June 25, 293 in the continental calendar

In a single courtyard adjacent to the central street in Nanyang City, a black smoke slowly rises.

"This family is really strange! This is not yet the time to pour the meal, and now they are starting to cook on the fire?" The neighbor who passed by the gate of the courtyard saw the scene of "cooking smoke rising", and asked his wife on the side.

"There is a husband and wife living here, both of them are foreigners, blonde and blue-eyed, and they look very weird! It is also common sense to do some weird things, you really have a lot of worries! In a few days, the birthday of the county lord will come, have you bought the birthday gift you prepared?" The wife complained to her husband with a resentful face.

Then he said: "Don't worry about serious things, care about what others do, if you can't give away this year's birthday gift, you won't come back!"

"I can do what is right and sit up straight! How can I do something that is not ashamed of the saints?" The man was very disgusted by his wife's practice, especially when the wife let herself go to the county every once in a while.

"Hmph! Then don't go into the house!" the wife shook her face and walked forward alone, and the man was stunned for a moment, so he chased after him.

It's magic backlash again, and Alberta has basically been tormented back and forth between magic explosions and magic backlash this month.

Alberta, with a dark face, walked out of the barrier, her white face was no longer any other color, and Julia, who was sitting in the middle of the room and eating a snack, was out of breath and laughing.

Julia found a problem, every time Alberta can always change the way to make herself not like a human and a ghost, and the appearance is definitely different.

"If you want to hurry, you can't do it!" Julia said casually, saying the words she had just learned from the Wanqin Empire.

Bang!

Alberta opened a bottle of "Pure Magic Bottle" and the pale blue blister enveloped Alberta's body, gradually absorbing the black stains on his body, but there was no way to repair the torn clothes.

"Julia, almost, almost I feel like I'm going to step into the Magister's neighborhood, I can feel that the majestic black elemental realm is a realm I created myself!" said Alberta with an excited expression.

A mage is a mage who can create his own natal elemental realm, which is also the most basic basis for promotion to a mage. In the neighborhood that he has created, the infinite elemental power is almost "inexhaustible".

"Elberta, do you know how many archmages there are recorded in the Wizards' Guild?" Julia didn't answer Alberta's words, but asked Alberta other questions.

Alberta has never had any concern for the Wizards' Guild, so naturally she doesn't know what information the Wizards' Guild has.

"Thousands!" Julia said to Alberta's surprise.

"Do you know how many Magisters are recorded by the Mercenary Guild?" asked Julia.

Alberta still shook her head.

"Not more than a hundred!" replied Julia.

"That is to say, not all great mages are lucky enough to be promoted to a mage, and how many great mages have become extremely manic and eager for quick success because they have touched the edge of a mage. Do you know how most great magicians die?" Julia asked rhetorically.

"Killed by himself?" Alberta asked.

"Yes, but there are those who have died of magic, and there are those who have died of complete exhaustion of their mental power, and there are those who have completely broken down and become insane! These are all so-called touching the edge of the Magister!" said what Julia said, how could Alberta not understand.

Julia had also persuaded Alberta several times before, but Alberta couldn't listen to it, until recently she found that her control of the black magic element had not made any progress, and there were more and more traces of retreat, which made Alberta panic in her heart, and she cultivated more diligently.

But the result is that the harder you cultivate, the more you retreat, and today you haven't played half of what you used to be, and you will be eaten by magic.

"Am I really going to lose my magic again?" said Alberta, looking at her hands in frustration.

"El, your so-called Magister edge is an illusion. If you do reach the edge of the Magister, imagine if you can survive this countless magical backlash? once a miracle, twice occasionally, and then a third?" Julia asked rhetorically.

"Are you used to it?" Alberta raised her confused eyes, and answered Julia's rhetorical question without thinking at all.

The atmosphere that was originally quite serious was completely ruined by Alberta's words, and Julia, who was smiling angrily, smashed a head-sized water balloon into Alberta with a wave of her hand, and pounced directly on Alberta's head.

Alberta was drenched by this sudden blow, and muttered, "Didn't I even touch the hair of the Magister now?"

"Nonsense! Just arrived at the Great Magi, you can reach the Magister, how many people in the world can reach the level of the Magus at such a young age?" Julia finally felt a little relieved, otherwise Alberta would not recognize himself so clearly, and continue to waste his mental power, not to mention the Great Magi, it is really possible to lose any magical power, and I really don't know how Alberta should face it when the time comes.

"If I can be promoted to a magister, then I'll be the first!" Alberta's face became excited again, but only for a moment.

For a moment, Alberta said to Julia, "Thank you, Julia, for being with me when I was at my lowest, for reminding me when I was lost." Always be there for me!" Alberta looked up at Julia, her eyes brightening.

Alberta walked slowly over to Julia and knelt down on one knee.

"Dear Ms. Julia Campbell, marry me, okay?" Alberta had never felt this way, wanting to go on with Julia forever.

Julia's right hand, which was handing the snack to her mouth, suddenly froze, the snack slipped silently, and her crystal eyes became extremely transparent.

The right hand, as white as a shallot, stretched out to Alberta.

Of course, Alberta understood what this meant, and he didn't have any engagement rings ready, so he could only hurriedly take off his spatial ring and prepare to put it on Julia's ring finger.

"Bead of water bombs!" Julia said with her outstretched right hand directed at Alberta, and then uttered a sentence that stunned Alberta.

Numerous water bullets shot out from Julia's right hand, hitting Alberta's body like a torrential rain, leaving no one spared.

"Sir Alberta Howard, what made you propose to a lady who had been abandoned by Sir Els, was it the temptation of money, or the coercion of love?" said Julia.

Bang, bang, bang, bang! bang!

The sound of raindrops continued to sound, and countless water bombs bloomed on Alberta's body, and Alberta, who was drenched all over his body, covered his head with his arms, and made a muffled whining sound from his mouth.

"Julia, Julia, stop, listen to me, I'm serious, I love you!I—love—you!" When the last three words were shouted, Alberta simply stood up, his hands open, his eyes looking directly at Julia, and let the beads of water hit his body, and roared hoarsely.

At the moment when Alberta roared, the water bomb released by Julia came to an abrupt end, and the words "I love you" were clearly engraved in Julia's mind.

"Alberta Howard, you propose to me again!" said Julia, her eyes were already wet with tears.

The embarrassed Alberta couldn't care about tidying up.

Boom!

Get down on one knee!

"Dear Lady Julia Campbell, marry me, okay? I will protect you for the rest of my life!" said Alberta.

Julia stood up slowly, her lips red and her teeth white, and said, "I don't want to!"

After saying that, Julia laughed out loud.

"Hahahaha! Alberta, your stunned expression is so funny, hahahaha!" Julia laughed as she sat back in her chair.

"Julia!" Alberta raised her voice, seemed to be a little angry, and said with a gloomy face, "I'm serious!"

"I'm serious, and I don't want to think about it now?" replied Julia, casually, but with a look of great seriousness rather than joking.

"Why?" Alberta asked, unsure why.

"Because I haven't had enough fun! This Wanqin Empire is so vast, and there are many places I haven't been to, and besides, I heard that the men of the Wanqin Empire are not bad, and I want to see what kind of man Li Xiangfeng is that you people are looking forward to as a whole!" Julia said playfully, and winked at Alberta.

It seems provocative, but it is full of provocation!

Sooner or later, you have to pay it back, this sentence is really not wrong at all, Alberta failed to propose marriage for the first time in her life!

But it's not for nothing.

Julia was very happy with Alberta's marriage proposal, and Julia pardoned Alberta's debt of 10,000 gold coins as a blessing for this act.

Just as Alberta was thoughtful and happy. Julia's other words made the sinister smile that Alberta had already evoked instantly sink.

"Only this time! Propose marriage later! Add 10,000 yuan of interest each time!" After saying that, Julia walked away, and heard that a new restaurant had opened on Center Street, which was very delicious, and Julia planned to go and taste it at noon today.

In a moment, Alberta, who was standing in the house, suddenly smiled, and then hurriedly "broke down" and chased Julia.

On the Nanyang city wall, Qingyang Lanruo, who was sitting on the top of the arrow tower of the city wall, shook her feet back and forth, looking into the distance.

It is convenient for both feet to be on the ground more than ten meters high from the arrow tower.

Xiao Zhang already has a well-known slogan in the city wall guards, called "follow the fart", and the meaning is very obvious.

Xiao Zhang, who follows Qingyang Lanruo's ass all day long, for fear that Qingyang Lanruo will have some stubble, is very innocent, but he is helpless!

Who made this little girl's waist so hard, the backstage is Zhennan Wangfu, and when he was arranged by the captain to protect this little girl, the captain hated and said to himself: "If she has half a hair damaged, you kid will go and get a hundred whips!" What made him even more chilling was that the captain immediately said: "Deduct another month's military salary!"

Xiao Zhang didn't know if he could resist a hundred whips, but he was sure that he would starve to death without a month's military salary.

Hearing such a stern order, Xiao Zhang trembled to protect Qingyang Lanruo, but he didn't expect Qingyang Lanruo to be like this.

Every day, when Xiao Zhang saw Qingyang Lanruo jumping off the carriage, his mood was even heavier than when he went to the grave of his own mother.

Lying on the bed in the barracks every night is the most relaxing part of Xiao Zhang's day, thinking of the experience during the day, Xiao Zhang unconsciously pleaded with his old mother, who had been dead for many years: "Mother, you are in the spirit of heaven, open your eyes, help your son get through this hurdle!"

Obviously, Xiao Zhang's mother did not appear today, and today Qingyang Lanruo climbed to the top of the arrow tower and sat on the edge of the top of the arrow tower, Xiao Zhang had already thought about where he would be buried after his death.

Now Xiao Zhang is cautiously beside Qingyang Lanruo, staring intently at Qingyang Lanruo, if there is a hint of wind and grass, Xiao Zhang has thought about it, even if he falls, he has to push this little ancestor up.

"Yikes!"

Suddenly, Qingyang Lanruo, who was looking into the distance, noticed something, shouted, and prepared to stand up.

Xiao Zhang, who looked tense, saw Qingyang Lanruo's body move, and his heart "boomed", like an explosion!

At this time, Xiao Zhang didn't think much about it at all, closed his eyes, and pounced on Qingyang Lanruo's body at the moment when her body shook.

Boom!

Xiao Zhang stopped Qingyang Lanruo from falling on the roof of the arrow tower.

"Big brother, what are you doing, you fell to my death!" Qingyang Lan Ruojiao said.

Qingyang Lanruo, who was full of joy, was thrown into the sky full of flowers, sat up and rubbed the skeleton that was about to fall apart, and said angrily to Xiao Zhang.

The two pink cheeks were already full of anger.

Xiao Zhang had a feeling of coming back from the dead, sat up, looked at his intact body, and then looked down from the top of the arrow tower.

A breeze blew, and Xiao Zhang couldn't help but shiver all over his body.

"I didn't fall! I'm still alive!hey, hey, hey!" Xiao Zhang sat where he was and smirked, and then saw Qingyang Lanruo with an angry face, and hurriedly accompanied him with a smiling face and said: "Hey, little ancestor, you almost fell down just now, you can't make any mistakes, the villain can't afford it!"

Xiao Zhang started from calling Qingyang Lanruo "aunt and grandmother", and has been transformed into today's "little ancestor", for Xiao Zhang, Qingyang Lanruo is really much more difficult to serve than the little ancestor, and he has really poured such a bitter errand for eight lifetimes.

Other teammates have already made fun of Xiao Zhang countless times, and Xiao Zhang Yanran has become the object of daily jokes of the city gate guards, and there is no one.

"Hmph!" Qingyang Lanruo hurriedly walked down to the top of the arrow tower after throwing Xiao Zhang a look.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Zhang exclaimed and followed, his heart was even more gloomy, I don't know what this little girl wants, and her weak heart is becoming more and more unbearable.

Xiao Zhang touched his pocket, the heavy silver coin made Xiao Zhang feel a little relieved, this money is Xiao Zhang's plan to ask the captain to be "chic" tonight, so that the captain can let himself "get out of the sea of suffering", even if it is arranged to be a partner, Xiao Zhang doesn't want to be Qingyang Lanruo's guard anymore.

Following Qingyang Lanruo trotting all the way to the city gate, Xiao Zhang stood in place and stared at Qingyang Lanruo puzzled, not knowing what was going on with this girl standing here.

However, Qingyang Lanruo finally came down from the city tower and the arrow tower, which was a great blessing for Xiao Zhang, looking at the innocent Qingyang Lanruo, Xiao Zhang's opinion of Qingyang Lanruo gradually changed.

"It's just a child, I'm so serious!" Xiao Zhang muttered to comfort his heart, which had been "hurt" countless times.

"Brother Li! Brother Li!" Qingyang Lanruo shouted happily at the empty space in the distance, making Xiao Zhang confused, and he couldn't see anything from a distance.
