281. Shirley's best friends


On a summer night, a cool breeze hits.Walking on the long street of the imperial capital, the long street is full of traffic, there are far more magic caravans in the imperial capital than imagined, the soft light reflected in the car windows, you can see some noble ladies looking out through the windows, the chandeliers hanging on the shelves at the rear of the magic caravan keep shaking, and gradually move away with the carriage.The streets are lined with shops with a wide variety of goods in the windows, rows of cleanly wiped tables and chairs filled with diners, and waiters stream through the corridors, serving plates of delicious food.The people of the imperial capital know far more about nightlife than the people of El City.It was midnight, and Yerkes and I were aimlessly navigating the long streets.We didn't want to go to any wine store to drink, we didn't want to stop at a restaurant, and we didn't want to buy those gorgeous goods in the window, we just wanted to just stroll quietly down the long street and enjoy the night view of the imperial capital.Looking up at the night sky, a silver moon hangs high in the nine heavens.The floating royal city on Weiyang Lake was glowing beautifully, and I guess there must have been a grand dance party going on on it, perhaps inviting many nobles in the imperial capital, a few royal griffin knights to hover in the night sky.Yerkis sighed, and said with feeling: "It's been almost four years since I came to the imperial capital, and I have never wandered around the streets so easily, in my eyes, in fact, the imperial capital is no different from El City, but the people of the imperial capital live a little more comfortably, and they don't have the habit of hiding in autumn." ”I smiled and said, "Of course, they don't have to worry about the barbarians on the ice and snow tundra, those barbarians have been very fierce in the past few years, and I will make a fortune every winter." ”The Yerkes scholar didn't know about my winter capture of barbarian slaves, but when I took advantage of the winter barbarian attack, the magic scrolls I made would be more popular, so I said, "Those eagle squads in El City are willing to use magic scrolls?"

”"Well, many of the magicians in the squad will buy some at the magic shop before leaving the city!"

I say.The Yerkes scholar turned his gaze to the diners in the restaurant, withdrew his gaze, and looked up into the distance of the long street.I heard him say: "Originally, I thought that no matter where the people of the Grimm Empire were, they were no different. ”Yerkis paused, and then he added: "Now it seems that the Els are more industrious and simple, and they are usually very busy in the summer, and no one misses the harvest of the year, and those golden apple orchards outside the city are full of the fragrance of apples, and sometimes I want to go back and have a look, but when I think about it, when I see Dean Frygord, if he asks me: Yerkes, how are you doing in the imperial capital, has the dream of designing the magic pattern come true?"

”He smiled slightly, his smile was full of bitterness, and said, "If I don't have a little bit of achievement, what can I say?"

Could it be that the Magic Research Institute is a miscellaneous man, "Maybe it was only one step away from his dream, this night, although we didn't drink, but he talked a lot as if he was usually drunk, all the way, all the way, all the way, on this bustling Yulin Street, we walked from the Tower of Pride to the apartment where the Yerkes scholar lived.Along the way, I listened quietly, and occasionally said a few words, but mainly the Yerkes scholars were in charge, and I never noticed that he was such a talkative person, and he also had a full stomach full of complaints like the neighbor's aunt.Just walking outside his house, I smiled at him and saw a faint light shining through the curtain window, and said, "It's not too early, go home and sleep well with Eve in your arms, and think about those troublesome magic patterns tomorrow." ”"Where can I sleep?"

Yerkis reached out and brushed the messy hair on his head, and said excitedly: "I want to think about the other parts of the Demon Snake Fang Set, even if it is to add a little magic effect, we must make the most of our advantages, since we can, then I may be able to consider raising the various magic pattern arrays on this set of first-level magic pattern construction to a higher level" "Then I'll go first, there will be classes tomorrow morning!"

”I waved at Yerkes, turned and walked away.As long as it comes to the construction of the magic pattern, the Yerkis scholar is a complete lunatic, and can talk about it anytime, anywhere, regardless of whether others want to talk about it or not.I don't want to be dragged by him all night.But it seems that when we have this companion magic pattern that can reduce the demand, a door to the path of the master is opened for me, and it seems that I can see the flat and wide road behind the door, and maybe Yerkis and I can go far on this path.The morning sun fell on the forest road through the dense sycamore leaves, two copper-billed finches fluttered out of the dense branches and leaves, scraped off a few palm-sized leaves, a spotted civet cat pounced on the tree and fell from the tree, the long cat's tail flicked lightly, and landed firmly on the ground, and disappeared behind the bushes in a few jumps.From the end of the road, climb over the wall, and then cross an old earthen ecological garden, you can take a shortcut to the canteen.Noah walked side by side with me holding two magic books and said to me, "Louis said that there is a very large auction at the auction house next week, and there should be a lot of goods to be auctioned, do you want to go and see it?"

”The pace slowed down, I turned to Noah and asked about the auction house, and I asked directly, "Auction, is there an auction about gemstones?"

”Noah was a little surprised and asked, "Why are you interested in magic gems?"

I'm ready to ask Louis to get us two tickets to the Magic Pattern Fabric, and I remember if you prefer all kinds of high-grade magic leather and magic scroll crafting blueprints?

”I glanced at Noah and said to him, "I want to buy a soul gem!"

”"Poof" Noah happened to take a sip of water, stimulated by my words, and spewed out all the water at once, and in the sun, those faint mist reflected colorful colors.Noah glared at me and looked at me a little exaggeratedly, "God, do you know the value of a soul gem, any smallest soul gem will cost thousands of magic crystals."

And this kind of auction usually seems very dull and boring. ”Between the pages of the magic book I held in my arms was the parchment with the obelisk on it, which, according to the Shaun scholars, was an ancient altar.I casually said, "I just want to see it." ”Noah saw that my attitude was a little resolute, so he had to compromise and say, "Okay, whatever you want, I'll go to Luis and ask for two tickets to the gem auction." ”Then he asked me reluctantly, "Are you sure you don't want to go to the auction for magic pattern construction, or magic weapons and magic leather?"

”I shook my head silently, thinking that since I wanted to participate in the auction, I would have to gather some magic crystals, maybe I could take out the gems obtained from the barbarians, and I wondered how much those Elune Star Diamonds could sell for.Noah didn't give up on his way and started to instill in me how important this auction was, and that if I didn't do something about it, I would have missed such a good opportunity."

You must know that this auction is a grand scale, several auction halls will hold auctions at the same time, you are good at the production of magic scrolls, maybe we can auction a set of magic pattern structure design drawings at the auction, so that you can use this set of design drawings to make a set of primary magic pattern construction, and then register with the magic guild to become an official inscription."

Noah said, he was the first to walk into the magic academy cafeteria next to the library, there were many magic students who came to eat breakfast, and the cafeteria was like a lively market.Noah and I joined the crowd and waited in line to receive the plates.I said to him, "What's so bad about being a master scroll maker?"

”Noah rolled his eyes, and then said, "That being said, after all, the name of the Ming Master is more resounding!"

”I got the dinner plate, asked for a bowl of cereal, a spoonful of cauliflower, a roast sausage and two slices of white bread at the window, and followed Noah to find an empty seat at the long row of wooden tables.At this time, we heard Shirley Newman's clear voice reach our ears through the many noisy sounds, as if someone was whispering softly in our ears, and the unreal feeling full of magic was really uncomfortable.She actually used the Calling Magic Scroll on us, almost knocking over the plate in my hand, and Noah was no better, startled by Shirley Newman's sudden call.We followed the direction from which the sound came from, through the layers of the crowd, and finally saw Shirley Newman and several of her best friends sitting together, raising their arms in front of us, motioning for us to come and sit together, and sure enough, there were two good-looking vacant seats opposite them.At this time, near them, there happened to be a magic student with a plate full of food who wanted to sit down, but was stopped by a girl with black glasses next to Shirley Newman, and quickly put two thick magic books on the seat, which was considered to occupy the seat.When we walked over and put the plate on the long table, Noah handed the two magic books back to the girl with black glasses, and said hello very familiarly, there were two girls next to Shirley Newman, the girl with black glasses was more outgoing, and played a salty joke with Noah, and the other was not so likable, obviously with a princess disease, very arrogant, and only snorted lightly at Noah's greeting, and didn't even want to look at me.It seems that Noah usually eats with them a lot, and they are very familiar with each other.To lighten the mood at the table, Shirley Newman asked me, "Hey, Giga, what are you talking about all the way around?"

”In the Academy of Magic, everyone seems to have different circles, and these small circles are intertwined, and then everyone will find that in fact, this Royal Academy of Magic, which has nearly a thousand magic students, is really not big.Before I could speak, Noah was a fart.

Sitting on the bench next to me, he explained: "We're talking about Jijia becoming a junior master, it's just that this stubborn guy is a little too pedantic, and he wants to learn all the magic talismans by himself, and then learn the structural principles of those magic pattern arrays, and independently design his own magic pattern structure, but few junior masters nowadays do this, only the older generation of magicians will have this special obsession!"

”The girl with the black tortoiseshell glasses joined us directly on the topic, disagreeing with Noah's point of view and unceremoniously retorting: "I don't think so, I think that with my own work, I can be regarded as a real master!"

”While cutting his own meatloaf, Noah looked up and argued to the girl: "Of course you have to have your own work, but I think the Mingshi qualification exam can be more flexible, the current Mingshi qualification exam held by the Magic Guild is completely a formality, and the person with the Mingshi qualification is not necessarily an excellent Mingshi, and some excellent Mingshi are sometimes blocked out of the door of the Mingshi by this invisible threshold, isn't it?"

”Shirley Newman gritted her teeth and said to Noah and the girl with black glasses: "Hey, I'm fed up, can you two not quarrel as soon as you meet, it will make me very uncomfortable, you also have to take care of my feelings, the best girlfriend and boyfriend meet, always needle-to-point, I feel very non-existent, okay!"

”The black-glassed girl shrugged her shoulders, glanced at Noah, and said, "Okay, in order to take care of your emotions, I won't be like your Noah." ”At this time, I heard the girl with black glasses say again: "I heard that the students of our academy Ming Society have been engaged in some collective creation recently, it is said that they want to design a set of magic pattern structures with suit attributes, and the initial structure has been reviewed, and now it has entered the second stage, those members of the Ming Society have begun to design each construction part one by one, and it is said that this set of magic pattern structures will be displayed at the campus summer party before the summer vacation." ”Shirley Newman's other best friend didn't seem to want to have any communication with us, but it didn't prevent her from communicating with the girl with black glasses, so I heard her say: "I heard that the main proposer this time is Senior Yi, if this collective creation is successful, then he will be the most powerful contender for the president of the Ming Academy." ”Maybe Noah was disgusted with her arrogance, maybe Noah was disgusted with Yi, and when he heard the girl talk about Yi, he immediately fired at the arrogant girl and said: "If the Ming Society can't design one or two magic pattern configurations, hehe, what is it called!"

”Shirley Newman was almost about to cry, pulled the sleeve of Noah's magic robe, and whispered, "Noah, can you let me finish breakfast quietly, please!"
