The mechanical creature 'Du Jue Deng' ran very fast, and its strength was also very great. It pulled the bus that carried thirty to forty people as it ran like a wisp of smoke. Seeing the scenery outside the window flashing past, it stopped and stopped along the way. The passengers got on and off, and in a short while, they passed through the long streets with houses on both sides and arrived at a huge plaza.
Because they were in the car, their field of vision was limited, so Cambrona could not see how big the square was for the time being. However, he knew that the car stopped twice in the square. On the third stop, they arrived at their first stop, the Central Square North Station.
Du Jiadeng would announce the station name at every stop, but it used a simplified name. For example, "Central Square North Station" was called "Square North". This was really strange, but it was not difficult to understand.
When the bus arrived at the station, Cambrona got off the bus with his still confused wife and came to the same green platform.
After leaving the bus, which had a poor view, the Central Square of Void City was immediately reflected in his eyes.
"It's really big!"
At this moment, Cambrona could only say this.
Yes, it was really big!
The Central Square of Void City was really too big!
Just how big was this plaza? He was currently standing on the bus stop on the north side of the square. At a glance, until he could not see clearly, it was all within the scope of the square.
Of course, this was also because of Cambrona's nearsightedness, but even so, the size of the square was enough to make him dumbfounded.
Of course, such a huge square could not be empty. There were many pools, flower beds, and small and medium-sized amusement facilities. There were also many entertainers performing in the open air. Some were singing, some were reciting, some were performing acrobatics, and some were performing magic. He even saw several powerful adventurers performing.
For example, not far away, there was a female ranger who had set up a few targets about fifty steps away from him. Every arrow hit the targets without missing.
Near the targets, there was a swordsman in leather armor practicing his swordsmanship. His swordsmanship was not fast, but every strike was steady and sharp. Cambrona calculated in his mind that if he were to fight the other party, if he could not gain the upper hand with his strength, he would probably be able to last about ten rounds.
On the other side of the target, a bare-chested barbarian was also performing. His acting method was very crude. He just let the normal tourists hit him with a thick wooden stick. One by one, the tall men struggled to hold a wooden stick that was thicker than an arm, and smashed it heavily on his body. Although he was often smashed back, he was not injured at all.
To an ordinary person, this scene was probably just interesting, but Cambrona's eyelids were twitching.
(Oh my god, am I seeing things? That should be the Barbarian's special ability, Damage Reduction. To be able to train Damage Reduction to such a level, this person must have already stepped into the higher realms, right? A high-grade adventurer was actually a street performer? My eyes really do need to be treated …)
When he saw the performers on the other side, Cambrona even suspected that there was something wrong with his brain and that he was hallucinating.
They were Mages, and they were casting spells that were at least at the Intermediate level.
Unlike the adventurers who focused on fighting, Spellcasters generally had a good life and a stable income. They did not need and could not go to the streets to perform, especially those who had already passed the most difficult period of the low-level Mages and stepped into the Intermediate level.
Every Intermediate Mage had at least the wealth of a low-level noble. Many Intermediate Mages were richer than most knights, and might even be close to the level of a Baron. Cambrona could not imagine that a Baron would go to the streets to perform — and from their expressions, they seemed to be very happy.
Why was this happening? Shouldn't Intermediate Mages be building or preparing to build their own Magic Towers? No matter how poor they were, at least they would have a magic laboratory of their own!
Why would a Intermediate Mage come out of a laboratory and perform on the streets?
"Something must be wrong with this world …" Cambrona muttered in a low voice. Too lazy to look anymore, he closed his eyes and leaned weakly against the pillar of the bus stop.
As a resident of the Commonwealth of Mifata, the education he had received since he was a child was that "all things are inferior, but only Mages are superior." Now that he had witnessed with his own eyes a few respectable middle-ranked mages — or perhaps even higher than middle-ranked mages — actually performing on the streets like wandering adventurers, this scene had dealt a heavy blow to his spirit.
Because of the blow, Cambrona seemed to be in a trance when he took the next bus to the Tree of God station in the direction of the Northern Square. He walked as if he was walking on cotton, swaying and unsteady.
If he had been alone, he might have tripped and fallen. Fortunately, Jane was by his side, and she was very concerned about him.
With Jane's support, he finally got over the dizziness and calmed down.
"Every place is different. The wild vegetables that can be found everywhere in the South may be a delicacy in the North; the shoals of fish in the Northern Frozen Lake, any one of them can be sold at a high price in a restaurant in the South … If food is like this, what about people?"
Cambrona muttered to himself and slowly calmed down.
Of course, this was also thanks to the green light in the air.
After getting off the bus from the Tree of God station, the first thing he felt was coolness and comfort.
This coolness did not come from his skin, but from his soul. What made his soul feel cool was the green light in the air.
They came from the lush canopy of the tree overhead, which almost covered the sky. Not too far ahead was a huge tree trunk that required at least twenty to thirty people to hold hands in order to form a circle around it.
When he saw the huge tree, Cambrona felt as if his heart had been washed by clear water. All kinds of messy thoughts were washed away, and he completely recovered his usual calmness and steadiness.
He turned to look at his wife. The confusion on his wife's face had disappeared. Although there was still some confusion in her eyes, she seemed to be much more spirited.
"Jane, what you felt just now, was it this tree?" he asked.
"Yes … No …" Jane first nodded, then shook her head. She frowned and thought for a while, then said uncertainly, "Inside the tree … What attracted me was inside the tree."
Cambrona froze for a moment. Holding his wife's hand, they came to the Tree of God together.
He looked carefully at the thick tree trunk, but he couldn't find a single crack on it, nor could he find a place to hide anything.
"Are you sure you're not mistaken? This tree should be intact, "he said.
Jane shook her head hard. "No! It's not like that! Inside the tree! Something in the tree is calling me! "
She suddenly became agitated. She shook off Cambrona's hand, clenched her hands into fists, and slammed them on the trunk. "Open it! Open it! Open it for me! "
Cambrona was shocked. He hurriedly grabbed her arm and dragged her back. However, Jane, who was usually weak, burst out with astonishing power at this moment. Even though he was a knight, he couldn't stop her. Instead, he staggered back a few steps and almost fell to the ground after being flung away by her.
"Jane! What's wrong with you?! "He was shocked and scared, and shouted," What's wrong? "
"It's nothing. She's just unnecessarily affected." Another voice answered him. A green jellyfish appeared in front of them, stopped Jane with its tentacles, rolled her up, and sent her back to Cambrona.
Cambrona hurriedly saluted and paid his respects to the great Void Mask.
"I'm glad you came so quickly," Sui Xiong said with a smile. "Her situation is actually very simple, but I really don't know how to explain it to you … Or, I can tell you the truth, but are you really sure you need to know the so-called 'truth'?"
He smiled and looked at Cambrona, who was shocked and uncertain, and Jane, who, even though she was wrapped up by the tentacles, still tried to move forward and smash the Tree of God.
"Behind the truth is often extremely heavy. Cambrona, are you mentally prepared to bear that weight? "
Cambrona was shocked. He looked at the smiling Void Mask, and then looked at Jane, who seemed to be crazy and desperately trying to move forward. He fell into deep thought.
He thought for a long time, and finally let out a long breath. He said, "I've decided. I don't want to ask for the truth."
"Who was Jane in the past? What background does she have? What kind of grievances did she have? Or was she carrying a mission? Of course, I want to know all of this, "he said. "But I'm very clear about one thing: the past is the past. For us, it's really important to seize the present and strive for a better future."
"If the 'past' will become our burden, then let it be completely in the past. I don't want to ask anything, and I don't want to know anything."
After saying this, his whole body relaxed, and the heavy worry that had been pressing on his heart disappeared.
In fact, all these years, he had been worried and afraid.
What kind of person was his wife? Why did His Majesty Void Mask suddenly come to find him? And why did he say those words?
He didn't understand why, but he was very clear that there must be a shocking secret behind it.
His wife had been in a coma for more than ten years, and it was probably related to this secret. The legendary Master Tuya 'an suddenly changed his attitude and was willing to help him probably because of this secret. Even His Majesty Void Mask came to find him again and pointed him to Void City to see the Tree of God, most likely because of this secret.
What exactly was this secret?
Of course, he was curious, and of course he wanted to know this secret. But compared with curiosity, he wanted to return to the stable and peaceful life of the past.
He was just an ordinary mortal, and he just wanted to live an ordinary life. No matter what secret Jane had, it was not worth destroying the stable life that was about to be restored.
For the sake of their peaceful and happy future, secrets and whatnot, just let them go with the wind!
