Chapter XVIII
John's home was a small, bright-looking villa, and according to him, the plain they had just landed, including the hill in the distance, was his family's property. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Although I know that the family background of the person who can make the flying armor is not ordinary, but you are richer than I imagined......" Liu Zijin not only sighed.
John smiled shyly and replied, "It's all my parents' work." ”
"...... your parents?"
"Yes, that's what you think. They both died a decade ago while fending off the air thieves, and the mayor gave it all to me in their honor. ”
"They...... Are they all empty knights?"
"Yes. ”
"No wonder you want to take to the skies so much. ”
"Haha, have you been discovered...... John smiled, "but it's not just because of that, I'm also interested in the sky. ”
"I wish you success!"
"Of course!"
The four of them entered the house, and John led them into three empty rooms, one by one, and after a brief rest, the four of them came to the living room and gathered together to talk.
Liu Zijin smiled and said, "John, you know that we are wandering travelers, we are collecting interesting stories while traveling, and we have found an interesting phenomenon in it, do you know what it is?"
"What is it? I want to think about it, is it that there are often stories that are the same?"
"That's what you're talking about, but it's not that. We find that each place is always slightly different about the origins of our world. ”
"Ah, you mean, there are places that don't feel like we've been lifted up into the sky by a merciful God?"
"Please keep this a secret for the time being, and tell me about the creation legend you have here. ”
"Well," John was clearly interested in the subject, "I think about it, do you start from scratch? Well, well! Legend has it that two thousand years ago, we were still living on the ground, when there were many natural disasters and the people were suffering from misery. The people prayed to the gods to save them from calamity, and the benevolent gods accepted the people's request and lifted many continents into the sky and connected them one by one with heavenly locks. People finally stopped suffering, and the gods gave humans the gift of feeling the sea of clouds, with which humans could move freely in the sky. ”
John smiled bitterly: "But not everyone can feel the sea of clouds, most people can only use the tools made by the sea of clouds, such as me." That's pretty much it, how, what's the difference?"
"Well, there's a slight difference, for example, the version I've heard is that the talent of the sea of clouds has been possessed by humans since the past. ”
John's eyes widened in shock: "But the first Sky Knight appeared fifteen hundred years ago. ”
"Dear John, it's not like we haven't used it, there may be other talents in our bodies that haven't been developed. ”
"What do you mean...... I actually have a sea of clouds in my body?"
"That's true, it's just that you can't feel them. ”
"Do you have a way to make me feel it!?"
"Calm down, John, maybe I have some way, but let's not worry. ”
On the side, Yi Shaoguang and Su Yan were drinking tea and watching Liu Zi's face change without changing his face.
"He didn't even blink an eye when he lied, and if we hadn't just arrived, I would have been persuaded by him. ”
Su Yan nodded: "Well, and John seems to have believed him." ”
"I really don't know how many people he has deceived, and so does John, so why don't you know to suspect him. ”
"Adulteration of the truth is the most convincing, and I have taken it in Chinese classes in school. ”
"I haven't learned there yet. Su Yan, how do you usually come to a world to get information?"
"I don't have this habit, when we come to a world, the key people of this world, as well as the aberration points, must be near the place where we appeared. I just need to find a place to wait. ”
"Then why does Liu Zijin always ask in such detail?"
"He studied the study of history and legend, and may have a penchant for this method. ”
"Ah, is it?"
Yi Shaoguang drank the tea in one gulp, and at this time Liu Zijin seemed to have almost set up the information.
"John, I have one last question, did you see that airship today?"
"You mean the official Pfister airship?"
"yes! I've never seen it anywhere else, is it common here?"
"I haven't seen much of it, it seems like they've only been here once in a long time. The first time I saw them was when I was a child, and I can't remember the details. ”
"What are they doing here? Is there anything special here?"
"I don't know...... John's mind flashed to his parents' faces, "probably...... Indeed there is. ”
"Really?" Liu Zijin comforted him like this, "Don't be sad, John, you'll be an empty knight, I promise." ”
"Thank you......"
"It's fine. ”
......
After dinner, the three of them gathered in Liu Zijin's house, and Yi Shaoguang sat on a stool with his hands on his lap, looking elegant and demure.
"What do we need to do?"
"It's not clear yet, but it seems to me that the problem must be with the airship. Liu Zijin sat on the ground, one leg crossed, he put one hand on the crossed leg, and his back rested on the edge of the bed.
Su Yan sat on the bed and nodded, "I think so, too." ”
"Are you lying when you say that John has a sea of clouds today? ”
Liu Zijin smiled when he heard this, and replied: "It's not a lie, I really think that everyone here should have a sea of clouds, but their affinity for the sea of clouds is different." Although I am only a half-mage, I think that the users of this sea of clouds, those empty knights, have particularly strong spell fluctuations, while those ordinary people on the road today are average. But John was not like that, and the spell fluctuations on his body were even stronger than those two of the three Sky Knights. ”
"John's sea of clouds is sealed?like Harry Potter?" Yi Shaoguang was accustomed to reminiscent of his favorite novels.
"Not necessarily, maybe there are other reasons, we just need to find out why. ”
"What if you can't find it?"
"Then I'll have to teach him half-baked wind magic. ”
"People here can learn spells too?"
"Spells are common. Speaking of which, aren't you a mage, why don't you know that?"
Yi Shaoguang shook his head, looking very bored, "I've just started learning, and my spell hasn't even been named yet." It is still not perfect, and now it can only write two words at most, and the strokes cannot exceed twenty-five strokes. ”
"It's okay, you're already very good, and one day you can write as long as you want. ”
"Uh-huh!"
Su Yan sat on the bed and shook her legs, looking very leisurely, seeing that the two had finished talking, she asked, "What are we going to do tomorrow?"
"Let John show us around the city in the morning, ah, I don't know if you heard me clearly. Originally, every seven islands here would be divided into a city, governed by the same person, but this is the most basic, and there are large and small cities, our city is called, Gothic. ”
"Gothic...... I love the name. ”
"Who doesn't love that name. ”
"What about the afternoon?"
"That airship is going to dock in the afternoon, and you know what we're going to do. ”
"Hmm...... There...... It's not easy. ”
"So we're going to find out. ”
"Hmmm......"
The conversation came to an end here, and Su Yan continued to sit on the bed and dangle his legs, not knowing what he was thinking. Yi Shaoguang looked at the book in his chair, this is a collection of books borrowed from John's family, and it is said to be the most interesting masterpiece in the world. Liu Zijin took out the sealing frost, the sealing frost emitted a faint blue light, and the white dots surrounded the fingertips, Liu Zijin clamped the blade between his fingers, and the extremely low temperature that would have made people freeze instantly seemed to have no effect on Liu Zijin, and he actually turned the sealing frost up like this.
After about I don't know how long, Liu Zijin suddenly said: "You two, didn't you find out that this is my room? How long are you going to stay here? It's getting late, it's time to go to bed." ”
Yi Shaoguang, who was immersed in the plot of the book, couldn't help but shudder, she was completely immersed in another world, if it weren't for Liu Zijin reminding her now, she would probably have seen the end of the book, "Ah! It's been this time!"
"yes......"
Yi Shaoguang shyly covered his face with a book, "Why don't you remind me......"
"I thought you'd look up at the clock at least once in a while. ”
“...... I was going to stop after reading this, but I just couldn't. ”
"I understand. Liu Zijin nodded thoughtfully.
Yi Shaoguang picked up the book and stood up, just came to the door, and found that Su Yan was still sitting on the bed, without the slightest intention of leaving.
"Su Yan, aren't we going back together?"
"I'm the Night Watchman. ”
Liu Zijin couldn't help but complain when he heard this: "I don't need you to keep vigil today, you can sleep well, and besides, you don't need to be in my room for vigil!"
Su Yan looked at Liu Zijin, tilted his head, and thought for a while: "Okay." ”
She jumped out of bed, took a candle from her personal space, and placed it on the table, and as soon as the candle touched the table, it lit automatically, emitting a faint fire.
"Alright. ”
"Okay, then you can go back to your room. Good night. ”
Su Yan nodded, walked to Yi Shaoguang's side and said, "I'll also go to your room to put a candle later." ”
"Hmm. ”
Yi Shaoguang opened the door, and suddenly stood as if she remembered something, she turned around and smiled: "Good night, Liu Zijin." ”
"Good dreams. ”
Yi Shaoguang walked out of the door satisfied, and Su Yan quietly followed her and closed the door.
Liu Zijin looked at the candle and whispered to herself: "I hope everything goes well tomorrow......"
