ps: It's really on the shelves.,Now that it's on the shelves.,Let's celebrate the two more.,I hope everyone can still come to cheer more after it's put on the shelves.,Thank you.

"It turns out that acting can be so boring. Less than an hour after the opening, Lina had already become drowsy and couldn't help complaining: "I've been looking forward to it for years, but I didn't expect it to be like this." ”

"It seems that you seem to know very well, but you haven't been here yourself. But I think it's pretty good, it's interesting. In all fairness, Pannis is right, the show is indeed very artistic and ornamental, with performances by various performers, operas, oratorios, and cantata in turn, arias and recitatives intertwined on stage, and hymns appearing from time to time, such as ballades, tactile songs, rondos, waltzes, scherzos, and all kinds of music are transmitted through the illusion circle, so that the whole venue can hear clearly. On the stage, the skirts are flying, minuets, pointe dances, tap dances, and even the hunting dances of elves and the war dances of orcs, the dancing postures are dizzying. Interspersed between each show are some witty little performances, clowns in all kinds of strange and eye-catching clothes doing all kinds of difficult actions on the stage, many magical actions that even the body of a professional zhì can not do, making it difficult to imagine how ordinary people like clowns do it.

Such a performance made even the most discerning viewer nod their heads in praise, and even the official representatives of the elves couldn't help but applaud again and again, paying tribute to the creativity and infectious performance of the artists.

However, there was an important issue that everyone in the party overlooked. For Catherine and Pannis, who received a well-established and systematic aristocratic education, there was a deep understanding of musical knowledge. There's nothing wrong with appreciating these, of course. As long as it is really good music and dance, even if the music knowledge is very shallow, it can be appreciated. But. Lina is an exception. For a person who has been locked up in a dark library for ten years, and even after he comes out, he has almost no understanding of music and dance, and in this way, the performance has turned from a feast to a kind of torture, mental torture, which makes her very distressed. It's a pity that before participating in the show, Lina herself didn't watch it. And Catherine and Vivien, who had seen it, couldn't have thought of this problem, so Lina could only tug at her long hair in distress and whisper about her expectations for a few years.

"It's really interesting. Catherine also nodded: "Especially the aria of Scatira just now, the flowery tone makes people's hearts break when they hear it." ”

"Actually, I prefer Rossini's alto part. Pannis said: "His voice is so distinctive, I found it as soon as I opened my mouth after I appeared, and the voice was strong and rich to the point of substance, giving people a kind of shock." ”

"Enough of you. Lina gritted her teeth and glared at the two people who were immersed in the performance, and said angrily: "I know that I don't understand at all, but you still have to discuss this in front of me." You guys are provoking. ”

"Alright, alright. Catherine reached out and put her arm around Lina's waist and said, "I'm sorry, it's rare to enjoy a high-level performance, a little too devoted." Don't be angry, my sister loves you. ”

"Hmph, I don't want to. Lina turned her head. The body secretly squeezed into Catherine's arms.

Pannis couldn't help but smile faintly as he watched the two girls in front of him use the little entanglement to enhance their relationship. But after smiling. But he sighed softly and whispered, "Such a rare moment." Why is there always someone bothering?"

"Someone is disturbing?" Catherine was stunned, not understanding what Pennis meant. Because of Lina's deterrent power, there are several empty positions in the front and back of the four people, and I have to say that this is a waste of luxury to the extreme for the hard-to-find New Year's show, and it can also explain Lina's terrifying image in the eyes of the young priests of other temples. Because of this, it is theoretically impossible for anyone to disturb them now, which is why Catherine will play with Lina so unscrupulously regardless of her image.

Pannis didn't answer, just silently looked to Catherine's other side. Turning her gaze, Catherine was also taken aback. Vivien was still leaning on her body and sleeping, but by Vivian's side, an old man sat at some point. The appearance of the old man was not only without warning, but also silent, like a ghost.

"Huh, President?" Catherine was surprised to recognize the old man sitting next to her with her eyes half-closed, "Why are you here?"

"Miss Catherine, I wonder if I can take a little time for you?" Old man Odin opened his eyes, and the light in his eyes almost stung Catherine's skin: "I have something to do, and I want to find a quiet place to talk to you." ”

"Well, does it have to be now?" said Catherine, with some embarrassment, "and two children are going to perform before the end of the show at eleven midnight, and we have promised them that they will cheer them on." ”

"Mao'er and Ansha?" Odin smiled, "The two little ones have great potential, and they will definitely become two superstars in the art world in the future." But it doesn't matter, it only takes up a short period of your time, and it will definitely not delay you from cheering them on. ”

"That's fine. Catherine agreed to Odin's request: "Where are we going? But in this situation, you must disturb others if you want to go out." ”

"No, I'll take you out. Before Odin finished speaking, Pannis suddenly interjected very rudely: "It's okay, it's just a clown show between the scenes, and it won't affect others too much." ”

Odin was stunned for a moment, and nodded knowingly: "That's right, then let's leave now." ”

"I'm going too, Lord. Lina looked at Odin expectantly, "Is that okay?"

"Absolutely. Odin smiled and said, "It's all your business. ”

The benefits of the loose crew in the first ten rows were immediately apparent, and after shaking Vivien awake, the five of them easily squeezed out of the stands and into a staff lounge that had been reserved for the construction of the stands.

"I've seen your report, Miss Catherine. As soon as everyone sat down, Odin said directly: "I have discussed with Antuin a few times about what you have discovered, but with Antuin's knowledge of magic, he can't know what kind of magic Sandy is using this time, and he doesn't even know what the purpose of what he is doing with these people. But one thing is certain, he turned those people into old men, and he was definitely trying to steal something from them. I'm starting to guess it's life force, but Antuin says it's not uncommon for life force sucking spells to be used, and the high-level spell Vampire Touch is one of them. However, first, no matter what, it is impossible for the spell of life force absorption to completely drain the life force of the human body and cause death, and second, the loss of life force will not make people really old, but will only make people weak, so this point can be ruled out. ”

"We have also considered what you said, and we really can't find the answer. Catherine said, "But I think that if you find any trace of the mage Sandy, you can always know what he's doing." ”

"Don't be impulsive. Odin advised: "The more impulsive you are when you fight a mage, the faster you die, so you must stay calm." I know that you are a knight and hate evil very much, but I hope that you can control your hatred, even if you find some traces of them, you will report back to the guild first and then act in unison, of course, if it is an encounter, it is naturally not considered in this regard. ”

"Why?" said Catherine in surprise, "a lot of times, it's a rare time. ”

"Some time ago, Antuin and I just came back from Spindle Village. Odin explained: "At least five legends participated in the operation of Spindle Village, three mages, and two physical professions. In other words, they are a very large organization, and I even suspect that they have demigods behind them. I know that you, as a knight, will not fear death and danger, but if my suspicions are fulfilled, you will not only send yourself to death when you clash with them head-on, but will also make them more vigilant in their future activities, which will hinder our pursuit. ”

"Okay, I see. Catherine closed her eyes and thought for a while, and replied in a low voice: "Your consideration is right, I accept your request, and all the clues found will be reported to the guild first." ”

"Very well, then correspondingly, the guild's side will also let you know about the progress of this matter. Odin said, "You know, this is the custom of the guild, and it will never make unilateral and unreasonable demands. ”

"Yes, always. Catherine smiled, "That's the kind of fairness I'm looking for." ”

Odin got up and looked at the four members of the adventure group in turn, and when he arrived at Pannis, he looked at him with a particularly strange look, until Pannis lowered his eyelids and nodded imperceptibly, and then he leaned back in his chair with satisfaction: "In addition, the incident of the sacrifice of the evil god you encountered a few months ago, I came a step late and did not catch up with the murderer. However, regarding the Shadow Hand commission this time, they have officially applied for a secret mission in the guild, so I have also received a report. Guilds and Shadow Hand rarely work together, so I hope you'll put aside your hatred of evil and complete this commission this time around. ”

"President, although I am disgusted with the Shadow Hand, I am not bored with the two people who will be working with me. Catherine explained, "The two of them are not like the other thieves. ”

"I don't mean them. Odin paused, shook his head, and said, "Forget it, you'll understand when you get to the City of Innocence." Hehe, the city of innocence, what a good name. ”

"All I can say is that I try to do what you ask for. Catherine said, "But I can't guarantee it. ”

"It doesn't matter, just do your best, after all, no one can make a guarantee that the task will be completed, so it's all empty lies. After Odin finished speaking, he fell silent again, and seemed to be entangled in his heart for a while, before he lowered his voice with some embarrassment and said: "Actually, there is one more thing, I personally want to entrust you with a task, it doesn't take too long, a few days can do." ”

"Speak, please. Catherine said, "What commission?"

"A father's commission. ”
