Chapter 54 [Frozen Forest, World of Warcraft] (Part 1)
What makes Du Wei depressed is that everything the old magician bought was with Du Wei's money. When Du Wei was arrested, he also had a money bag with him, which contained hundreds of gold coins.
.
He hurriedly put on his fur coat, put on his sheepskin hat, covered his ears with the thick brim of the hat, put on his snow boots, and hung up a waist knife... Du Wei already looked very and somewhat like he often
The adventurers who came to adventure in the frozen forest.
After leaving the hotel, a small sled was parked outside, and four sturdy gray snow dogs were lying on the ground obediently.
The space on the sled was very small, so Du Wei had to squeeze in with the old magician. The old magician still wore the same white robe... This guy didn't seem to be afraid of the cold at all. But Du Wei leaned against him and realized
He knew the secret. This old guy didn't know what kind of magic he had done. When he was close to him, Du Wei felt as if he was next to a stove. The old magician's body exuded warmth.
"Hmph, is it amazing to be able to do magic?" Du Wei snorted.
But what he was curious about was that this sleigh had no driver.
This old magician is an "all-rounder" and is even proficient in driving a sleigh. I didn't see him shouting anything. He just sat on the sleigh. The magician said softly, "Let's go!"
The four strong sled dogs on the ground in front immediately started running as hard as they could! Wherever they turned or where they slowed down, they didn't need the old magician to control them at all. The sled dogs just ran with the sled honestly, in the vast white snow.
On the ground, the sled dragged a long mark and headed north.
Even though he was wearing a fur coat and a hat, Du Wei still felt that the cold wind was hurting the skin on his face, and he couldn't open his eyes. He could only lean on the hot old magician as much as possible to absorb a little warmth.
The cold wind in the north is made of knives... Du Wei, whether in his previous life or in this life, has lived in the south and has never been to the north. He has never seen such endless ice and snow weather many times in his life.
Along the way, I couldn't help but curse the hateful old magician and the damn weather!
The sun was still hanging above his head, but there was no warmth at all. Du Wei shrank into a ball. After a while, the mucus under his nose had condensed into a string of ice particles. He wiped it hard,
A piece of flesh was almost torn off, and Du Wei was so painful that he almost shed tears.
The frozen forest is located at the northern end of the continent...it is said to be the northernmost point of the continent.
This is also the "border" officially set by the Roland Empire. Under normal circumstances, the people of the empire are not allowed to continue going north.
Further north, the frozen forest is not only filled with freezing cold winds and snow, it is not only an endless forest... more importantly, it is one of the only two areas on the continent where Warcraft activities are extremely frequent!
The empire has stationed a regiment of troops at the southern end of the frozen forest. The empire's northern "Storm Legion" spreads out along the southern edge of the frozen forest, and all roads leading to the frozen forest are set up
Passed the level...
Of course, these are just obvious.
But secretly, there are still many mercenary teams that go on adventures in the frozen forest every year, as well as some small adventure teams... These people often have some skills. Those terrifying monsters in the frozen forest,
In the eyes of these people, they are like golden coins!
If the furs and magic cores of various magical beasts can be hunted and transported to the south, they can be sold at a high price.
Regarding this almost semi-open "smuggling" activity, the empire's attitude is actually "tacit approval".
Those armies walking on the southern border of the frozen forest are actually just preventing ordinary people from entering this dangerous area, while those adventurers with special skills, such as magicians or high-level warriors, can often hide silently.
They have to go through military patrols and searches. Some larger adventure teams even dare to confront small groups of patrolling troops for the sake of smuggling!
The continent of Roland is a place where martial arts are appreciated. Although strong people like magicians are in the minority, there are actually quite a few warriors. Faced with the benefits of adventure, there are still many people who are willing to go all out and fight for it.
Less than half a day's walk north of the town where Du Wei and the old magician set out, Du Wei and others came to a checkpoint and looked at the imperial soldiers wearing white leather robes... These men from the North were obviously more mature than the others.
Du Wei had to bear the cold much more, and there were even some high-level warriors, wearing only leather vests, with their furry chests exposed, and shirtless, right next to the checkpoint, grabbing a lot of snow in the ice and snow to scrub themselves.
While wiping, he shouted and sang loudly.
This level was built on the mainland without using stones... The frozen soil in the north is harder than stones. Just dig out some relatively soft soil and pile it up during the warmest time every summer, and then pour water on it.
One night's cold wind is enough to freeze a solid earth wall!
Looking at the soldiers wearing thick white leather robes and leather hats with ice ridges on their heads, Du Wei didn't know whether to marvel or admire. Anyway, he just shrank tightly.
The old magician whistled, and the four snow dogs stopped in front of the checkpoint.
There were about a hundred or ten soldiers in front of this level. Seeing a small sled running over and stopping in front of them in the ice and snow, everyone immediately surrounded them. The soldiers all reached out to touch their swords intentionally or unintentionally. The one who grabbed the sword in the ice and snow
The strong man who came to bathe in Xue was obviously the captain here. He immediately threw away the snow in his hand, grabbed a spear and ran over in stride.
In the snow, this warrior ran extremely fast. He ran in front of Du Wei in a few seconds. From a visual inspection, this guy could be called a "barbarian". His long beard almost obscured his three sides.
One's face looks extremely rough. Judging from his running skills in the snow, it seems that his martial arts skills are quite impressive.
These soldiers blocked the road. Someone was about to say something, but when he saw the old magician's clothes, he immediately shut his mouth!
These soldiers who handle the frozen forests in the north are well-informed. Magicians like to come here all year round to catch a few rare monsters in the forest. Magic cores are a magic material that magicians like.
As soon as these people saw the old magician's clothes, they knew the other party's identity... Although the old magician's clothes did not have any magician-level badges hanging on them.
In fact, this is also a common thing in the Frozen Forest... The magicians who come here are all aware of the empire's prohibitions. Although magicians have a transcendent status, they still cannot do things that openly challenge the empire, so in order to conceal their identities,
They would not hang up their own magic level badges. In this way, on the one hand, they showed their identity as a magician to intimidate the soldiers blocking the way, and on the other hand, they also hid their true name and identity.
After all, there are not many magicians on the mainland. If you wear a badge and the other party knows your level, if you really want to settle a score, you can go back to the Magician's Guild to find out what level the magician looks like and what he looks like.
Check it out.
Therefore, in the frozen forest, it has become a semi-public habit for magicians to only wear wizard robes but no badges... This is the so-called "doing bad things without leaving a name".
Du Wei stared, looking a little excited. In his opinion, there was no hope for this small group of soldiers to block the road. Although Du Wei didn't know how powerful this old guy was... but he could train him
A magic genius like Vivian can easily give a dragon as a gift to his apprentice... How can such a guy be so capable?
If a fight were to begin, Du Wei bet that the magician would be able to make all these hundred or ten soldiers lie down in a few seconds at most.
But Du Wei was disappointed.
The old magician stopped the sleigh calmly, then fumbled in his arms for a long time before taking out a piece of crumpled parchment - there is a habit in the magician circle, they don't like to use any ordinary paper, so
Everything that needs to be recorded literally is in sheepskin.
"Gentlemen, I have an official document from the Magician's Guild here." The old magician smiled and handed the parchment to the barbarian warrior: "The Magician's Guild has granted me the privilege of entering the frozen forest."
Looking at the old magician with a kind face, the leading samurai was stunned.
Although he looks rough, he also has some concerns in his heart. He has been ordered to guard the entrance of this frozen forest for many years, and he has seen a lot, and he has met not just one or two magicians.
Often those magicians are all people with eyes higher than their heads. Either they simply use spells to fly over directly, or a gust of wind sweeps them past, so that these soldiers can't even touch them.
Or, just show your hand in public, scare the soldiers, and then walk over in a big way.
After all, these are common practice, and everyone knows that if the magician really wants to force his way in, there will definitely be no way for hundreds of people to stop him.
However, it is really rare for this kind magician to politely present legal documents and look like he is negotiating!
With a suspicious expression on his face, the captain warrior handed over this crumpled parchment.
I don’t know how many years have passed since the object in my hand. The handwriting has become a little blurred, and the sheepskin is even somewhat tattered and tattered. The captain held it carefully in his hand for fear of damaging it.
But when he saw the words above...the captain couldn't help but his face changed, and his eyes almost popped out!
"I have hereby an official letter. Those who hold this official letter can enter the frozen forest unconditionally. No imperial military or imperial local government personnel may stop them! This official document is valid for...one hundred years!!"
What the fuck is this? Valid for a hundred years?
Is this old guy trying to trick me? The captain couldn't help but start thinking wildly when he saw this. He has also encountered some liars...
We all know that in this place, the military generally does not dare to stop magicians, and there are also some liars who dress up in magician robes to fool people.
But take another look at the signature below this document...
"Emperor of Roland Empire, Augustine V & President of Roland Continent Magicians Guild Zuridea."
A document jointly signed by His Majesty the Emperor and the President of the Magician's Guild?
And, what’s even more terrible is.
The Emperor Augustine V who signed the signature has been dead for sixty years! And the current president of Roland Continent Magician Union has been replaced a long time ago! The president who signed the signature also died of illness forty years ago at the age of
One hundred and nineteen years old!
The signatures of the former emperor of the empire and the former president of the Magician's Guild?
What is this guy's background?
The captain can naturally tell if this thing is real or fake! The signature can be forged, but the seal on it cannot be forged! The seal of His Majesty the Emperor and the seal of the president of the Magician's Guild all have magic anti-counterfeiting marks!
When you hold the document in your hand, these two seals will slowly appear on the parchment, and then slowly disappear...
The captain was immediately in awe!
The identity of the old magician in front of me must be to a certain extent! He is at least an old man of the same era as the former emperor of the empire and the former president of the magician's union!
This kind of person cannot afford to be offended by his own little captain!
Even the captain couldn't help but guess...it's valid for one hundred years...how old is this old guy this year?
He respectfully rolled up the parchment, put it in front of the magician with both hands, and said in a polite tone: "Dear Magician, welcome to the Frozen Forest! The 20th White Wolf Infantry Regiment of the Northern Storm Legion of the Empire
Patrol Team 7 salutes you! If you have any other requests, we will try our best to cooperate!"
The old magician was very polite: "No, just please get out of the way."
In a word, the soldiers blocking the road retreated one after another, and even took the initiative to quickly clear the snow in front of the pass, and then lined up to see off the old magician's sleigh as he left.
Seeing Guan Guan far behind him, Du Wei couldn't help but ask: "That document... is it true?"
"Really..." the old magician replied calmly: "However, today is the last day of validity."
Du Wei stuck out his tongue: "The last day?"
He looked at the old magician's profile and couldn't help but ask: "How old...are you?"
"Children, has the tutor of the Luo Lin family fallen to this level? You should use honorifics when asking about the age of an elder." The old magician smiled and said: "I...well, my age..."
Having said this, a trace of melancholy flashed in the old magician's eyes: "I can't even remember it myself."
