A guard raised a crossbow. The librarian used to sit hunched over in front of the wine glass, but now lazily extended one arm like two large broomsticks tied together with rubber bands, slamming the guard back a few steps. After hitting the star on Lingsi Feng's hat with a bow and arrow, it bounced away. A respected pimp sat two tables away, and the arrow hit the wall next to him. His personal bodyguard flew out a dagger, almost injuring a thief across the room. The thief then picked up a bench and smashed it towards two guards, who then turned to attack the nearest drinker. Afterwards, there was a long chain reaction, and soon everyone began to fight desperately - either desperately to hide, or desperately to squeeze out, or desperately to wave their fists.
Ling Sifeng was constantly pulled by the girl towards the back of the bar. Under the counter, the shop owner sat on a money bag with two curved knives lying horizontally on his knees. At this moment, he was taking a break from his busy schedule and drinking a small drink. The occasional sound of broken furniture would make his face twitch.
Before being dragged away, the last person to catch Lingsifeng's eye was the librarian. Although it looks like a furry rubber bag filled with water, the weight and arm span of this gorilla are not inferior to anyone in the house. At present, he is sitting on the shoulder of a guard, trying hard to twist the other person's head, and his grades are not bad.
For Lingsifeng, the more pressing issue is that he is being dragged upstairs.
My dear lady, "he asked anxiously," what do you want to do
Is there a way to the roof here
Yes. What's in that box
Shh
She stopped at the corner of the dark corridor, reached out from her waist bag and took out a small metal object, scattering it on the floor behind them. Inside this one, each nail is welded together with four nails, so no matter how it lands, there will always be one vertically facing upwards.
She looked at the nearest door with a picky gaze.
You probably have a rope about four feet long on you, right? "She looked a little melancholic. Just now she took out another flying knife and was playing with it in her hand.
I'm afraid not, "Lingsifeng replied weakly.
Unfortunately, I've run out of them. Forget it, come on
Why? I didn't do anything
She walked up to the nearest window, pushed open the blinds, and extended one leg outside the windowsill.
Okay, "she turned her head and said," then you can stay here and explain to those guards
Why are they chasing you
I don't know
Oh, come on! There must be some reason
Oh, there are many reasons. I just don't know which one it's for this time. Are you coming or not
Lingsi Feng hesitated. The reputation of the private guard of the prince is very good, but it is not because they are willing to maintain a positive attitude when carrying out community policing work. In fact, cutting people into pieces is more in line with their taste. One of the things they deeply abhor is that, well, basically, they exist in the same universe as them. Escaping their pursuit is likely to be considered a capital offense.
I think maybe I should go with you, "he said bravely." In this city, girls alone may encounter some danger
The frozen mist filled the streets of Anko Mobock. The lights of the small stall drew small yellow circles in the thick fog.
The girl stopped at a corner and turned around to look back.
Get rid of them, "she said," there's no need to shiver anymore. You're safe now
The so-called safety means that I am alone with a female murderer? "Lingsi Fengdao said," Okay
She relaxed and laughed loudly at him.
I just observed you, "she said." An hour ago, you were worried that your future would be dull and uninteresting
I want it to be dull and uninteresting, "Lingsi Feng said with a bitter laugh," otherwise I'm worried it will be very short-lived
Turn around, "she commanded as she stepped into a small alley.
Even if it means taking your life, I won't do it, "he said.
I need to take off my clothes
Lingsi Feng suddenly turned around, his face turning red. There was a rustling sound and a fragrance behind him. After a while, she said, "You can open your eyes now
He didn't move.
Don't worry. I've worn something else
Lingsifeng opened her eyes and found that the girl had already put on a dignified lace long dress, with fluffy sleeves that were very charming. The wizard opened his mouth. He was acutely aware of a problem: until just now, his troubles were quite simple and limited. With a little opportunity, he would definitely use his clever tongue to persuade the other party to let him go. Even if this move didn't work, he could still throw a tantrum, as long as the other party allowed him a few steps. His brain began to send emergency signals to the muscles responsible for sprinting, but before they were in place, she had already grabbed his arm again.
You really don't have to be so nervous, "she said sweetly." Now, let's take a look at this thing
Lingsifeng obediently held the box in his arms; She pulled open the box cover and took out the principal's hat.
The eight diamonds surrounding the top of the hat emit dazzling light, with all eight colors in the spectrum available; They created a very special effect in the misty alley, which would have required a clever and capable special effects director and a whole team of starlight mirrors if it weren't for magic. She lifted it high, and the hat created a colorful nebula. Ordinary people usually only see this scene after engaging in certain illegal activities, and there are very few people who can have this honor when they are sober.
Ling Sifeng knelt down in slow motion.
She looked down at him with a strange expression on her face.
Are your legs weak
This is - this is that hat. The principal's hat, "Lingsifeng said hoarsely. He squinted his eyes. You stole it! "He roared and struggled to stand up, reaching out to grab the shiny brim of his hat.
It's just a hat
Give it to me now! Women are not allowed to touch it! It belongs to a wizard
Why are you so excited
Lingsi Feng opened his mouth. Lingsifeng closed his mouth.
He wants to say: This is the principal's hat, don't you understand? This is worn by the heads of all wizards, um, on the heads of all wizards. No, symbolically speaking, it is worn by all wizards together. In theory, it should be like this, and it is the goal pursued by every wizard. It is a symbol representing organized magic, the pinnacle of the entire profession, and a symbol. Its significance to all wizards lies in
Wait, wait, wait. The matter of the principal's hat was told to Lingsifeng on his first day of school, and at that time he was easily moved, so the story sank into his jelly like a heavy piece of lead. He is not sure about many things in the world, but he is very certain about the importance of the principal's hat. Everyone hopes to have a little magic in their life, maybe even wizards are no exception.
Lingsi Feng. The hat said.
He widened his eyes at the girl and said, 'It's talking to me!'
Just like the sound that came out of your mind
That's right
It's the same for me
But it knows my name
Of course we know your name, stupid guy. After all, we are magical hats.
The sound of the hat not only has the texture of the fabric, but also has a peculiar reverberation, as if many voices are speaking at the same time, and the timing is almost seamless.
Lingsi Feng perked up his spirits.
Oh, a great and wonderful hat, "the wizard's tone was quite exaggerated," please knock down this woman who knows no bounds. She is so reckless, no, not just reckless, she is
Oh, come on, shut up. She stole from us because we gave orders. It's very risky, really.
But she is... "Lingsifeng hesitated," But her gender is... "he murmured.
Your mother is the same.
Yes, okay, but she ran away before I was born, "Lingsifeng said vaguely.
There are countless notorious taverns throughout the city, and no matter how you choose, you just end up in his place. The hat complained.
The only wizard I can find is him, "the girl said." He looks quite like that, doesn't he? His hat even says' witch 'or something
You can't believe everything you read. Anyway, it's too late now. We don't have much time.
Wait, wait, "Ling Sifeng quickly interjected," What's going on? You want her to steal you? Why don't we have much time? "He extended a finger at the principal's hat and began to challenge," Anyway, how could you let someone steal you casually? You should stay on the principal's head! The ceremony is tonight, and I should have attended as well
Something terrible happened in college. We must never be taken back, understand? You must take us to Krach, where there is someone who deserves us.
Why? "Lingsifeng concluded that the voice was somewhat strange. It sounds completely irresistible, as if it is a real destiny. If it commands him to walk off the cliff, he is likely to have to wait until he falls halfway before thinking that he should resist a little.
The end of all magic is imminent.
Ling Sifeng looked around with a guilty expression.
Why? "He asked.
The world will soon be destroyed.
What, are you here again
i mean it. The hat said gloomily. The victory of the Ice Giant, the apocalypse, the afternoon tea time of the gods, all of this.
Can we stop it
The future is currently uncertain.
The resolute fear on Lingsifeng's face slowly began to fade away.
Is this a riddle? "He asked.
If you just listen to people's orders and don't think about understanding anything, things may be easier. The hat said. Young woman, now you put us back in our box. Many people will come to us soon.
Hey, wait a minute, "Lingsi Fengdao said," Why haven't I heard you talk in all these years
I don't have anything to say.
Lingsifeng nodded. It sounds quite reasonable.
Listen, just put it in the box, we need to hurry, "the girl said.
Please show a little more respect, young lady, "Lingsi Feng said arrogantly," what you mentioned happens to be a symbol of ancient magic
Then you can take it
Hey, I said - "Lingsifeng quickly caught up, and the girl had already run quickly to the end of the alley, crossing a narrow street and entering another alley. Here, the houses on both sides of the road are crowded together drunkenly, and the top floor can even touch each other. She stopped.
What? "She asked sternly.
You are the mysterious thief, aren't you? "Ling Sifeng said." Everyone is talking about you, saying that you can steal anything even if it's on the chain. You are not what I imagined
Oh? "She said coldly," What's the difference
Well, you're even shorter
Oh, hurry up and leave
In this neighborhood, streetlights were not very common and have completely disappeared here. There is nothing ahead except for the lurking darkness.
I said hurry up, "she repeated," what are you afraid of
Lingsifeng took a deep breath. Murderers, robbers, thieves, killers, thieves, pickpockets, guards, swindlers, rapists, and robbers, "he said," That's the underworld ahead
That's right, but no one else would come here to find us, "she said.
Oh, they will come, trust me, they just won't go out again, "Lingsi Fengdao said." Just like us. I mean, you're such a young and beautiful woman... I can't imagine it... I mean, there are some people over there
But I have you to protect me, "she said.
Lingsifeng felt as if he could hear the orderly footsteps coming from a few streets away.
Do you know? "He sighed," I actually expected you to say that
Then let's go, walk into these treacherous streets, he thought to himself. When he reaches some of these areas, he will scatter and run away.
On this misty spring night, with no fingers visible in the yellow spring, readers cannot even read how the spiritual wind passes through the gloomy and terrifying alleys. Therefore, the description in this paragraph will be slightly elevated, crossing over the gorgeous roofs, over a winding chimney, and admiring the few stars that break through the thick fog. We will strive to ignore the movements that rise from below: the sound of small steps and sprints, the creaking of cartilage friction, moans, and screams muffled in the throat. All of this sounds like a wild beast, who has been on a diet for two weeks and has decided to come for a stroll in the underworld.
There is a courtyard near the center of the Yellow Spring - this area has never been properly mapped, so the location can only be roughly described. There are at least torches on the walls here, but the light they emit is like the underworld itself, emitting a sinister red light, and the core is pitch black.
Lingsifeng stumbled into the yard and immediately grabbed onto the wall, panting heavily. The girl then walked into the red light and hummed a tune to herself.
Are you okay? "She asked.
Mmm, mmm,
Sorry
Those people, "Lingsifeng said incoherently," I mean, you kicked him like that... you caught them... you even stabbed that one with a sword... who are you
My name is Konina
Ling Sifeng looked at her with a bewildered expression.
Sorry, "he said," I haven't heard of it
I haven't been here long, "she said.
Well, I guess you're not from here either, "he said," otherwise I would have heard of it
I've found a place to stay here. Shall we go in
