Chapter 719: Hope, painting

After Rodney's trip, Chateau had let go of some concerns, and only waited for the ships led by Rodney to arrive and picked up the leaders of Rodney from the east, even if the matter was thoroughly understood.
　　 Back to the residence, Xia Duo opened the planning note, and crossed off the line "Rodney's Leading Tour", then turned to the back and stared at it for a while, then closed the note and went to bed with peace of mind.
　　 When he woke up again, it was already late at night. Xia Duo was walking in the Tower of Time, and the surrounding area was quiet. It was no longer the scene where there would be apprentices rushing out even late at night.
　　 The current apprentices of the Tower of Time are already regarded as apprentices in the true sense. The courses are arranged almost slowly from morning to night, giving them no room for breathing at all.
　　 Become an official mage in three years. This is the bottom line that Xia Duo gave them, and it is also the bottom line of their future life. Once they can't successfully complete their studies, they will immediately carry a debt that is not small even for an official mage.
　　 Such a scene, how can they not study desperately!
　　 Of course, the more important factor is actually hope. With the hope of stability and hard work, it is not like in the past that only luck or financial resources can become a formal mage.
　　 Through the projection of Taring, watching the apprentices sleeping peacefully, Xia Duo also seemed to see hope, which was the hope bred by magic civilization.
　　 Soon Xia Duo came to the public floor, and as soon as he got out of the elevator, there was a flash of inspiration around him, and the charming person who had just separated during the day appeared again.
　　 It was late at night, and Niya seemed to be very energetic, and she took the initiative to lean against Xia Duo, and said with a little surprise: "You're awake!"
"Ok."
Xia Duo nodded slightly and continued to walk towards her destination, but Niya didn't ask any questions, and just followed, and only walked a few steps. He found that Niya couldn't help but yawned, but she hurriedly used her hands. Cover your mouth.
　　 So, Xia Duo stopped, looked at Niya, turned her head around, and said reproachfully: "Why haven't I rested until now!"
　　 Niya lowered her head and said in a low voice, "I contacted the teacher before."
"Ok?"
　　 "The teacher said that you did a good job, and then checked my study tasks, I—"
The voice behind 　　 was getting smaller and smaller, even if he could not hear Xia Duo's hearing, but he could guess it, it was just that the task was not completed and he stayed up late at night.
　　 To be honest, Xia Duo really envied Niya having a teacher who arranged a study plan for her, and she also urged her from time to time.
　　 But envy is not enviable. Fortunately, as long as Niya's study plan does not involve the secrets of the Giles Tower, it is shared with him, and it doesn't matter if Xia Duo has such a teacher.
　　 Of course, if there were any, Xia Duo wouldn't refuse.
Seeing that Niya didn't want to leave yet, Xia Duo stepped forward, hugged her gently, and said softly, "I'm going to town to find Broto. It's not a matter of importance. You don't need to follow me. Go back and rest!"
"Oh."
　　 After receiving Niya's definitive answer, Xia Duo let her go and watched the other side teleport away from the public floor before he continued to walk towards the teleportation room.
　　 It was definitely not an illusion. After Xia Duo discovered this incident, Niya became attached to him a lot, which made him a little happy and a little resistant.
　　All kinds of emotions, nothing more.

　　 When we arrived in Savile Town, Chateau went straight to the blacksmith's shop in Broto in the Southern District. At this late hour, most people would have fallen asleep, but Broto was not an ordinary person, he was a dwarf who was addicted to alcohol.
　　 basically means drinking to sleep, waking up and drinking again. For Broto, there is no real distinction between day and night.
　　 It is night when you fall asleep, and day when you wake up.
　　 In fact, for today's Chateau, day and night are just an extension of past habits. He also has dark vision, and he can treat night as day, or simply do not distinguish.
　　 When Xia Duo came to the door, Broto seemed to have just woken up, speaking in a vague dialect of the dwarf, standing in the corner outside the house to remove his pants.
　　 Xia Duo didn't want to see the next scene, and hurriedly shouted: "Broto!"
　　 The dwarf was a joke, and he woke up in an instant. At the same time, a familiar black hammer flew directly from the house to Broto's hand through the wall.
　　 When Broto could see that it was Xia Duo Shi, he immediately walked into the house without looking back.
　　 "Uncle Broto, I have something to ask you for help!"
　　 Xia Duo quickly stepped forward to stop Broto, and at the same time took out the pre-prepared distilled liquor and forced it into the opponent's hand.
　　 At this time, Chateau had already followed Broto and squeezed into the house.
　　 Throwing away the hammer, Broto habitually opened the wine bottle. When he turned his head, he happened to see the hole in the wall that had just been hit by the hammer. He couldn't help but shook his head again and again, and said angrily:
　　 "I knew I came to see me so late, it's nothing good!"
　　 After speaking, he took a big sip for himself, spit out alcohol and looked at Xia Duo, and asked, "What the is going on?"
　　 "Hey!"
　　 Chateau once again took out a few bottles of distilled wine from the portable space and put them on the anvil aside, "I haven't thank you for the dragon leather boots last time!"
　　 Nowadays, the dragon leather boots are worn on Xia Duo's feet, and they fit comfortably. As the saying goes, "Don't forget the shoemaker when you wear boots." How can such a decent young man like Xia Duo forget Broto!
　　 "Don't thank me, I also shared a share! Tell me what happened this time! You mages are just too much!"
　　 So, Chateau said straightforwardly, "I would like to ask Uncle Broto to help find it, and see if I can find a paint that can be stable on the surface of fine gold for a long time. The color is preferably silvery white or light gray."
　　 "Adamantium? Paint?"
　　 Broto looked up and down at Xia Duo~EbookFREE.me~ Finally he set his gaze on Xia Duo's waist and made a chuckle, "This is the first time I have seen an adamantine spell book!"
　　 "Is there any!"
　　 "Yes! But—"
　　 "But what?"
　　 "But not with me!"
　　 Xia Duo couldn't help but want to roll his eyes. Doesn't that mean saying nothing! "So, where can I find that kind of paint? Don't tell me to go to Danzo Kingdom to find it!"
　　 "Haha! Don't worry, if nothing happens, you have it yourself!"
　　 "Me? Myself?" Chateau was obviously not convinced, but he also wanted to hear Broto's explanation.
　　 Broto gurgled a few more sips, took a long breath, and continued: "I heard a drow assassin came to the north some time ago?"
　　 "How do you know?" Xia Duo asked subconsciously.
　　 But he quickly realized that the drow assassin had done something as big as the elves art, even if only elves were present at the time, there would always be some wind.
　　 "Yes, a drow assassin did appear!"
　　 "Then he should have been solved by you. In my impression, the drow assassin is not in the habit of only shooting once."
　　 "It has indeed been settled. Abbock caught it."
　　 There is nothing to hide about this, and at the same time, Chateau probably guessed what Broto said about paint on himself.
