The next day we learned that there was a thunder rhinoceros in the caravan that fell on the edge of the cliff with one foot in the air, and accidentally broke a leg, and the entire mountain road was paralyzed, and the thunder rhinoceros weighing several tons was not at all able to be moved by manpower, and the three intact legs were not enough to support its huge body and the more than ten tons of goods it carried, and it fell to the ground and could not get up again, because its organs had been crushed by its own weight, and thick viscous purple blood was flowing outward from the corners of its mouth, eyes, nose and ears.
If you keep waiting like this, there will be no turnaround, even the old Kuru can't cure the fallen thunder rhino, if you wait any longer, maybe everyone will be trapped here, and in desperation, you can only choose to give up the thunder rhino, and finally unload the goods on its body, it is the old Kuru who sings a song of the orc clan tune to mourn and comfort the soul can return to the arms of the beast god, and personally results in the thunder rhino with tears in the eyes and painful thunder rhino, which is somewhat sad for the old Kuru, You must know that it is very difficult to cultivate a domesticated thunder rhino, and a headless thunder rhino is a very valuable asset for orcs, and sometimes they are more important than their families, and suddenly a thunder rhino was abandoned like this, and old Kuru's brain couldn't turn for a while.I still go through the endless parchment scrolls every day, and sometimes when I'm tired, I just sit up and meditate.I don't even use those spells unless it's necessary to use anti-magic to remove the fire element from my body.I have been able to maintain it for a long time now that I have been practicing the postures that Jonbach taught me every day, and I am looking forward to him complimenting me when he sees that I can do it so well.Kuz seemed more and more silent, always like to sit next to me in a daze, he said that this place is not far from his home, I don't know what to say, so I sat with him on the back of the thunder rhinoceros, he crossed his legs and feet to the soles of his feet, his hands touched his ankles, silently lowered his head, and the pair of big hairy ears also drooped downward.I clasped my hands on my curled knees, curled up into a small ball, and looked up at the mysterious starry sky above me, wondering if there was also my home in this vast sea of stars.After twenty-seven days and nights, we finally walked out of this road of death, and finally stepped out of this narrow mountain road where we slept and worried about whether we would roll into the mountain stream.We didn't encounter extreme blizzards or the freezing rain that is most likely to occur in spring, nor did we encounter the unpredictable dragon hurricanes in the valley, and any small disaster, such as a road collapse or a landslide, would kill us, but our caravan finally managed to get out, and it was no longer a narrow mountain road, but suddenly opened up a lot, and the two mountains would be fifty or sixty meters away from each other at the narrowest place, and the valley here was flat, and there was a lot of purple moss growing on the ground, As far as the eye can see, it is full of life.Dozens of thunder rhinos gathered in this open field, and everyone in the caravan stood on the back of the thunder rhino, raising their hands and letting out a deafening cheer.At this moment, everyone finally threw away the fear in their hearts, and all the people in the caravan spontaneously began to sing, which was a widely spread folk song praising the rich products of the Roland Continent, the simple folk customs, and the brave battle against the demons, the low and melodious song echoed in the valley, and the caravan's flag fluttered in the cold wind.Old Kuru pointed to the sharp mountain walls on both sides of the knife and axe-like traces to tell us that this valley was once a glacial belt, the steep mountain walls on both sides were carved by the huge glacial movement to the current state, the last glacier here has also melted decades ago, if you want to see the glacier, you have to walk along the mountain stream to the deeper valley for a hundred miles, to see the largest glacier belt in the northern foot of the Pai Plateau.We hadn't seen any sign of the Grey Dwarves for a few days, and it made us think that maybe it was spring when the Grey Dwarves entered the Pai Plateau for hunting or something, and the lifeless atmosphere in the caravan suddenly became lighter.At the entrance to this slightly wide valley, not only large patches of purple moss grow, but behind the large rocks there are also good-tasting wild plants such as purslane and wheel grass, and farther away there are bushes under the rocky cliffs at the edge of the valley, and some of the men of the caravan began to gather dry wood for dinner, and some unloaded the heavy supplies on the thunder rhinoceros and began to set up tents.Caravans drove out of the mountain road one after another, and the faces of the girls in the dance troupe were reflected in every window, watching them hug each other with tears in their eyes and laugh, releasing the depression and fear of death for a month.The vanguard of the adventuring group was constantly thinking about the next stop of the convoy, just as I was standing on the back of the thunder rhinoceros to carefully see if there was any Sister Guoguo in the scout team in the front, but I saw Tia riding on the horse very fancy on the horse turned over, waving to me, his emaciated face was covered with green stubble, but he seemed to be in good spirits, it turned out that he was in the scout team.Until the most important horse also disappeared from my sight, I still didn't see Sister Guoguo.At that moment, I heard a familiar voice under my feet: "Hey!
What are you looking at, I haven't seen you for a month, and I feel like I'm growing taller again. ”The snow-white face was swaying with a youthful smile, the moment I saw her mouth, the corners of her mouth turned upwards and bloomed into a blooming begonia, Sister Guoguo had taken off her heavy leather armor, wearing only a thick long skirt, the neckline showed a large area of snow white, standing at the feet of the thunder rhinoceros and looking up at me, in the afternoon sun, the long maroon hair fluttered in the wind.Without hesitation, I jumped down from the thunder rhinoceros more than eight meters high, without making any buffer, Sister Guoguo was dumbfounded, the heavy spell scale came out of her mouth, and the dazzling magic light between the slender fingers turned into a magic feather in an instant, floating to my feet and instantly growing to more than two meters long, directly catching my body steadily.Before the magic feather completely fell to the ground, I jumped down from the magic feather like a monkey, and suddenly jumped on Sister Guoguo's body, hooked her snow-white neck with both hands and hung in front of her, shouting: "Sister!
”"You little monkey, scare me."
Sister Guoguo held my hands under my armpits and held me in the air for most of the circle, her long skirt blooming in the rotation, reflecting her white face.In the Empire, ordinary civilians were still afraid of magicians.They all walked around the road as carefully as possible, and whenever they walked near me, the men's laughter would be much more restrained, and they would look at it carefully with strange frightened eyes, which made me and Sister Guoguo a little uncomfortable, so Sister Guoguo simply pulled me to walk to a place where there were fewer people, Kuzi hid behind and looked at me, I waved to him and beckoned him to come over, and Kuzi cheered and followed us.We talked about the difference between commoners and magicians, but Sister Guoguo was blunt, she told me that once you become a magician, you will automatically be crowned a nobleman of the empire, and then receive some rewards.In fact, the gap between civilians and magicians in big cities is not large, the difference is that magicians can receive subsidies from the Imperial Treasury every month, and the local government will give good welfare treatment to awakened magicians among civilians, just like the government's free housing, you can freely enter and exit the city library, and you have the priority to leave the city when you go out of the city, or the farms and shops in the name of magicians only need to pay 50% of the business tax, etc.Of course, there are also down-and-out magicians who are hired by some civilian merchants, and these are just a few examples.According to my understanding of what Sister Guoguo said, the special group of magicians is more like a high-level intellectual such as a university professor in the original world, and they are not particularly high-minded.But why did the people in the caravan fear the mage so much?
No one will leave their hometown for a few years without worrying about food and clothing to do this hard work.The caravan is also divided into three categories of people, the highest category belongs to Lord Leipas and his deputy, of course, the special status of the old Kuru, the second type of people are those who are only responsible for controlling the thunder rhinoceros, they are hired by the big bosses behind the caravan for a lot of money, and the third type of talent is the deputies and the caravan handyman, these people belong to a group of people who need to earn an industry for themselves, or exiled or wanted or unidentified wanderers and other people without an industry, they are the people who fear the magician from the bottom of their hearts, Because each city has a special departmental tribunal, many magicians are invited to become executors, and their mission is to find out what the most vicious criminals that exist in the city.The mystical magicians are notorious because of the inquisitors, who despise money and power, and only seek justice and truth, and eliminate all evil forces.I asked Sister Guoguo curiously, "Sister, are you an executive officer?"
”Sister Guoguo dragged my little hand, and with the other hand, she stepped over the puddle on the ground with her skirt, stood up straight and stroked the messy hair scattered on her forehead, and put it behind her ear before saying: "When I was in the Academy of Magic, being an executive officer has always been my ideal, and the treatment is good, and you can also accumulate merits, and there are many senior brothers and sisters in the institute, you will get a lot of care, and their uniforms are also very cool, but then I gave up, if you go there, there will be no other opportunities to make money, self-discipline is the most basic code of executives, But I need money, I also have to buy Sue a fake prosthetic leg from the Orianna boutique store, I have seen it, the same appearance and touch as the real legs, and it has three magic arrays in it: light body technique and primary wind speed walking elementary agility technique, and it can also be inlaid with primary magic crystals.If you go back this time, you should be able to do it!
Hee-hee, that's a giant two-headed mutant wind wolf, we dug up two magic cores, it's a dual-attribute magic core!
”Sister Guoguo was in a good mood, and pulled us outside the camp against the mountain wall to find a quiet and sheltered boulder and sit down, and Kuzi and I picked up a lot of dead branches scattered outside the bushes in the valley, and Kuzi skillfully ignited a pile of dead leaves with a fire sickle, and the red flames swallowed up a pile of dead leaves with green smoke, and ignited the bush branches.Kuz skillfully set up the grill, and the three of them sat around the fire and began to tell some stories about their experiences on the road to death.As we chatted, we baked the dough slightly and ate it while it was hot.Later, when the flame gradually became smaller, and only a pile of red charcoal was left, Kuzi took out a leg of mutton wrapped tightly in oiled paper, tore off the wax-sealed oiled paper, and slowly rotated the leg of mutton on the grill, and it didn't take long for the leg of mutton to be roasted to brown, and began to drip down with oil, falling into the charcoal fire with a sizzling sound, seeing Kuzi carefully brushing the sauce and honey on the leg of mutton, Sister Guoguo also sighed in surprise:" The news from the caravan said that they had two orc children who were the best at making the most delicious food, and they had the secret recipe of the orc clan in their hands, and the things they made were delicious, did you mean that?
”Kutz and I looked at each other and pointed at each other and said, "He did it!"
