My Magic Age
Chapter 484 282. An's concerns
The display in the lounge is not so luxurious, on the contrary, it is a bit simple. There was just a heavy wooden long square table placed in the center of the room, surrounded by four benches with backrests. The workmanship was poor, and the marks of the axe's chops were still clearly visible. There is a row of oak wardrobes placed against the wall. The cabinet doors are carved with patterns of lotus trees and ivory towers, which look a bit like the scene in the Magic Academy in El City.
The long square table looks very old, and the varnish has been worn off in several places on the table. There are several exquisite porcelain plates placed on it, but no food can be seen. The flames on the candles on the candlesticks are Like a dancing fire elf, emitting soft light.
The square table was piled with bottles of golden apple cider, and the rich aroma of wine wafted out from the house. The most left in the wine cellar were golden apple cider of various vintages.
Two female slaves with blushing faces were sitting at the square table drinking. The golden liquid exuded an alluring luster in the transparent glass. They raised their beautiful faces with drunken eyes and looked at me standing at the door blankly. I was a little overwhelmed for a while. A woman with long white hair, covered with a thin layer of gauze, boldly walked from the house to the door, looking at me with blurred eyes, she puffed up her towering chest, making her chest appear Dazzling white.
Her skin was well maintained, white and smooth, and she looked like the kind of woman who never did menial work. She stood at the door with a graceful figure. She saw that the chains binding Demi had been cut off, and she looked at me, Becoming a little wary.
However, I saw that she could move around freely in this room without any shackles of slave status, so I guessed that her status must be unusual.
She lowered her head and asked An beside her: "An, who is he?"
"Aunt Alia, he is Jijia, the person who came in from the outside to save us! He is the apprentice of a great and mysterious magician!" An said, it turned out that this is what I felt in An's heart at the moment, An has her own understanding of the magic apprentice: she is actually the apprentice of a great and mysterious magician. I don’t know how Teacher Heidi will react when she hears An’s evaluation of her.
It turns out that this is Count Zimmerman's sister. She looks very young, or she is well-maintained. There is no trace of fat on her body, and her whole body is still full of youthful vitality.
"What about Anthony?" Aaliya looked at me in surprise, hugged An in her arms, and asked An again.
An pointed at Anthony lying on the ground not far away. At this time, Demi was groping for something on Anthony's body. After a while, she found a set of keys. She got up from the ground, and when she passed Aaliya, she and She hugged her and said excitedly: "Aunt Alia, we are saved, this magician saved us!"
The woman leaned on the door frame in a dazed state, hugged An tightly in her arms, and said, "Thank you to the Statue of Liberty!"
"You should thank the water goddess Eva. I am Jijia, the water magic apprentice of El City Magic Academy. I am deeply sorry for the suffering you have suffered!" I said to Aaliya.
At this time, she quickly put her down and bowed deeply to me. Her aristocratic gesture was very elegant, and she looked like a woman with an orthodox aristocratic education. She said to me: "Thank you very much for your help, Mr. Magic Apprentice."
Demi opened one of the doors in the lounge, and the sound of a woman crying miserably came from inside. The two people dressed as slave girls who were sitting on the bench in the lounge drinking golden cider leisurely turned ugly for a moment when they heard our conversation.
At this moment, I am secretly fighting. Drought man's body 凵忊议ǖ囟halo should carry the skeleton of the white 魑phan笞迥心簦庋The pen swings to the right and the 笞箸艉 plays Qian JЮ竦木忣ΩMagnesium 郦簞 rebel bad pong stunned �
Her words made me feel a little embarrassed, but it was difficult for me to control my eyes from looking at that plump body. Her body was like a magnet with strong attraction. Although her face was not beautiful, she had that kind of maturity. The aristocratic woman's style is displayed so vividly that she doesn't even need to wear
That waist-cinching palace-style evening dress did not require expensive jewelry or a maid to hold the skirt for her. She just stood there casually, looking like a noble lady.
"Do you mind if I handle some of the Zimmerman family's personal affairs?" Aaliya said to me as if she had thought of something.
I felt like my face had a fever and I shook my head quickly.
Aaliya turned around and saw a woman trying to shrink into a corner. She walked over, stood in front of her, stretched out her hand to pull her hair, and dragged her out of the corner. The woman knelt on the ground, her hair pulled by Aaliya. Ya held it in his hand and tried to straighten his body as much as possible to relieve his pain, but he did not dare to resist at all, nor did he ask for mercy.
He raised her head and slapped the woman hard. He didn't stop until he hit her face like a pig's head, and kicked her to the ground again.
I stand here very embarrassed. Now that Demi has found the key to the lounge, she should be able to solve things here by herself. I think she is a strong girl. Compared to Demi, Aaliyah She has more of the intelligence of an aristocratic woman, and she is more tactful when things happen.
From the fact that she was imprisoned in the lounge without a slave collar, we know that she is better at protecting herself and can handle things around her in a more favorable way. Demi and Ann are grateful to Alia. Unlike other women in the room who ignored her directly, Alia must be secretly helping the siblings.
Ann came out from the inner room of the lounge, looking at me with red eyes. He held the musket tightly in his hand, with deep hatred in his eyes, and said to me: "Ji Jia, I want to save the others in the manor, I want to kill them with my own hands!"
I said: "Okay, if you are not afraid of nightmares in the next few months, I don't object to you doing this."
It seems that he doesn't understand why I said this, but the first time I killed the gray dwarf robber, I rested in Katarina's room for a long time before forgetting those things.
…
After walking out of the lounge, I suddenly found that Anthony's body lying outside had been turned over by someone. I looked at the fat chef Joseph, but I saw only a large pool of blood under the row of wine barrels. Joseph, who was stuck under the wine barrel shelf, was gone.
I looked at the blood on the ground that had not dried yet with some regret. They should not have gone too far.
Unexpectedly, in the short few minutes after I entered the lounge, Joseph's other two companions actually rescued him.
I said to An: "Tell your sister to lock the door of the lounge from the inside. They found me. I will go to find them. You stay in the lounge here."
"I want to go with you!" An said stubbornly.
I thought it would be good for him to go out for some exercise, so I said: "Okay, take care of yourself, and be sure to stay by my side."
I loaded a copper bean on his pistol and taught him how to use the pistol. He practiced shooting against the stone wall a few times, and then he followed me with full confidence with his pistol.
The magic crystal fragment on the hand gun looks very new, and there is no wear and tear on the barrel and the mechanism. When An shoots, the crosshairs are also very accurate. It seems that Benjamin must have spent a lot of thought on this hand gun. He must want to make up for the defect that magicians cannot fight in close combat, so he thought of giving me such a smart and convenient hand gun!
Since they have been discovered, there is no need to cover up. I cast the "Ice Shield Technique" on myself. The three ice shields slowly rotate around me. Four stone drum totems of different colors emit a real glimmer in the wine cellar and also float around my body.
Whenever this happens, when the blue crystal stone drum totem is beside me, constantly condensing magic power from the void, making the magic elements around me become very full, Sister Guoguo's water element body will appear, and she will absorb the elemental power condensed by the blue crystal stone drum totem with me.
An on the side looked at me enviously, with a curious look in his eyes, and asked me: "Ji Jia, is this the power of magic?"
"Yes, these are the power of magic!" I nodded to him and said.
Following the bloodstains, we found Joseph, who had been dead for a long time, in a hidden corner of our wine cellar. His broken leg was bandaged, but it was a pity that the treatment was too late, and his two companions could not save his life.
Seeing the newly cut knife marks on the oak barrel next to him, it must be the two people who vented their anger.
I am worried that the physiques of these two people are as good as Anthony. After all, the two people are engaged in the profession of the manor. One of them, named Hank, is a horseman, which means that his horsemanship must not be too bad. In addition, raising horses is a physical job. Giving water to horses, cutting hay, scraping horse sweat, and cleaning horse manure are all physical jobs. Without a strong body, it is difficult to raise horses well. Every civilian in the empire will serve in the military when they are young. Being able to survive on the battlefield is sometimes a manifestation of one's own strength.
Count Zimmerman himself is a great knight of level 15, so there are several pure-blooded war horses in the manor. The fodder of these war horses will be added with nutritious soybeans, but they cannot be raised too fat, otherwise they will not be able to run on the battlefield. It is also the daily work of the groom Hank to take them to the pasture regularly to run freely. This groom is not a simple civilian.
This wine cellar, which is comparable to a football field, is really too big. The total number of wine barrels stacked in rows exceeds 30,000. Originally, there were candles on each stone pillar here, but later these candles on the wall were collected, and the whole wine cellar became dark and became a natural place to hide. If someone wants to hide in the wine cellar and not come out, even if more than a dozen people look for him at the same time, it is difficult to find him.
I didn't expect that they would rescue Joseph who was in trouble as soon as possible, and they also learned about our strength from him. They knew that I was a magic apprentice, and they were afraid to hide. I had no way at all.
"Is there any good way to find them?" I asked, sitting on a wine barrel.
An scratched his head in distress, and suddenly had an idea and said, "Let's lock up the food stored in the other two warehouses. Without food, they will run out of hunger!"
I think this is how these guys treated An a few days ago.
"Forget it, if I have that time, I can rescue you, so just leave them here. It's better to leave them here to fend for themselves. Of course, you have to take everything with you before leaving. I don’t object to food.” I said to An: “Maybe Captain Cynthia is trying to dig out this huge wine cellar, and we will be saved by then!”
"It's a pity that once the wine cellar is dug up, these golden ciders can't be saved!" An told me. In An's eyes, these golden ciders seemed to be the greatest wealth left to him by his father.
He sat on the wine barrel and kicked the barrel with his heels, making a dull sound: "Dad told me that what those barbarians want most is the cider stored in the manor. These barbaric members of the Storm Bear tribe Humans are different from the barbarians of the Celtic tribes. They came to the extremes of the ice and snow tundra. In the northern land, it is even colder. They don’t care about the income from minerals. They are born to be predators. The most important thing is that these barbarians of the Storm Bear tribe are addicted to alcohol, although golden cider does not suit their taste. Taste, they prefer ale, but it’s better than nothing!”
Finally Ann said: "Even if we smash them all, we can't leave even one barrel of these golden cider to those savages!"
An's heart was filled with hatred for those barbarians, but then again, who among the residents of Sloit Province didn't hate these slave-hunting barbarians? I said: "One day, I will also capture these hateful barbarians and let them taste what it is like to be slaves."
"Yes, let them taste what it's like to be a slave!" An said angrily. The seeds of hatred had already been planted in this little child's heart.
"You will inherit everything here in the future. You will be the new earl of Zimmerman Manor. Don't let yourself bear so much hatred!" I comforted him and said.
"I don't want to manage such a manor. I hate those common people!" An curled up, hugged her knees, buried her head and whispered to me: "My father gave them such a good job and gave them food and clothing. I lived a carefree life in the manor, but what did they bring to me in the end? My mother, aunt, sister and me? Dad's other women were destroyed at the hands of civilians. They will bear those stains for the rest of their lives, and the honor of the Zimmerman family will be tarnished. When I grow up, I will join the army and kill those savages. I won’t give other noble friends a chance to humiliate me, I want to become a great knight like my father!”
I originally thought that An was too young and didn’t quite understand things about men and women, so he turned a blind eye to Demi and Aaliyah’s outfits and scars. I didn’t expect that he just didn’t say anything. In fact, he cared more about it than anyone else. It's clear that he pretended not to understand, just because he didn't want to make Demi and Aaliya more sad and ugly.
He looked at me and said, "If possible, I would use all the wine in this cellar to exchange for the death of both of them."
I looked at him in surprise...
An looked at me firmly and said: "I don't want them to take the secrets in the wine cellar out, and I don't want to leave them even a chance!"
I asked him in surprise: "Aren't you afraid that I will tell anyone?"
He hesitated slightly and finally said what he was thinking: "So, I will beg you! Help me keep this secret!"
I thought for a while, and I really couldn't handle this aristocratic child with such heavy thoughts too casually, as he might accidentally turn a good thing into a bad thing, so I asked him: "I need to sign a 'magic contract' with you and me." ”
Sure enough, there was joy in his eyes, and he immediately looked up at me and said, "If that's okay!"
"Of course, after we return to El City, we will go to the magic grocery store to buy a magic contract scroll!" I sighed secretly and said to him.
People in this world have great trust in magic contracts. They believe that once the contract is established, no one will violate the magic contract.
At this moment, An's face looked much more relaxed, perhaps having settled the biggest worry in her heart.
"I will definitely repay you, Jijia! The Zimmerman family has more than just this background!" Ann said to me.
I thought that maybe when he saw Captain Cynthia, he would ask her to destroy the golden cider in the cellar together with the two people who escaped, so I persuaded him: "After we get out, let's bury it here." , When there is a heavy snow, who will know that there is so much golden cider hidden here? Maybe when the flowers bloom in spring next year, you will be able to receive the huge wealth here again! "
"I have decided that I will never come back again!" An suddenly looked at me and asked: "It is said that magicians will have some magical abilities. If you can destroy these golden cider, we can't Can we find Hank and Joe? Jijia, can you turn all this golden cider away?"
"Maybe... I do!" I said to him after a slight hesitation.
On New Year's Eve, Xiaozhu spent time with his relatives in his hometown. On this occasion of the New Year, Xiaozhu wishes everyone good luck and good luck in the new year and all their wishes come true!
