Advent of the Archmage Chapter 269: Unfortunately you are not a high elf (4/4)
Field wilderness.
In the past few days, the hottest news in the wilderness was not the sneak attack on Jiaotu Ridge, but the sneak attack. After that, the magic wizard lord in the wilderness announced a pricey reward!
Wanting an assassin with a head worth 10,000 gold coins and a weapon of 20,000 gold coins, the news is like throwing a red iron ball into cold water, and it exploded. Began to spread in all directions at a crazy speed.
On the bulletin board outside Jiaotu Ridge, a large group of people have been around all day, commenting on this reward.
"It's no wonder that the assassin doesn't die when the lord takes such a shot. I'm relieved to stay in such a place."
"I bet someone will send him over in less than a month."
"One month is too long, half a month is enough!"
"If I can martial arts, I'll go find someone."
These discussions happen all the time, as long as people who come to the territory will be attracted by this reward announcement for the first time, and the people in the territory are very proud of it.
This drastically dilutes the negative effects of a sneak attack on the territory.
Of course, it ’s a fact that the territory is still being attacked. This is a fact, and such a thing must not happen a second time.
The day after the sneak attack, Glidan searched for syndicates more severely, and the magician doubled the speed of building the magic tower, and the high elven Romson joined it.
Correspondingly, Link also greatly increased the remuneration of magicians.
Under the efforts of these magicians, the magic tower has changed almost half a day. At this speed, it is estimated that the magic tower will be completed in half a month.
As for Link, he arranges for himself two hours a day to deal with territorial affairs. At other times, he is studying magic. The focus is on the magic theory of making puppets.
On the third day of the surprise attack, Link studied the theory of the puppet on the top floor of the government affairs wooden building as usual.
In the past few days, he has delved into "The Heart of the Doll" and Waynes ’s theory of the Doll. Slowly forming.
But there are still shortcomings.
"Unfortunately, there are too few related magic books that I have read. It would be better if I could see some of the master's theory of magic puppets and extract the essence for me."
The wisdom of the predecessors is the ladder to advance to a higher level. Link is now very eager to get these things. Unfortunately, the magical heritage of the human race is too shallow. He is now stepping on the highest shoulder. .
‘Tuk Tuk ~’ suddenly there was a knock on the door.
Linke's brows frowned slightly. It was two o'clock in the afternoon. He ordered that people should not be disturbed. What is going on today?
"What's up?"
"Master Lord, Your Highness Mirda is awake and wants to see you." A young woman voice came from outside the door. Link heard this voice, and he remembered that this woman was his maid to Mirda.
Milda is awake, this is indeed the time to see the previous one. Link responded, closed the magic book, opened the door, and said to the maid, "Let's go."
The treatment of the princess is always special. Mirda ’s residence is the only stone-built house in the territory. This was temporarily built by the magicians of Linkto using the transformation magic. It is a two-story building with a large balcony and Cottage with small garden.
Led by the maid, Link walked through the humble small garden, entered the villa, and finally reached the bedroom on the second floor.
In the bedroom, Mirda leaned on the back of the bed, and a maid was carefully feeding her with broth.
When seeing Link coming in, Mirda smiled slightly, pointed to the chair near the bed, and said softly, "Sit."
Linke sat down and observed Mirda's complexion. Compared with the appearance of seeing her on the first day, her face was still pale and her eyes were much darker. At this time, she was wearing ordinary white pajamas, and her light blond hair was loose. Now, the princess of the high-elven princess is not like a girl who lives thousands of miles away, more like a girl next door, of course, this girl next door has a high value.
"Let's go out, I have something to talk to Mr. Link alone." Mirda waved to the two maids. The two maids bowed slightly, saluted, and closed the door by the way.
The room was quiet for a few seconds, and then Link broke the silence. He said politely, "I'm glad to see His Highness recovering."
Unexpectedly, as soon as this remark came out, Mirda laughed at herself: "Are you happy? Mr. Link, in fact, I woke up this morning, and Romsen told me the whole story. I'm afraid in your mind, I Just an alien princess who can give up at any time. "
Lin Ke froze slightly, looking up at Mirda, but saw that she was also looking at him, and those lilac crystal eyes were filled with a touch of irony.
Well, Link's decision at the time was really hurtful. As the object of being abandoned, it was normal to be unhappy, and Link could understand.
Linke wasn't surprised by the other's reaction either, when he made those choices, he had already expected the situation now.
He didn't justify himself, but just shifted the topic: "Your Highness, did you call me?"
Seeing him like this, Princess Mirda sighed softly.
She feels very complicated to this magician. She admires his magical talents and appreciates his life-saving grace, but feels chill over his previous choices, but as a royal princess, she received political education from an early age. He also knew that there were no mistakes in Link's choice at that time. She would do the same for her, and she would never be so perfect.
"I apologize to you. That night, I shouldn't doubt you." In the end, Mirda said this.
Linke glanced at Mirda with a little surprise. From the performance of that day, Mirda should be the same as Romson, but he was a fledgling young man. When her face was ironic just now, Link still had this idea, but Now she suddenly apologized, and this reversed Link's impression of her.
‘Well, it ’s a little bit more mature than Romussen ’s little boy. ’Link feels slightly better about Mirda.
"Don't apologize. If it were me and I suddenly encountered such a thing, I would also distrust strangers. This is normal."
"It is true, but you will never travel the same night as me." Milda's face was full of self-deprecation: "When you encounter the same thing, you will not only show any distrust, but also show Trust and support. If you do this, if it is a misunderstanding, the other party will be very grateful for your trust. Even if the other party is really infected with the black magic, your trust and support will still allow you to gain virtues, others see it , Will recognize your quality, right? "
Linke thought for a while and nodded finally.
If it was him, he would do exactly what Mirda said.
It seems silly to trust someone, but in fact, this is a very intelligent investment. As long as you have some self-protection strategies in this investment, you will be a winner anyway.
With this strategy, the more you move forward, the more loyal allies gather around you.
On the contrary, acting like Mirda seems to be savvy and protects herself, but if she continues to do so, her allies will become less and less, and in the end, she will stand alone.
The difference between the two choices is the size of the pattern in the chest.
With a long sigh, Mirda Qiao's face is full of loss: "Unlike me, I not only offended you, but also killed Alar, and I almost went to heaven myself. Now I think back, I feel very Shame. "
Why did Link pick it up?
After thinking for a while, he can only comfort: "Everyone can make mistakes, just change it."
Milda smiled again: "You see, you always make the most correct choice. When you first came in, I was angry at your original actions, and I couldn't help but taunt, even though I know so I ca n’t help but I ca n’t help it. But you did n’t. I questioned you at the beginning and you finally saved me. I just mocked you just now and you are still comforting me. I am curious. Is there no personal emotion in your heart? "
Linke frowned slightly. He didn't want to discuss these things with Mirda: "Your Highness, you are calling me, wouldn't you just say these ...?"
He almost said the word "nonsense".
Seeing him like this, Mirda's smile on his face thickened: "It seems you still have emotions, but you just disdain me and this little girl. Well, I won't talk nonsense anymore, so, I think you are a very reliable ally and deserve the support of my tribe.
Lin Ke frowned, but did not expect it to be the result.
"It's a surprise, isn't it?"
"It was unexpected." The little girl suddenly became so sensible, making people suspect that this was not true.
Milda whispered: "My mother and I have said that if our tribe wants to last, we must have a truly reliable ally. And truly reliable allies are not those who are dead to you because of this. People don't exist at all, and those who are truly reliable are those who can achieve mutual benefit in cooperation. Because only in this way, cooperation can last, and you are the kind of person. "
The cooperation between races has never been paid unilaterally.
Linke nodded and praised, "Your mother is very intelligent."
Speaking of her mother, Mirda also showed a little pride on her face. She continued: "You are a perfect magician. I heard people say that you spend most of your time studying magic. Right? "
"It does."
Milda laughed: "Let me be frank, the magic of the human race may have some characteristics, but in general, it is rough. You do n’t even have a complete Level 8 magic book. Here, even if you have the perfect Magic talent can only stop at level 7. "
Linke felt something, straightened and looked at Mirda seriously.
Milda also looked at him. She sat upright, her lips were slightly tilted, and smiled, "So, I invite you to Chenxi Island. There is a magic library on the island, which records my family for ten thousand years. The accumulated knowledge of magic. When you are free, you can stay there for three months. "
Linke's heart really moved this time. His eyes were wide and he stood up and saluted Mirda, "I'm very honored."
Milda came up with another magic book: "Freedom and Howl" is the work of Raphael, my legendary magician 1000 years ago. It is a masterpiece of the intelligence of the puppet. You may Need it. "
Linke was a joy, took a few glances at the magic book, only felt that the words were full of subtle sentences, and his heart was more happy, but he was a little puzzled: "Your Highness, how come you have so many magic books? "
Milda said with a smile: "Actually, I brought a small library full of magically copied books."
Lin Ke was envious. High Elf is indeed a magic race. Its magical knowledge is as deep as the sea, and the popularity of this magic book is probably far higher than human race.
Seeing him like this, Mirda covered her mouth and smiled: "Mr. Link, it's a pity that you are not a member of my clan, otherwise you will definitely become one of the greatest magicians in our history."
Linke just listens. Impossible, he never thinks about it. Now that he had obtained the magic book, he was already anxious to study it. With patience, he instructed Mirda to pay attention to his body, then he took the magic book and was ready to leave.
Milda saw him like this, and finally said, "I have about ten books about the puppet here. You can read it for me after reading it. For the dark artifact, I have let the tribe report to me on the morning dawn. Island, so during this time, I will be wounded here. "
This relationship is good, Link thanked again, and couldn't wait any longer, said goodbye, and turned away in a hurry.
Milda got down from the bed, walked to the balcony beside the bed, and watched Lin Ke go away.
She sighed again: "It's a pity, you're not a high elf." (To be continued.)
