Looking Forward to Another World

Chapter 470 Magic and Magic

Will be the queen, will be the goblin knight.

Although he uttered such bold words, Li Ge obviously couldn't go to Camelot now.

Still the same sentence, he just arrived here, and he hasn't even figured out the terrain of the Fairy Kingdom of Britain. Even if he wants to use the [Portal] to go to Camelot, he can't do it. Another country goblin, with limited knowledge of the outside world, Li Ge could only temporarily make a plan.

"Rest for the night first, and then go to the nearest city tomorrow to resupply."

Unlike fairies who don't need to eat, Li Ge still needs to replenish. Although this problem can be solved with magic, he still wants to know the terrain of the fairy kingdom of Britain. It is best to have a map, otherwise the connected actions There will be problems.

Therefore, first find a nearby city, where you can obtain the materials and information you want, which has become the most important goal.

Not only did Arturia have no objection to this, she even expressed it on the spot.

"I'm with you too!"

Obviously, this fairy girl is a little bit dependent on Li Ge, at least for the time being, she definitely won't want to act alone.

"Then let's rest here for the night."

After making a decision, Li Ge found an open space without rocks and other shelters, and activated his magic here.

"[Creation Fortress]."

When the magic was activated, the ground shook.

"Boom...!"

Accompanied by the sound and vibration of the ground, a thick giant tower rose from the ground.

It was a thick double door with countless spikes growing on the wall, and on the highest point was a statue of a demon looking at all directions. It was at least 30 meters high, like a fortress, and also like a towering tree Same tower.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah—!?"

Seeing the towering giant tower suddenly rising in front of her eyes, Artoria was frightened and yelled out of control.

"W-What is this...!?"

The legendary savior yelled very impolitely, almost deafening the ears of the instigator beside him.

"What's the name of the ghost?" Li Ge said rather dissatisfied: "Isn't it just using a magic trick? As for that?"

But hearing Li Ge's words, Arturia not only did not let go, but became incoherent instead.

"Magic? You call this magic?" Artoria yelled, "I never knew such magic existed!"

In this world, magic and magic are two completely different concepts.

Magic refers to phenomena that go beyond common sense, and are man-made supernatural powers that reproduce miracles.

In short, this is the magic of this world, the mystery that can be learned, practiced, exercised and improved artificially.

However, this world also has the concept of magic, and it is distinguished from magic.

Although magic is also a kind of supernatural power, in this world, if a phenomenon can be realized through technological means, it will only be called magic, not magic.

Take the magic mastered by Li Ge as an example. The [Fireball] he uses more often is a third-tier area attack magic. But in the final analysis, it is a kind of large-scale flames that are set to burn within a certain range. the power of things.

The same thing can be done with technology mastered by humans, right?

Under such circumstances, the [Fireball] used by Li Ge would be regarded as magic in this world, not magic.

In contrast, those phenomena that are impossible to achieve with science and technology, in this world, are the so-called magic.

For example, [Time Stop], the magic that can stop the flow of time in the world, with human science and technology, it is currently impossible to do the same thing anyway.

So [Time Stop] can be called magic in this world, because it is a phenomenon that science and technology cannot achieve for the time being.

When a phenomenon can be realized with certainty only by spending time and money, no matter how difficult the means of realizing it are, the supernatural power that can cause the same phenomenon will not be regarded as magic, but will only become magic.

Such supernatural powers become magic only if human civilization cannot achieve the phenomenon anyway.

Therefore, with the advancement of science and technology, more and more things can be done by human hands, and the amount of magic has become less and less, resulting in an extremely large amount of magic that still remains in this era. They are so rare that they can be counted on the palm of one hand.

With this in mind, Li Ge called the magic he used magic, in order for Artoria to understand it quickly.

By the way, in this world, people who use magic are usually called magicians, and people who use magic are usually called magicians.

Thanks to this, Li Ge can no longer claim to be a magician in this world. Either he calls himself a magician or a magician, which is the easiest way for people to understand.

However, Mingming Lige was already so apt, Artoria still looked frightened.

no way.

Arturia had never heard of the magic of creating a giant tower with every gesture.

The fairies who are born with mystery may be able to do it with their own strength, but please forgive Artoria, who is only a fledgling country fairy at present, and she has seen magic of this scale before.

If Artoria is only a fairy, it's okay to say, the problem is that she also practiced magic.

As a fairy who was born with a difference, Arturia can become stronger by training herself since she was a child and practicing magic under the guidance of "good-hearted people".

Therefore, Arturia can also use magic.

It was precisely because of being able to use magic that Artoria felt how amazing what Li Ge had done now was.

It's a pity that Li Ge couldn't understand this feeling.

"Don't worry, you can do things that I can't do in the future, and I might be surprised by that time."

Li Ge said such words indifferently.

"Come on, let's go in."

Saying that, Li Ge took the lead and walked towards the giant tower.

"I……"

Seeing this, Arturia stood there for a long time, and then followed Li Ge with a face of disbelief, and walked towards the high tower.

[Create Fortress], as the name suggests, this is the magic used to create fortress-type structures. It is the same as [High-level Item Creation] and other magics, and they all belong to the creation-type magic.

This magic ranks at the tenth level. Once used, a huge thick tower will appear at a suitable location selected by the caster, which can be used for rest or as a stronghold to resist enemy attacks.

Since this tower is called a fortress, its defense power is naturally extremely high. Even if it uses the same tenth-rank attack magic to carry out repeated bombings, it can definitely resist it for a period of time.

In "YGGDRASIL", some players even tried to use super magic to attack this kind of fortress. It turned out that, except for the super magic specially used to destroy buildings, pure attack super magic cannot be used in one shot. Break this kind of fortress.

Because of this, many players like to use this magic to make temporary strongholds when they are in the wild. However, if they want to maintain this fortress, they must consume magic power all the time. If they are facing a battle situation, few people will choose Maintaining such a stronghold has kept him in a state of insufficient magic power.

Li Ge used it without any scruples.

He has already experimented that the magic power used to maintain the fortress can be replenished instantly by the automatic recovery of "Jing Healing".

In other words, even if the fortress is maintained, Li Ge's magic power will not be consumed, and it will recover immediately after being consumed.

That being the case, Li Ge naturally wouldn't have any scruples, and he could use it however he wanted.

"Boom..."

The steel door of the tower opened automatically when Li Ge approached, exposing the internal structure to Li Ge and Artoria.

After entering the giant tower from the gate, the first thing that catches the eye is a spacious hall.

There is a double door on the opposite side of the hall. After entering, there is a passage. At the end of the passage, there is another double door. The magic lights of [Eternal Light] are lit all around, making people walk very smoothly.

And after the door at the end of the passage was opened, blinding light immediately shone from behind the door, hitting Li Ge and Artoria.

Li Ge and Artoria walked in together and came to a circular hall.

There are white floors, high ceilings, and a spiral staircase in the center leading to the upper floor. The interior space has obviously been expanded, and it is much more spacious than it looks from the outside.

"I, shall we rest here tonight?"

Looking at this ultra-luxury hall like a nobleman's mansion, Artoria stammered.

There are all kinds of furniture in the hall, including sofas, tables and chairs, and even a tea cart. Not to mention, it really looks like a nobleman's mansion.

Especially on the upper floor leading to the spiral staircase, even from Artoria's perspective, you can see the suite-like doors of a high-end hotel, which makes people easily think that this door What kind of luxurious room is there behind.

"That's right, we'll rest here tonight." Li Ge pointed to those rooms, and said, "You can choose any of those rooms."

Hearing this, Arturia retreated subconsciously.

"No, no, no, no! I don't live there!" Artoria shook her head frantically, and shouted, "I'm definitely not used to that kind of place!"

After being told by Arturia, Li Ge also discovered the problem.

To put it bluntly, no matter how extraordinary Artoria's background is, in the sixteen years of her life before that, she hadn't had a good life.

She lived in a stable and was treated like a horse. The goblins in Tintagel only raised her as a horse. How could she have lived in such a good place?

For Artoria like this, if there was a place where she would not feel cold in winter, and would not lose two toes from freezing like in the past, then that place would be good.

Now, Li Ge let her live in such a luxurious place, as a country goblin with worse treatment and living conditions than others, Artoria would feel terrified because of this, that was inevitable.

"I'll just find a corner here to stay!" Arturia insisted, "For example, this place is very good!"

Arturia trotted directly to the dark place of the hall, nestled in the corner of the wall and did not move.

That appearance, very much like a social terrorist, even more like an autistic patient.

"...Are you sure you want to stay in this kind of place?"

Li Ge had a strange expression on his face.

"Sure!" Arturia nodded vigorously, and said, "Compared to where I used to live, even this kind of corner is heaven!"

Because of being too emotional, Artoria even exposed her unknown life treatment.

In normal times, Artoria would not say such things casually.

Li Ge really wanted to advise Artoria a few words, but seeing Artoria's fearful expression, Li Ge knew that no matter how much he said, it might be useless.

This has suddenly increased the treatment from living in stables and dungeons to living in mansions and presidential suites, and everyone will feel uncomfortable.

"It's better to give her a process of adaptation."

Li Ge thought about it and finally made a decision.

"Since you don't live in the room, then I won't either." Li Ge came to the sofa, sat down, and said, "I'll sleep on the sofa tonight."

"How can this work?" Arturia was stunned, and said quickly: "This is your place, you should live in the room!"

"The rationale is that the guests can sleep in the corner of the hall, while my host can sleep on a comfortable bed. I'm sorry, but I can't do it." Li Ge shrugged at Artoria, Said: "Unless you also live in the room."

"I can't do this!" Artoria was about to cry, and said aggrievedly: "Let a country goblin like me live in such a luxurious room, I will definitely not be able to sleep tonight!"

"Then don't stop me." Li Ge said involuntarily, "If you stop me again, I'll just squat in a corner like you, okay?"

Artoria, who could tell that this was Li Ge's truth, couldn't even utter a word.

"Okay, go to sleep." Li Ge smiled at Artoria like this, and said, "So many things happened today, no matter how energetic you are, you must be tired, right?"

"Go to sleep."

"When you wake up, it's all over."

Leaving such words behind, Li Ge lay down first, slept on the sofa, and closed his eyes.

"Um... you really don't want to go in the room...?"

Artoria made a weak voice in the corner, as if she still wanted to persuade Li Ge to go to the room.

It's a pity that Li Ge didn't say a word, as if he had fallen asleep, the rhythm of breathing and chest rising and falling became even.

Arturia stared at Li Ge like this for a while, and she didn't give up until she confirmed that Li Ge had really fallen asleep, not just pretending to be asleep.

"What a weirdo..."

With such an evaluation, Arturia seemed to have lost all strength, and sat slumped in the corner.

The floor is not cold at all, and the wall behind him also has a faint sense of warmth, which makes one wonder if some kind of magic has been applied to the floor and wall here to make it so warm.

Feeling this kind of warmth that she never had in the residence before, Artoria's heart also gradually relaxed.

With this relaxation, all kinds of things that happened today flooded into her mind.

He was locked in a dungeon and rescued again.

Get to know Li Ge, and say goodbye to Eckert.

Tintagel caught in the sea of flames...Villages fighting each other...Woodworth's execution squad...The fierce battle between Rieger and Woodworthy...The sneak attack of the Fang Clan goblins...Riger's rescue... ...

These pictures and scenes, scenes after scenes, are constantly reappearing in Artoria's mind.

"well……"

The mood was extremely complicated, and Artoria, who couldn't tell whether it was sadness or grief, let out a long sigh.

"The Son of Prophecy...?"

Artoria looked at herself nestled in the corner and laughed at herself.

"It's really not like that."

After speaking, Arturia closed her eyes.

Perhaps it was because there were so many things that happened today, Artoria, whose head was full of distracting thoughts, soon felt sleepy.

Not long after, Arturia fell asleep.

…………

"——"

the wind.

Very rough wind.

It's not that kind of gentle breeze, let alone that kind of comfortable spring breeze, but a stormy wind that seems to be able to blow people away and shred the consciousness.

Artoria, who came back to her senses, found that at this very moment, she was in this storm-like storm, and was blown tremblingly and bruised all over.

This is something Artoria is very familiar with... a malicious storm!

"It's this scene again..."

Artoria, who was in the storm, let out a small voice.

That seemed to be crying.

That seemed to be moaning.

The familiar vicious storm appeared in her sleep, tormenting her, crushing her, making her want to cry out.

But this is also commonplace.

———“The world is a storm of malice”.

This has always been Artoria's cognition.

Every time other people's malice attacked her, she would be like this, seeing the terrible storm and being tortured mentally.

Countless times I wanted to cry, but I held back.

Countless times I wanted to shout, but stopped again.
