Me and my fantasy world

Nord town exterior walls.

The city gate was opened, and pedestrians from outside formed a long line. Two soldiers carefully checked each one. Those wearing hoods and cloaks, and those with good looks and figures, regardless of gender, would be searched and allowed to pass only after repeated confirmation. The same went for carriages, and the people sitting in the carriages were required to get off and be checked.

On the city wall, two guards leaned against the wall, holding their spears, looking at the long line on the ground and the soldier who was searching them with some envy.

"Hey, Brother Xiang, I have never touched a woman in my life. Can't you let me go down?" A younger soldier complained, his eyes filled with envy and jealousy.

Next to the young soldier was a middle-aged soldier who looked much older. He glanced at him with some disdain and said, "It will come later. Don't worry."

"Brother Xiang! You say that again, I'm so angry..." The young soldier said, lying on the city wall, holding his spear, looking down at the wall with eager eyes.

"Don't be so impatient, young man. What is coming will eventually come." The middle-aged soldier said, taking out half a cigarette from his arms, putting it into his mouth, sucking greedily without even lighting it.

The young soldier looked at the middle-aged soldier with some disdain after seeing this: "Brother Xiang, you really have no fire? How can you smell it when you inhale like this?"

"Hmm? Then how do you say we should eat it?" The middle-aged soldier held half a cigarette between his index and middle fingers and looked at the young soldier with interest.

"Light it with fire, and then inhale it slowly. Wow... that feeling is real." The young soldier squinted his eyes intoxicatedly, as if he felt a little ecstatic just thinking about the smell.

"I can't bear to part with it. I'm like you, taking half an hour to smoke one cigarette? I don't know how many times this thing can work." The middle-aged man said, as if he was hiding a treasure. He only took two puffs and put it back into his arms.

"Hey Brother Xiang, don't you think this thing is weird?" asked the young soldier.

"Huh? What's wrong?" The middle-aged soldier didn't seem to notice anything was wrong and asked him back.

"That Nameless Village, a small village with no name next to Nord Town, how come there is such a thing?" said the young soldier, using his index and middle fingers to make a gesture of holding something and placing it in front of his lips.

"Yes, it's incredible that there are such treasures in that village." The middle-aged soldier patted his chest and smiled with relief, then looked at Nord Town behind him, "But thanks to that nameless village, our city looks a bit like a big city. For example, paper is much more convenient than bamboo slips."

"That's true, hahaha..." The young soldier laughed and seemed to be planning for his future, but the sudden explosion in the distance interrupted him.

boom!

A huge explosion sounded in the woods on the outskirts of Nord Town.

The pedestrians at the city gate were frightened and fled in all directions. Some wanted to take the opportunity to rush into Nord Town, but were stopped by the motionless soldiers and blocked at the city gate.

The two relaxed guards on the city wall were frightened by the loud noise and staggered, then hurriedly turned back to look at the source of the sound.

"What's that sound?" The young soldier looked curiously towards the source of the sound, but he could only see a dense forest and could not make out anything.

"What's going on..." Before the middle-aged soldier could finish his words, another loud noise was heard, this time still from within the woods, but one could clearly see huge sparks rushing into the sky and burning fiercely in the woods.

The two guards were also knocked to the ground by the powerful air wave, and the young soldier almost rolled off the city wall. The middle-aged soldier remained calm and grabbed the young soldier, thus preventing him from falling.

The explosion was loud, but it didn't last long. It died down in an instant. The young soldier was still in shock. He gasped for breath and looked at the middle-aged soldier who was holding his arm. "Xiang, Brother Xiang."

"Notify the Knights to go to the forest and check the situation."

"Yes Yes!"

……

"Uncle Lin, are you going hunting in the forest? Why did you bring a crossbow?"

"Hmm? Xiaoyi, uncle is going to the forest to chop wood and hunt some rabbits."

"Oh, I see. This is for you."

"Hmm? A rope? Why are there two golden stones tied to the end? It can't be gold!"

"No, no! How is that possible? This is a rope I made. It's called a 'meteor hammer'. You just need to throw it at the target and it will automatically wrap around it. Then the two golden magic ores will stick together due to the suction force and help you tie up your prey."

"It won't be useless, right? This rope looks so soft... And is this stone a magic ore? You know your uncle Lin can't do magic."

"No, it doesn't matter if Uncle Lin doesn't know magic. There is a mechanism inside. Even if Uncle Lin doesn't know magic, it will still be useful if I throw it out."

"Really? Okay, I'll take you there to try."

"Okay, come on, Uncle Lin!"

"Yes, I will."

"..."

"Neighbors! Come quickly, this 'meteor hammer' thing made by Xiaoyi actually helped me kill a wild deer! It was a wild deer! No one in our village has ever killed one before!"

"Well, it just happened. It's not that good. There are still many things that need to be improved."

"Xiao Yi made something new again? And helped Lao Lin kill a deer?"

"Xiao Yi! You are so mean. Why don't you give me some?"

"Yes, yes, yes, we have everything, don't worry..."

……

The past events were like pictures, slowly floating through Lingyi's mind, but unfortunately, time has passed and they are no longer together.

"You said... this is unique to Nord Town?"

Lingyi stared at Sheila with his eyes wide open, emitting a suffocating murderous intent. The depths of his eyes gradually turned blood red. Lingyi's voice also carried several echoes, overlapping together, with a powerful impact. Just hearing that voice would make the body tremble unconsciously.

"Maybe... I don't really..."

Sheila was frightened by the sudden contrast between Lingyi and her and was at a loss what to do. She crawled backwards in panic, but the dead tree behind her made it impossible for her to move away from Lingyi. Even without the dead tree as an obstacle, Sheila's hands were shaking so much that she had no room to resist. Her legs were numb from Lingyi's glare, as if they were paralyzed.

Just a glance at Lingyi made me hold my breath nervously, not daring to act rashly...

From the conversation between Aya's father and the knight captain, Zero One has already understood that the destruction of Nameless Village is related to Nord Town, but this is only one-sided statement and there is no direct evidence. Although Zero One is very angry, reason still prevails and he still hopes to investigate it thoroughly, at least to find out that there are items made by Zero One like in the village of Aya.

But the information obtained from Sheila might become the ironclad evidence of this matter. Lingyi could no longer restrain his anger and stared at Sheila angrily, like a falcon biting its prey.

"Really? Then I understand." Lingyi thought for a moment, then slowly moved his head away and got off Sheila.

Only at this moment did Sheila slowly become aware of the discomfort in her lungs. The breath she had been holding suddenly burst out and she almost vomited.

"Xiaoyi..." Xiaojiu looked at Lingyi with eyes full of heartache, his ears drooped helplessly at both sides. During the days of being with Lingyi, Xiaojiu learned a lot about Lingyi's past, but Xiaojiu didn't know how to comfort him. She could only watch him from a distance and tell him that she was still by his side.

But unfortunately, it is very easy to do this. Long Er must have been standing by Ling Yi's side, watching over him and accompanying him silently.

For a moment, a feeling of self-blame, entanglement, heartache and other emotions entangled together, making Xiaojiu's heart gradually covered with a layer of sadness.

Lingyi pulled back the rope that bound Xuela with a flick of his hand, turned around and walked coldly past Xiaojiu. Xiaojiu could feel a chill rising from her back just by brushing past her. She was always on her toes, and Lingyi's lips moved lightly: "Xiaojiu, let's go."

"Okay, okay." Xiaojiu didn't dare to provoke Lingyi at this time, and could only follow Lingyi obediently.

But just as Lingyi took a step, he suddenly heard a restless cry from behind.

goo—

Xuela quickly covered her stomach, complaining inwardly: "Do you know the situation? How can I be hungry?"

"Are you hungry?" Lingyi turned around. At this time, Lingyi's eyes had returned to normal, and the leaked magic power was all retracted into the body. He tilted his head and looked at Sheila.

"No, I'm not hungry." Sheila just wanted to keep a distance from this man who had released such a strong murderous aura, but she didn't dare to ask him for food.

But Lingyi raised his head high, thought for a while, slowly exhaled a breath of anger, and once again surprised Sheila: "What do you want to eat?"

"Ah?" Lingyi's words were full of self-blame. He turned around and looked at Xuela, who was confused. "No, no need. I, I'm really not hungry..."

goo—

Reality was like an iron hammer, hitting Sheila hard on the head. Looking at Lingyi's eyes, Sheila wished she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

"It's okay. I had a problem just now too. I couldn't suppress my anger all of a sudden. I scared you." Lingyi covered his head and looked at Xuela in annoyance. "Let's go. If you want to eat something, I'll take you there."

"Yes, I'm sorry..." Xuela still felt embarrassed and wanted to apologize, but Xiaojiu seemed to see that Lingyi had calmed down, so he jumped up and interrupted Xuela.

"I'm hungry too, I'm hungry too!" Xiaojiu raised his voice, without any of the obedient spirit he had just had.

Lingyi just shook his head after seeing this. He punched Xiaojiu hard on the head and was frightened by his own strong killing intent. For a moment, he couldn't even say the word "reject".

"Then let's go, Nord Town is a town after all, let's go to the city to eat..." Before Lingyi finished speaking, Long Er's voice suddenly popped up in his mind.

"Xiaoyi, there's someone here!"

Lingyi's face turned gloomy again, but not as murderous as before. Xiaojiu seemed not to notice it yet and wanted to continue to act coquettishly to Lingyi: "Okay! Go ahead..." Xiaojiu wanted to cheer but Lingyi covered his mouth, held him in his arms, and slowly fell to the ground.

Lingyi looked at Xiaojiu with a serious expression: "Someone, we'll talk later."

Perhaps it was because he had gotten used to staying with Lingyi these days, so Xiaojiu didn't feel uncomfortable from Lingyi's sudden "attack". After comforting Xiaojiu, Lingyi looked behind him. Xiaojiu also frowned slightly, and looked alertly in the direction Lingyi was staring, without resisting. He slowly wrapped his hands around a circle of golden rings, ready to fight at any time.

"Long'er, how many people are there?" Lingyi asked Long'er puzzledly.

Long Er didn't care and immediately controlled half of Ling Yi's body. The blue pupil of his left eye emitted a faint light and scanned the woods in front of him: "Ten people, two teams of knights, lined up in a row towards this side, as if they are looking for something."

"It looks like she's really attracted him." Lingyi released Xiaojiu from his arms, and Xiaojiu immediately squatted on the ground, ready to attack at any time. Lingyi's eyes shifted to Shera, "Can you still fight?"

"I..." Sheila was still a little confused when facing Zero One. In Sheila's impression, Zero One held a special rope of Nord Town, so Zero One should be a native of Nord Town. Not to mention the inappropriate relationship between humans and elves, just judging from her identity as a Nord Town person, did she still need her help in the vicinity of Nord Town?
