Chapter 289 The bright blue coastline that divides the world
"What are you learning, combat skills?" Lorraine Hill was almost finished eating at this time, and asked slightly curiously.
"I'll study a little, but it's more about exercising and getting some experience," the sister recalled.
"It's for hunting monsters. It's a very powerful skill." The younger brother on the side couldn't help but say.
"Mr. Bruce is a powerful hunter in the town. He knows the habits of many monsters. As long as he is prepared, has good traps, and finds the right opportunity, he can catch powerful monsters. It's amazing." He said with eyes filled with joy.
worship.
"If there are any difficult monsters in nearby villages, people will come to him. By the way, Uncle Bruce is also very good with a knife. Once I saw him tearing apart a wild wolf easily. Yes, he took advantage of the wolf to pounce on him.
At that time, he would be disemboweled with one knife, so strong."
It was obvious that this young man admired Uncle Bruce very much and told many stories about his deeds.
"Mr. Bruce is a powerful hunter. Now he is also the patrol captain of the town. He deals with some monsters that attack people and arrests some thieves." The elder sister introduced again, slightly stopping the younger brother's ramblings.
"I see, then Mr. Bruce is also an extraordinary person."
"Well, Bruce has been a master of Sequence 3 for a long time. I heard from people in the town that he once defeated a long-tusked sea lion that was about to be promoted to Sequence 4. It was very powerful."
"It's very impressive." Lorraine Hill nodded thoughtfully.
Although many first-year students in Emenas have Sequence 4, it does not mean that it is very common. For ordinary small towns, Sequence 3 is actually a rare expert, and they are probably respected local people and ordinary people.
A powerful and extraordinary person who can be contacted.
Even the Heron witch she saw yesterday was only Sequence 4, and was already rated as very talented by her elders.
Even in Emenas, where geniuses gather together, it is difficult for most students to graduate. Many people stay at Sequence 5 and have no choice but to leave after five years, such as Lily.
Only a small number of geniuses, the geniuses among geniuses, can be promoted to Sequence 6 or above within five years and then graduate. This was the case for Letis and Alena at that time.
As for those who graduated with Sequence 7 strength, I'm afraid there were only a few in each class. The only ones she knew well were Bu Mansha, Xing Liu, and by the way, Luna beside her.
Or maybe because she has witnessed the terror of many witches, her concept of strength has become very indifferent, and she has even forgotten that the junior next to her is also an extremely outstanding and rare genius.
Ranked third at the Winter Festival Gala, behind the first-placed Ojone and another orc student.
After dinner, Lorraine Hill and Luna stood up.
"How much is it?" the girl asked.
"Because it uses meat, it's a little more expensive, a total of 12 copper coins." When talking about the price, the sister was a little cautious, fearing that the two of them would be dissatisfied.
But the two of them didn't seem to care at all. Luna took out a silver coin and put it on the table.
"Ah, let me see if I have enough change." It usually takes several days for them to earn a silver coin, which is not a small amount.
As she said that, her sister opened the locked drawer and rummaged around hurriedly, while her brother on the side looked at the smooth and reflective silver coin with joy and couldn't take his eyes away.
In response, Lorraine Hill shook his head slightly, took Luna's hand and prepared to leave.
"No need to look for it, just think of the rest as sponsorship. You have done it with great care. I hope you can eat warm and delicious food next time you come."
"This way..." The younger brother was suddenly pleasantly surprised.
But the sister still took the silver coin and ran out in small steps.
"Sorry, I couldn't find enough change at the moment. If you two are still there next time, we will definitely give it to you for free."
At this, Lorraine Hill nodded slightly, and then left, while Luna walked behind and made a cheering gesture to the two of them, and then followed the girl in front in small steps.
After dinner, after listening to the story about the siblings, it was already a little late. There was light snow in the sky, and the street was much quieter. Only occasionally one or two dim lights shone from the windows on the street.
"Why didn't you give them gold coins then, Sister Lorraine?" Luna walked behind Lorraine Hill and asked slightly curiously. In fact, she was going to take out a gold coin at that time.
"This is not good." The girl shook her head and looked into the distant night.
"Ordinary people can't withstand such great excitement in their lives. Suddenly having a gold coin can easily lead to bad things." If you want to spend the gold coin, you probably need to exchange it, but how to explain its origin? I wonder if someone can do it.
One would think that the siblings had a lot of gold coins hidden away and had evil intentions.
This is not the information age with excellent security. The death of a few ordinary civilians will not attract much attention, and it can also be explained by various reasons, such as monster attacks, ocean tides, shipwrecks, and mountain disasters.
Poverty is a limitation, but it is also a protective color that allows them to live peacefully in this era.
After listening to Lorraine Hill's explanation, Luna nodded in understanding.
"I was negligent."
Although she experienced a difficult time as a child, her background and talent soon got rid of that environment when she grew up, and now she has gradually forgotten it. Fortunately, Lorraine Hill's reminder also made her recall and react quickly.
come over.
Although Luna may be a little more mature in appearance between the two of them now, in her heart, the girl in front of her is her elder and a being worthy of respect.
The fact that he was able to get rid of his past life and later study at Emenas was actually the result of being cared for by Lorraine Hill.
However, I always feel that Sister Lorraine doesn't look that big, and it's hard to treat her like Grandpa Seres and Uncle Triton.
Luna looked at Lorraine Hill walking in front of her and thought to herself.
When the two returned to the hotel where they lived, they found that tonight was very unusual.
All the lights in the hall seemed to be extinguished, and a small stage was set up in the originally empty corner. The only light shone slantly on the stage, and a beautiful woman wearing a black gauze skirt was singing softly on the stage.
The singing voice was very shallow. She held the metal magic sound tube, her head tilted slightly, her eyes were slightly half-closed, looking at the audience below, one hand was slightly raised, and the finger cots covered with lace gauze gently brushed the air, letting the
People are sunk and confused by it.
Although she looks only 18-19 years old, this woman in a black dress has a lazy and sweet voice, like a touching beauty, touching people's heartstrings and intoxicating the audience below.
Although Lorraine Hill has heard many powerful singers sing, from past and present lives, and even Wei Miya's moving voice, even so, she has to admit that this singer's voice has a special charm.
It captivates people's hearts, leads them into dreams, and makes them fall into confusion.
More than thirty people in the hall, whether elves or humans, were standing quietly under the stage at this moment, as if they had lost the ability to think. Their eyes were obsessed with looking at the figure on the stage, turning as it moved, no longer visible.
He thought, he just hoped that the singing could last forever.
Closing his eyes slightly, not looking at the alluring figure, Lorraine Hill quietly listened to the lazy and sweet singing, and then opened his eyes again after a long time.
At this time, she discovered that Luna beside her was in the same state as the other spectators, motionless, as if her whole body and mind were attracted by the figure and the singing.
The entire hall is like a hazy and confusing dream, so intoxicating and beautiful that people are willing to be intoxicated by it.
When the last song finally ended, an hour had passed. The candlelight in the hall turned on again at some point, and the audience seemed to gradually wake up from their drunkenness, sit back in their seats, and then resume the noise and excitement again.
Voice.
The girl in black dress who sang before disappeared on the small stage like a dream, and everyone never seemed to realize that anything was wrong. They continued to talk and talk about other things, but occasionally felt that the night passed so quickly.
"Sister Lorraine, shall we go back to the room to rest first?" Luna asked looking at Lorraine Hill who was leaning slightly on the back of the chair.
"Did Luna feel sleepy so soon? Did we just go back to the hotel?" Lorraine Hill looked at Luna who was leaning over in front of her. Her golden hair surrounded her face and fell down on her pale purple and light white collar.
superior.
"Well, I just returned to the hotel. I must have been shopping for too long at night." After speaking, Luna also looked at the simple wall clock on the wall of the hall with a little confusion to make sure that her memory was correct.
"Well, then Luna, let's go back to sleep first."
"See you tomorrow then, Sister Luolan." After saying that, Luna walked away in a small step and went to rest first.
Lorraine Hill remained in the hall until the people there went back to rest one after another, and then returned to where the small stage was before going overseas.
She slowly squatted down and looked at the thin and sparse dust on it, which had no trace of being pressed. After thinking quietly for a while, she waved gently, and a breeze blew through her sleeves, sweeping away the remaining dust.
"What's the matter, this customer?" The clerk who was packing up things and extinguishing the lights came over and looked at the gentle girl.
"No." The girl shook her head, but continued to ask.
"Do you occasionally invite singers to sing here?"
"I've never had this happen before. It's just that sometimes bards come over to play simple tunes and tell some legends and stories. Only hotels in big cities can afford singers or divas to stay. We have the ones here.
I’m not considered rich and can’t afford that kind of person.”
"Haven't you ever?"
"I think so, at least I haven't seen or heard of it when I was at work." The clerk asked him when he saw the beautiful girl. He thought about it seriously for a while, and finally shook his head.
"Okay, I understand." After saying that, Lorraine Hill prepared to go back to the room upstairs.
"Guest, lady, if you want to listen to music, there is a small theater in the town, but it only has performances every Saturday night. Although it is simple, it can also pass the time a little bit."
It's Saturday. Lorraine Hill secretly calculates the time to leave. He can't wait until that day.
"I understand, thank you."
Back in the room, Lorraine Hill quickly walked to the bedside, and then picked up the sleeping doll.
"Yin Xue, wake up."
"What's wrong, Lorraine?" The ghost doll opened its eyes.
"Have you been in the room since Luna and I went out?"
"Yes, what's wrong."
"Has anyone special come to the hotel?" Yin Xue is Sequence 8. If someone special comes, she should be able to sense it.
"It seems that no one has entered this room."
"Is that so..." Lorraine Hill said slightly disappointed, then shook his head.
It seems that there are no clues this time.
Who is the girl singing in the hall? Could she be a witch? However, she did not perceive the fluctuation of power. If it was a spell, there were no changes in mana and magic power in the atmosphere and space.
This is not something that can be easily concealed. Now she is a witch wearing a crown. Even if she cannot activate the crown, she is not an existence that can be easily deceived. Even if the secret witch Agatha comes to life, it will be difficult to deceive her perception.
What I saw and heard about the girl in the black skirt should be some kind of reality, and time has indeed passed, and this cannot be faked.
However, except for her, no one remembers the girl who just sang in the hall, which is very strange, and there is no trace left on the ground, just like a phantom or illusion.
It would have been nice if she had directly interrupted the girl's singing, so that she should have noticed some differences. Unfortunately, out of politeness and curiosity, she did not take action at that time. Who would have thought that after singing, people and the stage
It just disappeared.
For a moment, he couldn't think of any clues, and Lorraine Hill ignored it. This was an extraordinary world with all kinds of strange things, which were not unacceptable.
Just like she still doesn't know why she woke up in the forest that day, and who put her on the earth more than 30,000 years later, just for the continuation of the future.
In the next three days, Lorraine Hill chatted a lot with Miss Heron about the past of the Witch of the North before sending her away from this town.
"If Miss Heron feels that it is difficult to live in the north, why not go to the south of the empire? Although it is not suitable for the inheritance of witches, it will be a very stable and peaceful place." Lorraine Hill suggested before leaving.
"Thank you for your proposal, sir. I will seriously consider it." Miss Heron stood on the dock and said goodbye to Lorraine Hill before boarding the ship that was about to set sail.
I don’t know if she listened, but I can’t force this kind of thing.
The girl watched Heron leave, and then returned to her residence with Yin Xue in her arms.
Soon, they will set off, and this time they will arrive directly at the northern continent to visit the ice elves whom the forest elves have not heard from for many years.
Fortunately, they are not completely clueless this time. At least there is a past ice elf princess in their team, as well as an ice elf eldest lady who escaped from home.
The white airship slowly rose from the coast, its snow-white sails flapped in the air, and then slowly moved toward the clouds in the sky.
"Have you finally set off?"
Standing on the high-altitude deck, the doll in Lorraine Hill's arms moved. She floated slightly, then sat on the girl's shoulders, looking at the magnificent and vast world below.
The snow-white earth and ocean are clearly divided into two halves, extending towards the infinite distance, pure white and bright blue, silence and waves, the world becomes extremely distant and cold.
"Six-petal snowflakes, poems and songs, flawless elves born with loneliness and sensitivity..." Yin Xue whispered the ancient poem, seeming to think of many past events.
"I don't know what they think of me in the end, the proud and stupid princess, or the weak and sad last princess."
"Perhaps if I had been a little stronger and less impulsive then, the bloodline of the royal family would not have been cut off."
