Chapter 4: Ancient Dragons

As the sun sets, the main city of Moldavia begins to bustle in the evening.

Adventurers and hunters returning from exploring the Black Forest and the Great Ajax Mountains came to the taverns and trade streets in droves, and after working hard for ten days or more, they knew that they could not spend all their wages for the sake of future development, but they also understood that a night of luxury was a good way to relax, so the light of gold coins shone at the counter, and the sound of heroic laughter and clinking glasses echoed in the streets.

As the brightly lit shopping street continues on, the square in the center of the city, where the dim glow of the setting sun is replaced by another light.

In front of the central plaza was originally a pool used to store water to prevent fires, but since Joshua succeeded him, it has undergone many transformations, and now the pool has become a large fountain. The only drawback is that it can't be used in winter, as the mages who created the fountain haven't reached the point where they can convert the ice water element.

In the center of the fountain, there is an ice blue, texture is a bit like a crystal gem, in addition to being the core of the circle, this gem also has a lighting role at night, at night, the cool light blue light will reflect the beautiful scenery under the refraction of the fountain, very popular with the public.

Now, as the sun set, the cold blue light refracted in front of the square, and at some point, two men in mage robes suddenly stood in front of the fountain.

"Barnier, what do you think of this city?"

The speaker was a young man who looked very young, dressed in a black robe, with his flaxen hair unkemptly tied behind his head, and his raunchy image made him more of a wandering bard than a mage, and he looked at the fountain in front of him and the people who came and went around him with a subtle smile: "I didn't expect that there would be such a prosperous city in the north, and the number of adventurers was really beyond my expectations. ”

"I think it's okay."

Standing beside this young man was an old man who was meticulously dressed, his gray-white hair was neatly combed, his brows were furrowed, he looked at the ice blue crystal in front of him with all his attention, and answered his friend's question a little absentmindedly: "Of course, there is no way to compare with the Three Mountains Holy City, the Capital of Qiyao and the White Tower, but as the main city of an earldom in the Northland, the infrastructure is good enough." ”

As he spoke, a ball of light of the same ice blue light lit up in his hand, and the old man named Barnier pointed at it casually, and the ball of light sank into the core of the gem, he breathed a sigh of relief, and his serious expression immediately eased a lot: "I don't know who designed the magic circle by the junior, look at the runes of the third to seventh sequences, all of them are mistakes, omissions and mistakes, and I feel uncomfortable when I look at them!" ”

At this time, the gem that was the core suddenly bloomed with a bright light, and the seven-colored rainbow light flickered around it, like a rainbow after the rain, Barnier looked at this scene with a smile, and said to himself quite complacently: "I corrected his mistakes a little, and additionally added the conversion function of the major elements of earth, water, fire, scenery, shadow, and ether, not to mention the ordinary black iron level water element, even the silver high composite element can be summoned!" ”

"It's a pity that the texture of the material is too poor, otherwise, with my level, it would not be difficult to summon a water elemental elder with this pool of water." After being complacent, he also sighed with emotion, and seemed to be very dissatisfied.

"The legendary mage 'Rune Master' is like a bad old man with obsessive-compulsive disorder." The seemingly young bard shook his head, he had seen similar scenes countless times in the past few decades, and this old friend of his had always been like this, and when the two of them were adventuring together on the mainland, he often couldn't resist tampering with the local guardian circle, so that the two of them were often wanted everywhere, and even now, there were two bounties in some small countries in the West Mountains, and the reason was that it was laughable and laughable to 'destroy public health'.

Who told Barnier to restart the water system and spray the entire sewer drain onto the streets and even the royal palace the moment it was restarted? It was a spectacular scene......

So now, he could only complain helplessly: "This is the territory of the 'savior' in the final analysis, and if you modify the magic circle of other people's cities so casually, you will be regarded as a treacherous person who tries to leave a back door - you don't want another boring wanted warrant on us, right?" ”

"No problem, William, I've just strengthened its original function, it's a big deal to let him change it back on his own." Satisfied, Barnier turned his head, not looking at the gem that had returned to an icy blue color, but there was still a glimmer of rainbow light at the bottom, and he and his friend walked slowly towards the corner of the street not far away.

There, there was a peculiar tavern, now at noon, with its doors wide open, and many adventurers passing by, but without the slightest glance or intention of entering, as if it were completely absent.

And these two spellcasters were standing around the fountain where people came and went, discussing and casting spells wantonly, and no one noticed it, even the artificial intelligence that monitored the entire city was blinded, and everyone passed by them with a calm expression, without turning their heads for half a minute.

"He's back."

Suddenly, the bard named William stopped, and the seemingly raunchy, but actually serious caster, blinked and smiled: "It seems that our mission has been completed and we can leave." ”

"So let's go now?" Barnier hesitated, he touched his beard: "I haven't said hello to the Taling (No. 3) who has been trying to monitor us, and you and I are rare to get out of it now, I don't want to go back to the Eastern Plains so early." ”

"And you'd like to meet with him?" William asked.

"Of course not." The old man narrowed his eyes and replied quickly, "It's not time yet." The corners of his mouth curled slightly, and the old spellcaster said in a slightly sly tone, "If we meet now, then there is no reason for us to stay in the Northern Empire - I want to go around more." ”

After a slight pause in his tone, Barnier looked in the direction of the Great Ajax Volcano, and said leisurely, "In this land infested with ancient dragons. ”
