I'm not a magician

On the way, the rabbit pawed at Sylvia and turned to look at Ji Chi many times.

It had never seen Ji Chi like this before. He sat quietly in the sleigh car, looking into the distance, with remorse and struggle in his deep, dark eyes.

The rabbit twitched uneasily. Although Ji Chi, a traveling companion, sometimes doesn't understand anything, and sometimes is very mean, but...

Sylvia felt the restless rabbit in her hand: "What's the matter, are you hungry?"

The rabbit reluctantly rubbed the armor on Sylvia's wrist, and asked in a low voice, "Can you put me on the sleigh?"

Sylvia thought it was uncomfortable, leaned over, and put the snow-white mass on the silver-white sleigh.

The sleigh was refitted by the old goat man. The original fir frame was knocked on a thick layer of metal. This layer of metal looks very cold, but it is not cold when the skin touches it, and there is even a trace of coldness. Warmth.

The rabbit didn't notice this change, and jumped onto Ji Chi's knee, kicking him with his short short legs: "What's wrong with you? I've been with you for so many days, and now I've only been with the general for half a day. Not happy?"

Ji Chi glanced down at it, ignored the thick-skinned rabbit, and continued to struggle with the matter of "whether to write Brandon's black history as a biography and sell it to St. Colly".

Seeing that Ji Chi didn't taunt him anymore, Rabbit felt that the matter was a bit big, so he turned around in a hurry, and described the customs and customs of the Northland to him carefully, hoping to divert his attention.

The rabbit's soft and soft narration failed to divert Ji Chi's full of revenge, but made Sylvia hungry. After she learned that the Countess had returned from Saint-Terry, she didn't say anything, but immediately summoned He gathered a hundred soldiers and rushed to the fortress city to meet her without sleep.

The expedition soldiers on the frontier have all undergone high-intensity training. The continuous rush will not cause harm to their bodies, but hunger and exhaustion are inevitable.

But they didn't complain at all, but followed Silvia firmly, following the order without regret.

Sylvia saw a rugged black shadow in the distance, and there were smoke billowing into the blue sky. It was the shadow of a village. She pulled out the sword at her waist, pointed at the village in the snow, and ordered in a deep voice: "Go to the village!" Tal village is advancing, and we will be stationed outside the village tonight to rest."

"Of order!" The soldiers answered in unison.

The countess smiled and glanced at Sylvia: "When did you become so soft-hearted? I remember that when you were training soldiers, it was easy to run continuously for ten days and ten nights."

"That was in normal times. Recently, there have been more and more violent beasts breaking in from outside the fortress, and they are already very tired." Sylvia pursed her thin lips, "You can even see violent beasts here, There must be more near the fort."

The countess waited for a long time before she said solemnly: "Next time I will go back to the fort by myself. You are a general, and you can't just let go of one life in your eyes."

Sylvia stared straight ahead without speaking.

The expeditionary army was getting closer and closer to the village. Instead of entering the village, they found a flat place outside the village to shelter from the wind and set up white tents one after another.

The soldiers hadn't eaten for several days. Their eyes were green with hunger, but they still prepared food in an orderly and disciplined manner.

They took out a pile of flammable charcoal from the luggage under the armor, and added a few magic fire crystals to it. With the sparks from the flint and steel, a bright and warm bonfire gradually rose.

The Snowfield Expeditionary Army is very demanding on the physical training of the soldiers, but in terms of basic necessities, food, housing and transportation, they use the highest quality items.

The delicious and tender pieces of meat frozen in the package were roasted on the fire, emitting a burst of oily aroma. There were relatively few seasonings on the snowy field, and the soldiers were also used to the monotonous taste. Sprinkle a rub of snow-white rock salt, and then smear a layer of crystal honey, and you can pick it up with the tip of a knife and eat it.

Sira glanced at the sizzling roast meat, then at the dried meat in her paws, and resolutely slid to a bonfire. Her red rabbit eyes were moist and affectionately watching the soldiers grilling meat.

The soldiers were amused by it. They waited in the fort all year round, and all they saw were ferocious and ferocious wild beasts. Few such delicate and soft animals dared to approach them.

It was not easy to meet a rabbit that was willing to be petted. The soldiers had no obvious faces, but they honestly passed a piece of fragrant barbecue in their hands, and snored on the rabbit's fluffy back by the way.

A soldier also took out a pot in his luggage. He cut the dried meat brought by the rabbit into small pieces, put it into the clear boiling water formed by melting snow, and slowly boiled it into a pot of thick and fragrant broth. Don't forget to put in a few plant roots found by digging down the snow layer.

The rabbit tasted the taste, sighed contentedly, hopped to find Ji Chi, and poked his magic bag desperately.

While rummaging through the magic bag, Ji Chi asked it doubtfully, "Didn't you say that you want to vomit when you see jerky?"

The rabbit dragged him to the direction of the campfire: "You will know after a taste!"

When Ji Chi saw the pot of broth, he understood: "Oh, I'm still a baby who can't cook, it's hard for you to eat the ingredients for several days."

The rabbit rolled his eyes at him: "Oh, you human being who eats sandwiches every day, you still have the courage to talk about me?"

Ji Chi: "There are no conditions, do you understand? Have you ever heard of the Manchu Banquet? There are 108 dishes, and I have... seen it before."

The rabbit laughed mockingly: "Come on, I think it would be good if you can roast the meat well."

Ji Chi was very angry, feeling that he was underestimated, rolled up his sleeves and asked the soldiers for a piece of fresh snowy lamb, skewered it with shaved fir branches, and roasted it on the fire with confidence, saying: It is necessary to let it have a taste of the demeanor of a big gourmet country.

However, due to his illness, he has eaten clear soup with little water for 25 years, and he himself has not appreciated the demeanor of a great gourmet country, so how could it be possible for others to appreciate it?

In the end, Ji Chi held up a bunch of scorched meat skewers that looked salty and sweet at first glance, and silently stretched them out to the rabbit's mouth, inviting without changing expression, "Try it, it must taste good."

The rabbit looked at him suspiciously. Under Ji Chi's earnest gaze, the innocent baby still believed in the black-hearted adult, and opened his mouth to take a bite.

This bite almost sent away the one-year-old baby rabbit.

Seeing that it was buried in the snow and pretended to be dead as soon as it finished eating, Ji Chi twitched the corners of his mouth in dissatisfaction—as for what?

Thinking that he himself would bite off a piece... Then, he chewed the food in his mouth stiffly and sluggishly, and he could only comfort himself crazily.

After one kebab disappeared, the two cubs finally calmed down, squatting obediently in place, waiting for the soldiers to feed them.

The orcs on the snow field were all enthusiastic and forthright, and they piled the freshest meat and the thickest broth in front of Ji Chi without hesitation, and Ji Chi also reciprocated, generously bringing out the limited edition sandwiches from the Academy of Magic to share with them.

The sandwiches baked by Aunt Mary are worthy of being the food that the delicate little magicians want to grab, and they have also won unanimous praise on the snowy field thousands of miles away.However, the orcs eat a lot. In their eyes, a small sandwich is just a delicious appetizer, and a large piece of roast meat rich in calories is their main meal.

Ji Chi was almost full after eating two pieces of fist-sized barbecue and a large bowl of thick wild vegetable broth. He picked up the rabbit lying on his back on the snow to digest food, and held it in his hand as a hand warmer. After saying hello, I walked to the village not far away.

The villagers of Tal Village have noticed this army for a long time. They have a good impression of the expeditionary army. Everyone who lives here knows that with the protection of the expeditionary army, they can live happily and in peace without fear of the claws and fangs of wild beasts. Life.

But when they saw the expeditionary army at this time, they were still a little guilty, and when they saw someone coming, they all showed a strange look.

When Ji Chi entered the village, he was not stopped by anything. The villagers were busy with their work and pretended to be natural.

However, acting and pretending is too difficult for the stupid orcs. Ji Chi, bathed in fluttering eyes and heavy breathing, feels very helpless, and feels that if he doesn't find anything abnormal, it is disrespectful to them.

Ji Chi sighed, came to a tall and flustered young orc, and spoke to him kindly: "Hello."

The young orc didn't expect that he would find him, and immediately widened his eyes, and looked around in a panic, as if he was looking for help from the sidelines.

However, the IQ balance of the orcs outside the arena was insufficient, and they couldn't protect themselves. They turned their heads cruelly and pretended not to see them, and some even ran away in a hurry.

Young orc: "..." He also wanted to run away...

The young orc gave a muffled hum, and asked in a rough voice, "What's the matter with you?"

Ji Chi smiled: "I want to ask, are there any shops selling food here..."

The place where he was standing was the only road in the village. The road was formed by flattening the thick layer of snow, and it was essentially a vast expanse of whiteness. Ji Chi just raised his eyes, only to find a snow-white corner of his clothes shining beside a wooden house. After a while, it seemed to be on the road.

The keen young orc heard the movement earlier than Ji Chi, immediately grabbed him by the collar at the back of his neck, and quickly lifted him into the room!

Ji Chi: "???"

Ji Chi knew that he had no malicious intentions, so he didn't resist. After being put down by him, he naturally found a stool in the room and sat down.

The young orc was still panting in fright, and two round brown ears popped out of his head——

Ji Chi: Oh, it’s raging, it’s all right, it’s understandable what they do.

The young Xiong Xiong looked out of the window, but he heard no other movement, he let out a long breath, and dragged a stool to sit next to Ji Chi.

He complained with a bitter face: "Why are you coming to the village just at this time?"

Ji Chi asked him, "Who are you hiding from?" He knew that the people who suddenly appeared just now were people from the Holy See, but he wanted to hear what the villagers thought of the Holy See.

As expected, Xiong Xiong, who had no roots, was very cooperative. He scratched his ears, and his dark brown eyebrows frowned: "Are they the Holy See of the Sun? Or the Holy See of Shining Lights? Well, they are the monks of that Holy See... They are so annoying! Every day We are required to recite a lot of things, if we can’t memorize them, they will say that we are heretics, and we have to be baptized or something..."

Ji Chi had heard about heretics from Rabbit's mouth before, but he didn't expect to encounter them now. He also frowned and asked, "Are there many people from the Holy See of Light? Can't your entire village resist?"

Young Xiong Xiong showed a embarrassed expression: "They are very powerful, and they are all magicians, how dare we hurt them?"

Most of the people living in the north are orcs, and there are so few orc magicians that anything related to magic is extremely rare, and the orcs treat magicians with care as if holding them in the palm of their hands.

Ji Chi couldn't bear to look at the raging expression, and after being speechless for a long time, he asked, "You can ask the expeditionary army for help, the general will warn them, right?"

The young Xiong Xiong turned pale with fright, and quickly waved his hands: "Please don't tell the general! Those people said that the expeditionary forces are all heretics, and if they offend the God of Light, God will issue a divine ring to punish them!"

"Besides, they have worked very hard against the wild beasts, we can't cause trouble for the general." Xiong Xiong shook his head, and said firmly and sadly, "Isn't it just a prayer? We will definitely memorize it!"

Ji Chi: "..." Their brain circuits are so stupid that they don't know what to say.

Ji Chi thought for a while, but still felt that the Holy See didn't need to ask for trouble by asking the raging people to recite those awkward prayers, so he asked, "Did they really just let you recite and not do anything else?"

The young Xiong Xiong showed a frightened expression—what do you mean by just reciting?Isn't it scary to recite?

He said with lingering fear: "They said that after we can recite prayers fluently, God will hear our request and grant us shelter."

Xiong Xiong pointed to his chest: "For sheltered races, there will be a pattern here, which is a symbol of God's favor."

After Xiong Xiong told Ji Chi everything he knew, he took him to the back door of the hut and told him: "Get out of here quickly, don't be seen by them, and don't tell the expeditionary army! Oh, we will try to recite it , at that time, maybe we can pray to the God of Light to bless the expeditionary army!"

Ji Chi: "..." He wanted to remind them that it's better not to recite those evil prayers, but he found that Xiong Xiong couldn't even recite the word "God of Light", and he didn't know whether to sympathize with the Holy See or not. Sympathy for Xiong Xiong...

After thinking about it, he returned to the camp and went straight to find Sylvia.

Sylvia was sitting in the tent, her sister held her in place to care for her face.

The countess frowned tightly: "How long has it been since you put on rose, orange blossom and basil cream? Oh—your skin is so rough that you can polish a sharp sword."

Sylvia slowly rolled her eyes.

Seeing Ji Chi's expression that she had something to say, she invited him in with joy.

Hearing his description, Sylvia's face sank. Wolves are animals with a strong sense of territory. She will never allow anyone to force the people she protects near the fortress.

"I see, I will let someone investigate clearly." Sylvia said coldly.
