my age of magic

Chapter 521 19. The taste of privilege
Such a majestic city, which is one-third larger than Sluit City, was built on the southern slope of Debariloche Mountain.The city of San Carlos has always been known as the capital of industry. More than half of the dwarf artisans in the empire are gathered here. It is said that the casting technology level of San Carlos City is comparable to that of the main cities of the seven kings in the dwarf kingdom.

All kinds of refined metal ingots are abundant here. There are many magic rune plates in the city of El, all of which come from the blacksmith workshop here. The magic rune plates produced here are very evenly plated, and the inscription masters prefer this kind of good quality rune Rune metal plate, using this rune metal plate to engrave the magic circle, the success rate will be higher.

Generally speaking, if you want to become the most junior inscription master, you will probably go through these few steps. The first is to continuously draw magic scrolls to improve your success rate in drawing magic patterns. The success rate of drawing the magic circle has increased to more than 70.00%. This shows that this magician has a steady hand in engraving magic patterns and has the potential to become an inscription master.

I remember that the Yerkes scholar stopped being an inscriber at the beginning. It was precisely because the success rate of drawing magic scrolls could not exceed the 50.00% mark that it was impossible for the Yerkes scholar to become an excellent inscriber in his life.

If you want to become a junior inscription master, you must pick up a magic engraving pen and engrave the most basic magic rune metal plate. At this point, magicians need more resources to buy rune metal plates so that they can be used in runes. You must know that rune metal plates are much more expensive than magic parchment. Many magicians who are qualified to become inscription masters will have the support of very powerful noble families or financial groups behind them.

The last step to become a junior inscription master is, for each magician, it is very detailed divided into three major directions, namely: scroll masters who are good at making magic scrolls, masters who are good at designing magic pattern constructions, and masters who are good at A magic-weave master who engraves the magic-weave circle on the body of a warrior or magician.

Many inscribers' promotion paths are inseparable from the city of San Carlos, because the highest-quality rune metal plates are produced here, and this is the most indispensable resource for inscribers on the road to promotion.

In order to avoid shocking eyes, the few of us put away our magic brooms on the main road dozens of miles away from the city of San Carlos, and then quietly waited for a caravan coming from afar.

It was a caravan that seemed to be full of travel and dust. The huge Thunder Rhino was panting heavily, making dull thundering sounds. Each Thunder Rhino was fully loaded with goods. Dozens of huge Thunder Rhinos were walking on Between the mountains, the land of the mountains trembled slightly.

The warriors on the Thunder Rhinoceros' heads were still wearing the suede yellow sheepskin jackets that can only be found on the Pai Plateau. When I saw the huge boxes on the Thunder Rhinoceros's back, I immediately felt very familiar. This caravan It must have come down from the Pai Plateau, those heavy boxes must be filled with refined iron ingots, only the refined iron ingots that came from the dwarven kingdom can make Lei Tingxi so hard.

It is said that half of the refined iron ingots consumed in the construction of San Carlo City are transported from the Dwarf Kingdom.

Go westward along the Benma River from the northernmost province of Sluyte in the Green Empire, climb up the plank road between the mountains in the west of the Pai Plateau, and arrive at Gludin Town of the Orc Tribe, and then from Gludin The town goes west along the Ulutu River, crosses the Yelian Mountains, passes through the wilderness at the northern foot to the Yemeni town of the orc tribe, crosses the death road of the mountains at the southern foot, passes through the Xinghu Grassland and the New Siakis Mountains, and finally can Arrived in the kingdom of dwarves.

It was only in the past two years that this business route gradually recovered its previous prosperity.

Almost without us opening our mouths, a knight on a Gubolai horse ran over from a distance, and at a distance of tens of meters away from us, he slowed down the speed of the horse, and then rode the horse slowly Walking over, the knight on Gu Bolai's horse was wearing an exquisite fine iron armor, an iron helmet on his head, his face was hidden under a mask, a knight's spear was hanging by his leg, and a Roman sword was hanging on his waist. It was full of dust and looked dusty.

The knight drove his horse up to us, lifted his mask, and showed a slightly tired face, because among the five of us, four of us were dressed in magic robes, dressed like a magician, and the other one was also quite temperamental. Beautiful lady.The knight was very polite and very cautious, sitting on the horse and gave us a knight salute.

He simply asked if we need help?
At this time, he must be the only male member in the team—I stood up and said to him: We want to take their caravan's magic caravan and rush to the city of San Carlos dozens of miles away.

Naturally, he would not refuse. It is a consistent tradition of caravans to provide some convenience to some travelers during the journey.

……

When this large caravan arrived in the city of San Carlos, there were already many people waiting outside the north gate, many of whom were merchants in the city. Amazed, with eager eyes in his eyes, he almost unloaded those huge boxes with his own hands, so that he could carefully inspect the goods inside.

It seems that these ingots of refined iron from the dwarves are in high demand here.

The owner of the caravan became very busy all of a sudden, I personally thanked the owner of the caravan, and then expressed our intention to go.

The owner of the caravan was very hospitable and invited us to stay in the caravan for a few days, but I politely declined.Such a large caravan needs to be stationed outside the city, because the huge thunder rhinoceros can't pass through the city gate at all, so the people in the caravan still need to set up tents outside the city to guard the livestock and goods.

After parting from the caravan outside the north gate of San Carlos City, our group walked along the main road to the gate of the city.

The city wall of San Carlos is as high as 70 meters. Only by standing on the suspension bridge of the moat can you feel how magnificent the [-]-story city wall is.This can't help but remind me of the huge chimneys in the city that stand tall like a forest of steel. I don't know how tall they are, so they can stick their heads out of this tall city wall.

I stood on the suspension bridge, looked up, and saw the slight soreness in my neck, but I couldn't wait for the guards on the top of the city to show their blurred figures. I only felt the billowing smoke, which almost covered the city of San Carlos. Half of the sky in the city, half of the sky here is gray, and the other half is infinitely blue, clearly distinct, forming a unique landscape.

The dark city walls are covered with spots of rust. It is said that the city walls here are all piled up with poor iron ore. Rusted and stained, it looks like a Great Wall of steel.

Mrs. Alia stood beside me and kindly introduced the history of San Carlos City to us. She was very familiar with the city. She could probably tell a story full of love and hate by pointing to a pebble by the moat. The touching story of revenge.

It can be seen that in the past few days, Mrs. Alia has completely integrated into Moraya's small circle with her unparalleled affinity. I suddenly have a feeling that Mrs. Alia will always give me a kind of It feels very comfortable, she never does something that makes people feel disgusted, and sometimes she shows a little kindness, and sometimes keeps people away. She is also very gentle and considerate, with a woman's frown and smile All with the charm of dripping water.

She will always moderately lead the topic to the field she is familiar with, and then say something that will make Moraya or Alisa feel novel, and then several people will start discussions around these topics, and slowly evolve into Alia. The lady always controls the rhythm of the topic, she will never neglect anyone, she will make everyone feel that she is watching herself talking.

Mrs. Alia's eyes always fall on me vaguely, which always makes my heart ripple inexplicably. I can't deny that her charm makes me feel very novel.

……

When I entered the city, something embarrassing happened to me, because in the past I couldn't understand the unique sense of superiority of those noble children, and I didn't like the style of using privileges when things happened, so When entering the city, choose to line up behind the ranks of civilians entering the city.

But I didn't expect that after I walked over, the civilians standing in front of me all showed cautious expressions, and the crowd dispersed all of a sudden, and no civilians were willing to stand with me.

Then the range of five meters around me became empty. No one dared to stand in front of me, and no civilians stood behind me. The nearest civilians were all standing five meters behind me, with anxious faces. It looks like I'm probably waiting for me to hurry into the city, so as not to delay them queuing up to the city to do business.

Those city gate guards trotted all the way, left their posts, trotted all the way, came to me, then smiled carefully, glanced at the magic badge on my chest, and did not question us at all, He ran respectfully to the front of the civilians queuing up to enter the city, and opened up a spacious road for us to pass first.

In the city of El, commoners rarely fear nobles and magicians like this. When entering the city, they usually don’t take the initiative to give way. What's special about it is probably because the relationship between the common people and the nobles in El City has never been eased, so the common people lack the awe they originally had for the nobles, and they are more familiar with what the nobles should enjoy. which privileges.

Obviously, the priority of entering the city is not listed in the decree on the privileges of the nobles, so no one will give way to the nobles in El City.I have always been used to the way of life in El City. I didn’t expect that I would be sent to the city first in San Carlos City. When I think of being in El City, I usually despise those bosses. The aristocrats who like to use their privileges, I didn't expect that I would become one of them now. At this moment, I can't describe the feeling in my heart.

However, after passing through the bustling crowd and walking into the bustling city, I still have a very special and comfortable feeling in my heart. That kind of feeling lingers in my heart, which makes me feel that being a magician is really not bad!

But there is also a faint regret in my heart, thinking: after passing through this city gate, it is impossible to despise those noble children in the future.

……

Row upon row of buildings are arranged in such an orderly manner that the city of San Carlos is divided into residential areas according to clear levels, and the lower the level, the lower the terrain where people live.

The layout of San Carlos City appears to be much larger than that of Sloit City. The entire city is divided into three major urban areas, upper, middle and lower, and each major urban area is divided into ten districts.

The nobles, scholars, and political officials in the city live in the upper city. The Grand Duke’s Palace in San Carlos City is at the highest point on the mountainside. No matter where you stand in the city, look up to the mountainside. Seeing the colorful buildings, those buildings are very elegant and generous, tall and upright, with multiple semicircular roofs standing on the top, which looks extremely gorgeous, like a castle in a dream.

In the middle city, there lived wealthy businessmen, knights, instructors in the academy, warriors in the adventure group, and some civilians with wealthy families.

The lower city occupies nearly half of the entire city, where a large number of untouchables, vagabonds, and slaves gather.Precisely because a large number of laborers are gathered in the lower city, all the large and small workshops are built in the lower city. Those lofty and huge chimneys are billowing thick smoke, and metal ingots can often be seen on the wide streets. The carriage passed by.

Stopping at the intersection of the lower town of San Carlos, looking at the endless stream of people, we were also a little dazed for a while, not knowing what to do. At this time, I thought of the hotel in the city that Captain Mackintosh had agreed with us. Maybe I should stay in Waiting for Luka to return in that hotel.

"Does Mrs. Alia have a place to stay in San Carlos?" I asked Mrs. Alia. I always felt that she was so familiar with this place, maybe she had lived here before.

At this moment, Mrs. Alia was joking with Sophie, pointing to a shop across the street. The two of them were guessing what kind of goods were sold inside. The symbols depicted above are not displayed.

She was taken aback when she heard my inquiry, turned her head and smiled at me reluctantly, with a trace of panic in her eyes, but said to me: "Ah...no...no, if it's inconvenient, I can do it myself If you are looking for a hotel, I will trouble you along the way!"

"Of course it won't be inconvenient!" Moraya took Mrs. Alia's hand and said enthusiastically: "Besides, Mrs. Alia, don't you still want to wait with us for the people on the airship to return safely? Your maid is still here. In that team, isn't it?"

"Hmm!" Mrs. Alia agreed softly, lowered her head to avoid my gaze, and stretched out her hand to brush her long, disheveled hair behind her ears, revealing her fair cheeks. I noticed that her face looked a little rosy.

"..."

I really want to say to Moraya: I didn't mean that!
Afterwards, I turned my gaze to Sally, the princess of Sloit Province.

According to the etiquette among the nobles, if she arrives in San Carlos City, she should visit the Duke of San Carlos City in person, and she should also live in the gorgeous Duke's mansion, but when she saw my questioning eyes, she stared and pretended Putting on a vicious look, he protested to me: "I don't want to live in the duke's mansion, they will definitely find ways to send me back to Sloitt, I haven't played enough! I have already promised Sophie Go to her house as a guest!"

He had an expression of "don't worry about me", but that cute and cute appearance couldn't be fierce no matter what.
