Chapter 252 The meeting of stars is not over yet.
"Aliya, do you want to watch Phantom together tonight? I, I got the tickets!" The young man from the small town came to the window of his beloved girl and raised his two hands stumblingly. A phantom ticket.
Aaliya in the bungalow was dressing up in front of the mirror nonchalantly, but she turned around when she heard that the young man from the town had bought a phantom ticket.
The face full of freckles became slightly excited: "You got the phantom ticket, is it true, is it "Romeo and Juliet"?" "Yes, yes." The young man in the town happily
waved the phantom ticket in his hand, " The Phantom Opera House in town has just opened. There is only this Phantom today. I added money and grabbed two consecutive seats from the factory workers." "
That's great, Barris, I promise you tonight Let's go see "Romeo and Juliet" together!" Aaliyah nodded happily and agreed, "I've wanted to see "Romeo and Juliet" for a long time, but unfortunately the tickets were sold out a week in advance!" "Yeah!" Barris said with force
. He clenched his fists and said, "Then I'll go to work first. I'll pick you up after work." "
Okay, go to work quickly. I have to go to work too."
Looking at Barris running away happily, Ai Liya quickly put on her makeup and then went out to work. Arriving at a factory outside the town with billowing black smoke, Aaliya quickly put on a mask and walked into one of the factories.
There are female workers in the factory, standing in front of the machine assembly line, responsible for tightening the covers of lamps.
This is a lighting production factory.
"Alia, you're here." The workers greeted her, and then each came to their respective posts to replace the previous worker.
There are no job changes, and the factory is open almost 24 hours a day.
The female workers were chatting and busy with their work, and an hour passed before they knew it. At this time, someone started talking about the new Phantom Opera House in town.
"My friend went to see it at the Phantom Opera House yesterday. She said 'Romeo and Juliet' was so beautiful, even better than the novel!" said a female worker.
"Really? I want to go see it too, but I can't get a ticket."
"Where are the tickets? All the tickets will be gone after a week. The Phantom Opera House has three halls, but only one hall can show the phantom film. ."
"Then why, what about the other two halls?"
"I heard that there are not enough phantom card rolls. The phantom card rolls in this hall were obtained by the arcane mage from the town. "The female worker said regretfully, "It's a pity that we don't live in Fengxi Area. At the beginning of the new year there, we watched "Romeo and Juliet"!" "Yes, "
Romeo and Juliet" was filmed by DreamWorks. It is said that Duke Sage is a company that has made many fantasy films." "
Duke Sage is so handsome. I heard he is even more handsome than Romeo in Phantom!" "
It's a pity that everything is so slow in our place. The fantasy films are all out. It's been more than a year since we opened the first Phantom Opera House here, and we still can't get tickets!" "
Who told us to be far away from Duke Sage's hometown? One is in the Fengxi Domain in the west, and the other is in Zhuozhao in the east. The field is thousands of miles away! If it wasn't too far away, I would like to go to DreamWorks to have a look."
After hearing this, Aaliya, who had been silent, suddenly said: "I want to go to DreamWorks tonight. I'm going to see "Romeo and Juliet."
"Hey, do you have a ticket?" The coworker next to me suddenly exclaimed.
"Someone asked me to see Phantom. Where can I get a ticket?" Alia said with a smile.
"Wow, who asked you, let me guess, it can't be Newland, right? Isn't it, that's Lipton? No, oh, I know, it's Barris, right!" Aaliya didn't deny it
now .
However, in the face of the booing from her co-workers, she just smiled and said: "It's just a fantasy video. I have nothing to do with him. Don't talk nonsense. It will be misunderstood." "Don't worry, we
will Why are you talking nonsense?"
After the female worker finished speaking, she turned to another female worker and looked at each other with disdain on their faces.
at the same time.
In another building of the factory, Barris was communicating with his good buddy at the top of his voice amidst the noisy sound of machines.
"I got a date with Aaliya!"
"Okay, Barris, I got Aaliya here without saying a word."
"Not yet, but soon. I spent a lot of money this time, two months' salary. I gave it away just to grab two phantom films of "Romeo and Juliet."
"No, two months' salary?" The good friend clicked his tongue, "You are exaggerating. I won't be nervous about the tickets in a few days. It's just three days' salary at most to buy it again!"
"So you don't understand." Barris shouted in a leisurely manner, "I have read reports, and there are many couples who have just watched "Romeo and Juliet" At the gate of the Opera House, go to the Union Tower to register for marriage!"
After that, he leaned into the ear of his good friend and said: "The most important thing is that after watching "Romeo and Juliet", many people brought their girlfriends in directly. Hotel!"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk!" The good friend was itching to be provoked, "Real or fake, as for that, it's just a fantasy film!" "
What do you know!" Barris suddenly raised his hand and pointed at the wall of the factory. There is an authorization certificate attached, "Did you see the content above? Our factory has been granted the patent right to use strong light technology by the erudite sage Duke." "What, what does
this have to do with it?"
"Du "K, Master Duke!" Barriss looked at a fool, ""Romeo and Juliet" is a story written by Master Duke and made into a fantasy film. Master Duke, do you know, the spiritual favorite of the Seven Towers Federation? A master!"
After saying this, the good friend understood: "Yes, spirituality loves Master Duke, and "Romeo and Juliet" is the guide of spirituality!" "So you understand,
you are not chasing after Lilian? You haven't gotten it in a month? Take advantage of the fact that tickets for "Romeo and Juliet" are hard to buy. Hurry and grab two. Maybe you can take Lillian to live together in a rental house tomorrow! Don't blame me for not passing on my experience to you." Good buddy
. The itching was unbearable, but his face looked tangled: "Let's talk about it, let's talk about it, if two months' salary is wasted, I will drink the northwest wind..." "
What are you talking about!" A bearded supervisor suddenly came over and said, He scolded the two of them sternly, "If you don't work hard during working hours, who gave you the right to chat here!"
The two could only apologize and please.
He secretly stuffed a pack of cigarettes over.
The bearded supervisor then scolded with a cold face: "Hurry up and work, and next time, everyone will lose one day's salary!"
Barris and his good buddies stopped talking.
He worked hard until the end of the day. After saying hello, Barris hurriedly left the factory and waited for Aaliya at the factory gate.
Then head straight to the new Phantom Opera House in town.
"I bought soda and melon seeds." Aaliya found her seat and opened her handbag. "They said it's best to bring soda and melon seeds when watching a fantasy movie." "Ah,
Aaliya, you are so attentive. I , I didn't expect this at all." Barris looked at the screening room full of people and became nervous inexplicably.
Aaliya's face, which was neither beautiful nor ugly, was particularly alluring in his eyes.
Fortunately, the opening didn't last long, and soon the lights dimmed and projection images began to appear on the big screen.
Alia began to watch the movie seriously.
But Barris always thought about Alia and was a little absent-minded about the story on the big screen.
However, as the story gradually reaches its climax, Barris's absent-mindedness has completely disappeared, and the whole person is attracted by the story. Although this scene has the style of a drama performance, it is so real that people can't help but get deeply involved in it.
Fantasy films shot in real scenes are more suitable for ordinary people to experience than drama performances.
Alia and Barris, as well as the other audiences in the screening room, were all silent, closely following the joys and sorrows of the characters in the phantom.
In the dark corner.
An old arcanist mage and a middle-aged knight, seeing that there was no empty seat in the hall, exchanged words in a low voice with satisfaction.
"Opening the Phantom Opera House is the most correct choice the family has made recently. Not only residents of this town are willing to buy tickets to watch, but even residents of the next town come to grab tickets." "It's a pity that the Phantom card is hard to get, uncle, please help
me We only got one volume."
"There's nothing we can do about it. The Wind Breath Realm is too far away from our Burning Light Realm, especially since DreamWorks is still on the border. But it doesn't matter. Looking at the current momentum, Phantom Film There is a lot of potential, local film and television companies have already launched, and we will be able to show our own phantom films soon." "
Yes, three film and television companies have been established in the city recently. It is said that the Spirit Factory has also obtained the patent authorization for phantom cartridges and is stepping up production. With the equipment, we should be able to make phantom films by the end of the year."
"I'm afraid it will be difficult."
"Why is that?" "
As far as I know, the phantom cartridges and photography equipment produced by the Spiritual Weapon Factory need to be supplied to the Five Towers first. Only when there is excess production capacity can it be provided to film and television companies." The old Master Ao said with emotion, "This is a great natural history invention, and phantoms are just the simplest use, compared to storing knowledge." "Use phantoms to store
spirituality Arcane knowledge?" The great knight thought thoughtfully.
"Images are three-dimensional and dynamic. The knowledge of spiritual arcana that cannot be carried by words in the past can be realized with phantoms... In the foreseeable future, the spread of spiritual arcana will be carried out in a more violent way with film and television technology. ."
The old arcanist master said, and sighed again: "No wonder Duke Sage invented film and television technology, and the Erudite Supreme Tower immediately awarded him the title of Erudite Sage. The adults look at technology from a longer perspective than us, so we can only Only when the fantasy video is filmed can you feel the power of it."
The great knight suddenly thought of something: "Uncle, have you read this morning's "Seven Towers Daily"? I saw it said that Duke Sage invented the Ring of Brand again. You can copy spirit cards, but the price of spirit cards will probably plummet in the future." The
old arcanist glanced at the great knight strangely, and asked: "Torres, after you read the introduction of the Ring of Brand, your only thought is that the price of spirit cards will rise. Is it plummeting?"
Faced with the old man's question.
Torres smiled awkwardly: "Well, the price of the puppet and the contract should... also drop, right?" The old
arcanist mage suddenly lost all interest.
He waved his hand and left the dim screening room: "Let's go, I'm a little tired."
After leaving the Phantom Opera House, the old man seemed to have thought of something and said: "By the way, about your idea of being transferred back to the town to serve. My suggestion is to give up this idea. The family's mercenary group cannot do without you, Torres, continue to go to the forest to grab resources." "
Uncle..." Torres still wanted to plead, but the old arcanist had already left quickly.
He stood there for a while.
Torres still couldn't think clearly: "Did I say something wrong? The Ring of Brand... The newspaper said that the Ring of Brand can copy spirit cards, puppet cores, formation disks, and contracts? If it can be copied in large quantities, the price will naturally plummet. Huh?"
After thinking about it carefully, Torres didn't think he was wrong.
Since he was right, someone else must have been wrong: "Uncle, there must be something wrong with his brain!" At
this time, the door of the Phantom Opera House opened, and a group of men and women with red eyes or in tears came out.
Torres was too lazy to meet these civilians and left directly.
He muttered in his heart: "I proposed to open the Phantom Opera House, and the facts have proved my vision. I am definitely no worse at managing the entire town than Thomas! My uncle is still partial and is afraid that I will snatch his illegitimate son Thomas's mayor's seat!"
"It's so abominable!"
"This selfish family!" Torres cursed and left.
On the other side, Barris also hugged Aaliya, whose eyes were red from crying, left the crowd and walked towards his rental house.
"Wipe your tears, Aria."
"It's so touching. Romeo died for Juliet, and Juliet died for Romeo, and even turned into butterflies after death to be together!" "
Yes, touching!" Barris nodded heavily. , he wanted to cry when he saw it.
"But why is Mr. Duke so cruel and insists on writing Romeo and Juliet to death? Why can't he let them run away together and find a place where they won't be disturbed to spend the rest of their lives happily?" Barris agreed:
" Yes, Mr. Duke is so cruel."
Aaliya suddenly raised her head and looked at Barris seriously: "If one day, I die, Barris, will you die for me?"
No.
Barriss learned the lines in Phantom and said affectionately: "Of course, Aaliyah, you are my everything!"
Aaliyah pulled Barriss' arm emotionally: "Go to your house, hurry up!"
Barriss Si's eyes widened and he felt that his blood pressure was already soaring. He grabbed Aaliya with his backhand and ran quickly towards his rental house.
At the same time, in my heart, I thank you a thousand times and ten thousand times.
"Thank you, Master Duke. In the future, when you make fantasy videos, you can make them even more miserable." ...The
Knight
's Monastery is a subordinate organization of the Supreme Tower of Magical Spirits and is responsible for coordinating the management of all knight's monasteries in the entire federation.
And promote the way of knights and teach the blood sea practice.
The Knights Monastery is not in the Holy City of Offa, but in Pegasus Island City, one of the lakeside cities. Like Blue Whale Bay City, it is a satellite city that protects the Holy City of Offa.
However, the population size is not smaller than the central city in one area.
It can also be said that the Holy City of Offa and its surrounding eighteen satellite cities account for nearly a quarter of the population of the Seven Towers Federation.
The area around Whale Song Mirror Lake is the largest human habitat currently developed by the Seven Towers Federation.
"Pegasus Island City is the city with the largest number of registered knights among the eighteen lakeside cities. The arcane mages living here are basically both spiritual and blood cultivators, and they also have the status of knights." Yanis Bing Crown, greet Duke at the appointed place.
"Indeed, I saw many knights dressed as mercenaries along the way, as well as quite a few mercenary regiment headquarters."
Duke smiled and raised his head, looking at the sign of the Knight's Monastery in front of him.
There is no gorgeous and huge castle complex as imagined. The Knights' Monastery is like a dilapidated knight's manor thousands of years ago.
"Many people like to call us Laoqi." Yanis is no longer as charming as last night. She is wearing leather armor and looks dashing and heroic.
"I have heard of it."
"We do not deny this title, but it is a sin to say that we miss the age of knights. No one will miss the age of knights, otherwise our ancestors would not leave the Empire of Stormwind or follow Abo Sage Ci founded the Seven Towers Federation, or went away to live in the Ice and Snow Kingdom."
"Indeed." Duke responded calmly.
Godiva Stormsword will meet directly at the Knight's Monastery rather than at his mage tower on the lakeside.
Now Agnes Ice Crown is leading him to the meeting place in the Knight's Monastery.
"To be precise, Laoqi is a group of arcane mages with dual cultivation of spirit sea and blood sea, a group maintained by their love for the way of knights." Yanis said, looking at Duke again, "So, Duke My lord, you have a natural identity as an old knight."
"Haha, you are wrong about this. I am not a dual practitioner of the spirit sea and blood sea. I am a fellow practitioner of the three seas. I can be an old knight, or... um, Is there any group of spiritual plant envoys similar to Laoqi?" Duke asked with a smile.
"I've never heard of this, but there is a spiritual pet alliance, which is formed by arcane mages who have contracted elves. They regularly exchange experiences on elven cultivation." "Oh, really, where can I join this alliance?" Duke came
. Interested.
"Mr. Duke, have you contracted with an elf?" Yanis asked curiously.
"Of course."
"You are really... great, fellow cultivator from the Three Seas. You can achieve such achievements in the sea of blood and sea of qi. It's really admirable." Yanis complimented her sincerely, and then said, "Spiritual Pet Alliance's The headquarters is located in Mangrove City, where there is a mangrove park, which is where the headquarters is located." "
Yes." Duke nodded.
Then he turned to Mulali and said, "Little Lili, write down the address, look back at my schedule, and find some free time to visit the Spiritual Pet Alliance." "Okay, sir." Soon, the group
of
people He came to a dilapidated fortress in the Knights' Monastery. Godiva, Storm Sword and other veteran knights were already waiting in front of the fortress to greet him.
"Welcome from afar, Sage Duke." Godiva patted his chest and performed a knightly etiquette.
Duke returned the favor with a knighthood.
Then he greeted several other old knights one by one, and was welcomed into the dilapidated fortress. It was dilapidated on the outside but very luxurious and luxurious on the inside.
"Sir Dunn is holding a meeting of stars. The meeting seems to be discussing Duke Sage, your new card-making sage title." Godiva explained, "Now it has been confirmed that you will be canonized as card-making sage. The meeting of stars should be very soon. It's over, Lord Dunn will come in person."
Lord Dunn is the dean of the Knight's Monastery, Dunn Dragon Lance.
His ancestor was the great nobleman of the Stormwind Empire who created the fighting spirit martial art "Imperial Dragon Cavalry", and he could be called the most experienced cavalry among the old cavalry.
Today's "Imperial Dragoon Lance" can be said to be a compulsory fighting spirit martial skill for most knights.
Duke also practiced.
Although the Cavaliers have declined.
But the Dragon Cavalry family is still proud of the fighting spirit martial arts pioneered by their ancestors, otherwise they would not have chosen Dragon Cavalry as their noble surname.
As for Dean Dunn Dragonlance, he is a member of the Council of Stars, a 7th-level Morning Star Arcane Instructor, and a 3rd-level Advanced Fantasy Beast Knight.
"Sir Dunn, will you come too? I didn't expect to alarm him." Duke smiled, "Actually, there is nothing important for me to come. I mainly want to inquire about the promotion of the fighting spirit martial art "Duke Feiyu". At present, I I haven't received the increase in fighting spirit yet."
"How can it be so fast?" Godiva laughed, "Not to mention ordinary knights and knights, even us old knights have just succeeded in practicing." "Yes,
currently the Seven Towers The number of knights who have successfully trained in the Federation is probably no more than fifty." Another veteran knight also laughed.
Yanis also said: "Mr. Duke, the "Duke Flying Feather" you created is really difficult. I haven't mastered it for a long time." "It's indeed a bit
difficult." Duke touched his chin.
Fighting martial arts such as "Gamat Shield" are already the ceiling for many great knights. "Duke Feiyu" is several times more difficult than "Gamat Shield". This shows that it is definitely not just any great knight who can rely on spending time. You can practice it.
Even Vivian, who Duke personally taught and taught day and night, has not yet mastered "Duke Feather".
Changing the subject, Duke added: "So I recently took advantage of some time to improve "Duke Feiyu" and created a new simplified version of the fighting spirit martial arts." "What?" Godiva and others were stunned
. .
Then everyone's eyes widened: "You improved "Duke Feiyu" and created new fighting spirit martial arts?" "
Yes, "Duke Feiyu" was too difficult, mainly because when I created it, I wanted to take into account too many contents. , to fly fast and stable, you must also have super high agility to ensure that you can also cope with combat while flying."
Duke sighed pretendingly, and then said: "Considering that most knights may not be able to learn, I will delete some unnecessary content and change flying to assist. The knight may not be able to fly, but as long as he jumps high enough, glides far enough, and sprints faster, he can still provide a large amount of combat effectiveness." "So, you improve it
to What fighting spirit martial arts are you talking about?" Godiva couldn't wait any longer.
""Duke's Leap" is a brand new fighting spirit martial art. It can also be regarded as a reduced version of "Duke's Feather". The overall difficulty is similar to "Gamat's Shield"." Duke stretched out his hand behind, and the assistant Get a book immediately.
Duke put the book on the table and pushed it to Godiva: "Vice Dean Godiva, you can take a look. I'll have to worry about the promotion of the Knights Monastery." "Okay, okay!" Godiva
was
already Absent-mindedly, I gathered around the table with a few old riders and looked through the book "Duke's Leap" that Duke had brought.
Compared with the complexity of "Duke's Feather", "Duke's Leap" is indeed much simpler.
At least everyone here is not a 3-level high-level fantasy beast knight, but also a 2-level fantasy beast knight. Even Agnes Ice Crown is a 2-level fantasy beast knight.
So it looks effortless.
He was even silently running the Dou Qi on the spot, trying to run the Dou Qi path of "Duke's Leap" to see if each place could be fully operational.
Waited for half an hour.
Godiva and other veteran knights unanimously confirmed that this "Duke's Leap" is another fighting spirit martial skill that can rewrite the knight's combat effectiveness.
"Sage Duke, don't worry. I will order someone to register this fighting spirit martial art now and hand it over to the Knight Monastery for promotion." Godiva beat his chest loudly, "You, just wait patiently. Be promoted to the first 4-ring dragon knight in history!"
"I'd like to lend you auspicious words."
"There's no need to borrow any auspicious words from me. Spirituality loves you more than any praise in the world." Godiva said with emotion.
Suddenly something came to mind: "Let's go see if Mr. Dunn is back. The meeting has been over for such a long time, so it's time to come back. After seeing this book "Duke's Leap", Mr. Dunn may not be able to eat, drink or sleep. He also wants to Learn it now."
Someone went.
Soon he came back to report: "There is news from the Union Tower that the meeting of stars is not over yet." "Is
n't it over yet? Is it stuck by some new issue?" Godiva muttered casually.
The staff member gave the answer: "We are still discussing Mr. Duke, but what we are discussing specifically is not clear yet."
"Still discussing me?" Duke was confused.
The title of Card Sage has been discussed and approved. Is it necessary to discuss whether to be knighted? According to the system of the Seven Towers Federation, one needs to actively apply for knighthood.
Later, through pioneering wars and other methods, you can establish meritorious service and be knighted.
If you don't apply for a knighthood, no matter how many military exploits you accumulate, the Union Tower will not be knighted. After all, the gradual abolition of the aristocratic system is the established general direction.
It's just that the special federal system of the Seven Towers Federation restricts the speed of the abolition of the aristocratic system - after all, if the aristocratic system is abolished, medium-sized spiritual springs like market towns will still need to be managed by arcane mages, and power will still be concentrated in the hands of the arcane mages' families.
It's the same as not being abolished. It's better to give him a title and let the arcane mages enjoy it.
Seeing Duke's doubts, Godiva laughed and said: "You have stirred up the situation in the Holy City of Arcana several times. Now even the stars are working overtime and holding meetings for you... Nowadays, in the Seven Towers Federation, who doesn't know Jun."
