my age of magic

Chapter 1085. 188. Meeting Felix Again
I didn't answer Wizard Dunlop's question, I just smiled at him.

"This thing is much more useful than a powerful healing potion!" Magician Dunlop didn't seem to mind my avoidance, and added another sentence.

Maybe it was because we chatted with me for a long time, and we became familiar with each other. He turned his eyes and landed on the female companion sitting next to me.

He looked at Becky, and then said to Becky: "Girls in the imperial capital seem to like to wear unique tight leather armor and leather skirts. It seems that this can show off their proud figures and well-proportioned long legs, but if One day, if you are going to the plane of Yero, you must remember to coil up your beautiful long hair, add a layer of hard leather armor on the outside of the tight leather armor, and wear leather pants. The black forest is full of poisonous Snakes, ants and mosquitoes like to suck the blood of humans and animals most.”

Becky was sitting next to me at the dining table. There was only a glass of liqueur in front of her, and she was taking sips one by one. Unexpectedly, Magician Dunlop changed the subject and fell on her all of a sudden. Talking about the life experience in the jungle, he didn't answer the conversation, just lowered his head and lowered his eyelids and listened quietly to Dunlop's magician.

"Hey, Dunlop, do you know who you're telling about life in the bush?"

Hearing a familiar voice from around me, I quickly turned my head, just in time to see Felix wearing a quartermaster uniform, walking slowly from the direction of the dance floor, his face honed by years of vicissitudes, like a blooming wild chrysanthemum Same, full of smiles.

"Felix, do you know Magician Jijia?" Magician Dunlop looked at Felix in surprise and asked him.

"Of course, I know Jijia very well!" Felix said to Wizard Dunlop. He sat on the bench next to Magician Dunlop and said to me: "Hey! Jijia, how are you doing here in the imperial capital? Sample?"

I said to Felix, "It's all right, Felix, are you all right?"

Felix shrugged his shoulders, sighed lightly, and said: "In the Battle of Tanton City, although the Duke of Samoyed suffered some losses, there was also a good side. At least it allowed him to see clearly the current situation of the Hierro plane. , There have finally been some changes in the military deployment, and the situation is constantly turning around for the better, and now, your old friend Knight Disraeli has become the chief military officer of Tanton City."

I put down the knife in my hand, wiped my mouth with a handkerchief, and asked Felix, "Felix, I want to rebuild the town of Trume. Do you think this is the right time?"

"Oh? You're ready so fast?" Felix asked me in surprise.

Seeing my bewildered face, he explained to me carefully: "It is not enough to prepare enough gold coins to build a town, you also need at least a large number of craftsmen and supplies, as well as the managers of the town and the population of the town. , During the recent period, although the Nebulu spiders have all retreated to the south of the Black Forest, it is hard to say whether they will make a comeback. Every month, a small group of spider warriors will always invade the surroundings of Tanton City. If you want to build a town right now, it's impossible not to have no defense at all."

I said to Felix: "I have prepared all these, but the population problem has to be done slowly."

The old military quartermaster from the plane of Hierro then asked me: "Do you know how much it costs to invest in a small town that has just taken shape?"

I rubbed my head, Katerina has been doing the calculations in this area, and she didn't say how much she plans to take from me.

I said, "It won't cost much!"

Felix shook his head slightly, and said: "While building a town, develop resources such as mines, pastures, farms, forest farms, etc., to achieve a balance of income and expenditure on the book, find some venture capital companies to make a certain amount of venture capital, That's the way of peacetime, but now don't think that there will be venture capital companies investing money in you, unless you can get the strong support of the big lords."

He snapped his fingers and explained to me in detail: "At this time, to build a small town with fortifications in the outskirts of Tanton City, you need at least to be prepared to hire a mercenary group with more than [-] constructed fighters in the small town. The town is garrisoned, and in the initial stage of the town's construction, the largest consumption is stone. These stones are definitely not something you can solve by temporarily opening a quarry. Those stonemasons must be stationed a month earlier than other people. Constantly pressing on your shoulders, you must have a strong enough economic foundation to consider this matter, and if you calculate it this way, the initial capital to build a small town needs at least this amount.”

As he spoke, he stretched out a palm and placed it on the table.

"Fifty thousand magic spar?" I blurted out.

Hearing me say [-] magic crystals instead of [-] gold coins, he gave me a surprised look, and then said to me: "In the initial cost, hiring people will be the biggest cost for you to build the town. pin."

Felix paused for a moment, and then said again: "At this time, if you don't give enough gold coins, who would be willing to take risks on the plane. You can go to Pereira City to see it. Now Pereira The city is already overcrowded. There are at least 150 million people waiting in Pereira. They all want to move from the plane of Hierro to the mainland of the Green Empire. You know that the tickets for the magic teleportation circle in Pereira are already hard to find. Is it enough?"

In the imperial capital, there is no negative news about the Yero plane. It is only said that the Duke of Samoyed has stabilized the situation in the Yero plane and has driven the Nibru tribe spiders to the southern part of the Black Forest.

Unexpectedly, there are still so many people who still have a pessimistic attitude towards the Hierro plane, and so many people want to emigrate to the plane.

Felix said to me: "It is easy to enter the plane of Hierro now. If you want to leave, you have to wait for the teleportation array in Pereira City to be opened to the public. It is easy to enter the plane of Hierro now, but if you want to leave from Yero It is very difficult to come out of the Luo plane."

Speaking of which, I just wanted to follow the Duke of Samoyed into the Hierro plane, and I never thought about leaving the Hierro plane through that portal.

Felix continued to give me some suggestions, and I heard him say: "Jijia, you have two ways to build the town of Trum, one is to hire mercenaries and craftsmen in the plane of Hierro, but there is no lucrative No one would be willing to work in the suburbs of Tanton City for the reward. The second is to find mercenaries and craftsmen in Duerva Province, and enter the plane of Yero through the portal of the Duke’s Mansion, but how many people are willing to get involved in the war of planes? , it’s an unknown.”

It seems that this war of planes has already caused heavy losses to many dukes.

Felix said: "If you want to hire people in the empire, it's best not to worry about the travel expenses. It's better to hire craftsmen and mercenaries from outside Durva Province! Those small lords in Durva Province are a bunch of eggless The guys, who have been frightened by the Nebulu tribe spiders, are a bunch of bloodless idiots."

He rubbed his stubbled chin and said, "In terms of mercenaries, it's safer to hire the mercenary regiment from the Northern Province. If it's craftsmen in construction, it's far less cost-effective to hire craftsmen than to buy a batch of slaves."

The Dunlop magician who was sitting on the side seemed to be dumbfounded. He never thought that I was also a little lord on the Hierro plane, and I wanted to go to the Hierro plane at this time. Build a town on the surface.

When Felix and I were discussing the construction of the small town of Trume, a waiter came up and said to me: "Mage Jijia, Your Excellency Duke please!"

It seemed that Duke Samoyed's business affairs tonight had come to an end, so I hurriedly got up and apologized to Felix and Magician Dunlop, took Becky and followed the waiter to leave the table.

At this time, the conversation between the two people was transmitted to my ears verbatim.

I heard Magician Dunlop ask Felix: "Felix, is this Magician Jijia also the lord of our Hierro plane?"

Felix said: "He owns a large piece of territory in the Trume area southeast of Tanton City. What's the matter? Dunlop."

Dunlop became a little stuttering: "No...it's nothing, but speaking of it, maybe Ji Jia's magician will become famous soon?"

Felix asked him, "Oh? What happened?"

As I kept walking away, the conversation between the two became quieter, and the magician Dunlop deliberately lowered his voice and whispered to Felix: "He just cured Zach and Ernestine. !"

Gradually I couldn't hear so clearly.

I heard Felix say: "It's not surprising, I know he is a water magician."

But Dunlop said: "The problem is, Zach suffered such a serious injury before, but now he has become alive and kicking. You said that Zac will appear at the ball later, what will those little lords think?"

There was a sense of disbelief in Felix's words: "What..."

The Duke of Samoyed seemed to have been sitting on the sofa without moving, but the lords had already left, and he was talking to Qige in a low voice.

Zach was wearing a standard military uniform and sitting on the sofa on the other side. He looked so heroic. He was very tall, and wearing a straight military uniform, he was very handsome. He was not far from the Duke of Samoyed. , it can be seen that his face shape is somewhat similar to that of the Duke of Samoyed.

Ernestine is no longer just wrapped in bandages. She is wearing a nightgown, and she is still a little haggard at this time, and her face looks a little pale. When she saw me approaching, she probably remembered that I almost cut off her body. All bandages, reddish face, eyes turned to the side, deliberately avoiding my gaze.

When the Duke of Samoyed saw me coming with the waiter, he immediately stopped talking with Qige, and said to me with a smile: "If I had known that you had such superb medical skills, I should have gone to the imperial capital and come to you immediately."

I waved my hands again and again, and said to the Duke of Samoyed: "I just happen to know some common sense of wound treatment. I have two bottles of super healing potions in my hand. It can't be said that it is entirely because of my relationship. It's more effective."

"Super healing potion? Where can I buy this thing?" Duke Samoyed immediately turned to Qige and asked.

Qige smiled lightly, glanced at me, and said, "I don't know where he got it from. I'm good at combat potions, and I'm not good at making healing potions. Don't you think the Duke thinks it's in his bag? Are those potions I specially prepared for him?"

The Duke of Samoyed smiled and said to me: "Jijia, I didn't expect you to grow so fast after seeing each other for half a year. This time, you saved Zach and Ernestine, tell me what kind of reward you want , how about I draw another large piece of territory on the Hierro plane for you?"

I thought about it, and said to the Duke of Samoyed: "My lord, speaking of it, I really want to ask you one thing."

"Oh? Let's talk about something." The Duke of Samoyed said to me.

When he squinted, his hidden gaze was as sharp as a falcon.

I said: "Please take me with you when you leave the imperial capital!"

I touched my head, and then said to the Duke of Samoyed: "I want to take your temporary teleportation magic circle to the plane of Yero, but I don't want to waste half a month on the magic airship, so I take the liberty to borrow your teleportation magic formation."

When the Duke of Samoyed heard my request, he immediately stretched his brows and laughed, and said to me: "Oh? You don't always waste the rewards promised by a duke so easily, this matter is very simple for me Are you considering changing it?"

I thought to myself: The look in my eyes just now seemed to kill someone, what else can I say!

Of course, I can’t express these thoughts in person. I squeezed a smile and said to the Duke of Samoyed: “It’s just a piece of cake for you, but for me, it saves a lot of time. I don’t want to waste time. spend on travel."

The Duke of Samoyed seemed to be in a very comfortable mood, and said bluntly, "Okay, since you made this request, I can promise you now."

……

After finishing the business with the Duke of Samoyed, Qige, Ying Li, and I did not stay at the ball held by the Duke of Samoyed, and left the manor of the Duke of Samoyed.

Our magic caravan first sent Yingli back to the Prince's Mansion. Although it has exceeded the time set by Mrs. Manda at night, fortunately, Mrs. Manda's attitude towards me has changed recently, and her requirements for Yingli are not so strict. .

Afterwards, Qige and I returned to the Academy of Magic together.

On the way, Qige sat across from me, looked at me with squinted eyes and a smile, and stretched out her hand, saying to me: "Tell me, what kind of good thing is it, quickly give it to me..."

I took out a crystal bottle from my magic pocket, which contained a drop of emerald green 'essence of life', a faint breath of life leaked out from the bottle, Qige held the crystal bottle carefully in the palm of her hand, and stared wide-eyed. Eyes carefully distinguish...
