Chapter 465: A New Home (Asking for Subscriptions, Asking for Collections, Asking for Tickets)
Pearl City International Airport, Ryan and Hermione are saying goodbye to their parents. After a month-long trip to the Celestial Empire, they finally set out on their journey back to England.
"Don't worry, aunt and uncle. I'll take care of Hermione. Ryan said to the Grangers. Hermione was chatting with Ryan's parents at this time, although she didn't know what they were talking about, but looking at Hermione who was covering her mouth and smiling, she knew that the content of the chat should be very relaxed and happy.
After listening to their parents for a while, the parents left. Ryan and the others stood side by side and waved goodbye until they stepped out of the crowd and couldn't see it.
"What a great harvest!" Hermione said happily in the departure hall. "The Celestial Magic I learned this time is very useful to me, but unfortunately all the spells need Mandarin to be activated, and it has its own magic system in it. If you weren't well-versed in the Celestial Empire's culture, people from the outside world wouldn't be able to use these magics at all. I was able to learn about this magic thanks to the memory infusion device you used earlier. ”
Speaking of this, Hermione finally reacted to one thing: "This should be the secret that you can memorize in all your previous books." ”
"Uh(⊙o⊙)..."Ryan suddenly felt that sometimes Hermione had a good memory, and it was not a good thing for him to be a good person.
This time they had switched from the Celestial Empire to a whole set of basic magic, equivalent to what English students could learn at Hogwarts. And most importantly, the materials come with plenty of notes that allow them to study on their own. In addition to this, Ryan also gained skills in Golem Magic, Magical Plant Cultivation, and Magical Material Casting. In short, the harvest is huge, and at the same time, a wizarding world that can live in harmony with the ordinary world of the outside world also points out the direction of the future struggle for the two of them.
On top of that, Ryan has signed a series of purchase agreements with his family, which, together with goods produced on a Norwegian plantation, is enough for the store to run on its own for a long time. In these chaotic times, it's important to be able to ensure a steady supply of ingredients for joke shops. Because one day a certain raw material producer or a certain raw material will disappear completely.
The first thing you do when you return to the UK is to go to your accommodation. Before going to the Celestial Empire, Ryan took out a lot of gold and gave it to his father, Mr. Lambert, who later collected the gold and deposited it in a safe deposit box in the bank, and then commissioned a real estate company to buy a manor house for the two of them as their future home. Fortunately, Mr. Lambert is now a relatively well-known writer, having only sold the rights to a new Hollywood movie a while ago. So taking out so much money at once didn't arouse suspicion.
It is a manor house over 100 years old, and the main building is a two-storey Victorian style building. In addition to this, there is a five-acre farm. The previous owner of the manor was a declining aristocrat who decided to sell the estate because he could not afford to pay the taxes and maintenance fees for the house.
As a developed country in the West, Britain can say anything as long as it has money. Therefore, in the future, as long as you entrust the farm outside to a professional agricultural company, and then you can directly get the money every year, of course, this is much less than the money you make from farming, which is more convenient.
Naturally, the price of such an estate is not cheap. It cost him nearly £700,000 in this decade. However, after taking over the manor, after carefully exploring the decoration design of the manor, both of them felt that the money was well spent.
For the next three days, the two of them devoted all their energy to the renovation of the manor: Ryan first set up an alchemy array that could block the magic reaction of the entire house and yard, and then began to set up various magical defenses for the house. Hermione was on the side helping to carve the runes. At the same time, because of the soul contract, Hermione was granted the same access to the Ten Thousand Worlds Grocery Store as the Rose Crystal. So she and Rose Crystal used the space door to travel to other worlds in their spare time, and found what they needed to decorate their new home from the various things that Ryan had collected in other worlds.
Thanks to the Vault Corporation's modular design, which allows him to choose the finished base directly, the manor tidying up went smoothly with the help of magic and robots. At the end of the three-day work, the three of them cleaned up everything in the house smoothly.
"This is our home and it feels simply amazing. After cleaning up on the afternoon of the third day, everyone sat in the living room and drank afternoon tea, and after scanning the decoration of the house and looking out at the green fields outside through the glass window, Rose Crystal sat on the windowsill with a cup of black tea and sighed.
"yes! that's what home feels like. Ryan said and touched Rose Crystal's head, and then Rose Crystal shook his head and shook his hand down, Hermione laughed at this scene. I have to say that this warm atmosphere makes the tired body and mind relax a lot.
When it was time for dinner, Ryan said to Hermione, who was sitting across from her, as he ate grilled salmon, "I've finally sorted out all the things I've harvested lately, and now it's time for a new adventure." I'm planning an early morning adventure in the New World, would you like to come along? ”
"Of course, it's my pleasure. Hermione raised an eyebrow and smiled.
Early the next morning, the two of them packed up the things they needed and set off with the rose crystal.
Ryan considered that he was not alone in this adventure, so after hesitating in front of the door of the Ten Thousand Worlds Grocery Store for a while, he chose a sixth-level world. After entering a 32-point offset point into the door of the Myriad Grocery Store, he pulled Hermione and the Rose Crystal across the pale blue barrier at the doorway.
"Why is it in the woods again?" After crossing the barrier, they glanced around the situation, and Rose Crystal looked depressed. "Can't we just be in a place that's a little less pristine? Every time we go to a world, we spend a lot of time looking for people. ”
"It's not something I can control. Ryan also looked helpless, "Let's look for it, according to the usual experience, the children of luck in this world will be nearby." It shouldn't take long to find it. ”
"This is the Douglas fir. Hermione, who had been looking at her surroundings, pointed to the surrounding trees after Ryan and Rose Crystal's daily bickering, "The whole forest is full of such trees, if we were on a relatively normal earth, then our location should be on the west coast of the Pacific Ocean in North America, if you combine the temperature around here that is about to freeze people, we should be in the northwest of the United States or in Canada." ”
"That's amazing!" Rose Crystal gave Hermione a heartfelt compliment. Ryan had also entered a whole set of encyclopedias into his brain before, but he had to think for a long time each time to retrieve the knowledge he wanted from his brain. ”
"Alright, Rose Crystal. Ryan smiled helplessly. "Let's find out if there's anyone around us who can communicate. With that, he glanced at the sky through the gaps in the branches of the taiga, but it was overcast, and the moss on the ground showed that it was a gloomy and damp place. Unable to see the stars or the sun, they could not further determine the exact location of the place.
It should be very close to the sea, and it didn't take long for three people to come to a beach. According to the survival manual, if you are on the beach, it is easier to come across human settlements along the coastline. In the woods, they found that the magic in the air was more active, which meant that there was indeed some kind of supernatural power in this world.
"Is that man killing himself?" they had just stood on the beach and looked out at the iron-gray sea for a few seconds when Rose Crystal, sitting on Ryan's shoulder, suddenly tugged at Ryan's hair and pointed in one direction with her arm.
Ryan and Hermione immediately followed the direction of Rose Crystal's finger and saw a young woman in a dark T-shirt and jeans standing on the edge of a cliff by the sea, and then jumped straight down.
"Save people. Ryan and Hermione looked at each other, then immediately went into action.
