The Magician of the Star

On this lonely planet with no one else, Shen Xingji and Slessor finally decided to sit down and have a good talk.Since we are both travelers in time and space, it is also a kind of fate that we can meet at this place and this timeline.

Of course, it is impossible for the two of them to immediately become bosom friends who can talk about everything.

Who would easily hand over their fate to others?

Shen Xingji used a tool to reinsert a few fish, and used the seasonings provided by Slesser—these seasonings have passed the component analysis, are indeed serious seasonings, and do not contain weird things—put them on the shelf roasting.

While waiting for the fish to be cooked, they had some simple exchanges with each other with reservations.

Through communication, Shen Xingji learned that Slessor was a magician from the shining city of Kegalanka.Unlike the descriptions in some novels about comprehension and magic, the reason why magicians can use magic does not depend on the aura or magical elements between heaven and earth—in Slessor’s hometown, there is no aura or magical elements at all. The term magic element—it comes from the power inherited in the blood.It is said that the first generation of magicians were descendants of the God Anna and a mortal woman. These descendants multiplied and multiplied on the mainland, and eventually formed a family of magicians with a long history.

Slessor also knew about Shen Xingji's experience of fleeing all the way.Not counting the age before rebirth, he had just turned eighteen, a few years younger than Slessor.He has a bright future, not only won No.1 in the Sprout Cup Mech Innovation Contest jointly organized by many institutions of higher learning, but also successfully entered a top-ranked good university.However, on his way to report to school on the Daniel, they encountered the Star Thief.Shen Xingji escaped in an independently operated maintenance cabin.The endurance of the inspection cabin was not enough, so he chose the NML5056592 star among the limited landing options.

Slessor had absolutely no concept of "planet" or "space" in his heart, so Shen Xingji's statement caused an uproar in his heart.But he didn't want to show timidity in front of Bula, and he still had an elegant and calm look on his face: "So you fell from the sky? Are you planning to go back to the sky in the future? There are only two of us in this land now?"

But the magician didn't know that he asked these few questions quite poorly, and he was already showing his timidity!

Shen Xingji's fear of Slessor suddenly dissipated a lot.

So what about magicians, what about unpredictable means, can you return to space by magic?Can you go back to the world of human civilization by magic?As long as you don't want to stay on this uninhabited planet as a savage, you can't offend me!

Shen Xingji said calmly: "Because of your sudden appearance, I thought there was an illegal human base on this planet. But since you traveled through time, it means that the information I collected is correct. This is an uninhabited planet. star."

Slessor snorted.

Shen Xingji turned the faces of a few fish: "To be precise, this should be an uninhabited resource star. Although this place is not suitable for living, it has very rich mineral resources. Decades ago, the army installed An intelligent mining system has been installed. As long as we find the mining center, we can take a fully automatic transport ship back to the central galaxy. But it is difficult to find, because the magnetic field of the planet is chaotic. In order to avoid the interference of ionospheric magnetic storms, the mining center is buried deep underground. 6000 meters deep."

"6000 meters?" Slessor's hometown did not have such units of measurement as "kilometers" or "meters".

"Um...we are about 300 meters away from the other side of the lake, and 6000 meters is [-] such distances. In short, if you try to find the mining center on this planet with your naked eyes, you will never be able to find it in your life." Shen Xing It seems to be stating the facts objectively, but in fact, these words imply the importance of oneself, "But you don't have to worry too much, I am building an R-type detector, because the R-type detector can locate the artificial intelligence. instruction."

Slessor didn't know what an intelligent system was, didn't know what an ionospheric storm was, and didn't know what an R-type detector was.He didn't think that Shen Xingji was playing tricks, smart people wouldn't tell lies that could be easily exposed.

But Slesser could sense that Shen Xingji was about to move.This bra is taking the initiative!

The magician chuckled, changed the subject directly, and brought the topic back to his familiar field very roguely: "You seem to have mastered a lot of profound knowledge, which is very good. I rarely see Bula who is as diligent as you. , You must know that most of the wisdom of the world comes from hard work. If you are a magician, I believe you will be able to achieve extraordinary achievements."

After a pause, the magician said again: "Because you have never been exposed to magic before, so you don't understand what kind of power of time and space exists. But with your intelligence, as long as I explain it to you in detail, it must be very fast. You can understand it.”

These long paragraphs sounded like praises to Shen Xingji, but they were actually just Slesser's social etiquette.What Slesser is really saying is: "A person who has traveled through time and space will inevitably have the power of time and space left in him. Just like a person who is injured, even if the wound heals, it will leave a scar on the affected area. Time and space The power of power exists in your body, invisible and intangible, but it can bring you many bad influences. We must suppress it."

"You are a magician, but I am just an ordinary person..."

"Ordinary people don't experience time and space travel. People who have experienced time and space travel are not ordinary people. I am not alarmist. Although I don't know how the power of time and space will affect Pura, scars also affect the appearance. "

While talking, the fish was cooked, and the taste was very different after adding condiments.

"It's delicious." Slesser praised again, "You are really talented in choosing ingredients."

The ingredients were indeed selected by Shen Xingji, but the seasoning was provided by Slesser. The reason why the fish can become delicious is inseparable from the addition of seasonings.Shen Xingji understood the magician's hint - the cooperation between the two will usher in a win-win situation.

In fact, Shen Xingji does not have enough time. Human beings must not live on NML5056592 for a long time. If they stay in this chaotic magnetic field for a long time, problems will occur in the endocrine system and nervous system.He held up a bunch of grilled fish that he had already gnawed twice and said, "May I ask, is there any reduction magic in the magician's rules? For example, this fish has been grilled by us. Can you look at it? Does it cast a spell to restore it to what it hadn't been roasted not so long ago?"

Slesser said two words reservedly and proudly: "Yes."

Shen Xingji immediately put down the fish, stomped and ran back to the independent cabin, took out a set of parts from the scrapped signal transmitter, and quickly ran back to Slesser, holding up the parts and saying: "Please restore them to be intact look."

This group of extremely critical parts burned out due to overloading during landing.

Slesser smirked, took out the magic scroll again, and said calmly, "Please sign a contract with me."

Shen Xingji: "..."

Signing an equal contract requires "mortgage".This collateral is usually paid later.For example, someone signed a contract with half of the magic power. After the contract is established, he will not lose that half of the magic power on the spot. Only when he breaks the contract will he need to pay the price.If he does not violate the contract for a lifetime, then he will not lose his magic power for a lifetime.

But Slessor had an extremely genius idea, he wanted to pay first!

He wanted to mortgage the power of time and space in advance!Directly use the power of law in the contract to seal the power of time and space.If they don't break the contract, the power of time and space will always be sealed by the contract, and will not have any impact on their lives; and if they breach the contract, the power of time and space will be taken away by the law, and they will lose the gift of time and space.

"So we went for the breach of contract from the beginning, using the power of the law to eliminate the power of time and space?"

"That's not the case. As I said before, the power of time and space is the scar left on our body. Although it affects the appearance, it is the proof of wound healing, so we can't lose it. It is sealed by the law, it doesn't matter, Because its owner is still ourselves. But once it is taken away by the law...you think, the scar is gone, and the wound will return to its unhealed appearance, and we will be abandoned in the torrent of time and space at the moment of breach of contract middle."

"I have another question, we hate 'scars', can they really be used as collateral?" Shen Xingji asked.

"Of course, scars are part of our body. Since they are part of us, we can certainly use them as collateral." Slessor is like a black-hearted businessman, "The collateral needs to meet two conditions at the same time. It must be very precious, and the collateral provided by the two parties needs to be the same in value. We are already satisfied."

There has never been a successful time traveler in the history of the Magic Continent that has clear records. In this regard, the power of time and space is indeed precious and rare.And from the perspective of the price to be paid for breach of contract, it is indeed very, very important.

Slesser said with a smile: "There are very few people like us who not only took out a pledge that is more important than life, but are also willing to seal the precious pledge at the moment of signing the contract, so that it will be kept forever Under the witness of the law."

Shen Xingji: "..."

It's amazing, obviously the law is regarded as a free custodian, but the words are so righteous and awe-inspiring.

"Are you taking advantage of the law?" Shen Xingji asked sincerely.

"On the contrary, doesn't it prove our respect for the law?" Slessor asked sincerely.

Where is this? A certain master who is good at alchemy took advantage of the loopholes in the law and extended his life to more than 800 years old. A certain family also took advantage of the loopholes in the law and planned for themselves to be a "prophet". ...

Listening to the few examples that Slesser casually raised, Shen Xingji sighed: "Your rules are a little silly, ah no, I mean simple."

Slessor: "???"

Is this the point? !Isn't the point about how powerful those people who take advantage of the loopholes in the law are!

"Is the God Anna you are talking about the creator of the law?" Shen Xingji gave a serious suggestion, "I think this God Anna needs to hire a lawyer, one may not be enough, it needs an excellent lawyer." team of lawyers."

Slessor: "..."
