Chapter 359: Revisiting the Old Place
The City Lord's Mansion in Peter City suddenly became lively today after being silent for nearly half a year.
Half a year ago, the city lord's eldest son unfortunately died in a conflict with the leader next door. The old city lord was heartbroken and even canceled the birthday party that was supposed to be held.
But today there were suddenly lights and colorful decorations, which made people wonder if one of the city lord's wives had a big belly again.
In the Peterte City Lord's Mansion, Thain met this somewhat familiar fat City Lord.
After not seeing each other for more than twenty years, Thain was still as young and handsome as before, but the Peterte City Lord in front of him was obviously much older.
Lord Peter is still very fat, but his fatness now is a little different from that in the past.
In the past, this fat city lord gave people the impression of being extremely mellow.
But now, wearing a luxurious noble robe, he feels baggy.
Thain did not come here specifically to see the fat city lord, but Peter City happened to be on his route south, so he just stopped by to take a look.
"Where's Frank, why haven't you seen him?" Thain asked casually.
"Frank passed away seven years ago, but his family is still here and living well now. Do you need me to call them over?" Fatty City Lord asked respectfully.
In his early years, Thain discovered that the fat city lord was very honest.
Sure enough, although old Frank is dead, this love is still there.
With the care of the Fatty City Lord, the descendants of his family should be doing well, but I don't know if any new magic apprentices will be born.
Thane shook his head. He was not interested in meeting ordinary humans he didn't know.
In addition to Frank Sr., Thain also asked about several other names or nicknames.
Thain has a very good memory. He asked about several magic apprentices he had contact with back then. At that time, these magic apprentices got together and held a trade fair.
Facing Thain's questions, Fatty City Lord answered some of them, while others he didn't even know about.
After all, magicians and noble city lords like him live in different circles.
But the fat city lord mentioned Mary, the mid-level apprentice who had a happy night with Thain.
Mary went south together with three other apprentices from nearby areas.
The reason why the Fat City Lord knew about this was because before Mary left, she also invited Frank to go with them, but Old Frank refused.
Not everyone has the idea of going to the South to make a living. Old Frank belongs to the older category, and he eventually buried his bones in his hometown.
"Twenty-eight years have passed by." Thain sighed.
Twenty-eight years ago, Thane came to Peter City as a senior magic apprentice.
Today, twenty-eight years later, when he returned here, his life had changed.
…
Thain only stayed in Peterte City for half a day. Before leaving, he gave the Fatty City Lord a disposable flame arrow.
This should be the last meeting between Thain and the fat city lord. This flaming arrow was a gift from him to the fat city lord. After being stimulated, it can explode with power comparable to that of a quasi-level spell.
Thane also heard about the death of his eldest son, a situation that was all too common in the Underdark.
As a chaotic place at the junction of several major forces, the Dark Territory seems to have been a no-care zone since ancient times, and there is no complete order established here.
Killing and death are the norm in this vast area of the Underdark.
Different from the border wars that broke out in the Lycian Alliance and other places, there was actually the promotion of the Knights Hall or the powerful people above the first level behind it.
The chaos here in the Underdark is real chaos. No one is promoting it, and no one will care about it.
How long the chaos here will last, no one knows.
In short, Thain really didn't see it on the magic map. There was no knight's hall or holy tower nearby.
The Holy Tower closest to the Dark Territory is the Blue Source Holy Tower in the north.
As for the rumored rich southern coast of the Wizarding World, it is still quite a long way away.
No wonder even the magic apprentices who have some extraordinary powers are not absolutely sure of getting there successfully.
It is difficult for magic apprentices to reach the southern coast of the wizarding world, but for a first-level magician like Thain, it is not a problem.
According to the description on the magic map, Thain could reach the area of influence on the south coast of the Wizarding World in almost three months at full speed.
After leaving the city of Peterte and flying for about half a month, Thain landed on an unremarkable hillside.
At this time, the terrain around Thain was mostly plains.
It's just that there are very few humans in the wizarding world living nearby, and not many magical beasts.
There were only some ordinary animals and birds fetching water from the river not far down the hillside.
On the top of this unattractive hillside, Thain found the entrance to a low and deep cave.
It was estimated that no one would be interested in exploring such a boring cave, so Thain lingered at the entrance of the cave for a while, and finally jumped into it.
In his memory, Thain was confused about the route in the cave because he was walking blindly at that time.
After wandering around the cave for several days, Thain only found a solidified lava passage opening.
This underground passage blocked by lava rock is probably one of the passages that spewed out when the underground magma erupted. It may not be the one that Thain took because he couldn't see any familiar landmarks.
Although a first-level magician has unimaginable power compared to ordinary people.
But with his ability, he still couldn't dig out the underground rocks below, not to mention digging out the city of Mosobra that had been engulfed by magma.
After staying at the entrance of the magma rock tunnel for a long time, Sean sighed and left.
Before leaving, Sean dug some low-level blue moss from the corner of the tunnel as a souvenir.
…
After wandering in the old place for several days, Sean continued to go south.
This time, Sean did not stop on the way, and even flew several times faster than before.
It normally took three months to reach the south coast of the wizard world, but Sean finally took only two months to reach a large human city on the south coast called "Jasmine City".
The south coast of the wizard world is indeed very different from the human cities where Sean lived before.
Just the name of the city is completely different from the human cities north of the Underdark.
Human cities in the north of the Underdark often like to be named after the surnames of the nobles in the territory.
The reason why Jasmine City got this name is because in the northeastern area of this human city, there is a "Qingling Jasmine Field" that is famous in the nearby area.
Qingling Jasmine is a low-level material planted by humans. Not only can it be used by magicians, but even knights like to soak it in water and drink it. It is a high-end product that only the nobles in the nearby area can enjoy.
Although Jasmine City is already part of the southern coast of the wizarding world, you can't see the sea here. It is still an inland area.
The southern coast of the wizarding world is more vast than people imagine. If you continue to move south from Jasmine City, Sean will have to fly for almost two months before he can see the real sea.
That is the endless South Sea of the wizarding world.
