Dawn of the Grey Tower

Although the mage always feels like staying up all night, he conducts research day and night in a room without natural light sources. But when there is no research, their lives are actually very regular. An hour before dawn, Yoni woke up. beggar

The strange room is not the reason for him to wake up, it is better to say that there is no place in this world where he can relax as a writer, and he wakes up purely because he does not have to sleep anymore. After getting a full rest, Youni gently got up from the blanket, and there was a slight snoring sound coming from the level of the soles of his feet, and Helen hadn't woken up yet.

Considering the protest of the earl's daughter about the sleeping environment and the presence of the opposite **** in the same bedroom before going to bed last night, Yoni couldn't help showing a troubled expression. He has never come into contact with peers in this state, not in City of Laws, and even less in Riverrun.

But that's all right, Yoni has a hollow heart, he has no home, no common sense, no kinship, none of these things have ever been and never will be, which is synonymous with wretchedness to most people, but to him, He doesn't even feel sentimental.

Being hollow is not a bad thing, it means strong receptivity, which is different from the tenacity of weeds. Toughness refers to being able to persist in one's self in the midst of drastic changes, while Kong, who doesn't care about himself, can also embrace the drastic changes themselves.

Is there any difference between the city of ten thousand rivers and the cabin in the valley? Maybe it's no different.

Pinwei was not in the house, and the traces of half-demons were always very strange. Maybe he was preparing some terrible plot, or maybe he was just preparing breakfast.

Youni didn't trust Pingwei as much as he trusted cheese. All the organs in his body told him that he was not a trustworthy object. These organs from various animals rarely have a unified conclusion, so it is necessary to take it seriously. beggar

Footsteps, stepping on wood without any sound. Youni turned his head to confirm that Helen was still asleep, then opened the door and left the room.

The air outside is very cold. Youni, who has never been to such a north, naturally has never felt this kind of cold. The sense of stagnation that penetrates the nasal cavity into the lungs and spreads to the limbs makes him move his body subconsciously.

Then he saw a gray figure coming out of the tower not far away.

"Teacher." Youni spit out a puff of white smoke, and walked quickly towards the cheese. The gray robe that was also puffing out the white mist saw the apprentice, nodded slightly, then spread his arms and moved his body. People are very dependent on habits. After leaving the Northland for a while, his resistance to the cold will decline.

"Did you rest well last night? Your room will be finished in a few minutes. Before that, you can go shopping with me." After getting a positive answer, Cheese took the apprentice and walked outside the valley city .

After all, the ruins were not really abandoned, and the vegetation on the ground disappeared without a trace when they were crushed by snowflakes. However, the situation is different once they walk out of the original city wall. The tough herbaceous plants have already broken through the snow layer, hanging hoarfrost and waiting for the dawn.

Whether it is winter or summer, sunlight can provide them with the kinetic energy needed for life, and as long as there is light, they can survive. beggar

The snow has almost melted near the water flow. As long as the river itself does not freeze, it can retain some heat. Cheese brought his apprentices to the water's edge, and slapped his face with cold running water, completely awakening his mind.

"These waters are formed by the melting of ice and snow on Longji Mountain. They are very pure. If you want to use water-related spells later, it will be much easier to bring some with you." There was no intention to attend class, Cheese casually taught You Another important point for Ni as a mage is because of his location is the best choice for casting materials.

"I remember." Youni tried to drink a little of the river water, remembering its taste. As is the custom of the dwellers of Riverrun, they can taste a bit of water to tell which river it comes from. In the world, only the residents of the City of Ten Thousand Rivers would need and master this weird skill.

"Are you comfortable getting along with Helen? Her way of casting spells is very different from yours. The most spells you cast come from mastering your body, while she is almost driven by emotions." The mage waved away a piece of snow and sat down on the ashes. On the green grass, at the same time, he greeted the apprentices to come to him.

At the junction of Longji Mountain and the sky in the distance, you can already see some thin shimmering light, it is so faint and so pure. In fact, when it comes to the light of the morning sun, this point has the highest purity, but it is too weak, it can only play the role of the first weak note in the movement, and it cannot bring any practical significance.

"I think she's a little afraid of me. It's not just me. She's afraid of many things. I can't tell you the specifics. Her spells... are a little different from what I know. I can hardly feel the process of her casting, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com may be because I am too slow."

The gray robe listened to Youni's words quietly, and was not surprised that the apprentice claimed to feel Helen's fear. It is said that children are animals. This is not entirely wrong. Children do show their animal side before they grow up. That's the part Yoni feels, the smell of fear. beggar

"You feel right. Her problems, well, are not simpler than yours. That's why I asked her to go with you yesterday, and it turned out just as I expected. Strictly speaking, both of you have single-handedly solved those problems. The ability of the shadow, but the effect has become worse when combined. I don't mean to reprimand you, because this is the result I want. A mage can solve most problems by himself, but he can never solve all problems by himself. Breeds arrogance and short-sightedness, and I don't want my students to follow the old path."

The conversation by the river didn't last long, and when the sun was fully up, Cheese had brought Youni back to the wooden house next to the tower. Elsa and Helen had woken up early and were talking in chairs after washing.

"The first group of guests you are going to receive today is the Harpy. They have a bad temper, so be careful not to show expressions that irritate them. Other than that, there is nothing taboo about it. Let them go to the library in a hanging basket. good."

During breakfast, Elsa told the two apprentices about today's visitors one by one. This was also a science popularization about the power of inhuman creatures in Cangshi. Elsa's explanations mostly focus on social aspects, and Cheese will insert a few words to explain the characteristics of the guests.

"If the next group of guests arrives but the previous group doesn't come out, you should ask them to wait outside. If necessary, Gray Man can send some people to you."

Cheese left these words at the end and disappeared into the tower.
