On the Seven Towers

On the sea several nautical miles away from the shipyard, the appearance of the continent has turned into a line close to the sea level in the distance.

The setting sun has approached the sea level, and the dark sea surface is filled with sparkling waves.

Xiao Chen leaned on the side of the Xingtian and looked at the direction of the setting sun. He said to Luo Ling beside him: "Actually, there is no need for us to go together."

"What? Do you think I'm not strong enough?" Luo Ling stood on the railing, the wind blowing up her hair, "Are you feeling a little bored after having to look at me every day in two worlds for the next few months?"

"How can it be! How much time have we spent together in the past three years here? Even in that world, you have been separated from me for a lot of time because of overseas exchanges." Xiao Chen's expression became a little heavy, "This If you go exploring the Seven Towers for the first time, you may encounter many unpredictable dangers. I don’t think you should come together.”

Unexpectedly, what she got in exchange was Luo Ling's sarcastic tone: "Xiao Chen. I thought you wouldn't say such petty words."

"Why is Xiaojiazi so angry?"

Luo Ling smoothed her hair: "I know you are worried about my safety, but at this time, everyone should have the consciousness of sacrifice. The death of a person is certainly terrible, but the destruction of a civilization is not more terrible. Is it something? Just like when a body dies, how long can the cells in the body survive? With the strength of you and me, we will eventually fight to the end in front of the God of Nature. Even if one takes the first step now, it will be the other. What’s wrong with being a stepping stone to victory?”

When Xiao Chen heard her words, he had to praise: "You are really enlightened."

Luo Ling lay on the railing, looking at the sunset in the distance and said: "I think human beings are very magical creatures. From a normal point of view, most of them are ordinary or even mediocre. But when a crisis comes, When someone needs to stand up and do something, there will always be some people who do things that he could never imagine.

This world pushes us and changes us in this way. At least in the past, I couldn't imagine myself talking about my life and death with you so easily. I don’t feel that I am the one who should stand up and stop the crisis from coming.

At that time, I just wanted to be a peaceful little urban woman, but... now, I have mastered such power, even when I myself represent a group of people, how can I retreat behind and act like What about a weakling?

Looking back now, I actually started to change a long time ago.

A strong person becomes a strong person because he has the consciousness of being a strong person. rather than the other way around. Since I have the ability to get here, I should continue to walk in the front, otherwise how can I be worthy of the original intention when I gained the strength? "

Of course Xiao Chen knew that Luo Ling had always been a strong person, and her resilience was often stronger than his own, but it was the first time he heard her express her thoughts so clearly, and he suddenly felt that his tongue was stuck because of this. Luo Ling was so beautiful at that time that he actually forgot to speak.

However, the sunset was also beautiful, so Luo Ling did not notice Xiao Chen's expression, but looked in the direction of the sunset and continued: "Actually, I also think that the two of us are indeed the ones who should take the risk the most. Now we and another The two worlds are completely integrated. Our spirit and consciousness span the two worlds at the same time. If we really encounter misfortune, we should be able to live well in the other world. It’s just an extra life.”

"In that case, in this world and in the eyes of others, we will still disappear. We will still be separated from them forever, and we will never see them again." Xiao Chen said.

"However, we will remember them. We still retain our own memories, emotions and experiences, and even that strong mental power, which is much cheaper than the death of others." Luo Ling said, " If it were Ye Zi, Mao Kai, or other friends who sacrificed themselves, I would rather sacrifice myself."

Xiao Chen asked seriously: "What should I do if I suddenly feel proud?"

"What?"

"My girlfriend is actually a big hero."

"Don't worry. Whenever you are in trouble, I will step on the colorful clouds to save you."

"Thanks to the heroine for saving me, Xiaosheng has no choice but to give me my life."

"Oh?" Luo Ling smiled strangely, her eyes swept over the railing, and the edge of the ship's side covered with metal skin made a creaking sound, and a slender piece of alloy was torn apart with her burst of mental power. down. The alloy piece was floating in the air. Luo Ling stretched out her finger, and a cluster of flames jumped out from her fingers and wrapped around the alloy piece. The flames released by Luo Ling's magic were very hot, and soon the iron pieces were melted into bright red liquid, floating in the air in front of them.

"What are you doing? You are destroying the battleship I worked so hard to build." Xiao Chen asked confused.

"This is the free-hand alchemy that Morey and I learned. Although it consumes energy, it can create some small things out of thin air." Luo Ling said as she stretched out a hand and began to gesture at the metal liquid in the distance. As she moved, the metal liquid began to roll, and impurities were continuously thrown out of the metal liquid. It took her about five minutes to make the metal liquid purer. Then the liquid began to slosh between her fingers, and finally turned into a circle, and then slowly solidified. She summoned a ball of water, which cooled and cleaned the circle, which turned out to be a silver ring.

The ring was very plain, with streamlined lines on it, like a coil of wire, and no other decoration.

Luo Ling reached out and took the ring, then pulled Xiao Chen's hand over, put it on his middle finger, and said, "Okay, now you, little scholar, are mine."

Xiao Chen was stunned. Although the two had been together in two worlds as boyfriend and girlfriend for several years. However, no matter which world they were in, they had too many things to do. In this world, they were all important people in charge of one side's affairs, and in addition to their normal work in the earth world, they also had to spend a lot of time looking up information for this world and consulting experts, not to mention that marriage also involved the parents of both parties. So they even put their engagement on hold.

And now, has he been proposed to? Why does he feel like he is being dominated by someone?

He and Luo Ling looked at each other and saw too many things in each other's eyes. He instantly understood the other's determination and will, and also noticed her worries and fears in her heart.

Xiao Chen took off the ring and used his mental power as a knife to cut the ring in half horizontally, turning it into two rings. He took one back to his hand and pressed the other one to make it smaller and put it on Luo Ling's middle finger.

"I didn't expect that you would get there first, but it's not too late. You are mine too."
