Chapter 341: Goodbye (5000 words)
By the time Joshua and Ciri arrived at the Falosi Mansion, it was late at night.
"Children of Chaos, please forgive us for leaving so hastily."
Elder Sefaun slowly came to Qiao Xiu's side and said to Qiao Xiu.
"I expected your departure, but I want to know where you want to build a new home?"
Qiao Xiu's gaze swept over the indoor garden, and he quickly caught the figure of the Falosi flower.
Caroli seemed to have something to say to Josiu, but after seeing Elder Sephaon and Priest Olanka next to her, she didn't choose to come forward to answer at this time.
"The Mother of the Daughter of the Forest is willing to give us refuge, so it must be somewhere in the territory of Falosi." Elder Sefaun's gaze also followed Qiao Xiu to Jia Luoli, "When the sacred tree withered, I thought that our clan would have to spend hundreds of years in endless darkness before we could see the dawn brought by the sprouting of the sacred tree again, but with the help of you, the children of chaos, the sacred tree was rejuvenated in just one month, which is a kindness that our clan cannot repay in words. ”
Qiao Xiu could hear the respectful emotion in Elder Sephaon's voice, but Qiao Xiu was not good at such formal conversations.
As Josiu pondered how to reply to the Grand Druid, Elder Sephaon took out an arrow and handed it to Josiu.
"This is a token of our clan." Elder Sephaon said, "The father of the Daughter of the Forest, Duke Kuroki, also had an identical token, which means that we will always consider you an ally, the Children of Chaos. ”
Does this count as brushing the prestige of the Darkwood Elves into worship?
Qiao Xiu held the arrow that shone with a pale green light, the surface was engraved with a large number of inscriptions of natural systems, and the surface of the arrow was also inlaid with an emerald green original crystal, which looked not as simple as an ordinary bow and arrow.
"You've worked a miracle, Child of Chaos." Elder Sephaon continued.
"A miracle?" Qiao Xiu pondered the tip of the arrow, "Elder Sefarn, what if I told you that I was still not satisfied with the current growth rate of the World Tree? ”
Qiao Xiu's answer caused the elven elder, who could be described by the word 'ancient', to be slightly silent for a moment, and he glanced at the priest of Orlanca, and once again saw the same emotion in the other party's eyes, which was surprise.
"We used to think that there was a limit to the growth rate of the sacred tree, and it was a laughable 'extravagant hope' to see the sacred tree sprout in a few years, but the appearance of you, the child of chaos, has made our extravagant hope a reality, and has changed our outdated perception again and again." Elder Sephaon leaned down slightly towards Qiao Xiu, this was a 'waiting for orders' action, "If you have any other ways to make the sacred tree grow faster, please say it." ”
"Don't be so solemn, my next commission is not to let you go to an epic mission such as slaying dragons, I just have two simple requirements next."
Josiu raised a finger, and the pointed ears of the Orlanka priest and Elder Sephaon twitched slightly, their attention in a state of intense concentration.
"First protect Caroli, if the guys in the Inquisition know that your sacred tree has 'survived', they will definitely not mind continuing to extinguish it, if that Phalosi flower withers before it fully blooms, then it will be for all of humanity... Or rather, the whole world is a loss. Qiao Xiu raised his second finger again, "The second is to let that elven priest of Luvita continue to learn vocal knowledge, whether it is to find them a teacher in Falosi, of course, it is better to have my contractor Skeleton Gong as her mentor, her talent should not be buried in the forest." Qiao Xiu said.
"I'll convey it to Luvita, but... Children of Chaos: I don't think Luvita has the same singing voice as those human operas. ”
The priests of Orlanka have their own self-confidence in this regard, and the singing voice of the Darkwood Elf priests is indeed no worse than that of the opera artists of Falossi.
"Luvita's singing is really good, but as a singer, it's not enough for her to be able to sing." Qiao Xiu glanced at Luvita, who was staying with Caroli in the distance, and said, "She also has to be able to write her own songs." ”
"A song of your own? I'll let Luvita try it. ”
When the priest of Olanka said this, she had committed many of the precepts of the Darkwood Elves, and after becoming the priest of the Sacred Tree, the Maiden of the Darkwood Elves could not do anything else for the rest of her life, and she had to serve the World Tree until she died.
But when the Black Wood Elves ushered in the apocalyptic disaster, it was this demon who came to their aid, if the Priest of Olanka was the writer of the history of the Black Wood Elves, then Qiao Xiu was no less than a messenger of the god of nature in this period of history.
Josiu's conversation with Elder Sephaon ended quickly, and when they left, Caroli pulled Luvita and ran over.
"Mr. Qiao Xiu! Can you help Luvita set up camp? Her camp is sure to be very lively. Caroli no longer had the restraint of the first meeting when she talked to Josiu, but Luvita still looked a little uneasy when she stood in front of Josiu.
"Camp? Wait a minute. ”
Qiao Xiu took into account the limit of the Magic Net server, and did not open the camp function to the outside world, and there are very few Magic Net users who have camps.
Carolie is one of them, the second most popular camp is Belle's camp, followed by Tylene, and a gray and white owl camp with just over 10,000 followers.
Josiu opened the interface of the magic web, and soon made Luvita the fifth person with the right to use the 'camp'.
"It's already possible, Luvita, you open the magic net and click in to have a look."
The black wood elf opened the interface of the camp according to Qiao Xiu's instructions, and soon entered his own personal camp, everything in it was still empty, everything was blank.
Luvita had seen Caroli's camp, and there were nearly a thousand messages written by Caroli, most of which were about Caroli's mood that day and her thoughts on a new thing.
And even the simplest one, 'It's already midnight, so that my mother doesn't blame me, I should go to sleep, good night, everyone.'" This kind of greeting message will also have nearly thousands of replies below.
This made Luvita look a little envious, but looking at her camp, the number of people who paid attention to it was only two.
These two are still the friendship attention of Caroli and Qiao Xiu, and the content on it is also empty.
"Anyway, post the first camp message first, and then change your avatar by the way, just use this photo!"
Caroli sent the previous photo directly to Luvita's web desktop, and then began to teach Luvita how to send the photo online.
"First you have to pinch the leaves of the World Tree, otherwise the transmission speed will be unbearably slow, but just hold my hand for now."
This is the most sobering thing that Caroli has done since becoming a resident of the World Tree, and that is that she doesn't need to think about 'speed' at all when she uses the magic web.
"Wait, Caroli......"
Qiao Xiu, who had been watching from the sidelines, interrupted Caroli and Luvita's movements.
"Luvita, you're just going to transfer the picture directly to the caster's forum servers, uh... Just click the upload button. Qiao Xiu pointed to the upload button on the interface of Luvita's Magic Net, "I want to test how fast the connection speed of the Magic Net can be after growth." ”
Luvita clicked the upload button as Qiao Xiu instructed, and the upload speed was really very slow as Caroli said, and the photo that Caroli had taken of her was finally uploaded after more than ten seconds.
"Is it close to between 50kb and 100kb? Sure enough, it's still too slow. Qiao Xiu estimated the theoretical peak of the current magic net, but it was still slow enough to make Qiao Xiu sigh.
"Is that still slow? Mr. Qiao Xiu, if I used to use a photo on the caster forum, I would have to wait more than ten minutes without the leaves of the World Tree. ”
In the eyes of the Flower of Fallosi, who had never experienced what a 'fiber optics' was, this speed was already the speed of light!
"It's very slow, the inscription transmission speed of the magic net I expected can complete the transmission of this photo in a second or two, and there is no problem in watching movies on the magic net at that time."
"Movie ......" Jia Luoli knew that movies are actually composed of countless consecutive photos under Qiao Xiu's popular science, but how many pictures are a huge amount of data.
"Now let's turn the conversation to the camp, Luvita, do you want the first camp message in your life?" Qiao Xiu turned his head and asked the black wood elf.
Hearing Qiao Xiu's question, Luvita also thought for a long time, she had been thoroughly familiar with the operation of the magic net during this time in Nolan, and she was also very smooth in typing with the virtual keyboard.
But she had just edited a paragraph, and it didn't take long for her to delete it all in an instant, as hesitant as if she were standing on a stage with a large number of humans watching for the first time.
"If you can't think of any chicken soup for the soul, you just need to say goodbye very simply." Qiao Xiu reminded her.
"Chicken soup?" Caroli and Luvita couldn't understand the meaning of Josieu's strange word.
"Uh..." Qiao Xiu glanced at Ciri who was eating dinner in the distance, this time should be explained by the spellcaster lady, but today she was busy helping Qiao Xiu draw some concept maps, so she didn't have much time to eat, so Qiao Xiu didn't bother her.
"Anyway, don't care so much." Qiao Xiu said.
Luvita silently listened to Qiao Xiu's reminder, her fingertips touched the virtual keyboard again, and then the first camp message in the life of the Miss Blackwood Elf appeared on the caster's forum.
'Thank you Nolan for your support. ’
This is a very short message, along with a photo of Luvita attached.
Luvita regretted it in an instant when she sent this message, and she felt that she should say more words of thanks......
But this regret did not last long, because no one replied to her message at all, and the number of followers in her camp was only two, and it was not as follows as Miss Caroli, which had more than 100,000 followers, so it was natural that there would be no reply in a short time.
But soon, the number of responses from only two people suddenly rose to seventeen, and then jumped from seventeen to hundreds, and many replies began to appear below.
'Is Miss Luvita leaving so soon?' 'Respondent: Grey and White Owl.
'No! I can't accept it! 'Respondent: Song of Asakimori.
"Jia... Miss Caroli. ”
Luvita watched the enthusiasm from the people of Nolan fall into a state of helplessness again, and she flipped through one comment after another a little awkwardly.
"They should all be your fans, so let's reply to their messages a little." Caroli looked at Luvita's expression of surprise, remembering herself when she first came into contact with the magic net camp, and then Caroli remembered something and reminded her: "Of course, there will be some guys with malicious intentions in it, just press the button below to delete it." ”
"Hmm."
Then the Darkwood Elf girl began her first trip to the camp in her life.
After a while of Caroli's guidance, Luvita was able to mingle with the people visiting the camp on her own, and Caroli had time to focus on Josiu.
"Mr. Qiao Xiu, this... It was a brief reunion. ”
Caroli casually picked up two glasses full of wine from the long table next to her, and handed one of them to Qiao Xiu.
"Miss Carolie can stay in Nolan if she so chooses." Qiao Xiu took the wine glass handed over by Caroli and said.
"I wanted to stay too, but my mother's situation was so worrying that I had to go back to my father's funeral."
Caroli's expression became a little gloomy, completely missing the cheerfulness she had just had when she had communicated with Luvita.
This Flower of Phalosi's heart is actually as heavy as the Blackwood Elves, not only has she suffered the incident of the Blackwood Forest Fire, but even her own family has suffered unimaginable changes.
How hard the sudden death of her father hit this little girl, maybe only Caroli herself knows.
However, even so, the Flower of Phalosi behaved much stronger than the average little girl.
"Sorry for making you laugh." Caroli clearly knew her mission, in addition to reviving the World Tree of the Darkwood Elves, she came to Nolan for another purpose.
Caroli's burgundy pupils stared at the Chaos Demon in front of her, and the gloomy expression she had just now disappeared in an instant, replaced by a smile that was enough to make any man's heart move.
That's right... She must take the place of her own mother and maintain a good relationship with this Chaos Demon... Partnership.
"Anyone can be sad, and there's nothing funny." Qiao Xiu said as he held Caroli's glass, and easily snatched the glass from Caroli's hand.
"Mr. Qiao Xiu, you ......" Jia Luoli was a little puzzled by the meaning of Qiao Xiu's behavior.
"There's a law in my hometown that minors are not allowed to drink alcohol." Qiao Xiu put both glasses of wine on the table, then bent down slightly and said to Caroli, "Your mother must not want to see you drinking. ”
“……”
Qiao Xiu's words made Caroli's brows twitch slightly, and this Fallosi flower clearly knew that proper etiquette must be maintained in such social occasions.
If it were some unfamiliar nobles, Caroli would definitely smile and deal with it, but Qiao Xiu's words...
"I'm sixteen years old! I'm already an adult in my country! ”
Caroli was a little unconvinced, and her unpredicted chest was replaced, and the smile just now was replaced by a somewhat unhappy expression.
"Pardon me, how about using juice instead?" Qiao Xiu said.
"Hmm..." Jia Luoli took the juice handed over by Qiao Xiu with some displeasure, and stared straight at Qiao Xiu with burgundy pupils for a long time, and then the two suddenly couldn't help laughing.
"Mr. Qiao Xiu, I have attended so many banquets, and you are the first person who will say to your face that I am a child." Caroli said.
"It's just telling the truth."
Qiao Xiu raised the glass in his hand and touched it slightly with Jia Luoli, and at this moment, a familiar voice sounded beside Qiao Xiu.
"That regulation seems to be called the Law on the Protection of Minors, I remember you mentioned it." The spellcaster, Miss Ciri, didn't know when she appeared next to Qiao Xiu and said.
"The Law on the Protection of Minors? What is that? ”
Ciri's words aroused Caroly's interest, and everything Josiu did made her very interested, whether it was film or television, so Caroli was also interested in Joshew herself.
"Uh... Don't worry about that, speaking of which, Caroli, I have something for you before you leave. ”
A heavy envelope appeared in Qiao Xiu's hand, this letter was so big that he had to hold it with both hands, and the contents inside looked very heavy...... Looks like a huge package.
"What is this?" Caroli seemed to have guessed something, and the expression of surprise instantly overflowed her face, and she wanted to cheer loudly, but in the end she lowered her voice, "Is it the script of the new movie?" ”
"That's right." Qiao Xiu nodded to confirm Caroli's suspicions, and then forwarded the heavy 'letter' to Caroli.
"The next film is a 'big production', and I don't think I can achieve the desired effect with my ability, so I need Mrs. Nishizawa's help, or rather... The whole of Falosi helped. ”
What kind of film needs to be shot with the help of a country?
Caroli didn't ask specifically, but put the glass on the table, and hugged the letter handed by Qiao Xiu like a treasure chest full of gold coins and jewels.
"I'll pass it on to my mother." Caroli promised in a solemn tone.
The dinner lasted until late, and at the end of the day, Tyren dragged Belle to mingle with the Darkwood Elves.
Johew and Ciri stood in the corner looking at the view from the indoor garden.
"Is it really okay for you to give that script directly to that nobleman?" Ciri glanced at her finger, which was stained with some blue paint, all of which she had applied to the concept art of the script.
"Of course, no problem, I've always wondered if I should make this film at this time, after all, this is not your average big production."
Josh still has the skills to shoot the film, and Josh isn't worried that the idea of the film will be plagiarized by anyone, and Mrs. Nishizawa is not the kind of person who is short-sighted.
