my age of magic

Chapter 1153 256. On the Ski Resort
Some people who are used to living in El City may not know what is so special about El City.

They wake up every day listening to the bell ringing from the clock tower, and only when the sunset will remember that it’s time for dinner again. The whole city is covered with snow as thick as cotton wool. The thick snow can be seen everywhere in every corner. The old snow has not completely melted, and the new snow will fall again.

In this way, day after day, year after year, the city of El in my eyes changes with the changes of the seasons, always showing the beauty of its own style, but when I want to tell my friends about the city of El Fortunately, I can't tell.

In the morning, Noah and Shirley wanted to stroll around El City, and asked me where El City was fun. Unfortunately, I couldn't give any good advice. For this reason, I asked Tracy for advice. , Tracy can't tell what's so fun about El City.

Nancy gave us some suggestions. If you want to see the prosperity of El City, you might as well go to the central street of El City. It is the central axis of El City, and it is the busiest and busiest place in El City. There are many shops of all kinds.

If you want to find a quiet place with a good view, you can go to Steins College to have a look. The architecture of the fighting arena in the college is very distinctive, and now the school is on holiday, so the college is very clean.

The War College in Central Mountain is also worth visiting. The environment there is very good. It is an area where nobles live concentratedly. Standing on the municipal square, you can have a panoramic view of the entire city of El.

……

In the morning, Noah and I were not walking together.

I went to visit my teachers and some friends in the School of Magic. Noah didn't run around with me. He invited Cindy as their guide and took Shirley Newman to play in the city of El.

Miss Cindy is no longer the firewood girl at the beginning. Cindy gradually has the outline of Nanxi, her thin cheeks gradually become plump, her long golden hair is braided with long big braids, and when she smiles, she She likes to squint her eyes, like a sunflower in autumn, Cindy is not a girl with a pretty face, and even has a little pink freckles on her cheekbones, but it doesn't make people feel ugly at all.

Tracy complained to me that since Lynn had this new daughter, she gave her half of the love again, which made Tracy a little bit crazy, but because Cindy always quietly gave Tracy Washing underwear and cleaning boots made it impossible for Tracy to speak harshly to Cindy.

I made an appointment with Noah to have the most delicious food in El City tonight.

I remember that when I was in the imperial capital, Noah invited me to eat a tribal orc-style barbecue, but I think that apart from the elegant environment and lifelike murals in that high-end restaurant, there is nothing to praise. Although the barbecue is delicious, But it is not the taste of Pai Highlands.Bobby is naturally very familiar with the delicacies in El City, because Bobby is a foodie by nature. Teacher Flender once said: If he can use one-third of his obsession with food on learning magic, Then he must be a good magician.

If Marvin hadn't lost an arm in Xin Willow Valley, maybe he would also be an excellent magician.

However, his current life is not bad. He is the youngest and most promising magic merchant in El City. His magic grocery store has opened branches in other cities in the Northern Province. He has just graduated from the Academy of War Magic. A piece of property that belongs to him, and because Marvin is missing an arm, he does not need to serve in the military. For some magician nobles like Marvin, there are still many nobles in El City who are willing to give their daughters married to him.

Spei studied at Steins College and is a female swordsman. Her family background is very ordinary, but because of her relationship with Marvin in Xinliu Valley, she has been by Marvin's side ever since. Whispering together, you will feel that their life is actually quite sweet.

……

Yingli and I sat side by side, Yingli quietly held my hand, our hands were covered by the large white lace cuffs, Yingli's eyes wandered outside the glass window, as if admiring The snow scene outside the window, Katerina sat on the other side of me, but she wanted to chat with Becky, so she switched places with Helena.

As soon as Helena sat down, she took the initiative to hold her arm. Perhaps she was used to being the focus of everyone's attention, so she was not afraid of other people's eyes.

The magic caravan was parked next to the ski resort on the northern slope of the central mountain, and from a distance, young men and women could be seen rushing down from the slope on their skis.

Every year, after the beginning of winter, the first snow covers the north slope of the central mountain, and the temporary ski resort on the north slope becomes a practice ground for beginners.

Before spring comes, the snow on the north slope will generally not melt, and the slope on the north slope is gentle, which happens to be the best place for beginner skiers to practice skiing. There is an unwritten rule in the north slope ski resort, that is, as long as After getting a little proficient in skating, then the venue here must be given up to other beginners.

Since I brought my skis to El City, skiing has become an escape skill that every resident of El City must learn.

In the wild snow, if you encounter a barbarian, the success rate of skiing is the highest. Of course, the premise is that you need to be on the mountain. As long as you step on the skis and dive down the slope, there is no companion to intercept it. It is generally difficult for the barbarian to chase. superior.

Noah and Shirley agreed with me to buy two pairs of skis at the Orianna Magic Store on Central Avenue, and then go to the ski resort on the north slope of Central Mountain to practice skiing. In Seoul City, but the business that really makes snowboards beautiful, light and easy to use is precisely the Orianna Magic Store.

Now Orianna magic has become its own industrial system, there is an advanced magic academy for cultivating magic talents, there is a magic research institute for researching magic puppets, there is also a magic workshop for making magic items, and finally it spreads all over the Grimm Empire. magic shop.

Orianna magic not only monopolizes magical tools such as humanoid magic puppets and prosthetic limbs, but also extends its tentacles to other fields.

In El City, the skis from the Orianna Magic Store are the most famous and the best to use, but if you want to buy a pair of skis from the Orianna Magic Store, ordinary people cannot afford such expensive expenses.

However, Noah is no ordinary person.

Regardless of Bobby and Marvin, the former is a big fat man with a round belly, and the latter is a disabled person who has lost an arm. The skiing skills of the two are quite good. A few of us walked out of the magic caravan , Bobby said with a smile: "I haven't been here for a long time, and I have almost forgotten my previous skiing skills."

Marvin sneered, and said to Bobby: "Why do I hear people say that there is a son of a big slave owner in El City, who fell in love with a pure-looking priest apprentice in the temple, and often went to Mount Etia Go skiing in the temple? Did I get it wrong?"

Bobby was not annoyed when Ma Wen revealed it with a single sentence, but he just pouted and said to Mar Wen: "The wedding between Senior Benjamin and Priest Mia, I found that marrying a priestess as a wife is definitely a very cool thing. "

I was a little surprised and asked, "Is senior Benjamin married?"

Bobby said: "Ah! He is now the son of the consul of El City, and his status in El City is not ordinary. The wedding will be held in winter."

Tracy's letter had mentioned this matter, and it turned out that Senior Benjamin was married.

……

A group of us walked into the ski resort on the north slope of Central Mountain, and saw a group of young men and women sitting on the edge of the ski resort changing their shoes. We saw that their tight warm leather jackets were covered with ice and snow. Obviously, they had just finished skiing. Everyone was excited. The emotions have not subsided yet, and while changing shoes, they are talking about skiing enthusiastically.

These young people are much younger than us. When someone saw Marvin and Bobby, they immediately stood up respectfully to say hello, and said, "Hello senior."

Bobby told me that these young men were all freshmen at the Junior War College this year, using the winter break to practice skiing.

At the beginning of the year, I left El City, so naturally I didn't know this group of freshmen from the War College.

At this time, I happened to see Ann Zimmerman in the crowd. He was wearing a robe of a black magic apprentice. He grew taller and thinner. He looked at me calmly, surprised.

Standing beside Ann were two beautiful noble girls, talking to Ann with admiration, as if they didn't want to pay attention to others.

I smiled gently at An, stood in the crowd here, and waved to him.

Seeing me waving to him, Ann's eyes lit up, her brows stretched, she glanced at the noble girl beside her, hesitated for a moment, then stretched out her hand and pulled the two of them out of the crowd, ran to me, and said to me happily: "Good luck!" Brother Jia, when did you come back?"

"A magic airship arrived in El City yesterday evening." I looked at the handsome Ann and said with a smile. "According to the practice of the Academy of War Magic, you have to call me senior."

"Senior Jijia." The gloomy look in An's eyes has been much less, and it seems that the life in El City is slowly healing him, dispelling the shadow left in the cellar of Zimmerman Manor in his heart.

The two noble girls beside him greeted me obediently as well. They seemed to be two well-educated noble girls, and when Ann said my name, surprise flashed in their eyes. Looks like I've heard my name from somewhere.

Thinking about the relationship with Alia, when I faced Ann, I couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, but I calmed down, and then said to An: "I wanted to go to your place tomorrow, but Mrs. Alia asked me to take it with me. I gave you many gifts, I didn't expect you to be at the ski resort."

I introduced these friends around me to Ann.

In the distance, Ann's companions were calling him.

So, I waved my hand to him and said, "Wait for me at home tomorrow morning. I'll go find you and see how you're doing in magic this semester."

Ann said happily, "Okay."

Then he said goodbye to me and returned to the young men and women with the two noble girls. A group of people left the North Slope Ski Resort talking and laughing.

……

When I saw Noah, Shirley Newman, and Cindy, I thought I saw a snow monster on the top of the snow mountain. I have never seen someone who learned to ski and made himself so embarrassed, especially Cindy also looked panting and exhausted. It was hard to imagine what they were doing on the ski slopes.

I remember that Tracy taught Cindy how to ski. Tracy used her own savings to buy a pair of very good skis for Cindy. The ski skills are well practiced.

At this time, I saw three people whose clothes were covered with ice and snow, standing on the snowy ground on the north slope,
I asked Cindy strangely: "Why are you in such a mess? The North Slope Ski Resort is the most suitable driving range for beginners..."

Cindy blushed slightly and bowed her head in silence.

At this time, Shirley Newman said angrily: "It's not because Noah, just after learning a little, felt that he had mastered all the essentials of skiing. He insisted on rushing down from the top of the slope. Hold on to the speed, if Cindy hadn't caught up with him from behind and grabbed him, he might have stuck into the snowdrift in front like a fork!"

"Hey, in front of Jijia's friends, please keep my image a little bit." Noah protested to Shirley: "Didn't you agree with the proposal of rushing down from the top of the slope?"

"Who would have thought that your technique is so bad that I would also wrestle with you? It's really embarrassing!" Shirley complained to Noah dissatisfied.

Shirley Newman's personal maid ran from a distance, holding a brush in her hand, walked up to Noah and the others, and hurriedly cleaned up the icicles on the three of them. These icy slags must be cleaned up in time. Hanging on the body for too long will make the leather jacket hard.

I didn't expect Noah and Shirley Newman's athletic talents to be so bad. At the beginning, the Tauren Luka and Kalantso learned what they had learned in the wild. It took only half a day to walk freely in the snow on snowboards. Alright, I rubbed my hands together and said to Noah: "That's all for today's practice, but it seems that your skiing skills still need to be gradually improved. I'm afraid you won't be able to join my hunting barbarian team tomorrow. Wait." Now that you are proficient at skiing, I will help you find the best Falcon team in El City."

Noah showed a bitter face, and said to me: "Jijia, what do you mean by that, is it because you are not planning to bring us in tomorrow's hunting operation?"

I slapped the icicles off his shoulders, put my arms around his shoulders and said, "If you really want to go to the wild with us, then ride a magic stick, otherwise you won't be able to keep up with us."

Noah hesitated for a moment, glanced at Shirley, then at Yingli, and asked me, "Will Yingli also stay in El City?"

I said to Noah: "Of course they have to stay. They also want to practice some skiing skills. Don't worry. I'll just take people to the suburbs to investigate the situation of those barbarians tomorrow. Although they can be heard from the taverns in the city Information from the outside, but we still need to go out and have a look in person.”

"Okay." Noah said reluctantly, and then he said to me excitedly: "Jijia, let me tell you, skiing is really a very interesting thing."

I said to Noah: "By the way, Noah, let me introduce you to some friends from El City, Bobby, Marvin, Spee, these two are Noah and Shirley Newman..."
