my age of magic

Chapter 966 67. The Secret of the Sea Demon
Katerina and I changed into ordinary clothes, walked through an alley, made another turn, and returned to the magic caravan.

At this time, the old Guberai horse pawed its hooves in fear, causing a jolt on the magic caravan. The coachman waved his whip vigorously to calm the Guberai horse. The coachman spoke to the carriage. We apologized in a low voice, and I told the coachman that I don't mind, and then signaled him to leave here.

The coachman let go of the hand brake on the magic caravan, and the Guberai horse panted heavily, pulling the magic caravan and running wildly on the stone street. Fortunately, it was at night, and there were no people on the street. Soon, a group of knights from the guards passed by the magic caravan. Those knights and lords were riding on the horses, yawning, checking their weapons while arranging their clothes. No one felt the need to check us This magic caravan.

Along the way, many residents of the island came out of their houses and asked each other what happened, and the streets gradually became chaotic.

"Master Jijia, what happened in front? Have you found your friend?" Rita finally couldn't bear it, sat in the car, and asked me what happened outside.

I looked up at her, smiled slightly, and said to her: "The magic caravan that my friend was riding in disappeared after turning a few turns in the alley ahead. We searched for a long time, but we didn't see it."

Rita rolled her eyes, looked annoyed, and said to me: "If I had known this, you should have taken me there. I am very familiar with this area. There is a market nearby, which is very lively during the day."

I don't want to continue weaving this lie, so I didn't continue to talk about this topic.

Ying Li sat opposite, "Do you want to continue looking for tomorrow?"

I scratched my head, I didn't expect to travel thousands of miles to Dunai Island, no one on this island knew any news about the sea monster, just like the sea monster had never appeared in the Vashj plane.

However, I still firmly believe that the sea monster must have appeared on the island of Du Nai, because it was the dean of the Royal Academy of Magic who told me the news.

I frowned and said, "...Well, maybe we can change our thinking and ask those old people who have lived on Du Nai Island for most of their lives!"

Ying Li asked Rita who was sitting beside him: "Rita, do you have any old wise men here?"

Rita said with some embarrassment: "This... I can ask first, I know a very old man, but he is not a wise man."

When girls chat, there will always be some common language.

And I was on the way, trying to recall the words he and I said in the study after the summer priest's family banquet.

The dean’s eyes caught in memory, the mysterious magic sea map, these are the reasons that guided me to Du Nai Island, I must have overlooked something, I said silently to myself.

After Rita received her share of the reward, she felt that it was impossible for me to develop further with her, so she got off the car halfway with a look of disappointment on her face.

Before getting off the car, Rita told me that her home is in the block in front of her, which is obviously not a civilian residential area. The streets are clean and tidy, and the houses on both sides are lined up side by side, and some houses still have lights on. , it seems that the people who can live here are not like the kind of poor people who worry about food.

We made an appointment to meet tomorrow in front of the gate of the manor hotel. She jumped out of the carriage and stood on the side of the road smiling and waving goodbye to us.

"Why do you think she did this?" I opened the car window and looked at the street at the rear of the car. There was no one else in the car, and my sitting posture became very casual.

"What?" Ying Li probably didn't hear my question clearly.

I had to repeat: "I mean, I don't understand why she should be a guide who can provide special services to guests!"

Yingli started to make fun of me: "Why, do you think she is delicate and cute, and I like her a little bit."

I reached out and pressed her little nose, and said to her, "You are so boring!"

Ying Li raised her delicate eyebrows, and asked me, "Are you acquiescing?"

"I do not have……"

I found this flimsy excuse to seem uninteresting, so I kept my mouth shut.

After a moment of silence, he said, "I just can't figure out why she came out to be a guide."

"Then you can ask him tomorrow, isn't it all right?" Ying Li said to me with a smile, she didn't look like a princess at all, but a heartless little girl next door.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Becky who was sitting beside her whispered, "Maybe it's because of living on this island!"

"Huh?" I froze for a moment, not understanding the meaning of her words.

The carriage was lit, and Becky's pretty face was reflected on the glass window. Her eyes became very bright, as if she was talking to herself: "I see the sun rising from the sea every day and setting back into the sea every day." , looking at the same faces on this island every day, the sinking city and people who are slowly aging may feel that life is meaningless. If you want to break free from the cage on this small island, you must Somebody has to get him out of here, maybe that's why she's the guide."

Becky had never seen such a sensual side.

When she was at the War College in El City, Becky got along with the boys in her class, had a lot of crowds, and was once more popular than Helena.

But when I saw Becky again, she had long seaweed-colored hair, and she became calmer and quieter. Maybe it was the influence of Ying Li, or maybe it was a natural change in her growth path. Not to the original Becky, the Becky standing in front of us now is still the Becky who likes to wear tight leather armor to show off her figure, just watching her long hair flying in the wind is like a nostalgia for yesterday's kind of farewell.

Hey girls mind.

We returned to the luxurious manor-style hotel all the way unimpeded.

……

Ying Li's eyes widened in surprise when he heard me talk about how I dealt with Duke Wheeler.

She said dumbfoundedly: "What? You asked Kalancuo to knock Duke unconscious and throw him in the yard. Why didn't you bring him back directly?"

"Bring it back...and then? Let him find out our true identity, or just keep silent and let him think about it!" I shrugged my shoulders and said nonchalantly.

Ying Li sighed slightly: "Even if that's the case, but... we should throw him to a safe place!"

I don't think so, but I think that yard is the safest place at that time.

So I said to Ying Li: "There is no place safer than that courtyard, then...you see, all the monks in the courtyard are dead, and the Knights of the Guard Battalion will rush over immediately, We will be able to find him immediately and properly protect him."

"Will he be in trouble? I mean if those knights found him in that yard..." Ying Li brushed the broken hair by her ears. Tonight she deliberately dressed up and became very ……Princess.

I said categorically: "Of course not, he is a member of the Wheeler family. I have asked Rita about the fact that the Wheeler family is very powerful in this area of ​​Dunay Island. The Cavaliers had no choice but to believe what he said."

Stepping through the portal, I turned around and supported Ying Li's arm, letting her step across the portal steadily and stand firmly on the altar of the teleportation array.

She gave me a sweet smile.

Tonight, she walked out of the room gracefully wearing a long palace dress, revealing a large snow-white chest and collarbone, she held the long skirt lightly with both hands, her long black hair was tied up, and she seemed to have With a different kind of beauty.Such a long skirt is not convenient for walking. When passing through the portal, you need to carefully lift the hem of the skirt, so I helped her so considerately.

When we went back to the underground cave of Xinliu Valley, we came back specially to treat those orc warriors. Some orc warriors had to use 'hydrotherapy' to recover as soon as possible. Just using 'hemostatic bandage' could not achieve any healing effect.

In addition, I want to see the middle-aged uncle who was rescued. He seems to be in a very bad condition and has been in a coma. Maybe I need to rescue him.

Last but not least, I just want to meet the two evil mages who were captured by the orc warriors. I have always had some unsolvable mysteries in my heart. Maybe they know the answer, so... I just thought, come here and ask a few questions.

Seeing Kalantso standing on the edge of the altar, I asked her: How are those wounded orc warriors doing?

She said to me disapprovingly: It's nothing serious, the orcs themselves have a strong recovery ability, don't think about healing them all the time and let them recover by themselves, it will stimulate their physical potential even more.

I asked her again: How is the middle-aged uncle who was rescued by us doing?

Kalantso told me: His physical condition was very poor. Sometimes he was as hot as coals, and sometimes as cold as ice, and he started talking nonsense, as if his brain had been burnt out.

After I listened to Kalantso's introduction, I quickly asked Kalantso to take me to see him.

The middle-aged uncle who was rescued by us is now lying in a stone house, and a Yero indigenous woman is wiping his chest with a wet towel, as if cooling down his body. At this time, he He was still unconscious, but his face was red and his ears were red, his lips were dry and cracked, as if a flame was burning in his lungs. Another Yero indigenous woman was pouring an unknown tree sap into his mouth.

When they saw Kalancuo and I barging in from the outside, they immediately stood up and saluted us. I asked the indigenous Yero woman with the sap in her hand, "How is he?"

The woman had a tribal totem tattooed on her face. She didn't dare to look at me, so her eyes fell on the middle-aged man.

Afterwards, she faltered and said: "His soul was sold to the devil, so the body became out of control because of the loss of the soul. Maybe it won't take long for him to die."

While he was talking, the middle-aged uncle's face suddenly turned livid again. He trembled and curled up. The woman beside him with a wet towel hurriedly covered him with a sheepskin quilt.

I squatted down and reached out to touch his forehead, it was as cold as ice.

I raised my head and asked Kalancuo, "Is it very similar to the old Su?"

Kalancuo frowned, and said: "It's a bit like it, but it's not exactly like it. When Su got sick, his body was covered with that kind of flame magic pattern. Even I couldn't suppress the power in his body, but he saw It doesn't sound that serious!"

"After all, Su had the 'Shadow Body' at that time. It seems that I guessed right. He must have taken the potion containing 'Devil's Blood', and now he is drug addicted." I sighed, and then Randomly dumped a 'spa'.

The effect of the 'hydrotherapy technique' was obvious. It suddenly relieved the coldness of his body, and his breathing began to become even.

Seeing that the middle-aged uncle had been unconscious, I stood up and said to Kalancuo, "Continue to send someone to take care of him, and I will come back when he wakes up."

Saying that, he walked out with Yingli.

At this time, I heard the middle-aged uncle lying in the sheepskin mattress mumbled in a daze: "I don't know about the treasure of the Pirate King... I don't know... Where am I?" What siren..."

I stopped and my eyes brightened.

The middle-aged uncle who was rescued by us was talking in his dream about the sea monster of Du Nai Island, so I decided to stay and ask him about the sea monster when he woke up.

But after waiting all night, the middle-aged uncle did not wake up.

Before sunrise, Ying Li and I had no choice but to return to the manor hotel on Du Nai Island.

Ying Li yawned and took Helena and Becky back to the room to catch up on sleep. I also planned to lie on the bed and sleep in the cage, and told Katerina that if that Miss Rita came to the Manor Hotel to find us, I would give her some money. A silver girl, just find any reason to reject her, now we have no idea of ​​investigating those old people on Dunai Island, because the real answer may lie in that middle-aged uncle.

……

Duke leaned on the sofa and said to me with a haggard face: "Jijia, you must not guess what kind of experience I had yesterday?"

I pretended to be surprised and asked, "What? Did you go out yesterday?"

He gave me a weird look and said, "Actually, I was hijacked, and it was an amazing...well, hijacking trip!"

I asked inexplicably, "Why do you say that?"

He seemed to be caught in some kind of memory, and said: "I was groggy along the way, as if I was sitting on a cloud. At that time, I always thought that I was making out with a beautiful winged girl. I seemed to Touching her delicate wings and her breasts is an unforgettable feeling!"

I said, "But in fact, you were kidnapped?"

He coughed in embarrassment: "Cough cough cough... that's right!"

I said, "Thank God, when I saw you, you were all right!"

He leaned on the sofa decadently, and said: "Having said that... oh, I came to you just to tell you that a huge force has sneaked into Dunai Island, and they made their debut on Dunai Island for the first time. It actually wiped out a hideout of a black magic order."

I asked her, "What kind of people are they?"

Duke also said blankly: "I don't know! I just heard that last night, those from the Knights of the Guard Battalion seized a large amount of items from the demons in that residence."

"Oh, by the way, the entire city of the Knights of the Guard Battalion is under martial law, threatening to catch those who don't obey the rules. Humph! This group of knights must have been slapped in the face, so they will show a look of embarrassment and anger! "

"What I'm worried about is your identities. Don't expose them. Be careful. When someone interrogates you, you can say that you are my friend, but... no matter what, you can't say that you are from Connerson Island Yes, you know?"

"Ah!" It turned out to be like this. I was a little moved by Duke's visit.

Duke laughed and said: "Sure enough! I guess you don't know. The consul here has a lot of friendship with Marquis Boris. He will not let people who oppose Marquis Boris appear in the city. They can't find the group of mysterious Man, I won't be lenient in grabbing you remnants of Connerson Island."

"……"I'm speechless.

But he immediately became radiant, and said to me: "Tonight, Baron Everton is holding a ball in the manor. Would you like to go with me? I heard that there will be many aristocratic ladies from the Isle of Dunay. Maybe you can have a ball." A great night!"

I rejected Duke, walked him to the door, and finally said to him: "Thank you for your kindness, but I'll forget it, and have a good time!"
