【Chapter 413】 Transformation
The panicked crowd was particularly noisy and chaotic in the rainstorm, and at the same time, Eslena also received terrible news from the elven team on duty.
The number of monsters is much more than they imagined, dark clouds cover the sun, torrential rain continues, it seems to make the monsters very excited, and there are constantly monsters in the vicinity of the curved water canal in the entire southern city. No one knew exactly how many, just saw one monster after another, pouring out from all directions.
"Meisha, take everyone to the bazaar at once! ”
The situation is urgent, Eslena doesn't have time to think about it, the bazaar is the most prosperous area of Arabe, and the guard force is relatively strong, so it is the safest choice at present.
However, what she didn't expect was that Jialia took the initiative to stop her: "Hey, listen to me, the bazaar is not safe. The best option is for Iruli to carry the emblem and take everyone to the vicinity of the Magic Zone, which is the safest place. ”
Eslena looked at this female mage in surprise, stunned for a moment, and subconsciously lowered her eyes on Iluri, as if asking for her opinion.
Ilully thought for a moment and nodded slightly, "Rena, Miss Fisher is right. The safest place now is the Magic Zone. But, I'm here to be with you!"
"Maisha, take this!" Iluli took out the emblem from her pocket and stuffed it into Mesha's hand, "Listen to me, immediately lead everyone to the magic zone." If it is checked, this emblem will be revealed. ”
"And ......," added Galia, "just say that it is the command of the Hand of Mysteries, and they will understand what I mean." ”
"Thank you, Miss Fisher. "Eluli seems to be heartless, but she is actually a real person who values love and righteousness, and knows how to repay kindness. Galia Fisher braved the rain to come to her aid, much to her grateful.
The chaotic crowd, organized by the elves, evacuated along the streets. Rena and the others, who were in charge of the palace, also followed and left the street.
Thanks to Rena's pre-battle arrangements and Iruli's timely return, there were no casualties.
Until the rain gradually stopped, everyone was safely evacuated from the southern city. And Arabe City obviously got the news as well, and a large number of knights and mages rushed to the southern city in droves.
At Galia's arrangement, a nobleman living in the magical district stepped in and found a place for the elves to settle down - a vacant courtyard that was much more luxurious and spacious than their original residence.
Of course, it's also worth a lot of money.
"Thank you, Miss Fisher. ”
The rest of the elves were busy calming everyone's emotions, and Iluri, Esrena, and Galia found a quiet room by themselves, and each changed out of their wet clothes and sat down to talk in detail.
"You're welcome, Iluri. Galia smiled and shook her head: "Actually, from the moment you visited me, I knew that you must have encountered some problems. The current city of Arabe is not peaceful, and it can even be said that it is precarious. Not only you, but even the Mage Guild is now in a hurry. ”
"Miss Fisher. Esrena understood what had happened today, and frowned, "I would like to say thank you too, on behalf of my family, and on behalf of Iluri. It was your frank words that saved us from a catastrophe. It's just that I have some doubts. ”
"Please feel free to speak. ”
"This curse, which spreads through blood, can have unimaginable consequences once it erupts. The whole city of Arabe will also be eroded. So, your mage association, don't you have any countermeasures at all?"
"Yes. Galia raised her eyebrows: "It's also the easiest countermeasure - kill! We don't have enough power to prevent it, and we don't have enough resources to lift the curse." Then, we can only choose some more important areas to guard with heavy troops, and the people in the rest of the areas can only ask for more blessings for themselves. Once infected, only to die. ”
Eslena and Iluri looked at each other, both falling silent.
"It's cruel, isn't it? I think it's cruel too. Galia smiled bitterly and shook her head: "But I also think it's the best way." Because the challenge we face is not the monsters in these cities. The curses in the city look terrible, but in reality they are just very transmissible and not very combative. Our knights are more than capable of dealing with them. ”
"The real threat, outside the city, on the coast. You should know what I mean, just like the last battle, that terrible monster that can influence the mind of a mage keeps coming. The magic we are so proud of is seriously disturbed. And without magic, we are not even knights. ”
"Is it so serious?"
Esrena's heart was heavy, and it was her decision to settle in Arabey City. But she didn't expect that after just a short period of peace, she would fall into trouble again.
In the city, outside the city, it has become a forbidden area, that is, they are trapped in the city of Arabe.
"The rain stopped. Galia walked to the window, took a breath of fresh air after the rain, and sighed on her face: "Evil has risen from the ocean, and everything has just begun." Eluri, Miss Bilotis, you've had a tired day, so get some rest. I'm also going to the Mage Guild to report on the situation. ”
"Yes, Miss Fisher. Esrena and Iluri both stood up and said, "Thank you so much for today." ”
Eslena thought for a moment, gritted her teeth, and said, "Also, this manor. We...... We will pay the rent due on time. ”
"Rena......" Iruli tugged at her sleeve, "We didn't bring out any of our gold coins." ”
"I'll figure it out. Eslena shook her head, "We can't ......"
"Miss Bilotis. Galia suddenly smiled: "I can see that you are an upright elf. Still, you think too much, this manor is nothing more than the private property of a small nobleman. In the eyes of our Mage Association, it is nothing, as long as he says a word, he will willingly donate to the association. ”
"I'm afraid this is not good, won't we become a ...... to forcibly occupy others"
Iluri waved her hand at Rena, as if she had made some decision, came to Galia, and took a soft breath: "Galia, I have thought about it, I am willing to join the Mage Association." ”
"Really?" the joy on Galya's face could not be concealed, "Eluri, you have really decided. ”
"Yes, I decided. ”
For the sake of her family, for Rena and her family, to be able to live safely, joining the Mage Association is the best and fastest way. Once Iruli becomes a member of the Mage Guild, with her 'talent', there must be a generous treatment.
"Congratulations!" said Calia took her hand and smiled sincerely, "You won't regret it." ”
"I have a request, though. Iluri nodded, "I don't want the Mage Tower, I want to live here, with my family." Of course, there are some things in the Mage Association, if I need them, I am duty-bound. ”
"Got it! It's easy to do. Do you have anything else to ask for? I'll fight for you. ”
"Hmm......" Iruli squirmed, looking a little embarrassed, "Do I get paid to join you?" I mean, I need gold to keep my family afloat. ”
"Aren't you guys running a bakery?" said Galia, winking.
"Uh, yes. But this is the aristocratic quarter. ”
Iruli shook her head and smiled bitterly, people who can become nobles have very wealthy families, and they usually have their own private bakeries and private bakers, so in her opinion, it is not realistic to open a bakery here.
"But next door is the Magic Zone. Galia understood what she meant: "Our mages and nobles have different living habits, and prefer to be quiet. I have seen aristocratic bakeries, bakers, maids who sift noodles, workers who burn fires, etc., and they are very lively when there are many people. Therefore, there is no bakery in the Mage Tower at all. And our bread has always been supplied by a few bakeries in the aristocratic district. ”
"You're saying we can sell bread to magicians?"
"Of course, the magician also has to eat. And ah, they're usually very generous, as long as your bread is good enough, gold isn't a problem. ”
"Rest assured, we have a special channel for the supply of flour here, which is all finely ground wheat flour. As long as your craftsmanship is not too bad, the bread baked will not be difficult to eat. I promise, I must be your first customer. ”
"Haha......" solved the problem of living and solving the problem of life, and Yiluli, who was relieved, patted her chest with confidence: "I also promise that our bread will taste better than other people's - an exclusive secret recipe from the elves." ”
"yes, I'm looking forward to it now. ”
"That's right, Galia. I think I'll have to wait a few more days to join the Mage Guild. Don't get me wrong, I'm not going to go back, but I'm going to take some time to get our delicious bakery back up. ”
Galia looked puzzled: "A bakery, do you still need to participate in person?"
"yes. Rena on the side looked at Iluri with a smile: "Because the name of our bakery is called Ilully's delicious bakery, and the secret recipe is also her exclusive secret ingredient." ”
"I see. Jialia nodded: "This shouldn't be a big problem, if you need any help, you can always come to me." It just so happens that I don't have a mission these days, so I might be able to become your first customer. ”
"Thank you, Galia, and I'll be visiting your house too. ”
"It's a deal!"
"It's a deal!"
After bidding farewell to Galia, Eslena returned to the room and looked at Iluri quietly, "Have you really decided?
"That's right. Yiluli nodded nonchalantly, opened her hands and sighed: "Such a big manor, why don't you give it for nothing?"
"It's not just about the estate. Eslena looked a little worried: "Arabe's situation is bad now, and if you become a member of the Mage Guild, I'm afraid you're going to go to war." ”
"Don't worry, Rena. Hee-hee......" Iruli smiled mischievously, "Do you know what it means to not be able to work?"
Iluri said it lightly, but Eslena understood that Iluri had made this decision for their sake, even if it was to go to war.
"It's fine. Iluri leaned on Esrena's shoulder and blinked, "I am the one who is protected by the gods. I've never forgotten that everything we enjoy now comes from the gods. ”
Thinking of the gods that Iruri believed in, Eslena seemed a little complicated, but she also had to admit that everything that the god had given to Iruli had saved them again and again.
"Hey, Rena. Iluri leaned into Esrena's ear: "It's not me bragging, it's the god I believe in, he has long predicted the rise of evil in the sea. It seems that I am going to have a good night's sleep tonight, hoping that the gods will come down to my dreams and give me guidance and strength. ”
"Indeed......" Rena nodded, "I'm starting to believe now, the god you believe in is real, and his divine power seems to be even stronger." ”
"How's it going? Do you feel excited? Rena, I think you can do it too. Iruli squeezed her shoulders and smiled, "Perhaps, I can introduce you to the gods, and if you can change your faith, you may also become stronger." ”
"Conversion?"
There was a tangle between Eslena's brows, she would never agree before, but now she was a little shaken. She saw everything that Iluri had done.
For the sake of her loved ones, Eruli decisively converted her faith and changed their fate.
And what about her?
Are you willing to convert your relatives and give everything for your family like Iluli?
Life?
And faith?
What exactly is the answer?
