my age of magic

Chapter 1136 239. Quartermaster of the South Wind Legion 2
Although the sunlight coming in through the glass window is still dazzling, it has lost its original temperature. The light shone on my hand, revealing a slanted pattern on the magic parchment. I kept turning the magic engraving between my fingers. pen, the rune teacher on the podium left lines of clear text on the blackboard, but those familiar runes can no longer arouse my interest. I think the runes I drew are even better than the one on the stage. The teacher is more standard.

During my time in the Yerkes Scholar's Magic Lab, I was exposed to a lot of rare magic runes, and now the first-year magic runes class at the Royal Academy of Magic is nothing new to me.

When I took Ying Li and others to visit Xinliu Valley yesterday, Becky suggested that I become a quartermaster of the South Wind Army. After thinking about it, I rejected the proposal.I promised Jingyue Duke Ellie that after graduation, I would return to the northern province of Sloit and join the North Wind Army, so I will not join the South Wind Army as a quartermaster.

The bell for the end of class at the Royal Academy of Magic always seems so long and melodious. Noah and I walked out of the classroom and walked along the winding staircase to the steps outside the teaching building. The bell for the end of class still echoed in the campus. Today is the free open day of the five departments of the Royal Academy of Magic and Magic. Many magic students went to the ecological garden to meditate. As the end of this semester is approaching, every magic student hopes that their magic level will go further. Everywhere, you can see the magic students sitting on the magic-gathering cushions and meditating.

After my magic level reached the eighth level, my magic practice has not stopped. If I didn't deliberately suppress the magic power in my body, I am afraid that I have broken through to the ninth level.At this time, Scholar Xiao En told me to stop for a while to let the magic power in my body become more concentrated, which would be of great help to my future magic training.

Noah knew that I would not go to the water ecological park, so he asked me after class: "I asked Shirley to find a place in the fire ecological park, do you want to experience the water magic in a place full of fire elements?" What does it taste like?"

Shaking my head, I smiled and refused to Noah and said: "I will go to the fire ecological garden to occupy the resources of your fire magicians. Am I free to do anything?"

Noah didn't make any excuses, just smiled 'hehe'.

Noah and I walked out talking and laughing, and several male magic students who are usually close to Noah in the class also joined Noah. After discussing about practicing meditation in the fire ecological park, we went to Ask some beautiful girls over at the Advanced Swordsman Academy, and find a high-end restaurant to have dinner together.

Noah said to me in the crowd: "Jijia, you have been at the Royal Academy of Magic for so long, you probably have never participated in this kind of fraternity! Would you like to experience it with us?"

I know that the magic students of the Royal Academy of Magic often hold such fraternities, and they can always meet beautiful girls from the Swordsman Academy. Those ladies from noble families also hope to meet a young and outstanding magician, after all The reputation of magicians who graduated from the Royal Academy of Magic has always been very good. Maybe you can enjoy a romantic love with a girl who you fall in love with at first sight at the sorority party.

I had no interest in this, so I shrugged my shoulders to Noah and said, "It's not like you don't know how busy I am. There are too many things to prepare recently, let's do it next time!"

"Don't always use the same excuse to prevaricate me!" Noah protested to me, "I know you are busy, but don't you think there should be some other fun in your life? It's easy for you to have no friends like this. "

I said to him, "Aren't you my friend? That's not enough!"

"I have nothing to do with you." Noah patted his forehead vigorously, as if remembering something, and then said to me: "I heard that the people from the Inscription Literature Society are preparing inscription works to participate in the winter inscription exhibition, you Do you want to participate too?"

Scholar Yerkes mentioned this to me, and now that Noah is also talking about it, it seems that the winter inscription exhibition in the imperial capital is quite grand.

So I nodded and said, "Well, the Yerkes scholars are going to participate, and if I have time, I will go along with them."

While we were talking, the two of us had already walked down the stone steps with others, and the fountain on the opposite side was already filled with thick snow. I don’t know who built a snowman on the side, which looked naive, but in my opinion—— Shouldn't the Royal Academy of Magic have some snow sculptures more befitting of wizards?

I thought about turning the snow in the fountain into a set of huge sculptures, maybe showing the scenes of the northern knights fighting the barbarians, or shaping the spider warlord on the plane of Hierro and the Asian king above the clouds. The scene of dragon fighting, or simply the bow of a big ship riding the wind and waves, I should be able to easily turn those snow into waves.

Then I heard a friend from the same class shouting from the side: "Hey, look quickly, the noble lady with the sword on her waist is really a beautiful girl, she should be a girl from the Advanced Swordsman Academy, why have I never Met her! I'm going to say hi to her, maybe I can invite her to our dinner party tonight."

A magic student named Allen pulled his magic robe a little nervously, and whispered to his companions: "Hey! Hey! Hey! Stop talking, hurry up and straighten your own collar, she turned towards us Came over here."

The magic student who spoke before took two quick steps forward, not to be outdone, and said in a low voice: "It's agreed, we want to compete fairly!"

Noah, who was standing in the crowd behind, put his hands on his waist, laughed 'haha' and said, "Forget about it! Her name is Helena, and she is here to find Jijia. You discuss all day if you marry Daughters of Prince James, what will you do? Don’t tell you that you don’t even know Princess Yingli, the daughter of Prince James!”

The two magic students in front stopped quickly, and the magic student named Allen said with a very regretful expression: "Ah! I should have thought of it a long time ago. She is Princess Yingli's female companion. I read it in the magic newspaper. If I've seen her online, I should have recognized her immediately."

The magic student who spoke before said: "Why do I also want to know a princess from the Angibald royal family..."

Noah added fuel to the two of them on the side: "If you really think so, maybe I have a way. I heard that as long as you join the royal court magic group after graduation, you will have the right to live in the floating king city. At that time, it was not easy to meet a royal princess? But are you sure you want to do it?"

The two magic students became a little hesitant when they heard Noah say this, and hurriedly said, "Let's think about it."

Helena was wearing a set of thorntail crystal lion tight leather armor, and a crimson long sword hung on her slender waist. She walked over the crowd and walked in front of me. Arm, said sweetly to me: "Jijia, your afternoon time has been confiscated by us, do you have any objections?"

As he spoke, he pulled me out of the crowd, and I had no choice but to wave goodbye to Noah.

Noah saw Ying Li coming to the Royal Academy of Magic to look for me, and knowing that I probably wouldn't have lunch with him, he took the initiative to say to me: "Then I'm going to find Shirley Newman!"

With my back to him, I raised my hand above my head again to show that I knew.

At this time, I could still vaguely hear Alan's voice from behind whispering to everyone: "Look, in fact, the price you need to pay for wanting to sleep with an Angibald princess in your arms is Losing precious freedom and going to work for the royal court magic troupe, think about it, giving up the entire forest and the most precious freedom for a big tree, the sacrifice is quite a lot.”

"There is always a price to pay, isn't it? Such a beautiful noble lady is really rare in the imperial capital!"

"Stop talking nonsense..."

……

Walking from the square of the Royal Academy of Magic to the entrance of the academy, Helena has been holding my arm. She has a beautiful face and has attracted the attention of countless magic students. Ying Li is on the other side of me and sent them back to Prince James last night. At the lakeside castle, they didn't say they would come to the college to find me at noon today, so when I saw the three of them at the entrance of the teaching building, I was a little surprised.

Katerina came out from nowhere. She put on the 'Earth Shield' magic pattern structure and the emperor squid battle armor skirt on the Yalong's tight leather armor. This outfit has a strong tribal style. Coupled with her ruby-like eyes, the breath exuding from her body can already make people feel a slight sense of oppression. She seems to have advanced again recently.

Katerina said that her recent level increase is probably related to the primary magic pattern structure I tattooed on her wrist and ankle. Na has benefited a lot, and the energy-gathering magic pattern continuously absorbs mana into Katerina's body, and her body always maintains the magic state of "Wind Run" and "Weakness Detection", which means that the two The primary magic pattern structure further strengthened her body, allowing her to feel new strength.

Helena looked enviously at the magic lines on Katerina's wrist, pursed her bright red lips, and said nothing.

Ying Li stood beside me and said softly to me: "If you have time in the afternoon, I will take you to meet someone." '

I smiled and pinched her cheeks that were flushed from the cold, and said to her: 'Okay. '

After getting in the magic caravan, Helena came here for Ying Li, and I realized that this time I was going to take me to see Earl Donald Raleigh, in order to support my magic engraving machine workshop in Simwill Valley to continuously manufacture The magic crossbow, after Ying Li returned to Prince James' manor last night, he still mentioned it to Prince James in private.

When it comes to the secrets related to the magic engraving machine, Yingli didn't say anything. He only said that I have a batch of black iron arrowheads suitable for bed crossbows. Is the logistics department's next procurement plan finalized? If it hasn't been decided yet, is it possible for the military department and the logistics department to coordinate and purchase a batch of black iron arrows in my hand under the same quality and price? .

In fact, it goes without saying that I know that Prince James definitely doesn’t like his daughter meddling in military affairs, but out of love for Yingli, he still promised to give me a chance. He wants us to meet Donald Trump, the chief officer of the Southwind Army’s logistics department. Raleigh, as long as we can convince Earl Donald, then he has the right to decide whether to buy my bed crossbow black iron arrow.

Speaking of it, every time I get a magic crossbow arrow, I have to produce 24 failed products. These failed magic crossbow arrows can't be engraved with magic circles on the arrows before they are returned to the furnace for recasting, but this printing magic The failed product after the pattern is still a high-quality ordinary crossbow arrowhead, which is as sharp and heavy, but the tip of the arrow is covered with some dark patterns.

If I want to create more magic crossbow bolts, I will generate a large number of ordinary crossbow arrows with dark patterns. These black iron arrows are all purchased from North Duisburg. The base of these ordinary arrows is huge. If they are used by barbarian slaves on the battlefield, they will only accumulate more and more. If these failed products are thrown into the furnace and remade, it is obviously a waste.

Becky's idea was to ask me to sell these dark-patterned arrowheads as ordinary crossbow arrow clippers, so that I could make up for the loss.

Unexpectedly, the first big buyer that Ying Li contacted for me was actually his father, Prince James.

……

Haiyinsi City is a city on the sea, but this does not mean that the city was built on an island. Hundreds of thousands of stone pillars rise from the seabed at a depth of [-] meters, protruding ten meters above the sea. Beautiful buildings were built on the stone pillars, and bridge-like streets were connected between these buildings. Only then did Haiyinsi City, which is the envy of the elf world, be built.

The Naga Sea Clan in the endless sea regards this city of the Green Empire as a challenge to the Sea Clan. Every Naga Sea King is born, and in order to establish the supremacy of the Sea Clan, he will order some people who threaten the throne. The great lords of the Naga Sea Clan led an army to attack Haiyinsi City, so every time a new king of the Naga Sea Clan was born, there would be a protracted naval battle.

After hundreds of years of painstaking efforts, the Nanfeng Army stationed in Haiyinsi City built a nearly [-]-kilometer-long sea wall outside Haiyinsi City. The army's first line of defense.

The South Wind Legion has nearly a million troops in Haiyinsi City. It is said that there are 38 Constructed Knights under the command of Prince James, as well as a formation composed of nearly a hundred five-masted sailing ships and a giant floating ship. The sea is full of bed crossbows, catapults, and spear guns.In the past 20 years, Haiyinsi City has become more and more prosperous under the management of Prince James. Especially in the past ten years, Haiyinsi City has served as a trade port with the Haizu, and countless businessmen have poured into Haiyinsi City. Haiyinsi City brought a huge amount of tax revenue, and the South Wind Legion also benefited a lot from this huge amount of tax revenue. The most obvious thing is that all kinds of armaments have been completely new.

Huge economic benefits have made the logistics department of the Southwind Army the most complicated department among the many military departments. The three chief officers of the logistics department are Jacob Rogier, Donald Raleigh, and Chris Angelball. Germany.

Among the three chief officers, Chris represents the interests of His Majesty Charles, Jacob is elected by the lords of many planes in the Green Empire, and Donald is a confidant who was single-handedly promoted by Prince James. This Donald The Earl was born and bred in Haines City, and what Prince James admired most about him was that the interests of Haines City were above all else in his heart.

These three chiefs of the logistics department are in charge of the expenses of the millions of soldiers of the South Wind Army, and Prince James also has a lot of meaning in letting us visit Earl Donald Raleigh. On the one hand, he hopes to help us, on the other hand, I don't want to have any problems with the crossbow arrows in our hands, after all, they are relatively important military supplies.

……

Earl Donald Raleigh’s temporary residence in the imperial capital is located in the west of the third block. It is a three-story villa with an independent courtyard, not too far from the Royal Academy of Magic. This kind of villa is a bit like the house Helena rented for me. Clean and comfortable.

Prince James probably greeted Earl Donald. Earl Donald Raleigh was not at all surprised by our visit. When we stepped off the carriage, we saw an old man with gray sideburns sitting under the eaves of the villa. Looking carefully at an account book on the chair, Yingli told me quietly that he is Earl Donald Raleigh.

Earl Donald looked very similar to Felix in some respects. He was wearing a neat military uniform, his face had the determination of a soldier, and his eyes were rock-solid. No matter what decision, it is difficult for someone who will make a change.

He raised his head as if feeling something, and happened to see Yingli and me standing at the door.

When he saw Ying Li, he was in a daze, and his lips trembled slightly. Because of the magic perception, my five senses were extremely sharp, and even a slight movement could not escape my eyes. I felt that he saw Ying Li. There is always an indescribable emotion in his eyes.

"His Royal Highness is here, I am honored!" Earl Donald said to Ying Li Shili with one hand on his chest, and then nodded slightly to me.

Ying Li stood at the door, holding the hem of the long skirt with one hand, and bowed slightly to Earl Donald in return.

Earl Donald invited us into the house. After we sat down, the cook brought hot tea and some exquisite refreshments. There were no polite words. After we sat down, we directly explained the purpose of our visit to Earl Donald. Earl Donald was silent. After a while, he asked me: "Do you have samples of crossbow arrows?"

I took out a box of black iron arrowheads with magic patterns printed on them from my magic pocket. The magic pattern circles on these black iron arrows failed. It was found that there was a layer of dark lines on the surface of the arrow tip.

He casually took out a black iron arrowhead from the wooden box, Earl Donald weighed the arrowhead in his hand, and asked me in surprise, "Is magic black iron mixed in these arrowheads?"

Seeing me nodding, he picked up the arrow again, put it near his mouth and bit it, and then asked me: "Since it is a hard black iron arrow, the quality is fine, but... it is necessary to engrave these fancy patterns on the arrow." Textures? This is not only flashy, but it will also increase the manufacturing cost of crossbow arrows. But if you can guarantee that the arrows sold to the logistics department are all crossbow arrows of this quality?"

Yingli and I looked at each other, nodded together, and said, "We promise."

Earl Donald said to me in a deep voice: "Because this is related to the safety of the soldiers on the sea, I have to say some ugly words in advance. Don't add inferior arrows to this, even if it is only once, I will You will also be kicked out of the ranks of suppliers!"

I nodded to show I got it.

His eyes softened slightly, and he said to me: "Then let's talk about the price. Although your black iron arrows are beautifully made, I won't buy them because of the beautiful dark patterns on your crossbow bolts." And for an extra copper plate, I can only buy this kind of black iron arrowhead at the price of ordinary black iron arrowheads..."
