"Brother, did you say that on purpose?"
In the streets that were still full of busy players and civilians, Qian Zhihe, who had his hands behind his back, asked with a smile: "That old man is obviously too old to walk, yet you still bully others like that?"
"Don't call people "old man" casually.
Looking helplessly at the red-haired girl who was surrounding him like an elf, Duan Qing finally shook his head: "It can be seen that Fordson is still very interested in the so-called other mysterious continent.
Yes, it’s just that because of his age and status, he has no way to explore it anymore.”
"You mean, he was an explorer when he was young?" Qianzhihe's eyes lit up slightly: "How is this possible? It doesn't look like him at all."
"Young adventure is everyone's patent. That kind of thing is often called youth." Duan Qing replied with a smile: "We may need to search for specific information and details, but Fordson may have been an explorer when he was young.
Maybe, just like when I was young... eh."
"Let's stop this topic here." He seemed to think of something unexplainable. He touched his nose and then shook his head and sighed: "Aren't we here yet?"
"Ah, it's here, it's here."
After making an OK gesture towards Duan Qing, the red-haired girl's face became excited again. She gestured towards the front of the street where the two people were walking, and at the same time looked towards what was busy in the sky there.
At that time, the magicians who had already noticed the arrival of the two people waved their hands: "It should be here, I seem a little unsure..."
"Uncle North! Uncle North!" She shouted towards the uncle-looking magician who had just withdrawn his spell-casting action, and stopped him as he was about to leave: "Is the teleportation array located here?
"
"It's Xiao Qian." The original serious face gradually turned into a smile. The magician known as Uncle North then pointed in front of the two people: "Yes, the magic circle has been set up.
Although it has not been approved by the principality, they should not mind this kind of thing."
"Being able to set up a teleportation array under such conditions is inherently a difficult project."
The person who answered this sentence was another young magician who flew past Uncle North. The face he gestured towards Qian Zhihe was also full of handsomeness, and the red-haired man also put on a smile.
The girl then waved to the colleague who interrupted, and then took the lead and pulled Duan Qing towards the front: "Let's go, brother."
"You haven't been back there since that incident, have you?"
She pointed at the magical brilliance that was erected in the damaged house, and held Duan Qing's hand a little harder. Duan Qing, who vaguely understood the other party's mood, then let it go.
The girl maneuvered her body into the complicated striped magic circle, and then disappeared in a flash of light. The fresh air and cold temperature then hit her face, making her eyes open.
The gray-robed magician who opened his eyes shuddered involuntarily. He looked at the azure sky in front of him and the giant magic circle vaguely surrounding it with an indescribable feeling: "City in the Sky"
ah."
"Have the defense facilities here been repaired?"
His eyes returned from the distant sky, and then fell on the ancient walls behind countless magicians who were hurriedly passing by this area: "It feels like there is not so much wind coming in."
"Of course, the magic skills of the Council of Mages are not limited." Wiping his nose, Qian Zhihe jumped out of the magic circle with a proud smile on his face: "I have some credit for this! Where is it?
, there, and there... I am responsible for repairing those places!"
"Okay, okay, I know how good you are." So Duan Qing could only respond with a wry smile: "If I have time, I will visit this city."
"Tell me where to go."
His smile slowly faded, and his voice became deeper as he lowered his head: "You can't let me follow my previous memories to find it, right? I'm afraid I will end up in some places that are not suitable for me to go.
"
"This is already the central hub area." He retracted his excited expression somewhat unhappily. Qianzhihe then opened the map and introduced: "There are several teleportation areas in the Sky City. The one closest to the headquarters of the Master Council is this area, and
"The Hall of the Seven"
"No."
A calm voice then appeared next to the two people, attracting the attention of the magicians passing by and the two people. An old man wearing a black magic robe, with his hair and beard particularly gray in contrast, followed.
He also walked out of the passage next to the teleportation hall and walked slowly to Duan Qing: "When you ask about my location again, the orchid flowers may have withered."
"grown ups."
In the scene of respectful salutes all around, both the magicians stationed around the teleportation array and the magicians passing by in a hurry all bowed their heads to the old man, while Qian Zhihe, who also lowered his head, had a
Duan Qing's polite but awkward smile came out, accompanied by a slight sound when he scratched his scalp: "Isn't this the balance I still owe you? Anyone who sees the creditor will feel this in his heart
I’ve been scared for a while.”
"……snort."
In the eyes of a large number of magicians who couldn't help but show surprise, the old man with his hands clasped in his hands sneered unconsciously. He used a slight wave of his hands to change the surrounding space that seemed to have solidified into a normal atmosphere, and then turned around.
He walked back in the direction he came from: "You actually remember the debt you owe me."
"I mentioned this matter when I met you last time, but there were a lot of people present at that time." Somewhat unnaturally, he put aside the gazes on himself and followed Duan Qing who came forward.
He replied helplessly: "Of course, judging from the current situation, this matter is not something that should be brought to the table at this time."
"You have to believe in the abilities of these little guys." Still walking forward slowly, Wiggins, who was walking in front, seemed to answer in a less energetic voice: "Although they don't have anything that can touch 'reason'
Hope, but I have been immersed in the magic field for so long."
"There are not many problems in dealing with this small scene."
Invisible energy seemed to slowly pass through the surface of the skin, causing Duan Qing and Qian Zhihe who were following the black-robed old man to shiver involuntarily. The interior of the passage composed of countless dark yellow pipes and magic lights also
This strange feeling suddenly changed and transformed into a small workshop that looked extremely old, filled with magic books and magic potions: "This, this is?"
“Private room.”
The footsteps did not stop because of the pause of the two players. Wiggins, who was walking in front, slowly took off the black hood on his head. He waved and sent two chairs that were originally located in the corner of the room into the air.
When they arrived in front of Duan Qing and Qian Zhihe, they walked to one of the dilapidated square tables filled with colorful bottles and jars: "I just borrowed a corner of the Void Library at will and sold it to Shanai."
There are so many potion recipes...heh."
"Let's not talk about this matter for now." As if he wanted to put some of the scenes he had just recalled out of his mind, the old man who turned around and sat down knocked his forehead hard: "Where is your robe?"
"Uh, that...this..." The surprised expression quickly turned into a dry laugh. Duan Qing looked around and tried to say: "Isn't this? Isn't this still wearing it on my body?"
"I didn't sell the universal robe to you. After all, you can't afford the price." Ignoring Duan Qing's attitude of trying to brush off the matter, Wiggins' calm eyes slowly curled up to his lowered eyes.
Under the eyes: "The gray robe you are wearing now has no magic fluctuations at all, let alone the breath of space."
"Lost? Or damaged?" His eyelids raised slightly: "Are you ready to sell the rest of your life to me?"
"It's true that the robe is gone, but it doesn't completely disappear!"
Amid the incomprehensible expression of Qianzhihe on the side, Duan Qing hurriedly waved his hands with a cold sweat on his face: "I still inherit the ability of the omnipotent robe! Its mantle is still with me!"
"Look." He looked at each other for a while with the old man who was still looking at him, and then he took out a bottle of red energy potion out of thin air as if he couldn't withstand the pressure: "At least the space package is still there.
It works."
"……oh?"
There was finally a hint of interest in his eyes, and Wiggins's unkind and questioning tone finally changed a little: "There is indeed space fluctuation...how did you do it?"
"The furnace, the furnace." Duan Qing pointed to his feet hurriedly: "You should know the purpose of that furnace, right? The robe fell into the furnace with me, and then, it merged together like this.
.”
He pinched the magic potion in his hand, and at the same time looked at the old man's face with innocent eyes. Wiggins, who seemed to be curled up in his seat, kept his posture for a long time without moving, and his eyes resurfaced after a long time.
But it is filled with a completely different sheer light than before: "you"
"It's just nonsense!"
"Why did you provoke those guys? Why did you throw yourself into that danger? Falling into the furnace? That's a place where living things can survive? It doesn't matter if you don't know how much you weigh. Such a big thing happened.
Don’t you know how to take things back first and have a good discussion before continuing?”
"Why don't you explain it to us in advance and ask for our help?"
The piercing roar was followed by a low and serious warning, accompanied by the terrifying magical aura emanating from the old man's white beard and hair that instantly spread out and slowly fell back to his temples, and books and books floating around him.
The magic bottles and jars also fell back to their original positions in an orderly manner as the breath was withdrawn. At the same time, Duan Qing, who had been yelled into silence, had the opportunity to speak out again: "How could the situation at that time be tolerated?
Let’s run back and report, and isn’t there a Thousand-Zhizhe here? Didn’t she bring you here too?”
"Thankfully we arrived in time, otherwise you wouldn't have known how much trouble we would have caused!"
He let out a heavy cold snort again, and the old man's sharp and pointed gaze lowered: "And you are just lucky, abandoned by fate and thrown back into this world, otherwise...
Even I can't save you!"
"It's okay, it's okay, haha, haha." Recalling all the signs that happened in the white world in his mind, Duan Qing's dry laughter became much more unnatural: "Anyway, as long as nothing happens, then
I will also find a way to compensate you for the robe in the future."
"When I lent it to you, I never thought that you would be able to return it properly." There was a look of anticipation in his eyes, and the old man who crossed his hands continued angrily: "Where is Yuanpan? Yuanpan has also been stolen.
Have you eaten?"
"The disk must have been lost." Then Duan Qing rubbed his nose and became more and more embarrassed: "I planned to go back to look for it before, but Rex and the others caught it again."
"Forget it, no one can use that thing except you anyway." Wiggins glared at the other party again, and took a few hard breaths: "Let's talk about the target. It's for you to vent the energy you control.
of?"
"Yes." Finally the subject of this meeting was mentioned, and Duan Qing's voice regained a sense of seriousness: "I had a glimpse of Menmorluo's memory, and then I tried to control it, and it succeeded.
.”
"What about the others?" Wiggins squinted at Duan Qing's face: "What else did you see?"
"I also saw...a lot." Duan Qing replied calmly: "Including his experiences when he was young, the fate he encountered in front of a certain village, his beliefs, and what he did secretly in Tania later.
Various actions taken”
"I'm not interested in Tania's future."
Wiggins waved his hand and showed a bored look, and whispered in an impatient tone: "It's their business how they want to toss, even if they are destroyed, so what? What if this group of people who don't know the heights of heaven and earth are really unlucky?
'If he died in the hands of that Menmorro, we might be a little less hindered when we finally take action."
"But after all, this is the place where the prophecy originated." Duan Qing raised his head and replied: "The fact that this is the old site of the empire, and the interpretation of the prophecy, are inseparable from this city."
"So? What does the future of the Free Continent have to do with them?" Glancing coldly in the direction of Duan Qing, Wiggins waved his hand emotionlessly: "They made a mistake themselves.
The knowledge passed down by our ancestors allowed all the prophecies to become reality, and a group of people had neither the power nor the hope to control their own destiny."
"Why do we need to care about their lives?"
