Chapter 55: Far and Near
Katarina knew about Lin Zhao's cultivation in martial arts, but Gatran didn't know. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ info Justland couldn't understand Lin Zhao's choice, seeing that Lin Zhao picked for a long time, he finally took out the picture of the dagger and persuaded him: "Mr. Jack, this dagger is just an idea that I thought of temporarily and was reluctant to discard." But in terms of effectiveness, it's the least of all my visions. I think you should take a closer look at my ideas and pick one that suits you better than this dagger. β
"This dagger is the one that suits me best." Lin Zhao said categorically.
"Mr. Jack, don't you need to think again?" JatlΓ‘n continued.
"I don't think Mr. Jack needs to think about it anymore, Justland." Caterina laughed, "A magician like you who only knows how to study in an ivory tower doesn't know what we need on the battlefield. And you, you only know that Mr. Jack is a magician, but you don't know what else he is good at. As a friend of Mr. Jack's, I also know what kind of weapons Mr. Jack needs. And Mr. Jack also knows himself best. It just so happens that I've been looking for someone to craft a weapon for Mr. Jack recently, so you can tell me what I'll need for the dagger, and I'll prepare it. β
"You're overstepping my realm!" Justland instantly exploded, slapped the table and stood up, gritting his teeth word by word, "You! This! Piece! Not! Yes! Teach! Raise! Target! Woman! Person! β
Katerina shrugged and said, "I'm too lazy to meddle in your work." I only had to speak because you questioned the customer's opinion. And I do plan to find someone to build a good weapon for Mr. Jack lately. β
"I'll personally ask my iron master to craft this dagger, Katarina, my job, you don't need to worry about it." Justland said angrily, "A layman like you doesn't understand what kind of materials the magic dagger I prepared for Mr. Jack is suitable for, and what problems need to be paid attention to in the process of forging. β
"That's for the best." Caterina sneered.
This dinner ended in this super unpleasant atmosphere. Jatland gasped and left, and Lin Zhao and Caterina walked back together.
The direction they were going was not the Quekao's house. Caterina told Lin Zhao that since Lin Zhao had been reunited with Sindra, LeBlanc decided to be a good person and let Lin Zhao live in the mansion where Sindra now lives. Lin Zhao was a little happy in his heart, but he also knew very well that all of this was because he had registered as a summoner as a Noxian in the alliance branch. If this were not the case, neither Caterina nor LeBlanc would have been reassured.
Caterina sent him back to the mansion before returning to Quekao's house.
LeBlanc has a lot of opportunities, so naturally it is impossible to be here at all times. There are a few maid-like people in the mansion now, and Sindra doesn't like to live in this kind of place where there are outsiders, and stays in the sky fortress in the backyard. And those maids are definitely not ordinary people, Lin Zhao felt that those maids occasionally leaked powerful rune energy, not much weaker than Tyrone. Especially when he entered the mansion and Caterina hadn't introduced his identity yet, those runic energies that were full of hostility for a moment immediately activated Lin Zhao's "barrier" magic.
These should be the masters of Noxus or Black Rose, coming here, on the one hand, it is convenient to take care of Sindra, on the other hand, to guard against foreign enemies, and in the end, on the one hand, Lin Zhao thinks that they must be guarding against outsiders at the same time, they are also guarding against Sindra.
Maybe now there is still oneself.
The maids told Lin Zhao Sindra where he was. But even if they don't say it, Lin Zhao can also find it. Sindra's runic energy has always been arrogant and unrestrained, as long as it is not shielded by special powers, it is like a light in the night, shining. Lin Zhao went to the backyard and jumped onto the air fortress, and everything that was once familiar finally came into view again.
The door of the monastery is still in tatters and has not been repaired for a long time. The stones outside the door were covered with moss. Moistened by the energy of clouds, rain, and syndra's runes, these mosses grew extremely luxuriantly. Lin Zhao even sensed a dense rune energy between the mossy and green grass.
Sindra sat on the wall by the temple door. The first time Lin Zhao jumped onto the Sky Fortress, Sindra saw Lin Zhao. She jumped off the wall, was lifted by the rune energy and jumped in front of Lin Zhao, and said happily, "You're back." β
"Hmm." Lin Zhao nodded. He has a feeling that he has been away for a long time and has returned home, and his wife who has been waiting for him for a long time is considerate and welcome. This inexplicable feeling warmed his heart.
But immediately after, Sindra suddenly took Lin Zhao's hand and floated towards the temple, saying as she walked, "Let's go and meditate." β
β¦β¦ Yes, the thoughts and feelings just now had to be taken back.
Lin Zhao sighed secretly and walked behind Sindra. Sindra floated quickly, but fortunately, Lin Zhao was assisted by rune energy to keep up steadily.
Sindra didn't take Lin Zhao to the hall where they often practiced meditation later, but dragged Lin Zhao all the way to the room where Lin Zhao once lived. After entering the room, Lin Zhao found that everything here was neat and familiar, exactly the same as when he lived here. It seems that during his absence, Sindra often came back here to clean.
Although Sindra, who has a large number of rune energy servants, is very convenient even if it is cleaned, as long as you drive the rune energy around the room, it will be fine. But even so, Lin Zhao was very moved.
However, Sindra did not give Lin Zhao time to be moved. After pulling Lin Zhao into the room, she took Lin Zhao's hand and sat on the bed, saying, "Hurry up and sit down and start meditating." β
Lin Zhao was helpless, but he had no choice but to sit down cross-legged next to Sindra. Sindra was very satisfied with Lin Zhao's performance, threw Lin Zhao a pleasant smile, closed her eyes, and first entered meditation.
Lin Zhao immediately felt the surging sea of runic energy surging violently above this sky, converging towards Sindra. After that grief-stricken rampage of Syndra, Syndra's strength completely conquered a piece of runic energy. These runic energies are subordinate to Sindra, fearful of Sindra, and unable to shake off the powerful attraction that Sindra exhibits.
Since then, Sindra's runic energy has become stronger and stronger, and there has never been a problem with rampage again. Lin Zhao even felt that this method was the most suitable cultivation method for Sindra. This vast and intense rune energy is the most suitable rune energy for Sindra. His current method of harmonic is actually of little use to Sindra.
But Sindra didn't seem to realize it.
- No. Maybe she realized it and wouldn't care.
She just misses the feeling of meditating with Lin Zhao, and she also likes to meditate with Lin Zhao.
Lin Zhao closed his eyes beside Sindra's side and began to meditate, unfolding the method of harmony. After clarifying Sindra's current condition, Lin Zhao did not influence Sindra's meditation method without authorization. His method of attunement, on the contrary, was used in reverse, with the help of the vast ocean of Sindra, to make himself a flat boat, floating in it, swaying forward.
Lin Zhao also missed the feeling now, and after opening the method of harmony, he focused on meditation like Syndra. He felt that he had really become a small boat at this time, swaying over the vast ocean, drifting with the current, as if from time to time, there was a risk of being swallowed up by the huge waves.
He gave the lead to meditation to Sindra. His mind sank into it unconsciously, sinking more and more, sinking more and more.
When he felt that he was about to sink into the abyss of the deep sea, and even his consciousness was a little blurred, the vast sea suddenly dispersed. His consciousness lightened and floated again.
"What's wrong with you?" Sindra's voice drifted into her ears
Lin Zhao opened his eyes and saw that Sindra was frowning slightly, looking at him worriedly. It is hard to imagine that Sindra, who is obsessed with meditation, would voluntarily stop meditating at this time.
"I don't think so." Lin Zhao exhaled and said, "Don't you continue to meditate?" β
"You're not in the right state, you're thinking about all sorts of things, and it's affecting your meditation. I can feel it. Sindra replied. She was talking about a very serious question, the so-called messy things, although it aroused suspicion, but Lin Zhao knew very well that what she said did not mean that. This simple and powerful queen doesn't seem to understand what mess is.
Lin Zhao sighed and said, "I'm fine." β
"You're in trouble." Sindra's attitude was very resolute, and she categorically rejected Lin Zhao's words.
Lin Zhao fell silent. He does have something in his heart, and after so many things, he has always had an extremely depressed depression in his heart, which makes him depressed, crazy, and guilty......
The negative emotions are almost innumerable.
He hadn't experienced much good since he left Spro Village. At first, it was okay, at least at that time, there was still an ignorant but powerful, but still dependent person, and his Sindra was always by his side. But when he was kidnapped by the Noxians, and later experienced countless setbacks in Presidium, he finally escaped from the hands of the Noxians, but he was threatened at any time, and in order to become stronger, he had to dissect so many animals and the corpses of so many people, and since then, his psychological state has become very bad.
Then, his body was successfully transformed by the North Wind Divine Dragon, but he fell into the bottom area of the inner city of Noxus, and he found that he had no initiative from beginning to end, and this world seemed to be persecuting and chasing him at any time. He began to do whatever it took to survive, and in the face of survival, everything was insignificant. He thought it was a very firm idea, but when everything calmed down and he returned to Syndra, he realized that everything was far from so.
When he was immersed in the sea of Sindra's rune energy just now, and through the technique of harmony, he let Sindra's rune energy pull him and wander above the sky fortress, his thoughts were also pulled out at once.
The scene of Tang Yuan's death echoed before his eyes, and even Alona's unrepentant approach to ending up together made him feel despicable. Bertina's words from the mass grave were still ringing in his ears, and he thought he was fine then, but now that he thought about it, he regretted it.
He knew that he couldn't do anything in the face of those strong people. But if you can't do it, it doesn't mean that you can't do it.
He remembered his past life. After so many years, the memory in another time and space has become blurred, what kind of person was he at that time, and why did he die?
He vaguely remembered the scene at that time-
Speeding cars.
The old man who fell.
Howling winds.
Very old-fashioned way to die.
Moreover, that old man is still famous for touching porcelain. He couldn't remember whether that old man had fallen on the road that time.
But at that time, why did he rush out?
Now, why is it like this?
He was in a trance. Now I am really hateful.
"Why don't you speak?" Sindra asked.
He was silent for a moment before taking a deep breath and saying, "Sorry, I don't know what to say. β
Hind stretched out his hand, and the cold hand caressed Lin Zhao's cheek.
"I feel like you're so far away." Sindra said faintly, and the emotion in that tone seemed to suddenly become very unpleasant.
"Where? Am I not right here? Lin Zhao smiled reluctantly and said.
"But I feel like you're far away." Sindra suddenly said again, she seemed to be very nervous, and the hand holding Lin Zhao's cheek suddenly became stronger, unconsciously pinching the muscles on Lin Zhao's face, "You seem to be so far away from this world and from me, and you are getting farther and farther away." β
Lin Zhao was stunned. Sindra's words suddenly tapped at him. This direct and simple queen is precise and direct in her sense of everything, and she does not beat around the bush when she speaks. Sindra said that he was far away, and in an instant, he understood what Sindra's feelings meant.
Coming to this world and experiencing so many things, he seems to be rejected by this world and has been suffering all kinds of suffering. But in fact, he is also rejecting this world, and he even treats this world as a cold and twisted live game.
He took everything for granted and never took anything seriously, but in fact, he had already unconsciously integrated into the world. When cognition and ideals, as well as his emotions...... Everything conflicted, what he did became more and more wrong, and his heart became more and more depressed.
β¦β¦ It's so annoying!
This feeling of thinking through everything, but helpless.
"What should I do?" He subconsciously asked about Sindra.
Sindra lunged at him and threw herself into his arms.
The soft body was so cold, and the weak and weak arms were hugged so hard. The face that rubbed lightly against his cheek was cold, but it was trying to become enthusiastic. He sensed Sindra's mood.
The queen of the Sky Fortress is really afraid that he is getting farther and farther away, far away from life and death.
An untold amount of taste welled up in his heart, and he hugged Sindra just as tightly.
"Like...... It's closer. Sindra's voice drifted into her ears.
