Chapter 2: Where the Stars Fall
"Bang!"
When the man was about to smash down the big log, an orange flame suddenly released in front of him, and the big man suddenly threw away the wood to cover his face, and then dragged the terrifying long sound into the distance.
Ye Xiao got up a little sadly, even if the person behind him who saved him said sorry to him, he took into account the barbarism of this world, but he didn't expect that it was so easy to take people's lives, and it was still his own life.
"Thank you, hero." Ye Xiao looked behind him, and the whole person was like a person hiding in a broken sack.
The latter obviously felt strange about Ye Xiao's name, he lifted his hood, revealing his old cheeks, "Oh, my child, I'm your teacher!" ”
"Teacher? Hello. As a small businessman in this world, his identity is obviously educated, he doesn't know the relationship between each other, the other party's name, so he can only say indifferently, "My grocery store was robbed." ”
"I know, it's hard for you, child, I didn't expect the people from the church to come that day, but it's okay, as a great magician, you can't be tied down to a grocery store." The old man sighed, "We have decided to let you stay at the meeting place to learn more about the extraordinary world. ”
"Is there anything to eat?" Ye Xiao didn't know how to reply to what the old man said, so he changed the topic.
"Yes, I'll take you there." The old man buttoned his hood as he spoke, then lit the horse lamp on his waist, led Ye Xiao for about half a mile, helped him to a donkey cart, and then the two continued to walk in the dark.
Ye Xiao got two pieces of news from his teacher, one is that he is an organized person, and what is happening to this body now has a lot to do with him joining this organization, and the second is that this seems to be a Western fantasy world.
This makes Ye Xiao, who is lonely in life, seem to have found a little fun, or great fun.
The donkey cart came to midnight, the moon came out, and under the broken ditch of a wasteland, Ye Xiao saw an abandoned castle by the moonlight, which was not only broken, but really broken.
Half of the wall had collapsed, the gap was very large, and there were many trees on the side, but it didn't seem to be of much use.
"Here we are, our meeting place, the castle of the stars." The old man said loudly, as if he was still a little proud.
Ye Xiao looked at the ditch and thought about it carefully, eighty percent of this castle was located on a cliff, but unfortunately the cliff collapsed.
"Now that you're here, there's something I should tell you." The teacher looked at Ye Xiao seriously, pointed to the black castle and said, "Our own people call this place Paradise Lost." ”
"Don't you say yes outside?" Ye Xiao said thoughtfully when he heard this.
"That's right, those sanctimonious guys have all the good names!" The teacher said angrily, "Only this star-fallen land deserves such a name!" ”
Obviously, the guy who occupies the name can't afford to offend, but there must be many ways to justify the name of such a thing, such as the initiator of the party, whose surname is very round.
"I made a note of it." Ye Xiao nodded, looked at the figure lying by the tree like a corpse, and saw that the teacher did not react, so he didn't care.
Although the castle has partially collapsed, there is still a lot of space, enough to compare to a small town.
Put the donkey cart at the entrance, the teacher came down with a bucket from above, he wanted to hand it to Ye Xiao, but he was worried that he couldn't hold it, so he ordered Ye Xiao to follow him.
Entered the hall of the leaky castle, there were already people staying there, what the original castle was like Ye Xiao didn't know, but now the decoration here is a rough room, a few broken chairs are the only furniture, around the two fires in the middle, and there is a bubbling cauldron on one of the fires.
The fellows in the chairs did not get up when they saw the two men coming in, only an old woman greeted them and said, "Our magician is here, and this time he has brought the food that was about to be thrown away from the tavern?" ”
"Of course not, it's magic items that I planted, and they're delicious whether they're boiled or baked." The teacher put the wooden barrel down, then pulled two chairs and sat down with Ye Xiao.
"Has the hairdresser forgotten the rules? Apprentices and attendants are to remain outside. Seeing the two of them sit down, a strong man in the corner said loudly, "We are nobles in the dark, and we can't surrender our identities." ”
"My disciple, an apprentice in magic, will be stationed in the Land of the Fallen Stars as a full member, and he has no home left in order to gain access to the occult realm." The teacher said, "As a new member, I will give you a greeting gift on his behalf. ”
"What is it?" Several others also asked.
"An improved recipe for copper ore purification, which I got outside." The teacher said firmly.
"The Alchemist Guild of Oudes?" The crowd exclaimed, "Does it work?" ”
"It works, I've experimented with it myself, and you must know that in order to get it, I paid ten gold tales at the auction." The teacher said, "If it weren't for the fact that the people of the church didn't know the intricate symbols on it, this thing would be worth at least a thousand gold talers." ”
"The confiscated ones won't tell the church what it's written on, but my wolf claws can add some blades to it." The strong man stood up and looked at Ye Xiao and said, "I'm Werewolf Tony, welcome to your joining, Magician Apprentice." ”
"Wizard Chibana, welcome to you." The witch also stood up.
"Ollie the Alchemist."
"Vampire Alex."
"Druid Radiance."
"Brando the Reincarnated."
None of the others except the witch and werewolf got up, and while the recipe was good, an apprentice wasn't qualified to give them that much attention.
"Hello everyone, my name is Lu Se, and I am a magic apprentice, but I still want everyone to call me Ye Xiao."
"Night stalkers?" Ollie wondered.
"Howling?" Alex was taken aback.
"Samael, armed with a gun coated with bile at the tip, stood in front of the howling Cerberus of the night, spreading death as he went." The teacher sighed and said to Ye Xiao, "Words related to Satan's name and description are not allowed to be used privately, otherwise it will invite bad luck, I know you want to rush to get rid of this failed name, but it will require your efforts, if you can read through the books in the library, I don't mind giving you my surname." ”
"Thank you, teacher." Ye Xiao saluted slightly when he heard this, this kind of words that were almost like scolding in his previous life may be a glorious gift in this world.
The teacher nodded with satisfaction, in the case that ordinary bankrupt small businessmen would choose to die, his disciple was able to quickly devote himself to the occult, which can be said to be firm-willed.
