Chapter 2 Past and Future

"What a good wine," Matthew and Simon gathered around the fire and drank a cup of joy. Coupled with the greasy barbecue, it was very pleasant. I don't know how the two of them, a magician and a magic swordsman, can drink so well. More than 10 catties of wine in their skins quickly went down in half.

"Of course it's a good wine," Leo thought hatefully, "If Simon hadn't insisted on this wine, the ghost would have bought you such an expensive wine to drink, which was more than 10 times more expensive than the previous wine..."

"What's the stinky boy thinking? Are you not willing to buy some wine to honor the master? I guess it's almost drunk. Simon began to care about Leo, who was eating meat next to him.

Hearing Simon's words, Leo couldn't help but be shocked. He quickly waved his hand and said with a sunny face, "No, the master is over-minded. I'm just thinking about how to release the elemental trial. It's absolutely meaningless..."

"Even if there are other meanings, it doesn't matter. Anyway, it's the last time to drink the wine you bought," Simon suddenly became a little sad and said, "Even if you buy wine, we won't be able to drink it..."

Is the old man coming up with a new trick? It doesn't look like it!?

"Master, what's wrong?" Leo couldn't help but be stunned when he heard the words.

"Simmon, if you want to say something, why make everyone sad?" Matthew said. After his words, he was also a little sentimental. Matthew took a few mouthfuls of his leather bag and handed the bag to Simon.

Simon didn't say anything. He took the bag and just picked it up and shouted.

Looking at Leo and Simon, Matthew waved to Leo.

Leo obediently sat next to Matthew. Matthew raised his hand, touched Leo's head, and whispered, "Bad boy, it's time for you to know some secrets..."

In 1993, when the world's first astrologer Merokai was divination for the next year's national fortune for the St. Rose Empire, the crystal ball suddenly burst and scattered.

The crystal fragments on one place faintly contain the map of the starry sky, but all the main stars are missing. Seven days later, they are born with natural changes. Merokai watches the sky at night, and all the stars of Allah are missing, and the star map is extremely chaotic.

Meroke found Ivey, the holy magician of the St. Ross Empire at that time, and Lawrence, the vice president of the Magic Guild, and worked together to perform a prophecy, which surprised the three people.

Half a month later, twelve holy wizards on the continent were gathered to assist in predicting the magic array, and the "Great Prophecy" released clearly showed the arrival of disaster.

In 1999, a flying star will fall on the continent, bringing unprecedented disaster.

After urgent consultation by various countries at that time, it was decided to create a huge magic array, with the mithril array and magic crystal as the vein, to attract the magic of more than 10,000 senior magicians, assist the crystal to store the magic of the dragon clan, stimulate an unprecedented huge space door, and teleport the flying stones to other spaces to escape this disaster.

At the same time, dwarves and orcs dug tunnels for various countries and built huge caves about 2,000 meters underground as a refuge for the attack of Tianshi.

After discussion, all resources and manpower were invested in this huge project.

In one of the caves, the Holy Magic Guide Ivey and the Magic Guild stored many union books, scrolls and some rare materials, and then arranged eight of their own disciples to guard and cast seal magic.

At that time, it was said that if the magic array successfully transferred the Tianshi, then it would unlock the seal. If it failed, the guard would wake up a hundred years later.

But I don't know what went wrong. When Matthew and Simon woke up, it was more than 2,000 years later, and other guards had died under the boulders falling from the cave due to the earthquake.

When the two looked for a way out, they found that the way had been buried by the mud and sand, and along the newly cracked passage, the two finally came to the underground world after dozens of days.

After more than a year, the two knew what had happened. At the same time, they found a data for transmitting the array in the space ring of the guard leader at that time, that is, the back door left by Ivey. Therefore, the two began to struggle to find materials and think about ways to return to the world on the ground.

Ivey left such a sentence.

"The first prophecy made me see more unknowns, so my disciples, you may be the only hope in the world. You have to find a way home, lead everyone back to the ground, and let all life in the spring breeze in the sun end everything tragic in front of you."

At the same time, because the ground world is full of unknowns, the two took the apprentice Leo by chance, hoping to explain everything to Leo before the experiment. Even if they fail, there are latecomers who can continue this long journey.

In the years of teaching Leo, the two stepped into the ranks of the magicians, which could stimulate the space array, so after discussion, the two decided to go to the ground to find out.

Hearing the history told by the master, Leo was deeply shocked.

Leo is extremely admirable for the behavior of the two masters, not to mention the shock of history. Leo knows that the strength of the two masters has reached the peak of the ninth level after several years. No matter in any underground country, they can sweep everything and become an extremely noble existence. However, in the depths of this dense forest, they have studied silently for many years for everyone's future, and finally embark on a dangerous future. The journey of knowledge.

"Master, why do you have to go back to the ground?" Leo said anxiously, "Do you have to take risks for a word?"

Matthew looked at the burning flame, patted Leo on the head, and said, "It's not only for this sentence, but also for everyone to live a better life."

Simon looked at Leo and said, "Look at today's life. All people are struggling to survive. There will never be enough food. The war with the beasts and cavemen has continued. Everyone's lives have been greatly shortened. Everything has lasted for thousands of years... If you have really lived in the previous world, you will know that it is the place we dream of..."

"Is the ground really that good?"

"That's heaven..."

"That... Master, I also want to go with you..."

"You are the last seed we left. How can you go?" Simon smiled and handed the wine bag to Leo and said, "Come on, take a sip. From today on, you will be an adult."

Leo took the skin and took a stupid sip. A spicy and hot feeling rushed directly from his throat into his stomach, and then turned into a warm current, rushing all over his body.

Leo leaned down and coughed loudly. In the master's laughter and his own cough, he felt like he was suddenly empty, extremely uncomfortable and indescribably lost.

In the following six months, under the guidance of his two teachers, the 9-level magician Matthew and the 9-level magic swordsman Simon, Leo greatly improved his strength and successfully advanced to the 5th-level swordsman. At the same time, due to time, the two firmly imprinted a lot of knowledge to be used in the future to Leo with memory. In the last time, Simon and Matthew strengthened a lot of what they knew, including elementary alchemy, magic arrays, space magic, etc., whether they knew it before or what they had learned in the past ten years, all been strengthened to Leo. The learning of each new skill is generally a preliminary attempt, and then accompanied by a few thick books. Thick magic book.

"This master doesn't quite understand. He read it in his own book..." I don't know, I just know a little..." Leo is repeated by the two masters many times every day. Finally, Leo finally came to a conclusion: in fact, many of the two masters didn't understand it. They all depended on a pile of books, and then asked themselves to learn...

No matter how slow time passes, the day of breaking up will eventually come.

Leave a pile of books and many question marks. Matthew and Simon stepped on the transmission array, accompanied by a burst of white light and disappeared before Leo's eyes.

In front of the magic array, Leo has been standing here for a long time.

This is... The feeling of loss?

It turns out that many things, when they really have, don't feel much and lose them, only then do they know that the emptiness is so strong that the power is enough to make people collapse, but it can also make people grow.

Another year has passed.

Leo is 18 years old. Thinking of his master's advice, Leo knows that he should go out and continue to practice himself.

If the magic array fails, then Leo, you must remember that the way out is to find a tunnel again and return to the ground from the tunnel.

Leo silently took the space ring left by the master and left the cave known as "home" where he had lived for many years. According to the master, after opening the boundary, Leo walked to the periphery of the claw jungle without looking back. The only thing left was infinite warm memories and a drop of crystal tears.
