Blooming Tower of the West Wind

The author has something to say: a single chapter.

Please rub the dog consciously!

For the sake of everyone being a dog!

Both of them were wearing thin clothes, and the thick fur covered them from head to toe, and the only cold in the desert at night was also isolated from the outside. Under Theron's careful control, nothing leaked in.

To this end, her hand occasionally crosses the invisible dividing line in the middle and occasionally touches Hipper's body.

The thin fabric can't block anything at all, the soft touch and slightly higher temperature of the skin, the soft breathing and the uncontrollable light panting are all magnified in the too close intimate distance.

Zoom in, zoom in again.

Hipper's heart was beating fast, and she didn't dodge any of Theron's unintentional touch. She had politely dodged, and then returned to a distance of relative respect for the other party, but she didn't, and a sense of immorality arose, faintly Jojo poked her heart and accused her of being irrational and undecent.

She sat up a little more quietly, and her body was no longer clinging to Theron because of relaxation, so there was a gap between the two of them.

She was a little bit reluctant to leave her warm body, and even wanted to lean back. This is the instinctive demand of the human body-what's the reason?It's so clumsy, how can an archmage degenerate to the point where he needs to share his body temperature with others to keep warm?

What if Theron posted it?Before she could think of any countermeasures, Theron had already posted it, and when she didn't know what to do, Theron also brought a question to ease the embarrassment: "Teacher, we haven't discussed my measurement yet." What about the steps?"

"My little beast, are you worried about this problem so you can't sleep?" Hipper laughed and turned sideways to see her expression.

Theron replied seriously: "Maybe, isn't it important? Isn't it a very important thing?"

Hipper couldn't help smoothing out the circle of hair on her head, "I don't look at it, it doesn't mean I don't value your results. In fact, I can see it tomorrow morning. Our time is not very tight, but I don't mind. Tell me now, eh?"

The Archmage's attention has been drawn away by this life-saving straw.

Theron smiled, and leaned on her shoulder, his voice was still a little sticky after waking up, "Well... I want to determine the scope of crystallization tomorrow, and roughly guess the center from its geometric shape before drawing Some equidistant lines are used as auxiliary lines, and then straight lines are drawn from the center to the border, and the gauge is placed at the intersection of the straight line and the equidistance line, so that we can also verify that the readings are attenuated according to the geometric center."

"Sounds good, what's the purpose of this?"

Theron froze for a moment, then asked shyly and shyly as if he had been caught and made a mistake: "I wrote too generally, right? I'm sorry, teacher..."

"Relax, we're just chatting casually."

"The purpose is to get the difference between the reading in the middle of the crystallization point and the reading at the boundary as accurately as possible, and to verify whether the crystallization reading is related to the geometry of the crystallization range. Actually, I still have a question..."

"What is it? I'm interested to know."

"Are you really interested?" Theron asked.

Hipper replied, "I've always been interested in your ideas."

"Why does the crystallization disappear? Why does the energy of the veins change?"

"There is a hypothesis like this, which is the mainstream hypothesis at present, but it has not been well verified: the crystallized rock has a certain pressure on the energy of the veins, and the thicker the crystallization, the greater the pressure on the veins , so the energy of the leylines changes direction and is released from places where the crystallization is relatively weak."

"what do you think?"

"There are many doubts about this hypothesis. For example, if this is the case, the mature leyline crystallization should have a wide range, and the entire interior of Traur should be crystallized. If the leyline crystallization is not one, There is also no way to explain why it can develop in isolation from all over the world. In short, it cannot explain all the phenomena of the leylines, but there is no more reasonable explanation than it, and we are not familiar with the leylines."

"I have another question..."

"What's the problem, my..." Unlike before, she had an impulse to say "my cutie", an impulse to describe Theron in many intimate and informal terms. "Um?"

This soft question vibrated slightly, scratching Theron's ears and tickling her heart. She wanted to hear what came after "my". She always felt happy when Hipper said the word "little beast". It was exciting, she wanted it to be hers, it was a fact, but Hipper made her happy just by stating the facts.

"Ok?"

"Oh, my question is, how does crystallization choose what can be crystallized and what can't be crystallized?"

"Generally speaking, all rocks will be crystallized. As for the specific... I think it may be necessary to try all the rocks. In this way, we can add 'can be crystallized' and 'cannot be crystallized' on Lapais' manual. 'Crystalize' note, I thought someone would like it."

"'Of rock', I don't think that's a definition. Do you think bones and rocks have any similarities?"

"Hmm... are they all hard? Will they all turn into ashes after being calcined? Can they be dissolved in some kind of acid? They will hardly rot?" Hipper said casually.

"Will the bones be crystallized? You said on the road that from Virgil's description, the keel seems to be within the crystallization range."

Hipper replied: "Virgil didn't mention that the keel showed signs of being crystallized. Unless we can get a piece of keel to see, we can't know whether it is crystallized or not, and this is quite dangerous... I can use violence Expel them, but this will violate the law, and I will be held accountable by the Mage Guild."

"What about the gold badge?"

"Golden lily badge?... I don't want to reveal my identity to this group of people. I'm a reclusive scholar."

Hearing her reluctance, Theron patted her hand naturally and said, "Forget it."

Hipper was a little dumbfounded for a moment, Theron was like a little adult, and she was enjoying this kind of care from the younger generation.

However, she withdrew her hand calmly.You can't indulge, the archmage has achieved amazing achievements by relying on this kind of self-control, and others will never want to be like that in their lifetime, and they should show this spirit now.

But it's a lot of fun to get cranky with her.

"Can we actually see the keel tomorrow?"

Hipper nodded firmly.

"Have you and Virgil traveled to many places?"

"That's right, when I was in school, I didn't really want to go home during the holidays, so I wandered around the continent with Virgil, looking for missions to make money."

"Why...why do you need money?" Theron was in disbelief.She didn't have a particularly deep concept of money, so she always thought that the archmage had always been so rich.

"Because my parents interfered in my life, if I want to resist, I have to eat first. That's what we thought at the time. My mother wanted me to go back to Michelle to get married after graduation, and I wanted to buy a tower to continue my research work. Buy Tower needs money, but my family will never lend me the money. Virgil's situation is similar, I usually write scrolls to make money, and when I am on vacation, I go out with Virgil to find high-risk and high-paying jobs."

From Theron's eyes, she seemed to be listening to some incredible story, but she gradually became a little angry, her bulging face was round, Hipper couldn't help but asked with a smile: "What's the matter?" ? Why are things unhappy?"

"I want to too," she raised her face. "I also want to go on an adventure with you. You said during the day that you want to get to know me earlier. Now I also want to know you earlier."

Her eyes traced Hipper's eyebrows carefully, thinking about what she looked like when she was her age, was she also wearing a black robe, a neat suit, her hair was combed meticulously, and her expression was serious and indifferent?

Hipper asked, "What are you thinking?"

Her voice was soft and soft, full of an irresistible temptation, and Theron accidentally said what was in his heart: "What did you look like when you were my age? Are you the same as me?"

The archmage smiled and replied: "No, it's completely different. I was very serious at that time, I rarely talked, I was very boring, I had no entertainment, and I was a nerd."

"But, but I also...? I'm also quite boring."

"Boring? No, how come, you're funny, cute with kids but no hassles, too perfect to be true. You know what? Diego once told me about the potential troubles of young children, and I was mentally exhausted Get ready. But come to think of it, everything is going well except for your school stuff. So don't think so, you're an interesting guy."

"So teacher, you are also a very interesting person."

Hipper frowned slightly: "What's your definition of 'interesting'?"

"Talking to you keeps me interested, it's okay not to talk, it's fun to be with you. You're going to contradict me, aren't you? But I think 'interesting' is a subjective opinion and there's no way to argue it of."

It was not the first time that Theron had argued that she had nothing to say, but this feeling of love and hate was still fresh. She glanced at Theron, and the little girl smiled happily when she saw that she had nothing to say.

So Hipper asked: "Have you considered that the sand is not smooth? I took a rough look at the nearby terrain today. The sand dunes still exist. Although it is not very steep, according to your judgment, the distance is between The number one factor in your hypothesis that affects the crystallization reading."

Theron yawned silently. Obviously, this topic did not excite her, and the good body rhythm took advantage of it and dragged her into sleep.

"I thought, can't we dig up the dunes?"

"This is not the center of the desert. It is not easy to dig sand by hand." Earth elemental creatures cannot walk directly on the sand, they are too heavy and will sink into the sand immediately, so if they want to walk on the sand, they Will use "elemental walk", but then digging sand becomes a very restricted action.For example, when Hipper built Aimecotes, she needed to dig out the sand to expose the rock bed. She created a tornado directly in the middle of the empty desert, and used the suction of the wind to clear away the sand. Of course, it also caused some meteorological changes. .
