to the city council and report to Lord Julian.

The municipal council was in the north of the city, and from the aristocratic quarter to there, almost half the city was crossed. Gordon, who was already exhausted from staying up late, didn't want to walk over on his legs. I should have known that I should have bought a carriage and then taken care of a coachman, so that it would be convenient to travel.

But this little thing is not enough to bother the mage. Gordon has learned a lot of spells recently, although they are all low-level spells with one and two rings, but they have mixed effects, and they can come in handy at certain times.

He pulls out a pinch of horseback mane from his pocket as a spellcasting material, and then uses a ring spell spell to "summon mounts" to conjure a light riding horse. Gordon turned on his horse and tried it, and now the summoned creature is more comfortable to control than ordinary horses.

As the son of a knight nobleman, the riding skills left by the previous owner of the body are still good, and Gordon rode forward on horseback and walked on the bustling main road.

The city of Clear Water has experienced the carnival of the harvest festival, and most of the citizens are still asleep, except for the cleaners, there are almost no pedestrians on the streets.

As I passed a pottery shop, I suddenly heard a rumbling sound like thunder in the distance. In a moment, a huge shadow broke through the early morning autumn fog and headed straight for Gordon.

It was a huge bear that was more than two meters tall even on all fours, and weighed at least as much as four sturdy war horses. Judging from its thick and snow-white fur, it is a frost bear. Its claws faintly emitted ice-blue flames, and its two huge red eyes were full of rage and rage.

Gordon could even feel the trembling mood of his crotch summoning his mount in front of the giant bear.

"How could a giant bear suddenly appear in the heart of a bustling city?" Gordon wondered. He didn't have time to think about it, though, because it was clear that the ferocious beast was coming towards him.

"I wish I had been a druid...... "This unique bear is likely to be the pet of a wealthy man or nobleman. Gordon felt that in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it was better to be able to subdue it rather than kill it. However, he had not learned the Mind School spell that could control animals, and it seemed a bit difficult to achieve this goal.

Gordon thought for a moment and took out a small pinch of hemp rope from the mage's robe. At the chanting of the incantation, he threw it forward, and the hemp rope grew dozens of times under the effect of magical power, and as if it had been given life, it writhed flexibly in the air. Under the command of Gordon's mind, the activation rope was firmly tied to a tree trunk with three people hugging a thick sword leaf fir at one end, and the other end was tightly wrapped around a huge stone pier on the side of the street.

The crazy Frost Bear didn't even notice the simple tripwire of Gordon's zuò, and in his high-moving state, his forelimbs were caught by the ropes solidified by the magic power.

The behemoth, which weighed more than three tons, fell to the ground violently, splashing dust in the sky. The huge inertia caused the giant bear to rush into the pottery shop, causing a clattering sound.

The shopkeeper was unlucky.

Gordon hurriedly unleashed two more activation ropes, tying up the four Frost Bears' backs, making them unable to exert their strength.

"The second time I used the activation rope, it was actually used on a fat big bear, which once again went against my original intention of learning spells."

"Quick! The Flame Claw is out of control again, and if you don't control it quickly, I'm afraid it will hurt others! An anxious female voice rang out.

Gordon looked in the direction of the sound, and a tall girl, almost as tall as himself, ran over. She wore a wild animal skin skirt and leather coat, revealing a flat, strong belly and slender legs, and ran like a beautiful female leopard, with silver long fluttering freely in the wind.

She was so fast that the ten heavily armed cavalrymen behind her had to rush their horses to keep up.

"It seems to be the eldest lady of a noble family. But her dress is a little unusual...... "Gordon didn't want to cause more trouble, so he put his collar up, covered half of his face, and quietly left.

The silver girl glanced at Gordon, and didn't seem to care.

After a small turmoil, Gordon finally arrived at the city council on time. It is a four-storey stone building with an ornate main building in the center, including a 300-seat circular council hall and the main office of the city government. However, the municipal councillors only have the right to propose and deliberate, but not the right to vote, and the real right to govern is still in the hands of Count Julian, the lord of Bishui City, who rules one city and five towns.

Perhaps Count Julian felt that the establishment of a mascot-like position as a municipal councillor would appease the minor nobles and satisfy their desire to participate in politics, which would be beneficial to the consolidation of his rule. But Gordon doesn't care about this, anyway, there are all kinds of strange political systems in this world.

Gordon dismounted in front of the council's sleek, tall stone gates, snapped his fingers, and the mount was countersummoned back to its plane.

When the two guards guarding the gate saw this scene, their hearts jumped, and they couldn't help but secretly say, "Which powerful mage is this?" You don't have to travel in an ordinary carriage, and you're so extravagant that you spend a spell slot to summon a mount? ”

Even a strong ** master who has mastered all kinds of flying, teleportation, or can summon fast-riding creature spells will not use these spells to rush away when it is unnecessary. In normal times, mages prefer to choose the same means of transportation as ordinary people. This is because spell slots are the foundation of a mage and cannot be wasted. Without knowing what danger they would encounter, mages generally reserved a limited number of spell slots for the most important spells.

The act of Dorne Lannister preparing a Transfiguration to meet the needs of the bed is undoubtedly extravagant. However, Gordon's behavior of using summoned creatures to travel just to save effort is actually a wasteful behavior in the eyes of outsiders - is this a city where there is no danger and can you use spell slots to summon mounts?

Of course, for Gordon, who relies on mana to cast spells, this is nothing.

One of the guards saluted Gordon and said respectfully, "Honorable Mage, what are you doing?" ”

"I'm Gordon Freeman, and I've had a meeting with Lord Castle."

At this moment, a human face suddenly appeared on the smooth surface of the porch. It opened its mouth and said, "Mr. Gordon Freeman, Count Julian is waiting for you in the city lord's office on the third floor. ”

Well, while many mages will use spells to add such a function similar to a gatehouse notification on the door of their house, please don't be so scary! If at night, such a talking human face suddenly appeared on the wall, it would really scare people's lives.

When the guards saw that Gordon had an appointment, they consciously retreated to both sides.

When Gordon walked into the luxurious office on the top floor, which overlooked the whole of Clear Water City, Count Julian was looking out of the window with his hands behind his back - perhaps these powerful people liked the feeling of being condescending and in control.

"Good morning, Mr. Freeman." With a warm smile, Count Julian turned around and approached Gordon, "I have been introduced to you by Guò Dorn, and you should know who I am. So let's get past the polite nonsense and get down to business. ”

He opened the drawer of his desk, took out a heavy money bag from it, and threw it over.

"You deserve it," said the lord with a beautiful beard, "and the citizens who exposed the conspiracy of traitorous merchants and defended the interests of the empire should be rewarded." ”

Gordon glanced slightly at the gems in the money bag, which were worth about five hundred gold coins.

This is a lot of money, equivalent to a year's income of a middle-level official in Bishui City. But for Gordon, it's just a ten-day profit share of the "Douro's Treasure Chest" - it seems that the adventurer's money is indeed the best to make, as long as you find a way.

After putting the money bag away, Gordon thanked him, and then waited quietly for Count Julien's next words. If it was just a reward for money, he wouldn't have had to summon Gordon at all.

Sure enough, as the mage had expected, Count Julian took out a letter of appointment tied with a red ribbon and handed it over: "You showed enough ability yesterday. I think Bluewater needs people like you. If you would like to accept the appointment, please sign your name in the bottom right corner. ”

"Inspector of Market Magic." Gordon meditated on the new position offered to him by the Earl. Due to the activity of adventurers, the commercial activities of Blue Water City have been driven, and a large number of magical items have poured into the market. Then it is necessary to have a professional check whether there are any illegal traders selling dangerous magic gadgets that can easily lead to serious consequences - especially those that are associated with the abyss and the undead.

This position is not of high rank, and it belongs to the middle level of the government department, just like the division captain of the Public Security Department. However, due to the need for a wealth of magical knowledge and identification skills, there are not many people who can do it. And because of the nature of the work, it is easy to get additional benefits from the merchants, so it is a demanding and eye-catching fat shortage.

"The lord of the city still thinks a lot of about himself." Gordon thought, picked up his pen, and prepared to write his name on the letter of appointment.

Suddenly, arcane fluctuations rippled through the room. The silver-white portal unfolded in the center of the luxurious office, and a middle-aged man in a golden silk magic robe and a neat gown walked out of the portal. He held a platinum scepter in his hand, and there was a natural majesty on his face.

"Lord Antelo, you're using any door again. If you want to come to me, can you go through the main entrance? Count Julian looked at the middle-aged man in front of him and was helpless.
