"Look, it's Obojar up ahead!"

The horizon gradually widened, and large areas of farmland were scattered. The tall spired towers that towered in the city walls in the distance slowly became clear, giving an inexplicable sense of relief in the setting sun. Occasionally, a giant bat can be seen passing by. The giant bat is a large exotic beast with a docile temperament and a strong sense of direction, and the domesticated giant bat can provide flight services between two places, limited to two people, and the price is much lower than that of a mechanical airship. Of course, the disadvantages are...... It's so smelly, so anti-odor masks are very popular in major cities.

After some inspection by the guards, the two entered the city, and it was another lively scene. The main road, paved with large bluestone slabs, is bustling with shops on both sides, and there are small vendors selling all kinds of knick-knacks on the roadside. Weapons shops, magic shops, taverns, inns, fortune telling houses, auction houses, there are always a lot of things to see.

"Obojar is so big, I'm tired. Felder leaned back in his chair and gasped, he might have been lost without Vane. "This is the singing sheep? It doesn't feel like a house for the green violin. ”

"Have you found a serious problem...... Vane whispered to Felder as the maid approached. "We don't seem to have any money. ”

"Do you two need something to drink? or something, we've got the freshest oatmeal bread in town. ”

"No, no, we're actually looking for someone, his name is Hill, and he's a bard. Vane cramped.

"Kelly, give each of those two friends a good oatmeal bread and a Solsen beer, and the cost will be mine. The man at the next table said to the maid. The man who spoke looked to be in his thirties and personable.

"Are you Hill?" Vane guessed.

"Did Mars ask you to come?" the man asked, not replying, "I guess you're here to inquire about something important. ”

Vane looked at him in surprise, "How do you know?"

"It's simple. Your slightly Saulsen-esque accent is exactly the same as Mars's. And if you walk a few hours to find me, you can't just come to hear a story. Tell me, what do you want to inquire about?"

Vane told Hill about his uncle from start to finish.

After listening to this, Hill pondered for a moment and said, "In the recent period, specifically in the last month, I have also found some unusual signs. The beasts in the forest seem to be more irritable than before, and hurtful things happen from time to time. In a city like Obojar, which is on the periphery of the forest, most of the guards are drawn from the city guard to stand guard near the main roads outside the city. It's not just strange, there are also a lot of magicians in the city, who are hurried and acting mysteriously, and I once overheard them mention the Floating City, and the Magic Kingdom of Divosk. Your uncle is also a magician, and the map marks the Floating City, so I think it's very likely that he went there. ”

"You guys should find a place to rest first, I don't know where the floating city is, it's not too late to get well prepared before going. Hill kindly added.

After eating and drinking, the sky was full of stars after leaving the tavern, and Vane walked on the bluestone pavement with a lot of confusion.

Obojar is a northern city with a strong people, and it is more populated by mercenaries with all kinds of swords, guns, swords, and axes, and it is not a popular place for magicians. During the two years that Vane had studied at the Academy of Magic, he had hardly seen any other magicians except for his teacher. True magicians are scarce and solitary, making it almost impossible to appear here in large numbers.

Unless...... It was the Wizards' Guild that mobilized a large number of mages for some important reason. Is this possible?

According to the Chronicles of Lafrey, more than 300 years ago, the continent of Lafrey was still uninhabited. The distant continent of Akanster is prosperous, the winds of magic prevail, and the various races live in peace. Humans, dwarves, and goblins all have many outstanding magicians, and of course human magicians make up the majority, probably because there are more humans with magical talents. The uniqueness of the mage lies in the variety and devastating nature of the magic, and the top archmage can even decide the life and death of a city. Because of this, the magician has gradually become synonymous with hegemony, and those who have the status of a magician can ignore the law and rise above others, and the rule of the kingdoms is useless. The situation intensified, and the clashes between forces such as magicians and craftsmen, knights, hunters, and the royal family quickly spiraled out of control.

The other forces of Akanster have banded together to form the Rebel Mage Alliance. The rebels gathered all their forces and launched an unprecedented assault on the magicians. Towns and cities were destroyed, civilians were displaced, and fighting raged across the continent of Akanster.

After years of fighting, the rebels used the power of machinery to weaken the mage's power. The decisive battle takes place in the Central Forest, and in the end the magicians are defeated, the archmage Lance falls, some of the magicians surrender, and some of them flee.

At this point, the war ended with the victory of the rebels, and it is known as the Battle of the Ages. However, the good times didn't last long. Greedy adventurers are constantly searching for the treasures left behind on the battlefield in the central forests, and the power of Lance, the staff of the great mage, makes them even more striking. But none of the people who entered the Central Forest, which is also known as the Cursed Forest, ever returned. Heavy snow fell in the north of Akanster and gradually turned into ice fields, and the continuous high temperature and drought in the south gradually turned into a desert. Most of the survivors left the continent on which they depended and left for other parts of the world.

Most of them came to the continent of Raffrey to start a new life. After careful deliberation, the nations decided to restore the normal status of mages and establish a mage's guild to restrain them. The First President personally sealed the devastating spells in the Tower of Magic in the Floating City.

It seems that it is necessary to go to the Floating City to find out the whereabouts of my uncle in person. The basic condition for entering the Floating City is to become a member of the Wizards' Guild, so joining the Guild will become an unavoidable challenge, so go ahead and try it. Vane thought.

The two of them passed by the door of a hotel, and Vane suddenly slapped his head and said, "No money! I said Felder, we look like we're going to sleep on the street today! I knew that Hill would help us find a place to sleep." ”

"Vane, why are you more cheeky than me now, by the way, aren't you going to the Magic Guild to participate in the membership assessment? Let's go over and have a look!"

"It's so late, I'm afraid there's no one there, what's going to be there?" Vane wondered.

"Let's go and see. Felder couldn't help but pull Wayne and let him lead the way.

It was a featureless wooden door with dim wall lamps and a sign hanging above it telling them that this was the Obojar branch of the Sorcerer's Guild.

"Bang bang bang. Felder stepped on the steps, his fingers tapping on the wooden door echoing through the empty streets, making his heart beat a little faster.

After a few minutes, the two turned around in disappointment and prepared to leave.

The door behind "Squeak......" opened.
