It is rare to have the opportunity to stand on the roof of the school building and watch the scenery of the whole city.Looking down from my location, the cleanest area of the city is the southeast corner, most of the buildings here are mostly two-story small buildings, these small lofts with their own characteristics are lined up one after another, each single building backyard has a delicate little garden, planted with lush fruit trees and flowers, the streets are lined with neat trees, forming rows of green shade for pedestrians to enjoy the cool, here is clean and tidy, the street occasionally has gorgeous carriages passing by, and it can also drive very smoothly on the straight and flat street, The southeast corner of the city is considered the wealthy area of the city, my home is at the very edge of the area, and Ying Li's residence is in the center of the area.The northern part of the city is the slum area, and although the houses here look like small two-story buildings, most of them are simple silos, which look quite old.Although the streets are also planted with green trees, most of them are golden apple trees, which are also a source of livelihood for the slum dwellers during this season.On the north-south axis of the city, there is a clean and tidy commercial street, which is the most famous central street in the city of El, but this street is divided into north and south, and the two central streets in the north and south are divided into two by the central hill in the center of the city, and only by bypassing the ring road built around the foot of the mountain can you reach the other end of the central street.Most of the shops on Central South Street are high-end shops, mainly magic shops, tailors, leather shops, herb shops, weapons shops, which sell the most high-end goods in the city, and in the southwest corner of the city, there are large auction houses, grand theaters, and the guard barracks of El City are located here, and in the north part of the city, in addition to the slums, there are free markets, livestock markets, slave markets, and so on.The whole city was encased in a wall sixteen meters high, ten meters thick at the base, with four gates and tall arrow towers built on the four corners of the wall, and light ballistae placed on the walls, one every twenty paces, which could easily pierce the thick chests of the savages of the ice and tundra, who would have stopped here for decades.On the other side of the outer moat of the city, a number of wanderers and untouchables live there, and when the plague strikes, it will be razed to the ground.But in peacetime, it's a paradise for homeless people and refugees.The environment here is very poor, there are filthy garbage everywhere, there are no special people to clean up, but there are also good places, that is, the city's tax collectors never stop there, and it is next to the moat, there is a water source that can be supplied for free, in addition to the perennial relief station, in which you can receive free black bread, of course, each person can only receive one piece a day, only to ensure that there will be no starvation to death.At my feet was a rich and quiet northern town, I stood at the top of the rooftop, feeling that as long as I was a little higher, I could reach the clouds on the horizon, Ying Li looked at the corner of the rooftop in the direction of the distant temple, the clouds were pressed very low, I couldn't see the whole outline of Mount Antia, the whole temple was also under the clouds, and some of the taller buildings were even inserted into the clouds.Taking advantage of the recess, we secretly ran to the rooftop to see the city scenery together, which was recommended by Yerkes, and he told me that if I had the chance, I must go to the rooftop of the Magic Guild's teaching building to see the whole city, and from there it would be a different taste to look down.I began to tell about the events of Saturday afternoon, and when I mentioned that there were priests in the temple who tried to arrest me and put me in the manor in the back mountain, Ying Li looked a little gloomy and said silently: "Auntie is right, this temple is already full of rotten smell, and only by cutting off those carrion with a sharp knife can the whole temple be restored to life and obtain the blessing of the goddess."
It may have been an unusually painful process, but if the tumors were not removed, the temple would continue to decay. ”It seemed that the words of the elder Angel Bird who lived in the temple were particularly touching to Ying Li, and she recounted them in their entirety.I looked carefully in the direction of my own house in the distance, trying to find Su's small courtyard, there was a lemon tree in the backyard of her house, thinking of Ya'er's warning to me the night before, so I said to Ying Li: "I never thought that the priest in the temple was actually connected with the evil mage of the Black Magic Retreat, this is really a thing that people can't figure out anyway, maybe the magic guild will have some reaction, and the guard battalion will continue to investigate, after all, this is related to the safety of the entire city."
The night before yesterday, I saw Mr.
Morayar patrolling the trees in the park. ”After saying this, I suddenly regretted it, why did I mention Morayar in front of Ying Li?
There was also a hint of surprise in her eyes when she looked at me, and with a playful smile on her face, she looked at me curiously, waiting for me to continue.So I could only bite the bullet, but in any case I had a little weakness in my heart, and my voice became weaker, like a child who has made a mistake: "You know, she is a very good wood magician, as long as there are trees and jungles, it is her home field.She said that maybe there were still escaped fish from the manor in El City, or maybe they were all members of the Dark Arts Order. ”I went on to say to Ying Li: "I think El City has been full of potential dangers in recent times, so you have to be more careful these days!
”This is what I want to say to her at last, she walked slowly from the corner of the rooftop, her stature was relatively tall among girls of her age, at least not shorter than me now, and the reason why I didn't find her the same height as mine was probably because she spent her days with Helena and Lagertis, both of whom were extremely slender and good.She stood in front of me, covered her lips with a somewhat surprised smile, and then said to me, "Jijia, sometimes you can always give me a little illusion, like a child who doesn't grow up. ”I rubbed my nose and thought to myself, this is not something to be praised."
Gigga, don't you want to ask me about Nichols?"
Ying Li put his hand behind his ears the hair that had been blown by the north wind, and turned to me to ask me.She sighed a little resentfully, looked at me cautiously and said, "I know he must have told you something in class just now!"
”I was surprised and asked her, "Nichols only told me that the Emperor of the Grimm Empire decreed that you would be married to him, is there anything else going on?"
”Ying Li looked at me as if he didn't care, and when he heard me say this, he was slightly disappointed.She turned her head to look at the city street scene in the distance, avoiding my gaze, not wanting me to see the lost gaze in her eyes, and then tried to make her voice a little quieter, and said, "This is it, I thought you would care about it!"
”"Yes!
Of course I care, after all, he's coming to the door!
”I said unabashedly.She looked up at my face in amazement, and saw a burning flame in my sincere gaze, and I stared at her face, which was not very beautiful, although she would never give people a sense of amazement, but it was very attractive, and her face always gave people a bright air, which can only be found when you look closely.I said to her slowly, "I know that the Emperor of the Grimm Empire must not know that there is a little magic apprentice like me in El City, Sloit.As your elder, he has the right to find happiness for you in the second half of your life, and I don't deny that Nichols has all the good qualities of a nobleman, and of course he has a little bit of elven aristocratic pride, but it's not too bad.So I must grow up quickly, and be qualified to meet Emperor Green, and tell him what happened between us, so that he can take back that royal decree!"
”Ying Li didn't expect me to comment on the half-elf aristocratic boy Nichols so positively, he looked at me a little stunned, his eyes flashed with moving stars, and he said coquettishly: "But you can't beat him, after all, he is still my guest here, and I must save a little face for the royal family."
If Nichols had just run back to the imperial capital crying with that dark circle under his eyes, how would you let me explain it to my uncle!
”Then I said to her, "But I need to declare sovereignty to him, and I have to tell him that he is late."
To tell you some of my experiences, I think sometimes fists are the last word. ”She pursed her lips and smiled, the hanging heart completely fell back to its original place, smiling like a delicate pomegranate flower, her eyes looked at the drum tower standing in the south of the city in the distance, she didn't know what she was thinking for a while, but the smile on the corner of her mouth was more obvious."
Still, you've got to tell me what you think!"
I suddenly reached out and held her face, and said to her seriously."
I'll admit he's a little bit more handsome than me!"
She didn't expect me to suddenly hold her face, and let me hold it with both hands without the slightest defense, like a frightened rabbit, and asked me nervously: "What do you want me to tell you, I have openly stood with you in front of him, what else do you want?"
”"I don't care, anyway you have to tell me what you think!"
I gently kissed her on the forehead and said brutally.She stole a glimpse of the entrance to the rooftop, as if she was very worried that the iron door on the rooftop would suddenly be pushed open.I told her about Su again, and I think she was looking at me with a smile when she mentioned Su, but she was listening quietly and didn't ask any questions.Later, I talked about what happened to Su in the manor, and when she talked about the potions she was forced to brew with demonic blood, she opened her mouth, and her face showed a sympathetic look, Ying Li is a magic apprentice who specializes in magic herbs, she usually likes to read some books about magic herbs in the library, last time I went to Xinliu Valley with her to look for demon blood, and after she came back, she flipped through a large number of historical offerings, and concluded that the blue fire ink is an extremely rare magic ink.It has been said that "as long as you have the Blue Fire Ink, you have the magic scroll".It's an open secret, all along, magic catalyzes this magic scroll blueprint that can increase the power of magic skills when casting spells, it is said that a master who specializes in making high-level magic scrolls found in an ancient ruins, this magic scroll drawings were later copied by him in several copies, and circulated in every corner of the Grimm continent, this magic scroll is not advanced, as long as a slightly experienced master can draw independently.However, the magic ink used in this magic scroll is extremely rare in the Grimm Continent.Magic Catalysis is one of the few magic skills that can increase the power of spellcasting, but this magic skill can only exist in the form of magic scrolls, which means that magic catalytic magic scrolls are very rare, and because they are rare and practical, they are a very expensive magic scroll.Because of the magic catalytic scroll, the demon's blood has received a lot of attention from magicians, many magicians are studying the demon's blood, trying to find a magic material that can replace it, so as to be able to create more magical catalytic scrolls, of course, this matter has always been an important topic for various magic societies, and with the coming, the magicians gradually removed the mystery of the demon's blood.The medicinal properties of Demon Blood have been revealed in detail, including its magical hallucinogenic properties, and the fact that it only takes one or two doses of Demon Blood to cause addiction.A magician who tried medicine once wrote in his last book: Taking the blood of demons is like imprinting the soul on it, and you will never get rid of that unforgettable torment.Now hearing that the evil magicians of the Black Magic Hermitage in Northern Jiangsu were forced to drink the potion prepared by the demon's blood, Ying Li's face appeared with an angry expression, and he frowned tightly and said, "How can they persecute a priest apprentice in the temple like this, I want to tell my aunt about this!"
”"I don't want to let many people know that Su is an abandoned god because we poked this up, and those fanatical believers in the temple may have her burned at the stake!"
I hurriedly grabbed the angry Ying Li.Ying Li said to me sadly: "Then you say, do you want to let Andua get away with it like this?"
”"I don't believe that in other aspects, this cardinal will do a thorough job, as long as it doesn't involve Sue's safety, I can properly provide a little information to the Magic Guild and the old men in the guard regiment about their collusion with the Dark Magic Retreat."
I said to Ying Li.But this is just talking, I won't let Andua go so easily, even if he has the aura of the bishop of the temple, since he has touched my bottom line, he has touched Sister Guoguo's relatives, they belong to the people I want to protect the most in El City, I will make a complete plan to let him taste the taste of being abandoned by God and going to hell.I told Ying Li these things, in fact, I didn't want to hide some things about Su, because as long as Su entered Xinliu Valley, it would be inevitable that he would contact Ying Li after all, so I at least let Ying Li be mentally prepared.However, this time we brought back some demonic blood from Xinliu Valley, and only then did we discover a new business opportunity, that is, the expensive magic catalytic scrolls on the market, I didn't expect Xinliu Valley to have such a huge treasure of incalculable value.The pool of demonic blood in the stone chamber alone could make at least a thousand scrolls.Yerkis scholars always say that a successful master is built up with a lot of money, so I think that such a great fortune may be able to pave the way for my future masters.There was a bell ringing in the teaching building to prepare for class, and Ying Li and I listened attentively, knowing that if we didn't rush back at this time, we would probably continue to stand behind the seats in the demonstration hall to listen to the class, so the two of us hurriedly ran to the iron gate on the rooftop.Just when Ying Li and I just ran to the big iron gate on the rooftop, the iron gate on the rooftop was pushed open suddenly, and a group of people came out of it, including the cold as an iceberg Heidi Magic Mentor, her cold and beautiful appearance has burned below the freezing point, I only secretly looked at her at a glance to know that she was angry, those beautiful eyes can almost condense people into ice lumps of cold when they see anyone.She was followed by her assistant Sophie, who smacked me in the eye when she saw me, and it seemed that something was about me and I was secretly screaming!
Teacher Heidi is next to a group of knights wearing the uniform of the guard camp punishment courtyard, to say that these people are the real knights, they are not usually responsible for security or city defense trivialities, they are a group of guard battalion inspectors who supervise the conduct of knights, commonly known as punishment knights.Behind them, stood the great knight who had been on the manor mountain road and had several faces, and I saw him standing behind the crowd with a disparate face, and it seemed that he must be in a bad situation.I thought: to be invited over for tea by these precept knights, no one will look good!
Without waiting for these precept knights to make any moves towards me, Teacher Heidi's figure standing at the door of the iron gate instantly turned into an ice sculpture, and the next second her figure appeared in front of my body, one hand directly grabbed the magic robe on my chest, held it tightly in his hand, and held me in the air with one hand, I was tightly restrained in the magic robe by Teacher Heidi, and for a while it became a little difficult to breathe, and my face turned red.Teacher Heidi raised her head and asked me coldly, "Jijia, I'll only give you one chance, you have to be honest, how did a third-level magic apprentice like you kill that evil mage in the mountain manor behind the temple?"
Where did you hide all those treasures in the villa?
Hurry up, don't delay me, I still have classes!
”Teacher Heidi's cold questions made me feel like a bolt from the blue, and I was immediately stunned and didn't know how to answer, and I said to myself: This is trouble, how did Teacher Heidi know that I killed that evil mage?
When I was panicking and at a loss, I saw the old men of the precept knights behind me, looking at me and Teacher Heidi with embarrassed expressions.Sophie also kept giving me a look in the back, and I instantly understood that Teacher Heidi's move was to advance and retreat, and she took the lead in making a bold move, which was to directly seal the mouths of all the punishment knights, and the last sentence Don't delay my time, I still have a lesson that is clearly for those punishment knights, I instantly understood the original intention of Teacher Heidi.Pretending not to understand, he asked, "Mentor, what did you say?"
”Then he became panicked again, like a child who had made a mistake, and whispered, "You know about the appointment between Ying Li and me to go to the temple?"
”Ying Li stood aside and blushed all of a sudden!
To be continued.
