113. Who is the target of the Hermitage of the Black Magic


Jen0tRj08vR'rff2Nu next to the carriage and talks with Bard about the prices of various herbs on the market.Karantso sat on the rampart of the carriage, ignoring the men of the Emerald Bay Trading House, and went freely between the living room and the corridor.

\rRather than wasting her time tending to the men in the trading houses carrying herbs, she preferred to stay by the carriage and spend a little more time with me.

\rBard, who was standing next to him, squinted his small eyes, his fat face looked like a piece of cake, he frowned and stared at the fellows, urging them: "Hurry, hurry, I want to send these herbs to the Magic Potion Guild before sunrise, don't slow down, all run for me." ”The men in the trading houses, although they gritted their teeth with hatred, no one dared to refute them, and no one dared to ignore Bard's words.As for the guys in the trading house, although Bud is a little harsh, it is undeniable that Bud is a very good businessman, he is very sensitive to those boring numbers, and he almost opens his mouth when I ask him about the price of several herbs.He was very familiar with the magical herb market around the imperial capital.

\rSloit Province is close to the Pai Plateau, where the orc tribe is located, and the entire Pai Plateau grows hemostatic grass everywhere, so that the price of hemostatic grass is very low.The merchants of Sloit believed that the low price of hemostatic grass in Sloit, combined with the high transportation cost of the caravan, did not want to carry large quantities of the hemostatic grass from the Pai Plateau.In the province of Sloyd, hemostatic herbs have always been used as an extremely inexpensive herb in herbalists and grocery stores.

\rBud knew a lot about herbs, and he told me: "Usually the price of hemostatic herbs is very stable, and only recently has the price of hemostatic herbs risen uncontrollably, after all, it wasn't the magic apothecaries themselves who stirred it up?"

”\rBard was full of concern about the current situation of the imperial capital's herbal medicine market, and he complained to me: "Now that the healing potions on the market have become a straining commodity, all the magic apothecaries who can make healing potions don't want to let go of such a rare opportunity to make money, and compete to buy hemostatic herbs, so that the market is in a mess!"

”\rI asked with some puzzlement: "The fundamental reason why the price of hemostatic herbs on the market is still high is that the fronts of various planes are tight and there is a lack of a large number of healing potions.But what can these hemostatic herbs do?

They can only make some of the most basic primary healing potions, so why not use intermediate healing potions?

”\rBard said with a wry smile, "The price is the main reason, the price of the Imperial Blood Grass has been high, so the price of the Intermediate Healing Potion has not been able to come down.Hey, don't talk about the Imperial Blood Grass, you can't even see the leaves of the Imperial Blood Grass on the market now!

I don't know when this battle for new territory will end. ”It turns out that the price of the Imperial Blood Herb is even more expensive, and this kind of second-level magic herb has become extinct in the Imperial Capital's magic herb market, and according to Bard, it is basically extinct.

\rHalf a month ago, I had sent a bag of seeds of the Emperor's Blood Grass and a dozen seeds of the Phoenix Tail Flame Grass to an orc to Karantso, and told her to let the tree elves carve out a place in the herb garden of the circular valley to plant, and be sure to use the dilution of the tree essence to urge them to shorten their growth cycle as much as possible.After a few profound lessons, I found that the orcs had no talent for planting, and they couldn't even tell which one was a weed and which one was a herb seedling, so two years ago, I said to Karantso: No, they can't go on like this, they will completely destroy my herb garden, and they have to find a better way.

\rAfter some communication with the World Tree, let the grass and tree fairies who live next to the World Tree be responsible for taking care of the magical herbs in the medicine garden, and those orcs are responsible for guarding the World Tree, in fact, before there is no foreign enemy to invade the Xinliu Valley, there are almost no species in the Xinliu Valley that can threaten the World Tree, after this discussion, I have strengthened my determination to build a mountain city on the mountain pass outside the circular valley.In the end, the unequal contract for the transfer of jobs was successfully signed.

\rThose plant elves have successfully become hard-working gardeners, yes, they are gardeners by nature, and it seems to be an instinct to take care of those plants that contain magic in their bodies.Moistened by the growth of the first lord aura of the World Tree, this magical herb garden became lush.The Grass and Tree Growth Lord's aura ability seems to be very powerful, and it can shorten the growth cycle of magic herbs by nearly ten times, and those low-level magic herbs with a growth cycle of more than three years will mature if they are planted in the herb garden with a growth cycle of no more than four months, and if you use the life essence dilution, this growth cycle can be shortened.

\rAnd this month, a large number of primary magic herbs have just entered the maturity stage, and the warehouses of the underground caves will hoard so many primary herbs.Next, I will gradually replace the primary magic herbs in the herb garden with more valuable intermediate magic herbs, but it will take a little time.

\r\rLouis rode slowly back from the far side of the street on his tall horse, facing the rising morning sun, his silver scales shining brightly, and six knights lined up behind him on the left and right, like knights returning triumphantly.Bard and I went up to him, and seeing that the anger on Louis's face had not yet dissipated, he tightened the reins, stopped in front of me, and then leaped lightly from his horse.There was a bloodshot on Louis's face, which added a bit of cruelty to his resolute face like a knife and axe, he had a layer of cyan stubble on his chin, his hand touched the crusader's saber, and he walked to the magic caravan in a few steps, and he saw that the guys in the trading house were constantly carrying bundles of hemostatic grass outward, and his gloomy face gradually eased."

I'm sorry, Jiga, to get you involved in this mess too, but I'll fix it as soon as possible." ”Louis apologized to me."

Louis, I don't know how to express my gratitude, if I hadn't met you, I'm afraid I would have been killed by the stabbing guest in my sleep. ”At the same time, I would like to express my gratitude to Luis.

\rThe two of us spoke at the same time, and after saying this, we were stunned for a moment, and then laughed at the same time.Louis strode up to my body, with a kind smile on his face, reached out and patted me on the shoulder, and said to me politely: "Speaking of which, you are probably implicated by us, and it is estimated that the dreamers of the assassin profession are from the Dark Arts Order, and there is no doubt that they are here for those magical herbs. ”He slammed his fist on the compartment of the magic caravan, and there was a fist-shaped dent on the metal iron, and he said angrily: "These people are unscrupulous in order to prevent our Mensa family from making these hemostatic herbs into healing potions and sending them to the front line, and now the security of the imperial capital has really rotted to the root. ”\rThen, he told me not to go out of the school gate casually for a while, he said: "However, if you offend those people of the Magical Retreat, you must be more careful in the recent period, and try not to enter and leave the Academy of Magic as often as possible, at least the Royal Academy of Magic is still very safe." ”\r"I didn't expect the people of the Black Magic Retreat to be so rampant, stabbing a magic student of the Royal Academy on the streets of the Imperial Capital, I will report this matter to the Imperial Capital Guard Battalion, and ask for an explanation for you, I will report this situation to the head of the Royal Lion Eagle Knights, the old guys of the Magic Guild have been conniving at these evil mages of the Black Magic Retreat for too long, and the will of Charles the Great of the Green Empire will not allow these evil groups to exist that undermine the stability and unity within the Empire. ”\rLouis decided to convince the Commander of the Royal Knights that he wanted to use the power of the Royal Knights to completely clean up the dark magic hermitages hidden in the imperial capital, because just yesterday, an airship carrying the primary magic herbs of the Mensa family was hijacked at the border of the imperial capital, and the clues revealed on it pointed at the dark magic hermitage.This incident made Louis in a bad mood, and if he didn't handle it well, he would even be reprimanded by the Grand Duke of Mensa.The robbery of the airship had a great impact on Louis, after all, he was currently sitting on the throne of the first heir of the Mensa family, and countless young people of the Mensa family were eyeing this chair, and Louis, who was in this position, walked on thin ice every step forward, and did not dare to make any mistakes.

\rLouis was a little different from what I thought, and I think they should have come straight to me for the Dream Maker Killer of the Dark Magic Retreat.

\rI thought of the three members of the Dark Arts Retreat that I killed in El City, the mad alchemist, the Ignaz Scholar, and the evil mage Mondtroia, all of whom were supposed to be the core figures of the Dark Arts Retreat in Sloyt, but they fell into my hands one after another, and I knew that one day the Dark Arts Retreat would come to my door, but I didn't expect them to find me at this time.

\rBut when I finally thought of the morning mist, that scarlet eye, I always felt a shudder, it was a fear that came from my bones, it always felt a little familiar, I knew the breath of that man, he should have been the one who followed me at the tavern door yesterday.I also knew very well that he was definitely not the Dream Maker Assassin, they were two separate people, and when I think about it, they were both targeting me.

\rThat's a bit of a headache!

Louis asked me with some curiosity, "Jiga, I'd like to know if all the magicians in the North are as proficient in combat as you?"

”As far as he could see, there was a water stain where I had frozen the Nightmare Assassin with the Frost Nova, and if it hadn't been for the Assassin's use of the puppet, perhaps the one who had been frozen into ice slag would have been the Assassin.With some regret that I couldn't catch the culprit who wanted to assassinate me, I calmly said to Louis, "There should be a lot of them!"

After all, our people have to defend themselves against the barbarians who come to the ice and snow tundra every winter, and in our small town, if you can form a small team, the warriors who kill the barbarians will be called eagles, and in the city of El, a group of young eagles will appear every year, and I am one of them. ”\r"You should be the best of the young eagles, right?"

”Louis said.

\r"My classmates are also very good. ”I said to Luis.

\rHe just smiled faintly, thinking that I was very modest in what I said, in fact, at this moment I thought of Theresa with Rock Height, Swift, Lava Heart Thomas, etc., they have all become very good now, and last winter, they also participated in Operation Eagle, but I remember how strange and strange their expressions were when they saw me standing with Moraya.

\r"Just because you just released the magic, it is not difficult to see that your control of the rhythm of the battle, the control of the timing of the release of the magic scroll, are very accurate, and the shot is decisive, you are a very good ice control magician, have you ever thought about what will happen after graduating from the Royal Academy of Magic?"

”Louis asked me very directly."

Of course, I'm going to return to the North, maybe join the Legion of the North Wind, I want to drive all the barbarians back to the icefield, or I can build a high wall at the southernmost point of the icefield to keep them on the territory north of the icefield forever. ”I thought about it for a moment, and then said to Luis.

\rLouis didn't think there was anything wrong with me thinking like this, he even said with some emotion: "Hearing you say this, I really want to go to the north to recruit some warriors, in this case, I have to deal with that Duchess of Ellie once, sometimes, when I think of a powerful woman, I have a headache, it's really a great trouble!"

”\rI know he's joking, because the future Duke of Palestina can't recruit warriors in Sloitte under any circumstances, which is tantamount to openly challenging the rights of the Grand Duke of Sloit.

\rThen, Luis glanced at Karantso, and exclaimed, "With the servant of an orc warrior, you are not afraid that those wolf orcs who worship freedom will come to you for trouble?"

”\rI shook my head slightly, it seemed that Luis was very curious about Carantso, there was a sense of surprise in his eyes, I didn't want Louis to have some interest in orc slaves, it was not good news, I could only vaguely reply: "I have wandered on the Pai Plateau, and I know some friends of the orcs, an orc wise man who is revered as Mayana, let her follow me and protect me." ”\r"Have you met the wise men of the orcs?"

What a blessing for me, I heard that some of them were great prophets. ”Luis continued.At this time, at the urging of Bard, the men in the trading house had already moved all the delicate wheat flour into the house, and all the elementary magic herbs were loaded into the magic caravan, and then came over to ask Louis if he could leave for the magic apothecary's union.

\rLouis nodded.Several magic caravans then set off one after another, followed by a dozen knights on horseback.Before leaving, I handed Louis a stack of drawings and asked him to help me figure out how to make the parts on the drawings, which had already been negotiated, and Louis agreed
