Our group came to the lake and admired the blue surface of the lake, although there was no sun, the lake was still warm.At the heart of the circular valley is a clear lake that looks like a magnificent sapphire glittering in the night sky from afar.There is a long river of gold flowing in the sky.In the surrounding wilderness, the mountains are hidden from each other.The whole forest seemed to cheer at our arrival, and it was a place of tranquility.Looking at the past, only the small island in the middle of the lake stood a World Tree more than 100 meters high, and it was hard to imagine that such a large tree, which required more than a dozen people to hold hands to surround it, was still just a seedling that had not yet grown.Karantso led us along the huge arched stone bridge, across several small lakes, and saw a green wheat field on the shore of the lake, oh, how could that be a wheat field, it was a nursery of magical herbs, which now took over the entire western shore of the lake.There are many different types of primary magic herbs scattered all over the shore of the lake, including hemostatic grass, one-leaf grass, calming flower, kudzu root, etc., these primary magic herbs are covered by the growth of the first lord aura of the World Tree, and the growth cycle is shortened by nearly half.Karantso led us down the arched stone bridge and stood beside a dark green field of magical herbs.Ying Li leaned down and crouched in front of a magic herb, she gently flicked the oval leaves of a magic herb, and the air was filled with a faint bitter medicinal fragrance.She was very fond of the magic herbs in the nursery, picked a leaf, put it under her nose and smelled it, and said to me: "These primary magic herbs should be kudzu, they are the dispensing of the lion king potion" The lion king potion was originally only the most ordinary power potion, and not many people paid attention to it.It wasn't until it was discovered later that the ninth-level warrior apprentices drank this strength potion and had the auxiliary effect of helping them become warriors, that this strength potion was gradually taken seriously, and the price of the lion king potion became higher and higher, and the kudzu root became less and less.The unique environment in which they grow limits the popularity of these magical herbs, and unless they are planted in a magical eco-garden that mimics a specific environment, they are difficult to grow in a normal environment.Ying Li stood up, looked into the distance like a golden field, let out a loud sound, and ran over with a surprised face."
Jijia, is there goldenrod growing in this field?
If the scholars of the Imperial Capital Potions knew that you had actually cultivated the main medicine of the Spirit Potion, I don't know what they would think. ”She exclaimed excitedly as she stretched out her hands to feel the mana contained in the air.With a confused expression, she pulled out a medicine hoe from her magical fanny pack, dug out some moist dirt from the edge of the field, and reached out to gently crush the wet clods, and didn't seem to notice any difference.Ying Li looked around, but still didn't see why, so he asked me: "I didn't expect that there would be such a large herb garden here, this is not a magic ecological garden, how can so many kinds of magic herbs be grown?"
”"The mountains and forests of the Willow Valley were originally very suitable for the growth of those magical herbs, and I still remember when we were studying at the El City War Academy, when we happened to catch the tide of time once in a decade and entered this world together, when the mountains were full of elementary magical herbs.Now with the help of the World Tree, I just chose to open a nursery by the lake, which is probably not unusual!
”I explained to Ying Li."
In the next decade, those magicians in the ivory tower of Sloit City probably won't have the idea that this floating mountain range has a new owner."
Ying Li said with a sigh.Immediately afterward, the expression on her face was a little tangled, and she asked me, "What do you say, what should those magic apprentices who enter here through the portal, especially when they find that this place has become nothing, will they leave in disappointment?"
”Hearing Ying Li say this, I began to think about what kind of mood those young magic apprentices would have when they entered the Xinliu Valley and saw that the mountains and forests were cleaner than a dog licking, and they could no longer find a single magic herb.Just thinking about it makes me feel funny.But when I think about it, I feel a little cruel.When those young magic apprentices were just glad that they could catch up with the once-a-decade tide of time, they could enter the Xinliu Valley through the portal, but when they entered the Xinliu Valley, they found that all the magic herbs in this mountain field had been picked up, I don't know if those young children would be so sad that they cried out loud.I turned my head to look at Karantso, and smiled and quipped at her, "When those apprentices find the orc village by the stream, they will be mistaken for the natives of the Xinliu Valley." ”Karantso stood aside and said, "When the time comes, I will restrain the orcs in the village from harming the young apprentices, unless they do something out of the ord!"
”A delicate pear vortex appeared on Ying Li's face, and her smile was full of demure.I had an idea, half-jokingly, and said to Ying Li, "Maybe we should open a goblin shop at the underground entrance to the tree hole, what do you think those young people will feel when they see a goblin sitting at the counter of the store?"
”Instead of answering my question, Ying Li winked at me, and then continued my topic: "You can put some magic potions in the shop, such as mental power potions or lion king potions or something. ”Helena, who was beside her, poked her head over and interjected, "You can also put some magical materials, such as the fur of the white-spotted saber-toothed tiger, magic red copper, and malachite." ”Becky on the side also said: "You can also put a few primary magic pattern structures and magic scrolls, and the ironwood hard bow is also fine, but it must belong to the specialty of Xinliu Valley" I suddenly thought of a treasure hunt game that I saw many children playing in the streets and alleys of El City, at that time I always liked to stay in the attic, and I didn't experience the joy of that kind of game, I am afraid that except for me, every child in El City will have an experience in childhood.So I said, "Yes, I think we can give them appropriate discounts, such as the first magic apprentice who finds the goblin shop, the magic items are half price, the first warrior apprentice who finds the shop, the magic pattern construction and weapons are half price, when the time comes, I just hope they can bring enough gold coins and magic crystals to see who can be the luckiest person!"
”Caterina stood aside and didn't speak, just looked at me with a smile.Karantso carefully wrote down what I had said, after all, among those of us, she was the true manager of the Xinliu Valley.At this moment a beast girl in a long linen dress straightened up from between the furrows of the nursery, and looked at us with a bewildered expression, with a hoe in one hand and a handful of weeds in the other, her thick hair tied into a ponytail, and her wheat-colored skin glistening in the starlight.Then, her eyes locked on Karantso in the crowd, and she immediately showed a relaxed smile, raised the weeds in her hand, and waved at Karantso with great joy.Karantso didn't seem to bother the manager of the herb garden, but just waved his hand at her, signaling that she didn't have to come over and just work there.Those of us just want to wander around the fields and see this beautiful valley.Subsequently, Ying Li was pleasantly surprised to find a seedling of flame grass and wild steel flower."
Oh, what's over there?
Flame flowers?
There are actually wild steel flowers, I heard that the scholars of Abel University have cultivated some second-level magic herbs in the water ecological garden in the Royal Academy of Magic, but I didn't expect you to have them here!
”She looked at the nursery and said excitedly.I actually want to tell Ying Li that the seeds of these magic herbs were stolen from the medicine garden over there, and forget it after thinking about it, after all, it's not a glorious thing.A multicolored short-tailed pheasant suddenly emerged from a bush, and it panicked through a patch of grass, its slender paws treading the sand, leaving a series of clear footprints.Little Ella got up from the bushes, holding a small bow in her hand, and shot five arrows in one go, but unfortunately they all landed on the sand behind the colorful short-tailed pheasant, and actually shot empty, so angry that little Ella returned her fist fiercely, and probably spit out an orc slang in her mouth, but she didn't make a sound.At this time, the bushes shook again, and Deborah also came out of the bushes, but she looked a little embarrassed, her face was bloodied by something, and there were a few blades of grass in her hair.Her eyes were also fixed on the fast-running multicolored short-tailed pheasant, and she watched in amazement as the pheasant ran across the sand.This is a kind of sand grouse native to the circular valley, with a light body, not only good at running on the sand, but also spreading its wings and flying a distance of nearly 1,000 meters, which is not only rare to see in ordinary times, but also difficult to catch.However, there are also excellent orc hands, which are dedicated to catching this colorful short-tailed pheasant for fun.They like to make headdresses from the tail feathers of this sand grouse, and they also like to make soup with this sand pheasant.According to Little Ella, this multicolored short-tailed pheasant is very tasty.Seeing that the colorful short-tailed pheasant had run to the lake, it did not slow down at all, but continued to accelerate and run.
The legs kicked the ground hard, volleyed into the air, spread their wings and flew towards the opposite side of the lake.Little Ella regretfully put down the bow in her hand and looked at the pheasant that was gradually flying away with a disappointed expression."
Ella, I want chicken.""
But it flew away and couldn't catch it!""
I'll catch it," Deborah said, reaching out and tearing off the gray magic apprentice robe on her body, the wings hidden in the robe spread out at once, one wing was white feathered wings, the other was black and gray fleshy wings, and the two wings were distinct.And her delicate and innocent white face with her bewitching sex.
The body of the sense also showed a sharp contrast, but her eyes showed wildness at this time, like a harrier eagle with wings spread high, she bit her lip, staring at the colorful short-tailed pheasant that flew away, her wings shook violently, and a whirlwind blew out of thin air.As we all watched in amazement, Deborah spread her wings and flew up, flapping her wings into a virtual shadow to chase the multicolored short-tailed pheasant flying over the lake, so fast that I couldn't see how often she flapped her wings.Ying Li looked at me in surprise, and was speechless for a while.Little Ella also covered her mouth and glared at Deborah who was sweeping across the lake with round eyes.Only Caterina was on the sidelines and complimented me, "Oh, she's flying so fast!"
”"She's a harpy?"
Karantso asked me suspiciously, probably only the orcs living on the Pai Plateau would know about the harpy banshees on the Night Wolf Cliff.And Ying Li asked me nervously: "No, this is a succubus, Ji Jia, you raise a demon pet, have you reported it to the magic union?"
”The Imperial people hate these low-level demons no less than the Dark Arts Hermitage that is deeply hidden in Grimm, and after discovering the traces of the demons, they will dispatch the law enforcement team of the Magic Guild, and those enforcers are composed of elite magicians in the previous magic academies, and they will carry out a series of investigations into these demon creatures.The reason why Ying Li was nervous was also because he was worried that I would be entangled by those law enforcement officers, and once I was entangled and interrogated, then things would become very troublesome."
She was originally a harpy with royal blood, and she became like this after she was rescued by Sinderji University, and she was registered with the Academy of Magic."
I briefly told everyone about Deborah's tortuous origins.Little Ella pointed to Deborah's flying posture in the distance and said loudly, "She caught it, Deborah caught that short-tailed pheasant!"
”Ying Li and I sat on the grass by the lake, quietly looking at the sparkling lake.Not far away on the beach, little Ella and Deborah were roasting the short-tailed pheasant, puffs of green smoke wafting up, and the smell of roasted bird feathers was still in the air.Ying Li pointed to the lakeside forest and said, "It's so beautiful and quiet here. ”Her eyes became clear, and she looked at me with a smile: "I'm going to build a small cabin over there, and I'll stay there for a while, and then I'll send someone to inform you when you get to Vasqui." ”"Okay, I'll ask Karantso to arrange some orcs to help you build a beautiful wooden house!"
I say.Unexpectedly, Ying Li refused.She said to me, "Becky and Helena and I can do it ourselves. ”I hesitated, considering whether to persuade her to return to the imperial capital, and my eyes chased after hers.Ying Li dodged my gaze, a little hesitant.In the end, I couldn't help it, and said to me in a bit of a panic: "Don't persuade me, you know, I don't want to refuse you, but I want to be quiet, we both need a little space between Manda and me, we also need a little time, we both need to calm down." ”Her eyes looked at the lake in the distance and she said to me, "She always thought she could give me the best, and in her eyes those good things were what I needed the most, but she never asked me what I thought." ”Then, she said weakly: "James himself said to me, he promised me, I can freely choose my own life" I think, this is probably what she has always insisted on in her heart
