It's shameful to say that such a big mess was left to be solved by the magicians of the Time and Space Tower. Although the result was much better than Baron expected, the battle still affected a large area of buildings in Balinoa.
As for archeology, the most regrettable thing is the final hall that was separated from the temple and completely shattered on top of the tower. As the core area of the temple, the remaining civilization information there must be far more valuable than other areas.
Fortunately, the temple itself was not affected too much under the protection of the maze layer, and the information left by Kloster was also well preserved. As long as the two of them recover the magic wedge and use this situation Informing the top management of the Space-Time Tower will complete the maze strategy.
The magic wedge and the matters on the other side of the Time and Space Tower were all left to Baron to solve, and Artolis came to the shelter again after fulfilling her promise and eating and drinking.
"Little guys, do you know that that big octopus is as big as ten shelters and has hundreds of tentacles? It's so ferocious!"
"Is it really that scary?"
"I really want to see it with my own eyes."
"Can you defeat such a big monster? Sister Artoris is indeed so powerful."
"Hehehe~ I'm not lying to you." Seeing the excitement on the children's faces after hearing the experience she shared, Artolis raised the corners of her mouth slightly with pride.
So he took out one of the tentacles of the Ho Luo monster contained in the bracelet and threw it directly in the yard of the shelter.
"Hey, this is one of the tentacles. Because there are too many to carry, I can only..."
"Wow, it's actually true!"
"This tentacle is much taller than me!"
"It seems like it's still moving."
Seeing that the little guys who interrupted her words were not surprised but happy, Artolis knew that her thoughts had been conveyed.
"I knew you would be here." At this time, a male voice came from the door, attracting everyone's attention.
Hearing the familiar voice, Artolis turned around and saw the familiar figure from the past. She opened her legs and stepped into the cheerful atmosphere step by step.
"Ba...Adlie..."
Artoris quickly stopped her slip of the tongue, her eyes intertwined with the other person's, and saw Baron tilting his head and showing an easy-going smile after meeting her gaze.
"Is he Adele?"
"It's exactly as Artoris described. It's very powerful at first glance."
"Really tall and elegant!"
This is the first time the children have met Baron. At least in the stories Artoris told before, the children have a very good opinion of him - no, it should even be said to be unusually high.
And it is undeniable that the other party also has such an upright appearance, which adds another dimension to the image of the big brother named "Adlie" in their hearts.
Artolis saw that Baron leaned down and smiled and rubbed the little head of the girl who was approaching him.
Unexpectedly, the little girl did not show resistance. Instead, she raised her two little hands high, took Barong's hand and placed it in a more comfortable position for stroking.
"As expected, the adults' hands are different. I don't know if my father's hands are as big as Adele's."
Listening to the girl's words, Barong's eyes flashed with astonishment for a moment, but he soon understood the truth from the micro-expression of enjoyment on the girl's face.
His usually indifferent eyes softened at this moment.
"Her name is Shirley. It can be seen that she likes you very much." It was obviously the first time I saw Barong showing such a gentle expression, but for some reason, that kind of emotional expression appeared on Barong and did not bring attention to Atoli. The slightest sense of dissonance.
She just felt that this moment was really rare for her. If possible, Artolis really wanted to keep this moment forever. But she also understood that Barong's arrival could not just accompany her to spend time in this shelter.
"Is Adele going to take Atoris on a new adventure, which means it's time to say goodbye again?"
As if they were aware of Barong's intention, a touch of sadness appeared on the faces of the children who looked back and forth from the two of them.
"Yes, and after setting off this time, there is no telling when we will come back." Artolis said, biting her trembling lips, and although she couldn't bear it, she still told them the truth.
"Are you going to Tianyu Xialang?"
Artoris turned her head when she heard the voice, and saw the guardian lady walking out of the house talking, looking at the two of them with a sad look on her face.
"Yes, the reason why we came to Xiluofans is precisely because of the existence of Tianyu Xia Corridor. And now that we have obtained permission from the Time and Space Tower, there is no reason to stay here too long." Looking at the guardian lady, Looking at him, Barong stood up and explained slowly.
"Sister Hill~Sister Hill~"
Hill Flandre was the name of the guardian girl. Artoris winked at Hill excitedly when she heard that the children were relieved of their worries.
Artoris didn't know what the plans of these little guys were, but it seemed that their original plan was to signal each other with their eyes, so as not to let her notice. But he is a child after all, and his acting skills are quite realistic.
Even Artolis could see the situation at a glance, let alone Barong, so the two of them looked at each other a little funny, and then cooperated to pretend not to know, and let the situation unfold towards the children. direction has continued to develop.
"Huh~" Seeing the two people pretending to be deaf and mute to protect the children's innocence, Hill also smiled. Then he followed the children's instructions, took out a delicate wooden box from the house, and then gave it to In the hands of Atoris.
"This is?"
"The children know that there will be a day when you are separated, but they didn't expect it to come so soon. However, before that, they used the money they saved from a week's work to buy you such a gift. I hope you can accept it. Next, we can use this to recall the time we met during future adventures.”
"Even if I'm just a passer-by in their lives?" The hand that took the gift box trembled a little. Although Artolis knew that this was the children's expression of their feelings for her, she didn't feel that she had appeared in these short two years. How much weight can a month hold in their hearts.
It's not like getting along with everyone in the Kelid Knights day and night, and sharing life and death. For Artoris, her existence is at best a passer-by on the long road of the children's lives, and she is not qualified to receive such a blessing.
"Do you still remember your dream when you were a child?" Hill suddenly said with prayer, looking into Artolis's eyes.
"dream……"
The other party's words made Artoris reveal confusion in her eyes, causing her soul to tremble from the inside out.
"--I"
"I want to be a knight who protects everyone, and I want to be as powerful as Captain Fred."
