What is it like to be a teacher as a magister?

Chapter 118 Pharmacy Room

In a prison cell inside the city wall.

The huge cage made of thigh-thick wooden stakes was originally used to hold orcs, but now it holds two humans who don't look strong, and it feels like they are overqualified.

This kind of super-standard treatment obviously made these two little thieves who were not very quick-witted feel extra oppressive.

"My lord, my lord Wayne, we were just passing by, curious about the changes in the city, so we stopped to pay attention... We admit that we have the idea of ​​stealing, if we break the law in the territory, you can ask Baron Willy to exchange us with a ransom... "

Colin, who was accompanied by Roderick and another strange knight, was quickly recognized by the two.

"Didn't Baron Willy say that his mistress ran away because of the lack of harvest in the territory? Is there still money to redeem you?" Colin asked with a smile.

"This...the money is still there..."

Colin looked at the two men in leather armor. Although they were also dressed as knights, it was obvious that their identities should be more like thieves or rangers.

Although the knight has lost its former glory, it is still a profession with threshold.

For example, Roderick, although he has not participated in any knight assessment and cannot be graded, he is an official knight conferred by Oliver Gray as a duke.

"Are they really Baron Willie's people?" Colin turned around and asked Roderick.

"There should be nothing wrong with this. As long as you go to the baron's territory and inquire for a while based on the names they gave, you can confirm that it is difficult to fake it."

The knight captain obviously understood the lord's concerns.

In this age of undocumented and online photos, impersonation has never been easier.

And this is actually not difficult to understand.

Even though Twilight City is located in a remote place, it is Xia Ya's capital after all. After more than a year, such a big change has taken place, it is impossible to hide it from the wind and rain.

Just because the fortress has greatly increased the purchase of various materials this year will make many people curious.

As Baron Mighty, who was guilty of failing to pay all the obligations, it was expected that he would send two people to observe the reactions of Twilight City and the new lord.

"Whether it's a fake or not, it doesn't really matter." Ke Lin suddenly smiled: "How long have you two been in the city?"

"It's just... just arrived..." The two agreed.

"En." Colin nodded: "Then, please explain truthfully why Baron Willy asked you to burn the food in the fortress and assassinate the new lord."

As soon as these words came out, not only the two people in the cage, but even Roderick didn't react for a while.

"grown ups……"

The two were apparently still making sure they had heard something wrong.

Burn the fort food?

Assassinate the lord?

This is about the two of us?
"My lord! We didn't..." they screamed hastily.

However, before the two of them could speak, Colin took a step forward.

The huge sense of oppression frightened them back.

Then I heard the young and kind lord, persuading him earnestly and earnestly: "No, you have."

……

On the way back, Roderick hesitated for a long time, and finally asked, "My lord, are you going to deal with Baron Willie..."

This knight captain is honest, but not stupid at all. Looking at the situation just now, he roughly guessed the intention of the lord. Originally, he should not ask such decision-making questions, but if it is true, he and his subordinates Perhaps the first war with humans is about to usher in.

"I haven't thought about it yet. I'll talk about it when I'm sure about something." Ke Lin smiled and said, "Isn't this what you've been looking forward to?"

"My blade will point at everything you point at." Roderick stroked his chest with his right hand, and the armor creaked.

The recruits have been trained for three months, and they have been allowed to climb the city wall to participate in the battle as a reserve. According to Roderick, in another three months, these people will be able to be useful.

Because of the participation of the elves, the pressure on the city defense weakened again, and it was greatly weakened.

What these elegant handsome men and women like to do most is to go back to the woods to drink mint after slaughtering the orcs, and then be high for a whole day.

The combat power produced by more than 20 elves is no less than that of 200 fortress defenders, and with the blessing of magic arrows, Roderick is very sure that only these 20 elves can easily defend the fortress.However, the lord said that this group of "guests" cannot be completely counted on, not to mention that they do not come to the city wall every day.

Saying goodbye to Roderick, Colin slowly walked to the second floor of the castle.

Not to mention the king's new decree, taking back all Xia Ya's fiefdoms is also a road that Colin must take.

This is not only a question of the dignity of the lord, but also the only way for the territory to develop.

Winter Fortress has technology and talents, but what it lacks are resources and population.

Resources can be used to make up for it in a short period of time with their strong financial resources, but population is an unavoidable problem.

300 magic apprentices, 2500 managers and craftsmen, plus about 5 civilians.

If you just want to live in peace, these people and these lands are enough.

Give him a certain amount of time, and he can create an impenetrable soup.

But the problem is that even if Colin wants to be peaceful, others may not let him do so.The domestic contradictions in Tulun, the friction between the Western Continent, not to mention the Osiq who is staring at him across the Horseshoe Sea, all these may make all his efforts go to waste.

Even a small character like Baron Willy dares to send people to fish in troubled waters at will. It seems that the weight of Winter Fortress is still too low.

……

Go to a room with a single door on the second floor of the castle.

There is a wooden sign that says "Pharmacy Room" at the door.

Gently pushed the door open, the inside was very lively.

"Teacher Coral, will you teach us the centrifugal mixing technique next time?"

"Look at how thin you have become. You are still centrifuged, and you can't even break your arms." Coral's small body was sitting behind a table in the corner, lying on her back, with her feet resting on the edge of the table.

Coral is enjoying life very much now.

Accustomed to traveling around with her teacher to appreciate the scenery of different regions, she originally thought that the comfortable life in the fortress would be boring sooner or later, but who knew that life would become more and more interesting.

A group of boys and girls who were a few years older than her chased after her, shouting "Teacher Coral" one after another.

Coral thinks this is the brightest moment of her 12 years of life.

"Hey, that's not the case with the test. How many times have I told you that you need to use carbon flannelette, and the amount of reagents is not correct. How stupid!"

"Yes, Miss Coral... oh no, Teacher Coral."

Coral retracted her eyes staring at the students, nodded in satisfaction, and then saw Colin Wayne standing at the door.

She froze for a moment, then immediately showed an awkward smile, and quickly put her foot down from the desk.
