Hello, is this a letter addressed to Demon Fortress?

Chapter 507 The Tower's Apology

The Thousand Pagodas are roughly divided into four regions.

The outermost area is the foreign trade zone, followed by the magic zone, then the Thousand Towers zone, and finally the ring tower zone at the very center.

Similar to the concentric rings of the capital city of Carter, the city-state is divided into different regions.

After entering the city gate, they arrived at the foreign trade zone.

The wide main street was bustling with people, and the shops on both sides had all sorts of signs hanging on them.

The vendors' cries and pedestrians' conversations mingled together, creating a lively atmosphere.

But neither Lin Gui nor Elvia cared about these things.

The fact that the other side sent people to meet them in advance means that their movements were being monitored.

It's likely that someone tipped them off when Greenwood Court left.

The deaths of Edwin and other legends, along with the fact that the half-demons in Bronze Gate became a transport fleet, left the Thousand Towers with no way to attack.

None of their actions could possibly earn them a friendly attitude from Qianta.

The so-called welcome may be a show of force.

Both Lin Gui and Elvia thought so.

However, when they arrived at their destination, in front of a building located in a bustling commercial district.

Everyone was taken aback when they saw the sign above the door.

A brand-new sign hangs above the door, with black background and gold lettering, the edges painted with clear varnish, and it reads:

[Seven Copper Coins Post Office, Thousand Pagoda Branch.]

Seeing Lin Gui and Elvia in a daze, the soul mage stopped and turned to say something.

"You'll find out once you go inside."

Elvia and Lin Gui exchanged a glance, both sensing each other's wariness.

Elvia pushed open the door first and went in, with Lin Gui following closely behind her.

The interior is much larger than it appears from the outside.

The light-colored wooden floor was polished smooth and flat, and several landscape paintings hung on the wall.

The light from the magic stone shone down from above, illuminating the entire space brightly yet softly.

In the center was a dark-colored guest table, on which sat a pot of steaming tea and several exquisite teacups.

Behind the guest table sat a woman.

She wore a deep purple robe with fine silver embroidery on the collar.

Her hair was loosely coiled at the back of her head, with a few strands of dark brown hair falling down her shoulders.

Her face was delicate and beautiful, with exquisite features and an indescribable sense of mystery in her eyes.

She held a slender staff in her hand.

The staff is entirely silver-white, with a semi-transparent gray crystal inlaid at the top.

Elvia's senses reached out without hesitation.

no respond.

It's like throwing a stone into deep water; it doesn't even make a splash.

The woman's voice was gentle and steady, like soothing two frightened birds.

"Don't worry, I won't hurt you."

"Even a thousand towers wouldn't."

"In fact, this meeting was to express Qianta's apology to the two of you."

She gestured for Elvia and Lin Gui to sit down.

Elvia squinted, glancing at Lin Gui out of the corner of her eye.

But they found that Lin Gui's gaze was fixed on the woman, without making any move.

His gaze was so blatant that it made the woman somewhat suspicious.

Elvia gave Lin Gui a light elbow strike.

Lin Gui snapped out of his daze, closed his eyes briefly, then opened them and said with a smile.

"I apologize, I was captivated by your beauty."

The woman responded with a slight smile, not pressing the matter further.

Elvia almost lost her composure because of those words.

Lin Gui sat down at the guest table.

The woman clapped her hands, and a handsome man in a dark gray uniform appeared.

He came over carrying a tray and placed three drinks on the table.

The glass contained a pale golden liquid with a layer of fine foam floating on the surface.

It emits a faint herbal aroma.

The woman explained.

"This is a specialty drink of Thousand Pagodas, Thousand Leaf Tea, which has a nourishing effect on a mage's magic circulation. Captain, you might want to try it."

Lin Gui nodded in agreement, picked up his cup, and took a sip.

After putting it down, his expression was natural, as if he was savoring some unfamiliar flavor.

The ensuing conversation was unexpectedly amicable.

The woman conveyed the Thousand Towers' goodwill to Lin Gui and Elvia.

Qianta had no intention of antagonizing an immortal blazing sun or a speaker with ten votes.

He also apologized to Lin Gui, the branch president of the Copper Gate City Magic Guild, for his rude behavior.

This indicates that Cassius has received the punishment he deserves.

At the same time, she hoped that Lin Gui and Elvia would accept Qianta's apology gift.

Three things.

A land deed, a box, and a long sword.

The title deed is for this house.

Located in the heart of the commercial district, it is worth over 50 million gold coins and has an excellent location.

The longsword is named "Chasing the Sun," and its scabbard is silver-white with fine runes engraved on its surface.

The woman explained that the sword was drawn as if the sun were rising.

It was forged by the Lord of the Light Tower and the Dwarven Swordsmith, taking ten years to complete.

The sword is covered with the highest level of light-elemental runes.

It can maximize the knight's blade wind and add the sharpness of light magic.

This semi-divine artifact was obtained by the council from the Light Tower Master with great difficulty, and it is just right for Speaker Roland.

Elvia's eyelid twitched.

A semi-divine artifact as an apology gift?

Both she and Lin Gui thought the other party would give them a hard time, but this was the scene they encountered.

Should we bow our heads and apologize to them? And offer them a gift as an apology?

The woman introduced the last item.

After opening the box, I looked at the contents.

Lin Gui and Elvia were both taken aback.

A wooden box about the size of a palm.

The dark red wood was covered with fine runes, and a faint glow flowed between the runes.

The corners of the box are inlaid with gold metal, which gleams softly under the light.

This is the thing that fat guy lost to them at the gambling den in Deadwood Town.

The same.

The woman said with a smile.

"This is the last gift that Qianta gives to you."

"Through it, you can exchange anything at any shop or auction in any of the Thousand Towers, including the grand prize."

She put down the box, looked at Lin Gui, and spoke gently.

"This is Qianta's sincerity."

"How is it, Captain of the Undying Sun?"

"Can you accept the apology from Qianta?"

Lin Gui looked at the wooden box without saying a word.

The woman seemed to have misunderstood and added another sentence.

"Don't worry, this wasn't obtained by exchanging half-demon warriors."

"After the Great Sage returned, all measures against half-demons were cancelled."

"This box is the last one."

"He also instructed that the half-demons being escorted by the Star Transport Team be handed over to you."

"The Star Transport Team is still on its way. Once they arrive, I will send someone to bring that poor little guy here."

The woman looked at the silent Lin Gui and said with a smile.

"We are not the enemy, Captain of the 7 Coins Post Office Transport Team."

"You don't want to be enemies with Thousand Towers either, right?"
