Chapter 9 Murals
After learning that Wright's magic talent was extremely high, Master Wilmot was also very excited. Under the persuasion of his apprentice Carl, he did not forcefully accept Wright as a disciple on the spot, but said that he would report the matter to the lord. Then he gave it to the rest.
The next few children hurriedly drove them out of the hut after testing their talents. As for Wright, he was left in the hut. Wilmot's apprentice Carl went to inform the lord and Wright's adoptive father Andy.
About two-quarters of an hour later, Karl hurriedly returned, panting up and down and said, "Old, teacher, the lord asked you to take Brother Wright to his mansion as soon as possible."
Master Wilmot was a little dissatisfied: "Why doesn't he come over for such a big thing?" He grabbed Wright and said, "Forget it, I'll take you there." Then he recited a short spell, and Wright felt like he was surrounded by
A breeze made the body feel inexplicably relaxed, and then Master Wilmot took Wright directly out of the cabin. He left a message: "Karl, clean my room."
Carl wanted to cry but had no tears.
Wright was caught, and wanted to ask what kind of magic it was, but the strong wind that the "running" Wizard Wilmot brought with him when he walked hit his throat and was unable to speak. Unexpectedly, with the blessing of magic, the wizard's speed was no faster than that of a junior.
Poor warrior. But the old mage could easily see what Wright was thinking. While seemingly walking but walking very fast, he replied: "This is wind magic - acceleration, which is a very common magic. Although you don't have wind."
It is a talent in the Department, but fire magic also has similar effects." After a pause, "Any magic in any department is broad and profound, and you will have a lot of time to study it in the future!"
After a while, they arrived at the door of the lord's mansion. Wizard Wilmot stopped his magic to show respect, and then led Wright into the door of the mansion. The two guards at the door did not stop them at all, but just used curious expressions.
He looked at Wright with eyes.
Entering the hall of the mansion, there was no one there. Master Wilmot told Wright to stay here for a while, and then walked into a small door. Wright saw that the decoration of the lord's mansion was quite detailed, and there were many carvings on the rock walls.
There are exquisite pictures, there are pictures that only have a sense of beauty, there are also pictures of flowers, plants, monsters, and battles.
On the wall in the center of the hall, there is a huge picture carved. A strong warrior with an expressionless face is holding an iron rod and slamming a silver dragon. There is another person behind the dragon with a face full of fear and annoyance.
look.
Wright looked at him in fascination, and saw a hoarse voice coming from behind: "This is the mural of Kai Pu, the first generation patriarch of the Kai Pu family. It depicts the scene when Kai Pu killed the silver dragon and made great achievements. On the back of the silver dragon
That person is the Duke of White Mountain."
Wright was startled. Although he was not very strong now, his ears were still very sharp. Who appeared behind him quietly?! He turned around and saw a set of armor. Well, it was a person whose whole body was covered in armor.
, couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. He said hello: "Uncle Lei, it's you."
Lei, or Mr. Lei, the captain of the escort team, is one of the most mysterious figures in the entire Dragonfall Castle. First of all, Lei's appearance is very strange. He was a character who suddenly appeared when Viscount Diakep formed the escort team.
Generally speaking, seventh-level warriors have some reputations, but even some retired soldiers and retired mercenaries in the town have never known such a number one figure.
Secondly, Lei was appointed captain just after he joined the Guards. Because he did not reveal his strength at all, and Lei looked a little thin even when he wore armor, he was considered to be weak, which caused dissatisfaction among many people, including Wright's adoptive father An.
Di. However, Andy did not provoke because he was wary of another deputy captain Jafar. Some other warriors were instigated to challenge Lei. Lei also tried his best to avoid standing. It was not until Lord Cape ordered him to show his strength that he burst out with a powerful attack.
The power shocked the entire escort team. In fact, his adoptive father Andy bought a drink to celebrate. Fortunately, he did not challenge it. Of course, Wright felt that his adoptive father was deliberately looking for an excuse to buy drinks.
Finally, Captain Lei never took off his armor, not even during the town celebration, and no one saw his true face.
Therefore, many people speculate that Captain Lei is either a dead soldier of the Cape family or a fugitive who has committed serious crimes under the protection of the lord.
And I heard from my father Andy that Captain Lei's swordsmanship has reached the so-called "light weight" level, and he can easily dance a heavy weapon with great agility. He only knows this skill in the entire Falling Dragon Castle.
Just this one.
Captain Lei nodded towards Wright and continued to speak in a hoarse voice: "Little Wright, you have to know that all historical records will be biased according to the bias of the recorder. As far as I know, although Cape was killed back then,
He killed the Silver Dragon, a very powerful monster, but he never met the Duke of Baishan. The Duke of Baishan should have been fighting the army of our empire further south at that time. The only one who joined forces with the dragon at that time was the Duke of Baishan.
Disciple, just a seventh-level warrior. The silver dragon was said to be the mount of Duke Baishan. In fact, Duke Baishan already had a more powerful magic beast at that time, so he sent the giant dragon here to perform the mission, but it was picked up by the first leader of the Cape clan.
Cheap. I heard that the first Cape liked to take advantage. It is said..."
"Okay Lei." A middle-aged man's helpless voice came, interrupting Lei's words, "Don't speak ill of your ancestors in front of children."
The speaker was none other than the contemporary leader of the Cape clan, Viscount Diacap. He was a man who seemed to be around thirty years old, with red hair and black eyes, long hair shawl, and a pale complexion. He was wearing loose clothes commonly worn by Northland warriors.
The animal skin robe is obviously quite luxurious. His elegant demeanor makes him look like an ordinary nobleman. Of course, Wright knows that this viscount is not an ordinary nobleman, and he is one of the only seventh-level warriors in the entire territory.
The best head of the family in the past three hundred years. And after all, he should also be the lord of his own family.
"Little Wright, we have met before." Viscount Cape was obviously in a good mood at this moment, with a smile on his usually serious and gloomy face, "Judging from cousin Nicole, you should call me uncle."
"Lord Viscount Cape." Wright saluted. Although Viscount Cape said this, he obviously would not take it seriously. The other party had a high status and far surpassed him in terms of strength. He was also the lord of his own family. Although it seemed that because
He values his magical talent very much, but he certainly won't show any arrogance.
Seemingly satisfied with Wright's performance, Viscount Cape said with a smile: "I have long heard that little Wright has a very high talent as a warrior. He is already a first-class warrior at the age of 9. I didn't expect you to be so talented in magic.
The talent is even more powerful. I couldn't believe it when Master Wilmot told me just now." After a pause, he said, "Don't be nervous. I've already sent someone to invite your father. We finally managed to find some magic in Falling Dragon Castle.
Geniuses must be cultivated well!”
But in a short while, Andy ran into the lord's mansion in a hurry, and hugged Wright excitedly, so hard that Wright even had difficulty breathing.
"Dad, I'm so suffocated!" Andy, who was hugged by his adoptive father, once again proved the gap between himself and the sixth-level warriors. It wasn't until Viscount Cape behind him coughed several times that Andy reacted. Perseverance
His face was red, and he didn't know whether it was because he was happy or because he was slightly guilty for his rudeness just now, so he bowed slightly to the lord.
Only then did Wright see that Andy seemed to be followed by an old man. The old man seemed quite strange and had never been seen in a small town before. He was wearing a gorgeous khaki robe. He had a kind face and had been looking at Andy and Wright with a smile just now.
The father and son saw Wright looking at him and nodded slightly as their eyes met.
Viscount Cape was also a little surprised by the old man's arrival, "Priest Obadiah, you are here too."
The old man clasped his hands together, made a complicated ceremonial movement on his chest, and said with a smile: "The earth is the territory of the Lord. Everything that happens on the earth cannot escape the gaze of the Lord. Of course, a genius of earth magic is suitable to join our earth."
church."
"Old bastard!"*5, at this moment, the other five people in the hall of the mansion were cursing secretly, but whether it was Andy Wright and his son, Viscount Cape or Master Wilmot, they were all too proud to speak out, and Captain Lei
But he had no scruples. Although he lowered his voice, the six people in the hall could hear him clearly.
However, Priest Obadiah seemed to have a good temper and was not angry about it. He just continued his preaching: "My Lord is the incarnation of the earth, giving autumn harvests and giving warriors a destination. My Lord's followers are all upright people.
, I won’t be like the hypocrites of the Holy See of Light and the shady people of the Holy See of Darkness!”
Lei: "Can I still talk properly..."
"Ahem!" Viscount Cape once again interrupted Priest Obadiah's sermon with a cough, and introduced to Andy, Wright and Master Wilmot: "This Priest Obadiah is a member of the Church of the Earth in us.
The priest of Fallen Dragon Castle and a fifth-level earth magician. He usually lives in seclusion in the basement of the Earth Altar. You may have never seen him."
Master Wilmot nodded slightly in greeting. He believed that the magic level was higher. Even though the other party was a member of the giant force of the Church of the Earth, he could treat him as an equal. As for Andy, he pulled Wright to be honest.
After all, the status of magicians is much higher than that of warriors. In addition, they are priests of the Church of the Earth, so they are naturally considered important people who need to salute.
As for Captain Lei, as the real right-hand man of Viscount Cape, he has known this obscure old priest for a long time.
