Chapter 3: Rieseth
Dill jumped from the rooftops and quickly left the center of the town. In the secluded realm near the city wall, I finally saw a young man leading two horses. The boy was about fourteen or fifteen years old, with short, chestnut hair and pale blue eyes looking around, and he was happily greeted by the young man when he saw him.
"Hey, Achille, the fireworks are well set up today!" Dill jumped straight from the top of the third floor, and when he was about to land, he gently pressed on the wall next to him, pushing himself diagonally and shifting the weight of the landing.
"Oh, Boss, have you had enough to eat today?" the boy, who was known as Achille, handed the young man the reins of the big horse with Cow Spot.
"Okay...... After eating a little full, I ran a little and was a little hungry again. The young man turned on his horse and walked out of the city as he spoke, and the boy mounted his brown pony and followed closely.
As soon as I turned from the side road to the main road, there were more people. Although the gate was open, there were many people entering and leaving, and now a wooden fence was placed at the gate to divide the passage into two, one entering and the other exiting. The two of them could only follow the large army and line up slowly.
"What about Luna?" the young man asked about the little girl's whereabouts, and Achille smiled and said, "She flew back from the sky, and must have gone back before us." Luna has been clinging to you every day lately, and I think she's going to forget about my own brother. ”
"Haha, then are you going to get better quickly, how are you practicing your fireball technique?" Dill casually asked Achille about his learning progress, this young man followed himself to learn fighting skills, followed the circus archmage to learn magic, and should have a good development in the future.
"Speaking of which, I was finally able to launch five fireballs at a time this morning, and when I set off the fireworks just now, I used magic to light two of them!" said Achille, showing off triumphantly.
"Yes, yes, you have to work hard, and I hope you can be my right-hand man in the future." Dill had already reached the gate and was about to pass through, when suddenly there was a noise behind him. The two men turned around and saw that it was a carriage decorated with Miss Winny's embossed badge approaching the city gate.
The bells on the carriage jingled, and the people on the left and right got out of the way. As soon as the soldiers saw the car, they drove Dill and Achille to the side of the road, and then stood respectfully and greeted the carriage as it passed.
Unexpectedly, the carriage drove to the gate of the city but suddenly stopped, and a head sticked out of the carriage, which turned out to be the mayor Druf.
"Diel, I was just going to your circus, show me the way. And you forgot to take your prize. The honest-looking and red-skinned mayor is also very easy-going, and he doesn't take any of these wandering artists into a fight, which makes Dill and Achille feel a little good.
"Okay, let me show you the way. The young man with the blindfold pulled the reins of his horse, urged the horse, and ran to the front to lead the way, and the carriage followed suit. Achille patted his pony and followed unhurriedly. Some of the people around had just come from watching the game in the central square, and they all noticed the existence of the invincible stomach king at this moment, and many people followed with the mentality of watching the excitement.
Canlar is located on a fertile plain, surrounded by small rivers and low hills that shelter from the wind and sand, creating a unique environment for growing potatoes that are said to be the best in all of Turanda.
Because of its sweet, creamy, creamy texture, Kanlar potatoes are known as the nobility of potatoes. Every year, many caravans come all the way to buy potatoes here, and in a prosperous city like White Moody, the top potatoes of Canlar can be sold for twenty or even thirty times the price of ordinary potatoes.
The outside of the town is almost all farmland, and outside the city gate to the south there is a large wood, and a small river called the Lance River runs through the woods, which is also the widest river in the area. Outside the woods, there is a large open space with green grass and a place where citizens often hold festivals.
Because of the weekend celebrations, many admirers flocked to the city, and some chose to camp outside the city, and some large and small tents have already been stationed in this open space. So when a large convoy of horses and wagons stopped here, no one realized it was a circus.
But when the circus people began to set up huge tents and hang flags flying high, everyone understood and happily looked forward to the evening's performances.
There were about thirty people in this circus, including muscular men, quirky gnomes, tattooed barbarians of unknown tribes, and amiable-looking aunts. At the moment, everyone is busy inside and out, and a plump tall red-haired beauty is directing everyone to set up the performance venue.
The young man who led the way began to greet from afar: "Hey, Commander! The red-haired beauty stopped what she was doing and turned her head to look at the source of the voice. The face of the regiment commander was as depicted on the poster, flamboyant and bright, with wheat-colored skin shining with a healthy glow, bright dark blue eyes, plump red lips delicate, and his whole body was wrapped in a loose and colorful robe.
The mayor's carriage came to a steady stop in front of the leader, and by this moment Dill had dismounted, handed the horses to Achille, and took them aside to graze. He walked up to Zoya, bowed his head and whispered a few words, Zoya nodded, and waved him to go to the tent first.
The young man wearing the blindfold did not stop at all, and walked directly into the tent that was being built, and while smiling and greeting the busy others, he hurried through the tent and into the woods. About sixty feet deep into the woods, a lone gray carriage appeared behind the dense bushes.
Although the carriage was large, it had a simple and simple appearance, and only a few abstract elements of the gray shed were colored, but most of them had faded after being exposed to the wind and sun. It seems that the owner of the carriage must have been a magician.
A small clearing had been made next to the carriage, there was a fire, but it was extinguished at the moment, and two hammocks tethered to a large tree not far away.
Dill went straight to the carriage, jumped on it, rummaged through the carriage for a while, took out a leather bag, poured out a few transparent beads with a faint color, and then carefully pulled out an iron box from his bosom.
As soon as he opened the iron box, a white shadow jumped out, pounced on the small beads, and devoured them. It was a small pure white lizard, only the thickness of a finger, about three inches long, and a lot of slender protrusions on its head, a bit like horns. It was covered in shiny scales the size of a pinpoint, and it looked like it was glowing slightly.
The little lizard's watery eyes are hazel-green on the right and azure blue on the left, and they look very special. At this moment, it finished eating the beads and let out a grunting sound in dissatisfaction, and when it opened its mouth, it spewed out a ball of fire, almost spraying on the young man's face.
"You naughty devil who never gets enough to eat!" the young man stepped back, avoiding the fireball, but took off his blindfold to check if there was anything wrong. After taking off the blindfold, he found that the young man's eyes were actually different colors like the lizard, except that the young man's left eye was hazel green and his right eye was blue, which was the opposite of the lizard.
Dill looked at the blindfold to make sure it wasn't damaged, and he didn't continue to wear it, but put it in his arms. Then he fumbled around in the carriage for a while, and pulled out a roll of parchment. He took the scroll to the side of the hammock, jumped up and sat down gently, and then unfolded the parchment on his lap, which turned out to be a map of the continent of Gdenlandy.
The little lizard climbed up his shoulder along his arm, watching his movements condescendingly, patting the young man's shoulder with his tail from time to time.
"Riseth~ How are you feeling today? We can't go around like this anymore, I can't afford to support you. Tell me, where are the ancient ruins you want to upgrade?" the young man asked, turning his head and staring at the little lizard on his shoulder, as if that thing could really understand people.
Unfortunately, Reses didn't buy it at all, squinted his eyes, let out a disdainful grunt, and then opened his mouth wide to signal that he still wanted to eat.
The young man took out his wallet with a headache, and all the contents were poured out, and there were only two silver coins and a handful of copper coins. He counted, sighed, put his hand in front of the little lizard and said, "Look, that's all there is left, you have just eaten up the pure magic crystals collected in the previous city, but this city is very prosperous, Fayle should be able to collect a lot of delicious food, why don't you eat something else first?"
The little lizard jumped into his hand, snorted a few times in disdain, and pulled the copper coin everywhere with its claws, Zuihou reluctantly picked up the silver coin, chewed and swallowed it. Just as he was about to eat the second one, the lizard suddenly stopped and turned its head to look to the side.
"You just put it out there! and you're not afraid of being seen. Zoya's melodious voice came over the bushes, and in a moment the slender figure came out from behind the bushes, and she shook a small fan made of feathers gracefully, but stopped at a distance of about ten feet from the young man and did not come closer.
"It's okay to see it~ They can't recognize that this is a newly hatched young dragon. Dill fell into the hammock, stretched out, and yawned indifferently.
