My Magic Age

The entire wall outside the ice house was covered with a thick layer of ice. Two barbarian slaves shoveled off the thick layer of ice and snow on the stone door and used a crowbar to open the stone door. The strong cold air rushed out from inside, and instantly filled the cave with white mist.

Su stood outside the cave, looking up at the cracks on the top of the cave, and said to me:

[I hope readers will remember our domain name Taiwan Novel Network →🆃🆆🅺♦🅽.🅲♦🅼]

"I remember this ice house. You brought me here."

I put my arm around Su's shoulders. Unknowingly, she was as tall as me.

There was an indescribable bitterness in my smile. I said to Su: "The last time I brought you here, I hesitated outside the cave for a long time. I didn't tell you the truth because I was not ready at that time. But this time I brought you to the swamp jungle, actually I want to tell you the truth of this matter... Come in!"

I pointed to the door of the ice house that was pushed open and walked in.

Annie couldn't wait to follow me into the ice room. She endured the cold air coming out of the ice room and stepped over dozens of "continuous frost" rune plates on the floor of the ice room. Her leather boots stepped on the thick ice chips, making a crackling sound.

The ice room was covered with ice. These thick layers of ice squeezed the originally spacious stone room into a very narrow space. It was in such a narrow space that a huge ice monument stood in front of the three of us. I walked over slowly with a heavy face and stood in front of the ice monument. It was biting cold, and I slowly wiped the frost and snow on it with my hands.

A translucent ice monument appeared in front of us. I raised a magic lamp. Under the faint magic light, a translucent figure was reflected in the ice monument...

"This is my sister..." Su couldn't help but exclaimed after approaching.

Hearing Su's exclamation, Annie also rushed to the front of the ice monument, staring at the ice monument, and tears burst out at once.

She gritted her teeth, reached out to touch the ice monument, and asked me: "Why is she frozen in the ice? How did she get here?"

Su's eyes were also tearful. She knelt in front of the ice monument and cried sadly: "Is she dead?"

"Strictly speaking, she died ten years ago." I said to Annie and Su.

Su threw herself on the ice monument, her pale face pressed tightly against the ice monument, as if she could throw herself into Sister Guoguo's arms like this.

Only under the refraction of magic light can the ice elemental spirit of Sister Guoguo in the ice monument reveal its general outline. Annie stared at me and asked, "Tell us quickly, what happened? Why is she lying in this ice coffin?"

I slowly slowed down my breathing and said to Sister Annie, "This is just the elemental spirit of her soul that remains in this world."

"Sister Guoguo died at the hands of Mondetroya in the battle of Baipu Cliff. Before her death, she happened to be incarnated as an unconscious water elemental spirit. Because of the war shackles in Mondetroya's hands, her soul was trapped in the war shackles."

"Later, Mondetroya came to El City to find me. With the help of Teacher Heidi and Moraya, I killed him and got the war shackles from him. In the war shackles I found the water elemental spirit of Sister Guoguo who retained the memory fragments. Perhaps because of some instinct, the water elemental spirit of Sister Guoguo has been with me. She has been growing up over the years and gradually began to have self-awareness. "

"I was worried that the water elemental spirit would awaken before the memory in her soul was awakened, so I asked Scholar Sean of the Royal Magic Academy to seal it in the ice monument, hoping to delay her awakening time. Later, I learned from Lord Bruce of the Imperial Capital Magic Research Institute how to use ancient relics to awaken the memory fragments in Sister Guoguo's soul. I spent two years preparing for this trip to the Savage Swamp. "

These words sounded a little incredible, involving undead magic and knowledge about the soul level. Annie stared at me.

Su asked me, "You mean, after my sister died, she turned into a water elemental spirit without memories. You took us all the way to the Savage Swamp this time just to complete a ritual to wake up my sister?"

I nodded and stood by and said, "That's the case, but Sister Guoguo is no longer a water elemental spirit. She has been promoted to a high-level ice elemental spirit under the nourishment of the ice monument. If it weren't for the fact that the ice monument could no longer suppress this high-level ice elemental spirit, I actually wanted to complete this task after graduating from the Royal Magic Academy. Unfortunately, Sister Guoguo seems to be a little impatient!"

Even if it is an ice elemental body, it belongs to the elemental world. Ordinary people cannot see the elemental spirit.

Sister Guoguo's ice elemental spirit showed an outline in the ice monument, which means that some changes have occurred in her body, but it was sealed during the change process. However, even scholar Sean can't say how long this state can last.

"You mean..." Annie seemed to understand the hidden meaning of my last sentence.

I nodded affirmatively and said to her, "Even if there is a seal on the ice monument, Sister Guoguo's ice elemental spirit will awaken, so I have to awaken Sister Guoguo's memory before it awakens."

Annie leaned her back against the ice monument, and her strength seemed to be drained away at this moment. She sat on the ground along the ice monument and muttered to herself, "How long has she been lying here?"

"About two years!"

I touched my nose and said, "For about three years, she stayed with me in the form of a water elemental spirit, but no one could see her."

She whispered: "You could have told us earlier. Over the years, I have become accustomed to her not being with us anymore. She left when we were most hesitant and helpless, but is she coming back now?"

"Annie, our sister...she is still alive!" Su was trembling all over, crying in the arms of her sister Anne.

The sudden news left Anne at a loss. She opened her mouth and wanted to say some words of comfort to Su, but she didn't know where to start.

I could only pretend to be strong and hugged Su and said: "I dream that one day she will suddenly appear in front of me, even if she has nothing, even if she is disabled, as long as she can come back..."

…

I felt that Anne and Su should be given some time and space to slowly accept these things, so I turned around and walked out of the stone room, leaving Catalina waiting outside.

I walked over to the Magic Seal Workshop. In the past half month, the Magic Seal Workshop has completed more than half of the magic pattern construction of the Naqma black iron armor for the barbarian slaves. It can currently be armed for at least six months. There are hundreds of barbarian warriors, and the magic engraving machine that prints the simplified version of the metal armor magic pattern structure is also being debugged intensively.

The technology of the magic seal machine has been basically mature, so many uncertain factors in debugging work have been reduced a lot. The number of dwarves in the magic seal workshop has increased to 180. This group of dwarves usually likes rum. , I just like to work hard in the blacksmith workshop and the magic seal workshop.

North Duisburg has begun to forge large quantities of this standard full-coverage black iron armor. I believe that it will not be long before this mass-produced metal magic pattern structure will appear in the magic market of the imperial capital.

There are turnover boxes piled up on both sides of the magic seal workshop. The turnover boxes contain the base materials for various magic rune boards. A group of female half-orcs are moving these turnover boxes to a rail car. These finished rune boards It will be transported to the warehouse near the teleportation altar. As for the scrap, it will be melted and forged into iron ingots first, and then transported back to the North Duisburg Blacksmith Workshop in batches.

Although these female half-orcs have heavy work every day, during the period of living in underground caves, their work and rest schedules are completely in accordance with the standards of the imperial capital. Life is no longer so difficult, and their diet has been greatly improved. The rough skin has faded away, and although the skin is still the dark gray of an orc, it has a brocade-like luster.

Although the female half-orc is not full of muscles like those beast girls, her arms and legs are also tight, and iron knots will bulge every time she exerts force.

Four female half-orcs can push a rail car. If it were replaced by Green Empire people, at least ten adult men would be needed to push it.

Walking to the resting area of ​​the barbarian slaves, there was a swamp crocodile roasting on the bonfire, a heavy crossbow hung on the stone wall next to it, and a black iron structure of the Naqma people. The armor was neatly placed next to the stone wall, and a group of barbarian slaves were drooling and waiting next to the bonfire.

When he saw me appearing in the underground cave, Lao Zewang limped with one foot and struggled to catch up from behind.

Panting, he called to me: "Lord, please wait..."

When did I accidentally become a lord?

Seeing Lao Zewang running over, these barbarian slaves quickly covered the bonfire and looked at Lao Zewang warily.

I could only turn around and stop, and asked the current manager of the underground cave: "Old Zewang, what do you want from me?"

Lao Zewang glared at the barbarian slaves angrily, but he still had some sense and did not complain to me in front of the barbarian slaves. Instead, he pulled me out of the barbarian slaves' living area and came to a remote place. In the corner of the house, he kept pouring out bitter water to me.

The wrinkles on his face were like withered chrysanthemums, and he showed a set of big yellow teeth with a grimace.

He complained to me: "These barbarian slaves are too good to eat, and they must eat meat for every meal. If they are not satisfied, they will grab... the frozen meat reserve in the incubation room. Look, Karan As soon as Cuo and the orc warriors left, the big stupid cow and Jia Stes stopped watching here. Almost no one can restrain these big guys. Otherwise, you can find a way to take them away. I can't manage them. If this continues, they will soon kill the young spiders in the incubation room. All the reserve rations have been used up.”

Unexpectedly, after losing the restraints of Justus and the minotaur Ruka, this group of barbarian slaves actually acted wantonly in the underground cave.

"There is such a thing, okay, I know about this matter, and I will find a way to solve it." I frowned and said, thinking about whether to let the tauren Luka return to Xinliu Valley, maybe Just Si is more suitable.

After all, eight hundred barbarian slaves were brought to the swamps of the tropical rain forest. Not to mention that they were not adapted to the hot climate there, our team's goal would suddenly become bigger.

I waved my hand to Lao Zewang and asked, "Is there anything else?"

Lao Zewang's wrinkled face was twisted and he smiled bitterly at me and said, "Of course it's not just this. There are also female half-orcs who work in underground caves who hope to return to the orc village for vacations regularly."

I said disapprovingly: "What's the point? Can't we just try to arrange some days off?"

Although these female half-orcs are all slaves, I feel that they have integrated into the orc village. I have proposed to Lao Zewang before that these female half-orc slaves should be arranged to take leave according to the treatment of workers in the rune making workshop of the Imperial City. No Thinking of Lao Zewang taking the initiative to bring it up this time.

I want to praise him for his progress in thinking...

Just listen to Lao Zewang licking his face and saying: "I mean, look at my old arms and legs. I have been squatting in an underground cave for several months. Can you give me a few days off..."

Okay, pretend I didn't say that.

I patted Lao Zewang's skinny shoulder, looked at his old face and said earnestly: "It's okay if you want to live in the orc village forever, but before that, you have to recommend an orc manager to me with prestige and brains." Need both..."

After hearing what I said, the old orc turned away with a desolate expression and said vaguely:

"Forget it, I'm holding on for a while!"

…

Annie and Su walked out of the ice room, their bodies covered with a layer of hoarfrost. The two girls were a little lost, and they leaned on each other and walked silently to me.

Su's little face was blue from the cold, and she fell into my arms like a piece of cold ice. She hugged me tightly and rested her head on my chest, her body trembling constantly. , I don’t know if it’s because my mood is still hard to calm down, or maybe I’m frozen by the cold air in the stone room.

Annie also looked pale. After walking out of the ice room, the frost and snow on her face began to melt into water droplets and drip down her face.

The two barbarian slaves closed the stone door, and I took them back to the teleportation altar.

Su held my arm and walked beside me. Her big, delicate and smart eyes were a little red and swollen from crying. After the frost and snow on her long golden hair melted, her hair became strands, dripping with water.

In order to prevent small reptiles from accidentally getting into her trouser legs, she wore a pair of high leather boots and a leather armor, which was better than a cool suspender nightgown to keep out the cold.

"Will sister wake up?" Su leaned her head on my shoulder and couldn't help asking.

It was a bit cold in the cave, so I took out two towels from my magic pocket, threw one to Annie, and put the other on Su's head. I rubbed her blond hair vigorously and said, "Of course, this time I entered the wild swamp. For this."

"You should have told us earlier," Sue complained to me.

I stretched out my hand and pinched her face as smooth as egg white, and said in a soft voice: "I'm sorry, this is my fault. Let me see, Su Dou has grown as tall as me, and he still cries easily... "

"If you include the prosthetic limbs, I'm taller than you!" Su suddenly raised his head. Although there were tears in his eyes, a smile appeared on his face.

Anne, who was following me, asked me: "Is this your private plane?"

I nodded and said, "That's right, every magician has some secrets."

It could be seen that Sue had never mentioned this place to Annie.

We came to the teleportation altar, and I pulled Su and stepped out of the teleportation gate.

Anne shouted after me: "Jijia..."

"Huh?" I stopped.

"Thank you!"
