Chapter 21 Secrets of the Royal Family

"City of roses?"

Wharton was stunned and thought the name was quite pleasant to hear.

He looked at Emily and said with a smile, "It seems that our beautiful, gentle and knowledgeable Miss Emily has planned to tell me a poor peasant the history of the capital city?"

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Emily pretended to be magical and patted Wharton on the shoulder. Then she told him seriously, "Wharton, in my heart, you are the best young man in the world. You are not some poor country bumpkin."

Wharton was touched by Emily's words.

Although he had lived in this world for sixteen years, his soul came from New York in the twenty-first Century in his previous life. He was a careless indoors man. He also liked joking.

For example, just now, saying that he was a "poor peasant" was just a self mockery, and it was also a deliberate joke between close people.

They were beautiful girls and handsome young men, and also magic geniuses. They would be classmates in the future. It was normal for them to have a good impression of each other since they lived in the same county.

Therefore, after half a month of getting along with each other on the way, although neither of them had taken the initiative to clearly clarify the relationship between the two, they were actually very close.

That was why Wharton made such a joke with Emily.

Otherwise, if an unfamiliar outsider really dared to say that Wharton was a "poor countryman", he would immediately be punished fireball.

Oh, no, not only the fireball technique!

In the past half a month, the immortal bird Flamer and frost dragon Icerog had grown to level 3 of the infant stage.

Therefore, two magic powers were added to Wharton, which were the defensive magic (Cloak of Fire) with fire-type and the attacking magic (Ice Cone Skill）with ice.

"Cloak of Fire", you can tell from the name that it can transform the fire elements into a cloak with magic power. This was a relatively rare continuous magic.

What did it mean?

For example, when Wharton killed the leader of the black lion thief team Jack, that guy had used the fire wall which was level 2 fire-type defensive magic. The effect was to form a circular wall to protect himself.

However, within five seconds, the fire wall would disappear after the magic was cast.

As for Cloak of Fire, although it's only level 1 magic, it will always become a cloak to wear on mage! As long as the magic power didn't run out or the attack strength didn't reach the limit, it could continue to exist.

Just like a real magic cloak, it was a very rare and precious magic.

As for Ice Cone Skill, it was the magic that drove the ice elements to turn into sharp ice cones and fly out to attack the enemy long-range. It was long-range magic, and its effective attack range was fifteen meters, just like the fireball skill.

This made up for the attack range of ice wind skill, which was only three meters.

All in all, Wharton had become stronger!

Looking at Emily's serious expression, Wharton suddenly reached out his hand and gently pinched her delicate face. He laughed and said, "Well, Emily, you don't have to be so serious. I was just kidding. You can take it as a joke between close friends."

Emily frowned and thought for a while. Finally, she nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, okay! Don't say that when others are around.Only, only… only when we two are alone."

OK!

Wharton smiled.

Had the word "country bumpkin" become a secret between the two of them?

But Wharton still couldn't understand it. In a society similar to the middle ages of Europe, the nobility couldn't be too frivolous. Theycouldn't make fun of themselves in fact.

But he didn't care.

How to speak, how to joke, how to make fun of himself and others, that was his business!

For the sake of Emily, he could restrain himself a little. Others couldn't control him.

New York in the twenty-first Century was a free city!

Wharton had also developed a free soul, with a mouth that liked to tease.

After the two finished talking, Emily told Wharton the story of the Rose City and the history of the current royal family

It was said that three thousand years ago, the royal family of Lorraine Kingdom -- Plaster began to build their first castle on this plain.

There were a lot of wild roses growing on this plain, so in Plaster the patriarch of the clan used roses as the family flowers and named this place Rose Plain.

The castle built on the plain was called Rose Castle then.

After that, the Plaster family gradually developed and began to annex the surrounding noble lands through war, marriage and other ways

After about two hundred years, the Plaster family finally established a powerful kingdom, Lorraine Kingdom.

In many kingdoms on the Audley continent, Lorraine Kingdom had strong national strength and a large area.

It was more than 3000 miles from east to west.

There were also more than 2000 miles from south to north.

And the place where the Rose Fort was built at the very beginning naturally became the capital of the kingdom. After many years of development, the area became larger and the population continued to increase. Finally, it was officially named the Duroc City.

However, since the roses were the family flowers of the Plaster family, and the city was located on Rose Plain, and it was originally expanded over a thousand years by the Rose Castle, naturally, the city was known as the City of Roses.

Emily said excitedly.

"Walton, let me tell you. The walls of Duroc City are all made of a special pink rock. Not only are they extremely strong, they can also defend against human swords, catapults and other equipment. They are even immune to some magic that are not so high."

"What's even more amazing is that because this kind of rock can absorb sunlight, after dark, it will emit a faint light. Very beautiful. It is already dusk now, maybe we can see it when we reach the gate of the city wall."

Wharton nodded and listened with a smile.

At the same time, his heart is also full of expectation and curiosity, and even more heroic!

"Duroc City, I, Wharton Campbell, son of baron, come! This place will be the starting point for me to dominate the whole world one day."

In his heart, he secretly promised himself.
