Chapter 244 Extra Story: Biography of Mortals in the Middle Kingdom

Today is the first day of the graduation trip. As the first batch of graduates of Yuecheng New High School, Rock is only 17 years old, and his heart is full of pride. His Majesty the King gave a speech at the graduation ceremony full of emotion. Department of Civil Engineering, City University, directly signed a contract with Yuecheng Infrastructure after graduation, no need to worry about work.

My father sometimes said that when I was young, there was no toilet, no food, and nothing. Everyone lived outside like savages. Rock couldn't imagine how such a life would exist. He even went hunting in the wild with his classmates. There are many wild places Why do animals get hungry?They ran into a large herd of magic elk. These fawns were so cute and could talk. They ran with them for several days and even guided them to a lot of good places to hunt.

"I heard that people used to eat magic elk!" classmate Olivia whispered to Roque, "Deer hearts are the best!"

"What?" Rock's eyes widened, and he looked at the impassioned Karohe not far away, "The deer is so cute, why do you eat the deer!?"

Olivia laughed uproariously. I heard that this woman has Tuhai blood, but she really looks good...

Rock shook his head, shaking Olivia's beautiful eyes out of his mind, today is a big day for graduation trip, what do you think of that cruel woman?

"Rock, are you here too?!" Olivia's excited voice came.

... really beautiful!

Picking up the suitcase on the luggage trolley, Rock waved to his parents who were seeing him off, and walked into the platform comfortably. He heard that the "movable stairwell" would be renamed "elevator" in the future, and there was no need for a giant to shake it. Some looked sympathetically at the prairie giant who greeted the passengers warmly. However, there were other things that could not be done for this job. A giant with such strength would always find a job. The infrastructure of Moon City needed strong employees, and there were many prairie giants.

The train is painted a beautiful dark blue, which is as beautiful as the hair color of the Patronus. I don’t know why the God of Civilization is called the Patronus, but Rock thinks the name Patronus is better, and the Patronus is so handsome. , especially when smiling.

Rock moved his butt on the soft seat and approached the window carefully.

woo-

The siren sounded, and the teenagers in a car leaned out of the window excitedly, waving vigorously to their parents who were seeing them off outside the glass window upstairs.

The carriage shook slightly, and there was a rumbling sound. Rock and his classmates were exchanging snacks, discussing the newly published and evaluating the most popular dramas. Gradually, their topic turned to the west.

"I heard that mages are scary!" Although Olivia said so, her tone was nonchalant.

"What's so scary about industrial mages?" Rock retorted, "The magic they demonstrated during the lectures is amazing. Unfortunately, I was born in Moon City, and magic doesn't love me."

"Didn't you also take magic classes?" Olivia, who was born in the Southern Continent, asked.

"It's done, but so far I haven't used any magic." Rock sighed.

"I'll tell you a secret." Olivia suddenly lowered her voice, attracting several children in the same carriage to come over, she suddenly stretched out her index finger, a small flame was burning on her fingertip, "Look, I will magic!"

The graduate who was born in a few months of the city was stunned for a while, and at the same time made a sound of disdain and disdain. Olivia laughed loudly, obviously this was not the first time to show off.

"No kidding, I heard that the mages in the west are really scary!" Jiang Lu, with braids and cute freckles, said worriedly, "They will even eat the hearts of ordinary people!"

"Ah!" Even Olivia was taken aback, "How is it possible! Isn't this illegal?"

"The west is not the east." Rock took the opportunity to pretend to be inscrutable, "That is not the Middle Kingdom."

"Rock, you're pretending again, do you want to show off in front of Olivia?"

"I don't! I'm not! Don't talk nonsense!"

"Hee hee, I knew you liked me!"

"I do not have--"

The train is carrying the children laughing and running on the land, from Maibeigu, Ebo, Yuecheng, Tongcheng, Toto Port, Gaoting, these six cities are currently connected by a train line, completely changing these six cities People's way of life, it only takes five days from Maibeigu to Toto Port, which is an incredible speed, not to mention the unprecedented cargo capacity of the train, all of which do not require magic, except for some people protesting from time to time that the train runs smoothly. There will be a faint smell...

The teenagers arrived at Maibeigu late that night, and not long after leaving the train station, they saw several people dressed as mages walking out of the blue magic gate.

"The only free magic gate in the world!" Olivia sighed.

"Look, mage!" Jiang Lu tugged on the sleeves of her classmates, excitedly, "Mage from the west!"

"It's really different!" Rock couldn't help but said.

It was June, and a group of graduates were all wearing modern clothes. This concept was promoted by Cecil. Fitted tops and trousers. In cold seasons, you can add a cape or hooded cloak outside. Women can wear dresses. Wearing leather shoes, different high and low boots and designs, you can also wear high heels, although uncomfortable but very beautiful.

On the other hand, mages, both male and female, wear mage robes that reach the floor, and some even wear mage hats and carry staffs in their hands. After the changes of the times, there are no small staffs now, all of them are very long and big. Made in all sorts of easy-to-wield shapes—handy for fighting—and while there are some traditional mages who would like you to return the staves to their old, refined, slender, easy-to-carry shapes, taking them against industrial mages will never be easy. It is a disadvantage, so this proposal only exists on paper.

"Look, men wear skirts too!" Olivia couldn't help laughing.

"Really." Jiang Lu was rather shy, peeking at it from time to time, "What a long skirt."

"Could it be that the mages in the west are all gay?" Rock asked puzzled.

"Isn't it? I haven't heard of such a tradition." Another male student said doubtfully, "The Gay Knights don't wear such long skirts either!"

"You!" A mage suddenly shouted loudly, "What nonsense are you talking about!"

The children were taken aback, but Luo Keqiang said calmly: "I didn't say anything!"

The mages looked at them with stern eyes for a while, and a mage with long blond hair said impatiently, "Don't make trouble, these are people from the Middle Kingdom."

The slightly younger mage looked the children up and down for a moment, and muttered, "Why do women also wear pants?"

This sentence was caught by the children, and Olivia glared: "Why can't women wear pants! The name of the man is written on the pants?! Can you call the pants?"

The teenagers couldn't help laughing, a mage suddenly stepped forward, raised his staff, and a voice rang out: "Who is making noise here in the middle of the night?"

It's the North Valley Guard.

"It's nothing, we are the mage Crandall who transferred to Might and Magic." The blond mage gently tugged at his companions, and the mages turned and left one after another.

"What about you?" The guard raised the lantern to the children.

"Graduate from Yuecheng High School." Rock puffed out his chest.

"Oh, are you here for a graduation trip?" The guard's tone softened, "Come on into the valley."

The teenagers chirped behind the guard uncle, and Roque asked curiously, "Uncle, how could you light a fire in the city?"

"Who said it's outside the city?" The uncle laughed, "I can't see clearly at night, so you can see it tomorrow!"

"Isn't Crandall in a civil war?" Jiang Lu asked, "Why do mages come out?"

"It's because of the civil war that we went to Maibei Valley. After all, we are the only Might and Magic Gate here that doesn't charge money. If you want to go to the east, the cheapest and relatively fast route is to take the Maibei Valley Might and Magic Gate, and then take the train!" The uncle said disdainfully, "Those mages are all poor ghosts. If they can save a little bit, there is also a mage from the Holy Thunder who wants to go to the south. He has to turn a corner and transfer from us, just want to save some magic coins, heck!"

"That's not what I meant..." Jiang Lu became even more puzzled, "Isn't civil war an internal war? Does it mean that no one can come out? Civil war."

Both the child and the uncle laughed.

"Jiang Lu, how did you learn Chinese?"

"Don't take civil war literally!"

"Shut up all of you, Jiang Lu is an immigrant, and your parents didn't do much better when they first learned Chinese!" Olivia yelled while hugging Jiang Lu who was about to cry. When she spoke, no one dared to speak. .

The uncle glanced at Olivia and laughed dryly: "The little girl has such a loud voice, Tuhai people?"

In the dark, Olivia snorted, but did not answer.

Rock didn't sleep well all night. Maibeigu is indeed the transportation hub in the west, people come and go, and there are always noises on the street.

Rock's home is not in Yuecheng. Even the housing prices in the Fifth Ring Road are ridiculously high in Yuecheng. He lives in Ball City.I really don’t know what His Majesty Cecil thinks, one of the affiliated residential cities of Moon City is called Dungeon City, and the other is called Ball City. When the dungeon city was newly built, his parents hoped that the housing price of Moon City would drop, but in the end, not only did it not drop, but it also increased. When I went to buy in a hurry, the houses in the dungeon were sold out, so I had to wait for the ball city a year later.Now, it takes my father two hours to go to and from Yuecheng by carriage every day, and my mother scolds my father for not doing it earlier, but he slips away to live in the middle school to avoid the pain of nagging.

Rock opened the window and stretched himself. He was stunned when he saw something on the hillside——wow, it's so big!

Maibei Valley is backed by the Luofeng Mountain Range, so there was no need for a city wall, but after coming out of the Ebu Tunnel, a black city wall stands on an almost 45-degree hillside and extends to Maibei Valley, abruptly extending the definition of the country to the Luofeng Mountain Range .

Rock leaned out half of his body and looked towards the direction of the tunnel. The black city wall stretched to the distance like a miracle. This is the masterpiece of the patron saint Langdon!

No wonder the guard uncle was able to light lanterns outside the valley last night!

Rock's eyes were wide open, and he was fascinated unconsciously. Suddenly, he was slapped heavily on the back. He rushed forward and almost fell out of the window. Fortunately, someone grabbed him by the collar and dragged him back.

"O, Olivia! You... who pushed me?" Rock said in shock.

"No, I saw you almost fell when I came in!" Olivia blushed, "Why are you committing suicide so hard?"

"I didn't!" Rock yelled, "Someone shot me!"

"No, I didn't see anyone!" Olivia said firmly.

"Really?" Rock thought for a while, "It must be the mage! Yes, the mage from last night came to take revenge on us!"

Olivia opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but Roque had already run out and didn't come back until after breakfast, saying in frustration, "The security team doesn't believe my words."

Olivia grinned, bowed her head to eat and fell silent uncharacteristically.

All the graduates of Yuecheng High School will come to the west for their graduation trip. Maibeigu is the first stop. They don't know why. Today, the answer is solved.

A gay knight appeared in front of the students and said solemnly: "Your trip today is to visit the magic well."

The girls screamed, even Olivia's face was full of excitement, and the boys including Roque showed disdain. He was not convinced and envious at the same time.

The gay knight is so handsome and tall, can I be like this in the future?Rock followed the team while thinking wildly.

There are really many people in Maibei Valley, but the streets are very narrow, and people and cars are crowded together. They encountered several accidents along the way.

"Moon City is better." Jiang Lu whispered.

"It's still good." A male student said, "If you have been to a magical country, you will find that big cities are okay, but in small cities, all kinds of cow dung and horse manure are on the street, and no one cleans them at all. It stinks to death .”

"Hey——" Olivia wrinkled her nose.

"What are we going to do at the Mana Well?"

"Seems like a graduate tradition."

"We are the first one, how can there be any tradition?"

"Stupid, it's a tradition from now on!"

"Olivia, what do you think?"

"Don't ask the girls, they are only looking at the knight right now!"

"Rock, why are you staring too?"

The area around the Mana Well is still deserted, but the weeds have been cleared away, tiles are laid, trees are planted, and there are rest chairs, it looks like a garden square.

Some children who were not born in the Middle Kingdom kept holding their chests, and their faces were not very good.

"If you feel that you can't bear it, just stop here." The knight said loudly.

Rock didn't feel anything, and kept walking. After a while, he found that there were only students born in Yuecheng around him, and many immigrant students stopped.

The gay knight stood by the mana well, looked at the number of people, and laughed: "The children nowadays are a lot more squeamish, I can bear it, but they can't bear it."

This smile caused another group of girls to scream.

Rock said angrily, "What on earth did you ask us to do?"

"Let you experience magic." The knight smiled and said, "Is there any magic so far... Well, it's just you, boy!"

Rock froze for a moment and pointed to himself.

"Yes, it's just you!" The gay knight came over and leaned forward to support Roque's shoulders. The heat spread over him, and he couldn't help blushing, "Come and try."

First is the smallest fireball.

"Did you feel it?" The gay knight asked Rock to stand by the well, holding his shoulder and said softly, "The churning magic energy..."

Rock really felt it, extremely... extremely thick, like something substantial, he tried to reach out and touch it, wow, it was like smoke, but the smoke didn't dissipate, it wasn't like gas, it was more like sticky sugar, by the way flow with his movements.

"It's like throwing something." The knight said softly, "Bound it up and throw it out. Don't forget to chant the spell."

Rock's grades are very good, no matter which subject, even if he has never practiced a successful magic class.He chanted the mantra clearly and loudly, the ball of "sticky sugar" suddenly began to vibrate, gradually changed, and slowly burned as if it had a will of its own, he could still hold the ball but did not feel the heat!

Wow……

"throw it out!"

Following this prompt, Rock threw the ball out, and a small fireball burned for a while before extinguishing.

"Congratulations, you have used the first magic in your life!" The gay knight said with a smile, "Now, do you want to try more?"

"Think!" Rock said loudly.

The knight's pretty smile twitched, and said, "Actually, you don't have to be so loud..."

Rock's experiments started with low-level magic, and he found that the combination of magic energy became more and more complicated. Some even formed two substances and then made the two substances react, much like chemistry. He enjoyed the whole process obsessively, joy Incomparable, it didn't stop until he cast a sixth-level spell.

"Olivia! Olivia! Look, 'made out of nothing', this is a little bird I created! It's not a magic bird, it's a real bird!" Rock shouted excitedly holding a crow, "Six Class!"

Olivia's expression was almost dull: "So it's true, some people in the Middle Kingdom are not restricted by the magic position!"

"Magic bit?" Rock's overheated brain calmed down, "That's right, I don't have a magic bit."

"You don't have any magic yet!" The gay knight patted Rock on the head, "If you leave the magic well, you won't be able to use anything!"

"Oh, that's it." Rock stroked the bird with some disappointment, "Then will it disappear?"

"No, as long as the 'creation of nothing' is created, it will not disappear, it is a real life." The knight said.

Rock breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good! Can we still play?"

"Play until you are tired!"

Rock and a group of classmates played until dark. They used all kinds of magic, and they were all exhausted but excited when they left.The same is true for the second day, the third day is okay, the fourth day... They couldn't help but chivalrously said in the hotel: "When can we go back?"

The handsome gay knight blinked: "Don't you want to stay forever?"

"It's nothing interesting." Rock said, "It's just magic."

"Isn't magic very convenient?" the knight said with a smile.

"That's just next to the mana well." Someone said, "And I heard that there is a limit to the magic that a real mage can use in a day?"

"Yeah, I heard that there are no more than twenty legendary mages a day."

"Why did I hear ten?"

"It's the worst one."

"What's the use of one?"

"If there is no paper in the toilet, you can change it into paper."

A group of teenagers laughed happily, completely unaware that such a comment would have sent them to the gallows more than 20 years ago.

"Okay, then Mai Beitan's magical journey is over." The gay knight said in a good-tempered manner, "You can leave today."

The teenagers cheered and couldn't wait to rush back to the room to pack their luggage and embark on the journey that lasted for half a month.

"Where is the next stop?"

"Let me see, Holy Thunder!"

"Wow, go quickly, I heard that there are dragons!"

"And we're going with Might and Magic!"

"Wow, this is my first time using Might and Magic!"

The children rushed out of Maibei Valley with their suitcases. A rising sun had just passed the highest point of the Luofeng Mountains, illuminating the way forward.
