Magus Tech (Technological Wizard)

three years.

The gloomy sky lasted for three years.

At night, it's almost so dark that you can't see your fingers. It's better during the day, but only a very small amount of sunlight can be projected on the ground. Looking up, it's the same as before the storm.

At the beginning of the three years, most people still felt that there was no problem. Compared with the sky above their heads, they were more concerned about their own lives and how to make money to support themselves.

But slowly, things changed—because of the long-term lack of light, the crops in the fields began to turn yellow and wither, and the trees lost their green color. The forest turned into woods, the woods turned into grassland, and the grassland turned into wild ...

The temperature continues to drop, and everything seems to be coming early in winter.

But this winter is terrible. It may be the most terrible and longest winter that many people have experienced. Food production is almost wiped out, livestock are dying in groups, prices are skyrocketing everywhere, and social unrest is in turmoil.

A demon named "Famine" was born out of nowhere and ravaged the whole world.

Within a few months, everything in the world became unimportant, and everyone almost only thought about one question—where and how to find food and how to survive.

Under certain guidance, some people left the gathering place and headed west, while others headed east, south, or north.

Many once prosperous big cities were deserted, and even some small kingdoms and principalities disappeared without a trace on the map.

After three years have passed, the world is no longer what it used to be.

Sometimes the world changes slowly, and sometimes unimaginably fast—especially when guided.

...

Three years later.

That is, the third year of the Black Era or the New Era, as it is called by people, August 25th.

Under the gloomy sky during the day, a father and son—forty-two-year-old Philip and eight-year-old Jimmy Jr.—are heading westward in the deserted wilderness.

After walking for a while, the father and son were tired and stopped by a stone to rest.

Philip carefully took off the half-shrunken burlap bag on his shoulder, untied the tied rope, took out a dry mushroom from it, and handed it to little Jimmy to eat, and he ate the same one. After that, he tied the cloth bag tightly and put it on his shoulders again.

The father and son chewed the mushrooms, with a bitter taste in their mouths, but there was no expression on their faces, they just looked at the end of the earth with their eyes, and their eyes became a little hollow.

After a few seconds, little Jimmy's eyes became clear first, he turned to look at Philip and asked, "Father, how far are we going to go?"

How far to go... Philip couldn't help shaking his head when he heard it, and then told his son frankly that he didn't know either... About the place he was going to and all the legends about Sharin, he got it from others He had heard... In fact, he was not even sure whether Sarin existed or not.

It is said that there is endless food, that there are all kinds of magical creations that have never been seen, and that there is a beautiful life like heaven... Is this possible?

This is a new era.

Isn't the new era an era full of darkness and disaster?

Besides, he heard,

Sarin is the culprit of all this. Since it is the culprit, how can it be so beautiful?

Philip felt that his thinking was a little confused. He thought for a long time, and he didn't come back to his senses until little Jimmy pulled his sleeve with his hand. Glancing at the horizon again, he immediately showed a confident smile, and said with certainty: "Three days, at most three more days, we will be able to get to where we are going. Don't worry, Jimmy, the mushrooms in our bag, It can be eaten until then."

After a pause, Philip added: "It's really not possible, we can go back to Guangming Town, save a little, and mushrooms are enough."

"That's good." Little Jimmy laughed, "However, we'd better not go back to Bright Town, where...it's not bright at all."

"Father is the same as you." Philip smiled. "Okay, it's almost time to rest. It's time for us to set off. After passing the small mound in front, how about we rest?"

As Philip said, he pointed to a protrusion on the ground in the distance. There used to be a tree growing on it, but it was dead now, and the branches were motionless, like a sculpture.

Little Jimmy looked at it and nodded: "OK."

"Then let's go." Philip pulled Jimmy and started to walk, but he stopped suddenly after walking a few steps, and his eyes widened a little bit.

I saw, on the mound in the distance, a figure suddenly stood up from behind the dead tree. It seemed that the figure was resting on the dead tree, but now that he had had enough rest, he stood up and moved his body, then looked around and walked straight to this side.

Philip's body tensed up in an instant, and he protected little Jimmy behind him, staring at the visitor, thinking about what to do.

Go up? He dare not, who knows the identity of the other party, what if it is a robber? This is too common in the wilderness of the new era. In fact, there are quite a few in Guangming Town.

Then escape? No way, he couldn't run fast with little Jimmy, and he couldn't run far because he was so weak after being hungry for so long. In case the other party has malicious intentions, if he runs like this, he may anger the other party, and the result will be even worse.

So what to do?

Thoughts were running wild in Philip's head, but he could not think of a single one that would work.

At this time, the other party has come close.

It can be seen that the other party is wearing a very strange outfit, which roughly looks like a robe, but it is wrapped more tightly, and the wrists and ankles are tightly tied. The surface of the clothes has a metal-like luster, but it doesn't have the weight of metal, so it is much lighter.

In addition, the opponent wore a beak-like mask on his face, and behind him was a metal tube more than half a meter long.

The other party walked a few meters away and stopped voluntarily, but it didn't seem to be malicious. The mask was removed, revealing a young Lien, with brown hair and amber eyes.

The other party glanced at Philip and Jimmy Jr., and asked with a smile, "You two, are you coming from the west?"

"Yes, my lord." Philip answered cautiously, and automatically lowered his posture, because he saw that the other person's face was rosy, which was a sign of being able to eat for a long time, unlike him and his son who were sallow and emaciated—in the new era, long-term In a sense, eating enough food can already represent strength or high status.

"Then are you from Dry Valley City or Graywood City?" the other party asked again, looking very curious. This made Philip a little irritable, but it also made him a little relaxed-as long as they didn't grab mushrooms as soon as they met.

"My lord, we are from Bright Town, not too far from Graywood City. As for the Dry Valley City you mentioned, I...have never heard of it."
