Chapter 489: Everyone's Journey

At the parting banquet, Ji Ran showed all his skills.

He got all the high-grade ingredients he could find, plus the Warcraft materials and wild vegetables he got during his adventure, and matched them according to their respective properties, and made a large table of dishes.

Rice, Erin, Lydia, Ban, Anleke...... plus Ji Ran and Alice, they are the participants of this banquet.

When Ji Ran laid out a table of colorful and fragrant meals, and then sat down at the table, he frowned slightly.

"It's a pity that Baker is not there...... He should have stayed a little longer. Among the friends Ji Ran knew at the beginning, only Baker went alone early.

"No, no, no...... If he comes back here with you, he won't be able to make up his mind to go out and take risks on his own...... Baker is a very nostalgic and warm person. Ben shook his head and said with a smile.

"I know him best, so I admire his courage this time...... For him, the most terrible thing is not the enemy, but loneliness. Able to embark on the journey alone and lonely...... He's really grown up. ”

Ben's tone was relieved, and as an older brother, he was indeed qualified to say so—though he wasn't a few years older than Baker.

"Okay, then let's bless him together...... In the same way, bless you. Ji Ran took a deep breath, and then raised the wine glass in front of him.

"Bless everyone!"

The dinner was joyful, and although it was full of parting feelings, at least for now, everyone was still full of joy.

Everyone drank wine and tasted the delicious food made by Ji Ran. Telling the interesting events that happened during this period of time, the battle of Ironforge was naturally taken as the focus. Ben and Anlek, who had never experienced this battle, couldn't help but exclaim, that scene was really amazing.

"I now understand why Ben left...... If I had been there, I'm afraid I'd feel that way. So, like Baker, it was the right decision to go on an adventure alone. Ben looked at Les and Ji Ran.

There is no jealousy, Rice's strength has always been the strongest among everyone, and Ji Ran's talent is also obvious. There is no need to say much about the relationship between them. Envy of this feeling. There is no need to save zài.

But he also has a sense of crisis. There was a feeling that they were about to not be able to keep up with them. If he chooses to stay in Perth, then he can indeed live in peace...... There is a job at the distillery, and there is more income than most people, with the help of the Lawrence family and Professor Sergei. Safe. Comfortable......

If it's an ordinary person. This is the life they dream of. But Ben is different, he was born with an adventurous heart.

He wants to be an adventurer, to be a strong man who is admired. Even when he and Baker didn't have any conditions. They still haven't given up on this dream, and now that the road to the dream has become smoother, are they going to retreat?

No way. Therefore, Ban also chose to leave and chose to go on the road alone.

"You all have dreams and you all want to be strong...... It's just me, it's just me who just wants to do business, only my dreams are the humblest! I can't catch up with you, and I can't be as strong as you......"

Anlek had obviously drunk a little too much, and his words began to increase, and he began to murmur a lot of meaning.

"No, no, No, Anlek, we can all see your strength. No one will forget your steadfastness in the face of those in the Bright family, you are as strong as we are...... Even stronger than us. ”

Ji Ran patted An Leek on the shoulder.

"If you can hold on to your dream of becoming a great businessman in this world without wavering, you are stronger than most people. Moreover, becoming a great businessman is not some humble dream...... Everyone has a way to realize their own value, but it doesn't have to be strong, does it? Dreams, there is no distinction between high and low! ”

It seemed that Ji Ran's words went to the bottom of his heart, and An Lek suddenly laughed.

"That's right! There is no high or low in dreams! Come, a toast to that sentence! ”

It was late at the end of the party, and almost everyone was very drunk—even Irene. In the end, it was Lydia and Alice who sent everyone back to the room - and Apple played a big part in the process.

And when they woke up the next day, they were about to leave.

The parting was not very vigorous, probably because all the feelings were released during the banquet on the first day. With a shield on his back, a scimitar hanging from his waist, a magic bag containing the wine brewed by Ji Ran and some dry food, and a magic weapon armor refined by Ji Ran, Ban left Perth City.

He doesn't have a definite goal, he's just ready to go all the way according to his own strength.

"Maybe I'll meet Baker halfway through!" Ben left with a big smile.

Ben left, and neither did the others stay.

Erin took Hua Luo, some simple things, and the space ring that Ji Ran gave her for safekeeping, and made a boat and headed towards the Elven Forest. It was her home, and she would be there, retrieving what she had forgotten.

Les also left, on his own, with a large sword on his back. As a gold-level powerhouse, his travel can be said to be risk-free. But his destination may not be so safe.

The Bright family, although it is a family from Rice, and Rice has been in it for more than twenty years, this does not mean that this family is still a haven for Rice.

In fact, with the exception of Rice's real family - and of course only his parents - no one else welcomed Rice back.

When he returns, it means a new distribution of rights and benefits...... There will always be some people who will lose what they have in their hands.

Therefore, the resistance he is about to face can be imagined. It's just that now Les is a gold-level powerhouse.

He already has enough power to make his voice heard and get his stuff back. It's just that this process must be very difficult.

But this is a test for Rice himself, a test for himself. If the Golden Tier wants to improve its strength, fighting is no longer the only option...... Moreover, most of the battles, there will be no effect. On the contrary, this kind of training can make him more able to experience the state of mind of the golden level, which is more important for his strength improvement.

Lydia had been sending off the three of them with Jiran Alice, and then she returned to the academy.

She had already decided not to go out on adventures with Ji Ran and them...... That didn't mean much to her strength. She has to fully learn the knowledge in the academy, and then integrate it and take in all the things that she can get in the academy as much as possible...... You must know that a place like the Azure Wind Academy is enough for a person from elementary school to old age, and he will still sigh for the knowledge that is like an ocean.

An Rick continued to work on the affairs of the winery, and Ji Ran had already told him about the second pot. Domorgan and Anlek are also acquaintances now, and even if Ji Ran does not come forward, they can still make a deal.

When he returned to the small building, the feeling of being deserted made Ji Ran very uncomfortable.

Since arriving in this world, he has never been separated from his companions for too long...... Les, they, almost always stood by his side.

And now, those who were with him in the first place, have left. Of course, it's not because of everyone's emotional problems or other reasons, it's just to challenge yourself and improve yourself.

But Ji Ran still inevitably felt lonely and lonely...... suddenly became so deserted, this is something that Ji Ran has never felt since he arrived in this world.

Luckily, he still has Alice by his side.

How old this little girl is Ji Ran doesn't know, and he doesn't plan to pursue it...... Anyway, she is now her friend, and she is the one who is still by her side. She made a promise to her mother to take care of this little girl...... And he is still living up to that promise.

"Ji Ran, don't be sad. We'll definitely see each other again, for sure! Alice hugged the little black cat that Little Apple had turned into and leaned against Ji Ran's side.

Ji Ran smiled and touched Alice's hair.

"Yes, we all end up together. Face the world together, explore this vast continent together, eat together, laugh together...... The parting now is just for a reunion in the future. ”

It's not that Ji Ran doesn't understand this qiē, he just can't accept it for a while. But he also knew that he could not influence the fate of other people, and the thoughts of other people.

We're always going to get back together, aren't we?

After staying in Perth for a while, Ji Ran was a little idle. Everyone else is trying to improve, is it just standing still, waiting for them?

This is obviously not going to be the outcome that others want. So, he decided, to go out on an adventure again.

It's just that this time, he wants to embark on a long journey like everyone else.

Before leaving, he also said goodbye to his friends in Perth. Sergei and Professor Lawrence, of course, didn't say anything, just blessed him. And Anya strongly expressed her desire to go with them, but in the end, she was persuaded to go back.

"Lydia has chosen to stay at the academy and I think she is right. And so do you...... The Academy has many things that will help you, no worse than venturing outside. You have this opportunity and you should not let it go. Let's compare, when I return from the adventure, who will improve more? ”

Ji Ran's words fully aroused Anya's arrogance, so she flicked her ponytail: "No problem!" Even if you advance to the Gold Rank during the adventure, I have the courage to bet with you! ”

Ji Ran just smiled at Anya's words and didn't say anything. In fact, being promoted to the gold rank is indeed his goal.

Only by becoming a golden rank can he truly stand among the powerhouses on this continent. At that time, he can be regarded as having preliminarily completed his ideals and mastered his own destiny! (To be continued......)
