Throne of Magical Arcana

With a bang, the heavy door of Longya Tavern was pushed open and hit the wall, and the noisy and lively atmosphere suddenly fell silent.

The drunkards with red faces, the adventurers and mercenaries who ate the famous barbecue at Dragon Tooth Tavern and talked and laughed loudly subconsciously turned their heads to look at the door, and found a handsome and calm black-haired young man in the middle of the day. Slowly walking in the sunlight, he was wearing a neat light blue shirt, with a gorgeous long sword hanging from his belt, which was more decorative than practical.

Sharp whistles sounded one after another, and the drunken drunkards hiccupped and hissed: "What did we see? A handsome noble young master. Did his cute toy kill wild dogs?"

"Another young man who was poisoned by knight novels and dared to take risks with a ritual sword." Although the adventurers and mercenaries were not as unscrupulous as the alcoholics, they still talked carefully about this noble boy. As the middle and lower classes of society, apart from awe and yearning for nobles, they also have unspeakable jealousy, especially when they see trash-like guys enjoying a high life just relying on the glory of their ancestors.

Lucien passed them unhurriedly and walked towards the bar.

After more than two months of wonderful travel, Lucien arrived yesterday evening in the border town of Longya, the principality of Djibouti in the south-central part of the mainland.

A sturdy bald-headed adventurer looked at Lucien's arms, which were not slender but not thick, raised his arms that were exposed outside the leather armor, bent his elbows and shook his strong muscles: "I bet, with his Poor thin arms, probably don't even have the strength of a trainee knight attendant. Tsk, imps full of fantasy often don't inspire blood power in adventures like knight novels, but become the prey of robbers, wild wolves, or goblins."

"Hmph, is the strength of a knight so easy to obtain? I have experienced more than ten years of adventures, and I am only as strong as a high-ranking knight attendant." A short and strong man who seems to have dwarf blood said arrogantly and proudly, "Of course, if he accepts my guidance, there may be hope to stimulate the blood power. You know, Lord Newell of Arrow City became a knight under my training."

The lifelong wish of the vast majority of adventurers here is to inspire their blood to become knights, so although they have heard Chris show off many times, they still can't help casting envious, longing, respectful and eager eyes, which makes them more and more excited. Happy.

Lucien turned a deaf ear to the discussion, walked to the high stool in front of the tavern owner and sat down. He was an elderly, burly old man.

"Dear guest, what do you need? Fine wine or barbecue?" The tavern owner with gray hair and vicissitudes in his eyes asked politely, and he was not uncomfortable because of Lucien's incompatible clothes and temperament.

Lucien nodded lightly: "A glass of water, a barbecue, and a salad. Also, I want to inquire about something."

The central and southern part of the continent is surrounded by mountains and densely covered with deep valleys. There are inaccessible forests everywhere, but unlike other places that have abundant resources, only wood and ordinary beasts, it is the most barren and backward place in the entire continent. Often a village can find There is less than one person who can read and write. In addition, it is located in a safe area, and there has not been a war for many years. Therefore, even if the bloodlines of several countries here are stimulated, they can only obtain the title of knight, and cannot directly obtain the status of territory and nobility. Enough land can be canonized.

The Counties of Djibouti are the same as other countries in the central and southern parts of the mainland. The nobles can still rely on lumber mills, land and fresh prey to maintain a decent life, while the common people are far inferior to Alto. In the town, the adventurer's guild is also opened directly in the tavern, and according to Lucien's inquiry, the tavern owner in front of him is also the head of the local adventurer's guild. If you want to obtain information, it is most suitable to find him.

"Wow, Bai Shui, what a pure and good boy."

"I suspect that he hasn't started to grow hair yet. How dare such a kid come out and take risks to stimulate blood power?"

The drunkards burst into laughter, but Lucien was unmoved and looked at the tavern owner calmly.

"No problem, dear guest, what do you want to inquire about? I will charge you according to the value." The tavern owner ordered the waiter to prepare the barbecue and salad, and at the same time poured a glass of water for Lucien himself.

Lucien moistened his lips with white water: "I would like to inquire about the current location of Taylor Hunter and his wife. He was originally an official in the small town of Bonn in the Principality of Viorit. He was invited by Baron Eric of the Principality of Djibouti nine years ago. to be steward of his domain."

Taylor Hunter and his wife are the parents of the little girl Wraith that Lucien met in Bonn, the Necromancer World. They were too sad after their daughter disappeared, so they chose to accept the invitation of the foreign lord and stay away from home. Since Lucien had promised To bring the ashes of the little girl home, he simply re-planned the journey to the Pearl of the Sea. Anyway, he enjoyed the trip the same way, and along the way, Lucien also enjoyed the flavors of different countries and the unique music of different places.

The tavern owner shook his head without hesitation: "This kind of trivial matter is not within the scope of our intelligence. But I will tell you privately that the affairs officer of Baron Eric's territory is not Mr. Hunter. Maybe he has already accepted another invitation. This kind of thing is too common. You can go to the nearest Cosel city hall to check the records in this regard. This is the city belonging to Viscount Stanley, the lord of Baron Eric. If you still can’t find it, you must go to Baron Eric’s The territory inquired."

"Thank you for your suggestion. Is there any news worth noting on the mainland recently?" Lucien took a horse-drawn carriage for ten days in the remote and deep mountains before resisting Longya Town. There is no place to inquire about information on the road.

The owner of the tavern smiled and said: "One message is one silver Gnar, respected guest, do you want to hear it?"

"Ten messages, thank you." Lucien directly took out a quintal.

Those adventurers and mercenaries were stunned by the glittering gold coins. Instead of laughing at Lucien, they stared at him with complicated eyes. The moment they made a move, it was a gentaler. As expected of a luxurious nobleman, two or three of them You can earn so much a month. Some guys are already thinking about whether to temporarily change jobs to robbers.

The barbecue was brought over, and Lucien took a bite with a fork, and the delicious gravy filled his mouth immediately, and it was no worse than Alto's high-end restaurant.

The tavern owner took out a stack of crumpled papers and read slowly: "More than two months ago, Alto, uh." He raised his head and gave Lucien a slightly strange look, "The town of Bonn was destroyed by necromancer magic. The most beautiful musician Sylvia and his father were killed. The heroic grand knight Princess Natasha tried her best to kill the evil necromancer, but she was also seriously injured and recuperated in the monastery. It is said that Natasha Princess Tasha broke through and became a sky knight in this battle."

"Hehe, this is a rare and wonderful battle in the past ten years."

"Blood burning syndrome... No wonder Natasha was able to temporarily suppress it at that time, so she really advanced to the rank of Sky Knight." Lucien thought silently, "It took two months for this incident to finally come out."

If becoming an official knight is a hurdle, then it is an even more difficult pass from a great knight to a sky knight. Since the great knight's own life form has not been sublimated, although it has strong resilience and strength, it is based on the premise of extreme physical consumption. If it cannot break through, it will have a shorter lifespan than ordinary knights. Of course, it is not difficult for a strong man with the strength of a great knight to obtain some magical plants, potions, etc., and in the end he can still live to be about a hundred years old. The sky knight broke through the limitations of the mortal body, and can live at least two hundred years.

In the following nine reports, there was probably another friction between the north and the heresy, and several great lords of the Gusta Empire in the south began to recruit mercenaries, as if they were preparing for another civil war, and a team of adventurers discovered on the southern edge of the Dark Mountains An ancient ruin, acquired a lot of treasure and more.

After listening to the information and eating lunch, Lucien wiped his hands with a white handkerchief: "I'm going to Koser City, and I need to hire guards and a carriage."

Although Lucien's own strength is enough to support him to travel to the east of the mainland, but under the premise that he has an identity and can easily pass the checkpoint, it seems more convenient to recruit mercenaries and other guards with sufficient money. Lucien does not want to waste time on Robbers, goblins, and wild beasts who are not even capable of knight attendants, might as well be sent by mercenaries, and quietly analyze and learn other rings of magic in the carriage. When you can enjoy life, you must know how to enjoy it.

During these more than two months of travel, Lucien has successively built five more one-ring magics in his soul, reaching the current limit of soul strength. The other one-ring magics can only temporarily rely on spell-casting materials, incantations, etc. display.

The five first-level spells are: Magic Missile, Sleep, Grease, Feather Fall, and Colorful Spray.

And because most adventurers and mercenaries are unwilling to stay too far away from familiar areas or family members, they only accept escorts for a certain distance, especially the coachman, so Lucien has to re-hire them every once in a while.

"A very wise choice. Hehe, you must know that the central and southern parts of the mainland are places where there are many legends about vampires and black magicians."

The owner of the tavern was obviously taken aback. He also thought that Lucien was a noble boy who was out on an adventure, but he quickly covered up his abnormality with a smile, and pointed to the corner of the tavern, "Two of the three adventurers there are high-ranking A warrior with the strength of a knight attendant, and an archer with the strength of a knight attendant, and has a good reputation, you can talk to them as a guest. I will help you arrange the carriage driver. It will take eleven days to get to Koser City."

Although the forests in the central and southern parts of the mainland do not attract strong people, they are inaccessible, and there are many horror legends about ancient castles in deep mountains, underground tombs and evil witches.

Lucien followed the direction pointed by the tavern owner and saw three very calm adventurers. They were a man and two women. The man had thick arms and short hair. The two women looked alike, and both had elf-like long ears. , but a mature and glamorous woman with a two-handed giant sword by her side, and a young and pretty woman with a delicate short bow on the table in front of her, seeming to be half-elf sisters.

They are listening intently to the troubadour's moving serenade, and from time to time they gently keep pace with the beat.
