my age of magic

Chapter 474
Mount Antiea does not refer to the steep mountain where the temple is located, but the mountains within a hundred miles around the temple. There are many dangerous peaks and deep valleys in this mountain range.The tauren Luka and I are located in the ancient road pass between the valleys in the westernmost part of the Antiya Mountains. Looking west from here, there is a vast hilly area.On both sides of the valley where the ancient road is located, there are some peaks piercing the sky like blades. Although these peaks are not tall and majestic, they are very steep and difficult to climb.

This winding and narrow ancient road is not long, only a few kilometers away at best.However, this is one of the few outlets in the western mountains of Antioch.

The severe winter night was extraordinarily cold, and the air he exhaled covered the hair on his face with a layer of hoarfrost. Even the tauren Luka covered his body with a thick cotton coat. Luka walked in front. Do your best to shield me from the bitter cold wind.Braving the severe cold, Luka and I returned to the entrance of the valley. I had to set some traps here before Cynthia and the others came out of the valley.

With a painful expression on my face, I took out the rolls of 'Frost Nova' scrolls from my magic pocket. The high-grade materials and ink consumed by these magic scrolls cost more than 50 magic crystals before and after, which was almost two months' accumulation. All income from the magic grocery store.Originally, Marvin and I wanted to sell these 'Frost Nova' scrolls in the store. This kind of first-level high-level magic scrolls are very expensive in the market. I heard that I became a falcon and planned to go hunting outside the city. Killing the barbarians, Marvin was worried about my safety and asked me to carry as many scrolls as possible.

Now the magical herbs and ores produced by Xinliu Valley are continuously transported out by the orcs, and there are also some precious woods. The business of the magic grocery store is booming now, and the cooperation with the laboratory of the Magic Academy has also been on the right track. With some There is still some surplus in exchanging low-level magic herbs for magic scrolls.The blacksmith shop has also made nearly a hundred magic rune tablets one after another. The surplus of the magic grocery store is enough for my normal expenses for learning inscriptions.

Luka climbed up the high cliff at the mouth of the valley, observed the situation in the valley by the moonlight, and stood guard on the icy boulder against the biting cold wind.

I started to mix these 'Frost Nova' scrolls and 'Frost' scrolls at the entrance of this valley several hundred meters away. The barbarians are different from those monsters. Put the 'frost trap' on the ground as casually as usual.

Gently scrape off the snow, place the scroll in the snow pit, put the beast clip on it, break off the reed of the beast clip, and then condense a layer of half-inch thick ice cover on it, The trap was completely protected, and then the snow around the ice cover was smoothed out before a trap was set up.

These ice shields are completely simplified versions of 'ice shields'. These circular ice shields are usually formed by simply condensing water using the technique of gathering water. However, in winter, the procedure of condensing ice can be saved. On the other hand, it becomes much simpler.

The strength of these ice shields is just enough to carry the weight of ordinary people. Ordinary people can safely pass through the ice shields, but those three-meter-high barbarians and tauren Luka will easily crush the ice shields And trigger the trap mechanism inside the ice cover.

In this extremely cold weather, the condensed ice shield will always exist, and more than 20 'Frost Nova' scrolls and more than 50 enhanced 'Frost' scrolls have been buried in the snow one after another. Tauren Luka had already sent a signal to me on the high cliff at this time, but he didn't expect that before my trap was completely set up, he discovered that there was an abnormal situation on the other side of the valley.

The Tauren's tall body slid down the steep rock wall, pointed to the mountain pass on the other side of the valley, and shouted to me nervously: "Jia, someone is coming over there!"

He decisively gave up setting traps, got up from the snow, and quickly ran to the mouth of the valley.

I couldn't see the situation on the other side of the ancient road from where I was, but I didn't sit idle, but started to take out my wand, and quickly drew a blue magic circle. The wall appeared in front of me uninterruptedly. This kind of ice and snow weather has a certain increase in my ice magic.The rich ice element in the air allows me to make ice walls nearly a third faster than before, and the created ice walls appear larger and harder.

When these ice walls, which were ten meters long, three meters high, and two meters wide, appeared in front of me, I pointed to the gap between the ice wall and the stone wall, and said to Luka the Tauren: "Hey, buddy, help me close those gaps." Block it with stones."

I know it's a bit difficult for Luka the tauren, but I don't have time to make a perfect ice wall, and I have to ask him to help me with some details.The tauren Luka is the kind of simple and honest old cow who never knows how to refuse, he said slightly in a rough dress: "Got it!"

He walked directly to the rock pile at the mountain pass, carried a stone the size of a millstone on his back, walked to the pass, and stuffed the stone into the gap between the stone wall and the ice wall.

Luka's doing this is obviously a drop in the bucket. I saw that there is a huge gap between the ice wall and the stone wall. Even if a dozen large stones are put in, the big gap cannot be filled.Seeing Luka's moving boulders, and seeing the crowd slowly approaching us in the distance, I was frowning for a while, and suddenly I saw a few big trees beside the valley, and a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, With a new idea in mind, he quickly pointed to the apple trees and said to Luka: "Use branches, use those branches to fill the gaps, and then fill them with snow!

The spell 'Ice Wall' consumes a lot of mana for me. After all, I am only a seventh-level magic apprentice.

My magic pool is almost full, and I can only make three ice walls at once, but fortunately, my magic recovery speed is very fast. The magic elements are like a little bit of fine dust, constantly gathering in the stone drum totem.

And the mana in each node in my body is running at full speed along the meridians of my body, forming a vortex in my body. As long as the ice element from the outside world moves within three feet around my body, it will be absorbed by the power of the vortex. , This wonderful feeling makes me feel a little bit of coolness, those are the ice elements in the surrounding space.

Maybe it's because of this strange phenomenon, coupled with the effects of 'heating' and 'mana recovery', that I made five ice walls in one go, and I felt that my magic was almost exhausted. I immediately sat on the snow, Force yourself into a state of 'meditation' and quickly restore mana.

According to my instructions, Luka smashed all the trees, and then dragged the big tree directly up the pass and filled it into the gap in the ice wall.

A quarter of an hour later, my mana recovered, and I saw Luka the tauren, steaming all over his body, shoveling snow frantically into the gaps in the ice wall.

From the valley in the distance, there were shouts, wailing, cursing, fighting, and even flashes of fire. I guess those should be the fireball skills of magicians.Those men who escaped from the valley burst out their final potential and ran desperately towards the valley mouth. Maybe they thought that once they rushed out of the valley mouth and scattered into the hills, they might still have a chance of survival, just for this With little hope, these people who were captured by the barbarians and regained their freedom began to run wildly.

Hundreds of people squeezed into the narrow ancient road, as if a handful of black sesame seeds were randomly scattered in this ancient road. They stumbled and fled to this side. You can tell by the staggering posture of those people when they run, their His physical strength was squeezed to the point where he was almost exhausted.

There are still some vigorous figures fighting with the barbarians in the back, and the barbarians are constantly chasing up. If they rush into the camp of the fleeing human slaves, they will be killed by the falcons at any cost. Those barbarians With an angry expression, he fell unwillingly on this ancient road. In the chaos, no one would care who killed the barbarian.

It seemed that the battle had been going on for a long time, and those soldiers mixed in the crowd were exhausted. If there were no barbarians approaching, their walking posture would be even more awkward than these fleeing civilians.

I didn't bother to take a closer look at the battle situation, and quickly condensed the ice layer, filling Luka with great difficulty into the gaps between the branches and the ice and snow stone walls, and there were huge gaps on the left and right sides of the valley mouth. Sweat still oozes from his forehead.

This pass is six to seventy meters wide, and we only left a ten-meter-wide passage in the center, and blocked the rest with a huge ice wall.I need to make a total of seven ice walls connected together to block the entire pass, and leave a passage in the center, so the ice wall here is a bit like a trumpet mouth.The further you go inside, the smaller the exit.

After condensing and finishing the sixth ice wall, I found the spirit of water element in the form of Sister Guoguo squatting quietly beside me. She watched me curiously when I casted the 'ice wall'. At that time, Sister Guoguo's water elemental spirit imitated my movements by my side and drew a half magic pattern circle in front of her body. Although the magic pattern circle finally collapsed, I was so surprised that I almost swallowed it. With her tongue out, she can actually control these ice magic elements in the air.

I said to myself: I don't know if it's Sister Guoguo's powerful water magic talent, or if the water elemental spirit is born with the ability to comprehend water or ice magic.

The three-meter-high ice wall can only stop the footsteps of ordinary people, and it has no effect on human fighters, let alone those strong barbarians who are more than three meters high, so the ice wall must be raised. Increase it to more than nine meters, so I need to build up three layers of ice walls. In addition, the foundation may be unstable, and the ice wall will fall apart with a slight bump.

Luka and I climbed onto the three-meter-high ice wall, continued to cast magic, and piled up a huge ice wall with the fastest speed. Watching a huge ice wall appear in the field of vision, people who fled from the valley People were completely panicked, and some even collapsed on the spot, slumped on the snow.

The ordinary civilians who ran at the front were only a few hundred meters away from the pass, and I could clearly see the situation behind the entire team. A new army of barbarians had already caught up behind them, and the human warriors immediately fell into a bitter fight, constantly Soldiers rushed out from the crowd and joined the battle group. Correspondingly, more and more barbarians came up from behind. There were already four barbarians rushing up together, and then three more barbarians joined the battle group one after another. .

Dozens of falcons of different professions were struggling with seven furious savages. Those savages swung stone sticks six to seven meters long with both hands.Seven life-and-death barbarians stirred up the rear of the team like boiling water, tumbling non-stop.

More than 30 soldiers were in a hurry to deal with the barbarians who joined hands. When they approached Taniguchi, the soldiers had no fighting spirit, and only wanted to rush out quickly to see a vast sea and sky.

Their murderous intentions had already dissipated, and they avoided the barbarian's explosive stone sticks one after another, scattered around and fought, delaying time, as if they were waiting for the civilians to escape from the pass, and everyone left together.

Be careful with every step you take in front of crazy barbarians.

There are still barbarians rushing over from the ancient road in the distance. If those new forces also rush over, the battle line on the human race's side will collapse in an instant.

Strong arrows were constantly being shot from the crowd. I thought that Wei En must be hiding among them, trying to find Cynthia in the crowd, but unfortunately she couldn't be seen in the chaos.

Luka stood at the gap in the ice wall, waving his red cloak vigorously to make himself look more eye-catching. Facing the howling north wind, he shouted loudly on the six-meter-high ice wall: "Hurry up!" Run towards the middle, only the middle part of the ice wall has an exit, the rest of the place has been sealed with ice, run towards me!"

A ranger with a hunting bow quickly rushed up to the ice wall, and said to the archer who was running up behind him: "The archer, hurry up to the ice wall and prepare to meet other companions. We must stop these barbarians at all costs." Inside Mount Antiea!"

Hearing the ranger's loud shout, several figures jumped out of the fleeing crowd and climbed up the six-meter-high ice wall with hands and feet. The arrows were carried on the longbow, aiming at the seven barbarians who were chasing up from behind.

A female archer with a bumpy figure ran up to me in surprise. She was carrying a heavy crossbow behind her back. At this moment, the quiver was empty, but she was holding an alloy bow in her hand. Seeing that I took the No.15 A wall of ice was built, and she trembled slightly in her throat: "Jia, why didn't you leave?"

It's Wei En. I haven't seen her for a few hours. She is already in a state of embarrassment like a refugee. Her leather armor is covered with muddy water. Seeing her sweat dripping down her face, I know she must have experienced a lot of trouble. Hard work!
At this time, hundreds of people of the human race gathered along the edge of the ice wall to the center of the ancient pass, and fled the valley in panic.

Seeing someone running out smoothly, hundreds of refugees once again burst out with new potential, rushing to the temporary pass built with ice walls, and the ten-meter-wide passageway suddenly seemed extremely crowded.

I took out the long-barreled thorium shotgun from my magic pocket, held it in my hand, looked at Wei En with some pride and said, "I'm here to meet you, where is Cynthia?"

Wei En stared at me with fiery eyes, and did not answer my question. She came up and punched me on the shoulder, and then stretched out her hands to hold me tightly in her arms, feeling a little moved "Jia, you are such a fool!"
