On January 1, 778 A.D., the city of Falan was immersed in a lively and peaceful scene.

No matter which world it is, the commemorative day of "the end of the year" will always be very crucial, as if since the human era has formulated the chronology, the quantifiers used to measure the growth of people have a special meaning, so whenever the invisible time crosses the tangible length, people will use the same method to commemorate the lost time, called remembrance, and thus force themselves to remember the people and things of the past.

In the past, the festival was a warm-up for the New Year, but this year's celebration was particularly noisy, so this time the New Year was also very lively. As the most lively street in Falan City, Tonghuo Lane has long been overcrowded, and the Mage Association has to temporarily revoke the ban on flying, allowing mages and high-level samurai to fly "with licenses" to ease the burden on the street, but this can work the roofs of the security office and major stores...... The hustle and bustle also adds to the festive season.

Gotik walked down the street, the noise was just right, and he felt like he was soaked in laziness. Walking through the bustling crowd, his gaze was a little misty.

Jialanren was immersed in this atmosphere, and did not notice any fundamental changes in the atmosphere from previous years, but he experienced a kind of freedom and fulfillment.

This indescribable experience may have something to do with his experience. Gortik had a rough experience before coming to the city, after which his life was depurposed because of his long-cherished wishes, and then he came to the city in pursuit of wealth and the ideal "aristocratic life".

When he first arrived, he felt that it was like a pool of stagnant water, and he was very unaccustomed to it, and it was not until the beginning of this year that he faintly adapted to it, but in less than a year he experienced another transformation...... Life is full of surprises.

It may seem to many people that it all started on the day of the celebration, but in his opinion, the impact was much earlier than that.

To be exact, it should have started with the large order in April......

He remembered that the Clark family had ordered tons of phosphorus powder from him in one go. It was an expensive illusion material, and a small bag cost dozens of gold coins, but the other party bought several tons in one go, and Rao almost couldn't get this deal because he had a special way. Fortunately, the other party was not in a hurry, and the time was always in June, so that he could gather the materials and successfully complete the business.

It didn't take long for news to spread about "Seraf" from Jialan Academy, and there was no doubt that these materials were used in Seraf.

And before that, "A Song of Frost and Fire" had already spread throughout Falan City.

Gotik wasn't a student of Jialan, and he didn't know what had changed in the academy during that time, but he could feel the subtle effects of the opening of Seraf's visitor quarter—the barrier between nobles and commoners had been broken down in just one month, and he had been able to befriend figures like Sir Wilson.

Now, of course, it's time to call it Earl Wilson, and I've heard eyewitnesses say that Lord Sir that night's float was actually a huge crossbow machine disguised to help the Third Prince, now His Majesty Lawrence III, to shock the scene, but everyone is still more accustomed to calling him His Majesty Fello.

On the day of the celebration, as everyone in the tower descended one after another, His Royal Highness Fellowo also completed the coronation ceremony. In the following more than a month, with the acquiescence of the parliamentary family, the aristocratic circle ushered in a round of reshuffle, and the meritorious Sir Wilson naturally got his wish and was made an earl.

It is worth mentioning that although his status has risen a lot, Lord Sir has not forgotten his old friend, and the two have teamed up to open several "dungeons" during this time, and the relationship is even better than before, and the other party even gave him the house in the Crubell block after moving into the Crusail block as he wished.

There are many more situations like this, and the nobles and commoners of Fa Lan City are no longer like a high wall has been erected between them as before, especially after His Excellency Mu Yan said those words, the estrangement is not so obvious.

Fa Lan City was only affected by Seraf's "aftermath", not to mention the Jialan Academy, which was taken care of?

So Gotick is 100% sure that the changes and impacts there will be even more far-reaching, enough to rewrite the future of Jialan.

Speaking of which, hasn't Jialan's future been changed, just look at His Royal Highness Fei Luo that night, you can see how ordinary young people have that kind of courage.

The sudden noise in his ears broke Gotic's musings, and before he knew it, he had come to the end of Copperfire Alley, where there was a long queue at the entrance of the Dusk Tavern in front of him, and even the neighboring blocks were crowded with people. Looking at the clothes, they are not all drunkards, but more servants and commoners of the nobility.

What's more, drunkards who love to join in the fun can't squeeze out such a long line, they never queue up......

Gotick tried to squeeze forward, but he couldn't move an inch, so he simply stepped back and quietly let out his perception.

But before he could see what was going on inside, just like on the night of the celebration, his perception was once again grabbed by someone, and he was so startled that he broke out in a cold sweat and didn't dare to move a single step.

However, the difference is that this time the other party did not say anything else, just let him go with a simple warning.

Gotik was stunned, and stood still for a moment before poking the arm of the person next to him, "What is going on here?" ”

"The signing of the second volume of "A Song of Frost and Fire"!" The man exclaimed, "I learned that Eric the Bard of the Twilight Tavern was the author of that book, and I always thought it was just a beautiful coincidence!" ”

"Wait...... Signings? What's that? ”

"It's also the first time I've heard of it, and it sounds like 500 copies are being sold on the spot, and each title page has his magical signature! The kind that others can't imitate! Just like the bonus of "Bignius", you know the bonus, right? The booklet for 300 gold coins on the black market is much thicker than a bonus! And there is no shortage of readers of this book among Turing and Morning Star, think about it, how can you say that the autographed 'limited edition' can also sell for thousands of gold coins! This is a great blessing for us! ”

Gotik probably understood, thanked the brother and walked away quickly.

In this way, the doubts in his heart were also solved.

The author of "A Song of Frost and Fire" is Mr. Eric, and this book was first published in Bignius. The producer behind this newspaper is Mr. Mu Yan, and I heard that he has been hiding in the crowd on the night of the celebration and only appeared at the last minute...... And his own perception is treated equally twice......

It is not difficult to guess who these two warnings came from......

Speaking of which, it seems that the beginning of all this is also Mr. Mu Yan.

Gotick looked up at the magic light curtain projected on the most prominent wall in the Krubel neighborhood, which previewed the "movie" that would be shown in the Square of Truth tonight, which he had also concocted. Compared with the retro singing and cliché plot in the opera house, the "movie" released in the Square of Truth a month ago is truly wonderful, with thousands of troops, dynasties fighting for hegemony, the collision of two cavalry forces on the vast plain, and the mages fighting together in mid-air......

Originally, the two opera teams of "Purple Mandala" and "Midsummer Night's Forest" were almost unemployed because of the movie, but I heard that the people of the Moon Workshop found their person in charge and invited them to participate in other films, and now this "trailer" should be it, it seems to be a remake of "Rose Tango", an opera he is very familiar with.

"New Year...... I'm really looking forward to it......"

Gotick sighed, then disappeared into the Krubel Strip in a brisk tune.
