The original stone walls have disappeared, replaced by some beautiful fences. Behind the fence, the two cities shone brightly, resembling a hymn composed of white marble and red tiles. The Anke River is no longer the stinky ditch he was used to seeing since childhood. It has become a shiny ribbon as transparent as glass, and the river water is as clear as melting snow. Among them, there are - this should be particularly appreciated - fat and chubby carp who play happily while blowing bubbles.
If viewed from above, Anko Mobock must be extremely dazzling. It will shine brightly. The remnants of a thousand years have been swept away.
I don't know why, but this made Zinc feel a little uneasy. He felt out of place with all of this, as if wearing new clothes made him itch. Of course, he is indeed wearing new clothes, and they are indeed very itchy, but that's not the problem. The new world is amazing, the world should be like this. But, but - does he really want to change? Or perhaps he just wants to arrange things in a more reasonable way?
I said, don't you think this is tailor-made for me? "Carding said.
Zinc turned around, looking bewildered.
Hmm
This hat, my goodness
Oh. Hmm. Very suitable
Carding sighed, took off the Baroque style headpiece, and carefully put it back into the box. It's better to send it over now, "he said." He's already starting to ask about it
I'm still a little worried, where did the hat really go, "Zinert said.
Right here, "Carding said firmly, tapping the box cover with her hand.
What I mean is, um, really that one
This is the real one
What I mean is -
This is the principal's hat, "Carding said slowly," you should be very clear about this, because it was made by you
That's right, but... "The chief clerk looked pitiful.
After all, you wouldn't have made a fake, would you
Well, I can't say for sure -
It's just a hat. People think it's what it is. When they see the principal wearing it, they think it's the original hat. From a certain perspective, it is indeed the principal's hat. The meaning of things depends on their function. People are the same, of course. This is the basic principle of magic. "Carding paused dramatically, stuffed the hat box into Zinc's arms, and then began to show off his Latin," Cogitum ergol hatto, so to speak
Zert once specialized in studying various ancient languages, so he did his best to start fooling around.
I think, so my hat
What? "Carding led the way down the stairs and headed towards the new version hall.
"'I think I'm a the Mad Hatter?'" Zilter continued his efforts.
Just shut up, okay
Mist still shrouded the two cities, its silver and gold curtains dyed blood red by the afterglow of the setting sun. At present, the light is pouring into the room through the window of the hall.
Ke Yin sat on a stool, with the staff lying horizontally on his knee. Zinc suddenly realized that every time he saw that child, he always carried a staff. This is quite strange. Most wizards keep their staffs under their beds or on the fireplace fire.
He doesn't like this wand. It is black, but not because of its color, more like it is a moving hole that leads to some more unpleasant surface. The wand doesn't have eyes, but it seems to be staring at Zinc, as if it knows his deepest thoughts - if that's really the case, then it knows more than he knows at the moment.
Zinert walked through the hall with Carding, and his skin tingled with a sensation of pure magic spreading from the child like a shockwave.
Several dozen of the oldest wizards crowded around the chairs, staring at the floor with awe on their faces.
Zinc stretched his neck and saw——
The world.
The night somehow got buried in the floor, and the world floated in this deep pool. Zinc realized that this was really the world, not some illusion or simple projection. This fact carries a terrifying certainty, beyond doubt. He can see the shape of clouds and everything else. The frozen wasteland on the central axis, the anti heavy continent, the sea, and the edge waterfalls are all so small, with colors like crayon drawings, yet truly lifelike
Someone is talking to him.
Mmm? "The temperature around him suddenly dropped, which pulled him back to reality. He realized in horror that Ke Yin had just said something to him.
Sorry? "He corrected his words," It's just that this world... is just too beautiful
Our Zert used to be an aesthetician, "said Ke Yin. One or two wizards next to him understood the meaning of this word and let out a few short chuckles." But when it comes to this world, there is still a lot of room for improvement. As I was saying earlier, Zert, when we look around, we see cruelty, greed, and inhumanity everywhere, which shows that the world is indeed being ruled badly, isn't it
Zinc realized that two dozen eyes had fallen on him.
Hmm. "He said," Well, you can't change human nature
There was a dead silence around.
Zinc hesitated for a moment. Right? "He said.
We'll have to wait and see, "Carding said," but if we change the world, human nature will also change. Isn't that right, brothers
We have two cities, "said a wizard," and I built a castle in the city myself -
We rule the Twin Cities, but who rules the world? "Carding said," There must be thousands of kings, emperors, and tribal leaders outside
Each one can only stutter and read some books casually, "said a wizard.
The Duke of Shuangcheng has read quite well, "Zilte said.
Now he can't read anything, "Carding said." Speaking of which, where did that lizard go? Forget it. The problem is that the world should be ruled by wise philosophers. It needs guidance. We have fought against each other for countless centuries, but if we unite... who knows what we can do
Today is Twin Cities, tomorrow is the whole world! "Shouted someone from behind the crowd.
Kading nodded.
Tomorrow will be the whole world, and then - "he quickly added -" Friday will be the whole universe
This will free up the weekend, "thought Zinert to himself. He remembered the box in his arms and wanted to hand it to Ke Yin. Kekading slipped up to him, snatched the box, and then presented it to the boy with a fancy gesture.
Principal's hat, "he said," you are undoubtedly its owner, we believe
Ke Yin took the hat. Zinc saw a hint of hesitation on his face for the first time.
Is there any formal ceremony? "He asked.
Carding and coughing a few times.
I - um, no, "he said," no, I don't think so. "He glanced up at the other high-level wizards, and everyone shook their heads. No, we never have any formal ceremonies. Except for dinners, of course. Uh... Look, this isn't a coronation, Principal, you understand, he leads the wizarding brotherhood, he is, "Carding's voice grew weaker under the golden eyes." He is, you see... he is... the chief, among... equal... wizarding brothers
The staff started moving on its own and finally pointed straight at the card, its appearance was simply chilling. Kading hurriedly retreated, "and Ke Yin seemed to start listening to the voice in his own head again.
No, "he said in the end. His voice has a wide range of echo effects, and if you're not a wizard, you have to use a lot of expensive audio equipment to achieve it. "A ceremony must be held. It is necessary to make everyone understand that the wizard is now the master. But the place is not here. I will choose a place. All the wizards who have passed through the university gate must attend, understand?"
Some people live far away, "Carding said cautiously." When do you want to set the date, because traveling also takes time -
They are wizards! "Ke Yin shouted." They can arrive in the blink of an eye! I have given them this kind of power! Besides, "his pitch fell back to a more normal level," the university is finished. It has never been the real home of magic, it is just a cage that imprisons it. I will build a brand new place
He took the new hat out of the box and smiled at it. Zinc and Carding held their breath.
But
They turned around and the one speaking was the master of magic inheritance, Hakkadri, who was now standing still, his mouth opening and closing.
Ke Yin raised his eyebrows and turned to face him.
Are you saying you want to close the university? "The old wizard asked with a trembling voice.
