Volume 1: Walking on the Brink of Destruction and Salvation Chapter 4: The Unexpected
There is no more misleading exclamation when you first take it out. After all, not long ago, Yu Dongshui was violently beaten by the chief guard because of this thing.
But curiosity still made this brain-dead level viscount excited again: "This is it?"
Yu Dongshui nodded incomprehensibly, took out one of the small balls and placed it on the palm of his right hand, and then held it whole:
"As you can see, these little balls in my hand are today's props. β
"It's not going to disappear out of thin air or something, right? I'm tired of watching, I'm tired of watching, let's disperse!"
A man behind the viscount deliberately made a noise to grab the oiran in order to wait for someone to make an appointment with him.
And what he was carrying in the bag around his waist at this time was gold and silver jewelry that even the viscount would be shocked when he saw it.
"Yes, yes, let's disperse, I beg you, next time! I will definitely ask you to perform next time!"
Others also responded, all of them "with ghosts".
The Magic King just smiled and shook his head.
At this time, his hand holding the ball rose, and the expression on his face began to become more and more solemn.
The viscount seemed to see something strange, his neck stretched out, and his face full of fat was squeezed out, like a turtle sticking out of its shell!
After a while, the Magic King suddenly opened his eyes, and almost didn't laugh at the appearance of the Viscount's glans turtle brain.
"Hold on, hold on!" After more than ten years of professionalism, he quickly adjusted his mentality, straightened his expression, and then shouted:
"Up!"
While the viscount shrank his head in fright, the right hand he had been holding pushed slightly upwards as it unfolded, and the small metal ball instantly left his hand and came into the air.
"Ahh
The firewood house not far from the temple......
Rumble!!!
After hearing the frightened screams of the main hall, a figure broke through the door for the first time, and its vigorous figure shone in the sunlight.
In less than a few breaths, he crossed a trail of more than ten meters and burst in through the back door!
"Little cub, I know you're uneasy and kind!"
He took a plank from his bodyβit had just been smashed through the wooden door, and had been inserted into his body or stuck in his clothes because of the sharp nailsβand hastened to the main hall.
He knew very well who had caused the commotion just now;
It was because of that person that he was confined in the firewood room!
At the moment of coming to the main hall around the corner, he raised the plank and shouted:
"Got you, magician!"
What an impassioned proclamation, especially with his current look:
The hair stood on end with anger like a chicken coop on top of its head;
The expression is also distorted by rage, like a facial paralysis, and it also flows saliva that symbolizes freedom;
The clothes were in tatters, and a small part was stained red with blood, which was a proof of glory!
The pants also fell off due to the galloping just now, and a pair of red shorts symbolizing the indomitable spirit suddenly appeared, which made everyone present refreshed!
Of course, in order to set off the appearance of this hero, the wooden plank hanging on his body was not to be outdone, constantly slapping his whole body, like an impassioned war song!
Well, in fact, it's more like a beggar who has just been by the black boss, or the kind that has been violently beaten.
Is it important? It doesn't matter! This is a battle to defend the lord and defend the dignity of being a soldier!
The chief of the guard imagined himself as the Emperor of Eternal Life who had fought a life-and-death duel with the Grand Mage hundreds of years ago...... No, no, no, the Emperor of Immortality ended up badly.
Again, it doesn't matter!
"After I take down the enemy, the eldest lady will definitely respect me, worship me, fall in love with me, and can't stop lusting for me."
Bang!
He, heroically, fell.
Instead, it was a small metal ball that floated where the head of the guard had just been.
"I knew you were coming. Yu Dongshui played with the remaining few metal balls and looked at the chief guard who was motionless on the ground, dripping with saliva.
"Grand Magician...... You...... Hey, hey, hey...... I'm ...... Magic...... Litter...... I ......"
The Magic King looked at the stunned Viscount family again.
The viscount was stunned for a long time before he came to his senses and shouted outside the door:
"Come on...... Someone, let's take him down, okay...... Lock it up!"
After everyone present watched the chief guard leave, there was a collective silence for a moment before the magician turned his gaze to the viscount with a smile on his face: "Go on." β
On top of the previous release of two balls in a row, the Magic King made the other two balls float.
However, the time of each release became longer, and his expression became more and more solemn, and even a cold sweat broke out.
The viscount naturally discovered this detail and couldn't help but ask:
"You're not old, what's the matter? Are there any side effects of using this method?"
When the magician heard this, he smiled unknowingly - and finally asked.
"Of course, Viscount, I'm not a magician, how can I let this metal ball float in the air without paying a price?"
The magician's tone was a little solemn, and he even felt that he was going to lie down in the next second, but in fact, he had already begun to think about how to play this scene well.
Facing the Viscount's puzzled and curious eyes, he pretended to be very reluctant and smiled, and replied with a trembling voice:
"I use a very special magic trick that works like this, which makes objects float in the air. β
"However, during this period, maintaining this state is a very great drain on my mental energy......
As for why there is a cold sweat, it is purely because I pinched too hard and it hurts alive.
"That's it......" Viscount's eyes were full of respect, such a dedicated magician, he must reward him with a few more, no, dozens of imperial gold!
Yu Dongshui, an old fritter, has been walking the rivers and lakes for many years, and immediately saw through the viscount's mind and secretly laughed
"Hey, hey, it seems that this month's hard work has not been in vain, not letting me be a theater actor really buries my genius!"
"Oppose, oppose!" a prince behind the viscount suddenly spoke at this time.
"Wasting Lao Tzu's time to prostitute and trying to cheat me out of the money I was going to prostitute at that time?
"Since it consumes a lot of mental energy, why do you still have the energy to say so much? Shouldn't you be able to lie down with a single move? Explain so much to my father, it is obvious that you are selling bitter meat and cheating our family out of money! I object!"
The reason why I say "our family" is because I am afraid that if I directly name my name, I will make the viscount angry and protect this liar.
Yu Dongshui was taken aback: It makes sense!
"Hey, yo yo, kid, I didn't expect it to be you who smashed the field!"
The two of them intertwined with threatening eyes.
"Fortunately, this Magic King has been prepared!"
"Little brother, the consumption of mental power is indeed very large, but it has not reached my limit yet. β
Yu Dongshui continued to maintain his expression and tone just now, and raised his hand with a small ball left:
"Since I brought five here, I can naturally control five at a time. It's easier to talk than to control the remaining ball, right?"
The boy was stunned: It makes sense!
"Little one, fight me!"
"Wait!" The boy suddenly waved his hand: "May I ask the Magic King, is the means of floating objects based on shape or weight?"
The scheming Yu Dongshui realized that there must be some traps in this problem, but after thinking about it for a long time, he still didn't know. So I saw the trick and the trick was authentic:
"Spherical, and the greater the weight, the greater the mental energy consumed. β
"I'll see what tricks you can play. γ
"Well, okay. Childe nodded as if he had succeeded in his treacherous scheme: "Go on, Magic, Magic, King"
The name of this word made Yu Dongshui shiver in his heart, and he didn't know what tricks this little cub wanted to play.
Let's go quickly, so as not to make a fuss.
Holding the metal ball, he searched for the switchβa switch called the Miniature Silent Propeller Thruster.
That's right, this is the secret of this magic prop, although Yu Dongshui himself is confused about this device - in fact, he is confused about all the devices of that buddy, but the control is still very simple.
Now that the switch has been pressed, it stands to reason that there should be a thrust hitting his fingers like last time, as long as he holds it until the end of the play, and then he can release it directly.
But-
"Damn, no......
At this moment, the magic king's hand did not feel any thrust, no matter how he restarted the switch, it was useless, and his face began to look ugly.
Could it have been a real break just now......
Fortunately, the others didn't worry too much even if they noticed this kind of face, after all, according to the Magic King, this was just a normal phenomenon;
Moreover, this fifth suspension has reached the limit of the Magic King, and it is normal for the face to be ugly.
"Relax, Magic King, relax. The viscount said.
"Relax, brother-in-law, you're going to die, you're going to die......, you're going to die!"
The boy who raised the bar just now seemed to notice that Yu Dongshui's expression was not the same as the one he was in control just now, and laughed:
"Won't it work, will it? Magic King? You must know that my father is very disgusted with others lying to him? Boasting about himself is especially hateful, and the magician back then was no exception!"
"That ...... back then!"
Yu Dongshui hurriedly opened his eyes slightly and looked at the Viscount, only to see that the Viscount's expression gradually began to be gloomy, not as before.
"I'm going to die hastily, I'm just talking about it!"
The Magic King's spirit turned to the ball in his hand, desperately grasping at the only straw that could help him escape.
"Dude, help! For the sake of the Magic King, no, for the sake of my buddy's face, let's move! Super invincible awesome cool crazy cock bombing propeller! I don't want to die yet, there's a beautiful girl waiting for me at home! Turn up! Turn up! Please!"
Looking at the magic king who began to sweat on his forehead, Brother Gongzi teased: "Success is also floating, and defeat is also floating." β
When the viscount heard this, his face became even more unpleasant, like a volcano that was about to erupt at any moment, accumulating anger.
"Spit up, spin up, squirt buddy, squirt!" the Magic King shouted inwardly.
If it fails at this time, everything for yourself and yourself will be finished!
At the moment when he felt that the future was dark, Yu Dongshui suddenly saw something. In the depths of my own heart, at the end of that darkness......
It's like a ray of light piercing the endless darkness with a fierce momentum;
In his mind's eye, he saw the light form an extremely complex circuit, like a machine's circuitβbut far more complex than all the circuits he had ever seen combined;
The light, along this circuit, quickly came to his heart, and calmed his heart that was close to frenzy;
Then, as if sensing his own heart, the light began to extend along his arm, and with a soft aura, it gathered in the hand holding the metal ball.
The next moment, the soft feeling disappeared, as if something had left his body.
The feeling at that moment was not painful, but the body seemed to be hollowed out at that moment, and an irresistible feeling of powerlessness occupied his whole body.
It's not the same as complaining, and in the next moment, another feeling appeared in the palm of his already sweaty hand......
"What? are you stalling for time?" said Childe, who waited for a moment, to provoke the baron again.
Sure enough, the viscount seemed to have touched the final bottom line: "Someone's coming!"
"No, you can't. The viscountess said: "This guy is the ...... of the emperor who bestowed the title of magic king."
"No need to think about it. The viscount said in a deep voice: "Fan Junshou can keep me safe." β
At this moment, several guards pushed the door open - of course, there was no chief guard.
"Take it. The Viscount commanded.
"Fuck off. The Magic King suddenly spoke.
β?_?β The guards looked confused.
"ββ½β" Viscount was suddenly stunned.
"I mean......" The Magic King slowly opened his eyes and waved his hand diagonally upwards, "Get out!"
What flew out of the magic king's hand was a metal egg that had been suspended in mid-air!
"This ...... ......The guards didn't know for a moment why the baron had come in and take down the magician who was performing.
"Let's go down. The Viscount's face turned cloudy and sunny at the moment when the metal ball floated in the air, and he stepped forward with a smile to support the Magic King, who was almost about to fall.
"Yes. The guards retreated in confusion.
"Magic King, you ...... You're not old...... Are you old ...... Old and old...... Laborious...... It's too heavy!"
In the end, the viscount was not able to continue to support Dongshui because he had been pampered for too long, resulting in a generation of magic kings in this hall for the third time in close contact with the floor.
"I didn't ...... It's okay. Yu Dongshui's waist and legs were sore at this time, his energy was low, and he felt that his body was hollowed out.
Although he noticed the look of the boy "count you ruthless", Yu Dongshui didn't have the energy to fight back.
"Yo, Magic King. I'm wrong to blame you. Childe said as he clapped his hands.
"It's all said, that's mine...... Limit. β
"So would you be interested in coming back in a few days after recovery, and we'll prepare a set of metal balls like that for you. β
Brother Gongzi smiled wickedly at Yu Dongshui's "grass and mud horse" eyes:
"Make sure the material, shape, weight are exactly the same, just want you to perform again. β
"Oh...... Good...... Good. Yu Dongshui agreed stubbornly.
"That's a bad idea, little cub, if you find land here in a few days, I'll count me as losing!"
"Oh, yes. Brother Gongzi seems to have seen through Yu Dongshui's thoughts:
"When the time comes, I will invite many nobles from the outer city to come and see the magic king. Therefore, in order to ensure safety, no entry or exit is prohibited in the city except for special reasons these days. β
"Yes, great idea! worthy of my son!"
The viscount was naturally overjoyed to see that his son was so active in magic for the first time, and even invited foreign nobles to watch it together.
"How's it going?" asked the Viscount excitedly.
"I didn't ...... Yes, no problem. Yu Dongshui reluctantly replied.
"This little rabbit, do you think I can't fool a few soldiers?
Yu Dongshui felt a little better, got up to take the small ball he had just thrown out, held it in his hand, and flipped the switch, wanting to stop it.
Again, unexpectedly, it simply can't stop!
"No, man, no, it's okay, you can stop!"
At the same time, that force seemed to respond to Yu Dongshui's thoughts, and reversed from his palm to his body.
It was at this time that Yu Dongshui felt that his physical strength had recovered in an instant.
The ball, too, stopped working.
The viscount looked at Yu Dongshui, who was alone in a daze, and couldn't help asking, "Is it really okay?"
"Oh, no, it's fine. Yu Dongshui came back to his senses and began to pretend that his body was hollowed out again, and continued to recover the remaining few small balls.
Everything is normal, it can be automatically turned off with the flick of a switch.
Firewood house not far away......
A man lay on his stomach on the newly installed iron door, waving the wooden plank in his hand:
"Magician, come out! Don't think that if you trap me in this steel cage, you can escape!
"Did you just break your head?"
"Pathetic. β
The two guards were frightened a dozen paces away and talked to each other.
However, the two of them suddenly felt a chill behind them. When he looked back again, the chief guard was no longer lying on the railing of the iron gate, and the screaming had stopped.
The two timidly walked to the iron gate, pushed it open, and found the chief guard lying at the iron gate, fainting.
"Yes...... Excessive excitement...... Fainted, didn't you?" said one of them, as if seeking comfort.
The other was silent.
Immersed in the coolness just now.
ββββββββββββββ
In front of a huge dark blue crystal, the old man's eyes were suddenly attracted by a flash of the crystal.
"A magical reaction that only lasted a few dozen breaths......" the old man muttered to himself.
"President, could it be?" said a squire-like man, "What special race of individuals is forbidden to use magic, right?"
"There's no hurry. The old man said: "Dozens of breaths, or maybe when there is a monster, there are people from the Monster Bureau or people from the Monster Bureau." Because the monster was weak, it was immediately defeated. β
"So, it's possible. β
"Anyway, it's better to be cautious. The old man instructed: "Send the coordinates down to the branch in the corresponding area, and entrust the people from the Monster Bureau to investigate." If this reaction is caused by a sane being, it must be brought to the association by any means and subjected to further punishment. β
"Yes. The attendant received the order and slowly retreated.
"Hope isn't ......," the old man continued to stare at the crystal, silently reading in his mouth.
"If you can cast the spell continuously for dozens of breaths, the power can be described as quite amazing, I really hope it is not ......."
Then the old man looked back at the empty room and said to himself:
"And why does it always feel like something is wrong lately...... Am I getting old......"
