The display in the lounge is not so luxurious, on the contrary, it is somewhat shabby. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info just placed a heavy wooden long square table in the center of the room, surrounded by four benches with backrests, poorly made, and the marks of axe chopping are still vivid. A row of oak wardrobes sits on the wall, and the doors are carved with lotus trees and ivory towers, which look a bit like the magic academy in El City.

The long square table looked old, the varnish had been worn off in several places on the table, and there were several delicate porcelain plates on it, but there was no food in sight, and the flames on the candles on the candlesticks were like a dancing fire spirit, emitting a soft light.

The square table was full of bottles of golden cider, and the rich aroma of wine wafted out of the room, and the most remaining in the cellar were golden ciders of various vintages.

The two slave girls sat at the square table with crimson faces and drank each other, the golden liquid exuded a seductive luster in the transparent glass, they raised their beautiful faces drunken and hazy, and looked blankly at me standing at the door, and they were a little overwhelmed for a while. A woman with long white hair, covered in a thin veil, boldly walked from the house to the door, looking at me with a bewildered chest, her chest so high that her chest was dazzlingly white.

Her skin was pale and smooth, she looked like the kind of woman who never did rough work, she stood in the doorway with a graceful body, she saw that the chains that bound Demi had been severed, and she looked at me with a little wariness.

However, I saw that she could move around the room at will, without any shackles of slave status, and guessed that her identity must be unusual.

She lowered her head and asked Ann beside her, "Ann, who is he?"

"Aunt Arya, he's Jiga, the one who came in from outside to save us!He's the apprentice of a great and mysterious magician!" Ann said, it turns out that I am like this in Ann's heart at the moment, Ann has her own understanding of the magic apprentice: it is actually the apprentice of a great and mysterious magician, I don't know how Mentor Heidi will react when she hears Ann say this about her.

It turned out that this was the younger sister of Count Zimmermann, she looked young, or very well maintained, there was no fat on her body, and her whole body was still full of youthful vitality.

"What about Anthony?" Arya looked at me in surprise, took Ann in her arms, and asked Ann again.

Ann pointed to Anthony lying on the ground not far away, at this time Demi was groping for something on Anthony's body, and after a while she found a bunch of keys, she got up from the ground, and when she passed Arya, she hugged her, and then excitedly said to her: "Aunt Arya, we are saved, this magician saved us!"

The woman suddenly leaned on the door frame, hugged Ann in her arms all of a sudden, and said, "Thank you, Lady Liberty!"

"You owe it to Eva, the goddess of water, I'm Jiga, an apprentice of water magic at the Academy of Magic in El City, and I'm sorry for what you've suffered!" I said to Arya.

At this time, she hurriedly put down the place and gave me a deep salute, her noble etiquette was very elegant, and at first glance she was a woman with an orthodox aristocratic education. She said to me, "Thank you very much for your help, Your Excellency Apprentice of Magic. ”

Demi opened one of the doors in the lounge, and from inside came the sound of a woman crying miserably. And the two slave girls who were sitting on the lounge benches and drinking golden cider leisurely turned ugly for a moment when they heard our conversation.

At this moment, I was secretly looking at Arya's ivory body under the light veil, and she felt the burning gaze of me looking at her body, and shyly put her hand on her chest, and said to me boldly with her eyes: "As a noble baron, it is very rude for you to look directly at a noble lady like this, you should behave more elegantly!"

Her words made me a little embarrassed, but it was difficult for me to control my eyes not to look at the plump body, her body was like a magnet with strong suction, although her face was not beautiful, but the style of a mature aristocratic woman was vividly displayed, and she didn't even have to wear it

The kind of court-style evening dress with a cinched waist, without wearing expensive jewelry, and without a maid holding the corners of her skirt for her, she just stood there casually, looking like a noblewoman.

"You don't mind if I take care of a little bit of the Zimmerman's personal affairs?" said Arya to me, as if thinking of something.

I felt like my face was feverish, and I quickly shook my head.

Arya turned around and saw a woman trying to shrink into the corner, walked over, stood in front of her, reached out and pulled her by the hair, dragged her out of the corner, the woman knelt on the ground, the hair was pulled by Arya in her hand, she tried to straighten her body and relieve her pain, but she did not dare to resist at all, nor did she open her mouth to beg for mercy.

She raised her head and slapped the woman hard. It wasn't until he punched her in the face like a pig's head that he stopped and kicked her to the ground again.

I stood here very embarrassed, now that Demi had found the key to the room in the lounge, she should be able to solve the matter by herself, I think she is a strong girl, compared to Demi, Arya has more of the intelligence of a noble woman, she is more tactful when things happen.

From the fact that she was imprisoned in the lounge without a slave collar, she knew that she was better at protecting herself and could handle the affairs around her more in her own favor. Both Demi and Ann are grateful to Arya, not directly ignoring the other women in the room, who must be secretly helping the siblings.

Ann came out of the lounge, looking at me with red eyes, he held the firearm tightly in his hand, his eyes showed a deep hatred, and said to me, "Jijia, I want to save the other people in the manor, I want to kill them with my own hands!"

I said, "Well, if you're not afraid of having nightmares for the next few months, I'm not against you doing this." ”

He didn't seem to understand why I was saying this, but the first time I killed the grey dwarf bandits, I had to rest in Katerina's room for a long time before I forgot about it.

......

Walking out of the lounge, I suddenly found that Anthony's body lying outside showed signs of being turned over, and then looked at the fat chef Joseph, only to see that there was only a large pool of blood under the row of barrels, and Joseph, who was stuck under the barrel shelves, was actually gone.

I looked at the blood on the ground with some regret, and they shouldn't have gone too far.

Unexpectedly, just a few minutes after I entered the lounge, two of Joseph's other companions actually rescued him.

I said to Ann, "Tell your sister, lock the door to the lounge from the inside, they have found me, I will go to them, and you will stay in the lounge here." ”

"I'm going with you!" Ann said stubbornly.

I wanted him to go out and exercise, so I said, "Okay, take care of yourself, and be sure to stay with me." ”

I loaded his handcuff with a copper bean and taught him how to use it, and after a few times of shooting at the stone wall, he confidently raised the handcuff and followed me.

The magic crystal fragment on the handcuff looks new, the chamber and the bracket are not worn out in any way, and the crosshair is also very good when Ann shoots, it seems that this handcuff must have taken Benjamin a lot of thought, he must have wanted to make up for the lack of melee combat of magicians, so he thought of giving me such a dexterous and convenient handcuff!

Since they had discovered it, there was no need to cover it up, so I cast an 'ice shield technique' on myself, and the three ice shields slowly rotated around me, and four stone drum totems of different colors emitted a true glow in the wine cellar, and also floated around my body.

Whenever at this time, when the sapphire stone drum totem is by my side, constantly condensing mana from the void, and making the magic elements around me very full, Sister Guoguo's water element body will appear, and she will absorb the elemental power condensed by the sapphire stone drum totem with me.

Ann on the side looked at me enviously, with curious eyes, and asked me, "Jijia, this is the power of magic?"

"That's right, these are the powers of magic!" I said with a nod to him.

Following the bloodstains, in a hidden corner of our cellar, we found Joseph, who had been dead for a long time, and saw that his broken leg showed signs of being bandaged, but unfortunately the treatment was a little late, and in the end his two companions could not save his life.

Seeing the freshly cut marks on the oak barrel on the side, it must have been caused by the anger of those two people.

I'm worried that these two people's physique is as good as Anthony's, after all, the two of them are engaged in the profession of the manor, one of them is named Hank, which shows that his equestrian skills must not be too bad, and raising horses is a hard work, giving horses water, cutting hay, scraping horse sweat, and cleaning up horse manure are all physical work, without a strong body, it is difficult to raise horses well, and every civilian in the empire will serve in the military when he is young, and he can survive from the battlefield, and sometimes it is also a manifestation of his own strength.

Count Zimmermann himself is a fifteen-level knight, so there are several war horses with very pure blood in the manor, and these war horses will add nutritious soybeans to the forage, but they can't be too fat, otherwise they will not be able to run on the battlefield, and regularly bring them to the pasture to run to their heart's content, which is also the daily work of Mafu Hanke. This groom is not a simple commoner either.

This wine cellar comparable to a football field is so big that the total number of barrels stacked together exceeds 30,000, and there were originally candles lit on each stone pillar here, but later the candles on these walls were thought to be collected, and the whole wine cellar became pitch black, and became a natural place to hide, if someone wanted to hide in the cellar and did not come out, even if a dozen people looked for him at the same time, it would be difficult to find him.

I didn't expect that they would rescue Joseph from the accident in the first place, and I also heard from his mouth about our strength, they knew that I was a magic apprentice, so they were afraid to hide, and I didn't have the slightest way.

"Is there any good way to find them?" I asked, sitting on a wine barrel.

Ann scratched her head a little distressedly, and said with an idea: "We lock up the food stored in the other two warehouses, and if there is nothing to eat, they will be starved and run out!"

That's probably how these guys dealt with Ann the other day, I think.

"Forget it, if there is that time, I can rescue you, just leave them here, it is better to leave them here to fend for themselves, of course, when you leave, you have to take all the food, I have no objection. I said to Ann, "Maybe Captain Cynthia is trying to figure out how to dig up this huge cellar right now, and then we will be saved!"

"It's a pity that once the cellar is dug up, these golden ciders will not be kept!" Ann said to me, and in Ann's eyes, these golden ciders seemed to be the greatest treasure his father had left him.

He sat on the barrel and kicked it with his heels, making a dull sound: " Dad told me that what those barbarians actually want most is the cider stored in the manor, these barbarians of the Storm Bear tribe are different from the barbarians of the Celtic tribe, they come to the far north of the ice and snow tundra, it is even colder, they don't care about any mineral income, they are born predators, and the most important thing is that the barbarians of these Storm Bear tribes are addicted to alcohol, although the golden cider is not quite to their taste, they prefer ale, but something is better than nothing!"

Finally Ann said, "Even if you smash them all, you can't leave these golden ciders to those barbarians, not even a barrel!"

In Ann's heart was filled with hatred for those barbarians, but then again, what about any inhabitant of Sloyd, and the barbarian who did not hate these slave hunters? ”

"Yes, let them taste what it's like to be slaves, too!" said Ann resentfully, the seeds of hatred planted in the little child's heart.

"You're going to inherit everything here, you're going to be the new Earl of Zimmerman Manor, don't let yourself be burdened with so much hatred!" I reassured him.

"I don't want to run such a manor, I hate those civilians!" Ann curled up, hugged her knees, buried her head in her head and whispered to me, "My father gave them such a good job, so that they could live on the manor without worry, but what did they bring me in the end? My mother, aunt, sister, and my father's other women were all ruined at the hands of the commoners, and their lives would be stained with those stains for the rest of their lives, and the honor of the Zimmerman family would be tarnished. When I grow up, I want to go to the army and kill those barbarians, so that I won't give other noble friends a chance to humiliate me, and I want to become a great knight like my father!"

I originally thought that Ann was too young and didn't understand much about men and women, so he turned a blind eye to Demi and Arya's outfits and the scars on their bodies, but I didn't expect him to just stop talking, in fact, he knew better than anyone else, he pretended not to understand, just didn't want Demi and Alia to be more sad and ugly.

He looked at me and said, "If I could, I would exchange all the wine in this cellar for the death of both of them." ”

I looked at him in amazement......

Ann looked at me firmly and said, "I don't want them to take the secrets of the cellar out, not even the slightest chance to leave them behind!"

I asked him in surprise, "You're not afraid I'll say it?"

He hesitated slightly, and finally said what was in his heart: "So, I will plead with you! Help me keep this secret!"

I thought about it, for this aristocratic child with an extremely heavy heart, he really can't handle it too casually, maybe he will accidentally turn a good thing into a bad thing, so I asked him: "Do you need to sign a 'magic contract' with you and me?"

Sure enough, there was joy in his eyes, and he immediately looked up at me and said, "If you can!"

"Of course, when we get back to El City, we'll go to the magic grocery store and buy a magic contract scroll!" I said to him, with a deep sigh.

The people of this world trust the magic contract immensely, and they believe that once the contract is made, no one will break the magic contract.

At this moment, Ann's face looked much more relaxed, perhaps the biggest thing in his heart.

"I'll repay you, Giga, and there's more to the Zimmerman family!" Ann said to me.

I thought that maybe when he saw Captain Cynthia, he would ask her to destroy the golden cider in the cellar along with the two men who had escaped, so I persuaded him: "When we get out, we'll bury this place again, and when the next big snow comes, who will know that there are so many golden ciders hidden here?"

"I've decided that I won't be coming back!" Ann suddenly looked at me and asked, "They say that magicians have some magical abilities, if you can get rid of these golden ciders, won't we be able to find Hank and Joe?"

"Perhaps...... I have!" I said to him after a moment's hesitation.
