My Magic Age
Chapter 1136 239. Quartermaster of the South Wind Legion 2
The sunlight coming in through the glass window is still dazzling, but it has lost its original temperature. The light shines on my hand, revealing a tilted shape on the magic parchment. I keep turning the magic pen between my fingers. The rune teacher on the podium leaves clear lines of text on the blackboard, but those familiar runes can no longer arouse any interest in me. I think the runes I draw are even more standard than the teacher on the stage.
During my time in the Yekis Scholar Magic Laboratory, I came into contact with a large number of uncommon magic runes. Now the magic rune class for the first year of the Royal Magic Academy is nothing new to me.
Yesterday, when I took Ying Li and others to visit Xinliu Valley, Becky suggested that I go to the South Wind Corps as a quartermaster. I thought about it again and again and rejected this proposal. I promised Duke Jingyue. Ellie that after graduation, I would return to the northern province of Sloyte and join the North Wind Corps, so I will not join the South Wind Corps as a quartermaster.
The bell for the end of get out of class at the Royal School of Magic always seems so long and melodious. Noah and I walked out of the classroom and walked along the spiral staircase to the steps outside the teaching building. The bell for the end of get out of class still echoed in the campus. Today is the free opening day of the five-department ecological park of the Royal School of Magic. Many magic students went to the ecological park to meditate. As the end of this semester approaches, every magic student hopes to improve their magic level. Therefore, no matter where you are during this period, you can see magic students meditating on magic gathering cushions.
After my magic level reached level eight, my magic practice did not stop. If I hadn't deliberately suppressed the magic power in my body, I'm afraid I would have broken through to level nine. At this time, scholar Sean told me to stop for a while and let the magic power in my body become more condensed, which would be of great help to my future magic practice.
Noah knew that I would not go to the water ecological park, so he asked me during the break: "I asked Shirley to find a place in the fire ecological park. Do you want to experience what it feels like to practice water magic in a place full of fire elements?"
What good taste can I feel in that ecological park full of volcanic rocks and sulfur? Shaking my head, I smiled and refused Noah, saying: "I will go to the fire ecological park to occupy your fire magician resources. Do you think I have nothing to do?"
Noah did not argue, but just laughed.
Noah and I walked out talking and laughing. Several male magic students in the class who were very familiar with Noah also gathered around Noah. After discussing about practicing meditation in the fire ecological park, we went to the Advanced Swordsman Academy to invite some beautiful girls and then find a high-end restaurant for dinner together.
Noah said to me in the crowd: "Ji Jia, you have been in the Royal Magic Academy for so long, you probably have never participated in this kind of social gathering! Do you want to experience it with us?"
I know that the magic students of the Royal Magic Academy often hold such social gatherings, and they can always make appointments with beautiful girls from the Swordsman Academy. Those young ladies from noble families also hope to meet a young and excellent magician. After all, the magicians who graduated from the Royal Magic Academy have always had a good reputation. Maybe they will fall in love with a girl at first sight at the social gathering and enjoy a romantic love.
I had no interest in this, so I shrugged my shoulders to Noah and said, "You know how busy I am. I have too many things to prepare recently. Let's do it next time!"
"Don't always use the same excuse to prevaricate me!" Noah protested to me, "I know you are busy, but don't you think there should be some other fun in your life? It's easy to lose friends like this."
I said to him, "Aren't you my friend? That's not enough!"
"I can't do anything about you." Noah patted his forehead hard, as if he remembered something, and then said to me, "I heard that those people in the Inscription Society are preparing inscription works to participate in the Winter Inscription Exhibition. Do you want to participate too?"
Scholar Yekis mentioned this to me, and now I hear Noah is also talking about it. It seems that the Winter Inscription Exhibition is quite grand in the imperial capital.
So I nodded and said, "Well, Yekis scholar is going to participate. If I have time, I will go with him."
As we were talking, the two of us had already walked down the stone steps with the others. The fountain opposite was already filled with thick snow. I don't know who had built a snowman on the side, which looked very cute. But in my opinion, shouldn't the Royal School of Magic have some snow sculptures that are more suitable for the identity of magicians?
I was thinking about whether to turn the snow in the fountain into a group of huge sculptures, maybe showing the scene of the North Knights fighting with the barbarians, or shaping it into a scene of the Spider Warlord on the Yello plane fighting with the Asian dragon above the clouds, or simply making a bow of a sea ship riding the wind and waves. I should be able to easily turn the snow into waves.
Then I heard my classmates shouting, "Hey, look, the noble lady with a sword on her waist is really a beautiful girl. She should be a girl from the Advanced Swordsman Academy. How come I have never seen her before! I want to say hello to her, maybe I can invite her to our dinner tonight."
A magic student named Allen pulled his magic robe nervously and whispered to his companions, "Hey! Hey! Hey! Stop talking, and quickly adjust your collar. She is coming towards us."
The magic student who spoke earlier took two steps forward, unwilling to lag behind, and whispered: "It's agreed, we want to compete fairly!"
Noah, who was standing in the crowd at the back, put his hand on his side, laughed 'haha' and said, "Save it now! Her name is Helena, and she is here to find Jijia. You have been discussing how to marry her all day long. What will happen to you, the daughter of Prince James? Don’t tell you that you don’t even know Princess Yingli, the daughter of Prince James!”
The two magic students in front stopped quickly. The magic student named Allen looked very regretful and said: "Ah! I should have thought of it earlier. She is the female companion of Princess Yingli. I am in the magic newspaper I should have recognized her immediately if I saw her before.”
The magic student who spoke before said: "Why do I want to meet a princess from the Angel Bald royal family..."
Noah said to the two of them in an embellished voice: "If you really think so, maybe I have some ideas. I heard that as long as you join the royal court magic troupe after graduation, you will have the right to live in the Floating King City. At that time, it was not easy to meet a royal princess, but are you sure you want to do this? "
When the two magic students heard what Noah said, they became a little hesitant and said hurriedly: "Let us think about it carefully."
Helena wore a set of tight-fitting spiked crystal lion leather armor, with a crimson sword hanging on her slender waist. She walked past the crowd and walked in front of me. She ignored the eyes of others around me and held my arm affectionately as if no one else was watching. Arm, said sweetly to me: "Jijia, your time in the afternoon has been requisitioned by us, do you have any objections?"
With that said, he pulled me out of the crowd, and I had no choice but to wave goodbye to Noah.
Noah saw Ying Li coming to see me at the Royal Academy of Magic. Knowing that I probably wouldn't have lunch with him, he took the initiative and said to me, "Then I'm going to find Shirley Newman!"
I turned my back to him and raised my hands above my head again to show that I understood.
At this time, I could still vaguely hear Allen's voice behind me quietly saying to everyone: "Look, in fact, if you want to sleep with a princess from the Angel Bould royal family, the price you need to pay is Losing precious freedom and going to work for the royal court magic group, think about it, giving up the entire forest and the most precious freedom for a big tree, it’s a lot of sacrifice.”
"You have to pay some price, right? Such beautiful noble ladies are really rare in the imperial capital!"
"Stop talking nonsense..."
…
Walking from the square of the Royal Academy of Magic to the entrance of the academy, Helena kept holding my arm. With her stunning beauty, she attracted the attention of countless magic students. Yingli accompanied me on the other side and sent them back to Prince James last night. When we were at the lakeside castle, they didn't say they were coming to the college to find me at noon today, so I was a little surprised when I saw the three of them at the entrance of the teaching building.
Catalina walked out of nowhere. She put on an 'Earth Shield' magic pattern structure and an imperial squid battle armor skirt over the Yalong tight-fitting leather armor. This outfit had a strong tribal style. Coupled with her ruby-like eyes, the aura exuding from her body can already make people feel a slight sense of oppression. She seems to have been promoted again recently.
Katarina said that her recent level improvement is probably related to the primary magic pattern structure I tattooed on her wrists and ankles. The two magic effects of 'Weakness Detection' and 'Wind Rush' made Katarina Na has benefited a lot. The energy-gathering magic pattern continuously absorbs mana into Katarina's body. Her body always maintains the magical state of 'Wind Speed' and 'Weakness Detection'. This means that two The primary magic pattern structure further strengthened her body, allowing her to feel new power.
Helena looked at the magic lines on Catalina's wrist with some envy, pursed her red lips, and said nothing.
Ying Li stood beside me and said to me gently: 'If you have time in the afternoon, I will take you to meet someone. ’
I smiled, pinched her cheeks that were a little red from the cold, and said to her, 'Okay. ’
After getting on the magic caravan, Helena spoke for Li, and I realized that this time she was going to take me to see Count Donald Raleigh, in order to support the continuous production of my magic engraving machine workshop in Xinliu Valley. Magic crossbow, after Ying Li returned to the Prince James Manor last night, he still mentioned this matter to Prince James privately.
When it comes to the secrets related to the magic engraving machine, Ying Li didn't tell me. He only said that I have a batch of black iron arrowheads suitable for bed crossbows. The quality and workmanship of the arrowheads are very fine. Ask the South Wind Legion to which Prince James belongs. Has the Logistics Department’s next procurement plan been decided? If it hasn’t been decided yet, is it possible for the Military Department and the Logistics Department to coordinate and purchase a batch of the black iron arrowheads I have under the same quality and price conditions? .
In fact, it goes without saying that I know that Prince James definitely doesn’t like his daughter getting involved in military affairs. Just out of his love for Ying Li, he still promised to give me a chance. He wanted us to meet Donald, the chief officer of the logistics department of the South Wind Army. Raleigh, as long as we can convince Earl Donald, then he has the right to decide whether to buy my crossbow black iron arrowhead.
Speaking of which, for every magic crossbow arrow I get, I have to produce 24 failed products. These failed magic crossbow arrows are just because they cannot be engraved with magic patterns before they are recast. However, these failed products after the magic patterns are still high-quality ordinary crossbow arrows, just as sharp and heavy, but with some dark patterns on the tip.
I want to make more magic crossbow arrows, which will derive a large number of ordinary crossbow arrows with dark patterns. These black iron arrows are all purchased from North Duisburg. The base number of these ordinary arrows is huge. If they are given to barbarian slaves to consume on the battlefield, they will only accumulate more and more. If these failed products are thrown into the furnace for recasting, it is obviously a waste.
Becky's idea is to sell these arrows with dark patterns as ordinary crossbow arrows, so that I can make up for the loss.
Unexpectedly, the first big buyer that Ying Li helped me contact was actually his father, Prince James.
…
Haiyinsi City is a city on the sea, but this does not mean that the city is built on an island. Hundreds of thousands of stone pillars rise from the seabed a hundred meters deep and are ten meters above the sea. Craftsmen built exquisite buildings on these stone pillars and connected these buildings with bridge-like streets to build Haiyinsi City, which is envied by the elf world.
The Naga Sea Clan in the Endless Sea regards this city of the Green Empire as a provocation to the sea clan. Every time a Naga Sea King is born, in order to establish the supreme power in the sea clan, he will order some Naga Sea Clan lords who threaten the throne to lead their troops to attack Haiyinsi City. Therefore, every time a new king of the Naga Sea Clan is born, there will be a protracted naval battle.
After hundreds of years of painstaking management, the Nanfeng Legion stationed in Haiyinsi City built a nearly 100-kilometer-long sea levee outside Haiyinsi City. This sea levee is the first line of defense of the Nanfeng Legion of the Green Empire against the Naga Sea Clan army.
The South Wind Corps has nearly one million troops in Haiyinsi City. It is said that there are a total of 38 constructed knights under Prince James, as well as a fleet of nearly 100 five-masted sailing ships and a floating giant ship. The entire sea is filled with crossbows, catapults, and spear guns. In the past 20 years, Haiyinsi City has become increasingly prosperous under the management of Prince James, especially in the past 10 years. As a trade port with the sea people, countless merchants have flocked to Haiyinsi City, which has brought a huge amount of tax revenue to Haiyinsi City. The South Wind Corps has also benefited a lot from this huge amount of tax revenue, the most obvious of which is that all kinds of armaments have been completely renewed.
The huge economic benefits have made the Logistics Department of the South Wind Corps the most complicated department among many military departments. The three chief officers of the Logistics Department are Jacob Roger, Donald Rowley, and Chris Angelbold.
Among the three chief officers, Chris represents the interests of His Majesty Charles, Jacob is elected by the great lords of many planes in the Green Empire, and Donald is a confidant promoted by Prince James. This Earl Donald is a native of Haiyinsi City. What Prince James appreciates most about him is that in his heart, the interests of Haiyinsi City are above everything else.
These three logistics chief officers are in charge of the expenses of the millions of soldiers of the South Wind Legion, and Prince James asked us to visit Earl Donald Raleigh, which is also very meaningful. On the one hand, he hopes to help us, and on the other hand, he does not want any problems with the crossbow arrows in our hands, after all, they are more important military supplies.
…
Earl Donald Raleigh’s temporary residence in the imperial capital is located in the west of the third block. It is a three-story villa with an independent courtyard. It is not too far from the Royal Magic Academy. This villa is a bit like the house Helena rented for me, clean and comfortable.
Perhaps Prince James had greeted Earl Donald, and Earl Donald Raleigh was not surprised at all by our visit. When we got off the carriage, we saw an old man with gray hair sitting on a bench under the eaves at the door of the villa, carefully looking at an account book. Ying Li whispered to me that he was Earl Donald Raleigh.
Earl Donald looked very similar to Felix in some ways. He was wearing a neat military uniform, with a soldier's determination on his face and a rock-hard look in his eyes. You could tell at a glance that he was the kind of person who would hardly change his decision once he made it.
He raised his head as if he had sensed something, and happened to see me and Ying Li standing at the door.
When he saw Ying Li, he was a little dazed, and his lips trembled slightly. Because of my magical perception, my five senses were extremely sharp, and even the slightest movement could not escape my eyes. I felt that when he saw Ying Li, there was always an indescribable emotion in his eyes.
"I am honored to have you, Princess!" Earl Donald said, with one hand flat on his chest, bowing to Ying Li, and then nodded to me.
Ying Li stood at the door, holding the hem of her long skirt with one hand, and bowed slightly to Earl Donald in return.
Earl Donald invited us into the house. After we sat down, the cook brought hot tea and some exquisite snacks. There was no polite talk. After we sat down, we directly explained our purpose to Earl Donald. Earl Donald was silent for a moment, and then asked me: "Do you have samples of crossbow arrowheads?"
I took out a box of black iron arrowheads with magic patterns printed on them from my magic belt bag. The magic pattern array on these black iron arrowheads failed. The tips of the crossbow arrows were slightly blackened, without any luster, and upon closer inspection, they would appear. It was found that there was a layer of dark lines on the surface of the arrow tip.
He casually took out a black iron arrowhead from the wooden box. Count Donald weighed the arrowhead in his hand and asked me with some surprise: "Are these arrowheads mixed with magic black iron?"
Seeing me nodding, he picked up the arrow again, put it to his mouth and bit it, then asked me: "Since it is a hard black iron arrowhead, the quality is not a problem, but...it is necessary to engrave these fancy words on the arrowhead." Is it a pattern? Not only is this flashy, but it will also increase the cost of manufacturing crossbow arrows. But can you guarantee that the arrows sold to the logistics department are of this quality? "
Ying Li and I looked at each other, nodded together, and said, "We promise."
Earl Donald said to me in a deep voice: "Because this is related to the safety of the soldiers on the sea, so I have to say some unpleasant words in front of me. Don't mix inferior arrows into it, even just once. I We will also kick you out of the supplier ranks!”
I nodded to show that I understood.
His eyes softened slightly and he said to me: "Then let's talk about the price. Although your black iron arrows are very beautifully made, I won't do it because your crossbow arrows have beautiful dark patterns. And for spending one more copper plate, I can only buy this kind of black iron arrowhead at the same price as ordinary black iron arrowheads..."
