City of Sin: Twenty-five breakthroughs
These two little things, especially when I saw the intimacy of Erin and other men, actually affected Richard, but he didn't know it at the time.
The next morning, the whole bay was still asleep. With the deepening of winter, the night is approaching, the time of still early from the sun, but this does not affect the brightness of the outdoor. The ground, hills, vegetation, inland rivers, and ice are everywhere. Everything is frozen and strong, refracted and reflected. With the light of blue and white pedigrees. Only the sea in the harbour is still wavy.
Unintentionally falling asleep, Richard stood in front of a large floor-to-ceiling window measuring more than ten meters high, silently overlooking the magnificence of Floating Ice Bay. After heavily exhaled a sullen turbid breath, he suddenly felt his eyes widened a lot, and his heart was stretched, which could almost accommodate the entire Floating Ice Bay. In front of the grand space, the darkness of the past few seasons has only left a faint trace. Although it may be accompanied by Richard for a long time, or even when I think about it for the rest of my life, it will be a bit tingling, but every memory, every pain, is wealth after going out.
Richard began to open his eyes and observe the world around him. The first to enter the line of sight is the dark blue medium-sized person. The Archmages who taught them the most were still in touch, but in the eyes of Richard, they were no longer just alchemy machines that constantly poured out knowledge and knowledge, but became living humans, elves, dwarves, and even Dark Elf.
Archmages also have their own joys and sorrows, as well as their own interests. They look at each person's eyes differently, and their attitudes toward others are also different. One shot at a time, one eyebrow at a glance, even the same words, different speech speeds and different tones, all reflect different conclusions in the real world of Richard. With the increasing understanding of Archmage and observations, the number of samples available for comparison in memory is becoming richer and richer. Richard suddenly found that many words and expressions made by teachers are hidden behind what. And these hidden things are gradually being lifted by him.
The Archmage are divided into different fields, so the relationship is different. Some areas are very similar, while others are irrelevant. The relationship between Archmage in similar fields is often not so good, and even bare-naked will step on each other, such as Popovich and Riley. The relationship between Archmage in unrelated fields is much more harmonious, and many of them are still good friends. After observing these, Richard contemplates Meditation, and realizes that the key word that connects these phenomena together is competition, and behind the competition is the interest represented by gold coins.
After opening his eyes, Richard knew a lot. For example, now he finally knows why he suddenly added so many courses in geometry, mathematics, painting and Magic Array, and he also heard about his future ‘Saint Runemaster’ identity.
"It turns out that the teacher wants to cultivate himself in the direction of Runemaster ..." Richard thought in silence. Although he was a teenager who grew up in the mountains, but in the dark blue for more than a year, the vision of Richard is no longer the teenager who knew nothing. However, although Runemaster is in an outstanding position, it is as light as water in the mind of Richard. Under the tentative influence of Elena for ten years, Richard did not know that he actually had a big heart that was flattered.
However, now that she knows what her teacher expects from her, Richard will not let her down. The children in the mountains are stubborn and have a clear love and hatred. Richard is very smart, and many twists and turns have made him far more mature than his peers. Now that he knows his special status in dark blue, he knows more about how many people will get crazy for the Teacher's Delight he gets every month. There are many people with ulterior motives. Although they look at Richard's eyes full of jealousy, desire and plunder, they still keep a certain distance from him, and they dare not use conspiracy to his head at will, Papin It's just a accident/surprise, it's just a few aristocratic children who don't know the depths and shallows of the world.
In addition, Richard has discovered that no matter where he goes, there will always be one or two people who follow him from afar. Whether it's Richard's own feelings, or those thorny eyes in the crowd who never reluctantly withdraw from fear, he can know that this is not surveillance, but protection. In this way, every time I think of the teacher's careless character and the characteristics of love for life, there will always be a faint warmth in Richard heart.
This is the only warmth Richard gets in this winter.
Fortunately, in the muddy days, Richard ’s studies were not affected at all, but in the magic world, he sang forward. Only thinking of this, his already mature heart will be somewhat relieved.
Winter is like winter, and before you know it, spring has arrived. After finishing his studies on that day, Richard dragged his tired body back to residential area. He passed by the steel puppet standing alone in the corner of the wall. He suddenly remembered that his birthday had come again.
Except for the intact head, the steel puppets have been severely twisted and deformed, and they can hardly see their original appearance. That is the result of Richard's repeated use of bursting bloodline abilities. And the walls around it are also covered with large and small potholes, which are traces of being hit by steel puppets.
Richard walked to the side of the puppet and reached out to gently stroke the mottled dents on it. There are sharp folds in the dents and sharp cracks. And not only his fists, but also his elbows, shoulders, knees, and even his head. Old blood stains that had been there for some time condensed on more than one dent.
I realized the faint tingling from my fingertips. After looking at the blood stains, Richard realized that I thought that the winter in the midst of busyness and calmness was not silent at all. Those pains are still there, just hiding so deep, I almost think I have forgotten.
The head of the steel puppet is intact, and the smooth and round surface reflects the deformed face of Richard. The puppets are dilapidated, and the connection of multiple materials is only a thin line, and it may be detached from the main body after another impact. Richard smiled, reached out and patted the face of the puppet, and strode toward the bedroom.
In the class on the second day, there is a drawing class. After listening to a whole class of art appreciation theories, more than a dozen students politely handed in their work drawings in sequence, and then left one after another. Richard was the last one to come up. For some reason, when I saw Richard who was still a teenager, the master suddenly felt very uncomfortable and consciously avoided the eyes of Richard. As long as I think of the ‘paints’ that Richard has handed in, the master feels like there is a wet and cold creature attached to the body, which ca n’t be thrown away, and how sad it is.
The master ’s gaze glanced over the homework to be delivered by Richard and found that it was only a small picture 30 cm square, which relieved him.
This is a landscape painting, painting Floating Ice Bay in winter, showing the severe cold, killing and magnificence in the usual strokes of Richard. Compared with the dark and madness of previous works, this painting finally returned to normal, although the power contained in the lines still made the master feel faintly cold. While breathing a sigh of relief, the master suddenly found that Richard was staring at him intently, and that the pair of pupils, which appeared to be sapphire blue, were actually deep.
"Does this picture look much more comfortable?" Richard's softly whispered words instantly made the master sweat out! He jumped instinctively from the seat and almost tripped over the corner of his robe. But he didn't care about the embarrassment, he pointed at Richard and said, "You .... you ..."
In contrast, Richard is as calm as a iceberg, the smile on his face is more elegant and beautiful, and it seems to be the temptation of Demon whispering. But Demon whispered no less temptation, but the master knew the painful price to be paid behind temptation, that would be the soul falling into the abyss forever! Looking at the rare smile expression of Richard, the cold sweat that slipped down the master's spine was more, and what made him feel chill was that if he remembered correctly, Richard was just twelve years old!
The master would like to ask Richard how he knows his feelings. The words come to his mouth, but there is no exit. No matter how Richard is known, it is known now. And after calming down a little bit, the master knew that Richard must have something to say. The twelve-year-old child made him feel completely unpredictable. And those paintings are reminding the master at the moment, how crazy is the boy in front of him.
The master took a deep breath, sorted out the clothes, took out what the tutor should have, sat down, and signaled that Richard could also sit down. Richard did not sit, but just like any ordinary apprentice who consulted the course, first saluted the master respectfully, and then asked with trained etiquette and elegance: "Master, first of all, I would like to ask you to give I will talk about the world of Runemaster. "
The master was startled and shook his head and said, "I am not Runemaster, but just a Level 12 without a master. If you talk about knowledge related to Runemaster, you should ask the Fayr Archmage or Hulu Archmage that taught you. Their accomplishments on Magic Rune are much better than I don't know ... "
Richard interrupted the master ’s words and said, “No, I do n’t want to ask the professional knowledge of Magic Rune, but I want to know what to do, what responsibilities does an Runemaster do in the outside world, how do they all live? . Also, what are the existing famous Runemasters, their life experiences, deeds, etc. before and after their fame. What I want to know is these. Teacher Fayr or Hu Lu mostly stay in the dark blue, no Like you once traveled on the mainland and were the guests of the seats of the three empires. You must know more about these things. "
The question of Richard made the master stunned again. He did n’t understand why Richard asked these things that are no different from anecdotes. However, the master immediately thought of a possibility, and felt a little weird. According to common sense, this is by no means a 12-year-old child should consider. But out of caution, he asked a little more: "Why do you need to know this?"
"Because I want to be a Runemaster, I need to know what the world of Runemaster is and how to go further in the world of Runemaster. Knowing the life of the great Runemaster in history and reality, you can Know what setbacks they have had and what experience they have. At least, they have made mistakes, I do n’t want to make a second time. ”Richard replied. After a pause, he added, "The world of Runemaster in Runemaster's eyes is different from what others see."
The master suddenly sweated again, which was exactly what he had just thought of.
At this time, it is no longer possible to push back, and from a single emotional point of view, he is willing to impart his knowledge to the child in front of him. These days, through the silent communication of those pictures, the master looks at Richard and always feels a little different from other students.
He sorted out his thoughts and said slowly: "Okay! First of all, my opinion is that Runemaster is not only the creator of miracles, but also should be called the weavers of nightmares. It is because of them Only the emergence of the ultimate armed Rune Knight. one by one is regarded as a fortress, level, and mountain pass that will never fall. All of them are smashed under the one by one of Rune Knight. The emergence of Runemaster changed the war and changed the pattern of the mainland. Norland has greatly accelerated the expansion of Foreign Plane. Without them, the world may be another look, and not so many lives will die ... "
"That is to say, Runemaster is actually the creator of the War Corps." Richard interrupted the master's artistic feelings and chants, and summed it up briefly.
"The same can be said, but ..." The master was very reluctant that Little Richard would come to this conclusion, still trying to struggle, but after careful thinking, he had to say: "Well, what you said is That ’s right. Just as the significance of the legendary profession is that it poses a fatal threat to a country ’s royal family and Great Noble, because no matter what profession, legendary characters can become the most dangerous assassins. And the respect of Runemaster is that they are the country Destroyer. A legion composed of Rune Knight, even if there is only one squad, is enough to defeat a large legion that has surpassed 10,000 people. Now, let ’s start with Lord Lordal, who is the first true Runemaster on the mainland. ... "
The master ’s remarks are brief and vivid, and in a few words, a famous Runemaster once appeared in sight. These Runemaster have created a large number of Rune Knight legions with their own wisdom and genius, and each Rune Knight will be deeply imprinted with the creation of their Runemaster. Every creation created by Runemaster is very different. This is a world that can display personality and talents at will. The most famous Rune masters in history all leave brilliant masterpieces for future generations, such as Solomon ’s Illusion Magic Runeset, Ricardimo Crimson Knight and Saint Peter are the same. There are also a large number of Runemaster trying to imitate and follow the trail of the masters, but these real masters are always imitated, but never surpassed.
It took a full hour for the master to outline the history of Runemaster. If you want to talk about it in detail, I am afraid it is not a job that can be completed in ten days and a half months.
After the master took a break, Richard said, "Thank you, master. My second request is for you to introduce me to someone."
The master nodded and said, "I know a lot of people in Deep Blue. I should say that most of the more special people have some friendship. I don't know what kind of person you need me to introduce to you? Woman? Haha!"
The master ’s cold joke did not make Richard laugh. He lowered his head and remained silent for a while before raising his head as if determined to say, "I want to find someone who can teach me to kill."
