"Mickey!Mickey!" two cries rang out from outside just as Cook's nose could sense the heat on Mickey's nose.
"Ah, it's Mentor!" said Mickey as she broke free from Cook's embrace, then opened her eyes wide in surprise before slipping out of Cook's room like a kitten.
Cook shrugged his shoulders helplessly, but Cook was already happy, because he had determined the relationship with Mickey, and after Cook was helpless, he jumped up excitedly, lay on the bed all of a sudden, and began to fantasize about the happy life of the big landlord, and unconsciously fell asleep.
"Mentor. Mickey pushed open Lori's door and whispered.
"Mickey, come here, it's the magic spell of the fireball spell you've always dreamed of. Lori smiled and handed a scroll to Mickie, in fact, what happened just now, for a magician's spiritual power, Lori found out very easily, Lori didn't know how to deal with this matter, to say that for Cook, Lori has not yet reached the point of love dying and alive, and for Mickie, her own student, Lori doesn't know what to do, but Lori still decided to interrupt the matter between the two.
Mickey's eyes widened and she asked incredulously, "Mentor, is it really a magic spell of the Fireball Technique?"
There are many kinds of magic spells, just like fireballs, there is a full version, that is, the spells are the same, but according to the different magic, they are divided into small fireballs, fireballs, big fireballs, fireballs, bursting fireballs, beaded fireballs and other magic, and there is also a kind of fireball spell that cuts some of the fireball spells to form small fireballs, fireballs, big fireballs and other spells, the advantage of this is to make money, a spell can earn ten parts of the money, and it can also suppress the strength of others, and like Lori uses the full version of the fireball spell。
"Of course, you're my Lori's student, how can you learn those deleted magic spells, but this full version is much more complicated than the cut version, and it involves some characters from other races, so I want you to master it as much as possible. Lori said with an eyebrow, and at the same time carefully instructed.
"Thank you, Mentor!" Mickie said excitedly twice in a row.
"Go ahead, it's better to be proficient in copying, because it's a matter of making your own zuò scrolls in the future. Lori looked at Mickey's appearance, very happy, and then said again.
Mickey bowed deeply, then said, "Then Mentor, rest!" and turned around and trotted away.
"Alas!" Lori watched as Mickey left and closed the door, and Lori stared at the door for a while before sighing, and then began to calm down and meditate.
"Alas!" At the same time, Merif and Alice, who were not far from the next door, were lying on the bed, and Alice also showed her smooth shoulders and snuggled in Merlive's arms, what happened outside just now was nothing to hide under the strong spiritual power of the two, Alice is the Great Magister, and her powerful spiritual power can lock almost any object within hundreds of meters at any time, of course, the things between Cook and Mickey and Lori are clear, and the two looked at each other, sighed at the same time, and also saw the helplessness of the two at the same time.
It was Merif who came to his senses, put his arm around Alice's shoulders and said, "Young people's affairs are handled by young people themselves, let's be busy with our own affairs." After saying that, Merif kissed Alice on the lips, and then pressed her whole body up again, and Alice glared at Merif angrily, and then put her hands tightly around Merlive's neck.
When Merif and his party were resting in the town, the war of the Muni Principality, which was fought by millions of people, was finally coming to an end, because of the disappearance of the supreme commander of the Roland Empire, Merif led the army of the Roland Empire to take action, and it was this meal that allowed the retreating army of the Ceylon Empire to drill into the mountains adjacent to the Roland Empire and the Ceylon Empire, and also made the 600,000 imperial guards of the Ceylon Empire organize a thick defense line, no matter how many troops you have, don't think about the meaning of the past.
Therefore, the Roland Empire had to suspend its troops, and the Roland Empire's truce was mainly because the large and small nobles had made enough money, you must know that the Roland Empire had captured a total of more than 700,000 prisoners, and these farmers who had seen blood were no longer farmers, but soldiers, so the price was as high as thirty gold coins, that is, more than 20 million gold coins.
Yes, the Mammoth Knights lost three hundred people, and the Muni Principality was robbed, in fact, in addition to food, most of them were robbed by those soldiers of the Roland Empire, but from the army of the Ceylon Empire, this is the spoils of war, and the booty alone is as high as tens of millions of gold coins, although it is said that the three hundred people lost by the Mammoth Knights are all noble children, but these noble children cannot be concubines, then they are concubines, and in front of the huge gold coins, a qiē can be put down.
And the Roland Empire also felt great pressure, logistical pressure, there were nearly two million troops to eat and drink, and hundreds of thousands of prisoners, and the Duchy of Muni did not have the slightest supply capacity, and even if there were, it was a trophy, so the empire had to sit at the negotiating table with the Ceylon Empire.
However, when the two sides were secretly in contact, Merif and Alice disappeared and were attacked, and now all the nobles and nobles did not dare to come forward, you must know that although the Merif family is not very good, but Alice's Clary family has a very strong voice in the empire.
When the emperor of the Roland Empire had to consult the Mage Tower under strong logistical pressure, the negotiations were finally pushed out of the water, although there were still many hot-blooded young people screaming for revenge, but without the support of the nobles, everything was empty talk.
"Mentor! Alice and Merif haven't heard from them yet, so let them talk like this?" Roddy said to Monchi Clary, who had just returned from the Magic City, with some concern.
"Hehe, it's okay, the prophecy master of the magic city has predicted that they will be in danger this time, and they will come back at the harvest festival. Monchi Clary said, waving his hand.
Luo Di asked with some disbelief, "Mentor, is this prophecy really that accurate?"
"Hehe, you haven't touched the rules yet, the sun rises every day, from east to west, the stars are constantly changing every year, this is the power of the law, forget it, don't say it, you can vaguely sense the power of the law when you reach my level." Meng Qi said with a smile, but then found that Roddy was still confused, so he waved his hand and said.
"But the Ceylon Empire has gone too far this time. When Roddy heard Monchi say this, he wisely avoided mentioning these things, and turned to the war.
"Alas, Roddy, why don't you see it, this war can be said to be a happy scene for all. Monchi was a little speechless, and his tone was a little heavier.
"Ask the instructor to guide the students. Luo Di was stunned and quickly bowed and said.
When Monchi heard Rody's words, he stood up and pointed: "For the Ceylon Empire, not only did it rob back a large amount of grain, but it also lost nearly two million young adults, which allowed the Ceylon Empire to successfully survive this crisis, do you think about it, if the Ceylon Empire does not start a war, then what will it look like?"
Hungry farmers. Roddy said with a deep groan.
"Yes, as long as one, can the army still be spared, you must know that most of the soldiers are actually born and civilians, then there are still some large and small forces that want to profit from it, the Ceylon Empire will inevitably have internal strife, which will not only cause great losses to the country, but also a powerful empire next to it, Ceylon XIII has clever means, and when it first appeared, he found such a big cake as the Muni Principality. Monchi was slightly disappointed when he heard Roddy say this, but he still pointed out.
Luo Di's sweat came out, obviously the political family's wrist made Luo Di feel cold, and then Meng Qi continued: "And our empire, although it lost three hundred mammoth knights, but how many benefits did the big and small nobles get, in addition to food, most of the Muni Principality has become the spoils of war for the big and small nobles and soldiers, and there are hundreds of thousands of slaves, and the booty and slave trade have to pay taxes, how much benefit can the emperor get from it, as for the mammoth knights, isn't there any?" As for the three hundred children of the nobility, in the face of huge interests, they are a fart, and there is another point, that is, the fertile land of the Muni Principality, this is the big head, Luo Di, I don't believe you look at it, the royal family of the Muni Principality is estimated to be dead, of course, this will be pushed down on the body of the Ceylonese. ”
"Mentor?" Rodi felt chills all over his body, because Rody knew that Mentor would not lie.
"Hehe, Roddy, you better study your magic, this thing is too dark, so dark that only you can't imagine it. Monchi looked at Roddy's appearance, patted Roddy on the shoulder, and said earnestly.
Sada is the name of the town where Cook lives, after a night of heavy rain, ushered in a sunny day, when a beam of sunlight naughtily shone on Cook's face, Cook finally woke up, Cook stretched, and then lay down for a while, and then reluctantly got up, the soft quilt nested after a month of adventure, it was so nostalgic.
"Huh!" When Cook pushed open the door, he found that Lori and the others were up, and two maids dressed as maids were busy, while the innkeeper was accompanied by a smiling face, apparently brought by the boss.
"Well, they'll be our Lily's handmaidens from now on. Merif looked at the two maids and asked for Alice's opinion, and Alice nodded slightly before Meriff spoke.
"Thank you, sir, for your kindness. "The innkeeper was excited, this is a magician, a magician, and a high-level magician.
"Well, this girl is your daughter?" said Merlive, pointing to one of the slightly chubby girls.
"Yes, sir!" said the innkeeper with a quick nod.
"Well, this is a contract, you will only need to inquire about this when you go to the imperial capital in the future, and you will know where our family is. Merif wrote down a deed and handed it to the innkeeper.
"Thank you, thank you, sir. The innkeeper looked at the beautiful words, and couldn't help but be excited, the innkeeper had already made up his mind, and he would go to the mayor to see if this person was very famous.
"And this one?" asked Merlive, gesturing to another emaciated girl.
"She is the daughter of a distant relative of mine, and their family is ...... this time. The innkeeper didn't say anything more than he said, but Del had chosen from among the slaves in the cellar behind.
"Well, I see!" said Merif waving his hand, thinking that it was left over from the war, after all, it was still the Duchy of Muni.
The innkeeper Del hurriedly retired, and finally bent down and said, "The kitchen is already ready, please wait a while, a few adults, breakfast will come soon." ”
"Father, I have a maid. It wasn't until Del went out that Lori said in a coquettish voice.
"You have, what about Mickey?" Alice nodded Lori's forehead, Lori's face was very cultured, she didn't interject when her parents were talking to people, and Lori didn't express her opinion until outsiders left.
"Alright then!" Lori reacted when she heard her mother say this.
"Actually, these girls from civilian families are very good, with innocent backgrounds, and they are the best candidates to be maids. Merif said with some deep meaning.
After Merrif finished speaking, he saw Cook, so he beckoned to Cook and said: "Cook, these are the two new maids, the fat one is Mary, and the thin one is Martha, this is their future name, Martha, Mary This is Cook, Miss Lori's guardian knight." ”
"Hello two!" said Cook, not knowing what to do, so he bent down.
"Cook, go get some clothes ready, it's time for us to change our clothes. Merif then ordered, apparently the group needed some new clothes.
Cook reluctantly walked out of the tavern, followed by Martha, because Martha knew the size of several women's clothes, Cook muttered as he walked: "What is this all about? Ask someone to buy clothes without giving money? Where is there such a master, if I continue like this, I will go bankrupt." ”
The town was not too big, only about two hundred meters, and there was a tailor's shop not far from the inn, and when Cook went in, he gave Martha the task of picking out clothes, but sat on a chair.
"Alright!" Martha said cautiously to Cook.
"Okay, boss, how much?" Cook looked at Martha, saw Martha holding a large bag of women's clothes, and some underwear in it, Cook picked out a few more for Merlif, Mike, and a set of linen samurai clothes for himself, and then asked the boss.
"Twenty-eight gold coins, all of which are made of fine furs and linen. "The boss is a couple of about thirty years old, and the big deal of more than 20 gold coins has not been touched for a few years.
"Take it, and give me a receipt for thirty gold coins. Cook counted twenty-eight gold coins to the boss and said.
"Okay, okay, right away, right away!" As soon as the boss heard this, he immediately put away the gold coins and opened a receipt quickly.
"Take it! Cook stuffed a gold coin into Martha's palm, and if Martha hadn't been Mickey's maid in the future, Cook wouldn't have given a gold coin, at most two silver coins.
"This ...... This...... Isn't it okay?" to Cook's surprise, Martha looked a little scared.
"What are you afraid of, take it, I told you that you can't do it without money, what will you do if you don't have money?" said Cook as he wrapped his clothes neatly.
"But, but. "Martha, two in a row.
"Oh, you said that you are a girl's family, you always have to buy some private items, and it is impossible to ask others when the time comes, take it, it is better to hide it in the socks, so that not only will it not make a noise, but it is also very hidden. Cook was a little speechless.
"Thank you!" Martha listened to Cook's words, and seemed to feel that it made sense, so she stuffed the gold coin into her sock, and whispered.
"Let's go, let's go to the grocery store again and see if there's anything good. Cook weighed it and found that there were more than fifty gold coins, which were given by Del, and by the sheriff, and by himself.
But just as Cook walked out of the tailor's shop, two black shadows fell from the sky, and when Cook reacted, he found that the little bad had been pulled on his right shoulder, and the big mouth was on the left, and what was even more annoying was that the little bad was actually covered with dirt, and the big mouth was cleaner.
"Money, my money, I want to buy something!" the little bad guy stretched out his little paw and said confidently.
"It's okay to ask for money, but look at you like this, it's dirty, and your clothes are dirty. Cook picked up the little bad guy and went to the big pool in front of the grocery store to clean the little bad, because the town is a wooden building, so every house, every shop has a big pool next to the door.
"Let go, let go, I'll wash it myself, don't change the topic, I'll tell you, brother is very smart. Little Bad said as he struggled.
"Okay, how many gold coins do you have?" asked Cook letting go of the little bad.
"That's all. The little bad opened his mouth and rolled out a few small seeds from it, and the little bad pointed to the seeds floating on the water.
"Eleven, it can't be!" Cook asked, as he counted, incredulous.
"That's right, I went back with Big Mouth on purpose, and then I put a seed in my mouth where you promised, and we were busy all night last night. The little bad stood on the edge of the pool, shook his whole body, shook off the water on his body, and then tilted his head and said.
"Uh!" Cook's face turned green, no wonder he hadn't seen them last night, it turned out that he had used this most primitive method to determine the amount of gold for himself, and Cook himself couldn't remember how much he had promised.
"I want more. Big Mouth shouted from the side.
"Well, eleven of the little bad, sixteen of the big mouths. Cook had no choice but to say helplessly.
"But are you sure you're going to do it now? to know how much eleven gold coins weigh, and what are these people going to do to you?" asked Cook, with an imperceptible smile on his lips.
"Hmph, we're going to buy something. The little bad jumped on Cook's shoulder again and said.
Cook spread his hands and said, "Let's go, I'm about to buy it." ”
There was everything in the grocery store, dried fruits, seeds, and farm tools, Big Mouth and Little Bad each bought a large bag of dried fruits, as well as honey, and let Cook fry dried fruits, which cost less than ten silver coins in total, of which honey accounted for the vast majority, of course, Cook also bought a large bag of dried fruits, all kinds, chestnuts, walnuts, acorns, etc., honey, cream, are indispensable, and Cook also carefully prepared some grain seeds, because Cook is a wood magician who can give birth to plant seeds, so Cook decided to be prepared.
Martha hugged the clothes and watched Cook's strange behavior, her eyes were full of doubts, but Martha didn't ask, and Cook didn't say, so the two went back to the hotel, and Cook went into the kitchen, and Martha carried the clothes upstairs.
"Coming, coming! Creamy, honey, osmanthus, and plain. It didn't take long for Cook to come up with a large tray of all sorts of dried fruit.
"Yay, Cook is the best. Lori took the lead in picking up a chestnut and tasted it carefully, Lori is a fire magician, so there is no problem with this temperature.
"Come on, taste them all, Mike, pay attention to your image. Cook saw that Mike not only ate a lot of food, but also kept filling it in his pocket, and as for what agreement was reached between Mike and Merryl, Cook didn't care.
"Boss....... Being teased by Cook, Mike was speechless, especially when several ladies had come over.
"Not bad!" Alice tasted two, and said admiringly, in fact, in terms of the speed of eating, the little bad and the big mouth should be the first, and second, Martha and Mary are very strange, ordinary pets can't do this, just like their own dogs can't be on the table, but Merrif didn't say, and being a maid was also very wise not to ask.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" At that moment, there was a sudden rush of chickens and dogs jumping in the town, followed by loud shouts, the sound of clashing weapons, and the muffled sound of horns.
"Boom, boom!" was followed by the sound of tables and chairs toppling, and the screams of women, and the shouts of men.
"My lord, I've finally found you. "It was a mighty general who came in, and the haggard look on his face could not hide the excitement in the slightest, and as soon as he rushed to the door, he saw Merrif on one knee at once.
"Hehe, you're pretty fast, get up. Merif said with a smile when he saw the soldier.
"My lord, my subordinates should be damned. The general did not get up, but lowered his head and said.
"Get up!" said Alice, in fact, Merif and Alice felt that the two of them had not suffered a loss from this incident, and that they had gained far more than they had lost.
"Yes, ma'am!" the general immediately stood up, and stood beside him so cautiously.
"Sedons, how did you know the news?" asked Alice with a smile.
"The mayor sent someone to inform us, where is the signature of the adult. Seydons replied quickly.
"Okay, since you're here, let's go, let's go back now to catch the harvest festival." Alice was silent when she heard this, and then commanded.
"Yes, ma'am. When Seydons heard this, he immediately went out, and then came in again, and the army outside began to move.
"Tell Cook something, Cook, this is Saidens, the deputy head of the Knights of the Moon. Saidas, this is Cook. When Alice saw Seydons come in, she commanded, because Seydens smelled of sweat, and there were so many ladies here, it was a little inconvenient.
"Captain Saidon!" Cook made a gesture of please.
"You first!" said Saidens bent down and made a gesture of please, and took the initiative to lean behind Cook.
Cook carefully looked at Seydens as he walked, the tall bridge of the nose, the golden hair, the blue eyes, and the wheat-colored skin, the tall and strong figure, all exuded the charm of a man, Cook was even more careful to check it with the magic eye, and found that it was actually a gold fighting spirit, Saidens held the helmet in his arms, a bright chain mail, and some complicated lines on it, as well as a silver-white crescent moon badge on his left chest, behind him was a scarlet cape, and riding boots made a rhythmic sound on the wooden floor。
Just when Cook was looking at Saidas, Saidens was also looking at Cook, at first glance, Saidens found that Cook was just an ordinary-looking teenager, and from the way he walked, he was not from a big family, and what made Saidens even more strange was that Cook did not have a fighting spirit, you must know that Saidens was a silver swordsman, that is, a level 7 swordsman, but Saidens then denied his idea, because Alice had already said that this was Lori's guardian knight, and ordinary people could play such a role, you must know that there were a lot of noble children in the imperial capital, and they all wanted to get the title of Miss Lori's guardian knight, but none of them were blown away by Alice, then Alice can say this to herself, this kid must have extraordinary talent.
"Saidens Raku, Lady Alice's distant cousin. "Saidens had an idea and reached out.
"Cook, Miss Lori's Guardian Knight. Cook was surprised, but then realized that a big family is a big family, and who doesn't have a few relatives.
"Cook, why haven't I seen you before?" said Saidens with a smile after shaking hands with Cook.
"Hehe, I only became Miss Lori's magic attendant a month ago, but this time Miss Lori got lost in the forest, and I have a little trick to survive in the wild, because my father is a fisherman. Cook said, spreading his hands.
"Magic squire, are you a magician, or a ......?" said Saidens, who had just said something, but he felt a little abrupt.
"Hunter!" said Cook.
"Hunter?" Saidens almost didn't believe his ears, does a mage need a hunter squire, no, hunter is a leather armor profession, and defense is not good, and a mage needs a meat shield warrior, not a leather armor profession.
"Yes! Cook pushed the door open and went in without looking back.
"Captain Saidens, this is a salute for the adults, I hope you can find someone to carry these things down, remember, don't ask too much. Cook sensed that Saida's tone was a little contemptuous, so he said coldly.
"Okay!" Saidens didn't pay so much attention to hearing that Cook was a hunter or a fisherman's son, and then heard the faint coldness in Cook's words, and his heart became angry, because his identity was there, not only the silver swordsman, but also the deputy head of the Xuanyue Knights, but Saidens did not turn his face, but replied and left.
Cook looked at Seydens's back, shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and then picked up the largest leather bag, put the dragon egg in the leather bag, stuffed some clothes or something, and held a few branches of the tree of life in his hand.
There were already several carriages downstairs in the hotel, Merif and Alice got into the first car, Lori and Mickey, Conkny the third, Martha and Mary in the fourth, Mike and Cook in the fifth, and the fifth was also a salute carriage.
Del waved excitedly at Mary and shouted, "Mary, be obedient, my father will come to see you in a few days." "Del was promoted to assistant by the mayor because of his merits, and of course it was because Mary became a lady-in-waiting of the Merif Hessek family.
The team set off quickly, because Mrs. Alice wanted to spend the harvest festival in the imperial capital, so the itinerary was more urgent, because the harvest festival was only three days, and it generally took five days to get to the imperial capital here, so Seddons had to hurry as much as possible, and as time went by, more and more people joined the team, and finally even the magician army also joined in, with the help of the magician army, although the restoration technique of the water system is not as good as the wood system, but it can't stand the high level of people。
And the carriage was also changed in the middle, of course, it was the two carriages of the Merif couple and Lori, the horses pulling the carriage had been replaced by Warcraft, and the speed in front was faster, but Cook and Mike were unlucky, because their carriage had not been changed at all.
"Damn it!" Cook cursed loudly as he was jolted so hard that he almost broke his head.
"Boss, it's useless for you to scold, no one knows what is in our carriage, and they all think it's a salute. Mike sat on the other side of Cook, letting the carriage sway.
"Alas!" Cook didn't know that it was safest to transport dragon eggs like this, if Merrif had been holding a leather bag all day, he was afraid that he would have exposed his target a long time ago, and human curiosity could kill the cat.
"Boss, it's better for us to have two horses, if we go on like this, we will probably faint when we reach the imperial capital. Mike encouraged.
"Yes, but what kind of horses do you want, look, it's not ready-made. Cook pointed to the large ash not far ahead.
"But you're carrying such a leather bag?" Mike asked, looking hesitantly.
"So you're left to figure it out on your own. Cook smiled slightly, opened the door of the carriage, stopped the coachman, and rushed towards the big ash with the big leather bag on his back.
"Boss, you ....... By the time Mike woke up, Cook was already riding triumphantly on Big Ash, and Mike roared.
After three days of non-stop travel, he finally returned to the imperial capital the day before the harvest festival, but it was already evening when he arrived at the imperial capital, because there was a magician legion, as well as the guards of the Xuanyue Knights, nothing happened, seeing the gate of the imperial capital, Merif and Alice finally breathed a sigh of relief, you must know that the two of them are always paying attention to the dragon eggs and the branches of the tree of life, and they dare not pay attention to it with mental power, you must know that there are many magicians here, and Cook is not a safe master who runs east and west on the big gray gray, which is very worrying, but now it seems that no one has paid attention to Cook。
"Saidens, let people lead the way, and send Lily and them to his grandfather first, he has been worried for a long time. Merif beckoned, then commanded.
"Yes!" Saidens heard this, and looked down on Cook even more, you must know that His Majesty the Emperor was at the gate of the city to greet him, if it was really Cook's talent, Merrif would definitely not miss the opportunity to let Cook integrate into the upper class, but now let Cook go, then it proves that Cook has no place in Meriff's heart at all, Saidens turned these thoughts in his heart, and went to carry out the order.
Cook and his party were taken away by a squad of the Xuanyue Knights and entered the city through the side gate, while the rest of the magician legions, as well as the Xuanyue Knights, had to wait for the reception of the Emperor Xià, of course, the reward was inevitable, everyone didn't care about Cook and his party, only a few young officers watched Lori's carriage, but with the arrival of the Emperor Xià, these officers also withdrew their attention.
