Because of Ashrosfin's reminder, Roland and the others did not enter the city when they passed through Bianca, but bypassed the city from the side road.

The eldest prince spends most of his time in the royal city, especially at such critical moments, when he must have to win allies in the political center, divide enemies and so on.

Although the eldest prince did speak wildly before, and Bianca City did have some concerns about the queen's whereabouts, Bianca City also had a large floating population, and it was impossible for them to check all of them, and most importantly, Roland and the others bypassed from outside the city, which made it even more impossible for the soldiers of Bianca City to know that the queen had passed here.

After that, the convoy passed through two cities, and Roland communicated with the presidents of the magic towers in both cities, and he was lucky, the presidents of the two magic towers were people who were willing to communicate and progress.

Roland communicated with them for four or five days each, and gained a lot.

The same goes for magic apprentices.

It takes time to communicate, and it takes time to travel, and the convoy has been gone for almost a month before Roland and the others have reached Reed Village.

It was already evening, and several horse-drawn carriages were driving on the somewhat narrow dirt road, and the trees on both sides were bathed in the orange-red sunset.

Andonara sat in the carriage, looking a little uneasy.

The so-called homesickness is roughly like this.

Roland was still taking time to study elven magic, and he was thinking about how to reduce the cost of elven magic.

There are now two directions, one is to change the node effect of the elven magic and reduce the energy consumption.

The other is to change one's mental power structure.

None of this is a simple matter.

In fact, there is a third method, which is to make an alchemy item or magic equipment that can store elemental magic and change the frequency of magic power.

It's just a pity that Roland doesn't know alchemy, and he has only learned magic at the surface.

So the third method can only be given up and focus on the first two methods.

And both methods have a high probability of implementation.

When a person is very concentrated, it is difficult for him to feel the change of time.

Roland had been immersed in studying magic since noon, and it had been six hours by now.

But he was still in that posture, still that expression, almost unchanged for a few hours, if it weren't for the fact that his body was swaying with the carriage and keeping his center of gravity, outsiders would definitely think that this was a rather realistic wax figure, or an undead puppet.

The convoy came to a stop in front of a village.

The village is enclosed by a mossy wooden fence and an earthy dirt path leads to the village center.

There was also a gate made of wooden fences on the wooden fence, and when I saw the convoy, several children covered with loess, patches on their clothes, and snotty noses piled up the wooden fence together.

As the carriage entered the village, Andonara took the initiative to sit down and said, "Go straight in a moment, turn right at the first fork, and stop in front of the tallest and most beautiful building in the village." ”

"Understood." The coachman answered.

About a dozen minutes later, the convoy stopped in front of a small white stone third-floor building.

In front of the small building, there is a wooden fence, which is covered with green vines and plants, and flowers are blooming, yellow and white, making the wooden fence look like a beautiful plant wall.

Hearing the sound of the carriage, a rather handsome middle-aged man appeared on the second floor, and after a while, a boy of about ten years old also appeared on the balcony, and the two of them looked at the convoy downstairs with interest.

Andonara sat down next to Roland, shook the latter's arm slightly, and said, "We're in Reed Village." ”

Roland was shaken awake by him, stunned for a moment, and then followed Andona out of the car.

As soon as Andonara, who jumped out of the carriage, looked up and saw the middle-aged man and the little boy on the balcony, she smiled and waved upward.

The middle-aged man was a little surprised to see her, and quickly pulled the little boy and disappeared from the balcony.

After a while, the two walked out of the small building, opened the wooden fence door, and the middle-aged man approached, looked at Hoi An Donara, and then looked at Roland with a strange expression.

He didn't speak.

But the ten-year-old boy ran over and stood in front of Andonara, and said excitedly, "Cousin, you're finally back." How many days are you going to stay? ”

The little boy was also very handsome, and Andonara touched his little head and said with a smile, "At least stay for four or five days." ”

Then Andonara's eyes were raised, and he looked handsome, with his hands behind his back, standing like a green pine, and said, "Uncle, I'm back." ”

"I see it." The middle-aged man looked at Roland and said, "Anna, don't you want to introduce this friend?" ”

Andonara's nickname among her relatives is Anna.

The middle-aged man kept looking at Roland, and the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became.

He is a composite professional, similar to a magic swordsman, who can cast spells, so he has a good perception of mental power fluctuations.

And Andonara is a great swordsman, a pure physical professional, and she can't feel the fluctuations of mental power.

Therefore, the middle-aged man can feel the amazing huge magical power in Roland's body.

"This is the man I chose, Roland." Andonara's expression was a little shy, and she introduced the two of them: "Roland, this is my uncle, Cage Reed. ”

"Hello, Lord Reed."

Roland bent down slightly, since he was Andonara's elder, the necessary etiquette still had to be there.

"Hello, Lord Roland." Cage looked at Roland again for a while, his expression was extremely strange, as if he had a lot to ask and say, but finally smiled: "It's nice to meet you too." ”

At this time, the little boy next to him jumped up and shouted quite dissatisfiedly, "You haven't introduced me yet!" ”

Andonara gently patted the top of the little boy's head twice and said, "This is my cousin Kaido Reed." ”

Roland smiled at the little boy, "Hello, little Reed. ”

"You're dressed as a magician?" Kaido walked up to Roland, looked up at the latter adoringly, and asked in a childlike and innocent tone, "Brother Roland, can you teach me magic?" ”

"Yes, as long as you want to learn." Roland replied.

Cage shook his head and said, "Your Excellency, you don't have to pay attention to Kaido, he can't learn magic, it's better to say that our family can't learn elemental magic casually." ”

"Why?" Roland was a little puzzled, he could feel that whether it was Cage or Kaido, who was only about ten years old, there was a lot of magic in his body, and such magic could at least be used to cast second-level magic.

"It seems to be in our bloodline." Cage said with a smile.

"Brave blood?" Roland subconsciously asked.

At this time, Cage frowned slightly, as if to look at Andonara reproachfully.

And Roland naturally noticed this little expression of the other party, and he said: "It wasn't Andonara who told me, someone else." ”

Cage asked, "Who is it?" ”

"Antis."

Cage was silent for a moment, he naturally knew who Antis was.

He was also a nobleman, and although his status was not high, he occasionally went to live in the royal city, and met Antis several times as a child.

Antis is a relative of the royal family, with a very high status, and Andonara grew up with childhood sweethearts, originally he thought that these two equally beautiful people would get together, but he didn't expect that Andonara didn't even have any interest in Antis.

At this time, Vivien and the other six magic apprentices also got out of the car, and after Cage knew that these were nobles at a glance, he greeted with a smile: "Welcome to my guests, please come in." ”

With that, he stepped out of the way of the wooden fence and made a gesture to invite in.

Then a middle-aged housekeeper came out of the small building and led everyone into the room.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw a huge mural on the wall of the main hall.

Dressed in white armor and armed with a blue flame sword and a white shield with a fire phoenix shading, the brave man trampled a huge red demon with horns to the ground and was about to stab him to death with a sword.

The eyes of all the guests were drawn to this mural.

Cage smiled triumphantly.

Andonara's relaxed expression when she returned home looked left and right and asked, "My father hasn't been back here lately?" ”

"He's gone to Urganda with a caravan." While inviting everyone to sit down, Qi Qi said, "It happened more than three months ago. ”

"You sit down first, and I'll prepare dinner for you." After that, Andona pulled upstairs, and after a while, she changed into her regular clothes, and at the same time took two maids behind her, and changed her clothes, she seemed to have a more virtuous taste of his wife: "Roland, what do you want to eat?" ”

"Whatever!"

'Whatever' was the hardest word to get along, and Andonara gave Roland a blank look and went to the kitchen with the two maids.

Roland, on the other hand, introduced the identities of Vivian and the others to Cage.

Hearing that they were magic apprentices who traveled to study, Cage sat on the main seat, revealing a hint of nostalgia: "When I was young, I also worked as a mercenary for several years, and my life during that time still appears in my dreams from time to time. ”

"It turns out that Your Excellency was also a mercenary." Vivien said with some surprise: "Andonara also served as a mercenary, so she learned from you. ”

Cage touched his stubble quite smugly: "I taught her swordsmanship, although now her strength is almost beyond mine." ”

At the first glance of Cage, Roland vaguely guessed that Andonara's swordsmanship should have been taught by the latter.

After all, Andonara said that her father was a minor nobleman and a businessman, and he ran around as an adult, and every time before running a business, he would put the young Andonara to live temporarily at her eldest brother's house, which is here in Reed Village.

So Reed Village is Andonara's second home.

Cage chatted enthusiastically with everyone for a while, and when the butler came down, the Lord asked the butler to take the six magic disciples to the rooms that had been cleaned to rest for a while, and he hooked his finger at Roland at the same time.

Roland followed him to the third-floor living room balcony.

Looking at the low thatched cottage of the village in the distance, Cage asked slowly, "What is the matter with you and Anna, how can she, a queen, get mixed up with you?" ”
