Chapter 17: The Legend of the Singer 'Golden Flame Rose'
The citrine lamps above the head rotate silently, emitting a steady glow, and the table below is lined with a variety of prepared delicacies, with a bubbling hot soup in the middle, including winter melon and pork ribs, stir-fried vegetables, and steamed pastries.
Today, not only Grandma He, Heshia, He Cheng, and Lisha's family also came, and the six of them sat around the dining table eating dinner, occasionally talking.
"It's been a long time since I've gotten together to eat, and it's hard to get all of them today." Grandma He spoke.
"You usually have your own affairs, and they live far away from An......," Grandma He said that Li'an is her other two children, but she is not currently in Arpeggio City, and she is very old.
"It's okay, there are a few of us to accompany you, grandma." He Cheng and his sister are the grandchildren of Grandma He, and their parents have been gone for a long time.
"Hehe, it's good that you can be safe, I don't have to care, I'll live long enough anyway." Grandma He is very open-minded.
"Forget it, don't talk about it, come on, eat and eat, I prepared it with my heart today, you don't have anything left." Laughter echoed through the house.
After dinner, Hehia returned to her bedroom, where she had time to reflect on what had happened in the bathroom.
Is it frozen, she muttered in her heart, then looked at the water cup on the table, thought about it, and poured out a little and put it in her palm.
The black eyes once again appeared with a light blue glow, and then the water droplets in the palm of the palm quickly gathered and condensed, turning into transparent ice beads of different sizes, and a trace of cold touch also came from the skin.
Slipping the ice beads in her palm onto the table, Heshea picked up one of them, closed her eyes, and observed carefully, the ability of Withering Sequence 2 - Dark Visit was activated, and the situation in the ice beads was also carefully reflected in her mind.
This feeling......
Hesia got up and left the bedroom, went to the kitchen on the first floor, and then opened the refrigerator door, pulled out the frozen layer, and buckled a small ice cube.
Returning to the room, the girl compares the differences between the two ice cubes, and the tiny structures appear to be reflected in her consciousness as if they have been searched with a magnifying glass.
Compared with the neatly structured ice cubes, which have no gaps, the internal structure of the ice cubes in the refrigerator can be described as messy, and there are many tiny gaps in them, and it is precisely because of these gaps that the ice cubes are opaque and appear whitish.
After a long look at it, Heshia put down the ice cubes.
Although she can't fully define, she already knows part of the effect of her talent, which is to freeze, or re-condensate, and re-aggregate the originally scattered molecules according to a certain law.
Does this ability only work for water droplets, or does it work with other substances? Heshia had such thoughts.
Soon she found other things to experiment with, such as salt grains in the kitchen, sugar, oil, and so on.
The salt and sugar that have been heated and melted are condensed into crystals again under the action of the ability, and even the previous magazines are precipitated, which is extraordinarily pure.
The oils are more peculiar, showing a gradient of color, as if arranged according to the length of the molecular chain.
By the end of the experiment, it was already late, and Hehia stopped because she would disturb the others and had to go to work tomorrow.
Let's go to the store tomorrow and ask, there are a few maid sisters who are very knowledgeable and should know more.
Time passed, and soon the next day came.
Because of the excitement last night, Heshia actually had insomnia for a long time before falling asleep, and it took a while to crawl out of the bed after the alarm went off.
Splash some water on her face to sober herself up, and after washing up, Hehia set out on her way to work.
Head to the vertical elevator to the upper level of Arpeggio City, then take the vertical rail car to the city center, then pass through security at the base of the Peak Star Tower, and enter inside.
It was only 8 o'clock, and most of the people who came in and out of the elevator were employees, of all shapes, some in suits and leather shoes, some in dirt-resistant overalls, etc., and Heshia stood in it as inconspicuous as a gray duckling.
After a few minutes of patient waiting, the elevator kept going up, and the passengers kept going out, and when the floor was more than 35 floors, there were only two people left inside, and in addition to Hesia, there was a working lady in a gray dress.
She looked at Heshia with a hint of curiosity, then asked.
"You're going to work at Ruri Dream, right?"
"Ah...... Yes. Hehia was amazed that she could guess it.
"Hehe, there are only 4 floors up further, and the observation deck on the top of the building will not be open, and there is only the dream of glass, and the government agency of Arpeggio City, you are so small, you are definitely not an employee of a government agency, so you are also a new employee of the dream of glass."
"I see." The girl nodded.
"What's your code name, I'll go to Liulimeng to sit down in a few days when I'm free, and take a look at you."
"The code name is 'Daintellen', but I'm still in my internship."
"'Daintellen,' I made a note of it." The working lady was thoughtful.
After leaving the elevator, Heshea arrives at Glass Dream, which is not yet open, but Belfinger has not yet arrived, so she can only wait.
One after another, the maids changed their clothes, some of them knew Heshia, and some of them were very strange.
"Is 'Daintellen' waiting for someone?" A blond-haired, plump maid stopped in front of her.
"Yes, Sister Andesia." The girl nodded in salute.
"That rabbit probably slept lazy again, she often plays games late late, you come with me." Anthesia asked Heshia to follow her upstairs to change clothes.
After opening the door with his own employee rights, Andasia led her and Thea to the dressing room to change her clothes and then combed her hair.
However, each has its own style, and Andesia did not choose to wear a cat-ear headband for Heshia, but chose a blooming white and green cut chrysanthemum, which was fastened to the side of Heshia's head with a special hairpin, like a small crown, and the hairband and the bow on the collar also used green and white color scheme, giving people a natural and elegant style.
After dressing up, Andasia nodded slightly, seeming satisfied, before taking Heshia to work in the store.
"In the morning, you will work in my flower room, water the flowers, and then I will teach you some details of the work."
"Uh-huh."
Compared to other bars or maids' working environments, Andesia's flower room does make Heshia feel much less stressed, and it is also very quiet.
Seeing the expectant and serious look in Hesia's eyes, Andesia smiled again and helped her fix her bangs.
"Just don't be boring."
There are not many customers in the morning, after all, at this point, most people are working, and only a few idle people will get up early and come to the shop to talk to the maid, or to party with friends.
In the transparent flower room separated by glass, vines are everywhere, and the flowers and plants cultivated in the potted plants are growing vigorously, and some are still blooming.
"This pot is an aster flower, just water it in moderation, it's easier to raise, and the pot next to it is a wild lily, you can't water too much......" Andesia instructed Heshia while telling her about the habits of various flowers and plants, as well as the language of flowers.
Hehia listened while watering, although she was a little sleepy today, her memory seemed to be exceptionally good, maybe this is also the benefit of talent awakening?
After introducing the flowers and plants that are common on one side of the flower room, Andesia began to introduce some of the flowers and plants that have extraordinary effects.
"This pot of cold treadmill will emit cold when the room temperature exceeds 20 degrees to reduce the surrounding temperature, although the effect of a single pot is not large, but the upper layer of the flower house is a circle, which is why this flower room is not hot and comfortable, in addition to the weak effect of purifying the air, of course, you can't rely too much on it." Anthesia showed Heshia the rows of green and white vines hanging from the flower room.
"No wonder." The girl blinked, feeling a little fresh.
Although the transcendent plant is in the study, the textbook has talked about it, but seeing it with your own eyes is another matter.
"These spider plants are generally taken care of by me, because I major in the natural sequence, if I don't go to work for a while, you can go to 'Baqin', she is also a natural sequence, you can help take care of it." (Bathin): The 18th of King Solomon's 72 Pillar Demon Gods, the image of a snake-tailed man riding a suited horse. It can distinguish between herbs and gems, and can also teleport people. )
"The other pots, that pot is the wolf chrysanthemum, the orange is bright as gold, the petals have extraordinary medicinal effects, well, when the flowering period is over in June, you can pick the petals and store them.
"This pot is an edelweiss lily, light and fluttering, in ancient times, pinching the edelweiss lily can make you slowly fall from a very high place, but now it is more ornamental, many girls like this flower."
Hyshea spent the morning studying, as if she was back in school, and Andesia was a very good teacher and senior, teaching Hirsia how to take care of these flowers, and at the same time telling them their origins, uses, and messages.
Time passed imperceptibly, and at noon Andasia took Heshia to the staff cafeteria, and then in the afternoon he took Heshia to another maid's place of work.
"'Boutis', 'Daintellen' will be handed over to you in the afternoon." Andessia spoke to the emerald maid in front of her as she pulled out Heshea, who was hiding behind her.
"Hehe, no problem~☆"
(Botis: The 17th of King Solomon's 72 Pillars, one of his forms is an ugly serpent who, when summoned by a magician, takes on a human form, wielding a horn and a sword. He knows the past and the present, and distinguishes friend from foe. )
The maid of Andesia's age was also of good shape, with waist-length wavy emerald hair, and a glass cubicle behind her resembling a thick rainforest, covered with green leaves and poisonous flowers, including brightly colored poison dart frogs and slender snakes.
If both of them opened a plant glass house, then 'Andesia' and 'Butis' are simply completely different styles.
The 'Andesia' side is quiet and warm and relaxed, while the 'Boutis' side is dangerous and poisonous and tense, no wonder Heshia is a little scared, after all, there is a verdant snake in front of you watching you spit out letters, how can your heart be furious.
When Andesia was gone, Boutise came with a smile on her face.
"Is 'Daindian' scared?" Looking at the cute girl who didn't dare to move, this big sister seemed interested.
"Come in first." As she spoke, she dragged the reluctant Heshia into the poisonous rainforest, and Heshea could even see some scary bugs crawling on the ground.
"Are these all poisonous?" The girl finally couldn't help but ask.
"yes, and it's very toxic, hehe."
"But don't worry, the store always has serum, so it doesn't matter if you get bitten." She turned her head and told the girl not to worry.
"Don't be too afraid, after all, this is not really a wild place, these little guys inside have been trained by me, and they are also very obedient and will not bite people."
That being said, Hehia was still uneasy.
"Alright, here it is." After walking a short distance, 'Boutis' led Heshia to a small pool in the depths, which was clear and surrounded by stones.
"Come, sit by the pool, and I'll teach you the afternoon."
Pulling Heshia to sit down, Boutise took a bell from her waist and shook it gently, and a light and pleasant sound followed.
This simple music does not bring people auditory feelings, Heshia can even feel a light and pleasant mood from it, making her nervous much calmer, and with the sound of bells, there is also a sound of rustling in the rainforest, and poisons of different shapes crawl out of it, colorful, so that Heshia does not dare to look closely, so she has to close her eyes.
"Alright, this will allow 'Daindian' to open his eyes." Boutis's voice came.
The girl cautiously opened one eye, but the pool was surrounded by all kinds of poisonous snakes, scorpions, spiders, arrows, poison frogs, and she was so frightened that she closed her eyes again.
"It's fine." With that, Boutis gently shook the bell again, calming Hesia's mood.
"The main product of this piece of my business is these cute little guys." Butiss first introduced Heshia to the types of poisons.
Most of them are creatures with extraordinary powers, ranging from sequences 1-3, and a few are still sequences 4, which is surprising.
"Although I only have the original sequence 3, they are very obedient and will not mess around, as for how I tamed it, this will have to be talked about for a long time, if 'Daintellen' is interested, I can tell you later, but today, let's get used to the content of the work first."
"Unlike the toxins of ordinary organisms, the toxins of transcendent organisms carry a touch of transcendent concepts and do not rely entirely on the effects of chemicals or neurotransmitters, which means that they cannot be treated with neutralizers or serums."
It's even more frightening, the girl thought silently in her heart.
"However, if you analyze the characteristics and make antidotes in a targeted manner, you can also keep you fine, which is generally related to alchemy and pharmaceutical."
"These little guys in my flower room, although they look very scary, the toxins they secrete have many uses, some can be used for alchemy medicine, and some are the materials of some kind of high-end perfume, so their venom should be collected regularly."
"I'm sometimes too busy to be alone, so I'm looking for your help today."
Under Boutis's explanation and explanation, Heshea finally nodded, step by step, tiptoeing carefully to contact these little guys, but the process is ......
"Woo......"
A small verdant snake wrapped around Heshia's calf, and then a large fluffy spider landed on Heshia's head, and then Heshia sat a bright red poison dart frog in her hand.
"Ahaha, everybody likes you a lot." Bhatis laughed as she helped Heshia remove the spider from her head.
"This one is for you, you shake it lightly twice, and they will be obedient." She continued to explain the main points, and then handed the bell in her hand.
Hesia did so carefully, took the bell with her hand, shook it slightly, and then a pleasant sound of the bell dispersed, like the cold sound of the bell on a winter night, which made people dissipate impetuousness.
Upon hearing the bell, Bhatis smiled and nodded, but soon a look of surprise appeared in her eyes, staring at the bell in Hesia's hand and her serious and lovely appearance.
It didn't take long for the little snake to calm down and no longer swim, which made Heshia resist her fear, slowly untied the little snake from her legs, and then put it aside.
"Don't let it go, grab its head, and spit out venom." Boutise was on the sidelines to direct and demonstrate.
"Wow, okay." The girl carefully pinched the snake's head, let it close to the glassware, and then pressed lightly on it, and the little snake also opened its fangs in cooperation, slowly flowing out colorless venom.
"Very well, 'Daindian' is a quick learner." Boutise gave a thumbs up and clapped her hands.
"Go on, next one is this blue-bottomed tarantula."
A tarantula larger than Heshia's hand was placed in front of him, this tarantula was a natural sequence 3 tree-dwelling tarantula, with bright blue fur on the limbs and a black torso in the middle.
When the tarantula climbed into Hesia's hand, she was too frightened to move, and her back was sweating.
"Don't panic, take your time, gently touch its forelimbs with your fingers, and rest assured that I'm here."
After a while, Heshia dared to do so, and then the tarantula moved, but the image teleported like a dropped frame, with no middle.
"Look at those big black jewel-like eyes, they're cute, aren't they?"
No, it's not cute at all, Heshia complained in her heart.
Fortunately, she finally got used to it, and she began to carefully repeat the previous process to remove the venom.
In this way, under the coaxing and deception of Butesse, Hehia finally got used to it, and the speed was much faster.
Towards dusk, when the venom of the last little guy by the pool had been disposed of, Butise washed her hands and went to Heshea's side to help the girl who could not stand up because of her sore legs.
"Good work." She patted Hesia's garment, then hugged her gently.
"Let's go get some food, I'll have a treat today, and I'll tell you how I tame these guys."
Again, as yesterday, the two of them sat at the bar of 'Florus', but today it was Butis's treat.
"'Daintellen' is here again." Florus looked at the two of them with a smile and began to prepare dinner.
"Isn't it a little curious that even wild transcendent animals can be tamed and obedient?" Bhatis drank the drink that had just been mixed by 'Frauus' and explained it to the girl.
"Actually, it's a branch of some kind of singer's ability, or one of its uses."
"Singer?" A question mark appeared on the girl's head, she naturally knew the meaning of the singer, but she hadn't thought about it.
Singers are not just singers, it is more appropriate to say that they are transcendents with the talent of soul harmony, and singing or music is just a means to spread this talent, and the huge country of the Rose Federation was facilitated by a color-level singer hundreds of years ago.
After nearly 20 years of mediation and campaigning by this legendary singer, 186 mega-corporations and 37 interstellar organizations finally came together to set up a new Twelve Charters and form this country, which is the origin of the original 31 star fields of the Federation.
Today, there are 239 star fields in the Rose Federation, but the birthday of the singer with the title of 'Golden Flame Rose' is still a national celebration for the entire Federation, and her huge bust has always stood on the wall of the Parliament Chamber, holding a bouquet of flowers, sitting in front of a gorgeous red chair, surrounded by green leaves and blooming roses, among which there are fairy flying.
This half-breed girl of elf and human has performed miracles and established the first powerful nation in human civilization at the beginning of the sixth season in ruins.
