K-type Mage

What appeared in front of the youth were three roads that forked.

The left intersection full of flames and emitting black poisonous gas, the flat middle intersection full of birds and flowers, and the right intersection full of weeds and dense rocks.

【Jack must choose a path to achieve his goal.Having trekked across mountains and rivers to come here, he did not hesitate to choose a path full of dangers. 】

【Bone-scorching flames burned the soul, and the dirty poisonous gas penetrated everywhere. Enduring the pain that seemed to be imposed on him by dozens of tortures, Jack saw the most unforgettable nightmare in his life in a trance—】

[The wanderer who left his hometown was exhausted and returned, but what he saw was a bottomless abyss; visitors from other lands with ferocious wings hovered here, their faces were blurred, and their voices were hoarse as if their fingertips were across iron, announcing that this place was no longer where he belongs. 】

【"At this moment, I am the rule, and the only thing that can force me to back down is a creature that has become a legend."】

【"Leave, human. I'm not interested in taking your life."】

The mechanical voice narrated the background, and the young man made a choice according to the narration, and walked on the road that was full of danger at first sight.

— but did not go through the same "test".

Passing through the maze of flames and poisonous gas, the young man saw a lush green meadow and lush woods, as well as a swift black shadow passing over the branches.

"Hi, hello!" The black shadow rushed to the young man who came suddenly, "Please tell me your name!"

【Facing the lively bird, even Jack, who was depressed and heavy, couldn't help but smiled and said his name. 】

"Jack, Jack, why did you come to find the dragon?"

"For my homeland. The last dragon in the world is the "hero" I'm looking for. The monsters of foreign lands sneer at life and my love for my homeland. "The young man called "Jack" said with a blank expression as if he was about to cut his heart open, but his tone of voice made this scene extraordinarily weird and funny.

The pure white bird with pitch-black tail feathers didn't notice it. It had a childish voice that couldn't tell the gender, and said innocently, "I haven't seen a dragon for a long time. If it was you, he would probably think about it." Come out to see the sun?"

It fluttered its wings and flew beside the young man non-stop, the sound of the flapping wings was full of rhythm.

"Birds, birds—" "Jack" read the lines in a voice without any ups and downs, "Why do you say that?"

"Three roads, you chose the one that the dragon once chose." The bird replied happily, "Visions full of poisonous gas and fire were real a long time ago; you understand that "no pursuit is free", giant The dragon will be happy about it. ’ it said, ‘Let me walk with you next, Jack.It's been a long time since I've seen a dragon. "

It said it a second time.

"With such a beautiful bird as your companion, I will look forward to the scenery on the road with great joy." [Jack] said, "If you are hungry and thirsty, I will share food and water with you; I will provide you with a place to sleep; if it is your wish, I will give it to you."

"Jack, your heart is full of kindness and trust. What can I do for you?" asked the bird. "I'm just a bird, and I can do nothing but fly."

"I don't want anything, dear bird," said [Jack]. "It's enough for you to be with me. Loneliness is a poisonous vine that drags people into the abyss. Walking alone is my unbearable sorrow. As long as you I am happy with it.”

"Well, dear Jack, your heart is pure and I would like to be your best friend."

One person and one bird set foot on the road to where the dragon is.

Chaoying and the vigilantes, who saw a series of pictures in the real world, looked so serious that they were facing an enemy.

"This is [Tatar Fairy Tale]?" Steve broke the silence, looking at the young man and the bird on the projected screen with some confusion, "It's like an adventure story."

"There must be hidden information in it." Natasha made a judgment, "There is a connection between the demons, dragons and birds." She said, "But there is one thing I want to confirm with you, about Jie Mori's lines..."

Both Bruce and Tony were silent, and even Doctor Strange, who was called over by the fatal serial call, raised his eyebrows a little subtly.

Clint grabbed a handful of popcorn, and the scene of a group of people surrounding the projection as if watching a movie made him a little loose, so he glanced at them blankly, and said, "I can understand, didn't you say that Yuan has passed the level before? It's quite normal to have traces of previous generations of players."

He smacked his lips and gave an evaluation: "As a game, it is very flexible. If it is officially released, it will be well received."

"Surprised you have a sense of business, Fat Joe," Tony said, "But the focus is wrong."

Bruce ignored his evaluation and said, "It can be confirmed that something happened to the source." He looked at Doctor Strange, "I think you should be able to give an explanation, Doctor."

Strange, who was stared at by several pairs of eyes, wandered for a moment, and said, "I can't explain it, but there is one thing you should know—that guess is correct."

Someone quickly showed a look of surprise, and someone took a while to react, and almost dropped the snack bucket in his hand to the ground.

"Regarding [Yuen's] identity, I have read many ancient books afterwards." The young supreme mage continued, "Don't look at me like this, Batman, even Constantine has ancient books that he doesn't know about, and my authority is very limited. big."

"...You have a guess."

"Yes...guess." He smiled bitterly and wiped his face, "Even the evil god of the Cthulhu system can't figure out why Yuan would be connected with such an existence."

He has a little sympathy for the other party, but more of admiration.

"Until the conjecture is confirmed, I can't tell everyone."

***

Jason Todd, swears he gets goosebumps when he says those lines.

[Tatar's Fairy Tale] Of course he knew the background, but he really didn't expect such a peaceful and innocent development full of fantasy at the beginning-except for the "Jack's hometown" that was dragged into the abyss by the devil.

He looked at the flying bird flying in front of any plant from time to time, and found that under the sunlight in the blue sky, its tail feathers were colorful black, its wings and back were colorful white, shining extremely dazzling, Like the light of a jewel.

The voice of the narration has disappeared, and even the translucent light screen that prompts the lines has become more and more transparent, and there is no sense of existence blocking the eyes.

Now is the time to move freely and advance the story.

"What should I call you?" Jason, who played [Jack], asked aloud.

"I'm the Thorn Bird, Jack." The bird answered him, a little puzzled, "Don't you know that?"

……Do not.

Jason frowned slightly, recalling the previous lines, he was sure that [Jack] had not talked with the Thorn Bird on this topic, and there was no information to prove it.

"The path I chose was the one chosen by the dragon." He changed the subject to avoid revealing more flaws—even if it was just a "game", there was no guarantee that the Thorn Bird was really [Jack's] friend. "Where do the other two roads lead?"

"Of course it's a different future! But I've been staying here, and I don't know the details." Thorn Bird said, "One is a smooth road that doesn't need to go through suffering and all troubles, and the other is that there are occasional ups and downs but the road is smooth." A smooth road that is still walkable—better than the road you choose."

"This is the path chosen by the dragon." Jason reminded it.

"Yes, the dragon," the Thorn Bird repeated. "I must say that the dragon is really a bit silly, but I won't talk about him because he has been very sad."

"Sad?" Jason asked. They were stepping on exposed rocks and crossing the rushing river at the moment. Water splashed in all directions, reflecting colorful halos under the sunlight.

"He's the last dragon. Shouldn't you be sad? Surely you understand, Jack."

I understand shit, let the real Jack answer this question.Jason thought, he was a little embarrassed, after all, his experience and feelings had little resonance on this matter, and it was impossible to confuse them.

The Thorn Bird didn't care about his silence, and said something sad in a childlike voice: "The last time I saw the dragon, he was dying. Sunshine and life, he liked these very much, but he stayed in the nest and refused Come out. Because he's the only one left."

Jason couldn't hold back and asked, "Aren't you friends?"

The thorn bird flew high, but it didn't answer immediately, the sun was gentle, and the breeze with splashes was warm.

"No," it said, sounding downcast, "I left him."
