My Magic Age

Nowadays, the permanent population in the underground cave near the altar exceeds about 800 people. In addition to nearly a hundred powerful orc warriors, most of them are indigenous people of Hiero who were brought in due to the war in the Hiero plane. At that time, Their tribe was ambushed by the dark spider people. If I hadn't led the orc warriors to rescue them, it would have been difficult for the indigenous people to take out the spider people's claws. All the indigenous people who could migrate long distances with the large army were gone. Only some seriously injured patients were left.

Maybe two months is not a long time, but it is enough for the indigenous people living in underground caves to heal their wounds quietly. The vast majority of the indigenous people survived because of timely treatment. In addition to wasting a large number of hydrotherapy scrolls, I In addition, dozens of boxes of hemostatic bandages were consumed, and no matter how superb the treatment methods were, they could not match the tenacity of the indigenous people's own vitality. More than 100,000 of the indigenous people who were seriously injured in the spider-man ambush survived. Eighty percent.

Qige watched the group of indigenous people pass by us with calm faces. It seemed that they had adapted to the life here. These indigenous people like to live a comfortable life. For them, they can have a shelter from the rain every day. You can have wheat cakes and water , and can often go out to hunt goblins deep in the caves. For the indigenous people of the Hierro plane, this kind of comfortable life does not matter even in the underground world where the sun does not shine. After all, the Hierro plane is also surrounded by people all year round. It's hard to see the sun when the clouds are overcast.

The only regret is to leave the lush black forest. After all, the underground cave lacks the smell of pine oil in the forest. I saw patches of dense forest drawn on some walls with white lime powder and red iron oxide powder. Those There are towering ancient trees, dense bushes, forest glades, and intertwined ancient vines on the stone walls.

In addition to heavy manual labor every day, the goblins captured by the dwarf Bernd not only have to dig copper ore in cold underground mines, but also transform newly opened mines into underground warehouses. It is very simple to convert the new mine into a warehouse. You only need to make a waterproof layer around the stone wall, set up a ventilation hole at the top of the cave wall, and install a large iron door in an appropriate place. A brand new underground warehouse is constructed. It worked.

Qi Ge kicked the hard rail with the heel of her boots. Every time she took a step, she would step on the sleeper accurately, making a soft sound of "bang bang". It had been a long time since she had seen Qi Ge's childish side, whether it was In the academy or the Magic Research Institute, the aura of the seventh prince-to-be-princess of the Green Empire forced her to become as cold as an iceberg.

We continued walking along the main road of the cave, and Qige suddenly turned around and asked me: "That dwarf wants to build a subway here?".

I know that Qige traveled to the dwarf country with the Imperial City Dance Troupe ten years ago. They once stayed in King Stan City for a period of time. The dwarves, who are born to be excellent craftsmen, have penetrated all the tunnels under the underground city, and A magic subway was built in the area around Stan King City. She once described to me the underground transportation that combines machinery and magic. However, in order to move something like a mine cart, at least twenty strong dwarves are needed. Just sit on it and pedal hard.

"Yes!" I replied calmly.

She knew that I had customized 30,000 light rails in the blacksmith workshop in the Imperial Capital, and she had probably heard me talk about the purpose of the rails, but she was a little unsure after actually seeing the light rails laid in the cave. I squatted down and reached out to touch the cold rails. The rails were covered with even hammer marks.

I looked into the dark depths of the cave and said to her: "Don't worry about it, don't worry about it!"

Qige's eyes were like the two brightest stars in the night sky, and her face reflected a porcelain white luster.

She asked me: "Do you also want to imitate those stupid dwarves and hire dozens of slaves to ride scooters day and night?"

Squatting on the ground, I stretched out my hand to draw a simple magic circle, chanted a short spell, and a ball of clear and clear water gathered in the palm of my hand. When I withdrew my magic power, the water ball lost its magical restraint. It turned into a stream of water and poured it on the ground. The stream of water meandered along the stone ground and flowed into the drainage ditch under the stone wall. He said to Qige: "Of course it won't be like that."

At this time, Qige had a trace of doubt in her eyes.

Looking at the traces of clear water flowing on the ground, I explained to Qige: "In fact, the entire underground cave is a gentle slope that gradually slopes downward. If we want to reach the orc village outside the exit of the tree cave on the surface, we actually need to continue Climb up. These minecarts are actually one-way. We only need to push the minecart filled with stones down the gentle slope. As long as we push the minecart onto the track of the gentle slope of the cave, those minecarts will automatically move up. There is no need to use external force at all to dive down.”

Looking up at the top of the cave, there are arm-thick iron bars nailed to the stone wall at the top of the cave every ten meters. These iron bars extend far into the darkness. Pointing to the steel rods with only a short section exposed outside the rock wall, I said: "I am also planning to set up a cable car on the light rail. Every time a fully loaded ore cart enters the underground cave, it will generate a huge momentum. This momentum is completely It can be converted into a source of power for the operation of the cable car. When the time comes, it will be very convenient to transport some simple and light materials to the ground. "

"Why did you suddenly think of doing this?" Qige asked me with a slight frown.

I said truthfully: "After all, I promised Duke Samoyed that I would build a town in Trum within three years. There is no good quarry there, so Bernd and I planned to lay light tracks in the cave and use large mine cars to transport hundreds of thousands of granite stones from the Xinliu Valley Quarry to the warehouse near the teleportation array altar."

"I thought you were just talking casually." Qi Ge smiled a little embarrassedly.

"I still have more than 600 barbarian slaves in the Xinliu Valley Quarry. Those slaves are barbarians captured from the suburbs of El City in the past two years." After saying that, I pointed my finger upwards.

Recalling the good times in El City, the sunset glow always appears in my mind, coating the walls, bell and drum towers and war colleges of El City with a layer of gold. I looked at the playground of Stans College through the attic window, waiting for Ryant to return from school, or maybe buy some delicious snacks for my Tracy on the way. But slowly, we grew up. Tracy and I no longer have the estrangement we had when we were kids. Ryant has also married a new wife, Nancy, and has a stepdaughter, Cindy.

It only took a moment to get lost in the sea of ​​memory. I came to my senses and said to Qige, "The barbarians on the snowy tundra take advantage of the freezing of the Galloping Horse River every winter and move south in large numbers. Three years ago, I joined the Falcon Squad of El City and followed some demon hunters and strong men from the adventure group to hunt outside the city. Later, I simply took Kalancuo and Luka out to do it alone. The northerners and the barbarians are mortal enemies. Even if the northerners catch the barbarians, they usually won't leave them alive. They will first cut off the barbarians' left ears, and then stab them in the chest - kill them, but I killed those barbarians. Bring them into Xinliu Valley and force them to sign a slave contract. "

I continued, "Originally, we planned to dig these granite stones in the quarry in order to build a mountain city on the hillside of the circular valley. Unfortunately, we couldn't find a professional architect. The castle was only built on the foundation and has not been built. A large amount of stone filled the quarry. I planned to transport all these stones to Trum and use these huge granite bars to build a Trum town. It's actually quite good. "

"But what do those barbarian slaves want to tell me?" I turned my head and looked at Kalancuo.

The orc female warrior shrugged her shoulders and spread her hands, indicating that she knew nothing about it.

I looked at Kalancuo in surprise: "I am really a little curious now. What on earth do those barbarian slaves want to talk to me about? Even you don't know. They should be secretly thankful that they have not been deprived of their lives. Why are they still thinking about rights and interests!"

"It's because you have been raising them freely in the past few years. How can slaves be as relaxed as them? They only need to complete the assigned tasks every time, and the rest of the time is at their disposal." Kalancuo snorted and refuted my words without any hesitation.

Another branch appeared in the cave in front of me. The light rail extended straight into the distance. A huge wooden fence was erected in another fork cave. The wooden fences were densely arranged, and the gaps between them were so large that even a goblin could not pass through. Kalancuo walked over and knocked on the large wooden door on the outside of the fence. The wooden door was opened from the inside. The two young orc warriors saw me and Kalancuo, and their faces were full of excitement.

Kalancuo walked in without saying anything. I patted the two orc warriors' strong shoulders in a friendly way. Unfortunately, I was a little short, so my action looked a little funny. However, seeing my friendly look, the two young orc warriors seemed very happy. They chased Kalancuo all the way and hurriedly removed the bolt on the second wooden door.

When the wooden door was pushed open by the two orc warriors, although I knew the scene inside, I was still shocked by the rows of oak barrels more than five meters high. Countless oak barrels were stacked together and extended along the cave. There was no end in sight. Each of these huge oak barrels could hold almost a thousand liters of golden apple wine. The barrels were stacked on top of each other in the wooden racks.

The whole cave was filled with the smell of damp oak and a faint aroma of wine. An oak barrel was placed horizontally at the door, and the cork had traces of being opened. There would be no one else who dared to drink golden apple wine so blatantly except the dwarf Bernd. This time it was good, he knew to insert a copper tube into the cork, this copper tube was only exposed outside for a short time, and there was a small cork on it.

I walked over, took out the bottle from the magic waist bag, and said to Qi Ge: "Only dwarves and winemakers can determine the quality of this barrel of wine before it is opened. Do you want to taste the taste of Zimmerman Manor Golden Apple Wine?"

If I hadn't seen these rows of huge oak barrels with my own eyes, I'm afraid it would be difficult to have such an intuitive understanding even if I knew the exact number in my heart, and it would be difficult to be shocked in my heart. Only by being there, I will know how much wealth these 60,000 barrels of golden apple wine are.

Qi Ge held the glass, leaned on the wooden wall composed of oak barrels, and said to me: "Is this the reason why you helped Lady Alia get rid of Duke Ryan?"

I was silent for a moment, nodded, supported myself on a barrel with one hand, jumped lightly and sat on it, put my legs on the edge of the barrel, and began to tell the story of that winter.

The story begins when the youngest members of the Celtic barbarians failed to return safely to the ice and snow tundra. The group of young barbarians lurked near the fishing lake in the far suburbs of El City, and cooperated with the young successor of the Ito family, Baron Kai, to launch a series of conspiracies and coups against the Aili family. Unfortunately, things did not develop according to Baron Kai's plan. Until the rebellion was exposed, the entire Ito family was implicated and moved south in large numbers.

Later, Baron Kai was beheaded and executed on the banks of the Pegasus River. The rebels fled into the Ziqing Mountains. The eight thousand youngest Celtic barbarians all drank blood on the banks of the Pegasus River. That summer, not only was there fighting everywhere on the south bank of the Pegasus River, but a new round of reshuffles was also taking place on the ice and snow tundra a hundred miles away from the north bank of the Pegasus River. The Celtic barbarian tribe, which had the most fertile grassland at the southern end of the ice and snow tundra, was conquered and annexed by the Storm Bear Tribe.

The winter three years ago was not very good. It can be said to be the worst winter in the city of El in the past ten years. The barbarians from the Storm Bear Tribe crossed the river south after the Horse River froze, but they did not know how to hunt at all. The barbarians of the Storm Bear Tribe were different from the barbarians of the Celtic Tribe. The barbarians of the Celtic Tribe would not destroy the town, nor would they easily hunt women. They were only willing to hunt male slaves. At least the barbarians of the Celtic Tribe knew how to let the imperial women reproduce on this land.

The barbarians of the Storm Bear Tribe launched a devastating attack on the towns around the city of El. They destroyed several towns around the city of El one after another, and gathered outside the city of El to try to capture the city of El. The whole winter was full of war in the city of El. It was that winter that I became a falcon in the city of El.

Our Falcon Squad entered the ruined town of Mars, saw the flattened Zimmerman Manor, and rescued Mrs. Zimmerman Jenny, Mrs. Alia, Ann and Demi from the cellar. In order to find Anthony and others hiding in the wine cellar, I opened a portal in the wine cellar and asked the orc warriors to empty the entire wine cellar of golden apple wine.

In order to keep the secret of Xinliu Valley, I couldn't return the golden apple wine to Ann, and such a large fortune made me feel unbalanced at the time, but later I became friends with Ann. For him, I was both a teacher and a friend, which made me even more uneasy. Although An lived a life of food and clothing in El City, since he took someone else's things, he wanted to compensate him.

Perhaps he was worried that one day in the future, he might meet Ann again on the streets of the imperial capital. At least he could greet her cordially instead of being hated. At least he could travel the imperial capital together instead of passing by like strangers. At least he could talk about the situation in the past few years instead of being unable to say anything...
