my age of magic

Chapter 141. 141. Farewell to the Town

The moonlight spilled into the room like quicksilver. Qige wore thick cotton gloves on her hands, but she was only wearing a close-fitting home linen dress. A magic robe splashed with hoarfrost was hanging on the hanger. On the bottles of milky white ink placed on the wooden bed, her beautiful face showed a sweet and self-satisfied smile.He casually took off the cotton gloves on his hand, threw them on the cotton pad on the table beside him, reached out and untied the ponytail at the back of his head, after it was loosened, the smooth hair fell down like a waterfall.

She patted the table a little disappointed, took a deep breath in frustration, and saw that I didn't draw the scroll, but was looking at her stupidly, so she puffed up her mouth and made a face at me, and said to me viciously: " Why don’t you hurry up and work, why are you dawdling?”

"Recover your magic power!" I replied, staring at her tired, lazy and charming appearance.

Since there is no magic pool in my body, mana has always been my biggest flaw, and the mana remaining in my body is very limited. These remaining mana are also gradually lost after my body becomes resistant to fire magic elements. can exist in the body.Whenever the mana in the body is full, you can support me to draw two magic scrolls, and then I need to meditate to restore the mana in the body.With this method of meditation, the recovery of mana is not fast, but the mana I can store is even more limited, so it usually only takes 15 minutes to draw two magic scrolls again.

At this time, I just woke up from meditation, and saw Qige's lazy and charming appearance after distributing the ink, and I was stunned for a while.

Hearing what I said, she turned around and sat on the armchair by the window, with her hands on her knees, her chin resting on her knees, looking at the night sky outside the window, silent.I saw that she seemed to have something on her mind, so I put down the magic engraving pen in my hand, and walked to her side to watch the moonlight outside the window with her, neither of us spoke.

In the end, she finally couldn't help but speak first, the silver moon outside the window, the kerosene street lamps on the streets of Gludin Town will clearly draw the outline of the whole town, making this silent night a little more color.

She said: "That day, I saw an airship parked in the airport!"

Qige's eyes were blurred, and the ruby ​​on her snow-white neck exuded a dark red seductive brilliance under the night.

"Ah?" I thought to myself that the boat belongs to your family!
"Nine flame-like tails are painted on the airbag of the airship. Some people say it is a blood-red flower of the other shore, and some say it is the leaves of the nine tree of life, but I know that the pattern represents nine. The tail of life is the strongest blood force of our Tianhu family. Our ancestors lived in seclusion to the Aitia Empire. Later, our father and mother took us to the Green Empire. This flag also followed us to the Green Empire. It is our The symbol of a merchant ship." Qige said, it turned out that she was not looking at the moonlight outside the window at the moment, but at the airport under the night sky.Under the night, the lights on the top of the tower can still be seen from the castle, constantly beating.

I asked her, "Then why don't you meet them? Are they also trading with the orcs here?"

Qige turned to look at me with a complicated look in her eyes, and then said: "They are here to pick me up, I made an appointment with them, I just went out with the dance troupe to relax, now it's time to go home .Mr. Jiashadi must have told the family that we will settle down in Gludin Town, and they are waiting for me here! But for the time being, I don’t want to see them.”

"Because you don't want me?" I asked weakly. At this time, my heart was beating wildly. I was afraid that if she said yes, I didn't know how to answer, and I was also afraid that she would say no. You're so self-indulgent!

Qige turned to look at me in surprise, and then a smile appeared on her beautiful face, like a lily in bloom.She pushed me and said, "What are you thinking! You?"

Then he turned his face out of the window and said seriously: "I just haven't seen the war dance in the tribe, I heard that the war dance inherited from the oldest tribe of the orcs can give the orcs infinite strength and courage before the battle. I still want to see it! So..."

She seemed to have found an excuse for herself, her eyes brightened, then she straightened her body and looked at me and said, "At that time, I will say, I will go to a remote small tribe and watch the orcs dance there! Wait until Shang The team has arrived at Gludin Town, I will leave!"

In this way, we spent the last night in Gludin Town.

In the early morning, Qigra led me to stand on the edge of the town and look at the airport from a distance. The huge airship with the nine-tailed logo and other airships were quietly moored at the port of the airport, like huge fierce monsters. beast.The orcs in the small town have already started to walk towards the airport, almost every day. They are a group of coolies begging for a living in the airport. As long as they are willing to work hard, no matter what time, they will have a bowl of gruel to drink.

Facing this silent harbor, we wave goodbye!

We wave goodbye to this quiet town!

...beautiful dividing line...

There are several caravans in the wasteland flocking to Gludin, which is short of food, and there is no change because of us. There are still tens of thousands of orcs digging wild vegetables in the wasteland for a living.Some orcs also began to suffer from hunger one after another. There are more and more victims in the town, and the price of goods is getting higher and higher day by day. The fastest growing food is food. Gribaschin was still sitting in the camp before leaving Sighing on the big rock on the edge, I don't know how many days the prosperity of Gludin Town can last.

The orc girls of the Raitu tribe have already rolled up the hard cowhide on their backs, and each has a bulging bag of black flour on their backs. The camps have all been uprooted in the early morning, and the dug out nests The house was also hastily filled, and the beast women in the tribe took their children and waited on the mound outside the town. When they saw us riding on the Yagui beast, they slowly appeared in their field of vision. , There were bursts of cheers from the mound.

There are no piles of herbal sacks on Yagui Beast's back. This time we don't have much luggage, only two large wooden boxes and a bundle of tents that have been dismantled.Gerile stood far away on the mound, saw our Yagui beast slowly approaching, she started to run towards us, her fit body was full of rhythm in running, every step would make her feet splash The green grass is coming, and she is carrying three javelins made of antelope horns on her back. Although I am so far away, I can still see the joy on her face. She is like a fiery tree. Sunflower is always full of enthusiasm for life all the time.

The back of Yagui Beast is very quiet, because there is an extra orc in our team, and the iconic werewolf maid who followed Kurz all day also set off with us, and now she is sitting beside Kurz, quietly Just like a Persian cat, she looks heroic in an ordinary leather armor, but it is obvious that this beast woman is a pillow person given to him by Grandma Kuzi, and now she is only taking care of Kuzi's daily life, just waiting After Kurz attends the coming-of-age ceremony, he will be officially married by Kurz.

Miss Qi, Katerina, and I were lying on the back of the beast, curious and looking forward to it, waiting for the start of such a good show as the two daughters fighting for husband.

Gerile swung her long black braids and ran up to Yagui Beast. She saw the quiet maid sitting next to Kurtz. People who came out of the castle, even a maid would exude a noble temperament. , even if she sits there quietly, she will look extraordinary.Gerile blinked his big watery eyes, and beads of sweat dripped from his wheat-colored, healthy and shiny skin.Like a fawn, she looked up at Kurtz who was riding on Yagui beast's neck, biting her lower lip with her snow-white shell-like teeth, looked at the rough leather armor on her body with some embarrassment, and lowered her head in shame.

"Geril, come up quickly!" Kuz said loudly while sitting on Yagui Beast's neck, spreading his hands.

I secretly admire Kuz, he has a really thick skin, and when he is facing another girl with a girl next to him, he can still invite her to come up with him without changing his face, it's really shameless.

"Hey, didn't you say there would be more intense scenes? Didn't you say you could see the bloody fight between the two beast girls? Where is it?" Miss Qi kept saying in my ear I was thinking about it, but I was a little lost at this time. I stared straight at Geril who was nestled in Kurz’s arms, and then at the maid sitting behind Kurz, who was as quiet as a Persian cat. We The Yagui beast under him kept moving forward.

Soon, our team was included in the large army of the Raitu tribe. This time the team seemed to grow a lot bigger. Gribaschin explained to Kurz in a little embarrassment: There is really no way, we can’t watch Seeing that those beast girls and their children really starved to death outside the camp, they only took some who were too hungry to survive.

Kuz said bluntly: "Then let them go with us, we will go forward while hunting, no one will starve to death in the wilderness."

"However, the small animals in the wasteland around Gludin have almost disappeared, and the bison and sheep have also migrated to other places. In the wasteland here, even the roots of wild vegetables have been dug out, chewed and swallowed. , there is nothing to eat here!" Gribaschin said worriedly to Kurtz.

"Let's go south from here until we reach Heishan Aozi, and then go around Yelang Cliff to Qinghai Lake." Kurtz pointed to the outline of the black mountain in the distance.

Gribaschin said in surprise: "Why are you going to Qinghai Lake! This road is not only a long detour, but there are countless wind wolves along the way, and the most important thing is that there are no supply points at all on this route. It's okay, but there is no water! So many of us need to drink water, do you know how much water we drink every day, each person's water bladder is only enough for three days, what will we do after three days?"

"Let's go get some salt!" Kurz said calmly, and Gerile was nestled beside him like a little yellow warbler.

Gribaschin's eyes widened, and the white mustache on his lips trembled slightly with anger.He was short of breath, and his old body became more and more rickety. He said eagerly, "The salt in Qinghai Lake? The orcs in the entire western wilderness know that there is salt, but we still buy expensive imported salt from those human merchants. The reason is that the salt in Qinghai Lake will poison people if they eat it, and there is no grass growing there."

"I have a way to make those poisonous salts edible, but I don't know if this method will work. I just want to go somewhere to prove it. If it works, it can give millions of orcs on the Pai Plateau Open up a new salt road. In Gludin Town, every year it is used to exchange salt for Mithril mine, which can be filled with a hundred thunder rhinos. But now..." Kurtz lowered his voice and fell into Gribaschin's ear The side said: "Right now, the salt in Gludin's shops has run out, and two caravans transporting salt have not arrived at Gludin on time. There is no salt. How can our soldiers have the strength to protect Gludin? fortress?"

Gribaschin's face became ugly. As an experienced tribal elder, he has enough wisdom and experience. He is even an orc witch doctor, and he also understands superficial knowledge of magic herbs. Sex, he realized it more deeply.

Kuz then said: "That's why I was temporarily sent by my elder brother Chief Kut to find salt. As for you and the people in the Raitu tribe, they followed us to eat meat!"

Gribaschin asked somewhat puzzled, "Eat meat?"

"We're just going to cook some salt and come back. We don't need so many people. I want to hunt some wild wolves when we pass Night Wolf Cliff. Although the wolf meat is sour and hard, we can still cook soup. I can't just let the people in the tribe eat multigrain cakes and black bread made of black flour, I want to bring back some wolf meat!"

Gribaschin almost rolled his eyes in anger and fainted.Gerila was so frightened that he quickly supported Gribasqin, patted his chest, let him release his chest, and cried, "Grandpa, what's wrong with you, don't worry! "

Gribasqin said earnestly: "Child, how did the leader of Raitu get hurt, why he lost the support of the tribal subjects, left sadly, and went to the Gludin Fortress to join the army alone, don't you understand? He took The story of the last warriors of our tribe who were annihilated by the wind wolf in the wolf gorge in the wilderness at the northern foot of the foot, can't these give you any warning? You want my granddaughter to be sad for you, and in the end you don't care about your life Rush into the pack of wolves and snatch your body back, and then marry another werewolf?"

Kuz patted his chest and said, "I'll let you see how we hunt wind wolves!" After speaking, he looked at the wooden box on Yagui Beast's back, full of confidence.

"...You... Your Ku family is already so rich, just to hunt a few wind wolves and use expensive magic scrolls?" Gribasqin finally came to his senses, he remembered how we hunted It's time for the Oryx.

Just when Gribaschin was stunned, Qige took out a palm-sized scroll from his arms, tore it apart with his hands indifferently, and immediately a clear water ball condensed in the air, when the water ball condensed to the size of a watermelon Then, with a pop, it shattered and all the water in the water polo spilled on the ground.Then he glanced contemptuously at Gribaschin from the corner of his eyes, and the beautiful eyes clearly said: You are right, we are prodigal sons, and we are just taking scrolls to make way for extravagance.

"This is water, water gathered by magic?" Gribaschin's three views have been ruined by us, and he is afraid that at this time he will completely classify the few of us as noble dudes, and he is the kind of super prodigal playboy.

Kurz didn't know how to explain it, so he could only answer truthfully: "Well, yes! I just want to go all the way..."

"You mean we don't need to carry water at all, but just tear up a scroll like this when we're thirsty?" Gribaschin began to make bold guesses.

"You're right! It's true!" Kuz replied, "We still have a lot of scrolls like this, enough for us all the way..."

Speaking of this water gathering scroll, it was a complete accident.It was the night before, when Miss Qi was a little absent-minded, she should have added ice grass juice to the milky white ink, but she took the wrong potion bottle and added the moonstone water solution that was originally intended to make moonlight ink. Go in, the moonstone water solution itself is a water solvent with fire attributes. Once it is put into the milky white ink, it will completely destroy the ice attribute in the milky white ink. Without my knowledge, I draw according to the magic circle of the frost scroll A scroll came out, but when I tied it with Malian grass, I found that the scroll was not cold at all, so I went to the balcony and tried to tear the scroll, and a magical thing appeared in front of me. A water ball appeared, which quickly shattered within seconds.The Frost Scroll turned into a 'water polo' skill because of the moonstone water solution added to it, but this water polo has no power at all.
