253. First sight on an airship
That night, the moon was bright and the stars were scarce. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Karantso left with a team of orcs laden with cargo, and I watched her walk through the portal.
Marven was very efficient, and it only took half a day to buy all the things, and finally there were two crucibles left, and it was only now that the owner of the blacksmith shop was out of breath and transported it back before the city gate was closed. Finally, at dusk like this, Karantso could go home with the well-fed young orcs.
Probably only Marven can do things so beautifully, and the shopkeepers on the whole street of the small market are willing to sell him a face, just because Marven's magic grocery store always has some scarce things, and they sometimes need to buy some sought-after goods. For example, those metal magic rune plates, or the short-lived 'magic catalytic' scrolls, or the magic herbs for preparing spiritual potions, I don't know when they will appear on the counter of the grocery store, many things are rare and sought-after goods in El City, if the store owner Marven can notify in advance, maybe he can easily grab the rare goods in western Zhejiang.
I sometimes wonder what kind of uproar I would cause if I threw the 'Dark Body' into the magical market of El City. But this is just thinking about it, El City, a small place, there is no way to hide his identity.
The last thing I said to Karantso was: don't eat these seeds as food, if you want to have a stable source of food, you must learn to farm, there will always be a bad day in hunting life, the land of Xinliu Valley is so fertile, open up a good piece of land, you can grow more food.
Holding a bag of seeds over his shoulder, Karantso just said: The orcs of the wasteland don't plow, but we have been in El City for five years, and sometimes when the farming is busy, the farmers are forced to hire us orcs to harvest the wheat, so that the wheat will not rot in the soil.
That's right, this is the orcs under the leadership of Karantso, these orcs who have gone through all kinds of hard work in the city of El, and they are the most tenacious orcs.
...... Beautiful Dividing Line......
Hearing that I was going to the Ziqing Mountains tomorrow, Fanny arranged a simple farewell dinner for me, beef stew with potatoes with white bread and strawberry jam.
Fanny always had a worried expression, for the people of El City, the Purple Green Mountains are not a good place to practice, because there are often magical beasts in the margins there, and there are some large magical beasts in the depths of the mountains, such as the vicious spiny manticore, or the wind snake, the Chimera, and so on. Every summer, some hunters or adventurers die in the Purple Green Mountains, which is a paradise for adventurers, and there are endless opportunities there.
"Didn't you say there was no shortage of money?" Ryan pondered for a moment, and finally couldn't help asking, he knew that magic apprentices were very expensive, and the magic ink I brought home from outside was rarely worth less than one gold. Such an expensive magic ink is undoubtedly a heavy burden for the high-level white-collar worker Ryant, a working-class white-collar worker, and I didn't pay a penny to Ryant.
Previously, the supply of magic ink was a scholar of Yerkes, who took advantage of the convenience of the laboratory of the Academy of Magic, and then Yerkis went to the imperial capital, and I began to buy ink out of my own pocket, so that the magic grocery store was very profitable.
But this time, I went to the Ziqing Mountain Range to train, and my family always thought that I must not have enough money, so I would go to the Ziqing Mountain Range to take risks.
After the final exams, I rarely got to have dinner at home, and I didn't communicate well about it for a while.
"Of course, that grocery store has been doing well!" I still want to make this clear to Ryan and Fanny, lest they always get cranky.
"Then why venture into the Purple Green Mountains?" Fanny asked, unable to understand and a little worried.
"I've made an appointment with my friends. I can only try my best to explain the distribution of demonic beasts in the Ziqing Mountain Range in detail, and swear: "Those demonic beasts usually hide in the deep mountains, on the edge of the Ziqing Mountain Range, if you can meet a demonic beast, it is also an extremely lucky thing, that mountain range is by no means as terrible as rumored!"
However, Ryan and Fanny, like all the residents of El City, have a very terrifying impression of the Purple Green Mountains, and it is difficult for them to change their subjective impression based on my two words.
In the end, they still respected my idea and acquiesced to this activity, all the families in the city of El, there is a slight difference between the raising methods of boys and girls, boys always need to learn the way to survive independently at a very young age, just like I decided to go on an adventure at this time, and I will definitely get the support of my family. But Tracy was grounded, especially after knowing that her field observation diary was written in its entirety, there was no reason to go to such a dangerous place.
Tracy sat at the table like an ostrich in a cool little sundress, and if she dared to interject at this time, she would surely drown in Fanny's spittle.
"With Ruka with me, don't worry! The people who invited me to go on an expedition with me are aristocrats, and they won't joke with their lives! I said as I ate.
The worry on Fanny's face became a little heavier: "It's because there are so many children from aristocratic families that I'm worried about my safety, the nobles and commoners in the academy a few days ago were still in trouble, and it is inevitable that you will be jealous together, you have to pay more attention to everything!"
"Got it, Fanny!" I said.
Fanny's words of concern warmed my new feelings, and I smiled at Sister Guoguo's water elemental spirit standing next to the wine cabinet, she was curiously smelling the bottle of golden cider with the lid open, I was a little dumbfounded, did she already have a sense of smell, and would be curious about the smell of wine.
I glanced at Tracy again, and she frustrated her arms and shrugged her shoulders at me. It seems that she has completely given up the opportunity to train.
"Maybe it won't be too boring to hone my swordsmanship in the training room, and maybe I will have a chance to become a first-class swordsman before I graduate!" Tracy said, pretending not to care.
...... Beautiful Dividing Line......
All along, I have chosen to stand on the hillside below the airport, looking up at the airship floating above the airport, but I have never been so close to it.
The moment I stepped on the airship, I realized that my previous understanding of the structure of the airship was still too stingy, and the whole airship looked like a huge five-masted sailing ship. The hull is one hundred and twenty meters long, the width is also sixty meters, the whole hull has three main keels of length, and the middle main beam is actually a good iron wood, one hundred and twenty meters long, and the first thick iron wood on one side is also rare.
There are a total of sixteen large floating circles in the belly of the entire hull, which is just a large magic circle that simply makes the hull float in the air, when the eight magic circles are in full operation, the entire airship can carry 1,500 people, and the cargo compartment below can also carry more than 50 tons of goods. Of course, these floating circles need to consume magic crystals. In addition, there is a large wind circle at the stern of the ship, which can ensure that the airship can create a little artificial wind even when there is no wind, and continue sailing.
The main mast, which was two meters in diameter, stood tall in the center of the hull, and it was more of a floating sailboat than an airship, the fallen canvas neatly trapped on the bottom beam of the mast, and the spinnaker in the bow was lowered at this time.
The deck of the hull has been stained with people, this is a large airship that can accommodate a thousand people at the same time, the whole airship has a total of five floors, the bottom two floors are the cargo holds, the workers are carrying bags of supplies and loading goods on the special passage below, and the passage on the upper deck is specially reserved for passengers. There are more than 500 sets of rooms on the three floors of the ship, ranging from single rooms to quadruple rooms, divided into three classes, single rooms are called first class, double rooms are called second class, and four rooms are called third class. And the price varies, the larger the space, the more expensive the room with fewer people.
Looking at the words "First Class: One Zero Seven" written on the ticket in my hand, I sighed: "Senior Benjamin is really an aristocratic demeanor, and he is so rich that he can't reach out, and he stretches out his hand to get more than a dozen first-class tickets." ”
At this time, I saw Senior Benjamin standing on the side of the boat looking towards the entrance, and when he saw me walking in with the crowd, he waved to me excitedly and squeezed towards me.
Behind them, Anne and Renard were talking about some things head-to-ear, and behind them were Trevecon, Spencer, Craigie, and Atley, who were also looking at this magic airship with a curious face, and everyone seemed to be riding such a luxurious airship for the first time.
The Battle Spirit Squad decided to join me on the expedition to the Ziqing Mountains on an impromptu basis, and these first-class tickets were also handled by Senior Benjamin.
Probably because the previously scheduled activity suddenly collapsed, last night when I was enjoying the cool, I saw Anne sitting quietly under the lemon tree in a daze, I was originally going to ask Sister Anne about Su, she and Ying Li left in a hurry, even did not see the last face, I wanted to know what Su had recovered, so I jumped over the wall into the courtyard of Anne's house, my body was brisk like a tanuki, an arrow jumped to the wall, leaned down and jumped down without a sound, a wind circle slowly revealed under my feet。
I remember Anne's faint smile at the time, a picture of 'I knew you couldn't help but come and ask me'.
At the beginning we talked about Sue's situation, and it seemed that she was recovering well, but suddenly she lost the power of the shadow element, which made her a little uncomfortable. Later, we talked about Anne herself, some time ago I heard that the Soul Squad was preparing for another long-distance experience, which would last a whole summer, but then on the day of departure, there was a quarrel with another team because of an incident, and finally the Soul Squad chose to quit, so the training action that had been fully prepared was cancelled directly.
So Anne, who was idle, sat idly under the lemon tree in a daze......
"Otherwise, come with me to the Purple Green Mountains for training!" I said to Anne at the end.
"Is it really possible?" Annie's eyes became bright, that kind of innate charm I had never seen in Sister Guoguo.
Suddenly, Sister Guoguo sounded, and I don't know if the water elemental spirit incarnated by Sister Guoguo will have some memories of the grass and trees here, I turned around to look back at Sister Guoguo behind me, only to see her standing in the courtyard looking at the courtyard blankly, Mu Na's face was blank.
Benjamin led the group of us: Captain Renard, Magic Swordsman Annie, Weapon Warrior Trevecon, Archer the Archer, Assassin Spencer, Axe Warrior Craigie and I, and ran through the crowd to the back deck, which was much more relaxed, and he led us to a large dining room, where apparently not too many people would go hungry as soon as they got on the airship, so it was much cleaner than the outside deck.
Benjamin led us to a large round table, half of which was now occupied by a group of senior college students, who looked at me with interest, I guessed that these people must be members of Benjamin's team, and sure enough, when Benjamin introduced me, he introduced them one by one: Will the Warrior, Ram the Assassin, Vebrun the Archer, Andy the Ranger, Randolph the Fire Magi, Mia, the Temple's Sacrificial Apprentice, and two substitutes, Weapon Warrior Apprentice Dick and Trenshu。
Speaking of which, Renard and these people are graduates of the same grade as the War College, and they are also very familiar with each other, but they are usually people who live on two parallel lines, although everyone knows each other, but they have never communicated, and they are together at the moment, there are many common topics, and everyone is not unfamiliar at all while eating and chatting.
But apparently the team members led by Benjamin are a little more famous, and even the arrogant Craigie is humble when he greets them.
For the first time, I've seen a 'white-robed magician' other than Sue.
She was Mia, the priest's apprentice who came to the temple, and she wore a white priest's robe, the kind of skirt made of whole white silk, which looked very gorgeous, and the aristocratic temperament seemed to have an invisible aura on her, but when she saw me, she smiled at me with a kind smile, and nodded, as if to say hello.
That's when I realized that her face was actually a little similar to Bobby's girlfriend Millie, like a sister.
"When Millie was at home, she often mentioned to me that her boyfriend Bobby had a great friend named Jijia, who was one of the best freshmen in the Academy of Magic this year, and it seemed that she really lived up to her name!" ”
I knew in my heart, and sure enough, according to aristocratic etiquette, I gently grasped her fingertips, lowered my head and gently kissed the back of her hand.
But Benjamin got up from his seat, turned to Mia's side, elegantly put his hand on her fragrant shoulder, smiled softly at Mia, and said to me proudly: "Mia is now my fiancée, Jijia, I want to invite you to my engagement ceremony, I don't know if I can enjoy it?"
It's no wonder I've been around lately. Senior Benjamin is always full of spring breeze, and it seems that he has completely come out of Sophie's shadow, and the beautiful priestess Mia in front of her is also a great beauty, standing with Benjamin Senior, it is really like a heavenly design.
