Chapter 131 The Royal Capital [Also Update 13/14]
Auston's appearance almost scared Emmons to death.
He was discussing with the Secretary of Finance how to undermine Auston's power. He never expected that Auston was in the room!
When did he come in?
Emmons himself is also a high-level magician. How keen is his mental power? He was lurking by a magician of the same level. What a terrible thing?
"What's wrong?" Auston sat in a chair, poured himself a glass of water, and said, "The sheriff and the finance minister discussed something important, so why didn't he call me?"
The Secretary of Finance looked at Auston and felt a little puzzled for a moment. He glanced at Emmons. After the two looked at each other, they made magic gestures almost at the same time.
Both of them are high-level magicians, and the two high-level magicians are more than enough to deal with Auston, who is only high-level magicians.
The two of them can not only join forces secretly to seize Auston's power, but also keep him forever tonight.
However, things did not go in the direction they expected.
Emmons is a water magician. He was about to communicate that the water element condensed into an ice cone to attack Auston, but found that he could not communicate with the water element.
The Secretary of Finance is a senior earth magician. His advantage is not attack. The first one he released was earth wall technique, which allowed him and Emmons to defend Auston's fire magic attack.
However, his spells and gestures had been over for a long time, and there was not even a shadow of the earth wall around him, because he had no communication with the earth element at all.
This kind of thing is very common among magicians. In front of them, no one can release even a magician.
This is a level crush, at least two large levels of crush.
The ability to prevent the advanced magician from communicating with magic elements means that he is at least...
Emmons' legs became weak, and he fell to the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "Devil, Magician..."
...
The new finance minister and the sheriff are very close. Judging from the close contact between the two, the finance minister and the sheriff are obviously going to unite to undermine the city lord Auston.
However, the development of things later was much beyond everyone's expectations.
First, the city lord revised several tax orders and the Finance Minister actively implemented them. Later, when the city lord ordered the sheriff to strengthen the daily inspections in the city, the sheriff also honestly followed without any shirk.
It seemed that overnight, the Finance Minister and the Sheriff became the right-hand man of the City Lord, and they were united tightly under the City Lord - and before that, they never paid attention to the City Lord's orders.
Chen Luo was not sure about the changes that took place in Yabo City after they left.
He was staring at Isabella in a daze.
Of course, this is not because he is immersed in Isabella's beauty in the past, but Isabella, who used to not know double-type magic, can now release a boiling water ball with one hand and a water ball with the other...
This sounds surprising, but it is not that surprising.
Because along the way, Chen Luo mastered this skill bit by bit after watching Isabella fail countless times.
Once Isabella becomes stubborn, Chen Luo admires her hard work.
Along the way, Chen Luo also unexpectedly discovered that Isabella had already mastered three primary fire magics, which was inconsistent with her talent shown in the past.
You know, it has only been half a year since she became a junior magician. In half a year, being able to practice basic magic skillfully is already considered to be a talent that is different from ordinary people, and can be regarded as a genius in the general sense.
In Chen Luo's eyes, Isabella used to be an ordinary genius, but the facts told him that he had far underestimated Isabella.
In the past, her magical strength was not fast enough, not because she was not talented enough, but because she was lazy.
Since being stimulated by Byld, Isabella's efforts in magic have been several times as hard as before. Many times, she is still in Chen Luo's bed at midnight.
meditation.
Auston was almost forty years old and had only become a high-level magician. Now it seems that Isabella is much better than him. With her talent, she can maintain this kind of effort. Twenty years later, at least she will be a great magician or even a magician.
Isabella dissipated her magic, and while Chen Luo was not paying attention, she secretly rubbed her butt and asked Britney: "Teacher Britney, when will she arrive in the capital?"
After sitting in the carriage for a long time, Chen Luo's butt also hurts. Teacher Britney can fly, and he and Isabella can only sit in the carriage honestly. After so many days, their butts have suffered a lot...
Britney pointed to a black line in front of her and said, "That's it."
From a distance, it seemed like a long black line. When I walked in, I realized that it was a city.
The capital of the Kingdom of Lorraine is located on a wide plain, with a raised high ground in the center of the plain, which is the acropolis of the capital and the palace.
The rest of the buildings in the city are built around the acropolis in a circular shape, surrounding the acropolis in circles, and there are also crisscrossing streets connecting squares, theaters, administrative offices, temples and other places.
Looking from the front of the capital, the winding steps lead straight to the top of the highland where the Acropolis is located.
Whether it is the periphery of the royal capital or the outer acropolis of the royal family, there are towering and strong city walls.
However, for high-level magicians, no matter how high the city wall is, it will have no effect. Once a magic war breaks out, these things will be useless.
Compared with Yabo City, the biggest impression that Wang Du gave Chen Luo was that he was big.
A royal capital covers an area of more than ten times that of Yabo City. There are crowds of people on the streets, and various towering buildings can be seen everywhere. There are also ordinary buildings in Yabo City, but there are countless stone pillars and the magnificent temple. It is a scenery that only the royal capital has.
The Os Empire believed in earth elements. Loran belonged to the Os Empire. The earth-like temple was also built in the royal capital. When Chen Luo and the other two passed by, they saw many people visiting.
Teacher Britney is a teacher hired by Wangdu Magic Academy. Originally, Chen Luo and the others should go directly to the Magic Academy. Wangdu Magic Academy would arrange accommodation for them, but Teacher Britney was not willing to live in the school. For this reason, Chen Luo rented a house in the city through an agency.
Although there were only three people living there and Chen Luo did not intend to hire a housekeeper or servant, he still rented a large area. The house is far away from the downtown area and is located in a quiet neighborhood, with a front yard and a back yard, a kitchen, a wine cellar, etc.
In addition to these, there is actually a magic practice room made of stones.
The rent for the house is twenty gold coins per month, which is not low and most people cannot afford to rent. But for Chen Luo now, this is the money he sold two books, so he rented it for one year at a time.
For a long time, this place will be a small home for the three of them. Chen Luo has discussed with Isabella and opened two small gardens on both sides of the stone road in the front yard to plant some flowers and plants. As for the larger backyard, after renovation, it can be used as a place for fighting training.
As for magic practice, Chen Luo and Isabella can no longer release magic at will. Fortunately, there is also a magic practice room here, and the stone walls should be able to withstand all attacks under advanced magic.
He cleaned the yard, tidyed the room, and prepared some furniture and kitchen utensils for the new home. Chen Luo was busy with these things for two days.
He planted the seeds of jasmine flowers in the newly opened small garden, and a knock suddenly sounded outside the door.
He thought it was Isabella and Teacher Britney who came back from buying groceries. When he opened the door, he found a young woman standing outside.
She is about the same age as Mr. Britney, she is very slim, with dark brown hair, and blue eyes like Isabella.
She looked at Chen Luo and said, "I'll look for Britney Stern."
