Chapter 124 This is the beginning and this is the end

Dark clouds enveloped the third flame city. It was clearly afternoon, but the sky was dim as if it was already evening. In the dark clouds, there were constant thunder sounds. Green and white lightning poked out from time to time from time to time, illuminating the sky above the city, and returning to darkness in an instant. Everyone in the city's residents could feel that the rain accumulated in the clouds, but there was no drop falling, which made people feel that people were irritated but full of expectations.

Penis slowly paced the almost empty street with his hands on his back, looking very leisurely, and seemed to be in a hurry at all. It was half an hour ago that the group left the city hall. The girls and Moore now went to other places to destroy the magic circles that were arranged and could only bring death. Before leaving, Catherine seemed to have had a premonition and looked at Penis with concern, but in the end she didn't persuade him. She just hugged his body gently and whispered in his ear: "Come back safely, we are all waiting for you, don't let us down."

After seeing off the girls, Panis began to wander around the city. At this time, the only difference between him and before was that he changed into a set of clothes. The looser black windbreaker cover he usually liked to wear was replaced. Now he was only wearing a tight swordsman suit, tightened cuffs and trousers tightly wrapped around his wrists and ankles, which would not cause any inconvenience to movement. His body, the various weapons that were usually wrapped in the windbreaker and handed them over to Catherine with his backpack. Therefore, he now only had a one-handed sword on his back, just in the most convenient position to draw.

Panis walked very easily. Every few steps he took, he would look at the surrounding scenery curiously, just like he had never been to this city. He seemed to be very interested in every building. When encountering interesting things, he would stop to enjoy it for a while. Occasionally, there were residents looking out from the windows of the room, looking at the weird people who were still wandering on the streets when the heavy rain might come at any time. However, the more people there were in the city, the higher the chance of a weird person appearing. In a large city with a population of hundreds of thousands, you could always see a few tourists who behaved strangely. Therefore, Panis was not watched by the residents.

However, he didn't care about these things at all. Instead, he was like a real tourist, wandering around the streets without any intention of rushing to meet Feila. Once, he had already reached a few hundred meters away from the city hall, and did not enter again, but turned into an alley and continued to wander leisurely. As he walked between the cities, Panis's expression gradually changed. When he just left the city hall, his expression always had an indescribable weirdness, but the more he wandered around, the more he felt, the more relaxed his expression. Until he finally returned to his usual appearance, with a lazy smile in peace.

It was not until then that Panis suddenly turned around, narrowed his eyes and looked at the high spire of the city hall from afar, chuckled, and took steps towards the city hall. He took a step forward and suddenly disappeared from the spot. When he appeared again, he had already crossed several walls that became obstacles and appeared on another street dozens of meters away. His speed was still slow. However, because he was moving straight forward, any obstacle was used to use the inherent spiritual realm to cross, so the distance from the city hall was quickly closer, less than ten minutes. He was already standing in the empty hall of the city hall.

The city hall was still empty, and even the guards who lived on duty in the city hall all year round did not know where they were sent by Ferek. The huge hall was still immersed in a dead silence, and only the occasional thunder sounded outside would roar into this quiet and terrifying space.

Panis stood in the hall for a few minutes with his hands behind his back. He nodded thoughtfully until he heard the sound of an hour's bell from afar. Following the path leading by Ferek, he walked into the teleportation room that connects the floating island and the ground hub. There was obviously no change in the teleportation room. The teleportation array was still lying there, flashing with magic light. He lowered his head and looked at the array, as if he had finally decided something, and walked to the center of the array.

The light of teleportation magic flashed, and when Panis's vision recovered, it had already appeared on the floating island. It can be seen that the entire floating island was wrapped in a dark cloud. Lightning was shuttled through the clouds, but was blocked by the shields on the outer layer of the island and could not affect the inside. Standing here, due to the obstruction of dark clouds, there was no sky or ground, as if it had entered another world. However, compared with the city below, there were a lot more people on the floating island. The mages and scholars seemed to have never happened before, running around in various workshops and affiliated laboratories as usual, continuing their own lives. Maybe they didn't know at all, just on the ground hundreds of meters below them, there was a terrible magic circle waiting to devour a large number of lives, which might include their family and friends.

"I don't think they will care if they know." Panis shrugged and said to himself, walking leisurely to the bottom of the mage tower, pushing open the door and walking in. When I came last time, although the inside of the mage tower was quiet, I could occasionally see the mages coming and going, but this time I didn't encounter it. However, this strange phenomenon did not surprise Panis at all. He just smiled casually, and followed the route of the last time, and went straight to the top of the mage tower through teleportation.

"May I ask, is it Master Kyle?" As soon as he walked out of the last teleportation array, a timid girl's voice came into Panis's ears. When he turned his head, he saw one of the maids who had been taking care of himself beside Feila, blinking his big eyes and looking at him timidly.

"It's me." Panis nodded in confusion and asked, "Why are you still waiting here?"

"Master Feila asked me to inform you that he was waiting for you in the old place." The maid lowered her head and whispered: "Other Master, he, he said, let you do his good and teleport me down. I don't know what happened to the master. I asked several sisters to go home on holiday early this morning. I have been waiting for you here for a whole morning."

"Haha, nothing, it's just that he has some problems to deal with, don't worry." Panis chuckled and comforted: "As for you, will you send you back to the ground?"

"No, I have no relatives on the ground, and my current residence is on the island." The maid seemed to feel relieved when she heard Panis's comfort, and explained with a smile: "So can you please send me to the teleportation array at the bottom of the tower?"

"As you wish, I'm glad to serve you." Pannis seemed to have completely returned to his habit of being Kyle, and he carefully stroked his chest and bowed, and reached out to the magic circle he had just come up like a gentleman: "Please, beautiful lady, I will personally escort you to the bottom."

"Thank you, Master Kyle." The maid's timidity finally disappeared. She quickly walked to the center of the magic circle, but then tilted her head and said to herself: "Strange, why do you always feel that you have heard of your name? "Master, where did you hear it?"

"Ha, there are always some people whose names will be very similar." Panis said with a faint smile: "But they live too much and the other live now, not the same person, just similar."

"I don't understand very much." The maid should have been teleported countless times, so there was no panic during the teleportation process, and there was no change in any way because it suddenly appeared in another position. Instead, he blinked blankly and continued the conversation just now: "But I always feel that it is very similar to some of the words said by the master. The master will always say some strange words to himself recently, which is also the past, present, human hearts, but we maids do not understand at all. Well, Master Kyle, you are indeed a good friend of the master, and even the words you say are as profound."

"Hahahaha, right, we are indeed good friends." Panis's eyes slowly narrowed and he said with a smile: "Since many, many years ago, we have been very good friends. We know each other very well, so we even speak so similarly. Well, beautiful lady, we are here, but I have an appointment with Feila, so I won't send you to the doorstep."

"Thank you, Master Kyle." The maid thanked her gratefully, suddenly remembered something and said, "Ah, by the way, the master asked me to give you... No, I almost forgot the master's instructions. It's nothing, thank you for sending me down."

"It's my honor to serve the lady." Panis nodded thoughtfully, watching the maid walk out of the gate of the magic tower. Before leaving, he turned around and closed the gate again.

"Is it an old place?" Panis said to himself with a smile on his lips: "It really feels like going back in time."

With a smile, Panis teleported back to the top of the tower. This time no one was waiting next to the magic circle again, but he still stood in the center of the magic circle for a few seconds, walking familiarly along the corridor on the top floor, and arrived outside the door of Feila's private laboratory in a few minutes.

"This is the place we first met. Every time we come to see you, we almost always see you here." Panis pressed his hand on the gate and said softly: "Starting from here and ending from here is like a time retracement. I am really worthy of you who have been immersed in the magic of time for half of your life. Unfortunately, although the location has not changed, you and me who stand at both ends of time are no longer the same you and me as before. Are you right, my old friend?"

As he said that, Panis gently pushed open the laboratory door. As soon as the door opened, he saw Feila in black robe, with her back facing him, leaning over and standing in front of his laboratory bench busy.
