Chapter 10: The First of Seven Days (6)

Recently, I was watching "The Magic Apprentice", and the disguise was amazing.

****************

The bright moon walked slowly along the invisible trail of the sky, and three people on the ground were speeding through portals brighter than the moon. Belch...... It can't be said to be fast, because one of them always has to drag the big army back.

"Wait, will you wait a minute?" I leaned against the wall with one hand, my leg and knee with the other, and bent over a clean flower bed, the after-effects of the portal allergy causing me to vomit intensely. If it hadn't been for the little potatoes who gave me one or two small rejuvenation techniques in a timely manner along the way, I'm afraid I would have eaten all three meals in vain today's breakfast, lunch and dinner.

"Turtledove hold on a little longer, and when you see the wise Snow, you will have plenty of time to rest. This difficulty should be easy for us turtledoves to overcome. Schilling didn't know if he was cheering me on or being sarcastic about me, but what he said was so high-sounding that I couldn't find the words to refute him. I gave him a blank look, and then put my hand on the little potato's shoulder.

"Well, there are a few more portals. I'll hold on. I sighed. Little Potato looked at Schilling and then at me, smiled, and didn't speak.

Schilling estimated: "There are probably four or five more." ”

Four or five, it should be able to survive. With another long sigh, I followed Schilling towards the damn portal again.

The Principality of Arathi is a small monarchy with a population of about five million, and the land is barren and unsuitable for the growth of various crops. Fortunately, there are many ore veins here, and the principality relies on all kinds of ore excavated to exchange for food and other goods. However, due to the poor excavation technology, the production was not high, and the items exchanged for were always limited, so the material abundance of the whole principality was not very rich. Material poverty has led to the fact that the standard of living of the population of the country is relatively low in the state of the principality of mankind. In the final analysis, the Principality of Arathi is a relatively poor and backward country. And the country's minerals are a hot thing, and all of this country has been invaded by the surrounding countries since its establishment until now, and the land is decreasing every year. This situation has only changed slightly in recent years.

For unknown reasons, this humble principality gained the favor of the druids outside of the country and formed alliances. Possessing powerful natural spells and mystical transformation skills, the druids are a formidable force, but they have not been noticed due to their tranquil personality. However, this soldier means that it can be ignored. Since the establishment of a solid alliance with the Druids, the surrounding countries have largely discouraged the idea of the Duchy of Arathi.

Every year, a large number of druids come to the Principality of Arathi to provide a lot of help to the Principality of Arathi in the form of personal calendars. When Little Potato first entered the game, he chose the druid as his profession, and of course he inevitably had the same personal experience. The healing effect of magical natural spells is significant. What is surprising is that Little Potato once worked as a private healer for the son of the Grand Duke of the country, and successfully relieved a poisoning that almost killed the child. As a result, small potatoes enjoy great prestige and treatment in the country.

With this relationship and identity, we easily completed the levels and found the country's national teacher, the wise North. North was a sullen fellow, and before I could say a few words to him, I was sure of it. However, I don't care at all, politics is generally this virtue, and if you are not careful, you may get yourself into a quagmire and never recover, and I kindly regard North's words and deeds as a sign of prudence. Anyway, he's a passing point in a series of missions at best, and after completing his mission, according to common sense, we won't get along with each other for a long time.

However, when I pulled out the sandalwood box, North seemed to be a different person in an instant.

"Where did you get this thing?" The Wise North's originally gray eyes lit up like torches in the night, and the gray beard on his lips trembled violently, excited or afraid.

"The Temple of Hama." I briefly gave North a brief account of the acquisition of the sandalwood box. The latter listened intently, without saying a word. It wasn't until I finished speaking with a dry mouth that he answered with a serious expression: "It looks like these damn guys are hatching an unprecedented conspiracy. ”

He paused for a moment, then said, "Let's see what amazing information is contained in this mysterious box." Everyone, please come with me. ”

After a twisting path and a dizzying spiral staircase, we came to a small secret room. I'd say unceremoniously that it's almost no different from a homeless man's makeshift dwelling, it's as messy as a kennel, and the air is filled with a pungent smell of disinfectant. I felt like I wanted to vomit again.

"I'm sorry, but there are basically no people here, and I don't come much myself, so I don't clean it much." North's expression was a little embarrassed, after all, his identity was a national teacher, and the room we were in front of us did not reflect his identity in the slightest.

"Wise man, your unruly style is very admirable." Schilling was quite purposeful in his ass, and I doubt his residence was like that.

"Let's take a look at the secrets in the box as soon as possible." I'm not going to waste time on this kind of thing, and I'm just going to rush it.

"We don't have much time." Little Potato seemed to see that North was a little displeased, and hurriedly added.

Facing the druid, the pillar of his country, North was not easy to attack, so he obediently sorted out a table, simply drew a magic circle on it, and then placed the sandalwood box in the center of the magic circle, and recited the incantation softly. Suddenly, a pure white flame burst out of the magic array, and a ball wrapped the sandalwood box, and the smell was unpleasant, like the mellow fertilizer in the field. Except for North, who was casting spells, the other three people pinched their noses in unison.

The box was scorched by flames, and it stands to reason that a wooden box should have turned yellow, charred, and blackened by the flames, and then turned into a pile of ash, but the box was not affected in any way as if its surface was wrapped in some fireproof material. We cast our searching gaze on North, who seemed to feel the pressure, and the sound of the incantation became louder invisibly, and the flames in the magic circle became more dazzling and dazzling as if they were sensitive.

Suddenly, a black mist emanated from the inside of the box, and I vaguely saw some sparks flashing inside, instinctively telling me that something bad was about to happen. As if to confirm what I said, those sparks had a tendency to flood in less than half a second, and at the same time I heard a shout from the wise North: "Lie down, the magic array is out of control!" ”

Before he could finish his sentence, my whole body was already in close contact with Mother Earth. I already felt the precursor to this fire, and then it was an instinctive reaction. Noth the Wise was a little slower than I was, and he quickly chanted a vague incantation, casting a translucent magic shield around his body. Little Potato was even more desperate, and I saw her turn into a leopard and jump out of the window. Well, this is the fourth floor. Only Schilling's big stupid hat doesn't seem to have reacted yet. I tugged on his leg and motioned for him to hurry up and do some emergency measures, but it was too late. I immediately heard a loud "boom", followed by a shaking of the mountains.

What followed was a chilling silence. The smell of sulfur filled the room, choking people with coughs. After a while, the door of the secret room opened again, and it was a small potato that entered. She poked her head out and cautiously asked, "Is there anyone?" You're all right. ”

"Ahem, ahem. Hell yes. Noth the Wise suppressed a strong cough and began to curse his mother.

I got up from the ground, checked my body and looked like I was not missing arms or legs, and then I happily replied, "It's okay, it's okay, haha." Safe and sound. ”

Next to me is the standing paladin, Schilling. I turned my head to see what he looked like, and I couldn't help but burst into a burst of hysterical laughter. Have you ever seen a grizzled paladin? Wow-haha, Schilling is like a coal digger now. His face was black, his hair was disheveled, and his armor was covered with a thick layer of black ash.

"Schilling, you ......" I bent my waist with a smile, and I was really an unyielding paladin. The explosion just now took all the orders, and he could easily avoid the crisis by bending down and lowering his head.

Schilling asked in a low voice with a dark face, "May I ask the wise man, where can I wash my face here?" ”

"Turn left when you go out, someone will take you there." North's distorted face made it clear that he was doing the same thing as I was doing now, but he was more reserved, and I just let it go. I laughed, and he endured it, and it was unstoppable joy anyway.

Little Potato chuckled and pointed the way for Schilling, who walked out of the room with a black face. Then, I walked into the room by myself. Half a second of silence was followed by a burst of maniacal laughter, and the lung capacity of the three men almost didn't tear off the ceiling.

"Alright, alright. It's been a long time since I've been this happy, hehe. North finally stopped laughing, turned his head and turned back to the papaya face, he pointed to the sandalwood box that was still intact in the ruins, "This thing is protected by a powerful forbidden spell, and I can't open it with my power." I think only my teachers can solve it. Why don't you do this, I'll write a letter, and you can go to my teacher to solve it. ”

"Your teacher is ......" North's background is not small, and the status of being his master is even more noble. At least, that's what I guessed.

"Archmage Junios." When North said the name, both his expression and voice showed great respect and admiration.

"My gut tells me there's a shocking conspiracy hidden under this box." North quickly finished writing the letter and slipped it into my hand, just as Schilling had washed his face and re-entered the room. North sprinkled a little gold dust on the ground, and a golden portal appeared. He pointed to the portal, "This portal will take you to the place where my teacher lives, the Archmage Tower. I'm sorry I couldn't help much, but now I'm left with this little bit of work. I wish you all a smooth journey. ”

Oh my God, it's a portal again, and I feel like the world is spinning. Schilling and Little Potato smiled knowingly.

"My teacher, Archmage Junios, is not very easy to get along with, even with my letter of introduction, I hope you will pay more attention." North reminded us earnestly before sending us through the portal.

It's not easy to get along with Schilling, isn't it, and he and I are still together? After listening to it, I didn't think so, it's a big deal to stuff it into a sack of gold coins, and people block and kill people and Buddhas. Of course, this is more than money to Schilling. I watched Schilling just step into the back of the portal, and let out an eerie laugh.

This task is really troublesome, can't you just do it and let me go directly to the archmage? I also deliberately went to the middle to wander around for a while. However, if there is no such link in the middle, the scene of Schilling making a fool of himself really can't be seen. Thinking about Schilling's appearance just now, I burst into hysterical laughter again.

Lord God, give me more laughing on this fateful journey. Wow-ha-ha.
