Chapter 398: The Black Hand Appears
Early the next morning.
Sun Ran got up as usual, used a cleaning magic spell on himself, thought about it, and cast another one on Toria, who was still asleep, and then read the magic book at the desk as usual.
After watching for a while, there was movement behind her, and Toria woke up.
She looked at Sun Ran bathed in the morning light with sleepy eyes, and her heart was at ease: "I thought he would indulge in my body, it seems that he is very restrained, which is really good." ’
She got up, stretched lazily, didn't care that her beautiful body was exposed to the air, and persuaded: "Russell, don't work so hard, it's okay to rest for a day." ”
Sun Ran shook his head: "No, if you can rest today, you will find other excuses to rest tomorrow, and there will be new excuses the day after tomorrow, and if you look back later, there will be too much time wasted." ”
Toria opened her mouth, realizing that she had nothing to refute.
For a diligent magician, this is naturally a wise saying.
However, they had just made out last night, and so early in the morning, they didn't continue to warm up, and buried themselves in the sea of magic, even if she was really Friggia, she also felt that this Russell was a complete emotional idiot, and it was no wonder that he was able to sleep in the same bed with the original Toria, but he was able to stay together for five days in a row.
'This Russell, fortunately, the person I met was me, and if I had changed to another woman, I would definitely be unhappy at this time. This little villain, like most magicians, will definitely end up alone and old. Frigga thought to herself.
However, although she could understand the magician's paranoia, she still felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. She didn't hesitate to turn her face with Odin and came down to earth, but when she ran into such a piece of wood, she faintly felt a little worthless.
Driven by this subtle emotion, Toria casually put on a nightgown. got up from the bed, walked behind Sun Ran with a pretty step, stretched out his hand, covered the magic book, and asked half-jokingly: "Magic or me, which one do you want to choose?" ”
"This ......" Sun Ran suddenly looked embarrassed.
He was in a dilemma. Toria was satisfied, and the unhappiness in her heart disappeared immediately. She knew that if it had been changed a day ago, this kid would definitely not hesitate to choose magic, but now he hesitated, it means that he has weight in his heart.
So she took her hand away and said with a smile: "Okay, it's funny, you still take it seriously." ”
She pulled up a chair and sat beside Sun Ran. He smiled and asked, "I've been so focused, have you had any new realizations lately?" ”
Seeing Sun Ran's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, Toria immediately understood what he meant, and added, "You forgot, I'm also a magician." You and I simply say that I should be able to understand. ”
Sun Ran nodded and explained, "I've never discussed it with anyone before, and I'm a little unaccustomed to it for a while. But you're willing to listen. That's for the best. In fact, over the years, in addition to mastering more advanced magic. One of my biggest achievements is that I have regained a new understanding of mental power. ”
"Oh? Isn't spiritual power the source of magic power? What else does it do? "Toria started to get really interested.
Sun Ran shook his head: "Indeed, all magic books say that spiritual power is the origin of magic power. But I've found that this is not the case. ”
At this point, a look of extremely focused attention began to appear on his face, and those clear black eyes were directed at Toria, but the pupils were unfocused. It seems to be getting deeper and deeper, as if it has fallen into its own world.
He reached out, reached lightly into the air, and held it again, as if trying to grasp something. The tone also began to ethereal: "Six years ago, I was devoured by magic power, and my spiritual power began to wither, and at one time, I also had despair in my heart......"
"Oh, I shouldn't have abandoned you in the first place." Toria felt that she could deeply understand this despair, and her heart was full of love and pity, and she couldn't help but reach out and soothe Sun Ran in her arms.
Sun Ran didn't seem to feel it, so he leaned into Toria's arms and continued: "Then I began to meditate, trying to eliminate all the distractions in my heart. At first, it didn't work much, but after three months, my heart was finally able to give up all my worries and sorrows, forget everything, and be as still as water. One morning, while meditating, I suddenly saw a wonderful sight. ”
"Tell me about it?" Toria asked softly.
"Hmm." Sun Ran nodded: "This is my body, I can clearly see my own existence, just like looking at a stranger." I could see my bones, my flesh, my heart, everything. I also discovered that I had some kind of strength that could slowly repair any wounds in this body, and I did. ”
"Oh, that's amazing." Toria compliments from the bottom of my heart.
She knew what was going on, this was the state of the soul half-detached, which meant that the soul was about to begin to become independent, and this was the beginning of the legend, the beginning of the path of the gods!
To be able to rely on one's own comprehension, at the age of sixteen, to do this is unprecedented.
Sun Ran continued to flicker: "It took me more than half a year to repair all the scars in my head. Slowly, I found that my control over the magical energy, that is, my mental power, began to improve again. ”
"And what are your conclusions?" Toria asked.
"My final conclusion is that the magic revolt is not an unsolvable divine punishment, it is just an irreparable damage to the brain. The connection between the body and the soul is not so close. It seems to me that the body is more like a container, and the soul seems to be independent. ”
Hearing this, Toria couldn't help but feel an earthquake in her heart: "This Russell is really a great talent, and he has actually begun to see through the essence of the existence of the virtual world from another angle. ’
If this continues, within ten years, he will definitely be promoted to the realm of legends. This time I went down to earth, it was indeed worth it. There was no doubt in Toria's mind.
"Russell, I'm so proud of you." Toria praise.
Sun Ran shook his head and said solemnly: "No, no, no, this discovery is not mature, and it is mixed with many of my conjectures. You know, true magic has no room for guesswork, and I have to perfect it before I can really use it. ”
Toria nodded, and said softly but firmly, "Okay, you can just let it go." No matter what, I'm behind you. ”
"Toria, you're so nice." Sun Ran sighed 'from the bottom of his heart', his eyes were as clear as ever, like a child who has been looking for shells by the sea of truth.
"Ha Lu Ha. You. "Toria softened her heart, and motherhood overflowed.
In this secret encounter, Sun Ran won again. Frigga fell into the emotional trap set by Sun Ran step by step.
After a while, seeing that it was not early, after the two of them finished breakfast, Toria left the mansion. Go to the palace to attend to the affairs of the palace and prepare for the banquet that will soon follow.
Sun Ran stayed in the mansion and continued to read the magic book boringly and intently.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is afternoon, Toria came back from Snow Swan Castle, went to the room, took off her robe and hung it on the coat rack, and said with a smile: "Russell, there is news from Sky City. The Archon has passed away, and they want you to be the new Archon. ”
Sun Ran didn't look back, and decisively refused: "No, I don't like politics." ”
Toria smiled: "I knew you would say that, so I refused for you, but I still keep one thing, and they also want you to be the guardian of Sky City." ”
"Oh, this one does. I've heard that Guardians can browse the secret library of Sky City. That's exactly what I need. Facing Toria, Sun Ran will tell his true thoughts to a certain extent.
Toria laughed. Very satisfied with the lover's unreserved trust: "Okay." That's all you can say in front of me. Don't be so blunt with those magicians, it will make them unhappy. ”
"I know what I do." Sun Ran nodded.
"It's not good to be bored in the mansion all day long, go for a walk with me, maybe you can find new inspiration." Toria said.
Sun Ran had been bored for a long time. At this time, he hesitated for a moment, closed the magic book, nodded and said, "What you said makes sense, I am now stuck in a bottleneck, and I just need to change my thinking." ”
Toria smiled. Reaching out and taking Sun Ran's arm, the two walked out of the room.
"There are five days left until the state banquet. I'm going to have our wedding reception at the same time and the coronation of the Guardian of Sky Castle, is that okay? Toria asked.
"As long as you're happy, I don't have any opinion." Sun Ran said. Someone made careful arrangements for him to expand his influence on the mainland, but he couldn't ask for it.
Toria smiled happily.
The Moon Mansion is very large and there is also a beautiful garden in it. Because the state banquet is approaching, it is full of nobles from all over the world, and many people are walking in the garden.
The queen and Sun Ran appeared, and the nobles they met along the way all took off their hats and saluted Her Majesty, and at the same time looked at Sun Ran beside her curiously.
Although these nobles knew that the Great Magician was powerful, they didn't intuitively feel it, and Sun Ran was young, so they didn't feel much awe, but looked up and down curiously.
Occasionally, someone will even ask, "Are you the Great Magician?" Doesn't it look like it? ”
Or, "It's like a little white face, hee-hee." ”
"It can't be your majesty who brought you up, right?"
Toria was afraid that Sun Ran would be unhappy, so she explained in a low voice: "The people walking here are all small nobles, and the real powerful nobles have not yet arrived. They have not seen much of the world, and they lack reverence for the strong. Don't mind. ”
"Huh?" Sun Ran's eyes were confused, as if he had just come back to his senses, and then said, "Oh, I'm thinking about a question." Did they just say anything? ”
Dare to love his mind is not here at all, Toria smiled: "You, it's just a piece of wood." ”
As he was walking, a knight suddenly galloped outside the garden, and the knight glanced left and right, and when he saw Toria walking in the garden, his eyes lit up, and he ran straight over, and when he got closer, he said loudly: "Your Majesty, in the eastern trade area of the city, we found a gathering place for black hands, and there are even high-level demons in it, which is very dangerous. For the sake of safety, we hope you will return to the palace immediately! ”
The humanized High Demon is still a High Demon, and his body is very strong. The demon's reputation spread all over the continent, and now it actually appeared in the royal capital, and the nobles who were walking in the garden were immediately frightened.
"What's going on?"
"God, it's a demon, run!"
"Guards! What about my guards? ”
The garden immediately became chaotic.
Toria used amplification magic on herself and shouted, "Stop! I'm still here! ”
The queen's composure finally allowed the nobles to find some security and settle down a little.
Toria then turned to look at the knight and said, "No, it's critical, I can't stand idly by!" ”
Then she looked at Sun Ran beside her: "Russell......."
Before he finished speaking, Sun Ran nodded: "I know the truth." ”
He raised his hand in the air, holding it in a void, and after a second, there was a crisp sound of crystal glass shattering from the window of the mansion, and a sea-blue light cluster flew over quickly, and the light cluster dragged a long tail composed of fine light points, which was extremely dazzling, and caused an exclamation.
"What's that?"
"Is it magic?"
"What beautiful magic." Toria was right, these nobles were short-sighted countrymen who were powerful in their own territory.
The light cluster finally fell on Sun Ran's hand, it was a staff that glowed with sea blue light, it was Sun Ran's weapon, a perfect-level elemental energy guide staff from the Alchemy Hall of Sky City.
The staff was in his hand, and a strong light flashed on it, and in just one or four seconds, a sixth-level 'Great Flying Technique' was emitted, and a pair of cyan light wings with a wingspan of nearly six meters appeared.
Compared to when he was a six-star magician, Sun Ran's spell casting speed was not much faster, because the power of his staff was weakened. If he were to take the Epic Legion Captain's Staff, or even the Guardian's Staff, this progress would be very noticeable.
"Take me along!" Toria shouted.
Sun Ran nodded, hugged Toriya's waist, and then the light wings suddenly fanned, 'boom', and the air waves overflowed, rushing to the sky, leaving a small lord and little nobleman who was blown by the air waves.
"This ...... Is it the Great Magician? (To be continued......)
