my age of magic

Chapter 1605 154. All the guard camps in the world are like bears

dong dong dong...

The sound of horseshoes sounded like drums from the long street in the distance.

The cavalry of the Knights of the Qiyan City Guard Battalion finally rushed out of the guard post, as slow as ever.

The knights rode bright-coloured old Bollian horses and wore standard light armor. They quickly came to the Champs-Elysees Avenue and surrounded the manor of the Angus Uttas brothers. They lined up [-] knights. They held five-meter-long knight spears in their hands, and pointed their sharp points at the fence of the manor. They held knight shields in the other hand, and stood neatly on the street.

The manor was shrouded in a thick layer of white mist, and the hoarfrost on the bluestone slabs in the thick fog had spread to the street, and the bursts of cold breath made it feel like winter here.

The knights did not rashly rush into the dense fog. A few chief knights in silver armor stood at the front. They watched the gate of the manor appear and disappear in the rolling fog and discussed countermeasures, but it seemed that they did not want to Venture into the fog-shrouded estate.

Holding shields in their hands, the two knights rode their horses slowly approaching the main gate of the manor. When the horses stepped on the ground covered with frost and snow, they refused to go any further. They stopped in place and their hooves kept kicking. There was a crisp sound of 'tapping, treading' on the slate floor.

At this time, there was a series of explosions in the manor, followed by a roar when the huge building collapsed. The cold wave in the manor came in waves like waves, and the two Gu Bolai horses seemed a little uneasy. Back off, even if the knight on the saddle tightened the reins and calmed down the two war horses, the two war horses would not be close to the cold mist no matter what.

The knight chiefs got together again, discussed again, and simply asked the two knights who were close to the thick fog to shout into the manor:

"Listen, people inside, you have been surrounded by the Knights of the Qiyan City Guard Battalion. I ask you to put down your weapons and stop making fearless resistance..."

……

The ice wall in the manor has completely collapsed.

The courtyard was strewn with the corpses of guardians and lizard war slaves, and the blood condensed into pools of dark red marks on the ground.

Those slave traders who dared to resist were basically killed by us, and some manor guards chose to surrender.

They were forced to drop their weapons and leather armor, and gathered in an open space by the pool.

According to Justus's thinking, these slave traders should be killed to avoid future troubles.

However, Yingli believes that as a nobleman of the Green Empire, he should not kill unarmed people. These manor guards should be convicted by the ruling of Qiyan City, and they can only be accepted if they are found guilty. judgment.

In the slave enclosure in the outer courtyard, there were still some lizard slaves who neither resisted nor escaped. They may have been tightly huddled together due to the cold, watching the situation outside in fear.

All the forces that dared to resist in the inner courtyard were wiped out. Only some women, children, and maids remained in the manor. They hid in the house and trembled. Some children had hatred in their eyes and wanted to rush out of the house. To be a warrior is to be hugged desperately by women and hide in the most inconspicuous room.

Now that Angus and Uttas have been captured by us, I decided to stop this revenge action, and then the Marquis Norman, the consul of Strange Rock City, and the Council Hall of Strange Rock City will deal with this matter. At this time, those guard battalions The knights gathered outside the manor, and the voice full of justice was heard far away in the night.

The frost rune boards spread outside the manor were also taken back.

The barbarian slaves carried some booty looted from the manor and returned to Xinliu Valley through the portal. In addition to looting all the stored food in the cellar of the manor, some barbarian slaves actually carried potted tropical green plants in the garden. , Even the pots and the five-meter-high banana trees were all moved back to Xinliu Valley.

Annie looked at these barbarian slaves with a puzzled expression. They wore Nacoma black iron armor, carried a heavy crossbow, and had an exquisite moonblade ax hanging from their waists. Some of them couldn't understand what these barbarian slaves were thinking What it is, grass seeds and dung are all possible, but the most unlikely thing is the brain.

They treat precious oil paintings, gold and silver utensils, sophisticated weapons and equipment, and young and beautiful women as nothing. Instead, they loot the food in the cellar.

"Why do you think they want to remove these banana trees?" Annie couldn't control her curiosity and asked Sister Su beside her.

"How would I know..." Su was still angry with Anne at this time, unwilling to talk to her sister, and there was a trace of anger in her tone.

The barbarian slaves originally wanted to take the corpses of the lizard war slaves and manor guards back to the underground caves of Xinliu Valley to eat, but this was strictly prohibited by Justus and the tauren Luka, so they moved The goal was to search for all edible things in the manor of the Angus Uttas brothers. Fortunately, there is a row of stables behind the manor, and the food in the cellar is also very rich.

The manor shrouded in thick fog became quiet as the barbarian slaves quickly evacuated.

……

Yingli and I stood on the watchtower, while the majestic knights of the guard battalion on the street were kept out of the fog and never dared to break into the dense fog.

Several magic flares appeared in the night sky, which meant that the Law Enforcement Team of Qiyan City Magic Union was coming quickly.

The mobility of magicians is more convenient in the city. They can fly at will on the magic handle.

However, at night, if you don't want to hit the spire or roof, or hang on a tree or light pole, the team leader will basically light this cheap magic flare to open the way when flying. These flares can be used in complex environments. to the role of lighting.

Ying Li exhaled lightly, and whispered to me: "It seems that the law enforcement team of the Magic Union has been dispatched this time, let's go!"

As the 'Frost' rune boards were all retracted, the dense fog around the manor quickly dissipated.

Justus, Katerina, and Tauren Luka walked up the archery building one after another. Justus nodded to me and said, "The rest has been dealt with."

"Okay, let's go out of town!"

I stood on the arrow tower and tore open a 'directed teleportation scroll'.

The portal opened slowly, and countless electric arcs made the space crack into the shape of a door. When the arcs stabilized a bit, and just after the portal stabilized, Katerina walked into the portal first.

Erica stood at the portal with a complicated expression.

She hesitated and asked me, "Are you a member of the Astrologer's Guild?"

"Uh, no, I joined the Inscriber's Guild. Senior Dylan taught me how to make the 'Oriented Teleportation Scroll'." I smiled faintly and said to Senior Erika.

Seeing Sura leading Annie into the portal and disappearing, Erika-senpai hesitated for a moment, and then took a step into the portal.

The ice fog outside gradually dissipated, and the outline of the manor gradually emerged.

I walked into the portal, and the moment I stepped into the portal, a feeling of being watched surged from the bottom of my heart, but my vision suddenly went dark, and my vision recovered instantly. I was already standing in the dense forest outside the city. After waiting for a few seconds outside the portal, the power of lightning sent to the portal was reduced, and the portal became a little unstable, ready to collapse at any time.

Just when everyone thought I would put away the portal, I turned around and got into the portal again, returning the same way.

The moment I got out of the portal, I clearly saw a gray figure hiding in the shadow of the watchtower, without any hesitation, I held the deep cold crystal dagger tightly, and the other hand held Hammer of the Raider, chasing after the gray figure.

Three layers of ice shield surrounded my body, and just after I took two steps, Katerina chased after me.

I turned my head and glanced at her. She understood what I meant without explaining, and rushed towards the direction of my gaze. In the shadow of the watchtower, Katerina was holding a struggling thin assassin in her hand.

"Let's go!" I lowered my voice and urged Katerina.

Katerina easily subdued the thin figure, pinched her under her ribs, and followed me through the portal again.

When I came outside the city, I closed the portal without hesitation.

Although we are not very familiar with the tropical rainforest outside Qiyan City, this does not mean that we lack the experience of marching in the jungle at night. After we determined the direction, we quickly moved away from Qiyan City.

……

The raid came to an end in less than an hour. After Angus and Uttas brothers were captured by us, the barbarian slaves were withdrawn to Xinliu Valley. Surrounded by the Knights of the Guard Battalion, we directly opened a portal and went outside the city.

This is probably what the knights of the guard battalion never thought of, we would actually leave through the portal.

Taking advantage of the darkness, we drove for a while in the forest.

But before dawn, Justus opened up a clearing in the dense rainforest, and the Tauren Luka threw the Angus Uttas brothers who were tied on their shoulders like rice dumplings under a big tree, and then Skillfully setting up the simple marching tent, Helena and Becky quickly chased after Luka to help.

To be honest, I'm not very good at building tents, because in the black forest on the Hierro plane, every time I camp and rest, there are dedicated Hierro natives who build tree houses for me.

Next to them, Annie brought Su and senior sister Erika to build a tent.

Katerina and I squatted under a tree, staring at the thin girl whose hands and feet were bound, she was wearing a gray linen dress, her small face was painted with charcoal black, and she stared at a pair of big eyes, pitiful Xi Xi looked at us, and I could see fear and anxiety in her eyes.

"Hey, what's your name?" I sat on a thick tree root out of the ground and asked the thin girl.

Katerina squatted in front of the girl, and cut off the ropes tied to her hands and feet with a dagger. She gently rubbed her red wrist, and said weakly, "Amy."

I continued to ask: "Speak! Why do you still follow us?"

Judging from Amy's attire and grooming, she doesn't seem to be a relative of Angus Uttas, or even a maid in the manor. She is wearing a very old gray linen long trousers. Although worn out, it is not bad. It is clean and fits well. It looks like a child from a poor family.

Seemingly feeling that we don't have too much hostility, Amy's big eyes became more agile.

"I didn't even think about following you, Mister Sorcerer. I just sneaked to the manor of the slave owner, Master Angus, to inquire about my brother's whereabouts." Amy secretly glanced at Carter while rubbing her ankle. The dagger tied to Lin Na's thigh showed envy in her eyes.

"Aren't you from the manor?" I asked her.

Amy shook her head vigorously, raised a hand, and began to swear to the gods.

But now that the temples have been forced to close, I think the gods are not binding enough on this kind of oath at this time, and it is far less convincing than a magic contract.

"Your brother is at Angus' estate?" I asked again.

"No, he has nothing to do with the slave owner Angus." The girl hugged her knees tightly, and it looked like she was only a small one. She continued: "A few days ago he and two magicians After they left the city together, they never came back, and I want to find him."

Her voice was a little hoarse, Katerina handed her a water bottle, she took it without hesitation, filled her stomach with clear water, her stomach made a gurgling sound instead.

She looked at Katerina in embarrassment, licked her lips, and handed the water bottle back in embarrassment.

Katerina smiled softly, and stretched out her hand to help the girl straighten the messy hair on her head. As if by magic, there was an extra half piece of white bread in her hand, and she handed it to the girl Amy.

Amy's eyes widened, she stared at the white bread in front of her, hesitated for a second, then reached out and grabbed the bread, stuffing it into her mouth.

It wasn't until she put all the half of the bread into her stomach and drank Katerina's entire pot of water in one breath, that she breathed a sigh of relief, and her eyes glowed with a new look.

She is like a child who has been starving for a long time, occasionally eating a full meal, her stomach is so distended that she dare not move, she can only carefully lean against the big tree, her eyes are full of unprecedented satisfaction.

Amy said to us: "I heard from my brother that the slave owner, Master Angus, has recently set up traps specifically for foreign adventurers."

"They often deceive the new adventurous group that came to Strange Rock City to go out of the city, and let a group of lizard slaves pretend to be the warriors of the lizard tribe, kill the adventurers and plunder their property."

"Although these guys are hateful, sometimes they won't kill the guides. At most, they will be arrested and locked up for a while. I thought about going to the manor to find out if they caught my brother."

"My lord magician, I know you must be demon hunters. You came to the slave owners Angus and Uttas specifically to find the missing adventurers?"

My heart moved slightly, and I blurted out and asked:

"What's your brother's name?"

The girl Amy answered without thinking:
"Nathaniel!"
