The City Hall of the Third Flame City is located in a small square in the very center of the city. In the square here, there is no fountain, no garden, no square birds, and even almost no ornaments, the square only has a stone floor paved with stone slabs, and there are nine statues standing on the ground, the images of the statues are all mages, they are more than 3,000 years, in the field of knowledge exploration has made significant contributions to the mage lords, in order to commemorate their achievements, but also in order to encourage and spur themselves, most of the mage lords will establish such a group of statues in the center of the capital of their territory. This style of arranging the square fully reveals the character of these mage lords in the country of mages, they only have exploration and research in their hearts, and they are not interested in anything that has nothing to do with it, even if those seemingly useless decorations can actually adjust the living environment in the territory, they will not put any energy into construction, in their eyes, these are like art, they are meaningless things, not worth caring.

In the Mage Nation, the Mage Lords live on high floating islands, looking down on the Nether creatures like gods, exercising their absolute control over their territory, but it is clear that in order for the territory inhabitants to create a steady stream of wealth for themselves to use for research and experimentation, the lords must personally perform administrative functions and manage the production of the territory, otherwise the territory will eventually become a drag and will no longer be able to provide them with any resources. As a result, the mages had to build a town hall on the ground to serve as a liaison base in order to issue administrative orders to control their territory. If you want to enter the floating island, except for the demigod mage who can use the slow flight technique to slowly fly up, the only way to teleport is to teleport at a fixed point through the teleportation circle in the town hall. But. This teleportation method has the biggest problem, it needs a fixed spatial coordinates to locate, but because the floating island is moving according to the preset route most of the time, it cannot provide fixed coordinates at all, so if you want to land on the floating island, you must choose to teleport within five minutes after the hour, and the floating island adjusts its direction in the air within five minutes.

"So that's why you two sneaked out for a drink?" Catherine squinted at Pannis. A look of dissatisfaction. Just as he was approaching the town hall, Pannis looked at the time. He found an excuse to break away from the girls, and went to a tavern in the center of the city with Moore, and when the girls came over, they found that there were several empty wine glasses on the table in front of them. The remaining glasses were filled with the oddly flavored highland brown rice wine. Brown rice is a highland specialty, most of the Butte people will eat brown rice as a staple food, and the remaining brown rice is used to make wine, brown rice wine looks more viscous than other types of wine, and has a very strange taste, combining the sweetness of the wine's sour champagne with the spicy taste of ale, among other things. It also has a slight bitter taste, which is not very strong, and it is easy to think of a cup of black tea in the afternoon. Several flavors are mixed together. It may sound hard to accept, but if you taste it yourself, most people will love this specialty, but although the highland brown rice wine does not feel strong to drink, it has a lot of stamina, and many tourists do not know the strength of brown rice wine. I drank too much brown rice wine and almost died of drunkenness on the plateau.

For this kind of ungentlemanly behavior of Pannis. The girls unanimously rolled their eyes with disdain, but the smart girls didn't say much, they also knew that the two were very good friends, and after all, they hadn't had in-depth communication for a long, long time, and the last time they met because Pannis wanted to hide his identity, so there was no chance, this time they just wanted to find a place to catch up, which was completely understandable. So, Catherine just made a threatening look at Pannis's bared teeth from an angle that others couldn't see, so she politely turned around and nodded to Moore, and sat down next to Pannis.

"Tsk, it looks like Your Majesty is in trouble. The girl's performance clearly could not escape Moore's observation, and the singer, who had lived for five or six hundred years, sighed, and let out a soft exclamation of unknown meaning from his mouth.

"Ah, why did you talk about her all of a sudden?, what's wrong with Vral?" asked Pernis, inexplicably, "What's the trouble?"

"You guys are so pathetic. In response to Pannis's reaction, Moore sighed weakly and said to the girls: "Although our positions are opposite on this point, I suddenly began to sympathize with you. ”

Apparently, the maidens were not expecting sympathy from the elves, and Catherine smiled wryly and took a sip of one of Pannis's glasses. As a girl who loves wine, Catherine has long heard of the reputation of highland brown rice wine, but she has never had the opportunity to drink it, and today she tasted it for the first time, and she was surprised to find that it tasted really good. However, as soon as she wanted to take a second sip, Pannis snatched the wine glass: "This kind of wine is too strong, if you don't want to go to see Fira in an unstable state for a while, it's best not to drink more than half a glass, otherwise you will definitely regret it." ”

After tasting the mixed taste in her mouth, Catherine sighed regretfully, wiped the wine stains that almost didn't exist on the side of her mouth with a standard manner, and said with a straight face: "Okay, then don't drink it, we have prepared the materials you asked us to find just now, but we have studied it for a long time, and we haven't figured out what you want these materials to do." ”

"That's right. Vivian nodded on the side and said: "Rootless flowers, golden swallow leaves, ivory balls, these are all alchemy materials, you won't also be a part-time alchemist, the most exaggerated is the mountain stream vine leaves, actually fresh rather than dried, there are not many alchemy material stores will have this kind of raw materials for sale, we almost ran to a quarter of the city and didn't find it, and finally in exchange for contributions in the mage guild, what are you going to do with them." ”

"Of course it's for eating, you only have alchemy materials in your eyes, but you forget that before you become alchemy materials, these things are actually weeds, and many of them can be eaten as wild vegetables. Pannis took a fresh vine leaf from Vivien, put it under his nose and sniffed it, and said with nostalgia in his eyes, "Didn't we often gather wild herbs to eat with our prey during our adventures?" ”

"So ......," said Catherine in a deep voice, "Master Phila liked to eat these wild vegetables you made back then?"

"Oh, guess right, no one else knows how to prepare these wild vegetables, although he firmly refuses to admit it, but every time he eats a lot of it, far more than his normal appetite. Pannis chuckled and said, "Since you are visiting, and it is at lunchtime, it is always polite to bring a few gifts, give me a few minutes, and I will go to the kitchen of the tavern, and we will visit in a moment."
