The form of the shadow mist couldn't go too fast after all, and I stood behind Anthony and the fat groom, slowly revealing my true body from the black mist, silently watching the two of them disappear at the end of the cellar with a moonstone in hand.Putting my body in the dark, slowly, my eyes began to be able to adapt to the surroundings, and I was able to make out the scene within ten meters in this darkness, although it was very confused, but at least I could see.I'm thinking about how I can get out of here, I'm going to bring this news to Cynthia, he should be familiar with the affairs of Zimmerman Manor, and I want to hear what she thinks.Since there are some people trapped in the cellar, and they have to be rescued from the depths after all, and there is nothing to do with sin or evil, I must bring the news out of here, and then let Captain Cynthia find a way to dig the cellar open from above, and I will come back to explore the secrets here.My friend Bobby often told me about the erosive love history of some aristocratic and wealthy families after dinner, such as the life of Viscount Payne, who only likes virgins, the life of Duke Charlotte who likes to drink the blood of young girls, a certain prince and princess have a hundred and one lovers, and that prince turned out to be a crooked, and sometimes, Bobby will discuss with me whether their descendants are pure enough bloodline and so on.And her girlfriend Millie sometimes squinted at us and seemed to agree with Bobby's ability to criticize these upper-class cultures.I will not jump to conclusions about the good and evil of two people just because of their words.I think everyone has their own piece of light and darkness in their hearts.As for determining a person's right and wrong, punishment and guilt, it should be the daily work of the officials in the Knights of El City's Ruling Office, I am just a small magic apprentice, and I am only here to save people, nothing more.But I can't figure it out, the so-called rotation of Anthony and Fat Groom should be a patrol mission in the wine cellar, right?
But in such a confined space, why is there such a thing as a rotation?
I glanced up at the vents in the ceiling, which were five or six meters above the ground, and if I wanted to climb back through them, I had to climb up to the vents, and my eyes fell on the neatly arranged barrels in the cellar, which were stacked five levels upwards, and the barrels on the fifth floor were less than two meters high from the ceiling.It's just that the vents above the ceiling are not directly above the barrels, but above the passages in the cellar, which is a real headache.The easiest way to do this is to remove the casks from the stacks and stack them neatly in a pyramid shape that leads to the vents.In this way, it was not difficult for me to climb the barrel, but after I climbed to the top of the barrel, I could only smile helplessly when I looked at the vent in the ceiling three meters away, a foot and a half square in the ceiling.That's right, in addition to my package, I didn't even have a rope necessary for survival in the wild, in order to be able to carry as many magic scrolls as possible, I cleaned out all the items that can be used for survival in the wild, and let the minotaur Ruka carry it, but I didn't expect that when I can use it now, Ruka is not by my side.I stepped back about twenty meters along the neatly arranged wine barrels, took out the moonlight stone drum totem, and placed it inside the magic robe, so that when I used it, the faint light emitted from the stone drum totem would be blocked by the magic robe, so as not to be noticed by the people in the wine cellar.I counted the landing point of each foot, and it had to land in the center of the barrel so that I could jump upwards with all my strength.And you have to control the rhythm of each step, and the moment you jump up, you have to decisively climb the gap in the bluestone slate wall of the vent.Walking, running, I stepped on the barrel, and the pace made a kind of drum beat, which could not be concealed, but fortunately it was very soft.The pace became faster and faster, and finally one foot stepped on the barrel closest to the ceiling vent, I jumped high, watching the closer and closer to the vent, I held my breath, gritted my teeth and stretched out my hands to buckle the stone wall of the vent A little bit of height, my fingers brushed the edge of the stone wall, and instead of hanging on the vent as I thought, I fell directly from the nearly five-meter-high barrel shelf.Such a little height is nothing to me, try to open your hands as much as possible, make the resistance of the falling trend as great as possible, bend your legs slightly, put your toes on your toes, make your body look like a Z-shaped spring plate, and the moment you fall on the ground, I can have enough cushioning space.When I was living in a caravan, I often slid off the Thunderrhino, and each adult Thunderrhino was a meter tall.The moment I felt my toes touch the ground, I reacted quickly, curled up in a ball with my head in my hands, and rolled forward.After finally counteracting all the momentum, I used the last bit of strength to stretch out my body and get up from the ground.Looking at the ceiling above my head in chagrin, I decided to try again.I didn't think the second jump would be higher than the first, this time I decided to take out a dagger, as long as the dagger was successfully inserted into the crack, my hope should be much greater.So I calmed my breath and climbed to the top of the barrel again.Running from slow to fast, jumping high, slamming the dagger into the stone wall, successful.The movements were clean and neat, but unfortunately at that moment, my body was like a piece of bacon hanging on the beams of the house, and there was no point of force to stop my body from swinging, and finally I couldn't hold the dagger, and fell directly from the vent, and then I began to sit in the aisle of the wine cellar blankly, staring blankly at the black hole vent, looking at Sister Guoguo squatting beside me, I could only smile bitterly.Rubbing my ass hard, I slid up from the ground and continued to climb up to the barrel shelf, running, jumping, failing five times in a row, I sat on the floor of the cellar gasping for breath, and now I was a little embarrassed, I was exhausted and unsuccessful in what I thought would be easy to do.Sigh, this has a lot to do with the fact that I have been sitting in the classroom of the academy studying recently, and when I came home, I locked myself in the attic to draw magic scrolls, since Ying Li left, I probably haven't had a morning run for a long time, and I haven't done the most basic physical training for a long time, usually Ryan can still urge me a few words, but when I became a magic apprentice, everyone naturally thinks that as a noble magician, you don't need to be physically fit, anyway, you don't need to charge on the battlefield.It seems that the most basic physical exercise every morning is still very much needed!
If Kutz had been by my side, he would have laughed at me now!
Suddenly I felt that there was someone next to me staring at me silently, his eyes were clear, I thought it was Sister Guoguo who was tired of wandering around, I turned my head and smiled at her, but found that it was a strange little boy, he hid his body in the gap between the barrel and the barrel, only one head was exposed, he had soft blonde hair, and his light blue eyes showed a curious gaze.I was taken aback by him, and when he saw my surprise, he seemed very happy, his big eyes narrowed into a crooked crescent, but the joy seemed to be only a moment, and immediately he realized that I was staring at him, and that his secret hiding place was discovered by me, and the boy was a little flustered, like a gopher that had been cautiously poking his head out, and after finding danger, he quickly retracted his head, and I leaned over curiously, and found him hiding in the gap of the barrel with a nervous face, looking at me vigilantly."
Hey!"
I put my hand on the edge of the cask outside, tapped it lightly with my knuckles, and greeted him softly.My courtesy won the boy's affection, and I regarded this place as his territory, so I knocked on the door symbolically, and he pursed his lips, still not letting his guard down, and stared at me with big eyes flickering.Just when I thought he couldn't speak, the little boy said, "I've never seen you in the manor, are you an apprentice in magic in El City?"
”The little boy used honorifics when he spoke, and he could see that it was a child from a certain aristocratic family, nodded, and condensed a crystal of crystal clear ice in the palm of his hand, and said to him, "That's right, I am a first-year magic apprentice of the War Magic Academy. ”When he heard my affirmative answer, his eyes suddenly brightened, but he blinked in confusion and asked me, "Why did you come here?"
”"Oh, it's my turn to ask you, isn't it?
We can ask each other a question and then answer a question, or we can choose not to say it, but we are not allowed to tell lies!
”I looked the little boy in the eye and said to him."
Okay!"
His voice was small, like a frightened bunny.But after thinking about it for a while, he continued to say to me: "You can go around from that side to the back, this passage is the way they must go through for patrols, and in a moment they will be coming back, it is not safe here!"
”He pointed to the small gap next to the barrel shelves and said, "You can get in from there!"
”I smiled and shook my head, sat down directly in front of the gap in the barrel where he was hiding, rested my head on the hard, wine-smelling barrel, and asked the little boy, "Are they the two you were talking about?"
”"Yes, those two people just now are our family's winemakers, Anthony and Mav Harry, it's time for you to answer my question."
The little boy was still cowering in the corner, but his guard was not so heavy.I simply said to him, "I am an eagle, and where there are savages, I will go!"
Our eleventh squad went all the way north from the city of El, and after crossing the Antian Mountains, we were originally going around in circles with the barbarians in the hilly area, and later, following the footsteps of the barbarians, we arrived here, and I feel sorry that this place was captured by those barbarians!
”The boy's eyes darkened at once, and he put his forehead on his knee and was silent for a while, and then asked me, "Is the town over?"
”"Well, I can't find anyone who survived, two heavy snowfalls, and everything was buried."
I said to him in frustration.We came to Maas Town with a glimmer of hope, hoping to help Maas Town, kill the barbarians on the outskirts of the town, so that they can't attack Maas Town with all their might, but unfortunately we came one step too late.The barbarians who stepped on the ice this winter are different from the past, these barbarians with giant bear totems tattooed on their chests have a more brutal temperament, they not only capture male subordinates, but even eat people when they are hungry, the barbarians in the past will not do this kind of killing chickens and eggs, but these barbarians have destroyed several manors along the way we came."
Are you really an Eagle Warrior?
Your Excellency the Sorcerer!
”The little boy was silent for a moment, but immediately raised his head and stared at me with a fierce gaze and asked.I nodded firmly and said, "I was assigned to Eagle Eleven, but now I'm an apprentice in magic, not a magician. ”"Well, I know, my dad told me that whoever can become an eagle is a warrior from El City!"
The little boy looked at me with a look of adoration, and then his eyes darkened, and he said pitifully with a frown, "He is dead, he was killed by the barbarians, he is a knight."
When I grow up, I want to be a warrior like you and avenge him with my own hands!
”I looked at him in amazement, adversity can make people stronger.Ask him, "Can you tell me who you are?"
”"My name is Ann, Ann.
Zimmerman. ”Ann said his name, and it dawned on me that he was the child of the Zimmerman family, just as I thought."
I can help you with this matter of revenge!
I can tell you how it takes to be strong enough. ”I sincerely reached out to him, and he decisively handed it to me, and with my help, Ann got out of the gap between the barrels.I climbed to the top of the barrel stack in three or two clicks, then leaned down and stretched out my hand down to him, saying, "Come up, I'll pull you!"
”"I" Ann was a little hesitant, probably a little scared."
Don't be afraid, I'm pulling you, you won't fall!
Aren't you going to be a warrior as brave as your father?
”I encouraged him.He gritted his teeth, stubbornly refused my help, and climbed up from below, alone, with all his strength.When he was about to reach the top, his hand failed to grasp the edge of the barrel, and it fell down at once, and I was prepared, and quickly reached out, held his hand firmly, and said to him proudly, "I said it, I will catch you!"
”I sat face to face with him on top of the barrel stack, then took a water bladder from my magic fanny pack and handed it to him, and pulled out half a hard-baked wheat cake.He couldn't wait to take it, and took a big bite on the wheat cake, and before he even had time to chew it, he swallowed it, and it seemed that he was hungry.I said to him slowly, "Now, you can tell me what happened in the manor after the barbarians came?"
