In the center of the Garden Square of Hiranza City stands a Baroque-style clock tower.
This bell tower sits on a solid granite base and is entirely made of bluestone. It is the tallest building in the Garden Square area. The four sides of the bell tower are carved with exquisite giant reliefs, each of which tells a story of the glory of the city of Hilanza.
History. It is said that there used to be a dragon nest on the stone cliff at the southern end of the Pagros Mountains. A red dragon was entrenched here and often attacked humans in the southern part of the Pagros Mountains.
In order to resist this red dragon, the people here built pedestal castles everywhere and invested heavily in installing some giant crossbows on the arrow towers of these castles. However, even so, they still could not stop the intrusion of the red dragon.
Duke Newman summoned the Bena swordsmen and organized three dragon hunting operations. Finally, in the last dragon hunting operation, Duke Newman killed the red dragon with the Quel'Sera sword in his hand. Officially due to that battle,
The southern foothills of Paglos Mountain were completely reduced to a piece of scorched earth. The place where the red dragon was once fought has now become a desolate land, and the dragon's nest has been burning for hundreds of years, covering a radius of hundreds of miles.
There is a thick layer of volcanic ash, which is called Pussy Mountain by the Halanza people.
Standing on the observation deck of the bell tower, holding on to the railings, she looked out at the light blue mountains outside the city. The cold south wind blew Hathaway's long, golden and soft hair away. She stretched out her hands to gather her long hair and tied it with a
The handkerchief was tied into a refreshing ponytail, and his green eyes looked in the direction of Surdak's finger, trying to cross the five ridges to see clearly which mountain pass Surdak mentioned.
According to Suldak, as long as you cross the mountain pass, you can see the village of Wall on the edge of the deserted land.
She and Beatrice stood side by side, and Beatrice looked at Suldak with admiration, not hiding her fiery gaze.
During the chat, Beatrice had already figured out Suldak's family situation. He not only had a wife, but also a son. Thinking of this, Hathaway became a little depressed and felt sad.
I wonder if my trip to Helensa was too impulsive.
Seeing Beatrice's happy face, Hathaway was filled with confusion. She couldn't see the future clearly, and she couldn't be as straightforward and casual as Beatrice. She still had to take care of her family.
She felt that she didn't know how to convince her father and gain his support.
The three of them then went to the Temple of Liberty in Helensa City. However, this magnificent temple was now completely ruined. Many of the gold-painted reliefs on the surrounding walls were seriously damaged. There is only one watchman in this temple now.
Suldak showed the guard camp knight badge and took out ten silver coins to persuade the old man to open the door.
The courtyard of the temple is paved with bluestone slabs, but the gaps between these bluestone slabs are now overgrown with weeds. The Holy Grail-shaped water-spraying stone sculpture in the middle of the courtyard is covered with a thick layer of bird droppings, and there is a thick layer of bird droppings on the top of the petal-shaped sculpture.
, surprisingly there is also a bird's nest.
When I walked into the auditorium, I found that the Statue of Liberty inside had collapsed, and the hand representing freedom fell into a pile of rubble.
"The condition of the temple in Bena City is better than here. At least there are still a few priests." Hathaway stopped in front of the statue and said.
All the valuable things in the temple have been emptied. Even the benches in the auditorium only have a few broken legs. There was originally a silver basin filled with holy water in front of the high platform, but that platform
Now there is only a dark hole left, and the silver basin has long been lost.
"I didn't expect that the temple here would be so dilapidated..." Beatrice said, standing next to Hathaway.
Naturally, there was nothing to visit in the completely abandoned Statue of Liberty Temple. The three of them walked around casually and walked out of it.
Before leaving, the old man guarding the door smiled obscenely at Suldak and showed a look that said, "I understand you."
Time passed very quickly, and in a blink of an eye, Suldak had been walking around the city with Hathaway and Beatrice for most of the day. The three of them randomly found a restaurant on the street of the Magic Tower and
After enjoying a dinner, Suldak showed his courtesy as a landlord and planned to end today's trip.
The magic caravan parked in front of Hathaway and Beatrice's temporary residence. Suldak declined the invitation to sit inside and said goodbye to the two women.
"Will you write to me?" Beatrice stood at the door and asked Suldak with some reluctance.
Surdak nodded.
"When you come to Bena City, will you come to see me?" Beatrice asked again.
Suldak nodded again and said, "Yes."
Beatrice smiled, but her eyes were filled with sparkles. She took a deep breath to prevent tears from flowing down so easily.
Surdak mounted the ancient Bolai horse and waved to the two women.
Then the rapid sound of horse hooves sounded, and Suldak's figure quickly disappeared on this long street.
…
After taking a bath, Beatrice lay on the soft bed wearing a thin nightgown. There was a sheepskin diary in front of her, holding a quill in her hand, and writing in the diary while speaking to Hathaway.
Said: "Hathaway, how do you think we can convince the people in my family to allow me to marry a knight?"
Facing Beatrice’s question, Hathaway said very speechlessly:
"how could I know?"
She is taking care of her hedgehog crystal lion leather armor.
Tight leather armor needs to be coated with some grease in spring. If it is not maintained for too long, the leather will harden. Once the leather of this kind of tight leather armor hardens, the movements during combat will be affected. Therefore, as a swordsman, you must first
Learn to take care of your own leather armor.
Beatrice lay on the bed, supporting her chin with one hand, and asked with a troubled face:
"Hey, Hathaway, if I succeed one day, can we still be best friends?"
Hathaway was slightly startled. She seemed to have never thought about this problem. Now that she thought about it, joining Beatrice was really willing to let go of everything she had. It seemed that it was really possible. She suppressed the rising feeling in her heart.
Feeling irritated, he turned around, held Beatrice's round face, pressed his fair forehead against hers, and said to her: "Of course, we will always be best friends."
Beatrice breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes became much brighter, she jumped up like a female leopard and hugged Hathaway, the two rolled on the big bed, Beatrice stared at the sea
With her green eyes, Sevi said extremely seriously: "Then we have agreed, no matter which one of you or I gets what we want one day in the future, we are not allowed to be angry with the other."
"I'm not planning to marry him!" Hathaway said against her will, avoiding Beatrice's gaze.
The always cold little hand reached in from her collar and pressed on her plump breasts. Hathaway struggled for a while and asked Beatrice:
"Hey, Beatrice, what are you doing?"
Beatrice smiled and said: "Let me touch your heart. Do you dare to say what you just said again?"
"Don't make trouble..."
Hathaway pushed Beatrice's hand away and whispered with a blush.
…
After leaving the alley, Suldak scratched his hair vigorously to expel some unrealistic thoughts from his head.
After living in the city of Helensa for nearly half a year, he has a deeper understanding of this society. For example, there is an invisible but insurmountable wall between the nobles and the common people. Although he is a first-class knight,
It only belongs to civilians with a little bit of 'privilege'.
When passing the Magic Guild, Surdak pulled the reins of the horse. He thought that he was about to leave Helensa and should visit Scholar Ferdinand before leaving. Thinking of this, he jumped off the horse and led the horse towards the magic tower.
After handing the horse to the guard at the door and reporting the name of Scholar Ferdinand, Surdak successfully entered the Magic Guild.
In Suldak's impression, Scholar Ferdinand rarely left the Magic Tower, and he could be found every time he came here.
This time Surdak visited Scholar Ferdinand. As expected, he was staying in the mage tower, and he seemed to have just completed a magic experiment. He was exchanging some experiences during the experiment with several magic apprentices. The young magicians around him
The apprentice quickly recorded the words of scholar Ferdinand, showing admiration on his face.
Scholar Ferdinand saw Surdak push open the door and walk in. He waved his hand to the magic apprentices surrounding him, indicating that the exchange of ideas would be suspended. Then he walked up to Surdak and greeted him on the sofa in the rest area.
sit down.
A female magic apprentice brought two cups of green tea, which made Suldak wonder whether after drinking this cup of tea, he would become like a firefly, and a section of intestines in his stomach would also emit gleaming lights.
Green light, he smiled at the female magic apprentice and did not dare to try.
Scholar Ferdinand did not hesitate, took a sip, and then asked Suldak: "Why do you have time to come to my place?"
Suldak told Scholar Ferdinand that he had participated in the plane war in the Maca plane some time ago, and Scholar Ferdinand said with a sudden look on his face: "No wonder I haven't seen you for a while, Lance
That guy seems to have also participated in this plane war..."
"We met several times in Wozhimala City, he was in the magician investigation team." Surdak said.
Scholar Ferdinand seemed to have thought of something. He sat up straight and looked towards Suldak. He asked curiously: "By the way, have you used the strengthening scroll I gave you last time? How do you feel?"
,Has your physique improved a little?”
Suldak touched his nose and said: "Well... it happened that my horse's legs were broken at that time. Its four legs were broken on the battlefield in the Warsaw plane. I'm worried that it will be difficult to recover if it is broken again.
, so I used it..."
For a moment, all the sounds in the laboratory seemed to disappear, and Scholar Ferdinand and his magic apprentices stared at Suldak in disbelief.
Scholar Ferdinand pointed at Suldak and said sadly: "You actually gave a precious magic strengthening scroll to your war horse?"
"It turns out that it works very well..." Surdak answered honestly.
Scholar Ferdinand's complaints stopped abruptly, and he couldn't wait to ask: "Tell me about the situation."
Suldak said to Scholar Ferdinand: "That horse is downstairs. Do you want to take a look for yourself? I think its legs have undergone certain changes!"
Before Suldak could finish speaking, Scholar Ferdinand stood up and said, "Then what are we waiting for here? Take me to see it quickly."
Scholar Ferdinand took several magic apprentices and carefully inspected the ancient Bolai horse for a long time before returning to the mage tower with satisfaction.
According to scholar Ferdinand, this magic enhancement scroll was very successful. The only uncontrollable thing was that there was excess magic power in the scroll, which stimulated some kind of benign mutation in the fractured leg of the war horse.
This can fully prove that the design of the magic strengthening scroll is completely feasible...
After hearing what Scholar Ferdinand said, Surdak also secretly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, thinking that it was a good thing that the scroll was not used on himself.
Scars on the body are already scary, but it would be the worst if countless blood vessels bulge somewhere on the body.
Surdak then discussed some popular knowledge about magic pattern breeding clothing with Scholar Ferdinand.
Scholar Ferdinand told Suldak that the reason why the imperial magicians' research on magic pattern clothing has been at a standstill is mainly because of the lack of understanding of the magic pattern of life. Magic pattern clothing not only affects the carrying capacity of warriors,
There are strict requirements. Whether the attributes of the life magic pattern match the warrior's own attributes is also crucial. If the fusion effect of the magic pattern reproduction equipment and the recipient is poor during the implantation process, it also means that the reproduction equipment has failed.
.
Once the implant fails, it will not only affect the health of the recipient, but may even endanger the life.
In addition, for many magicians, the magic pattern of life is something that can only be encountered but not sought.
There are even fewer books on the magic pattern of life, and only a few magic scholars are interested in academic research in this area.
Currently, there are only some test data on black magic patterns in the books of the Magic Guild, but this dark element will corrode the body of the recipient. Once the implantation process fails, the recipient may become a madman, or may have traces on his body.
The injury is irreparable, so the Magic Guild prohibits black-striped magic skin from being used as magic-striped magic skin. The black-striped magic skin seized from the battlefield can only be used for academic research.
Surdak originally wanted to tell Scholar Ferdinand that he had successfully implanted a magic-patterned cloak into an archer.
Hearing what Scholar Ferdinand said, he hesitated a little. After thinking about it again, he decided not to talk about it for the time being. Moreover, regarding how to obtain the magic pattern of life, Surdak felt that it was not like what Scholar Ferdinand said.
So difficult.
Before leaving, Surdak said that he had completed his studies at the Knight Academy in Helensa City and was about to serve as the Sheriff of the deserted land outside the Paglos Pass and go to the deserted land...
Scholar Ferdinand didn't say much about this matter. He only said that if you don't want to stay in the guard camp, you can join the Magic Guild...
When Surdak left the Magic Guild, the sky was already filled with stars.
