"Next, it's time to witness a miracle..." Qi Ji whispered in the tone of a magician before a performance, and his hand holding the glass apple tightened slightly. At this moment, countless star-like spots emerged from her palms. Like bubbles rising from the bottom of the water, they gurgled up, seeping into the glass apple unhindered, and finally staying in the center of it. Gary's family was immediately shocked by this miraculous change. They all opened their eyes wide in surprise. Only Gary, who was still skeptical, was still carefully pondering how this magic was accomplished. However, everything that happened next gradually dispelled all his doubts. Those scattered and faint spots of light gathered in the center of the glass apple, growing larger and brighter. At the same time, the colors of the light spots also became richer, changing from monotonous white to red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and purple, as brilliant as fireworks. Purple and indigo light occupy the majority, forming the main color of the entire scroll. Lights of other colors are dotted on it, following some indescribable rules, flowing slowly and smoothly inside the glass apple. Then, a large number of tiny black dots emerged out of thin air, and quickly spread out the next second, like a dry rag still on the water. The wet traces expanded irregularly with each point as the center, and finally spread to every corner. When the glass apple was completely dyed with a pure black background, the bright and mysterious colors and light spots were still moving, but the basic orbit had been formed, forming a magnificent and strange three-dimensional painting. A colorful galaxy in the shape of a disk, with countless stars of different lusters slowly rotating around the galactic center.
The galactic center, surrounded by stars, gathers billions of rays of light, and can be vaguely seen as a cluster of countless light balls. "Setting Sun, is this magic?" Mrs. Gary's clear eyes revealed deep admiration, "So beautiful..." Gary, who had always thought that Qi Ji was just a little girl who had watched too many heroic operas and ran out to play role-playing games alone, no longer had any doubts. As an ordinary citizen, such a strange ability was completely beyond his common sense explanation. He could only believe that this young girl was indeed an extraordinary person. "Oh, you're too kind," Qi Ji felt a little uncomfortable with Mrs. Gary's admiring gaze, "It's just a trivial trick..." To be honest, Mrs. Gary is older than her, even if you count her previous life. Being looked at with such admiration by someone who could be called an "elder"... Qi Ji felt half proud and half embarrassed. To ease the embarrassment, she handed over the glittering glass apple in her hand: "Here, it's for you." "Oh, is this really possible?!" Mrs. Gary covered her mouth with one hand and exclaimed like a little girl. "Of course, this isn't something valuable," Qi Ji placed the glittering glass apple on the table in front of Mrs. Gary, "but be careful not to break it... unless you're in danger." "T-thank you so much!" Mrs. Gary's eyes lit up, and although she was polite, she picked it up honestly with her hands. Cautiously but excitedly, he brought it to his eyes and looked left and right, touching every corner of its surface with his smooth, hard, cold and transparent hands, enjoying the smooth, hard, cold and transparent touch. "As expected, married women have no resistance to this kind of shiny and beautiful stuff... Or is this a common trait among humans?" Qi Ji chuckled half-jokingly. Chapter 107 Journey A few minutes later, the food and drinks ordered by Gary's family arrived. While eating, they chatted with Qi Ji. Qi Ji put down the hand that was stroking his sister Daisy's head so as not to disturb her while she was eating. However, seeing her taking small bites of the sandwich and secretly glancing at Qi Ji's cute appearance who didn't eat anything from time to time, Qi Ji couldn't help but want to tease her.
He reached out his hand again, gently stroked the back of her head, then gently smoothed her soft blue hair down to her neck. Then he lifted her hair and gently stroked the back of her neck, kneading and kneading, feeling the tender and delicate touch, just like petting a cat. Daisy's cheeks turned red, but she didn't say anything. Instead, all the muscles in her body were relaxed. She made small sounds from her throat while eating, and seemed to be enjoying it very much. Hehe...so fun... "Little sister, you came out alone... uh, to travel?" Mrs. Gary stirred the coffee with a spoon and added a few grains of salt. "What should I call you?" "My name is..." Qi Ji paused. In Stio, she used her real name "Qi Ji" in front of her acquaintances, and used the pseudonym "Xiron" outside. However, after the blood sacrifice of Augustus, the officials of the Church of Grace will definitely get to the bottom of it. Whether it is the alias "Moon Valley Demon Fighter Xue Lun" or the name "Qi Ji", they will definitely not be able to escape their investigation. When Qi Ji was active in Stio, he did not try too hard to hide his traces. Therefore, if the investigators from the Church of Grace had any professional ability, they would be able to find out that the two code names refer to the same person. Even though it has reached a foreign country, for such a major event, there may be communication between countries and some sharing of information. Therefore, if the same name is used, it might increase the chances of attracting attention from official forces. Why do you make me act like a wanted criminal? Qi Ji smiled silently at himself and responded slowly, "I don't have a real name. You can call me... Yao Liuliu." She was too lazy to think of a pseudonym. After all, there was no guarantee that similar incidents would not happen in the future, which would require her to change her name and surname again. She might as well just use numbers as her pseudonym so that she would never have to worry about running out of inspiration. "One, one six six?" Mrs. Gary looked surprised, obviously not expecting a string of numbers to be a name. Qi Ji chuckled and shook his head, not dwelling on it: "Just now I heard you say that your family of four is out traveling?" "Yes, I'm a school teacher, and I just happened to have a long vacation these days," said the husband Gary with a smile, "This is a rare opportunity, so I took my wife and children out to play." After saying this, his face, which was originally full of joy and relaxation, gradually became gloomy, and he sighed imperceptibly, as if he remembered something very unpleasant. Mrs. Gary noticed her husband's change of mood, and explained to Qi Ji with a wry smile: "We were originally traveling with a travel agency, and this town was the last stop of the trip. According to the original plan, we should have returned home yesterday..." "I don't know what's wrong with those guys' brains!" Gary, the husband, interrupted indignantly, "They just disbanded without giving any reason! Although they refunded two-thirds of the fees... is this just a matter of money?! It turns out that businessmen are all bastards with shit and mud in their heads!" "Hey, watch your mouth, the child is listening!" Mrs. Gary patted her husband's shoulder hastily, frowned slightly and scolded him, then looked at Qi Ji with a relaxed expression, a trace of helplessness on her face: "Originally, we should have taken the magic train back home under the arrangement of that organization, which would have taken at most three days. However, the magic train ticket cannot be purchased in the name of an individual..." Gary managed to suppress his anger and added to Qi Ji: "We live in Sunset Harbor. If I were to take a carriage back home, it would take at least half a month... Alas, I'm afraid I won't be able to get home before my vacation is over."
The tour group suddenly quit halfway through the trip? Is there such a weird thing? "That's true..." Qi Ji nodded, expressing deep sympathy, and then asked curiously: "In that case, what are you going to do next?" "We can only take it one step at a time." Mrs. Gary's helpless expression deepened: "When the sun isn't so scorching, we'll take a carriage to Loen City and try our luck in the center of the city. See if we can find another travel agency that's willing to accept a one-way trip and provide us with a voucher for the magic train..." The city of Loen is not far from this small town. It is a medium-sized city with a population of over 100,000. "Then I wish you good luck." Qi Ji expressed his blessings. "By the way, little sister, if you are an adventurer... where are you going next?" Mrs. Gary leaned forward curiously, "Can you tell me?" "Next stop..." When asked this, Qi Ji paused. The purpose of her going out was to find an opportunity to lift the seal on her memory, but to be honest, she had no idea what specific guidelines to follow. Although she had enough patience and time to waste, running around aimlessly like a headless fly was not a solution. "As for me..." She thought about it carefully and finally made a decision, "I'm going to Loen City." This town is very small. Rather than being called a "town", it is more like a "village" with a large population. It does not even have a formal name. Its main purpose is to provide agricultural products to the neighboring city of Loen. If I continue to stay in such a remote place, I will definitely not gain anything. "Well, in that case, you can come with us!" Mrs. Gary raised her lips eagerly, revealing a few teeth in a playful way, "If there are five of us, we can definitely fit in a carriage." "Is that okay?" "Of course, you gave us such a precious gift," Gary glanced at the glass apple that his wife was holding in front of her belly, "This is our natural return." "Okay then." Qi Ji agreed with a smile and was not polite. Not long after, Gary and his family finished their meal, and the sun had just shaded, and the sunlight was no longer too hot. "We can go now." Gary put down his knife and fork, looked around, and said to his wife and children. Qi Ji naturally had no objection. After a few people packed up their belongings, he followed them out of the cafe and came to the street. Not long after, he stopped a spacious carriage. There are two rows of seats in the carriage, located at the front and back of the carriage and distributed opposite each other. The seats for the five people were the same as before: Qi Ji, Daisy, and You Er together, Gary and Mrs. Gary together, with two rows of people sitting opposite each other. The city of Loen is not far from the town, and it only takes about twenty minutes by carriage. The vehicle drove in silence for about ten minutes. At this moment, Qi Ji, who had been lowering his head and closing his eyes, pretending to rest but actually thinking about the next activities, suddenly opened his eyes. At the same time, a sharp cry came from outside the carriage - it was the scream of a horse! "What's wrong?!" Mr. and Mrs. Gary turned around in panic and tried to check the situation outside through the small window at the front of the car.
When they saw this, they were stunned. A thin, black spike pierced straight through the neck of the not-so-strong horse, and bright red blood flowed down from the pierced tip. The terrified driver completely lost control of the car and was thrown out! Chapter 108 Robbers "Pfft!" Along with the dull thud of the horse falling to the ground, the carriage completely lost control, the wheels slipped instantly, the carriage began to tilt, and it was about to flip over to the ground! Before everything became irreversible, Qi Ji took action! Her hand quickly drew a semicircle in front of her body, and deep purple waves flickered, and a ripple-like distortion spread through the air as her arm swept through. The obvious fluctuations immediately overlapped with each other and gathered towards the center in a spiral trajectory. In the blink of an eye, a constantly rotating whirlwind was formed, which broke through the car curtain with a whoosh and went to the outside world. At this moment, the carriage with unbalanced center of gravity had just tilted, and the whistling whirlwind split into two parts, one large and one small. The large whirlwind swirled and pressed against the tilted side of the carriage, holding it steady; the small whirlwind rushed quickly to a nearby distance, just enough to support the driver who fell heavily, preventing him from breaking his neck. "boom!" The unbalanced carriage was pushed back to normal by the tornado. The vibration from the wheels hitting the ground made Gary's family of four stagger all over the place, but no one was injured in the end. "Ahhhh, what happened!" Mrs. Gary finally reacted at this time, and she clasped her hands in front of her chest and screamed. As a husband, Gary's first reaction was to hug her tightly, holding her tightly in his arms and using his back to protect her from any sudden danger. The brother and sister, who were lighter in body, were nearly thrown away by the violent shock, but Qi Ji was quick to use his other arm to cross their chests and press their buttocks back onto the chair, preventing them from falling to the floor. "Don't run around." Qi Ji had a sullen expression. He gave the four people some instructions, then pushed aside the curtain and got out of the car. The two whirlwinds gradually weakened and dissipated, and the frightened driver slowly fell to the ground from mid-air, standing there motionless like a chicken that had a frightened stress reaction. "Why do things always go wrong wherever I go..." Qi Jilue sighed helplessly and turned his head to look around. There was a sparse woodland between the town and the city of Loen. Several of the paths were frequently trampled by people or vehicles, forming several special roads. At this time, the carriage that the Gary family was riding in was in the middle of one of the roads, surrounded by sparsely distributed but extremely tall trees with slender trunks. The sunlight that was cut up by the dense treetops was enough to illuminate the overgrown ground, but there was still a lot of darkness that was not covered by the light. In the darkness hidden under the shade of countless trees, many malicious shadows are swaying. "Why are you hiding? Come out." Qi Ji sneered, and hundreds of air distortions emerged from her body, flying in all directions in an arc. They were translucent crescents half the size of a palm, with sharp edges, as if they were wind blades condensed from bound air! “…Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!…”
Hundreds of small and sharp wind blades quickly rushed into the forest, ending in a series of crisp crackling sounds. The next moment, the tall and slender tree suddenly shook, and the part above a certain position on the trunk slowly slid down and tilted, and fell down with a teeth-grinding friction and cracking sound. "boom!--" More than a dozen trees standing within dozens of meters of the carriage were all cut off near the roots, and the branches at the top shook and fell to the ground, raising a large cloud of dust. The originally sparse and towering trees suddenly turned into bare wooden stumps, with the upper ends cut into sharp and smooth angles, and the annual rings were clearly visible.
