At dusk, the sun shines slantingly on the Tongjun Avenue leading to Yinchao City. Over a hill is a rather large town.
The real name of the town has been forgotten, and the merchants in the past nicknamed the town "Xiejiao Town".
"Xiejiao Town" is located in the center of a large hilly area, and this hilly area is the only way to Silver Tide City, but there are not many products around it. This is a very rare place in Leiding, which is full of mineral deposits. .
Without property, there would naturally be no human habitation. Because of this, there is only one town like this that can rest on the 150-kilometer-long Tongjun Avenue.
There were not many original residents in the town, because no products were produced around "Xiejiao Town", and even coarse grains were difficult to grow, so all daily necessities had to be purchased from outside.
However, it is precisely for this reason that everything in "Xiejiao Town" is much more expensive than outside. Coupled with the constant flow of businessmen in the past, the residents here are all wealthy.
Along the way, there were two old men with gray hair wearing thick sheepskin warm-weather clothes. They looked at the price lists hanging at the entrances of the shops on both sides of the street. The prices marked on them made one of the old men frown.
These two old men were so ordinary that no one paid them any attention.
No one could imagine that one of these two people was a world-famous forbidden curse mage.
After going around the town, Enleco and Fianna returned to the statue in the city center, where there was a little old man taking a nap in a simple wheelchair.
Seeing Xiling's pretentiousness, Enleco couldn't help but wanted to laugh a little funny, but Fianna stopped him immediately.
"Ah Da, how do you feel? Is there a suitable hotel? Your dad and I don't have much money!"
Xiling said, while she was talking, she felt secretly happy in her heart. Being able to take advantage of Enleco was the only pastime along the way.
"Everything in this place is expensive. It seems that our trip was in vain." Enleco said helplessly.
Hearing what Enleco said, Xiling clenched her fists and shouted angrily: "You unscrupulous traitor, you useless thing! Your father and I ate all the nuts along the way, so much that I felt My front teeth have grown out a lot, and I’m about to turn into a squirrel. I won’t go on the road if I don’t have a good meal today.”
Although her face was covered with thick makeup, Xiling was still able to express her angry look vividly.
"Okay, okay, I'll find a way to give you a good meal."
Enleco was afraid of attracting passers-by, so he quickly said in a low voice. He did look a bit like a son talking to me.
But no one noticed these three ordinary old men along the way.
"You are going to Yinchao City to visit the Poseidon's memorial ceremony, right?" A young woman in simple clothes walked next to her. She looked to be less than thirty years old. Her beautiful appearance had a peaceful smile, giving her a sense of peace. Very warm and sweet feeling.
"Yes, yes, the New Year is here. I have never traveled far in my life. I am about to die. I just want to take my two sons out to broaden my horizons before I die."
Xiling rushed to say: "But none of the three of us have ever traveled far, and we didn't expect that the expenses on the road would be so high. Alas..."
Xiling's acting is top-notch. A few words give people a feeling of desolation in old age, and even a hard-hearted person is softened.
The little woman had tears welling up in her eyes. She was obviously a kind-hearted person with a soft heart and was easily impressed.
Seeing Xiling making fun of kind people like this, Enleco could only sigh silently in his heart.
In addition to sighing, there is also deep shame.
"Old man, if you don't mind sleeping on the corridor, come with me. Although there are too many guests and there are no rooms, at least I can give you a good meal." The little woman said softly.
Following the little woman, Enleco and his party came to a hotel.
There are three buildings in front and behind this hotel, and the buildings are separated by two courtyards.
The further you go inside, the more luxurious the house becomes, and the garden becomes more tidy and beautiful. In the innermost building, the windows are decorated with gold-plated railings and hung with bright red velvet curtains. The exterior of the building is also covered with gold paint, although it is a bit tacky. But it is indeed quite luxurious.
When walking through the second building, the little woman hesitated a little, but she finally led Enleco and his party to the last, most luxurious building.
As soon as he walked to the door, Enleco immediately smelled the rich and fragrant smell of barbecue.
For them, who had been eating nuts all day for two weeks, the smell was full of temptation.
"It happens to be meal time." The little woman said with a smile.
The waiter standing at the door shook his head when he saw the hostess coming in with three old men who looked little better than beggars. They were used to this kind of thing.
Walking through the door, there is a rather luxurious hall inside. Two crystal chandeliers make the hall look spacious and bright. The four walls are decorated with mosaic paintings, and the corners are outlined with gold-painted lace, giving it a touch of aristocracy.
There was a long table in the middle, and both sides of the long table were already full of people. Compared with Enleco and the others, the guests were all well-dressed and obviously much more respectable.
Sitting on the main seat of the long table is an old man with gray hair. There is also a wheelchair next to him.
Sitting under the old man was a middle-aged man. When he saw the little woman walking into the hall, he immediately greeted her with a smile on his face.
In addition to the middle-aged man, there was also a child who jumped over and pulled the hem of the little woman's skirt, shouting "Mom, hold me".
Smiling and holding the little boy in her arms, the little woman said to her husband:
"I invited three guests, you won't blame me, right?"
The middle-aged man knew his wife's temper very well. He smiled and waved and asked the waiters to add three more seats.
The seats are at the far end of the table, but Enleco and the others, who are empty-bellied and have been tempted by the smell of barbecue for a long time, don't care about this.
As soon as he sat down, Enleco immediately ordered the waiter to bring him a plate full of barbecue.
Facing the fat and oily steak and the golden-brown salted pork knuckles, Enleco's eyes shone. There was absolutely no need for him to dress up now, and absolutely no one would be able to recognize his true identity.
Compared with Enleko, Fianna and Xiling are much more restrained, but they both look like poor old men who have been hungry for a long time.
The three people's devouring food greatly reduced the appetite of other guests, but since they were guests invited by the hostess, they had nothing to say.
"Mr. Duck, what's the latest news?" the middle-aged man asked with a smile.
"Alas! Since the Warriors Festival, it has been quiet and there has been no exciting news. The only thing worth mentioning is that the alliance has formed ten legions." A fat man said disapprovingly.
"Mr. Martin, this happened more than a month ago. You always heard more news than us when you traveled all over the country. I would like to know what's happening in Kaoqi?" asked a young businessman.
"Kaoqi?" An old gentleman with a weathered face pondered for a while and said: "Three days ago, I heard a friend tell me that Kaoqi added another corps at the border, but it has always stood still."
"Mr. Martin, in your opinion, will Kaoqi attack us?" the young merchant asked again.
"It's hard to say, but Kaoqi has been busy reforming its internal system recently. Even the Holy Knights' establishment has been completely broken up. It seems that they are planning to take action this time. I hope the Kaoqi people are busy with changes and won't have time to attack yet. Us." The old man said.
"Martin, have you heard about what I asked you to do?" the old man on the main seat asked.
"Hans, we have been friends for many years. I have always regarded your grandson as my own. I have tried my best to solve this problem. Alas..." The old gentleman sighed helplessly.
"Mr. Hans, what's going on? Maybe I can help. Maybe I have some friends up there." said the fat man next to him who was full of fat and luxuriously dressed.
"Alas..." The old man sitting on the main seat also sighed and said:
"Everyone, I have everything now, status, property, and fame, but I don't want my children and grandchildren to stick to this family business. The money I have earned for them is enough for generations to spend. I hope my little grandson can make My family is prosperous, and I originally planned to wait until my children grow up to learn martial arts under a certain master, but Hans brought me even more exciting news." The old gentleman said, "You should have heard of the Juggling Three. People group.”
"How could you not know this? It's so shocking." The young man said, and the others nodded.
"Among the three acrobats, the strongest one is the mad mage. He is not only a superb warrior, but also a magician with the strength of a great mage."
said the old gentleman, and the others were still nodding their heads.
Under the table, Enleco suddenly felt a foot kicking him. He turned his head and glanced at Fianna beside him. Fianna's expression clearly told Enleco that he was the most powerful of the three.
Fianna's eyes filled Enleco with a warm feeling, but from the corner of his eye, he also saw Xi Ling's disapproving look, but Enleco would never argue with this little girl, that was the last thing. Meaningful things.
He turned his head and listened to the old gentleman continue.
"Ten days ago, several things happened in Canelio. The first one was that the long-missing Frost Fairy returned to Canelio and married the mad mage. The Grand Duke Canelio also personally married him. They performed the wedding," said the old gentleman.
Enleco was startled when he suddenly heard the news. This was something he had not expected. Suddenly he felt Fianna beside him gently pushing him with her feet, as if giving him comfort.
Smiling towards Fianna, Enleco shook his head gently.
The news only surprised him, and he did not feel lost or sad because of it.
In fact, Enleco has always known that his fellow goblins have a special affection for Marklu.
In the past, Maclu had a deep fear of the goblins, so he never dared to face the favor of his goblin companions head-on.
Now that I think about the time when the goblin disappeared, Marklu has figured out a lot of things.
"But what can really be called news is not the wedding itself, but the news released by the Mad Mage after the wedding. He will build an academy in Carneario to teach magic and martial arts. He, the Frost Fairy and the Great Demon Tutor Khalit is the sponsor of this academy." said the old gentleman.
Upon hearing the news, the dining table immediately became lively and everyone was talking about it.
"Mr. Martin, what Mr. Hans asked you to do must be to register his grandson!" asked a well-dressed middle-aged man with a scholarly demeanor.
"Yes." The old man on the main seat nodded and said.
"Is there any trouble?" the scholars asked.
"Mad Mage and Master Kalit have a strange rule for recruiting students. They do not recruit the children of nobles and wealthy people, nor do they recruit disciples who are already under the disciples of other masters." The old gentleman sighed.
"Why?" shouted the fat man next to him.
"I don't know." The old gentleman shook his head and said.
"Didn't anyone ask?" the fat man said.
"Do you dare to ask questions to the mad mage?" the old gentleman asked.
After raising his head and thinking about it, the fat man shook his head. Many people had heard rumors that the mad mage was called the mad mage because he had a famous bad temper.
Anyone who can stand up straight in the face of a mad mage can already be called a brave man.
Come to think of it, who would dare to question the mad mage without risking his life
"Mr. Hans, don't worry, maybe there will be a chance in the future. Besides, there are still many magicians in the Kingdom of Leiding." The young man comforted.
"Yes, yes, by the way, Mr. Martin, what news do you know?" The scholar quickly changed the topic.
"Apart from these two events that are the most sensational, the only one that can be called news is the Ice and Snow Swordsman's wedding." said the old gentleman.
"Ice and Snow Swordsman? Which family's daughter is he marrying?" the young man asked.
"Haha." The old gentleman laughed happily, but Enleco could tell that the laughter was somewhat fake.
"You must have never imagined that the Ice and Snow Swordsman is not marrying the daughter of some family, but marrying himself."
Seeing everyone's surprised expressions, the old gentleman pretended to be proud and said:
"You must not have imagined that the Snow Swordsman was originally a girl. She is the granddaughter of the great wizard Kalit."
After hearing what the old gentleman said, everyone suddenly realized.
"No wonder, after hearing that the Ice and Snow Swordsman was equipped with a magic weapon, everyone was speculating whether there was some kind of relationship between her and Master Kalit. Master Kalit is famous for his high vision. Who can get his works? Several." The young man exclaimed.
"Who is the husband of the Ice and Snow Swordsman?" the fat man asked.
"Long Yi, a disciple of Master Kalite, is also the eldest son of Grand Duke Canelio." The old gentleman said.
"They are a perfect match, and only such a match can be called a suitable match." The old man on the main seat nodded repeatedly, and he seemed to have recovered from his loss.
"During the wedding, the ice swordsmen Karien and Long Yi also accepted a disciple together. I heard that he is the younger brother of Miss Monisha, the hero of the national defense." The old gentleman sighed and said.
"This is also what it should be. Miss Monisha sacrificed her life for Laiding. Laiding should treat her family well." The old man on the main seat nodded slightly and said.
These words made Fianna and Xi Ling feel a little desolate and sad.
Fianna was better off, after all, she was not the one who gave the order.
But for Xiling, all this is the nightmare she least wants to think of.
She had buried her guilt about Monisha deeply in her heart, but suddenly it was all re-exhumed and presented to her eyes because of other people's unintentional chatter. Nothing made Xiling feel more sad than this.
What made her even more sad was that she still couldn't show any flaws and had to play the role of the old man in a wheelchair.
"The Ice Swordsman and Long Yi, the Frost Fairy and the Mad Mage, these two pairs are very well matched. It's a pity that the acrobatic trio now lacks the Clown King."
The fat man muttered to himself.
"Of course, it is well known that the Clown King has a crush on the Frost Fairy. Now that the Frost Fairy is married to the Mad Mage, why is he still staying with the Frost Fairy?" said the young man.
Even Enleco felt uncomfortable now. Although the relationship between the three of them was not as rumored, he still felt that these words were shocking after he had just suffered a small blow.
"What a sad love story. I have long wanted to meet this talented gentleman who always hides his face behind a clown mask." The little woman said softly with a smile.
Enleco suddenly felt his toes being stepped heavily on by Fianna next to him.
Fianna actually has such strong jealousy, which is something Enleco did not expect.
"Only ordinary women value overflowing talent and elegant demeanor. Women with real vision care about the strength of a man. Although the Clown King is powerful, the Mad Mage is even more powerful. It is natural that the Frost Fairy would make such a choice. That’s it.” said the young man.
"Mr. Lalit, please repeat these words to Madam when you go back." The little woman said with a smile: "If it is what you said, the Ice and Snow Swordsman should not marry Mr. Longyi, but Marry the clown king who defeated Mr. Longi.”
"Dear, I think the Clown King is a person who is extremely persistent in love. He loves the Frost Fairy wholeheartedly." The husband said lovingly. Although he said the Clown King, everyone Everyone can see what he really wants to express.
The little woman blushed slightly. She gently picked up the child and fed the child to hide her shyness.
"I wonder if there will be any new tricks in this year's Poseidon Memorial Ceremony?" Fatty said suddenly.
"I heard that a group of beautiful women will be selected to perform as the maids of Poseidon." The young man said with great interest.
"Nothing new. I've been here once three years ago." The fat man shook his head and said.
"But I heard that after this performance, the most beautiful woman will be selected and given the title of 'Queen of Poseidon'. The winner will receive a bonus of 10,000 gold coins." The young man said.
"Interesting and interesting." Fatty laughed repeatedly, but from the look on his face, it was obvious that what really interested him was not the performance itself.
The people next to the fat man secretly shook their heads at the fat man's roughness. Only the young man could still talk to him enthusiastically.
"Mr. Hans, do you know if there are any ships going to Endro after the Poseidon's memorial service?" A couple who had never spoken before suddenly asked.
"Endro? Mr. Ange, the situation is so tense now. You should cancel your original itinerary. All channels leading to Kaoqi have been stopped. No one is willing to risk crossing the patrol line at this time." The main seat The old man shook his head and said.
"Isn't there a war yet?" asked the wife of the couple.
"The current situation is no different from that of a war." The old man shook his head and said.
"Mr. Ange, why are you in such a hurry to go to Ndro?" the young man asked.
"My brother-in-law was detained by the officials there. I have to bring the money to redeem him." The husband said with a worried look.
"Mrs. Ange, if I were you, I would stop my husband from taking such unnecessary risks. Going to Ndro under the current circumstances will only cause your husband to be trapped there. Those Kaoqi people will not It is well known that you have good intentions." The little woman said slowly.
"Mr. Ange, even if you want to go, you must at least bring a few skilled warriors with you. Once you are detained by Kaoqi, you can escape and come back."
The little woman's husband said calmly, but his intention was obviously not to really advise the gentleman to bring some experts with him. His real intention was just to put pressure on the helpless lady.
In fact, everyone here regarded the wife who was about to put her husband in danger as an unreasonable idiot.
"Mrs. Ange, unless you seek the help of those smugglers, no ship will be willing to sail thirty miles away from the coast. The furthest it can only go as far as Bawat. Going further south is taking risks.
"It is absolutely impossible to go to the Kaoqi Kingdom. If you plan to take the land route, you will be plundered by the Kaoqi army on the border. The barbarism and greed of the Kaoqi people are well known." The old man said in a serious tone.
The wife was frightened by the crowd, and her tears flowed silently.
"Mr. Hans, as far as I know, even smuggling ships no longer go to Kaoqi. All goods that can be sold at a good price in Kaoqi are now strictly controlled, and it is extremely difficult to get them. The mines and foundries are now under strict surveillance, and even orders within one year have been cancelled. The alliance will pay for all losses." Fatty said, obviously he knew this information very clearly.
"Yes, first it was refined iron nuggets, gold, silver, copper, and tin, then crystal ores, and now even mercury, sulfur, and vitriol have all become strictly controlled goods." The young man shook his head and said.
"In that case, why not take this opportunity to eliminate those smugglers?" A middle-aged businessman next to him who had not spoken suddenly interrupted and asked.
"Sir, you don't know something. Most smugglers are also from Lading. They will not help Kaoqi for profit. What's more, all smugglers must be inextricably linked to the Pirate Island. I'm offended. The smugglers have indirectly offended the pirate island, and under the current situation, the pirate king Rosem is probably the most reliable person," the scholar explained.
When the pirate king Rosem was mentioned, those who lived closer to the seaside all fell silent as if some taboo had been triggered.
There was silence on the dining table, everyone lowered their heads and enjoyed the delicious food in front of them.
After dinner, the little woman took Enleco and the others to the far end of the corridor. There was a place where debris was piled in the corner. Although the place was not spacious, it could sleep three people.
After instructing the waiter to spread a blanket on the floor and bring a quilt, the little woman smiled and said: "Although this place is a little rough, it is very quiet. You stay here for one night. I will ask Mr. Martin to take care of you tomorrow morning." You go to Silver Tide City." After saying this, these little women picked up their children and turned around to leave.
"The place here is so small, how can we sleep three people?" Xiling complained.
"Don't you know how to express gratitude to others for their kindness?" Enleco said.
"I didn't ask her to help us, and we're not homeless beggars." Xiling argued, "They put you in this corner because they were afraid that you would wander around and be embarrassed. Don't be ignorant. "Xiling turned her back to Enleco and mocked.
Fianna saw the two people quarreling again, and immediately came to break up the fight, comforted Xi Ling aside, and gave the best position to this unreasonable little girl. Fianna turned around to comfort Enleco.
"I want to go out for a walk." Enleco said softly.
"Okay, okay, you go out and relax. The hostess here is very kind and shouldn't care about these things." Fianna pushed Enleco out.
Wearing an old cloak, Enleco strolled along the corridor. He didn't notice the waiters looking at him strangely.
The garden in front of the building is quite elegantly arranged. A row of dwarf pines and a few silver cypresses divide the garden into several independent small areas. There is a greenhouse on the west side where various flowers are planted. The glass on the four walls was covered with moisture and dew condensed everywhere. It was obvious that the owner here was not very proficient in gardening.
Enleco saw the door of the greenhouse open and walked in casually.
After entering the greenhouse, he realized that there were already people inside.
An exquisite pavilion was built in the center, with several people sitting in the pavilion.
There is a wheelchair in the middle, and the old man is sitting in the wheelchair. To the right of the old man is his friend, the old gentleman Mr. Martin. The kind little woman is sitting with her husband, and the child is on her mother's knee. Playing.
Enleco's arrival shocked everyone. Just when Enleco was about to withdraw, the old master said: "Sir, if you are willing, please come over and have a chat. I am very happy to be of the same age as you." People who have entered the twilight years of their lives talk.”
Enleco walked to the pavilion and sat down in a corner next to it.
"How should I call you?" the old man asked.
"You can call me Star." Enleco said.
"Mr. Star, you are going to Silver Tide City to visit Poseidon to pay tribute." The old man said with a smile.
"Yes." Enleco replied briefly.
"Is that old man your father? Does he live a long life?" the old man asked.
"Eighty-seven." Enleco said. This was something they had discussed in advance, so he could say it casually without hesitation.
"It's really rare that an old man who is nearly ninety years old is still so energetic."
The old gentleman next to him sighed, and it could be heard from his tone that these words really came from the heart.
"Where is your hometown? I would like to consider whether to spend my remaining years there." The old man asked kindly.
"Mirror Lake City." Enleco said. Apart from Canelio, Mirror Lake City impressed him the most in the Riding Kingdom.
"Ah! That's such a wonderful place. Not only does it have picturesque scenery, but it also has world-famous wine." The old man said with a smile, and the old gentleman next to him nodded in agreement.
"It's a pity that for people like me who don't know how to drink, the world-famous wine is no different from hypnotic potions." Enleco said shamefully, which reminded him of the first time he met Miss Monisha in Vedsk. acquaintance scene.
"That is indeed a pity. By the way, Mr. Star, what line of work do you do?" the old man asked.
"I can be considered a blacksmith." Enleco said, this is a profession that he and Fianna found after long discussions that would not reveal their flaws.
"Ah! I didn't expect to meet an expert." The old man said with a smile: "I happen to have a few good swords. Although I have asked experts to identify them, most of them are compliments. Those who criticize and belittle often want to promote themselves. merchandise, alas, to this day I still don’t know if these swords are really worth collecting." As he spoke, the old man ordered his son to get his collection.
"The air here is too humid, let's forget it." Enleco stopped.
"Yes, yes, let's go to my study." The old man said happily.
The little woman pushed the wheelchair, and the others followed behind, and came to the old man's study.
The study room is located on the east side of the building. One wall is entirely a large bookshelf filled with various books, and the other wall is in front of a row of standing cabinets.
Opening one of the cabinets, the little woman's husband carefully took out nine beautifully decorated long swords.
Enleco took out one of the handles and took a look.
That sword can only be called a high-end product. The sword body is made of pure steel using cold forging. The blade is quenched at a reasonable temperature, and the blade is sharpened by hand.
Pulling out the long sword and waving it twice, Enleco felt that the sword was a little hung in the wind, but the strength was fairly even.
Putting the long sword back into the scabbard, Enleco pulled out another long sword.
This long sword is a weapon forged from broken iron. The blade naturally forms a wavy pattern, and a stream of light slides along the blade. It looks very beautiful.
"This one is top quality." Enleco nodded and said.
Putting the sword back to its original position, Enleco pulled out other long swords.
Most of the old man's collection consists of high-end items. Although some of them are engraved with inscriptions and seem to be the work of a famous master, the quality is not very good. Only two long swords can be called top-grade.
While watching Enleco's appraisal, the two old men nodded. In their opinion, the down-and-out old man in front of them was the real deal. He had sharp eyes, and they could tell a real good sword at a glance.
Seeing a connoisseur of goods, the old man in the wheelchair said excitedly: "Mr. Star, I have another collection that I would like you to take a look at."
Seeing his father's high-spirited expression, the little woman's husband naturally understood that his father was going to show off the long-cherished weapon again.
Without waiting for his father's instructions, the son turned around and took out a long sword from behind the bottom of the cabinet.
Compared with other long swords, this long sword looks much plainer, with only a white wood scabbard and a rubber hilt.
Seeing the owner here carefully holding the long sword, Enleco immediately understood that the old man was just testing him, and the real collection should be the long sword in front of him.
Gently pulling the long sword out of the scabbard, under the sunlight, a layer of light quickly slid over the sword. This was indeed a top-quality long sword. Enleco could feel the long sword even a foot away. The sword exudes a chilling air.
"Yes, it is indeed a good sword." Enleco praised.
"It seems that you are used to seeing famous swords. You are the only person I have seen who is so ordinary when facing this sword." The old man in the wheelchair said with a smile.
The old man's words made Enleco suddenly startled. He then realized that he had revealed his secret. This was indeed a top-quality sword. Even if you were not an expert, you could see this. The martial arts in the Kingdom of Leiding was extremely strong, and ordinary people could see it. There is absolutely no way such a famous sword could be so peaceful.
Looking back, I thought about the reason why I had unknowingly exposed my flaw. It was indeed as the old man said. I was used to seeing weapons that were much better than this long sword.
Even artifacts and magic weapons have to be classified into three, six or nine grades when they are in their hands, not to mention that these are just ordinary weapons with superb craftsmanship.
Now he wants to make excuses to cover up, but he is afraid of self-defeating. In addition, Enleco has a good impression of this family and does not want to deceive them with hypocritical lies.
After thinking about it for a while, Enleco asked: "Mr. Hans, you originally planned to prepare this long sword for your little grandson!"
"Yes! I asked Master Tomarian to make this for me after many twists and turns." The old man nodded solemnly and said.
"Marian?" Enleco knew nothing about this name.
"Have you not heard of this name? Master Marleyan is a famous weapons manufacturer. He is the third disciple of Master Mileage and the chief master of the Alliance Foundry." The old gentleman said in surprise. Indeed, as a blacksmith company It is strange that I have never heard of Marian's name.
"Ah! It turns out he is a disciple of Mile Qi."
Enleco nodded. This attitude surprised everyone. The two old men couldn't figure out Enleco's details for a while.
With such a big tone, it seems that few people in the Kingdom of Leiding can do it. Apart from the Great Mage Kalit, who is known as the "God of Forging", perhaps the only one who has been fighting with Master Mileqi all his life is Ma. Master Ge.
But Master Mag is a short, fat man, definitely not the wizened little old man in front of him.
The two old men became even more puzzled. What's more, although Master Ma Ge is superb in skills, his character is not very good. He is arrogant, arrogant, and has a huge pomp. There is absolutely no way he will look like this. .
Except for these three masters, the other weapon craftsmen are all their juniors. When the name of Master Milege is mentioned, they are absolutely respectful.
Seeing the puzzled expressions of the two old men, Enleco lowered his head and looked at the child held in the arms of the little woman.
The child is quite beautiful, his eyes are twinkling and very lively, he is really cute.
Overjoyed and grateful for the little woman's hospitality, Enleco took out a thin blade from his pocket.
This was something he made when he was idle on the road. It was originally a broken iron hook picked up on the roadside. After mastering the mental vibration, Enleco could create weapons out of thin air. However, with his current strength, he could only Make something small.
Most once told him that the gods used this method to create artifacts out of thin air, and that the gods could easily create a bunch of artifacts (just think about the proliferation of rational hearts and soul eyes in those days, you should be able to imagine How easy it is for gods and demons to make artifacts).
In addition to the experiment, another reason was that Xiling forced herself to raise travel expenses along the way.
He usually picks up some scraps of copper and iron to make decent weapons. At first, Enleco was bent on relying on this method to raise the money for the ship ticket to be handed over to the smugglers.
However, Fianna and Xiling both warned him that once this kind of thing appears in Silvertide Port, the controller will immediately know that he has arrived there.
He is as famous for his ability to craft artifacts as he is for his ability to cast forbidden spells.
Although I gave up this idea, I have already made a lot of gadgets.
The ones that looked elegant and beautiful were taken away by Xiling, a greedy little girl, and kept as a collection. What was left behind were some semi-finished products that she thought were awkwardly shaped or half-finished.
Although it is a semi-finished product, compared with the top works of those masters, the gap is still obvious.
It was a half-finished dagger, and Enleco hadn't had a chance to put a handle on it.
Lan Yingying's blade flashed with silvery cold light, and the famous sword that had just been taken out and placed next to it immediately became eclipsed.
After a while, thick frost condensed on the edge of the dagger. The dagger seemed to be absorbing the heat around it, making everyone tremble.
The little boy even hid behind his mother, but he still couldn't help but look around curiously.
"My...my God, this...there is such a magical weapon in this world." The old man in the wheelchair murmured to himself.
The old gentleman was speechless. He knelt down and gently touched the glorious dagger.
"This is a work made by Master Kalit when he was young. At that time, he was not as famous as he is now." Enleco pretended to be filled with emotion.
Suddenly, he drew the dagger like lightning, and the dagger's light remained in the air like a dazzling lightning.
"Its name is Burning Frost, and the power of ice is sealed on it. Anyone hit by it will immediately freeze all over. No other wounds will be found on the deceased except frostbite."
Enleco said this and handed the dagger to the old man's hand.
"I am already old and will never have the opportunity to use this weapon in my life. Just treat it as a meeting gift and give it to this child. Take this dagger to Kalit. I think he will accept your grandson. "
Enleco looked at the innocent child and said: "The reason why the mad mage does not accept rich children from the nobility must be because he is worried that they will not be able to endure hardship. His martial arts and magic must be acquired through hard training. It is best not to Force it, but take this thing and go, even if they don’t take this child in, I think they will give him appropriate guidance.”
The old man seemed to wake up suddenly and suddenly said: "Mr. Star, you are so neglectful of your Excellency. Andrew, go and prepare the best room for Mr. Star."
"No, no, no, Mr. Hans, if you want to express your gratitude, the only thing you need to do is to keep this secret for me, especially not to mention it in front of my father and brothers.
"As you can see, my family is not as poor as it seems. This special trip was entirely due to my father's willfulness and the old man's sudden childlike innocence. I also hope to make this trip a success. It’s a rare trip to be able to continue without a hitch.”
The old man and the old gentleman nodded repeatedly, as if they could fully understand the mood of an old man entering the twilight years of his life.
As for the couple, they have long attributed all this to the gods' reward for their wife's kindness, and this down-and-out old man is obviously the messenger sent by the gods to the world, full of infinite admiration and gratitude for Enleco .
"Mr. Star, what are your plans for the future?" the owner here asked respectfully.
"We plan to welcome the New Year in Silver Tide City and visit the annual Poseidon Memorial Ceremony. This is something I have planned since I was young. I didn't expect that I would be busy with official duties and would not have the opportunity to go out for a trip until I retired." Enlai Co said, pretending to be old, his tone full of infinite regret.
"After the memorial ceremony, we may take a boat to Lusip to visit an old friend who lives there, but we may also take a boat to Green'aner Channel to see the long-famous Sword Cliff Bay and appreciate the Ichiban is the sacred place where Founding Father Weston once realized the true meaning of life." Enleco said with a smile.
"Living in Lusip, your friend must be Master Badit, the great architect and inventor." The old gentleman said with admiration in his tone.
Even Enleco himself didn't know that he would accidentally create Master Badit, but in order to cover up his lies, he nodded repeatedly as a matter of course.
"Mr. Star, I'm afraid your trip will be in vain. Master Badit has rushed to the border a few months ago to take charge of repairing the fortifications. If you want to go to Greenland Strait, it will not be easy. It will be very easy." Few ships sail to the east, there is a lack of supply ports in the east, and there is no profit in this journey, but I can rent a ship for you, which can be regarded as a small expression of my gratitude." The old man said solemnly .
"I'm afraid this is too troublesome for you, and I don't want my old father to see the flaw. He is really a very sensitive person." Enleco said with a frown.
"Don't worry about this. I will do it perfectly. The boat will be parked at the dock for you. I will let every crew member remember your appearance. They will naturally have a set of words that will satisfy your father. Running the boat It is normal for people to have one or two guests by the way. I think this reason can completely satisfy your father." The old man said quickly.
Enleco nodded with satisfaction. Now he finally accomplished a big thing.
Riding and Montita face each other across the Greenland Strait. Standing on the top of the mountain, when the weather is clear, you can even clearly see the coastline of Montita. You can easily reach the other shore using flying skills. Such a close distance can even make you control The investigators found that they did not have time to intercept.
Enleco, who thought he had arranged everything properly, happily bid farewell to the owner here and returned to the corner of the corridor.
Seeing Enleco coming back happily, Xi Ling asked coldly: "What did you give to that child?"
Hearing what Xi Ling said, Enleco was stunned on the spot. Fianna next to him chuckled and said: "We already know your character clearly. You are too soft-hearted and will never be able to act with peace of mind." When you accept kindness from others, you will definitely try your best to repay the other person's kindness. Just now we were guessing what kind of thank you method you would choose."
"You made a lot of gadgets along the way. Kalit's eyes are very sharp. He will definitely be able to tell that it is your work at a glance. Give one to the child. The child can be used as a weapon and a letter of introduction. You Is this the plan?" Xiling said coldly.
"I'm afraid I asked that little woman to keep it a secret for you and not even let the two of us know about it." Fianna said with a smile.
Enleco slumped to the ground in frustration. In front of these two senior spies, he really couldn't hide any secrets.
"Looking at your proud look, the other party must have given you a satisfactory reward. It is a ship that can be deployed at will, right?" Fianna asked.
"Nothing can be hidden from the two of you. I told Mr. Hans that I planned to go to Greenland Strait, and he would prepare a ship specially for me." Enleco said.
"You want to fly to Montita through the strait?" Xi Ling asked coldly.
Fianna on the side shook her head and said softly: "If we can escape from the Sword Cliff Coast, we will go in that direction from the beginning. One month is enough for us to get there on foot!
"It's a pity that that road is absolutely impassable. Whether it's us, Kaoqi or even Montita, they have all deployed heavy troops in this short sea area. There is absolutely no problem for ships to pass through the country's waterways. , but once it deviates from the waterway or a magician flies out of the ship, it will inevitably be attacked from three directions."
"You don't need to feel discouraged. As a last resort, we can control the crew and let them take us anywhere. There are shoals all along the coast of the Montita Kingdom, and we can go ashore anywhere."
Xiling suddenly interrupted.
"However, it is better to find a smuggling ship that is safer. Regular merchant ships are all equipped with monitoring devices to ensure that their whereabouts can be known at any time." Fianna said.
"Can't the device be dismantled?" Enleco asked.
"Demolition will attract suspicion. It is a last resort choice. However, if you don't care about exposing your whereabouts and allowing the organization to still follow you, you can definitely take us to Monti Tower in an open and honest manner, even if someone Interception, with your ability you can easily get rid of them." Xi Ling curled her lips and said.
As soon as he thought of the terror of those in control, Enleco immediately gave up the idea.
For him now, Montita is the only place to stay. If it becomes known to the whole world, it may not be that simple to live there in seclusion.
