The mage arrives

Kebre Town is the main passage from the Cold Mist Mountains to the northern plains. Traveling merchants usually choose to trade with the mountain people here, so over time, the town has formed a large-scale collection of fur, game, mountain products, and timber. trade market.The large influx of foreign population and the increase in commercial taxes naturally made the lord who manages the town grin from ear to ear.

When the high-registered autumn hunting team entered the mountain, they once stayed in the small town for one night. The fat and red-faced lord, Baron Monka, invited himself and Dorne to taste a game with seasonal flavors. banquet.

This time when he came to Cobre Town again, Gordon found that in winter, the town that should have been deserted due to the stagnation of the mountain goods trade was still crowded with people and very lively.The streets are decorated with lights and festoons, and olive garlands symbolizing victory are hung at the door of both residential and commercial houses, as if the blessing day of the dragon god is not over yet.

However, Gordon didn't pay much attention to the changes in the town. As soon as he entered the square in front of the gate of the town, his eyes were attracted by the giant oil painting of his sister Xiona.

The dark night and the burning sky are the background, and then supplemented by the tragic battlefield with ruined walls and dead bodies.The beautiful girl is located in the center of the picture.She was covered in injuries and exhausted, but her expression was firm and her body was as straight as a flagpole. Especially her long black hair fluttering in the wind added a touch of dynamic beauty to this static picture.

The girl held a broken sword in one hand and a huge and ugly orc head in the other.Her lips parted slightly, as if she was shouting the slogan of victory, while the human soldiers behind her had different expressions.But without hesitation, they followed her to launch a Jedi charge.

In the lower right corner of the picture is the name of the oil painting "Battlefield Angel" and its author's signature.

"Leonidas Bonatti?" Gordon read the author's name.

"Master Bonatti is the greatest realist painter in Ferreton, the royal painter of the Anduin royal family. He is best at depicting epics, history, and wars. You don't know?" A crisp voice came from the side .

The person who spoke was a girl in a bright yellow fur fur, with a petite figure less than 1.6 meters, and a pair of black-rimmed glasses on her delicate face.Gordon glanced at the maid standing behind her, and guessed that it was probably some noble lady who came out to play.He shrugged. "I don't know much about art."

"Oh my God!" The lady with glasses opened her mouth in surprise, looking at Gordon as if she was visiting from another plane, "Sir, you are also a decent person with status. It is hard not to know Master Bonatti." Believe."

When Miss Glasses mentioned that Leonida Bonatti, her eyes sparkled immediately.Gordon knew he'd better not reason with such fanatics.Then I looked at my sister's paintings on my own.

"It's no wonder that Master Bonatti has truly and vividly expressed Miss Freeman's beauty and heroism through the scroll. Such a beauty. Even a man like you who doesn't understand art will be attracted by it naturally. "Miss Glasses seems to have misunderstood something, she doesn't seem to plan to leave, and continues the birth process of Gordon's popular science oil painting.

"Since the news of the victory in the Battle of High Rock City spread, the story of Miss Freeman beheading Ugru Iron Claw, the warlord of the orc war, has been widely praised. Master Bonatti has collected many witnesses of that brutal battle. The first-hand information provided by the author, and personally went to the battlefield to inspect, and finally created this pair of oil paintings overnight. His Majesty the Emperor admired this work very much, and immediately ordered the court mage to copy thousands of copies. Then it was sent to all parts of the country for display where it's prominent."

Gordon nodded.After the war was won.Naturally, when establishing a hero to inspire the people and demonstrate the correctness of the rule, the emperor's approach is understandable.

"Miss, do you know where Xiona is now?"

After staying in the Cold Mist Mountains for five days, although he had a messenger brooch in his hand, he couldn't contact Xiona due to the distance. Gordon knew nothing about the changes in the outside world.Now that he has met an insider, he naturally wants to find out more information.

"Although Miss Freeman is now famous far and wide, she has almost become the dream lover of all young men in Ferreton. I understand your admiration. But what right do you have to call her by her first name and call her so affectionately?" ?” Miss Glasses was quite dissatisfied with Gordon.However, she would not say such impolite words out of her mouth, she just slandered her in her heart.

"Uh huh..." Clearing her throat, Miss Glasses continued: "Miss Freeman has been recruited by His Majesty the Emperor and has arrived in the Imperial Capital. She has been awarded the title of Earl, and the grand celebration and awarding ceremony will be held in a week. held."

"I think we should call her Countess Freeman." Miss Glasses tried to correct Gordon's "disrespect" for her heroine.

"One week? Countess?" Gordon found that he was a little out of step with the pace of changes after only being isolated from the world in the Cold Mist Mountains for five days.He himself was just a baron, but he didn't expect his sister to make a big leap and get the title of earl.

For Gordon, this information was heard for the first time.Miss Glasses was very happy to continue to popularize science for the mage who had no information, and she said another explosive news: "The reason why it takes a week is because before that, the emperor will hold a mourning ceremony to commemorate the soldiers who died in the war. And buried Grand Duke Rob Antello and Baron Gordon Freeman. These two noble mages resolutely sacrificed themselves for Freyton's victory. Such heroes should be remembered by everyone. My father and I I will also set off to the imperial capital to attend the funeral of the hero."

Miss Glasses had tears in her eyes.

Gordon, however, was unmoved.If he was drinking or eating now, he would probably spit out everything in his mouth immediately.

I'm not dead yet, what funeral?

But thinking about it carefully, I and the Grand Duke went deep into the floating fortress alone. Although I finally completed the mission, but he disappeared for five days and lost contact with the outside world. Died in the explosion.

Miss Glasses sized Gordon up with a surprised expression, apparently misunderstood again.She patted Gordon on the back in a comforting tone: "Sir, I think you should also be a mage from your appearance. I must feel very sorry for Grand Duke Antaello and Baron Freeman who have the same status. But don't be too sad , Although Freyton lost two heroes, he also has two new heroes. Countess Siona Freeman and Commander Derrington von Eisenstein will continue to guard this country."

Gordon was surprised for a while, wondering why Miss Glasses suddenly mentioned Durrington's name.The latter seemed to see what Gordon was thinking, and pulled him to another flagpole next to "Battlefield Angel".

Because of the angle, Gordon didn't see it just now.Now that he changed his standing position, he saw an oil painting called "The Silver Knight", which hung high side by side with his sister's portrait.

In the painting, a handsome and extraordinary knight with flying silver hair, wearing shining armor and holding a sharp spear, is riding on a strong and handsome horse, charging forward fearlessly.Behind him were groups of human cavalry, and the White Eagle flag of the Winter Claw Legion was flying high.Those orc soldiers who faced the brave Freyton knights all fled and were routed.

"How is this going?"

Miss Glasses didn't notice that Gordon's complexion had darkened, and his tone became cold.She thought it was just the natural jealousy of an ordinary man after seeing the extraordinary demeanor of the Knight of Durlington.

"This is another hero who was as famous as the Countess of Freeman, Freyton's battlefield angel in the Battle of High Rock City. He came from the famous Eisenstein family. When Earl Sen was unexpectedly sacrificed, he bravely stood up and turned the tide, leading the Winter Claw Legion to defeat the main force of the orcs. People say that although the Battle Angel defeated the warlord Ugru Iron Claw, it greatly improved the strength of Freyton's army. Morale. But in terms of military exploits, Knight Durlington... oh no, it should be Earl Durrington, the silver knight, who is number one in this battle."

count?This guy seems to have been knighted too.

Gordon sneered, and the glasses lady next to him shuddered. He didn't know why the mage suddenly got angry.

In order to win, he worked out a battle plan with all his heart, and even included the most precious combat power - the blade golem.

In order to win, the younger sister was not afraid of a strong enemy, she faced Ugru Iron Claw, and finally defeated the enemy with almost all her strength.

In order to win, teacher Rob Antello even sacrificed his own life.

After so much effort, today's results were achieved, and the biggest fruit was snatched away by that despicable man, Dellington?

If it wasn't for the fact that the pig teammate had seduced the equally ambitious Earl Exxon because of his own selfishness, he didn't obey orders and attacked without authorization. As a result, he was attacked by the orcs, causing the battle situation to get out of hand and rot quickly.In the end, the Grand Duke and himself had to stand up and turn the tide.

"Derlington von Eisenstein..." Gordon recited the name silently, anger and murderous intent brewing in his heart like a storm.

Miss Glasses glanced at the mage's black eyes and was almost startled.

"What happened, why...why did this person suddenly become so scary?"

She summoned up her courage, patted Gordon on the shoulder, and asked timidly, "Sir, are you okay?"

Gordon came back to his senses and quickly calmed down his emotions.His anger didn't disappear, it just quietly melted into his heart, continuously turning into the driving force for launching his revenge plan.

Durrington must pay for what he did.The teacher's sacrifice is by no means a stepping stone for him to gain fame and merit.

I will deprive him of everything he pursues.What he holds dear, I will destroy.All obstacles standing in front of the revenge plan, I will relentlessly step down! (to be continued..)
