Chapter 94 Ancient History
The summer sun is blazing, and the venue for the knights competition outside the city is even more scorching. A bunch of people are sitting together, and the smells are mixed. I am afraid that even the sword master will not be able to stand it. live.
Fortunately, it was windy and not too light, otherwise the game would not have been possible.
The admission ticket that Frederick got belongs to the "VIP seat". There is an awning above his head to block the sun. After entering the venue, he can find a place to sit.
The best seats are on the opposite side. Count Ansbach and his family are already sitting there. Some people are fanning themselves and others are holding cold and delicious beers.
Frederick just glanced at it. He knew that family.
Earl Ansbach looked a lot haggard. His son lost a leg in the battle the year before last and was said to have gone crazy.
His second son is sixteen or seventeen years old this year. He came back from the church last year and became the heir to the title. He seems to be in high spirits. It is said that Count Ansbach wants to ask King William for a wife with royal blood for him.
The count's youngest daughter is thirteen or fourteen years old this year and is old enough to get engaged.
Mrs. Ansbach's clothes are still as gorgeous as ever. From a distance, they look like her nickname in the circle of ladies - hydrangea.
Frederick glanced at it and stopped looking. He found a seat with Psyche and sat down, and then found that the person next to him had had a double relationship.
"Hey, hello."
"Hello."
"Would you like raisins?"
"Thank you, no."< br>
Frederick retracted his hand and grabbed a few raisins to eat.
Weisenling is not very suitable for growing grapes. The grapes grown are not sweet enough and cannot make good wine. Later, someone discovered that using them to make raisins can save the cost of winemaking and make more money than selling bad wine. .
There was still some time before the start, and Frederick started chatting with the little girl next to him: "My name is Charles, and this is my mother Elizabeth, what is your name?"
He As he spoke, he subconsciously touched his hair.
“My name is Theresia.” The little girl replied, “This is my teacher, Ms. Pontigan.”
Frederick was cheering over there: "Theresia, where is your family?"
"My family is in Hogwarts, there is a very big castle, and there is a castle next to it. A very big lake..."
"I plan to go to Constantbul to learn magic, and then go home and open a magic school in the castle..."
At this time Pousse Ke touched his head and said: "Then we make dumplings in the kitchen with the professors every year on the first day of school."
There are also dumpling-like food wrapped in thin dough here, with various fillings and dough shapes, Wei There is a popular type of "monk dumpling" in the Forest Territory and the surrounding areas. It is said that the priests of the Church of Light used to eat meat secretly during fasting. The meat filling is wrapped in two square pieces of dough. There are also "monk dumplings" in the Piast Kingdom. Jam-filled ones are also eaten during festivals.
Theresia covered her mouth and laughed after hearing this, and Pontigan, who was sitting next to her, also had a smile on his face.
“Huh?” Pontigan suddenly raised the wide brim of his black pointed witch hat, looked at Count Ansbach opposite him seriously, and whispered: “It’s actually her? "Frederick looked over curiously and saw that a female magician wearing a dark green witch hat and a robe of the same color appeared behind Count Ansbach.
He turned around and asked Pontigan: "Ms. Pontigan, is she your friend?"
Pontigan answered him with a half-smile: "I met once before. She is the inheritor of the Summoner."
Frederick was shocked after hearing this. What is the Summoner? Never heard of it.
Pontigant continued: "As of yesterday, no magician dared to come here to apply for a job. She dared to come, so she must have something to rely on."
Frederick has been paying attention to Ann. There was no news at all about the number of magicians Count Sbach had recruited. At that time, I thought it was because the confidentiality work was done well, but unexpectedly no one came to apply.
He asked curiously: "Why don't the magicians dare to come here? Are they cowards?"
Pontigant smiled at him and said: "Because Wesson With Baron Wesson and Wesson University, magicians in the surrounding areas can now go to Wesson University if they want to study. If they want to make money, they can ask Baron Wesson to guide them. It is much better than risking their lives on the battlefield."
Frederick blinked, feeling that his identity had been revealed, but he did not say anything.
He asked again: "Excuse me, what is a summoner? Can they summon gold coins?"
Puntigan glanced at Psyche and said: "A summoner is It is a very ancient profession. It is said that it existed before the Ragnarok, when the gods appeared. Summoners can use magic to go to a place called "World of Warcraft" to sign a contract with the monsters, and when they come back, they can summon the contracted monsters with themselves. Fight together."
"It's just that after Ragnarok, the subspace of Warcraft lost contact with us, and the summoners can no longer go there."
Next. Ke said in a voice that they could only hear: "The conditions for becoming a summoner are very demanding. You need to master space magic to go to that place, and you must also be an animal tamer."
"But this happened a long time ago. After Ragnarok, the locations of various spaces were all chaotic, and some were even destroyed. Summoners were unable to go to that place."
Frederick frowned. Wrinkled tightly, what the hell is this Ragnarok?
Pontigan asked Psyche seriously: "Mrs. Elizabeth, do you know the truth about Ragnarok?"
Psyche whispered: "I am also looking for the truth. , but all relevant records are only those circulated among the sisters."
Frederick frowned even more tightly. He had heard of the "Witch Sisters", but outsiders only knew that it was a girl. An organization composed of magicians with a long history, they are conducting archaeological research all day long, seemingly looking for some relics.
The ancient history that is circulated now is that each church lived according to its own teachings. The common point is that the world was created by their own gods. Later, due to various misbehaviors of human beings, black evil spirits appeared on the earth and attacked all creatures in the world. An indiscriminate massacre was carried out. In the end, mankind realized their mistake, and God's messenger came to kill the evil boss. Human beings killed the remaining evil demons with repentance, and lived a pious and happy life from then on.
Frederick had never heard of Summoners and Ragnarok. At first he thought it was a legend spread among a small group, but when he found out that Psyche was also paying attention to this matter, he felt that it would not be simple.
"Don't think too much." Psyche said to him, "It's just some ancient legends."
Frederick nodded, things are urgent, now is not the time to study history. .
At this time, the sound of horns floated over the venue, and the players participating in today's knight competition began to enter the venue.
