The journey to Dalaran was not boring. In two days and one night, I listened to at least three versions of the love story between King Terenas and a noble lady, and each version was more exciting than the last.
I listened to the debate for at least half a day about whether the new King Varian of Stormwind City was his mother's illegitimate son. From this, I learned that King Varian was a shy young man with black hair, but his My father has golden hair.
I also clearly learned that the Ms. Miller sitting on my right has a miller husband and a nephew who is an alchemy apprentice in Dalaran. Her nephew also won the Future Time and Space Medal.
"My dear nephew often invites me to Dalaran!" She puffed out her magnificent chest with great pride and looked at the eyes of the others on the carriage with disdain. "He will become a particularly outstanding alchemist. He will definitely If we are canonized as nobles, then we will all become rich and even have titles!"
I once asked about the future time and space medal, and what I received was a sarcastic curl from Mrs. Miller, "That's a medal awarded by King Terenas himself, to the children with the most magical talents! Hard work is not enough. You have to be talented! Being talented is not enough, you have to be extremely talented!" As she said that, she glanced at me up and down with her mean eyes, as if she was mocking me for not having any talent.
"Oh," I felt indignant, so I raised the corner of my mouth maliciously, "I really envy your nephew. Can I know your nephew's name? Or, can I find out who he studied under? Archmage?"
"Uh...yes..."
"The archmages I've heard of include Antonidas, Crassus, and Kael'thas. Which one did he study under? Or is it someone else I haven't heard of? Oh, your nephew is so good, how could it be possible? Study under Wu Ming? Speaking of which, who is your nephew's student? Can I ask for an autograph of those archmages through your nephew? I don't have any magic talent, but I love those archmages very much, but I'll never see them again in my life! Oh, or are they all rushing to get your nephew? Can I collect all the signatures? That's really my luck!"
My words made everyone around me laugh, and made Ms. Miller's face turn red and blue. Finally, she glared at me, murmured a few words, and lowered her head.
ah! I just feel relieved!

"Everyone! Look! Dalaran!" At that moment, the coachman shouted.
At this moment, it was already dark, and the dense woods blocked the starlight. Only the dim glass lamp hanging beside the carriage illuminated the gravel road ahead. However, suddenly, the dark woods were left behind by the carriage.
For a moment, I just felt that my eyes were lit up by the light of magic!
Dalaran is a huge and great city. It is shrouded in a hemispherical veil-like barrier, with purple-red stars shining on the barrier, lighting up half of the night sky.
I looked around, but couldn't see the edge of the barrier. I raised my head desperately, but couldn't see the dome of the barrier!
God, how old is she? !
"Oh! Our welcome gift is here! Everyone is seated!" The coachman waved his whip boldly, and suddenly, the carriage seemed to have stepped on the ice and began to slide quickly.
Suddenly, the carriage shook, and the things around it seemed to have traveled through time and space, flashing by the corner of the eye. Even the light of those magic street lamps pulled out afterimages!
"Wow!!" I hugged the armrest of the accelerating carriage and screamed, "What's going on?!"
Mrs. Miller covered her mouth and smiled, "What an ignorant country girl."
"Don't be afraid, child, this is magic airflow." Mrs. Haas, who was sitting opposite me, explained with a smile. As far as I know, the Haas family are civilians from Tarren Mill. Mr. Haas and his wife are going to Dalaran. Look at their kids.
"This is the special treatment given to travelers in Dalaran at night." Mrs. Haas added with a smile.
"But so soon..." I hugged the armrest tightly and turned around to shout to her, but suddenly, I stopped because I found that Mrs. Haas had been holding the cloth bag in her hand and sitting steadily, but Occasionally, the gray hair on the temples will flutter with the cool night breeze. She turned her head and looked at Mrs. Miller beside her. She was leaning on the backrest leisurely, her fingertips tapping lightly on the armrest.
what happened?
According to common sense, shouldn't she be thrown off by such a sudden acceleration of the carriage?
Mr. Haas looked at me with a smile and encouraged, "Try it."
I slowly let go of my hand, and sure enough, except for some bumps, I couldn't feel the flow of the strong wind at all.
"Oh my God..." I stood up slowly and incredibly. I was able to stand firmly on the speeding carriage. I couldn't help but jump twice. The flow of air on my cheeks was so gentle, just like a spring day. There was a trickle of water inside, "Oh! This is simply..."
"It's a miracle, isn't it?" Haas responded with a smile, "Is this your first time coming to Dalaran, little girl?"
"That's true, Mr. Haas."
"Then your little boyfriend should really come with you. He can at least protect you."
Well?
I couldn't help but be stunned, "My little boyfriend?" I raised my head and thought for a moment, and suddenly remembered the "Bird's Nest". The big man was the only person in the manor who came to see me off. At that time, he kept chasing the carriage and insisted on it. He gave me a cloth bag, and then, when the carriage finally got rid of him, his eyes were red. He waved desperately from behind the carriage and shouted, "Messiah! Messiah! Don't forget I!"
Thinking of that, I sighed softly, and my eyes felt a little sour unconsciously, "...Sir, he is just a friend of mine."
Mrs. Haas glanced at Mr. Haas angrily, then stretched out her hand to touch the back of my hand comfortingly, "So, do you know where to spend the night? My child?"
"Oh, you underestimate me." I exhaled the sour breath in my chest, "I know that there is an Adventurer's House Hotel in the lower city of Dalaran, and if you can't find it, just walk along the street. Going around in circles, Dalaran is a ring-shaped city! Before I set off, I had a guide."
"No, no, don't go to the territory of those green dwarves." Mrs. Haas shook her index finger mysteriously.
"That's right, little girl," Mr. Haas said with a smile, "There is a Hero Hotel in the Alchemy District. It has good quality and low prices, but the food is a bit unpalatable."
I keenly grasped the key point of that sentence, "Very cheap?"
Mrs. Haas smiled and nodded, "Besides, it's very neat and safe."

The room I booked was on the third floor of the Hero Hotel. Through the colorful glass, I could see the shining alchemy circle in the back block, smell the faint smell of potion in the air, and even often feel the magic. fluctuations.
This is indeed a paradise for magicians. Most of those hurriedly walking in the streets are magicians holding a thick magic book or wearing robes inlaid with mithril threads. They are often angry. They stopped panting, and then silently recited a strange spell. Then, their figures would disappear and then appear more than ten yards away! oh! Simply amazing!
At that moment, there was a sound of opening the door, "Lord Knight! How do you feel?" It was the voice of a boy, just like Lester, who was in the period of voice change, and his voice was not pleasant.
He seemed to be asking his next-door neighbor.
The soundproofing is terrible.
I couldn't help but think about it, but the next moment, I suddenly felt grateful for the poor sound insulation here.
"Much better, thank you." I heard another voice reply. The voice was gentle and young, with the loud accent typical of northerners. I couldn't help but be stunned, and the next second, I immediately jumped down from the chair by the window, quickly slipped to the door, and opened the door to the room.
Around the corner, in another room, I suddenly saw the figure that made my heart beat wildly.
He was pressing his shoulders and preparing to stand up from the wooden table.
Almost at the same moment, he also looked towards me, our eyes met, and immediately, I saw a surprised, but as bright as the sun, smile on his handsome but pale face.
"Mr. Selling!"
"Miss Messiah!"
"Why are you here?!" we said in unison.
"I told you I would come to you, it won't take long!" For a moment, I almost wanted to rush over happily, but the person at the door blocked my way.
"Uh... who are you?" Unexpectedly, the person spoke. At this time, I was a little boy of eleven or twelve years old, a head shorter than me. He had brown hair and eyes, and he was careful in his hands. He was holding several bottles of red potion, and it seemed that he was going to deliver them to Selin.
At this moment, he was looking up at me, his eyes bright.
I didn't want to stand outside reservedly at all, so I reached out and took away his potion, and squeezed past him, "Guess what."
The boy opened his clever eyes and suddenly realized, "Ouch! I think I know who you are! Have a good time! Sir Knight! Miss!" As he said that, he blinked at us and quickly closed it for us. door.
At that moment, I almost laughed out loud, and Selin's face turned slightly red as expected.
"...Oh, Miss Messiah, this kind of joke..." He spread his hands helplessly, and swept a strand of silver hair on his forehead helplessly, "...Maybe, Lafayette will meet tomorrow Everyone knows what is said..."
"Then do you want them to know?"
"Of course I am, ah! I mean it's...not good for you."
I smiled and took a few steps to jump to his side. He immediately took the potion and thoughtfully pulled out a chair for me.
"Please take a seat, miss."
At this moment, Selin was not wearing armor. He only had a frayed white linen shirt. The shirt was a little too small and there were two patches. The clothes were tightly stretched around his body, and the thin fabric was clearly outlined. He took out the bandage on his shoulder.
"Does your wound still hurt?"
He smiled at me and poured me a glass of water, "Thank you Holy Light, thank you, I'm much better."
I like his smile, it is very warm. When the smile extends into his green eyes, I always feel that those warm waves are about to ripple out of his eyes, "But your face is still very pale, and so are your lips."
He smiled again, raised his hand, as if he wanted to touch my hair, but halfway out, he took it back, "Well, I'm really fine, it doesn't hurt at all." As he said that, he did it to me. A strong gesture.
I couldn't help but laugh out loud, "But, why are you here?" I raised my head and asked him, "Let me think about it, if you followed the convoy, shouldn't you have just arrived at the King's City of Lordaeron? I've heard that it takes many days to get to the royal city from our manor! Do you have wings? Can you fly?"
He was stunned for a moment, then sighed slightly, "Actually, I didn't go to the Royal City."
"Why?"
"Because...my boss asked someone to come and explain the death knight matters to me, and asked me to deal with some simple things here first, and then go back after finishing them."
I stared at him, and his pupils reflected the dancing light of the magic candle. Those bright lights completely exposed the loss in his eyes. I felt like I could guess the reason.
"He left you here on purpose, right?!" I clenched my right fist, filled with indignation, "Because you once broke through him and, and..." At that point, I suddenly stopped, and my cheeks suddenly turned red. hot.
Oh my God! What do I want to say? !
"Miss Messiah!" Fortunately, Selin interrupted me in shock, and his face turned even redder. "Please forget those dirty things, okay?" His eyes flickered, He looked at a loss and didn't dare to look at me.
oh! In fact, I didn't dare to look at him, but he seemed much more nervous than me.
I glanced at him secretly, and he was biting his lip, focusing his eyes on the bright magic candle. He held the potion in his hand tightly, and his clean and slender fingers were white and trembling slightly. That look made me feel like I was going to laugh out loud, oh, this paladin is much simpler than everyone I know, at least on the surface!
There was silence.
"Okay, okay! I've already forgotten! Good night, Selin!" I stood up with a chuckle and walked out quickly.
"Good night, Miss Messiah!" He said goodbye to me immediately as if he was being pardoned.
"Oh! That's right!" Suddenly, I leaned half of my body back from the door.
His bright eyes immediately moved from the potion to my face in a panic, "What's wrong? Miss?"
"I'll be here tomorrow too. Can I help you with your errands? It's been agreed happily! You must wait for me tomorrow, otherwise, I will go find the alchemist apprentice. I remember his name is... La Faye!”
