My Magic Age

The stone houses on the outermost side of the house, which had no doors or windows but only fences, were where the lizard slaves lived and belonged to the outer courtyard of the house.

When passing by the stone houses, there was a faint smell of feces and urine. Some skinny little hands grasped the rusty iron fences, and the withered and slender little faces pressed against them, looking out timidly and curiously.

The most eye-catching place in the outer courtyard was the yellow ground that was rammed very solid. Even in the rainy winter, there was no water in the yard.

A sturdy middle-aged man wearing a delicate magic pattern spider silk robe walked out of the gate of the inner courtyard. He was covered with yellow-orange gold ornaments, his skin was a brown-red, his eyebrows were thick, his eyes were bright, and his facial contours looked very three-dimensional. Behind him was a team of lizard warriors and a pair of constructed warriors, making a big show.

The lizard slave girl walked quickly in front to lead the way. When she stood at the gate of the inner courtyard, she whispered a few words to the middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes.

"I am Abraham. May I ask who you are?"

The middle-aged man walked up to me, looked at me warily, and asked.

I took a step forward and said to Abraham, "Ji Jia, I am from the imperial capital. Jonah Adams told me that I could find an experienced guide here, so I took the liberty to come and visit you today."

When Abraham heard that Jonah Adams had introduced him, his expression eased.

Afterwards, Abraham invited us to his inner house. Although he kept a smile on his face, I felt that he was arrogant and wary. The lizard warriors and construct warriors around him were all straight, as if they were ready to fight at any time.

Through a high-walled corridor over 60 meters long, we walked into a tropical garden, which was completely different from the outer courtyard.

A huge fountain was built in the garden with white granite stones. The sculpture in the center of the fountain was a scene of the Green Empire army hunting lizardmen in the wild swamp. The fountain and the swimming pools on both sides seemed to be connected. A dozen women were lying under the tree umbrellas beside the swimming pool, and some lizard slaves were serving beside them.

Various plants were planted in the garden. An unknown umbrella-shaped plant was planted in a giant flowerpot more than one person tall, almost completely blocking the sunlight by the swimming pool. An exquisite building was hidden next to the pool, and the balcony on the second floor of the building was suspended above the pool. The design of this garden can be described as extremely luxurious.

I didn't expect that just a slave trader in Qiyan City would have such a gorgeous courtyard.

We sat on a rattan chair under a tree umbrella. Two pretty maids brought us various fresh fruit plates and fine wine. Abraham sat on a rattan chair, staring at my face, and said to me: "Master Jijia, Jonah Adams and I have been friends for many years. His friends are naturally my friends. When you come to Qiyan City, just ask me if you need me."

Abraham waved his hand, signaling the maids around to withdraw. The two fully armed lizard warriors standing behind him did not move a step.

"But... you said you want to find an experienced jungle guide, so are you going to the Savage Swamp?" He asked me, changing the subject.

The tone and attitude of his speech seemed to show that he was not interested in the nobles and magicians of the Green Empire, or in a border city like Qiyan City, identity is not important, what is important is one's own strength.

I nodded and just said: "That's right."

He took a mango from the fruit plate, savagely tore off the peel, and ate it directly, making a rude "slurp slurp" sound.

He ate and said, "Excuse me, a battle for the throne broke out in the Savage Swamp a year ago. The war has now spread to the border of Qiyan City. Now almost no adventure group is willing to go to the swamp. I know many excellent guides, but at this time, if you want to invite them to the swamp rainforest in the south, you may have to pay a high commission." The maid wiped Abraham's face with a towel. Abraham suddenly handed a mango to me, his eyes full of aggression, with a sneer on his face without any scruples, and asked me rudely, "Do you want to eat it?" I frowned slightly and stared at his dark eyes. A black dagger was inserted into the mango as fast as lightning. Abraham was so scared that he quickly retracted his hand, and a flash of panic flashed in his eyes. Catalina put the dagger with the mango in front of her, and the lizard warriors behind Abraham drew out the scimitars behind them and stared at Catalina as if they were facing a great enemy. Abraham picked up a wine glass, drank the wine in it in one gulp, and calmed himself down.

"... If you just want to take a stroll around the outskirts of Qiyan City, I don't think you need to hire a jungle guide. Now the city is full of unemployed young people. I believe your first impression of Qiyan City should be: the guides here are so enthusiastic! Although they don't have much experience in swamp jungle life, they are very familiar with the surroundings of Qiyan City." After he finished speaking, he smiled.

Then Abraham put away the smile on his face and said solemnly: "No adventure group dares to go to the wild swamp at this time. If it is not necessary, I think you'd better give up this idea of ​​​​suicide."

Perhaps he has been a slave owner for too long, and he has become a little neurotic. After being scared awake by Catalina with a dagger, he also seemed normal.

I said to Abraham: "In fact, I plan to go into the depths of the wild swamp to find an altar. As for the commission issue, if we can reach an agreement on cooperation, we can sit together and have a good talk."

Hearing what I said, Abraham nodded, rubbed his forehead and said:

"That's good. Some of my friends live in the swamp rainforest all year round. They are quite familiar with the lizard tribe there. I will help you find the best guide..."

At this moment, the lizard slave girl guarding the outer courtyard appeared next to Abraham again, bent down in Abraham's ear, and said to him: "Lord Angus is here."

Before she could finish her words, she heard exaggerated and joking laughter coming from the garden, and saw a young nobleman wearing elf-style hollow leather armor striding into the courtyard. He rushed to the edge of the swimming pool and faced A blond beauty lying on a wicker chair jumped towards her. The blonde beauty was so frightened that she fell into the swimming pool with a scream. Then she threw herself onto another wicker chair. The lizard slave girls on both sides tried to stop her. , but was stopped by the guard behind the young noble with a long sword.

All of a sudden, there was a lot of excitement at the swimming pool, and the beauties who were in Abraham's house jumped into the swimming pool to take refuge.

The young nobleman was also very agile. He ran a few steps by the pool and threw the blonde beauty who was lying in the back of the pool into a wicker chair. The blonde beauty could only push the young nobleman away in panic, but was beaten by the young nobleman. He grabbed his hair and pressed it down hard.

"Magic Jijia, sit here now while I go take care of it..."

At this time, Abraham took the lizard warriors around him and walked quickly to the swimming pool. He yelled at the young noble: "Angus, that's enough. Don't mess around with me."

The young nobleman was lying on a wicker chair, holding a blond beauty in cool clothes in his arms. He raised his head and looked at Abraham carelessly, smiling like a ruffian.

The aristocratic young man named Angus said in a mean voice: "Yo yo yo... Does Uncle Abel feel sorry for these beauties?"

Abraham glared at Angus, but did not let the lizard warrior behind him step forward. Instead, he pulled the blonde beauty away with his own hands, and then asked bitterly: "Angus, why don't you enjoy life in your own palace?" , What are you doing here?"

Angus smiled without sincerity: "Look at what you are saying, can't I come visit Uncle Abel if I have nothing to do?"

"You won't." Abraham said firmly.

There are three swimming pools between where they are talking and me. The straight-line distance is probably nearly a hundred meters away, and there are two rows of thick palm trees and umbrella trees in the middle. They can only be vaguely seen. Ordinary people are sitting here. I couldn't hear what they were talking about.

But I am different. My five senses are many times sharper than ordinary people. In addition, I can control my magical perception to detect outside, so their quarrels clearly penetrated my ears. When I heard this, I felt that this was something within the Abraham family. What a shame, every family can't guarantee that there will be such a naughty kid, so I'm not ready to continue listening.

But what the young noble said next made me stunned:

"Sure enough, Uncle Abel understands me. When the members of the Nightingale Team in the family were following a group of fat sheep yesterday, they must have been accidentally discovered by the group of fat sheep. Two nightingales were killed. Jutas then continued An assassination team was sent to sneak into the hotel where the fat sheep lived, but for some unknown reason, the entire assassination team mysteriously disappeared in the Hollyon Hotel without a trace. According to people who went to the hotel to investigate today, there was no sound at all last night. Any movement."

When Angus was lying on the wicker chair and saying this, he tried to lower his voice as much as possible. After all, this was not a glorious thing.

But when I listen...why do I feel like the fat sheep in Angus's mouth are us?

Abraham frowned and asked in a deep voice: "So you have met a second-level powerhouse?"

Angus said nonchalantly: "Youtas also said the same, but the strong men in the family have left Qiyan City for the time being to deal with things outside. There are not many manpower left in Qiyan City. Youtas asked me to come Come here and borrow a team of lizard warriors. It is best that the strength of this team of lizard warriors is infinitely close to that of the second-level warriors. Otherwise, you will really lose a few warriors. Even if we compensate Uncle Abel later, you still need to retrain, right? "

As he spoke, he sat up from the wicker chair and looked at the lizard warrior behind Abraham.

"Why did you brothers make such a big deal? I advise you to stop as soon as possible." Abraham did not give Angus a direct answer, but advised him to stop.

Angus waved his hand impatiently, "Uncle Abel, I didn't come here just to listen to your nagging. Well, my words have been conveyed anyway. You can talk to Jutas about how to do it. I'll tell you how to do it." Go home, so that you won’t be annoyed when you see me..."

He pinched his waist and stood up from the wicker chair. The servant behind him quickly followed up and held up an umbrella for him.

"Angus!" Abraham shouted in a deep voice, his tone full of warning.

Abraham's warning only made Angus even more impatient: "I know, we will pay attention and won't leave any clues..."

Abraham couldn't help but ask: "What happened that caused all your family's elite soldiers to be sent out?"

When Angus saw that Abraham stopped nagging and suddenly asked about this matter, he also said with excitement: "I am a little confused about this matter. You know the Seychelles Adventure Group?"

In his heart, perhaps this matter is just very interesting.

Abraham scolded: "Nonsense, Seychelles can at least be ranked in the top ten adventure groups in Qiyan City. I have met their leaders. There are ten powerful second-level masters with good strength. You don't want to take advantage of them, right?"

Then he looked at Angus with a worried look.

Speaking of this, Angus became even more proud. He waved away the slaves and maids around him and said to Abraham: "Haha, you really underestimated our brothers. Now the Seychelles Adventure Group has long been dead in name only. Yutas personally dealt with all the members of the Seychelles Adventure Group before the Harvest Festival. Unfortunately, I don't know what happened. A magician in their adventure group left the group last year. Unexpectedly, the magician returned to Qiyan City last month and looked for Seychelles everywhere in the city, and even alarmed the Magic Union Law Enforcement Group."

The veins on Abraham's forehead were bulging.

But Angus didn't notice the change in Abraham's expression, and said to himself: "Utas planned to deal with this annoying magician, but he didn't expect that this magician was accompanied by a powerful companion. She also learned some natural magic similar to that mastered by druids. She is very slippery. Our people have been chasing them in the jungle for nearly half a month."

There were many things like fog in my heart, which suddenly became clear in front of me. It turned out that they were chasing Moraya. From what he said, it seemed that Moraya and Heidi were still in the wild swamp.

I suppressed my anger and continued to listen to Angus: "If it weren't for this, we wouldn't have come to Uncle Abel to borrow lizard slaves."

Abraham sighed at this time and said to Angus: "But my lizard slaves are just a group of gladiators. They look brave in the arena, but they are not good at jungle fighting."

Angras obviously didn't believe Abraham's words. He said bluntly: "I don't like to hear you say that. Lizard slaves are not good at jungle fighting? Are you kidding? They are jungle fighting experts from the moment they were born, right?"

Hearing Angus say this, Abraham was speechless and could only say to him: "I will talk to Utas in person about this matter. I have guests here, so I won't entertain you."

Angus and his group left the house in a huff, and I watched Abraham walk around the pool from a distance, and couldn't help squinting my eyes...
