The Primordial Wizard

It was mid-winter, and Ace and Dana were braving the ice and snow, breathing in the cold air. They slid on the thick ice until they reached the bottom of the hill with snow canes and sleds given them by kind people from the north.

The two looked up at the majestic fortress on the hill, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone through, reflecting mottled dots. They stowed the sleds and carried them on their backs, dressed in thick fur northerner costumes, leaned on snow canes, and climbed to the top of the hill.

When the two arrived at the South City Gate, the sun was about to set.

A group of soldiers holding a standard short sword in their right hand and a standard round shield in their left hand, wearing leather armor with both warmth and defense effects, guarding the gate of the fortress.

"Stranger, please show your ID!" said the tall and thin soldier in the lead. He had a red tassel on his head, which was the emblem of the squad leader.

"If you are a nobleman, please show your coat of arms; if you are a citizen, please show your badge; if you are a public official, please show your badge; if you are a free citizen, please show the pottery tablet issued by the king city!"

Another soldier walked up to the two and said.

Ace took out his scholar's badge, Dana took out his citizen's badge, and the two handed them to the soldiers who came over. He was a somewhat vicissitudes uncle, with a characteristic plateau red on his face, and a full beard. Grooming, somewhat messy, reminds Ace of his father Romon.

If Romon was still in the army, it would probably look like this, Ace thought.

The uncle studied the badge for a while, confirmed that it was correct, reported to the captain, and took two pottery fragments from the captain.

"This is the pass certificate for the northern fortress. It is valid within three months. If you want to apply for a long-term residence certificate, please go to the fortress office." He handed them two irregular pottery tablets, which were branded with an eagle and a banner.

"My name is Sauron. I am very familiar with the northern fortress. You can ask me for help if you need anything. As long as Yin Tale is in place, I will live in the first alley to the right of the city gate."

He winked at the two of Ace, said in a low voice, and turned back to the team.

Ace and Dana entered the northern fortress, it was already evening, they first went to a cheap hotel in the fortress to ask for two rooms, and stayed temporarily.

"Go to Sauron's residence early tomorrow morning. I'm not familiar with the place here. It might be a good choice to ask a local snake for help." Ace said to Dana.

"What do you want to do?"

Daina asked with some puzzlement.

"I need to make a name fast, Dana. Before I was a wizard apprentice, I was a doctor. I want to build a hospital in the north, and that requires fame. I want to build a hospital with you Let's explore the northern border together and study monsters." Ace explained.

"I understand. Then I will go to the nearby demon hunting camp tomorrow to inquire about the situation. First explore the road. When you are ready, we will set off together."

Dana showed a big smile and said to Ace.

Early the next morning, Ace and Dana separated. Going to look for Sauron alone, he walked into the first alley on the right of the south gate, which was a bit dark.

A little girl in thick fur clothes and wrapped into a small ball was running happily there.

Ace showed a standard and kind smile, and asked the little girl with a smile: "Little sister, do you know where Sauron's house is?"

The little girl who was running looked at Ace vigilantly, shook her head vigorously like a spinning top, and said, "Jeanna didn't tell you where Sauron's house is. Uncle Sauron said that those who like to squint and smile are not good people."

Ace's expression suddenly collapsed, and the corners of his mouth twitched a little. This Sauron really knows how to teach children, and he wants to beat him up for no reason.

Ace's eyes flashed with the rune structure, and the soul spell "Hint" was activated, accompanied by the rhythm of magic power, Ace said in a trustworthy voice: "Little sister, I am a friend of Sauron, not a bad person, please tell me ?”

Jeanna's eyes were clear, she was not affected by Ace at all, and said firmly: "You are lying! And your eyes are flickering, very scary,

Jeanne was afraid! "

After finishing speaking, she ran away in a hop, and got into a yard.

Ace's eyes were dignified, which was very unusual. From his perception, there was nothing special about Jeanne, except for the abnormal purity of her mental power.

Could it be that this kind of pure spiritual power or soul is immune to charm spells?

Ace followed Jeanna into the yard.

"Uncle, uncle! There are bad people, and there are bad people who bully Jeanna."

While running, the little girl wiped her tears and peeked through her fingers.

"Who dares to bully our little Rangna, uncle is here."

Sauron was dressed in casual clothes, carrying a sword and shield, and rushed out of the house.

Seeing Sauron, Ace bowed gracefully and said, "Mr. Sauron, I'm here to seek your help."

When Sauron saw Ace, he threw his sword and shield to the ground in embarrassment, and then laughed and said, "Hahaha, Ace scholar. This is all a misunderstanding, Jeanna, go back to the house first, uncle and Ace Scholar on business."

After listening to Sauron's words, Jeanne ran into the house and closed the door with a snap.

Sauron was about to talk to Ace when the door creaked open again, revealing Jeanna's little head.

"Uncle, this squinting eye will flicker, it's scary, you have to be careful."

Zoro looked at Rangna who slammed the door shut again, smiled dotingly, and said, "My child is more shy, please don't blame the Ace scholars, it's not suitable for talking about things here, why don't you go to a nearby tavern for a drink , let's talk slowly."

Ace looked at Sauron with a smile, stared at him a little hairy, and said, "Of course it's no problem, please lead the way."

The two arrived at the tavern, the lights were dim, Ace paid two silver thalers, the two asked for a small room, served roast chicken, roast leg of lamb, pan-fried foie gras and other dishes, and ordered two cans of soju.

"This shochu is really good. I heard that it is produced in Wangcheng, and it is especially suitable for people in the northern region. The snow in our northern region does not melt all year round, and the cold wind is biting. Warm a can of shochu and drink it in your stomach, and your body will be clear!"

Sauron cut off a small piece of foie gras with a knife, forked it with a fork, chewed it vigorously in his mouth, took a sip of shochu with the wine, and closed his eyes to savor it.

Ace didn't care, he knew that Zoro wanted to give him a big meal. However, now he not only wants to use Sauron, but also wants to understand Jeanna's secret, the northern border, which is really interesting.

Ace tore off a piece of roasted chicken leg and chewed it.

The two chatted for a while, and Sauron suddenly said loudly: "You want to be famous, but do you want to be famous immediately?"

"Yes, what can you do?"

Ace asked with a smile. He actually wanted to ask Sauron to understand the basic situation in the northern border. He knew almost everything about drinking.

He is more interested in Jeanna. In order to reduce Sauron's vigilance, he gave him a task and made a deal to make him more at ease.

"Let me think about it. It's okay to be famous. It's up to me, but I need to know what you know, what you want to be famous, and whether you have enough Jintale!"
