Chapter 96: The Distant Shadow of Home

In the snowflakes flying, Wen Ming stood alone on the eastern wall of the World City, gazing at the Donghua Continent.

The walls of the World City function very differently from the walls of the cities on the ground, which are designed to defend against monster enemies, while the walls of the World City are designed to prevent someone from accidentally falling from them.

Therefore, the walls of the World City are not very tall, and they are guarded to prevent idle people from waiting to go up, which is originally to prevent someone from falling, and if someone runs to it and falls, it will be a joke.

However, not everyone can go up the city wall, and the only requirement for going up is to have the ability to fall without being killed.

And Wen Ming has exactly this ability.

If he only relies on the [Meteor Thorn], because it is too high, the final speed will be too fast, and the potential energy will be too great, and he may not be able to land safely, but as long as he takes off the school robe during the fall process and opens it into an umbrella, he can greatly reduce the landing speed, so that he can land steadily.

With the quality of the runic palace robe, there is no need to worry about it being broken.

After explaining and demonstrating his ability to step on the air to the guards, he was qualified to go up the city wall.

It's a pity that he can't fly now, otherwise he won't need any explanation, and no one will stop him if he flies directly onto the city wall.

Approaching the end of the year, the World City also has a bit of a festive flavor, but because only a very small number of families can settle in the World City, and those big people have lived for a long time, many children and grandchildren are long gone, and the descendants are already several generations apart, and they don't have any feelings about the New Year, so the New Year's flavor of the World City is far inferior to other cities.

In the vast white world, no matter how powerful the true pupil of Dong Xuan is, he can't see how far away. Not to mention that it was snowing, even if the sky was clear, he couldn't see the Donghua Continent or his home.

Maybe one day he can do it, but not now.

I've been in World City for almost a year. He would send a stack of letters home every month, because the transmission was expensive, except for the first month when the family replied to him and gave him a lot of advice, and then he asked the family not to reply.

But yesterday there was another letter from home, and it also came with some of his favorite New Year's food made by his mother.

Then he didn't sleep well all night, eating food, crying and laughing, getting up early in the morning and running to the city wall to look at the Donghua Continent, even if he couldn't see anything.

In the past few days, in addition to the students of the three golden giant cities, there are also a small number of students who have used the teleportation array to go home. However, they are basically senior students or elite students, and there are only a few rookie students.

Some of the students who went back used the teleportation array of the Ziyun Academy, while others used the public teleportation array of World City, and the difference was that the former used credits as teleportation fees, while the latter was a spare.

Because of this, most of them use the public teleportation array, even if the students have enough credits to use the teleportation array inside the Ziyun Academy, few of them will use it, and the credits are all accumulated to buy exercises and other good things.

In the case of the use of hedrons, only a small number of students go home. The main reason is that the cost of transmission is too expensive! Generally, students only go back once in a few years, and it is really not something that most students can afford to go back every year.

In addition to not being able to afford the teleportation fee, another reason is that most of the students' bodies can't withstand the transcontinental teleportation. Without protection, it takes about 10 points of physique to safely teleport across continents, which is a value that most rookie students can't reach.

However, if you have a mastery or above school suit, and then have a 7 or 8 point physique, then you can almost teleport.

At this point, Wen Ming met the requirements. It's a pity that his credits or hedron are not enough to teleport.

He used a small teleportation array to teleport to the coastal city closest to Red Maple City, which required more than 160,000 credits or more than 1,600 spars, so the hedron didn't have to think about it. And his credits have not only not been seen more, but have decreased.

He could get more than 2,000 credits from the Xuegong Tower every month, but the consumption of the transmission letter and the Qingyuan Earth elixir exceeded the income by a few hundred points, so he only had more than 80,000 credits now, which was only half of the credits he had returned, and the one who came back was even more lost.

The teleportation space in the small teleportation array seems to allow two or three people to huddle together and teleport together, but in fact, the energy gravitational vortex of the small teleportation array has limited power, and if multiple people teleport together, it is likely to interfere with the operation of the gravitational vortex, and it is difficult to say what the consequences will be.

So he just wanted to find other people, such as Ji Jingyun, Peanut, and Zhuo Maolin, to teleport together, and it was not feasible to share the cost of teleportation.

In fact, among all the new students, except for those who live in the three golden giant cities, only Gu Qiyao has gone home, he has enough crystals to teleport home, and he must also go back.

Not only did he go home for a reunion, but he also needed to go home and report to his elders about the various events of the year in the Ziyun Academy, his cultivation progress, his study, who he had met, etc., all of which were necessary for him, who was born in the Gu family and was still the most important child of the Gu family's generation.

Although there are usually correspondence exchanges, it is not as clear as in person.

......

And Wen Ming, who couldn't go home, could only stand on the city wall and look in the direction of his home, and relieve his homesickness a little.

He was immersed in longing, but he didn't notice that someone under the city wall was looking at him.

Under the city wall is Ji Jingyun, every time Wen Ming sends a letter home, she will send it together, and when the family wants to reply to the letter, they will also notify the Ji family, and by the way, they will send their letters and items.

So yesterday, Ji Jingyun also received a letter from home and New Year's food.

She also didn't sleep well last night, and after getting up early, she actually had the same idea as Wen Ming - to go to the city wall to look at the Donghua Continent.

It's just that Wen Ming realized her idea, but she couldn't get the guards to agree to her going up the city wall, but let her find Wen Ming standing on the city wall.

When she found Wen Ming, he was already white, because the snow was falling a lot, and the whole person was about to turn into a snowman, but he was motionless, just staring quietly into the distance.

Ji Jingyun was under the city wall, also quietly watching his back, and slowly turned into a snowman.

In the distance, the gray-haired city wall guards, looking at this scene, their eyes full of vicissitudes of life revealed a deep attachment, some for the lover who has turned into a handful of loess, but also for their own lost youth, and for their children and grandchildren in the distance......

I don't know how long it took, but a touch of red appeared in the sky, but it was a round of warm winter sun rising.

Ji Jingyun turned her eyes to look at the red, then at Wen Ming, and smiled lightly, fortunately she was here with him.

"Wen Ming, come down and walk with me. She shouted to Wen Ming. (To be continued.) )

PS: Tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, I really hope that you who read the book are not like Wen Ming can only look at your hometown from afar, if you are lucky enough to have people such as traffic police, border guards, railway people, etc. who have to stick to their posts and work during the New Year, the extreme world style here salutes you!

Then I wish you all a good New Year, a healthy family, and all the best in advance!

Although the blessing language is vulgar, the blessing is always good.
