Chapter 7
But for now, she still has to concentrate on doing her own actions, and sure enough, as Teacher He said, just these few words, plus the iron ring on her wrist, she already feels a little struggling.
In the radiant room of the Star Temple, Anrais stood behind Loulith, because the High Priest was going on a ritual at this time, and he was not allowed to disturb him.
The glow room feels like stepping into the night, with unknown gem-like things floating above the ceiling, like twinkling stars in the night, and at the end of the room is the astrological table, and a huge crystal ball on the square table is dazzling, which also gives the dark room a touch of light.
Lulith held the phantom night star guard and waved it lightly a few times, and the ceiling conjured up the shape of the night sky, as if a point of the real starry sky was presented in front of her, and with the continuous waving of the sea of stars, the starry sky was also constantly changing, so after a while, Lulith's hand gradually put down, and the stars in the sky gradually disappeared, and she slowly turned to look at Anlaith.
It has been nearly 6,000 years since the founding of the Holy Islamic Kingdom, and since the founding of the 6,000-year state, there has been this high priest, who has never been replaced, that is, the high priest has lived for 7,000 years so far.
It's an incredible thing. The general life span of human beings on the continent of Neotis should be 500 years, but the astrology family where the high priest belongs has a lifespan of 10,000 years, and there is only one astrologer in each generation, and after 10,000 years, the soul leaves the body and comes to a newborn baby, which is the next generation of astrologers, they have no memory of their previous lives, but they have a mission that cannot be ignored, and each astrologer has an extraordinary ability from the time of birth, can astrological divination, and knows all the fortunes in the world.
The human race on the continent of Neotis should have a history of more than two million years, and there are more than two hundred astrologers. It is said that when he was more than a thousand years old, the astrologer met the first king of the kingdom of Saint Yi by chance, and with his extraordinary ability, he helped the first king establish the kingdom of Saint and I, and was named the high priest, and has been in the star temple of the city of Phantom Night to predict the good fortune of the kingdom of Saint I.
Speaking of the word "Phantom Night", the astrological staff held by Lulith was called Phantom Night, hence the name of the city.
Lulith in front of her was dressed in a white astrological robe, embroidered with the shape of several stars, shimmering slightly, her hair was the color of snow, scattered long and even spread on the ground, making it impossible to detect its true length, and there was a mark of a star on her forehead, symbolizing the identity of the head of the astrological family, but she looked only one hundred and twenty-five years old at this time.
The astrologer will gradually change their appearance as they get older, the first 5,000 years are gradually becoming mature, each thousand years changing by 25 years, the oldest age is only 175 years old, and then gradually becoming younger. In Lulith's case, she was between 7,000 and 8,000 years old and 125 years old, and then gradually became 100 years old.
Everyone who has met Lulith will have the feeling that she is the most beautiful woman they have ever seen in their lives, without exception. However, astrologers are required to be desireless, and it is as if they have been cursed, no one will fall in love with an astrologer, and astrologers will not fall in love with anyone, since Lulith came to the Star Temple, she has been alone in the Radiance Room for thousands of years, and has never taken a step.
Anlais didn't lose his mind for long, he saluted Lulith and said, "Lord Lulith." ”
The Charles family, where Anles belongs, is the only one in charge of communicating with Lulith in the thousands of years since the founding of the Kingdom of Andovia, and Anles is also the only person in the country who has seen Lulith, and he comes here once a week. The latter raised his hand slightly to him, signaling that he would not be polite.
Anlais straightened up and continued: "I have come here to ask you something, a few days ago, His Highness Thorold accidentally fell while practicing equestrianism, and today he woke up and lost his memory. May I ask if the great calamity of your current Highness has come? ”
Speaking of which, it has only been eight years since Lulith uttered that prophecy.
Lulith didn't think about it, and replied to him directly: "That's right, last night's image showed that the star Jiayao, which symbolizes His Highness Thorold, suddenly fell, but another star flew from another continent to take its place. Ann, do you know what that means? ”
Anles was amazed. The star represents the soul of a person, the movement of each star symbolizes the fate of the person it represents, and the fall of the star represents the death of the person, but this position will be replaced by another star, which means that ......
"Could it be ......" Anles hesitated and didn't say any more, not sure if it was the way he thought.
Lulith confirmed his thoughts, "That's right, Thorrod's body has changed a soul at this time, I think, in fact, you should feel that he has changed at the first glance of him." ”
Anlais was stunned. That's the case, when I saw His Highness for the first time today, I felt that he looked very different from usual, His Highness in the past was weak, and he was always timid and didn't dare to look at their eyes, but this time the person obviously had an indescribable oppressive aura, his face was as cold as ice, and his eyes showed a powerful aura, at first they just thought that it was because the person had lost his memory and had a little more courage, but they didn't expect it to be because of a different person.
In an instant, countless questions came to my mind.
"So, can you tell me where the original Highness has gone? Also, why does such a soul swap happen?
Lulith sighed in a rare way: "The original Thorrod has already lost his soul, because he didn't belong here in the first place, and now it's time for him to go back." As for the soul exchange, it can only be said that this is what is destined to happen, you should remember that I said that his soul flew from another continent, that is, the world he originally lived in did not even belong to our planet. Now, because his body in that world is dead, his soul will return here. It is not time to tell the specific story of this matter now, but sooner or later it will have to be told, after all, fate cannot be changed by any of us. I think one thing you should have noticed is that this new Highness can still communicate with us in our language despite his amnesia, isn't it? ”
"Yes." Anles replied that this was what they had been wondering about.
This means that although he did not live here before, his soul should belong to our world. Wouldn't that be great? You will also find that there will be many surprises that you did not expect as you continue to teach him. Ya, I have some more things to tell you. ”
"Please command."
"First, you can tell the other three about Charles changing his soul, but at the same time tell them not to act like they've found out about it, and don't make him feel uncomfortable just like he does to Charles, understand?"
"Yes."
"Second, this decade is a critical period, I hope you can do your best to help him pass the adult examination, otherwise everything after that will not make any sense, and you will understand what I mean by then. That's all I can tell you right now. ”
Anles left the Radiance Room, but Loulith turned to face the Star Terrace, holding the Star Sea in front of her with both hands, and closed her eyes.
Really, thousands of years, King, we can finally meet again.
On the wall behind the crystal ball is a huge portrait of a handsome man with red hair and red eyes, who at the moment seems to be looking down on the world with the momentum of looking at the world.
An Lais, who was walking on the road, thought of what he had heard in the Star Hall before, Rao still felt unbelievable, but he had to accept it.
It's a little sad, although the previous highness was not favored by any of them, they were only ordered to come to teach him, but they never thought that he would leave this world so suddenly.
Anles was still very understanding of Lulith's concealment on certain issues, after all, astrologers really can't divulge too much of the heavens, and all they can do now is to try their best to teach the "new" Highness, hoping that his learning ability will be better than the previous one.
Shen Xinghe sat in the water for a while, feeling that the fatigue on his body had really subsided a lot, he raised his body and took the cloth towel on the screen to wipe his body, but when he lowered his head, he found that his hair was floating on the water, which was really like a red lotus blooming in the water.
There has never been a moment when he feels that the time is so long, his consciousness is gradually blurred, the light and shadow in front of him are confused, as if the next moment is about to end the torture, and it seems to be endless, Shen Xinghe always feels that he is going to fall to the ground in the next moment, sweat unconsciously flows all over his body, and even slips down from his eyebrows and eyelashes.
How long will it take? ……
Finally—
"That's it." Suddenly remembering such a voice in his ears, Shen Xinghe couldn't even hear the meaning of that voice clearly, but his tense nerves relaxed in an instant.
Unable to support the weight of his body any longer, Shen Xinghe slowly fell backwards......
The Commander's Camp was located in the center of the camp, the largest of all the camps, and there was more than one person guarding it outside, and the two werewolves at the gate also saluted Henin Zhou like the horses before them.
This werewolf is on the ground with two hind feet, their weapons are axes and shovels, compared to the centaurs, the whole body of the werewolf is very wolf-like, their hands are no different from wolves, their faces are human-like, but they also have ears that belong to wolves. The height of these two werewolves is also similar to that of Heningzhou, and their bodies are quite beastly characteristic.
A werewolf opened the tent, and He Ningzhou asked Shen Xinghe to go in first, and he followed behind.
Facing the gate in the camp was a bookcase, and now there was no one sitting behind it, Shen Xinghe thought that the position must belong to the person behind him; Underneath the bookcase were four chairs, all of which were sat on them, and their appearance was just as He Ningzhou said, two humans, two orcs. There are weapon racks on both sides of the camp, on which are long knives, spears and other weapons.
The four people in the camp all stood up when they saw Shen Xinghe and them coming in, and one of the humans said, "Why did the commander and His Highness come here at this time?" ”
Shen Xinghe knew that this person knew himself. He Ningzhou replied: "It's nothing, just take His Highness down to the camp to have a look." ”
Shen Xinghe didn't know if these generals knew about his "amnesia", but it seemed that this kind of thing didn't need to be known to everyone, He Ningzhou didn't introduce the four people to him, and casually chatted with them and left.
On the way from the main tent to the camp gate, Shen Xinghe asked what the army of Hening Prefecture usually did.
He Ningzhou seemed to be helpless, "Theoretically, the army responsible for garrisoning the city is to maintain order in the city on the one hand, and to defend against foreign enemies on the other hand. However, the patrol of the city in Phantom Night City is usually the responsibility of Nozomi's army, and there are few wars in Phantom Night City, so in recent years, they have only done drills every day, and they have also done exercises with other armies from time to time. ”
"Yes," Shen Xinghe looked at him, "It seems that the country is so peaceful that the army is useless." ”
He Ningzhou smiled, "You can't say that, battles are generally protruding, and no one will greet you in advance, so you can't relax in the slightest bit of training." By the way," he remembered one thing, "don't you know those four people?" In fact, when you were first sent to Phantom Night City by the King, those four generals came to visit you, so they recognized you. Now I'll tell you their names. ”
Shen Xinghe nodded.
After he finished speaking, Shen Xinghe said that he remembered it, and then asked him with interest: "I know that there is an air force in China, can they really fly?" ”
"Of course, how can you call it an air force if you can't fly?"
"And what do they fly with?" Shen Xinghe asked eagerly, this country should not make something similar to "airplane".
The man seemed to be speechless for his curious baby's appearance, "There are two kinds of flying tools, one is called 'Divine Eagle Machine', and the other is called 'Divine Magpie Machine', among which the Divine Eagle is more advanced, only nobles can use it, and the other is for civilians, and the Divine Eagle is much stronger than the Divine Magpie in terms of speed and durability." ”
"I really want to see what they look like......" Shen Xinghe said with infinite fascination.
"That's easy." At this time, they had already walked out of the camp, He Ningzhou motioned for Shen Xinghe to get on the horse first, and after both of them sat on the horseback, the man continued briskly: "The air force is under the command of Bao, you can persuade him to take you to have a look." ”
The man urged the horse to embark on the return journey, but the speed was not very fast, so Shen Xinghe could still turn around and continue to talk to him, "Bao is teaching magic, is it really as magical as the legend?" "It's hard to imagine that something that used to be only seen in books and on TV is now within easy reach.
"What does legendary magic look like?" The man smiled and said, "But this is what Bao wants to tell you, you just have to ask him." Fortunately, we don't need to explain much about our martial arts in advance, otherwise it would have taken nearly a class just to introduce you, and I guess Ann answered a lot of your questions before giving you a formal lesson. ”
When this person spoke, he showed incomparable happiness and incomparable sympathy for those two people, so angry that Shen Xinghe gritted his teeth, could it be that he liked to come to this world where he didn't know anything to trouble them to solve his doubts! ……
Shen Xinghe was angry and stopped talking, and the person didn't speak, the two of them were speechless all the way to the place where they had learned martial arts before, Shen Xinghe saw that his horse was still there, but there was more than one horse at the scene, and there was one more snow-white one, and there was a person in a white military uniform standing next to him.
Did Paulrot already arrive?
He Ningzhou stopped his horse and went down to the ground first, Shen Xinghe still looked a little depressed behind him, the man walked over and said hello to Paul Roth, who looked at the two of them with a smile, "He Ningzhou, where are you and Your Highness?" ”
"I went to see the Orc Army," replied the man, "Your Highness is still very interested in your Air Force, and I think you can spend an hour and twenty minutes on the basics of magic in your two-hour course, and take him on a tour of the Air Force for another forty minutes." Because," he said, "he doesn't know anything now, you know." "He looked like he's been in a trance.
I want you to talk more! Shen Xinghe glared at him angrily.
Paulo nodded, "I know, Your Highness can hand it over to me." ”
"Very well," the man looked relaxed, turned and walked towards his horse, and naturally looked at Shen Xinghe as he passed, not caring about the anger in his eyes. The man took out two more rings from his horse's bag and handed them to Shen Xinghe, who continued to stare at him.
"Remember to bring these two, I will ask you every day if you can still feel the weight of the four rings, when you can't feel it, it's time to increase the weight, don't be lazy." After speaking, he reached out and patted his head, smiling very dotingly.
Shen Xinghe pursed his lips, thinking to himself who wants to be lazy.
"Alright, I'll go first, we'll see you at lunch." The man got on his horse and waved to them.
"Goodbye." Paulrot agreed, and the man sped off and quickly disappeared from their sight.
Shen Xinghe lowered his head and looked at the iron ring in his hand, feeling helpless and a little frustrated, he couldn't help but sigh lightly, this is to be worn on his feet, but it's not good to take off his shoes and wear them now, it's so unsightly......
Paulrot shook his head at his tangled appearance and walked up to him, "Your Highness can wait until noon to go back before wearing it, now I'll help you keep it first." Each of us wears this thing at the beginning of learning martial arts, and although it will be hard at first, we will gradually feel that it is worth the money. As he spoke, he put the two rings on his wrists.
Shen Xinghe nodded, raised his eyes and looked at him, "Speaking of which, have I worn this before?" "It doesn't feel like it, if that's the case, the ten pounds must be the same as not wearing them.
The man blinked, as if wondering if he wanted to tell the truth, "How to say it, it stands to reason that this thing should have been worn since the age of twenty-five when he first learned martial arts, but...... You're still too heavy to wear at the age of eighty, so your martial arts have always been at the elementary level. ”
Shen Xinghe was embarrassed: "No, ......"
"Alright," Paulrot comforted him, "Your Highness will work hard from now on, and don't forget that where there is a will, there is a way, and I am sure you will have no problem." Let's get down to class now. Actually, He Ningzhou is right, I really have a lot of things to tell you in advance, and it doesn't matter if you don't start formal practice today. As for the Air Force, when I finish talking about the basics, I'll take Your Highness down to see it. ”
Shen Xinghe nodded, "That's bothering you." ”
"Your Highness is gracious." The man began to speak, "Magic is divided into two types of attacks, and healing, and each series is divided into seven attributes: wind, light, darkness, fire, water, wood, and earth. Everyone has their own attributes that they are good at, called talents. So how do you determine what kind of talent you have? The man said, holding up one of his fingers, "Your Highness, please look." ”
Shen Xinghe looked at his fingers carefully, and saw that water droplets gradually gathered around his fingers, which meant ......
"You're from the water system?" Shen Xinghe was surprised.
"That's right." The man smiled, put down his hand, and the water vapor naturally dispersed, "When you activate the magic of your own attributes, the elements that belong to that system will automatically gather around you. He Ningzhou's fingers will be shrouded in black mist, so it is dark. Ann's finger will be surrounded by gas, indicating that it is the wind system. And Nozomi's fingers will have nothing, which of course does not mean that he has no talent, but that he belongs to the wood line. If there are plants around him, when he is lucky, you will find that those plants can be automatic without wind. In addition, the natural fingers of the light system will glow, flames will emerge around the fire system, and the earth system will cause the earth to tremble. ”
"And which attribute should I have?" Shen Xinghe raised a finger curiously, of course, because he couldn't urge the magic power, there was no change in his hand.
"Now that His Highness has magic power in his body, please close your eyes." Shen Xinghe did as he said, "Try to concentrate all your attention, you should be able to see a spot of light in the center of your brain, and you use your mind to urge him to slowly slide down to his neck, and then from his shoulders to his fingertips." After that, you can open your eyes. ”
Shen Xinghe did see that point of light, but it was very small, and the process of pushing it to his fingers was not to mention how laborious, why was it so easy to see that person do it before? Finally moving the point of light to his fingertips, Shen Xinghe opened his eyes and saw that his index finger was glowing slightly.
"I'm from the light system?" Shen Xinghe blinked, and the moment he relaxed, the light on his fingertips disappeared.
"Not bad." The man nodded, "The light attribute is a very good attribute, the light attribute in the healing system is the best of all attributes, and the ranking in the attack is also good." Speaking of which, in addition to cultivating one's own innate attributes, a person can also choose to cultivate other attributes, of course, this is not as easy as before. There is really no record in the history of our country who can cultivate all the attributes to the extreme, and the most powerful is the first generation of kings, but his dark and water systems have not reached the top. ”
