Hill Mage 1

　　"Nothing major."

　　Merlin thought about it, but still think that for the time being will not say this matter, old Wilson and others, at this time is still immersed in the excitement of just settled, there is no need to say this matter to let them worry.

　　"No problem is good."

　　Old Wilson was visibly relieved.

　　"But for the next few days, I'll likely be staying in Count Selin's castle to take care of the Count's troubles."

　　After Merlin and old Wilson explained, they returned to the room they had just cleaned out.

　　Early in the morning, Merlin woke up, his body, as always, appeared sweat stains, through the past few days of continuous practice on the relief of the posture, Merlin can already feel the physical quality in a little bit of improvement.

　　Although it is not very obvious, it is indeed improving. At this rate, perhaps if he waits a few more months, his physical quality will be comparable to that of a second level elemental swordsman.

　　Changed clothes, Merlin saw old Wilson is still resting, must be a long time since the long journey, so old Wilson is really too tired, now settle down, the heart relaxed, can really rest like. So Merlin also did not bother old Wilson, only to explain with the Praetorian commander, and then alone towards the castle of Earl Selin.

　　The guards outside the castle had obviously been ordered, so when they saw Merlin, they respectfully opened the iron fence and let Merlin in. In the castle interior, like yesterday's kind of "surveillance" gaze, still exists, but has been much less, hidden in the shadows of the guards, has obviously identified with Merlin's identity.

　　In the hall, Cook is missing, the young girl Shelley is not there, the Earl of Salem is sitting in front of the fireplace, and opposite the Earl of Salem, there is an old man in black robes sitting.

　　Merlin habitually with spiritual power, in the whole hall scouted up, especially the Earl of Salem as well as the black-robed old man, with spiritual power can clearly see the black-robed old man's face fine wrinkles, like old bark, although the face is very rosy, but also can not hide his old age.

　　"Didn't anyone ever tell you that it's rude to casually use your mental energy to check in on your body?"

　　Suddenly, a hoarse voice rang out.

　　Merlin heart, the black-robed old man turned around, its ears are hanging a large black iron ring, withered hands with white skin, but there are a few fingers, but a scorched black color.

　　Just now it was the old man in black robes talking, the other party is obviously also a spell caster, otherwise, Merlin's spiritual power would not have been discovered.

　　"Mage Merlin, let me introduce to you, this is Mage Hill!"

　　Seeing that Merlin had arrived, Count Selin stood up and introduced the black-robed old man to Merlin: "Mage Hill participated in the brutal 'Slaughterhouse' war against the Light Kingdom more than a decade ago!"

　　"Slaughterhouse?"

　　Merlin frowned, "Slaughterhouse" this war is too famous, not because it plays a key role, but because this war is too brutal, so brutal that both sides did not anticipate.

　　At that time, both the Light Kingdom and the Black Moon Kingdom, both in the "Slaughterhouse" war, put millions of troops, the Church's mages, the Black Moon Kingdom's spellcasters, do not know how many fell, even those who can destroy a military fortress alone powerful existence, also occasionally fell, to see the cruelty of this war.

　　Can survive the "slaughterhouse", even an ordinary knight, are the elite of the elite, like old Wilson, from the "slaughterhouse" back, will be directly awarded a noble title, and its training of heavy armor knights, is powerful beyond compare.

　　At that time, the old Wilson was just an ordinary knight, and the black-robed old man in front of him, when the identity of the caster, participated in the "Slaughterhouse" war, to survive, there must be its excesses.

　　Therefore, even if Merlin did not feel any terrifying aura in the black-robed old man's body, but also highly alert, not daring to underestimate the black-robed old man.

　　"Hey, hey, so what if it's a 'slaughterhouse'? Nowadays, I'm still not a walking old man?"

　　The black-robed old man, there is a kind of deep despondency in his tone, his body, there must also be many untold stories.

　　Not long after, from outside the hall came in the stout Cook.

　　Cook looked at Merlin and the black-robed old man, then said in a deep voice: "Father, I've already set everything up, as long as Merrilon dares to come, he will definitely let him have no return!"

　　Cook's face showed a very confident expression.

　　"Fifteen rank four elemental swordsmen! Sixty-eight third level elemental swordsmen, hundreds of second level elemental swordsmen, plus specially made heavy crossbows and arrows, tsk, the Count is really generous!"

　　The black-robed old man Hill Mage suddenly spoke, and everyone's face changed slightly, especially Cook, whose gaze stared straight at Hill Mage, his body radiated a huge aura.

　　If not for Count Selin here, I'm afraid Cook would have struck out at the old man in black robes.

　　And Merlin is also amazed uncertainty, in awe of the Earl of Salem has such a huge power at the same time, more importance to the old man in black robes in front of him.

　　Just now Merlin's spiritual power sweep to the old man in black robes, just feel the old man in black robes, should also be the entry-level spell casters, the specific strength of do not know, after all, have not seen the old man in black robes strike.

　　But the black-robed old man's spiritual power, actually reached such a terrifying point, can envelop the entire castle, even Cook's layout, he knows it like the back of his hand.

　　Such a huge spiritual power, even beyond the general level one caster, with such a huge spiritual power, can be promoted to become a level one caster, but do not know what is the reason, so the old man in black robes did not become a level one caster.

　　Earl Selin is also a bit embarrassed, originally very secret arrangement, but now the old man in black robes bite out, but he quickly regained his calm, a smile on his face, to the old man in black robes softly asked: "Hill mage, is there something wrong with such an arrangement?"

　　The black-robed old man glanced at Cook indifferently, as if not at all affected by Cook's fierce breath, his tone was cold, and he said in a deep voice: "There is naturally no problem with such an arrangement, but to deal with Merilon, I'm afraid it's not that easy."

　　"Oh? Mage Shire knows about Merilon?"

　　Earl Cailin's eyes lit up, hurriedly asked, he currently also spied Merrilon is a spell caster, for Merrilon other information, Earl Cailin is not very clear.

　　Not only Count Selin, but also Merlin desperately wanted to know more about Merilon, otherwise, it was very unfavorable to not even have a clear picture of the enemy.
