my age of magic

Chapter 569 67. Ripening
Sitting resting by the side of the pond, Luka smiled and raised his thick big feet for me to see. He took off the heavy leather boots on his feet. The soles of the leather boots were blackened by the hot volcanic ash. The 'petrified skin' was gradually pushed away, and I saw that all the calluses on the soles of Luka's feet had been scalded and peeled off, revealing the pink and tender flesh pads.

"Does it hurt?" I couldn't help asking Luka.

Luka smiled foolishly, shook his head, then looked at the other rare plants in the garden, and said to me: "Jia, I like this place!"

The only time I could put my hands on Luka's shoulders was when he was sitting on the pool stalk with his knees crossed, he was still too tall for me.When we stood together, I could only look at his eight-pack abdomen with my head. There was a thick layer of fluff on his skin, which was very smooth to the touch. The Mithril robe was hung by me. On the branch of sour berry, I was wearing a white shirt with the sleeves rolled up high, and my hands were burned red by the hot volcanic ash.

But obviously my state is much better than that of Luka. For me, this kind of heat is far from comparable to the burning of those fireballs. Even if I step on the volcanic ash with bare feet, I will not feel much pain , although the burning fruit made my childhood painful, and even climbed back from the edge of death several times, but now it is of great benefit to me. My body's immunity to flames has reached Putting your hand into the fire can last a few seconds without getting hurt.

The halo of 'hydrotherapy' had just disappeared on Luka's feet, followed by another 'hydrotherapy'. For me, drawing a magic circle of hydrotherapy is as simple as breathing, and The difference between me and other magicians is that I never spare the mana of the blue water element, especially in this water system ecological park, the magic vortex in my body recovers magic at an exaggeratedly doubled rate. As far as I am concerned, the mana consumed by casting 'hydrotherapy' is only a few words, and it can be fully restored.

A piece of ice condensed into my hands, and I threw it to Luka, who was sweating profusely. He threw it into his mouth excitedly, and bit it loudly.

I thought about it over and over again. After all, Luka needs to be independent, he needs to have his own ideas, and learn to distinguish right from wrong. Maybe the work in Shuixi Ecological Park will help him grow up.

So I said to him, "In that case, stay here, and I'll go and talk to Scholar Abel..."

"Why don't you let him say it himself, maybe I hope he can make a decent request to me, instead of just saying 'take a stroll in the water system ecological park', when did the warrior of the Tauren clan become non-talkative?" Don’t you have the courage?” An old voice sounded from behind the two of us, and Scholar Abel walked along the ridge of the field. He carefully looked at the field of flame grass, and his face softened.

Although Luka didn't say a word, his breathing became obviously short of breath, the veins on his forehead were bulging, and his face showed displeasure.

Scholar Abel ignored Luka, but came directly to me, pondered for a moment, and then took out a scroll of magic parchment from his magic pocket and handed it to me.Then he said to me: "This is a recipe for 'Lava Ink', which is the reward for this labor. If you are interested in magic pharmacy, you might as well try to prepare a bottle or two. Although this kind of fire-type magic ink has many shortcomings Obvious, but fun."

"I'm not good at 'magic pharmacy', I prefer drawing magic scrolls to making magic ink!" I said bluntly to the Abel scholar.

"In that case, you can also exchange blueprints for other rare magic scrolls at some trade fairs in the academy, but in exchange, your tauren followers need to help me take care of these magic herbs in the aquatic ecological garden." Abel scholar He told me that his attitude was very strong, and he didn't mean to discuss it at all. He directly stuffed the parchment into my hand, which is the right of the instructor of the Magic Academy.

Regarding the lofty attitude of the Abel scholar, although I remained silent, I was not afraid. I held the formula of 'lava ink' in my hand, and I didn't rush to open it. Instead, I turned to look at Luka beside me. He asked, "Luka, what do you think of this place? Do you want to stay here?"

Luka raised his head and looked at the emerald green plants around him again. This place is like a beautiful garden. These plants that are difficult to grow in the north are inexplicably attractive to Luka. He nodded fiercely. , and told me that staying here was his wish.

In this way, I breathed a sigh of relief, because I was a little nervous, my palms sweated a little, and the potion formula in my hands was almost wet from my grip.

But even so, I was still a little worried about Luka. In front of Scholar Abel, regardless of how ugly his face was at this time, I said everything I wanted to say to Luka: "If someday you, If you are unhappy doing here, or bored, and want to go out, then you must tell me, hold it in your heart, bear it, I have a way to take you out!"

However, it seems that I underestimated the patience of Abel Scholar, or I really can't understand the old man's weird temper. Even if I said these words in front of him, there was no trace of Abel Scholar's face. Afterwards, he reached out and took out a small palm-sized diary of light yellow wood pulp paper from his pocket, tore off a thin sheet of wood pulp paper from it, and took out a diary from his pocket. The small seal stamped a blue seal on it, and then handed the page to me.

Of course I accepted it not to be outdone, and I guess he might charge me some room and board fees, isn't this the usual practice of the Academy of Magic?

A few days ago, I was in the retinue resettlement area of ​​the Magic Academy, and I paid a large amount of accommodation fees to rent a room for Luka.If Luka hadn't fought with others in the rest area square the next day because of some trivial matter, maybe Luka would stay in that dormitory building now.

"What is this?" Unlike what I expected, I did not receive a bill, but a piece of white paper with a simple number written on it, with the private seal of the Abel scholar.

"Five point coupons, the price is clearly marked on the task release column above the hall of honor of the college, and you will get five points for clearing weeds in the flame grass field once." Scholar Abel handed the coupons to me with an indifferent expression, and then said calmly .

Missions, hall of honor, point coupons... It turns out that this is how the Royal Academy of Magic earns points. After hearing what Abel Scholar said, I suddenly realized, and then I thought I must go to the hall of honor to have a look, maybe You can earn some points by accepting some tasks. After all, the magic books in the library of the Royal Academy of Magic need to consume a lot of points.

However, shortly after Scholar Abel successfully kept Luka, he found a reason to send me out of the water system ecological park. Looking at that posture, it seemed that he didn't want me to stay for a moment, but for me, Apart from the mid-level magic herbs that attract me in this water system ecological garden, there is really no need to stay. Obviously, in front of the Abel scholar, I have no way to tamper with other magic herbs.

Although it seems that there is still a piece of dead grass in the garden that is approaching maturity, I am very greedy to see it, but I can only sigh and bury my thoughts deeply in my heart.

When I got up to leave, it was Luke who sent me out. This guy was like a good baby in front of Scholar Abel, and he never dared to say a word.

Scholar Abel put on a pleasant and gentle smile towards the head-turning Luka, and said to him: "No one has ever been able to clear the weeds in the flame grass field as easily as you, even those who are about to graduate The fourth graders in the world can't do better than you..."

I couldn't help complaining secretly in my heart: I'm the one who weeded just now, okay?
It was far away from Scholar Abel, and Luke breathed a sigh of relief, and put on a posture of being relieved.

"Are you afraid of him?" I asked Luke, walking beside him.

Luke said frankly to me: "Of course, Lord Albert is usually very strict, but he doesn't seem to like you very much, but he is very interested in your extremely cool tauren follower."

"Maybe this has something to do with his previous travels in the tauren tribe. Maybe he thinks it's because of me that Luka stays in the human world. Whatever!" Banana Leaf, said relaxedly: "I didn't apply for his 'Magic Pharmacy' course. When choosing courses in the future, you can also choose other teachers. He is not the only one teaching "Magic Pharmacy" in the Royal Academy of Magic. It doesn't matter if he likes me or not, the big deal is that I will come here less in the future!"

Then I asked Luke: "But you, how long are you going to stay in this ecological park? Isn't it very bitter?"

Luke stretched out his hands, stretched his waist, and said casually: "It's okay! After all, Lord Albert treats me a little better than others, and I can learn a lot of potion formulas from him. Maybe it won't be long before I will be favored by a wealthy family or aristocratic family, someone will pay a lot of money to train me to be an excellent magic pharmacist, maybe I will have countless high-level magic herbs to squander at will, until Now, when you see me again, you might call me Lord Luke!"

I never thought that such a lofty ideal was buried in Luke's heart.

But then I thought about it, this is not the sorrow of focusing on the focus of learning on professional magicians in life. The road to the future is almost full of unpredictability. It takes a huge amount of wealth to support it, and sometimes, there must be a channel for goods, otherwise, even if there are boxes and boxes of magic crystals empty, it is impossible to buy even a mid-level magic herb.

Afterwards, he looked at the cattail tree beside him in a daze. He saw that the cattail tree happened to be the one whose leaf was broken by the tauren Luka before. Now it is obvious that there is no trace of the break, Luke Said to me: "I still haven't figured out what kind of magic you used to restore this cattail leaf."

"This will be a secret of mine. Maybe one day, I won't have to keep this secret again. I will tell you the real answer." After I finished speaking, I turned around and walked out of the energy round arch of the water magic ecological park, breathing It feels really good to take a breath of outside air.

And I also activated the magic skill of 'walking on water' again, stepped on the rippling lake and walked slowly. When I turned around and waved goodbye to Luke, I found Luke standing at the door with a look of surprise in his eyes The color is obviously curious about this very rare magic skill, yes, 'water walking' is inherited from the orc tribe, only the orc shaman elders know how to use this magic.

Standing on the lake, looking at the water system ecological park from afar...

The thick green in the water ecological garden is like a precious emerald in the Royal Academy of Magic. There are a few birds hovering on it in the sky, but it is a pity that there is a magic protective cover outside, which gently blocks them. Outside the ecological park, whenever they try to swoop down, there will be an invisible force, like an invisible big hand, pushing them out gently. The strange energy shield on the outermost layer of the ecological park makes me I feel very magical.

……

After coming out of the water system ecological park, I immediately returned to the dormitory, where there was enough private space.

For magicians, what is very disgusting is that when they are meditating, they are suddenly interrupted. The feeling of being unable to get up and down is very uncomfortable, so there is a "Do Not Disturb" sign on every door of the magician's dormitory. As long as this sign is turned over and hung up, it is generally not a special urgent matter, and few people will knock on the door at this time.When I returned to the dormitory, I hung up the sign at the door, and then put down the gauze curtain by the window of the room.

After everything was ready, he took out the magic sealing box in the magic pocket.

I picked the last flame grass seed that was about to mature at the end of the seed spikes of the twenty strongest plants of Phoenix tail flame grass. Now these twenty immature seeds are safely placed in the magic sealing box. On the lid of the magic sealing box, I saw twenty half-green and half-red flame grass seeds lying quietly in the box, and there was still a layer of extremely weak flames on the skin.

Then I took out a metal container and filled it with clean water, then took out a small bottle of 'Life Essence Diluted Liquid', and carefully dripped a drop of liquid into it, the clear water in the whole container had a faint breath of life, then I endured Facing the scorching heat of the flame grass seeds, he threw a flower seed into the clear water in the metal container.

With a sound of "嗤", I was slightly excited, and my eyes were fixed on the flower seeds of the flame grass. I saw that the moment the flower seeds fell into the clear water, although the color became a little darker, it sank into the clear water. The flame attached to the flame flower seeds at the bottom of the water was immediately extinguished by the clear water in the container.

A wry smile appeared on my face, looking at the lifeless flame grass seeds at the bottom of the container, I remained silent for a long time.
