My Magic Age

Chapter 675 175. Gambling outside Pereira City

On the night before departure, almost half of the accompanying followers quietly left the manor of the Grand Duke of Samoyed in the suburbs of Pereira.

According to the training team route map published by the academy, they entered the dangerous Black Forest in advance and explored the unpredictable dangers ahead. There are many monsters below level 2 in this Black Forest, which are the main targets of our training expedition. However, in the deeper part of the forest, there are also some more dangerous level 3 monsters. According to the route planned by the academy, our training teams can try to avoid the areas where level 3 monsters often appear, but we cannot rule out those accidents. Some powerful level 3 monsters are still quite dangerous to our training teams.

So many followers entered the Black Forest in advance after learning about the expedition route map, wanting to hunt those extremely dangerous monsters in advance or drive them away from the established route.

In the Royal Magic Academy, many magic students are talents that are cultivated by some wealthy families. These people will create greater value for the family in the next few decades, so their safety issues are the top priority in the training activities. I can feel that the two followers that Noah accompanied are very powerful.

Kalancuo and Minotaur Luka also disappeared in the team of followers last night. However, no one knows that they did not enter the dangerous black forest, but directly returned to Xinliu Valley through the portal I opened. Kalancuo is going back to the underground cave and continue to lead the orc warriors to clean up the goblin tribes. I am worried that Minotaur Luka will venture into this mountain forest alone, so I also drove him back to the underground cave.

Let Kalancuo and Minotaur Luka follow me across the portal to enter the Yero plane so that they will not appear so abrupt when I need them to appear.

Following the path indicated on the map, we just reached the edge of the forest. The logging site in the distance has entered our field of vision. According to the direction indicated on the map, we have to pass through the forest area of ​​the logging site, follow the river valley on the edge of the forest, and walk into this black forest full of unknown dangers.

Originally, the initial members of our training team were Qi Ge and her best friend Lucia, and five students who performed very well in Qi Ge's magic potion class, plus me, and two young magic students who wanted to pursue Lucia. The two seniors had very prominent family backgrounds. They successfully joined our training team through the influence of their families in the academy, which made Lucia seem helpless.

However, it is said that the noble sons who pursued Lucia in recent years can stand around the Weiyang Lake in the imperial capital. The heart of this half-elf beauty has long been tempered to be as solid as iron.

On the first day of arriving at the manor in Pereira City, something unexpected happened. The five students suddenly changed their minds and withdrew from our training team, which directly led to a serious shortage of members in our team. The four members of the Dragon Club and Ledie became members of our team.

Coming out of the manor of the Grand Duke of Samoyed in Pereira City, the team moved forward silently in a subtle atmosphere.

William, Ledie and their friends always fell behind the team. The members of the Dragon Club formed a special independent group in the team, which was incompatible with our training team. There was even no communication between everyone. On the contrary, the two seniors who pursued Lucia took the initiative to approach the members of the Dragon Club, but they were embarrassed by a few indifferent words from them.

I walked at the front of the team, feeling like a thorn in my back. William's eyes were always wandering around me, making me feel uncomfortable all over, especially the dragon next to Ledie, who looked at me with anger, as if he wanted to eat me alive.

Although Qi Ge's delicate face maintained a faint smile, her nose was probably crooked by anger. The lizard maid Takama became cautious, fearing that Qi Ge's anger would spread to her.

Lucia followed Qi Ge quietly, and the two suitors followed her diligently, racking their brains to make their sweetheart smile, but they didn't know how Lucia could smile now.

On one side was her close friend Qi Ge, and on the other side was her cousin Le Die. Lucia knew very well that Qi Ge didn't want Le Die to stay in the training team, but Qi Ge couldn't say it out loud, because Le Die was also the sister of Prince Wales. The complicated relationship here was difficult to sort out for a while. The training journey that was originally like a relaxing trip suddenly became extremely troubled because of the appearance of the Dragon Society. Seeing the look in her close friend's eyes, Lucia could only sigh faintly.

As for another member of the Dragon Club, he was patiently explaining some knowledge about magic to the new members of their club.

Before entering the Black Forest, the Dragon Club President, who was wearing a red magic robe and a large magic cone hat on his head, came to Lucia and told her that he wanted to take a break.

The team members had just walked out of the manor not long ago, and the physical strength of the team members was still sufficient. At this time, the Dragon Club President proposed that the whole team take a break, which was not so appropriate. Lucia had the right to reject the Dragon Club President's proposal.

Lucia was a little hesitant. She glanced at Qige and saw that Qige turned around deliberately without giving her any hint. Lucia, who likes to take things easy, could only nod in agreement and said: "Okay, then Just take a short break.”

I suddenly discovered that the presidents of two major societies appeared in this training team at the same time.

The president of the Dragon Club had a mysterious identity, but she was also the first club of the Royal Academy of Magic. She made a suggestion to Lucia, and Lucia naturally had to consider it carefully.

Lucia is the president of the Sword and Rose Society. In terms of influence in the Royal Academy of Magic, the president of the Dragon Society is worse than Lucia. After all, the Sword and Rose Society has a large number of members.

When two people appear in a team at the same time, they are faced with one thing: who can get the say in the training team. Because the teacher who leads the team is Qige, Lucia becomes the captain of the training team without hesitation.

It was under this circumstance that the presidents of the two clubs collided for the first time before entering the Black Forest. There was no such thing as a winner or a loser, but the subtle atmosphere gradually made this training team Some subtle changes occurred in the hearts of the members.

Our training team found some clean tree stumps on the edge of the lumber camp, and everyone sat down to rest.

I found the leader of the Dragon Club sitting on a tree stump, with her legs together and leaning to one side. She straightened her waist and had a curve that only a woman would have. I saw her raise her hands and put the head on her head. The soft hood was taken off, and a bunch of long chestnut hair looked like It fell down like a waterfall, revealing a fair face under the hood. It couldn't be said to be very beautiful, but there was a kind of confidence and wisdom in the slender eyes. There was a faint smile on the corner of the diamond-shaped mouth, and he turned his head and said lightly. He glanced at Qige.

For a long time, the extremely mysterious president of the Dragon Society turned out to be a woman. I have never heard anyone talk about this in the Royal Academy of Magic. It seems that few people really know her identity. The look on her face A polite, ladylike smile emerged.

"Qige, I have a suggestion. It would be too boring for you and me to travel through this dark forest where there is no danger. We might as well do something interesting." The president of the Dragon Society smiled. Speaking to Qige, although the outline of her entire face looked too sharp, she exuded the aura of a powerful magician, which gave her another kind of flamboyant beauty.

Qige squinted her eyes, like a white fox curled up in the north wind. There was a charm in her voice: "Adele, what do you want to say?"

I didn't expect that the tone of the conversation between Qi Ge and Adele, the president of the Dragon Club, was completely devoid of the respect between teachers and students. Moreover, the two of them should be very familiar with each other. As soon as they opened their mouths, they were filled with the smell of gunpowder.

A hint of provocation emerged from the corner of Adele's mouth: "How about we have a competition!"

Qige raised her crooked eyebrows: "Competition?"

Adele, the president of the Dragon Club, explained: "I am here with all the members of our Dragon Club. There are four members in total, plus Ledie, there are exactly five people."

She looked at Lucia and the two aristocratic teenagers, and finally her eyes fell on me, and continued to say to Qige: "You, Lucia, and her club members together happen to be Five people.”

Adele continued: "On the way from here to Tanton City, we will compete to see whose team has harvested more magic materials. We will let the material quartermaster of the Tanton City Logistics Department determine the value of the magic materials. , He who gains more will win.”

Qi Ge asked calmly: "What benefits does the winner get? In other words, what price will I pay for this?"

Adele finally showed her fox tail, smiled proudly, and said, "If I win, I will dance the first dance with Wells at the Golden Harvest Festival in the fall!"

Then, she continued to challenge Qige and said: "If you win, you can also make a request to me, as long as I can fulfill it! Of course, if you don't have the guts, forget it, everyone knows the areas you are better at. It's magic potion, field experience, survival and hunting monsters. They are not your strengths in the first place, so just pretend I didn't say anything."

Qige immediately counterattacked casually: "If I win, haha, I don't need you to do anything. Why don't you teach him a dragon language magic! Of course, if you don't have the guts, forget it. Everyone knows those old guys in your family. Regard these dragon language magics as the lifeblood of your family, and convincing others is not your strong point. If you can't do it, just pretend I didn't say anything."

Obviously, Adele did not expect Qige to make such a request, her face changed, and she responded loudly: "You... are crazy, dragon language magic, do you think that anyone can learn it? Does he have dragon blood talent?"

Then he looked at me doubtfully and said: "If he has dragon blood, then he can join our dragon society. As long as he has enough comprehension ability, he can learn the dragon language magic in those magic secret books at will. But if he is just an ordinary A magician, what do you want him to use to learn dragon language magic? Even if I teach him, how can he learn it?"

Qige showed a sly smile: "Of course you don't have to worry about whether he can learn it or not. I only need you to teach him for three days. Any dragon language magic in the magic books in your home will do. Do you dare? "

Adele, the president of the Dragon Society, bit her lip and made an immediate decision: "It's a deal! This training trip will last for one month. If you fail to arrive at Trum City after the deadline, you will give up the competition!"

Qige smiled even more proudly: "I will take Jijia and go to your house to find you in person!"

Adele curled her lips and said tit for tat: "How could I give you this opportunity? I can't help but think about it now. I was the one who saw Emperor Charles and those members of the royal family dancing the first dance with Wells." , what kind of expression will it look like?”

Before the two teams separated, they suddenly heard Qige say to Adele: "In the past few days, it has been raining near Pereira City, and the road in the Black Forest will become difficult. In the Black Forest, Be careful!"

Adele smiled reluctantly, with a little bitterness in her smile, her voice became much softer, and she said sincerely to Qige: "If you encounter danger, remember to send me a flare!"

Ever since, our ten-person training team was divided into two groups under such circumstances.

The president of the Dragon Society, Adele, led the members of the Dragon Society to leave first. Le Die led the dragon and walked at the back. When no one was paying attention, he made a beheading motion on my snow-white neck with his hand. , with provocative eyes, followed the members of the Dragon Society as they left the lumberyard area.

Sometimes it's really hard to figure out what those women are thinking...

Takama, Qige's lizard-human maid, stood on the top of a tall tree and looked into the distance, guiding us in the direction.

Our team of six people entered this dark forest from the edge of the lumber camp.

It had just rained heavily, and the road looked very muddy. The leaf mold soil formed by the accumulation of fallen pine needles and leaves was so soft that long leather boots could sink almost half a foot deep if I stepped on it. I was most worried that it was caused by the accumulation of rotten leaves. The natural trap formed by the rotten leaf soil will swallow the whole person instantly once one falls into it.

I walked in front with a long dagger and walked forward close to the edge of the bushes. From time to time, I cut off the branches covered with thorns that grew out of the bushes. The soil here was covered with intricate roots of those bushes. The roots have a firm grip, the soil on the ground is not so soft, and it is safer to open a way out.

If that Black Magic Priory assassin knew that I used his long dagger as a woodcutter and his short dagger as a meat cleaver, I wonder if he would be so angry that he crawled out of hell.

Qige followed me closely. She gave up her Kalemian magic robe and instead wore a set of spiked crystal lion leather armor. Her tight-fitting leather pants were stuffed into long leather boots, and her injury belt was Wearing a pair of deerskin long gloves can completely avoid the thorns in the bushes. Wearing a magician's conical hat on the head, the leather armor on the body can greatly prevent the thorns from scratching the skin. Sometimes the silk fabric on the body can also It will be covered with thorns and jujube thorns, which will be very troublesome to clean up.

Pass under this tall redwood tree, step on the roots covered with slippery moss, and cross a sinkhole filled with red nematodes.

Including the maid Takama, the six of us have completely entered the black forest.

A golden pheasant with a red crown and a long tail flew out of the forest. It made a series of "gurgling" calls, flapped its wings in a panic, and quickly flew into the depths of the dense forest. In the light shining through the gaps in the dense canopy of trees, I could still vaguely see the colorful tail feathers of the golden pheasant.

I took out the long-barreled thorium shotgun, squatted on the spot, and aimed the sight at the head of the golden pheasant. Just as I was about to trigger the trigger, a slender hand pressed on the firing pin of the shotgun. I looked up and saw Lucy. Ya looked pleading, a little embarrassed to beg me: "Jijia, let's not kill that bird, okay? It's not a monster, and killing it won't help us win the bet."

"But, I think it could be our dinner," I said to Lucia.

"I prefer eating fish and fruits to those cute birds!" Lucia smiled awkwardly at me.

The elf beauty has an extremely sweet smile, and her skin is as smooth and delicate as white jade. A ray of sunlight shines through the forest on her pointed ears, reflecting the tiny cyan blood vessels, which makes me feel inexplicably unreal.

I was stunned for a moment before replying: "Okay..."

Before I could finish my words, I suddenly heard the mournful cry of a golden pheasant.

Lucia and I quickly looked at the green-feathered golden pheasant. We saw Qige holding the long neck of the golden pheasant with a proud look on her face and happily running back from a distance. There was still an arrow stuck in it, and the maid Takama followed Qige quietly with a jungle hunting bow in her hand.

Qige walked in front of me and casually dropped the golden pheasant whose body was still twitching in front of me. Like a greedy little cat, she completely ignored Lucia beside me and asked me for my permission very seriously. Opinion: "Jijia, let's grill it?"
