"Did you take a break from school?"
"Yeah, I didn't even take the final exam, so I applied for a one-year leave of absence on the grounds of sick leave."
"Don't mention it. It is said that the other party's parents came to the school to handle the procedures for him."
"I'll go, it's such a big fuss."
"Isn't that right? He was addicted to the game Arthur before and didn't go to class for a whole year. As soon as he stopped playing the game, he couldn't bear it mentally and collapsed."
"This will definitely become an example for counselors to educate new students next year."
"It'll be fine if you review carefully. As for gossip?" Zhang Qi, who was taking notes in the study room, couldn't help but stand up and said angrily when he heard these gossips.
"Don't be like this, Zhang Qi." Feng Ge was afraid of a conflict and quickly grabbed Zhang Qi.
After watching everyone shut up, Zhang Qicai sat down with an annoyed look on his face and continued to copy the key points that Feng Ge had drawn for him.
At the same time, he also looked out the window and couldn't help but think to himself.
Zhao Xu, which city are you hanging out in now? ���
With the suspension of Arthur's service, the entire game forum also quickly closed down.
The once-famous IDs "Dongcheng Ling", "Zhongxia", and "Wang Ningwei" have gradually entered the depths of players' memories.
There are only a few game-related forums left, and occasionally a post pops up asking where these people have gone.
The huge turmoil caused by Dongcheng Ling's account lock became a joke as the night passed calmly.
However, Arthur's entire staff was refunded and the game was discontinued later, which occupied the page. Therefore, the whole wave was wiped out midway before it reached its peak.
Zhao Xu, the triggerman of the turmoil, was sitting silently on the high-speed train, looking out the window at the pastoral scenery passing behind him, and thinking about everything that had happened recently.
Zhao Xu didn't care much about not traveling through time.
But the sudden interruption also made him wonder if there was really something abnormal happening on Arthur's side.
Especially since his mentor Antinoya has been sneaking into Baator Hell alone for four months, and he could still be seen returning occasionally for ten days and a half in the past.
For a whole month, Antinoya did not appear again.
Now, the material energy channel has not opened the transmission as promised, which makes Zhao Xu even more suspicious that something happened to Antinoya, so the floating city fell into chaos and delayed the matter.
Or perhaps, humans on Earth were excluded from the plan at the last moment and would no longer be transported through time. They could only wait silently for the demise of the universe that would occur within a few years.
After understanding this, Zhao Xu suddenly felt an obsession and wanted to see the great rivers and mountains of this world.
Therefore, after a detailed discussion with his parents, he took a sick leave to recuperate for a year.
"Are you also an Arthur player?" Suddenly the girl sitting next to her asked in surprise. She saw the word page of Zhao Xu's notebook placed on the folding table.
Inside is the content of the "Malicious Transformation Technique" that he hand-drawn and reproduced.
"Wow, you were a mage before, right? You must be a high-level player. I think my classmates are not as good as you as mage." The girl with the luggage exclaimed.
Zhao Xu glanced at the other person and instantly judged that he was a student who had completed the college entrance examination and was going on a graduation trip.
He just smiled silently and did not answer further.
The time travel didn't happen.
But Zhao Xu's memory is still there. Relying on the ability of the wise caster, he still hasn't forgotten all the spells from zero to five rings.
Therefore, during this period of time, whenever he had free time, he was sorting out and consolidating the contents of the spell.
"Hey, Arthur has more than a dozen formed languages. I said it was true. I was the first to agree, but I didn't expect that it would end up being the same as before." The girl also lamented her original experience.
There was a trace of bitterness in Zhao Xu's smile.
He turned and looked out the window.
He also slowly arrived at the destination city. ���
It was midsummer, and Zhao Xu, who was wearing a pair of shorts and a clover T-shirt, just stepped out of the platform when he saw a delicate and lovely girl who looked like she was walking out of a picture. She jumped up suddenly and shook her hands towards her.
"Ningwei?"
Zhao Xu almost didn't recognize this woman who looked stunning after time travel.
"Come here, Zhao Xu." Wang Ningwei smiled happily and greeted Zhao Xu happily.
Zhao Xu, who was traveling around the great mountains and rivers of his motherland, naturally pushed his suitcase all the way there, and suddenly found a girl he was very familiar with standing behind Wang Ningwei to pick him up in the car.
"Zhao Xu, no, I should say Mr. Zhongxia, long time no see."
Zheng Xinyun pouted and said to Zhao Xu.
"Huh? Have you met before?" Wang Ningwei, who had a fair and rosy face, asked in surprise.
"Haha." Zhao Xu also patted his head and fooled him on the spot.
Obviously, at this time, Zheng Xinyun had recognized that Zhao Xu was the man who gave her the Arthur activation code during the concert.
"Get in the car first." Wang Ningwei said.
She and Zheng Xinyun had already attracted a lot of curious eyes when they picked up the car here, and there were also a few people who struck up a conversation, not to mention a driver who asked if he wanted to rent a car.
Zhao Xu followed the two of them to the temporary parking lot without saying a word.
Until he saw Wang Ningwei opening the door of the Cayenne, he couldn't help but sigh, "Sure enough, loli and rich are linked."
"Hmph, I'm not a lolita. This term is similar to what you give Yoona." Wang Ningwei protested with a snort.
With that said, Zhao Xu had already put away the suitcase and got into the passenger seat.
"Zhongxia, how long are you going to come to this city to relax this time?" Wang Ningwei started the car and drove out of the parking lot.
"Let's see. Anyway, I took a year off, so I'll take it wherever I go." Zhao Xu replied.
"Keep up the good work, Zhongxia!" Zheng Xinyun, who was sitting in the back row, said, "It just stopped suddenly, it's nothing."
"Hey, I'm not as fragile as you think." Zhao Xu smiled.
Just saying that, he turned back to look at Zheng Xinyun and Wang Ningwei, "Speaking of which, your encouragement is just verbal. It's too insincere."
"Hmph, I didn't expect you to be such a pervert. You still want a knee pillow or a loving hug." Zheng Xinyun said with a hint of annoyance, "Sister Ningwei, hurry up and get him out of the car. It's a shame that I'm encouraging him." Cheer up."
"Idiot Yun'er, look, he suddenly changed the topic." Wang Ningwei also instantly noticed Zhao Xu's intention to change the topic and joked directly.
Then the three of them started playing around here.
After returning to the city, Wang Ningwei found Zhao Xu a hotel near her community to settle in, and then took him and Yoona to visit popular attractions in the city.
"Zhao Xu, there are too many children in Disneyland during the summer vacation, and today is the weekend for parents to rest, so I won't take you there until there are fewer people on Monday." Wang Ningwei apologized.
After a day of traveling, the three people who specially found a place to have a late-night snack gathered around an open-air bar. There were already a lot of ordered barbecues piled on the table, and a full dozen beers were placed in the ice bucket next to them. However, in front of Zheng Xinyun It's juice.
On the first floor below, a female singer was humming folk songs, and cheers came from time to time.
"Well, actually I'm not very interested either." As Zhao Xu said, he received slightly hostile looks from the two girls, "Well, actually I quite want to go, and I was just about to thank you for letting me It’s a lot of experience.”
In an instant, Wang Ningwei and Zheng Xinyun, who were laughing out loud, were discussing the clothes they would wear when going out the day after tomorrow.
"I just want to relax and eat and drink. Why are you coming to Ningwei's place, Yoon'er?" Zhao Xu asked curiously.
"When you said you were coming to visit Sister Ningwei, Sister Ningwei also invited me." Zheng Xinyun held her head high and said proudly: "It's just that I'm not like someone who came by long-distance high-speed rail. The plane, of course, will be here soon."
"Hey, my high-speed rail ticket to Shanghai is not cheaper than the air ticket, okay? I just want to see the scenery along the way." Zhao Xu said.
"I flew first class." Zheng Xinyun ended the conversation between the two.
"Then what are your plans next? Zhongxia." Wang Ningwei asked softly.
As soon as the words fell, the three of them looked at each other silently.
Because the three people here are all "fellow travelers" who have seen Arthur's extraordinary power, know Arthur's real existence, and are convinced that he will travel through time.
"No way."
Zhao Xu silently picked up the roasted water spinach and put it into his mouth, "The meteor didn't come that night. Even now, I'm still confused in my mind."
"Hehe, me too." Zheng Xinyun also scratched his head, "I was almost scolded to death by my dad afterward. But later they felt that I was hallucinating due to too much stress in the college entrance examination, so they didn't say much."
"What about you, Ningwei?" Zhao Xu asked curiously. He was using mental illness to escape. He couldn't help but be curious about Wang Ningwei's strategy.
"Me? My mother only pays attention to her Shanghai Stock Exchange, Nasdaq Index, strategic plans, etc. She doesn't care at all about what I say to her."
"that is."
Wang Ningwei also showed a bitter smile as she said this, "Zhongxia, is the game really over here?"
At this time, Zhao Xu also wanted to reassure the other party that they could still enter.
But he found that he could not speak.
Lies have no meaning at all between two people.
Zhao Xu raised his head and looked at the sky that was similar to a month ago, "I can't help it."
"But I heard a statement before."
"What?"
"The seventh month in the absence of God."
"It's foggy." Zheng Xinyun commented.
She was the only one who had truly come into contact with divine power, but she lowered her head in deep thought.
"Could it be that because the divine power disappeared throughout July, nothing can be sensed? Naturally, the time travel also disappeared?"
As soon as Wang Ningwei said this, Zhao Xu, who was sitting beside him, seemed to have cleared away the fog.
What he once thought was that the saint Arthur descended to earth at a certain moment and no longer existed in the Kingdom of God.
But he didn't expect that it was the reason why the time travel was delayed.
Zheng Xinyun also clapped her hands and said, "Today happens to be the last day of July."
After hearing this, Zhao Xu couldn't help but raise his head and look at the sky above the Magic City, where he could only vaguely make out the Big Dipper and a few other stars.
But he never lowered his head again.
I saw only the top of everyone's heads.
Countless meteors followed one after another, pulling long tails, and golden trails cut through the sky.
Finally worn it, don’t keep your monthly pass.
