my age of magic

Chapter 1204 8. Prince James' entrustment
The lakeside garden in early spring is still a bit sluggish, the flower pond is full of blue hyacinths, and clusters bloom quietly against the cool southeast wind.

The air by the lake is very humid, and the blue waves of Weiyang Lake not far away are rippling. Standing by the window of James’s study on the third floor of the castle, you can’t see Qige’s small island by the lake, but you can see it. A few kilometers away, there is a newly built dock on the pier by the lake, and ten five-masted sailboats are lined up in the dock.

I can't figure out why it is necessary to build such a large dock in the Weiyang Lake on the top of Mount Majaro.

Le Die was sitting on the swing, wearing a crystal lion leather armor with a thorn tail. It seemed that ladies from aristocratic families in the imperial capital had a soft spot for this style of tight leather armor. Helena also particularly liked wearing the crystal lion leather armor with a thorn tail.

Her long golden hair is as smooth as the most expensive brocade under the sunlight, and Le Die's slender waist has the softness of an elf girl.

The sub-dragon has entered the adult stage from the juvenile stage. It is curled up beside Le Die. There are mottled cracks on the huge head, the pupils of the eyes are golden, and the surface of the huge body is covered with cyan dragon scales. , the huge fleshy wings are folded behind, and the long dragon tail is like a giant python.

A simple knight spear with a spiral pattern stood beside the swing, a knight light shield and an exquisite elf sword leaned against Yaron's abdomen, and the hilt of the elf sword was wrapped with a bandage.

Le Die squinted her eyes and quietly looked at the dark blue surface of Weiyang Lake, and slightly pursed the corners of her mouth, as if she had fallen into a deep memory.

The garden seemed very quiet, no one disturbed her, she seemed to be immersed in her own world.

……

Prince James stood by the window, sighed lightly, looked away, looked at Yingli and me and said, "She has always had a thorn in her heart."

I sneaked a glance at Ying Li, Ying Li looked bewildered, apparently he didn't know what Le Die had in mind.

The outline of Ledie's face is very similar to that of James, which makes her beautiful face look a bit heroic. If she can be more like Mrs. Manda, then she will have the power to make the elves like Lucia. The beauty she is jealous of, she is like a blue hyacinth blooming quietly in the cold wind.

Prince James kindly put his hand on my shoulder, and the other hand wrapped around Yingli's slender waist. He was a kind father at this time, and he led us to the study room. Yingli and I Go all the way to the end of the castle corridor and find a round arched gate at the end of the castle.

The middle-aged butler came up from behind us, and he opened the round arched door at the end of the corridor.

This is an empty practice room. The room is very large. There is a thick oak floor inside. Zhang thatch covered it, only a short section of the stone seat below was exposed.

Walking into this rather dignified training room, looking at the scattered sword marks on the thick floor, one can imagine the fierce scene of sword aura in the room.

Ying Li and I were attracted by the sculpture covered with thatch in the center. It seems that Ying Li rarely came here. Her eyes told me that she didn't know what was under the thatch.

Prince James walked into the practice room, glanced at the middle-aged butler, and pointed to the tarpaulin in front of him. The middle-aged butler immediately understood and walked to the front of the statue, reaching out to remove the tarpaulin covering it.

With a sound of "wow", the thatch cloth fell in response.

A three-meter-high miniature statue of the Spider-Man Warlord appeared in front of Ying Li and me. This spider-man statue was carved lifelike. It held a five-meter-long black iron spear in both hands and stood domineeringly on the stone. On the seat, the eight spider legs and huge abdomen made him look like a steam train, and the shiny black armor on his body covered his whole body.

"Spider-man warrior?" Ying Li asked this question because he had seen a spider-man warrior in Xinliu Valley.

"No, this is the statue of the Spider Warlord, but this statue is only one-third the size of the real Spider Warlord!" I said to Ying Li.

Yingli heard me tell about how terrifying the spider warlord, the strongest among the Nibru tribe spiders in the Yero plane, was. Standing in the practice room, she couldn't help but take a step back, and then carefully Take a look at this statue of the Spider Warlord.

I turned around the statue, only to find that on this statue of the Spider-Man Overseer, every weak spot on the Spider-Man's body was painted with red paint. I counted carefully, and there were a total of 27 places, these 27 places of weakness marked by red paint are almost all at the seams of his black armor, and some places are not even considered weaknesses at all.

Prince James told Yingli and me: "She has been practicing knightly skills in front of this statue in the practice room every day very diligently recently, and she also visited a retired instructor of the Royal Gripen Knights last month. Learning the combat skills of air combat, she trained so hard, probably because she wanted to return to the plane of Yero one day and kill a spider warlord with her own hands."

"Because of the dragon?" I asked Prince James.

Prince James nodded.

I stretched out my hand and rubbed my forehead, I didn't expect Le Die to have such an obsession, it was really nerve-wracking.

I have been in contact with the Spider Warlord several times, and I know how powerful it is, so I said: "Even if a strong person with the power of the second rank faces a Spider Warlord alone, I am afraid that he will not have the power to fight! "

Prince James looked up at the spider warlord statue, frowned and said: "She practices martial arts so diligently every day, and she has never been as serious as she is now, which also makes me and Manda feel that Le Die is the same. I grew up suddenly overnight, after all, the South Wind Legion needs someone to take my place..."

Having said that, he paused.

Then he said: "It is said that among the members of the Angibald royal family, no one is more suitable to take over my position than Wales, but the situation inside the royal family is too complicated. Charlie will not let Wales have the opportunity to control this huge army. Yes, it is impossible for me to casually give up the position of commander of the South Wind Army to someone else, if Le Die has a chance to control this lion, there is nothing wrong with it."

It turned out that Prince James wanted to hand over the South Wind Army to Le Die. I didn't expect this. Thinking about Le Die's self-willedness, I don't know if he will restrain himself after taking over the South Wind Army.

Prince James said again: "It's just that she took revenge on the spider warlord, but she never told Manda and me. This seed of hatred is buried in her heart, which will make her fight against the spider warlord." Before the Human Overseer, he used revenge as a spur to motivate himself, filling his life with resentment and hatred."

He sighed, and continued: "This is exactly what Manda and I do not want to see. We hope that she will have a lifetime of happiness like her name, instead of living in painful hatred."

People in the imperial capital said that Prince James doted on Princess Yingli, and now it seems that Prince James also has the same paternal love for Princess Ledie.

Prince James looked at me and said, "So I want to help her get that thorn out of her heart."

When I heard him say that, I suddenly understood what he was thinking.

Prince James sighed again, and said: "If I enter the Hierro plane with the Constructed Knights of the South Wind Legion, this matter will become very simple, but Charles talked to me a few days ago. , He wants me to bring these constructed knights stationed in the imperial capital to settle in Ahn Qirador this month, so I have no way to help Le Die to do this, which is why I asked you to come here."

I thought to myself: It turns out that the Southern Wind Army has been resting in the imperial capital for such a long time because Prince James wanted to lead the Constructed Knights to fight in the Hierro plane of the Duke of Samoyed, but His Majesty Charles wanted Prince James To Ahn'Qirador.

Didn't it mean that the commander of the Aix Army in Strange Rock City and the Royal Knights led by His Royal Highness Charlie are both in Anqiladuo?Didn't it mean that the five major mithril mines have been recovered?Why do you want Prince James' army to go there?

If James said this, it meant that he couldn't go to the Hierro plane.

So, right under the statue of the Spider-Man Overseer, I dared to ask Prince James, "You want me to take Le Die into the Yerro plane to hunt down a Spider-Man Overseer?"

Prince James shook his head with a smile, and said to me: "I've heard people say that you hunted and killed the Spider Warlord in the plane of Hierro. It's no secret."

I was a little stunned. It turned out that Prince James knew about these things a long time ago.

Prince James added: "The orc female warrior next to you, isn't the magic pattern armor on her body made of the soft skin of the spider warlord's abdomen?"

I nodded, hesitated and shook my head again.

I guess maybe they knew that I had successfully hunted and killed the Spider Warlord, so they misunderstood that the Spider Warden was a soft persimmon that was pinched casually.

I said to him with a solemn face: "James, it is precisely because I have personally experienced the ambush of the spider warlord twice that I know how dangerous this matter is. I am not sure how to protect Le Die in battle." Safety."

Seeing how serious I was, James smiled gratifiedly and said, "Haha, I didn't tell you to bring those orc followers into the Yerro plane to help Le Die hunt and kill the spider warlord. If I If you do that, Yingli might hate me for the rest of your life."

Ying Li stood aside, blushing slightly, and argued in a low voice, "Where do I have it!"

Prince James turned his head and said to me again: "Ji Jia, I know that you experienced more than a month of experience in the Hierro plane last summer, and you should be very familiar with the environment there, and I heard Ying Li talk about it. , you and your followers have been planning to build a small town in the Hierro plane, so I hope you can contact your followers in the Hierro plane and ask them to take care of it in the Hierro plane Let me know Le Die, if it is convenient, provide her with as much information as possible about the situation in the Yerro plane and the spider warlord."

It turned out to be like this. I was about to agree, but I heard Prince James say: "I will send two strong men and a team of elite knights to follow Le Die into the Hierro plane. Help her kill a spider warlord and return to the imperial capital as soon as possible."

After all, he is His Royal Highness the Prince of the Green Empire, and there are probably many second-rank powerhouses serving under him!

It turned out that I was just needed as a guide.

I said: "Ah! So..."

Actually, I want to say that I have a team of barbarian slaves in Tanton City that can help Le Die hunt the Spider Overseer.

Prince James waved his hand to me and said, "You don't have to rush to answer me, just think about it slowly."

"There is nothing to consider, I can promise you now." I said.

He probably thought I wanted to put it off and asked me to think again.

Prince James' eyes lit up when he heard me readily agree.

Immediately afterwards I said: "However, there is one thing I must tell you. My followers are currently concentrated in Tanton City on the plane of Yero, and I still have a small team currently working for the small team in the Trum area. The location of the town, Le Die and your Constructed Knight team will only come to Tanton City, and the information my followers have will be of some help to Le Die."

Prince James knows that my followers are in the Hierro plane, but he doesn't know how many followers I have.

I said: "Of course, if it is in the Trum area, I can also help Ledie in other aspects, such as the movements of those Nibru tribe spiders, etc. And no matter how the situation there deteriorates, As long as Le Die stays in Tanton City, I am sure to ensure her safety."

Prince James said in surprise: "Oh? You have such a certainty?"

Then he added: "...No matter what, it's great of you to agree."

Hearing that I agreed, he seemed to have settled a concern in his heart, and led Yingli and me out of the practice room.

James seemed to be very satisfied with my performance. He smiled at me as he walked and said, "Today I invited the two of you to have lunch together. Apart from talking about Le Die, I also heard from Yingli that Do you want to build a small town there because you own a large territory in the Hierro plane?"

In fact, the original reason for agreeing to the Duke of Samoyed to build a small town in the Trum area was to buy the land in the Trum area.

This is Qige's idea. The premise for her to break off the engagement with Wales to marry me is that I must have the status of Earl, so as not to receive too much resistance.

But now that the situation in the plane of Hierro has deteriorated to this point, and I have some ideas of my own in the plane of Hierro, the establishment of a small town in Trum is not just a promise.

Just as I was thinking about it, Prince James said to me again: "If it's just that, you might as well go to the Manda plane to have a look, it is also a good rich plane, if you are willing to go there to develop, I will I can give you a small town, and after you graduate from the Royal Academy of Magic, you can go there to become a consul and slowly develop your strength, or you can also join the South Wind Army to train for two years after graduation, and wait for you to earn money. If you earn enough merits to be promoted to a Marquis, you can become the lord of a city."

Are all aristocratic families so grand?

Noah tried every means to give me an island city. I know it was because of the golden sea ship and the city on the back of Mr. Ramos, the mountain dragon turtle. Louis and Noah probably thought that I helped them pacify Vaschi. The rebellion has opened up a new situation, so I want to give me an island city.

And what about Prince James?It should be because I married Yingli.

I touched my nose with some guilty conscience, glanced at Yingli, and then politely refused to James: "Uh... James, I want to make my own way."

Although Prince James was a little surprised, he didn't mean to force me, he just said: "Well, I won't force you, but if you change your mind at any time, remember to come to me."

Although I did not accept this great gift from Prince James, I still have to thank you.

"Well, thank you, James."

When I came out of Prince James' lakeside estate, it was already [-] o'clock in the evening.Mrs. Manda also cooked elf scones for us, which are scones with a vanilla flavor, which are very delicious.

The magic caravan I took drove into the lakeside avenue, and I leaned on the soft leather sofa and said to Ying Li: "You should pay more attention to her."

Ying Li blushed unnaturally, and complained to me: "I know this, but I didn't do enough. After Nirvana, my actual age is three years younger than Le Die. When I stand in front of her, I always How embarrassing it is to have the mentality of an older sister but look up at her like a younger sister..."
