Today is Tuesday, May 23, 574th year of the Holy Light Calendar. It is said that the Holy Light Calendar was formulated by the leader of the Brotherhood, the stonemason Riggs O'Hill. He led the uprising armed forces to drive the evil magicians out of the continent of Farea, and established the Amslang Dynasty that unified the continent of Farea. The year was set as the first year of the Holy Light Calendar, suspending the thousands of years of Dark Calendar. Currently, all countries in Farea Continent basically implement the Holy Light Calendar.
In four days, it will be Saturday, May 27th. In the history of the Kingdom of Ovilas, this is the anniversary of Prince Kargat ascending to the throne of King Stirling IX after winning the Tricolor Scepter War. After his death, Stirling X, who succeeded to the throne, instructed the House of Lords to propose that this day be set as a statutory holiday in the kingdom and named Revival Day to commemorate the great cause of the revival of the kingdom by the great Stirling IX. .
The school was on holiday on Sunday, plus the school would hold a Renaissance Festival celebration on Friday morning as usual, and there were no classes in the afternoon, so Claude and the others had a rare two-and-a-half-day holiday.
You must know that this world is different from the time traveler's previous life. The school does not have summer vacation and winter vacation. There is only one semester throughout the year. The school starts in mid-February and does not have vacation until November. The two-month holiday during the New Year is called annual leave. Or also known as Cat Winter Vacation. This is because in the Farea continent, this period of the year is the coldest season, with heavy snowfall. Most people spend the winter indoors as cats, and rarely go out to work.
Now that they had two and a half days of vacation, Bockaar and Erikson started planning where to go very early, and Claude and Verricro were naturally indispensable. It's just that the ideas that Bokoal and Erikson came up with were not very reliable. In the end, it was Vericro who proposed to camp at Bailuzhou, which won everyone's unanimous approval.
Bailuzhou is less than 20 miles away from Bailu Town, a stone's throw away, but Claude has never been to Bailuzhou. This is because between Bailu Town and Bailuzhou is Lake Beringa, which is more than ten miles wide.
More than a thousand years ago, when the mountain people in the southwest saw the legendary white elk, which symbolizes happiness and tranquility, wandering on the shores of Lake Beringa while hunting, they took their wives and children to settle here, and Bailu Town was born. The same is true for Egret Island. There were countless egrets on the island a long time ago, so it got its name.
It was only later that people discovered that Bailuzhou, which they thought was separated by a lake from Bailu Town, was not a hill or an island by the lake. To be precise, Bailuzhou was actually a stretch of land that separated Lake Beringa, Bailu Town and the sea. Separated by seaside hills. Thanks to the barrier of Bailuzhou, the roaring sea wind and turbulent waves have never posed a threat to Bailu Town. The only harm is that the sea water intrudes several times a year due to spring tides, causing the water in Lake Beringa to rise and overflow the dam, causing a slight It's just a flood.
It is said that there are egrets and countless seabirds on Bailu Island, as well as sea otters, stone foxes, mountain leopards and other exotic animals with precious and valuable fur, as well as countless medicinal herbs worth collecting, and the products are extremely rich. But few people in Bailu Town are willing to go to Bailuzhou.
There are no other reasons. One is the danger, and the other is that there is a large ruins on the continent. Legend has it that they are the remains of a magic tower that collapsed hundreds of years ago. The evil magician was involved, so that Bailuzhou was artificially cast an evil shadow in people's word of mouth, and no one wanted to go there to cause trouble for themselves.
Bokoal and Erikson have not been to Bailuzhou either. Among the four friends, only Viriklo followed his father and went there twice during the annual vacation in the previous two years, once to hunt stone foxes and the other time to hunt for stone foxes. Gather an herb.
So Verikro said that the proposal to go to Bailuzhou to camp for an adventurous vacation was welcomed by two bold guys, Bockal and Erikson. Youth means curiosity, but also impulsiveness and courage. As a time traveler, Claude didn't care about the so-called terrifying and evil legends on Bailuzhou. On the contrary, he was very interested in the ruins of the collapsed magic tower and was ready to go and have a look, so he acquiesced. .
"By the way, Claude, after lunch we climbed over the back wall and went to Old Munch's Grocery Store on the old street to sell the two leathers that Vero brought, and by the way, we checked at his store to see if there are any. What we need." Bockar said softly, pointing to the package that Viricolo brought under the desk.
Claude nodded. The wall in the woods behind the school was soaked by heavy snow and rain and collapsed in half.
