Dragon and knight Ji gl

Leff was slightly startled, and retracted his thoughts. He bent down, picked up the bone staff, and put it back in place.

Natia Vida showed some other magical powers to Shuo Quelin, showing the "sacred relics of the elves"...the latter was finally convinced that they had powers. Yukama brought back, But also to ensure that it is not contaminated.

Lev has seen Natia Vida's persuasive "ability" before. Compared with usual, it seems that it took an extraordinarily long time to persuade Suo Quilin this time.

After asking some clues from Suo Kuilin, the two left.

"... What I saw just now? Those things... Are those things... Lord Deborah said?... After the clergymen reach high positions, do they often face 'out of control'?" Leif said.

To try to ask a dragon masquerading as a conjurer a question that only a real conjurer could answer is like asking a carnivore what it means to eat grass. .But along the way, Natia Vida has been her private "instructor" for so long. For most of the questions about the temple, Natia Vida can always give quite clear and clear answers. This made Leif subconsciously believe that Natia Vida could also answer this question.

Even if Natia Vida couldn't answer, Leif couldn't hold back anymore.She had a premonition that she would encounter danger if she continued to think about it, so she forcibly stopped her thoughts in one place, stopped extending them, and then sought advice from Natia Vida.

"My lord Deborah said..."People who stand too high and far away" will regard an ordinary person as "a symbol", "a number without flesh and blood", "a bargaining chip that can be manipulated at will"... "

Lev said, "I originally thought...the so-called 'standing too high and too far' was just a rhetoric...Master Deborah was just reminding me not to lose the authority of the Templars "Compassion" for ordinary people, abusing my "power" to hurt them...but?, it's not just?a rhetorical..."

Natia Vida led Leif, avoiding a stone on the ice, and asked: "What did you think??"

"It's hard to describe... There are two completely opposite thoughts." Leif said, "One thought is... I can't get my spirit up, it's about Yukama's safety, about the people I saved last night, I'm going to see you tonight? Ariez... and those who believe in dragons? Yes, I don't care?...Because I don't quite understand why I do this...and the other... ...another thought... I..."

Natia Vida said: "Another thought, Miss Knight doesn't want to admit it."

"Yes." Leff took a deep breath, and the hand that was not held by Natia Vida stretched back and pinched the handle of the knife, using this habitual movement to give himself more courage , "The first kind of thought can only lead to my behavior of 'interrupting this assessment'... The second kind of thought can only lead to the behavior of 'destroying'...

"To put it simply, I want to chop people around with a machete, then splash fish oil everywhere, set a fire to burn everything up, and then go to the next mission site and repeat this kind of behavior——Did I tell Lord Natia Vida? , omitting so many details that it's hard for me to tell... what I'm omitting?, is? all the? all the cruel? things you can imagine...

"And I don't feel guilty about it, I don't feel like I should, I don't feel like I shouldn't. I just don't care about them. Those people seem to have really become a A symbol, a shape... I feel that it is meaningless to play with them, because it is meaningless, so I want to try, yes? Can I exert some influence."

Natia Vida said: "You think? Everything in the remaining scrolls is? Fake?, so you can dispose of it at will. The reason why you didn't cause damage is just? The reason for the disposal. Not only that, but at that moment, you felt that your attitude towards the characters in the remaining scrolls would also continue in the 'real world'."

"That's true... Master Natia Vida seems to live in my... mind." Leif's face turned pale, "I don't want to admit it, but I really do... think so... this is... out of control '?

"This hyperinflated? high?feeling...it has something to do with the?blue-ray's?...but the?blue-ray can't?magnify something that?isn't there...maybe it's just?me ? There are? Evil thoughts."

Natia Vida said: "This is? 'Eternity'."

"'Eternity'? But no matter how you look at it, it's more like 'out of control'." Leff did think of "a moment of eternity", but always thought that "eternity" was a positive... Power doesn't make for a bad experience.

"The gap between 'eternal' and 'out of control' is just within a millimeter." Natia Vida said, "The reason why you don't care is precisely because at that moment, you experienced a powerful In the field formed by that power, nothing in the past has disappeared, and everything in the future has already been written... people who have died, things that have disappeared There is still... What is now? Everything is already decayed...

"With this power, you can reach any intersection point of time and space, restore the state of all people and things, or check the end of all people and things... If you change it to this description , is it closer to 'eternity'?"

Leif took a deep breath and said, "Do I have this kind of power?"

Natia Vida glanced at Lev, shook her head helplessly, and said, "Miss Knight never seems to think that her "ability" has a "limit"—of course you don't have such power. Even I, even the elves of the Holy Land, only glanced at a corner of this power.

"Because of the existence of this kind of power, it is possible to prophesy, so the elves of the Holy Land can completely preserve the scene 3000 years ago."

Leif nodded with a straight face, like a student obediently obedient to the training, said: "The lifespan of the Templars can be extended, is it because they can make the 'future'? Is? Yourself in the 'past'; and the reason why you can teleport quickly is also? Because you can make 'here' equal to 'there' to a certain extent—Master Natia Vida, is that so? ?"

Natia Vida nodded, and said: "It can be explained in this way, but 'eternity' actually cannot be described in words.

"After witnessing 'eternity', it is normal for you to have the aforementioned reaction. You have not given up on the mission, and you have not made any destructive actions until now, which means that you have not 'lost control'."

Leif was a little nervous at first, but after listening to Natia Vida's gentle explanation, she gradually became less worried about her own situation.After thinking for a while, he asked again: "... all the knights who have passed the assessment will go through the same? heart? path?"

"No..." Natia Vida's mouth slightly raised, "Some people will fall into deep thought at a certain moment; some people don't have so many complicated? Thoughts, just? Defeat? There is no abnormality in the process, even if it is passed. The latter did not think about "eternity", and "eternity" is already present. I originally thought that Miss Knight would be the latter type of person, but I didn't expect Miss Knight is actually the former type of person."

If not? Knowing from Deborah that Natia Vida is the first time to be an examiner, I am afraid that Leif really? Think that the latter is an examiner? He has quite a lot of experience and has met many students.

"Master Natia Vida seems to be implying that I seem to be a simple-minded person?" Leif said.

"It's simple, Miss Knight looks very simple." Natia Vida raised her hand with a smile and touched Leif's head, "In fact, a simple mind may not be regarded as a knight. ? A shortcoming."

Leff originally had some doubts, but for various reasons, he still didn't ask.

As soon as I got back to the igloo, I felt as if I had experienced a big battle? I slumped on the animal skin mat and closed my eyes.

In a trance, she saw herself sitting in front of the screen, using the keyboard and mouse to kill the virtual character on the screen... Then she suddenly saw "myself" from a long distance, and was captured by an infinite The shape of the force affects the control...

Natia Vida put Lev's head on her lap, and gently stroked her hair.

Leif opened her eyes half-opened, looked up, and gradually lost her mind.Hugging Natia Vida's waist, she fell into a deep sleep.

--

Natia Vida acted like she wasn't worried, but she was actually quite worried about the latter's state in order not to increase Leif's burden.

Cavaliers are annoyingly dull at certain points, but? are extraordinarily sharp at certain points.

Natia Vida, on the other hand, really wants Lev to be dull and sharp? The fields can be reversed, or she can take a step back, and Lev can remain dull in all situations...at least? She's always? Worried.

Some characteristics of Leif's body are quite suitable for the temple's needs.This feature makes it easy for the knight girl to capture the "eternal" inspiration that is extremely difficult for ordinary people, and even difficult for many priests to experience in their entire lives. Maybe it is through sleep, maybe Just the usual "eureka moment".It's a unique talent, but it's also a danger.

Natia Vida stood beside Leif, watching the latter's sleeping face.Prepare to intervene forcibly if Leff dreams of something that shouldn't be dreamed.

Leif slept fairly peacefully most of the time, occasionally frowning a few times, rubbing her nose, and turning over.

As the sky was getting dark, the knight girl first stretched her waist, then finally opened her eyes, yawned, and smiled in a daze.

This smile is really contagious. Natia Vida raised the corners of her mouth, and after Leif's confusion passed, she asked, "Miss Knight, how do you feel?"

"Master Natia Vida seems very worried? I..." The knight girl sat up, habitually picked up the hairband beside her, quickly combed her hair with her fingers, and tied it up, "I'm now ?Being in good shape, I don’t know why I was so worried before I fell asleep? Worried…”

"How to say?" Natia Vida asked.

"Some thoughts? Give me a headache." Leff got up, picked up the machete leaning against the wall, and said briskly, "But looking at it from another angle, I just had a headache for a while. ...I came into contact with that thing that only the Templars would have, called 'a moment of eternity'... I haven't passed the examination yet, and the rewards are coming in advance."

"It's like I got the fief in advance before I became a Templar; I got the bride price and the black egg before I got married to Natiaveda..." Leif spoke quickly for a while, and then said Realizing that he had said something extraordinary, he hurriedly shut his mouth and looked at Natia Vida, seeing that the latter listened with his expression unchanged, and did not take the opportunity to change the topic to "marriage" as before. She felt both relieved and a little weird.

"In short, being able to enjoy the harvest in advance, anyone will think it is a good thing to be happy about. If you leave the details aside: I just have a headache for a while, and I can only get it after I become a Templar Knight." The effect of long life and life extension is really worth it.

"If a temporary headache is exchanged for a period of life extension, I believe normal people would be willing to have headaches every now and then. Of course I am a normal person, and I also have a normal person's idea."

"Interesting? Saying?" Natia Vida smiled lightly.

In the records of the center of the temple, there are many records of exceptionally gifted clerics who, after witnessing "eternity", either?

Natia Vida never imagined that Leif could only use "eternity" as a "tool" to prolong life.Anyone who believes in the temple will probably not have such a "blasphemy" view.

But in retrospect, Leif was able to be so stubborn and sincerely believe that the rain of gems she gave was just "the spoils of defeating the dragon", so the knight lady interpreted "eternity" as a "tool" This idea is not without trace.

"A moment lasts forever," Leif muttered.

With a new ability, it is natural to try it out, but "a moment of eternity" does not have a real feeling, but an almost epiphany, an understanding of everything in the world. She recalled it again, but she couldn't figure it out for a while What can she do with "eternity".

She seems to have just bought a new toy that she doesn't know how to operate. She is both excited and confused.Habitually took the machete and walked around the hut several times.

—she thinks about eternity, proving that she has some understanding of the underlying mysteries that make up this fantastical, supernatural world.If she didn't have the slightest clue about concepts like "gods" and "magic power?" and "immortality?" it wouldn't bother her at all.

The so-called "eternity", "God", "curse", "teleportation", "prophecy" and so on are concepts under the concept of this fantasy world.But just now, her thoughts in her sleep suddenly became clear, and she realized that the concept of these fantastic and different worlds, just like "time travel", can actually be explained by physics.

Although she couldn't explain it herself, just knowing "can be explained" itself was enough to make her no longer confused.

Words such as four-dimensional space-time, quantum entanglement, wormhole, etc., she doesn't even fully understand the meaning, just? Knowing that there are these words? That's all, but it doesn't prevent her from quickly accepting the idea of ​​her soul transmigrating into a different world 17 years ago ?Little baby? This thing.Since she was able to accept time-traveling 17 years ago, she can naturally accept the experience just now.

Leif is thinking about how to try out the new ability?.

The room is too narrow, and it only takes a few steps to go around in a circle. After circling the room for a while, Leif pushed the door and went out.

Then he thought of something, stopped suddenly, and gave up his plan to go out.

Putting down the knife, he turned around and pushed Natia Vida down on the animal skin mat.

"Miss Knight..." Natia Vida didn't resist, and let Leif lie flat on her back, "Do you know that your current? appearance is a bit abnormal?"

"I'm pretty good. My current state is the best I've seen in the past year. The new ability can only be tested in battle, so I don't have any thoughts other than completing the task—Nati Yavida doesn't want to think about anything else." Lev stretched out his hands to cover Natiavida's eyes, "If you feel uncomfortable or have random thoughts? Then sleep more for a while?"

Natia Vida's eyelashes fluttered in Leif's palm, and she called out dumbfoundedly: "Miss Knight..."

"Rest is?very important?." Leif said seriously, "sleep has restored me to my state--Master Natia Vida should also take a good rest."

--

After night fell, after a while? There was a knock on the door outside the hut.

Natia Vida lay with her eyes open, raised one hand, and put the back of her hand on her forehead; the other hand was placed on Lev's shoulder.

Driven by a mysterious motive and trying to lull her to sleep, the knight girl was taking a nap on Natia Vida's stomach at the moment, and soon woke up when she heard the knock on the door.

Outside the door is the black-haired and green-eyed Aris, who made an appointment with Leif last night to go to the place where Yukama disappeared.

Natia Vida followed Leif out of the hut.

Seeing Natia Vida, Ariez was quite terrified, and asked Laifu why there was a third person in a language full of clapping sounds, as if preparing to run away at any time.

Leif held up a torch and explained to Ariece that Natia Vida was a companion, and would help her rescue Yukama, and would not reveal the news to attract the rest of the Misa tribe.

Ariez was the only person who saw Yukama disappear with her own eyes, and she was the only one who was there when Yukama disappeared.According to the tradition of the Misa tribe, if a female slave fails to protect her master and expose her to danger, she needs to be severely punished or even deprived of her life.

She returned to the Misab tribe with the news of Yukama, but after the patriarch heard that Yukama was kidnapped by the worshipers of the dragon, he ordered that no one should look for Yukama, and even ordered her to be executed— —Because she was once a?worshiper of the evil dragon, and had seen the?worshiper of the evil dragon when Yukama disappeared.

Ariez had to escape and decided to find a way by herself? Rescue Yukama.But for some reason, the patriarch didn't order her to be hunted down.The few Misa tribesmen she met just teased and bullied her like an ordinary, unowned slave girl, but they didn't get the order to kill her... Even so, after returning from Yukama Before that, Ariez still didn't really want to meet the people of the Misa tribe.

Natia Vida chatted with Alyce for a few words, and quickly gained the latter's trust.

Because he is familiar with the usual behavior of the magic dragon, Leif is a little worried that Natia Vida will scare this poor, disturbed? Gentle and thoughtful, he brought some pieces of raw meat wrapped in leather and a new pair of boots to Alyise.

Natia Vida looked at Ariez with gentle and compassionate eyes, and patiently listened to the latter's "worried" nagging.

Leff couldn't help but began to wonder if the impression Natia Vida had given her before wasn't the essence of the magic dragon?

For example, the dragon used to be stingy, but it may actually be generous; it used to be naive, but it might actually be mature; it used to be shameless, but it might actually be quite reserved; it used to be quite clingy People, in fact, are not clingy at all...

Natia Vida communicated with the natives, persuaded the patriarch, looked for clues, etc... She thought that this was because Natia Vida was biased towards her, so she was providing help.Looking at it now, maybe it's her preconceived idea.Perhaps Natia Vida is just? doing what a responsible? and principled? examiner should do?

Leff thought about it, and then took another look at the reserved, elegant, gentle, and mature examiner, confirming her guess.

Soon to the place where Yukama disappeared.

Near the coastline, a simple? Canoe was tied, and some broken? Fishing gear was scattered on the ground.

Natia Vida picked up something from time to time, closed her eyes and stood still for a while, and then asked some questions to Aris, or confirmed some details—such as what clothes Yukama wore on the day she disappeared , What have you eaten, what is the wind direction and so on.

Leif tried several times, but did not find a chance to help.Natia Vida wants to use divination to determine Yukama's whereabouts, so she needs more information about Yukama's disappearance, but this information does not inspire Leif at all.

According to the information provided by Patriarch Suokulin and some other natives, Natia Vida has already narrowed down the range of Yukama's possible location.However, it is obvious that Yukama's personal slave girl provided more information, which further narrowed the range.

Leff thought that although he didn't go directly to find the clues, at least he found an important clue provider, which could be considered as a help in determining Yukama's location, so he felt at ease. On the side, holding a torch to illuminate Natia Vida.

Natia Vida's? Investigation didn't last long.

Ariez seemed to want to add something.

"No need, I have already determined the location of Yukama and those dragon believers." Natia Vida half closed her eyes, as if seeing a picture, and then described the content of the picture to them, "Yukama is in good health now, she has not suffered any injuries, and has not been polluted by the evil dragon... She is still a devout elf believer. In order to prevent the evil dragon believer's conspiracy from succeeding, she has fasted for two days , a little weak at this time, but still in spirit..."

Hearing that Yukama was well, Ariez's green eyes lit up. Hearing that Yukama had fasted for two days, she looked very worried again.

"Let's take you back first." Leff, who had been idle for a while, finally found an opportunity that came in handy, and quickly comforted him, "Don't worry too much, I will set off tomorrow to rescue Yukama. Back?..."

Suddenly there was a strong wind, and the flame of the torch was blown in the direction of Ariez, and the flame was almost extinguished.

After the torch was lit again, Leif suddenly found that Natia Vida who was standing beside Ariez had disappeared.

Ariez covered her mouth in astonishment, looked behind Leif, and stammered, "Yu...Yukama..."
