Chapter 172: Teleportation Array
This voice suddenly lifted Durou's heart to his throat, and he forgot to turn around. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Of course he recognized the voice, and the young man's appearance immediately came to mind.
His lips moved, and Duru was just about to say something, when the voice rang out again.
"I don't need to explain anything. What a man will get is because of the choices he makes. I don't need to say more about this cause and effect!"
Behind Du Lu, because the light of the table lamp was blocked by the tall chair, the shadow behind the chair slowly walked out of a person, and it was Fang Zhen.
He put one hand on Duru's shoulder, which was not a malicious move, but it made Duru panic in his heart.
Suddenly, Du Lu remembered what Fang Zhen had said at the cocktail party, and cold sweat gradually flowed out on his forehead.
Swallowing his saliva, Duru said nervously, "So... Mr. Solomon, I really don't know what I did wrong, and I am not to blame you for obviously declining the invitation. I'm still wondering why you're like this. And now you're here again, and I don't know if you're trying to ......."
"Of course I got what I deserved. Fang Zhen let go of the hand on Du Lu's shoulder, went around to the other side, and continued: "I said at the beginning, you must have paid me, you must have heard it at that time, right?"
Du Lu did remember that at the drinking party, the young man said this sentence, followed by words with murderous intent. But he gradually calmed down and became less nervous. He said, "Then why do you refuse the invitation? If you accept the invitation, I will definitely come to see you, and I can also give you the power of thunder!"
Fang Zhen didn't reply immediately, just walked out the window and looked down at the streets of the city. He sighed and said, "Say it as if you have it." If you're not mistaken, you don't have the power of lightning right now. ”
Turning around, leaning on the windowsill, looking at Du Lu levelly, Fang Zhen's voice grew colder: "Or, you didn't plan to give it to me at all." ”
Feeling Fang Zhen's cold eyes, Du Lu's heart became nervous again, he didn't dare to continue to look at each other, looked at other places casually, and said:
"Please don't get me wrong, I haven't officially inherited the title yet, so I don't have the permission to contact the Thundering Grass King yet. Only the father can contact the family, after all, the Thundering Grass King is the foundation of the family's business. Please rest assured, as long as I clear out the rest of the matter, after inheriting the title, I will take care of the Thundering Grass Manor, and the reward owed to you will definitely be repaid. Trust me. ”
When he said this, Du Lu showed sincerity, as if he couldn't see Fang Zhen's mocking expression at all.
Fang Zhen waved his hand, stopping Du Lu from wanting to continue to defend himself.
"After so much effort, I didn't get the power of the thunder power, do you think I will be willing?"
I don't know when, Fang Zhen was already sharpening his nails with the wind-based magic short blade in his hand.
"So, Mr. Solomon, what do you want?" Duru shuddered a little at the sight of the silver blade.
At this time, the corners of Fang Zhen's mouth smiled sinisterly, and he said softly: "It's okay, I just want to knock a bamboo pole well." ”
-------------------------
The underground plaza of the central square of Thundergrass City, the teleportation room.
Each city has a teleportation array that is connected to other cities, and only large cities will have a spatial teleportation array left over from a thousand years ago, which is a teleportation magic array that consumes low energy and is extremely stable, and reduces the spatial shock generated during teleportation to the limit. Other second-tier cities, and even third- and fourth-tier cities, can only use elemental teleportation arrays.
The more commonly used is the earth system teleportation array. Because the continent has the most earth element, most cities will build at least one earth teleportation array. Other cities with special geographical advantages will also have teleportation arrays of other elemental systems, such as cities built on the edge of rivers, lakes and oceans, most of them will build water teleportation arrays.
It's just that the elemental teleportation array has many problems such as high cost, frequent maintenance, high energy consumption, etc., compared to the spatial teleportation array itself, the disadvantages of the elemental teleportation array are very obvious.
It is for these reasons that most of the transportation modes in non-large cities will use long-eared horses, or other domesticated monsters and birds.
As for the Aslan Empire, which is based on magic, rich people don't want to use teleportation arrays, so they will take high-end magic technology flying ships. Flying ships are products of high-end magic technology, which are very expensive, so they are relatively rare. In the frontier cities and Sayaru City, Fang Zhen has not seen it, and the eastern and central parts of the Aslan Empire can often see it.
In the Thundering Grass City, the teleportation room is underground, but the space opened up is not very large, perhaps because there are few people using the teleportation array.
Ace and Hanston, along with Diro, were already waiting in the break room next to the teleportation room. Originally, they wanted to keep Hanston and Di Ruo, after all, Thundering Grass City was a place for their siblings to grow, but considering the tracking of the Flame Grass Chamber of Commerce, they still brought the two of them.
Besides, Di Ruo said that Thundering Grass City was not the hometown of the two siblings, so when he left, he simply said goodbye and explained to some acquaintances, and then packed his luggage and followed Fang Zhen.
In the lounge, there was another person waiting for Fang Zhen, and this person was Viscount Fran's bodyguard, Tuza.
"Looking at your expression, what do you seem to have gained?"
Tuza said with a smile.
"If it didn't work, I'd do him that much favor? ”
Fang Zhen seemed to be in a good mood, although he didn't get the thunder power to activate the thunder magic seed in his body, but he knocked on a good bamboo pole and got a lot of compensation from Du Lu, at least it was worth the trip.
"Your students have a lot of potential, I don't know where you're going to take them to settle down, if you don't mind, Lord Viscount can arrange it for you. ”
Tuza clearly has a heart for Ace and Hanston.
"It's not a bother, they're still young, but with that little girl here, at least the diaper will change itself. Fang Zhen touched Hanston's little head, looked at Di Ruo and joked. And ignore the roll of Diruo's eyes at him.
Then the group walked to the teleportation room.
The teleportation room is also a hall, full of dirt and rocks, and the earth element fills the air and is very active. A feeling of earthiness and desolation arises spontaneously.
"It's getting late, it's time to go. By the way, how much is the transmission fee this time?"
Fang Zhen took out a few silver coins and counted them, and this look was clearly "crying poor".
Seeing this, Tuza shook his head and said with a smile: "All the expenses of the teleportation array will be borne by Lord Viscount. ”
"Oh, why are you so polite, you see I have all the money out. Fang Zhen pretended to be embarrassed, and then threw all these silver coins on the side of the hall, in front of the old magician who was in charge of the teleportation array.
Small boxes are usually a tip from a guest.
This old magician in an earthy yellow magic robe, the old dragon clock looked disdainful, and he really didn't want to bother to despise this young man who was carrying a few silver coins to charge a large amount of money.
Suddenly, as if receiving a signal, the old magician appeared in the magic ball on the magic control table in front of him.
This is a hint that there are other teleportation arrays connected, and after the old magician confirmed the information, he shook the magic staff in his hand for a moment, as if he was responding to something, and Fang Zhen was stunned for a moment.
Then, I saw the earth teleportation array on the dirt stir up dust and emit a faint light.
Dust rises, and a thickening mist coalesces in the center of the teleportation chamber. The light emitted by the formation patterns of the Earth Teleportation Array became more and more vigorous.
Vaguely, Fang Zhen could sense a very strong fluctuation in the dust, and this fluctuation was not a familiar magic fluctuation, which made him very puzzled.
Suddenly, without warning, the dust mist suddenly gathered towards the center, and then exploded, sending a faint shockwave around it.
Fortunately, it was only dust, and if it was wind and sand, everyone in the teleportation room would probably be swept up in the dust.
From the middle of the teleportation array, there were two people standing.
The dust was still drifting, so it was hard to identify who it was. But Fang Zhen's intuition is often very keen.
"Viscount Fran, I didn't expect you to come back for me!"
Fang Zhen didn't expect it.
At this time, Viscount Fran should be crowned in the Aslan Imperial Capital and promoted to the rank of Earl. Then there was a banquet with the nobles and so on and a series of tedious things. And at this moment, he used the teleportation array to return to Thundering Grass City, in Fang Zhen's opinion, even if he didn't come back specifically to see him, it must have something to do with him.
"It's an honor to see you again, Mr. Solomon!"
Franc's bold voice rang out from the dust.
I saw his upright figure standing in the dust, giving people a momentum that Mount Tai will never fall. made Fang Zhen feel extraordinary.
And the person next to Fran was a little like Tuza. He also wore a gray cloak, but held a long staff in his left hand.
"The Viscount is so busy, why did he rush back to see me, I'm so embarrassed!"
Fang Zhen's expression was sincere, and he looked grateful, but his heart was not as grateful as Fran expected, if he could be moved by strangers so easily, it wouldn't be him.
"Alas, if Durroux hadn't done a good job, I wouldn't have come back in a hurry to apologize for you. Fran put his hands behind his back and said with an apologetic face: "I sincerely apologize for Duru's dishonesty, he owes you, as a father, I should bear it." ”
After speaking, Fran took out a wooden box and handed it to Fang Zhen.
The wooden box is old, with quaint patterns engraved on it. What is the material, Yi Fang Zhen did not recognize his shallow knowledge of the other world, but he could clearly feel the different atmosphere of the wooden box.
"This is?" Fang Zhen didn't stretch out his hand to take it. Because Fran had given him a sword that symbolized nobility, Fang Zhen would not accept this kind of thing rashly. So this time, let's ask a question first.
Fran smiled slightly, comprehending Fang Zhen's caution, and said, "This is your real reward." ”
Fang Zhen nodded, took the wooden box, did not open it, did not look closely, and threw it directly into the space belt.
After seeing Fang Zhen accept it, Fran smiled undiminishedly, and continued to take out a short blade with strong lines and a latch. He said, "Thanks to Prince Ray's kindness, he gave me a weapon, but I don't need it, just because the boots you are wearing are a little familiar, and they should match this short blade." ”
It's not a rainy day, so please don't talk nonsense.
Fang Zhen joked in his heart, but said: "Viscount Fran is really very knowledgeable, but wouldn't it be good for Prince Lei to give you a gift to me again?"
"Please don't worry, Prince Lei is a kind and open-minded person, if you know that I gave it to you, you will definitely support it very much. This is the weapon used by Prince Lei when he was young, and as long as it is forged again by an alchemy master, it must also be a magician-level weapon. Besides, Prince Lei also hopes that a worthy strong man can have it. I think Mr. Solomon is the chosen one for this weapon."
