MTL - The Dragon Princess Who Traveled Through Another World-Chapter 9 Abandoned castle and barren territory
Chapter 9 Abandoned Castle and Barren Territory
Bela Coast, the territory of the newly-baked Earl Charlie, the most remote territory of the Holy Platinum Empire, the barren coastal border.
Under the night, the humidity of the sea dispelled some of the muggy heat of midsummer.
Slightly salty sea water, and the sound of waves hitting the beach after high tide, all indicate that they left the first floor of the hotel in the small town and arrived at a strange coast in the blink of an eye.
Everyone in the mercenary team looked a little dull, including the magician Karna among them.
She showed a sluggish appearance of being hit hard, obviously she was severely hit by the means randomly displayed by the Arcanist she was hostile to.
The magicians are all very old-fashioned. They pay too much attention to inheritance, which actually limits their progress under the tide of the times.
Compared to the shock of the mercenaries, what Charlie showed was the complete opposite.
Her eyes were shining brightly, looking around and looking at the two arcanists, her gaze became more intense.
The white-robed arcanist who took out the red phoenix arcane props enjoyed the gaze of the new disciple very much, and boasted: "Hey! This is the last arcane exchange meeting in the city of learning. I got it from an apprentice sorcerer, hey~"
Red-robed Arcanist Mylamy knew that his old friend had a lot of money, but he had no intention of tearing things down at this time, and just rolled his eyes indecently.
"Stop bragging, Capa, how long do you want me to stand here and smell the smell of the sea? Little Charlie, this is your fief, oh! Why is this place full of sea water? The emperor here granted you a piece of land. Is the sea a territory?"
The hot-tempered old man in red robe habitually speaks with hatred.
Charlie was so embarrassed that he didn't know how to answer.
The white-robed Arcanist passed the steps very understandingly, "It's too late, we should go to the residence in your territory first."
"It's my first time here too, so I don't know where it should be?" Charlie said without confidence.
"Oh hehehe, this kind of thing depends on the arcane arts of the prophecy department, Charlie, my student! You can't expect an evocation department arcanist who can only 'boom boom' like a moving fort at a time like this .”
After finishing speaking, an Ion Stone flying above Kapa's head in the white robe became bright, and then he raised one foot from the ground, bent slightly, and took off the shoe on that foot.
Ditching the mage's booties under Charlie's slightly wide-eyed gaze...
Booties land with the toe pointing in one direction.
Kappa in the white robe raised his hand with a smile, and got back the thrown boots and put them on again.
He pointed to the direction where the toe of the shoe was pointing before and said, "It's over there, let's go."
It looked very 'metaphysical', and Charlie and the mercenary team followed the two confident arcanists in that direction dubiously.
It was heading north along the seashore, and for about five minutes under the night, everyone could vaguely see an isolated castle standing on a coastal reef.
A layer of outer city wall was built around the reef according to the situation.
Under the night, it couldn't be seen clearly, but Charlie felt that the outer city wall looked 'bumpy' and seemed to be broken.
The castle in the hazy night is isolated on the rocky cliff, and its outline is faintly visible in the silver-white moonlight like a layer of tulle.
"If it's good, it should be somewhere. The residences of the nobles are always the most luxurious in the local area." The white-robed mage said lightly, there was no irony in his words, but just a comment on a reality.
They walked for another 30 minutes before slowly climbing up the gentle **** on the east side of the castle.
When he reached the gate of the castle, Charlie was already out of breath.
She is probably the weakest of all.
Seeing that the two silver-haired old arcanists were blushing and out of breath all the way, Charlie secretly made up his mind to put exercise on his daily schedule.
Her maid stepped forward and knocked on the door. It stands to reason that no matter whether there are people in this territory, the property of the nobles will be guarded again.
There are also corresponding officials in the local area to manage the local population.
This castle is in disrepair for a long time, and the thick wooden gates have been decayed due to the seaside climate.
The maid didn't even dare to slap the thick wooden door vigorously, for fear that it would fall off the door frame.
The two arcanists obviously don't have much patience for things other than arcane magic and knowledge. Oh, now there is one more 'thing' that makes them very patient, Charlie.
The red-robed arcanist Myramie pulled out her spell-casting staff, and impatiently said to the maid: "Get out of the way!"
Then he said to his new disciple in a timely manner: "Look! This is the way our evocation department arcanists behave!"
After finishing speaking, he whispered: "Magic Missile!"
I saw that as he exhaled the name of the arcane, the front part of the wooden staff he held in his wrinkled hands gathered energy rapidly.
Energy gathered from all directions and turned into a pink-purple light ball the size of a basketball, and then the light ball flew out and hit the wooden door directly.
There was a muffled 'boom'.
The thick wooden door that had begun to decay was blown to pieces, the wooden wedges flew, and the man with the scar took a step across to block Charlie.
The maid who was too late to escape was quickly rescued by the sensitive Searle.
Apparently, these two "difficult brothers and sisters" who were seriously injured by the shadow assassin and received Charlie's "suture" treatment, cultivated a deep "friendship" after lying together on a flatbed truck and being used as a "corpse" '.
After the gate is opened, the fly ash pavement in the old castle ushers in.
It can be seen that this place has been abandoned for a long time.
Probably the most embarrassing person present was Charlie.
After all, after careful calculation, it was only half an hour before she patted her chest and tricked the red-robed Arcanist into bragging that she had money and a house.
'Ahem, I'm not cheating, I have a house, but the house is a bit old, but it still looks like an old castle anyway, I have money, but the money pocket is a little deflated, only a hundred gold coins and four One hundred and forty-nine silver coins. '
In short, the mercenaries held their noses and entered the castle first for inspection.
They knew that this was a down-and-out nobleman when they received the mission and saw the location of the fief.
Now they are not surprised to see the castle.
Charlie peeked at the two arcanists with some guilt, only to find that the two arcanists were also looking at her. There was no disgust or care about the little "lie" in their eyes, but "the more you look, the more satisfied you are" in their eyes the meaning of.
"Ah, it's too dirty here, my lord. If you don't clean it up, you won't be able to live here. The damp and rotten smell in the room, even if you open all the windows of the castle, it won't be able to get rid of it within a few days." The maid also went in and looked at it. Look.
When I came out, I reported to the earl in distress.
Charlie just wanted to say that he would stay at a nearby resident’s house, but he heard the voice of Mylamy, who had violently knocked down the door just now:
"Oh! My student, if you want to have a long journey in the arcane arts, you must integrate every bit of your life into the arcane arts, just like those big figures who live in the floating city, ah...their lives, bit by bit, Even drinking water comes from a great arcane!"
"Get to the point, my old friend." The white robe Capa interrupted the old man's topic that was about to go far.
"Hey, what I mean is, ordinary people can't handle this kind of trivial matter, but it doesn't mean that we arcanists can't handle it. Take care!"
Charlie, who had witnessed the wooden door turning into a 'hidden weapon' splashing around, shivered, and hid directly behind the white-robed Capa, and then showed a small head to watch.
The arcanist in the red robe waved his staff again, and the three wonderful elements of the breeze, the foam and the clear water converged into a kind of cleansing arcane, centered on the place where Charlie and the others were, like a violent tornado, instantly Swept across the entire castle, giving it a new look.
The only problem is that the mercenaries who went upstairs to investigate didn't notice for a while, and they were recruited collectively...
It wasn't any powerful harmful spells at all, they were just washed clean from the inside out.
Looking at the brand-new castle, Charlie's eyes 'bling', 'bling' staring out.
The look at Instructor Melami was stronger than the one that looked at Instructor Kapa before.
This look probably turned cold after she saw the members of the mercenary team hiccupping, spitting out soap bubbles one by one, all walking down from the second floor of the castle with numb faces.
