Chapter 23 Open Server

For the past month or so, Zhong Ye has been running around and tired, and rarely gets real rest.

Even though Zhong Ye's current physical recovery ability is far better than before, the accumulation of exhaustion has almost crushed his body.

After relaxing, Zhong Ye fell asleep and didn't wake up from his lethargy until the sun went down.

But his head was still groggy, obviously he didn't get enough sleep.

Bearing the dizziness, Zhong Ye pushed the door and walked out of the guest room, as if the servant who had been waiting outside the door for a long time led him to the dining room.

In the dining room, he saw an old man sitting on the main seat, enjoying dinner slowly. Immediately afterwards, hallucinations appeared in front of his eyes, and psychedelic voices sounded in his ears...

Zhong Ye frowned, and the illusion presented in his mind shattered, and the apprentices and followers sitting at the long table came into view.

Victor raised his head and smiled at Zhong Ye, "Please sit down."

It was also this afternoon that he learned of Zhong Ye's method of capturing the white troll alive from the apprentice who dealt with the troll. That method was very difficult for fighters, and even his few who had mastered extraordinary power The followers even bluntly said that they couldn't do it, but Zhong Ye did it—this Eastern native didn't seem to have even broken through his own extraordinary barrier.

Moreover, that method is difficult for warriors, but it is much less difficult for mages. They can completely abandon foreign objects and directly cut off the nerve transmission in the troll's body.

As a mage who specializes in the school of life, Victor was in a good mood when he got an idea for a new technique.

The others also cast their gazes at Zhong Ye, with admiration and disbelief in their eyes.

Just as Zhong Ye sat down, he seemed to have auditory hallucinations again, but he ignored it.

The dinner was very sumptuous, with plenty of meat and all kinds of fruits and vegetables. Zhong Ye was not polite after a day of hunger.

His food intake was almost equal to several of Victor's extraordinary followers, which made people look sideways.

Although Zhong Ye had a large appetite and ate a lot of food, his table manners were perfect, and no one could find any mistakes. He even made the people who ate at the same table with him notice his mistakes and correct them.

In this way, the old mage appreciated Zhong Ye even more, even though he was not a mage.

The castle does not have meals every day. Most of the time, the cook cooks in the kitchen and delivers the food to everyone through the activated dining car. Today it was just the old mage's whim.

After dinner, the castle has been lit up, and the crystals are hung on the walls and ceiling, emitting a faint light, not dazzling, but just bright enough.

The old mage was in a good mood, and when he took Zhong Ye to the observatory, he pointed to the lamps and explained: "Many years ago, if we wanted to make such lamps, we needed genuine crystals, but now, we have been able to synthesize qualified crystals. The energy-focusing crystals make lights less expensive than they used to be."

Zhong Ye glanced over the crystal lamps, and suddenly asked: "So, do you have any idea of ​​popularizing 'lighting' among the people?"

Hearing this, Victor's face became a little weird, and he asked, "Why do you think so?"

Zhong Ye replied without hesitation: "In Dongtu, we have a lofty idea. If you are poor, you will be alone, and if you are rich, you will benefit the world. There are several interpretations of this sentence. One of them is to have the world in mind. When you enjoy yourself, you must Think about how to make people all over the world have the same quality of life, and finally reach the level where everyone is the same and the world is in harmony."

The old mage didn't stop, thinking while walking.

"...Unintelligible."

In the end, he came up with such an answer: "It's hard for me to imagine such a thing, even the purest paladins don't think about this kind of thing, they just cut off the evil in the world - after all, the worldly returns to the world, What belongs to the gods belongs to the gods, and in the secular world, there are probably not many people who would have such thoughts."

After a pause, he continued: "If ordinary people can live the same life as us, then what kind of nobles are we?"

Zhong Ye shook his head, "The times are always moving forward. Thousands of years ago, the delicacies enjoyed by the nobles might not be as good as the food enjoyed by the bourgeoisie today, and their material living standards will not be more fulfilling than they are now. By that time At that time, the world may already have relatively infinite energy, any resource is at your fingertips, and you can get unlimited enjoyment, so why care about the status of aristocrats?"

Even when he said that, Victor still couldn't understand.

Seeing his attitude, Zhong Ye didn't continue talking.

"...Although I can't understand it, I have respect for those who have such thoughts." The old mage concluded the topic, "When they make such a decision, they are already making an enemy of the world. , their position is not evil, but righteous to a degree that I can hardly understand—they are fighting against many evils in the world."

During the conversation, the old mage brought Zhong Ye to the door of the tallest building in the castle, but he didn't open the door. He raised his hand, and two breezes lifted the two of them up to the top of the tower.

The top floor of this tower is the observatory, hovering in the air, Victor waved away the top of the tower.

I saw the top of the tower slide away to the sides, revealing a platform.

There were few objects on the platform, only a table and a few chairs. The table was covered with a piece of cloth. The old mage floated down with Zhong Ye and landed in front of the table.

The thin index finger lightly taps the center of the cloth, and ripples follow, and the image of the starry sky is slowly projected in the air.

Zhong Ye held his breath, nervousness squeezed out the dizziness at this moment, and filled his mind.

"This is the starry sky of our world. Each star represents a world, but each star is extremely far away, and there is no possibility of intersecting with our world—we originally thought so."

The old mage's voice became ethereal and distant at this moment, making Zhong Ye feel like he was in the starry sky: "Until 29 years ago, that was the first clearly recorded 'World Approaching Event', maybe it wasn't the first time in the true sense , but we have observed this event for the first time."

He dragged the star map with his fingers, and a distinctive bright star came out from the edge and fell into Zhong Ye's eyes.

"26 years ago, the mage who observed this event chose to make the event public. Since then, this event has officially entered the eyes of our mages. Immediately afterwards, the appearance of the 'echo sign' further verified our conjecture—two The world is really getting closer, maybe in a few years, our world will meet that other world.

"One thing that is more fortunate is that there are many similarities between that world and our world, and we may be able to communicate and communicate."

Speaking of this, the old mage suddenly laughed, "You may know that people in that world call their world 'Earth'."

"...Yes, I know." Zhong Ye took a deep breath.

Victor waved his hand to turn off the star map, took out some powder from his pocket, and sprinkled it on himself and Zhong Ye.

"Relax and don't resist."

The old mage recited the mantra, and as he recited, Zhong Ye felt his body getting lighter and lighter, as if he was about to float into the sky.

Silently feeling the changes in his body, Zhong Ye saw the silver powder beside him floating slowly, so he looked up.

The spell ended here, and the silver light suddenly bloomed.

Two silver lights shot up into the sky, like two meteors falling into the sky.

Zhong Ye could clearly feel that he was being attracted by the sky and was moving away from the earth at an extremely fast speed, but he couldn't feel any gravity to hold him back. The mother earth watched the wanderer go away peacefully.

After an unknown amount of time, the silver light lingering around his body gradually dimmed. Zhong Ye came back to his senses just in time, and when he raised his eyes, he saw the sky filled with stars, and the boundless starlight enveloped him.

——But that was just his illusion!
Compared with the brilliance of distant and tiny stars, the darker darkness is the background color of the 'universe'.

"See it? That star."

The old mage raised his hand and pointed into the distance.

In addition to the sun, the moon and the earth behind them, there is a fourth star in the boundless universe that is far more dazzling than other 'stars'.

Zhong Ye remained silent, his eyes fixed on the star, if nothing else happened, it was his hometown.

Zhong Ye didn't speak, and the old mage didn't think about it, he just thought that he was reminiscing about the scene in his dream. After all, it was also a 'dream' that had accompanied him for more than ten years, and it might be longer than many people's lifetimes—— The time of dreams and reality is not always equal.

The old mage took out the paper and pen, and wrote slowly in this weightless place, while observing and calculating, and then recorded the observation results.

All of a sudden, the bright star 'breathed', and the light shrank and rose suddenly.

The old mage stopped taking notes, and fell into a daze together with Zhong Ye.

"...What is that?" For a long time, he asked himself in shock.

The approach of two worlds is a constant activity, and it is impossible to speed up or slow down suddenly, that is unnatural.

That being the case, what is he seeing now?
A completely new phenomenon—one that would disprove previous theories? !

Zhong Ye was also in shock, but his shock was completely different from that of the old mage.
