"Barbaric and … more barbaric?"
Venia did not expect Elvin to give such an answer. Her beautiful blue eyes suddenly widened. Although she looked shocked, she was still cute in the eyes of others.
In fact, he had asked this question to many people he met on his journey who he felt were very intelligent.
Some people answered that it was the firm belief of the mainlanders! Some said that it was advanced culture! Some said that it was powerful technology! Some even said that the mainlanders were nobler than the natives!
Elvin's answer, however, crudely swept all the seemingly reasonable answers into the trash.
He stood from a very objective and neutral point of view, explaining the nature of the colonized and colonized situation!
This time, it was the girl's turn to fall into "deep thought". After a long time, she raised her head again and revealed a relaxed smile.
The answer that she had been looking for for so many years was actually so simple?
The so-called civilized country and the primitive natives were not fundamentally different. Stripped of the dignified and beautiful clothes, the various advantages on the surface of a civilized country were just derivatives built on the advantage of strength.
Her journey to find the answer was in the wrong direction.
Even if she could learn all the achievements of the Old Continent's civilization and transplant them all to her hometown.
But could she imagine the people there throwing away the spirits of their ancestors and thousands of years of customs, wearing formal clothes, greeting each other with the etiquette of the mainland, and drinking afternoon tea?
How long would it take to build a scientific foundation from scratch and then grow to the point where the mainland could build strong ships and cannons?
It was more likely that they were not acclimatized …
If Elvin knew what she was thinking, he would definitely provide her with a more vivid example.
In his previous life, the dinosaurs that ruled the earth for hundreds of millions of years never developed intelligence and technology like humans, who had only existed for a few million years. Could it be that they had failed in evolution?
However, they had perfectly adapted to the environment and were present in every corner of the world. They had been at the top of the food chain for 55 times longer than humans. How could such an achievement be considered a failure?
Who dared to say that sharp claws and strong bodies were not another victory of evolution?!
Of course, if there was a space-time disorder, it would give humans and dinosaurs a chance to go head-to-head.
At that time, the overlords of the two eras would probably be able to use guns and claws to determine the winner.
Seeing that Venia had finally come back to her senses, Elvin didn't realize how much of an impact his words had on her. Any joker in his previous life was a hundred times more eloquent than him!
"This topic that concerns the future of our race is too far away from us. Even the king of a country can't guide the direction of the civilization. It's more realistic to do our own things well.
If your study tour in Niske is over, you are welcome to come to New Haven in Faletis. As the landlord, I will show you the scenery of another country.
The most special thing is that there are many more factories with steam engines than here! "
After solving her problem, the girl's face regained its initial radiance. After thanking Elvin for his invitation, she suddenly thought of something.
"By the way, I've been paying attention to you for a long time.
Hey, I just drew this. I'll give it to you! "
As the girl spoke, she pulled out a piece of paper from the portfolio she had been carrying on her back and handed it to Elvin.
It was a very vivid sketch.
At the bottom left corner of the picture was an artist holding a violin and playing affectionately.
In the main part, next to the stone bridge under the sun, a young man with a straight posture stood quietly and listened to the moving music very carefully.
The young man's handsome face was slightly raised, and there was a faint smile at the corner of his mouth. His closed eyes were sparkling and translucent.
It seemed like he was immersed in some beautiful memory and couldn't extricate himself for a long time.
At the bottom right corner of the painting, there was a line of small words written in beautiful handwriting – "Reminiscence of a Young Man".
"This …"
Elvin looked at the sketch. It was indeed himself, but his age was obviously a few years younger than the sixteen years old him. He might only be around ten years old.
The girl stuck out her tongue embarrassedly. "When I saw you in deep thought, I thought the you in the painting might be the one in your memory. So … "
Elvin finally understood why there were so many tourists in the square. Why did this girl with such an outstanding temperament and appearance find him?
It turned out that he had unknowingly become her model once.
However, the depiction of this painting was very vivid, especially his expression of happiness mixed with longing at that time. It was deeply engraved into the wood and very lifelike.
"It's okay, thank you Venia! It's a great painting, I like it a lot. "
Elvin carefully rolled it up and held it in his hand, ready to treasure this moment of his true feelings.
After the memories of his previous life awakened, how long had it been since his "strong" self shed tears?
He put his hand into his trouser pocket (which was actually the magic pocket in his trouser pocket) and pretended to dig around. He took out a 'silver talisman' that could be used to defend against negative energy and mental attacks and handed it to Venia.
"Miss Venia, this is my gift in return. It's just a talisman. As a blessing from a friend, please accept it!"
In the world of Transcendents, all kinds of "mysticism" were also very popular in the world of ordinary people. Talismans were also "mysticism items" that were widely available and sought after by mortals.
However, it was different from the so-called "mystical item shops" in the mortal world that could only be sold as psychological comfort. This was a genuine Transcendental talisman.
It was also a premium item that Elvin, who did not have the ability to make himself at the moment, had obtained from the "Crow Bazaar" earlier!
"Thank you, Mr. Elvin!"
As if she did not realize the value of this talisman, Venia took it and hung it on her belt.
After chatting happily for a while, it was gradually approaching noon.
Out of politeness and gentlemanly manner, Elvin wanted to invite Venia to lunch, but he was very surprised by the girl's rejection.
"I'm sorry, let's have a chance next time.
I have an appointment with an oil painting teacher to visit his house at noon. It's about time, I have to go first! "
"Oh, that's really a pity."
Thus, under the bright sun, the handsome young man and the beautiful girl waved goodbye by the bridge.
The scenery was so beautiful that it could be painted.
Before parting.
Elvin left the address of the "New Haven" Royal Naval College as a contact point.
Venia told Elvin that she might stay in Water City for a while and that she would tell him where her hometown was the next time they met.
"It's nice to meet you, Mr. Elvin! We had a good chat today! "
"Me too, Miss Venia. Goodbye!"
Seeing Venia's graceful figure disappear at the end of his sight, Elvin immediately put the drawing paper in his hand into the "magic pocket".
Then he felt a little strange. Towards this very cute girl, he did have the kind of reluctance to part with beautiful things, but more of it was an indescribable sense of … relief!
Because …
For some reason, he always felt an inexplicable sense of oppression when he was with this beautiful girl who was like a forest elf.
It was like standing alone on a rock at the top of a ten-thousand-meter cliff against the wind. Even if he knew that there was no danger, he could not help but feel afraid of the high altitude.
But the very sensitive spiritual perception did not give him any feedback of danger this time.
He could only guess that it might be because he had not been alone with a strange and beautiful girl for too long and was a little nervous.
Until now.
Ai Wencai discovered that in the records of his "Data Analyzing Vision", his physical fitness attribute had actually undergone an obvious and sudden increase just now.
The most obvious point was "Spiritual Strength".
Scientifically consuming the "Fruit of Essence" had made his spiritual attribute steadily increase.
Now it had finally reached 0.99 from 0.84 after the "Navy Rising Star Mission", which already had the foundation to light up the eighth origin, "Glory".
Looking at the time of the last big jump, it was exactly more than an hour ago when he heard the violin song called "Meditation" and fell into deep longing for his family.
The world of idealism was so magical. A violin song was actually worth a few months of hard meditation!
After this.
As long as he completed the three prerequisites of the apprentice stage, for Elvin it was mainly the "Psychic Potion" and the "Wild Talisman", he could hold the advancement ceremony and achieve the transformation to a Grade 2 official wizard!
However, Elvin who had received an unexpected surprise did not notice.
In an alley not far from him, the girl who was carrying a picture frame and talking with him just now had all the expression on her face faded away, like a very delicate doll.
Looking back at the place where Elvin was standing across the wall, she raised her slender hand and gently touched her pale pink lips.
"So the one with the aura of the" Golden Compass "is actually a Garriott? There is a very interesting guy in this generation … Is he more barbaric? Maybe he is an excellent "adventurer" that Thetis needs … "
While talking, with the slight fluctuation of her emotions, the deeply hidden aura in her body slightly overflowed.
The "Silver Talisman" on her belt suddenly spontaneously combusted, and in the blink of an eye, it had burned into a pile of dark residue.
