My Magic Age

Behind the Royal Academy of Magic is a large, very quiet lake. A few hundred meters away from the lake, there is a round artificial island in the middle of the lake. The entire island has been transformed into an ecological park. In addition to the lush greenery inside, In addition to the lush tropical plants, even part of the lake around the island is enclosed in an energy shield. It is said that the entire island is a large-scale magic circle that gathers water elements. Every day, dedicated maintenance personnel will take a canoe to the island to replace the magic crystals on the core center of the magic circle with new ones. About two magic crystals are consumed here every day.

Since there are not many water magicians in the Magic Academy, a certain dean of the Magic Academy thought that this ecological garden was a bit too luxurious as a meditation place for water magicians, so he planted some on the small island in the middle of the lake. Rare tropical plants, this small island in the middle of the lake was later discovered by a magic medicine man A magician at the level of apothecary scholar took a fancy to it and developed it into the academy's private magical herbal garden. This move by the apothecary scholar completely turned this ecological garden from a loss to a profit and became one of the few in the Royal Academy of Magic. Among the ecological gardens, it is the only self-sufficient magical herbal ecological garden.

Almost every year, the magic herbs produced here flow into the various laboratories of the Magic Academy and are directly sold domestically. Precisely because some precious magic herbs are grown here, it has become one of the few ecological parks where entry and exit need to be inspected and controlled. Over time, the water magicians who often meditate here chose another place that is a short distance from the dormitory and library. A relatively nearby ecological park Meditate. The ecological park is a comprehensive ecological park. There is also an arena built in the park. There is a small water gathering element array there, which provides sufficient water magic elements for various vegetation in the park. These Water magicians gradually became accustomed to meditating here.

Of course, in order to appease the small number of water magicians in the college, the college also chose to build a large pool fountain in front of the dormitory building near the small square in the dormitory campus, which is the best location in the dormitory campus. It is not only to beautify the entire dormitory park, but also to provide a more comfortable living environment for the water magicians. This can be regarded as a way for the college to make up for the encroachment on the water ecological park.

Another reason why few of the magicians who study at the Royal Academy of Magic are willing to come to the back lake of the academy is that the magicians who often hang out here will always be captured by the great scholar in the water ecology park. The scholar often goes in and out of the water system ecological park. He likes to look for students wandering along the way and enters the ecological park to work. This kind of work usually lasts for an afternoon.

For these magicians who only hold a large magic book and read books all day long, working in this kind of plant-based ecological garden is a very hard thing. Slowly, they will eat enough. The students who suffered the pain gradually stayed away from here, and wrote this article in a manual called "Daily Life Guide of Magic Academy". Therefore, now the entire Houhu Lake has become extremely deserted, and gradually it has become A quiet place.

In the magic academy, there are always all kinds of weird manuals and guides. This kind of privately printed booklets are actually very popular among students. They have enough space to survive here, just like Noah had a book before. "Teacher Qige's Guide to Daily Life".

There are many kinds of booklets like this, and I couldn't help but buy a life guide. Although the binding is very simple, the content written in it is very practical. This booklet divides the entire magic academy into five major areas: The teaching building area facing the square in front of the main entrance of the college, the dormitory living area located to the west of the library, four ecological parks on both sides of the square, the experimental building area on the west side of the college, and a large lake garden area behind the college.

I sat on the grass by the lake, hugging my legs with my hands, resting my head on my knees, and quietly looked at the blue sky in the distance. The thick white clouds like cotton were constantly changing shapes on the horizon. It was rare to see With such a pure afternoon, the Magic Research Institute has its regular monthly end-of-month meeting this afternoon, yeah Both Keith scholars and Qi Ge need to participate, and Yingli's classes today are fully scheduled. It is said that in a few days she will join an adventure group organized by the college to explore the Swamp of Sorrows, which will take about half a month. time, before that, she needs to make some full preparations, so she has become very busy recently.

…

We only see each other almost every two days. Sometimes I go to see her, sometimes we sit in the library for a while, sometimes we chat on a quiet bench in the small square of the park, or we ride a magic caravan to Weiyang together. Enjoy the wind on an unknown small pier by the lake. In short, Ying Li likes to hold me and observe this prosperous imperial capital from her perspective. We walk through the streets and alleys here and see the lives of some civilians living in the imperial capital. There is a city in those people. There are night watchmen, including coachmen, craftsmen, craftsmen, etc. They live crowded in a small civilian area. Generally, several families live together in a decent-looking wooden house. In the attic.

At that time, I laughed and said: This style of loft can only be afforded by high-income earners like Ryant and Fanny in El City, but here in the Imperial Capital, it is a house for common people. Life in the Imperial Capital is really luxurious!

Ying Li shook his head, frowned and said to me: If you walked into any wooden loft here and took a look, you wouldn't say that. Every one of these seemingly decent wooden lofts has There are probably at least four or five families living in each building. Each family has only one room, and several families need to share a living room and a bathroom. There is a room, a kitchen and a bathroom, and this house does not belong to any of them. It can only be rented from the owners of those houses-some big nobles. However, the common people here have to face such a life. , maybe they have long been used to it, maybe they have been bent by life and do not know how to fight.

I looked at the exquisite-looking wooden lofts in astonishment. There was an open lawn in front of each loft, and there would be some children in simple clothes running on the lawn, but I never thought about everything here. What seemed like a beautiful scenery turned out to be a layer of colorful foam. Maybe the next moment, it would be completely shattered by a finger. I suddenly wanted to take a closer look at this beautiful city full of flowers, and wanted to know what was hidden under the bright night.

Taking advantage of the weekend, we climbed an ancient ruins in the Mazzaro Pass, which is already a military-controlled area of ​​the imperial capital. Although it is an abandoned and dilapidated ruins, no one will live here, but because it exists in a special location, here You can have a panoramic view of the entire imperial capital, so ordinary tourists are usually not allowed to enter here. In addition, there is a quarry nearby. This is the only quarry in Mazzaro Mountain that has legal procedures.

However, there are still some small regrets in it. In the end, I was not able to kiss Ying Li's gentle lips in the quarry with the afterglow of the setting sun. At times like this, Helena would become Ying Li's substitute, and then we would hug in front of Ying Li. Although I enjoyed Helena's sweet kiss, for me, I was always very conflicted inside. There will be a fresh and exciting feeling and a sense of guilt washing through the depths of the soul like waves.

…

I still have the booklet "Guide to Daily Life at the Magic Academy" lying next to me. The pages were blown by the lake wind and made a crisp sound.

When I enter meditation, I can feel the water elements floating in the air like dust. They are like microorganisms wandering in the ocean, slowly drifting in a certain direction with the ocean currents, and in In my microscopic world, those water elements are attracted by a huge whirlpool, and follow the water Looking in the direction where the elements were drifting, I found that on the small island in the center of the lake a few hundred meters away, there was a huge vortex of water elements spinning constantly. Although it was at an extremely slow speed, that The huge vortex is like an eternal magnetic field, constantly absorbing the surrounding water elements from the small island in the center of the lake.

Looking at Sister Guoguo's increasingly clear translucent body, she stood silently in the lake, looking at the huge vortex of water elements not far away, as if she was meditating.

The tauren Luka stood in the knee-deep lake water, holding a huge oak barrel high in his hand, which was filled with clear lake water. He poured it head-on, and there was a hint of cold lake water that made his My breathing became very rapid at this moment, The tauren Luka took a few breaths in a row, then vigorously shook the water vapor standing in the thick hair on his body, and shook his body dry. Then he ran to the shore of the lake and sat on the grass next to me. He seemed a little bit excited.

He was only wearing a pair of leather shorts. In the cold spring, he stood shirtless in the lake and casually took a shower. Seeing the happy smile on the face of the minotaur Luca, I was also attracted by his behavior. Infected by an optimistic mood.

Probably he has been locked up in an underground cave these past few days and has been depressed for too long. When I opened the portal in a quiet place and found Luca out of the underground cave, he seemed to have found new toys one by one. The child was laughing and jumping happily on the spot, no However, he still held a huge oak barrel under his arm, but the wine had been drunk. He also held a claw hammer in his other hand and several iron nails in his mouth. He looked dazed. The tauren in the underground cave were repairing the empty wine barrel out of boredom.

I threw a towel to him and asked him to dry the water on his body. Luka smiled innocently, and his smile was as bright as the sun.

At this time, I raised my head and asked him: "Hey, have you really thought about it? Maybe after entering there, your life will change a lot. Maybe it will be difficult for you to be free in the future. You have to do things all day long. Some physical work may be more restrictive than in an underground cave.”

"Well, I've thought about it!" Kalu replied affirmatively. At this moment, I couldn't see the slightest hesitation in his eyes. He knew exactly what he needed.

Looking at the tauren Luka with a slight stubble on his lips, at this moment, Luka gave me the feeling that this young tauren boy has completely grown up.

So I kept silent, and Noah's voice calling my name came from far away. I don't know how he found this place. I searched for the source of the sound and turned my head to look over. This guy had already emerged from a low bush, with a few dead grass fragments on his head. He looked a little embarrassed.

I looked at Noah who was trying to adjust his breathing rhythm, and asked Noah casually: "How have you been planning to enter the prison for Sword and Rose these past few days? Have things turned around at all?"

"Forget it, I have been writing my application for joining the club for three days, and I haven't received any reply yet. It seems that the hope is slim. I have tried to contact some other clubs. I want to find a club that can jointly study combination magic. In the past two days, I also tried to find two societies, but unfortunately there was no clear reply!" Noah looked a little frustrated and sighed.

But obviously, Noah failed to find a club that suits him. Although he suffered repeated setbacks, this did not stop Noah's enthusiasm to join the club. Then he looked up and looked at the surrounding scenery, and was surprised to see the beautiful lakes and mountains here. Looking at the quiet beauty, he admired it twice and said to me: "Jijia, this place is really nice."

The next moment, silence fell suddenly. We sat side by side on the pebbled grass by the lake, remaining silent, and no one spoke.

After a while, Noah added: "...Maybe our brothers were targeted. In the morning, Dennis secretly told us that people like Ivan and Jimmy talked about their grievances with us almost every time they met in the academy. That The president of the Alchemy Society secretly told him that if he hadn't had some real talent, there would be no need for the president of the Alchemy Society to risk offending the people in the Ming Literature Society by recruiting Dennis into the club."

"But Jijia, what are you doing here?" At this time, Noah suddenly came back to his senses and looked at me with a suspicious look on his face and asked.

Then he looked at Luka who was sitting next to him with some envy, and said to me with great certainty: "This tauren retinue looks very strong, it's really cool!"

I was just about to explain to Noah when I saw an old magician wearing lotus robes walking slowly towards this side from the lake.

Before he even came close to us, he was already waving to us. Although I couldn't hear his voice, I was secretly happy and thought: "Finally, I've been waiting for you!"

I stood up from the grass numbly, patted the dead grass scraps on my body, and quickly winked at Luca, so he and I ran slowly towards the old mage.

Noah saw the old mage from a distance, his mouth widening, as if he remembered something, his face changed suddenly, and then he thought about pulling me back, but when he reached out, it was a step too late. Already taking Luka to meet the old mage.

"Hey, Jijia, come back quickly. Don't go there, unless you want to work as a coolie in that medicine garden..." Noah's voice was lowered and he spoke quickly.

But at this time, I, who was walking in front, had no intention of stopping. I just turned around and smiled "hehe" at Noah, and then said to him: "I'll go over and take a look first. You still have a little time to make a decision." Stay or go..."

After saying that, I took the tauren Luka and walked happily towards the old mage...

I left the stunned Noah where he was. He stared at my leaving figure with wide eyes. I guessed that he must be shouting in his heart at this moment: Jijia, I’ll punch your lungs out!

At the same time, the "Magic Academy Life Guide" was left in place. The rough booklet was flipping through the snow-white pages under the breeze of the lake, and it kept making a "crackling" sound...
