my age of magic

Chapter 745
The bright red silk cloth was blown by the wind, like a burning flame floating in the air.

It rolled in the air and was carried into the sky by the vortex in the heat flow. A spider warrior ran over in panic from under it. It was ignited all of a sudden, just for a moment, a blue flame burst out from its body, and in less than a second, it turned into ashes in the air, was blown away by the hot wind, and swept away. to higher skies.

The orc warriors lying on the stone roof saw the piece of red silk fluttering in the wind. One second before they were facing the heat wave, they sprayed corpse kerosene on the school grounds, and the next second they decisively closed the pipeline valve. He untied the water bag and poured a bag of cold water on the nozzle of the hot flamethrower, and a large amount of white water vapor burst out from the nozzle that was already red hot.

At the same time, such a large amount of water vapor came out from the roofs on the north side of the entire school grounds, completely covering the figures on the roofs. Little did they know that at this moment, those orcs spraying flames on the roofs had already jumped down quickly. And Yi [-] meters sprint speed ran to the tavern.

With my back on his back, Kalancuo rushed into the basement of the tavern behind those orc warriors.

I happened to see Qige stepping on a chair, kneeling on the only skylight in the basement, looking curiously at the school yard through a piece of transparent glass, standing behind her was the lizard maid Takama , at this moment Takama is carefully helping her to support the chair.

Qige looked back and saw me lying on Kalancuo's back with my arms around, my crooked black eyebrows were raised slightly, and those talking eyes suddenly became very lively, holding Takama's hand, He jumped down from the back of the chair lightly, walked in front of me, wrinkled his cute little nose, turned around me, saw that I was not injured, and unceremoniously stretched out his hand to pinch my ear, Pull me off Kalanzo's body.

"Hey, hey, do you really plan to stay on it forever?" Qige bit her lips with her snow-white teeth. There was a charming taste in that look, and that unruly and willful look returned to her. on her.

She is a dignified magic pharmacy lecturer in the classroom of the Royal Academy of Magic, and she is also a well-known scholar of magic pharmacy who conducts crazy experiments in the laboratory of the Imperial Academy of Magic. The fiancee of the Prince of Wales, the seventh heir to the empire, has many identities, and she can show different personalities on various occasions, but I know none of them are her own.

My memory of her still stays at the moment when we first met. At that time, she was slender and thin, wearing an ordinary long skirt. I called her Xiaochai Niu.

"Hey, can you be gentle? Be careful that my ear was pulled off by you!" I deliberately showed pain and yelled loudly. In fact, her soft, soft and snow-white hands just touched My ear is making a show.

Seeing me cooperating with her very knowledgeably, the corner of her mouth raised a smug smile.

At this time, Kalancuo got into the portal one step earlier, and she would never watch me and Qige fight like this.

The lizard maid Takama just stood aside, looking at us curiously, as if she couldn't understand the interaction between me and Qige, probably young men and women in the lizard tribe don't usually do this .

Only Katerina would keep laughing unscrupulously: "Giggle!"

Sure enough, now she is much more courageous than before, and she dared to laugh out loud in front of Qige.

Luka and the dwarf warrior Bernd walked in from behind. Bernd was startled for a moment, then immediately lowered his head knowingly and quickly stepped into the portal.

The tauren Luka didn't react so quickly. He looked for a moment in surprise, then covered a big hand in front of his eyes speechlessly, and then said to himself: "Oh oh oh! I didn't see anything, Bernd, Don’t you think so? Hey, wait for me, it turns out you can run so fast, hey, wait for me..."

Luka groped while talking, and walked into the portal.

Through the glass window on the top of the basement, separated by the flames and billowing smoke, I happened to see the spider warriors on the school field looking restless in the circle of fire. Without the suppression of the orc fighters' flame jets on the north side of the school field, they began to try to The north side continued to charge. At this time, a thin layer of ice inside the magic sealing box placed on the stone platform in the center of the school field finally completely melted. In front of the eyes of a spider warlord, there was a 'snap', and it fell apart...

There are layers of wooden frames that look like egg brackets inside, and there are coconut-sized fire phosphorus bombs sandwiched between those wooden frames. There are two layers, each with eight fire phosphorus bombs. There are a total of sixteen pieces in total. The most important thing is that the moment these fire phosphorus bullets are cracked in the magic sealing box, the magic circles on each fire phosphorus bullet are all activated, and the strong fire elemental breath begins to spread outward.

No matter how stupid the two spider warlords were, they knew they had fallen into a trap. With a roar, a phantom of a giant spider like a mountain appeared behind the spider warlords, and a dense black mist spread out from their bodies.

'Body Protection Qi'

I didn't dare to look any further, those fire phosphorus bombs were already on the verge of detonating, and I didn't dare to delay when I saw the last orc warrior also got into the portal.

"Hurry up and go in! Auntie, it will be too late." After I finished speaking, I suddenly hugged Qige, and then pulled her into the portal and entered the underground warehouse of Xinliu Valley.

Before I pulled Qige down the altar, Katerina and Takama stepped out of the portal in unison.

Seeing Katerina walking in with us, I turned to her and asked, "Katarina, you have given orders to Knight Disraeli and the quartermaster Felix, right?"

Her fluffy and soft long red hair danced like a flame with her footsteps.

Katerina pursed her lips slightly, like a blooming red rose, and she said to me: "Well, I told them about our plan myself, Lord Felix will send those who have no time to withdraw from the north city gate. The guards of Trum and the soldiers of the Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment who went out all hid in the warehouse on the cliff of Trum Mountain, there is enough space there, and there should be time."

"..."

I was dumbfounded and speechless for a moment. It turned out that the way they avoided the explosion of the fire phosphorus bomb was to transfer all the defenders on the north city wall to the cliff warehouse.When I think of the real power of the fire phosphorous bomb, I feel a little weak in my heart.

I muttered under my breath, "I hope that cave is strong enough!"

This sentence caused Katerina to laugh and ask me, as if she had heard such a funny joke, "Are you still worried that Mount Trum will collapse?"

I was about to answer Katerina's question when I heard Qige standing under the altar with her hands folded and shouting dissatisfiedly: "Why are you two still talking about me and me on the altar, why don't you come down?"

Katerina gave me a sweet smile, shrugged her shoulders, and immediately agreed: "Come."

She turned around and suddenly performed a 'leap', her body disappeared in front of me. At the same time, a not-so-regular void gap opened beside Qige, and Katerina's body flexibly slipped through it. Come out, standing obediently beside Qige, the orc warriors on the side were stunned by his agile and flexible body.

I can imagine what the orc warriors were thinking at this moment. They must be thinking: When they face such an assassin who can travel across time and space in a short distance, how will they deal with it? In addition, there is really no good way to deal with it, unless it is to wrap yourself like an iron bucket.

When I came to the underground cave again, I found that there are some changes here almost every day. The most obvious is the cave at the altar. There are no traces of the original natural cave at all. The cave wall here has been transformed by the dwarf Bernd. Just like the corridor, every ten meters away, there will be a pair of huge circular stone pillars with a diameter of more than two meters rising from the ground.

The cave wall between these stone pillars can no longer see the original style and appearance. This section is a wall more than three meters high made of granite slabs. There are copper oil lamps inserted on the wall, and the flames are burning inside. The area around the altar looks brightly lit, and it seems that the dwarves really have a wealth of underground fortification methods. This section of the cave has been decorated by Bernd, and it really looks like a corridor in an old castle.

Walking forward for a while, I actually saw two bronze-colored metal gates in front of me. These two gates are seven or eight meters high, and there are some exquisite reliefs on them, but the patterns of the reliefs are obviously very rough. It looks like It is the landform of eight hundred miles of mountains and rivers on the ground of Xinliu Valley.

There are two orc warriors standing on both sides of the bronze gate. Unexpectedly, Bernd built the altar section of the cave into a relatively independent space. With this bronze gate, I finally hid my biggest secret in Xinliu Valley in a stone house inside.

When we walked out of the stone gate, we were immediately stunned by the hot scene outside the stone gate. Countless torches were lit in the cave, and those natives from the Yero plane were scattered in the cave. They are doing the work of craftsmen. They are building walls with white granite slabs. The initial construction of huge stone pillars has been completed in this section of the rock cave. Now it is only necessary to build up the stone walls on both sides and pave the ground. On the bluestone slab.

Watching those indigenous people working hard, I felt completely subverted in my heart.

I have been busy with the battle in Trum recently, so I haven't paid attention to Xinliu Valley for a while, so I started to look carefully at the underground cave again. I asked the dwarf Bernd: In such a short time, Just remodel this place into this look, how did it do it.

Bernd proudly touched his big red nose, pretending to be mysterious and said to me: I will know later.

Later, Bernd laughed heartily and said: These aborigines are natural builders, and they have a strong understanding of the work of bricklayers.

He led me through the construction area. I watched curiously the natives moving the granite slabs in an orderly manner and building the wall with great effort. I was even more curious about how Bernd did it.

Bernd walked up to an elderly aborigine who was holding a hanging wire and was measuring whether the wall was vertical. The middle-aged aborigine was very respectful when he saw Bernd appearing, and even took out a piece of sheepskin from his arms. Paper, in blunt imperial language, asked Bernd many architectural questions trivially, and then the two had some exchanges on the layout of this section of the cave.

In the end, Bernd tiptoed and patted the aborigine on the shoulder and told him earnestly: "There is no division of day and night in the underground caves. We must strictly arrange work and rest time according to the time hourglass. We must pay attention to letting the laborers rest. The hourglass When you fill one grid, you have to rest for a while, every time you fill six grids, you have to prepare a meal, when you fill twelve grids, you need to turn the hourglass over, and all workers have to rest.”

The middle-aged native nodded repeatedly.

At the edge of this section of the cave site, there are several large iron pots, under which pieces of scrap wood are burned. Barley porridge is boiled in the big iron pots. I can smell the smell of wheat from the pots. Several strong natives Women and men are vigorously stirring the porridge pot with big wooden sticks, and the thick barley porridge inside has a sweet smell.

A few aboriginal children were squatting beside the big iron pot, watching the aboriginal women make porridge, with saliva dripping down their feet.

I saw that the large pots were almost full of barley porridge, and there were no shelves for scones around, so I asked Bernd in surprise: "Why don't you add a pork leg to them? Cook some porridge, How hungry can such thin porridge be? What about the wheat cakes I left in the warehouse?"

At this time, Bernd rubbed his hands and said proudly to me: "Master Jijia, if you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, you would never be able to imagine how much these Yero natives like to drink and sell porridge. It's not that I don't give them porridge. Wild boar leg meat is because they don’t want to add any meat to the porridge.”

Seeing that Bernd didn't directly tell me the reason why those aborigines worked hard, but instead showed me their single food.

I had an idea, but still couldn't believe it, and tentatively asked Bernd, "You mean, these people work so hard just to have a sip of porridge?"

Unexpectedly, Bernd nodded clearly, stroked his beard and said, "Exactly!"

"..." I didn't know what to say, and thought to myself: Are these indigenous people vegetarian?
Bernd said to me again: "However, Lord Jijia, there is one thing I must mention to you. Although Kalancuo told me that it is not a good time to talk about it, but I think, as the lord of Xinliu Valley , you have a right to know this."

I looked at Bernd suspiciously.

I heard him say again: "The food in our underground warehouse can't last long, it can only last for half a month at most."

That's right, I just realized that I really ignored this matter. After the [-] aborigines entered the underground cave, I originally stored food for the orc warriors for the first half of the year, and at the same time I had to support the [-] aborigines. The consumption rate of food has increased by six or seven times, which means that the food can only last for more than a month. It is no wonder that these indigenous people can only drink gruel.
