Chapter Eighty-Eight: Prophecy
Xia Di was taken aback.
In front of him was an A-class prop, a flying magic carpet.
As the name suggests, it is used for manned flights.
In The Legend of Mignion, there are three ways to fly: Flying Pet, Sky Magic, and Manned Items.
The number of magical beasts with flying abilities is scarce, and it is difficult to tame. The magic of Xiangtian can only be mastered by god-level magicians, so most players can only rely on props with flying ability to meet their needs, so this kind of props are generally more expensive, even the cheapest magic broomstick, between a hundred gold coins, or limited magicians can use it.
The flying magic carpet in the hand is different, and it is a prop that anyone can use. Although in terms of speed and endurance, it is not at all comparable to the flying magic pet or soaring magic, but even so, in this game with less than half of the players who have the ability to fly, it is still a very valuable item.
Even Xia Di didn't buy it.
In the face of such a generous gift, how could he not be surprised.
The tutor nodded and said, "You can use it, the little girl has been gone for so long, even if you have horses, you may not be able to catch up, although this thing is not fast, but at least it can climb mountains and mountains." It doesn't take much effort to get there. ”
"This ...... Yes, but ......"
Is it okay to just give yourself that?
Although Xia Di was naturally happy to be able to take things for nothing, this was too valuable after all, and he was somewhat hesitant.
Coupled with thinking back to the previous task, Xia Di wondered if the mentor would have any troublesome conditions attached to it after receiving the things.
As if seeing what Xia Di was considering, the mentor shrugged his shoulders and said, "Young man, I have accepted the job of protecting this city, if you fail to prevent the demonic beasts from escaping from the dungeon in time, resulting in the destruction of this city, then wouldn't I have broken my promise?" Moreover, this city is where I have lived for more than ten years, and suddenly an old woman like me is asked to relocate, how can I agree. Just giving some help to young people can save their homes, what do I have to worry about. ”
"I have a question." Xia Di was silent for a while and asked.
"What?"
"Why do you trust us so much?" Xia Di remembered the experience of Kay Lu walking away from yesterday since he met his mentor, and he felt that everything had been guided, and he couldn't help but accentuate his tone, "Yesterday too, you were secretly stimulating Kay...... That woman, it's clear that our strength is not strong, why do you repeatedly lead us to be involved in the crisis of this city? ”
"Didn't I say that?" The mentor was a little surprised, "Because you are the chosen one. ”
"The Chosen One?"
Xia Di frowned, looking confused.
"Hundreds of years ago, when Britain was still under Roman rule, a prophet prophesied that Britain would be free, honored, and reborn in a hundred years. Then, in a crisis that would collapse the nation, God will send a chosen one to save the nation, and the land will be called the kingdom of heaven. ”
The tutor spoke slowly, her reddish-brown eyes seemed to be filled with indescribable will.
"I think you are the prophesied saviors." The mentor concluded.
"......" Xia Di was stunned, he didn't know what to say, so he could only keep his mouth shut tightly.
As a player, he never believed in prophecies, legends or anything, because all of this was just a game set up by the maker in order to improve the world view and guide the player, and there was never any real unpredictable prophet, although he understood that this was the real world, but his habitual thinking still made him unable to completely believe the words of his mentor.
"Is the Chosen Plural?" Xia Di came back to his senses and asked.
"Can't be sure." The guru replied, "Before you came here, I kept using astrology to try to predict more accurate outcomes, but in the end I just knew about your arrival. ”
"In other words, astrology is the only reason you can trust us?"
"Can't you believe it?"
"After all, it's not easy to be a hero." Xia Di shrugged his shoulders, "It is said that there were many heroes in the ancient period of Britain, and there were countless strong people from the fourth to the fifth order, and under such conditions, it was necessary to rely on huge sacrifices to defeat that demonic beast, and you actually believed that two weak people of unknown origin and a group of ordinary knights could deal with it, I think you might as well come with us...... Leave all the things about guarding the city to Erin, at least she is not superstitious, and she is more reliable. Xia Di sighed.
Xia Di felt his heel being kicked.
He turned his head to see Erin looking at him with a puffed face.
"It's just a metaphor,......" Xia Di coughed lightly.
The tutor was silent for a while, and then said in an indifferent tone.
"Have you ever heard the saying that history repeats itself. If we write all our histories in one book, we will find that some events can act as another event if you modify the year. The mentor smiled faintly, "Why don't I believe you when the short Semitic boy David defeated the giant Goliath, the mighty Persian Empire was defeated by the loose Greek city-states, and the weak defeated the strong?" ”
Xia Di was speechless for a moment. His reason told him that what the mentor said was nothing more than a lie, but for some reason, he inexplicably felt that what the other party said made sense.
"Little brother, time." Erin reminded.
"Got it." Xia Di nodded, "Then, I'm leaving." ”
Xia Di picked up the magic carpet and carried it on his shoulders and walked towards the gate.
He spread out the magic carpet slightly, and as soon as he went out, he opened it and jumped on it, intending to take off immediately.
"Young man." The guru's voice came from inside the house, "One more thing I forgot to tell you, this city is now under martial law, and it is forbidden to be empty. If you use this item in the city, you will be targeted by the archers of the Order. Don't forget to use it when you're out of town. ”
“……”
Xia Di immediately put away the magic carpet.
"The magic power capacity of the magic carpet is not large, and it consumes quickly, so you'd better not fly for too long, remember to lower it every half an hour and replenish it with your own magic power, so that it is safer."
……
Xia Di was walking down the street.
The streets were deserted, and there were originally knights patrolling around, but now they were either on the march, or they were concentrated near the city gates as an emergency force. The residents seemed to sense something and took refuge in their homes, and almost no one dared to go out into the streets.
"It's so lonely." Feeling the solemn atmosphere in the city, Xia Di sighed and continued to walk in the direction of the city gate.
When he arrived at the city gate, Xia Di saw the closed gate.
At the gates and on the city walls, a small number of knights stood at this moment, as well as a temporarily recruited militia. Together, there are less than 100 people.
Their expressions were serious, their eyes were blazing, and it seemed that the nerves in their whole bodies were tense.
One of the militiamen saw Xia Di and stepped forward to stop him.
