my age of magic

Chapter 220 20. Kai who surfaced
The reed marsh stretches for several kilometers along the shore of Yuhu Lake. It is like a maze when you get into it. It is not all low-lying wetlands, but there are dry soil ridges and mud nests, but the shallow water area is the most you can see. , most of the reeds grow in shallow water, running in the reed pond is a very hard work, because not only have to push aside the dense reeds, but also overcome the resistance brought by the silt under the feet, every time you move Footsteps, both feet will be deeply inserted into the mud, and then pulled out with difficulty like pulling a carrot, and sometimes the boots will sink into it.

The more difficult the place is, the more beneficial it is for me. As long as it gets dark, I can escape. No one can find someone who can hide in the shadows in the dark.

It is not an easy task to get rid of Linna who is always with her.Of course, this assassin who had just walked out of Sloit City was tortured by my magic even without the intention to kill. Her face was gloomy, and her anger was almost on the verge of erupting. But good upbringing makes her movements still very elegant, her speed is almost several times that of mine, and I don't know what method she used to lock me.

At first, I thought that she was able to catch up with me many times because I had a special smell on my body, but later I found out that this was not the case, because even though I rolled countless times in the mud of the reed pond, my body was covered with mud Afterwards, diving into the muck and breathing only through a hollow reed stalk, she was still able to find me.Although it took her a lot of effort to dig me out of the mud, she made it very clear that she came straight, she must have some kind of tracking method that I didn't know about.

However, in the process of chasing me, she repeatedly stepped on my frost scroll trap, often covered in frost all over her body and angrily chasing after me to reason. She also has a headache for my endless magic skills.Although she is a very powerful fighter, she lacks experience in wild survival, and she doesn't know what a trap is, and she doesn't even have the heart to guard against it.However, it is clear that she seems to know some of these precautionary knowledge, as long as she has made a mistake before, she will never make the same mistake a second time.

These most common frost scrolls are all drawn with ordinary milky white ink. Milky white ink is sold in the magic pharmacy in El City, but it is not cheap. After I arrived in El City, I have sent all the gold coins on my body to Sister Guoguo’s younger sisters don’t have much silverware on them. The pocket money that Leonte and Fanny give me usually saves me only two or three months to buy a small bottle. Even the leftovers of the magic parchment here are expensive. These high prices make me miss the Gludin Town on the Pai Plateau. The materials and herbs of the orc tribe are really cheap.

Every time I saw her clenched her fists tightly and then loosened them, I also knew that as an assassin with her ruthless skills, she didn't attack me.In fact, she has been imagining that as a magician, my physical strength may be exhausted, and she will be able to force me to submit at that time.My physical strength is much better than she expected.

Like an otter, I cautiously poked my head out of the puddle, and saw that the surrounding reed ponds were quiet, only the wind blowing over the lake made the green reeds rise and fall one after another like wheat waves. The surroundings are very safe. I turned over a water flower in the puddle, swam into the shallow water like a big loach with both hands, and stood up from the inside with both hands holding the mud in the water. This time, in order to escape Linna's pursuit, I wanted to I came up with a countermeasure, that is, in the shallow water area of ​​the reed pond, I cast the magic of "walking on water" on myself, and I was able to run like flying in the reed pond. After diving into the fish lake for a few hundred meters, he emerged from a reed pond.

I can almost imagine the helpless expression on her face. After several contacts, I found that this Linna is very unsuitable to be an assassin. First of all, what she lacks most is a killing heart, which is what I can do. The reason why I escaped under her hands several times, otherwise, as long as she is a little bit more cruel, I wouldn't even have a half chance.

But now it seems that he finally got rid of her.I was secretly happy in my heart, and after I walked eastward along the reed pond, I found a secluded place and dried my wet clothes on the hot sand, while I hid under the tree secretly. To make up for sleep, I fell asleep without knowing it.

Maybe it was because I consumed a lot of mental power and magic power last night, which made me extremely tired. Later, I met Linna who was chasing me, and played cat and mouse games with her for most of the day, and I was exhausted by the end. , after confirming that she really got rid of her, he felt completely relaxed, and after falling asleep all of a sudden, he completely lost his vigilance.

When I woke up, the sky was already full of stars, I struggled to wake up from my sleep, and found that I was lying under a tree without any precautions, and slept for a long time. caught.

I looked up at the star map. This habit was developed in the wasteland. I would look at the star map every night. Slowly, over time, I gradually got to know the many stars in the night. Leant liked me. The study of astrology is still very supportive. Astrology is an advanced subject in Green Empire. He thinks that I should indeed have some hobbies, and keeps instilling in me how interesting the clubs in school are. The astronomy club that studies the stars, Leant told me that after school, you must join a club that you are interested in, where you can foresee many friends with the same interests and hobbies.

Seeing the two galaxies in the night sky scattered like a figure-eight on the east and west sides of the night sky, I knew that the night had not been too long.

I feel a little hungry in my stomach, so it is impossible to hunt in the dark night, so I just dug out two pieces of dry cheese and half a piece of hard bread in the magic pocket, and threw them into my stomach full, I still have to take advantage of Traveling in the dark, only at night do I feel safe.

After I packed my luggage, I continued to prepare for my journey.

However, I always feel that something is missing, as if I have forgotten something important.After checking the luggage several times, he found that nothing was missing, so he continued on his way with doubts.

There is no way in this wilderness.In the dark night, even if you stand on a high place, you can't see the distant scene clearly. The only thing that can tell the direction is the star map. Only by walking in the direction guided by the star map can you not lose your way.I fumbled and walked out of the jungle surrounding the fish lake. After climbing over two mountains, a familiar scene finally appeared around me. At least I have some impressions of this place in my memory.

Along the way, I didn't meet any savages. I guessed that those savages only dared to move in the outskirts of El City.

Thinking of how I was chased by those barbarians the night before, I felt very annoyed. I should fight back. At least I have magic, which will make me invincible. If I can't fight, at least I can escape.I touched my head in frustration, thinking why I didn't take advantage of the night to try the strength of those barbarians!A great opportunity was missed by me.

At this time, I suddenly remembered what I had missed: the colorful rain butterfly on the tip of Linna's hair!
I actually forgot to tell her that I wanted to drive that butterfly away, or just crush it to death.This can also explain how I got rid of her so easily. It's not that I got rid of her. It's clear that the Colorful Rain Butterfly General did me a favor. On the contrary, I was a little heavy and hesitant. When I thought of all kinds of things when Linna was chasing me, I wanted to turn my head and go back to see her situation.

But I was also worried that she would catch me directly when she saw me. Maybe after so long, she had lost her patience and just waited for me to show up, catch me, then ignore me and take me back to her to the team.But I don't want them to look at me like a white mouse. I still have my own work to do, I cherish everything now, and I will protect her two younger sisters for Sister Guoguo, at least I want to watch them grow up with my own eyes, and watch them find their own happiness. These are the things that Sister Guoguo wanted to do, but now I need to do them. I don’t even dare to appear in front of them, but all the time I Don't pay attention to them.I also want to find that evil mage Montetroya, and send him to where he should go when I am qualified to challenge him.

Therefore, I don’t want to be noticed by others. I just want to do everything well silently. This year is the fifth year, and it is also the age when I participated in the magic awakening ceremony and school. Sister Guo, so this time, even though Fanny was so worried and reluctant to part with her, I still came out.

I didn't expect to encounter so many troubles, and finally couldn't hold back, and rescued Moras and his daughter.Even more coincidentally, he helped the guard group of Sloit City escape from the siege of the barbarians. I think now, those barbarians may not know how those guards escaped from the blockade. Circled.

I forced myself to walk towards El City, but I couldn't take another step after only two steps. I finally closed my eyes and patted my forehead with the palm of my hand, saying to myself: "This is the last time, the last time." once!"

As I said that, I trotted all the way back to the original road, thinking to myself: Lina, I hope you are okay!

I started to grope backward along the road I had traveled, and the pictures in my memory were dug out from the golden sea of ​​spirit. The photos in those fragments were connected into a group of beautiful pictures.It is not easy to go back. I have found barbarians lurking in dark places several times. If I hadn't dealt with them several times, I would have been discovered by this time.

I don't know where so many barbarians emerged from. Their camp has completely occupied the vicinity of Weitang. During the day, the place is still empty, but now, it is no longer so easy to sneak into Star Lake.I turned into a puff of shadow like light smoke, and slowly and safely passed through the barbarian post.

Just by the lake, the barbarians actually built a simple camp. The barbarian tents are very simple. They only need to cut down a few huge oak logs to build a triangular house, and then nail the outside with a lot of cowhide. A huge tent, I slowly moved into the camp against the shadowy area at the bottom of the wall, and now I have been able to remain invisible for half an hour, and I have not found Linna anywhere by the lake However, at the last place I left, I found some traces of fighting. I think Linna was caught by these barbarians in all likelihood, and then rushed into the barbarian's camp desperately.

These savages have a very keen sixth sense. These savages are three meters tall and huge. Their strong thighs are thicker than my waist. They look a little irritable. When they walk back and forth, their fat is trembling. I miss them Probably they don’t like to eat talents. It’s not that the barbarians are not very interested in the women of the Green Empire. Their physique is not suitable for slaves in the north. For those barbarians, they are just capable of giving birth to human males. Tools for kids.

Walking to the center of the camp, dozens of temporary tents were set up here. These tents were all pieced together with brand-new oak that smelled of tree oil. Those barbarians in twos and threes gathered outside the tents. What surprised me was that I found human figures among the savage crowd. They were some well-equipped warriors, and they were responsible for guarding several tents that belonged to them.

Open the cowhide curtain of the No. 13 tent, and the cowhide curtain seems to be blown a little by the wind.No one inside noticed that I was eavesdropping on their conversation. I lay my body down in a dark place, slowly took on a human form, and quietly listened to all the news about Linna.

Those human soldiers changed into ordinary clothes and chatted with each other.

I was attracted by these topics, and turned my head to look inside. Those soldiers were talking and laughing about a topic: "I heard that the plans of those barbarians have failed, and the reason for our visit this time is meaningless. What a miserable night in this foul-smelling camp."

"I heard that something went wrong in the castle, and the two magicians also escaped!" Another soldier piled his armor by his feet, and whispered to his companion.

"Do you think our mutiny will succeed this time, and will many people die?" asked the soldier who spoke first.

Another soldier hesitated before answering: "Probably not, as long as one party surrenders, this struggle for power will stop. Is there any need to distinguish between them? They will both be Master of Sloit City. I don’t understand, what are these barbarians doing here? Don’t they think it’s not bad enough for them to harm our homeland? This group of slave hunters should be sent to hell. My aunt’s whole family died here In the hands of savages!"

"But I think Baron Kay is playing for real this time. Maybe he really wants to be the only master of Sloit City! However, it is a failure to lure wolves into the house like this. These barbarians are nothing but bigger. .” The soldier who spoke first also complained.

The ins and outs of the matter are only in these few sentences, and it has already been made clear.The mysteries of these savages are also solved.

It seems that Baron Kay directed all of these barbarians. I don’t know who Baron Kay is. It should be a certain nobleman in Sloitt, maybe he should be familiar with the female knight I saved.

I continued to look into the tent, and saw Linna tied up in the corner of the tent, with several huge boxes piled up around her, but she was already awake at this moment, unexpectedly, she was blinking at me at this time .
