Just as Hotaru and No. 3 were looking at each other in the air, Joshua began to observe with interest the Divine Machine Girl who seemed to have completed her advancement. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

If you talk about the appearance alone, there is naturally no change, whether it is height or figure, Hotaru is exactly the same as before, and the changes caused by the advancement should be in the body.

Joshua's eyes could directly see the flow of energy, and Hotaru, who had a contract with him, the flow route of energy in his body was almost unguarded for him, and he could easily see through it at a glance.

"It seems that the power output of the core has indeed become higher, and the energy route also has a supercharged magic structure, which can burst out with greater power for a short time......"

Analyzing the general magical energy route in Hotaru's body, Joshua couldn't help but applaud those alchemists who designed the divine machine four hundred years ago - although he couldn't understand the deeper structural route at all, it didn't prevent him from seeing that just now, Hotaru's human form already had the strength of the silver peak, and was even about to break through the gold-level boundary.

The psionic body, without eating and drinking, absorbs free energy, heals quickly, and regenerates limbs...... All kinds of special abilities are blessed in this small body, and even allow her to grow through battle and killing, which can be called the supreme masterpiece of alchemy.

However, after all, the body of the god machine is still a weapon, and the human form is just designed to facilitate carrying and communication, and her strength is actually not important.

"Hotaru, how do you feel after you advanced?"

Raising his head and looking directly into the eyes of his weapon, Joshua was very expectant to ask Hotaru for his opinion, he was not very proficient in alchemy, and sometimes it was better to ask the divine machine himself.

But the silver-haired girl was obviously absent-minded, she kept staring at the purple-blue rune core in Rin's hand, and then blinked before she reacted:

"Well, it feels pretty good...... Master, who is this? ”

What does it feel like to feel good...... Joshua frowned, but when he thought about it, he suddenly realized that it was really useless to ask Hotaru, and she didn't know alchemy.

Squinting at the No. 3 projection floating in front of the bed like a ghost, Joshua thought for a moment, and then said slowly: "This ...... New decorations to take home? ”

Hotaru, No. 3: "? ”

While Joshua was still dealing with his own affairs in the territory, the imperial capital, the Holy City of the Three Mountains, and the Morlay Palace.

The weather in the center of the empire was already very warm, and most of the pedestrians on the road had already stripped off their leather clothes and put on long sleeves of single clothes, and after sending the students back to the Royal Academy, Nostradamus did not stop, but walked directly into the palace, and once again found His Majesty the Emperor who was taking care of official business.

With the status of an old mage and his relationship with the emperor, he did not need to be notified in advance when he entered and exited the palace, and the guards on the road would not stop him, and after a while, he saw this man who held the highest power in the empire in his study.

Opening the door to the study, Nostradamus saw a man with long dark gold shawl hair sitting on an armchair in the study, looking at an ancient book with a bright silver cover, and on his lap, a little boy with dark blonde hair and sky blue eyes was sitting.

"The Seven Princes are also here today."

The old mage raised his eyebrows, touched his white beard, and said with some surprise: "This is really rare. ”

"This little guy, today said that it was up to me to handle official business...... In front of his own child, the emperor of the empire did not show much of the majesty of a legendary warrior, he put down the ancient books in his hand, turned his head to look at the old mage and said: "Teacher, this time I came, I should have finished dealing with the affairs of the Northland." ”

"That's right. The three of them have all returned from the other world, and they seem to be looking for the space-time gate themselves, and after I opened the space-time gate, they quickly returned by themselves. ”

Waving his hand, summoning a chair out of thin air, the old mage sat on the armchair with the top lambskin cushions, he thought for a moment, and then said, "Israel, there is something very worthy of attention, worth saying. ”

Even his own teacher, the Extreme Meaning level archmage, was so cautious that even the Emperor couldn't ignore it, and Israel asked curiously, "What's the matter?" ”

Nostradamus roughly told Joshua and the others about their experiences in the other world.

In the study, there was silence for a moment.

"Extreme Intention Aragami ...... Even with the help of others, it is not easy to kill it...... It seems that Radcliffe has indeed comprehended the extreme intention, and the space-time turbulence in the Northland has disappeared, so that the line of defense leading to the Starfall Inland Sea to the Daze Sea will be more stable. ”

Israel muttered, the other world on the other side of the space-time channel has lost its threat, and it is also a huge change to the strategic deployment of the entire empire, he is still touching his child's hair in his hand, and the seventh prince who looks young seems to want to remove the hand on his head, but it is useless to struggle for a long time, after a while, the emperor said: "It seems that the evil god who invaded the other world has left that world, with the distance between Michael and that world, The chaos forces that have appeared in the Far South now are very likely to be related to that chaos evil god. Secretary Kaos is also investigating the matter. ”

After finishing speaking, he paused, then shook his head with a smile and said, "And I didn't expect that someone could advance faster than me at the beginning, and the times are really improving." ”

"It's just luck."

Unable to remove his father's big hand, the Seventh Prince gave up on this matter, but after he listened to his father's words, he said a little unhappily: "Whether it is Brandon or that Radcliffe, they just inherit the inheritance of the sages, with the inheritance of the sages, anyone can do these things, and you are different from the father......"

It seems that although this Seventh Prince does not seem to be very old, he actually knows a lot of things, and he speaks very methodically, not like an ordinary child.

But Israel shook his head, he continued to touch his child's head, and said slowly: "Alva, it is not that there is a sage inheritance to do these things, but because of these things, you can awaken the sage lineage. ”

"Don't be blinded by the negativity of jealousy, you are my child and need to look at things from all angles - the Azure Orb has been passed down for thousands of years since the sages, but since the Third Saint guarded the abyss, it has been silent, until four hundred years ago, the ancestors of the Radcliffe family exterminated the chaos and awakened the power of the chaos keepers, and now, this generation of Radcliffe has taken it a step further, that is his strength."

He lowered his head, looked at his child seriously, and said in a deep voice: "Luck is part of strength, and in other words, it is indeed true." A person's life is unpredictable, but without strength, even if the time given to you by fate comes, you can't grasp it. ”

After speaking, he didn't care about his son's unconvinced eyes, but fell into thought.

Before the age of twenty-five, a warrior who comprehended the ultimate meaning and advanced to the golden high rank...... This means that he is destined to become a powerhouse, and at such a young age, it is even possible to advance to the legend in the future.

Contemplating, looking at his son, the emperor evoked a different kind of thought in his heart.

- Time is gradually passing, the entire Northland Empire is gradually warming, and the real spring is coming.

Because of the students of Nostradamus, news about Joshua and the others going to another world and returning spread in the Imperial Royal Mage Academy, and then gradually spread to the noble and high-ranking people in the entire imperial capital.

And when trading with the outside world, the dwarves did not hide the slightest hint of the matter, as a worthy topic of conversation, but in their mouths, the protagonist is not Joshua, but the old dwarf Moria.

In the mouths of these two groups of people, Joshua, Moria, and others have almost become characters in myths and legends, especially the black-haired warrior who returned from tearing apart the space-time passage in front of everyone, and now even hunters and adventurers who usually focus on hunting and exploration have gradually known his name.

It didn't take long for the entire empire to learn that there was a powerful lord in the Moldavian Territory of the Northlands, and that in his realm there was even a gateway to another world - a world where he had the secret of such power.

Although there are some strange deviations in this news, it cannot be said to be wrong in reality, which undoubtedly attracts a large number of curious adventurers to explore.

Starfall 832, March 27.

The snow melts and spring arrives.

In the weight of the Black Forest in Moldavia, the sun vine sown by Kleel has spread to every corner of the forest, its roots are deeply rooted in the soil, absorbing the negative and chaotic breath, which makes its original white body surface gradually dyed with layers of black streamers, until finally, even turned into a black brown appearance.

After almost two months of absorption and transformation, the chaotic power absorbed by the sun vine finally reached its limit, and when the first warm breeze and sunlight of spring came to this bitter cold land, with a slight popping sound, countless gray-green shoots emerged from the black vine, and these vigorous shoots grew rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then turned into clumps of buds, bathed in the sun.

The flowers bloomed, bursting into countless gray flying flotsam, in the slight crackling sound like a flame burning dead wood, the gray flocculent silk turned into a rising cloud, enveloping the entire black forest, these flocculent silk carried a trace of chaotic power, they fluttered with the wind, and then turned into crystal fly ash under the sunlight, scattered on the earth, adding fertility to the land.

This year is sure to be a good year.

Countless adventurers inhabit the main city of Moldavia, where they set out to hunt monsters, explore the depths of the mountains, and then bring back the corpses and treasured ores of monsters, drink and laugh in taverns.

The caravans carried rare goods and sold them to the local inhabitants and brave passers-by, whether it was weapons or vegetables and fruits, they would be sold quickly, and these caravans that had received a Moldavian trading permit did not hesitate to return to the central region of the empire with a full harvest and specialties, and before the next winter, they could trade back and forth about three times, and the profits were enough to drive others crazy.

At this time, Joshua, who was training his city guards and knight guards, also received news from the imperial capital.

That's news from businessman Alfonso

"The auction in early spring, is it about to start?"
