Dragon Contract God

Kurt was sitting on the caravan's carriage. His identity at the moment was a mercenary magician escorting the caravan. Behind more than [-] carriages, there were three or four hundred fleeing refugees, making the entire team look very long. , appearing mighty.

Everyone's destination is the core city of Dongfeng Ridge - Sayu City.

"Your Excellency Kurt, depending on the situation, we will be able to arrive at Saya City this afternoon. The newly built road is fast, so don't worry even if it has just rained!"

Tansan, the leader of the caravan, is a very kind uncle. He talked to Kurt with a smile, "Speaking of which, it's thanks to Your Excellency this time. If you hadn't beaten that gang of robbers away, we would have suffered heavy losses this time." .”

Kurt looked at the smooth road on which the carriage was driving. It was obviously poured with stones mixed with some kind of magical coagulant. He did not expect such a clean road to be seen in such a small place as Dongfeng Ridge.Then he smiled and said to the leader: "Your Excellency Tansan is a good person, and good people will naturally be rewarded."

Tansan knew what Kurt was referring to. He looked at the refugees behind the convoy, sighed and said, "I didn't do anything. If there were not stations along the way to receive these people and provide them with food, water and medical treatment, I would have done nothing." I dare not let such a large group of people follow the caravan."

Kurt sighed and nodded. He has witnessed a lot of terrible things that hungry refugees will do in the past few years. Speaking of which, the people who rule Winterwind Ridge are really amazing, and they have built this place into a Taoyuan in troubled times, no wonder there are a steady stream of refugees flocking here.

Tansan obviously thought of going with Kurt. He pointed to a mountain not far away and said, "Look there, it is a magic water tower designed by Master Mole himself! It was built under the supervision of his enchanters. It is said that it is The wind power of Dongfeng Ridge is used to extract groundwater, and the cost is very low. With these magic water towers, Dongfeng Ridge has tens of thousands of acres of fertile land, and the refugees have land to cultivate when they arrive here, so they don’t have to worry about their livelihoods!”

Kurt was very touched. He always felt that the best use of magic was to improve people's lives, instead of enslaving ordinary people as inferior people like most magicians he met before.

"So, is that Moller a good man?" Thinking of this, Kurt couldn't help but clenched his fists—no, maybe this is just a flashy performance, and he will take that old man who has nothing to do with the world into a place, and say Maybe there is some terrible truth hidden in the dark!

Kurt cast Eagle Eye to see the patrolling guards on the magic water tower, thinking that the guards are really tight, so he secretly warned himself to be more careful.

They finally arrived at Sayu City. After the caravan passed the inspection, they only paid a very low entry tax and entered the city. The refugees following the caravan were guided by special guards and went to the station outside the city.There is a complete supply of medical and living supplies in the station.These people will go through a series of inspections at the station to ensure that they are not carrying the plague, nor are they wanted fugitives, and then they can be properly placed after being registered.

All of the above was told by Master Tanzan to Kurt, and he had reservations about it. After entering Sayu City, his eyes kept on staying on the magic tower in the center of the city that could be seen from anywhere in the city— ——That is the ninth-order magic tower!That Mole seriously injured a 9th-level magician by relying on this magic tower. Obviously, what this magic tower can release is not ordinary 9th-level magic, and its power should be quite terrifying!

As a result, Kurt became more cautious, not daring to slack off just because he was a senior magician.

Three days later, Kurt stood speechless in front of a tall, crowded courtyard, with the corners of his mouth drooping weakly——he had been careful not to reveal his real target for three days, but he didn't expect that the old man was He is well-known in Saya City, and he lives in such a lively place, which doesn't match his imagination of being imprisoned in a dark and heavily guarded prison!

The sign of "Qi Ming Library" was hung directly above the gate. Kurt was a little shocked when he saw many civilians coming in and out, holding books made of parchment in their hands - he didn't expect that civilians were allowed to learn knowledge freely here.

When I walked into the library, I found that it was very large. Hundreds of shelves were displayed in rows, and at least hundreds of thousands of books were collected. Many people lingered during the period. For every copper coin, you can borrow a book.

The old man is not here, according to what Kurt inquired, he is at the back of the library, Kurt walked through the rows of bookshelves with a strange woody smell, and saw a small door leading to the back of the library, on the door hung a A simple sign for "Magic Apprentice Enrollment Office".

As a high-level Sorcerer's Stone, Kurt could tell at a glance that there was a restriction on this low-profile door, and only those with magical powers could push it open.And when he pushed open the small door, he saw a very large square in front of the door, where groups of children and young people gathered together, many of them were trying to cast magic—all basic magic .

"Hello, sir, I see that you are a new face. What is the purpose of coming here? I only need a silver coin, and I can give you a detailed introduction! Don't be too expensive, there are many outsiders here who don't know , if no one introduces it, it will be difficult at the beginning..."

A small boy saw Kurt sharp-eyed, and immediately leaned over to sell his services. Upon hearing that, Kurt decisively paid him a silver coin and said, "I'm here to find Mr. Marsh."

"It turns out that you also came to sign up to be Mr. Marsh's apprentice, so you are here!" The little man took the money and led Kurt with a smile: "Mr. Marsh is the best magic instructor here. Two apprentices have become official magicians, and we are planning to recruit two more! There are only two places, and the competition is fierce. If you want to listen to my inside information, you only need to pay one more silver coin to increase your chances of being admitted!"

Kurt looked at the kid speechlessly, dispelling his idea of ​​continuing to make money: "Be honest and lead the way, just introduce this place by the way!"

The little man was a little disappointed, but he still dutifully introduced a silver coin. He told Kurt that this is a place dedicated to cultivating talents with magical talents into official magicians and magic warriors, providing rich learning resources, and Many magicians who are good at teaching apprentices are here as mentors. Since its establishment more than a year ago, it has produced hundreds of official magicians and more than 200 official magic warriors. It can be said that the achievements are outstanding.

The little man brought Kurt to a small three-story building. In front of the small building was a beautiful green wooden and vine-framed courtyard. At this time, there were more than a dozen teenagers standing in the courtyard. They brought an old man with silver hair Surrounded in the middle, talking about something lively.

"Mr. Marsh!" Kurt called out. The old man seemed to be doing well, not only had a rosy complexion, but also gained a lot of weight.

When the old man saw Kurt, he was stunned for a moment, and then tears filled his eyes, and he rushed over enthusiastically with his arms wide open: "Oh, cute little Kou Kou, when did you come back? I thought I would never see you again Already!"

Hearing this familiar nickname, Kurt felt helpless, but Marsh enthusiastically introduced Kurt into the house, and at the same time introduced to others: "This is my best apprentice Kurt who I often mention to you. , he was already a high-level magician when he left me to venture out!"

The dozen or so teenagers looked surprised. Although Mr. Marsh was good at teaching apprentices, they always thought that the high-level apprentice he was talking about was bragging. After all, he was only an intermediate-level apprentice.

"Today's activities are over, you can study by yourself." Marsh happily dismissed the apprentices, and then asked carelessly: "Kurt, what level are you now, and have you made any breakthroughs?"

Kurt's face darkened: "Of course it's still level 7, it's not so easy for high-level powerhouses to improve their strength!"

Marsh introduced Kurt to the small building, and said: "Hey! If you came here last year, you might be able to break through! There are many precious magic materials in Saya City, and you will definitely be able to gain a lot with your aptitude. !"

"Your environment is good!" Kurt looked at Marsh's room. The magic circle set up here is not only very safe, but also can control the temperature and humidity. The whole room is very comfortable, very suitable for an elderly man like Marsh. the elderly.

"This is the house assigned by Lord Moller to the mentor who teaches the apprentices. I usually spend half of my time here." Marsh said, showing a bit of complacency: "But my real residence is a manor outside the city!"

"Manor? Which nobleman invited you to be a dedicated magician?" Kurt asked suspiciously. Although Marsh has intermediate strength, he doesn't know how to fight at all. He had been running his own farm in a small place before, and no nobleman recruited him.

"That's my own manor!" Marsh said loudly, feeling very elated to announce the news in front of his senior apprentices: "I taught twelve official magicians last year, and I was the most successful among all the mentors. , so Master Mole personally received me, and rewarded me with a manor, with a castle and a lake, the environment is very good!"

Kurt was really surprised: "I heard from Little Huot that you were captured by the people from Sayu City. They came here to rescue you, but I didn't expect you to be doing well... Now it seems that it was that little Huot who came here to rescue you. Let me save him from a slave trader, a deliberate story..."

"You mean the miller's son, Little Hott?" When Marsh mentioned this, he couldn't help feeling a little depressed: "At that time, there was a war, and the army of the Kitu Kingdom couldn't resist the attack of the Shuiyang army. I hid in the mountains for a while, but the people from Sayu City came to recruit me, and after a few days, I heard that it had been looted..."

Kurt didn't want the old man to be affected by these things, so he asked about the situation in Sayu City. Marsh really became interested, and he enthusiastically recommended to Kurt the warrior training ground outside the city.

Kurt said, "I've heard of this, but isn't that where spell operators below the advanced level are trained?"

Marsh shook his head with an expression of "you are out of date" and said: "That was before. Half a year ago, Lord Moller remodeled the warrior training ground, and it is already possible to test high-level powerhouses. I heard that the effect is good!"

Kurt saw Marsh mentioning that Moller many times, with a look of great admiration, but thinking about what he saw in the past few days, the actions of that person are worthy of such admiration.

Under Marsh's warm hospitality, Kurt lived in his manor for a while, spent dozens of gold coins to experience the training effect of the training ground, and learned about the favorable conditions for recruiting talents in Saya City. After a few days, he decided to stay here.

Outside is the chaotic world of gunpowder and war, but this remote corner of the world is full of vitality and prosperity. It is indeed a place that is easy to fall in love with!

This is Mole's third year in Sayu City. The entire Dongfeng Ridge has undergone earth-shaking changes under his management. It is not only rich and powerful, but also just and strict. It is full of opportunities. There are constantly people like Marsh and Kou. People like Te came here and have stayed since then, becoming the fresh blood for the construction of this place.

At the same time, Moller didn't let political affairs delay his enchanting research too much. At the end of this year, he tried hard for a long time to make the ninth-level magic item, and he was about to succeed.
