My Magic Age

A bartender holds a wine bottle with a thin neck and a round belly, and slowly pours amber-colored liquid into the wine glasses. The mellow aroma of the wine fills the air, stimulating the sense of smell of the drinkers in the room. Everyone All eyes were focused on the waiter.

The waiter waiting aside picked up the tray, walked back and forth in the hall, and distributed goblets filled with wine to the magicians.

This is a salon organized by water magicians. Scholar Sean notified me more than half a month ago to prepare for a speech. I am one of the speakers at this salon gathering.

Being able to be a speaker at a salon party shows that the speaker is recognized to a certain extent in the circle of water magicians. This has now evolved into a qualification. The water magician who speaks the most often at gatherings Only then can he be considered a veteran of this party.

According to past practice, magicians who gave speeches at salon gatherings were required to prepare a bottle of wine and bring it to the salon gathering to share with other water magicians.

I specially brought a bottle of golden cider for this purpose, but this bottle of golden cider is slightly different from other cider. This bottle of Zimmermann golden cider has been stored for fifteen years, and the wine has become A slightly viscous amber in color, this golden cider has not only been stored in caves underground in the Sin Willow Valley for nearly five years, but it also spent nearly six years in the cellars of the Zimmerman Estate.

A month ago, I moved the first batch of golden cider to the magic herb plantation in the heart of the unknown island mountain for storage...

The hillside of the Nameless Island happens to be a rare time node, where the flow of time is nearly eighty times faster than the normal flow of time. This kind of place is not only suitable for growing magic herbs, but can also be used to store fine wine. The bottle of golden apple cider at the salon party had been stored in the magic herb plantation on the unknown island for nearly a month. Unexpectedly, the wine turned into amber color.

The magicians held goblets of golden cider and sipped the fragrant golden cider while gathering around the long and narrow blackboard in the hall and carefully looking at the five new water magic runes on the blackboard.

Everyone gathered around and discussed. The water magicians had different opinions on how to draw these five water runes. For the mysterious magic runes, the magicians could interpret different meanings, and even some The magician has been imitating these new water rune boards on the edge of the blackboard and asked me some questions based on the runes.

I don’t know much about the arrangement of these rune element matrices. I can only answer questions related to the drawing method. This lecture on the new runes lasted for a long time before it was over. Only magicians like Yerkes Scholars , will become interested in the matrix arrangement of elements within the runes. Most magicians just want to know how to apply these water runes.

Standing in front of the blackboard, I quickly drew minimalist magic threads on my chest with my fingers. Those light blue magic threads automatically weaved into a mysterious magic circle as if they were alive, surrounding me. The surrounding water magicians held their breaths and stared at me with wide eyes as I drew the water runes, not knowing how I used the magic power.

They don't know that this is actually an ability of the orc tribe's spell weavers. They can use the complex magic pattern array to extremely simplify the way of drawing magic runes through the understanding of the elements. Those magic lines are like being drawn by a pair of dexterous Invisible hands weave a complex magic array, this is the true meaning of the spell weaver.

A water magician squeezed in the front row couldn't help but ask: "Magic Jijia, how did you do it?"

I rubbed my nose and replied: "Well, maybe it's because of the affinity of the water element, or maybe it's because I drew too many magic patterns. I can't describe this feeling..."

After the speech, I stood in the crowd wearing a brand new magic robe. Some young water magicians attending the salon gathered together and said to a young water magician with a smile: "Gali, I didn't listen to you last time. Say, are you ready to go to the north to see the snow? "

The magicians around laughed. The water magician known as Gali pushed up his glasses with a stunned look on his face and replied: "I do have such a travel plan, and I did seek the consent of my family and mentor. , but when I took action, I encountered firm opposition from my friends. In order to avoid hurting my friends, I could only slow down my travel plan and wait until the weather gets warmer before going to the north. "

"Your heartbroken friend is actually the lover from Queen Street! Gali..." The water magician who just asked me the question smiled particularly exaggeratedly. Everyone likes to have some small talk with Gali. He also has a carefree personality and never cares about these little jokes. He is very popular among this group of young water magicians.

A middle-aged magician sat on the armrest of the sofa and said with a smile: "When spring comes, those barbarians on the ice and snow tundra will probably go home."

I just received a letter from Count Desmond a few days ago. The letter said that the North Wind Army was preparing for a big battle. This time Duke Jingyue was preparing to drive the barbarians to the north bank of the Galloping Horse River in one fell swoop. It could be seen that Desmond Count Mondstadt was full of confidence in this battle. In order to support Duke Jingyue in this war against the barbarians, I supported her with a whole ship of dual-attribute giant crossbows.

Among this batch of giant crossbow arrows, in addition to the more normal giant crossbow arrows with the two magical effects of "penetration" and "sharpness", there are also two boxes of freezing arrows and explosive arrows. These two types of magic giant crossbow arrows are single-attribute arrows, but the engraved magic is no longer primary magic, but upgraded to secondary magic. The freezing arrows are engraved with the secondary magic skill "Quick Freeze", and the explosive arrows are engraved with the secondary magic skill "Explosive Flame".

I said to the magicians around me: "Maybe it won't take that long... But speaking of it, the ice and snow in the North in spring are just beginning to melt, and the southeast trade winds are reviving all things on that fertile land. It's still worth a visit."

After listening to my description of the beautiful scenery of the Northern Province, many magicians were yearning for it. Gali even sighed:

"It is said that only warriors who have experienced the wind and snow in the North can become true Sloyte warriors!"

The water magician standing next to him quickly joked:

"Gali, I'm afraid you will never become a true warrior."

"What's the matter, I'm a water magician!" Gali said nonchalantly: "I went to the North to travel just to taste the golden apple wine produced there, but today I tasted the wine brought by Jijia, and I know what the real golden apple wine is, so it doesn't make much sense for me to go to the Northern Province..."

There was another burst of laughter around.

Of course, the taste of the bottle of golden apple wine I brought is quite good. The years of precipitation give it a mellow taste and the same texture as gold.

A water magician who was going to give a speech at the next salon complained to me with a bitter face that I shouldn't have brought out such a bottle of wine to share with everyone, so he didn't know what wine he should bring to the next party.

This is probably the last water magician salon I attended in the imperial capital this winter. I took some time to carefully explain the five new ways of drawing water runes to these water magicians. I believe that after listening to my speech, they will have more or less new insights into these runes.

"Are you ready?" Scholar Sean asked me, he knew I was preparing for the trip to Qiyan.

Leaning against the window, looking at the lights outside the castle, I turned my head and said:

"Well, I'll leave on the same day after the exam, and the magic airship tickets have been booked."

Scholar Sean asked me: "It will take at least half a month for the magic airship to fly from the imperial capital to Qiyan City!"

The winter vacation at the Royal Magic Academy is only more than two months. If I take the magic airship, it means that I will spend nearly a month on the journey to Qiyan City. Even though the magic airship ticket is many times cheaper than the cost of going through the portal, traveling between the two places through the portal is still the preferred way for many nobles.

I explained to Scholar Sean: "We arrived at Haiyinsi City through the Imperial Capital Teleportation Hall, where there happened to be a magic airship flying to Qiyan City. There is a strong wind belt between Haiyinsi City and Qiyan City, and it only takes a week to reach Qiyan City by magic airship."

I insisted on taking the magic airship to Qiyan City, in fact, I hope that when the magic airship enters the territory of Qiyan Province, I can observe the landforms around Qiyan City from the airship. After all, we came to Qiyan City rashly and wanted to organize an adventure group to go deep into the Savage Swamp, especially recently, the Savage Swamp has been in constant war. At this time, it is even more necessary to understand the landform characteristics there in detail.

Although the situation around Qiyan City is very different from that of the Savage Swamp, at least some of the growing vegetation should be similar.

Scholar Sean patted my shoulder and said to me: "Remember to write to me when you get there..."

I nodded.

...

The afternoon sun made people drowsy. Ying Li and I sat in the magic caravan heading to the lakeside manor, enjoying the rare quiet time in the afternoon.

Helena had just finished the final exam of the Advanced Swordsman Academy. She had been promoted to a ‘sword dancer’ and naturally passed the practical exam and ability test smoothly. However, for some theoretical tests, she did need to intensively study. Many combat rules that needed to be memorized could only be truly understood on the battlefield. Now they did not need to fully understand them, but required the swordsmen to memorize them completely, so Helena stayed up all night last night.

After completing the theoretical exam in the morning, Helena got into the magic caravan. Once she relaxed and felt tired, she fell asleep beside me.

Becky sat on the soft leather sofa opposite. There was a map of Qiyan Province on the wooden table in the carriage. She was taking some notes seriously. There was also a book about the customs and customs of Qiyan City on the table. It can be seen that they were all actively preparing for the trip to Qiyan City.

The magic caravan drove out of Yulin Street and turned onto Lakeside Avenue. The entire surface of Weiyang Lake was covered with a thick layer of snow.

The dock was also covered with a thick layer of snow. The boatmen seemed to be enjoying the long winter vacation, and the entire dock looked particularly depressed.

"Le Die has been asking me about her winter vacation plans recently. Maybe she heard some news and plans to go to Qiyan City with us." Ying Li put down the teacup in her hand and said softly, her eyes fell on the ginkgo tree that was constantly flying backwards outside the window.

"Ignore her. It's impossible to take her to Qiyan City this time." I said directly without thinking.

Ying Li exhaled lightly and said, "Well, since it's decided, I'll tell her later."

Since Prince James has decided to train Le Die to become the future commander of the South Wind Legion, this kind of adventure has been completely cut off from her. If Prince James knows that Le Die went to Qiyan City for adventure, I guess I will be the one to take the blame in the end, so I decided to dispel this idea in Le Die's mind from the budding state

A team of parallel construct knights passed by us. Looking at their gorgeous costumes, even the armor on the war horses was embroidered with gold threads. The two construct knights carrying flags in the front, one holding the flag of the construct knights, and the other holding the flag of the Babington family. It seems that this is the Babington family's construct knight honor guard.

Before I could see clearly what the attributes of the magic pattern constructs on those knights were, I saw a convoy of magic caravans of the Babington family passing in front of us. Because there were construct knights on both sides of the convoy, they occupied most of the road. Our magic caravan could only lean on the side of the road and wait for them to pass completely.

But I don't understand what important activities they would have in this winter that would require such a large-scale convoy.

Ying Li and I leaned our heads against the window, watching the magic caravans passing by one after another, each with suitcases piled up behind it.

I asked Ying Li: "Why are there so many gifts in the car? Are the Babingtons moving?"

As soon as I said this, a light bulb went off in my head. This direction of the Lakeside Continent leads to the northern pass of Mount Mazzaro. So...

"They are preparing to leave the imperial capital!" Ying Li and I blurted out at the same time.

I didn't expect that after the victory of the Ahn'Qirajdo plane, the Babington family's situation would become even more difficult.

The Babington family not only lost the three mithril mines in the Ahn'Qirado plane, but also Billy Babington's business plan for the market of primary rune plates was completely thwarted. In addition, when the Imperial Capital Council distributed the fruits of the victory in the Ahn'Qirado plane war, Billy Babington also offended the forces formed by the small lords of the Imperial Capital with his rude words, and the reputation of the Babington family in the Imperial Capital plummeted.

I think they chose to leave the Imperial Capital at this time because they couldn't make it in the Imperial Capital, so this group of families returned to San Carlos City.

A gorgeous magic caravan passed in front of me, and I saw Duke Billy Babington sitting in the carriage, looking at the Weiyang Lake outside the window with gloomy eyes...
