Chapter 766 Time Thief
Angel naturally noticed the three people on the mountainside. When he first saw someone halfway up the mountain, he thought there would be a tough battle to be fought, but when he learned their information from Toby and saw them with his own eyes, He turned around and left hesitantly, and he basically understood the thoughts of this group of people.
Probably just to sell well and brush your face.
That's all for Jetbo. Angel recalled the appearance of the other two people. The woman with pure white eyes and a fish scale tattoo on her earlobe, she must be an apprentice of Song of the Deep Sea; as for the other Zibo whose arms turned into black wings, The woman reminded him of another group of people Gurman had mentioned.
"Are they from Xialu Hailing?" Angel thought to himself. Judging from the atmosphere when they left just now, Xialu Hailing and Song of the Deep Sea didn't seem to be harmonious... He originally thought that these two forces were... United together, it seems that there are discrepancies at present.
Now that they left, Angel didn't think about it anymore. Instead, he put the cloak in front of him into his bracelet, then recalled Toby and flew to the Earl of New Ross's Mansion.
Although he was curious about the specific effect of the cloak, the appearance of Jiebo and the others made Angel wary and he did not directly check it in the wild.
On the way back, Toby chirped twice at Angel out of curiosity.
"Why did the alchemical omen last so long this time?" Angel repeated Toby's question, and then replied: "Half an hour? In terms of the time of the alchemical omen, it is indeed a bit long. But The time I experienced in the vision space was longer..."
Recalling the vision space, Angel unconsciously thought of the black figure on the Wheel of Time.
Who is he? Is his existence a figure created by the vision space to test Angel? Just like the vision space that I entered when I was refining the bracelet, there was an extremely lively town in it, and the people in the town should all be fictional characters created by the vision.
But Angel vaguely felt that something was wrong. He said that his real name was very long and he liked others to call him Cassini. However, will a fictional character add a specific personality to himself?
And what did the other party mean when he said that his choice was taken away? Angel has already made his choice, why should he take away the other choice he once gave up?
What struck Angel the most was that Cassini once said something in his words: Although you can only take away one of your past choices, it is still delicious.
Take away, past choices?
Does this mean that Cassini can still take away his future options? Or is he just being mysterious?
The premise of these doubts is that Cassini is not a fictional character in the vision space. If Cassini is a virtual character in the vision space, then Angel doesn't need to pay attention to what he said.
Unfortunately, Angel couldn't even determine the premise of this doubt. However, at least he knew the other party's name, which was a clue. When he had the opportunity to meet Master Midora again, he could consult him.
…
Meanwhile, in a garden full of roses in the Savage Cave.
Accompanied by the elegant fragrance of flowers, David was immersed in the tests Liana gave him. These tests included many items, including David's understanding of alchemical knowledge, his breadth of thinking, and many experimental alchemical tests.
Much of the knowledge in the test was beyond the scope, at least David had never learned it before. Fortunately, Liana gave him half a year to answer the question. By going to the cloud library to look up information and David's own personal insights, he gradually conquered many tests.
However, the information in the Cloud Library is not free. In just a few months, he spent nearly six or seven thousand magic crystals. This was something that David thought was almost impossible in the past.
But there was no other way. In order to pass the test, David had no choice but to work hard.
Because this test is related to whether he can become Lianna's disciple.
Speaking of which, the person David should be most grateful to was Angel. Because he helped to auction the music box, he caught the attention of Lady Lianna, and this test was born because of this.
Now, the test has come to an end. David turned to the last page of the test.
David was stunned. There was only one row of words on this page.
"What is your future intention? Pharmacy or epigraphy, what is the specific faction?"
"Of course it's for fragrance production. Are you transformed from a mayfly creature? Isn't this very clear? I really wonder if your distinguished master has been struck by a terrible curse. Why should you be given the opportunity to become his student?" The ups and downs of the voice and the vicious words were spoken from the mouth of a large rose with a mouth and teeth.
This bright red rose was in the center of the garden, right next to the stone table where David sat.
Because the tongue shines like a lotus flower and saliva flies everywhere, this flower does not have the elegance that a rose should have, but is full of a vulgar and obscene temperament.
"Jack Su, can you shut up?" David narrowed his eyes and glared fiercely at the rose opposite.
The rose named Jack Su still kept her mouth wide open and kept saying: "Don't you know what Master is proficient in? Do you still want to continue studying epigraphy? Please, if you don't want to become Master's teacher, Just leave as soon as possible, I see you in the rose garden every day, you are as disgusting as the morning dew with salt."
Although Jack Su kept trying to eliminate David, in the past few months, he had also become familiar with Jack Su's character.
In addition to his vicious mouth, his heart is also... vicious. However, during this period, David, apart from going to Prome's Alchemy Shop, was in the Rose Garden. Jack Su, the lonely chatterbox, now had someone to complain about. In addition, as they spent more time together, David could occasionally hear some caring words from Jack Su.
For example, now.
Although Jack Su's words were unpleasant to hear, they were indeed giving David serious advice.
David was not very clear about what he should choose for the future. Originally, he was determined to follow the path of epigraphy, but this was also because of the influence of Master Prome. And what Lady Lianna was better at, as Jack Su said, was the fragrance making of pharmacy.
He wanted to worship Lady Lianna as his teacher, and studying pharmacy was obviously better than epigraphy.
But was he going to give up epigraphy like this? David was a little unwilling.
But this was the last item of the test given by Lady Lianna, and it was obviously also a test to see if David was suitable to be her disciple. Choosing pharmacy might be the right answer.
David was very upset and hesitated for a long time but didn't write it down.
Jack Su was still talking non-stop, which made David even more annoyed. He subconsciously took out his weapon and slammed it on the table, "Shut up!"
With a clang, Jack Su shut up, and David, after a long breath, realized that he had taken out a Tang sword.
The Tang sword that Angle gave him, which he refined and modified himself, was sharp and cold. At the beginning, even Lady Lianna praised it.
"Tang sword..." David looked at the Tang sword, and complex emotions flashed in his eyes.
David looked at it for half an hour. In the end, it was Jack Su who waved his body full of thorns and stabbed David's back of the hand, and he suddenly woke up.
According to the previous plot development, David would pinch his painful back of the hand and chase Jack Su viciously in the garden. But today it seems that the plot has taken a branch line. After David woke up, he ignored Jack Su and wrote a row of words on the paper quickly.
"Epigraphy, blending."
This was his answer. David thought for a long time and finally chose epigraphy. Although it was Master Prometheus who led him into this path at the beginning, as he studied it in depth, he found that he really liked epigraphy.
Only deep love can be the driving force for moving forward.
David remembered that the first time he met Ingres, he tricked Toby into experimenting with the instrument. In fact, he also knew that the instrument was useless, but it was his hobby and he was still looking forward to it.
Another example is the Hanbing Tang Dao, which was also born out of his deep hobby after he forgot to eat and sleep for a long time.
If there is no love and he makes a choice against his own heart, David feels that he may immediately become mediocre.
After making his choice, David let out a long sigh.
Jack Su saw the answer on the paper and rarely said anything bad. "Are you sure you want to choose epigraphy? I remind you again that the master is best at making fragrances."
David still nodded: "I want to choose epigraphy, I like epigraphy. As for pharmacy or fragrance making, I will also take a minor in the future. Now I want to study epigraphy more."
"Minor?" Jack Su said coldly: "Maybe you can't wait for that day, and the time thief will steal all your choices."
"Time thief? What is this?" David was stunned.
Jack Su: "That is a legendary figure you will never meet. If you really meet the time thief, congratulations, you already have the potential to step into the path of truth."
David still didn't understand, what does this have to do with his choice?
Just as Jack Su was about to answer, Lianna, who had appeared out of nowhere, stood on one side of the garden and said lightly: "It has nothing to do with your choice. Jack Su just wants to tell you that as time goes by, variables are constantly generated. If you make this choice, you will inevitably give up another choice. When you want to find the choice you once gave up, perhaps those variables have made it impossible for you to pick it up again."
"Your Excellency means that if I really choose epigraphy, I can't study pharmacy in the future?"
"Of course not, I just mean that every choice you make is important." Lianna looked directly at Jack Su: "Are you sure you want to choose epigraphy?"
Lianna's serious expression made David a little stunned. After a while, he nodded firmly: "Yes."
Lianna stared at David for a long time, and suddenly smiled: "Very good, you will be my disciple in the future, this is your flying card."
As Lianna spoke, she took out a flying card from her space and threw it to David.
The flying card drew an arc, and under the sun, it flashed a golden luster!
