Chapter 166: On the way
Early in the morning, in a slightly dilapidated room, Sean rolled over in bed in a daze.
Losing the blocking of the curtains, warm sunlight poured on his face through the transparent windows, and the brightness of the room gradually increased, making him feel a little uncomfortable in his sleep.
Sean muttered a few times, and subconsciously pulled Celia, who was lying on the side, into his arms.
His hands groped around Celia until he found the most comfortable position and clenched his back.
The power of habit is terrifying, even when he is away from home, Sean will use Celia as a pillow when he sleeps, otherwise there is always a strange feeling when he is left alone in bed.
Of course, under his movements, Celia also gradually woke up, she carefully glanced at the owner who was pressing on her, and then gently adjusted her posture.
As for wake-up calls? Are you kidding.
Although Sean is usually easy to talk to, she will never spoil her slave too much, and if she really dares to do such a thing, she will definitely be severely punished.
……
And just like that, another long time passed.
It wasn't until Celia was about to fall asleep again that Sean finally sat up from the bed.
"Suddenly I feel like I've stepped back in time......
Stretching hard, he breathed a long sigh of relief, looking at the familiar and unfamiliar room, Sean said with some emotion.
This is Lauren's Mage Tower, or what used to be "Lauren's Mage Tower".
Yesterday, when Sean had left Teresa with Celia, it was nearly noon, and after a long drive in a row, it was not until nightfall that he saw the path that had long been covered with plants.
Impressed, Sean cleared the trail with a spell and ordered the groom to drive deeper into the jungle, only to see the tower again after the carriage had been bumped for a while.
Compared to two years ago, it looks even more dilapidated now, after all, the real mage tower is only qualified to be built by professionals of the official level and above, and this kind of ordinary building that only has an appearance and no core can't be kept clean after losing its owner.
But even so, living in this tower is naturally a good choice compared to sleeping in the wild.
It only took ten minutes for Sean to inspect the entire tower, and since the room he once lived in was still relatively intact, he cleaned it and moved in temporarily with some household items.
When I woke up today, in a trance, Sean seemed to have returned to the days when he was dedicated to learning knowledge and trying to become a professional......
"Ha, what a change."
He put on his clothes and walked alone to the window, where the harvest sun shone into the woods outside the window.
This is the same scenery as before, but the difference is that at this moment, he is no longer the powerless ordinary person he once was.
"Alright, let's go."
After a moment's pause, Sean raised his hand to raise the staff of reincarnation into his hand and said to Celia who was standing aside.
An apprentice-level wish was completed in the blink of an eye, and the messy mattress and sheets shook in the air a few times, and finally folded quickly and landed accurately into the box next to them.
I have to say that the extraordinary power of the mage is still very convenient in life, especially the wish technique, which has little effect in actual combat, but the spell with excellent auxiliary effect is a panacea for dealing with all kinds of trivial matters.
All it takes is a slight sweep of mental power, whether it is tidying up the room or cleaning oneself, it can be done in a single thought of Sean.
When things were all taken care of, Sean breathed a sigh of relief, and he walked out of the door with the box floating behind him, and glanced behind him with some nostalgia.
If you leave this time, you will probably never come back, so let this place that carries your past completely annihilate in nature and turn it into a memory in the depths of your mind.
Celia followed him without saying a word, without making a sound to disturb.
Of course, she could see that her master had some connection to this place, but she didn't dare to ask about this kind of thing, so as not to attract her master's displeasure.
……
After walking some distance, Sean snapped his fingers, and the apprentice-level mind control spell was unleashed again, covering a room beside him.
Soon after, the door opened, and the coachman, whom he had controlled yesterday, staggered out of it and followed him without saying a word.
Alternating mind control and sleeping elixirs, this unlucky bastard's autonomous consciousness is in a state of confusion all day long, this is the fate of the weak in this world, and they can only be slaughtered by the strong, and they are not qualified to resist.
Descending the stairs, Sean reached the hall on the first floor, where the dust and cracked ornaments made it look like a mess, and after some distance, near the door, a carriage was parked.
Removing the guards that had been improvised around him, Sean and Celia returned to the carriage.
His plan was quite thorough, and when he was in the Silver Leaf Tribe, Sean secretly put some supplies in the carriage for them to use on the road.
The wheels creaked against the rotting planks scattered on the ground, and a breath of fresh air poured through the windows as the carriage pulled out of the mage's tower.
Sean let out a long sigh of relief and poked his head out the window, not looking back at the dilapidated tower behind him, but looking ahead.
It's just a trainee level, and his journey has just begun!
……
……
……
"According to the ancient books handed down by the Silver Leaf Tribe, when the legends of the Terrans worked together to create the Faeron Continent, although they had mastered the power beyond the gods, they still felt very difficult about how to create a perfect sun."
"Originally, the legends wanted to draw a scoop according to the gourd, according to the tens of thousands of worlds they were born into, hang a huge fireball into the sky, and use the super-large legendary ritual magic to make it run in the sky again and again, so as to maintain the normal operation of the Faeron Continent."
"But there's a huge problem with this design, and that's that the Feron Continent is too big!"
"You know, at that time, the land area of a world was basically between 10 million square kilometers and 1 billion square kilometers, but what about the Faren Continent? That's 160 billion square kilometers!"
"This is not a difference of several times or dozens of times, but thousands of times!"
"In the face of such a huge world, the naturally evolved operating system of the sun, moon, stars, and so on is absolutely impossible, unless the legends do not go anywhere, they stay in the sky above the plane of Faeron all day long, moving the sun and moon that have been magnified countless times, and constantly providing energy to them—this is of course unrealistic."
Sean reached out and stroked Celia's head, pointing to the Elven language in the book in front of him.
Because he was really bored on the way, when he saw these books related to astronomical phenomena and the laws of nature, he suddenly became interested in explaining some knowledge to Celia.
Although she doesn't have the talent to become a professional, she is not completely out of hope, and when Sean is promoted to the official level, things may turn around.
And this knowledge is the foundation, which can make Celia's future spellcaster's path smoother, so Sean is not stingy with this, and often takes Celia to learn some superficial content.
"Hmm...... How did the Legends solve it?"
Obviously, Celia couldn't read the elven language of the book, and she squinted comfortably, lazily enjoying her master's caresses.
"Hehe, that's a good question."
"You can guess first, there is a reward for guessing correctly, guess wrong...... There are punishments too!"
Sean said this, gently licking Celia's pointed ears, causing a blush to instantly appear on her face.
"Just a hint, Legends have great powers and can do a lot of incredible things, just a slight change of thinking, and the difficulties will be overcome
And solved."
He reached out and closed the book in front of him, smiling at Celia in his arms.
"Okay, okay!"
Celia immediately tensed, straightening herself up and trying to figure out the answer to her question.
As the minutes passed, the carriage was moving forward unhurriedly, and the punishment in the master's mouth made Celia dare not slack off, she stole a glance at the sunlight pouring in from the car window, and a bold idea suddenly appeared in her heart.
"Hmm...... Well...... That ......."
"Let the ground revolve around the sun?"
In the silence, Celia blurted out these words, but the moment she said them, she immediately regretted them.
How is it possible for the earth to revolve around the sun, and if the world is like this, then when it turns above the sun, everything on the earth falls?
"Really?"
Sean was silent for a moment, then suddenly grabbed the staff of reincarnation beside him and quickly chanted a spell.
"Apprentice Spell - Soul Torture"
The light covered Celia's cheeks, causing her eyes to fall into a state of confusion, and she was unsurprisingly controlled by Sean's all-out spell.
"Tell me how that idea came about."
Looking at Celia with a blank face, Sean asked such a question.
"It occurred to me that since the sun can't revolve around the ground, then it can only be made to revolve around the sun."
A painful look appeared on Celia's face, her self-consciousness had been suppressed, and she was forced to recall the scene under the influence of the spell.
"What else? Did You Know...... Earth."
After a moment's hesitation, Sean enveloped his surroundings with his mental power, and he asked the question again, saying the word earth three times in English, Chinese, and the lingua franca.
"Earth, no memories have been found."
The pain eroded Celia's mind, memories from childhood churned in her head, and under the control of the spell, she repeatedly retrieved the memories associated with them, and finally replied.
"Okay...... Maybe I'm overthinking."
Seeing that Celia did not show any abnormality, Sean breathed a sigh of relief, he quickly lifted the spell shrouded in Celia's body, and quickly rummaged through the box on the side, and finally took out a bottle of potion from the bottom and fed it to her mouth, who was already close to being unconscious.
This is a soul nourishing elixir that can restore minor soul and mental injuries, and just such a small bottle is worth hundreds of gold coins.
"Hmm......"
The effect of the potion was very good, and under Sean's gaze, Celia's somewhat dull gaze gradually became smart.
"Master, I was wrong, please don't ......."
She hugged Sean's thigh with a little crying, obviously tossed by the sharp pain just now.
Compared with the physical body with neurotransmission limitations, the pain in the soul is even more unbearable, and even Celia, who has excellent endurance, has some palpitations at the moment.
"It's okay, it's okay, I won't use that spell on you anymore, rest for a while, and it will be fine soon."
Sean reassured, reaching out and gently pressing her temple.
There are very few spells in the probation level that can retrieve memories, so he can only choose the closest effect to the psychic torture to find the answer to the question, fortunately, although this spell will cause great pain to the recipient, it will not leave sequelae if used for a short time.
What's more, he also prepared a bottle of precious soul nourishing potion, which was completely enough for Celia to return to her normal state in a short period of time.
It's just that the things of the other world still make him feel confused from time to time after all.
"Hey......
Sean let out a long sigh as he continued to soothe Celia's emotions and help her fall into a deep sleep.
"The ground revolves around the sun, which is really whimsical."
Sean stared
Celia's long hair and gaze gradually became hollow.
Different worlds, different rules, is this possible?
And most importantly, what about the colorful and bizarre cultures? What kind of power can influence a world for hundreds of billions of years, so that it can move forward in a fixed track without realizing it?
……
"Let's do what is in front of us first."
After thinking about it repeatedly and not being puzzled, Sean looked up with a wry smile.
So, he opened the elven book again and re-read the deeds of the legends of the past.
"Like the Will of the Abyss and the Eye of Judgment, the Legends have pooled their power and wisdom to create what is known as the Eternal Sun, a secondary plane."
"At the heart of the Eternal Sun is the Nether Core, which can generate massive amounts of energy out of thin air, and a super alchemical life like the Will of the Abyss, but it has no self-consciousness and only mechanically carries out the orders left by the great legend."
"That is—let the projection of the Eternal Sun sub-plane streak across the sky on time during the day, bringing a steady stream of light and heat to the Feron Continent."
"And so it is with the Immaculate Moon."
