The knights of the guard battalion of Qiyan City stood on the city wall, nearly a hundred flying dragons shuttled in the thick clouds like cotton wool in the distance, hundreds of bed crossbows at the head of the city adjusted their angles, the giant crossbow arrows were put into the crossbow grooves, the bowstring was slowly pulled away by the winch, and the pitch angle bracket was raised thirty-five degrees, aiming at the orc dragon knights in the clouds.

In recent years, there has been no war in Qiyan City, and the routine maintenance work of the guard battalion for the city's defense equipment has been delayed for nearly half a year due to financial problems, and after the rainy season, the slipknot joints of the various parts of these bed crossbows have become rusty, and at this moment the crossbowmen of the guard battalion have loaded the cow tendon bowstring, and the winch is in a piercing creaking sound, and the bowstring of the bed crossbow is pulled away by the crossbowmen......

A group of guards battalion knights were desperately using whetstones to polish the tips of the dragon spears, the wooden handles of these old ordnance had a layer of mold on them, and even a layer of colorful mushrooms had grown on the wooden ordnance stacked at the bottom.

The soldiers defending the city and the knights of the guard battalion stood on the city wall relatively speechlessly, and the commanders of the two sides had no intention of interacting with each other, and the scene was very dull for a while.

The knights of the guard battalion waited tremblingly at the head of the city for a long time, and found that the group of flying dragons in the distance did not seem to have any intention of attacking Qiyan City, so they decisively left some knights to continue to stay here, and most of the remaining knights of the guard battalion were disbanded on the spot......

......

Five land monitor lizards loaded with supplies brought back from the wild swamp Guzahir tribe, burrowing out of the dense rainforest, at the head of the city this group of guard knights have focused on our team, the people waiting to enter the city at the city gate are also in an uproar, the five land monitor lizards slowly move forward, there are always some people because of timidity and keep retreating, the scene at the city gate was very chaotic for a while.

The gates of Strange Rock City have not yet been opened, and the people outside the city have made way for us.

Nathaniel excitedly stood on top of the head of the land monitor lizard at the front, took off the leather vest he was wearing, waved the leather vest in his hand vigorously with his upper body, and shouted to the knights of the guard battalion at the head of the city: "Hurry up and open the city gate, let us enter the city!"

The soldiers defending the city looked down from between the battlements for a long time, and found no other suspicious circumstances, and saw Nathaniel standing on top of the monitor lizard's head with a proud look, and hurriedly lowered the drawbridge, opened the city gate, and let the people waiting outside the city into the city.

There were a lot of people waiting to enter the city, and not all of them were afraid of us.

At the front of the gate were a group of lightly armored knights riding the ancient Bolai horses, who, though with a hint of vigilance in their eyes, did not hide away like the rest of the people.

Our group sat in a row on the backs of the Terrean monitor lizards, also behind the group of knights.

Perhaps because some of us rode five land dragons, which were so vicious in appearance that the poor people waiting to enter the city, and the nobles in their carriages, hid from us far away, and did not want to come near us at all, so that we were empty for a long distance.

The last time we entered the city, the gates of Qiyan City were not so strictly controlled, and our group entered Qiyan City without any interrogation.

But this time it seems to be much stricter, and the civilians around Qiyan City are all looking at us with a strange look, with a strong look of disdain in their vigilant eyes, it seems that there must be some changes in Qiyan City that we don't know about.

When we entered the city, the guards at the gate didn't mean to come forward to check at all, but stood behind the road-resisting horses, holding imperial crossbows to confront our group, Nathaniel stood on top of the land monitor lizard with a surprised face, he quickly slipped down from the land monitor lizard, and ran to the city gate to negotiate with the group of gate guards who did not want to come forward.

The gate guards didn't want to deal with Nathaniel, so I had to take matters into my own hands.

My nobility was far more effective than a gold coin or two for these city guards, so I walked forward wearing the noble medal of the marquis, and the gate guards did not know me, but they knew the noble medal on my chest, and they hid far behind the horse and saluted me.

"We're going into Strange Rock City, why don't we let it go?" I asked the city guards.

In the group of guards guarding the city gate, one of the captain soldiers stood up and explained to me: "This Marquis, I have recently received an order from the City Lord's Mansion of Qiyan City that all adventure groups returning from the swamp need to be personally checked by the knights of the guard battalion, and we are just routine. ”

With that, the captain of the soldiers slipped away and hid behind the road-blocking horse at the city gate.

Not long after, a group of knights from the guard battalion rushed out of the city and surrounded us at the city gate, and the guards guarding the city gate were relieved.

A captain of knights came out of the ranks on a Gubolai horse, jumped off his horse and saluted me, frowning at me, and asked, "Your Excellency, Marquis, you have returned from the wild swamp?"

Although he noticed the noble insignia on my chest, he did not show the respect he should have.

"That's right!" I said to the knight captain.

He turned his gaze to the body of the land traveling monitor lizard, and saw that the lizard beast was loaded with supplies on its back, but there were no lizard slaves, and his face became even more ugly, and he interrogated me, "Didn't you hunt lizard slaves?"

I scoffed and said, "We're just an ordinary adventuring group, not those slave traders, so naturally we don't do slave hunting. ”

The captain of the knights seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, but then his face became solemn again, staring at the crates on the back of the monitor lizard, and asked me, "Your Excellency the Marquis, what kind of cargo is the land traveling monitor lizard carrying on its back?"

I admire the courage of this knight chief, and when facing a noble marquis, he still speaks so hard.

I patiently replied, "Some Magical Beast materials and magical herbs hunted in the Savage Swamp. ”

The chief knight saw that there were only a few of us in our group, but we were carrying so many supplies, so he said to me: "Your Excellency, Marquis, please come with us to the guard camp for further identification, recently there has been a group of bandit gangs in Strange Rock City that rob ordinary adventure groups, most of these robbers are composed of members of the gang in the city that sell lizard slaves, I initially suspect that your Excellency has something to do with this matter, so please come with us to the guard camp." ”

Seeing that the chief knight was unreasonable, he wanted to take us to the guard barracks, and Karantso and Justus came up from behind with ten orc-constructed warriors.

At this time, Ying Li hurriedly ran down from the land lizard, grabbed me, and said to the knight chief, "...... Allow me to send a letter to the Norman Marquis, the Archon of Strange Rock City, and we are old acquaintances with the Norman Marquis. ”

The chief knight saw that although Ying Li did not have any noble marks on his body, he did not dare to slack off and said: "This is no problem, we are just doing a routine business." ”

......

The Marquis of Norman came much faster than I thought, and we sat on the backs of the Terrecalibur and were escorted by a group of knights from the guard battalion, when the carriage of the Marquis Norman came galloping from outside and stopped our group.

The door of the carriage was opened by the two knights, the servants brought a stool and placed it at the door of the carriage, and a middle-aged man dressed in a gorgeous aristocratic costume slowly walked out of the carriage, and the knights of the guard battalion around saluted the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged nobleman waved his hand casually, and then walked straight towards Ying Li.

Ying Li and I hurriedly jumped off the back of the land lizard, and Ying Li obediently greeted the Norman Marquis: "Uncle Norman......"

I have to say that aristocratic privileges are a good thing, although we have not yet given any explanation to the knights of the guard battalion, but with the arrival of the Norman Marquis, the group of knights of the guard battalion did not dare to detain us at all, and let us go in front of the gate of the guard battalion.

The Marquis de Norman invited us into his magical caravan, and the rest of us followed in land dragons.

The terrestrial monitor lizard didn't walk fast in the city, so the magic caravan slowly moved forward, and I met the Norman Marquis for the first time, but it seemed that he knew Ying Li very well, and there was an indescribable respect in front of Ying Li.

It is said that the Norman Marquis, who served under Prince James and came from a noble family in the province of Strange Rock, returned to serve in the province after leaving the Legion of the South Wind.

Sitting in the carriage, I asked the Marquis de Norman, "Your Excellency, what is going on in the city to check all the adventurers who have returned from the Wild Swamp?"

The Marquis de Norman looked at me with a strange look, took a sip of tea without hurrying, and then told me:

"It's really hard to talk about...... That's pretty much it, in short, dozens of adventure groups have disappeared in the rainforest in the last six months in Strange Rock City, including seven magicians, and this matter has attracted the attention of the Imperial Magic Guild Headquarters!"

"Your Royal Highness the Princess, Marquis of Giga, do not hide from the two of you, this matter is directly related to Prince George of the Royal Family and Quentin Bussman of the Bussman family, and all clues indicate that Prince George and Quentin Bussman were involved in this hunt against the Imperial Adventure Party, and almost all the slave traders in the city were involved in this plan......"

After the Norman Marquis told the ins and outs of the matter, Ying Li and I couldn't help but look at each other, originally thought that the brothers Yutasi and Angus were bold, but I didn't expect this matter to involve so many people, this matter actually has Prince George and Quentin, originally thought that by leaving the imperial capital, the relationship with His Royal Highness Prince Charles could be eased, but I didn't expect to step on the thunder of Prince George again.

However, I have the brand of Prince James on my body, and the Prince of James and the Prince of Wales are very close, which is not going to cause a dispute within the royal family of Angelboy.

At least when Prince Charles meets me in the future, he won't give me a good look.

After hearing the Norman Marquis tell me about these things, I knew that a series of major events had taken place in Strange Rock City, and the fuse of the incident was that I led people to secretly rob the brothers Angus and Yutath...... It's just that I didn't expect to be involved in more serious incidents later, which directly caused everyone to almost forget to find the real culprit who kidnapped the Yutasi and Angus brothers.

In the following month, the slave traders in Strange Rock City were purged by the noble lords of Strange Rock Province, and even the gladiatorial arena in Strange Rock City was forced to shut down a month ago.

Just a week ago, the House of Representatives of Strange Rock Province held the largest referendum meeting, and all the nobles voted on Prince George and Quentin Bussman, and although the nobles of Strange Rock Province did not have the right to try Prince George, they could expel him from Strange Rock Province.

......

The Marquis de Norman placed us in a pristine manor, and Ying Li and I sat under umbrellas by the pool, while Helena and Becky swam in the pool under the scorching sun.

"So, Prince George and Quentin Bussman have been driven back to the imperial capital?" I said to Yingli.

Wearing a long white dress made of cool demonic spider silk, Ying Li lay on a chaise longue and said to me: "It is said that Captain Chriss stabbed this matter in front of His Majesty Charles, and His Majesty Charles was furious and drove Prince George to Angela Noodles, and it happened that Prince Charles was in Angela's two Mithril Mines in Angela, and Prince George should be honest in Angela Noodles for a while in the name of managing the mines. ”

"As for that Quentin Bussman, he was not treated so well, although he was also sent back to the Warsaw plane, but most of the Warsaw plane has been occupied by the demon legions of the dark forces of the Abyss, and the army of the Bussman family has shrunk in the last main city, it is said that Duke Ryan was seriously injured, and the empire did not send the Royal Constructed Knights to rescue the Bussman family at this time, it seems that His Majesty Charles is likely to abandon the Bussman family. ”

I sighed lightly, and there were many emotions in my heart: "I didn't expect that so many things had happened in the empire in the past month or so many in the savage swamp. ”

I paused, then I sat up from the chaise longue, squatted beside Ying Li, took her white and soft little hand, and plucked up the courage to say to her, "Ying Li, I am going to give up my studies at the Royal Academy of Magic, and I am going to the Etia Alliance Kingdom to find Qige. ”

Ying Li Mei looked at me with a smile and asked, "You have decided?"

"Yes, there is probably a war going on in the Ethian Alliance Kingdom, I want to help Kige, I'm a little worried about her. I said a little humbly.

Unexpectedly, Ying Li said very cheerfully: "Okay, I'll go with you, don't try to leave me." ”

I hesitated a little, thinking of smuggling the princess of the Grimm Empire to the Etia Alliance Kingdom, would Prince James send his second-turn powerhouses to hunt me down in person......

I can only say to Ying Li: "But the Royal Academy of Magic is ......"

Unexpectedly, Ying Li said: "We can temporarily suspend our studies, I will go and ask my mentor Pamela Sage to write a letter of recommendation to the Aden Academy of Magic in the Etia Alliance Kingdom, and I can continue to study there." ”

I took a deep breath and said, "Okay!

(End of book)

......

At the beginning of the year 2589 in the Gregorian calendar of the Grimm Empire, the Marquis of Giga sent an envoy to the Etian Alliance Kingdom.

In the autumn of 2589 in the Gregorian calendar of the Grimm Empire, the Marquis of Jijia arrived in the Etia Alliance Kingdom, and the Queen of the Etia Alliance Kingdom of Qige canonized the Marquis of Jijia as a prince, with nearly 1,000 kilometers of coastline along the Twin Seas.

......

Ladies and gentlemen, "The Mage of the Age of Magic" has come to an end for the time being.

Originally, the original setting of this book was the story of the three protagonists fighting to get above the tide of the Age of Magic, a mage, a knight...... It is inconvenient to disclose later.

Next, I'm going to take a break for about ten days, or about two weeks, and then start writing the knight chapter, hoping to bring you a more exciting story from a different perspective, at least not so many settings.

Well, there should be some postscript or something later, and a lot of holes still have to be filled.
