Chapter 7: The Circus (Part II)
Lu Bin nodded slightly, "Dear Lord Oria, I have to worry about you, just now I have accepted the warm hospitality of the mayor of the town and settled in a nearby tavern. www.biquge.info If there is nothing else to do, I will visit His Excellency the Lord of this place tomorrow. β
"Of course, I have to say thank you for your reasonable advice. I'm also a little tired after a long time in the wilderness, maybe it's a good choice to stop here, wash off the dust on my body, and then find a position with a good salary, and have enough accumulation to go on a new adventure. β
The bard's face was wonderful, and he did not expect that his "gibberish" really moved Lord Reze, perhaps he was telling the truth. The long wanderings in the wilderness were indeed exhausting, but what was the matter with losing most of his spells?
After a short period of contact, Oria noticed that the target person, in addition to having proper reservations about his origins, did not have an evil aura wrapped around his body, and it was estimated that he could be accepted by the "order".
The addition of a new member to the spellcaster camp in Villaniel City was obviously a cause for joy, and the Bard was ready to wait a few days before deciding whether or not to act as an introducer to Lord Rez and lead him into the loosely structured harpist.
Oria was thinking about his own affairs, and Lu Bin was also pondering the information that the other party had revealed intentionally or unintentionally just now. The lord of the town, Baron Freud, the nobleman's castle, and the mage enshrined by the family are enough to deconstruct the general situation of the social class, and the interdependent spellcaster system with the ruler may be an important goal of this trip.
Both sides have a lot on their minds, and the conversation shifts to an inconsequential tour, and when both of them have nothing to say, the first meeting between the wandering mage and the bard ends in a tacit understanding between the two parties.
The two guards who followed Lu Bin "escorted" him back to the tavern in the town to rest, they had been exposed, and the knock on the door just now was a slap in the face, perhaps because of the lack of relevant experience.
After watching the other party go away, Oriya pursed his lips and whistled, called to the tame letter eagle, copied his harvest on a two-finger-wide slip of paper, rolled it into a small cylinder and stuffed it into the "mailbox" tied to the eagle's talon, and told it to fly back to Villanier and give it to Ethan Dimirit, the head of the mercenary guild, who was also one of the harpist's contacts there.
Back to the room on the second floor of the tavern, closed the door, put down the deadbolt, hung up the latch, untied the coat rack that the robe placed at the door, Lu Bin walked to the window, looked at the moon in the night sky, and waited until his mood calmed down a little, and then took out the spell book again.
A new card has been generated, with a pattern of an open mouth on the side of a visibly visible ear, unpretentiously unsurprising, with a bright crimson undertone. Obviously, the spell effect that acts on oneself is relatively complete.
Proficient in language, a ring of spells, not only can understand what the other party says, but also can read unfamiliar words, understand the literal meaning, spend a little mana to cast, last twenty-four hours, use five times. (Cannot be engraved into runes)
"Hmm! I can't keep the spell effect constant, I'm unlucky. In the long run, you'll have to learn an additional foreign language, or learn all the spells you know the language. Tomorrow...... Tomorrow I will visit the mages who are staying in the castle and get in touch with the nobles here a little by the way. β
After making up his mind, Lu Bin returned to bed, and it didn't take long for him to let out a slight snoring sound. At the same time, in the room next to the wandering mage, the two guards did not dare to relax, and according to the arrangement made in advance, the two of them took turns to be on duty for the night.
The performance in the square in the center of the town gradually came to an end in laughter, many people did not disperse unsatisfied, chatting with each other about the wonderful program just now, the boiling popularity slowly cooled down under the cold night breeze, tomorrow's life will continue, there is not much nightlife in the town, even the taverns are closed early, even the young people who are in high spirits have to return to their respective homes to rest.
The stage of the circus was not dismantled, and the four-wheeled flatbed carriage removed the thick felt cloth, cleaned up the debris, and cleaned up a little, so that it could serve as a bed for the members.
In order to save money on a stay, all the minstrels, including Oria the Bard, rested in the central square of the town.
Tonight's performance was quite successful, not only attracted most of the townspeople to watch, but also received unanimous praise, and I believe that tomorrow's performance in the next village and town will definitely rely on the reputation and increase the price a little.
The crescent moon climbed to the top of the night sky, and then slowly slid westward, and the sky was still full of stars, but there was a faint shadow in the depths of the sea of stars, and its trajectory was irregular, and even the master astrologer did not notice any movement of the stars.
The Buried Bones devoured and digested the coyote's soul, and its desperate hunger was slightly relieved, and it most hoped to obtain the four elements and positive and negative energy that formed the foundation of the world, so that it could continue to grow itself and continue to feed back to the creator Lu Bin.
The half-plane of the dual attributes of death and darkness is only one acre in area, and due to height restrictions, there are only two types of terrain, flat land and hills, but its potential is unfathomable, and if it can be fully grown, it will definitely not be inferior to the main material plane that it attaches to.
According to the law of formlessness, the Buried Bones began to migrate to the shadow and shadow world of the Overworld, and the process of migration was quite short, and it would last for a few yearsβa really short time for a plane whose length of time was thousands or even tens of thousands of years.
The equilibrium that has been maintained for a long time will fluctuate due to the multitude of variables that favor the buried bones of darkness and death, but no one has yet noticed its existence, and even the gods on high have not noticed a turbulent current of fate entering.
The next day, the glimmer of the morning light sprinkled on Lu Bin's face through the window, he slowly opened his eyes, found that he was not in the game cabin, as if he finally understood that he was not dreaming after being sure, sighed and sat up slowly, I don't know why he was in a daze for a while, and then rubbed his face vigorously, left the warm bed energetically, began to tidy up his bags, and deliberately made a little noise.
The members of the guard in the next room immediately knew that the wandering mage was awake, and the captain's lieutenant told his companion Hawke to go downstairs, inform the tavern to prepare breakfast, and then go to the town to know Captain Claude.
Lu Bin rubbed in the room for a while, and heard movement downstairs, so he pushed open the door and walked down the stairs slowly, and someone soon followed behind him.
At the corner of the stairs, the wandering mage took the opportunity to glance back, smiled and bowed his forehead, and then continued to walk down the stairs as usual, knowing that his performance just now had released enough kindness.
A person who follows the rules will be welcomed everywhere, and with the identity of a spellcaster, he already has enough weight to make his voice heard.
Freshly baked bread, boiled fresh milk, and two fried poached eggs, Lu Bin chewed his breakfast slowly, and got up and left the tavern unhurriedly.
The member of the guard in charge of protection took out his wallet to pay the bill, and when he stepped out of the gate, he saw His Excellency the Mage waiting nearby, and smiled lightly, as if remembering this favor, the clouds on his forehead instantly dissipated, and his mood was like a sunny day after rain.
Thinking that the two sides had a little friendship, the deputy captain of the guard walked a few steps to catch up, fortunately, he saw him and the bard talking normally last night, and carefully lowered his voice and asked, "Your Excellency the Honorable Mage, where are you going?"
Lu Bin glanced at him sideways: "According to the rules, follow the rules to visit the local lord." β
