My Magic Age

The pottery bowls at the four corners of the platform were dancing with blue flames, accompanied by the murmurs of the Janna wizard, and the whole square was reverberating with sad tunes, which made people shudder.

A faceless mermaid girl kept appearing in my mind. Although I couldn't see her face clearly, the girl's smiles seemed so real. From her birth, growth, meeting the first love of her life, and finally dying on a quiet island, she now lies in the ice coffin in front, like a cold ice rock.

The huge ice coffin was parked on the stone platform. The ice coffin looked very thick. Through the translucent ice wall, I could vaguely see the vague figure inside. I could even tell where her head was and where her beautiful fish tail was. The green scales were attached to the ice coffin wall, reflecting a slightly blunt diamond grid.

Ying Li took Helena and Becky to the ice coffin. The Janna warriors guarding the stone platform came up silently. They put their strong arms on the coffin cover and slowly pushed the heavy ice cover open. I instantly felt a large amount of ice elements gushing out of the ice coffin. The coldness in the ice coffin instantly spread to the entire platform, but it lingered between the four pottery bowls. There was no trace of ice mist flowing under the platform.

Ying Li stood in front of the ice coffin. She looked back at me, then took a deep breath, held her breath, leaned forward, and looked inside. Helena and Becky stood cautiously beside Ying Li, guarding against the two Janna warriors in front of the ice coffin.

It was hard to describe the expression on her face when she first saw Princess Ariel lying in the ice coffin. It was like looking at her own makeup in the mirror. She pursed her lips slightly, widened her eyes, and looked at Princess Ariel in the ice coffin with envy in her eyes. She touched her cheek and asked the great wizard Janna: "Is this what I look like? Will I soon have the beauty of Princess Ariel?"

"That appearance originally belonged to you, and now Ariel is just giving it all back to you..." said the great wizard Janna to Ying Li.

I don't know why, but there were some fluctuations in my spiritual sea for no reason. The shadow of the great wizard Gana floated on the surface of the spiritual sea. Every subtle body movement was slowing down in my mind. I found that when she answered Ying Li's question, her hands hidden in her sleeves were shaking slightly. In these words of the great wizard Gana, I could still hear a kind of earnestness, which was an irresistible desire hidden in the deepest part of her heart. Although she tried her best to hide her inner thoughts, I still noticed it.

Perhaps because she found the answer she wanted, Ying Li showed a trace of joy on her face.

But I felt a little cold in my back because I didn't know what the great wizard Gana was hiding deep in her heart. I kept telling myself to stay calm.

She turned around and waved at me, then said to the great wizard of Janna who was singing a ballad beside her: "Great wizard, I want Jijia to see what I look like, okay?"

"Follow your heart and do it, that's what you want, I believe that Ariel lying in the ice coffin will respect your decision." The great wizard of Janna said vaguely in a hoarse voice.

"Jijia, do you want to come and take a look?" Ying Li turned around and asked me with a smile.

I stood on the edge of the platform and shook my head vigorously. Unlike Noah, I find it difficult to have a good impression of these mermaids of the Janna tribe.

"Don't you want to see what I originally looked like?" Ying Li asked in surprise.

Although I didn't want to laugh at all in this situation, I still smiled and said to her: "Because that's not you, the one lying in the ice coffin is the princess of the Janna sea tribe, I like you now, gentle, brave, kind..."

Ying Li was silent for a moment, but still let out a long breath, and she exuded incomparable ease all over her body.

Then she held Helena and Becky's hands and said in a confident tone: "Yes, you are right, that face is no longer me, and there is nothing wrong with me now, and I still have Helena and Becky."

Ying Li, Helena and Becky bowed to Princess Ariel in the ice coffin. This is the etiquette of the Green Empire, which is a kind of comfort to the dead.

Then, she came to the front of the great wizard of Janna. The great wizard of Naga was still sitting on the high platform. She was still singing to tell the life of Princess Ariel, but the trembling in her singing became more and more obvious. I felt that she was trying her best to suppress herself, as if she would burst out with anger in the next moment, and her whole body was tense.

"That beauty was originally yours. Ariel's last wish before her death was that you could regain this stunning beauty. Child, don't let her down..." The Great Wizard of Gana said a little anxiously. She opened her eyes that were like two balls of incandescent light again and stared at Ying Li.

Ying Li was frightened and took two steps back.

The Great Wizard of Gana softened her tone and said to Ying Li: "The transfer magic ceremony and Ariel's funeral will be held the day after tomorrow. You still have enough time to consider these. Whether you accept Ariel's last wish or not, you have to thank you for traveling thousands of miles from the Green Empire to the City of the Abyss to attend Ariel's funeral."

Her electric eyes closed again and she sat on the high platform again.

"I..." Ying Li didn't say anything after hearing what the Great Wizard of Gana said.

The great wizard Janna looked at the crystal ball in front of her with a calm face. After her mood calmed down, she sat there like a talking stone and said to Ying Li in a cold tone: "In three days, there will be a Ra." The sea beast of Mars has arrived in the City of Abyss. At that time, I will arrange for you to return to Haiyinsi City in the Green Empire. Before that, you can walk around in the City of Abyss. I hope you can have an unforgettable experience in Abyss. Journey, Tia, get them out of here."

She sat on the high platform, her whole body seemed like an ice-cold stone, and the sad but sad tune was floating around her.

Finally I found out the name of the slender-waisted mermaid. Her name was Tia, which sounded pretty good.

After walking around the statue of the Angel of Destiny in the underground palace, the coldness surrounding his body gradually disappeared.

…

The mermaid Tia took us to the portal of Janna Palace. After she showed the seal to the guards of the teleporters, she led us into the portal.

A moment later, we walked out of another teleportation gate. As soon as we stepped out of the teleportation array, we felt the choking smell of sulfur and magma floating in the air. The air was filled with a large amount of fire elements, and the entire magic light shield was above A layer of black smoke floated, almost making this magic light mask lose its original transparency.

The Janna guards at the door of the portal are placed inside two oval-shaped bubbles, which are filled with clear sea water. The Janna guards are like baby chickens hiding in eggshells. They have two gills hidden on the side of their ears. The guard of Janna in the sea water inside the bubble is breathing through gills.

The mermaid Tia also hated the smell here. She took out a handkerchief from her arms, soaked it with water, and covered her mouth and nose with the handkerchief.

The slender-waisted mermaid stopped and said to Ying Li and me: "Prince Hit has been in the forging hall here recently."

The area covered by this magic mask is at best the size of a football field, and the entire mask is like a large blacksmith workshop.

This is like the edge of the city of the abyss. I can only see a lot of faint light from the left side of the light mask. On the right side is the endless dark and deep seabed. Occasionally, there will be a large piece of water swimming slowly near the seabed, almost transparent. I can still tell the difference when his body is pressed against the mask.

A river of lava winds through the center of the photomask. The magma on both sides of the river of lava continues to condense into volcanic rock. However, the magma in the center of the river of lava is extremely viscous, and from time to time a stream of gas will flow from the magma. The river gushes out, and a smelting workshop and forging workshop are built next to this river of lava. On the other side of the blacksmith workshop are piles of halberds and other weapons that Janna warriors are good at.

There was a clanking sound coming from the blacksmith workshop below the portal, and gray smoke kept coming out of the chimney of the workshop. This was probably the reason why the magic light shield was filled with choking smoke.

A group of Janna workers carried bundles of weapons and walked along the stone path of the blacksmith workshop to the arched connecting passage not far away. They formed a long queue.

The slender-waisted mermaid Tia suddenly stopped while walking. She took off a water bag from her waist and poured the water in the water bag from her head.

Ying Li quickly said with concern: "Miss Tia, are you feeling unwell? You should rest more."

When the mermaid maid Tia heard what Ying Li said, she smiled slightly and shook her head and said: "It's okay, I'm just not used to the environment here. I don't like dry places very much. Let's go, I'll take you to see Hit." prince."

Ying Li followed the slender-waisted mermaid and asked her, "Cousin Hit, does he like blacksmithing?"

The slender-waisted mermaid smiled, tilted her head and said to Ying Li: "In fact, Prince Hit will be quieter if he stays here than elsewhere, and he doesn't hate the smell of sulfur here."

Her long hair is smooth and straight, hanging down to her waist, and her big eyes can always tell us something extra unspeakable.

For example, Prince Hit likes to stay in the forging hall full of sulfur smell, probably to avoid some other troubles. This shows that his life in the City of the Abyss is not very good, and he has no sense of existence. Then Queen Wiki even forgot that there was such a person in the City of Abyss.

Here, it is rare to see those Janna people wearing gorgeous scales.

Except for the Janna workers transporting weapons, there were only some Janna workers carrying ore on their backs, lining up to approach a huge furnace. They threw the ore they carried on their backs into the furnace and left quickly from the other side. , and then returned to the ore pile.

Ying Li and I looked at each other.

The mermaid Tia probably saw the worry in Ying Li's eyes, and quickly explained to Ying Li: "Prince Hit will not move the ore here. He is one of the only blacksmiths in our Janna tribe, and he has a very outstanding skill." Blacksmithing. I can only bring you here, and it will involve some secrets of the Janna clan. Please wait here while I ask Prince Hit to come out to see you."

As she spoke, Mermaid Tia left us in a shed in the weapons depot outside the blacksmith shop, and walked into the not-too-large forging hall alone.

I sat in the work shed and looked around. For such a large city of the abyss, the scale of the blacksmith workshop in the magic light shield in front of me was really too small.

Such a blacksmith workshop is not even comparable to the scale of the North Duisburg Blacksmith Workshop. In the imperial capital of the Green Empire, there must be at least a dozen blacksmith shops of the size of the North Duisburg Blacksmith Workshop.

I am very interested in this furnace built by the Janna people because this furnace cleverly uses the underground river of magma.

This is similar to how dwarves built underground cities using underground mineral veins.

In an underwater city that is extremely short of fuel, it would be great to have a blacksmith workshop that can draw on the underground lava river.

"Maybe I shouldn't be so willful and come all the way here." Ying Li said to me with some regret when we were sitting in the work shed to rest.

I turned around, hugged Ying Li's shoulders hard, and said to her: "Actually, it doesn't matter if you come over and take a look. Maybe meeting Ariel was originally a wish hidden in your heart, and you just happened to find this way. It’s just an opportunity realized.”

Ying Li looked up at me with a complicated look in her eyes. She said: "Actually, I have always been hard to make a choice in my heart. I hope to become as beautiful as Qi Ge, but I also enjoy my current life. I'm worried When my appearance changes, this leisurely and pure life will never come back. Jijia, thank you for finding me among so many people..."

I leaned over and kissed her forehead, and whispered to her: "It was the goddess of luck who sent you to me. I should thank the goddess."

Every time he kissed her, she would blush and bury her head in her arms like a quail.

I held her heart-thumping and beautiful face with my hands and said to her: "In addition, this is not what a princess should say. You should become more confident."

She struggled to put her head in my arms and refused to lift it up again.

"Jijia, I want to return to the imperial capital." Ying Li said quietly.

I looked at Ying Li in astonishment and asked her, "Aren't you going to attend Princess Ariel's funeral?"

"I don't know either……"

Ying Li said with great tangle in his heart.

Looking at the dark seabed through the light mask, I didn't expect that on the first day we came to the City of Abyss, Yingli would feel a little homesick...
