Chapter 617: Rescuing the Snake Man (1) (1/2)
'Gollum~Gollum~'
With the wheels rolling, Bryant sat in the carriage that the harbor magistrate had arranged for him, and drove all the way to the center of Scorched Earth. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Today, the road is 20 meters wide, reinforced and leveled with petrification, and the road is so straight that at first glance, it is almost a straight line. On both sides of the avenue, neatly arranged substantial buildings rise from the ground, stretching from the harbour to the scorched earth ridge in the distance.
Looking out of the front window of the carriage, you can see countless criss-crossing buildings, stretching all the way to a dozen miles away, there is the towering magic tower complex.
From a distance, you can clearly see that there are many criss-crossing networks of magical energy in the air around the magic tower, these magical energy are pale gold, and under the faint light they appear, the light of the entire scorched earth city is particularly bright and warm, as if the sun is everywhere.
Looking at this magnificent city bathed in sunlight, Bryant felt that his mood involuntarily became much more cheerful and peaceful.
He had just seen the Bone Fortress in the north, and his heart was unconsciously filled with many dark and negative emotions, which dissipated before he knew it.
"It's a beautiful city." He couldn't help but praise it.
As soon as he finished speaking, a voice came from his sleeve: "Pretty fart!" I hate it, it's too bright and hot, and the air is filled with the stench of Terrans, it's a disgusting place! If one day my father takes over here, I will definitely let him push it to that tower as soon as possible! ”
Bryant felt the cold feeling of the squirming in his sleeve, and reminded: "I think you better not speak, we are very close to the magic tower now, be careful of exposure!" ”
"You don't need to remind me!" There was a muttering sound in his sleeve, and then it fell silent.
The carriage continued to move forward, all the way to the entrance of the gate of the scorched earth ridge in the core of scorched earth city without incident, and when he arrived here, Bryant was suddenly startled in his heart, and he looked out of the carriage and saw a black-haired young man standing at the door, smiling at him.
The young man was wearing a magic robe and holding an ordinary magic wand in his hand, looking like an ordinary magic apprentice, but Bryant knew that all this was a magic illusion, and the aura of power leaking from the other party's body had already explained his identity.
This is Link himself.
The 'Magic Apprentice' walked up, opened the carriage door for Briantra, and gave a mage salute: "Master, please follow me." ”
Bryant felt his heart beat a little faster, and he was a little overwhelmed by the unexpected situation, and he couldn't figure out what was wrong.
Seriously, although Nosamas asked him to find an opportunity to kill Link, Bryant never had this intention, the time stagnation time was too short, only a little more than a second, if you want to kill Link, then ask him to determine Link's location and be close enough to him before activating the Time Rune.
But as soon as the distance is close, then he is easy to be countered by the opponent when he uses the rune, maybe, before his rune is activated, he will be killed by the other party first, then no matter how strong the rune is, it will be empty.
Now seeing that Link had unexpectedly come to greet him in person, Bryant secretly screamed in his heart, and wanted to turn around and leave immediately.
But he is not an ordinary person after all, this panic lasted for a moment and then disappeared, he coughed lightly, adjusted his emotions: "Link, why are you here in person?" ”
As she spoke, Bryant tightened her arms slightly, quietly reminding her to be careful, and the little snake squirmed slightly in response. Bryant could feel that the little snake was also very nervous, and since Link appeared, she had remained motionless, as if she had hibernated.
He didn't know that his anomaly had already been seen by Link, and he had suspected that there was something wrong with Bryant early on, and then he had roughly confirmed his previous conjecture by making a special observation.
He sighed in his heart, "It seems that Celine's prophecy dream is almost true...... I really didn't expect that the high elves would be so decisive that they would directly turn around and cooperate with the Legion of Destruction. ’
Although he thought so in his heart, Link didn't show half a point on his face, and a relaxed smile appeared on his face: "I've been idle for the past few days anyway, and I heard that you are coming, so I naturally want to come to see you...... You said you were going to talk to me about contacting the Aragu plane, and I would love to hear about it."
Connecting to the Aragu Plane was something that Bryant had discussed with Link on the surface.
Bryant didn't expect Link to care so much about this, he was slightly stunned, and said with a smile: "I see, then you please first." ”
The two walked one after the other on the streets of Scorched Earth Ridge.
Compared with the bustling outer city of Scorched Earth City, Scorched Earth Ridge, which is the inner city, is a different picture.
Most of the people living in the outer city are ordinary people, and although their houses are neatly planned, because they are built too quickly, many details are still very rough, and new houses are still being built in many places.
The inner city is inhabited by high-level people in the scorched earth city, there are high-level military and political officials, magicians, etc., the buildings in the inner city are almost all completed, the style of the inner city is exquisite with grandeur, grandeur but it seems very quiet, there are not many pedestrians on the street, one by one is well-dressed, and you can see many young magicians coming and going.
There was one person who bowed his head in contemplation, and several people walked with him, discussing as they went, and everyone walked very fast, like a trot.
Bryant also saw several apprentices eating on the streets, reading spellbooks, eager to break two points a minute and use them.
This kind of busy state is absolutely impossible to see on Dawn Island.
The life span of the high elves is nearly three times that of the human race, and their magical talent is much stronger than that of the human race, and there are thousands of years of quiet and peace, the high elves generally like to be quiet and serene, if there is a young magician who can devote 8 hours a day to learning magic, it is already the top diligence.
Bryant walked all the way, and when he saw such a scene, he was fascinated.
He remembered his younger years, when he was preoccupied with the mysteries of magic, but because the level of magic of the Terrans was so low, he had to study from all over the world.
His footprints are almost all over the Pheroman plane, dwarves, Job, dragons, and Dawn Island, he has all gone to study, and he really trekked through mountains and rivers, and he is most impressed by the time he studied magic in Andurol, the royal court of Dawn Island.
In order to get the opportunity to study magic on Dawn Island, he paid a huge sum of 200,000 gold coins, and helped the high elves do a lot of shady 'dirty things' in the Feroman Continent on the way, even so, the maximum level of the magic book he obtained was still no more than level 8.
When he walked through the streets of Andurol, the elves would avoid him when they saw him, and then hide and whisper, looking at him like a monkey.
Those years were the time when his magic level improved the fastest, but they were also the most humiliating years of his life.
Looking at the prospect again, he couldn't help but say to Link: "Lord, you have built this magic tower, these young people are blessed, they don't have to run around for a little magic knowledge. ”
Link shook his head and smiled: "Whether it's blessed or not, it's not clear now." Although I built the magic tower, I also offended many people. The city may be prosperous today, but it may be scorched tomorrow. Another example is me, I may be envied today, but tomorrow my body may be destroyed and my soul will be tortured...... Fate is unpredictable, who knows? ”
These words seemed to mean something, and Bryant listened to it, his heart beat violently, and he smiled dryly: "Lord, how can this be? ”
Link smiled noncommittally, and at this time, the two walked to a garden courtyard, and Link stopped in front of this courtyard and stretched out his hand to make an invitation: "Please, what's the matter, let's talk about it here?" ”
Bryant was stunned for a moment and looked at the magic tower not far away: "Hasn't it always been in your magic tower?" ”
The Divine Destruction Detection Rune he carried told him that Katyusha was imprisoned in the magic tower, but now that he couldn't enter the magic tower, he couldn't locate Katyusha, let alone save people.
Link smiled slightly: "My magic tower is now closed to outsiders, this is the latest rule. ”
"Oh, let's talk about it here." Bryant was slightly disappointed, but this was unexpected, but it was also reasonable, Field and Dawn Island had already clashed many times in secret, and it was normal for him to defend the other party.
He still has a countermeasure.
After entering the courtyard, a beautiful puppet maid came up and put dessert on the table, Link sat down on a chair at random, and asked, "I read your paperwork, so Dawn Island is ready to contact the Aragu plane?" ”
Bryant nodded: "In fact, the preliminary preparations are already underway, of course, a small portal. Princess Avril is missing for some reason, but the royal throne can't be broken, so we're ready to contact Princess Milda to get back. During this process, there will be some special fluctuations in the plane, but this is normal, and we hope that Field will not overreact. ”
"Oh, I see." Link nodded, what Bryant meant by this was that he was afraid that he would think too much, so he informed him in advance, so as not to be suspicious of each other and make an unpleasant fuss.
After a pause, Link asked again, "Is there anything else going on?" ”
"One more thing, yes, the matter of opening the dimensional portal is very complicated and dangerous, we are not absolutely sure to do this, and Her Highness Mirda must not have an accident. That's why I brought the portal magic circle we designed, and what your majesty meant was to let you help modify and improve it, and we would pay you accordingly. ”
"That's right..... Is this urgent? Link asked.
"The sooner the better, I'll wait here for the next few days, and when you change it, I'll take it directly." Bryant actually took out a blueprint of the portal and handed it to Link.
Link took it and looked at it, it was complicated, but it was indeed the appearance of the plane teleportation magic array, he nodded, and said, "I will perfect it as soon as possible, at most...... Three days. ”
"Thank you so much. In the meantime, I'll be waiting for you in the outer city. Bryant took the initiative.
"That's not necessary, you just live in this courtyard, it's quieter here."
Brian nodded in response, and he was very cooperative.
Link didn't say much, turned around and left. Bryant walked all the way to the courtyard door, and after watching Link leave, he turned back to the courtyard.
"Okay, it's up to you, Morna, you have to be careful along the way, Link is acting very strangely, I suspect he got some kind of news."
"Understood." Morna was the name of the little snake, and this time she didn't argue with Bryant, and after answering the call, she slipped out of Bryant's wrist, swam into the garden, and finally disappeared into the underground drain in the middle of the street. (To be continued.) )
