Yuni sleeps heavily. He hasn''t slept like this for a long time. His long wandering life makes his sleep very shallow.
Even after following the chieftain and others, the experience of meeting the offspring of the evil god on the sandbar also made him unable to sleep at ease, for fear that once he went to sleep, he would be swallowed by the worms lurking in the shadow.
But today, in an empty boat far from the ground, in a carriage that was not comfortable at all, he was asleep.
In his dream, he still kept the form of a night heron, flying across the land under the moonlight, following the river and the forest. The breadth of the world seemed endless to the child, and he didn''t have to care where he would fly or where he would fall.
"Wake up." The slight shaking on the shoulder awakened the apprentice. He rubbed his eyes and saw the face of the cheese clearly, so he suddenly got up and waited for the teacher''s next instruction.
"We''re almost there. We''ll stay up until we find a hotel in the city. Now, I want you to look at this and come with me. " The grey robe took the apprentice by the hand and pulled him out of the carriage. The others had been waiting on the edge of the empty boat for a long time.
Euni got out of the car with him. He felt that the sky was a lot dimmer, and the moon was not so bright at the autumnal equinox. He soon realized that there was a reason for this. The dim moonlight was because something brighter was shining on the ground. The whole mountain was shining. It was like some huge monster with countless eyes who suddenly woke up this night.
As the empty boat approached, he saw more details of the monster. The lights were not eyes, but lighting up the streets, buildings, caves and other things on the mountain. Although it''s midnight, the people on the mountain are still busy. This is the most frequent time of logistics in the whole city.
"In fact, it''s not so busy in the city at ordinary times. It''s just because it''s the last full moon before the ceremony and all the supplies have to be ready. So the city is a little noisy. "
Weiya explained to them that there was a touch of pride in her tone. The vehicles that travel on the mountain road in the light do not rely on horses to pull, they use more sophisticated mechanical structure and magic devices to complete the transfer.
Only in this way can the city of Wanfa accomplish so much material dispatch with such a small population. This alone can make it beyond the reach of most secular countries.
"It seems that we are not the only group from the air." Atta''s eyesight is also good at night, so she first found a few black spots on the other side of the sky.
It''s a floating transport ship pulled by a device similar to a hot-air balloon. In terms of size, it''s not much different from an empty ship. It should also be used for the return of the members of the city of vanfa who are going out, and it can''t be used to transport materials.
"Yes, in addition to land transportation, many foreign mages in Wanfa city will use similar aerial vehicles to travel back and forth. Although it''s dangerous, you can avoid a lot of trouble. Compared with the accidents caused by machinery and weather, we generally believe that the human heart is more dangerous and immeasurable. I believe you have experienced this all the way. The world is full of folly, suspicion, lies and shortsightedness. My colleagues and I are not good at dealing with them, so we will try our best to avoid contact with them. "
There was no hesitation in Weiya''s words, which showed that she really thought so.
He knew that the cat goblin would be dissatisfied with this kind of saying, but he had to admit that a few years ago, he was almost acting with a similar idea.
The difference is that the grey robe is thrown directly into the world by the adult ceremony of the grey tower. They have to rely on their own means and ways to deal with ordinary people. In this case, they may look down on ordinary people, or they may not care about their life and death, but they will not avoid contact with ordinary people.
The city of Wanfa is different. When a group of people with the same ideas stay together for a long time, many of their ideas will ferment and infect each other.
At this time, a bright light attracted everyone''s attention. The light appeared from somewhere on the hillside. It was formed by the reflection and amplification of the light in the brazier through the layers of lenses, and could be clearly felt even far away.
"It''s the signal at the connection. I''ll read it." The eyes of the female mage turned to the place where the light came and turned the flash out of the light into a secret language in her mouth.
The same signal was sent out five times before it finally disappeared. In fact, Weiya had completed the confirmation on the third time. She told the workers the specific parking position and asked them to adjust the shape of the paraglider, change the route and land at the designated place.
The empty boat begins to descend and bumps when it passes through different heights. The sky has an invisible layer, just like the sea. Not every height of the wind blows in the same direction.
The workers are nervous, and the hand that pulls the paraglider is tight. Now is the time when accidents are most likely to happen. You know, although they are falling, they are still very far away from the ground. Once the paraglider loses buoyancy due to improper operation, death is only a matter of seconds.
If it is the physical strength and reaction ability of the workers that are tested when taking off, now it is the patience and careful training for them. They must be careful to entangle with the wind and slowly reduce the height.
The cheese licks its finger and stretches it into the air to feel the coolness of the wind, so as to judge the wind direction and force.
In addition, he is quietly using the magic vision to watch the city and its surrounding environment, which can hide the whole city from the real world. The principle may not be difficult for the grey robe, but the problem is the scale. When the scale is large enough, the basic magic will become difficult to perform.
In the final analysis, magic has its limitations. Just like all kinds of common sense in reality, people regard it as the natural principle completely out of the stable surrounding environment. Once they get rid of it, common sense will collapse in a larger environment.
Sure enough, the scene he saw was quite different from his rough imagination. He uttered a silent exclamation, but without further study, he keenly noticed the magic flowing in the air, which was the precursor of the formation of magic.
Cheese narrowed his eyes slightly. He didn''t know what the purpose of the spell was, but he could see that it would disturb the airflow near the empty boat. In ordinary times, it may only mean a gust of wind, but in today''s scene, it is a real means of killing.
There was no time for hesitation. Grey robe stretched out the index finger and middle finger of his right hand, slightly opened them, and then suddenly closed them to make a scissors action.
The stream of magic in the air breaks, and the unproductive magic disappears.
But cheese can''t regard it as never happened. Who is casting magic on them and what is his purpose?
He tried to use the magic of the future to find the source, but in vain, the other side''s technique was very careful, strictly protected his position.
It''s not like a temporary attack. The caster must have planned for a long time for such a precise composition. Then it should not be aimed at the cheese and others who happened to take the empty boat. Thinking of this, he looked at Weiya, who was still directing the workers.
This city is more complicated than it looks. The part that the lamp can illuminate is just the tip of the iceberg, compared with the darkness.
