276. News from Ironstone City

Because Veroni is more beautiful and has big breasts, the two male magicians unknowingly sandwiched her in the middle and began to flatter, Wu Daoan, a suspicious figure wearing a shadow robe, was pushed aside, and had to chat casually with the female magician who was ruthlessly snubbed by her companions because of her flat appearance and mediocre breasts.

Tiffany was also very wary of Wu Daoan at first, after all, a good person would cover his face for no reason and not let people see it. But later, when she found out that Wu Daoan didn't seem to be a bad person, she also opened the conversation and told about their hard life after entering southern Xinjiang, mainly the poor sanitary conditions. Wu Daoan listened patiently and asked about some topics he was interested in: "I heard that there are very few people with magical qualifications, is this really the case?"

>> Of course!" Tiffany suddenly looked proud: "According to the latest statistics of the Magic Association the year before last, on average, only one person per thousand people has magical qualifications, and magical qualifications are the prerequisite for cultivating magic, and people without qualifications have no hope of touching the door of magic in their lives." When I was a child, I was detected to have a very pure water root vein, and since then I have embarked on the path of magic, and my mentor said that I can be promoted to an intermediate magician within ten years!"

"Awesome! The intermediate magician is already a pillar of the empire, and the future is immeasurable!" Wu Daoan complimented at the right time.

Tiffina was also very happy when she heard this, moved to a closer place to Wu Daoan and sat down, and carefully looked at the shadow robe: "This is a very valuable magic prop, did you buy it in Ironstone City?

>Ah, it's expensive. I'm not really a suspicious person. It's just that he was born with a strange ugly face, and he was afraid of scaring others, so he had to do this. By the way, there seems to be a dragon's roar in the city some time ago, is something big happening?" Wu Daoan made up an excuse, diverted the topic, and then asked what he had always cared about.

Hearing this, Tiffona also had a serious face: "There is a black dragon who turned into a human form and openly killed the eldest son of the Pyrrence family in the city, which caused the wrath of the city lord, and even the sealing circle in the city was used. But he was still escaped by the black dragon. In fact, it is also said that the city lord deliberately let it go. Because the black dragon is a legendary-level high-level demonic beast after all, if you really have to do your best, I am afraid that it will raze the entire Ironstone City to the ground, and the empire can't afford such a big loss. ”

"So why did the black dragon do this? Does it have a deep hatred for the Pyrrence family?" Wu Daoan continued to ask.

Tiffany shook her head: "There doesn't seem to be any grudge. The matter is said to have been provoked by a very, very beautiful woman. And I heard that this woman bought a shadow robe on the same day, and then bribed the guards to flee to southern Xinjiang. The captain of the guard, who had accepted the bribe, was taken to a court-martialed the next day and hanged in public for dereliction of duty. That's certainly what the Pierrens family meant. Several well-known mercenary groups have also accepted bounties and come to southern Xinjiang to find targets. ”

Wu Daoan's heart was cold when he heard it, it seemed that it was not much safe to stay in southern Xinjiang, and his shadow robe was still very conspicuous. But taking it off is even more unreliable. Because his appearance is estimated to have been recorded by those mercenary groups, he has also been recognized.

At this time, Tiffany seemed to finally react, and pointed at him with wide eyes: "Could it be that you are the one who killed El Pierrence?"

Of course, Wu Daoan wanted to deny it: "The person you said escaped from Ironstone City alone, but my side is a brother and sister acting together." Besides, there are so many adventurers wearing shadow robes, how could they happen to let you meet them?"

Tiffany wasn't stupid, how could she be so gullible, but she also knew that asking would not lead to anything, so she changed the subject.

Veroni on the other end was obviously familiar with the two male magicians, and she didn't know whether she was intentional or unintentional, so she began to ask some questions that shouldn't be asked: "What is the mission of your internship this time?"

Brand and his companion Lyncott glanced at each other, hesitated, and finally told the truth: "Do you know the Temple of Prophecy?"

Hearing this keyword, Veroni skillfully suppressed the fluctuations in her heart and asked, "I seem to have heard of it, what is that place?"

Linkot patiently replied: "It is the temple of the Prophecy School of Magic in the Ancient Era, which disappeared with the extinction of the magicians of this faction, but will reappear on the continent every once in a while. Some time ago, there were rumors that the temple appeared in southern Xinjiang, and we are looking for relevant clues this time. And it is said that there is a legendary fountain of life in the temple of prophecy, which can cure all diseases and curses. You should have also heard that the little princess, who has always been regarded by His Majesty as a famous clan in the palm of her hand, was cursed by the legendary demonic beast three years ago, and has been unconscious so far, His Majesty the Emperor has offered a reward of 10 million gold coins and a horse position to buy a cup of spring water from the Fountain of Life, if we can find it, it will be developed. ”

Brand looked disdainful: "Don't dream, where is that kind of place where our little junior magicians can enter? ”

>> Since the Temple of Prophecy is so mysterious, and the southern frontier is so vast, how do you find clues?" Veroni was clearly very concerned about this matter.

Before Linkot could answer, he was interrupted by Brand: "We don't actually have a clue, but the internship of a magician has always been very difficult, how can we become a great magician in the future if we don't overcome this difficulty?"

Veroni's eyes flickered, and she had something else to think about.

After everyone happily tasted the roast suckling pig, it was time to go their separate ways. Veroni tugged at Wu Daoan's sleeve and blinked desperately, obviously wanting to go with these magicians. Wu Daoan suddenly felt that this was not bad, this girl should be much safer to follow a few of their magicians than to follow herself. In the current situation, I should dig a hole and hide, so as not to be bumped into by those professional mercenaries hired by the Pirence family.

With a fixed thought, Wu Daoan said: "I actually have another dangerous task on this trip, and it is best to act alone, but I can't bear my cousin's blind entanglement to take her with me, and now she has seen the dangers of southern Xinjiang, in fact, I want to go back to the city, and I am inconvenient to go with me, so it is better to ask a few." ”

This group of magicians was obviously not interested in Wu Daoan, who looked sneaky, but was very interested in the beautiful and big-breasted Veroni, so they decisively agreed: "Your Excellency, don't worry, we will definitely send the housegirl back safely." ”

After staging another brother and sister farewell with Veroni, Wu Daoan wittily bought a photocopy of the map of southern Xinjiang from the magicians with a gold coin, and then left alone.

This map of southern Xinjiang belongs to the internal reference materials of the Imperial Academy of Magic, and it has detailed marks of known danger areas and barbarian settlements, and even indicates which wild fruits can be eaten and cooking guides.

After learning the lesson of hiding in the tree and being discovered, he decided to find a cave to hide this time, so as not to be bumped into by any mercenary team and avoid the limelight.

There are some high mountains and small hills in the endless forest, and some beasts choose to dig a hole in the side of the mountain as a nest. Wu Daoan came to the safe area marked on the map, and after a long careful search, he found a hidden residence of a bear monster. After ruthlessly driving away the original owner, he brought a pile of water and edible wild fruits to store them, and carefully camouflaged the entrance of the cave with branches and leaves, and wiped his sweat contentedly, preparing to avoid being a caveman for several months.

But the heavens do not fulfill people's wishes. He had just lived a comfortable hibernation for two days, and on this day, the carefully arranged hole was rudely torn open, and someone strode up to him, his voice hoarse with a hint of banter: "You actually dared to use me that day, do you really think you can escape?"
