Fairy’s Box

Kettering, temporary office in the City of London.

Below the side window, a neatly-clothed, grey-bearded scholar mage crouched on the desk, observed the inscription on the golden gun up and down with a magnifying glass, and stood up from time to time to read the notes he brought.

The black-haired knight sat patiently beside him, nursing his holy sword while waiting for the other party's examination result.

"Lord Count..."

After the minute of the wall clock went three steps, the scholar wiped a forehead with a handkerchief, and said in a lack of confidence: "The era of this weapon is too old, I only know some of the symbols of the coat of arms, I'm really sorry... "

"It's ok!"

Yale's spirit suddenly recovered, and he hurriedly filled a cup of black tea and handed it over:

"Just tell me what you know."

"Ashamed."

The scholar mage took the black tea cautiously, took a sip, then pointed at the round-shaped head of the golden spear, and said seriously:

"This is the symbol of the Padler epic, the **** of light and sun, revered by the original Padlers as a giver of vitality. He inspires the understanding of mortals, calls the wind and calls the storm, and rules over everything that is moving and still, even Other gods. He himself operates according to fixed laws, and he binds the heaven and the earth to make it permanent."

"Where's the name?" the black-haired knight looked at him and asked.

"Lost..."

The other party also had an expression of regret, put down the cup in his hand, shook his head and said:

"If I hadn't participated in the completion and arrangement of Paderler's epics several times, I would not have known that there were ancient gods in the Far East."

"Sorry for interrupting you, please continue." Yale glanced at the top of the Golden Spear and sighed silently.

The scholar mage folded his shoulders in a relaxed manner, pointed to the part of the gun body, and explained in detail:

"These lines of inscriptions obviously refer to the thunder and the king of the gods among the Padler gods. He has the thunder light that can shatter everything, and he is also the leader of the gods. However, the strange thing is inferred from the historical records. The king of the gods does not seem to have a high status among the Padres."

"..." The black-haired knight nodded lightly, motioning for the other party to continue.

"And on the opposite side of this gun, the wheel goes to this part of the gun body."

He struggled to turn the golden spear upside down, pointed to the upper part of the spear body, and said with a hesitant expression:

"These four slender inscriptions, in the shape of arms, point to the four directions, and in the Padler epic, are symbols of the Four-Faced God, one of the creators of the gods and of all things. The status is very strange, he is clearly the creator of humanity and order, but there is a general lack of worship..."

Frowning and pausing for a while, the scholar mage turned his gaze to Yalei, and said with a face full of embarrassment:

"The origin of this spear can be traced back to the three dead Padres. The potential power must be extraordinary. Unfortunately, my knowledge is still too thin to help you more."

"It's ok."

The black-haired knight waved his hand in disbelief, and said calmly, "For so long, you are the only scholar who can decipher the origin of the golden spear."

After politely offering the gift and sending the other party to the carriage, Yalei returned to the inside of the windmill. He picked up the golden spear and turned it around a few times, and planned to take it to the field to practice swordsmanship.

"Good news!"

Nicole broke in from the front door with a strange cry all the way, her face full of excitement, she stamped her feet and said, "The people from the Canary Consortium intend to invest in Celtic's iron ore!"

"so what?"

The black-haired knight expressed incomprehension at her fuss.

"The guest of honor of the Canary Consortium is Mr. Lars, the first swordsman master of the empire!" The female knight held her hands in front of her chest, her eyes twinkling with gold stars, and she said with admiration on her face.

"Lars is really famous."

Yale nodded understandingly, then looked at her with contempt:

"But what does it have to do with us?"

"Of course it does!"

Nicole also raised the index finger of her right hand with a look of contempt, and said word by word:

"He will come too!"

"It's really good news!"

The black-haired knight immediately raised his eyebrows, weighed the sword in his hand, and said with a smile: "Since there is such a good opportunity, I can't miss it."

...

South barren swamp, deep rainforest.

The aquatic horse stepped lightly and silently on the water, walking slowly through the sea of ​​trees. Nancy looked up at the canopy dozens of yards above her head, carefully looking at the orange light sources, as if she wanted to see them clearly. looks like.

These lighthouse-tall trees rise from the river water, like spears piercing the sky, and on their meandering vines grow gleaming fruit, which is the source of those orange-yellow rays.

"Those glowing fruits are the embryonic form of the forest fairies, but only a hundred fruits have a chance to give birth to one. When the fruits are ripe and broken, new forest fairies will fall from the branches and set foot on the earth of this world. They Babies that look like humans when they are first born, they can become adults after three hundred years of life, they are a type of high-level fairies, and they are born with the ability to manipulate plants...under the command of His Majesty Figores."

Kasha spoke softly in her ear with a thin but clear voice.

"A hundred of them have a chance to give birth to a forest fairy, so what will happen to the other fruits?" the girl asked curiously.

Without waiting for Kasha to respond, with a dull puff sound, a fruit grew to maturity in the sea of ​​​​lights shining above their heads and fell straight into the water.

boom--!

A huge dark green tentacle drilled out from the bottom of the water, caught the fruit precisely, squeezed it into a splash of orange juice in an instant, and greedily sucked the liquid with the sucker on the skin.

"Food for the rainforest."

The spring water fairy replied lightly.

"..."

Nancy's face paled for a while, and she held back for a long time before she vomited.

"Where did we find that scholar?"

After a long time, the girl asked weakly.

"Sometimes, I mean sometimes, not every unhatched forest fruit perishes, maybe there are some very lucky ones who can hide somewhere on the bottom of the water and wait quietly for an opportunity. Three hundred years later , they can also form wisdom and can manipulate a certain force of nature, if a human can get this fruit and take it, no matter how old it is at the moment, it can be restored to a baby immediately."

"I wouldn't eat this kind of fruit even if I starved to death!" Nancy was furious in her heart.

Kasha chuckled twice in her heart, and then said softly:

"If they are lucky enough to spend a thousand years, they can move freely and hide in the trees at any time. The scholar we are looking for is the fairy of the fruit of the forest."
