my age of magic

Chapter 1022 123. Knowledge Square
Dozens of high-level colleges are gathered in the third block of the imperial capital. The cultural atmosphere and security here are second only to the first block. Under the careful management of the knight masters of the guard camp, it is even better than the second block. The square is not too far from the Royal Academy of Magic. Go straight for two kilometers along the street in front of the gate of the Royal Academy of Magic and turn left, and you will see a magnificent building like a thick code, the library of the imperial capital.

I heard that this library is open to all nobles in the imperial capital for free. If ordinary people want to read the books in the library, they must pay a certain library management fee and apply for a temporary pass.However, most of the books here are books on geography, architecture, plants, philosophy, art, language, history, astronomy, travel notes, etc. The collection does not include magic books, so the magicians of the Royal Academy of Magic even Forgot that there is such a building in the third block.

The entire knowledge square is paved with granite slabs. The architects designed the square in the shape of the sun. On the east side of the square, there is a row of white marble stone pillars. The tens of meters high stone pillars are topped with beams, which looks like a huge of the cloister.The west side, south side, and north side of the square are surrounded by buildings such as restaurants and entertainment venues. A group of waiters have placed long rows of square tables on the outermost edge of the square. Some people have already packed some exquisite pastries and fruits in trays. Put it like a hill.

Some restaurants have also set up barbecue grills outside. The lamb legs and steaks on the glowing red charcoal fire are sizzling, and the chefs brush some honey on the barbecue. These restaurants in the green capital are still very good for the barbecue dish. Yes, the traditional grilled meat is just brushed with some honey, sprinkled with some minced herbs when eating, cut into strips with a meat cleaver, and eaten with salt.

There were also many wicker baskets with breadsticks and large wooden barrels full of ale, which was the only favorite at such open-air dances.

Of course, if it's in Ayr City, there will be cider on the table, and there will be a rich mushroom soup.

The musicians were sitting in the corridor of the square. At this time, there was already the sound of soothing music. At the open-air dance of the coming-of-age ceremony, many young people in beautiful dresses rushed over from all directions, and they gathered in the square in twos and threes.

My appearance attracted a lot of attention.

This is not because the magic pattern on my body is so gorgeous that it makes people look sideways. Although there are not many people wearing a magic pattern in the knowledge square, I am not the only one, and of course I am not the most handsome one. , The reason why those people around me cast surprised eyes on me is purely because there is a strong tauren standing behind me.

On the streets of the imperial capital, you can often see elves and dwarves, and occasionally lizardmen and orcs, but tauren and ligers are not too common.

Noah and Shirley Newman gathered together with a group of students from Class [-] of the Fire Department of the Magic Academy, and stood beside the marble colonnade in the square, listening to the music quietly. These people wore magic robes and formed a small group by themselves.

The magicians of the Royal Academy of Magic seldom participate in the dance after the coming-of-age ceremony, because these magicians have completed the coming-of-age ceremony in their respective hometowns before enrolling.

Therefore, as soon as these magicians with the badge of the Royal Academy of Magic entered the square, they assumed a cold posture and monopolized a corner of the square, and no one dared to run over to disturb them for a while.

Noah saw me appearing on the edge of the square, and immediately waved me over. I didn't expect Noah to come so early, and Shirley Newman also greeted a group of classmates from the class. Noah and I are not good at communication , I don't have many friends in the class, but Shirley Newman has a lot of friends. She is very popular in the first class of the fire department, and she is very close to many people.

Miss Cherry was sitting on the stone steps not far away, looking at the young people in the square. She squinted her eyes and looked at each young man with relish. Ka, Deborah, and Justus approached, and Katerina was by my side.

"You're late, Jijia." Noah came up and punched me on the shoulder carelessly.

A faint earth-type light shield instantly blocked his fist, and Noah saw the magic pattern structure on my body, and exclaimed in surprise: "Damn it, where did you get this magic pattern structure?" , why do you have the magic pattern structure made of the earth cracked animal skin, my God, don't tell me this is the coming-of-age day gift you received today!"

Noah's fussy words suddenly attracted the attention of people around him.

"Is this the leather of the Earth Splitter?" I asked in surprise.

I didn't expect that the Yerkes scholar would give me such a precious set of magic patterns, and I was stunned for a while.

Seeing my appearance, Noah laughed twice, and said, "Why, you still don't know how precious this set of magic patterns on your body is?"

I shook my head blankly.

Noah pointed to Katerina, and explained to me: "It's similar to the sub-dragon light leather armor worn by your personal maid, but because it is an earth-type monster, the leather focuses on defense, so it is suitable for making hard leather armor." , shield warriors and knights like this kind of hard leather armor very much, the Earth Splitter has a deep underground world, and it is even rarer than the dragons, such a set of Earth Splitter's magic pattern structure, guess how much it is worth?"

I shook my head again.

"This is a piece of top-quality ground cracking beast leather. The magic pattern on the leather should also come from the hands of famous experts. The magic pattern line is smooth and natural. The specific function cannot be confirmed for the time being, but I have to say that this is a very delicate set of magic patterns. Clothes." A young magician came out from the crowd and commented on my magic-weave construction. "But having said that, this can only be worn at some balls or parties to show off the magic pattern structure and have fun. In the end, don't you want to wear the magic robe honestly?"

He went on to say: "Only the magic runes embroidered with magic lines hidden on the magic robes can improve our casting speed, mana recovery speed, wisdom and spiritual power. We magicians don't want to go to the battlefield Fighting on the battlefield, wearing the magic pattern structure on the body of the magician, it just looks very cool, and it is difficult to have any practical effect."

Hearing the sour words of the magician, Noah stepped forward unceremoniously, put a hand on the shoulder of the young magician, and said to him: "Benny, you don't understand Well, Jijia and I are not like you, we can't even hold an iron sword. We are members of the Sword and Rose Society, and our society pursues 'when the enemy is close, the magician must have a certain degree of self-protection. Ability', learning some martial arts self-defense, is exactly what our former president Lucia-senpai advocated, Ji Jia wears such a set of magic pattern structure, what is surprising."

Shirley Newman saw Noah acting like a dandy, scared the male student in their class to look ugly, stepped out quickly and pulled Noah away, pushed him aside, and then spoke to those around her The magicians said: "Hey, everyone, this is Jijia from the second class of the fire department, Noah and my friend, I think everyone is familiar with him."

"Jijia, this is my classmate, I invited them to the knowledge square to attend the dance together." Shirley introduced me, and then said to her classmates: "This is Jijia, it's me and Noah's Good friend, Jijia is a great master scroll maker, everyone may wish to get to know it, it will never hurt."

Hearing Shirley's introduction, several female classmates around Shirley Newman started to look at me seriously.

It seems that Shirley's "Noah's friend" played some role. Noah is the younger brother of Luis, the first heir to the Mensa family. It is almost a semi-open secret. No one wants to provoke Noah in the Royal Academy of Magic. ya.

On the contrary, some people even wanted to make friends with Noah through Shirley Newman. After hearing Shirley say that I was Noah's best friend, someone actually set their minds on me.

Noah usually seems to be easy-going, and he is rarely touched. I guess that the young magician named Benny just wanted to show off his talents, but he didn't expect to anger Noah. He was still a little stunned, not knowing how to resolve the embarrassment.

A female magician next to Shirley asked: "Xueli, this summer vacation, did you go out with Ji Jia, Noah and the others to practice?"

Shirley Newman showed a smile on her face and said, "Yes, in Vashj."

As long as everyone has a topic, they will try to avoid the embarrassing topics before. When Shirley's classmates heard Shirley talking about the experience journey, they asked enviously: "Vashj plane, the most abundant water world in the teleportation ?”

Noah put his hands on the top of his head and said, "The Vashj plane is known as the richest water world. Why have I never heard of this?"

The female magician standing next to Shirley smiled lightly and said, "Of course, it is said that wherever you go in an adventure group, you can basically return with a full reward. I heard from the people in the adventure group that sea beasts are easy to hunt over there."

"You guys went over there for training. Did you meet any sea beasts? If you can hunt them down, even if there is only one, you will probably be able to earn back the travel expenses spent this time." Another friend of Shirley Newman also asked curiously. : "Xue Li, have you hunted any sea beasts?"

"Yes, but speaking of it, there was a small problem in this experience, which caused our travel expenses to be a little bit higher, and our income from hunting sea beasts could not plug that big hole at all." Shirley Newman probably thought of returning In the Green Empire, we even spent huge sums of money to transform a sea ship.

Those of her classmates started to associate: "My God, don't you all take a super luxurious airship?"

I pulled Noah aside and started to search for Ying Li in the crowd. The soothing music echoed in the square, and the festive atmosphere had been gradually ignited.

We sat on the stone steps of the square corridor, I let out a long breath, and said to Noah: "Noah, you would never have imagined how many people participated in the coming-of-age ceremony in the imperial capital today, and all the streets are crowded. It wasn't a Gryphon Knight who sent me to the Municipal Square, maybe I will miss today's proclamation ceremony."

Noah seemed a little curious: "Griffin Knight? How does it feel to ride that thing?"

I didn't express my feelings, but asked Noah instead: "Doesn't Louis have a royal lion eagle, why? Could it be that you have never tried it?"

Noah shook his head regretfully, and said to me, "Louis is reluctant to let me get close to his familiar."

Seeing the affirmative answer from Noah's eyes, I said to Noah: "Now you have the magic handle, which is also very convenient. You don't have to take that kind of big guy. I found that even with the Griffon Knight on the side , it is still not very friendly to me, after all, it is a domesticated monster!"

……

Watching the sky darken a little bit, the colorful lights hanging on the surrounding bush walls have slowly lit up, and the square has become extraordinarily bright, surrounded by colorful colors, and finally saw Ying Li's carriage at the edge of the square.

When I saw Ying Li walking down from the carriage, I realized that Ying Li was pouted, frowning slightly, looking sullen.

I was about to run over to ask her if I had another quarrel with Mrs. Manda, but I found a strange yet familiar figure appeared behind Yingli, who was lifting up the gauze curtain at the door of the carriage for Yingli. When I looked up to the outside of the carriage, I saw his face—Nickels.

The elf nobleman who had chased to the War College in El City did not know why he could appear beside Ying Li. Although Ying Li had a look of helplessness on his face, he did not refuse his help and quickly got off the carriage.

Then that Nichols also stepped out of the magic caravan. His handsome appearance and neat court attire immediately attracted the attention of a large group of people. Standing beside Ying Li, he looked graceful.

When I was observing carefully, I found a tall elf girl walking out of the carriage one after another. At first I thought it was Lucia accompanying Yingli, but I didn't expect that the face was very different from Lucia. At this time, Suddenly, an elf's name flashed through my mind - Lagertis.

I haven't seen this elf girl for a long time. I didn't expect her to appear after such a long time.

Then Helena and Becky walked out of the magic caravan.

Qige appeared on the magic caravan again, and she followed closely the young man she met at the entrance of the magic laboratory in the morning. When Qige got off the car, she even smiled at him.

Seeing Yingli and Qige appearing at the same time, although I was accompanied by a male companion, I still walked up without hesitation.

The style of music on the Knowledge Square changed, and the rhythm became faster. Following the music, I walked quickly to Yingli and Qige.

Seeing me approaching, Ying Li hurried forward a few steps and stood by my side.

I lowered my voice and asked her, "What's the matter?"
