Chapter 474: Ruins 21

It takes at least two hours for the storm to pass, and during those two hours they can only stay underground, waiting for the storm to end, waiting for the attack that could happen at any time. From time to time, there was a loud tremor on the ground, and if you didn't look at it, you could imagine the collapse of the houses above, and the superstorm was gradually turning the ruins of the city into huge piles of rubble.

After dealing with the most difficult teleporter, it seemed that the entire sandbox system had become more cautious, and Du Zhengyi lowered his defense. Xiang Qian didn't care much all the time, and after waiting for a few minutes, he lit a cigarette and smoked it. She really didn't care, it wasn't particularly dangerous for her here, because she wasn't as bogey as Du Zhengyi.

She handed Du Zhengyi a cigarette, but Du Zhengyi didn't answer. She shook the cigarette and insisted on giving it to Du Zhengyi, "You don't need to be so tight, relaxation is the way to survive." In our line of work, boredom is more deadly than that of a high anti-mage. Believe me, the next NN hit won't come so quickly, it's a strategy test room, and it's very time-consuming to adjust your attack patterns. ”

"Have you ever wondered why adjustments are so slow here? It feels like a chess game, and sometimes it takes a day to make a move. Du Zheng asked as soon as he turned out to smoke.

"Didn't think about it. It's an inherited magic sandbox, and who knows what the Primordial Ancestors thought, maybe they just liked it. Xiang Qian exhaled a puff of cigarette, the corners of her eyes were full of wrinkles, but her eyes were bright.

"Roach is a very curious person." Du Zhengyi slowly took a cigarette, frowned and slowly exhaled the smoke, "He kept chasing me and asking something, some things I can say, some I can't say, and some I don't even know." He looked at the wizarding world in the same way that humans experimented, logically deduced, and wanted an explanation for everything. ”

The bored old mage said perfunctorily, "That's pretty rare. ”

"So, I'm worried that once he can cope with it and realizes that he can't die for a while, he'll start to be curious about the sandbox magic system. He might start exploring, starting to look for the magic core. Du Zheng took a cigarette in his hand and gradually became thoughtful.

"It's kind of dangerous, it's a little boring."

"He's an imbecile mage who can't sit back and enjoy it, even if his behavior and characteristics are more human-like. There is another annoyance. Du Zhengyi said suddenly, "Liu Ziyu is a technical mage who explores everywhere, as long as Luo Qi proposes, she will not object." If the two of them hadn't gotten together, the communication magic wouldn't have failed by now. ”

"Speaking of which." Xiang Qian glanced at the "Luo Qi" who was quietly staying on the side, "When we came, was it doing something under the stone tablet?" I remember that there was no mystery under that stele. ”

"I remember that the surface of the stele was shoveled." Du Zhengyi said.

"When I was young, the stele was already polished." Xiang Qian said nonchalantly, "Maybe someone has carved a visit here before, and Qionglin doesn't think it's very elegant." ”

"Since there is a stone monument, it must be for the purpose of recording history. Roach knew human habits very well, and he must have wanted to see what was on the stele. He may not be looking for the principles of magic here, but probably the history of this human city. Du Zhengyi said, the cigarette in his hand had been completely put down.

"It was already like this when I was younger." Xiang Qian emphasized.

"Don't you think it's strange?" Du Zhengyi asked softly. "You've lived at least a hundred and fifty years, haven't you? The first time you came here, it was around the year 1900, but it was about 190 years ago, and you can see it from the car. ”

"Why should I be weird?" Xiang Qian said with a kind of cunning and toughness unique to an old man, "Don't see what you shouldn't see, that's the principle of the magic world. Kid, do you have any comments on this? ”

Du Zhengyi did not answer.

Xiang Qian continued to smoke a cigarette and continued, "Maybe the Ancestor Mage has predicted the future a long time ago, and even the arithmetic masters can calculate the future through the calculation array, who knows what the Ancestor Mage is capable of?" ”

"Maybe." Du Zhengyi said.

"Roach is a weird kid, he's been n't a human. No elite mage will be like him, all elite mages will be discovered when they are young, the most amazing mages will be sent to Qionglin in childhood, and the next one will also attract the attention of the school and will be accepted into the mainstream society very early. Xiang Qian said, her words were full of attack, but her tone was full of indifference, she slowly spit out smoke rings, and even Du Zhengyi could hear a trace of mockery in her voice. Did you know that Mind Mages and Battle Mages are a special race of mages, which is interesting? The Mind Mage is a spear, though fragile, and the Battle Mage is the shield. While sometimes battlemages are also the nemesis of mind mages, only we have the power to shut ourselves down and stop the telepathic from infiltrating. ”

"Is it because they don't trust Roach?" Du Zhengyi asked.

But she smiled, "There are a number of reasons for this. Thankfully, you're dying, and you're the Lone Mountain Guard, and you're in front of the contract, otherwise they'd have distrusted Roach even more. In order to be accepted by the wizarding world, one must first prove that he is worthy, and Roach is proving that he has the right to live. So, what exactly are you anxious about? ”

"If Roach hears you say that, he will say that this is some kind of social humanism." Du Zhengyi said gently, as if he didn't mind her outspokenness.

"Even if you say it all, I won't understand." Xiang Qian said, "When I am old, I am about to retire and die. ”

"How many mages still hide their identification and knowledge of humans?"

"Maybe it's some worthless mages and some mages who can hide their hearts." Xiang Qian said, she knocked on her temple, "You'd better persuade your little friend to behave normally and be willing to contribute to Qionglin." ”

"Did they send you to tell me this?"

"It's only Liu Li."

They were silent for a while, and Du Zhengyi suddenly said, "I'm dying, even if I live with personality, it doesn't matter at all." Roach was a smart man, and he would soon understand what Jonlin meant. ”

Xiang Qian smiled dryly.

"When you were younger, was this the place to test the strategy of battle mages?" Du Zhengyi suddenly asked again.

"Of course."

"But this was supposed to be a test for the Mind Mage." Du Zhengyi said, "Is it possible that once it recognizes the existence of telepathic magic, it will immediately lock on to the main target?" ”

"But it's still like a strategy test room."

"What if the so-called strategy is playing against a consciousness? Could that consciousness be a soul left in a sandbox? Du Zhengyi asked.

"That's a consciousness that's been around since time immemorial." Xiang Qian said uncertainly, "Have you ever seen such an old soul?" ”

"Of course I haven't." Du Zheng said expressionlessly, "But since there is this possibility, it will always exist, won't it?" ”
