The Devil Priest and the Brave Beautiful Girl

After talking with Elder Miandra, Ulysses walked out of the church. At this time, the winter town had returned to calm, and the scene that everyone surrounded him in the morning did not reappear. It seemed that when the elder was talking with him, they also realized that something was wrong with them, and they asked almost everything they could ask. So even though Ulysses was walking on the street now, the others just smiled at him and didn't ask anything more.

Thank the Supreme God! Ulysses breathed a sigh of relief when the people in the town stopped asking themselves. After relaxing, he finally had the opportunity to take a closer look at this small town guarded by fantasy barriers.

In fact, he can see the appearance of this small town very clearly on the edge of the forest, but when he really walks in this town, he can still feel some differences. Specifically, it is the feeling of nostalgia. Perhaps it was a psychological effect. After learning from Elder Miandra that this winter town has thousands of years of history, he would feel that he was looking at history when he looked at every building here.

The most common type in this winter town is the slightly old wooden two-story buildings with black roofs. Outside these buildings, some artificially cultivated green vines spiraled up the corners, covering most of the walls. The beautiful green stems make these buildings lively, but the slightly grayish colors on the walls can still make people feel the long history.

The ground is a circular stone road, spotless, as if no one has stepped on it. This reminded Ulysses of Elder Miandra's statement that there is almost no dust in this town, and this clean ground should be the best proof. On both sides of the road, there are some magic lights with spires on stone pillars, which are simple and beautiful in shape, but they are not illuminated now. I think they are used at night.

It seems that the sage named Elmeya grew up in a very old town, and he felt the quaint and peaceful atmosphere around him. Ulysses felt that he had traveled through time and space, and came to the same era as the existence of the sage Elmea thousands of years ago. I don't know what Elmea, who lives alone in this one-person town, feels like walking on this street?

There are not many shops in the town. Although there are quite a few shops on both sides of the street, there are no people inside. After all, there were only about 300 troops who escaped from the war of the dead into this guarded place, and there were probably about two to three thousand people who originally lived in this small town. It is not surprising that these shops are empty.

However, there still seem to be people in several industries related to people's lives. For example, the bakery shop who is now greeting Ulysses with Fatty Fatt.

"Ah, Ulysses. Come and **** newly made bread. This is my proud work-extra-large fat bread. If you give this to Mihalu, she will be very happy. "The enthusiastic Fat didn't give Ulysses a chance to speak, so he stuffed a big, round and fat bread into his hand, patted his shoulder vigorously, and then asked in a low voice:

"As a reward, can you tell me where you and Miharu have been? When will you overthrow her! I hope to hug you and her baby! Miharu looks so cute when he was a child, think of it I feel happy that there are no children in this town. It's really a shame..."

"Wait, wait, Mr. Fatt, did you make a mistake?" Seeing the fatter Fatt talking more and more ridiculously, Ulysses interrupted him quickly and said seriously:

"I don’t have that kind of relationship with Mihalu. This morning, too, you suddenly said that kind of misunderstanding, which caused me to be questioned for a long time. I don’t know what to say. Anyway, Now Mihalu and I are just very good friends. Please don't get crooked!"

"Oh oh oh oh, I am already a very good friend. The progress is faster than I thought. You have only been here for a few days. You did a beautiful job, much better than when I was young. Really. One hand! It would be nice if I had you in my youth..." Hearing Ulysses' words, Fat Fatt said quietly.

"Mr. Fatt, say it again, Mihalu and I are really just friends!" Ulysses said angrily. This is really not something to joke about.

"Hahaha, I know, friends, friends! Everything starts with friends. When I was young, why didn’t I have a beautiful girl friend who liked me? What a sad life! But anyway, hundreds of years have passed. It’s okay, you have to come on! It’s best to have a bunch of cute kids with Miharu, I’m waiting!" Fat Fatty completely ignored Ulysses’ words and patted his shoulder heavily, revealing Weird smile.

"You really misunderstood! Mr. Fatt!" Ulysses looked at the grinning fat Fatt helplessly. Suddenly I remembered the strange smile that Elder Miandra showed when he told him about Miharu. By comparison, that smile is really similar to Fat's smile now!

Does the elder have this idea too! As soon as he thought of this, he immediately rejected it. In his opinion, the respected and solemn Elder Miandra would never do such a dumbfounding thing.

"I'm shy, I'm shy! It's really nice to be young! Unlike this town, where there are hundreds of people, I can remember all the wrinkles on everyone's face! The future is yours! Come on! "Fat Fatt said indifferently with an expression that I knew what was going on.

"Manager Fatt!" Ulysses really had nothing to say for this kind of person who didn't listen to what others said at all.

"Okay, let’s not talk about it, but you don’t have to call me the store manager or something. People here usually call me Fat Fat Fatt, and some people call me Fat Fat Fat Fatt. You can call it whatever you want, but the manager does whatever. Forget it, after all, you are also a member of this winter town!" Seeing Ulysses' signs of anger, Fatt supported his chubby belly and swaggered back to the store.

Fat Fatty? It seemed that the people in this town couldn't help him. Looking at the back of Fatt's huge body, Ulysses sighed. As for the reason for the nickname given to him by the people in town, he can probably guess...

After leaving Fatt's bakery, Ulysses threw the big fat bread into the dark dimension space and continued to tour this peaceful town.

Because of the disproportion of the people who live in and the area of ​​the town, there are few people on the street. During the time Ulysses was walking on the street, he saw only four people, and they just greeted him with a smile and left. They look like they are going to work, but what kind of work will there be in this winter town?

Suspicious Ulysses looked at both sides of the street. He didn't want to go to Fatt's bakery anymore. [I'm afraid he will talk nonsense again. 】The only people he is familiar with are...

After looking around for a while, Ulysses found the place he wanted to go. It was a small shop surrounded by flowers. Compared with other buildings, this small shop is much more vibrant. Climbing on the wall, there are small yellow flowers blooming on the Vineman, and in front of the shop are dozens of pots of beautiful flowers exuding a strong fragrance of flowers. He didn't know the names of these flowers, but even just looking at them, he could feel the vigorous vitality and natural beauty.

This should be the flower shop of the fairy Fez! After looking around and confirming that there were no other flower shops, Ulysses walked into this small shop surrounded by plants.

The situation in the shop is more exaggerated than Ulysses thought. If he didn't know that he was walking into the shop on the street, he would definitely think he had entered the forest.

Light yellow, lavender, bright red, emerald green, all kinds of beautiful flowers occupy the entire store space, the original layout of the store is completely invisible. The ground, ceiling, and walls are all occupied by various plants. There is no furniture or anything at all. If the flower pots outside look like a flower shop, they are already a pure plant world. I think this arrangement is suitable, I'm afraid it is only the fairies who are closest to nature.

"Excuse me, is anyone there?" Looking at the lovely flowers on the floor, Ulysses didn't even dare to step on it, so he could only whisper at the entrance of the flower shop.

"Well, it's really rare, who is it? No one should be here at this time?" The voice of the goblin Feth came from behind the dense greenery.

Immediately afterwards, something unthinkable happened. All kinds of flowers and plants spun off a road as if consciously. At the end of the road, the green-haired goblin Fez was walking over without hesitation. While walking, he touched the flowers next to him casually, and looked at his intoxicated expression, as if he was touching his own child.

"Mr. Faith, hello!" Ulysses greeted Faith the goblin, and then looked at the plants around him curiously. Even if he is completely unaware of the natural magic of fairies, he can clearly feel that the plants around him are emitting a message of joy. Just look at the slightly trembling flowers to know this. It was like seeing her father's little girl.

"It turned out to be Ulysses. Welcome. What can you do when you come to my flower shop? If you want to grow flowers, I can recommend several varieties that are easy to survive. For example, this kind of sunflower is good. It shines in the sun and just waters it. It is a flower suitable for beginners to raise." Seeing Ulysses coming in, Fiss smiled happily, and pointed to the kind next to the window casually. Little red flowers illuminated by the sun.

"No, I didn't come to spend it. Actually, I wanted to ask what people in this town usually do. Why can't you see a few people on the street?" Ulysses was embarrassed. Scratching his head, asked in confusion.

"That's nothing. Ulysses, Elder Miandra should have told you that all the people living here belong to the Royal Legion of Anka Nation." Hearing Ulysses' question, Fez was stunned. Stayed, and soon began to explain to him.

"Well, I see, you guys have fought with the Undead Army!" Ulysses nodded.

"Undead Legion! Those immortal monsters still find it difficult to think of it now. We actually escaped from their attack. Thanks to our commander, Captain Charlie. Without him, probably we would have become too A member of the Undead Legion, right?" Recalling that fiasco, Fez smiled bitterly, and the corners of his mouth twitched a few times.

"It is said that the final result of the War of the Undead was the fiasco of all races, but the Undead Legion disappeared, right? This is what you and Elder Miandra said!" After recalling the end, Fez sighed and asked you in turn. Risis.

"Yes!" Not long after Ulysses woke up, Elder Miandra asked him about this matter, and he answered truthfully. Until now, he still remembered the shocked expression on the elder's face when he heard this answer.

"It turns out to be true. Then I will tell you directly. The reason why you can't see a few people in this winter town is because they have all gone to practice outside! The purpose is to break through the fantasy barrier. Although not here. I know why the effect of cultivation is so bad, but there is still a little effect! After knowing that the Undead War is over, they are all anxious to leave!" After receiving the answer, Fez didn't hesitate anymore and directly spoke out of the town. The reason why other people can't be seen inside.

"So that's it!" In fact, Ulysses was vaguely aware of it, but he didn't dare to be completely sure until now. But thinking about it carefully, this is also a normal thing. If there is no undead army outside, it is really a matter of course for people living here to want to leave.

"Thank you. If you don't come in from the outside, people here think that the outside world is over. After all, the power of the Necromancer Legion is really terrifying. Even if all the races in the mainland unite, they are not opponents. So they have long since died of the heart to go to the outside world, but now everything is different. Now that the war of the dead is over, they naturally want to go back to the outside world." At this point, Fez seemed to have thought of something and looked at it. Looking at Ulysses, he smiled cheerfully.

Ulysses, who noticed the word "they" in Fiss's words, asked in a puzzled manner: "They?? Don't you want to go out, Mr. Fiss?"

Feith’s answer was completely unexpected by Ulysses: “Well, here, the life of all plants is prolonged. Sunlight can come in, but it won’t rain or snow. The temperature has always been maintained. At the most suitable degree for plant growth, for me as a fairy, nothing is more suitable for me than here. I think it’s not just me, as long as the fairy will like it. So it doesn’t matter if you don’t go out, but in If you ask me for help when attacking the fantasy barrier, I will still go."

Ulysses really couldn’t understand Fez’s decision. After hesitating for a while, he asked carefully: "Don’t you have any relatives out there, Mr. Fez?" [Based on the life span of the fairy, three hundred years It's nothing, ordinary fairies have a life span of three to four hundred years. The lifespan of a fairy who reaches level 7 can reach ten times that of an average human, which is one thousand years old. 】

"Family... is gone, my only brother has been killed by the death knight in that war..." Fez didn't say any more, but was silent for a while.

"Sorry, I said the wrong thing." Feeling the suffocating silence in the air, Ulysses quickly apologized to him.

"It doesn't matter, it's already three hundred years ago. No matter how sad it is, I have almost forgotten it. Is there any problem?" Fez waved his hand and signaled Ulysses not to care.

"No! I'm sorry to bother you!" Although Fiss said it doesn't matter, Ulysses still feels sorry.

"You don’t need to care. You can come to me if you have time in the future. Just ask if you have any questions. By the way, don’t you really take the potted flowers? These flowers are all my proud work. It doesn’t matter if you don’t know how to raise them. I can teach you." Fez said with a smile.

"Well, I haven't decided on a good place to live yet. I will come after the elder arranges for me. I'll go now!" Ulysses, who didn't plan to grow flowers right away, hesitated, or temporarily rejected Fez. Proposal.

"Goodbye, you can come anytime if you want to spend it. Anyway, it takes a long time!" Fiss didn't mean to force Ulysses, anyway, in his opinion, Ulysses has more time in this town. Yes. It would take hundreds of years to break through that fantasy barrier.

"goodbye!"

After leaving the flower shop in Fez, Ulysses walked to the center of Wintertown, under the statue of the girl in the square.

Just as he raised his head and stared at the huge statue of a young girl in front of him, his back suddenly became hot, two warm, soft things stuck tightly to it, and a fresh scent of young girl came from behind him. .

"This feeling, is it..." It's not the first time that Ulysses's face, who felt that wonderful touch, suddenly became hot, and his heartbeat instantly doubled.

Then his eyes went dark, and the face of the virtual moon was gently covered by two small hands, and then a naughty girl's voice sounded: "Guess who I am!"
