My Magic Age

This lake surrounded by mountains is located at a high altitude. Standing on a huge rock in the valley, you can see thick smoke billowing from the jungle in the distance, floating far above the gray clouds and merging with those gray clouds.

It seems that the fire last night burned all night in the spider camp, but the area with thick smoke is not too large, and it seems that the fire has not spread. It is only in the area of ​​the spider camp. It is probably because it is the rainy season in the Yelo plane. It just rained a few days ago. The jungle is very humid, and the dense branches and leaves contain a lot of moisture. The fire did not burn.

I walked at the front of the team, Kalancuo carried Ledie on his back and walked in the middle of the team, and the tauren Luka carried a huge dragon egg behind him to cover the rear.

We walked through the black forest along the valley and walked downstream along the stream. We didn’t meet many spider warriors who came out to patrol along the way.

But I always encountered some giant spiders escaping from the spider camp. Some of them fled to the stream in panic, and some fell into the sand beside the stream. These huge spiders could only crawl forward little by little on the sand. The eight spider legs scratched the fine river sand on both sides like oars, dragging their heavy bodies forward, leaving a deep groove on the sand.

When encountering these giant spiders, Luka would rush up without hesitation, directly chop off the eight spider legs of the giant spider with the dark half-moon axe, and then call me to help. At this time, Kalancuo would carry Ledie and continue to move forward, deliberately avoiding me and the tauren Luka, because I was going to open the portal and let the orc warriors inside drag these big guys into the underground cave.

Occasionally, we would encounter a lone Spider Warrior. If they were fleeing in a panic and didn't notice our whereabouts, we would try to avoid them. If we happened to meet them face to face, we would usually ask Luka to stand at the front of the team to contain the Spider Warrior, and then I would secretly cast a spell from behind. Some Spider Warriors who were not very alert or were blindly arrogant would be unconsciously asleep by my "hypnosis" and then let us deal with them.

These Spider Warriors had some burns on their bodies, and it was obvious that they had escaped from the Spider Camp. Once these Spider Warriors became deserters, it would be difficult for them to return to the barracks. When hunting such Spider Warriors, there was no need to worry about their backup. If there was a chance to hunt them, we would not hesitate to do it. After all, Luka and Kalancuo were there. If we met a lone Spider Warrior, he would only wait to die.

These elite Spider Warriors who escaped from the Spider Camp had black magic crystals in their skulls, and they also had a weapon made of magic black iron. It would be a big profit to hunt one casually.

The only downside is that these giant weapons are still a bit too big for the orc warriors, but the tauren Luka is very easy to use.

…

On the back of the boulder by the stream, unfold a scroll of fire gathering, light a bonfire, cook some beef soup, string some wheat cakes into strings, and bake them on the bonfire until they are burnt yellow. Such scones are burnt and crispy, and paired with a bowl of fragrant broth made from melted beef floss, it is a delicious lunch.

We hid by the rock. There were no spider warriors nearby, so we took the opportunity to rest for a while.

The bonfire lit by the magic scroll of ‘fire gathering’ had no smoke and would not attract the spider warriors in the forest.

We walked for a whole morning, and there were several battles in succession. We captured five giant spiders alive and killed one by mistake. �

There was a saying on the Pai Plateau: Don't take those minotaurs seriously!

The meaning of this sentence seems vague, but now I understand its meaning.

The minotaurs are honest and simple. Even when facing the enemy, they will be compassionate and unwilling to kill the enemy. Generally, they will leave some room when fighting. But once in a battle, the minotaurs find that the situation is unfavorable, or realize the crisis on the battlefield, then when they take this battle very seriously, the minotaurs will burst out with powerful strength.

They will use their physical advantages to make the battle much simpler. I found that when Luka wanted to fight, he could be so strong that he could compete with the bulky and powerful spider warriors when charging head-on, and he could not lose the wind.

The spider warriors are not as fearless of the cold as the barbarians. They are more afraid of ice magic, so this battle is not too difficult for us.

Kalancuo stood far away on a tree where the forest and the stream meet, responsible for vigilance. She had no good feelings towards Ledie, so she stayed away from her. Kalancuo had also heard a little about what the imperial princess had done before. This beastwoman warrior who had a clear distinction between love and hate would not look up to her just because she was a princess or Ying Li's sister.

In the eyes of the beastmen, only the strong are respected.

I sat on the stone and sorted out the magic backpack, took out bundles of magic scrolls, placed them on the ground in different categories, tied them up in bundles, and then carefully counted the number of remaining magic scrolls.

For low-level magicians, the role of scrolls is particularly important in battle. There are many benefits to using scrolls in battle, such as ultra-low magic consumption, short spells, and 100% spell casting success rate. For a junior magician, having a magic scroll will increase the combat effectiveness by more than one equivalent.

However, at present, only some low-level magic scrolls can be bought in magic shops. Magic ink made of low-level monster leather and low-level magic herbs produces a large number of low-level magic scrolls. These magic scrolls flow into the magic market, and the price is not cheap. As a result, many magicians will weigh whether it is necessary to use magic scrolls in this battle.

In addition, when high-level magicians fight, the role of these low-level magic scrolls seems negligible.

The ultra-low success rate of making magic scrolls also makes magic scrolls have a higher threshold.

The high price of magic scrolls limits the development prospects of magic scrolls.

Therefore, even magicians from wealthy noble families cannot use magic scrolls without restraint. It is not that they are not financially capable of using magic scrolls, but that they do not have the habit of using magic scrolls as their main means of combat.

I just have this habit!

This extravagant combat habit was developed on the Pai Plateau. At that time, in order to fight against the gray dwarves together with the orcs of the Laitu tribe and to hunt those extremely fast-running magic antelopes, Kuz and I used a large number of frost scrolls to form a large array of scroll magic traps.

In addition, my high success rate in drawing magic scrolls makes me feel that the value of a scroll is at least five to ten times lower than the price of those scrolls on the market. Because I made them myself, I only need to pay a little material cost, so I don’t cherish these low-level magic scrolls.

I like to use a lot of scrolls when fighting.

I put some magic scrolls that are often used in battle in easy-to-reach places, so that I can throw out one or two scroll magic at will when fighting.

The atmosphere in the team became very dull.

Le Die woke up very early. She had been lying on Kalancuo's back before, and she was silent all the way and didn't say much.

Now she sat on a wolfskin mattress, leaning against the stone wall of the boulder. After experiencing such an incident, she suddenly became much more mature and quiet. Perhaps it was because the princess halo on her had blinded her eyes and made her unable to see herself clearly. However, in the cruel and harsh environment of nature, in front of those enemies who crawled out of the abyss, her so-called halo was just a useless veil, which was ruthlessly unveiled.

Suddenly, she became somewhat unable to accept these facts, and she could not accept that her beloved dragon was still killed.

I handed her a bowl of broth, and she shook her head expressionlessly.

After waking up, she did not ask about the situation of the dragon immediately. It was probably before she fell into a coma that the dragon was killed by the Spider Warlord.

…

Just before we set off, Le Die asked me, “Did you save me?”

She leaned on Kalancuo’s back, her voice was very weak, without any expression, looking at the gurgling stream, and asked me intently.

I simply answered, “Yes! On the night you left the Dragon Society team, something happened in our camp. The spider warriors attacked our camp, and the people in our two teams ran away. Later, we found that you were missing, so after escaping danger, everyone decided to come out to find you.”

Following Kalancuo, I walked and said, “I learned from a spider warrior that you might fall into the spider camp, so I sneaked into the camp to try my luck.”

I didn’t want her to thank me or take any credit.

So I said, “But it wasn’t just the three of us who saved you. We were also in danger at the time.”

Hearing what I said, she showed a curious look in her eyes, and her sad eyes finally flashed with some curiosity. She wanted to know who saved her.

So I gave the answer: "It was a flying dragon of the Asian dragon family. Just last night, it fell from the sky and spit out several walls of fire at the spider camp, causing the camp to fall into a sea of ​​fire. Then, by the way, it took us from the spider camp to the side of a large lake. It was probably the source of the stream!"

I looked at her, then spread my hands, shrugged my shoulders and said to her: "Whether you believe it or not, this is the fact."

She was a little dazed!

Then I continued to say to Le Die: "By the way, the flying dragon was injured in the battle and died not long after arriving at the lake. It didn't leave any wealth. The power of the dragon god took its body back to the dragon cemetery, leaving nothing behind."

"It only left you a dragon egg, an unhatched dragon egg." After saying that, I shouted to the tauren warrior Luka who was walking behind: "Luka, can you carry the huge dragon egg over?"

Luka found a linen pocket, put the dragon egg in the pocket, and carried it behind him.

At this time, he heard me calling him, and he replied honestly: "Of course, Jijia, this big thing is quite heavy, can I not carry it on my back?"

Obviously, this dragon egg was quite important. When he saw me calling him and saying that I wanted to see the dragon egg, he was very happy that he didn't have to carry this big thing anymore. He ran over happily and grinned at me.

At this time, he put the cloth bag behind him on the ground, revealing the gray dragon egg in his pocket. Countless blood lines appeared faintly on the eggshell of the dragon egg. Those strange symbols were all unfamiliar magic runes to me.

I extinguished his fantasy, waved my hand and said to him: "Oh, no! My friend, you have to hold on for a while. You see, these things with vital signs cannot be put into the magic backpack. You are the strongest in our team. Next, of course, you will need to carry it."

Luka never knew how to refuse my request.

He brushed the dust off his hands and said in a muffled voice: "Okay!"

Ledie recovered quickly. Although she was seriously injured, after a day of recuperation, she could even stand up with the help of Kalancuo.

She came to the side of the huge dragon egg, stretched out her hand, and wanted to touch the dragon egg. She leaned down and stretched out her pale arm. When the crystal fingertips stretched out to the dragon egg, ripples appeared in the air, and those ripples spread out little by little.

At this time, blood-red magic runes in the same form as the shell of the dragon egg emerged on Ledie's arm. Ledie's hand pressed on the dragon egg, and her eyes became very bright, as if she had regained some vitality. She stretched her brows and suddenly said: "I have a very strange feeling about it, just like Jasmine is alive, I can feel its existence!"

Jasmine? Could it be the name of the first dragon? I stood aside and guessed.

Then, Ledie finally showed a trace of joy, turned around and said to me: "It's very strong!"

In this way, we continued on the road. Ledie, who was lying on the Kalancuo quilt, was still very quiet, but her face was not as dull as before. Occasionally, the corners of her mouth would slightly rise. Only when the dimples appeared on her face, she would look very similar to Ying Li!

"Oh, by the way, Jijia, I should at least say thank you!" Ledie said to me just before I walked to the front to lead the way. It turned out that this proud princess would say thank you. I thought she would not say it.

It made me a little embarrassed. I didn't look back, but whispered: "Have a good rest. We will soon meet up with the logistics support group of the Magic Academy. At that time, they will take you back to Pereira City to recuperate, and maybe return directly to the imperial capital!"

"Yero, there is also such a dangerous jungle, but those troops will soon come to deal with these spiders..."

In the evening, we successfully passed the area near the spider camp. Those spider warriors had withdrawn many patrol scouts. Those spider warriors were in a mess. If I wasn't worried that the spider commander might appear at any time, I would even have the urge to hunt again.

Along the stream, we walked for a whole night and finally left the area controlled by the spider warriors along the stream. Before dawn, I found our team smoothly according to the marks left by Qige.

After we returned to the team, we immediately heard some terrible news: Adele was seriously injured.
