The aircraft landed safely and smoothly on the runway, and the passengers around Xavier couldn't help but feel relieved, and then gave the pair of alarmist brothers and sisters a reproachful look.
"sorry!"
Xavier dragged his sister down to the cabin as if fleeing, and ran out of the airport hall all the way.
"Hey! Wait! Wait!"
At this time, the uncle who was equipped with the [Xunying] watch chased after him: "Your wallet has been lost..."
"Oh! Thank you, uncle!"
Jiaer took the pink toy purse with a bear pattern in the opponent's hand, and thanked him politely.
"Haha... I'm only twenty-five, don't call me uncle! You can just call me Wuyan..."
The middle-aged uncle with bearded face smiled wryly: "Where are your names?"
"My name is Xavier, this is my younger sister Jiaer, we are here to enroll..."
Xavier pulled his sister and said very cautiously.
"That's it... This is my communication number. I have something to do with this Wanxiong City. Remember to call me if you need anything!"
As if seeing the guard in Xavier's eyes, the young uncle Wuyan smiled without hesitation, reported a long number, and then walked into the crowd with a wave of his hand.
"Jia'er, don't talk to strangers casually in the future!"
After watching Wuyan leave, Xavier immediately put on a straight face and educated his sister.
"But... I feel that the black-eyed uncle is a good person..." Jia'er bit her lip.
"Stop trusting those instincts and live like a normal person..."
Xavier sighed, and immediately seemed to let go of all the burdens, and took Jiaer to stop a round taxi that had no tires and was half floating in the air, and directly merged into the main road that looked like the main artery of the city...
However, neither Xavier nor his younger sister Jiaer noticed that a trace of black hair had already wrapped around their brother and sister. This is an ability between the real world and the second dimension, even the two brothers and sisters with amazing perceptions do not have it. Discover.
"I didn't expect... you can see the blood of Wan Snake just by walking around!"
Leylin said with emotion, from the brothers and sisters, he felt the authentic aura of the blood of ten thousand snakes. Although it is very meager, it does exist.
Especially that kind of talent with high perception can predict the future a little bit, especially the vague sense of Leylin's existence - even if the previous Leylin didn't deliberately cover it up, it is still a very remarkable thing.
Therefore, Leylin made an exception and lowered his attention a little, and even left his own coordinates on the pair of brothers and sisters.
He was standing in the middle of the hustle and bustle of people, but the hurried pedestrians all turned a blind eye to him, their eyes kept scanning the surroundings, and the expression on their faces became more and more emotional.
Whether it is the hundreds of storey steel buildings rising from the ground, or the residential houses divided into grids, or even the huge floating advertisements, as well as the maglev trains and the transparent tubular vehicle passages all over the city, Leylin There is a vague sense of familiarity, and even the illusion of returning to the previous life.
"No wonder I saw the light of civilization on the sea of force in the shadow world... This has obviously gone through several revolutions in technology and technology... and the population is quite scary..."
With just a cursory glance, Leylin felt that there are no less than ten million people in this million-bear market.
And such a city, judging from the information he obtained on the plane before, is just a medium-sized administrative city of an empire. Calculating this way, the total population of the entire shadow world may have caught up with the wizard world. Of course, even the underground The wizarding world that counts the world together!
"The development of science and technology has always been the path that is most suitable for ordinary creatures..."
For ordinary and ordinary individuals without extraordinary abilities, gathering people and technology is the best way, especially when there is a black hand behind the scenes who is constantly promoting it.
"Compared to the extreme increase in the number of ordinary individuals, the extraordinary individuals in this world seem to be greatly restricted..."
Leylin recalled the [Xunying] wristwatch that he had seen before. This kind of thing seems to be widely equipped among the common people here. Of course, it is just the old model that Xavier said before, and it can only cast 0-2 level spells. .
"Extraordinary energy has been completely turned into a tool. As long as you pay a little money, can even children download spells from the Shadow Magic Web and use them?"
There was a gleam of interest in Leylin's eyes: "What does this girl of the night want to do?"
His eyes swept away, and then he saw a huge projection screen in the sky.
Numerous light and shadow special effects were released into the midair, forming a huge sky curtain. It used to be an advertisement for a certain product, but now it's time for news:
"A few days ago, affected by the discovery of new energy mines, the energy sector of the stock market plummeted across the board, and trading has been suspended today!"
"The imperial prime minister's wife attended the charity show in the capital's Shangri-La Garden to raise donations for the refugees in the thirteen coastal cities affected by the shadow storm. Relevant analysts believe that this is..."
"In response to the illegal transactions of the [Xunying] Type 5, the Ministry of Security once again reiterated its determination to crack down, and will launch a joint operation in the near future, targeting all kinds of counterfeit documents, especially those who have purchased the [Xunying] Type 5 Trade certificate and undergraduate diploma…”
"Urgent notice: Anduo City was hit by a meteorite 3 hours and 12 minutes ago, causing several buildings to collapse. The surrounding area was visibly shaken, and the direct economic loss was 37.85 million. The casualty information is currently unknown... The local garrison has intervened..."
The announcer in a professional suit introduced it in a serious voice, and in the following picture, there was a picture of heavily armed soldiers entering Ando City in line.
"Is the reaction fast!"
Leylin shook his head, and immediately stopped paying attention.
An emerging technological empire is backed by the unfathomable existence of Ms. Ye. Once pushed, the energy it can release is terrifying.
The splendor of the ancient Nether Arcane Empire speaks for itself, it is an existence that can fight against the gods!
Leylin had no doubts that once the opponent used some hole cards, it would only be a matter of time before his voodoo dolls were discovered.
However, Leylin was very satisfied with things that were thrown out to attract attention.
"Hmm! Maybe I should read more news recently, maybe there is news about the Mother of Ten Thousand Snakes..."
There was a hint of a smile on the corner of Leylin's mouth.
According to his observations, the current shadow world and the shadow world mentioned by the mother of all snakes are completely two eras, just like the difference between the earth in the middle ages in the previous life and the earth in the 21st century.
Therefore, that old-fashioned existence might easily make some jokes, and now that communication is so developed, it might be photographed on the news.
However, these are minor details, presumably with the savvy of ten thousand snakes, after making a few jokes, they will immediately realize the difference and hide it.
"In other words, after the voodoo doll, the opponent is my biggest target..."
Leylin's gaze flickered.
Although he came at the invitation of Wan Snake, he has no obligation to be the nanny of the other party.
"For the time being, we still focus on gathering information. We cannot rashly access the Shadow Magic Web. We must find an opportunity..."
Leylin watched the looping content on the news, and suddenly had an idea in his mind.
…
Outside the urban area, in a small two-story villa.
Compared with the various high-tech equipment outside, the interior decoration of this villa looks a bit quaint, or in other words, full of the antiquated feeling of the times.
"I didn't expect that there is no maintenance here in my hometown, but it can still be lived in!"
Jiaer wiped the sweat off her face, her dusty hands immediately left several black marks on her face, like a little cat.
Wearing an apron, Xavier, who was cooking in a frying pan, frowned: "It's so dirty! Hurry up and wash it..."
This is their hometown, which has been abandoned for many years. If it wasn't because they were going back to school, Xia Weier and his sister would not live in it if it happened to be needed.
However, after cleaning, it is barely habitable.
"I really don't know why my parents didn't sell this place at the beginning. Is it really what they said, our family was here hundreds of years ago, this is our ancestral home?"
Xavier obviously didn't believe it. After dinner, he made a video call, and there was a kind-hearted couple on the opposite side.
"I've tidied up everything..." Xavier said casually.
"Yeah! Xiaoxia, you have to take on the responsibilities of an adult and take good care of your sister..."
The middle-aged man in the video said, with a sudden hesitation on his face: "Also... there are some things in the mezzanine of the study above my hometown, you can take a look if you have nothing to do..."
"Oh! That damn book? I read it all over when I was three years old..."
Xavier said nonchalantly.
"What???" The voice on the other side rose an octave, and the man held his heart even more, with an expression of being unable to accept it.
"Isn't it just a broken book full of weird fantasies and ghostly things? Thanks to you, you still hide it like a family heirloom. The key is that you don't hide it well..."
Xavier rolled his eyes, then had a quick chat with his parents, then hung up the communication.
"It's a big tome... I really miss it..."
However, having said that, Xavier came to the study on the upper floor out of some kind of warm memory, and found the tome hidden in the mezzanine.
Due to the accumulation of time, the cover of the book has long been blurred, and a thick layer of dust has accumulated, which made Xavier have to clean it up again with a bitter face.
"The history of this book... I believe it is a thousand years..."
