There was no one else in the empty tent, which made Victoria feel a little cramped. But soon, she deliberately used a mocking tone, smiling and taking the lead in breaking the slightly dull atmosphere: "Is there something wrong? Ronald, my esteemed fiancé?"

However, Victoria found that her ridicule did not seem to have any effect. In her line of sight, Ronald was still watching her silently.

The scorching brilliance in the aqua blue pupils made Victoria feel a palpitation for some reason.

She frowned, a little angry.

The next moment, her attention was attracted by a small piece of glittering object that Ronald had taken out.

"What is this?coral?" she raised her eyebrows with interest, guessing what Ronald meant at the moment, "Or is it a treasure with mysterious magical powers?"

"Magic coral, it's a little different from the corals in the sea. Ronald said briefly, holding this small piece of magic coral in his left hand, and took out a dark red fire crystal from his spatial ring: "Look. ”

Victoria found that when the magic crystal in Ronald's hand was less than thirty centimeters away from the magic coral, countless slender and crystalline silk threads suddenly stretched out from the white milk-calcium-like magic coral branches!

These almost completely transparent silk threads stretched and flew in the direction of the magic crystal in Ronald's hand.

With the passage of time, the entire magic coral branch began to flow as if it had a vein of light, and the branch body was glowing with colorful glass color. The brilliance was shining and dazzling, and it was extraordinarily beautiful.

"It's beautiful!"

Victoria, who saw this beautiful scenery for the first time, couldn't help but let out a low breath and a delicate smile bloomed on her face. She happily stuck out her finger and guessed Ronald's intentions: "You, are you going to give it to me?"

Ronald smiled and nodded, "Do you like it, this gift?"

Victoria did not speak, but said her own answer with action. She took the magic coral branch and held it in front of her eyes with love, gazing at the brilliant colors on the milky calcium white stacked branches.

Ronald stood motionless, silently admiring Victoria, who was still playing with the magic coral, and in his eyes, she was like a happy child. After the happiness on her face faded, he explained softly: "This plant, as long as it senses strong magic fluctuations nearby, will stretch out filaments and glow with this brilliant color. Even if they are cut off from the outside world, they can survive for years.

"Thank you for the gift, I loved it. Although her face was calm, Victoria still felt sweet in her heart. She puffed out the corners of her mouth and smiled sweetly at the guy who was silently watching her: "I'll keep it well." ”

As she spoke, she carefully collected the magic coral branches that had gradually begun to fade after absorbing the magic power of the magic crystal into her spatial ring.

"Really, that's great. Ronald lowered his head, he hesitated for a moment in his head, but still said the words that he had planned to say a long time ago: "But...... I guess I can't give you what you really want. ”

Victoria looked up confusedly, "What do I really want?"

She saw that Ronald's expression was serious.

"The time two people spend alone. ”

Hearing these low words, she couldn't help but be stunned, and the smile on her face froze instantly.

Ronald observed this, and he continued: "I need to be strong enough, strong enough to protect a piece of land. Realizing that Victoria seemed to be still in a state of dazed and sluggish, he deliberately accentuated his tone: "So, I have to go outside for more experience and adventure to improve my strength." But it also means that I put myself in a dangerous situation......"

Ronald's deliberately accentuated tone, after all, couldn't help but lower, and finally it was inaudible until he stopped speaking.

Time seemed to stand still, and both of them froze in place, motionless.

The eerie atmosphere of dead silence is broken by Victoria's smile again. She looked up and met Ronald's silent gaze, and she smiled like a spring breeze in March.

"Look at what you say. ”

Victoria looked nonchalant, giggling heartlessly, her shoulders bouncing there. Before the silver bell-like laughter dispelled the coldness in the tent, she realized her indecent behavior, so she hurriedly covered the corners of her mouth: "Don't worry, I know what to do." ”

Ronald kept looking at her, and after being sure that this was true, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Great. Immediately after, he suddenly gave a very serious knightly salute: "I'm sorry, I have to make such a decision, please forgive me for my selfishness." ”

Victoria's hand, which she had just wanted to put down, covered her mouth again: "Okay, I see, Your Excellency Ronald." As if remembering something, she walked out of the tent on her own: "I almost forgot, I still have to go to Uncle Blair, so be it." ”

It was only after walking far away that she raised her head and took a deep breath.

Obligations of royal women......

She couldn't help but feel a little bitter in the corners of her eyes.

Wish......

Call.

Victoria blinked twice, and hid those troubles in the depths of her heart. She dressed up and walked back to her tent.

She took out the magic coral and looked at it with great delight, watching the milky calcium white reflect a colorful halo in the light.

Just when Victoria was a little distraught, Ronald, who was reading a book, heard a low tone coming from outside the tent.

"You're back. ”

He hurriedly put down his book and greeted the dusty mage.

"How's it going, is there a ......?"

The mage shook the dust off his body and interrupted Ronald's slightly eager tone with a smile: "No hurry. ”

Ronald spread his hands.

After the mage released a silent barrier, he took out a thick stack of codex and handed it to Ronald: "I wrote all the information that I thought was important here. ”

Ronald took the parchment codex and skimmed through it, finding it very well documented.

"Thank you, Kerry. ”

"Ha, even if it's that return gift, I haven't had time to thank you yet. The mage raised his head: "Those ancient magic circles have really provided me with a lot of help. ”

Ronald asked curiously: "Then, have you broken through the realm of ** division now?"

The mage shook his head.

"By the way, I have energy drops here, if you need it......" Ronald hurriedly took out the two bottles of energy droplets: "I think, with your semi-transformed body, if you use this, there should be no side effects." ”

"No, I don't need this just yet. The mage smiled confidently on his emaciated cheekbones. After seeing Ronald put the energy droplet into the space ring, he suddenly asked, "By the way, Luo, did Anina use ......?"

Ronald nodded calmly.

"That girl...... mage shook his head, a bitter smile on his face, "After you decided to go to Red Dragon Mountain last time, she ran away again. ”

Ronald realized that during the time he came to Tataya, he really didn't see any trace of Annina. He narrowed his eyelashes, a little worried: "Where did you go? Didn't I leave you a note?"

"Don't worry, she said to continue her training in the Ecles Mountains. The mage took out a wood carving: "For you." ”

Ronald took it and found that it was a statue of a cheetah, carved a little roughly, apparently not very well made.

"Alright, I'm done. ”

Seeing that the mage was about to leave, Ronald stopped him, "Wait, Kerry. ”

The mage tilted his head in confusion.

"There's something else that's about Moon Bay. As he spoke, Ronald took out a simple map and hung it on the tent.

"Moon Bay?"

"That's right!" Ronald nodded firmly, "I'm going to build a harbor and set up a mage tower at the harbor." ”

The mage guessed his intentions, "It's for me?"

"Yes, when the time comes, you can study spells quietly, and you can also help me look. Ronald told the mage what he had already prepared: "As for Blue, I wanted to respect his decision, but the situation is ...... now."

He was silent for a moment, and his tone became firm again: "Although the situation is still calm now, there is no time when the storm will come. I can already smell that fishy smell, Kerry. ”

Hearing this, the smile on the mage's face disappeared.

That's true, and along the way, I heard a lot of Protestant rumors. He frowned, and suddenly asked, "What are the miracles?"

"It's all fake. Ronald replied categorically: "The so-called miracles, if I am not mistaken, are prayers that have long been lost." These unpopular magics are not even known to many high-level mages, let alone those poor people at the bottom?"

He narrowed the corners of his eyes, and his resolute face showed a look of disgust: "It's a pity that those people were fooled and used......"

Seeing the mage's thoughtful expression, Ronald patted his friend on the shoulder. When the mage raised his head to look at him, Ronald raised his head slightly, and pointed at himself confidently: "And I, I will prove to you what God is!"

The mage couldn't help but laugh and teased, "So, you want to become a god?"

"Hah, maybe. Ronald shrugged his shoulders noncommittally: "No matter what, you have to develop your own power first." And also...... Gain the trust of the people. ”

The mage was curious, "Why?"

Ronald smiled wryly and spread his hands: "I don't know much about this...... but soon, he glanced in the direction of the Fire Temple: "I think the fire god there will tell me the answer." ”

"You really ......" the mage lowered his tone, a little worried for him.

"Don't worry, I know what to do. Ronald smiled and took out the codex that the mage handed him, and shook it gently: "There is still time, just wait until I have eaten this thoroughly, and then I will talk." ”

"I heard that the god of fire, but ......"

Ronald raised his hand, interrupting the mage's concerned tone. "I have one more thing that I need your help with. ”

Seeing that Ronald was so confident, the mage smiled in a friendly way: "In that case, then I won't talk more." Say, what else can my old bones do for me?" )
