Chapter 1324 New Dream
Shujuan climbed up to the third floor of the castle with a large stack of information in his hands, and met Nightingale in front of the office, who was yawning and about to leave.
"Aren't you asleep yet?" The latter stopped and raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"Maybe it's because I'm old and I can't sleep lately." Shujuan smiled and shook his head, "Where's Your Majesty, is he already asleep?"
"Well, he went back to the bedroom half an hour ago."
"Then you're still in the office?" She covered her mouth and said, "Are you stealing His Majesty's snacks?"
"Uh...ah haha," Nightingale was stunned for a moment, then coughed twice, "Yes, I ate his spicy shredded beef and secretly drank two sips of Chaos Drink. Don't tell His Majesty."
This time it was Shujuan's turn to be stunned.
What happened to her...that she could respond so simply. In the past, Nightingale would never admit it as long as she was not caught red-handed.
But when he thought that he and Wendy often took away her drinks, Shujuan didn't know what to do for a while.
"Well, I'm going to bed first..." Nightingale turned away and walked towards the second floor. "Don't stay up too late. I heard Roland say that the older you get, the greater the consequences of lack of sleep." She was at the bottom of the stairs. He raised his head and said, "Good night."
"...Good night." Shujuan replied inexplicably, then turned and walked into the office.
Although the flame in the fireplace has been extinguished, the warmth of the heater is still there, and there seems to be some faint fragrance lingering in the air. It seems that Nightingale has been here for a long time.
Without thinking any more, Shujuan skillfully opened the bookcase, put the materials in his hands into categories and put them in the processing column, and then took out the materials that His Majesty needed to answer.
They are all a series of extremely long calculation formulas. Judging from the handwriting, they are Roland's, Anna's and Celine's. One of her daily tasks is to bring this information to the Academy of Arithmetic, let the group of astrologers calculate the answers, and then submit them to the central carrier for verification.
Judging from the text description alone, these things should be related to His Majesty's new experiment. It's just that she doesn't understand at all why she can determine the size of a device that no one has ever seen or even imagined by just doing calculations on paper. It seemed as if those on the paper were not numbers, but an outline of reality. In her opinion, this was no different from predicting the future.
Whenever he saw Anna Juanxiu's notes, Shujuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart. This girl who was born in Border Town has reached a realm that they cannot understand at all. Obviously everyone was sitting in this office at the beginning, watching the interesting popular science experiments conducted by His Majesty, and everyone could add a word or two. But now the only one who can still follow His Majesty closely is Anna.
But she didn't feel any sense of loss in her heart, only full of pride.
- Because that's her sister.
Shujuan sat at Roland's desk and opened the information as usual, intending to memorize them all. In this way, even if there are omissions or omissions in the distribution calculation, she will be able to detect them in time.
However, this time she noticed something strange.
"Am I...dazzled?"
Shujuan rubbed his eyes and found a string of characters floating vaguely behind some formulas, as if that was its answer.
It wouldn't be surprising if this was an assessment paper or a household registration file. Since she mastered the art of quick search, she can often tell where a file comes from and everything related to it at the first glance.
The problem is that this is the first time she has seen this information.
Not only are the meanings represented by the arithmetic expressions in the books incomprehensible, but even the "answers" floating behind them are unclear, making it difficult to even understand them.
And not every formula has similar weird symbols after it, most columns are still blank.
If you stare at those ethereal symbols for a long time, you may even feel dizzy.
It seems that Nightingale is right, staying up too late does have its effects. Shujuan sighed softly, but his sleepiness has not been high recently, as if his brain is always running at high speed.
How about asking the medical hospital to prescribe some sleeping fern tomorrow? She couldn't help but think that this stuff had little side effects on witches, and taking it once or twice would have no effect.
After reluctantly memorizing all the information, Shujuan suddenly felt a strong sense of dizziness coming over him, and even his consciousness became a little blurry. When her body leaned forward involuntarily, the pen holder placed on the table also fell down due to her mistake.
It's just that this dizziness came and went quickly. Within a few breaths, she felt that she was back to normal again. Not to mention any discomfort, her thoughts seemed much clearer than before.
Shujuan blinked, and after confirming that he was indeed fine, he smiled wryly and bent down to pick up the pen holder.
At this moment, she felt as if she had been struck by thunder.
Because the appearance of the floor...has changed.
His Majesty's office was a scene she would definitely remember. The floor was made of pine wood from the Hidden Forest, with a wool carpet covering it. Although the appearance was slightly old, His Majesty had never replaced it. The carpet under your feet is still a wool carpet, but the material of the floor in the distance has changed.
From wood to stone.
How can this be?
Shujuan raised his head cautiously, his heart continuing to sink.
Not only the floor, but the entire office seemed to have changed. The recliner where Nightingale often sat disappeared without a trace, and was replaced by a row of old iron filing cabinets. At first glance, it looked a bit like an archive in the administrative hall. .
But she should have been in the castle before!
By the way, floor-to-ceiling windows!
That is His Majesty's favorite decoration, and it is also a feature of the office. As long as you look outside, you can see the city of Neverwinter lit up under the night sky——
Shujuan turned around suddenly and opened the velvet curtain behind him.
All that came into view was a gray brick wall.
There is no doubt that this is no longer the office of His Majesty the King that she is familiar with.
She stood up in a panic and rushed to the wall and knocked twice. The wall did not move at all - from the steady echo, it was obvious that it was not an illusion, but a real entity.
Shujuan felt a hint of despair.
Anyone who is suddenly transferred to a completely enclosed and unfamiliar place will probably feel a strong sense of helplessness and vulnerability.
No... She took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. Completely closed is not accurate. In the corner between two rows of filing cabinets, there is an inconspicuous iron door. It's almost the same color as the cabinet, and it's easy to miss it if you don't look carefully.
This seemed to be the only exit from the room.
Where will the iron gate lead?
Is it a trap or another wall waiting for her outside?
Shujuan couldn't help but think about these problems and slowly held the doorknob.
"Click——"
The iron door opened in response.
A ray of golden sunlight shone into the room, and then the silence was broken, and countless sounds rushed in along with the cold air - there were noisy conversations, beeping whistles, and continuous footsteps. In front of her, countless people were hurriedly walking with their heads lowered. Occasionally, some people would glance at her once or twice, with a little surprise on their faces.
And behind this group of people, huge tall buildings like mountains rose one after another, occupying the entire field of view of the scroll.
