On the Seven Towers

Xiao Chen sat in his tent. Luo Ling's words made him feel depressed. He didn't understand what this woman was thinking. What was it to return the ring they found together? "Break up"?

He sighed. Women always speak with hints and metaphors, completely disregarding men's emotional intelligence.

He took out Luo Ling's ring and looked at it carefully. The milky white gemstone shone with stars, which was very consistent with the texture of the light whip, giving him a cold feeling, just like Luo Ling's attitude towards him.

The ring was a little small, but when Xiao Chen tried to wear it on his hand, it became bigger and just fit on his middle finger. Wearing this ring, Xiao Chen felt a sense of spiritual relaxation all over his body, slowly calming down the lingering anxiety.

It seemed that there was a force guiding Xiao Chen's mental power, allowing him to naturally enter a state of meditation.

Back to the world in the sea, Xiao Chen now stood on the deck and could almost control the surrounding area of ​​about three meters. As long as he controlled it with his heart, almost no rain and waves could knock him down.

But what surprised him was that this world was quieter than before. Although there were still lightning in the sky and waves in the sea, they were less violent.

Is this the power of the ring?

Xiao Chen carefully felt the changes in the world, and suddenly found that nine light balls appeared in the middle of the black clouds in the sky. Each of these light balls was larger than the sun. The light balls were arranged in a straight line and slowly began to rotate with the boat as the center. They moved one after another, and soon the first light ball fell from one side of the sky and fell into the sea, but it did not cause any movement and disappeared directly in the sea water. The second, third, fourth, and when the fifth light ball also fell into the sea, the first light ball rose from the other side of the sea. Soon, these light balls formed a ring, a ring that passed through the sky and the sea and revolved around Xiao Chen. There seemed to be countless runes in each light ball, forming different structures.

Huge and abnormal things have a shocking power. Xiao Chen looked at such a wonder in his meditation space at a loss, and let the waves wet his clothes again.

At this moment, a strange message reached his heart:

————————————————————————

"Lucky man:

What you have is the secret inheritance ring of me, the holy magician Antonio Gregorio. I learned from the Dream Tower, one of the seven holy towers. I learned and created many spells in my life. I stepped into the threshold of the holy land, but I didn't find an ideal successor. So I made this ring. For mortals with insufficient qualifications, the secret ring has only two functions, assisting mental training and releasing simple self-defense magic.

But for those who have the potential to become great magicians, the secret ring is a treasure to the peak of power. Every candidate will learn some spells that are most suitable for him after wearing this ring for the first time. When you master all the magic given to you by the ring, you can get the location of an island in the sea of ​​ice and snow, and then go there to find my magic tower-the Soul Forging Tower, and get my true inheritance..."

——————————————————————————

As long as you use mental power to understand the structure of the light ball, you can cast the corresponding magic? Xiao Chen was extremely excited. He had never found a suitable spell book, nor had he met a real magician. He had a lot of mental power, but he couldn't cast his own magic. Now the things brought by the secret ring are undoubtedly what he is extremely eager for. And he heard the three words "Dream Tower" again. The last time it came from the "Shadow Scroll of the Sea of ​​Consciousness", and this time it came from this ring. From this, it can be judged that the owner of the magic ancient house in Frollo Town must have an important relationship with the Dream Tower. But what exactly is the Dream Tower?

According to the records of the message, Xiao Chen tried to extend his mental power into a straight line and tried to contact the light ball. As soon as his power approached the first light ball, he felt a strong repulsive force coming from the ball, which broke his mental power into pieces. This is the case for every ball, but Xiao Chen found that the more balls there are behind, the less resistance there is. When he reached the eighth ball, he was almost able to penetrate it. When he reached the ninth ball, his mental power finally broke through the barrier outside the light ball and pierced in.

Xiao Chen felt that his mental power was lifted up by the running runes, and kept moving along a strange route. Over and over again, until this running method and trajectory had become an instinct for him.

"The first magic, the heart of fear, makes the opponent fall into extreme tension and fear, lose the will to fight, flee in panic or even die of fear."

When Xiao Chen woke up from meditation, the previous depression had been swept away. He knew that as long as he stepped up his practice, he would soon master the first magic and become a real magician.

I just don't know what Luo Ling's qualifications are. Has she learned these magics? Is letting me learn magic the real meaning of giving me the ring?

——————————————————————————

This is a grocery store on the main road of Floro Town. When Li Jia and Ji Yijun entered the store, there were no customers in the store, only two people snoring like thunder. He knew the man lying on the counter in the back. He was the translator Zhang Hong who went to town to make the first business together. The other man was wearing a military uniform and sleeping in the corner with a gun. He was probably sent by Wang Jiyuan to protect the shop. warrior. The two snored one after another, echoing each other, making Li Jia couldn't help but yawn.

I don't know whether it was because it was easy to fall asleep in the autumn afternoon, or because the light business kept people down. They didn't wake up until Li Jia stepped into the house, put away her luggage and made a series of noises.

"Just looking at the shop like this, the shop has not been emptied yet. The people in this town are so simple and lovely." The person who spoke was Ji Yijun. This guy had a bandage on his forehead, his eye sockets and corners of his mouth were also swollen, and he looked like he had just been repaired. He looked like he was having a rough time, but he was in good spirits, with his slippery eyes looking here and there.

"This is where the two of us will settle down for the next period of time." Li Jia saw that the two people were sleeping soundly inside, but he didn't want to wake them up. He walked to the window and leaned against the window edge. The so-called window was just a window. There is no glass at all in the opening where the fence is installed. This made him somewhat uncomfortable. No, a small flying insect flew in majestically and circled around Li Jia's hair. Li Jia waved his hands to drive away the bugs while looking outside.

The door is empty.

"I won't be tied here. One day I will go further. I will meet the masters of this world." Ji Yijun threw his luggage to the ground impatiently and found a chair to move up. He leaned back and crossed his legs.

"Have you told your dad about this?"

"Why didn't you say it? But they always think that I am causing trouble. In fact, I also want to understand the world and our potential enemies for the sake of the school! If I don't go out to see the world, do I have to hide in a broken school like an ostrich for the rest of my life? Even if it's true After hiding for a lifetime, we built a Shanghai city in a different world, so what? In this different world, shouldn’t we pursue something different from the original one?”

"Actually, I think everyone is working hard in their own way." This is Li Jia's true words. In fact, everyone knows that surviving in a different world is not that easy.

"Hmph, those boring people who pursued power in the original world continued to pursue power here. Principal Guo, who only held meetings and gave speeches, became the top leader of this group of people in a few days. He is even more prestigious than he was on Earth. Those who pursued profit in the original world still pursue profit here. Bai Yicheng, who thinks about what he can sell every day and how many gold coins he can exchange for it, still can't wash away the smell of copper after traveling through time. There are also those who were just messing around in the past. After working in factories, night schools, and escorts, I still don’t know what I want to do every day. Isn’t it boring that I want to start a new life and find a new dream?”

"This...how do you know they don't have their own dreams? Besides, if everyone is like you and looks for their own dreams, wouldn't the school be disbanded?" Li Jia frowned, feeling that Ji Yijun was really a self-centered person. Center guy. He vaguely felt that bringing this troublemaker here might not be a good choice.

"I thought you were not an ordinary person if you were willing to run out. I didn't expect that when you opened your mouth, you said this nonsense: 'What if everyone did the same thing'. Since I was a child, my teacher has said, what if everyone spits, what if everyone doesn't line up, how can there be so many people? "Ji Yijun put down his legs, sat up straight, pointed in the direction of the school and said: "Over there, more than 600 people are still huddled in the wall. What you should say is, what will happen if no one wants to make progress? ? "

"Everything is easier said than done." Li Jia waved his hands displeasedly, not wanting to fight with Ji Yijun. He left the window edge and prepared to wake up the two sleepy men inside.

But Ji Yijun didn't let him go, and followed behind him and continued: "It's just people like you who only think about difficulties in everything, and abandon your dreams in reality."

"How do you know I don't have dreams?" Li Jia sighed. The flash-in-the-pan figure in a dress suddenly appeared in his mind. For a moment, it seemed that all the strength was gone, and even the steps became much heavier.

"Then let's talk and listen! Maybe I can help you realize your dream together."

"Okay, okay, let's do some practical work first. Don't forget how your dad fixed you before. Be careful if you cause trouble here and it will be reported to him and he will ask you to go back to school to move bricks."

Li Jia's words reminded Ji Yijun of the violent storm he experienced after the ring that day. Shi Hao's accusation, Wang Jiyuan's reprimand, Zhou Xiaoren's questioning, and his father's beating were all still fresh in his memory. The final result was that he was kicked out of the escort team. If he hadn't heard that the station in Floro Town needed more manpower, and took the initiative to apply and come here before his father took action, I really don't know what his strict father would have sent him to do.

"They don't understand anything!" Ji Yijun slapped his palm on the counter, finally waking up the "shopkeeper" Zhang Hong and the soldier.

Thanks to the leaves of the winter-worn sycamore tree and book friend usagibooboo for the reward.
