Lord of the Star Ocean

Chapter 29: The Astromancer

Chen Kai didn't brag.

Chai, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, tea, pots and pans, clothes and hats, but all the necessary items for home life can be bought in his shop, which saved Nie Feng a lot of trouble, and gave him a considerable discount.

After turning around for more than an hour, the hired carriage behind Nie Feng was already full of things.

"Senior Brother Nie, the weapon shop run by my family is right in front of you."

Chen Kai pointed to a shop in front of which hung a banner with the four characters "Chen's Martial Arts Shop", and said proudly: "As long as it is not a star energy weapon, you can make it."

Father Chen Kai's business is very big. There are several shops, including grocery stores, rice stores, clothing stores, and weapons stores, all of which are located in the bustling streets of Nanyuan City.

The reason Nie Feng asked Chen Kai for help was to find a reliable craftsman to make some gadgets for him.

Of course, Chen Kai recommended his own shop.

Nie Feng smiled and said, "I'm really bothering Senior Brother Chen today."

He didn't have any friendship with Chen Kai in his previous life, so he wasn't familiar with him. Now he found that this senior brother has a good temper and is easy to get along with. He doesn't have the arrogance and reserve of a rich kid.

Chen Kai said nonchalantly: "What's the trouble? I'm also soliciting business for my family. Although I said I gave you a discount, it's still profitable."

While joking, the two came to the door of Chen's Martial Arts Shop.

There happened to be a few guests coming out.

Nie Feng stopped involuntarily.

There were three people on the other side, and the one walking in front was a white-haired old man. He was wearing a gray kudzu suit and was holding a long wooden stick in his hand. Although his old face was like dried orange peel, his eyes were bright and energetic, shining with wisdom.

On the right back side of the old man in Ge Yi, there is a young girl in a green skirt, with bright eyes, white teeth and brows like a picture, she is a rare and stunning beauty, but she is a bit heroic with a long bow on her back and a dagger hanging from her waist.

And the one who walked with the girl in the green skirt was a big man like an iron tower. He was twice as tall as the girl, with a strong back and a waist. He had dark skin and a shaved head. There were three dark blue lines on his forehead.

Nie Feng's heart suddenly contracted, and a look of fear flashed in his eyes.

His intuition told him that the combination of the three old men, the girl, and the big man was by no means ordinary people, especially the wide and long saber on the back of the big man, which made him faintly feel palpitations when it was not out of its sheath.

The big man noticed Nie Feng's gaze, and suddenly turned his head and smiled at him, showing a mouthful of white teeth, as if he was a ferocious beast that wanted to devour people!

Nie Feng stood stiffly on the spot, fine sweat dripped from his forehead.

Even at a distance of several steps, the other party still brought him enormous invisible pressure.

However, the three of them kept walking, and they passed Nie Feng in the blink of an eye.

The girl in the green skirt even glanced sideways at Nie Feng.

It wasn't until the figures of the three disappeared into the bustling crowd that Nie Feng let out a long breath of relief.

Chen Kai also breathed a sigh of relief. He lowered his voice and said to Nie Feng, "It's the astrologer, two followers."

Astromancers are powerful existences in this world who, in addition to star warriors, also master the method of using star energy. They can practice spiritual power through communication with stars, and cast all kinds of incredible spells. Top-level astromancers even have the power to move mountains and fill seas.

It's just that compared with star warriors, astrologers have higher requirements for talent, so the number of astrologers is much rarer.

The grades of astrologers are divided into one to nine stars. In the Xianluo Empire, the Moluo Empire, and the Free Star State, the status of the astrologers is equivalent to that of nobles. The lowest-ranked one-star astrologer has a higher status than the black iron warrior.

Any army and any city in the empire has an astrologer sitting there, and Nanyuan City is no exception. The white tower standing next to the city lord's mansion is said to be the star tower where the astrologer lives.

It is rumored that there is a huge astrology array arranged underground in Nanyuan City, which is controlled by the astrologers in the star tower. It seems that without the existence of this astrology array, Nanyuan City could not have developed safely for decades.

Nie Feng's understanding of astrologists is very limited, it's all from chatting with others in the past. Many bizarre stories may not be true, but there is no doubt that astrologists are powerful.

The two followers beside the astrologer just now are not what Nie Feng can contend with now.

Nie Feng even felt that the big man with the sword on his back could easily crush him to death without using a weapon!

This feeling is absolutely uncomfortable, and it made Nie Feng understand that he is still extremely weak in this world.

But he will never be discouraged because of this, on the contrary, he has strengthened his determination to pursue a higher level of martial arts.

In this way, life will be more exciting!

Nie Feng clenched his fists secretly, and threw away all the depression, aggrieved, anger, and unwillingness in his heart, leaving behind the will and confidence that will never give up.

"Let's go in."

Chen Kai who was with Nie Feng felt a little weird, as if Nie Feng beside him had changed a lot in an instant, but he couldn't tell what kind of change it was.

Nie Feng was still that Nie Feng.

"Master, why are you here?"

The two of them had just walked into Chen's martial arts shop, when the chubby shopkeeper immediately ran over, nodding and bowing to Chen Kai in a courteous manner: "I'll ask someone to make tea for you."

"Do not bother!"

Chen Kai waved his hands carelessly, and said, "This is my brother, he needs to make a few things, is Master Wang free now?"

"Available, available..."

The shopkeeper hurriedly said: "Young Master, you are here. If he is not free, he has to be free. I will call him out."

Chen Kai said to Nie Feng: "Let's sit down first, Master Wang is the best blacksmith in our shop."

The two sat down in the store, and the waiter brought tea.

After less than half a cup of tea, the shopkeeper walked over with an honest-looking middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man asked in a deep voice, "Master, what can I do?"

Chen Kai pointed to Nie Feng and said, "I'm fine, my brother wants to get something."

The opponent's eyes fell on Nie Feng.

Nie Feng asked the shopkeeper to bring him paper, ink, brush and inkstone, put it on the tea table and started to draw on the spot.

The pen, ink and stationery in this world are basically not much different from the earth. Nie Feng learned calligraphy and Chinese painting when he was a student, so he easily sketched out what he needed, and marked the corresponding requirements next to it.

While he was painting and calligraphy, Master Wang watched carefully from the side, showing a thoughtful look.
