The mage arrives

Gordon didn't have much interest in this grand event called Autumn Hunt, which was actually a blind date and entertainment.Even Xiona has been focusing on those charming noble daughters, as if she wants to find a wife for her brother, while Gordon is thinking about other issues.

Since we are going to the Danzi Ruins, we must make preparations in advance.

As a veteran player, of course Gordon knew that he had to read the guide before downloading the dungeon.

In the past few days, apart from burying his head in the alchemy laboratory and making a large number of scrolls and magic potions to meet the needs of the adventure, Gordon has also made full preparations for intelligence work.

He first inquired about the Danzig ruins information from his sister who is an adventurer and Shelley, and then went to the adventurer guild a few times, and got more useful information from those senior adventurers. A lot of gold coins.

The Danzig ruins were originally a city in the Sun Elf Empire during the third era, Danzig City.In the ancient elf language, "Danze" means emerald green surrounded by mountains.

The Sun Elf Empire was a behemoth that once ruled over [-]% of the continent.However, with the rise of the Netherdulan magic empire dominated by humans, conflicts inevitably occurred between the old overlord and the emerging challenger.

In the protracted war, the Magic Empire has won victory after victory.The great arcanists of Netherdulan, with the floating city as the core, supplemented by various flying warships, control and monitor the vast airspace, and provide support to the ground troops.The old tactics of the Sun Elf Empire went from one failure to another, and the territory of the empire shrank rapidly.

In Danze City in the Cold Mist Mountains, the two sides launched an offensive and defensive battle to determine the ownership of the entire Northland.

In this battle, both sides suffered losses.The Sun Elf Empire shot down five flying warships of the Netherdulan Magic Empire by virtue of the newly developed joint attack spell.However, the flying battleship crashed into Danzig City, and the Miser energy core inside exploded, destroying the entire city.

Although the Magic Empire's fleet of flying warships suffered heavy losses, the Sun Elf Empire lost Danze City, the strategic support point for the entire Northland.

In the end, knowing that the defeat was irretrievable, the senior officials of the Sun Elf Empire issued an order for the elves to retreat. Almost all the Sun Elf on the mainland crossed the sea and returned to their birthplace - Eternal Island.Since then, the sun elves have completely disappeared in the entire continent.

Later, it was not until the magic empire of Netherdulan flourished and declined, and it was going to perish, and the chapter of history was turned into the fourth era, that the traces of the sun elves reappeared on the mainland.

Danze City was once an important place for the defense of the Sun Elves, and it has accumulated countless supplies, wealth, and ordnance. Although the city has long been destroyed, and the ruins have been blown by the rain and wind of the years, the treasures buried in the ruins are still there. Quietly waiting for the day when it will be discovered and seen again.

What's more, on the five crashed flying warships of the Magic Empire, there are also countless precious items that can lure friends to betray and brothers to turn against each other.

Since the Fourth Era, the ruins of Danzig have always been a hot spot for adventurers, travelers, mercenaries, and outlaws.However, because of the nuclear explosion of the Mithr energy on the flying battleship, the Danzig ruins became an inaccessible death zone full of chaotic and violent magical energy.Adventurers gave this magical energy a very apt name: fierce fog.

However, the fierce fog surrounding the ruins does not always completely block the treasures in the ruins from the adventurers.The ferocious fog will weaken periodically, and at this time, greedy adventurers and treasure hunters will swarm into the Danzig ruins.

Since 936 of the Fourth Era, that is, last year, the fierce fog around the Danzig ruins has entered a cycle of weakening again. Since then, adventurers from all over the continent, even from the southern desert country, They all poured into the Northland, into the City of Clear Water.

Thanks to the Danzig ruins, the business of Gordon and Douluo's magic shop became more and more prosperous, earning a lot of gold coins from adventurers...

Extending from Clearwater City, the Northern Avenue directly leading to Gaoyan City and Anduin Great Wall was originally built for the timely deployment of additional troops and transportation for the Great Wall defense line, so the standard of this avenue was extremely high.The road for ten horses to walk side by side has three layers of compacted foundations alone, and the top is densely paved with pebbles, making it stable and comfortable for people walking and driving.

An increasingly large hunting team of nobles walked on the avenue, while the travelers, merchants, and adventurers who were also going to the Cold Mist Mountains had to make way for the road and retreat to the sides .

The commoners bowed their waists and saluted the nobles respectfully, while those adventurers were much bolder.Many people copied their hands, commented on the women in the hunting team, and whistled from time to time.

For this kind of rude compliment, most aristocratic women don't find it disgusting, but find it a little novel, and even compare each other with a charming smile to see who gets more compliments.

However, there are also girls like Xieona and Faliya who are so different, their pretty faces are icy and indifferent, even if those men make a fuss, they will stare at them fiercely, scaring the other party into silence.

The hunting party passed through a shallow grassy hilly area, then turned east, and the field of vision immediately opened up.

Today's weather is very good, Gao Deng set up a pergola and looked into the distance.Pale golden sunlight dripped from the fingers, dyeing the towering cold fog mountains in the distance with a layer of light amber.

The continuous snow-covered mountains all year round separate the entire northern plain from the barren tundra further north.These peaks over 5000 meters are a natural barrier to protect the northern border of the empire.

Below the snow line, the color of the mountains suddenly changed from icy and pure white, first to a sparse yellow-green, and then gradually to a verdant green.

However, in the bleak autumn wind, the green in the mountains has faded a lot. The leaves of the eucalyptus and fir trees have been covered with a layer of yellow, but the maple trees are dyed a striking red. Only the evergreen pine trees are not affected by the seasons. , still green as ever.The colorful colors are like a visual feast, and the beauty of nature makes people's heart flutter. Even Gordon, who is full of adventure, can't help but feel happy.

Before dinner, the hunting team entered Kebre, a small town at the foot of Cold Mist Mountain.This is the gateway to the Cold Mist Mountains. Gordon and the others rested here for a night before officially entering the mountains the next day, and finally stopped in a valley called "Valley of Yongchun" in the middle of the mountains.

The Valley of Yongchun is surrounded by mountains, and the cold air in winter cannot flow in, so the four seasons are like spring, hence the name.There is a freshwater lake in the valley, which is an important drinking place for wild animals in the mountains.During the autumn hunting in previous years, this valley was the base of hunting teams.The aristocrats went hunting during the day, cooked prey by the lake at night, drank and had fun, and held banquets. They were really happy.

And Gordon's plan is to continue northward after reaching the Valley of Eternal Spring, and go deep into the Danze ruins located in the central area of ​​the Cold Mist Mountains.

Hunting is not about marching and fighting, but a gathering for entertainment and exchange of feelings between nobles. Besides, there are so many delicate ladies and pampered masters, the speed of the team will not be very fast.

After starting again from the small town of Kebre, the hunting team moved slowly through the mountains.From time to time, later nobles joined the team, and those who wanted to reach the Valley of Eternal Spring earlier left early.

In the afternoon two days later.

"Ugh~ It's too much to stay on horseback for so many days. I should have known that I would use the flying technique to make my way." Young master Don Lannister stretched his waist, with a bored expression on his face.

After knowing that he could enjoy wild game in the Valley of Eternal Spring tonight, he completely relaxed.

"No one is stopping you. It's just that you're using the flying spell to hurry and run out of spell slots. You'd better pray that no wild beast will run into you. Well, a mage who has no power to fight back must be delicious." Gordon laughed. .

"That's not the point." Don leaned close to Gordon's ear and said with a chuckle, "When I prepared the spells this morning, I already replaced all the spell slots with Transfiguration, Bull's Strength, and Bear's Patience..."

"Those beautiful ladies and ladies have been riding on horseback these days, and they must be unable to close their legs now. Isn't this a good opportunity?" Don said with a pun.

Gordon shook his head angrily: "Where is your beloved Miss Julian?"

"She has reached the Valley of Eternal Spring first. Of course I will finish her first tonight. But you know, with so many spells, plus your Great Wind Ring, how can I just be satisfied with the lovely Julian?" Dawn poked Gordon with his arm, "Well, would you like to join me? It's lonely without your half-elf girl."

Gordon smiled and shook his head.

"Oh." Don patted his forehead, "I forgot, you have a lovely younger sister by your side. It's a pity that you won't be able to enjoy the greatest fun of autumn hunting."

Gordon shrugged noncommittally.

The two chatted while walking, and suddenly, the brooch of Ms. Teresa Bishop at the front of the line beeped.The sword-wielding lady's complexion changed, and she said, "The scouts on the front right are in a fight. They must have encountered a powerful beast."

"A powerful beast?" The scepter lord's daughter's eyes lit up when she heard Taresa's words.She hardly thought about it, patted the head of the giant bear mount, and shouted, "Flame Claw, let's go!"

Faria took the lead and ran towards the accident site.Don showed a gloating smile, and said to his friend: "Gordon, you flower protector, are you still going with me? If something happens to Faria, it depends on how you explain it to Uncle Rob."

Before the hunting team set off that day, Taresa told Gordon that the Lord of Scepter had something to take care of his precious daughter.

The work assigned by the boss must be completed naturally.Gordon had to follow.

"Wait, I'll go too!" Seeing that Gordon had left the team, Xiona jumped on the horse's belly and kept pace with her brother.
