Chapter 22: The Magic Spire

The Wizarding Guild of Carouston, in Giroud's room.

"Master Giroud, this is a statement from the three of us. The gold coins of the reparation, in the side hall downstairs, Hogo was tapping the number. With that, Sid handed over three parchment scrolls and placed them on Giroud's desk, with Diribair and Bing standing calmly behind him.

Giroud motioned for the three of them to sit down, picked up a scroll from the table, opened it and looked at it a few times, slowly put it aside, and then looked at the other two scrolls one after another, and after confirming that they were correct, he put the scroll aside.

Giroud, who had put the scroll away, did not speak, and looked at the three of them with mixed feelings.

"Master Giroud, thank you for taking care of the few of us during the years in the Magic Guild, we are all persona non grata, and we have been assigned to Carouston for various reasons. Sid sighed.

But fortunately, he was sent to Carouston, so he had a few quiet years. Sid continued.

Giroud listened to Sid's words, and in a trance recalled many of his ignorant and stupid past when he was young, if he hadn't been assigned to Carroston, but if it wasn't for coming to Caroston, he wouldn't have had so many years of quiet time to study magic, let alone be promoted to intermediate mage.

This time, the three of them collectively applied to leave the Magic Guild, which attracted a lot of attention at the top of the Magic Guild, and several high-level magicians personally inquired about this matter, and Giroud was also questioned a lot.

When Giroud reported on the rescue of Egger and the departure of the three mages, he concealed a lot of things, such as Li Xuan's good temper and the fact that he accepted Vivien as a student, two very important information, only a detailed report on Li Xuan's rescue process for Knight Egger in the temple.

"The Imperial Guild of Magic has signed the three of you've signed the petition for the three of you to leave the Guild of Magic, but you will need to remain in Carroston until the new mage arrives and you are handed over, and then you will be completely free. Giroud said to the three with a smile.

Several people nodded when they heard this, they have no plans to leave Carouston at present, after becoming a free mage, they still have a lot of things to arrange, such as finding a few servants, and after leaving the Magic Guild, they need to find a new residence.

"When will the new magician arrive?" Binger asked.

"Three weeks later. Giroud replied.

Binger nodded, a small smile on his face.

"Now, what are you going to do?" Giroud looked at the three of them.

"If Master Li Xuan really stays in Carroston, we want to learn from him. Sid smiled.

"Master Li Xuan should need some help, we heard that he only has a mercenary named Boris by his side. Diribair paused after speaking, and then continued: "Boris used to be a member of the Kashan mercenary group, and it is said that he was treated by Master Li Xuan, and then he has been following Master Li Xuan, and we have determined from many people that Master Li Xuan is indeed a magician who is very easy to get along with. ”

"Remember Baron Ferrin?" asked Giroud.

"Oh, Baron Ferrin, he has moved to the Imperial Capital, and when I returned to the Imperial Capital last year to report on my duties, I was invited to his new estate, and his wife, Elena, is a beautiful and intelligent lady. But why do you ask about him?" Giroud asked curiously.

"Master Li Xuan has bought the manor of Baron Ferling in the east of Carroston. Diriber said.

"Bought Ferrin's manor?" Giroud was stunned for a moment, not reacting, a high-level magician, bought a small manor in Carouston City?

Di Libeier nodded, and said with a smile on his face: "Yes, we will wait for Master Li Xuan to move into that manor before we go to visit, and ask him to accept the three of us." ”

Giroud nodded, he really couldn't figure out what Li Xuan bought the manor for, there were not many high-level mages in the Arissanret Empire, and they were basically all in the imperial capital or in the capital of the principality, and he had never heard of a high-level mage who went to a small place like Carouston to buy a manor property.

Most of the high-level mages have their own roots, or large families, or giant chambers of commerce, or magic guilds, or even royalty. Based on the powerful resource side, high-level mages will build their own magic spires.

The magic spire in the state of war, once activated, not only has a powerful magic shield, but also an incomparably terrifying magic attack power, the more powerful the high-level mage, the more terrifying the magic spire it builds. But all of this is based on the continuous investment of high-level mages in their magic spires, so the vast majority of high-level mages spend most of their time refining magic spires in non-war times.

In the territory of the Arissanite Empire, there are more than 100 magical spires, and most of these spires are located in the imperial capital and the capitals of major principalities, which are used to protect the city.

Giroud has seen many magic spires because of his status as an intermediate magician, and he heard that there are 12 magic spires around the city in the entire imperial capital, and each of the magic spires around the city in the imperial capital has six sub-towers surrounding the main tower, covering a huge area and extremely powerful defense.

If every magic spire meant a powerful high-level magician, then the imperial capital alone had at least 12 powerful high-level magicians, and this was only on the surface.

The Junn Empire, to the south of the Aresanrite Empire, possesses an equally powerful magical spire. It is precisely because the two empires have the same level of powerful and sophisticated defense forces that they have always coexisted peacefully. Whichever side wants to attack the other, they must concentrate on destroying the other's magic spires, and the cost is too great for either side to afford.

The carriage soon stopped at the entrance of the temple, and Orin, Li Xuan, and Vivien all got out of the carriage and walked towards the temple, Olin walked in front and chatted about Egger's injury.

Because of inheriting the knowledge of the two worlds, Li Xuan knew that Egger should not be able to get up now, the original injury was too large and caused excessive blood loss, even if the body and organs were repaired, they were limited by the slowness of the hematopoietic function in the body, and now when the blood reserve of the newborn was not enough, it was difficult to get out of bed and walk.

Li Xuan followed Olin into the interior of the temple, bypassed the main hall, and walked all the way from the corridor on the side of the main hall towards the north area, there are many wooden houses in the north area, the houses look rough and sturdy, there are many clothes not far from the house for concentrated drying, dark brown clothes, rows of drying under the sun, there is a strange beauty.

Li Xuan looked at the environment in the temple as he walked, ignoring Vivian's chatter, and answered two sentences of Orin's introduction from time to time.

Walking to a row of wooden houses in the northernmost area, Olin said to Li Xuan, "This is it, Your Excellency Li Xuan." ”

Li Xuan nodded, and a sturdy man with a sword at the door of the wooden house nodded to Orin, walked to the front of the wooden house, and opened the door.

Olin bent down slightly and made a gesture to Li Xuan to invite him in, and led Li Xuan in front of him sideways, and Vivian obediently followed behind the two.

The wooden house was not large, and after entering the wooden house, several people saw Knight Egger lying on the bed.

The sturdy man walked to the head of the bed, picked up Egger, and asked him to stick it to the wall, and then fixed it with a wide cloth strap, and when he was done, he nodded to Egg, and walked out of the cabin, standing guard not far from the door.

"Viscount Orin, Vivien. Egg looked at Orin weakly.

"Knight Egger, this is His Excellency Li Xuan. Orin introduced to Iger.

"Yes, I remember, Master Li Xuan, thank you for saving me. Egger looked at Egger and Li Xuan and said.

Li Xuan nodded to Egg, he had some respect for Knight Egger, although he was not familiar with it, but he had heard a lot of his deeds from Vivian and Boris and others during this time.

"How's your body recovering?" asked him.

"The wound is recovering very well, but I have been dizzy and sleepy, and I don't have much strength in my body, and now I can only move my arm, and it is very laborious. Egg replied with a wry smile, and slowly raised his hand to signal.

"Eating more meat and animal liver in moderation will have a great effect on your recovery. Li Xuan thought about it and said to him.

"Animal liver?" Iger asked. Orin and Vivien were also surprised.

Li Xuan nodded and said, "For example, pork liver and beef liver, put less salt, too much salt is not conducive to recovery from injury." ”

"Thank you, Master Li Xuan, I took note of it. Iger nodded in acknowledgement.

"Any clues? Orin asked.

Iger shook his head and said, "There are few clues now, and there are not many people who can know our itinerary, and they are all people from within the cavalry regiment. From the determination of the itinerary to the departure, there are only 2 days, and they are all notified by the cavalry, and they are not kept secret, and everyone knows their own patrol tasks and those of others. This has been the case for the past few years. ”

"In that case, it shouldn't be someone from the cavalry regiment who leaked the news. Orin spoke slowly.
