I took out an opened bottle of golden cider from the wine cabinet in Lyant, uncorked it, removed two more glasses from the wine cabinet, poured the golden liquor into the glass, and said to Arendt, "It's nothing. ”Our glasses collided in the air and clanged.After taking a sip of the slightly sour golden cider, I said, "Arendt!
”"What?"
Arendt looked at me."
I must be kind to Tracy in the future, although she is usually a little short-tempered, she is not an unreasonable person, if it is really something wrong with her, then please accommodate her."
I said to Arendt.Turning her head to look at Tracy, who was huddled on the couch with everyone, she seemed to be in a good mood lately."
I will."
Arendt said.After a while, he said again: "I've always heard other eagle teams talk about you, but I didn't expect you to be so powerful." ”I smiled noncommittally, and said to Arendt, "It also happened that we met a large group of barbarians who were about to rush through a pass, and we were well prepared before the hunt, and gathered a group of men to guard it, and killed many barbarians. ”Arendt's eyes were full of curiosity, and he said to me, "That's a left ear full of magic chests of barbarians!"
Jijia, how exactly did you do that?
Even if all the knights of the Knights of the Guard Battalion in El City poured out, they would not be able to capture so many barbarians. ”"Do you really want to know?"
I smiled and asked him."
Is that okay?
If it's convenient to say, of course, I swear I'll keep it a secret. ”Arendt said excitedly."
This doesn't need to be kept secret, if more people know, maybe we can directly block these barbarians on the north bank of the Galloping Horse River next year."
I said to Arendt.After saying that, I got up from the high chair, beckoned to Arendt and said, "Follow me" and "Where are you two going?"
”Tracy sat on the couch and saw us walking outside the outhouse, and leaned over to ask me."
Arendt wants to know how we hunt the barbarians, so I'll go to the courtyard with him and show him my secret weapon."
I said to Tracy."
Jijia, you are so hateful, you never told me this, and you never said it when I asked you!"
When Tracy heard me say this, she immediately raised her eyebrows and grumbled at me with great dissatisfaction.I spread my hands, shrugged my shoulders at Tracy and said, "It's the dean of Stans College who won't let you join the Eagle Squad, and I can't help it!"
”Tracy was angry and silent."
You're eagles?"
Horace heard this conversation between me and Tracy and said to Tracy and me with a look of surprise."
I'm not, only Jijia and Ruka are, and they go out hunting in the countryside every winter."
Tracy pointed at me, and she was quick to talk when she lost her temper."
But isn't Jiga a magician?
When will magicians also go out hunting barbarians in winter?
”Horace asked, confused.He probably couldn't understand what a magician could do in the Eagle Squad.It follows that the cities in the southern part of the province of Sloitt did not have much experience defending against the barbarians.For a long time, very few barbarians would go there, and probably Nato City was the farthest the barbarians had touched, and even more so Lanham City, which was at the southernmost point of the Sloit province, and they probably didn't have many eagle squads there."
The Eagle Squad here in El City is popular to set magic traps with some magic scrolls, and each Eagle Squad usually has a magician with the group."
Tracy popularized common sense to the public.Uncle Horace put on a skeptical expression, but Gabrie, who was on the side, said with great interest, "Can I go with you to the courtyard to have a look?"
”I glanced at Gabry, who was eager to take the plunge, and said, "Of course." ”I walked out into the courtyard with Arendt and Gabrie, and Ying Li followed, as the bed crossbow pieces were stored in her magical fanny pack.Ying Li took the parts of the bed crossbow out of his magic belt bag and placed them neatly on the yellow lawn, where there were no orc warriors and female dwarves, so he had to assemble them himself, and I asked Ruka to come and help.Although the minotaur was a little clumsy about these delicate installations, he was a tall man, and with his help, I quickly set up a bed crossbow in the yard.Seeing a well-made military bed crossbow set up in the yard, Arendt was extremely surprised, he didn't expect that I would have this kind of army to have heavy weapons, and Arendt asked me, "Where did you buy this bed crossbow?"
”"On the Hiero plane."
I replied.Arendt and Gabrie leaned closer, looked at the thick bow of the bed crossbow, and gently stroked the copper winch with their hands.Arendt asked me, "In the wilderness, do you hunt barbarians with bed crossbows?"
”I said to Arendt, "How is that possible!
Such a bulky big guy, there is no mobility, and it is so cumbersome to disassemble and assemble once, of course, it is impossible to snipe a barbarian, and it is necessary to install a bed crossbow, I said that this is my secret weapon, and it will not be used under normal circumstances, only occasionally it will be used, and usually hunting barbarians still has to use ice magic traps. ”"Your eagles in El City are really amazing, you can even get this kind of armament."
Gabry looked at the bed crossbow and said to me with a look of envy.I said, "Isn't it a plane war?"
On the Tanton side, a lot of discarded bed crossbows were thrown on the side of the road like garbage, and I just bought a few that seemed to be usable, and after some tinkering after buying them, they became what they are now. ”Gabbey looked at the bed crossbow and said, "I see, no wonder this bed crossbow doesn't have an axle base!"
”While we were watching the bed crossbow on the lawn in the courtyard, a group of knights poured into the alley outside.Three luxurious magic caravans stopped at my door one after another, and the compartments of the three black magic caravans actually displayed the insignia of three different families, and I recognized the family crest of the magic caravan driving in the front, and the family crest on the magic caravan was the emblem of Benjamin's senior's family.Our group was looking out of the courtyard when we saw Senior Benjamin leading the group into the courtyard.Walking side by side with Benjamin were two middle-aged nobles, one of whom was wearing a black dress, with gray hair and an angular face.
He wears a dark gold medallion on the front, and this level of medal means that he is a marquis of high status.The other is burly, although he is wearing a light leather armor, he is covered with a faint murderous aura, and he has a knight's long sword hanging from his waist.
With the count's noble medal hanging in front of him, he is like an unsheathed sword wherever he stands, making it impossible to ignore him.I said hello to Senior Benjamin: "Senior Benjamin, why are you here?"
”Senior Benjamin smiled at me and introduced to the noble Marquis, "Lord Bertie, this is my junior brother Jijia, and it is his eagle squad stationed at the pass of Lake Beran to block the barbarians advancing south. ”I looked at these two nobles, maybe I had seen a lot of nobles in the imperial capital, even the duke had seen several of them, so when I faced the Marquis of Bertie, I didn't feel any pressure in my heart, and I looked at them without fear.Hearing Senior Benjamin introduce me like this, I had some ideas in my heart.At this time, I heard Senior Benjamin say to me: "Giga, these two are Marquis Bertie, the consul of Lanham City, and Aemond, the head of the Knights of the Guard Battalion, and they have come back this time to meet you. ”As I expected, it was the same group from Ranum.Probably after receiving the news from Senior Benjamin, he immediately rushed over to see me.The Marquis named Bertie stepped forward, took my hand warmly, and said to me, "Young magician, thank you and your Eagle Squad for all that you have done to Lanham City, and for finally finding you warriors. ”Seeing me dazed, he formally introduced himself to me: "Hello, I'm Bertie from Lanham City. ”"Hello, Lady Bertie, hello, Lord Aemond!"
I turned to the side and said to the two.The eyes of the Marquis of Bertie and the head of the regiment fell on the bed crossbow in the courtyard, and the head of the regiment Aemond pointed to the bed crossbow and asked me, "You used this kind of bed crossbow without a pedestal to guard Lake Beran at that time?"
”"Well, it's these bed crossbows, but it's more than that."
I replied.Captain Aemond approached to take a closer look, and when he saw the rivets on the joints of the bed crossbow, he exclaimed, "The bed crossbow can still be disassembled and assembled like this!"
These structures are cleverly designed, but then again, this kind of bed crossbow is not as convenient as the bed crossbow that can be pulled around by a horse-drawn carriage. ”I explained: "Those bed crossbows with wheels are considered munitions, and they cannot be purchased without a warrant signed by Charles the Great, and these bed crossbows are all I picked up from the scrap market." ”The Marquis of Bertie and the head of Aemond looked at each other before they said to me, "We've come all the way, won't the Wizard Giga invite us in and sit down?"
”I hurriedly invited them into the house to sit down and said, "I'm sorry, it's a family gathering today, and the house is a little messy." ”At this time, Aunt Basha's cousin Gabrie stood aside, stood upright in front of Captain Aemond, saluted a knight, and stumbled and said, "Your Excellency Commander Aemond, salute!"

”Captain Aemond thought for a moment before calling out Gabry's cousin's name: "Gabry, why are you here?"
”Gabby looked a little excited, and he replied seriously, "We're in El City for my cousin Tracy's wedding. ”There was a slight fluctuation in El Mond's eyes, and he said to Gabbri, "Oh?
Are you related to the Wizard Jiga?
”Cousin Gabriel looked a little restrained in front of Commander Aemond, and his words seemed a little hurried, and he said, "Well, yes, Master of the Regiment!
He was my cousin. ”Captain Aemond glanced up at Cousin Gabriel and said in a rough voice, "Horace never told me that he had such a great relative in the city of El Eyre. ”"My father happened to be a guest at my uncle's house," Gabbrey said. ”Marquis Bertie laughed and said to Aemond: "No wonder His Excellency Wizard Giga will help Ranham City when it is in danger, it turns out that there are relatives living in Ranham City. ”At this time, Ryant, who was sitting in the house, saw a guest coming from the courtyard and hurriedly walked out of the house.I introduced Ryant to the Marquis of Bertie and Head Aemond.Ryan knew Benjamin's seniors, and although he didn't understand why the two rulers of Lanham City were visiting, he warmly invited them into the house.Aunt Barsha was now lobbying Fanny about the benefits of a commoner girl marrying into a noble family.Aunt Basha's gaze fell on Cindy from time to time, and Cindy just sat obediently on the sidelines, her eyes slipping out of the window.Uncle Horace sat on the sofa in a big way, not thinking about standing up to greet the new guests, probably assuming that Rryant's friends were civilians and that he didn't need to stand up to greet them.Until he heard a familiar voice greet him."
Horace, Horace!
Is that you?
”Head Aemond stood in the doorway, shouting to Uncle Horace in the living room.At this time, Uncle Horace turned his head to look at the door with a puzzled expression, and saw the Marquis of Bertie and the head of the regiment Aemond standing there, looking at him with a smile on their faces.Uncle Horace wiped his eyes vigorously and found that this was not a hallucination, so he quickly got up from the sofa, saluted the Marquis of Bertie and Captain Aemond at the door of the house, and said, "Why are the consuls and the captains here, is there some emergency in Lanham City?"
”"Haha, Horace, it's all this time, do you still want to hide it from us?"
Arch Aemond strode toward Uncle Horace, speaking loudly as he went.Aunt Basha's family watched in surprise as Captain Aemond and Marquis Bertie walked in, but they looked at each other with a blank expression."
You're being kept in the dark?"
Captain Aemond saw the expressions of Aunt Basha's family, and he didn't know that this matter had not been made public within the family."
What's going on?"
Uncle Horace asked Aemond with a strange expression."
Didn't you say before that you must meet the eagle warriors who helped us defend the pass of Lake Belan, how did you not even notice when they stood in front of you!"
Head Aemond frowned and said to Uncle Horace."
Captain, do you mean that the warriors who helped us defend the pass of Lake Belan are these people from Jijia?"
Horace asked, pointing at me."
Horace, you're right!"
With that, Head Aemond sat down beside Uncle Horace, casually surveying the layout of the living room in the small three-story attic.The Marquis of Bertie and Captain Aemond did not stay at my house for long, but only re-inquired about the situation of the pass at that time, and confirmed that it was really done by my eagle squad, and then they thanked our family and left with a group of henchmen.Watching those luxurious carriages slowly leave, I thought they would give us some gifts from Lanham City, but I didn't expect to receive any gifts.At the ensuing dinner, Aunt Bartha's family fell completely silent, and they probably had some difficulty accepting the fact that Marquis Bertie and Head Aemond would actually visit the house in person, perhaps because there was no way to continue to put on a high posture in front of Ryan and Fanny, which made them a little unaccustomed to it.I saw that the battle for the defense of the Belan Lake Pass was made public, so I had to tell the battle in general detail, of course, the battle scene was slightly reduced by me, since it was all in the past, let's make the process easier, so that Leant and Fanny have to worry about me.After the dinner, Aunt Basha's family did not linger any longer, they hired a magic caravan to return to the hotel in the dark night.The next morning, Aunt Basha and her family returned to Ranham City in a magic caravan, and our family went to the city gate to see off Aunt Basha and her family.Before leaving, Aunt Barsha did not forget to tell Fanny how good her cousin Gabrie was, how good the life of the nobles was, and how she and Uncle Horace would consider it if Fanny wanted to marry Cindy to Gabriel.But looking at Cindy's expression, you can know that Cousin Gabriel probably doesn't have much to do.Noah and I booked tickets for the airship, and at noon, Noah and I boarded the magic airship bound for the imperial capital
