Chapter 52: The Theater
"Ding!"
The mechanical alarm clock jingles and wakes Thor from his meditation.
"It's dawn"
This is an empty attic of more than 100 square meters.
On one side of the wall is a huge bookshelf, full of books, parchment papers, picture scrolls, etc.
The morning sun shines through the floor-to-ceiling windows, spreading a layer of golden light on the ground.
Thor walked out of the window to the balcony and was greeted by the green mountains and forests.
A thin mist swirls around the peaks of the hills, gradually dissipating in the sunlight.
This is the Holy Gem Mountain, and on the other side of the mountain is the Holy Gem High School, but Thor has graduated.
After a few simple stretches, Thor squatted slightly, his feet staggered, and his hands grasped the hilt of his sword.
"Whew"
Exhaled and spoke, turned his waist and stepped forward, moving left and right, his hands seemed to be swinging his long sword, and his breathing sounded like a muffled thunder, slow and orderly.
The fog at the top of the mountain completely dissipated, Thor slowly retracted his movements, and let out a long breath of turbidity, suddenly feeling refreshed and his muscles warm.
This is an ancient breathing method recorded in the free collection sent by the Magic Society before.
It is said to be of great help to restore physical fatigue and recuperate the spirit.
Although he didn't even care about the Magic Association, he just passed by, but Thor insisted on practicing for a year.
It worked so well that now he was able to meditate all night and rejuvenate quickly after carving the magic circuit.
Go downstairs and go to the kitchen to cook and replenish your nutritional consumption.
Half a year ago, Saul moved out of the Hayworms house and moved into this mid-level villa alone.
There was no maid who agreed to the arrangement of the parents, because it was not suitable.
The villa seems to have only one yard and two floors, but in fact, the underground space is very large.
That's what Thor built this villa for!
In preparation for the next learning of magic dolls, Thor was in an underground laboratory and dissected corpses for three months.
While eating, the doorbell rang, and Thor stepped forward to open the door.
A middle-aged man with yellow hair and deep sunken eyes walked in.
It was Wilt, a low-level apothecary hiding in the town of Little Fore, who cultivated Necro Grass and Serpentine Grass.
Now he has moved to Quill City and has become a half-vassal apothecary of Thor.
"Good morning, Lord Saul"
Although he knew the identity of Thor's magic envoy, after more than a year of getting along, Wilt also figured out Thor's character and greeted him easily.
Thor nodded: "I'm still eating, be careful with your movements." ”
After that, I returned to the restaurant and continued to eat slowly.
Wilt glanced at the rich and delicious breakfast on the table, and swallowed exaggeratedly.
Thor ignored him.
I had no choice but to walk to the basement, hating in my heart: what is the use of a magic trick to make such a good cook, what a waste!
Half an hour later, Thor was still eating.
Ever since mastering the Magic Wheel, he has eaten an astonishing amount of food, eating seven or eight servings of food at a time.
Wilt returned to the living room with a huge package on his back.
After the baptism of the basement scene, I lost my appetite, waved my hand with Thor, and walked away sweating profusely.
Thor frowned, picked up a rag and went to the living room, leaning over to wipe away the blood that Wilt had fallen.
After the meal, Thor changed his clothes because he was going out today.
For the sake of secrecy, Saul's villa is located in a col halfway up the mountain.
The surrounding area is wooded and shrubby, with only a hidden winding path leading to the base of the mountain.
In fact, this is also the magic workshop chosen by Saul, the future.
At the foot of the hill, an ornate carriage has stopped on the side of the road, bearing the coat of arms of the Hayworms family.
The coat of arms of the Hayworms family in the Old World, is a shield wrapped in thorn flowers.
But the badge on the car has an extra sail-shaped architectural pattern underneath.
The carriage pulled out of the Holy Gem Mountain and soon into the city.
It has been a year and seven months since the Holy Spirit Sect's Knight King Three Treasures were unsealed, and the situation on the Hill Peninsula has calmed down.
Last month, the Holy Spirit Cult issued a statement that it had found one last group of shamans.
That is, the living man who manipulated the beast to slaughter the northern border town last year was brought back to the city of Gaya, and hanged in public.
Since then, the so-called shamanic cults have finally been completely wiped out after the Holy Spirit Sect dispatched the Three Precious Tools.
Ania and the others, after that night, have not been seen in the city of Güell again.
It is said that he was hunted down by the Holy Spirit Cult and fled into the Scarlet Wasteland.
Over the past year, a large number of Hils have left the city of Güell for the city of Gaya, where they have made a so-called pilgrimage.
The city of Gaya is located at the central junction of the three northern kingdoms, and the Hispanic people who go on pilgrimage can only flock to the northern three kingdoms.
As a result, the non-Hilic people of the northern kingdom panicked and eventually fled the north.
Many northerners came to the city of Güell.
Because at the suggestion of Saul, the consul, Count Memello, in order to appease the people, launched a plan for the redevelopment of the city, which provided a lot of opportunities
The carriage carrying Thor slowed down as soon as it entered the city.
Thor opened the window and it turned out to be Harbor City Boulevard.
One of the main thoroughfares of the city of Güell, despite its wideness, is often crowded these days.
Just like now, horse-drawn carriages are draining long streams, cars are in the middle, and horns are constantly honking.
The shops on both sides of the street are open, and the clerks stand in front of the door, dancing and greeting customers, sweating profusely in the morning.
Because due to the large influx of northerners, the competition for business is fierce.
For example, the vendors pushing wheelbarrows on the street are mostly northerners.
Thor saw a shop selling musical instruments, and found a band to play on the street.
The city is more vibrant, welcoming, and most importantly, stable and hopeful than before.
In fact, this has a lot to do with Saul, specifically, because of the real estate he is engaged in.
Uncle Mekla, who is now the largest real estate developer in Güell, almost controls half of Güell's shopping streets.
The original Hayworms Theatre, along with the shops in its vicinity, has changed dramatically.
It is exactly what it looks like in the past, and it is now the largest commercial street in the city of Güell and the largest in the peninsula.
Saul bought a large plot of land on the ruins that had been destroyed by the tsunami and built a new theater for his parents.
The new Hayworms Theatre has become a landmark in the city of Güell.
Even though it's still a short time, its fame has already spread.
It has been crowned as "Miracle of the Millennium", "The Most Beautiful Theater in the World", "Temple of Art" and so on.
It is attracting artists and architects from the Old and New Worlds, who come from thousands of miles of sea.
They called the Hayworms Theater "Boroo", which means the temple of the goddess of literature and art.
......
The carriage left Harbour City Avenue with difficulty.
After turning a few ordinary streets and climbing a slope, the breeze blowing in my face brought the salty smell of seawater.
This road leading to the sea, as well as the buildings on both sides, are very new.
This is the neighborhood built from the ruins and named the Tsunami District in its honor.
And because the Hayworths Theater is located in the tsunami area, it attracts "artists" and even foreign literature and art lovers.
The city hall of Güell was simply built on the main road, and many of the ruins were directly entrusted to the artists.
So the tsunami area is full of art, colorful graffiti, weird houses, imaginative sculptures, everywhere.
By the sea, there is a road around the bay where the Hayworms Theater is located, called the Élysée Bay Boulevard.
This is named after Saul's mother.
Far away, at the end of the Avenue Elysée, a magnificent and strange building lies quietly in the bay.
The roof is very different from the popular arch, but four shell-like sequences.
The first three "shells", one covered with one, are hugging towards the bay.
The last one stood with his back to the bay and looked like a clam lying upside down.
The pointed shells of different heights are all covered with silver-white porcelain tiles.
From a distance, it looks like an erected shell and two giant white sailing ships, fluttering on the blue sea.
Under the early morning sun, it is like a mythical goddess, magnificent and fantastic, which makes people full of artistic reverie.
That's the Hayworms Theatre.
If it weren't for the memories drawn from the crystal nucleus, it would be difficult for Thor to recreate the strange shape of the grand theater in his previous life.
In pursuit of magical powers, he was destined to fail to fulfill the obligations of an ordinary son, and this theater was both a gift and a compensation.
Of course, no matter how magnificent the theater is, if there is no drama that has been handed down, it is a ruin in it.
So Saul simply copied Shakespeare, Liang Zhu, and the symphonies he had heard.
Today, Saul was called by his parents to check on the rehearsals for Romeo and Juliet.
The Hayworms believed that they had to be tested as an "author" before they could arrange a show.
Because three days later, the Duke of New Lanta will also come to the theater to see a new work by Master Hayworth.
The so-called Hayworms masters, because all the plays, are released in the name of the Hayworms family.
And this name now represents the master of drama!
The interior of the theater is divided into three parts, the opera hall, the concert hall, and the banquet restaurant.
According to the situation in this world, Saul placed the opera hall in the largest space, while the concert hall was smaller.
Although it can't achieve the sound and lighting effects of the previous life, it has also done its best.
The floors and ceilings are made of wood from the north, the seats are custom-made red leather covers, and the stage is equipped with a pulley lift.
When I walked into the opera hall, I saw my father holding the script and playing with the actors seriously on stage.
The mother, dressed in civilian clothes and with her back to Thor, stood under the stage, giving comments from time to time.
The father on stage was high-spirited and full of charm.
The mother in the audience is just wearing the back of casual clothes, still revealing a graceful and luxurious temperament.
This is the confidence that the Hayworms Theatre brings to them, and it is also the effect that Saul wants.
"Mother"
Gently approaching the stage, Thor greeted his mother.
Mrs. Hayworms turned her head and smiled lovingly, but then she bowed her head and teased the child in her arms:
"Little Dahn, look, your brother is finally here, do you remember what he looked like?"
His mother was complaining that he didn't come home often, and Thor could only smile but not say much.
Unable to get the desired response, Mrs. Hayworms glared at Thor, inadvertently revealing a girl's coquettishness.
For more than a year, the outside world has been stable, and my brother has become a wealthy businessman in Güell City.
The son built a miracle theater for her, naming a street after her.
The family has prospered unimaginably, and she has become a real noblewoman.
Although the eldest son made her worried, the younger son comforted her.
This leads Mrs. Hayworth, who has a feeling of getting younger and younger, often showing a girlish feeling.
Of course, Thor would love to see that.
Teased, glaring at his big-eyed brother and listening to his mother's complaints, Thor was not afraid of the new journey he was about to embark on.
Two months ago, when he entered the Void Ancient City for the last time, he got a message.
Because of the stability of the situation, a magic envoy in the New Ao Continent is about to re-recruit apprentices.
So according to the plan, Saul is leaving the city of Quill.
"What? You're leaving in seven days!"
After the rehearsal, the parents got together, and Saul said what he was going to do.
As soon as the father's hand was loosened, the cherished script slipped down, and the mother lost her smile and hugged her younger brother gloomily.
Although he had long expected Thor to leave, and he was prepared for it, this day really came......
It wasn't until little Dahn cried that his parents seemed to come back to their senses.
"When to leave and when to come back?"
The father's tone was full of bitterness.
"I'll leave the morning after tomorrow and come back at a time, maybe a year or two, maybe longer. ”
"Can't wait for Romeo and Juliet to come out before leaving?"
"I'm afraid not, it's too late. ”
"Okay, okay"
