my age of magic

Chapter 240 40. The Robe Flying in the Air

The moment my body lost balance, the gray box containing the magic apprentice robe was like a parachute bag in the sky. The silk magic robe with dark gray luster is like a loose fishing net, floating in the air.

The texture of the robe is so light and thin, it floats in the air like smoke and gauze.

A golden copper mage apprentice badge, like a yellow-orange gold coin, popped out of the box, and two seconds later, it rolled down on the granite steps next to the gazebo, making a "jingling" sound non-stop.The voice was so crisp and sweet. The front of the badge was engraved with the emblem of the Mage Guild, and the back was engraved with the magic broom that only magic apprentices were qualified to use. The entire badge was almost a circle smaller than an egg, because At the beginning, the crowd thought that a gold coin fell out of the box, so they all focused on it.

When the hexagonal shape of the badge was revealed, the sheriff's face was like a purple eggplant beaten by frost, his eyes were as wide as copper bells, and his mouth was opened like a bagel. After a third of a second, he Completely dumbfounded, the two things flying out of the air clearly showed the identity of the owner, who was a magic apprentice who had just participated in the magic awakening ceremony, obtained the status of a noble baron, and received a magic apprentice robe.

"Ah!" The people standing around looking like a flock of frightened birds began to flee in all directions. They didn't want to stand by a magic apprentice's side to watch the excitement when he was embarrassed, especially when he was wearing There is a very clear footprint on the lower abdomen of the soft leather inner armor.

And the murderer was as pale as paper with fright as if someone had cast a hold spell on him.

The sheriff was indeed stupid. I propped my hands on the ground lightly, got up from the ground, looked down at the footprints on my lower abdomen, stood up and walked up a few steps silently, and picked up the magic badge on the steps. I got up and gently wiped the dust on it. Although there was no dust on the badge that was polished very smooth, I still took the badge and walked slowly to the sheriff. I squeezed the badge with my fingers and rubbed it twice on the black leather uniform of the sheriff. Someone next to me picked up my magic robe with a wink, carefully put it in a box, and handed it to me with both hands. in front of the eyes.

"Your Honorable Mage, oh! Look, this must be a misunderstanding. I was so careless. When I got up to meet you again, I stumbled and kicked you!" Sweating profusely, he put a smile on his face with great difficulty, explaining his mistake just now.

I shook my head lightly, thinking to myself that this is where the charm of power lies!The sheriff had already begun to use actions to make up for his mistakes at this time.He turned his head ferociously, and looked at the leader of the hooligans who knew that something was wrong after chasing him, and fled to the distance hastily.

"You broom star, do you know what kind of enemy you have provoked? You dare to provoke a nobleman! Stop me!" The magistrate pulled out a two-foot-long soft leather whip from his waist, and stepped forward. He strode after him.

If at this time, I imagined myself as a hunter in the mountains, then this sheriff was just a hound under my feet, and he actually tried his best to chase the fleeing gangsters.And pulled out a copper whistle from under the neck, and blew it hard.

I raised my voice behind him and said: "Your Majesty, please don't leave your name behind when you do good deeds, chasing these bastards and never returning, I have firmly remembered your appearance, if I can't wait here You, then I will personally go to the Guard Hall to thank you for your help."

The sheriff, who was thinking of using this excuse to escape, heard my words, kicked the stone slab with his stepping leg, almost fell to the ground, and ran three minutes faster.When passing by the inner river bridge, he stuck to the railing of the bridge and shouted down: "Anyone who dares to fight here, I will go back to the guard hall for tea with you! Your grandma, Romi, you just jumped into the river, I I also know your piece of skin, and bring your group of men, and roll up to me quickly."

"What's the matter with you? Hasn't our big leader already talked to you? It's fine if you don't help us. Why do you help those homeless boys instead?" Romy stood knee-deep under the bridge. In the river, he held an iron rod as thick as an arm in his hand, raised his face, and asked loudly to the sheriff on the bridge with a look of incomprehension.

At this time, the sheriff was afraid that someone would stand in my face and say that he was in collusion with the gangsters.

At this time, the thug under the bridge, Romy, had already exposed that the sheriff had colluded with those arrogant gangsters in private. When the sheriff heard that Romy dared to say such a thing, his face flushed red, and even turned black and purple with anger. He jumped up and scolded loudly: "You boy, how dare you slander the administrative officials of El City, I will arrest you Send it to the tribunal, and you wait for the judgment of the arbitrators!".

The sound of whistles came one after another from a distance, which indicated that the sheriffs in other areas would quickly come to this side for support. Only when the sheriffs encountered something that could not be solved alone would they use this whistle to make a call. After the whistle blows, sheriffs from other areas will rush over immediately.

Romy felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere. He realized that something was very wrong. The leader who was supposed to enjoy this scene on the bridge had disappeared, and the sheriff who had colluded with him actually wanted to kill him without knowing him. These men caught up, and everything was reversed.

Romy began to smell a little bit of danger, so he threw the iron rod in his hand into the river in a very lonely manner.Then it jumped into the deep water area like a carp, and after a sudden dive, it was just a shallow water splash on the inland river, and then disappeared.

Romy's subordinates also followed closely, and jumped into the water one by one. After a few seconds, all the gangsters disappeared. At this time, the security officers who came to support from a distance It was long overdue.

A magistrate ran over panting, and saw that the place had calmed down. There was no dispute, only the shacks where the homeless children lived under the bridge were dilapidated as if they had been ransacked.This is not a big deal, and the few punks who were weak and weak were not killed, but they looked like they were repaired very miserably.

Sitting on the stone pavement of the Neihe Bridge, the ass was panting sharply and asked, "I said buddy, is it worth your old man blowing the whistle on such a small matter?"

"It's not a trivial matter. That guy Romy just escaped by diving. Brother, you are the old law and order in this area. You must have a way to help me find those boys. If I don't arrest those bastards today, my neck will die." The guy who went to eat doesn't know if he can keep it, you must help me!" The security officer who kicked me hurried over and said as he walked, it seemed that he rushed over at the first time The sheriff is his immediate boss. .

I patted the shallow shoe print on the abdomen of the soft armor, took the gray cardboard box that had been picked up again, and leaned on the stone railing by the bridge to look down. The beating was as miserable as a pig-headed man. They were lying in shallow water, and the surrounding water was already stained red with blood, but seeing that their chests were still rising and falling, even if they were lying in the water, they still knew how to breathe with their faces up. , It seems that there is nothing serious, I feel at ease, and I am thinking of going down from the pier to drag Taylor and the others out of the river.

Perhaps after a few words, the sheriff already knew the whole story, so the sheriff who rushed over looked at me meaningfully, and directly kicked the sheriff who kicked me forward. He tore off the police badge and walked straight to my side. He obviously had no fear of me, he just stared at me twice, and he already guessed that I was the child who just successfully awakened the magic pool from the awakening ceremony today. He stood in front of me, pondered for a while, and then said to me: "Our security department will give you a satisfactory explanation for this matter. I will arrest those bastards as soon as possible and obey your orders."

After speaking, he handed me the numbered police badge.

I didn't pick up the police badge, and said to him: "They live under the Neihe bridge. They used to be my friends, and they will be in the future. I don't want to see anyone come here to trouble them again. Please take care of them. I don't want to care too much about their fights, as long as they don't come and search the house like this, who would be in the mood to stand here and do nothing!"

After speaking, I took another look at the magistrate who just kicked me. I didn’t want to let him go so easily, so as not to think I was a good-tempered person later, so I said, “I never thought of smashing his job.” , but he kicked me just now, so I kicked him back, so we owe nothing to each other!"

"Since your Excellency is so straightforward, that's good! As long as I stay in the security hall for a day, I will protect these refugee shacks under this bridge!" The magistrate was also very surprised that I could expose this matter so easily. , hurriedly greeted his disheveled subordinate, and he deliberately looked at the chaotic intersection in the distance.

Other magistrates had begun to appear at the intersection, and other magistrates appeared one after another.At this time, the sheriff who kicked me came over in fear and gave me a cautious look.The old magistrate whispered a few words in his ear, and when he heard the old magistrate say what I thought, his heart hanging in his throat fell back to its original place.

The moment he was kicked from the bridge into the river by me, I could feel that the sheriff was very happy after screaming. Even the posture in which he fell into the water was very relaxed. Swim downriver and hunt down those thugs who escaped by water.

And those sheriffs who rushed over one after another were taken away by the old sheriff. It is said that they went to other blocks to hunt down those gangsters. I don't care about these. I am more worried about the safety of Taylor and the others.

Someone had already lifted Tai Luo and the others up from under the bridge. They were all seriously injured, with injuries all over their bodies.

Someone told them that I was a magic apprentice who had just awakened. When they faced me, the expressions on their faces were very unnatural. They even carefully watched my emotions. They regretted answering my questions respectfully, but But I would rather they laugh happily, and occasionally swearing is nothing, it is much better than standing there respectfully now, and they only answer when I ask a question.

Even though they were seriously injured, they stood in front of me enduring the pain and answered my questions seriously.

I felt a little sad and a little lost. I didn't think that after I got this robe, the first thing that happened was that I was about to lose two friends.I know that it is their fear of the nobles in their hearts that makes them unable to keep up with me. They choose to retreat, and the distance between me and them is getting farther and farther. The different identities between us are like a moat. Build a high wall in our friendship.

I sighed secretly in my heart. Standing in front of Munksy, I wanted to reach out and touch the corner of his swollen mouth, but I was so scared that he took a step back. The movement of the injured leg caused him to grin his mouth in pain. , but resisted not daring to make any sound.

His leg may have been hit by a blunt instrument, and he was limping when he walked. I didn't want his injury to become more serious, so I retracted my hand resentfully, smiled reluctantly, to ease my embarrassment, and asked : "Taylor, why don't we go to the temple and pray to those priests to perform magical spells to heal your wounds a little bit?"

Taylor shook his head again and again, and said no.

I couldn't even finish the rest of the sentence, and I had nothing to say.In the end, I can only say: "Then I'll go first, you guys take care of your wounds!"

The moment I turned to leave, I could even hear their breathing and heartbeat with my keen hearing. Munksy sat on the ground limply in relief, and exhaled lightly.I felt Tai Luo standing behind me hesitating to speak, at this moment, he didn't even have the courage to say thank you.

They are a group of vagrants without status, a group of people who like to live freely, but for those ridiculous freedoms, they have to give up registration in the administrative hall of El City, give up the application for long-term residence and give up the right to become residents of El City.They are a group of tramps without status, they don't have to serve in the army, and they don't have to dedicate their strength to the empire.At the same time, they also lost the right to participate in the awakening ceremony.

Having the right of nobility, but losing two good friends, I don't know whether it is a loss or a gain.I was very depressed.I walked down the Neihe bridge with my head down, and under the reflection of the setting sun in the west, my shadow was stretched very long...

Overlooking the small two-story building next to the street, through the chaotic crowd, I could clearly see Fanny standing by the door, looking up at my street.Her eyes couldn't catch my figure in the crowd, showing an anxious look.

My heart that has cooled down a little bit is like being held in my arms by a pair of warm hands. This is a warm picture...
