Chapter 387: The Talking Door
Maybe it was a long time, maybe it was only a moment, and all the sounds in Locke's ears disappeared. With his eyes closed, he felt himself in a quiet room or hall, surrounded only by the slight rustle of books and writing.
Locke's eyes opened in an instant, and he was shocked to find himself standing in the middle of a rich, empty hall.
Under his feet was a thick carpet woven of wool, which was dyed red, and it was unusually soft to step on, which made Locke very envious. You know, he didn't have anything like it in his home in the Silver Pine Forest, not even a carpet. The reason for this is that there is no other person, but poverty.
The crimson carpet, the crimson elven-style tables and benches with elegance and nobility, and the corners around the hall were elves who were lying on the tables and writing hard, dressed in black and red robes, without even lifting their heads.
Locke's gaze passed over them, and on the walls of the rotunda, several hanging lamps were glowing blue-white. Around them, blue or red gems were suspended in mid-air, floating up and down, and occasionally flickering slightly.
Huge red Silvermoon City flags hung from the very top of the vaulted hall, and they hung one after another on the walls. They were about a few feet long and about two feet wide, and in the very center of the strip banner were inlaid with the emblem of Silvermoon City sewn in thin yellow thread. At the very bottom of the flag, pots of green potted plants float on the ground, giving off an uplifting fragrance from time to time.
Accustomed to seeing the simple and rough buildings of human beings, suddenly seeing such a building structure really made Locke a little in a trance.
This scene evokes some hidden memories in Locke's heart, just like when he was a security guard in the hotel in his previous life, the restaurant was all red, and the tables and chairs were the same. If the elves who were lying on the table on both sides and were struggling to write were replaced by guests eating in a whisper, Locke would even think that he had returned to the past.
Shaking his head, pressing the inexplicable melancholy in his heart, Locke turned his head to look at Noneis next to him. However, to his surprise, Noris, who had been holding him tightly when he walked into the portal, was not by his side.
What's going on?
Locke touched his nose, could it be that the portal was malfunctioning? Sending yourself to the wrong place?
Locke was a little panicked for a while, and teleported an accident, which would really kill someone!
Just as Locke was about to ask the elf who was writing next to him, a door at the back of the hall opened, and Locke turned his head to see that Norris was looking at him worriedly, and she was visibly relieved to see that she was okay. Behind her, the Magister Landra, was looking at herself with a grin.
Perhaps afraid of disturbing the other writing elves around her, Norris did not speak, and opened her mouth to make a few silent words at Locke.
"Come here."
So, Locke carefully stepped on the carpet and walked towards Noris. However, the armor he wore didn't make a sound of friction because he lowered his steps.
A knife-sharpening noise came from Locke's body, and the elves were disturbed, and they all raised their heads and glared at Locke.
To this, Locke bowed to them apologetically.
It's not a pleasant thing to interrupt someone else's study or work casually, and the elves don't give Locke a good face.
Locke strode out of the hall under the disgruntled eyes of the others, and found himself standing in a hallway, lined with red wooden doors that closed one after the other.
After leaving the room, Norris behind him gently closed the door, and Locke couldn't wait to ask the question.
"What's going on? Magical accidents? Why didn't Norris and I teleport together? Locke's angry voice echoed through the narrow corridor. If someone wanted to do this to us, there was no way we could dodge such an attack! ”
Hearing Locke say this, Landra was obviously a little embarrassed, she didn't expect the human in front of her to think of this. She just wanted to play tricks on Locke, and as a magus, it wasn't difficult to do anything about her portal and teleport people to other places without her permission or without her permission.
"Shhhh Let's talk in a different place. Fortunately, Landra was used to this, and she stopped Locke, who was still trying to continue, and told the two to follow her, and then began to walk down the hallway.
It wasn't long before Randra, who was leading the way, stopped, and she stopped outside a slightly larger door.
Without using the key, she just whispered a spell that made Locke sound unusually tongue-twisting, and then the door in front of her actually opened herself!
Locke looked at the door in front of him in surprise!
Because it lived! Yes, the red wooden door suddenly stood up on its own, with two legs growing out from under its panels, and a pair of arms growing out of the panels on either side.
"Welcome home, master."
A stiff and rigid voice came from the door. Locke found that the upper end of the door panel was like a lake, with layers of ripples, and they slowly combined to form the prototype of a human face, and the sound came from the mouth of the human face.
Landra nodded at it in satisfaction, then looked back at Locke and Norris and said, "This is my friend, remember them, they have second-level clearance. ”
"Understood, master." The wooden door stepped back, leaving enough space for Randra, and Randra strode inside.
"Welcome, guests. This is the home of Lord Randra, and I am Carthus, and I am glad to serve you. ”
Faced with the formal greeting of the wooden door, Norris just nodded and flashed into the room, obviously the elf girl had seen a lot, but Locke stopped, he was very interested in this talking door.
"Thank you, Carterus." Locke looked at the fluttering face on the door and smiled and thanked it.
The ripples on the door shook for a moment, and then he said solemnly to Locke, "The value of my existence is to serve the guests." So, please don't be polite. ”
It's amazing!
Although influenced by the games and movies of his previous life, Locke is no longer surprised by the magic of magic. However, this is the first time I have seen this kind of talking elemental creature.
During the game, the elves seem to have a deep understanding of constructing life, such as the ubiquitous Arcane Guard. They can easily talk to people and identify friend and foe. At the same time, they are also very powerful killing machines, and they are never missing from the elves' combat units.
In this way, the door in front of me is also a structural life? Locke looked the door up and down again and again, until the people inside urged him, and then Locke entered the room and let the door go for the time being.
When Locke entered, the door went back on its own, closing itself.
Walking into the room, Locke found himself in another dimension. Because the room in front of me has an area of hundreds of square meters!
This is much bigger than the hall I came out of just now! Is this space magic?! r
