My Magic Age

Chapter 366 166. The Knights of El City

The few of us standing on a raised rock halfway up the Antias Mountains can see the outline of the city of Ayr from a distance. This city is not a majestic city, but for hundreds of years, it has become It has withstood countless barbarian troops from the north approaching the city, and it still stands close to the mountain after many winds and rains. It was already evening, and the clouds in the sky were gathering. Those white clouds were covered with a layer of golden clouds. At this time, the clouds on the top of the mountain where the Magic Academy was located dispersed, and a golden radiance shone down like a beam of light. We could clearly see He saw the political hall in the center of the city, which represented the highest power center in El City, and the Magic Academy hidden in the dense woods. Those magnificent buildings showed the city's heritage.

The huge building complex not far away is where the temple is located. No one expected that a secret base full of evil and dark atmosphere of hell would be built majestically next to the temple. If any priest could do it in the black pine forest, If you walk around, you can probably find the clues left by the hell hound in the forest. It wasn't until the traces of the hell hound appeared in the city of El that the panicked people discovered it. It turned out that the cause of the disaster had been hidden under the aura of the temple. What a huge irony.

Looking at the sea-like black pine forest below me, the sound of crows came from below, the wind blew by, and the sound of rustling leaves in the forest rose and fell like the ocean tide. Cindy looked at the scene in front of her with a flushed face, probably thinking of her home in Mas Town. Annie picked up Su from her back and let her lie comfortably on my back. Then she looked at me seriously and said to me: "Take her home. I know I really underestimated you before. As a For a magic apprentice, you are outstanding, and I know you are capable of protecting Su!"

"Sister!" Su's worry was written on her face. Facing Anne's fair face, she didn't say anything more. Since she knew she couldn't change Anne's decision, speaking out would only make her bear a heavier burden. In that case, it would be better not to say it than to say it.

"Have you decided to go?" I was carrying Su, her breasts that had just begun to develop were pressed against my back, and my heart was beating like a drum. Only I knew what Su was feeling now. How nervous I was, Su put her pointed chin on my shoulders, put a pair of slender hands around my neck, and looked pitifully at Annie jumping off the rock.

"Sister, be careful!" Su finally said in a low voice when Annie left. The voice was so low that I could hear it vaguely even though I was carrying her.

Annie was wearing that salamander skin armor, and when she was running in the forest, she was like a dancing flame.

Thick smoke was rising from the other side of the villa, and the mountain road leading to the manor was filled with cavalry from the guard regiment. Following the intermittent mountain road in the forest, looking forward, I discovered that there were a large number of people piled up at a pass. The gravel, probably the gravel that blocked the road, made it difficult for the men from the guard camp to ride on it. The soldiers were crowded on the mountain road, and the horses in bright armor snorted irritably on the mountain road. The little beasts in the forest beside the road began to move with their families, and the boring knights began to stab the knights with their spears. Get up, the shield stands aside, and they gather together in twos and threes to chat and spank.

The knights who stopped at the front had given up their spears and heavy shields, and just lined up with their swords to climb over the chaotic rocks.

I carried Su on my back and carefully walked down the rock. I felt that I should be closer to the knights on the mountain road. That was the safest place in Mount Antias at present. I put on the gray magic apprentice robe and brought it with me. The magic badge issued by the magic academy, slowly tidied up the messy hair, and tried to make his appearance look cleaner. Only in this way can the knights look at him. My identity, my identity as a magician apprentice may be nothing in the eyes of others, but as long as I don't leave the upper class circle of El City, some people will always give me some face, maybe it's not because of me, But they will see those people standing behind me, such as Teacher Heidi, Scholar Yerkes, Dean Godfrey, these nobles who can be called celebrities in Ayr City.

I held Cindy's little white hand with one hand and asked her to behave as well as possible. Maybe this would make people automatically think of her as the personal maid of a certain noble prince, or the maid of a certain noble lady. I used my hand Holding Su I walked down the mountain along the gentle slope of the rock with my half-cut leg. Su put her lips next to my ear and whispered to me: "Jia, I don't want to go back to the city. I want to stay and wait for my sister." , I can’t feel at ease even if I go back.”

I said: "Okay!"

We, three twelve or thirteen-year-old children, seemed a little strange walking in the mountains and forests. At this time, Antia Mountain was blocked by a large number of knights from the guard camp. The slightest movement would attract patrols one after another. Looking deeper into the forest, some demon hunters have already withdrawn from here in advance. It seems that the entire top management of El City and the nobles hiding behind are very concerned about this operation.

As for why such a huge effort was made, I think it was probably because those hellhounds had caused panic in the entire city of El, and the nobles of El City took such a big move in order to stabilize the situation.

From a distance, he saw little Evan standing next to his ancient Bolai horse, using a scraper to scrape the horse's sweat. During such a short rest, he took the trouble to put on the heavy robes on the ancient Bolai horse. He took off the piece of armor so that his beloved mount could rest for a while, and he secretly took it from his arms. He took out a handful of black beans and quickly smeared them into the horse's mouth. The Gubolai horse was also very smart. He took a mouthful of beans and chewed them slowly. As soon as someone glanced at him, he immediately stopped his mouth and shook his big head as if nothing had happened. My head will continue chewing as if nothing has happened until those eyes wander away.

I walked out of the forest with Cindy, and the first person I approached was little Evan. Carrying Su on my back, I slowly crawled out of the meadow. Before those idle and bored knights had time to shout, Before the three of us stayed, he took the lead and sweetly shouted to Little Evan: "Brother Little Evan!"

This shout made the knights who felt a little bored sigh and return to their own circle, no longer interested in the three of us.

When those companions who were familiar with little Evan saw me coming, they leaned close to little Evan and asked him with a smile: "Oh, Evan, do you know that student from the Magic Academy?"

"He is my neighbor. His name is Jijia. He is a magic apprentice at the Magic Academy. His father Liant is a swordsmanship instructor at Stans Academy. I heard that he also has very good swordsmanship with a Western rapier. However, in comparison, magic It's more suitable for him!" Little Evan introduced me in detail. I never thought that this young boy who usually doesn't talk much would have such a delicate mind and know a lot about me.

"Are you chasing my sister again? Why are you so familiar with their family?" The companions on the side asked with a smile, but there is no doubt that these words of little Evan completely dispelled the last doubts of these knights. There are only thirty apprentices in the entire city of El, and no one You would think that a new magic apprentice would have any connection with that manor. Magic apprentices naturally need to hide under the powerful wings of the magic teachers in the magic academy. No one dares to rashly provoke magic apprentices and those magicians with eccentric personalities. The teachers are simply unreasonable.

Little Evan scratched his head and said, "At that time, I really wanted to learn the Western rapier! I thought at that time, it would be great to enter Stans Academy!"

"Our Evan is a top student in the swordsman class of the Zhan Zhan Academy. I didn't expect him to be so humble when he was young!" A young man next to him put his arm around Evan's shoulders and said. Little Evan blushed. He was not as shameless as his companions and broke away. Open his arm,

Little Evan is an honest child. He has a good temper and is very polite to others. When he saw me carrying Su, he quickly ran over and held my hand. He asked me with concern: "Jijia, why are you carrying Su?" Why did Su come here?"

Obviously, the news about Su becoming a priest's apprentice has not officially spread in the streets, and few people know about Su going to the temple to become a priest's apprentice.

In this way, little Evan felt that I was the one who rashly took Su out to play. I smiled and said to little Evan: "It's Su who is curious about this place and wants to come here to have a look. Unexpectedly, he got into trouble." We got lost when we entered the forest, but luckily we met Brother Evan! Otherwise we would still be wandering around in the forest!"

"This is not very safe. Don't run around. I have a mission and I can't leave now. I will send you back to the city. You follow me first. Stay aside and don't cause trouble. Don't run around. I will send you two kids off after the mission is over. Guys go home!" Little Evan pressed my hair and said with a smile.

What Su and I were waiting for was for Little El to say these words, so that we could legitimately stay. Su and I looked at each other with pride and joy in our eyes.

"The relationship between you two is still so good!" When little Evan walked, the scales on his armor made a harsh sound, like the sound of grinding teeth.

We followed little Evan back to where he was. He spread a blanket on the roadside, let Su and I sit on it and rested, and brought out milk tea to entertain us. The cavalry's standard equipment includes milk tea, an easy-to-carry drink, which is probably made by mixing milk powder and ground tea leaves. However, the only trouble is that you need to pick up some branches to boil a pot of water. Milk tea has many benefits. It can help digest meat, quench thirst, satisfy hunger when necessary, and is easy to carry.

Naturally, I won't let little Evan entertain me in vain. I still have a few fire-gathering scrolls in my magic waist bag. This kind of quick and convenient scroll is very suitable for opening the scroll when the horse team stops for a short rest, and then Set up a simple shelf, boil a pot of water and make a bowl of fragrant milk tea. My series of skillful movements almost dumbfounded little Evan. He never thought that someone could have the luxury of using a magic scroll as firewood to boil water.

"This...is this...a magic scroll?" He approached me and asked me.

I replied: "Ha! This is the most basic scroll!"

"You usually bring something to boil water?" Evan was a little envious of me. It seems that the life of a magic apprentice is not bad.

I pressed the four corners of the scroll with pebbles to prevent the scroll from rolling up on its own. I watched the red flames burn and the magic pattern array on the parchment move freely. I said to him: "It's not worth a lot of money." , this kind of small scroll is made of some scraps of magic parchment, and the ink is the cheapest magic ink, and the most important thing is - I can draw!"

I took out all the remaining scrolls and gave them to little Evan.

The honest little Evan was naturally a little stunned. It seemed that he had received a gift-like bribe for the first time in his life. He didn't know what to do for a moment. However, his companion helped him to put away the scrolls skillfully and calmly, and took out a scroll from it and put it in his arms. He came to my side very attentively and said to me: "I don't know how to use this thing. How do I use it?"

I looked up at him. He was very burly, with sharp edges on his face, thick eyebrows, big eyes and a high nose bridge. When he smiled, his eyes narrowed together, and there were many crow's feet at the corners of his eyes. He was wearing a steel armor and couldn't squat at all. He could only bend down and look at the pot curiously. The milk tea inside had already produced a thick layer of white foam, and the strong fragrance had already drifted out. I pointed to the kettle on his waist. He smiled and took it off and handed it to me. I poured him a cup of milk tea from the pot...

This Evan brother's companion was very tactful and untied his milk tea bag, poured a bag of milk tea into the pot, and poured some clean water into it again. Let the pot continue to boil milk tea.

I took the scroll in his hand and unfolded it casually in the wind. A strong flame rushed out, which scared him. I quickly rolled up the scroll again, and the flame disappeared at this time. Then I looked at him and asked: "How is it, isn't it very simple?"

"It's really very simple. The life of magicians is really wonderful. With this thing, marching in the wild doesn't seem so scary!" Evan brother's companion opened and closed the scroll in his hand more than a dozen times, and praised in amazement. "How come I didn't know there were such good things in the magic shop before? How much does it cost?"

"Twenty silver coins, maybe it will be cheaper in the future!" I said with a smile.

Evan, who was standing by, looked at the bundle of magic scrolls in his hand and said in surprise: "So expensive!"

Evan's companion didn't care about Evan's reaction at all, but just muttered to us: "He is a blockhead! If there is anything that can help, just say it. We can't do it. I would rather risk my old face to ask our captain to help you. Of course, I know you won't ask us too much!"

"Of course, I just hope that when you brothers are besieging the manor later, you can take care of my sister in private. You don't need to let her out, as long as she is not injured. I will ask the teachers in the academy to solve the rest of the problems. As long as people are not injured and not wronged, it's fine!" I poured out some milk tea and handed it to Su who was sitting on the blanket, then squinted at Evan's companion.

"Your sister?" Evan's companion asked in confusion.

"Well, she and her classmates went to the manor to watch the fun and left us here, but I think they might suffer a loss. Since we met acquaintances in the guard camp, saying hello might have unexpected results!" I said to him.

A few of us gathered together to chat, and then the knights around us smelled the fragrance of milk tea. In fact, I only added a little salt and a little honey to it. I didn't expect the fragrance to spread directly, so that the knights who stopped on this road smelled a faint fragrance, and then these knights who were bored after a long wait gathered along the fragrance...

Then someone began to praise me for making milk tea, and Su and I quickly integrated into the Knights. At least they knew that there were two interesting children who made sweet milk tea and spoke very nicely and politely. The poor girl with a broken leg was still waiting for her sister. If it weren't for the pressure of life, who would risk rushing into the manor to fight for their lives! It is said that there are groups of hellhounds locked up there...

After a while, my pot started to bubble with white foam again. Unfortunately, at the same time, the horn sounded, and the knights immediately took up their teacups. Even if they didn't finish the milk tea, they would pour it into their mouths and force themselves to drink it, and then get ready to go. As for the milk tea, it was still too hot, and those who couldn't drink it would decisively pour it away. It seems that the military discipline of the Knights is not as bad as imagined!

I was secretly thinking in my heart.
