Little Sam was in a very uneasy mood.
He didn't know why he told the story of killing the farmer.
Maybe it was because this matter was buried in his heart that he was very depressed and needed a channel to talk to relieve the pressure; or maybe the other party saved him and allowed him to see a glimmer of light in the darkness of despair, making him involuntarily get close to him?
Little Sam didn't know which one it was, maybe it was both.
When telling the story, little Sam didn't think too much, but after he finished telling the story, he became anxious again. He was afraid that the stain of his murder would become a thorn in the other side's eyes.
If the person is really annoyed by this thorn, with its legendary extraordinary ability, it may not only curse his nose to grow longer, but may also make him disappear from the world.
So, in a restless and anxious mood, little Sam spent the longest ten minutes in his life.
During these ten minutes, little Sam kept his head down, not daring to look directly at Mr. Pat for fear of seeing the displeasure in his eyes.
He was waiting silently, waiting for the other party to speak, waiting for Mr. Pat's evaluation of his behavior.
However, there was no waiting.
Ten minutes later, in the midst of suffering, little Sam secretly raised his head and glanced at Mr. Pat sitting opposite, trying to see if the other person was happy or angry, so as to judge his mood at this time.
But when he saw it, little Sam was stunned.
Mr. Pat's expression was calm, but his eyes flickered, as if he was thinking about something.
However, little Sam was sure that Mr. Pat was not thinking about his business, because he was staring at a strange image projected from the stone.
His attention was entirely on the empty image, and he naturally did not think about his own affairs.
Little Sam couldn't help but think of Mr. Pat's words before. His focus never stopped on killing people, but suddenly realized that it was because of the death of a farmer that the deep forest at night became so lively.
Does Mr. Pat really not care that he killed someone?
Little Sam didn't know where he got the courage. After hesitating for a moment, he directly asked the doubts in his heart: "Mr. Pat, I killed the farmer, do you think I am a bad person?"
Angel, who was immersed in the image in the recording stone, raised his eyes to look at little Sam, shook his head and said: "Good or bad is not determined by one thing, let alone one thing that is full of malice. .”
"Then I'm not a bad person?" Little Sam murmured to himself.
"At least in my opinion, you are not a bad boy." Angel raised the corners of his lips and narrowed his eyes: "Compared to the bad boys I have encountered before, your level is far from adequate."
Little Sam: "The bad boy that Mr. met? What bad things did he do?"
The shadow of Guina flashed through Angel's mind. She could kill a friend who showed kindness to her for a piece of bread; she could also command her companions to destroy an innocent family without caring.
Kuina was considered a bad kid by his standards.
However, Angel shook his head and did not tell Guina's story. Because although Kuina was a bad child, her badness was only caused by the cruel war environment. She just tried her best to live. From this point of view, she was actually right.
Angel doesn't care about good or bad, and he doesn't judge good and evil by the standards of this world. This is because as a wizard, he has transcended the constraints of the world, so he can make more rational judgments. But little Sam is still alive and will live in a secular society in the future. Therefore, Angel will not export this view to him, let alone use Guina's example as a demonstration.
In his short life, little Sam has been a noble and a slave. The ups and downs have allowed him to see too much of the world, so he has a strong ability to observe words and emotions. That is why he can analyze the farmer's thoughts from the details. To sacrifice to him.
When he saw that Mr. Pat was unwilling to speak, Little Sam decisively shut up.
It didn't matter to him whether he knew the example of the "bad boy" or not. The most important thing to him was that he learned that Mr. Pat didn't care that he killed the farmer.
This kind of tolerance makes little Sam very happy. Because if the story of killing the farmer reaches a small town, no matter how good he is, others will still think that he is sinful and wrong. It is precisely because he understands this environment that little Sam will run away.
Now that he met someone who understood him, little Sam's hopeless heart felt a little warmer.
Little Sam did not ask further questions, and Angel was happy to be quiet and continued to look at the image in the photo stone.
These are the precious photo stones he bought from the Huiyi site. These photo stones are precious images recorded by major wizarding organizations or magazines when they encounter major events. They are usually only included with collector's edition magazines. The collector's edition magazines are basically exclusive to the True Knowledge Wizard. Angel has read these magazines before, but has not come into contact with the magazine's photo stone.
It was rare to find these image stones on the Weiyi site. The seller also said that they were major events in history. Angel was naturally moved and spent a large sum of magic crystals to buy a box of image stones.
However, after watching about five or six of them, Angel discovered that the major events in these photo stones seemed different from what he had imagined.
He believed that major events were those that could affect the overall situation and leave a lasting mark on history.
However, the big event on the image stone——
A man wearing a gray wizard robe was hiding in the mud swamp. He quietly pointed to the depths of the woods in the distance and whispered: "According to the information we received, there is a trapped star wizard hiding in the alien world ahead. The astrological tower of space. Now, Mu Ying, known as the representative of the new star apprentices, nicknamed the 'Quiet Heroic Spirit', has led several prophecy apprentices from the Crown Star Church and has entered it. Now, let us look forward to what they will do. What to bring out...or maybe they will stay there forever."
After a while, there was a riot deep in the woods. A tall puppet with a star map on its mask ran past the swamp, chasing a group of apprentices with missing arms and legs.
After everyone left, the man in the swamp slowly emerged: "The Star Power Puppet, the most famous star power puppet of Sleepy Star Wizard, seems to have stayed in the Astrology Tower. It seems that he foresaw that someone would come to steal things from its Astrology Tower. It seems that Mu Ying will be disappointed this time."
As the words fell, the image in the void also ended.
After Angel read it, he felt completely bad. Is this a reporter from a magazine? Is this a big deal? Does this need to be recorded?
Isn't it just a relatively failed ruins adventure? And judging from the time, it is still a record of an adventure hundreds of years ago.
What baffles Angel the most is—Mu Ying, the drama queen of Xiju Academy who impressed him deeply in the abyss, is nicknamed "Quiet Heroic Spirit"? ! He thinks 'Noisy Parrot' is more suitable for Muying.
Although these photo stones were different from what he had imagined, and Angel looked at them with a frown, they were not without their good points.
It’s also fun to learn about the past of powerful wizards who are currently in the spotlight.
Moreover, there are also some photo stones that can be learned. For example, Angel had seen a photo of the "Holy Light Walker" refining a high-level potion in the wild.
Although the technique is unclear, Angel has benefited a lot from some details.
Now, Angel took out another image stone. It is said that this is also an alchemical record that secretly leaves images.
When the image stone was activated, an image appeared in front of Angel.
When Angel saw the contents of the image clearly, his pupils shrank and he closed them without hesitation.
"Mr. Pat, is the boat in the picture just now a gondola?" Little Sam, who was sitting opposite Angel, had been secretly watching the scene of the picture stone. He couldn't understand the previous pictures, but just now In that scene, although the main focus was on a young man with blond hair and blue eyes, he noticed that there was a dreamlike flying boat parked next to it, which was exactly the same as the gondola they were riding on.
Angel's mouth stiffened, and he thought to himself: He closed the door so quickly, and this little guy actually caught the shadow of the gondola.
Yes, the protagonist in the previous image was Angel. It was the scene when he was refining the rhythm of the ocean.
Angel knew that this image was widely circulated in Fan Continent because of Jiebo, but he didn't expect... that he would actually see this image stone at this time.
Fortunately, because of sprouting, he still maintains his red hair and golden eyes, otherwise the person that little Sam asked just now would not have been Gondola, but him.
Angel didn't want to explain more, but replied calmly and simply: "Yes."
"I thought there was only one such a beautiful flying boat in the world, but I didn't expect there was a second one." Little Sam's eyes flashed brightly: "Is this the world that sir lives in?"
Angel: "The world I live in and the world you live in are the same world."
Little Sam: "But I have never seen a flying boat before, and I don't know if the legend in the book is true. Even in the image I saw just now, those tall star power puppets, half human and half I’ve never heard of fish creatures either.”
Little Sam lowered his head in frustration: "My world seems to be different from Mr.'s world."
Angel: "The world is the same, but the vision is different."
Different vision? Little Sam seemed to understand.
"Then, can I achieve Sir's vision?" Little Sam's eyes were filled with hope.
Angel pondered for a moment: "It's probably not easy."
Angel's directness made little Sam's eyes flash with disappointment, and he lowered his head in deep thought.
Angel could hear little Sam's yearning for the extraordinary world, but Angel didn't intend to say more. Although he has not tested it, based on his current state, he can see that little Sam's spirituality is good, but his mental power value is definitely not up to standard.
Since he is not a gifted person, there is no need to give him too much hope.
Because he suddenly saw the picture of himself refining on the image stone, Angel had no intention of looking at the image stone again for the time being. Instead, look at the starry sky above your head and enjoy a moment of peace.
Time passes slowly.
Little Sam was a mortal and was even weaker than the original Duru, so Angel pulled Gondo slowly away. It wasn't until the early morning of the next day that they entered the hinterland of the Central Empire.
This is not far from Saint Syme City.
…
At the same time, on the Pamiji Plateau, Rhine arrived outside the ruins where Angel temporarily lived.
He gently knocked on the big tree at the door.
After a while, the clone of the tree spirit came out of the ruins.
"Angel has left?" Rhine asked.
The tree spirit yawned and leaned against the big tree: "Yes, after he came back from the Bad Wing Station, he met Dudolo and took Tobi overseas. However, I think it was very difficult for him to open the plane channel. If I’m unfamiliar, I’ll probably get sidetracked.”
"However, it doesn't matter if there is a fork in the road. Anyway, he has prepared a lot of casting materials, and it will be no problem to open a few more planes to cross the road."
Rhine: "He didn't let Dudolo follow him?"
The tree spirit shook his head: "Dodoro would like to think so, but it was only after Duodoro became famous on the Stargazing Day that many people were eyeing him. Before he could advance to the level of wizard or have the ability to protect himself, Angel decided to He stayed."
Rhine nodded: "That's good. Pay more attention to Dodolo. His strategic significance is extremely high. I met Maya before, and she told me that Dodolo may be stronger than her in predicting secret matters. .”
As an apprentice, Dudolo's prophecy ability has surpassed Maya, a veteran prophecy wizard, in some aspects. What this means, the tree spirit naturally understands.
After talking about Dodoro, Rhine asked about Regina's research progress.
At the mention of Regina, the tree spirit sighed deeply.
When Angel and Regina were handing over before, the tree spirit thought Regina seemed easy to talk to, but when he contacted her in person, he discovered that Regina was simply a replica of Lianna.
It's not that Regina and Lianna have similar personalities, but that Regina's skills capture Lianna's essence.
Regina knew that after Angel gave all the mushrooms to the tree spirit, she would come out to grind them with him almost every once in a while, just to get the mushrooms in advance.
This entanglement made the tree spirit seem to have returned to the time when Liana asked him to open up the inner space of the Eternal Tree.
Moreover, Regina did not come in person, but sent a mushroom clone. This made the tree spirit feel very distressed, and also subtly felt that it was not taken seriously.
Tree Spirit: "Except for asking for mushrooms every day, everything else is going well. It is said that Miying's cultivation progress is also going well."
Rhine patted the tree spirit and comforted him silently.
Immediately afterwards, Rhine asked if there were any other abnormalities in the ruins - mainly because he was worried about those nightmare lights and the sudden return of Crowley from the ruins.
After confirming that everything was normal, Rhine said goodbye to the tree spirit and flew towards the ruins of the Star Pool.
The tree spirit returned to the ruins and planned to continue reading the books left by Crowley.
However, just when the tree spirit returned to the study, he noticed that there seemed to be a faint flash of light on the knight's armor sitting beside the desk.
The tree spirit walked to the knight's armor in confusion and sensed the magic energy array engraved on it.
There is no sign of being activated.
"Is it an illusion?" The tree spirit hesitated for a moment, but decided to go in and take a look. He didn't believe that he would be wrong.
The tree spirit activated the short-distance teleportation array on the armor, and the next second, he came to the deep corridor. At the end of the corridor is Crowley's bedroom, filled with nightmare light.
The tree spirit walked back and forth in the corridor and found nothing unusual.
As for the bedroom...he couldn't go in without Angel.
"Maybe it's really an illusion?" The tree spirit shook his head, left the corridor, and returned to the study.
Not long after the tree spirit left, a voice came softly in the empty corridor: "He left..."
