my age of magic

Chapter 1476 26. Dual cultivation of magic and martial arts
The few of us sat on the roof of Prince Hitt's house, which is a very strong roof made of shells and sand.

A small terrace was built on the roof, small but elegant.

Prince Hitt's yard is located on a high ground, so he has a wide view, and he can see a group of Janna warriors passing by on the street not far ahead, appearing to be in a hurry, squeezing the Janna laborers transporting weapons to the side of the road.

Prince Hitt stood on the roof and saw the commotion in the street in the distance, so he asked his servants, "Go and see, what happened?"

The servant of Janna who was waiting outside the yard obviously didn't know the reason. Hearing Prince Hitt's question, he ran to the street to inquire about the situation.

This is the industrial area of ​​Haiyuan City, because it straddles a river of magma, so the geographical location is a bit remote, and the metallurgical and forging industry of the Janna people is not developed, so the magic mask in this area is not too big, here Most of the people who live there are Jana people who work in blacksmith workshops.

Before that, I didn't know that I would meet Prince Hitt when I came to Haiyuan City, and I didn't prepare a gift. Prince Hitt invited us to sit on the roof terrace, so I took the opportunity to take out some El City specialty golden cider, To Prince Hitt.

Sitting on a round stool polished by a huge conch, Ying Li looked up at Prince Hitt and asked him: "Ambassador Galle brought the news of Princess Ariel's death, and gave me a piece of her The magic crystal left by Calaiga Island. I know that Janna people rarely get sick, and she is still so young, so I want to know how she died?"

"You actually saw Ariel?" Hitt said in surprise: "The royal family has been blocking these news, and no one is allowed to visit."

When the Jana people rest, they don't lie on the bed or sit on the chair. They are used to lying on the huge fish tail in the huge shell, or sitting upright, or lying on their sides, with one hand propped on the side of the face , so that the body will be relaxed.

Ying Li nodded and said: "I saw Ariel in the underground ice room of the palace, she was lying motionless in the coffin, her face was calm, there was no scar on her body, and her appearance could still maintain the same as before. , isn't she the most beloved princess of the Endless Sea?"

I have seen the appearance of Princess Ariel in the image of the magic crystal. To me, her almost perfect appearance is more like the face of a star who walked out of some hospital in the memory of the previous life. It is very beautiful. But it also makes people worry that that beauty will collapse at any time.

But I didn't see Ariel's real face lying in the ice coffin. To me, she was just a dead mermaid.

Regarding Yingli's question, Prince Hitt thought about it seriously, let himself fall into deep memories, and he said to us:
"I don't know exactly what happened. The last time I saw her was at her grand wedding three years ago. I remember that the Seven Sea Lords were riding in a gorgeous carriage pulled by eight sea dragons. He came to Haiyuan City with the crown of silence, the most precious treasure of the Seven Realms Sea. He is the youngest king of the Jana clan. Many Janna mermaids went to the Seven Realms Sea alone just to see him. Treat it as a big event and record it on ancient stone tablets."

Just listening to Hitt’s story, I feel that Ariel’s wedding must be very luxurious, and then think about the wedding I gave to Yingli and Qige, it was so simple that there were no witnesses, no gorgeous carriages, and no expensive jewelry. There are no relatives and friends to watch the ceremony, and there is no exquisite food. I feel ashamed when I think about it.

Then I heard Prince Hitt say:
"Since then, the most beautiful princess of the Jana Sea Clan has become the queen loved by the people of the Seven Seas. I heard that Ariel has been working hard for the living conditions of the Jana tribes near the outer sea in recent years. She called on the Janna tribes at the edge of the sea to take up weapons to resist the invasion of sea beasts, she once personally led the Royal City Guards to hunt down the giant electric eels in the Sola Trench, and she was slightly injured for this."

Hearing what Prince Hit said, it seems that Ariel has a high reputation among the Jana Sea tribe and is also loved by the Jana people.

"So, even though Princess Ariel's life in the Seven Realms Sea is wonderful, it's not as bad as we guessed." I sighed, a little envious of Ariel's rich life.

"Then why did she want to end her life?" Ying Li didn't understand this.

Prince Hit took out a piece of magic paper written in Janna language and put it on the table, and said: "The news from the Seven Realms Sea is said to be because of the relationship between Ariel and King Kazbin. There is a crisis, and recently King Kazbin has two new favorites, which caused Ariel to make some extreme moves."

I picked up the piece of magic paper, which seemed to be a newspaper similar to the imperial capital.

But I couldn't understand what was written on it. Justus, who was standing behind me, took the newspaper and read it very seriously.

The Janna sea clan is not monogamous. For a Janna king who rules a large sea area, it is not uncommon for him to have many wives.

"That's what the rumor says, but I don't quite believe it." Prince Hit rubbed his forehead and said to us again: "I've been thinking, will Ariel really die because of this? She is endless The princess of the sea, the queen of the Seven Realms Sea, she is a very proud person, and she cannot be crushed by these things. According to her character, she will definitely get back her own happiness. She is the kind of person with courage Faced with any difficulties, as long as it is what she wants to do, she will be able to do it well, she is the kind of perfectionist who is a little paranoid."

It's hard to say anything about relationships, I thought to myself.

I remembered something, so I asked Prince Hitt: "By the way, Prince Hitt, do you know where Agalega Island is?"

Prince Hit frowned, and did not answer immediately, but turned and walked into the room, then took out a scroll, and unfolded it on the roof floor.

It was a chart of the endless sea, which described the distribution of the Janna tribe in detail. He searched for a long time on this chart, and finally found some annotations at the edge of the chart that were barely visible. The text is densely written.

Prince Hitt asked me: "Do you want to go there? It generally refers to a coral reef island close to the west coast of the eastern continent. It is far away from our city of the abyss. There is a disputed sea area. Later, the Jana tribe took refuge in the Lord of the Seven Seas and became a subsidiary country of the Seven Seas."

He pointed to the area with his finger, then drew a large oval outside the map, and said to us: "This is the eastern continent."

Pointing to an area to the south between the two, he said, "This is the Sea of ​​Seven Realms. The reason why it is called the Sea of ​​Seven Realms is that it borders seven land boundaries. They are the Roland Continent, the Eastern Continent, and the Kan Sea." Duras and Xiansai, in addition, the sea of ​​the seven realms is also connected to the endless sea, the frozen sea and the twin seas, so it is called the sea of ​​the seven realms. We Jannas think that the sea of ​​the seven realms is It is the center of the main plane of Roland Continent, and the World Stone is hidden in a corner of the Sea of ​​Seven Realms. Unfortunately, I don't have a comprehensive map of Roland Continent."

The common sense in the eyes of Prince Hitt opened a door in my mind, allowing me to understand the general outline of the Roland continent. It turns out that this continent, which is called the main plane by our empire, actually has such a vast and vast world .

I pointed to the edge of the map and said to Prince Hitt: "Is this the island of Agalega? Did you fight with King Kazbin, the seventh king of the sea?"

Hearing my question, Prince Hit curled his lips, with a look of disdain in his eyes, and said, "Who will fight there? It's close to the Eastern Continent. No matter how conflicted we Jannas are, we won't let those orcs fight." Just stand aside and watch the show with the elves, we Janna would not do such stupid things."

"Then, could it be the birthplace of King Kazbin, the seventh Lord of the Sea?" I asked again tentatively.

Hearing what I said, Prince Hit shook his head again and again and said, "How is it possible!"

"How could King Kazbin live in such a dangerous place, and there is nothing to dispute in that sea area."

"Not to mention the many surrounding islands, they are also close to the coastline of the eastern continent. Not only are they competing for territory, but also the orcs from the eastern continent often appear. As the crown prince of the Seven Realms Sea, Kazbin cannot live in such a dangerous place. As far as I know, Kazbin has only left the capital of the Seven Worlds once, and that was when he married Ariel."

I heard Prince Hit say this, so I said casually: "This is strange, who do you think Ariel is talking about?"

"What did she say?" Prince Hit asked me curiously.

The image in that magic crystal has been lingering in my mind all the time. The lonely Janna mermaid sitting on the cliff is exactly like the Ariel I knew in the city of the abyss. Two different people, one full of sensibility, the other full of rationality.

"It's nothing, I just said that she had an appointment with someone to watch the sunset on the island of Agalega." I shook my head and said.

Who is Princess Ariel dating?Who else, if not King Kazbin?
Let us ponder the secrets about Princess Ariel.

Prince Hit sighed softly, and said with emotion: "She is such a proud Janna, but it is a pity that she died so early. Hey! No one in our generation of Janna can surpass Ariel Alright."

……

The city of the abyss seems to be always shining with starlight overhead, and those starlight is also the light from the top of the magic mask,
The higher the magic mask, the higher the status of the Janna people living inside, and the more refined the buildings inside the magic mask. In the city of the abyss, the highest magic mask is the Janna King's palace.

Inside each magic mask, there will be a magic tower that provides light for the Jannas, and a hot light cluster is ignited on the tower.

The lower the magic mask, the less such magic towers are built.

Of course, the blacksmith workshop is a very special existence.

"Have you thought about leaving here?" Ying Li took the lead in breaking the silence between us and asked Prince Hitt.

Prince Hitt, who was lying in the shell, put his fish tail outside, and the shell looked like a big bathtub.

He said to Yingli with a wry smile, "Where else can I go?"

"The Seven Realms Sea, or the Frozen Sea, the Gemini Sea, or the Grimm Empire?"

"Once you leave the Endless Sea privately, you will bear the name of a traitor, and it is impossible to come back after leaving here."

"The Jana people have fought civil wars for so many years, and the blue scales on their bodies are the imprint of the Endless Sea Kings. No matter where they go, there are enemies hiding in the dark, and they live in fear every day. It is even more impossible on the outer sea. , There are countless high-level deep-sea monsters entrenched there, and I am not a legendary powerhouse, so I have no way to survive there." Prince Hitt said.

It seems that he has also considered this matter very specifically, otherwise he would have said so much without replying all at once.

"You can go back to the Green Capital with us, there is a beautiful Weiyang Lake, you will like it." Ying Li extended an invitation to him, perhaps this is what His Majesty Charles hopes, after all, Prince Hitt's body is flowing. The blood of the Na royal family.

Prince Hit was not interested in going to the imperial capital of the Green Empire, so he asked Ying Li: "What about in the future? Marry an imperial girl, will anyone be willing to marry a down-and-out Prince Jana?"

Ying Li didn't think much about it, and said casually, "That depends on whether you like human girls more or Janna mermaids more..."

"Do I have any other options?" Prince Hitt asked meaningfully.

Ying Li quickly said: "Of course, in our side, many nobles of the Grimm Empire also like the Janna Mermaid very much. In fact, you don't have to live in the imperial capital, you can live in the coastal cities of the Grimm Empire, Hai Yinsi City, Ignace City, Qiyan Port City, Xinghai City... These cities are very beautiful, or you can also go to the Vashj plane to see, the whole plane is an endless sea, almost no land, just scattered all over the world. Just some islands."

Speaking of the Green Empire, Ying Li talked more.

Seeing that Prince Hit was a little moved, Yingli said, "Leave here! Start a new life over there, no matter where you go, it will be much better than the current situation."

"This matter needs to be well planned." Prince Hitt said with some hesitation.

We've chatted here long enough with Prince Hitt, and Yingli pulls me up to say goodbye to Prince Hitt.

Before leaving, she said to Prince Hitt:

"Okay, but if you want to leave Haiyuan City, you can come to me anytime."

……

After leaving the blacksmith workshop, our group walked on the street.

"Jijia, what kind of princess do you think Ariel is?" Li Lazer asked with my hand.

Maybe this is the city of the abyss, no Jana knows us, that's why Yingli is so bold.

She continued to say to me: "She seems to be a powerful Janna warrior, but the great Janna wizard who worshiped her on the high platform of the underground ice room seems to be her teacher..."

Yingli has seen Ariel lying in the ice coffin, and probably has a very intuitive feeling for her. Just as Prince Hit said, Princess Ariel is an extraordinary Janna warrior.

Since the mention of the Grand Wizard Janna sitting in front of the skull crystal ball, it also reminded us... so I said:
"So... she's also a Janna wizard?"
