my age of magic

Chapter 1583 133. The Curtain Call of the Babington Family
A bartender held a bottle with a thin neck and round belly, and slowly poured the amber liquor into the glasses. The mellow aroma of the wine permeated the air, stimulating the sense of smell of the drinkers in the room. All eyes were on the waiter.

The waiter who was waiting on the side picked up the tray and shuttled back and forth in the hall, distributing the goblets full of wine to the magicians.

This is a salon organized by water magicians. Scholar Sean notified me half a month ago to prepare for the speech. I am one of the speakers at this salon.

Being able to be a speaker at a salon party shows that the circle of water magicians has a certain degree of recognition for speakers. This kind of thing has now evolved into a qualification, and it is often the water magician who gives the most speeches at the party Only then can they be regarded as veterans of this party.

According to the past practice, magicians who give speeches at the salon party should prepare a bottle of wine and bring it to the salon party to share with other water magicians.

For this reason, I brought a bottle of golden cider, but this bottle of golden cider is slightly different from other ciders. This bottle of Zimmermann golden cider has been cellared for 15 years, and the liquor has become a A slightly viscous amber color, this bottle of golden cider has not only been stored in the underground caves of Simwill Valley for nearly five years, but also stored in the wine cellar of the Zimmerman Estate for nearly six years.

A month ago, I moved the first batch of golden cider to the magic herb plantation in the belly of the mountain of the unnamed island for storage...

The mountainside of the unnamed island happened to be a rare time node, where the time flow rate was nearly [-] times faster than the normal time flow rate. This kind of place is not only suitable for growing magic herbs, but also can be used for cellaring fine wine.The bottle of golden cider at the salon party had been stored in the magic herb plantation on the Unnamed Sea Island for nearly a month, but unexpectedly the liquor turned amber in color.

The magicians held goblets of golden cider, and while drinking the mellow golden cider, gathered around the long and narrow blackboard in the hall, carefully looking at the five new water magic runes on the blackboard.

Everyone gathered together to discuss. Regarding the painting methods of the five water-type runes, the water-type magicians have different opinions. As for the mysterious magic runes, the magicians can interpret different meanings from them, and even have different meanings. The magician has already imitated these new water rune boards on the edge of the blackboard, and asked me some questions based on the runes.

I don't know much about the arrangement of these rune element matrices. Only questions related to the drawing method can be answered. This lecture on the new rune lasted for a long time before it was considered over. Only magicians like Yerkes scholars , will be interested in the matrix arrangement of the elements inside the runes. Most magicians just want to know how to apply these water runes.

Standing in front of the blackboard, I quickly sketched minimalist magic lines with my fingers on my chest. Those light blue magic lines automatically wove into a mysterious magic circle as if they had life, surrounding me The surrounding water magicians held their breath and stared wide-eyed at me drawing the water-type rune, but they didn't know how to use my mana.

They don't know that this is actually a kind of ability of the orc tribe's spell weavers. They can use the complicated magic pattern circle to greatly simplify the way of drawing magic runes through the understanding of elements. Those magic lines are like a pair of dexterous magic lines. Invisible hands weave a complex magic circle, which is the true meaning of the spell weaver.

A water magician who was crowded in the front row couldn't help asking: "Mage Jijia, how did you do it?"

I rubbed my nose and replied, "Well, it may be due to the affinity of the water element, or it may be due to drawing too many magic circles. I can't describe this feeling..."

After the speech, I stood in the crowd wearing a brand new magic robe. Some young water magicians who participated in the salon got together and said to a young water magician with a smile: "Gary, I didn't listen to you last time." Say, are you going to go to the north to see the snow?"

The magicians around laughed, and the water magician called Gali pushed his glasses shyly, and replied: "I do have such a travel plan, and I have indeed consulted my family and my mentor for approval. , but when I took action, I encountered firm opposition from friends around me. In order to avoid hurting my friends’ hearts, I could only slow down my travel plan and wait until the weather is warmer before going to the north.”

"Your heartbroken friend is actually the lover from Queen Street! Gary..." The water magician who asked me the question just now smiled exaggeratedly, everyone likes to have some small talk with Gary Gali also has a carefree personality, and he never cares about these small jokes, so he is very popular among this group of young water magicians.

A middle-aged magician sat on the armrest of the sofa and said with a smile: "When the spring is warm and the flowers bloom, those barbarians on the ice and snow tundra will probably go home."

A few days ago, I just received a letter from Earl Desmond, saying that the North Wind Army was preparing for a big battle. This time, Duke Jingyue was going to drive the barbarians to the north bank of the Galloping Horse River. Earl Mond is confident in this battle.In order to support Duke Jingyue's war against the barbarians this time, I supported her with a whole ship of dual-attribute giant crossbow bolts.

Among this batch of giant crossbow arrows, in addition to the normal giant crossbow arrows with two magical effects of 'penetrating' and 'sharp', there are also two boxes of frozen arrows and explosive arrows. These two kinds of magic crossbow arrows are single-attribute arrows , but the engraved magic is no longer elementary magic, but upgraded to second-level magic. The second-level magic skill 'Frozen' is engraved on the frozen arrow, and the second-level magic skill 'Burst Flame' is engraved on the explosive arrow.

I said to the magicians around me: "Maybe it won't take so long... But speaking of it, the northern border in the spring, when the ice and snow first melt, and the southeast trade wind revives everything on that fertile land, it is still worth a visit. "

Listening to my description of the beautiful scenery of the Northern Province, many magicians are yearning for it, and Gali even sighed:

"It is said that only warriors who have experienced the wind and snow in the north can become real Sloit warriors!"

The water magician standing beside him joked quickly:
"Gary, I'm afraid you will never be a real warrior."

"What's the matter, I'm a water magician!" Gali said indifferently: "I traveled to the northern border, just wanting to taste the golden cider that is abundant there, but today I tasted the one brought by Jijia. Good wine, I know what real golden cider is, so it doesn't really make much sense to me whether I go to the Northern Province..."

There was laughter all around again.

Of course, the taste of this bottle of golden cider I brought is quite good, and the age of precipitation makes it have a mellow taste and a golden texture.

A water magician who was going to give a speech at the next salon complained to me with a bitter face that I shouldn’t share such a bottle of wine with everyone, so that he didn’t even know what wine he should bring to the next party .

This is probably the last water magician salon meeting I will attend in the imperial capital this winter. I spared some time to explain the five new ways of drawing water system runes to these water magicians. I believe they have heard about my event. After the speech, you will more or less have new insights into these runes.

"Are you ready?" Scholar Xiaon asked me, he knew that I was preparing for the trip to the strange rock.

Leaning against the window, watching the lights outside the castle, I turned my head and said:

"Well, I'll leave on the day after the exam. The tickets for the magic airship have already been booked."

Scholar Xiao En asked me: "It takes at least half a month for a magic airship to fly from the imperial capital to Qiyan City!"

The winter vacation at the Royal Academy of Magic is only over two months. If I take the magic airship, it means that I will spend nearly a month on the journey to Strange Rock City, even though the ticket for the magic airship is cheaper than the cost of going through the portal Many times, traveling between the two places through the portal is still the preferred method for many nobles.

I explained to Scholar Xiaon: "We arrived at Haiyinsi City through the teleportation hall of the imperial capital, where there happened to be a magic airship flying to Qiyan City. It only takes a week to reach Qiyan City."

I insist on taking the magic airship to Qiyan City. In fact, I hope that when the magic airship enters Qiyan Province, I can observe the surrounding landforms from the airship. After all, we came to Qiyan City rashly, and we want to organize an adventure group to go deep The wild swamp, especially the recent wars in the wild swamp, it is even more necessary to have a detailed understanding of the landforms there.

Although the situation around Strange Rock City is very different from that of the Wild Swamp, at least some of the growing vegetation should be similar.

Scholar Xiaon patted me on the shoulder and said to me, "Remember to write to me when you get there..."

I nodded.

……

The afternoon sun made people drowsy, and Yingli and I sat in the magic caravan heading to the lakeside manor, enjoying the rare quiet time in the afternoon.

Helena has just completed the final exam of the Advanced Swordsman Academy. She has been promoted to 'Sword Dancer' and naturally passed the actual combat exam and the ability test. The battle rules that need to be memorized can only be truly understood when they are actually on the battlefield. Now they don't need to fully understand it, but the swordsmen are required to memorize it completely, so Helena stayed up all night last night.

After completing the theoretical exam in the morning, Helena got into the magic caravan. Once her spirit relaxed and her tiredness surged, she fell asleep next to me.

Becky was sitting on the soft leather sofa opposite. There was a map of Qiyan Province on the wooden table in the carriage. She was taking some notes seriously. There was also a book about the customs and customs of Qiyan City on the table. Everyone is actively preparing for the trip to Qiyan City.

The magic caravan drove out of Yulin Street and turned onto Lakeside Avenue. The entire surface of Weiyang Lake was covered with a thick layer of snow.

The dock was also covered with a thick layer of snow. The boatmen seemed to be enjoying the long winter vacation, and the entire dock looked extremely depressed.

"Le Die has been asking me about my winter vacation plans recently. She probably heard some news and plans to go to Qiyan City with us." Ying Li put down the teacup in her hand and said softly. Ginkgo tree.

"Ignore her, it's impossible to take her on this trip to Qiyan City." I said directly without thinking.

Ying Li exhaled lightly and said, "Well, since it's decided, I'll talk to her later."

Now that Prince James has decided to train Le Die to be the future commander of the South Wind Army, this kind of risky thing has been completely cut off from her. If Prince James knows that Le Die went to Strange Rock City for adventure, it is estimated that this pot will eventually be It's up to me to recite it, so I decided to get rid of this idea in Le Die's mind from the bud
A group of constructed knights passed us by, looking at their gorgeous attire, even the armor on the horses was embroidered with gold thread, the two constructed knights carrying the flag at the front, one holding a Wearing the military flag of the Constructed Knights, one is holding the flag of the Babington family. It seems that this is the Constructed Knights honor guard of the Babington family.

Before I could see the attributes of the magic pattern structures on those knights, I saw a convoy of magic caravans from the Babington family passing by us, because there were constructed knights on both sides of the convoy, So they take up most of the road, and our magic caravan just sits on the side of the road, waiting for them to pass completely.

But I don't understand what important activities they will have in this winter, and they need to dispatch such a large convoy.

Both Ying Li and I leaned our heads against the window, watching one magic caravan after another slowly pass by, and the back of each magic caravan was full of suitcases.

I asked Yingli: "Why are there so many salutes in the car, are the Babington family moving?"

As soon as I said the words, a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, the direction of the lakeside continent just leads to the pass in the north of Mount Majaro, so...

"They are preparing to leave the imperial capital!" Ying Li and I blurted out at the same time.

Unexpectedly, after the victory of Ahn'Qirad, the situation of the Babington family became even more difficult.

Not only did the Babington family lose the three mithril mines on the plane of Ahn'Qirador, but Billy Babington's business plan for the primary rune tablet market was also completely ruined. In addition, when the imperial capital council hall distributed the fruits of victory in the Ahnquilador Plane War, Billy Babington also insulted the forces formed by the small lords of the imperial capital, and the reputation of the Babington family in the imperial capital plummeted.

I think they chose to leave the imperial capital at this time because they couldn't get along in the imperial capital, so this group of family members returned to San Carlos City.

A gorgeous magic caravan passed in front of me, and I saw Duke Billy Babington sitting in the car, looking at Weiyang Lake outside the window with dark eyes...
