Surdak Hathaway and Beatrice walked out of the villa and a magic van stopped outside.
Chapter 52 Selection
A baroque bell tower stands in the center of the garden square in Hailansa City.
This clock tower is built of bluestone and is the tallest building in this area. The clock tower is carved with exquisite giant reliefs on all sides. Each reliefs tells a glorious history of Hailansa City. It is said that there was once a dragon’s nest and a red dragon occupied the cliff at the southern end of Pagros Mountain, which often invaded human beings in the southern part of Pagros Mountain.
In order to resist this red dragon, people here have built pedestal castles everywhere and invested a lot of money. These castles have installed some giant bed crossbows, but even so, they still can’t stop the intrusion of the red dragon
Duke Newman called Bena swordsmen to organize three dragon hunting operations. Finally, in the last dragon hunting operation, Duke Newman killed the red dragon with a long sword in his hand. Officially, due to the war, the southern foothills of Pagelos Mountain were burnt to a scorched earth, and the place where the red dragon once fought has now become a wasteland, while the dragon nest has been burning for hundreds of years. Hundreds of miles in Fiona Fang are covered with a thick layer of volcanic ash, which is called Pustuca Mountain by Hailansa.
The bell tower observation deck holds the railing and looks out of the city with a pale blue color. The cold south wind blows away Hathaway’s soft golden hair. She reaches for her long hair and puts a handkerchief into a refreshing ponytail with bright green eyes. Looking in the direction of Surdak’s fingers, she tries to cross five ridges to see Surdak to the mountain pass.
According to Surdak, if you want to cross that mountain pass, you can see Wall Village at the edge of the barren land at a glance.
She and Beatrice stood shoulder to shoulder, and Beatrice looked at Surdak with admiration and made no secret of her fiery eyes.
Beatrice has made clear the family situation of Surdak in her small talk. There is not only a wife but also a son in her family. Hathaway becomes a little depressed when she thinks about this, wondering if she is too impulsive this trip to Hailansa.
Seeing Beatrice’s face jumping with joy, Hathaway was filled with confusion. She couldn’t see the future clearly, and she couldn’t be as frank and casual as Beatrice. She always had to take care of her family and feel that she didn’t know how to talk about her father and get his support.
Then the three of them went to the Statue of Liberty Temple in Hailansa City, but now this resplendent temple has been completely ruined, and many gold-painted reliefs on the surrounding walls have been badly damaged. Now, an old watchman, Surdak, showed the knight badge of the guard camp and took out ten silver coins before saying that the old man would beat the door.
The courtyard of the temple is covered with bluestone tablets, but the cracks in these bluestone tablets are now full of weeds. In the courtyard, there is a thick layer of bird droppings and petals, and there is a bird’s nest at the top.
Walking into the auditorium, I found that the Statue of Liberty had actually collapsed, which meant that the free hand fell into a pile of rubble.
"The temple in Bena is better than here, and there are a few priests," said Hathaway, stopping in front of the statue.
All the valuables in the temple have been moved, even the benches in the auditorium are only a few broken legs. There used to be a mercury basin filled with holy mercury in front of the high platform, but now there is a dark silver basin with holes in it, which has long been out of sight.
"I didn’t expect the temple here to be ruined like this …" Beatrice Hathaway said.
Completely abandoned the Statue of Liberty Temple is naturally nothing to visit. The three of them just walked around and came out from the inside.
The old man, who was guarding the door from the front, smiled at Surdak with a look of "knowing you".
Time flies quickly. Surdak has been with Hathaway and Beatrice for most of the three-person magic tower in the city. This street just found a restaurant and enjoyed a dinner. Surdak is going to end today’s trip as a little bit of a host.
The magic caravan stopped in front of Hathaway and Beatrice’s temporary residence. Surdak refused to go in and sit down and bid farewell to the two women.
"Will you write to me?" Beatrice door some don’t give up to Sue tak asked.
Surdak nodded.
"Will you come to see me when you come to Bena?" Beatrice asked again
Surdak nodded again and said "yes"
Beatrice Zhan Yan smiled with a little light in her eyes, and she took a deep breath to prevent tears from flowing so easily.
Surdak rode Gubo to the horse and waved to the two women.
Then the horseshoe rang in haste, and Suldak’s figure soon disappeared into this long street.
……
After bathing, Beatrice was lying in a soft big bed in a thin nightgown. She had a sheepskin diary in front of her and a quill pen in her hand. While writing the diary, she said to Hathaway, "Hathaway, what do you think we can do to tell those people in my family to let them agree to my marrying a knight?"
Faced with Beatrice’s question, Hathaway said in ten words
"How should I know?"
She is maintaining her set of hedgehog crystal lion leather armor.
Tight leather armor needs to be coated with some grease in spring, if it is not maintained for too long, the leather will harden. Once it hardens, it will be affected when fighting, so a swordsman must first learn to maintain his leather armor.
Beatrice asked with her hands on the sheets and a face of struggle.
"Hey Hathaway, if I succeed one day, can we still be best friends?"
Hathaway seemed to have never thought about this question. Now think about it. Beatrice really wants to put everything she has. It seems that there is such a possibility. She turned to hold Beatrice’s round face and white forehead and said to her, "Of course, we will always be best friends."
Beatrice breathed a sigh of relief, and her eyes brightened a lot. She jumped up like a leopard and hugged Hathaway. Beatrice stared at Hathaway’s blue eyes and said seriously, "It’s agreed that no matter which one of you or me can get what she wants in the future, don’t be angry with each other."
"I’m not going to marry him!" Hathaway said, avoiding Beatrice’s eyes against her will
Has been cold hands from her neckline into her full chest Hathaway struggled a contrast, asked Beatrice.
"Hey Beatrice, what are you doing?"
Beatrice smiled and said, "Let me touch your heart. Don’t you dare say that sentence again!"
"Stop that now …"
Hathaway pushed Beatrice’s hand red and said in a small voice
……
From that lane, Surdak scratched his hair hard and put some unrealistic ideas out of his head.
After living in Hailanza for nearly half a year, he has a deeper understanding of this society, just like nobles and civilians separated by an invisible but insurmountable wall. Although he is a first-class knight, he only belongs to civilians with a little’ special’.
When passing through the magic union, Surdak pulled the reins of the horse and thought that he should visit a Ferdinand scholar before leaving Hailanza. When he thought of this, he turned over the vault and led the horse to the magic tower.
Give the horse to the guard at the door and report the name of Ferdinand scholar. Surdak successfully entered the magic union.
In Surdak’s impression, Ferdinand scholars rarely leave the magic tower and can be found every time they come here to look for him.
This time, Surdak visited Ferdinand scholar. He really stayed in the wizard tower and seemed to have just finished a magic experiment. He was exchanging some experiences with several magic apprentices during the experiment. The young magic apprentices around him quickly recorded the words of Ferdinand scholar, showing a face of worship.
