Chapter 156: Hometown Travel
Archmage's Tower.
"You are?" Vianna looked at each other suspiciously, she could feel the immense power contained in the middle-aged female elf, and she could also feel the connection between each other's blood, but she was sure that she didn't know this kindred, she hadn't even seen it.
"My name is Ottoria." The elf walked slowly, her eyes first curiously looking at the delicate and luxurious decorations inside the mage tower, and finally returned to Vianna's face, and said in surprise: "Actually, I am your aunt. ”
"Auntie?" Vianna was a little surprised, for many years, she had always been alone, occasionally her fellow people would come to Vendôme to rest, but they were all passing by, the longest one only stayed for three days, she never knew that she had an aunt.
"Yes, auntie. I am your father's youngest sister, and the last time I saw you, you were just born, and you were so cute. Ottoria spoke softly, reaching out and gently stroking Vianna's long hair.
Vianna moved, but under the gentle and peaceful gaze of the other party, she gave up the struggle and accepted it silently.
"Those damn human thieves!" Ottoria's voice suddenly became cold: "Those despicable guys took you out of the Moonlight Continent, just like snatching the elves, these filthy guys did anything for the so-called gold coins, these filthy guys ......"
"Wait!" Vianna raised her hand to interrupt Ottoria's words: "I'm weird. I've been in Vendôme for more than 500 years, and I haven't deliberately hidden my identity, haven't you looked for me for more than 500 years? Why is it suddenly appearing again now? ”
She is no longer the child who didn't understand anything at the beginning, for more than 500 years, in the bustling and noisy Vendôme, she has read countless red dust hours, and she is already a wise and mature archmage, she will not trust anyone at will, even if this person is her kindred, claiming to be the sister of her ethereal father.
"That's because we thought you were dead." Ottoria sighed and sat down on a chair, looking at the void, her eyes full of memories: "After you were stolen, we searched everywhere, and even went to the Starlight Continent, and we have been looking for twenty years, but there has been no result, except for some broken rumors, we have not found anything. We thought you were killed. Then, your elderly father went into hibernation, and your mother and I began to conceive the next generation. Moreover, for the dragon, more than 500 years is not a long time, it is just a blink of an eye. ”
"There's a point in what you're saying." Vianna nodded, and she poured a glass of water for Ottoria: "There is no denying that you and I are related by blood. But I'm curious, where did you hear about me...... Oh, I remember, you mentioned the Moonlight Continent, so it must have been the news that the elf brought over, right? ”
"That's right. You're sharp, just like your father. Ottoria looked at Vianna with a gentle and kind glint in her eyes: "Child, it's time to go home." The hometown of our Emerald Dragon is in the Moonlight Continent. ”
"Home?" Vianna's eyes were a little confused, she had never had this concept in her head, but this confusion quickly disappeared: "No, no, no, for me, my home is here, in Vendôme. ”
Yes, the green dragon in front of her is her elder, but she has grown up and is independent now, in the process of her growth, there is no shadow of the Moonlight Continent at all, she has no feelings for the Moonlight Continent, including the dragon in front of her.
Ottoria wasn't surprised, she smiled, "You have a reasonable idea. But as your elder, I must remind you of something. ”
"You say."
"We dragons are a guardian race, guarding the survival and balance of the continent. Each dragon has its own responsibilities. The Bronze Dragon guards time, the Obsidian Dragon guards the earth, the Red Crystal Dragon guards life, and we guard the balance of nature, which is the rule set by the Creator. To do this, one must stay away from mortal races, especially mortals like humans whose lives are short. ”
Vianna was silent, she had to admit that the lifespan of human beings was indeed a little shorter, even for those powerful people who had been promoted to legends, three hundred years of life was already the limit.
Three hundred years is a short time.
Ottoria continued: "With the flick of a finger, a human can go through the entire course of his life, and the time is so short that he doesn't even have time to think about the meaning of his life. He spends all his time following his instincts and chasing interests. So the human race is always full of enthusiasm, blindly enthusiastic. This kind of impulse to be confused is very terrible, and often leads to the consequences of slander. So it's not a good thing to stay with them. ”
"But you and the elves ......"
"The elves were the first civilized mortals in the world, and their extremely long history allowed them to develop sufficiently. They have the qualities of demigods, and the elders among them are calm and wise, and their wisdom is amazing, and they are always able to help us. That is why our people and they are willing to approach them. Ottoria laughed, "You've met Rufi too, don't you think so?" ”
Vianna had to admit: "That's true. However, there is no shortage of far-sighted and wise people among the Terrans. The Creator did not choose a race when he gave the talent, he threw it like a bean. ”
As she spoke, she couldn't help but think of Rollin, the twenty-year-old human, who was also full of the enthusiasm and impulses of human beings, but whose deep gaze always made her feel unconsciously in awe.
"Scattering beans? Ha ha. Ottoria couldn't help but laugh: "What you said is not wrong. But you have to understand that the perfection of the individual does not erase the flaws of the entire race. ”
"No, I think you're wrong. At least in the Terrans, the history of the world is largely written by heroes. Gifted and visionary heroes have guided the passionate and ordinary people along the way, creating many miracles that even our people can hardly imagine, such as this prosperous city. Vianna couldn't help but argue.
"Oh~" Ottoria's eyes showed sympathy: "Vianna, my child, you have been here for too long, and your mind has been influenced by the Terrans. Remember, our mission is balance, and the city created by man is magnificent, but it greatly disrupts the balance of nature and is not worth advocating. ”
Vianna felt a little irritated by the aunt's gaze, she felt that their thoughts, their preferences were completely at two extremes, and they could not communicate at all.
"I won't go to the Moonlight Continent, I grew up here, and my heart has recognized this land." Vianna's tone was serious and firm.
Ottoria was silent, she had discovered that words alone could not impress her niece, who had grown up in a foreign country.
After thinking for a while, she discussed: "My construction is indeed a bit hasty, and I also have some prejudice against the human race. But before making a final conclusion, I think you should go to the Moonlight Continent with me, live there for a while, see that land, and treat it as a guest, do you think it's okay? ”
If it was a guest, Vianna certainly didn't mind, she nodded in agreement: "That's no problem, if you can, you can leave now." ”
She really should be away for a while.
Because of Rollin's affairs, she couldn't calm down. As for the destruction of the Miè sect, although Archmage Disentas has a problem, the lord has intervened, the knight has already begun to investigate, and she has also reminded Archmage Rafibel. Primor, who has only been away for a month or two, should not have a problem.
Ottoria smiled: "Of course it's fine. ”
She pointed to the window, and a little green dot flew out, turning into a bird and flying into the night sky, which was sending a message to the elf.
Then with a flick of her hand, a portal appeared in the room: "Let's go, child, and go to our hometown." ”
Vianna nodded, and she greeted the maid in the house: "If anyone looks for me, say that I have gone far away, and it will take at least a month to return." ”
"No problem, master." The maid nodded.
Vianna stepped through the portal, followed by Ottoria, and the portal vanished.
…………………
On the night Vianna and Ottoria left, a passionate secret conversation was going on in the Lord's Castle, in the Lord's Lady's room.
The two sides of the conversation were a man in the prime of life wearing a mask, and while he was going over the clouds with the lord's wife, he gasped and said, "Things haven't been going well lately. ”
"I know." Liv's voice trembled slightly, and she couldn't bear the strong stimulation of her body: "They destroyed a large stronghold near Vendôme. Knight Ben also began to intervene. This qiē is the ghost of Luo Lin, we have to find a way to kill him! ”
"No, no, no, you can't kill him." The masked man shook his head, and he kneaded Liv's chest so hard that the other had to bite his lip tightly so that he wouldn't shout for people to hear.
It took a while for Liv to come through, sweating her temples, but she didn't forget to ask, "Why didn't you kill him?" Shouldn't he be punished? ”
"The master is playing a big game. On the chessboard, this proud young man is destined to become the commander of the dark army, just like the dark knight Barenzo 10,000 years ago, no, no, it's the same, it's beyond him, he will lead our army across the continent! ”
"Just him? Does such a hillbilly have the ability to do this? Liv's eyes widened with disdain.
"Smack!" She was slapped in the face by the masked man: "Remember, never question the master's decision, all you have to do is obey him and try to help the master fulfill his wishes!" ”
"Yes." Liv shuddered and fell silent.
"Also, try to try to keep Vianna's attention as close as possible. This archmage is staring at me too closely. With her, I can't do a lot of things. ”
"I'll invite her to banquets in the castle from time to time, don't worry."
"Good, not bad. Do a good job, and the master will give you more rewards. Someday, you'll have everyone prostrate at your feet in awe, Liv. ”
The masked man didn't give Liv time to answer, and he began his final dash, sending the beautiful lady lord into a trance cloud in a powerful continuous impact.
After a while, he got up and left, and one last glance at the lord's wife, who was already slumped in bed, couldn't help but smile contemptuously. 'Enjoy ignorantly, fool! ’R1152
