Everything happened so quickly that Jon and Cecatly didn't even have time to react.
How could it happen so quickly?
No matter how they thought about it, this matter shouldn't have happened so quickly. Even if they hadn't had any newcomers for two days, and the Inferno had been completely annihilated by that big boss, the other two places shouldn't have disappeared so quickly.
"It's probably because there are enough people."
"What?"
Lora looked at the moon in the sky and suddenly felt her eyelids twitching. "Big sister, what did you just say?"
"Nothing, these things … Since it has come to this, we can only accept it."
Cecatly wasn't as relaxed as when she was comforting Jon. On the other hand, Jon accepted it faster. "She means that enough people have died in the first stage, and the rest should gather in the central city. I guess it's probably because that big boss in the Inferno killed too many people. If he didn't kill so many people, I'm afraid it wouldn't have ended so quickly."
"From what you said, this is a happy thing. Why is big sister frowning?"
"She's frowning because of something else. Don't worry about this, you guys don't have to worry. After entering this stage, we'll be safe until we reach the central city."
She casually comforted them and asked them to return to the house and wait.
Jon accompanied Cecatly and stood there looking at the moon.
"According to my usual routine, I'll probably say some sentimental words here because this kind of scene is most suitable for a girl's state of mind. But we're too familiar with each other, and I don't see you as a girl, so there's a lot less to say."
"You're using this kind of joke to make me laugh. You know I won't fall for it."
Although Cecatly said this, the expression on her face was no longer as gloomy as before.
"Speaking of which, if you use this kind of trick to chase girls, you won't get a girlfriend in this life."
"It doesn't matter. Anyway, this isn't my ambition. I never planned to spend my life with a girl. Magic is my life's pursuit."
Jon didn't back down. "Besides, with your personality, can you really find a man?"
"It's none of your business."
"After all, we are best friends, so let me remind you. After we go out, we may not be able to meet again. It's better for you to change your character. You can't always be like this. Although you are very lucky to have met me, are you sure you can maintain this luck until the future?"
"You don't have to worry about that. We're all single, so why do we have to provoke each other?"
"That's right. In any case, every extra day counts as a gain. The most important thing is to be happy."
After saying this, Jon shut his mouth.
It wasn't that he hadn't been in a relationship before. He had once loved a girl. He had been entangled with her for a long time, but in the end, it didn't end well. Later on, he got over it. What's the point of being in a relationship? Being single was the happiest.
Cecatly was not very clear about this past because he had never told anyone about it. However, she could more or less guess that Jon was not in a good mood right now. As his best friend, she could not say anything to upset him at this time.
They were all smart people. Sometimes, it was necessary to maintain an appropriate amount of calmness.
Especially in this situation, they couldn't help but let their emotions get the better of them.
There were some things that Cecatly wanted to tell Jon early on, but due to various concerns, she didn't have the opportunity to do so in the end.
It seemed that Jon was quite smart and had already guessed it.
Now, it seemed that they were nearing the end of this trip.
If this trip could be considered a trip, then it would be.
She told herself silently in her heart.
"It's almost over."
…
Was it really over so easily?
At least, Jon didn't think so.
There were many things that they hadn't deciphered yet, so it was still far from over.
Bringing so many people to the central city at the same time was not an easy task in the small world, so it took a lot of effort.
During this time, Jon sat on a chair in the training ground and looked at the moon.
The moon was beautiful, but this beauty had no meaning.
There were many established rules and principles in this world, and these principles were clearly laid out there. No matter who it was, as long as they existed in this world, there was no way to distort them.
Sometimes, thinking too much was not pretentious, but meticulous. One wrong step could cost one's life. No one could really take such a terrible thing lightly. In this kind of thing, he might have been reckless in the past, but now he wouldn't. After pulling out the part of Helga's bloodline from his body and sealing it in his soul, this part of bloodline could no longer bring him any positive influence.
Originally, he had two kinds of bloodlines in his body, the Mystic Bird bloodline and the World Tree bloodline of the Hufflepuff family balanced each other, so his situation could reach a very good stable state. This stable state allowed him to maintain absolute rationality, and then use the appropriate ability at the appropriate time.
But now it was different.
A big tree was forcibly pulled out of his body. Although there was no pain, this also removed the stable power represented by the World Tree from his body.
The power of the Mystic Bird was radical. After all, in order to find a way forward in all kinds of crises, blindly stabilizing was not advisable.
Moreover, Jon himself did not have enough control of the power of the Mystic Bird.
He only used it roughly because no one taught him how to use this power. Although Helga was a god and could comprehend by analogy, there was also a limit to it.
So now, the Mystic Bird's bloodline had a great impact on his current personality. It could be seen from the fact that he chose to directly kill those people instead of leaving one or two alive for interrogation.
Cecatly also had a general understanding of his current situation, so she chose to temporarily avoid him. When the bloodline in his body calmed down, he would naturally return to his rational state.
And perhaps this tacit understanding moved the external environment, or perhaps things had developed to this point, anyway, when Jon stood up from the chair, the surrounding scenery had stopped moving.
Or rather, the training ground they were in had stopped moving. The sky had become clear, and the moonlight had become fainter and fainter, as if the sun had risen.
And standing here, Jon could clearly feel the heat coming from the south.
There were also traces of the distortion of time and space.
