Chapter 9: Carly Jasmine
"Enlightened Pioneer Sharks, welcome back. β
A young woman in a thick black robe said respectfully to Spices, pretending not to notice that he was carrying a young man in a rough white shirt on his shoulder.
"It's almost dawn, please prepare the chains that imprison my mana. Sellers said anxiously, trying to put down Yingma, who was still asleep on his shoulder.
"Enlightened Pioneer, please give us this new blood, and you can rest in this room for a while. The black-robed woman bowed her head and said. Servian looked around, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Thank you for arranging, this house has a reassuring mana suppression enchantment and an excellent brick structure, no matter how crazy I am, I can't kill it without your permission, right?"
The black-robed woman didn't answer, took the sleeping Yingma and slowly withdrew.
The heavy ancient stone door slowly closed, and Silveres sat cross-legged and no longer made a sound. After a while, the sun rose, and his roar could be heard from the stone chamber.
"Shameless!" "Scoundrel!" "I should have broken you to pieces when I could have killed you, but I can still do it!" "The conspiracy of the council!"
The outside of the stone chamber was still cold and dark, and even so, the woman was wearing a heavy black robe and seemed to be afraid of being exposed to the sun.
The passage outside the stone room led to a slightly sunny hall, which was also made of dark cyan stone, with many reliefs and runes on the walls, and the woman was not interested in even looking at them, just as a housewife would never appreciate the murals that she had kept for years.
There is a door on each of the four walls of the hall, and the rest of the empty room is only a statue in the center. Without paying the slightest attention to the statue, the woman opened another stone door, and the bright, blinding sunlight filled the dark hall.
When the door opened, there was a stone bridge that stretched high in the sky, leading to the stone tower complex opposite, with clouds and abysses at her feetβof course, the woman had no interest in any of this.
"Ouch, Haiyan, you are sick, it will not be good to lift the curtains early in the morning and let Lao Tzu sleep more, and Mr. Dilto will not see it!" The man in the rough white shirt on his arm seemed to be stimulated by the sunshine, and began to scream.
The woman seemed to find the noise unbearable, and freed one handβthe fingers of that hand were placed on the man's forehead as if carved out of fine white jade, and at the same time the words were in her mouth. Then there was a faint purple light on his hand.
"Follower Carly Jasmine, good morning. β
A thin white mist hung over the bridge, and a vague figure stood opposite.
"Kevin Greystone, the Caller of Enlightenment. Good morning. β
Carly Jasmine quickly stopped casting the spell and stood respectfully, waiting for a response from the figure opposite.
"The time for the Elders to meet this man is set for dusk, and you want to bring him over so early?" the voice from the other side was full of confusion and reproach.
Carly Jasmine hurriedly bowed her head and said, "I'm sorry, I'll wake up this guest and take him to visit the scenery of Lonely Peak." β
"Not bad, but you can't call him a guest anymore, you should call him beginner Ima Rod. This is not to lead the princes and nobles of the Starlink Republic or the Skycover Empire to visit the beautiful scenery and obtain their support for our cause, so as to obtain their food, supplies, and weapons, but to lead a beginner to familiarize himself with the environment in which he will be staying for many years. Kevin Greystone said, and Carly Jasmine nodded in horror until Kevin Greystone's shadow was no longer visible in the mist.
Yingma struggled, and Carly Jasmine gently put him down in front of her, only to realize that this Imperial man was actually taller than herself, and she felt a little angry, so she turned her back and let the Imperial man in a rough short white shirt with his arms exposed to wake up from his sleep.
But Yingma yawned a few times in a row, then sneezed, and still muttered, "It's really cold today, I don't want to get up to work, this kind of weather is made for sleeping." β
Before he could finish speaking, he fell to Carly Jasmine head-on, just as he used to be like a roll of paper when he got up at the "Conqueror of the Sacred Mountain" inn and made up his mind to be lazy.
Carly Jasmine was furious, and her face turned red under the hood of her black robe and black mask.
"Shameless. Carly Jasmine snorted coldly, and stretched out the five fingers of her right hand into a palm, and Ingma stopped and maintained a position that looked extremely uncomfortable.
But Inma felt comfortable herself, because it was the air flow that Carly Jasmine had summoned with her spell that held Inma, and Inma now felt like she was lying face down in a place that was softer and more comfortable than the quilt.
"Aren't you awake yet?"
Carly Jasmine said coldly, taking a step back, and then immediately withdrawing the air mass that held Yingma. Ingma, who was asleep, fell forward suddenly, and the panic immediately woke him up in a panic and palpitations, and he took a sharp step forward to steady himself before he began to be stunned.
In front of her, there were steep mountains, stone buildings, and a man in a black mask and a large black robe, which scared Ima a lot. After twisting himself and grinning in pain, he was sure it wasn't a dream, and then his mind was filled with panic and confusion.
"Isn't there anyone in this world who can wake me up properly!" Ingma complained, and the black-robed man in front of him said in an even more contemptuous tone, "Can't you wake up on your own?"
Yingma straightened his clothes, and found that the cold here had made him feel extremely uncomfortable. He sneezed a few times before Carly Jasmine reluctantly threw him a heavy black robe, but Ima didn't notice that the black-robed man wasn't wearing it before.
"When I was a child in the orphanage, the old dog of the director would wake me up with a wooden stick every morning, and then I would be woken up every morning wherever I was doing chores, and even if Mr. Dierto was kind to us now, he would not allow me to sleep for a minute or two more in the morning." I haven't slept well. β
After that, he pointed to his dark circles, as if they were scars left in the glorious war.
Carly Jasmine pondered for a moment, and then waited for the future "beginner Ingma Rod" in front of her to put on the big black robe and said, "I'm sorry, I don't know your situation, for this, I, the follower Carly Jasmine, express my deep apologies, I shouldn't have teased you with wind control techniques." β
But Yingma said nonchalantly: "Carly Jasmine, what a long name and a bit tongue-twisting, I'm Yingma Rhodes from Yuanxin City, well, you haven't heard of the nameless junior." I've seen the flute snake control technique of the Jianghu Warlock from Yingxi City, ouch, that time the Jianghu Warlock came to us, and he didn't have much entanglement on his body, so he had to use his art to pay for the house."
"Oh. Inma, we are familiar with everything about you. Carly Jasmine said disappreciatively.
This annoyed Ima very much, and he hated it most than anything for others to interrupt his endless bragging, but thinking that the situation was still unclear, he resisted the urge to curse and said, "Well, then please tell me where the Duke of Sharks is?"
"Be respectful, thief!" said Nakali Jasmine in a sudden rage.
Even though Yingma feels that "people are swordsmen and I am fish and meat" at the moment, even if the voice of this Carly Jasmine in front of him is tactful, he is also a bastard, and the person in front of him is still angry with him for some reason.
"Stinky woman, what are you talking about? I don't wear this stinky dress!" said Yingma, and began to pull the black robe on her body.
This time, Carly Jasmine felt incredulous and asked, "Isn't it? It would be a great insult to mention the secular identity of the Enlightened Pioneer Sserlian on this lonely peak." Isn't it wrong for me to tell you to be respectful?"
Although Yingma felt that what she said was quite reasonable and she was indeed a little disrespectful, she still did not make the slightest concession, and muttered: "Why are there so many rules on this mountain, and no one cares about the monkeys jumping up and down every day in the Banka Mountains, and I call him an adult and say that I am disrespectful." β
Luckily, Carly Jasmine didn't hear him mutter, but said, "You can insult me, but you can't be disrespectful to the great Enlightenment pioneer Sharkes, you know?"
Yingma felt a little guilty at this time, and said, "Forgive me for my wild words, so now can I go and see the great Enlightenment Herald Sharks?"
Carly Jasmine shook her head and said, "You can't see him now, he will be affected every morning Anyway, you can't go see him now, but I can take you for a walk in this Lonely Peak Dragon Temple." β
The stubborn Yingma also shook her head and said, "No, no, no, I am here waiting for the great Enlightenment Pioneer Shark to tell me the truth of the matter." Madam, don't worry about getting busy, I'll wait for him here, although it's cold, but the scenery here is also good, you can see the starry river when you look out here. β
Speaking of which, Yingma pointed into the distance, where there was indeed a river, known as the Great River of Stars, which coincided with the western border of the Tiangai Empire, but it seemed extremely unclear and majestic at such a distance, and the turbulent waves of the legendary Starry River could not be seen.
"I don't know what to see, and what I'm going to take you to see is not the scenery, but the structure of the place, so that you don't get lost in the future. Carly Jasmine said, trying to cast a spell and use wind control to drag him away.
But she heard Yingma say to herself, "But he did have a little abnormal morning, so I'd better go shopping with this Kali Jasmine, maybe she wants to help me escape." β
Carly Jasmine was even more confused, she had heard that this was a place where people were trying to get in, and for the first time she had heard that someone had come here and wanted to escape, and that she was helping him escape.
"You follow, no one will save you if you fall here. Carly Jasmine said, and Inma agreed, but he didn't seem to be afraid of the heights of the place and the endless valley at his feet, and was just bent on leaving.
