the last magic noble

Chapter 28 "Twist and Turn" Meeting
At the checkpoint at the foot of the mountain, five or six mages stopped us.

Of course, Laura's demeanor is not very friendly, not to mention our posture seems to be seeking revenge.Just as I put my hand on the dagger at my waist, preparing for the worst, the unexpected happened.

Richards turned his head and yelled at Laura: "You lowly servant, you still don't let me go. This place is already in my territory. Are you afraid that I will be eaten? It's really stupid, don't think If you two save me, you can escape the fate of being my servants."

Laura was stunned by the sudden yelling, and the few barren magicians who came didn't know what was going on.I turned my head around and knew that Richards was avoiding conflict. Although I didn't know what medicine she sold in her gourd, the best way now was to do what she said.

So I got off the donkey, quickly let go of Richards, bowed my head and said, "I'm really sorry, ma'am, it's our fault." As I said that, I tugged on Laura's sleeve.Laura reluctantly lowered her head and gave me a hard look.

"That's about the same." Richards said, packed his clothes, and said to the barren magicians on the opposite side: "Why are you still standing there? Open the door and let us in. These two are my new servants, clumsy .I have to hurry up and train them when I go back.”

Seeing this, the mages guarding the checkpoint hurried out of the way, and Richards led us swaggeringly towards the castle on the mountain.

"Why are you helping us?" Laura asked puzzled.But Richards walked in front without looking back, and said: "I don't want the barren magician to be wiped out."

With the power of the two of us, how can we wipe out the Desolate Mage, and now I can't use the power of Mordred's sword as wantonly as before.It's a good thing Richards didn't know, or we'd be prisoners by now.

Passed through a manor, went through two inspections, and finally arrived outside the castle.This castle is very similar to the old castle of Merlin College. The difference is that the gate of Merlin College is sealed with wood and copper, and the gate here is a sawtooth gate similar to a city gate.It seems that it should be made of cast iron and painted, which is extremely solid, making the whole castle look like a military fortress.

"Let's go, it's not too late, I'll take you to see my teacher." Richards said, leading us around the castle.I don't know how long we went around, we stopped outside a quaint gate.

Richards turned to us and said, "Okay, here you go."

"What do you mean? Where is Sok Olvia?" I asked strangely.

"Haha, forget about Sok Olvia!" Richards suddenly began to laugh wantonly in her charming voice: "Do you two really think that I will take you to meet my teacher? Tell the truth You guys, stay in this dungeon for the rest of your life!"

After I finished speaking, my eyes went dark, and I lost consciousness again.

. . .

When I woke up again, I was already in a dark and dark dungeon.

"Laura! Laura!" I smeared and looked around for Laura.

Suddenly, Laura snorted softly in the corner.I hurriedly followed the sound and looked for it. Laura saw the darkness around her, so she tried to light a fire with magic.But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't summon the flames.

I felt something was wrong, so I tried to summon Gaines to ask about the situation, but after the spell was finished, I couldn't feel any change, and even Gaines seemed to evaporate out of thin air.

I suddenly understood, but I still need some verification, so I closed my eyes and tried to perceive the flow of elements around me, but no matter how I tried, my elemental perception could not be used.

I sat back beside Laura and said dejectedly, "Laura, don't bother, I guess there is something special about this dungeon that has sealed the magic power of both of us."

"What about Mr. Gaines?" Laura asked anxiously.

I shook my head: "I don't know, I can't summon him anymore, as if he didn't exist at all."

Laura sighed, and said leisurely: "We shouldn't trust that woman with a vicious heart. My mother said before that the more beautiful a woman is, the more vicious she is."

I quickly stopped: "Laura, you are wrong to say that, at least you are not like this, you are beautiful and you have a good heart."

"Cut, don't be so talkative. But having said that, Hemmer, you are destined to save the entire wizarding world. Maybe it's also my destiny. I met you at the gate of the school." Laura said, her voice gradually lowered.

I suddenly asked Laura curiously: "That's right, Laura, we didn't meet a few times at that time, how can you be so sure that you like me?"

"How do I know, it's just the first impression." Laura said in a mosquito-like voice.

I was having fun, and Laura threw the shawl at me angrily.I took the bundle of shawls with a flash of inspiration.

"There is a way!" I slapped my head.

When Laura heard that I had a solution, she regained her spirits and ran over to ask me what I could do.

I tried the shawl and said, "Laura, where did you get that shawl?"

Laura said: "When I was in Eldo Village, an old lady gave it to me before I left. What's the matter?"

I said excitedly: "That's it, our hope of escape lies in this shawl." After I finished speaking, I started to get busy.This cell should be designed to hold magicians, so a magic seal was added, but it may be the mindset of magicians, so they used thin iron bars instead of thick wood to make the cells closed, and there were also placed in the cell. A bucket of water.This gives us a chance.

I soaked the sackcloth shawl in the water, twisted it into strips, and kicked off the ends of the handle of the barrel with my feet.

Laura watched me go about my business, still confused.After I got everything ready, I waited until the sackcloth shawl was completely soaked.By the way, I explained it to Laura, the noble lady: "After the linen is soaked, it is condensed into a rope, and the two ends are knotted. Then, a crowbar is inserted in the middle of the rope and twisted in one direction, so that the iron that is not too thick can be twisted. The strip is twisted."

After hearing this, Laura nodded again and again, but she was still curious: "If you say that, isn't every prisoner able to escape?"

I handed one end of the shawl to her, and asked her to hold it tightly, and then I took the other end and twisted the cloth rope, and said while twisting: "My eldest lady, where do you get a bucket or a crowbar in an ordinary prison cell? Can there be straw?" It is good enough to make a floor. There is also a special bucket here. I guess this cell is specially used to detain magicians, and the designer probably doesn't know how to make a cell for ordinary prisoners. The simplest example is , Why are the partitions of ordinary prison cells made of rough wood? It is because the rough wood is very thick and after it is painted with oil, this method will not work. "

After listening to my explanation, Laura patted my head and said with a smile, "Hey, I said Hummer, why do you know so much?"

I shrugged helplessly: "I heard these from customers who came and went from north to south in the grocery store. One of the customers said that he used this method to escape from a prison cell."

"Do you dare to accept this kind of desperado?" Laura looked at me in surprise.

I still shrugged, not knowing how to answer.A noble lady like Laura is already a role model among the noble ladies. She doesn't particularly care about the gap between classes, and can get along with ordinary people.But after all, the living environment is different. For a person like me who runs a shop with my uncle in a small town, the welcome and pampering are different from hers.

Laura knew that she had said the wrong thing, so she also shut up and said nothing.I tried it, and seeing that the rope was almost twisted, I wound the rope around two iron bars, tied the knot, put the crowbar in the middle, and twisted it with all my strength.

To be honest, although I heard the exuberance from that desperado, it was the first time I actually did it myself. Of course, it was also the first time I was in a prison.So I'm still beating my head as to whether this approach will work.

After twisting and turning, the cloth strips were already tightened. Laura leaned forward to take a closer look, and then shouted excitedly: "Humer! It really works!" The two iron strips had been pulled together , so we changed positions again, and repeatedly bent the two iron bars to allow people to get out. I asked Laura to follow me, and we were both small and easy to get out.

After looking around, two people came downstairs, and Laura and I hid in the dark and listened to their conversation.

"I heard that Richards suffered a big loss this time. He was beaten miserably by two little mages in Eldor Village."

"Yeah, but why did she go to Eldo Village so far away?"

"Who knows, I heard that since Richards took over the Desolate Magician Group, they have done a lot of shady things behind the lord's back."

"Shh, you can't talk nonsense. Be careful not to be caught and fed to wild animals."

"I'm not talking nonsense, don't tell me you don't know. I heard from some villagers who donated to the castle that some of their relatives' villages were looted. I heard that there is a group of barren magicians." credit'."

"Enough, stop here. The lord trusts her so much, what can you do? It's strange, why do you say the lord trusts her so much, could it be..."

Speaking of this, the two laughed.I gave Laura a wink, and Laura and I waited at the bottom of the stairs, and when they came down, we hit them on the back of the head with dry torches.

The two guards fell to the ground with a muffled sound.I checked and they were still breathing, so I hid them under the stairs.

After packing up, Laura and I changed into our guard clothes and walked out of the dungeon along the steps.Before that, Laura and I tried it just in case, and the magic power has been restored.I hid the dagger in my sleeve, secretly awakening the elemental power of the dagger.

All that's left is to have a "friendly" exchange with the hateful Richards and Sauk Olvia.
