MTL - Studying Science in the Alternate World-Chapter 268 homecoming

  Chapter 268 Homecoming

   Living in the Xueshan Palace for the past few days was a sweet and happy few days for Duke, and he even wanted to stay a little bit.

  But he can't stay, not to mention that there is someone he wants to see waiting for him in Heijiaohe.

  He still shoulders the burden of changing the fate of this world. The Duke Star bestowed by the goddess Nyx saved his life, and he has to repay this kindness no matter what the reason.

   If you want to change the world, you can only stand on the big stage of the Seven Towers Federation.

   "I will come back to see you often." Duke promised Princess Tiffany.

"If you don't come to see me, I'll go to the Seven Towers Federation to find you." Princess Tiffany tied her hair into a ponytail and changed into a knight costume again. Her graceful figure was outlined in a leather armor. The Duke Sage I kissed for the first time!"

Duke lightly kissed Princess Tiffany on the forehead, and then took a step back: "Remember the battle qi running route I taught you. You can practice "Duke's Leap" as soon as possible, and "Duke's Flying Feather" requires long-term exploration. Of course, with With your identity, it is not difficult to obtain these two blood contract secret books of fighting qi and martial arts."

   "What about my arcanist talent?" Princess Tiffany asked.

   "Let's go with fate."

  He can't say for sure about this kind of thing, even if it's an arcane master, otherwise the family established by the arcane master has already monopolized the class of arcane masters.

   But in fact, even those great nobles, trying their best, can only slightly improve the juniors and hope to be promoted to the Arcane Master. Most of the truly gifted arcane masters are often from the ordinary class, which can be regarded as an elusive spirituality.

  For example, of the eight 8-ring Huiyue Arcane tutors in the Seven Towers Federation, only one came from an old noble family, and the other seven all climbed up from the bottom.

  Either get the title of nobility by yourself, or respond to the policy and no longer canonize nobility.

   "I hope that when we meet again, I will already be an arcanist." Princess Tiffany raised her head and gave Duke a deep look.

  She is a smart person, knowing whether she can become an arcane mage is too critical to change her fate.

  Even though she has the title of the third princess of the Grand Duchy of Ice Shards, she still has to follow the iron rules of the arcane masters who rule the world.

  Even her father and mother, who are a king and queen, are still assiduously seeking the path of spiritual mysteries.

  Without the power of an arcanist, how can a country be in charge.

   "Yes, I believe you have this talent." Waving his hand, Duke turned and walked out of the waiting hall of the flight station.

   Outside, Celsas had already said goodbye to the Grand Duke and his wife.

  The guards of honor lined up on both sides, sending off Thursas and Duke with a grand ceremony—this is the highest level of national ceremony in the Grand Duchy of Smashed Ice, and even if they are just passing by, the Grand Duchy of Smashed Ice will treat them solemnly.

   "Duke, is the farewell over?" Thursas smiled, looked at Duke and Princess Tiffany, and walked over one after the other.

   "Yes, I have already said goodbye." Duke saluted the Grand Duke and his wife generously, "Thank you to the Grand Duke, Grand Duchess, and Princess Tiffany for their hospitality these days. I have caused you a lot of trouble, and I am really sorry."

   "There is no trouble, you, the most dazzling genius of the Seven Towers Federation, is our honor to come to our Grand Duchy of Ice Shards."

  Grand Duke Tinar smiled gently: "The branded ring you invented is really fascinating, Sage Duke, I believe that one day, sooner or later, you will change the direction of this world and expand a wider path for spiritual mysteries."

  As a great arcane mage, Grand Duke Tinar knows the value of the Ring of Branding very well.

  The Grand Duchess is also a great Austrian mage. She looks about 30 years old, gentle and beautiful, and her husband and wife said: "I hope you will leave a good impression in Xueshan City in the past few days."

  Duke took a look at Princess Tiffany, and he could see the shadows of many grand duchess couples from Princess Tiffany's face. She inherited the good looks of both parents.

   "I have a good time here. I have a good impression of Xueshan City and the Grand Duchy of Ice. If I have time, I will often come to bother you."

  The Grand Duchess smiled and said, "You are welcome anytime."

  The guard of honor played the music, and Duke followed Thursas and walked towards the warship "Looker" moored here.

   When they boarded the hatch, Duke and Thursas turned around and waved downward.

  His eyes looked at Princess Tiffany, who was also waving gently, with a reluctant look in her eyes.

  This is the situation.

  Duke suddenly felt something, and quickly ordered a staff member in the cabin door: "Bring me paper and pen."

   "Yes, Lord Duke." The staff hurriedly searched for pens and paper in the cabin.

  Cersas asked curiously: "What is this going to do?"

   "Write something."

"Haha, it's for that little girl Tiffany?" Celsus stroked his beard and smiled. Unforgettable happy hour…”

  Duke didn't answer.

When the staff brought the pen and paper, he quickly picked up the pen and wrote lines of poems in Bingwen on it: "I leave gently, just as I came lightly; I waved softly, like the clouds in the western sky... quietly I leave just as quietly as I came; with a flick of my sleeves I won't take a single cloud."

  The tip of the pen was brushed and written, and a song "Farewell to Cambridge", which he and Xiaoyi had carefully considered and re-written, came alive on the paper.

  Thersas remained silent, his peripheral vision was already on the paper.

  He has lived a long time, so he has naturally learned Bingwen, so he can understand this little poem, and he can't help thinking about it in his heart.

   "It's quite charming, and it's a good poem."

   On the square of the flight station, the Grand Duke and his wife brought Princess Tiffany, and they also looked up curiously at Duke who was writing something on paper.

  The Grand Duchess seemed to have guessed something, she turned her head and glanced at her little daughter with a smile.

  Princess Tiffany didn't notice her mother's gaze, but looked at Duke eagerly. She had a strong hunch that what Duke wrote on the paper was for herself.

soon.

  Duke, standing at the door of the battleship cabin, put down the pen in his hand, and quickly folded a piece of paper into a small plane.

   Lightly tapped Princess Tiffany with her finger, and then threw the paper airplane in her hand.

  The paper plane drew a circle in the air, and then, under the guidance of fighting spirit, it landed accurately in the hands of Princess Tiffany.

  Waving his hand, Duke followed Celsus into the cabin of the battleship without looking back.

   Woohoo!

  The whistle roared, and the warship Gazer slowly rose and headed southwest. Under the watchful eyes of the Grand Duke, his wife and Princess Tiffany, he left the Xueshan City Air Station.

   Wait until the battleship gets smaller.

  The Grand Duke and his wife turned around and left the flight station. Grand Duke Tinar looked at Princess Tiffany curiously: "Tiffany, what did Duke write to you?"

  Princess Tiffany carefully took apart the paper airplane.

   Immediately, I saw the title on the paper - "Farewell Xueshan—To Tiffany Glacier".

   "It's a poem." Princess Tiffany smiled happily, feeling that the emotion of parting had been diluted a lot, "He wrote me a poem."

   "Well, it's really romantic." Grand Duke Tinar joked, but there seemed to be some pantothenic hostility in his tone.

  The Grand Duchess cast a reproachful glance at her husband, and then asked with a smile, "Tiffany, would you mind thinking about it, and let me and your father listen to it too?"

   "Yeah." Tiffany looked up at the battleship that had disappeared into the sky, bowed her head and read the poem on the paper.

"...in the ice quilt of the snow shirt, I am willing to be a jerboa! The ball on the forest hill is not a pine cone, but the moon in the sky... a boat full of starlight, singing in the colorful starlight... melting ice Silence for me, silence is the snow shirt of this morning!"

   Quietly I left...

  Princess Tiffany, finished reading this little poem sweetly.

   Grand Duke Tinar was noncommittal about this, and even the corner of his mouth twitched, showing a flash of disdain.

The Grand Duchess smiled and sighed: "What a lucky little girl, Tiffany! It's such an excellent, romantic poem to have someone write it for you. I think, if you want, soon this poem will become a bard." A must for poets.”

   "Farewell to Cambridge Again" is definitely a classic modern poem, although Duke has filled in a lot of new words, which may damage its details.

  But with Xiaoyi helping him read between the lines, he still retained the overall flavor after all.

   "I, I don't know, I haven't decided yet." Princess Tiffany held the paper in her palm, with a youthful smile on her face.

   "It's just a poem..." Grand Duke Tinar just started.

   She was stared at by the Grand Duchess, she stared back, and simply rode on a spirit horse and left the flight station one step ahead.

  The Grand Duchess walked back with her youngest daughter.

"I held several salons before, and many wives were discussing "Romeo and Juliet", and discussing Duke's literary attainments by the way, and they all recognized that he can become a great writer. It's a pity that his works are too few, and he is also a genius Arcane masters may not be able to delve into this kind of path."

  The Grand Duchess said with emotion: "Sure enough, a little poem written by hand is so beautiful and romantic."

   "Yes, he is really... very dazzling." Princess Tiffany nodded approvingly.

  Although the time of acquaintance was short, she was deeply intoxicated by this period of time, but the spiritual connection, everything came suddenly and fiercely.

  Some people live a whole life, but only live one day.

  Some people live a day, but live a lifetime.

   "It seems that Duke left you with a deep feeling." The Grand Duchess said with a smile.

   "Mother, do you think there will be a follow-up story between me and Duke?" Although Princess Tiffany was asking, she had already given the answer with her eyes full.

  Looking at the expectant eyes of the little daughter, she gave an affirmative answer: "Why not, as long as you think about it, the story will have a follow-up."

  But when you turn around.

  The Grand Duchess showed a bitter smile. There are so many stories in the world, but there are a few stories that really have an ending.

  But she will not break her daughter's expectations for the future. Some stories will be regretted after experiencing, but even if you regret it a hundred times, you will still go through it.

this is life.

  …

   "I arrived at the scene about a minute after you rushed out of the moonlight cage." Thursas narrated calmly.

  Duke listened carefully.

"When I arrived, the Bibo was safe and sound, and your little lovers were all alive, but they were crying." Thursas frowned, "But Miguel had already escaped, and someone interfered. Spiritual trajectory, I can't find where it is going to escape."

   "Someone interfered with the spiritual trajectory?" Duke frowned deeply.

   "It may be a human, or it may be a fallen devil... The fallen devil is more cunning than you think. It seems to have lost its mind, but in fact it still retains the wisdom before the fall."

   "If it's a person, Sir Thursas, who will help Miguel, or in other words, who will target me?"

"It's not certain yet. Speaking of it, your attack this time has exposed too many problems within the Federation. Even among our Huiyue Arcane instructors, we have become suspicious of each other." Celsas sighed, " Some people have already doubted the Lord Speaker."

   "Lord Lord Speaker?"

   "Miguel has fallen, and the Lord Speaker may not be far away. This time, someone has taken action to interfere with the spiritual trajectory. I have also suspected the Lord Speaker, but no evidence has been found so far."

After a pause, Thursas added: "Even if Lord Chancellor made a move, it was definitely not his intention. You also know his situation. After failing to hit the 9th ring, his mind went from good to bad. I'm afraid some Evil thoughts, just when he was confused, took advantage of the void."

   "I can understand, but... if this continues, everyone will be in danger." Duke frowned, "At least I don't dare to stay in the Holy City of Alchemy."

"Hey, this is also the tricky part of the matter. The Lord Speaker is under our noses, and he can respond in time. If he is allowed to retreat, if he really falls, the danger will be even greater... After all, he has hit the 9th ring, and the fall After the Fallen Demon, there may not be no further opportunities."

  Duke said in a deep voice, "It's too dangerous!"

   "Don't worry too much. The Lord Speaker understands your own situation and never leaves our field of vision. When it is necessary, I believe that the Lord Speaker would rather commit suicide than wait for degeneration."

   After chatting with the Speaker, Duke suddenly asked: "Lord Thursas, besides the Lord Speaker, who else is suspected, please give me a list, and I will carefully avoid them!"

Once bitten, twice shy.

  If it weren't for the Duke Star bestowed by the goddess Nyx, he would have been murdered by the fallen demon Miguel long ago, so this matter is of great importance.

   "Can't give it."

   "Can't give it?"

"It's true that I can't give it. I'm not prevaricating you. It's hard for me to clear up your suspicions about your attack, let alone other people." Thursas shook his head, "But don't worry, the meeting of stars has made a decision, and we will deal with it one by one. Investigate the past of all the stars and clear everyone's suspicions."

  Duke sighed: "I'm very worried now. Even if I don't go to the Holy City of Alfa and stay in Cuihai City, I may not be safe."

"Don't worry, you'll be safe this time." Thursas said with a smile, "We've already made a decision that every Faint Moon Arcane Instructor will give you a Moonlight Prison, so that even if you encounter danger again, Directly activate multiple moonlight field protections, I believe it will be difficult to break even if Lord Chancellor takes action himself."

Immediately afterwards, he added: "In order to prevent someone from stealing the post, we will hand it to you in person when we arrive at the Holy City of Alfa... But you have to wait for my moonlight cage. After the last one was broken, a new one It's not finished yet."

  Moonlight Cage is the instructor of Huiyue Arcana, which is condensed with its own strength, and cannot be mass-produced, and the production cycle is also long.

   "I understand, thank you adults for caring for me!" Duke happily accepted.

  No one would have too much of this kind of good thing, and with so many moonlight cages to protect the body, it will definitely last for a long time when encountering a fallen demon.

and.

  Even if there is a Huiyue arcane instructor who secretly hides a back door, don't worry, after all, there are other seven moonlight cages for normal protection.

Thursas patted Duke on the shoulder and sighed: "You are the future of the Seven Towers Federation, the future of spiritual mysteries, and even the future of all mankind. In any case, we old guys must guarantee you Absolutely safe."

  Duke was moved: "Thank you for your love!"

  The two chatted about some topics, including the development of the Seven Towers Federation during this period. The brand ring technology has been fully promoted, and the development momentum is very fierce.

   "So, I'm not surprised that you were promoted to the 3rd Ring Arcane Mage." Thursas laughed.

  Duke thought for a while, and suddenly asked: "My lord, you don't seem to be curious about how I escaped from the persecution of the fallen demon Miguel?"

"How can you not be curious, but I won't ask." Thursas said solemnly, "Our meeting of stars has unanimously decided not to explore the method for you to escape the fallen demon, and you should not tell anyone about it. It will not threaten your safety."

   "Is it like this, I understand." Duke nodded.

  He had already found an excuse, but he didn't expect that even without an excuse, the meeting of stars took the initiative to keep his secret.

   Of course, this is also good, eliminating the energy required to lie.

   After all, telling a lie requires countless lies to make up for this lie.

  Facing the teacher of the arcane law, he really didn't feel that his lies would surely fool the teacher of the arcane law.

"In addition, regarding your attack by the Fallen Demon, the Star Conference has decided to block the news, so the people don't know that you have been missing for a while before. I have also discussed with Grand Duke Tinar about the news that you were in trouble in the Grand Duchy of Ice Shards. announced to the public."

  The Fallen Demon is just a legend among the people. Except for the arcanist class, few people know that the Fallen Demon still exists.

  Duke understands the Seven Towers Federation's practice of blocking news.

  If even a genius arcanist like Duke was attacked by the Fallen Demon, the people might panic.

   "My lord." Duke asked, "Where can Miguel, the fallen demon, escape to? It's nothing more than the spiritual spring of High River City. Won't the Conference of the Stars track it down?"

"Of course I will investigate, but I can't find out." Celsus shook his head, "The fallen demon is already a spiritual slave, and does not have the common sense of a normal creature. It may hide in the belly of a fish, or hide in the bottom of a tree. In the trunk, there is really no way to find it."

   "So can the Fallen Demon be big or small?" Duke thought of the Fallen Demon Miguel he had encountered before, whose body was tens of meters high.

  Thersas's eyes were deep: "It can be big or small, it can be visible or hidden."

  …

   A few days later, the warship Gazer arrived at the Holy City of Alfa.

  Duke didn't show up in public, but under the leadership of Thursas, he visited several Huiyue Arcane instructors one by one, and got a Moonlight Cage Jade Pendant from each of them.

  A total of seven pieces.

  Adding the one owed by Thursas, it is eight.

   "Eight layers of defense, I don't believe that the Sinking Demon can break through!" Stringing the moonlight cage jade pendant on his waist, Duke's sense of security immediately doubled.

   period.

  Duke was also invited by Andre Evening Primrose, the chairman of the United Supreme Tower Standing Conference, to visit his Crystal Palace.

   Celsus is in charge of escorting to prevent any accidents.

   After all, the speaker who failed to hit the 9th ring has become the most likely to fall among the stars.

  The banquet was very small, with only one table, and less than ten people sat.

   This is a family feast, and half of them are Andre’s wives and concubines—the Seven Towers Federation is strictly monogamous, but the system is the system, and the reality is the reality.

   "Duke, I would like to offer you a toast." Andre had white beard and hair, and his mental state was not very good. "This time you have an accident, it is the negligence of our council."

   "Lord Speaker, you are too serious." Duke drank a glass of wine, "I am safe and sound now, and this is the end of the matter, please don't worry about it."

   "I'm getting old, and time is running out. I just hope that you young people can grow up quickly and shoulder the burden of spiritual mysteries."

"I have been trying."

   "It's good to work hard, fight while you are young, so that it will not be in vain..." As he spoke, Andre's eyes suddenly became cloudy, and his hands trembled, unable to hold the wine glass.

  Seeing that the wine glass is about to slip.

  A concubine who served him to eat and drink immediately reached out to hold Andre's arm, and then took the wine glass.

Andre didn't know which continuation wife, a gray-haired grandmother, immediately smoothed things over and said: "My master is a little tired, Mr. Thursas, please treat Duke well, and we will help the master first." Go back to your room and rest."

   "Sister-in-law can go on her own." Thursas got up, "Duke and I have eaten and drank well, and it's time to leave."

   "The hospitality is not good, please forgive me." The old lady apologized repeatedly.

  The wives and concubines helped Andre Evening Primrose leave together, and Celsus also took Duke and left Andre's Crystal Palace.

   On the way back, Thursas was in a heavy heart.

Youyou sighed: "How difficult is the road to spiritual mysteries. The ancestors of the Seven Towers Federation established the country for more than 3,000 years. Countless ancestors fumbled and reached the current height of the 8th ring. Behind this, how many ancestors got lost in the process of exploration?" Own."

  He looked up at the sky, the night sky was full of stars.

Fu sighed again: "I am afraid that in the near future, there will be another star that will return to the starry sky and night... I think back in the past, when I was only a teenager, I first arrived in the Holy City of Arcane. At that time, Lord Andre was already in the Holy City of Arcane. The pride of heaven..."

   Hundreds of years passed by in a hurry.

  Now Thursas is also full of silver hair: "Corruption, Mr. Andre often talks about corruption, and the fact is the same. We are all corrupt people, and we are about to perish!"

  Duke silently listened to Thursas's emotion.

  He was a little speechless in his heart.

   Thursus looks very old, and he is very old.

  But the lifespan of an 8-ring Huiyue arcane teacher is generally around 450 years old, and Thursas is still nearly a hundred years away from dying of old age. A baby that has been born, desperately trying to survive, may not be able to die later than him.

   "My lord still has a long time to lead the Seven Towers Federation to a higher glory." Duke said, "The junior still needs you, my lord, to protect and protect you all the way."

"Ha ha!"

  Thersas liked to hear this kind of talk, and he stroked his beard and smiled: "Indeed, if I don't work hard to watch you young people grow up, how can I rest assured that the future will be passed on to you!"

   After a night.

  On May 25th, in the morning light, Duke set off in the direction of Cuihai City aboard Thursas's Watcher warship.

  He came to the Holy City of Offa quietly, and left quietly.

  After going through a lot of things, he is quite eager to return to his heart. Although Heijiaohe is barren, it is indeed a land for him to support him. Although Cuihai City is immature, it has entrusted him with a lot of hard work.

   "I can't control the power of the Seven Towers Federation, so I will return to Cuihai City first and grasp the power of Cuihai City!"

  The strength is weak, even the Sinking Demon can't handle it, so it's really not suitable to take power in the Holy City of Arcana.

  However, you can practice in advance, and Cuihai City is the best practice work.

   "Well, there's Kiria, waiting for me... Vivian, Mu Lali, Mu Lashan..." Standing at the porthole looking at the ground, scenes of figures flashed in Duke's mind.

   It has been more than six years since he traveled, and there are already people in this land who have formed a close bond with him.

   Hometown.

   It is no longer the earth that can only be touched in dreams. A small piece of the Manghuang Continent, called the Heijiao River area, is also his hometown.

   "I'm back, homecoming again!"

   Looking for tickets~
