Magus Tech

Mid-snow month.

A long convoy was driving along the road, and the convoy was full of wizards and wizard apprentices in the hut of the jungle hut.

Similar to what the wizards mentioned at the beginning, many wizards actively participated in the exchange conference of the Dark Blue Fort, so it was only a dark place, and they attended 31 wizard apprentices, 17 first-level wizards, and five second-level wizards. Wizards, including the administrator Aiwa.Although this is not a move out of the nest, after all, some people are needed to stay behind, but it is almost half of the strength. Richard is one of these people.

"Squeaky..."

"Da Da Da Da..."

The convoy continues to move forward, some people try to sit in the carriage with ease, and some people don't want to be bound to choose to ride, because there is no unified command, and the entire team stretches very long.

In general, there is a big hidden danger in this way of travel. Once a thief attacks from the middle, the entire team will be cut off and caught in a situation surrounded by divisions.But in the team, after all, there are people with extraordinary strength, and I am really not too worried about this.There were really thieves attacking, it was only the thieves themselves, not the convoy.

Richard rode on the horse, traveling in the middle of the team, his expression calm.There is not much tension, but it has not completely relaxed its vigilance and maintained its due sharpness.

After walking for a while, following the entire convoy to the edge of a huge lake, Richard took the map from his arms and glanced at it. His eyebrows could not help but pick.Turning his head, he looked at the wizard Teddy, who was riding a horse, and asked, "Teddy, the lake next to this is called Taklamakan?"

"Yeah." The wizard Teddy looked over. Although he had many shortcomings, as a librarian in the gathering place, the knowledge was still passable, and he quickly gave a definite answer.

After giving the answer, it is customary to add: "In other words, do you think that the name of this lake is very mouthful? It is not like the mirror lake and the sapphire lake. It is not as nice and memorable."

"You know the reason?" Li Cha asked, but he was thinking: Is this another coincidence?

Teddy replied with some ostentation: "Of course I know the reason, who am I? Let me tell you, the name of this lake is because of the indigenous language a long time ago. I heard that in the indigenous language, "Taklamakan" It means the sea of ​​death, which means it is dangerous here."

"The Sea of ​​Death? Very dangerous?" Richard looked at the lake. "If it's really dangerous, why should we go this way?"

"Well, this--" The wizard Teddy was suddenly stuck. Although his knowledge level passed, he did not mean omniscience and omnipotence. He explained after a long time, "This is actually a rumor, it should not be taken seriously. According to the rumor, this There is a powerful grim reaper in the lake, who usually sleeps and ignores the world, but every few hundred years, he will wake up once and take away all the life he can see, whether it is humans or animals, even the soil, with powerful force. Deep creepers are let go.

You see, this kind of rumor, just listen, if it's serious, it's ridiculous.After all, we are wizards, not priests, nor stupid peasants and peasants. How can we believe that there is such a thing as death."

Li Cha heard nothing, but showed a thoughtful expression.

"I said, aren't you!" Teddy yelled, looking at Richard's exaggeration. "You won't tell me, you believe in Grim Reaper? I always think you are smart, if you really are like this , I will be disappointed."

Richard listened and shook his head, continuing his thoughtful expression: "I don't believe in death, I'm just thinking about the rumors you said."

"Ok?"

Richard said: "The Taklimakan Lake, the sea of ​​death, the legend of the god of death, these things always have some basis. Right, every few hundred years, the creatures around the lake will die once, and it is also true that it is not true. , Then there must be a hidden reason. Maybe there is no ethereal death, but there will be another thing that really exists."

"Uh, okay." Teddy shrugged. "So what do you think?"

"I don't know, but I can try to gather some information first." Richard said, speaking, throwing the rein in his hand toward Teddy, and letting the other party pull his horse, and jump directly to the ground, toward Walk by the lake.

"Tap..."

Walking to the lake, Li Cha picked up a few rubbles and observed them, then picked up a handful of water and observed them for a moment.

"Why, did you find out?" Teddy asked curiously.

"No." Richard shakes his head, walks back to the horse, takes the reins from Teddy's hand, and then turns over the horse, responding, "It can only be determined at present, not the quality of the water."

"It's really nonsense!" A voice sounded from the side, the wizard Fan Haixin.The other party also participated in this exchange meeting. At this time, I saw the opportunity to ridicule Richard, and I never let it go.

"If there is a problem with the water quality, then this lake will be a dead lake. Not to mention the fish and shrimp in the lake, even the plants on the shore will not grow. But in fact, there are many fish and shrimp in this lake. The plants have never been less. It is now snowy moon, it is not obvious, when the summer is hot, the dense plant can scare you." Fan Haixin rolled his eyes, very disdainful, "So say, some people It looks good, but in fact it just talks nonsense like a fart, eh!"

After hearing Fan Haixin's words, Teddy suddenly became angry and looked at Fan Haixin and shouted: "Fan Haixin, who are you talking about! Explain the point!"

"Humph." Fan Haixin glanced at Teddy, squinting, "Anyway, you're right without saying you, and you don't want to put yourself on it. After all, you are also a wizard, so it's not good to look down on yourself."

Talking, Fan Haixin slammed his whip and accelerated forward.

Teddy was very angry, spitting at Fan Haixin's back, and then turned to look at Richard, but could not help but stunned: "Hey, are you not angry?"

"Angry?" Richard shook his head and asked, "Why should I be angry."

"He was scolding you just now, saying you fart!" Teddy puzzled.

"But I'm not a kid anymore, can't I scold each other?" Li Cha chuckled, then changed his tone, revealing a thoughtful expression, "In other words, I would like to thank him because of his words , But reminded me that I had a new conjecture about the Taklimakan Lake."

"New guess? What?"

"That's what he called me."

"Huh?" Teddy still didn't understand.

"Wait until I'm sure, let me tell you." Richard said, not going to explain more.

"Anyway." Teddy shrugged, not very curious, and hit the horse forward, Richard followed.
