Chapter 13: Arrival

"The Prairie of Death, it really is not something that mortals can cross!"

Leylin sat in the carriage, his body continued to jolt with the carriage, the small window opened, and a yellow sunlight shone in, bringing a little life to the carriage.

It has been more than ten days since the last scavenging wolf attack, and in these ten days, as they go deeper into the grassland, the convoy encounters more and more dangers.

Only now did Leylin know that the scavenging wolves were only at the bottom of the steppe food chain, and above them, there were many more cunning and ferocious predators.

Along the way, Leylin encounters several groups of creatures that are no less large than the previous wolf packs.

In addition to the scavenging wolf, there is also a flock of black giant birds several meters high, and even a huge monster more than ten meters long, which looks like a saber-toothed tiger, but its body shape is the same as that of a small mountain, and the breath alone suffocates Lei Lin.

Fortunately, the mortality rate of the apprentices seemed to have reached the limit, and the white-robed wizards also began to take action, not only laying defensive witch arrays on each carriage, but also directly dispersing the beasts, so as to avoid a large number of casualties in the convoy.

The most dangerous one was the confrontation with the monster that was more than ten meters long.

Fortunately, the monster like a hill seemed to have intelligence, and knew that the white-robed wizards were not easy to mess with, and left after a confrontation without attacking it, much to the relief of everyone in the convoy.

"It's time!" Lei Lin took out his pocket watch and looked at the hands, which had already pointed to about three o'clock in the afternoon.

Standing up and opening the front door of the carriage, a moist breeze blew, which seemed to have a salty smell and smelled very fresh, Leylin couldn't help but take a few deep breaths before sitting next to Angleigh.

"Good afternoon!

"Good afternoon! polite noble gentleman!" Angley didn't look back, and directly handed the whip and reins to Leylin, "It's just right, I want to rest!"

Leylin smiled, took the whip, and skilfully drove the carriage.

Angray leaned to the side and untied a kettle from his waist, and when he opened it, a strong smell of wine came out, and he lowered his head and took a sip, narrowing his eyes in relief.

"We'll be at our destination soon, and for the sake of the carriage you've been driving for me for a month, I can answer you two questions!"

Leylin was looking at the scenery on both sides when he heard Angleigh's voice come from him.

"Okay!" Leylin smiled, he had a good relationship with Angleigh and had this in mind.

"So, the first question, what's at the destination?"

"Some of the temporary tents of the Academy, where you will be free to choose the Academy to join according to your interests, and take a more accurate qualification test!"

Angel replied, looking a little impatient on his face, "These wizards will explain when they arrive at the destination, don't waste the opportunity!"

"Accurate qualification test?" Lei Lin was stunned for a moment, and then recalled that he had only been identified as a wizard and was sent to the carriage by the Viscount, and as for the quality of the qualifications, he didn't know anything.

"The temporary tent of the academy looks like the school enrollment in the world before me, but I don't know what conditions are required?"

"Okay! Second question! What is a wizard like in your mind!"

Leylin asked the second question.

"Wizards, they have great power, they seek the truth, and they are based on the principle of equal exchange, boy, do not have any illusions that you can get benefits from wizards for free, or the flames of * will pour out of the abyss and punish your soul!"

Angleigh's face twitched, as if he had thought of something bad, and his voice suddenly became extremely low.

"Seeking the truth, exchanging the price, I like it!" a smile tugged at the corner of Leylin's mouth.

After answering, Angley seemed to lose interest in speaking, poured two sips of strong wine, lowered his head and closed his eyes, and after ten minutes, the sound of snoring came.

Lei Lin looked at the scenery in front of him boredly, although the grassland scenery was beautiful, but after looking at it for a month, he already had the feeling of wanting to vomit.

"It's ......"

As the carriage progressed, there was less and less green in the distance, replaced by a vast blue and gusts of wind.

"It's finally here, Dead Coast!"

Angleigh, who was sleeping on the side, opened his eyes and looked at Leylin, "We're at our destination!"

As the sea got closer and closer, at the end of Leylin's line of sight, a market-like place appeared.

Tall and low tents lined up, some of them oddly shaped, forming a large camp, and around it, dozens of carriages of the same style as the one that Leylin was driving now.

And the most, like them, were apprentices of thirteen or fourteen years old, with a look of curiosity on their faces, Lei Lin roughly counted, and knew that there were at least hundreds of people, crowding this camp, and from time to time apprentices walked in and out of the tent with different expressions on their faces.

"Alright, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the middle stop of the journey, the Dead Coast, where you will decide on your future academy and follow your teachers back to your respective schools for wizarding practice!"

The carriage procession stopped, and three white-robed men came out and gathered the apprentices together, and the crow at the head said.

"Now, you follow me into the camp, choose the academy, remember! You can check multiple colleges, but once you have signed the contract, you can't go back! Those who violate will be hanged outside the camp gate!"

The crow's voice was cold, and the words he spoke made the apprentices feel even more chilled.

"Haha! Crows, you're late today!" a voice sounded, and a big fat man came out of the camp, also wearing a white robe, and greeted: "Don't scare the lovely new blood!"

"There's a bit of trouble on the way!" Raven explained.

"All right, new bloods, now follow me into the camp!" said the fat man and the crow again, and then turned back and shouted to Leylin and them.

"You can call me Jia Long, from the beautiful Nine-Ring White Pagoda, believe me, if you want to choose the academy, the Nine-Ring White Pagoda is definitely the best choice!"

Armor said as he led the apprentices into the camp.

As soon as he entered the camp, all kinds of sounds came to his ears, making Lei Lin almost think that he had returned to the vegetable market in his previous life, and the three white robes seemed to have something to do and quickly left the team.

Most of them were wizard apprentices like them, some in a circle, some constantly moving in and out of their tents.

Jia Long took Lei Lin and his group, a total of about forty people, to the middle of the camp.

There is a large plain white tent with strange patterns attached to the outside, which looks like both decoration and writing.

Lei Lin couldn't help but look at it carefully, "Chip! Scan!"

"Drop! form an image!" the chip feeds back the information, but in the stereoscopic image, there is nothing on the white tent, as if there is never any zĂ i pattern.

"How so?" Leylin stared at the tent again in disbelief.

As the minutes passed, the patterns on the tent seemed to come to life, and they kept writhing.

"Hee-hee!" "Haha!"

Thunder Lin's ears rang with all sorts of voices. The surrounding light seemed to be distorted, and Leylin looked at his hand, which seemed to be stretched a lot at this time, and it looked extremely slender.

"Thunderlin! Thunderlin, what's wrong with you?"

Lei Lin suddenly felt a spirit all over his body, came to his senses, and looked around, the apprentices were still listening to the fat man of Jia Long, and they all seemed to have recovered to their original state.

"Or is it just an illusion?" Lei Lin was shocked, "Chip, bring up my state just now!"

"Drop!" The light blue light curtain appeared, and the pictures just now kept appearing in front of Lei Lin's eyes, "The cardiovascular and cerebrovascular flow rate of the main body is abnormal, check it immediately!"

"The main body is in an abnormal state!

"The state of the main body is restored!" Rows of numbers kept emerging, letting Lei Lin know that what he had just done was not an illusion.

"Whew...... Are all wizards' things so secret?" Lei Lin wiped a cold sweat, still lingering at what he had just experienced.

"Leylin, you look so bad, you can't be sick, right?" asked George, who was on the side.

"No matter who it is, after what happened just now, his face won't be much better!" Lei Lin scolded in his heart, knowing that his face must be the same as a dead man now.

"I didn't ...... It's nothing...... Where did Jia Long go?" Lei Lin quickly changed the subject.

"Oh, you want us to go in and fill out the form, test the qualifications! And then it's free time, you can choose your own college!"

"Because you're late, there's still one day left, and within this day, you have to choose the academy to study, otherwise you'll have to wait until next year!"

"Now, line up one by one to come to me to get the form, and then go in and test!"

Along sat behind a white desk and handed out a stack of table-like things.

The team moved quickly, and soon it was Leylin's turn.

"Fill in your information here, then enter the tent and do what the people inside say!"

Lei Lin took the form and found that it was made of fine parchment, and there was very little information on it, just fill in a few items such as name, age, and place of birth.

Picking up the quill on the table, Leylin quickly filled it in.

The pale red ink draws intricate patterns on the parchment, and it looks beautiful.

"I didn't expect that the mainland writing of this gentleman is not bad!" After Lei Lin finished writing, he picked up the parchment and entered the white tent.

"Come here!" the old voice rang out.

The tent was empty, except for an old woman with white hair sitting behind a black chair with a crystal ball on the table.

"Well, why did I suddenly think of a witch for divination!"

"Hello!" said Leylin as he came to the witch and saluted.

"Bring the form!" Apparently, the witch did not eat it, and her voice was as cold as ever.

"Thunderlin, is it? Put your hand on the crystal ball!"
