There was drizzle falling outside the window, hitting the glass, and curved water traces kept sliding down.
In the room, Sylutia was looking through the thick books in his hands, occasionally raising his head and looking out the gray window.
It has been raining for a long time, the girl thought, but days like this are quite quiet. Because of the rain, there are fewer travelers and teams in the town.
After nurturing Cornflower, Sylutia's life has entered a stable stage. What he does every day is probably dealing with daily affairs, tending flowers and plants in the garden, reading, walking, and studying.
Although this kind of life was good, after several months, she felt it was time to go out for a walk.
During this time, she learned a lot of new things, but unfortunately she stayed at home or in a small town and didn't have much available space.
If an ability is not put into actual use and reaches a certain bottleneck, it will be difficult to improve. This is just like forging swords. If you are always working behind closed doors and do not use the forged swords to participate in actual combat, you will not know where there are problems, where you can continue to improve, and where it is more important and critical.
Standing up, Sylutia put the book away, then walked briskly down the stairs to find an acquaintance in the town.
"Dorothy, are you at home?"
Coming to the closed light-colored door, she knocked and waited for a response.
"Ha~ it's actually Tia." Yawning, Dorothy got out of the bed, and the light blanket slipped off his body.
"Wait a minute, I'll put on my clothes."
After rustling for a while, Dorothy, wearing a fiery red wavy skirt, opened the door and appeared in front of Tia.
Seeing that she was ready to hug him as soon as she opened the door, Sylutia was already prepared to jump away.
"Okay, I have something to ask you today." Sylutia reminded.
"Okay~(╯▽╰)" Dorothy pretended to be sad, then opened the door and let Sylutia in.
After the two of them entered the room and sat down, Dorothy casually brought over the unfinished wine last night and prepared to pour it for himself and Sylutia.
"I don't drink." The girl shook her head repeatedly.
"Oh, Tia is such a good boy." Dorothy sighed, then shook his golden hair, found a pot of Elf nectar from the room, mixed it with water and poured it to Tia.
"Tell me, what's the matter? You came to me specially." Dorothy picked up the wine glass and took a sip, then shook the glass and put it down.
"I'm going to go out on a trip. It shouldn't take long this time, but I still want to trouble you to look after the town."
Nowadays, most of the members in the town are still at the second level, and only a few have just broken through to the third level, but their strength is not Stability, not as good as the genius Alchemy magician in front of them.
"So that's it, I thought it was some big deal." Dorothy blinked, remembering something.
"Oh, by the way, didn't I ask you to bring me Magnetic Sand and Red Stone Iron last time? At that time, I said I wanted to make you a Alchemy prop. I made it a few days ago, but I just kept it there and forgot to give it to you."
After saying that, she got up again, walked to the small Alchemy workshop downstairs, and found a golden sphere larger than a basketball.
"This is "Astrolabe" I made. It can determine the time of year and your geographical location based on the direction of the stars."
"It's not very useful in a small town, but if you venture into World of Shadows's Secret Realm, it can guide you. If you go on a long journey across the continent in the future, it can also help you position yourself so that you won't get lost in the thick fog."
[Ailos Astrolabe] (Level 4·Excellence): The positioning Astrolabe invented by the famous sage Ailos, its principle comes from the ancient "Star-Gazing School", which can be used to determine the current season and location without being obscured by fog.
"Don't underestimate it. This is different from the cheap and shoddy products on the market. I put a lot of effort into making it. It can be regarded as my highest masterpiece so far." Dorothy introduced while wagging his finger.
"General means of determining orientation are easily disturbed by the special environment in the Secret Realm, as well as the heavy fog in the Cloud Sea, which often spans nearly a hundred kilometers and Mist Shadow Aspect Power converges. Many sensing methods will fail in it."
"Last time you said you were looking for the knowledge record of "Star-Gazing School", I just found the design draft from an old book. Although the author is not original, but borrowed from the "Star-Gazing School" theory, the effect is really good."
After listening to Dorothy's description, Sylutia was very interested and placed the golden Astrolabe in front of him to observe carefully.
The outline of the celestial body is outlined on the golden hollow sphere. There are many small holes in it, which correspond to different star positions. Inside are the moving sun and moon trajectories, which can be flipped and rotated freely. In the middle is a completely enclosed metal sphere with a complex part structure inside, which is also the most important part of the entire planetarium.
It can be seen that this thing is extremely cumbersome to make, and it needs to be constantly adjusted and calibrated to the position of the stars. I am afraid that several of them can be made before one is successful. No wonder Dorothy is so proud.
"Thank you." Sylutia carefully picked up Astrolabe, put it into his own Courtyard and put it away.
After chatting about the affairs arrangements in the town, Dorothy asked Sylutia where he wanted to go.
"Well, I'm going to take a trip to the depths of the Dark Mist Mountains."
Compared with the Secret Realm in other stations, there are more resources in the depths of the Dark Mist Mountains, and of course it is more dangerous. You need at least a third-level Transcendent to explore there.
In fact, in such dangerous areas, the frontline station usually organizes a special team to open up the area. Only after the general situation is determined, other students and Transcendent are allowed to enter.
"Is that where it turned out to be?" Dorothy seemed to remember something.
"Speaking of which, you have been coming to the Dark Mist Mountains for two years. It would be a pity if you don't go and explore it. But are you going alone, or find a team?"
"No, I'll take a look alone first." The girl shook her head.
She currently has many secrets that are not suitable for disclosure. If she were to team up with others, she would be constrained.
"Don't worry, I still have some life-saving measures. I was originally worried that I might get lost in there, but with the Astrolabe that Dorothy just gave me, there's no need to be afraid at all."
"In that case, I won't advise you anymore." Dorothy nodded.
"After you go inside, remember to wear the brooch I gave you. It will give you an early warning when you are resting."
"In addition, if you encounter a monster that you can't defeat, run away quickly and don't be reluctant to fight. If you can't come back, I won't be able to hold on for long by myself."
"Finally, if you find something good, remember to share it with me first~"
"Yeah." Sylutia responded with a smile.
"I will remember Dorothy's share."
After leaving Dorothy's residence, Sylutia met with other core members in the town to explain the matters, and then asked everyone to pay attention to Gale Season's various problems.
Finally, she rode the familiar horse Hyacinth Horse and stepped into the wilderness again.
But this time, the direction she wanted to go was to a more sloping area of the land, which was like a Abyss. Under the Cloud Sea that the sun could never reach, there were many Twilight Beast hidden in it, as well as the broken earth and ruins of the ancient era.
This time, Sylutia wants to test the various abilities she has mastered and explore the direction and path of her future development. She has a premonition that the peace on this continent will not last long, and in the future, she will eventually embark on a journey back to her hometown to the First Continent.
