Chapter 884: A Town with Mines

The wind blowing in the forest sea vaguely carried the roar of the demonic beast, which was terrifying.

Fortunately, the newly built concrete walls are tall and sturdy, which makes the town's residents feel at ease.

Vichy stood on the balcony of her bedroom in her dressing gown, with a view of the terrifying place to the west.

This is a town more than ten kilometers deep into the forest, and in the center of the town is the entrance of an underground magic crystal mine.

The town was built on the Magic Crystal Mine, and all its inhabitants served it.

The cool wind cleared Vichy's head a little, but the frustration caused by the defeat did not diminish it.

She didn't expect that the cute little girl who had been hugging her and rubbing her face for almost ten minutes when they first met many years ago would actually beat her in a game that was extremely important to her.

Vichy carefully recalls the details of the last moment.

When a huge block of ice falls, you can confidently break it down, smashing a safe area for yourself.

But just before the mace collided with the ice, he could feel the mace in his hand come out of his hand, as if someone had forcefully pulled it out of his hand.

The disarming of the weapon means that the entire magic circuit of the magic that is ready to be fired is interrupted, and he is not killed by the ice block, but by the magic backlash.

At this moment a carriage drove into the gate with the sound of the bell, and when the carriage stopped in front of the building, Vichy had already jumped off the balcony and directed the maids to help the drunken father to the living room to rest.

"Vivi ......"

The drunk man on the sofa beckoned to his daughter, and he said excitedly: "Today, the butler of Lord Count Henier said that as long as you are in the top four in this competition, Lord Count will canonize you as a knight!"

Vichy, who was holding a cup of hot tea and was about to hand it to her father, trembled, and her whole body froze there.

Vichy's father is the last generation of hereditary knights, and if the father and daughter are not canonized, then Vichy will have to return to the civilian class.

She showed great talent since she was a child, and her family entrusted various connections at all costs to send her to study with the old lady Rozana of the Black Eagle Chamber of Commerce of the Duchy of Milan, and then got a letter of recommendation to go to the Shield Bridge Academy, in order to be canonized by her own strength.

Vichy herself is also very competitive, her strength is much higher than her peers, and what is missing is just a heavyweight stage to show her talent.

Originally, the condition of the earl lord was that she should be crowned the champion in order to be canonized, but now with her father's efforts, this condition has been reduced to the top four.

Vichy could imagine how much effort her father had put into it, and how much it had cost. The managers on the Magic Crystal Mine have all changed into carts that don't use horses, and only his father is still riding in the carriage.

As a result, he didn't even make it to the top 16.

She lowered her head, and a voice as thin as a mosquito squeezed out of her mouth: "I'm sorry, father, I lost." ”

Her father's ears were good, and he was stunned for a moment, then reached out and slowly took the teacup from his daughter's hand.

"If you lose, you lose, and that's okay. He comforted his daughter, "If it doesn't work this time, there will be a next time, isn't the competition between schools postponed to next year, and there will be a chance to perform well at that time." ”

Vichy lowered her head and said softly "um", and then said, "Father, I have decided to go back to school tomorrow. ”

Her father thought for a moment, nodded lightly and said, "It's okay, you've been training outside for two years, and it's time to go back and sort out the experience you've gained." ”

"You go to Granada and find a lady DeLauris who sells 'Charles intestines'. ”

"My friends and I survived after she and her husband Handington fought to the death, and I owe them a favor. ”

"The president of the Adventurers' Guild in Granada City wrote last time that Lady DeLauris's son, Little Huntington, was going to Knowledge City this year, and you could just mention him on the way. ”

Although her father was only a steward who managed the kitchen in the mine, he was good at dancing with long sleeves and made a lot of friends with the resources of the magic crystal mine.

"By the way!" her father suddenly remembered something, "the son of Count Henir has come to the island incognito, and if you see him, help him." ”

Vichy sighed in her heart and asked, "What kind of person is the son of Count Henir?"

As a result, her father did not know, on the one hand, the son of the Count of Henir had been living in the territory and rarely showed his head, and on the other hand, the town had just been transferred to the Count for a few years, and they did not know much about the affairs of the Earl's family.

Vichy understood the deep meaning of what her father said, and if she couldn't follow the path of the current earl, she would try to follow the path of the earl's son.

Although there is some disgust, there is nothing to be done.

The father and daughter spoke a few more words, and then went back to their rooms to rest.

When a new day dawned, Vichy led her horse out of the house.

It was also time for the miners to change shifts, and the workers who lived near the walls of the town were walking down the road next to Vichy's house, singing about the entrance to the laneway.

The miners, dressed in rags and holding a pickaxe, walked silently with their heads bowed, and could smell their smell from afar.

Vichy led the horse back a few steps, lest the fleas on their bodies wait to jump on her.

Growing up watching these miners who had never changed much, Vichy was a little panicked, and her father told her when she was a child that if she didn't work hard to become a knight, then she would live like these miners in the future.

Naturally, she didn't want to live a life where she could only eat rough food every day, sweat and work like rain for a day and couldn't take a shower, and finding an opportunity to canonize a knight and continue to live a good life was her biggest goal in life.

Not far away, another group of miners walked up, and one of the middle-aged men looked out of place with the people around him.

His clothes were not shabby, and although his face was sad, his waist was straight, completely different from the stooping miners around him.

When Wei Qi saw the handsome middle-aged man, she couldn't help but feel a little pity in her heart, he should be a businessman who had fallen into bad luck, and then came to the magic crystal mine to try his luck.

Theoretically, half of the magic crystals dug up by the civilian miners belong to them, but there are tricks in the mine that make them spit it all out, such as the cost of leaving the town, which they cannot afford.

Vichy, who came to try her luck, saw a lot, and what awaited them in the end was to become like the miners around her.

Brando, who was in the crowd, also saw Vichy, his face did not change, but he was still surprised in his heart.

Brando watched Diana's game last night and recognized her opponent's appearance, but she couldn't have imagined that person would be here.

He lowered his head and continued to follow the miners towards the entrance of the tunnel, Weizi's matter was not as important as investigating the survival of the local miners.
