Chapter 15: Admonition
Time passes slowly,
The snowstorm, which had been falling for several days, seemed to be showing signs of stopping.
In the crowded and warm carriage, Old Delin is still telling the heroic story of the Enchanted Ridge.
From time to time, a sentence or two of laughter can be heard, and there can also be occasional angry scolding of old Delin blowing his nose and glaring, which is dissatisfied with the interjection and questioning of Bar Jingfu.
Afra and Leon were just loyal spectators, listening to the heroes of Old Delin and watching Ford and Old Delin raise the bar.
For a while, the atmosphere in the carriage was still very warm and harmonious.
Walking in such a cold and snowy day is not difficult.
But there is an end to the journey.
As the snow subsided, the sky began to brighten.
At the end of the line of sight, a huge and majestic city building began to appear in front of the eyes of everyone in the carriage.
'Enchanted Ridge! ’
A sacred place located in the cold region of the northwestern part of the continent.
It is also one of the several sacred sites in the entire Altrian continent.
Here, countless Terran heroes have walked out, and some of them have become famous on the mainland; Others have died silently;
Some of them are for the human race to fight against monsters and resist demons, and they have made brilliant feats, leaving epic names and immortal legends;
There are also some who are willing to fall into the abyss and live with darkness for the rest of their lives!
......
'Squeak! ’
In a small town at the foot of the Enchanted Ridge, the carriage stopped.
A few people stepped out of the carriage, and as soon as they stood firmly, they hurriedly looked at the majestic city in the distance.
I saw in the distance between the towering mountains, covered with snow that has not melted all year round.
The Enchanted Ridge, a huge ancient city, seems to have a magical power to become the center of heaven and earth, making every human who arrives here feel awe from the bottom of their hearts.
It is precisely because of the existence and suppression of the magic ridge that the demon monsters hidden between the countless mountains dare not harass and wreak havoc.
"This is the town of Talen, so I can only send you here!"
Old Delin said as he cleared the snow from the pony.
"Walk up from the town of Talen, and that's the main city of the Enchanted Ridge!"
"However, there will be guards to check when you enter the main city, but you are all professional rookies who have just walked out of the village, so I guess they won't stop you!"
"Gollum... Grunt! ”
As he spoke, Old Delin took out the small wine jug on his body, and after taking two sips, he screwed the lid on, and muttered: "I must bring more ale wine when I go back this time!" ”
"Also, old man Delin, we're all here for the first time, is there anything we should pay attention to here?"
Seeing that Old Delin began to drink, Li Ang hurriedly asked.
Because of this old man, he will be confused when he drinks, and now hurry up and ask a few more words, and the next road will be better.
Hearing Leon's question, Afra had already planned to leave, but also took it back.
It was also the first time she had come to a holy city-level city like the Enchanted Ridge.
Even though she is one of the most powerful and difficult members of the Magical Guild in the entire continent of Altria, she still needs to be cautious, even if she is just getting started.
In this world, not only the monsters and demons are terrifying, but what is even more terrifying is the demons that lurk in the depths of human hearts.
This is what her mentor told her before he died.
"Is there anything to pay attention to?"
"Uh... Let me think about it, old man! ”
Old Delin shook his head and poured another sip of wine in his hand.
Sure enough, once you start drinking, it's going to look like this.
Li Ang sighed slightly in his heart, he didn't plan to get any experience from Old Delin.
"There you have, I remember!"
Old Delin patted his head and said:
"Tell you, little ones, that you all know that the tavern in every place is the easiest place to find out."
"But I tell you, the tavern is also one of the most unreliable places, for most of the news is hearsay, although there are some seductive news that comes from the death of an unknown number of lives."
"So, for you rookies who have just stepped into the profession, don't go to the tavern, and if you do, don't easily believe what other adventurers say!"
"Like the 'blue dragon' I told you about before, don't try to get interested in them, at least until you advance to the advanced classes."
"Of course, the most suitable for you is naturally to go to the Adventurer Mercenary Guild, where there are countless tasks suitable for you, although the commission is not high, but that is where you should learn next!"
"Okay, that's all the old man knows!"
"Remember, think calmly when you encounter problems!"
"Although the 'Enchanted Ridge' has given birth to great epic heroes like 'Lord Karatyu', it is more of an adventurer like you who died namelessly!"
"That's it, goodbye, I'm going to change the hooves of my little darling, and I hope there's a day when I'll see you again!"
Speaking of this, the expression on Old Delin's face suddenly became a little lonely.
But soon, old Delin returned to normal, waved the flask in his hand, got into the carriage and left.
"Delin, old man, goodbye!"
"Next time I'll ride in your carriage!"
Seeing that Old Delin simply walked away, Li Ang shouted.
"Afra... You... Let's go inside the 'Enchanted Ridge' too! ”
"I'm with Ford, or we're together... Happen to have a companion too? ”
Leon couldn't help but ask as he watched Afra, who was dressed in a light blue robe, preparing to leave.
Hearing Li Ang's question, the eyes of the tall and strong Ford on the side immediately lit up a little.
Sure enough, a girl like Afra, who has a good figure, stunning appearance, and a childlike face, and is still a magician, there is no man who will not like it!
"Together?"
"Okay, but I'll leave when I get to the Enchanted Ridge!"
Afra thought about it, but nodded, she was also here for the first time, and it was okay to have a companion for the time being.
"Of course you can, in fact we are the same, we need to go to the adventurer's guild here to see if there is a suitable one for us"
Seeing that Afra agreed, Li Ang smiled and hurriedly said.
After speaking, several people chatted and walked towards the depths of the town.
......
At this time, among the mountains far from the Enchanted Ridge, there is the remains of a large temple buried deep underground.
Inside the spacious hall of the temple, piles of flames were burning.
Above the flames were whole bison, porcupines, and the like that had been stripped and roasted.
Surrounded by flames, the green was a series of goblins that were all red.
At this time, with the help of a vampire bat the size of a human head and a pitch-black body, they were carefully scattering the small amount of spices on the bison on the barbecue grill.
At this time, the entire hall was already filled with the fragrance of roasted bison.
Every crimson flame goblin and a handful of green-skinned orcs were drooling with greed, but not a single crimson dared to steal a bite of meat from this barbecue grill!
Because in the depths of this hall, in that shadow-shrouded place, lies a blue terrifying beast, who is also their master.
A creature that only appears in legends: 'Dragon! ’
