259 Song of Shellay
Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
This little girl, who chatters and asks as soon as she sees Gordon, is called Yashna. Sharan. She has just turned twelve years old this year, only about 1.4 meters tall, her slender and flat body shows that she has not yet entered puberty, and her sassy golden hair is short, which even makes Gordon think this is a cute boy when he first sees her.
Don't look at her young age, she is also a dignified three-ring mage, and it is said that she can touch the fourth layer of magic net within a year or two. Looks like a talented little guy again.
And the third mage, a quiet and delicate girl with a doll's head, is three years older than Ashna, and is actually the same as Ruth, and her spell attainments have reached the fourth ring. Could it be that the Grand Duke saw this mission as a good opportunity to train the young seeds of the mage group under his command?
That's a battle against a cult like the Three Holy Baptists that worship the Demon Lord! If you are not careful, your life can be in danger. Is it really okay to do this?
However, unlike Ashina, the delicate girl named Jiaxi is not interested in Gordon at all, and can even be said to be faintly repulsive. During the meeting, apart from a brief greeting, she never said a word to Gordon, but occasionally glanced at Ruth, and then lowered her head with a crimson face.
"It's an interesting interpersonal ......," Gordon smiled slightly, but did not break it.
Among all the members of this mission is Jude from the Temple of Dawn. Frey was the most senior and experienced, so he was the captain. Gordon is tasked with finding the right opportunity to use the rainbow crystal to open the portal and create a channel for the army to attack.
In addition, due to the fear that the stronghold of the Three Holy Baptists has some means of prohibiting teleportation spells. Therefore, the three mages, Ruth, Ashina, and Jiaxi, are responsible for jointly casting some kind of counterspell when necessary. Make sure Gordon is able to build the portal along the way.
And he, all of you, need to do everything possible to ensure that a few mages complete the task.
The team exited the city hall and headed out of the city. It seemed to be able to premonition the arduousness of this mission, so everyone didn't say much along the way, except for the youngest Ashna, who didn't know how to worry and kept pestering Gordon to ask questions.
"Mr. Gordon, I heard that you fought against the Fire Demon, is it powerful? Isn't it five stories high. The flames emitted from your body can burn a forest in an instant? ”
"Little girl, didn't you learn it in the Upper Realm Biology course? The most typical abyssal creature of the Fire Demon should be described in detail in the books. ”
At first, Gordon answered Ashna's question very seriously, but who knew that the other party was endless, and soon made him lose patience. Gordon felt that if he didn't harden his heart and reject this self-cooked little girl, he would be annoyed in the future.
Gordon's refusal sent Yashna to her mouth. The faint freckles near the bridge of the nose are also squeezed together. However, it was quiet for a while, and when the team came to the north gate of Bishui City and got the horses specially prepared for them, the little girl became excited again.
"Look, there's a beautiful sister on the boat looking this way!" Yashna pointed to the Waru Canal, which was located on the east side of the main road, jumping and jumping with excitement.
I may have been infected by her liveliness and cheerfulness. Many of the men in the group looked in the direction of their fingers, and Gordon was no exception.
A three-masted wide-bodied merchant ship was sailing out of the waterway of the city, and next to the statue of Arcadi, the Lady of the Wind in the bow, stood a longbow, wearing a brown leather cuirass and tight trousers. Girl wearing buckskin boots. The river breeze that blows the sails also blows her turquoise show with the wind.
The girl stared intently at Gordon and the group. Although the distance is far away, most people can't see her face clearly, but just by the slender figure full of feminine charm, you can conclude that this is a very beautiful girl.
"Are you here to see you off?" Deirit. Karkin said. His voice was unusually low due to the heavy full-coverage dragon-shaped helmet.
"Hey, Brother Jude, did you 'enlighten' a girl who came to the temple for help recently, and now they have come to say goodbye?" Antonov, a giant man with a red giant sword on his back and more than two meters tall, squeezed Jude's eyes.
Among the men, this middle-aged male charm, who is undoubtedly a handsome uncle's combat priest in the eyes of women, is the most "suspicious".
"Not me." Jude shook his head and glanced meaningfully at Gordon.
Gordon didn't expect it to be so coincidental, and he actually went out of the city with the merchant ship Shellaya was on.
At this time, Shella, who was standing in the bow of the ship, took the longbow from his back, and then set up an arrow, drew the string, and shot. The arrow pierced the sky, making a clear sound similar to the chirping of a bird.
"It's a green-billed arrow." Jude said, well-informed.
"What do you mean, Uncle Jude?" Ashna, whose curiosity seems to never be satisfied, asked.
A lively and lovely girl asked herself, and Jude, who was full of gentlemanly demeanor, was naturally happy to explain: "The green-billed bird is the god in charge of history and destiny in the elven god system. The symbol of Innori. Legend has it that this bird brings good luck. Among the elves of Antolia and other places, there is a custom. If the lover is about to go on a long journey to fight, then the elf girls will make a special arrow with their own hands. This kind of arrow makes a call similar to that of a green-billed bird when it flies, so it is called a green-billed arrow. During the send-off ceremony, the elven girls will shoot this handmade zuò arrow to pray for good luck and peace for their loved ones. Am I right, Mr. Gordon? ”
"That's right......" Gordon nodded, and now almost everyone's eyes were focused on him.
"It turns out that girl is your lover. Hey, you lucky mage! Antonov laughed and hammered Gordon.
Shellaya held the longbow in her hand, her fingertips gliding gently over the surface of the bow. It was a gift from Gordon, a magical longbow called "Whisper". Hold it as if your lover is still by your side.
She stood at the bow of the boat and looked out to the shore. She knew that Gordon must have been watching her at this time, and a thousand complicated tastes suddenly welled up in her heart. Shellay remembered when she was a child, when her parents were still alive, and her mother sang songs for her father on the day of his parting on the battlefield.
Thoughts flowed slowly through the river of memory, and before she knew it, the half-elf girl was humming her mother's song. The song became clearer and clearer, drifting to the shore with the cold river breeze......
Shellaya has a good voice, and Gordon has felt it in the basement of the Sun Elf Castle. This time, she sang in Elven language in a gentle and sad voice, full of parting sorrow. Even a few Golden Dragon Sword Guards, who were taking care of their luggage, were infected by the song at this time, stopped what they were doing, and listened quietly.
"The tune is good, what do the lyrics mean?" Antonov asked. It seems that he is not the type to learn other languages.
"You are about to travel far away, and my heart is full of sorrow; If you're tired, if you're hesitating, remember this place where you can rest freely......"
Antonov grinned and said, "The song is a good song, but it is not for me." It's still the battle song of the Knights! ”
Gordon's ears were filled with the melodious singing of his lover, and he didn't hear Antonov's comments at all.
The mage smiled and chanted a spell, and an emerald green ball of light took shape in his hand. He flicked his hand, and the ball of light flew straight above the canal, blooming like a ceremonial flower, forming a pattern of oak leaves.
Shellaya looked at the beautiful patterns of arcane energy in the air and felt as if she was wrapped in a feeling of joy and warmth, as if she was being held tightly by a lover. She recalled the first intimate encounter between the two under the golden oak tree......
"Mr. Gordon, does that oak leaf mean anything?" Ashna asked, tugging at Gordon's sleeve.
"That's my secret with that beautiful sister." Gordon said in a low voice, then laughed. His deliberate behavior of selling off the guan made the curious Yashna grit her teeth, and her heart was like a cat scratch.
"Come out, Great Love Sage. In order for you to come back alive and meet your beautiful little "qingren", I will save your life. Jude laughed.
Everyone got on their horses. This pre-departure episode made the atmosphere of this team a lot more relaxed, and it seemed that the road ahead was not as bumpy as expected.
Ruth froze in place, replaying the hand Gordon had just revealed.
"If I'm not mistaken, Gordon is just a zero-ring spell 'magic trick'. I often use this spell to tease children, but it is absolutely impossible to create such a large 'ceremonial flower' like Gordon. Before leaving, my uncle once told me to learn from Gordon, but I didn't think so at the time, but now I realize how big the gap between myself and Gordon is......"
If Gordon told this mage that he was just relying on his mana and could squander some of it at will, so when he used his magic tricks, he added the magic technique "Intermediate Spell Strength", I don't know what he would think.
"Hey! Boy, why are you still standing there, get on the horse and get out! Antonov, with a loud voice, reminded Ruth. He pointed to the sky, "Do you see those feathered black geese in the sky?" They, like us, had to travel north to reach the barren tundra before the start of spring. You don't want to be behind these birds, do you? ”
The long-feathered black goose is a migratory bird that lives in the north of the Big 6. They travel thousands of kilometres to the warmer southeastern lake network before winter hits. Before the beginning of spring, they return to the north early to prepare for the next generation.
This bird is huge, always appears in flocks, and because of its incredible altitude and degree, it has few natural predators in nature. The greatest danger they face on their journey north to the barren tundra is the orcs who hunt frantically to store food for the invasion of the south.
