Chapter 30: Elves

Feldenburg.

Although the gods promise that the world has four distinct seasons, there will always be a spring when everything will be revived in the winter after the extinction. But not everything is likable.

The Great Plague.

Tiny communities of life can cause a person to catch a cold or something, but it's not a good thing. If the poor patient is not careful, thinking that it is a minor problem and does not take precautions, it is inevitable that a high fever will develop a few days later, and he will lie unconscious in bed. He had to wait for the Almighty Holy Spirit or some other god or something to save him from the world.

At least, for the later plagues, simple antiseptics are hardly effective.

Because potions don't listen to the prayers of believers, they only help the people who are within their duty—how much they pay, how many lives they get.

The anti-sickness is one of the simplest potions, but it is still a luxury compared to the wages of ordinary craftsmen.

The price of potions in various places depends on where they come from, but even in Yuanfan City, where the Eliminator is the cheapest, it will cost three tasu.

In the final analysis, whether a person can live or not depends on his family assets.

"Here we are. ”

As the ship approached the dock, the mage and his party stood on the deck, and at a very low speed, they could see the light blue ocean lapping against the cascading waves, staining the stone embankment.

"Look, Mom, soldier!"

Not far away, the little boy leaned into his mother's arms and pointed to the strange shouts of the soldiers standing on the harbor road.

"The pandemic. ”

Lan Meng muttered: "Only in but not out." ”

"What should we do?" she whispered to Alexei, "Are we going to wait until the plague is over?"

"No, I already had it. ”

Alexei walked down the stairs of the boat on the shore, and he looked back, all of them were mage apprentices from the kingdom of Onko.

These apprentices were not very old, and occasionally they were apprentices like the mentor who had previously held the child, and they were all apprentices borrowed from Angko through a letter from the Empire, and they had come here to make potions to stop the spread of the plague.

The port of Feldenburg, which usually does not carry much ship, is now plagued by the plague, and it is even more depressed.

In the wide square, there was hardly anyone to be seen except for heavily armed soldiers.

"Check. ”

When Alexei reached the road, he was greeted by Imperial soldiers dressed in black dome armor with a golden double-headed eagle painted on their chests. Wearing heavy helmets and faceless soldiers, they all held a three-meter-high halberd with a sharp blade and a cold glow on the pointed spear head. They were each armed with a short knife at their waists, and the head officer was not much different from the equipment of his soldiers, except for the extra wings on either side of the helmet with visor armor. With a roster in one hand and a quill in the other, he shouted to Alexei a few meters away, and spoke in an urn voice: "Name." ”

"I've come to see Ms. Frankieca, here's my letter of introduction. Alexei handed the letter to the soldier, and the officer took the envelope from under him, opened it and looked at it for a moment, then looked at the mage twice on the letter, and then said, "Yes, Your Excellency, we will arrange a meeting with you with Master Frankinika shortly, so please wait here for a moment." ”

He made a gesture of his hand, and one of the standing soldiers staggered to the rear post, and after speaking to them, Alexei heard a whip, and a galloping black horse quickly crossed the square of the harbor, ran up the road for cattle to gallop, and soon disappeared.

"Let's wait. ”

The mage stepped aside, and a soldier brought chairs for the three of them, and thoughtfully offered a bottle of red wine with grape motifs and two empty glasses.

"The chief here must be corrupt. ”

Alexei picked up the bottle and shook it twice in front of Blue Dream's eyes, he carefully examined the label on the bottle, and smiled, "From the Black Thorn Distillery in Winterfell, do you know how much this bottle costs?"

"Are you showing me that you are noble, and even the governor of Feldenburg wants to sell you face? Lan Meng clasped his hands on his shoulders and pouted, refusing to even sit down on the empty chairs, just staring at the apprentices who were lined up in a long line.

"Show off? It turns out that this is a kind of show off in your eyes, and I would say that you are degenerate, or is it just the royal family of the previous dynasty. Smiling, Alexei threw the red wine to Englein, and commanded the latter, "Hide it, it's worth a lot, don't waste the kindness of others, let's wait until the triumphant time to drink it." ”

"I don't want to quarrel with you. Also, don't always use my background to provoke my anger. ”

"But when you're bored, you have to have some fun. ”

"Then don't come to me. ”

Lan Meng angrily moved the chair away from Alexey's side. She sat on the edge of her chair, habitually folding one leg on the other, her little feet in boots cocked like the undulating breasts of her master.

The two were silent for a while, and after about ten minutes, a tall carriage drove from the depths of the harbor, without too many cumbersome decorations, and the patterns of several places that could show their status were covered with a layer of gray cloth.

It seems to be to deliberately keep quiet.

Alexey found no trace of the owner of the carriage at the door and at the corners of the canopy.

The only thing that can highlight the identity of its owner is the cushion in front of the door that can seat four or five people.

Now, on the large cushions, sat a charioteer in a sackcloth shirt and a maid in a black dress, powered by two white horses. The carriage, which was pulled by two female horses, stopped a hundred meters away from Alexey, and a soldier stepped forward to ask, but after a while, the maid sitting on the cushion followed the soldier with the corner of her skirt and took small steps to Alexey.

"Your Excellency. ”

She bent down at Alexei: "I'm the maid who came to pick you up and take you to the Doge's Palace, please come with me." ”

"Let's go. ”

Alexei had barely stood up when he saw another bright-looking girl step out of the carriage of the carriage - a girl he knew.

"Gasri. ”

Dressed in the age of fifteen, Gasley wore waist-length hair in light chestnut color and a hairpin embellished with diamonds. She tied her hair into three strands, the first two were braided into two braids around the top of her head, and passed through her forehead like a maroon headband, and the second long hair fell down to her waist, and was gently tied up with a light blue hairband at the end of the hair, tying a large bow that nurtured youth.

Compared with the girl's complicated hairstyle, she wore a simple long yellow dress, with a light green ribbon fastened around her waist, and two long sleeves that were not very in line with the season only reached her elbows, revealing a pair of delicate wrists as delicate as water and as clean as snow, and her skin could be broken by blowing, blooming with pure colors in the sun.

This is a beauty that is difficult for humans to match, and the elf girl's facial features perfectly inherit her mother's brightness, and she is very delicate and beautiful.

Yes, Gasri is an inhuman race who was born in the Elven capital of the western part of the kingdom, Hesa Milind.

Like most of her kind, she had long, pointed ears that pierced the ends of her hair, and under the ears the girl wore no ornaments other than two bracelets woven of flowers and grass stalks on her wrists. But even such a simple dress still did not hinder her amazing charm from showing her own racial talent, and many of the first-time mage apprentices immediately looked straight at all, and they pushed and shoved, wanting to further appreciate the beauty of this almost another dimension, which caused the instructors in the queue to scold again and again, and finally stabilized the restless crowd a little.

"Uncle Alexey. ”

The elven girl walked up to Alexey, respectfully took the palm of the hand that the latter handed her, and kissed his knuckles.

"I haven't seen you for five years, and you're still as cute as ever. ”

"Thank you uncle for the compliment. Scarlett did enough to meet with the etiquette of meeting without humility or arrogance, with a just right smile on her palm-sized little face, and then she greeted Lan Meng and Engelin one by one, which made the cold-faced female mage have a serious expression.

"My mother has been waiting for you for a long time, so please come with me. ”

The mage bowed slightly, and Englene and the maid coachman were one, and the rest of the people entered the carriage. Outside the car, the experienced coachman waved his whip, and with the slow gallop of the two white horses, the group headed for the Doge's palace in Feldenburg.
