Chapter 606 Mina’s Learning Journey [Happy Chinese New Year]

“It’s definitely worth joining us.”

Mina was a little panicked by the other party’s enthusiasm.

“Our brother Freyr is sick.” She gestured to the little guy on her back, “We want a bottle of potion to treat his illness. We can pay any amount. If we don’t have money, we can work to pay it back.”

“Sick? This is a big deal!” The other person stretched out his hand, “Give me the child.”

“what?”

“You guys are running too slowly. I can run faster if I carry you on my back.”

Then the other party shook his head again, “No, it’s too bumpy, wait a minute.”

Not long after, a figure flew in the sky.

It was a figure driving a flying magical beast pulling a carriage. The other person was wearing armor that emitted magical light, and the weapon on his waist flickered with his breathing.

The aura on his body is more terrifying than the man in front of him, especially the flying monster. If I am not mistaken, it should be a flying dragon!
“The little flying car is coming~”

The flying dragon landed, stirring up a gust of sand.

“Pfft, can you please learn how to drive?”

“You know shit. The landing of a flying dragon must be exaggerated. Otherwise, how will others know that I am riding a flying dragon?”

“Hey, what you said makes sense.”

The two argued for a few words and then quickly turned their attention to Flair.

“Send them back for treatment as soon as possible!”

Mina and Meier were taken onto the carriage pulled by a flying dragon without knowing what was going on.

The terrifying and powerful flying dragon climbed on the ground on all fours, staggering forward, flapping its wings while pushing off the ground with its feet, and riding the strong wind, its body flew up.

Spreading their wings and flying, their sight quickly rose higher and lower, and the dense forest became tiny when they looked down. Their sight even went completely beyond the forest and saw farther away.

There weren’t any strong winds because they used a magic barrier to keep the wind out.

This is bound to be a strange experience.

They landed safely at Redforge.

“I’ll give you the fare later. I’ll save the person first.”

“Okay, I’ll go take the order.”

After the flying dragon carriage dropped them off, it immediately flew away.

Without having time to look at the legendary Redforge, Mina immediately followed when she noticed that Forier was being held by the man and running quickly forward.

They came to a potion shop.

What happened next left Mina speechless, as she watched those powerful men who were supposed to be high and mighty fight for Flair’s life, using all kinds of precious potions without caring about the cost.

Until finally a witch with rabbit teeth was invited.

She must be someone important, because Mina found that everyone respected the Rabbit Tooth Witch.

“This should be an infectious disease.” The Rabbit Tooth Witch said, “Even if he is rescued, his body will be very weak.”

“Can you please save Flair? He is our family.” Mina asked tentatively.

She knew that her question was a little unreasonable. The three of them were worthless, and their combined lives were not as valuable as one of the herbs in the potion she had just brewed.

“Of course.” The Rabbit Tooth Witch pointed to the man who brought Mina and the other two with him, “But he will help you.”

“Give me a list, please, Miss Micko.”

A piece of parchment flew over, and a quill flew over, writing and drawing on the parchment. When the pen stopped, the parchment fell into the man’s hands.

“What a coincidence! I just happen to have all these ingredients. When can it be cooked?”

“Now.”

The potion flew out of the man’s hand and flew into the crucible under the command of the Rabbit Tooth Witch. The spoon stirred automatically, the crucible boiled, and the fragrance of the potion filled the air.

Everything seemed like a dream, and when it was over, the potion was delivered to Mina.

“Feed him to drink.”

“Yes.” Mina shuddered, immediately caught the potion bottle, and carefully fed it into Flair’s mouth.

Flair, who had been drowsy, had his fever subside and the unhealthy blush on his face disappeared.

“Flare!” She hugged him in surprise, her eyes red.

“How can I thank you?” She looked at the man who brought her to Redforge, thinking about how to repay him.

The other party shook his head indifferently: “Just promise me to join Redforge Castle.”

“It’s that simple?”

It would be a great thing if Redhearth was really willing to accept them. They would be fools to refuse.

“Come on, follow me to go through the formalities.”

Mina carried Flair, who had just recovered from a serious illness, on her back, but after walking not far, Flair said that he had recovered and could walk by himself.

“What a powerful potion.” Mina exclaimed.

“It must be the person who brews the potion who is good at it.” The man walking in front said, “Miss Miko is the chief pharmacist. It is said that she can brew potions.”

“Wait, are you saying that the witch lady is a legendary pharmacist?”

Mi Ke just thought it was a fantasy.

Such a big shot actually cooked potions for them personally.

But if we say they have ulterior motives, the cost they have paid is far more than they deserve, a price they cannot pay even if they die hundreds of times.

With this in mind, Mina and the other two held hands and came to the Government Hall of Redhearth.

There sits a row of steel robots, and at the heart position you can see an energy pump beating as the gears turn.

“The recommender is Sweet Mushroom, and the recommended ones are these three.” The man pointed at Mina and the other two beside him.

The three of them stood up straight.

“Well, you need to answer some questions for me,” the robot said, “You can leave now, Sweet Mushroom.”

Sweet Mushroom bowed his head: “Yes, sir.”

After the other party left, the three became even more nervous.

As if sensing their emotions, the robot asked, “Can anyone answer some of my questions?”

“Me.” Mina took the initiative and it could only be her at this time.

“Where were you before? Did Sweet Mushroom bring you back by force? Did he use violence to force you to join Redforge?”

“what?”

Mina found that she suddenly couldn’t understand the common language. There were no long or difficult sentences, and she should have been able to hear each sentence clearly, but when put together, she couldn’t understand it.

“We used to live in a small settlement in the woods in the north, next to a pond. Freir fell ill, so we asked him for help. He didn’t threaten us. We joined Redhearth for resources.” She was a little incoherent.

Fortunately, the answer was not too bad.

The robot wrote and drew, then asked: “Since you have voluntarily joined Redforge, you must abide by the rules of Redforge.”

Still here!

Mina took a deep breath and straightened her chest: “Okay, we do.”

No matter how strict the rules are.

“First, everyone only has the most basic rations per month, which are 10 kilograms of grain and 10 kilograms of meat. You can get them by presenting your badge.” “Ah?” Mina swallowed.

She thought she was hallucinating.

“You heard me right.” The robot stressed, “You can only get so much. If you want more, you must complete some work.”

That’s enough, it’s more than enough. With so much food, she is willing to do it no matter how hard or tiring it is.

“Second, you must study, be screened, and receive training, and if you can pass the test well you will get more rewards.”

“What if I don’t get good grades?” Mina couldn’t help but ask.

“Do what you can.” The robot stressed again, “It’s better not to do this. Try to do better. Otherwise, you can only eat grain and meat every month without enjoying more.”

Not pitiful at all!
I wish there would be more of these tormenting days.

“Is it okay for us not to work and just study?” Mina asked.

“If you can keep learning, yes.” The robot nodded. “The better you learn, the more you will get. These rewards come from the great lord Lind Alman.”

Mina wanted to ask if the lord of Redhearth Castle shouldn’t be the Baron Redhearth. She had also heard about the horrific siege, but the robot’s next question interrupted her thoughts.

After a long interrogation, they were arranged to receive temporary identity cards and line up to receive food at the Red Furnace Fort dining center.

This is a large open-air stove. You can smell the rich aroma of meat as you approach it.

Flair was already drooling with greed, and Meyer’s eyes were wide open. Mina took the two of them over, but the difficulties they had imagined did not occur. They were given large pieces of meat, but the rice was much less in comparison.

“Eat more vegetables and less rice.” This is what the cook said when serving the food.

The three followed the team to a table and sat down. Then, their appetite completely took over them and they lowered their heads to eat.

The tender meat juice exploded on the tip of the tongue, and more was squeezed out with every collision of teeth. Then, after being swallowed in the throat, it went into the stomach whole. The three of them kept eating until their stomachs were heavy, and only then did they come to their senses.

Holding their stomachs, they couldn’t help but sigh.

“It’s like a dream life.”

“If we had known that Redforge would be like this, we should have come earlier.”

“Uh-huh!”

The three reached a consensus.

After dinner, they continued with the procedures they had not completed, were assigned accommodation, and underwent preliminary screening.

It is necessary to distinguish between those who can read and those who cannot.

Mina and Miles can read, but Freir is too young to understand, so they have to be separated. However, the administrator who manages the assignment is very easy to talk to and agrees that they can live together but only separately during the day.

Everyone was crowded into the castle house, with six people crammed into each room, including three more people besides them.

Everyone spent the first day in anxiety.

The next day, Mina and Miles sent Freir to study, where illiterate people gathered, some of whom were very old, and some of whom were about the same age as Freir.

Then they go to study.

Three days passed, and Mina gradually got used to the current pace of life.

She was learning characters, testing her talents, and taking some special courses, including getting to know the Lord they now served, Linde Arman.

A week later, the first exam came.

The tenacity that Mina developed during her apocalyptic life allowed her to improve rapidly in her studies, and as expected, she became the top student in the exam. However, Meier was a little complacent and his grades were at the bottom.

As for Flair, he’s still young and has new friends.

Half a month later, Mina was confirmed to be able to take the potion, but Miles was completely at a standstill and they had to separate.

Because of the arrival of trains from afar, talented students can go to the magic land to continue their studies and become real wizards.

“I feel that life is good now.” Meyer comforted Mina and helped her pack her luggage. “You have been doing well, Mina, and you can do even better. Don’t worry about me and Freir. We will live well here. Promise us to be yourself and be a better you.”

“I will! My brother.” She hugged the two men and then picked up her small luggage.

All she had on besides the clothes she was wearing were the rags she had worn when she left the gathering place.

These are her only remaining wealth.

She left the food to Meyer and Forier. She had heard that the treatment of people with talents would continue to improve. In the future, they would not only have food and new clothes, but also various potions, including magical equipment.

Something that only existed in legends is now within reach.

This time, many people went to the Demonic Land together. They lined up and came to a huge sandworm.

After being swallowed by the other party, their bodies seemed to be squeezed. After an unknown amount of time, when they reacted, they had arrived at a huge city.

A huge city that blocks out the sun and the sky, with walls piercing the sky.

It is unknown what great power was used to build the towering city wall, which is covered with potholes and has been through many wars.

Redforge Castle looks like a thatched cottage in the countryside in front of this city.

Standing in front of the city wall was like looking up at a giant beast, and all Mina could do was to keep looking up, trying to measure the height of the wall with her own eyes, until the pain in her neck forced her to give up.

“Welcome to Misty Rain City.”

The days after entering the Fog and Rain City seemed to be accelerated. Mina was exposed to more and more knowledge. She became a wizard and possessed a magic wand.

Then the students were divided into classes.

“Agriculture, war, municipal administration…”

It’s really hard to choose.

Everyone is free to choose what they want to learn, but of course they need to take relevant talent tests.

Mina chose a war-related major without hesitation because she found that she did not hate the feeling of fighting on the battlefield, and the exciting memories often haunted her.

“It’s so lively today.”

Mina, who had never left the Fog Rain City since arriving there, was curious.

“Master Linde will be here to teach us today.”

“Lord Lind?”

The powerful man who has always existed in legends.

I heard that he had been resisting the invasion from the Cursed Land and even launched several counter-invasion campaigns. He also started a war of unification in the Eastern Continent and almost took control of the entire Eastern Continent, bringing peace there.

The Baron of Redforge is just one of the powerful men who pledge allegiance to him.

A true lord of the continent.

Mina was nervous and excited that the elusive strong man would appear today.

They waited on a practice field, watching for the strong, burly man in armor to appear.

The armor on his body is constantly changing. It is said that it is specially forged by mechanical believers. It is updated and replaced very quickly and is priceless.

Everyone subconsciously held their breath and lowered their heads slightly to avoid the scorching figure.

“I am glad to see you here.” Lind Alman said, “The future of the wizarding world.”

It’s exactly the same as what I imagined.

Mina looked at the other person with burning eyes.

Your own value can definitely be reflected in others.

Lind seemed to notice her gaze and nodded slightly to her.

“What do you want to ask? I am willing to answer your questions, including those that your teacher does not understand.”
