Chapter 185: The Traditional Performing Arts of the Dull Mao Family (Ask for Subscription)
In short, Liu Yuan participated in another Christmas Eve that was no different from last night - except that the stage was demolished and only a big screen with movies was left, the rest of the part was no different from what he experienced yesterday.
Except for Liu Yuan, Nero, Elizabeth, Tamamo Cat, and Steno, everyone else seemed to have collective amnesia, and they all thought that it was Christmas.
But in fact, the date contradicts their claims, showing December 26, the day after Christmas. At the very least, this shows that they haven't been turned back in time, and this is not the beginning of some endless Christmas.
The other people's strange appearance reminded Liu Yuan of Olga Marie, I'm afraid that the memory of the whole day yesterday was sung by Nero and Elizabeth........
These two aunts and grandmothers are really strategic weapons, and they are terrifying.
The sleepy-eyed Christmas party was over, and then it was time to exchange gifts.
There are many people in Chaldea, and it is not practical to give one to everyone, so everyone only picks the best people to send it.
Among them, Liu Yuan received the most gifts.
Enkidu gave him a white robe of the same style, but with a hood, which made him look a little more like a magician.
Matthew gave him a men's tie, which looked quite formal, but Liu Yuan hadn't figured out where to use it.
Roman was probably the most perfunctory of all, so he gave him a packet of dried fries, which he called the last junk food in the world. Liu Yuan thinks that since he likes junk food so much, he shouldn't have to eat the main meal (sneer).
And the gift given by Leonardo da Vinci was Liu Yuan's favorite - a hollowed-out mechanical pocket watch.
The shell is silver, without a lid, and the surface is transparent, allowing you to see the intricate mechanical gears inside, and the black hands and silver Roman characters are not very conspicuous in the openwork design, but you can definitely see it if you want to see it.
Underneath the pocket watch is a round piece of transparent glass, through which you can see the back of the mechanism, which is very ornamental. Holding the pocket watch in your hand, you can clearly hear the click of the gears.
The mechanical pocket watch does not need to be driven by any electricity, does not need to be equipped with batteries, does not use solar energy, and is completely an independent device.
Relying on the precise movement of the gears and the little kinetic energy of twisting the clockwork alone can make the hands move precisely by seconds, what an incredible processmanship, Liu Yuan does not believe that no one understands this.
"The clockwork must be rewound once a day, otherwise the pocket watch will stop. But don't worry about accuracy, I can guarantee that even if I run it continuously for a week, the time difference will not exceed 0.3 seconds. Da Vinci smiled at Liu Yuan and commented.
"You're bothered." Liu Yuan carefully put it in his pocket and nodded to her, "I like this gift very much, thank you Da Vinci." ”
"MerryChristmas❤" Leonardo da Vinci winked at Liu Yuan, "By the way, there is a special magic attached to this pocket watch, the name is 'Sea Spirit Protection', you should know what I mean." ”
"Whoa......"
Of course, Liu Yuan knew that Da Vinci's wave of work meant several things.
The so-called 'Sea Spirit Protection', just listening to the name, you can know that it is a magic trick that works in the waterside environment, which inevitably makes Liu Yuan think about it.
As we all know, the next peculiar point they will set foot on is a sea peculiarity point, following Captain Drake across the ocean and fighting naval battles on a ship.
Da Vinci and Roman were spoiled by Liu Yuan on the first day, and they had a preliminary understanding of the direction of the 'plot', so as long as they were not stupid, they naturally had to prepare early before entering those peculiar points with different threats, and try to sweep away the troubles that might arise later, adding convenience to the masters and servants.
The pocket watch that Leonardo da Vinci gave to Liu Yuan was not only a Christmas gift, but also a protective measure provided by the Chaldea to Liu Yuan.
The so-called 'Protective Magic' is similar to the blessing given to Artoria by the elves of the lake. To put it simply, just activating this magic will allow the magician to stand on the surface of the water for a short period of time.
At the peculiar point surrounded by the sea on all sides, who knows if Liu Yuan will fall into the sea due to various circumstances. Even if he can swim, he can't exert his strength when he is immersed in the seawater, and he is easily targeted by the enemy.
And this magic kept on the pocket watch can not only prevent him from becoming a soup chicken, but also allow Liu Yuan to stand on the sea in an emergency, without losing his agility, which can be said to be quite practical.
Although Liu Yuan still doesn't know what this 'Sea Spirit Protection' is, he also knows very well that this thing should be able to work in the next peculiar point.
Liu Yuan and Da Vinci exchanged a 'you understand, I understand, everyone understands' look, and then looked at Olga Marie who was standing next to Matthew, and suddenly put on a proud face.
"Okay, Lord Chang, don't mother-in-law, hand over your gift quickly, I'll leave you."
"Huh?!" Olga Marie, who was about to reach into her pocket, became upset when she heard this, "Who told you that I would give you a gift?" Ha! It's beautiful to think about! ”
Olga Marie hugged her hands, her face was flat, and her mouth was deflated, and everyone knew that she was starting to lose her temper again.
Liu Yuan ignored this completely, and snorted from his nostrils with the expression of a straight man with low EQ who couldn't find a girlfriend.
"Dead duck with a hard mouth, what's in your right pocket?"
Olga Marie's nose wrinkled, and she didn't hide it anymore, her right hand went into her pocket, and she threw a pair of black deerskin gloves that showed her fingers and the back of her hands, a bit like the polar suit sent by the second part of FGO, on Liu Yuan's face.
"Don't get me wrong, I didn't go out of my way to get you any presents, but it's Christmas, so it's just a basic courtesy....... Feed! Are you listening to me?! ”
"Huh? Listening, listening. Liu Yuan replied casually while putting the deerskin gloves on his hands.
He carefully put on his gloves, put them in front of him for a moment, and then clenched his fists.
"It's quite comfortable to wear, and it has a magic reaction, does this glove have any additional effects?"
Olga Marie clasped her hands and snorted: "It's just a simple elemental enchantment, and the weapon you hold is not easy to get rid of." ”
"I see, thanks."
Liu Yuan smiled at Olga Marie, who blushed slightly.
"It's nothing ...... about this."
The Christmas party was over, and everyone dispersed.
Liu Yuan volunteered to stay and tidy up the cafeteria, but for some reason, he also specially named Artoria to stay together.
Originally, Artoria was reluctant, but when Liu Yuan said that he could make her dessert, the Dumb Hair King immediately behaved like anything.
Around midnight, everyone was already asleep.
If it was normal, the others would not care for the time being, Roman and Leonardo da Vinci, who were often in the control room, would definitely still be cultivating immortals. However, since tonight was Christmas Eve, everyone was a little tired after the celebration, so Olga Marie took the initiative to give everyone a holiday and let them sleep well.
Including Olga Marie herself is no exception, she should almost have a good rest, otherwise she doesn't know if her body will be damaged, and her spirit will definitely fail.
In the middle of the night, in the corridor illuminated by the faint light, two figures sneakily walked towards the living quarters.
"That, Master."
"Huh?"
Liu Yuan turned his head to look at Artoria.
The Dumb Hair King touched the black Santa hat he was wearing on his head in distress, looked at the Christmas dress he was wearing, and wondered, "Why do you want me to wear this dress?" Hopefully it's understandable that I'll be asked to give gifts, but is cross-dressing really necessary? ”
"Nonsense, isn't this your traditional art ability to stay in the Mao family, when will you not show off at this time?"
