“Come on, Crete. Have something more.” Hawke stuffed another candy into Crete’s hand. “Look at the slippery packaging on it. This is the product from the sky. They brought it with them when they fell down. One less piece of it was eaten. Anyway, it was much better than the newly made candy they had in the factory.”

“You, don’t you eat it?” Crete came to the third camp to deliver a letter today. When he went out, he was stopped by Hawke who was working and stuffed two candies.

“Hehe, I’m an adult, I like this more.” Hawke took out a cigarette from his pocket, put it under his nose and smelled it, and then reluctantly stuffed it back into his pocket. “Besides, I’m a warehouse manager, and I still have a lot of intimate things assigned to the mine.”

“Thank you.” Crete looked grateful with candy in his mouth, “Your job is so good, everyone must be envious, right?”
“I’m just a messenger, no matter how good you are, can you live in a castle?”

“But I’m just a messenger these days.” Crete was a little depressed.

“Has no one taught you magic yet?” Hawke said a little angry, “I want me to tell you, you don’t owe Master Xiao Chen. He is unfair to you. He should at least let other magicians, even magic apprentices, take you to learn something, right?”

Crete ate candy and shook his head, “I have never seen other magicians, except for Ms. Luo Ling and the Andrew master, but they all have their own things to do. They haven’t seen any of the apprentices.”

“No one?” Hawke observed him for a while and whispered, “How about I take you to relax today? I have met many friends in the camp. These people are interesting guys. They have dinner together today.”

Crete looked up at Hawke and said hesitantly, “Thank you, I think I’d better forget it. It’s getting late, I should go back to the castle.”

“Will they look at you?” Hawke asked.

“That won’t be. I live alone in a single room. Even if I don’t go to the evening, no one will care about me.”

“That’s not very good. Go and meet everyone with me, and then just live in the camp.” Hawke put his head in Crete’s ear and whispered, “There are a few people from the hunting camp who will come secretly and bring wild game. There are two people who come from the dock who will bring fish. You don’t eat that well in the city, right? It’s a rare opportunity.”
“How come you have so many people gathered together? Didn’t you say you can’t run around after night?” Crete asked worriedly.

“Hey, there are so many people in the camp, how many guards are there? Besides, we just eat some fresh and have fun. It’s nothing to be discovered.”

When the day really darkened, Hawke took Crete to the edge of the camp, where there were several large warehouses piled up with miscellaneous items. He’s goneGo outside an inconspicuous side door. Knocked rhythmically at the door.

After a while, the door opened a crack.

The person inside seemed to look at them for a while and said, “Newcomer?”

“Yes, don’t worry, everything is in line with the rules.” Hawke hugged Crete’s shoulder, “My little brother Crete.”

The person inside didn’t say anything, opened the door, turned around and walked in.

The house seemed to be pitch black, and there was no one. Crete glanced at Hawk hesitantly. The latter grinned and said, “Don’t worry, come with me.”

Crete followed Hawke into the house, and as he walked through the door, the room became bright, as if suddenly many lights were lit at the same time. In other words, it is more like suddenly entering a new world shining with lights.

At the same time, he found that the room was not empty, but on the contrary, there were many people sitting or standing, talking to each other and eating. Just as he stepped into the room, noisy sounds came to his face. If it weren’t for most of these people wearing coarse cloth clothes, he almost felt that this was a cocktail party for the nobles. However, just before entering the door, he didn’t hear a little sound.

When Crete came in, almost everyone noticed them, and many people stopped talking and turned to look at him. These people are old and young, but Crete found that the people in the room, whether they stand or sit or the content of their conversation, were not like civilians. There were several bodies that were too strong, reminding him of knights and mercenaries, and some were mysterious and mysterious like legendary spell casters. This made him a little nervous, so he stood at the door at a loss.

Seeing Crete in a daze, Hawke said proudly: “There are some capable people among us! I heard that this is a magic circle that makes people outside the house feel that the house is empty and they are all made. But it has nothing to do with us. Come with me and we go find some food.”

The onlookers gradually dissipated, and Hawke pulled Crete to a table. There was no exquisite food on the table, only a few pottery plates and bowls filled with barbecued game, fish and some common fruits. Hawke grabbed a piece of rabbit meat and handed it to Crete and said, “Try it.”

The meat fragrance mixed with burnt flavor, and added some unknown plants and trees, the taste was very attractive. Crete took a bite and smiled satisfied.

“Is it worth it?” Hawke said while picking up a rabbit leg.

“However, there is a tavern in the camp, which is even more so than here
