Act Forty-Four: Langton's Troubled Day
Langton was a little nervous. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
To be honest, it was the first time in more than ten years that he came out alone with a girl.
Based on the opinions received on the forum, he was wearing ordinary clothes, which at first glance did not look special, but if you look closely, you can see that although his clothes are ordinary, they are very neat, and they are obviously worn after some care.
This is also the proposal of the magic card girl, you don't have to choose it to wear, but it must be neat and clean.
Langton stood at the corner of the street, in front of a rather old-fashioned-looking shop.
The shop, called Dust of the Past, doesn't actually sell ordinary food or clothes, but magical items, or more precisely, the ones that dark wizards need to cast spells.
Wander around the dust, then head to the tranquil garden next door, wait until lunchtime and return to the happy skulls of the street's most prestigious restaurant, Langton's plan is so far.
He waited while he browsed through the posts in the forum.
Langton's post yesterday is now the tallest building in the [Maelstrom] section, of course, more than eighty percent of it is the speech of a person named Magic Card Girl and the Lord of the Black Rose, the two are-for-tat, from the initial emotional problem to an academic discussion, each holding on to its own words, and no one seems to be willing to back down.
After thinking about it, Langton started another post.
[Waiting for the other party, very uneasy] - the man who strikes iron.
He just posted with the mentality of giving it a try, after all, according to Rosen, as long as this section is not a violation of the law, everything else can be posted.
As for Langton's inadvertently developed the routine of forum live broadcast, he naturally didn't know it.
Almost within a few breaths of his post, he received a reply.
[Take it easy, it's not a big deal, since the other party is willing to ask you out, then at least it means that he still has a good impression of you] - Magic Card Girl.
It seemed that the girl had been on the forum almost all the time, and Langton remembered that the two of them were still squirting at each other in the forum until late at night.
Langton replied slightly, and found that there were a few more replies, most of them encouraging or something, and of course, the Lord of the Black Rose also appeared as usual and began to sneer.
Langton wanted to send another reply, but through the pale blue text box, he saw Karen across the street.
Karene was wearing a dress decorated with lace patterns today, black stockings outlining her long legs, which was heartwarming, and her hair was simply tied up, but she looked quite attractive, which made Langton a little distracted for a while.
"Sorry for being late. ”
Karren walked through the street to Langton, and it was only then that the young man came back from his trance and realized that it was not a dream.
"It's okay, I've just arrived. ”
Langton scratched the back of his head, then pointed to the Dust of the Past sign behind him.
"How about we take a stroll around here first?"
As soon as he asked, Langton noticed that Karen was staring straight at the sign of the dust of the past, and did not answer for a long time.
Oh no, is it the wrong choice?
Langton was a little weak, and when he thought about it, it was impossible to bring a girl to such a creepy place.
But just as Langton hesitated, Karlian finally spoke.
"How do you know this place, this is supposed to be a place for dark wizards, right?"
"Well, I asked an acquaintance......
Langton wouldn't tell Karene that he had gotten the advice of the card girl in the forum and chose to meet him in this place.
Speaking of which, Langton didn't see the mobile terminal next to Kalian, and it stands to reason that Lawson should also give Karen.
However, Langton didn't dig deeper, and although the mobile terminal is quite interesting, it doesn't mean that everyone will be interested in it, and maybe Karen won't be interested in it.
"Then let's go in first. ”
Instead of asking Langton who her acquaintance was, Karen walked into the store as a natural step.
"Uh, okay. ”
Langton nodded, and followed.
After that, it seemed to go quite well, and the two wandered through the dust of the past for a long time, and finally Karen bought a pair of light blue crystals, which were said to be excellent materials for spellcasting, and Langton, after browsing them, bought a talisman that was said to have a protective effect.
The two then came to the Garden of Tranquility.
It was originally the residence of a great man, but after his death, it became public property and was converted into a garden for others to walk and rest.
Due to its uniqueness in the lifeless city of Isrul, it has become a place for couples to go on a date.
After all, while the Lich Dead don't need to be in love, necromancers and dark wizards are still ordinary humans after all.
At the heart of the garden is the House of Tranquility, the former residence of the great man, but now an art gallery for the historical artwork of the Ashes.
Langton and Karen, on the other hand, are now standing in front of one of the images.
The content of the painting is an ordinary sunset afterglow, which gives a sense of grandeur, from which you can get a glimpse of the artist's exquisite skill and a touch of mourning, but this is not the point of this painting.
"Is this the only painting here, painted not by ashes but by a human priest?"
Langton asked in a low voice, turning his gaze to the bottom of the painting.
There, the author and the year and place of the painting are marked in floral characters.
El Edle, in the monastery of Hagia Sophia in 671 A.D.
This is a painting that entered Isrul through a special channel a hundred years ago, and it is said that the author is a related person on the blood side, but people did not care, and only because it was painted by humans, so it was placed in a relatively prominent position.
And the name of this painting is also very characteristic of the blood family.
Langton saw that above, the name of "Scarlet Sun" was written in a rather neat font.
"Then this person must be quite lonely. ”
Karenne said, then looked at Langton again.
But with longing and persistence in his heart, it is precisely in this way that he can paint such works. ”
"Hmm. ”
Langton didn't know how to appreciate paintings, he only felt a faint resonance, as if the painter's mood at that time had been transmitted to his heart through time, which made people feel inexplicable melancholy.
In the end, instead of finding the Thorns of Hell in the Garden of Tranquility, they went straight to the skulls of joy, the most famous restaurant on the shopping street.
Although the name is a bit scary, it tastes pretty good, with Langton and Karene each ordering a steak, followed by a vegetable salad and two special drinks.
In the process of waiting, Langton subconsciously opened the forum to check the reply, only to see that his post had fifty replies, and everyone seemed to be waiting for the next live broadcast, and at the same time asked Langton to upload each other's photos.
Langton had no choice but to reply that he was eating, and he would write it later.
However, after he replied, Karen, who was sitting opposite, suddenly took out a mobile terminal from her pocket as if she had received some reminder.
"Hey, are you using this too?"
Langton asked, feeling a little weak, if Karen was also using it, then there was a good chance that she had seen the post as well.
Nothing else, it's embarrassing to just let Karin know that she's still asking someone else for a date, not to mention the rather silly looking live post this morning.
"Well, but I seem to have a little problem with my own and sent it back to re-debug, so I'm using my mother's mobile terminal. ”
Karen said lightly, then projected her own image.
Langton was amazed to see the user's name displayed at the top of the interface.
It's the Magic Card Girl.
"Uh...... Huh!?"
Suddenly realized, Langton was stunned for a moment before realizing the whole story.
"It seems that an acquaintance knows a lot about dating?"
Karene smiled slyly and shook her mobile terminal.
