My Magic Age
Chapter 247 47. Galloping Horse River in the Rain
Twenty kilometers north of the city of El, there is a mountain called Antia. On this steep peak that rises straight from the plain, it is said that the Statue of Liberty once realized the true meaning of divinity and ascended to heaven. Later, her believers built a large temple on this mountain. This is a place blessed by the goddess. Miracles appear almost every few years. There are many believers of the Statue of Liberty in the province of Schloit. The status of this temple is also very transcendent. Many nobles go to the temple from time to time to pray for the blessing of the goddess.
This temple recruits some qualified girls from all over the province of Schloit to be priests almost every year, and some children from poor families go to the temple to become monks. This temple can train nearly a hundred priests for the Green Empire every year. It has made outstanding contributions in the past ten years. Speaking of the profession of priest, it is a clergyman who has obtained some of the sacred power of the goddess. They walk on earth on behalf of the Statue of Liberty.
From afar, I could see the majestic peak of Mount Antia rising into the clouds. The entire temple was built on the hillside. It is said that there is also an altar on the top of Mount Antia. That is where the chief priest of the temple communicates and prays with the Statue of Liberty. I have always wanted to see what the temple, which is three times larger than the Marquis's Palace of the Lord of El City, looks like. Now standing at its foot, it reminds me of the Night Wolf Cliff Mountain on the Pai Plateau.
I learned some tracking techniques from Kuz in the wilderness, and I can identify the direction of the target by various traces along the way.
Standing on the slope, the steel wheel hub forged from fine steel rolled on the rammed loess road, pressing out a half-inch deep rut. The wind magic array on the caravan, even if it eventually reduced a large part of the weight of the caravan, the two caravans are still heavy. The ruts continue to extend northward at this fork in the road. There are still several burnt lion claw marks on the road, which must be left by those strange beasts with some Suanni blood.
I guess Ying Li's black carriage finally bypassed the Antia Mountain and continued to drive north. I was a little surprised. What on earth did Ying Li have to run so far away? After all, there was still class tomorrow morning. The carriage driver waiting on the side looked up at the sky, looked at the road he came from with some worry, and ran over carefully to remind me: "Dear magician, if you are not prepared to spend the night outside the city, then you need to at least set off to return to El City immediately, otherwise we will not be able to rush back when the city gate is closed!"
I didn't expect Ying Li to run so far at once. I originally thought she was going to the rose garden to relax, but if she went north all the way, she would reach the south bank of the Pegasus River! What could she do there?
I hesitated a little, whether to continue looking for her. In fact, if I wasn't a little paranoid, I could return the earrings to her when I went to school tomorrow morning. Seeing her leave sadly from the library, I felt that I owed her a word, so I chased her out of the city so stubbornly.
In fact, the fare I paid for the coachman to take me here was completely overspent. For the coachman, this was already very rare. I guess this was partly because of my identity as a magician. He couldn't bear to drive me off the car. He simply couldn't do anything in the city, so he took me a little longer. He was supposed to take me to the rose garden, but now we are at the foot of Mount Antia. I turned around and smiled at the coachman, saying, "Thank you very much for taking me here. In this case, let's turn back immediately!"
As soon as I finished speaking, the afternoon sun shone into the grass by the roadside, and a yellow-orange magic badge lay on the dead leaves. I put the badge in my hand. On the back of the badge was the abbreviation of Ying Li's name, "DGLSYL". I have seen this badge before. I have a bad feeling that Ying Li might have had an accident. She couldn't have lost her magic badge.
When the driver heard that I decided to return to the city, he turned the carriage around happily. When he saw my serious expression, he was nervous and didn't dare to ask me when I would get on the carriage. Seeing his sad face, I paid him the fare and asked him to go to my house to tell Ryant and Fanny after returning to the city, saying that I had something to do at night and would not stay at home, and asked them not to worry.
Watching the carriage galloping towards the city of El with dust all the way, I realized how anxious the driver was. I sorted out the items I carried with me and found that except for a close-fitting wolf tooth dagger, I had almost no food and water. The magic waist bag was empty with a few magic herbs and four stone drums.
I took the moonstone drum out of the magic waist bag and hung it around my waist. Then I sat quietly on the grass beside the road, calmed myself down, and gathered the wind element from my body to my palm. The power of the wind element slowly formed a light ball the size of a table tennis ball in my palm. After awakening the magic pool, every time I did this, the wind element magic power in the magic pool would take the opportunity to pass through the magic barrier and merge into the magic element ball in my hand. This is not a magic ball composed of pure magic power in the body nodes, and there is no way to activate the moonstone drum. The orc totem only absorbs pure natural elemental power.
But I made a very bold attempt this time. That is, when I used the magic power in my body, I forced the barrier of the magic pool to rotate in the opposite direction to the magic vortex. Fortunately, my magic perception is strong enough, and those perceptions can extend to every part of my body. The barrier of the entire magic vortex is like a tough ball. I urged the magic power outside the barrier to push the barrier of the magic vortex to start rotating slowly.
It was a very mysterious feeling. The whole vortex was like a new universe in my body, and the boundary of the whole universe was the magic barrier in my body. I let this magic boundary rotate continuously until its speed was as fast as the speed of the magic vortex, but it was in the opposite direction, and the pulling force between them gradually maintained balance.
At this time, I dared to inject the wind element ball in my palm into the moonlight stone drum. The whole moonlight stone drum was brightly lit, and a light ball of wind element immediately formed a light and agile force to focus on my legs. This was the buff magic effect "Wind Sprint" brought by the moonlight stone drum.
I felt so relaxed that I could almost fly. Some things are just afraid of being forced. I spent nearly two weeks looking up information in the library. I asked some magic teachers in a roundabout way many times, but I couldn't get any useful knowledge from them. I didn't expect that at the foot of Antia Mountain, I actually thought of such a method, which was actually effective. By making the barrier of the magic pool rotate in the opposite direction to the magic vortex in the magic pool, the magic power of the magic pool can be blocked from leaking out, making the entire magic pool a completely closed magic space.
I have found a solution to the problem of casting universal magic, which makes me feel much more relaxed, as if I have regained some strength in my body. I even want to stand here and shout a few times to vent the joy in my heart.
This is the northern suburb of El City. Almost every year I pass by here and walk to the south bank of the Running Horse River and go up along the river.
This is my home, the place I am most familiar with...
The wind takes me to run on the field, and the grass I wade through forms a straight grass line. A roe deer runs side by side with me...
The wind takes me to shuttle between the branches in the forest, and I can easily catch up with the monkey that is frightened and running away on the treetops in front of me. I laughed at them strangely. The monkeys hid in the treetops and angrily threw some dry branches and wild fruits at me, but I could only leave those things behind...
I knew that if the black caravan continued to go north, it would have to bypass the Antia Mountains. I also knew a shortcut that would allow me to catch up with the caravan. I wanted to see who could kidnap the magic apprentices in the War College at the gate of the academy and leave the city of El smoothly. Once this matter spread, it would be recorded on the shame board of the War College. When this story is narrated, my name may appear. Thinking of this, I wanted to fly up and catch up with the caravan in front.
... Beautiful dividing line...
The Benma River meanders from west to east for nearly a thousand kilometers before merging into the White Elephant River and finally flowing into the Endless Sea. The terrain is gentler along the route through El City, and the water flow is no longer so turbulent, especially in the section of Antia Mountain, where the Benma River makes a big turn and the flow rate has dropped to the lowest point. The countless fine sands in the river slowly settle on this section of the river, forming a long and narrow white beach along the river, like a jade belt lying quietly on the emerald green map.
Countless dark clouds have gathered in the sky. A few minutes ago, it was still clear, but now the sky is like thick ink that is about to drip water. A damp and cool breeze blows in the distance. It seems that this rain cannot be avoided. However, what worries me most is that this heavy rain will wipe out all traces on the ground, and I will no longer be able to use the shallow tracking technique. I am very anxious at this moment.
After climbing over a grass slope of nearly 100 meters in front of me, what came into view was a wide river surface. The Benma River flowed slowly here, and a large amount of river water gathered here, forming a river surface more than two kilometers wide. A black-covered carriage was parked on the white beach by the river. Four beasts with smoke coming out of their hooves like lions were roaring at the sky. This kind of beast born with fire attributes hated rainy days very much.
At this moment, my heart, which was hanging in the air, fell back to the ground. The two carriages were parked on the river beach not far away. I looked for Ying Li's traces and found a row of messy footprints on the white beach that continued to the Benma River.
This grass slope was less than one kilometer away from the river beach, and the terrain was slightly higher, so I could clearly see everything on the river beach and the entire wide river surface. I ran quickly downstream along the grass slope, thinking that maybe there was a boat carrying them downstream. The more I thought about it, the more anxious I felt.
After a long cross-country run, my blood was almost boiling, my body was steaming with heat, my breath was like the worn-out bellows in a blacksmith's furnace, I was panting violently, wishing I could suck all the air into my lungs.
Finally, after running more than 200 meters, I saw a black spot on the river surface from a distance. That black spot was clearly a person who fell into the river! She seemed to be struggling hard in the river, but she was always drifting downstream with the slowly flowing river.
Save people! After this thought flashed through my mind, I rushed from the grass slope to the beach, dragging my magic robe down while running, throwing it on the beach, and then the sheepskin soft armor and tight leather trousers were also left on the shore. After rushing forward for seven or eight meters, I jumped high on the beach, dived into the river with a fish jump, and swam hard towards the figure that was rising and falling at that time.
I have always been a good swimmer. When I was very young, I dared to swim in the newly thawed river with floating ice on the surface. The Benma River is known for its turbulent water, but the water in this section is quite gentle. I used my hands to split the water in front of me, and my feet took turns to paddle the water surface, swimming straight towards the black spot.
At this time, bean-sized raindrops had already hit me from the sky, and the sky and water were connected in an instant. There was water everywhere in the sky and on the ground. I couldn't see too far. The waves on the river blocked my sight. I couldn't see the black spot on the river. I slapped the water with my hands in frustration. My body jumped out of the water like a carp and fell back into the river in an instant.
The moment I took off, in the pouring rain, I seemed to see the black spot floating not far away.
At this time, I remembered that I knew another kind of magic, "walking on water". As I chanted the spell, the light blue halo surrounded my body. I pressed my hands on the water and stood up directly from the river with layers of waves. At this time, I was only wearing a pair of checkered boxer shorts standing in the rain, letting the cold bean-sized raindrops hit my body. I wiped the rain off my face with my hands and looked for that figure on the river.
Fifty meters away, several figures were still floating in the water, and I ran over quickly.
At this time, the rain was heavy, and the heavy rain hit the river surface, creating a thick layer of mist. In addition, I ran over from the water behind them, and when I got close to them, I didn't have time to think too much. While chanting a skilled spell, I squatted down, hugged the round shoulders of the girl floating on the water with both hands, and dragged her out of the river. She screamed and struggled, and floated to the surface.
At this time, I had finished casting the spell, and a blue light ball wrapped her whole body. After she fell on the river again, it was like falling on the beach, and she didn't sink anymore. That beautiful face was the girl named Bei Ji'er among Ying Li's four best friends. She stared at me with wide eyes and slightly angry.
She struggled out of my hands, with her long wet green algae hair, and looked at me in surprise, standing in the rain, and shouted: "Ji Jia, why is it you, what are you doing?"
I was at a loss for words for a moment. Wasn't I rescuing a drowning girl? Why was she questioning me like this?
"Didn't you fall into the river and couldn't swim ashore?" I was standing in the heavy rain on the river, and suddenly several figures suddenly emerged in the river beside her. The figures of Ying Li, Lagertis, and Helena kept appearing in the river. They looked at me in surprise, seeing Becky sitting on the river, embarrassed and annoyed.
The expressions on their faces were rich and colorful, and the girls looked at Ying Li floating in the river. At this time, Ying Li also tried to raise her head out of the water in surprise. She was wearing a swimsuit similar to Becky's, and looked at me in surprise. Her beautiful face looked particularly soft in the water. At this time, I couldn't see her beauty anymore. How could she be so ordinary.
"Can't you see we are swimming?" Becky muttered in dissatisfaction, glanced at Yingli, and quickly dived into the river. At this time, I realized that she was quite good at swimming.
The heavy rain was still pouring down. If you speak in the rain, the rain will inevitably pour into your mouth.
Yingli swam to my side, pulled me, and dragged me into the warm river. Instead of standing in the cold rain, it would be more comfortable to hide in the river. There was no anger in her eyes at this time. She smiled and approached me, and kept sharing water with her hands and asked: "Jia, why are you here too?"
I looked at her unhappily, and told her about the general situation in the rain. When I mentioned that I accidentally picked up an exquisite magic earring outside the north gate, Yingli touched her left ear in surprise. Sure enough, the earring on the small earlobe like a pearl had disappeared.
The girls around Yingli swam to the distant river to play, and I realized that their water skills were much better than I thought.
We swam side by side in the river towards the shore. Ying Li asked shyly and proudly, "Did you come here to give me the earrings? Then you found out that I might have been kidnapped, so you sent the driver back to the city to report the news, and you ran all the way here?"
"Yes!" I answered honestly.
Before I could say anything, she whispered in my ear, "Thank you! I feel much better. Even if you dated another girl at the dance, I forgive you for this matter!
Some book friends gave me tickets to urge me to write more chapters, but I couldn't do it. This is my limit. Recently, the factory work is more and more heavy. I haven't been able to write 6,000 words a day for a long time. That's all I have to say. Thank you for your support. You didn't give up on me when I was writing so poorly! Thank you
