With a loud shout, Ferdinand looked at Parvez with red eyes.
This old guy is still as direct as before.
"Why are you telling me all this... I don't think I've told you why I'm here yet?"
Ferdinand asked in a deep voice, suppressing his inner irritability.
He still knew how to manage his emotions in a basic way, and the emotions that had been stirred up by Parvis gradually calmed down.
"Because this is also in my heart, I am also...jealous of her."
Stroking the teacup in his hand, Parvis tried his best to absorb calories from it.
But the late autumn weather made the black bean tea in his hand gradually cool down, and the little heat was no longer enough to make him feel comfortable.
Like Ferdinand, he was jealous of Christine, jealous of her youth and her time.
"Ferdinand, look up at the sky."
"When I was a child, every time I looked up like this, I couldn't see the starry sky. All I could see were the silhouettes of the towers."
"The sorcerous light from the tower's summit shines eternally in the sky."
"The adults told me that it was the eye of the Witch King, and that his will has always enveloped the land of Leithania."
"At that time, I was thinking, if the Witch King is the only miracle chosen by fate, then what is the meaning of the existence of the rest of us?"
"Haven't you always been spitting at those ignorant warlocks wasting their time summoning the Witch King's spirit?"
"Yes, I oppose them. My people and colleagues have spent their entire lives in vain, just begging for that meteor-like miracle to once again descend upon the land of Leithania."
“But during my long research, I gradually understood that a miracle is a miracle precisely because it is a coincidence that cannot be controlled or reproduced.”
"Only such coincidences can break the cage of fate that hangs over each of our heads."
"You consider Kristen's career that miracle?"
The gradually calming heart gave Ferdinand more time to think. He picked up the tea in front of him and took a sip.
“She has the potential to work miracles.”
Listening to Parvez's words, Ferdinand was still suppressed by Christen's "afterglow", which made him sigh helplessly.
"You have your own dream, and I have mine. If she is the destined miracle, then what are we? Waste on the production line?"
"No, Ferdinand, why give up on yourself?"
Parvez smiled calmly: "Perhaps the fate of mankind will indeed be tied to an extraordinary individual. She will break free from all shackles, become the eyes of everyone, and see scenery that we can hardly imagine."
"But that doesn't mean our lives are doomed to be wasted."
"Because miracles are born on the road of evolution, and you, me, and even that homeless person outside, our dreams constitute this journey itself."
Parvez's "patient persuasion" successfully convinced Ferdinand, and at this time, the hostility in his heart had disappeared.
Just like before...
But he also remembered what Parvez had just said.
"I have almost nothing now, so there's not much left for you to think about."
"I'm not in a hurry. Wait until you finish your drink and then we can talk about work."
Parvez smiled, raised the glass in his hand and saluted Ferdinand.
"I also want to chat more with old friends. After all, we started this journey together."
.........
Walking out of the gate of the Rainbow Life Ball, Ferdinand remained silent. He used a scarf to cover half of his face, hiding the face that was teasing him.
But, someone still recognized him.
"Good sir, we meet again!"
The simple smile and thin clothes reminded Ferdinand of his identity.
The passerby I met this morning...
Ferdinand pulled his scarf down a little, revealing his mouth.
He looked at the loudspeakers hanging from his waist, and the cardboard under his armpit that seemed to be almost unbearable.
Both items are very new, and you can tell at a glance that they are brand new goods, not some rotten cardboard picked up from the corner.
This made Ferdinand understand where the money he gave to the other party went.
"You didn't use the money I gave you to exchange for food and shelter, but... you exchanged it for these things?"
The money he gave the passerby was enough for him to stay comfortably for a day or two, and at least to buy him some new clothes to keep warm.
But the other party exchanged that money for these...useless things?
"Look at what you said. How can temporary enjoyment be more important than these serious matters?"
The passerby smiled and placed a sign with the words "Rhine Life" in front of Ferdinand, saying, "If we don't fight for ourselves, who will fight for us?"
"It's never as good as doing it ourselves if we rely on others, right?"
The smiles of passersby were not pretty, but they made Ferdinand smile from the bottom of his heart, as if he was infected.
"Yes, placing our hopes on outsiders will never be as good as on ourselves."
Ferdinand smiled, took the marker from the other person's chest, and then waved to the passers-by.
"Come on, give me the sign."
"Ah? Good!"
The passerby didn't understand what was going on, but still handed Ferdinand the cardboard with the four words "Rhine Life" written on it.
"Rhine Life—before you accuse someone, you must first spell its name correctly."
Filling the gaps and correcting the mistakes for each other, Ferdinand waved his hand and a brand new cardboard appeared in front of the two of them.
"Haha, yes, sir, that's much better! Thank you so much!"
The passerby took the cardboard from Ferdinand's hand with a smile on his face, and looked at the handsome handwriting on it, and couldn't help but smile.
"Let's go and find a place."
After putting the pen cap back on, Ferdinand pinned the marker to his chest, patted a passerby on the shoulder, grinned and said, "Tell me about it..."
"What do you see in your dreams, what do you want to achieve in your career, what exactly is it like..."
"future."
Volume 9: Chapter 84: I will be with you
As night falls, the employees who have been busy all day take off their work clothes and change into casual clothes.
They dragged their tired bodies out of the door.
The fresh air outside, which was different from the fresh air indoors, lifted their spirits, as if their physical strength had been replenished. They wrapped their clothes tightly and quickened their pace on the way back.
Things have not been peaceful in Tremont recently, with rumors spreading everywhere, and ordinary people like them have also heard bits and pieces of it.
They are not interested in the struggle for power among the upper class. They just want to get their own salary and live their own life.
As the last person left, the door to Rhine's life closed tightly.
This behemoth entrenched in Tremont finally fell into a deep sleep.
Standing on the building opposite Rhine Life, Talina breathed a sigh of relief when she saw those guys holding signs finally leave.
"Protest marches... who came up with this? A waste of time."
Complaining about those people's "overestimation of their own abilities", Talina bent her legs and jumped off the roof.
Like a light bird, silent and motionless.
As a leader in the scientific research community today, Rhine Life Sciences naturally cannot be defeated by the protests of just a few people. If there is no action at the national level, it will continue to maintain its current status.
but...
"remarkably brave."
Quickly walking around the surrounding surveillance cameras, Talina arrived at the sewer entrance closest to Rhine Life.
She stood there, tapping the ground with her toes, making a soft snapping sound.
It's like sending some signal.
As the sound was made, a stream of clear water emerged from the hole in the manhole cover and began to climb up along Talina's legs.
The feeling was very strange, as if someone was touching her thighs, but Talina looked indifferent.
Because she's used to it.
Finally, the water wrapped her whole body, and then carried Talina into the manhole cover.
It's like it never appeared.
Driven by the water flow through the pipe, Talina looked at the novel scene in front of her and couldn't help but marvel at the magic of the elves' magic.
No matter how many times I see it, this special technique that is different from traditional magic is still very attractive...
"We're here~"
Suddenly, a soft laugh sounded in her ears, and Talina's eyes suddenly changed and her vision became wider.
Her body fell to the ground, and the water flowed down from her body, all returning to her owner.
The surroundings are full of greenery, making people feel as if they are in a primeval jungle, but the steel in the distance reminds them that this is a city.
This is just a small piece of green shade in the steel jungle, barely maintaining life.
"Where are the people?"
With her hand resting on the blade at her waist, Talina looked at the elf watering the flowers in the distance.
She was oblivious to the people around her and didn't care about Talina's "threat" at all, and was wholeheartedly communicating with the green plants in front of her.
The branches and leaves of the flowers swayed gently, alerting her to the movements of the people behind her.
"Okay~ I know, drink more~"
His slender fingertips gently touched the swaying branches and leaves, and Muirseth put down the cartoon watering can in his hand.
after all...
I don’t know when I’ll be able to drink it next time.
"I thought you'd be more discreet, like sneak in or something."
With his hands behind his back, Muirseth walked briskly to Talina's side.
She just made an appointment with Talina to meet here, but they didn't discuss the method of entry.
In other words, Talina trusted her, so she followed her guidance.
This feeling of being trusted made Muirseth feel as sweet as eating candy, but she only tasted it briefly.
Then, I gave up the idea of continuing to indulge myself.
"She was resting inside and hasn't woken up yet."
Pointing to a hidden door in the distance, Muirseth said with a smile.
"That child seems to have overexerted herself, but don't worry, I've checked her out and she's not injured."
"Thank you."
Talina breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Rosemary was alright.
Blake's determination was much stronger than they thought, and the people he sent were more powerful than they thought.
Even she had difficulty escaping, let alone Rosemary.
If there was no one guiding her, she would only do what she was told in advance. She was told to cover the rear, and she actually blocked Blake's army there for nearly half an hour.
If I hadn't asked Muir Seth to rescue him, things would have been much more troublesome.
"She's really tired."
"Yes, her spells rely on consciousness. Her mind is much more tired than her body."
"Let's talk somewhere else."
