Home in another world

After leaving the village ruins, Lin Yue did not immediately join up with Wayne and the others, but searched for the necromancer's whereabouts without sleep.Relying on the faint dark breath, Lin Yue caught up with the target three days later.

Fortunately, during this period, the other party did not find a village where they could attack.Lin Yue followed from afar, and finally found an opportunity that night—the other party seemed to be planning to perform some kind of ritual in the depths of the jungle.

After calculating the attack range of the "Explosion" magic and casting an airtight net, Lin Yue stared at the opponent with the telescope that Uncle Todailun made last time, ready to wait for the opportunity to launch the magic scroll that he arranged—all There are always certain moments in important ceremonies that the other party cannot move, and Lin Yue is waiting for that moment.

Unexpectedly, someone entered the "net" by mistake.

In fact, while waiting for the "killing", his mood became more and more calm, so calm that he was a little scared himself.He broke free from that state when Leo and Zill appeared.

Then broke out in a cold sweat.

If you want to survive in this world, you must kill people... Even if it is not for survival, it will be because of the indelible "humanity" deep in the soul.

Lin Yue was suddenly very grateful for the sudden arrival of the intruder.They gave him time to take a hard look at this "hunt" instead of continuing to greet it with calm and numbness.

After seeing the appearance of the person, Lin Yue realized that he "knows" this Qier.

At that time, Zier was temporarily acting as a theological assistant, and happened to be assigned to the class of "Andrew" by the old priest, and Andrew called him "senior brother".Although the dull and withdrawn Andrew had only spoken a few words to Kiel, he had a lot of memories about Kiel.For example, Zier's strong memory, perfect light talent, confident and gentle smile...

Also an orphan who grew up receiving the relief of the temple, Andrew is like a shadow hiding in the corner, but Zill is a dazzling existence that gathers all the sunshine.And his humble origins were completely forgotten after he became a candidate for the priest of the Temple of Nature.

Lin Yue can catch the subtle jealousy in Andrew's memory.

But Lin Yue is not Andrew after all.When he was "Lin Yue", he had also pretended to be a "perfect and confident" person like Zier - so he understood how tiring it was.

After thinking about it, Lin Yue still walked out of the dark place: "Senior brother Zier, it's me." He simply explained to Zier and the two why he appeared here.

Hearing that Lin Yue had really used more than 40 advanced magic scrolls, Leo smacked his lips: "You are such a waste..."

Lin Yue rubbed his nose: "I can't help it, I'm afraid of death. And it was given by others..." Before the old wolf left, he asked someone to send a bunch of magic scrolls, and left behind the words "It's useless to keep the defective ones, Here you go."

What an awkward old man.

Lin Yue was a little distracted, but Zier sighed: "You have changed a lot, it seems that you have adapted well in the capital."

It's all changed, can it stay the same... Lin Yue changed the topic: "Is Brother Zier going to Starr City?"

"Yes, we are going to see Duke Hawke." Zill's expression became serious: "You have also seen that the necromancers are becoming more and more rampant recently. There are many strange dark forces appearing in various parts of the continent. People who summon dark creatures The conditions are getting lower and lower... It seems that something is watching us. If you can meet your magician friend who is proficient in magic circles, please ask him to go to the temple, we need his help."

Lin Yue vaguely agreed.He didn't know when he'd see Old Worf again, and...

Feeling a pain in his heart, Lin Yue casually answered the invitation to go to Zier, Starr City together—it just so happened that the contact stone indicated that Wayne and the others had already entered the city.

Starr City is the territory of Duke Hawke, who controls one-third of the army of the Elvis Empire.It is also called "the place closest to the stars" or "the place where the stars gather".

This strange city is shrouded in the darkness of the polar night for three months of the year.Of course, this is not its most peculiar place, and its owner is the most talked about topic in the empire.

One of the things that has been spread the longest is that the Duke of Hawke deeply loved His Majesty Ryan when he was a teenager. For this reason, he seized the patriarchal power when he was a teenager, and controlled the army to help Ryan ascend to the throne.

The result is obvious-His Majesty Ryan married one woman after another, and gave birth to one son after another.But Duke Hawke never returned to the capital.

The second widely circulated event is the death of the eldest son of the emperor.It was rumored that after Duke Hawke saw the eldest son of the emperor who was hailed as a genius, he actually transferred his original love to this prince who was somewhat similar to His Majesty Ryan.When His Majesty Ryan noticed this matter, he personally killed the eldest son of the emperor, and then took advantage of the death of the eldest son to remove many families that hindered him. His methods were still chilling.

With all these reasons, it is easy to understand the rumors that "a coup is brewing in the dark city of Starr".

Listening to all kinds of stories in the tavern, Lin Yue couldn't help but think of His Majesty Ryan who had met once.If you just look at the appearance, it is indeed unmatched by anyone, but that kind of ruthless and indifferent personality... I have to say, this Duke Hawke is really brave.

At this time, Lin Yue had parted ways with Zier, and went straight to Bell's Tavern, where Wayne and the others were located, relying on Liaison Stone's instructions.

As the first stop to welcome foreigners, the Bell Tavern near the city gate has the most discussions about various rumors in Starr City: there are rumors, there are rumors, there are rumors, and everyone talks happily, no one has a clue allow.

Just as he was about to refill his drink and continue to carry forward the spirit of gossip, Lin Yue saw the owner of the tavern leading the four of Wei En over.The owner of the tavern with a rosaceous nose and a beer belly looked unfriendly—it was aimed at Lin Yue: "You teacher is too irresponsible. Why did you take away the crystal cards of the students and let them act alone? If it wasn't for my guarantee, your students He was taken away by the guards long ago. The city of Starr has been strictly guarded recently."

Received the plaintive eyes of the four students, Lin Yue apologized embarrassingly: "I forgot to return the crystal card to them, and I caused you trouble."

"No trouble, the four children are very sensible. Especially little Mosen, almost no one dares to make trouble with him." After complimenting Wen En and the others, the owner of the tavern darkened again: "How do you treat these few people?" A sensible child is so careless?"

Lin Yue talked nonsense: "Actually, I went there desperately to defeat the evil forces. It's so inconvenient to take them with me."

Glancing at Wayne and the others who were stranded in the Bell Tavern because they couldn't take out the crystal card, the owner of the tavern snorted from his nostrils: "With your memory, what can you do?"

Seeing Yisha and Mo Sen covering their mouths and snickering, Lin Yue could only admit his failure, thanked the enthusiastic and kind tavern owner several times, and then went to the city to find a hotel to stay.

In order to make up for the hardships his students had suffered in the past few days, Lin Yue generously gave them a vacation, and provided all the expenses for eating, drinking and playing out of his own pocket.

The little guys didn't run away cheering, instead they spontaneously surrounded Lin Yue.It was Isa who spoke first: "Teacher, we have all heard that some nobles were afraid of taking responsibility and deliberately covered up the fact that some civilians were killed..." At this point, Isha looked at Lin Yue carefully.

"It's okay, everything has been checked." Lin Yue's expression was calm, but Yisha's words reminded him of the scene of "backtracking", and a wave of nausea and fatigue immediately hit him.

In order to track down that damn necromancer, he has not closed his eyes for many days.

Lin Yueqiang braced himself to respond to the students' questions and concerns, and did not fall asleep until they left with peace of mind.

Originally, in such a state of extreme fatigue, he usually would not dream anymore, but while he was half asleep and half awake, Lin Yue suddenly fell into a black mist.

There is a familiar figure faintly in the black mist... It's like Owen in the "subconscious" state he saw for the first time.

This time, Lin Yue didn't reach out to hold the other party.

However, there was a warm breath approaching in the darkness, and then the familiar voice rang in his ears: "I... miss you, I miss you very much."

The careful kiss fell on the ear, not the instinctive request, nor the funny or new ridiculous behavior, but an extremely cherished and extremely careful touch.The lightness of the force was like fear of disturbing this dream.

"...I miss you so much..." After tossing and turning, I could only say one sentence.

It is indeed a bit like that stubborn fat man...

"Your cheating behavior must be deeply despised." After confirming the other party's identity, Lin Yue said viciously: "I will also appear in several personalities some other day, one beats you, the other beats you hard, and the last one expresses I didn't do anything."

"I'll beat you up when...it becomes very, very good." The distant voice carried a little bit of grievance and unconcealable sadness: "...it will definitely get better, don't hate this place... you I can't go to that place..."

Lin Yue was startled.He has never told anyone about the secret of changing his body and soul.He felt his mouth dry: "Do you know what you're talking about?"

"I'm not very clear...but I can feel that there is a place in Andrew's heart that he wants to go very much. That place feels very comfortable...but I can't go."

"You feel..." Lin Yue recalled what Owen said, and seemed to have caught a clue: "What kind of 'loyalty' is at work?"

"'Loyalty'?" Owen's voice was a little dazed, and he opened his mouth after a while: "'Loyalty' is the most important equal contract...accompanying my family for life...ah, there is no time..."

The black mist dissipated instantly.

The room was silent.

Lin Yue opened his eyes.

The author has something to say:

Actually one day I had a very instructive dream.

The protagonist of the dream is a good-for-nothing (male) who has the ability to fly in the air. He accidentally discovered that there are two huge spherical apertures on the roof of a building, each with a radiant egg inside.

The lifeless protagonist flew over while pondering: Why did no one find such a weird thing?Why didn't the XX organization come out to grab it?Why is there no OO laboratory to closely monitor? ...strange, so strange...

So he flew closer and closer...

Then he was chased and killed by a vicious old warden.

This dream tells us: the trash must never have supernatural powers, and not everyone can be the protagonist.
