"Where did you get it?" Tina asked Adam.
Adam could only tell what happened to them on the fifth floor. At the same time, he was not idle, but took the stone pillar and the gold-swallowing beast back into the storage space.
"Kirav? I've never heard of it. If this person has such great ability, he should have a great reputation in Innistrad. Why is he on the fifth floor?"
"I don't know about this, but seeing how easily he handed over the Midas-turned-gold instrument containing the Philosopher's Stone to us shows that this thing is not precious to him, so it should be something he can make himself. It didn’t come by chance.”
The treasure had been found, so the two of them stopped staying too much and continued towards the exit.
Along the way, blind monsters occasionally attacked the two of them, and Tina would break these monsters into powder with just a wave of her hand.
"I really want to thank the king for letting you accompany me. If it weren't for you, I might not even be able to go back."
"You can't use your abilities yet?"
"Yes, it originally relied on the divine power of the Muse in my body. Now that the goddess cannot be contacted, the ability cannot be used."
After getting rid of another attacking monster, Tina continued to ask Adam: "Even so, do you still want to go to the academy?"
"There's nothing I can do about it. My companions are still there, and I'm still a member of the academy. I still have to do my part at times like this."
"You're quite a nice person." Tina didn't know whether she was praising Adam or teasing him.
"Actually, there is another reason. I think the disappearance of my ability should be related to Michael. He said that the gods here are all exiled to the underground city. In this way, the Muse should be the same. She is afraid of being killed by Michael. Found out and cut off contact with me.”
"Indeed, if this is extremely likely according to what you said, it depends on whether you can recover your abilities after we leave the dungeon."
At this point, Adam made his request to Tina, hoping that she would keep the magic crystal as much as possible when dealing with these monsters. He is now penniless, and she has turned stones into gold by her. Stone, if you don't leave some magic crystals to exchange for Gronns on the second floor, the money for the tickets to the academy will be a problem for both of them.
Although Tina is a princess, she does not have any money with her, so she has no choice but to accept Adam's request, but she will never do such a thing as taking the magic crystal.
This kind of thing was naturally not a problem for Adam, so the two started a cooperative mode and soon harvested a bunch of magic crystals.
After they returned to the second floor, Adam took Tina back to Adventure Town.
At this time, without the protection of the army, the adventurers who stayed here spontaneously began to protect their home on the second floor. Unsurprisingly, the members of the Adventurer Association were the backbone.
The arrival of the two people did not attract much attention, even though there were wanted notices for Xia Lulu and Adam on the wall.
The town still looked as peaceful as ever, and the war outside didn't seem to have the slightest impact on the place, but Adam, who was familiar with the place, knew that changes had taken place here.
Sure enough, when the two came to Douglas Magic Shop, a group of adventurers surrounded the place. If the mayor of Mushroom Village were here, he would recognize that the person leading the way was Jack, who was causing trouble in Mushroom Village at that time.
This group of people, led by Jack, were constantly attacking the store while constantly shouting: "The only thing missing from your store is not paying the protection fee! You can't hide in this turtle shell forever!"
No matter how they attacked the store, they couldn't do any damage to it, as if the house and the space were fixed together.
The group of people attacked for a while and then left in anger.
Tina didn't understand why Adam didn't let her take action. Adam explained: "Although the methods of this group of people are very bad, Adventure Town still needs their protection. Presumably this is also the choice of the townspeople. We'd better not interfere with this." Something.”
Tina could only shrug indifferently. As far as she was concerned, as long as her mushroom people were not touched, the life and death of other people had nothing to do with her.
After Adam knocked on the door of the store, Mary's voice came from inside: "I said, as long as you have the ability to come in, I will naturally pay the protection fee. If you can't come in, why do I need your protection?"
"Mary it's me, Adam, and I'm here to take you away."
Hearing Adam's voice, the store door slowly opened a crack. After Mary confirmed that it was Adam, she rushed out excitedly and hugged him: "Adam! You are finally back. I don't know what happened here. The soldiers suddenly If we leave, the entire town will lose its protection. We have no choice but to hire adventurers to protect the town, but, but..."
Adam patted Mary's back gently and comforted the frightened girl: "I know Mary, I came here to take you away. It's no longer safe here. You have to leave with us."
"Leave the town?" Mary was a little surprised: "But grandpa said that no matter what happens, I can't leave here."
"Let's go in and talk." Tina stopped the conversation between the two. She observed several figures approaching when the store door opened. It was obvious that the group had not given up yet.
After hearing Tina's words, Mary adjusted her emotions and led the two of them into the store.
Adam briefly talked about her father and grandfather and then continued to explain to her: "Because I have to go to the academy now, so you go and pack your things now and go with me, I will definitely protect you safety."
Mary's mood improved significantly when she heard that she could go to the outside world. She took a storage space on the shelf and packed up all the magic items in the store.
"You don't have to do this. You also know that this store will not be breached. Just put the products here."
"That's not okay! If the store is broken into, won't these things be cheaper for those people? These are all my family's property."
Mary's little money-obsessed look left Adam speechless, but that's okay, maybe these magic props will work in some situations.
"Then you won't take the things from Grandpa Jace's laboratory?"
"Don't worry about this. Grandpa's laboratory will never be entered by outsiders. Didn't you also say that he has returned to normal? Maybe he will come back on his own. It's not necessarily true. It's better to leave it to him. The products outside are all He doesn't care, but it's different in the laboratory. Grandpa will go crazy if it's all gone."
"By the way, I also need to leave a note for grandpa so that he won't worry when he finds out that I'm gone."
Just when Laura took the paper and pen that Adam handed her, Tina looked outside the store and said: "You guys prepare inside first, I will greet the customers outside, Mary, let me out."
