Chapter 171: Return to the Empire
......
Thundercloud summoned fire magic and set the tree on fire again, and the surrounding fog gradually dissipated.
Standing in the distance, watching the tree gradually burn to ashes, Wallace said in a deep voice: "After this lesson, I feel that we should put all our energy on the road. If you are so careless next time, you will really be wiped out. ”
Han Sen also said: "Yes, this is a misty forest, countless adventurers have died here, we can't despise Xiao Lei just because we are by our side." ”
Lei Yun and Li Yu glanced at each other, but they had nothing to say.
Everyone packed their bags and picked up all the lost things. When I went on the road again, I really cheered up and hurried with concentration.
Two months later, they finally reached the edge of the Misty Forest, where the surrounding trees became scarcer and an ancient wall appeared in the distance.
This city wall is very magnificent, it lies in front of everyone, the height reaches more than ten meters, stretching for dozens of miles, and there is no end in sight.
It's a pity that many parts of it have collapsed, and it looks a little desolate, like a ruin......
According to Colin, this is the border wall of the Holy Light Empire, built to ward off monsters outside.
I don't know why, but since it was built, it has been besieged by countless monsters every day. Now that it's deserted, the monsters of the Misty Forest have quieted down. More than 100 years later, everyone is safe, and no one repairs it anymore.
Still, there are some guards stationed on the watchtower. There are also several shelters next to it, with specialized magicians monitoring the movement outside.
After the thunderclouds entered the territory of the Holy Light Empire, they found that the ground here had become very flat, and there was a wide avenue in front of them. In the shelter on the side of the road, several horse-drawn carriages were also parked.
Wallace said to Lei Yun, "Little Lei, let's separate here." From here back to Grand City, we can save half of the journey. ”
Lei Yun also knew that Xilin City was more than two hundred miles to the east, while Grand City was to the north, more than seven hundred miles away.
If they were to follow them to Xilin City, it would be really unkind. So he said, "Okay, if I have time in the future, I will go to Grand City to see you." ”
Everyone stopped at a three-way intersection, Li Yu was a little reluctant to him, and said, "Xiao Lei, thank you!"
Lei Yun smiled: "You're welcome! learn that meteor shower early, and the next time we meet, I hope you have become a national magician." ”
Li Yu said again: "If you have anything in the future, you can come to Grand City to find me at any time." ”
"Okay, I will. ”
The reason why Li Yu and the others had to separate from Thundercloud was because Sylv had put too much pressure on them. This wind elf is a god-like existence for many magicians.
Although she is still young and a little ignorant, she has an innate deterrent.
The most important thing is that Li Yu and Colin both have a flying magic book in their backpack, and they are very worried that if she wants to release all these magic books herself, then her expedition will be in vain.
Thundercloud is used to being alone, but he is very calm. He waved at them, took Sylph and the flying magic book, and walked towards the fork in the road to the east without looking back.
Sylph looked around and said, "Why aren't there a few trees here?"
Thunderclouds looked around, and it was really a flat river, all green meadows.
Lei Yun thought for a moment and said, "The people here are so smart, they have implemented the strategy of clearing the wilderness. They cut down all the trees here, and even if the monsters of the Misty Forest came here, they couldn't find a place to hide. Crucially, there is no food here to keep them alive, so they have to flee back. It's better than building walls!"
As they spoke, they walked farther and farther......
Li Yu stood at the intersection, looking at their backs, his eyes actually moistened: "I have a hunch that the next time I see Xiao Lei again, he will definitely become an unattainable existence." ”
Colin also nodded, "Yes, he will now be a seventh-level magician, as long as he raises the level of a magician to the silver level, he can become a member of the national magician." ”
Wallace sighed, "I'm sure he's the wandering mage you're looking for." ”
Li Yu was silent for a moment, and said sadly: "I also know that he is my benefactor!" But I don't know why, he always refuses to admit it. Hope to see him again next time. ”
......
On the other side, Thundercloud and Sylv walked along the avenue, in the direction of Xilin City.
The grassland made him feel refreshed, and in the distance there was a windmill that was whirling and whirling.
Sylph was surprised, "What's that?"
Thundercloud was speechless for a while, she was even more difficult to take care of than a three-year-old girl. So he said, "That's a windmill, which can be used to grind flour or make all kinds of grain." ”
"What is the noodle?"
"Noodles are an ingredient made from ground wheat. ”
"What is wheat?"
“......”
Thundercloud was no longer able to answer, and the two walked along the avenue under their feet. In the afternoon, the thundercloud suddenly sat down on a rock on the side of the road.
He took off his shoes and poured the sand out.
These shoes have accompanied him for thousands of kilometers, sewing and mending many times, and they are almost at the limit. When he got to the next town, he decided to buy another pair of shoes.
He suddenly remembered that someone had said that the Light Spirit Boots could improve a person's speed skills, and he had to buy them and try them out.
Sylph crouched down next to him and said, "What's wrong with you?"
Lei Yun knew that she was caring about herself, and her heart was moved.
Looking back at her, I saw that she showed no signs of exhaustion. Not only that, but her whole body was spotless. She's convenient, she's light, and it's no wonder she's called Sylph (a girl with a light body).
The two continued on their way, and in the evening, they arrived in a small town.
Hilf was surprised, "Wow, there are so many people here!"
The town is really bustling, and the streets are full of bustling people. Thundercloud and Silver walked down the street, and the people around them all looked at them in amazement.
Sylph's dress is a bit sheer, and she's so pretty that she attracts a lot of peeps from the guys.
Luckily, she was followed by a flying magic book, and everyone knew that they were magicians, so they didn't dare to act rashly.
But even so, Thundercloud still felt very uncomfortable.
He likes to keep a low profile, but Silph next to him is the opposite, and everyone around her is looking sideways at her.
Lei Yun thought to himself that he had to buy her a new dress, otherwise he would one day cause unnecessary trouble if he was so swaggering.
There happened to be a clothing store on the side of the street, and Lei Yun walked in with her: "Boss, do you have any clothes for girls here?"
"Yes, yes, who are you going to buy it for?"
As soon as the boss turned around, he saw Silver, and he was stunned.
Lei Yun said helplessly: "I bought it for her." ”
The boss didn't react for a long time, and Thundercloud had to stand between him and Silver, saying, "If not, then I'll go." ”
The boss was shocked and said, "Young man, the clothes of your companion are as thin as silkworm yarn, and its quality is very good, and it is also very precious. If you have this kind of clothes, why do you have to help her buy clothes?"
Lei Yun said helplessly: "You also said that her dress is very precious, so I want to put it away for her." When she is about to get married, I will dress her in this kind of clothes. ”
The boss was stunned for a moment: "Yes...... Reasonable. ”
Under the boss's guidance, Thundercloud chose a white dress for her, and then asked Hilf to change into it.
She walked out of the dressing room and said pitifully: "This dress is so heavy, people don't want it." ”
Thundercloud and the boss were dumbfounded, it was the first time they had heard someone say that their clothes were heavy. This is obviously a short skirt of excellent quality, light and fluttery, weighing less than a tael.
It's nice to be able to buy this kind of dress in such a remote place.
