Chapter 7: Jack's Oath
"Brother Jack, you're well-informed, can you tell me about it? ”
Ryan ran over excitedly, since he recognized that Ray really left, he found that in a few years, Ray was all he had, he was used to Ray's life, habits, and orders, he never thought about the feeling of Ray's absence, Ray's departure took away all of him, and he didn't know what else he could do without Ray. He thinks that little Jack is very powerful, he can do his own things energetically without his parents by his side, he thinks that Uncle Chris and Aunt May are very powerful, they can have their own favorite things, he thinks that everyone he meets today is very powerful, they have their own things to do, and he himself is like an empty shell, he doesn't know what to do, so he needs to listen, he needs to think, he needs to seek, so he longs to know more.
"Of course. ”
Little Jack said proudly.
"Don't look at my usual laziness, I know a lot of things. ”
It's rare to find an obedient little brother, and the little brother is so interested in listening to himself.
"I was calculated by two despicable people today, my head is a little dizzy, there are too many people in the city today, and I have slept for so long, and I am a little late to go out to play, so I will tell you what I know. ”
Little Jack cleared his throat and began.
"Generally, in a city as big as Wanglei City, there will be churches, monasteries, training grounds, etc., collections and other buildings, and the people in them are serious, and there are often people sitting there with their eyes closed for a day, which is not fun; ”
Jack said, with an unknown smile. Ryan always felt that this laughter was very similar to that of Uncle Chris.
"The most interesting place is the training ground, the place is big, there are many people, and there are all kinds of wooden stakes, you can take a weapon and chop on it, the most enjoyable, the most boring, has to be the library, which is full of shelves as high as the city wall, and the shelves are full of books, and they have a headache when they look at them, and they have thrown me there the most. ”
Jack clutched his forehead and acted like he had a headache.
"And what, and what, so many books, what are the books written. ”
Ryan hadn't heard enough of what Jack had to say about the library, and wasn't very interested in what Jack was going to talk about the training grounds.
"There are so many that I don't know what they are, but I sometimes flip through them when I'm bored in them, and I like the storybooks with illustrations the most. ”
Jack saw that Ryan's eyes were full of anticipation, so he had to continue talking.
"I have seen in a general history of the continent that there is a history of our world, saying that our world does not know why, more than 5,000 years ago, a devastating war broke out, the war tore apart the earth, dried up the sea, obscured the sky, the continent was devastated, everything was almost destroyed, all races were wiped out by the war, in this critical moment, all races gave up hatred and prejudice, united to resist this disaster. I don't know how long it took for the disaster to gradually subside, and the world is no longer the original world, some places were originally high mountains and mountains, now become deep sea lakes, some places were originally surrounded by forests and later became dead deserts, some places were originally near the lake and sea, and later became the highest altitude plateau, the original mountains were left little, some fell into the bottom of the sea, some became land, the land was full of dangers, the magic beasts were everywhere, the people who survived found that the original world had been completely changed, people in order to remember the day of the disaster, abandoned the old continent era, and named the new continent Elpitzer continent, with the new calendar year, January 1 of each year is the epoch day。 ”
When Jack said that the place where the water was full of mountains, he also sat up and danced and gestured, and Ryan was frightened by the catastrophe described by Little Jack, and his body was a little trembling, so he hurriedly ran to the bed and wrapped himself in the quilt next to Little Jack to feel better.
"Haha, look at what scared you, don't worry, where we are now is an empire in the north-east of the Elpitzer continent, and the water can't flood here. ”
"I once heard the troubadour say something that is not recorded in the tavern where my father was drinking: why is this continent of Elpitzer vast, and our empire is only a small part of this continent, and there are a few more outside a country as large as ours. Because of the good geographical location here, there are not many wars, so many people from other places have slowly migrated here to settle here, like our family. The troubadours said that there were other races besides us humans on this magical continent, such as dwarves, gnomes, and elves, which are not mentioned in these books. ”
Jack yawned.
"We're in the southeast, so there's not much chance of seeing any race other than the dwarves, oh yes, and the abominable goblins, you can see them everywhere. ”
"Time is money, my friend!"
Every goblin will say a word to you and cheat you out of all your money." Little Jack said angrily.
Ryan wanted to ask why, and little Jack didn't say it.
"But once when I went into the city, I really saw a dwarf tribe on the street, oh my God, it's shorter than a six-year-old kid of mine, and it looks like a baby, but it has a long beard on its face, and it looks so funny. But I heard that the gnomes are very smart, they have been dealing with machinery all their lives, and I heard my father say that the gnomes live in a big metal house, and even their mounts are machines, and they run up and make a 'boom, boom' sound, faster than a war horse. ”
"It should be fake, a piece of mechanical iron, it sinks faster than a stone when it is put into the water, and it is difficult to push it on the ground, how can it run faster than a horse. ”
Little Jack replied to himself. Little Ryan felt that Jack knew more than he did, and nodded in agreement.
"Eh, legend has it that someone in the misty forest in the southwest of our country has seen a forest elf, and I heard that each of the forest elves has a long and graceful body, which is super good-looking. Hehe, to tell you, my ambition is to go on an adventure in the Misty Forest when I grow up, and I want to see the legendary beautiful forest elves with my own eyes. ”
Looking at Little Jack's starry eyes, Little Lane glanced at him with disgust.
"Don't look at me like that, I'll be embarrassed. ”
Wiping the saliva from the corners of his mouth, Little Jack changed into a comfortable position on the bed.
"But each of them is a master of archery, and if you want them to like it, you have to be strong. ”
Jack said distressedly.
"It's decided, I'm going to get up ten or twenty minutes early every morning after I go back this time, no, half an hour. Train hard, and when I grow up, I will become stronger and stronger, and become a great powerhouse, so that I can get the favor of my elf sisters. ”
Jack gritted his teeth and counted his sleep hours with difficulty with his fingers.
Worthy of Uncle Chris's son. Ryan thought with a black line on his head.
Speaking of archery, Little Lane thought of Ray, and Ray's archery skills were also very powerful. I don't know how to compare it to the elves.
"I just heard someone say they need to wake up early. Voices outside interrupted their thoughts.
