Vol 4 Chapter 3: Rose Manor (Part 1)

Early the next morning, the family convoy hit the road again.
Despite such a battle last night, it was weird that the two teams faced all of this and it seemed that no one had shown the fear, panic and anger they deserved. It seemed as normal as it could be. Afterwards, it was just a cleanup of the battlefield. No one planned to report it.
They understand each other that they each have secrets that they want to keep, and no one wants them out of the knot.
The two teams have a tacit understanding in this situation.
The Ett family's team went on the road first, while the Dardanelles and Weston family teams went for a night at night and chose another route.
It's like the simplest meeting of Pingshui, without asking each other, and then go their separate ways.
Once out of the Mehar Plain, enter Hardiwe's Territory.
The Hardyway Territory belongs to the oldest family of the Empire, the Hardyway family. Because the family ruled here as long as the history of the empire, its former name has been forgotten, leaving only Hardyway territory.
After the Hardyway Territory, it was the Camp group, and a few days' walk would bring us to Warrington.
Along the way, Xiuyi admired the scenery along the way, feeling relaxed.
If you don't consider the storm that night, then this time belongs to his rare leisure time.
During this time, all he had to do was practice and continue to study the various alchemy techniques left on Electra's notebook.
The laboratory was taken care of by Nancy. He didn't have to worry about anything anymore. The attentive woman had become his best helper. After that sad morning, she was so sad that she just wanted to find a place to live with her children.
To her, Valley Lab is heaven.
Since the battle with Kevin Beers, Xiuyi has learned a lot more about power. Although he is now subject to the sixth level that he can't break for the time being too short, he believes that day will come sooner or later.
The thousand blades that he realized during the battle have already taken shape. Although affected by the fighting spirit, the power is limited, but I believe that among the fighters of the same level, he can already be proud of it.
However, Xiu Yi's main energy is still focused on wind spells.
He is now a wind, talented magician, and generally it is not too difficult to cultivate. Xiu Yi has been practicing for many years. Due to lack of energy, upgrading has been slow. However, the true power of wind-based spells cannot be reflected until the fourth level.
So Xiuyi was determined to break through the threshold of the fourth level.
The upgrade of the spell was originally more difficult, which was mainly restricted by magic.
Without enough mana, it is impossible to use powerful spells and spells. What about breakthroughs?
But for Xiu Yi, who has the same source of magic power, this is not a problem, because the mana currently in his body is actually equivalent to a fifth-level mage. The reason why he didn't upgrade is because he has limited mastery of low-level spells.
During this time, Xiu Yi was idle and he repeatedly contacted the wind spell.
The family carriage, the horse that drove the carriage, and even the subordinates who followed him all released various wind spells one by one for proficiency and mastering the use skills. For others, the slow recovery of magic power allows them to practice a limited number of times per day, but for Xiuyi, who has a large amount of magic recovery potion, this is not a problem at all.
Utilizing his two innate advantages, Xiu Yi estimates that if it takes three to five years for others to be promoted from Mage Feng to the fourth level, he can do this for as long as six months.
It has been almost three months since Xiuyi became a mage. During this time, he obeyed Buckler's instructions, focused on wind spells, and constantly improved his mastery and proficiency of various spells. Even Lan's strength has improved a lot.
After a month at most, you can enter the fourth level. Xiu Yiluo was thinking happily.
After entering the Kamp group, the scenery here is clearly beautiful.
At the time of spring, the mountains and the fields were full of blooming flowers, red green white yellow and various colors.
The Camp group, known as the Rainbow Group in the Reims Empire, is mainly due to the rich variety of exotic flowers and beautiful scenery. Here is the Rose River that runs through the north and south. It is said that it was an artificial canal ordered by the monarch of the rose. There is the towering Lillegula Mountain. Warcraft; it is said that Electra once built a huge laboratory in Warrington; it is said that there is also a lost temple in the world. According to legend, whoever can find the lost temple can gain extraordinary power.
It can be said that the Camp Group is a place full of legends and legends, and the capital of the Reims Empire is located on the northernmost side of the group.
Some people say that the reason why the rose monarchs must be in the Camp is to find the legendary lost temple.
Others say that the reason why Warrington was chosen as the capital is because it is the closest to the Lillegula Mountains. Even the monarch of Rose is eager to find the largest laboratory in Electra.
No one knows the exact answer, but anyway, Xiuyi came, entered the Camp group, and headed for Warrington ...
A few days later, the team finally saw the low walls of Winrington.
From a distance, the city wall itself is not too tall, but the material used in the construction of the city wall is obsidian as the main material, which has a great immunity from magic. It is then mixed with special lime grass mud and mixed with crushed silver sand. to make.
The walls built with this material are not only indestructible, but most importantly they can withstand most magical attacks.
In the center of the city, there are nine high towers. These nine towers can release the giant magic canopy covering the whole city at a critical moment, and build up Warrington's most powerful defense system.
The sound of the horse's hoof trotting on the carriage finally entered Warrington.
As an imperial capital, Winrington is also the premier large city in the North Continent. It consists of a total of three parts, with a large area of ​​suburban suburbs, a bustling commercial area and the inner guard area where the palace is located.
In the eastern suburbs of Warrington, the most famous talents, artists, and bards of the Reims Empire are concentrated here. This is the palace of imperial art, the center of imperial culture, the famous Olaha Memorial Museum and Meilin Art Expo are here. It has the most gorgeous buildings, the most rare collections, the most exquisite stone carvings and paintings There are also the best opera houses.
The western suburbs are the most beautiful natural scenic area in Warrington. Most said that the nobles who were counted by Wellington had their own estates here. It has beautiful scenery and a good location, and it can be said to be a paradise for rich people. Christine's Rose Manor: 1/6 / m, is located in this area, it is said that the Count Weston personally supervised the construction to marry Christine. The rose is the national flower of the Reims Empire. The moral of the Rose Manor is naturally that he married the most beautiful woman in the Empire.
On the southern outskirts of Warrington, is the famous Castle District. Warrington still adheres to the style of the ancient times in architecture. The roads here are wide, the buildings are mostly domes, the windows are slender, and many are still made of wooden slats. Most people of some sizes use fireplaces, not magic stoves that represent fashion. The central beams of the building are mostly stone beams instead of wooden beams, and there are even many ancient castles. This phenomenon is particularly evident in the ancient castle district.
The old castle area has a large number of ancient castle buildings, most of which are left over from ancient sites. These ancient castles are even older than this city. They first originated in the era when people did not invent magic. At that time, people admired the architecture of stone structure. After the advent of the magic age, people found that whether it was stone or wooden houses, they could not withstand the devastating attacks of magic. In contrast, once a stone house collapsed, it would do more harm to people. Therefore, people started to build a large number of wooden buildings and stay away from flammable structures such as fireplaces as much as possible.
The reason why these ancient castles can be left to this day is that the heroes who have completely sheltered the monarch of roses have a rough and long-term vision. It is his persistence that has allowed the ancient castle to be preserved and is now the most valuable tourist attraction on the continent.
As for the northern suburbs of Warrington, there is not much to boast of here. If there is anything to be said, then there are two buildings that may be compelling.
One of them, called the Arcane Tower, is where the Imperial Wizards Association is located.
The other, called the Holy Spirit Hall, is the headquarters of the Holy Spirit Church in the Reims Empire.
Throughout the northern suburbs, there are two such buildings, and even if there is nothing else, it is equally irresistible.
The carriage entered Winlington, and long-awaited servants of the Weston family approached. Along the long street paved with bluestone slabs, the carriage direction is to the western suburbs.
Sitting in the car and looking outwards, Xiu Yi could see many aristocratic carriages walking across the wide street. The main road on Winrington Avenue is called Brooks Avenue. The name of the road originates from the Grand Duke of Brooks. He is the right assistant of the Lord of the Roses. Brooks Avenue was built by him. It is said that during the construction of Brooks Avenue, the Lord the Duke repeatedly studied the width of the avenue and finally settled on it-this standard width can be paralleled by eight carriages.
This width was confusing to everyone at the time, and considered too unnecessary. But the Grand Duke of Brooks resolutely pursued and eventually completed the avenue.
After the avenue was completed, it was empty at first, and almost no pedestrians could be seen on the wide avenue, which caused many people to laugh at it. But over time, as the city developed, Brooks Avenue, which could accommodate eight carriages in parallel, became bustling and lively.
When the Duke of Brooks died, it became the busiest avenue of the Empire. Less than a hundred years apart, the ultra-wide avenue that can accommodate eight horse-drawn carriages in parallel still cannot meet the needs of the expanding urban roads, becoming more and more bloated, and the empire has to open more roads to divert pedestrian pressure on the main road.
On this road, Xiu Yi saw a bustling scene of a city.
The carriage was slowly moving forward, and the team engraved with the Weston family coat of arms was unimpeded. Occasionally a carriage came across, and after learning that it was Mrs. Christine's convoy, she would take the initiative to evade.
Xiu didn't expect Christine to be so popular here, it seemed she had more energy than she expected.
After crossing Brooks Avenue, the convoy entered the western suburbs of the city. Along the way, they finally arrived at the western suburbs of Warrington.
The western suburbs of Warrington are located on the edge of the city. There are no tall walls here, and some are just beautiful and close to nature.
The entire Rose Manor is built on this natural beauty. Looking far away from the manor, you can see the outline of the manor among the lush green trees and red flowers. Only when you approach it will you find it hidden in the sea of ​​flowers. in.
The farmers opened a path out of the large iris, paved with finely-coated pebbles. The carriage was swaying past it, and with a hand out of the window, a large handful of blue irises could be picked up.
The old housekeeper who was notified early was waiting at the door with the rest of the people. As soon as Christine got out of the car, she let out a weeping cry: "Finally at home, I'm exhausted this way. Gary, find Several people took all my luggage out of the car. Be careful of my new woolen blanket and the red box. Be sure to carry it carefully. It contains some art and can't stand their rough hands. Oh by the way, are the rooms furnished for the Dardanelle family ready? "
The veteran housekeeper named Gary replied respectfully: "Yes Madam, all preparations have been made, and guests of the Dardanelle family will live in the backyard."
"Backyard?" Christine cried. "I said they let them live in the main courtyard."
"But ..." The old housekeeper's face was distressed.
Christine immediately understood: "This is Karen's idea, isn't it?"
The old housekeeper bowed his head and did not speak.
Karen, the younger brother of Kristin's ex-husband, is also one of the current principals of the entire Weston family. According to the nobility inheritance law, the second son is not entitled to inherit the family property unless the will is declared. Before his death, Earl Weston loved his brother so much that he left a will. Christine inherited his family business and his brother inherited the title of Earl. At the same time, Karen Weston will serve as the Family Property Supervisor, overseeing the flow of all family property.
If Christine were to marry, Count Karen Weston had the power to take over most of the family property as the heir to the family. This is something many people don't know. Therefore, Christine is very helpless to her little uncle.
Xiu Yi stepped out of the car: "There is no need to be angry, and there is nothing wrong with living in the backyard. We are guests and we must obey the rules of the host."
"Here, I am the master!" Christine announced seriously.
Xiu Yi smiled: "Yes, I know the fact, the problem is that someone doesn't know, and isn't that why I'm here?"
Looking at the teenager's confident smile, Christine suddenly felt that all her anger was gone.
She nodded: "That's right, then ..." She suddenly raised her jade neck and raised her hand to make an elegant welcome gesture to everyone, saying loudly:
"Welcome everyone to the Rose Manor, the door here is always open for the Dardanelles!"! ~!
