The Wind Rises Chapter 52 The Gap and the Dark Web
After Charles unceremoniously opened the door, Ziggy was already waiting for Wang Yu and the two of them inside.
At this time, Ziggy took off the knight's armor he wore at the manor and changed into a very elaborate formal suit, and that erudite and knowledgeable temperament suddenly came to the fore, no wonder the Charles would call him Professor.
Zieg sat on the chair, the desk was piled up with various papers, and he looked like he was also working on it, but he should have known about Wang Yu's arrival through something.
"Welcome, Wang Yu, you finally came to report, our side is seriously understaffed, you should be able to share part of it when you come." Ziggy said to Wang Yu with a smile.
"Professor! You were playing tricks on me before! Charles interrupted Zigger's greeting to Wang Yu.
"Charles Ryder, at 7:49 a.m. yesterday morning, performed a magic trick at the East Side Tavern, and used the "dark web" to escape the scene after playing drunk guests to cause a fight. ”
"How many times do you think that according to the rules of the Night's Blade, the unnecessary monetary losses you caused while on a mission are multiply?"
Zieg suddenly smiled at Charles and began to speak, he seemed to be mild-mannered, but at the moment there was a kind of coercion.
"Aha, then I won't bother, then I'll go." Wang Yu saw a sweat slipping down the top of Charles's head, and withdrew with a haha.
With that eerie smile, the professor watched Charles withdraw and close the door, sighed and put away his smile with a helpless expression.
"Charles and Edward are a little unreliable, or the boss can be the best, I hope you can be reliable."
"I do my best." Wang Yu nodded.
"Well, that's the case, Chief Garcia and Father Fang are quite optimistic about you, originally according to the regulations, although you were favored, you also did it from the bottom of the Night Blade."
"However, in order to deal with the increasingly active Void activity and some of the movements brought about by the war. Chaos, we formed this Night Blade Special Operations Group, and after considering various factors and your particularity, we recruited you here. Zigger and Wang Yu explained the current situation.
"Hmm... So what does this task force do. Wang Yu was actually a little curious, what is his current situation, originally thought that he was just coming to the royal city to work and be a local governor of the royal city. Son, it doesn't look the same now?
"Father Fang has mentioned your character, I'll just say it, take the most money, have the best treatment, do the most tiring and dangerous work, we have to take care of small things, and we will be the first to go up to the top of big things."
"Well, it's not that it can't be, but I still want to ask, where did you trust me from, aren't you afraid that someone like me who has no experience will have problems or betrayal."
Wang Yu is not surprised by this job, he is not afraid of dirty, tired, dangerous or anything.
"I'm sorry, but I have to say that we still checked your background, and the intelligence organizations of various countries have no information about you, which means that you basically can't be a spy deliberately cultivated by any kingdom."
"And, actually, I have to say, what we need is talent, and an organization's endless suspicion of its members is pointless, we just look at how well you do." Ziggy explained with a smile.
"No problem, what about my strength, I don't think it's up to the strength level standard of the royal city, even if Charles is also a formal mage level, I can only be regarded as a mid-level trainee knight."
Wang Yu agreed with Zigger's statement, and also asked once again what he doubted, his strength was not outstanding.
According to the horizontal comparison of his age, he grabbed a lot of people who were stronger than himself, and that Wendy, who was four or five years younger than him, could surpass him in physical strength.
"Well, you may lack a sense of your own strength, such as what you did in the manor, according to our investigation, there were as many as 32 mercenaries who died, and one official knight was missing, and there was a spatial rift and a projection of the evil god of death, those were done by you, right?" Ziggy looked into Wang Yu's eyes.
"That's right, the Evil God Projection should be said to have been killed by me and Avia." There was no point in denying it, and Wang Yu generously admitted it.
"Do you know what would happen to Charles, the official mage, if he were to be faced with the same situation as you?" Ziggy asked with a smile?
Wang Yu thought about the scene at that time, and found that even if he was an official knight, he didn't have the targeted preparation or ability to face the siege of thirty-two people and one official knight on a dark and rainy night, and it didn't seem to end well, "Will you die?" ”
Zieg shook his head, "He won't die, he'll run away, and I have to admit that he's really fast." ”
Wang Yu couldn't quite understand why Ziggy wanted to add such a sentence, but he still understood what Ziggy meant.
"Strength is not only your own hard power, your hard power level is indeed weak in our opinion, but the strength you show in battle has long exceeded the level it should be."
"We generally call this kind of artificial, expert, so, Mr. Wang Yu, after that, you may be mainly responsible for fighting and attacking fortifications in our special operations team."
Wang Yu rubbed his chin, this is true, combat effectiveness is never only linked to hard power, strategy, site utilization, and even the difference in direction will cause a great change in a person's combat effectiveness.
A large part of Wang Yu's talent has been added to his combat talent, although his hard power is not as good as many people, but with the blessing of all aspects of ability, his combat effectiveness will stand out in the same class.
"No problem, improving my strength is also what I have to do."
"Okay, then I'll make an identity registration for you."
After Ziggy explained his doubts to Wang Yu, he immediately began to sort out the materials on the table, put a pile of materials behind him, and the table that looked full suddenly emptied, looked for it from the drawer of the table, and took out a piece of parchment with gold edges.
"This is the contract of the God of Order, and it is written the rules that you must follow, so sign it after reading it." Ziggy pushed the gold-rimmed parchment in front of Wang Yu.
"Hmm..."Wang Yu saw this piece of paper, and retrieved his memory a little, there was indeed this thing, and a balance logo was engraved on the top of the parchment, with a feather on the left dial, and a gold coin on the right dial, the Cult of Order, the Divine Emblem.
As long as this divine emblem is engraved, it will be bound by the god of order, and the regulations on it will naturally have mana effect, and at the same time, the more advanced the material of the contract used, the stronger the carrying performance of the divine power, and the more powerful it will be.
Wang Yu confirmed the reliability of this contract and looked at it carefully, the regulations are very relaxed, basically most of the previous ones are the interpretation of some work and the promise of treatment.
I didn't expect the Night Blade to write this part as well, as a special operations team, the basic salary is fifty gold coins per month, and there are many special treatments in all aspects.
And the last three are really important, Wang Yu made a summary of this complex and detailed text.
1 You can't betray the Night Blade before the Night Blade damages him, this degree is clearly regulated and acceptable.
2 Do not maliciously destroy the kingdom, and this degree is also very clear, basically speaking, those laws should not be violated too much, and it is fine.
3Thou shalt not lead to evil spirits, this... It's not very clear, but it's the most absolute.
"Well, no problem" Wang Yu nodded, he was quite satisfied with this contract, and the restrictions could be said to be basically none, except for the last three, it was indeed only to ensure his most basic security, although it had an impact, but it was not big.
"Sign your real name here, then," Ziggy gestured to a place at the very bottom of the parchment for signature.
"Real name..."Wang Yu thought about it, everyone has a real name, basically you don't need to write it out when you sign the contract, as long as you recognize it in your heart, you can make your signature have the effect of your real name.
The more famous ones are the real names of the dragons and the real names of the devils, and the dragons must recite their real names to release dragon magic, and the devils, if their real names are known, they will be enslaved by them.
"And my real name? Let's call Wang Yu..."Wang Yu suddenly found that he didn't seem to know his real name, and everyone should have the intention to know what their real name was when they were born.
But Wang Yu was not born in this world at all, his name was given by his parents, and he has never changed since he was a child.
"But as long as you approve it, then it's okay." With the idea of recognition, Wang Yu signed his name on it, which is in Chinese.
"Where is this text, are you from a remote kingdom, but the scroll doesn't respond, then it does have the effect of your real name instead of a fake, and you should feel a feeling of being bound next, it is a very light shackle of divine power, don't care."
Ziggy glanced at his name signed by Wang Yu, he couldn't understand it, but he was a little interested in being a scholar, but he didn't forget his own work and explained it to Wang Yu.
"Huh? I don't feel that way. As soon as his mind moved, Wang Yu did not feel the sense of restraint brought by the shackles of divine power that Ziggy said.
Under the observation of the inner eye, there is no sign of divine power around, is this, there is a special situation? However, after looking at it and not finding anything wrong, Wang Yu chose to shut up.
"Later, if you can, you can tell me about your writing and language, which seems to be a very regular kind of writing, and I am very interested as a scholar."
Ziggy carefully looked at the Chinese characters written by Wang Yu, and his qualities as a scholar made him pay attention to the content contained in the words written by Wang Yu, and when he put away the contract scroll for Wang Yu to sign his "real name", he made a request to Wang Yu.
"Yes, by the way, I have something I want to convey to Bishop Fang, can I contact him here?" Wang Yu felt that there was nothing wrong with this, and then said the second important purpose of coming here today.
Thinking that the Goblin Chamber of Commerce would naturally react to the kingdom about the problem of the Sewintan armor tablets in those goblins, Wang Yu still felt that it would be best to talk to Bishop Fang again.
And he also needs to ask the Night Lady Eunice, his knowledge of this is basically equal to 0, and Bishop Fang is the real expert.
"Yes, but it's better to ask in person, and just to familiarize you with our "dark web". Ziggy didn't ask Wang Yu what he had to say, he just agreed to his request, and since the contract had been signed, there was no need to be suspicious.
"The "dark web"? Wang Yu heard this concept for the second time, the first time when Ziggy was intimidating Shire. ”
"Follow me." Without directly answering Wang Yu's question, Zige stood up and led Wang Yu towards the door.
Wang Yu followed, and walked with Zig on the aisle outside that looked no different from the corridor of an ordinary mansion.
Ziggy didn't speak at first, and Wang Yu just followed, but after a few minutes, Wang Yu realized that something was wrong, this aisle was too long...
The two walked very fast, in Wang Yu's simple estimate, they had walked a few hundred meters, but they didn't find that the corridor had reached the end, how could there be such a long building... And the decoration of the perimeter is exactly the same as the details of the walls, as if this corridor is completely repeated.
It was very strange, and the fact that he had been hindered by trying to spy out of the corridor with his ripples before, it seemed that the space he and Ziggy were in also had something special about it.
Wang Yu's thinking made his footsteps pause slightly, and the ziggy in front of him obviously noticed this and began to introduce Wang Yu.
"This space is called "Gap", it is a special space, it is a skill in the space system of enchantment, the coverage is probably in the royal city, with the magic projection node on the floating island as the core, covering the entire royal city, in this space, for those who have permission, space has become a relative concept. ”
"As long as you have permission, you can use a large amount of magic power to transfer space in this special space after communicating with the magic circle, but because the magic power consumed is too large, this space is currently only open to a very small number of people."
At the same time, using the power of some wizarding schools to change the internal rules, this space can no longer be transferred spatially, but reduces the distance of the spatial scale in the "gap" by a degree of sixteen to one, and will be magnified in the outside world by sixteen times. ”
"At the same time, through the renovation, the interior of this space is also shown as you see it, the interior of a house, we can apply to the royal family to make some changes to the interior, such as my office."
"Of course, at present, there are only a few organizations of the royal family that have the qualifications to travel through the gaps, and members of a certain level of Night Blade, and I will introduce you later, and now you have to know about this special transportation route called the "dark web". ”
Ziggy pointed to the seemingly repetitive and never-ending corridor, and Wang Yu was a little surprised by the special space that Ziggy was talking about, called "Gap".
The mage's space system spell does have high-level techniques such as space transfer and space bubble to create space gaps, but they are extremely restrictive, and Wang Yu has to sigh at the power of the permanently solidified usable independent space like the "gap".
"These corridors seem to be endless and straight, but in fact, on the spatial scale of the outside, they are traversing the various magical nodes within this royal city, twisting and winding into invisible transportation routes."
Only these magic nodes can support people to enter and exit the "gaps", and the entrances and exits formed by these magic nodes and the transportation routes formed by these corridors have become a "dark web" buried in the base of the city. ”
Wang Yu raised his eyebrows, and under Ziggy's narration, he built a special transportation network covering the entire city in his mind...
It can't be observed by ordinary people, and when you don't know it, there may be people flying through the space that intersects with you but does not intersect, and you never know where these people will jump out, and these routes combine with each other to form this "dark web".
"It means a lot, this provides more than a little bit of maneuverability, sixteen times the speed, and at the same time can go forward at will without hindrance."
"Dark web, it is indeed a very appropriate name" Wang Yu thought to himself, he once again realized the particularity of this world, and the miracle that is almost unimaginable on the earth does not seem to be an impossible thing here.
"And many special and important places are also linked to the dark web, although some too important places are blocked from the dark web for security and other considerations, but the priest Fang we are going to is still covered by the dark web."
"It's very convenient, as a member of the special operations team, you also have to memorize the various nodes of the dark web in and out of the city, Charles is very skilled at this, but he doesn't use it for serious business at all."
"Look at the doors in these corridors, the number of each door that appears is the number of the node exit, I will give you the corresponding map later, you must memorize them."
Wang Yu nodded, and looked at the door that suddenly appeared in the corridor that Ziggy was referring to, it was a wooden door that was exactly the same as the style of the corridor, and it was very similar to the door that Ziggy opened by Charles, except that there was a door number at the top, which had its own number.
"Go ahead, the Cult of Light's darknet node isn't here." Ziggy began to pick up his pace and began to run wildly through the hallway.
Wang Yu also ran along, Ziggy ran very fast, this clerk's physical fitness was the same as what Charles said, very good, and the speed of running out was not like a civil official at all, but like a knight, Wang Yu also had to use seventy percent of his speed.
Passing through the doors that appeared one after another on the side of the corridor, in front of the doors that reappeared, Ziggy stopped, "This is it, and then I'll talk about the method used, you already have the certificate, I don't need to send it to you again" Turning around, Ziggy pointed to Wang Yu's right hand.
"This?" Wang Yu raised his right hand, which was the armor left to him by the old knight with the mark of the Night's Blade.
"That's right, use your psychic power to activate it, and press it on the door." Ziggy confirmed Wang Yu's doubts.
Once again a little curious about the identity of the old knight, Wang Yu touched the mark with his spiritual power, and immediately, the carving of the sword piercing the eyeball was activated again, Wang Yu put his hand on the door panel, the door loosened, and in a burst of magic from the surrounding space, it opened...
