Just as Yingying and No. 3 were looking at each other in the air, Joshua began to observe with interest the mysterious girl who seemed to have completed the advancement.
If we just talk about appearance, there is naturally no change. Whether it is height or body, Firefly is exactly the same as before. The changes caused by the advancement should be all in the body.
Joshua can directly see the flow of energy with his eyes, and Yingying, who has a contract with him, has an almost undefended energy flow route in his body, and he can easily see through it at a glance.
"It seems that the core output power has indeed become higher, and the energy route also has a supercharged magic structure, which can briefly burst out with greater power..."
Analyzing the general path of magic energy in Yingying's body, Joshua couldn't help but applaud the alchemists who designed the divine machine four hundred years ago. Although he couldn't understand the deeper structural path at all, it didn't stop him from being able to see it. , Just talking about it now, Hotaru's human form has reached the peak of Silver level, and will even break through the gold level limit soon.
The psychic body does not require food, absorbs free energy, heals itself quickly, and regenerates limbs... All kinds of special abilities are blessed in this small body, and it can even allow her to grow continuously through fighting and killing. This can be called The highest masterpiece of alchemy.
However, the body of Shenji is still a weapon after all, and the human form is just designed for portability and communication. Her strength is not actually important. If you want to really know what new abilities Yingying has gained after advancing, she is still We need to find a chance to have a magical fight.
"Firefly, how do you feel after you advanced?"
Raising his head and looking directly into the eyes of his weapon, Joshua looked forward to asking Yingying for his opinion. He was not very proficient in alchemy. Sometimes it was better to ask Shenji for his own opinion.
But the silver-haired girl was obviously distracted. She kept staring at the purple-blue rune core in Rin's hand, and then blinked before reacting:
"This, it feels pretty good... Master, who is this?"
What does it feel like to feel good... Joshua frowned, but after thinking about it carefully, he suddenly realized that asking Yingying was really useless. She didn't understand alchemy, so how could she tell her various changes in detail.
Looking sideways at Projection No. 3, which was floating in front of the bed like a ghost, Joshua thought for a moment, and then said slowly: "This... the new decoration you brought home?"
Firefly, No. 3: "?"
While Joshua was still dealing with his own affairs in the territory, the Imperial Capital, the Three Mountains Holy City, was in the Morlai Palace.
The weather in the center of the empire was already very warm. Most of the pedestrians on the road had taken off their leather jackets and put on long-sleeved singles. After sending the students back to the Royal Academy, Nostradamus did not stop and walked directly into the palace. , once again found His Majesty the Emperor who was handling official business.
Due to the old mage's status and relationship with the emperor, he no longer needed to notify him in advance when entering or leaving the palace, and the guards on the road would not stop him. Not long after, he saw the man who held the highest power in the empire in the study.
Opening the study door, Nostradamus saw a man with dark golden shawl long hair sitting on an armchair in the study. He was reading an ancient book with a bright silver cover, and on his lap sat There is a little boy with dark blond hair and sky blue eyes.
"The Seventh Prince is here today."
The old mage raised his eyebrows, touched his white beard, and said with some surprise: "This is really rare."
"This little guy said today that he wants to see me handle official business..." In front of his children, the emperor of the empire did not show much of the majesty of a legendary warrior. He put down the ancient book in his hand, turned to look at the old mage and said, "Teacher, When I come here this time, I should have finished dealing with matters in the Northland."
"That's right. All three of them have returned from another world. They seem to be looking for the space-time gate themselves. After I opened the space-time gate, they quickly returned on their own."
He waved his hand and summoned a chair out of thin air. The old mage sat on an armchair with top-grade lambskin cushions. He thought for a while and then said: "Israel, there is something very worthy of attention and worth talking about. .”
Even the emperor of the empire couldn't ignore the fact that his teacher, the supreme mage, was so cautious. Israel asked curiously: "What's the matter?"
Nostradamus roughly told Joshua and others about their experiences in the other world.
There was silence in the study room.
"The God of Ultimate Intent... Even with the help of others, it is not easy to kill it... It seems that Mr. Radcliffe has indeed understood the ultimate intention, and the turbulence of time and space in the North has disappeared, so leading to the stars The defense line falling from the Inland Sea to the Mangming Sea will be more stable."
Israel mused that the alien world on the other side of the time and space channel has lost its threat, which has also brought a huge change to the strategic deployment of the entire empire. He was still stroking his child's hair. The seventh prince, who seemed young, seemed to want to He tried to move the hand on his head away, but struggled for a long time to no avail. After a while, the emperor said: "It seems that the evil god who invaded the other world has left that world. Based on the distance between Mycroft and that world, the chaos forces that appear in the far south are likely to be related to the Chaos Evil God. Mr. Chaos is also investigating related matters."
After finishing speaking, he paused, then shook his head with a smile and said: "And I didn't expect that someone could advance faster than me. Times are indeed progressing."
"It's just good luck."
Unable to move away from his father's big hand, the seventh prince gave up on the matter. However, after listening to his father's words, he said unhappily: "Whether it is Brandon or that Radcliffe, they are just I just inherited the inheritance of the sages. With the inheritance of the sages, anyone can do these things, but you, father, are different..."
It seems that although the seventh prince looks young, he actually knows a lot of things. He speaks very logically and does not look like an ordinary child.
But Israel shook his head. He continued to touch his child's head and said slowly: "Alva, it is not because of the inheritance of saints that we can do these things, but because we can do these things, we can awaken the saints. inheritance.”
"Don't be blinded by negative emotions like jealousy. You are my child and you need to look at the problem from all angles. The Azure Orb has been passed down for thousands of years since the saints, but it has been silent since the third saint guarded the abyss until Four hundred years ago, the ancestors of the Radcliffe family destroyed Chaos and awakened the power of the Chaos Guardians. Now, this generation of Lord Radcliffe has taken it a step further, that is his strength."
He lowered his head, looked at his child seriously, and said in a deep voice: "Luck is a part of strength. It is true to say that. A person's life is unpredictable, but without strength, even if it is the opportunity given to you by fate, Even when it comes, you can’t grasp it.”
After saying that, he didn't pay attention to his son's unconvinced eyes, but fell into thinking.
A warrior who understood the ultimate intention and advanced to the golden level before he was twenty-five years old... This means that he is destined to become a powerful extreme intention, and at such a young age, he may even advance to the legendary level in the future.
Looking at his son attentively, the emperor aroused a different thought in his heart.
—Time is gradually passing, the entire Northern Empire is gradually getting warmer, and the real spring is about to come.
Because of the students of Nostradamus, news about Joshua and others going to another world and returning spread in the Imperial Royal Mage Academy, and then gradually spread to the high-ranking nobles of the entire imperial capital.
When conducting transactions with the outside world, the dwarves spoke of this matter without any concealment, as a talking point worth boasting about, but in their mouths, the protagonist was not Joshua, but the old dwarf Moria.
In the mouths of these two groups of people, Joshua, Moria and others have almost become characters in myths and legends, especially the black-haired warrior who returned from tearing the time and space channel in front of everyone. Now, even if he usually focuses on hunting and exploring The hunters and adventurers gradually came to know his name.
It didn't take long for the entire empire to know that in the Moldavia Territory in the north, there was a powerful lord with extraordinary strength, and in his territory, there was even a passage to another world - in that world, He has the secret to being so powerful.
Although there have been very strange deviations in the spread of this news, it is actually not wrong. This has undoubtedly attracted a large number of curious adventurers to explore.
Starfall 832, March 27th.
The snow melts and spring arrives.
In the Black Forest of Moldavia, the sun vine sown by Claire has spread to every corner of the forest. Its roots penetrate deeply into the soil, absorbing the negative and chaotic atmosphere. Its originally white body surface was gradually stained with layers of black light, until finally, it even turned into a dark brown appearance.
After almost two months of absorption and transformation, the chaotic power absorbed from the Sun Vine finally reached its limit. When the first warm wind and sunshine of spring came to this bitter cold land, accompanied by a slight crackling sound, the black Countless gray-green buds sprouted from the vines. These vigorous buds grew rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then turned into clusters of buds, bathed in the sun.
The flowers bloomed and exploded into countless gray flying catkins that filled the sky. In the slight crackling sound like flames burning dead wood, the gray catkins turned into a rising cloud and covered the entire black forest. These catkins carried a trace of With the power of chaos, they flutter in the wind, and then under the sunlight, they are purified into crystal fly ash and scattered on the earth, adding fertility to the land.
This year will definitely be a good year.
Countless adventurers live in the main city of Moldavia. They set out from here to hunt monsters and explore the depths of the mountains. Then they bring back the corpses of monsters and precious ores, drink and laugh in the tavern. Incessantly.
The caravans of large groups carry rare goods and sell them to local residents and generous passers-by. Whether they are weapons or fruits and vegetables, they will be sold quickly. These caravans who have obtained the Moldavia trade permission order do not hesitate at all. After the sale was over, they immediately returned to the central area of the empire with a warehouse full of harvests and special products. Before the next winter came, they could probably trade back and forth three times, and the profits were huge enough to drive others crazy.
At this time, Joshua, who was training his own city guards and knight guards, also received news from the imperial capital.
That's the message from businessman Alfonso
"Is the early spring auction about to begin?"
Ah, yesterday’s second update was late! I didn’t ask for the last wave of double monthly passes (sad)
