My Magic Age
Chapter 1186 290. Justus's Dilemma
The days of sailing on the magic airship are not so boring. Standing on the deck of the bow every day, watching the sunrise and sunset, watching the clouds roll and unfold, you will always gain a little understanding of nature.
Flying from the Northern Province to the Imperial Capital, the wind layer where the magic airship is located is extremely cold. Water dripping on the deck turns into ice, and a thick layer of ice condenses on both sides of the ship. What the sailors have to do every day is to carry a long iron rod to remove the floating ice on the sixteen floating devices. They wear thick dog-skin cotton jackets, wrapped up like dumplings, and even wear a thick wool mask on their faces.
These cold winds blowing from the extreme north of the ice and snow tundra fill the sails on the magic airship. You can hear the "creaking" sound of the main mast at all times. That is the friction sound from the main mast and the clamp of the fixed rope. Every day, the crew climbs up and down the main mast to check the safety of the ropes above.
The ball sail on the bow seemed to be pulled forward by the hand of the gods, and it could be torn apart by the cold north wind at any time.
Sometimes the floating clouds in the sky would cling to the side of the magic airship, making it look like it was sailing in the sea of clouds. The endless sea of clouds always made me want to jump off the side of the ship.
Sometimes the clouds in the sky would become higher, so that the clouds would appear above my head, and the observation tower of the main mast, which was 50 to 60 meters high, would directly penetrate into the clouds. The feeling that the sky was about to fall down would make people feel extremely depressed.
Often at this time, the captain of the magic airship would try to increase the flying altitude of the magic airship and drive the airship back above the clouds, just like a koi carp jumping out of the water.
During the voyage, what we had to do every day was to draw the magic pattern structure of the white rock rhino skin in the cabin. The remaining fifteen sets finally took a week to make. Then, we made all the skins of the warp beasts in our hands into twenty-three scrolls of "directional teleportation scrolls". In the imperial capital, this scroll is more popular than the magic shield scroll.
However, the magic shield scroll can be bought at any magic store in the imperial capital, but the "directional teleportation scroll" was invented by Senior Dylan. The design drawings of the magic pattern array of this scroll have not been made public and are almost impossible to find in the magic market. Therefore, as long as this teleportation scroll appears in the magic market, it will be snapped up by magicians immediately.
As the future master of the Vashj plane of the Mensa family, Noah does not need to exchange the barbarian's left ear for merit to the logistics department of El City. Therefore, in addition to filling a magic box and sending it to Arendt, I sent the remaining more than 500 left ears of the barbarian obtained from this hunt to the military supply department of the logistics department. These merits made me successfully promoted to the second-class earl.
During this wild hunting, we got some magic gems from the barbarians. Except for thirteen given to Tracy as wedding gifts, the rest of the Star of Elune and turquoise, moonstone, tiger eye stone and other magic gems all belonged to Noah and Shirley.
Ten days later, the magic airship passed by San Carlos City.
Looking down from the side of the deck, San Carlos City was in my sight. The large chimneys in the city were emitting billowing smoke, which was connected with the clouds in the sky. It seemed that the mithril mine of the Babington family on the Angela multi-plane had resumed production and continuously provided San Carlos City with sufficient mithril ingots, which made the magic rune plate workshops in San Carlos City produce at full capacity.
In this way, Anne has been in the Angela multi-plane for more than two months with the Knights of Qiyan Province.
I don't know if the Royal Knights led by Prince Wales have arrived at the plane battlefield of Angelado this month. It is said that Prince Charlie wants to take over the command of the Royal Knights. If so, one month is enough to complete the handover.
Prince James's South Wind Army Map is still under repair, but it seems that he will go to other planes to participate in the war soon. Before I left the imperial capital, I signed a contract with Earl Donald, the quartermaster of the South Wind Corps, on the purchase of bed crossbows and crossbow arrows. The first thing I did when I returned to the imperial capital was to deliver the bed crossbow arrows that were printed in Xinliu Valley to Earl Donald.
After more than a month of accumulation, Xinliu Valley Blacksmith Shop has stockpiled a huge number of fire magic rune plates and miniature tornado rune plates, as well as mountains of bed crossbow arrows and magic pattern spider silk ingots that fill the entire shelf.
Nearly 400 barbarians chose to sign a slave contract with me during this field hunt. These barbarian slaves are currently digging strip stones in the quarry in Xinliu Valley.
Bernd has prepared 500 barbarian slaves in Xinliu Valley, just waiting for an opportunity to enter the Black Forest of the Yelo plane to start hunting. The remaining 100 barbarian slaves will lead the newly arrived 400 barbarian slaves to do hard labor in the quarry. I asked Bernd to implement the last-place elimination system for the barbarian slaves in the newly formed legion, that is, the ten barbarian slaves with the worst performance will be selected every month and sent to the quarry to do hard labor.
After half a month, the magic airship finally entered the airport town at the foot of Mount Mazzaro in the imperial capital. The airport town of the imperial capital is still so busy. Countless magic airships of all sizes line up and enter the airport along the established route, and dock at the sky dock of the high tower.
The temperature in the Imperial Capital was obviously warmer than that in El City. Noah and Shirley stood at the bow of the airship, waving at the airship in front of them. Only then did I realize that the one in front of me was actually a passenger airship. On the platform at the rear of the airship stood several young magicians, who were actually magic students from the Royal Magic Academy, one of whom was a student from the Fire Department Class 2.
At the beginning of the school year, magic students from the Royal Magic Academy gathered in the Imperial Capital from all directions.
Ying Li leaned on the mast of the airship, and the airship arrived safely at the Imperial Capital Airport Town. She was in a good mood.
At this moment, she looked at me with a smile and said to me: "Hey, do you remember what happened when you first came to the Imperial Capital last spring?"
The airship was docked steadily on the suspended dock of the airport. I leaned next to Ying Li and watched as Noah and Shirley ran down the airship impatiently before the crew had stabilized the pedals, and warmly hugged the students on another airship. They made a lot of friends in the class and made a lot of friends in a year.
The deck was crowded with people getting ready to get off the airship. I said with emotion, "How could I forget! On the first day I arrived in the Imperial Capital, I went to the Imperial Capital Junior Magic Academy to see you and had a fight with Quentin."
Holding Ying Li's hand, I followed the crew down the airport tower through the nobles' exclusive passage.
A magic caravan with the emblem of the Emerald Bay Trading Company was parked in the alley outside the airport. The manager, Mr. Bud, was wearing a thick cotton coat and squeezed in the crowd outside the airport. When he saw Noah and I coming out of the airport, he waved and squeezed towards us.
Noah and Shirley had a very interesting conversation with the magic students from the Royal School of Magic. They followed the crowd and walked out of the gate of the airport town. Everyone probably had a lot to say in their hearts. However, when these magic students heard that Noah had actually gone to the North to hunt barbarians this winter, they admired Noah and Shirley. Noah proudly took out two "Stars of Elune" for everyone to see, making it seem like there was gold everywhere in the North, and you could pick up magic gems anywhere as long as you went there.
In the imperial capital, a "Star of Elune" can be sold for 150 magic crystals, and it is basically out of stock. Those wealthy ladies are very fascinated by this deep blue gem. Many times, in the auction house, this precious magic gem is far more valuable than a set of magic pattern construction.
Seeing Noah holding two walnut-sized "Stars of Elune" magic rough stones in his hand, the two female magic students in the crowd looked at Noah with countless little stars in their eyes.
After all, he was a young master from a wealthy family. Seeing that someone was coming to pick Noah up, and Noah kindly invited everyone to ride his magic caravan back to the imperial capital, these magic students did not act pretentiously and followed Noah on his magic caravan.
Yingli, Helena, Becky, and Katrina and I were at the end. Noah stood at the door of the carriage and motioned us to get on quickly. I pointed to the magic caravan marked with the Prince's Palace not far away. Noah suddenly realized and made a "see you tomorrow" gesture to me, then got into the carriage. The magic caravan then merged into the traffic and drove towards the imperial capital.
…
In Tanton City, it was drizzling in the sky, and the raindrops hit the glass windows bit by bit, turning into crystal clear water droplets that left a shallow mark on the glass windows.
Katarina, Minotaur Luka, Kalancuo and I walked out of the portal one after another. We saw that the hotel room was in a mess. A bloody smell filled the room. Mr. Justus was lying in the bathtub with a pale face. The water in the bathtub was stained light red by blood. He put his hands on the edge of the bathtub, staring at a pair of dark circles under his eyes, looking at us with a decadent face.
"Ji Jia, I'm glad to see you again!" Justus's voice became much smaller.
I walked to his side and found that he could not maintain a complete human form. A huge fish tail was soaked in the bathtub. The scales on the fish tail fell off very seriously, and it was covered with various deep and shallow scars. There was also a penetrating wound on his shoulder. The wound was about the size of a small bowl and kept oozing blood.
"How could you make yourself so miserable?" I leaned over and asked Justus while checking the wound on his body.
Justus waved his hand weakly. He coughed twice, and every time he coughed, the wound on his shoulder would bleed.
After calming down a little, he said to me: "Don't mention it. I followed the adventure group to the spider camp. Who would have thought that there were three spider commanders lurking in the camp, and three teams of spider warriors lurking outside the camp, directly surrounding the adventure group. We couldn't even withstand the first wave of the spider warriors' charge. The entire adventure group was cut off by the spider warriors and surrounded in the spider camp."
I was a little surprised. Even if I walked into the trap of the Nibru spider, I wouldn't be so passive.
I asked him: "Didn't you say that three second-turn warriors were invited?"
Justus said with disdain: "Those timid second-turn warriors saw three spider commanders rushing out of the camp and ran away without doing anything."
I looked at him and threw two "hydrotherapy" at random, which made him scream in pain.
"What about you? Are you still planning on being a hero?" I asked Justus. This descendant of the siren has a very strong sense of chivalry, so I guess he probably wouldn't choose to slip away at the first opportunity.
Justus looked down and saw that his wound was healing little by little. He looked at me with gratitude and said to me: "I also know that the situation has become uncontrollable. In fact, I also want to slip away as soon as possible, but after all, those people are my companions. I can't just abandon them!"
I asked him speechlessly: "So you decided to help?"
Justus nodded.
I said again: "And then you hurt yourself like this?"
Justus raised his arm and signaled to me that his body could still move. He said to me: "My recovery ability is very strong, and I will be well soon!"
I reluctantly took out a roll of hemostatic bandage from the magic waist bag and said: "Okay! I just don't want you to risk your life in the Hiero plane."
"I know." Justus made an 'OK' gesture to me.
The minotaur Luka squatted in front of Justus's fish tank, looking at Justus's thick fish tail with curiosity, and said to Justus in a muffled voice: "Justus, are you a Janna warrior?"
Justus almost fainted when he heard Luka's words. He pointed his finger at his chest and almost struggled to stand up from the bathtub. He protested to Luka loudly: "Luka, I am a half-siren, a descendant of a siren. How can you tell that I am a Janna? Please, don't insult me like this!"
Seeing Justus's angry expression, Luka apologized repeatedly and said: "Oh, sorry, Justus, your lower body is quite similar to that of a Naga warrior."
The minotaur warrior took out a hemostatic bandage from the package and helped me treat Justus's wounds. He held up Justus's huge fish tail and wrapped it with a hemostatic bandage like a mummy.
"My tail is full of sharp bone spurs, how can it be the same as the Gana Sea Tribe?" Justus was still thinking about Luka's chattering.
But when he looked at his tail, his voice immediately became a little softer, and he said to Luka: "Oh, okay! Now those bone spurs have been broken, and I don't have the strength to make them grow again for the time being!"
I sat next to Justus, while treating the wound on his shoulder, and asked him: "What happened to your temporary adventure group later?"
Justus stretched out his hand to splash some water on his face, rested his head on the edge of the bathtub, and said with a decadent face: "What else can it be! I heard that only three out of ten people who can escape back to Tanton City survive. Now only a hundred or so people in the adventure group of hundreds of people are hiding in various corners of Tanton City to recover from their injuries. But these are what I heard from others. I think the number of people who actually survived can be more optimistic."
