This is a pine tree...or should I say "it should be a pine tree". When something that is so familiar in daily life that there is no misunderstanding is magnified to a bizarre scale a thousand times, that person's judgment There would be a problem. Jonah climbed up the wall-wide trunk of this tree for twenty minutes (the diameter of the trunk could be seen in front of him from two thousand yards away). But when he walked under the tree, he found that the diameter of the trunk could be seen with the naked eye. There is no bend in the trunk at all. It looks like an overwhelming wooden wall). The bark is covered with scars, wrinkles and cracks. This provides a lot of convenience for climbing. With the help of the "floating" magic circle It wasn't hard to climb down to Yona. But at the moment when a dark green flying spear dropped from the sky and almost penetrated him like the purple cabbage used to decorate chicken skewers, the young man realized that everything in the world is not always smooth.
The spear grazed the boy's scalp and fell to the ground with a roar. Jonah, who escaped from the injury, finally confirmed the species of the tree...it was undoubtedly a pine needle that fell from a high place. "Be careful. "Hannah shouted with concern fifty yards below. "Be careful to avoid these pine needles. There is also a tree hole diagonally above you. It would be terrible if there are big bugs or something inside. It's best to change the route to avoid it. .”
"Got it." The astrologer responded. He continued to climb up on his hands and knees. He didn't notice the lonely expression on Hannah's face, because his heart was condensed into a whirlpool of complicated tastes by anxiety and joy. Long Ji's words were heard by the 17-year-old boy. There was an uproar in his heart. He only had one thing on his mind at this time: leaving this world and going to the world where Long Ji was. His soul was so full that it could not tolerate the existence of a partner. He did not hope for Hannah. A glance. It was like this just now. It is like this now. His eyes could only see the sky.
Hannah silently lowered her arms to relieve the pain in her right wrist. She held the gun in her right hand to stay alert, and her left hand was responsible for climbing. This action was very energy-consuming. Even the body trained in the endless sand sea could not bear it for a long time; it made her even more tired. It was this weird atmosphere between the two people. For the first time in her life, Hannah Stewart felt that she was a redundant person. She looked up at the astrologer's clothes fluttering in the wind. Sad thoughts arose in her heart: There is more of me in this world, and there is less of me. What changes will there be? Just like the rolling yellow sand in the endless sand sea. There are so many identical gravels. Who cares whether a grain of sand exists or not. If you want to return now, "The Gale of Bactria". He raised his sails and sailed across the sea of yellow sand where giant insects swarmed and the sun shone brightly. But even his sailboat had become someone else's property. Slowly, he reached every corner of the continent. A hometown you can go back to.
After the call with Long Ji ended, Jonah thought for a short time and decided to find a suitable location to activate the space-time star array and open the passage to another world. Since it fell from the sky, the closer it was to the sky, the closer it would be. It's easy to go back to where you came from. With this simple thought, the boy saw at a glance the tallest tree in the entire huge forest. The tall tower standing among the dense vegetation pointing straight to the sky... a pine tree that should be Big tree.
The rope tied the two together. This was Hannah's idea. This way, no matter who slipped and fell, the other could be the last support. If it weren't for the persistence of the woman in red, Jonah would not have tied the hemp rope around his waist. . He was so anxious that he wanted to reach the sky in one step, break through time and space and fly to another woman. Along the way, he walked in a hurry. He didn't even know about Hannah shooting to drive away a few monsters; after climbing up the big tree, he was on top all the way. Climbing and refusing to stop to let Hannah take a break. He is a sensitive and considerate young man. But at this time, he forgot the existence of the people around him.
This awkward trip lasted for a full two hours. As the altitude continued to increase, the sky seemed to get closer and closer. Although the sun could not be seen where to shine, the whole world was as bright as the afternoon in the endless sand sea. From this angle, you can see many big trees towering into the clouds. The bodies of humans, elves, dwarves, giants, beasts, magical beasts and unknown types of creatures are wrapped in cysts and slowly rise. The forest is like a boiling pot. The hot water keeps bubbling. The sporangium spheres suddenly disappear out of thin air when they rise to a certain height. There is a space-time rift above each giant tree that produces spores. The completed product is lifted up with magical energy and sent to an unknown time and space. door.
"It's almost. It's almost..." Yona wiped the sweat from his forehead and clung to a tree branch to gasp for air. "My idea is right. The time and space factors here are already unstable. It seems that there is no way for me to open the channel. It is as difficult as imagined. Just make a slight change to the star array to make the input part more in line with the standards of this world. And the output part can be slightly more consistent. After all, it is a one-time use... etc." He suddenly looked nervous. Sirafina took out the staff from her belt and held it tightly. She closed her eyes and sensed the existence of the star line. After a few seconds, the young man's expression relaxed: "Huh. I was scared to death. Fortunately, we can also find the star line here. There is no change in the angle. The clarity is also good. It seems that even in a different space, it still abides by the rules of the world..."
After a short rest, he continued upward and spent twenty minutes climbing to the top of the tree. The branches and leaves of this huge pine tree were so dense that he had to walk along the branches to the end of the pine branches and stand on the trembling pine needles to see outside. The scenery. The boy walked without fear on the pine needles that looked like a single-plank bridge. Hannah worried from behind: "Go slower. Be careful. If there is a gust of wind, you will be in trouble."
"No, no. There is no wind here." Jonah walked to the end of the pine needles and opened his arms to welcome the clear sky. This is the commanding heights of the entire world. The green earth spreads under his feet and the clear sky is above his head. He turned around and said happily: "The so-called wind is caused by the flow of air elements. Air elements will migrate from places with high concentration to places with low concentration. This creates the continental wind. But the air elements in this world are balanced. Whether below or in Here, the concentration is exactly the same. There will be no flow and there will be no wind. What a wonderful feeling it is, Hannah. Close your eyes and you can't tell whether you are standing at such a high place."
Hannah Stewart walked cautiously with a gun in her left hand: "That being said, it would be troublesome if there were any monsters. In such a big forest, maybe even mosquitoes are the size of birds."
Jonah shook his head: "Haven't you noticed yet? There is no living soul in this entire world. Those abandoned bodies are just shells that move based on instinct. They will die in a short time. We may be the only ones here. There must be wisdom. No one has ever been to this place."
The contemporary head of Stewart's family walked to a pine needle next to him. The "Admiral" sat down with a big gun in his arms: "Okay. I'll guard here. No matter what you want to do, be careful."
He didn't hear his partner's instructions. Jonah had already begun to study the problem of star array graphics. He took out bottles, protractors, papyrus, charcoal and engraving knife from his bag. He muttered: "That's right, that's right." The star array that Mr. Gilbert Naion left on the back of the ghost Bahama used a very wonderful triple reverse spiral. Now that I think about it, although it will consume 20% of the input energy, it can carry out the waveband of the star power. Effective tuning. All of a sudden, the spectrum is adjusted to the band that is most suitable for communication in time and space. It is really a very clever design... And the star array that the first-generation mentor left on the submarine ship 'San Gilberto' can be seen to be different. The work of the period. The structure is simplified to a terrifying degree. It only requires one amplification and one rectifier to complete the entire input part. If you guessed it correctly, the lines in the amplification part are not simple curves, but are composed of several tiny Gilbers. It is composed of a supporting spiral. This can not only streamline the structure, but also improve efficiency..."
He wrote and drew on paper. He turned the ideas in his mind into graphics. He threw the used scratch paper behind him and recorded the conclusions in his mind. In a world without wind, those paintings full of mysterious patterns Papyrus is quietly arranged on the dark green pine needles, like a white snow falling on the green path at night.
Hannah sat next to her, quietly watching the astrologer immersed in his work. Her eyes glanced at the ends of Jonah's brown curly hair, looking towards the skyline where azure blue and green met. Her green eyes blinked. The girl in red suddenly became light. He hummed a song softly. It was a Western Continental tune with a desolate melody. Jonah had never heard Hannah sing before. However, at this moment, he was buried in geometric figures and could not hear the distant singing at all.
It was a song that the previous captain Finn Stewart and seven sailors would sing when they were drunk, "The Wind of Bactria" on a starry night in the endless sea of sand.
"The wind blowing from the red plains.
Blowing and blowing over the hills of Yagu
The rain clouds coming from the other side of the holy river
Never wanted to stop in Zawi.
The woman who lights the candle for me
You are blown and blown by the wind to my side
Why is the cabin so dark tonight?
Have the rain clouds taken you away?"
In the folk myths of the Zawi Empire, there is a beautiful woman who was blown to a farm by the wind and became a farmer's wife. She would light a candle in the living room every day when it got dark to light up the farmer's way home. "When it gets dark, One day when there is no candlelight, it means I am going back. It will start raining in the sky. That is the carriage that takes me home and rides among the clouds." The farmer did not believe it. Until it was raining heavily at night, he took his wife's favorite of honey, he stumbled home drunk. He saw that the wooden house in the rain was dark and silent, just like a pasture. He never saw that beautiful woman again. As he grew older, the farmer realized that there was no such thing. I cherished that God-given partner...but what's the use of regretting it...
