Chapter 13 [Leaking Cauldron Alley] and [Supernatural Plants] (Please follow up)
Ricardo turned and looked outside the wall of the abandoned church.
There was a faint mist there.
Ordinary people without extraordinary powers would be confused by this layer of fog and think that there was a woods at the back door of the Triangle Memories Bar, and a slum alley behind the bar that was full of chaos and danger.
They will instinctively think that it is unsafe and cannot enter, so they will ignore that area immediately.
And someone like Ricardo, who was at least one level stronger than a low-level wizard apprentice, could not only notice the fog, but also see some of the buildings through the fog.
The mist itself also plays the role of a large protective magic circle. Without the authority within it, one can only exit but not enter from the edge of the magic circle.
Ricardo now wanted to go to Leaky Cauldron Alley, so he could only go around to the Triangle Memories Bar.
Enter through the secret door of the Triangle Memories Bar.
soon.
Ricardo walked to the Triangle Memories Bar.
It's still afternoon.
There are not many customers in the bar, and many customers who want to go to Leaky Cauldron will pretend to want to talk and walk into the private corridor behind the bar.
Ordinary people would think that it was related to the woods at the back door of the bar and the slums, so they would stop paying attention.
In the memory fragments Ricardo obtained.
Old Richard came here with high school student Ricardo.
Therefore, Ricardo arrived at a closed box behind the bar.
He recognized the invisible crack in the door at a glance, and then walked into the box.
He found a brick of a different color on the back wall of the box and tapped it a few times with the wizard's staff.
Then, an invisible door crack appeared next to the bricks leading to the outside.
The style is similar to the invisible door crack in an abandoned church.
Ricardo walked in directly.
What comes into view is a wide archway.
Walking through the archway, the whole space suddenly opens up.
A modern market similar in style to the alley markets in Wizarding Continent appeared in front of him.
Ricardo saw a London-style pedestrian street lined with various shops and stalls.
He smelled various aromas in the air, including the smell of ice cream, curry, bread, strange herbs, etc... The market was noisy and boiling, with jingling bells,
hooting owls, and people talking. One after another.
Ricardo made a beeline for the extraordinary plant shop he remembered.
He hasn't had his dinner yet.
I happened to visit the plant shop, so I walked back to the Triangle Memory Bar, walked across the street, and went back to the Two Pines Hotel for dinner.
If you happen to have a suitable extraordinary plant that you like very much.
You might have to buy it on the spot, then go through the fog next to it, and take the extraordinary plant directly to the abandoned church.
That would take a little more time.
"Sir, would you like a piece of the Fortune Teller's Daily?"
"Sir, would you like a piece of the latest Billie ice cream?"
As Ricardo went straight to the store, vendors kept asking him.
He ignored it and just scanned the shops along the way in this wizarding alley.
'Wizard's Bookshop'.
'Demonized Item Shop'.
'Witch Auction House'.
'Pets and Extraordinary Pet Shops'.
'Magic Stone and Currency Exchange Shop'.
...
It can be seen that although the wizarding civilization in this world occupies a continent area that is far less than that of the wizarding world.
But it is also well-organized and has many modern features.
In addition, it can be felt that the energy level of items in such a wizarding alley is lower than that of an alley of the same size in the wizarding continent.
Compared with other alleys of the same level, this alley in the national capital is much larger than the one in the Wizarding World.
After all, in the wizarding continent, apprentices are just apprentices.
Here, wizard apprentices from low level to top level are respectfully called wizards of the third to sixth levels.
Ricardo walked to the back of the pedestrian street.
I saw a shop with a green front and walked in.
Compared to the previous ones, this shop is a bit deserted.
"Olivan's Magical Plant Shop is at your service."
After Ricardo walked in, a little old man with gray hair and round glasses came over.
He glanced at the green plants on both sides and found that most of them were relatively ordinary. Even the ones that shone with extraordinary luster were obviously low-grade. Some were not even extraordinary plants, but just rare species in mortal society.
"Boss?"
Ricardo asked.
"I'll take a look first and buy if I find something suitable."
"But can you show me the good stuff in the store? I want to buy 'real' extraordinary plants."
His eyes were already scanning the store. .
"Okay."
The little old man seemed to be the owner of the store.
"The variety in the store is relatively small, but firstly, the market demand is so, and secondly, we have to consider preventing theft. If customers have additional needs, we usually provide ordering, and then Door-to-door delivery service."
"Some good goods are in the back room. Guests, please come over."
He went back to the back and took out a business card, then handed it to Ricardo.
[Olifan]
[General Manager of Olivan Magical Plant Company]
[Wizards Association certified fifth-level extraordinary botanist]
Ricardo after reading.
In awe.
Unexpectedly, the little old man turned out to be a senior wizard apprentice.
The Wizards Association mentioned on the business card is the official wizards organization of the 'Empire on which the Sun Never Sets', the country where London is located.
In this world, wizards are in a state of total seclusion and no extraordinary manifestations. Ordinary people do not know this kind of organization.
At this time, Ricardo was looking forward to the wizard college recommendation letter that old Richard left for him in the basement.
Judging from the information collected so far,
the wizarding system in this world is quite complete and has many things that the wizarding world does not have. Academic organizations like Wizarding University must also bring benefits to Ricardo.
Ricardo followed the boss to the back room of the plant shop.
As he walked, his hands kept touching various plants in the front room.
'First identify the language of flowers and then talk about it, mainly focusing on extraordinary plants. '
While thinking, Ricardo had already touched various plants in the plant shop one by one.
' Coles Dracaena: A red-thorned herb with dark green leaves and purple-red flowers. Its rhizomes flow with bright red sap, which contains powerful energy and was once mistaken for dragon blood. '
'Flower language: Pseudo-dragon blood (the physical constitution reaches the sixth level, which can simulate the pseudo-dragon breath...). '
This is one of the most extraordinary looking plants in the front room.
'Variated dark wisteria: a deciduous vine, a different species of wisteria, with a strong fragrance. '
'Flower Language: Drunk Hands (can confuse others in a short period of time)'
This is a plant that looks like an ordinary wisteria in the front room, but after identification, it is found that there is a thousand things inside.
'Fire Rose: A red rose with sharp thorns, dark red leaves and fiery red flowers. It is characterized by its ability to release high-temperature flames when open, burning everything around it. '
'Flower language: Fire flower (can release flower-like flames...)
This is a relatively advanced-looking extraordinary plant that Ricardo found in the transition zone between the front room and the back room.
