In Elbowell Castle, Jiang Ning sat on a recliner, drinking tea, eating fruit, reading a book, and leisurely enjoying the morning sun. The warm sunshine, shining on people, makes people feel warm all over.
Jiang Ning wore a black wizard robe with a hood, which was made of the most precious materials. The hem, cuffs, and collar were embroidered with exquisite patterns and patterns decorated with gold thread, and the back was embroidered with exquisite badges.
The butler once said that every wizard has his own mark (badge). As a wizard, even if he is just a first-level apprentice. He should also prepare his own badge, which will symbolize himself in the future.
The pattern of Jiang Ning's badge is a pattern similar to an eye. The meaning is to use this eye to see through the secrets contained in the multiverse.
Jiang Ning carefully drew several magic arrays on this specially made wizard robe. They are all practical magic arrays that Jiang Ning has just learned, namely fire prevention, waterproof, windproof, constant temperature, self-cleaning, and radiation isolation.
After nearly two years of study, Jiang Ning himself began to change. The most obvious thing was that his body began to emit "radiation" uncontrollably. This radiation was harmless to him, but for ordinary people, it would be harmful to the body over time. And as time goes by, the radiation he emits will continue to increase and strengthen. I heard from the housekeeper that some powerful wizards' residences are affected by the radiation from the wizards. After a long time, even the residence of this wizard will produce activation reactions. All kinds of weird and unimaginable things will happen.
These places are simply places of death for some weak wizards. Even some of these changes are not even known to the wizard himself. Due to the radiation of the wizards themselves, wizards often choose to live alone. Only some wizard families live in groups. For wizards without families, they generally live alone.
And now, Jiang Ning's body has begun to show this radiation reaction. Therefore, Jiang Ning must also consider the issue of living alone, considering that Narnia will be his base in the future. And he is familiar with the history or plot of the future. In the future, the Elbowwell Castle will be breached by the Telmarines, and the natives of Narnia will be driven to the forest.
Jiang Ning didn't know if he would come back hundreds of years later after leaving. Therefore, it was inevitable to build a separate residence. And this residence must be a hidden fortress manor model.
So, as Jiang Ning's order was conveyed. Countless people were mobilized to build a new palace for their wizard king to live in. And many people also knew about these obscure changes in Jiang Ning. However, this did not prevent the people from loving Jiang Ning. In addition,
Peter and his friends didn't understand the construction of a castle fortress-style palace. Therefore, they even held a meeting to discuss it together.
...
"Ning, we don't understand why we have to build a separate palace. And it's a fortress-style palace. Narnia is very safe now. There are no witches and no wars. There is no need to mobilize people to build such a huge building." Peter questioned.
Although Susan, Lucy, and Edmund didn't say anything, it was obvious that they thought so too. Including some ministers, there were doubts about this. However, because of Jiang Ning's reputation, they didn't dare to ask.
Jiang Ning was silent for a moment and said, "My body has changed and I cannot live with ordinary people. Therefore, it is necessary to build a separate residence. As for why it is in the form of a fortress, I can only say that if you encounter danger in the future, you should retreat to the fortress. Wait for my return quietly!"
Jiang Ning's words shocked Peter and the others. What does this mean? Why do you say that?
They wanted to ask something, but Jiang Ning did not intend to continue. Therefore, after issuing the order to build a fortress-style palace, he returned to the garden to continue studying witchcraft.
And Jiang Ning's words came true later. After the five kings left. A group of pirates accidentally came to the Narnia world and multiplied in Narnia. Hundreds of years passed. The descendants of this group of pirates grew and began to attack the Narnians, driving them into the forest. And these Narnians, remembering the legendary king's explanation, retreated to the fortress built by the king that year, waiting for the return of the five kings.
The fortress that sheltered them was named "Erinin Castle", which means "the shelter of the wizard king"
. Jiang Ning also became a legend among the Narnians because of this "prophecy".
...
On the table next to him, there was the magic wand of the witch Janetis. According to the housekeeper, this magic wand was made of very rare metals and magic materials, but the wizard himself did not need a magic wand very much. During the apprenticeship stage, this magic wand would increase the power of witchcraft. However, it was limited to ice. In this way, this magic wand seemed very limited. Jiang Ning was a little dissatisfied, so he could only try to study alchemy to see if he could improve this magic wand.
After studying for a while, Jiang Ning felt the charm of wizards more and more. This kind of accepting new things and knowledge every moment, constantly enriching oneself, and even being able to clearly feel that one is constantly getting stronger, this feeling is too charming.
Therefore, after searching for some information, Jiang Ning had a general idea of how to improve this magic wand, but he still lacked some materials. When all these things were collected, they were ready to improve the wand.
...
Unknowingly, ten years had passed.
During these ten years, Jiang Ning had traveled almost all of Narnia's land, except for the sea. He had traveled almost everywhere else. In the process of exploring the land of Narnia, Jiang Ning's foundation began to grow. The radiation emitted from his body became more and more intense. As a result, he rarely appeared in front of people. Only when there were some major matters did people go to him for consultation. Generally, Jiang Ning lived alone.
Now, after ten years of accumulation, his wizard level has already entered the realm of a second-level wizard, and he can even step into the realm of a third-level wizard at any time. However, Jiang Ning gave up. It was not very good for him to advance too early. Only by constantly accumulating his foundation can he help himself go further. Therefore, Jiang Ning consciously accumulated his foundation, resulting in his current knowledge reserves, even if they were not as good as those of formal wizards, were not far behind. At least
, in terms of the most basic knowledge reserves, formal wizards may not be as good as Jiang Ning.
...
Now, Jiang Ning ordered people to build a manor for him to live in outside the Elbower Castle. The palace he ordered to be built has not been completed yet because of the huge construction. The main body of the palace is in a hollowed-out mountain.
It is integrated with the mountain, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Moreover, Jiang Ning learned a little about architecture in his spare time, so he designed the architectural drawings of the fortress palace himself. It is roughly divided into three parts. The first part is the outer city, which is mainly for residents and the army to live in. A large number of fortifications have been built here. There are also bastions. The second part is for officials, various workshops, granaries and sources of drinking water. The third part, of course, is the palace, which is dedicated to Jiang Ning alone.
In order to ensure quality, Jiang Ning did not ask people to rush the construction period. Therefore, although the palace was built slowly, it was unusually strong.
...
That afternoon, Jiang Ning finished his experiment and came to the garden to trim the flowers and plants. Suddenly, Oris came.
In ten years, Oris has also grown old and is no longer as strong as he was in the past. However, the momentum on his body has not diminished at all.
"Your Majesty!"
Oris came to Jiang Ning and saluted with his chest.
"Get up, Oris!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Jiang Ning put down the kettle in his hand, walked to the table and sat down, poured a cup of scented tea for himself and Oris, took a sip: "Tell me, Oris! Why did you come to me in such a hurry? What happened?"
Oris took a sip of tea and organized his thoughts: "Your Majesty, Philip just reported. King Peter (Edmund's warhorse), King Edmund, and Queen Susan and Lucy all disappeared suddenly."
Jiang Ning paused slightly as he held the tea and thought of the answer.
He pondered for a moment and said, "Don't worry, Oris. The four of them just went back to their own world. Don't worry about them. Sooner or later, they will come back. Now, ask Philip to take me to the place where the four of them disappeared. Perhaps, I will be away for a while. You give orders, no matter how long I am away, let everyone not panic. I will come back here, and if I encounter danger in the future, I will retreat to the newly built palace. That place is hidden and easy to defend. Therefore, Oris, you are responsible for supervising this project, and it must be repaired with quality and quantity. I will give you another ten years to build this castle!"
"Your Majesty..." Oris wanted to say something, but Jiang Ning's words always gave him a bad premonition. He wanted to ask in detail, but Jiang Ning would not tell him.
Jiang Ning waved his hand and asked Oris to bring Philip.
Give me some recommendation votes or something to boost my morale! ! !
