My Magic Age

The Trom camp looked so messy in the drizzle. Huge granite stones formed the rough outline of the camp. In addition to a row of wooden granaries built in the center of the camp, there were some marching horses built with rawhide around. The tent and a bonfire were burning in the drizzle, with a light vapor steaming around them.

A group of barbarians were digging trenches outside the camp. The rain fell on their slightly pale muscled skin, revealing a porcelain white light. Their bodies were covered with black and blue tattoos, like clumps of weeds. , they carried black and shiny pickaxes and shovels in their hands, standing in the trench filled with mud and water and working hard.

There are several large wooden cages like huts stored in the corner of the camp. Each cage contains a giant spider. They are huge and huddled in the cage, trembling in the rain. There are two giant spider legs. It was chopped off by its roots and lay lifeless in a wooden cage like a rice dumpling. If you hadn't seen its ten frightened eyeballs still moving around, you might have thought these two giant spiders were there. Already dead.

Some leftover hard shells of spider legs were thrown messily next to the fire. At this time, there was a large black iron pot next to the fire. Most of the pot of oatmeal inside seemed to have gone cold, and the rain kept falling. 's fell inside.

Captain Dick followed Justus and remained as calm as he should have.

The members of the adventure group tremblingly followed Captain Dick into Camp Trum. They looked at the barbarians walking around in the camp, and even their breathing became much lighter.

Cassandra was at the back of the team. Although she looked very nervous, her eyes shone with a calm and wise light. She carefully paid attention to each barbarian slave and found this group of barbarian slaves. They turned a blind eye to the adventure group members entering the camp, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

She reached out and touched Gubo Laima's head, comforting her mount.

"These barbarian slaves don't seem to be hostile to us, but we can't let down our vigilance. If there is a fight later, you must follow me and don't run away!" Cassandra told me and Katarina whispered.

"Okay, got it!" I agreed readily.

She glanced at the Shura ax hanging on my horse, frowned slightly and said: "Your body looks so thin, and you are not suitable for holding heavy and blunt weapons such as axes. If you have the opportunity, you can switch to weapons such as long swords and scimitars. It will be easier when escaping."

"I quite like using an axe." I whispered to Cassandra.

Cassandra glanced at me, with a hint of displeasure in her light blue eyes.

She stretched out a finger, tapped my forehead from a distance, and said harshly to me: "Don't always be so willful, you will hurt your sister."

Hearing Cassandra say this, I shrugged my shoulders indifferently.

Catalina was standing aside, half of her face was hidden under her hood, and I could clearly see her sexy lips curved into a slight arc.

The dwarf Bernd's camp is next to a granary. He built a temporary shelter outside the tent. There is a set of tables and chairs under the shelter. He is sitting on the chair safely. Two strong barbarians The slaves were divided into left and right sides.

Justus pretended to step forward and communicated with the dwarf Bernd. I stood at the back of the team and could not hear what they said specifically. They seemed to be discussing the transaction price. Cassandra looked at the pile of The huge granary full of sacks said to Catalina: "Katrina, do you think their granaries are filled with grain?"

Catalina looked at the tauren Luka who was sleeping in the shack not far away, and whispered to Cassandra: "That should be it!"

Cassandra looked at the granaries with some eagerness, and said with emotion: "I have long heard that after the Trum stronghold was captured by the spider people, a batch of military supplies was hidden by an old quartermaster. In the cave behind Trum stronghold, but rumors also say that when the Duke of Samoyed led the army to move around Tanton City, he had already taken out the batch of military supplies. I didn't expect that there was still so much food left. ”

"No matter what, as long as these grains are moved to Tanton City, the food crisis in Tanton City will be relieved!" Cassandra licked her lips and said to Catalina and me.

"Cassandra, Cassandra, Captain Dick is calling you over!" A member of the adventure group standing under the awning shouted to the back of the team.

Cassandra was chatting with us in a low voice. When she heard someone calling him, she immediately agreed: "I'll come right away!"

Then she put the horse's reins into my hands and said solemnly to me: "Keep an eye on it for me. Don't let it run around. Be careful of being eaten by those barbarians."

After saying that, Cassandra stepped on the muddy water and ran to the front.

Captain Dick of the adventure group purchased food from the dwarf leader Bernd at Camp Trum.

The transaction process went very smoothly. The price of grain was set by Bernd and I in advance. Each silver coin can be exchanged for ten pounds of wheat. If the members of the adventure group can successfully transport the wheat back to Tanton City, the profit can be doubled by five. times, such huge profits are already rare for the Seven Trees Adventure Group.

Each ancient Bolai horse carried two bags of wheat on its back. Because they were worried that the wheat would be soaked by the rain, the sacks were covered with a piece of hard cowhide to protect them from the rain. Cassandra stood in the shelter and used charcoal to Write down a series of numbers on each sack and record them one by one on the parchment book.

The gray sky seemed to have been leaked, and the rain kept falling.

Most members of the adventure group were soaked in the rain. They gathered around the campfire to warm themselves up, but were frightened by the hard carapace of spiders on the ground. They quickly led their ancient Bo Lai horses and stood in line waiting in the rain.

It wasn't until they received their share of food from the awning that they led the Gubolai horses out of the Trum camp one after another.

The members of the adventure group would rather stand under the trees outside the camp and soak in the rain than wait inside the camp.

Cassandra was recording the accounts of food collection in the rain shelter from beginning to end. Finally, it was Caterina and I’s turn to lead the ancient Bolai horse up and saw us standing in the rain wearing raincoats and looking embarrassed. Bernd always had an expression that made him want to laugh, but the embarrassing scene of laughter never happened.

In the end, Cassandra saw the two barbarian slaves guarding Bernd. They personally helped Caterina and I tie the sacks to the ancient Bolai horses we were holding, and stood aside holding the account book. Laughing, he whispered to Catalina: "I have always heard that the barbarians in the Northern Province are very ferocious and even eat people when they are hungry. Why do they feel a little different to me? What about their rumored ferocious appearance? "

I stood in the awning, smiled at Cassandra and said, "Maybe they have been slaves for too long, and their ferocious nature has been slowly tamed!"

Cassandra glared at me without any appreciation, took the reins of the ancient Bolai horse from Catalina's hand, handed it into my hands, and said to me with a straight face: "Hand your horse well..."

"..."

The dwarf Bernd and the barbarian slave next to him looked at Cassandra with strange expressions. The young swordswoman Bena unconsciously picked up the account book in her hand and made heavy notes on it with a quill. Last two strokes...

After all the team members received the food, Captain Dick paid a sum of silver coins to Bernd.

Afterwards, Catalina and I followed the Seven Trees Adventure Group and left Trurum Camp and embarked on our way back to Tanton City.

The Niburu spider people were driven out of the Trum area by Bernd and the barbarian slave army, and the beasts in the jungle were also hunted down by the Niburu spider people. The birds in the jungle took shelter when it rained. Entering the Bird's Nest, there was almost no ghost to be seen along the way from Tanton City to Trum Camp.

On the way here, the members of the adventure group still looked worried, but on the way back, the atmosphere seemed much more relaxed. The members of the adventure group talked about the adventure in low voices while being soaked in the rain. They originally thought that the journey would be a little dangerous. But I didn't expect that it was so peaceful along the way that it felt incredible.

Unconsciously, we walked out of the jungle in the drizzle and arrived at a large grassland south of Tanton City. The outline of Tanton City gradually became clear in the rain.

Captain Dick put his arm around Justus' shoulders, his expression of pleasure could not be concealed.

The members of the adventure group started to look for Cassandra one after another. Only then did they bother to ask about the situation of the wheat in the sack. For a while, they were entangled and it was difficult to escape.

Catalina and I led the Gubolai horse and fell at the end of the team. Looking at the joyful scene in the team, Catalina asked me: "Do we still want to accompany them for another walk?"

I shook my head and said, "I don't have that much time to spend here! We will return to the Imperial Capital later."

Catalina asked worriedly: "Has the power of thunder and lightning in your body recovered?"

"If it's just the two of us, there'll be no problem." I looked up at the rain in the sky, smiled at Catalina and said, "Don't forget, this rainy day is also my home court."

"There are only fifty people in the grain transport team. I don't know when the wheat will be transported to Tanton City!" Catalina said with some worry.

I said to Catalina: "Look! Only fifty people came this time, and the number of people should be almost twice as much on the next trip. After all, it is a huge profit of five times, and if they set off next time, if they are smart , we should hire some magic caravans.”

After entering the city, Captain Dick wanted to invite us to the black market to sell the grain at a high price.

I politely declined, and Justus knew that I was about to leave the Hierro plane with Catalina, so he ran over to say goodbye to me.

I took the opportunity to tell Justus to find a way to expand the size of the grain transport team so that the price of grain in Tanton City can be reduced.

In addition, he also needs to find a way to hire some civilians in the city who cannot afford food and let them work as laborers in the Trum camp. However, there is no need to be too urgent. At this time, even if those civilians starve to death in the city, they probably won't. If they dare to go out of the city to work, let them first watch the food transport team go back and forth between Trum Camp and Tanton City several times, let them see that the outside of the city is not as dangerous as they thought, and they can probably eliminate their inner fears. .

I also asked Justus to tell Bernd not to lead the Barbarian Slave Chapter out of the aura of the Ancient War Tree. Below is the invincible battle group.

Afterwards, he took Gubolama and Catalina away from the adventure group and returned to Mr. Billy's hotel.

We led the horses to Mr. Billy's hotel. Mr. Billy recognized me from the hotel. He ran out from the front desk, pushed open the door of the hotel himself, and told the young waiter to lead my and Catalina's Guberai horses to the backyard. Mr. Billy's third young wife came over with two dry towels and asked us to wipe the rain off our faces.

Mr. Billy scolded the young wife there: "What are you still wiping! After being in the rain for so long, you should go upstairs and take a hot bath! Hurry up and take Wizard Jijia and Catalina upstairs to the room where they usually live!"

I waved to Mr. Billy, indicating that he didn't need to rush to open the room. I asked the young waiter in the hotel to help me unload the food on the horse's back, and then threw a silver coin to the young waiter, asking him to take good care of the two Guberai horses of Catalina and me. It would be best to build a fire in the stable to dry the wet hair of the two Guberai horses.

At this time, the fat cook in the hotel also ran out to help, and then carried four sacks of wheat into the hotel.

I stepped on the sack, took out a sharp peeling knife and poked a hole in the sack, and the wheat in the sack flowed out like quicksand.

Mr. Billy squatted in front of the sack, his eyes widened, stretched out his hand to take a handful of wheat, then picked up a few grains and put them into his mouth to chew for a few times, his eyes suddenly became extremely bright, and his eyes fell on the four sacks again, and he said in surprise: "These sacks are full of wheat? Wizard Jijia, where did you get these grains from?"

"From the Trum Camp outside the city." I replied.

Seeing the golden wheat flowing all over the ground, the fat cook rushed into the kitchen and took out a wooden basin. When she ran, her fat body trembled up and down. She knelt on the floor and carefully collected the wheat that had fallen on the ground into the wooden basin.

I took back my foot from the sack in dismay, pointed at the four bags of wheat on the floor of the hall, and said to Mr. Billy: "Mr. Billy, we don't need these bags of wheat. I thought about it and wondered if Mr. Billy was interested in buying them. If so, I'll sell them to you at a discount."

Mr. Billy's expression was as if he was hit by happiness and surprise. He quickly said to me: "Of course I want it. I don't know when the next magic airship to transport supplies will come from Pereira, and I am also worried about tomorrow's breakfast. I didn't expect you to bring four bags of wheat back to the hotel. I..."

I said to Mr. Billy: "You don't have to pay me silver coins. These wheats will serve as our room fee for the time being. Catalina and I got caught in a little rain on the way. We want to have a good sleep when we go upstairs. If we need to eat, we will come downstairs by ourselves, so please don't disturb me for the time being!"

After that, I took Catalina and dragged the wet defensive cloak up the stairs on the side of the hotel.

Mr. Billy held the handrail at the entrance of the stairs, leaned forward, and said to me who was climbing the stairs with great flattery: "Then please have a good rest. I promise that not even a mouse can pass through the door of your room!"
