Chapter 136: The Divine Work in the Heart
Vig lived in the manor for a few days, and his original sallow complexion improved, and his complexion became more and more ruddy. He was now dressed in a long black coat and was sitting at his desk learning some simple Mars script.
Since he didn't need to worry about food now, he began to learn the language of the empire, trying to understand the history of the empire's continent, the geography and provinces, etc., hoping to use knowledge to change himself, at least not as ignorant as before.
He suddenly saw Grant, dressed in a black robe, walk in, so he greeted him with a smile.
When Grant heard Vig's words, he couldn't help but think that when he was researching in the slums before, he always forgot to wash his clothes and eat on time, and Vig's grandfather warned him many times, but he didn't care at that time, because there might be an army of war elves and orcs at any time, and these pressures made him dare not relax.
Now that everything is settled, Grant is left with only the soul seed in his body to be exorcized!
"Grandpa Vig, I'm going to get out of here and go where I'm supposed to be."
Grant walked slowly into the room, found the wooden bed and sat down with the help of the dim light of the room, he stared at Grandpa Vig and waved his hand to put the prepared food and clothes, as well as miscellaneous items on the floor and desk.
"These are all things I bought today, I haven't repaid you all this time, these are my last parting gifts, but unfortunately I'm not good at developing potions, like life-prolonging potions, I can't make them, I can only make these things."
"Wow~~"
Suddenly, a cool breeze blew outside the window, and the curling lights were blown to the ground, as if they would be extinguished at any time, Grandpa Vig's expression changed slightly, and the reluctance in his eyes was fleeting. Soon showed a happy expression and said proudly: "Grant is really a promising child." When you left Wanghuo City, you told me that you wanted to go to the wider world. ”
"I was mentally prepared for you to go. I'm very happy with these things you bought. It's just that I want to grant me one request before you go. ”
Vig put down the black brown book and shifted his chair to face Grant.
"What's the matter?" Grant's eyes crossed with a hint of surprise.
"Tell me a story, like you told me before, only this time you tell a shorter story, and I hope you can finish it before you leave."
"Yes." Grant nodded suddenly, and said with a smile on the corner of his lips: "I'll tell you a very fantastic and wonderful novel today, at least it's a masterpiece in my heart." ”
"What is a masterpiece?" Vig looked puzzled.
Grant, thinking that people in this world could not understand the meaning of God's work, explained, "It's just that this story is great. And I feel like it's like God wrote it. ”
"This story is called "Wizarding World", it is a story that describes the background of the wizarding world, wizards and mages are the same profession, the story mainly tells the story of a small rural nobleman Anglie who became a legendary wizard, his life is a glorious legend, countless life and death adventures, countless casting brilliance, and even resisting aliens to protect the wizard's country."
Grant recalled the memories in his mind and spoke slowly.
…………
Early morning. There was still a lot of moisture in the air, and the gray patch blurred the manor building, and only the outline of the two-storey building standing near the lake could be distinguished, and the windows were lit sporadically.
Grant walked out of Grandpa Wig's room without sleep. Stretch your limbs.
Powerful mages need very little sleep a day, like a second-order mage only needs two hours a day to make up, and a first-order mage needs four hours to be refreshed.
"Grandpa Vig has fallen asleep. I'd better have breakfast first, and ask the old servant to help me park the carriage outside the iron fence of the manor. There's no other arrangement anyway. By the way, I will say goodbye to Hyland and the Emir, and visit them in Black Pine City if I have time in the future. ”
Grant made a decision and walked into the living room.
A crystal lamp hangs from the top of the empty living room. At this moment, it was radiating a golden glow, and some maids in black and white maid costumes on both sides of the table hurriedly set up breakfast.
There are a lot of food on the table, such as fluffy white bread, milky Scottish milk, pork ham, salmon and fish.
"Grant, you came out of Vig's room like you hadn't slept all night? It's better not to wait for tomorrow to leave, after all, it's better to have enough spirit to travel. ”
Hailan did not wear a white robe, but a noble and delicate dress, with long golden hair tied back and a strand of blonde hair on her forehead hanging down to her eyes. At this moment, a pair of eyes on his handsome face noticed Grant and smiled at him in a friendly manner.
"No, you know that mages don't need much sleep. I'll have breakfast first, and by the way, why didn't I see the emir? ”
Grant glanced around a few times and found that Hyland was the only one sitting here eating her breakfast.
"Sleeping in the bedroom in the backyard, would you be interested in catching a look at her?"
"No need, if I am alive in the future, I will visit Black Pine City, what are your plans now?"
Grant pushed away a mahogany bench, sat on the chair and tore the soft and fragrant white bread with both hands and put it into his mouth, the sweet and fluffy face tasted like a marshmallow, and the aroma of milk made Grant's face look intoxicated. These white breads are not tasted in the slums.
Hailan sighed: "It's okay if you don't go to the Emir's side, anyway, your goal is to chase the strong, and you are destined to waste no time here, as for me, I will live in Black Pine City for a while before making a decision, I am very likely to go to the mage cluster, and I will need your help then." ”
"Well, if you go to the mage cluster, I will definitely help you, you give me the communication charm first, and I will keep it for you and contact you later."
"Of course." Hyland nodded unceremoniously.
He stretched out his hand, which was as white and slender as a woman, and his fingertips drew a few gray runes in the void, and with a slap of his hands, he poured into Grant's right arm to form a curved bow pattern.
After Hailan did all this, her face turned slightly pale, as if she was under heavy pressure.
Grant suggested when he saw that the communication rune was done.
"Hyland. Before I go, you'd better hurry up. If the orc forces come to Bliss, you'll be in trouble. The city of Briss was unable to stop them. ”
"Got it." Hylan wiped her forehead and agreed.
After the exchange, Grant and Hyland slowly savored the breakfast and sweet milk.
While they were eating, a servant pushed open the wooden door and walked to Grant's side, and said respectfully, "There is a mage outside who wants you to go out and meet him, his name is Mage Melio." ”
"Melio?" A trace of surprise crossed Grant's eyes, and he thought and wondered in his mind: "What is he doing here?" Could it be that you can't find someone else? Or some other task. ”
Grant didn't understand, but his face was calm and said, "I know, you go out first." ”
"I'll go out and talk to Master Melio, Helan, you can eat here now."
Grant put down his silver cutlery. The cloth wiped the food crumbs left at the corner of his mouth and left his seat.
"There you go." Hyland didn't quite understand, but he knew it wasn't a bad thing.
Walking through a gray and secluded path, with patches of gray moisture floating in the air, Grant could only see the environment in front of him for more than ten meters, and he felt as if he was in a mysterious world, which was far from being replaced by a game.
A red carriage was parked at the iron fence gate, and four or five people were standing there.
At the foreground was an old man in a fiery red robe, his red hair and beard resembling a raging flame. Holding a Nanmu staff in his left hand, he stood by the door, and behind him stood three guards wearing silver armor and with an aura of about the level of ordinary knights, they seemed to be wood. There is no action.
Because the old man in the fiery red robe was covered in a rushing heat, there was no moisture at all within a dozen meters nearby, and Grant could see him from afar.
"Dear Mage Melio. I wonder what's going on here? ”
Grant pushed open the iron fence door and stood under the door frame and bowed slightly.
Melio stared at Grant. Showing a slight smile: "I heard that you are leaving here today, so I plan to tell you to walk through the Orleans Gorge alone." Go to the Mage Cluster. There are many poisonous insects and thieves along the way, and it is now the mating season of the monsters, and they are very violent. ”
"What does that mean?" Grant looked at Melio suspiciously, he knew that there was something in the other party's words, but he couldn't guess it.
Melio coughed twice and explained: "Usually like this kind of long distance, in order to save physical strength and energy, they are formed into a caravan, a caravan I know is just leaving today, they are a caravan from the kingdom of Aosta in the north, there are three official knights, six ordinary knights, a first-order mage and a third-order mage apprentice, they need to pass through the Orleans Gorge, just you are your companions." ”
"This ......," Grant mused.
Melio smiled: "Of course, their teacher is my old friend, and the road is a bit dangerous, so I think it will be safe for you to team up together, after all, I hope you can quickly search for Martha's location." ”
"Okay, I'll tidy up my things and go to the city gate with you."
After Grant said hello, he beckoned the old servant to pull the carriage out.
…………
Outside the towering black walls of Briss, there is a bustling flow of people.
On a road by the black pine forest, where three black carriages were parked to graze some hay, and on the carriage sat two white-robed knights, and on the left and right sides of the carriage were four knights in silver and white armor riding on large horses, their eyes fixed on the gate of the city wall.
"You said Uncle Melio helped us find a companion, who is he?"
"How do I know? It'll be clear when he comes, so let's wait for now, and you don't have to bother there. ”
The two white-robed men were talking to each other in the carriage. (To be continued.) )
