My Magic Age

Suppressing the excitement that was about to burst out of our hearts, the four of us found a Green Empire Style Steakhouse in a shop on the edge of the free market. Looking from the outside, there were not many customers inside. This is exactly what we are thinking at the moment, find a quiet place and count the money slowly.

Looking from the outside, you would never expect that the inside is decorated like this: on the four walls of the restaurant is a panoramic oil painting that is 80 meters long and 6 meters high. The content of the entire oil painting is an autumn scenery outside the city.

After entering the restaurant, I bypassed the screen blocking the front door and entered the restaurant. My whole vision was subverted. The 20-meter-long wall opposite the main entrance was painted with an endless castle, as if we were standing there. View the entire city from a high hill. I could feel the grandeur of the entire city, and how small the Thunder Rhinoceros caravan waiting at the city gate, preparing to cross the 100-meter-wide moat to enter the city, was under the forty- to fifty-meter-high city wall. The architectural style of the entire city is very close to the Baroque style. I can even clearly see every block in the city. There are pedestrians walking on the street and a wide variety of shops. It seems that there should be exquisite products behind the transparent display windows. I thought maybe it was a beautifully styled dress. The wall on the left is covered by a roaring river, which disappears from west to east at the end of the field of vision. Huge waves roar on the wide river, and hundreds of meters long boats can only struggle with the waves on the turbulent river. Countless one-meter-long salmon were caught in fishing nets hundreds of meters long, and the faces of the fishermen on the boat showed expressions of joy. The wall on the right is painted with endless mountains, forests and fields, with endless golden wheat fields and fruit-laden golden apple trees as far as the eye can see. Oh my god, I wonder why I was eating that damn dry, hard brown bread all the way?

"Ah! This is... this seems to be a painting of the Galloping Horse River. It should be Sloit City, the city in the northernmost province of the Green Empire. I never knew it was so beautiful there! Jia, wait for the caravan to pass by. We must go for a walk when we are in Sloit Province!" Qige was also moved by this huge panoramic picture and exclaimed.

I looked back and saw on the wall at the door a painting of the snow-capped mountains of the Pai Plateau hidden in the clouds. The meandering Baixiang River and the Benma River flowing around the entire northern foothills of the Pai Plateau meet at the snow-capped mountains. Below, the entire south bank of the river is covered with large wheat fields. At this time, I was looking at everything in front of me excitedly, as if I was in it. I wonder, is this where I'm going to live? This city is really what Uncle Fred said, it is so huge.

"Well, Qiqi, I heard that the Sloit Ivory Tower Magic Academy here has the library with the most comprehensive collection of books in the Green Empire. We can go and have a look." I continued, my eyes never leaving the beautiful pictures on the wall. It seemed that Eating has become less important at this moment.

Kurtz looked confused next to me. He looked at me sadly, as if asking me again: You are going to leave eventually and return to live in a human city, right?

"Dear distinguished guests from the human kingdom, if you don't mind, please choose a suitable seat, sit down and enjoy it slowly. We have the best golden cider and home-brewed barley wine from the Sloit Province of the Green Empire. "It should go well with the roasted devil antelope legs and white bread recommended by today's kitchen." An orc waiter in a well-dressed leather coat came out and said to us.

Only then did I notice that there were more than thirty tables in the entire restaurant. There were some square wooden tables with four seats and six seats along the walls. Only the round dining table was placed in the center of the hall. The four of us chose to sit down at a table for four in the corner, simply ordered one portion of white bread and four portions of roasted lamb legs, and then sent the orcish waiter away.

"Do you think the owner of the magic potion shop will regret it? I always feel that our ore is not worth that much money! Qiqi." I expressed my worries. I don't want to cause trouble in this small town. I've been in a lot of trouble lately.

Qige was sitting opposite me, looking at Kurtz with great interest. Kurtz and I sat on one side, across from Catalina. He seemed very reserved at the moment, he didn't even dare to raise his head to look at Catalina, and his face was flushed. When I asked her, she replied: "No, he may think that this batch of ore will not make much money, but he will not regret it. I am sure that the royal amethyst in these ores will be extracted and ground into royal amethyst." If you are a fan, it will be worth almost twenty gold coins. You have to trust the vision of professionals. In addition, I would like to remind everyone that we made money from our first investment. What I provided was technology, and the funds you provided were not as good as ours before. But it’s a good deal.”

"Ah!" Catalina exclaimed in surprise, not thinking that just by shopping once, she would get an unexpected harvest.

Qige put the money bag on the dining table and divided the twenty gold coins into three parts. Catalina got four, Kuz and I got eight, and she kept the rest and said to us: "This Just pay me and I won’t give you any change.”

Kuz and I had mixed feelings when we looked at the eight gold coins in front of us. We never expected that Qige would use such a method to help us solve our current predicament. Such a large amount of money can almost allow an ordinary family of three to live comfortably for three years. There has been no problem for five years. Judging from the current market price, even if they live in a human city, if they don’t have to worry about a place to live, an ordinary family of three can live well with fifteen silver coins per month. There is no guarantee that they can eat meat every day, but You can guarantee that you will have white bread to eat every day, and you can eat beef once in a few days. And a moment ago, we were still worrying about raising fifteen silver coins.

"Jia, is this what we got?" Kuz couldn't believe his eyes and rubbed them hard.

I put my arm around his shoulders and said, "Well, this is the return on our investment. Hey, is Qiqi a mineral concentrator?"

"Hey, I said you only have eyes for your orc friends, do you never take me seriously?" Qige glared at me angrily and said, "If you had asked me earlier, you should have known this. , or you only need to go to my room once and you will see my bottles and jars. I am not a mineral concentrator. I am also a junior potion master. As a potion master, if you know the materials for making magic potions, Not complete, that’s what This is the biggest dereliction of duty. In fact, I originally planned to select some rich ores from the mithril mine and melt some mithril ingots. This is the fastest way to make money at the moment. I have a natural affinity for the magical elements in the ores. Very sensitive. But I didn’t expect to find these ruby ​​associated ores on the street stalls, and I didn’t expect that they actually contained royal amethyst. This is because we are lucky and it feels really good to make money.”

"Are you a magic pharmacist? Then you can make medicine for wounds?" I asked excitedly.

Qige rolled her eyes at me and said, "You can keep your voice down, I can hear you. This is also my secret. I don't want the entire team and dance troupe to know about it. But having said that, I can only produce the worst quality A secondary life potion, and to refine a bottle of this life potion, do you know how many styptic grass and silver leaf grass are needed? The cost is definitely as high as you can imagine."

Qige turned to stare at Kuz, narrowed her eyes and said: "Your little orc friend seems to be very interested in my maid, but tell him that from now on to the future, we are teammates of the same team. I declare that I I will officially join your team with Katarina, and will follow you into the wilderness at the northern foot of the Pai Plateau for hunting experience. I don’t want to lose my life because my teammates were distracted in the wilderness. Wouldn’t that be an unfair death?”

"But...but we can't even take care of ourselves, and entering the wilderness is not without danger. I can't guarantee your safety!" I sweated on my forehead, thinking that these two delicate eldest ladies could What to do? Sing and dance during every break in the wasteland. This is no ordinary camping, we have to survive in the wild. Even if advanced Warcraft rarely appear in these areas, ordinary Warcraft also eat meat, right?

To be honest, Kurtz on the side is a little overconfident. In fact, the curiosity about Katarina is just the curiosity of the werewolf nature. The orcs can never suppress their own nature. Instead, they often rely on their nature to do things. Whether they like Katarina or not is just a matter of thought. Katarina has nothing to do with Kurtz. The attraction to a rabbit is almost the same as the attraction of a rabbit to a wolf. It is innate. No one can say it without thinking about it. I know that Kurtz has been looking for ways to control his nature because I am his friend. Well. Kuz muttered, "We are teammates! We are teammates! We are teammates!" and then gradually calmed down. When he raised his head and looked at Qige and Katarina, he felt more natural, but still nervous and even nervous. Can't speak. I gave Kurtz an encouraging look.

Qige sneered at me and said, "Whoever needs you to protect me will never know who will protect whom. I just want to go into the wasteland to find some elementary magic herbs and magic ores. How can there be danger? You don't know magic." Pharmacist is actually a life profession of a magician, right? Do you feel honored to have a seventh-level magician apprentice join your team? Come on, I'll give you a chance to kiss my toes!"

Qige's jokes between us became more and more serious. He is always so unscrupulous that I am embarrassed and unable to continue. She is usually as quiet and calm in front of outsiders as a pool of autumn water without waves. In late autumn, there is a layer of light mist floating on the water, which always makes people unclear and unpredictable. But after really getting to know her and becoming her friend, I discovered that she is completely an otaku, a fujoshi who likes to dig into other people's privacy. She often asked me questions that made me very embarrassed. Sometimes I would ignore her in anger, or yell directly: Why don't you ask your brother this question?

She would always ask me confidently: Are we still friends?

Qige's temperament is sometimes directly related to her dress, just like when she wears a formal dance dress or a palace dress in a caravan, she will put on makeup very formally and dress herself up to look stunning. She wished she could become a heartthrob. At that time, she was She is a little fairy, a vixen full of infinite charm. At this time, she often has a quiet and calm aristocratic temperament like an iceberg that is far away from others. Her dancing is more like the weird and coquettish flower of the other side in hell, stunningly beautiful. But it can also make people sink into the sea of ​​desire. Even if I have nothing to do, I usually don't go back to watch Qige dance, it's too sad.

When she usually dresses up innocently, she will deliberately hide her beauty, and at this time she is more approachable. Qige doesn't like to talk to strangers. She prefers to stand aside quietly without any sense of existence. But when it comes to familiar people, she is often like a homely girl who wants to shock people. At this time, she didn't forget to say to me: "But it's you, Jia, you won't go to the wilderness without any weapons, right?"

When Qige said that she was a magic pharmacist, I was wondering if she was a magician. When I heard her say this, I couldn't help but ask curiously: Since you are a magician, why don't you go to the magic academy? Now I feel that Qige may be a good teammate!

I can't help but wonder: Why do I meet so many magicians in this caravan? I even doubt whether the magicians in the Green Empire are really as few as others say?
