Chapter 472 Withering the Body, an Efficient Way to Move
Zong Shen's solution is very simple, that is, to hand over the choice to the two sisters.
His right hand swayed behind him, took out the [Advanced Avalon Book (Purple)], and walked slowly to them.
On the brown cover of this advanced book, there is the kingdom emblem of the dragon roaring, which is also the family emblem of the Pendragon royal family.
That giant dragon was lifelike, and it was a bit peculiar in the past. It didn't look like a common five-color dragon, nor did it look like a metal dragon.
The dragon of the emblem is more powerful than the known dragon species in shape.
Although it is only a simple emblem, it has an inexplicable power.
It looks like Io, the legendary nine-faced dragon god.
The so-called "nine-faced dragon god" means that the god Io can change into any form, communicate with any creature, coexist peacefully, and is worshipped and respected by thousands of races.
It doesn't mean having nine heads or having nine faces at the same time.
According to the worship habits of the Avalon Kingdom, it is really possible that it is Io, the nine-faced dragon god.
When he took out the [Advanced Book of Avalon], he basically attracted the attention of the sisters Madeleine and Mapel in an instant.
No professional fighter can resist the temptation to level up and become a hero.
Above the Dragonborn Ranger is the Tier 4 Avalon Strike Ranger, which is also a relatively high-level marksman in the mainland.
I saw Zong Shen standing in front of the two sisters, shaking the advanced book in his hand.
They looked at each other with the two sisters, and then spoke slowly.
"Mapel, Madeleine, here is an Avalon Advanced Book."
"I will give it to one of your two sisters, and now I leave the decision to you."
Zong Shen said in a calm tone, and then placed the advanced book on the small round table in front of the two sisters.
Turn around and prepare to leave. This choice should be left to the two sisters themselves.
He didn't want to get involved and make tangled decisions.
"grown ups…"
The two sisters glanced at each other at the same time, and suddenly shouted when he was about to turn away.
Zong Shen stopped and looked sideways at them.
"Please give the advanced book to your sister/sister..."
The two sisters said almost in unison, and the tacit understanding in blood was revealed at this moment.
Zong Shen was a little helpless, but the scene of such a deep sisterhood was the source of his embarrassment.
"As I said, this time it's up to you to decide."
"We have been making progress and growing, and I believe it won't be long before we get another advanced book."
Zong Shen calmed down softly, then left firmly, he walked to the long table, and Mariel had already brought him the breakfast that had been kept warm on the stove.
No matter what choice the two sisters make, Zong Shen can accept it without any psychological burden. The most important thing is that he will not feel guilty, and the two sisters will not be dissatisfied with his distribution.
He sat on the first seat, leaning his body comfortably.
The flames in the fireplace rose very vigorously, and with the insulation of the outer ice shell from the cold, most of the heat was kept in the lord's small building.
Just because of the relative closure, the air in the small building at this time is a little turbid.
Seeing Mariel who was busy in the kitchen like a caring little cook, Zong Shen grabbed her arm after she put down the tableware.
"Mariel, these are the complete drawings I got from the Winter Treasure Chest yesterday."
"I'll leave it all to you for safekeeping."
"There are also some new buildings in the [Building] list, which requires you to pay more attention."
"Wait until the end of winter, and build everything that needs to be built."
Zong Shen took a handful of architectural drawings and stuffed them into Mariel's arms.
Most of these complete buildings are rare buildings, which can quickly play a role in related fields.
Mariel nodded obediently and put all these complete drawings into her storage compartment.
After all the breakfast was served on the table, she bowed and left, found a vacant seat in the living room, and began to seriously look up every architectural drawing.
She needs to know the types and specific effects of these drawings before she can know them.
As for Zong Shen, he was eating breakfast on his own, as if he was separated from the living room by two realms.
When he was halfway through his meal, it was already eight o'clock in the morning.
A bluish-gray light shone beside him, and a hunched figure appeared.
"grown ups…"
It sounded like a crow chirping.
It was the mid-level space mage Rhys Ulysses who had just joined last night.
Looking at the time made up of golden characters in front of him, Zong Shen felt that this guy was both rigid and punctual.
It was exactly eight o'clock in the morning as agreed last night, and it wasn't bad at all.
Zong Shen's watch has long been damaged in previous battles, and now he keeps it in his bedroom as a collection.
The lord system will send a time notification on 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, and 4 every day, and there is no clear time indication at other times.
This world has a time difference, about three or four hours, but the lord system doesn't care about these situations, it adopts a unified time standard for all lords.
12:00 noon every day is an obvious node. At this time, lords in different areas should be able to experience different differences.
Zong Shen turned his head to look at Reese Ulysses, smiled and pointed to the vacant seat beside him.
The breakfast on the table is very rich, and Zong Shen can't enjoy it alone. He only needs to prepare another set of tableware for her.
"Maryl, go get another set of cutlery."
"Let's have breakfast first."
Zong Shen first commanded Mariel, and then said to Reese Ulysses.
The old-fashioned space mage grinned, most of her teeth missing.
The few remaining rotten teeth are also staggered.
With a long staff, she sat tremblingly in the vacant seat next to Zong Shen.
"I want to take the liberty to ask your age."
Zong Shen skewered a sausage with a fork and chewed it in his mouth.
Perhaps because of repeated cooking and heating, this sausage is far less amazing than the one I had the night before.
He looked at Reese Ulysses naturally and raised his doubts.
"Ha ha…"
"Cough cough cough."
"Sir, don't be so polite."
"Since I swear allegiance to you, then you have rights over me."
"As for my age, it's not too hard to tell..."
"I'm 32 by pre-ban standards."
"It's a pity that my body died once."
"That's why it withered to what it is now."
Rhys Ulysses said indifferently, the calm expression on her face was like a pool of stagnant water.
"Oh?"
"Have you died once?"
When Zong Shen heard her say that, the fire of curiosity in his heart immediately began to burn.
I saw Rise Ulysses raised his head and looked at Zong Shen with those deep light blue eyes.
"I once tried to integrate my body into the space. This is the method recorded in ancient books."
"If it is successful, it can turn the form into a semi-void form, which has strong spatial integration."
"After entering such a form, it is almost equivalent to eternal life, comparable to those long-lived species, the shackles of the flesh will no longer exist..."
When Zong Shen heard this, he glanced at her thoughtfully and interrupted her.
"Obviously, you failed."
"I'm really curious about the era ten thousand years ago, you are really a bunch of lunatics."
There was emotion in his tone. Many of these dimensional warriors who were banned in the recruitment volume were the weirdos and freaks of the year.
Their experiences are all telling the same thing, the disorder and chaos of the year.
In fact, only a chaotic situation can burst out these crazy flames, like the aborigines now, but it is a pool of stagnant water.
Order maintains stability, but also stifles progress to a certain extent.
"Sorry, Reese, you can continue."
After a few words of emotion, Zong Shen stretched out a palm towards her and made a "please" gesture to signal her to continue.
"Yes, I failed."
"My body was imprisoned in space, almost integrated with the barriers inside the plane. At the same time, I began to lose control of my body and couldn't move."
"Space and time are interdependent, although the great Master of Liberal Studies, Mr. Allen, once questioned that 'time' does not exist."
"But the Temporal Magister has indeed seen a long river of time. Time and space are not so much a magical element, but a peculiar sense of induction."
"And the changes and effects of time are far-reaching."
"When my body was trapped in the inner barrier, the flow of time was distorted. When I got out, the body had already passed eighty or ninety years and began to become weak and rotten."
Rhys Ulysses's tone remained calm, and the accident that happened in pursuit of power was a very kind price.
At least she is still alive, and through the ban, she has lived until now.
"Hehehe..."
"But don't worry, as a fourth-order mage, my lifespan is far from over."
"If I can't break through in my lifetime, I can probably live another twenty or thirty years."
She said very freely, the old voice lacked the vitality it should have.
Zong Shen just nodded and didn't say anything. Rhys Ulysses had said it for the sake of it, and what he said was meaningless.
The two are not familiar with each other, so Zong Shen will not make any promises here.
His care for his subordinates depends on his attitude and contribution. Now that the fundamentals of the territory have taken shape, he will no longer deliberately please the newly added soldiers.
Everything must be done according to the rules, and it must be able to contribute to the territory, show loyalty and diligence, and then get follow-up resource tilt.
Mariel quickly brought a set of clean cutlery from the kitchen and placed it in front of Reese.
As a hero-level figure and a logistics officer in the territory, Ruisi has to call her an adult in terms of status, but with Zong Shen's order, Mariel is also willing to be a little cook.
Ruisi was not polite, she leaned her long staff against the long table, held the dinner plate in one hand, and put food in it with a fork in the other.
He started to eat quickly and neatly. Although it seemed a little rude, Zong Shen really appreciated this style.
About ten minutes later, when Reese Ulysses finished eating the food on the plate, she wiped the corner of her mouth with her blue-gray sleeve.
Whether it's her image, or the style she shows, it's very raunchy.
After eating, Zong Shen got up. said to her.
"Come on, take me out to see."
"By the way, before that, you need to put on a set of warm clothes. The weather outside is very cold, and your body will not be able to bear it."
Zong Shen took out a spare winter clothing from the storage compartment and gave it to her.
Rhys Ulysses didn't say anything, and she put the warm clothes on her hunched body tremblingly, looking a little perfunctory.
"Then please take me out with the flashing skill now."
"With your ability, you should be able to do it."
Zong Shen casually instructed that there is an intermediate space mage by his side, so naturally there is no need to leave the lord's small building by jumping off the building.
When Rhys Ulysses heard the words, she stretched out her hand like a dead branch.
"Sir, please hold my hand."
Zong Shen chose to do so without hesitation.
I saw that she closed her eyes and seemed to be sensing something. After two or three seconds, she activated the primary flashing skill.
Zong Shen was keenly aware that an inexplicable pulling force instantly swallowed him, and he seemed to be confused as if he was watching flowers on a whim. The next moment the surrounding scene changed suddenly, becoming much brighter than the room.
A chill began to come, and the temperature changed significantly.
He took a closer look and saw that he and Ruis had already appeared outside the lord's courtyard.
This is a very efficient way of moving.
Compared with the previous day, the ice layer on the ground was thicker, and the tall bluestone wall of the small courtyard became much shorter under this circumstance.
Looking back, the lord's small building has become a crystal palace, covered with pure and flawless ice clothes.
All of this was due to the super cold freezing rain, which fell for two hours last night.
It still takes some effort to get out of the lord's small building from the ice shell of this thickness.
He took out a heat ball, activated it, and threw it to Reese, letting her stuff it into the pocket of her sheepskin jacket.
Today's weather is fair, except for the low temperature, there is nothing too extreme.
The temperature is still dropping sharply, and it will continue until ten o'clock in the morning, when the temperature will reach minus 70 degrees Celsius.
A temperature change of 20 degrees Celsius in a few hours is enough to be called "dramatic".
At least so far, Zong Shen has been able to adapt. Compared with the wind and snow, the low temperature is more benevolent.
He was going to take this opportunity to take Ruisi to the nearest small iceberg.
Reese's [Primary Blink] enables short-distance continuous movement.
The maximum distance is five kilometers, and it needs to consume 100 magic points. In the case of carrying one person, this consumption has to be doubled.
But for Zong Shen, the problem of consumption is nothing.
