Chapter 170 Blue Morpho Butterfly
There were many more people in the club room, all of them were new members. Some of them came because they were really interested in the legacy of the Twilight Age, and some were introduced by others. Although Allen didn't come to the club often, he still shared this club in his own small circle. So two elves came, one male and one female. The male was called Phyllis and the female was called Iyepel.
Two days ago in the morning, Tilan and Anneli were thinking about how to arrange the club's activities in the future, and then they heard a knock on the door outside, and then two golden-haired elves walked in. They looked handsome and beautiful, and people couldn't help but sigh that the average quality of the elves' appearance is always so high.
"Hello, my name is Phyllis, this is my friend." He pointed to the girl next to him who was about the same height. As an elf girl, this height is rare.
"Iyepel." She answered briefly, with round frameless glasses in front of her emerald eyes, and seemed to have the temperament of a scholar and researcher.
"I hope to get some interesting information about the Twilight Age from the club, such as secret books and so on. Of course, I will also share some valuable and interesting things." She pushed her glasses and got straight to the point.
Although she didn't dislike such simple people, Tilan felt that she was too direct.
"I know." She stood up and first took the people into the activity room to sit for a while, and then asked the two how they found this club.
...
"So it was Allen's introduction." Tilan nodded, and understood the circle the two were in.
"Okay, I will teach you something, but you don't have to be so utilitarian. You can just treat this as a place to relax and party." She shook her head and then briefly introduced the current activities.
"Parties are socializing, but most of the socializing is inefficient and meaningless. The so-called 'friends' are just nodding acquaintances." The two people opposite analyzed lightly, thinking that compared to socializing, they thought it was more practical to invest time in learning and research.
"Well, although I kind of agree with this idea, it would be better to relax occasionally." Tilan felt that each of the members of her club had a very 'personality'.
"How about this, we can get together once every Saturday afternoon and evening, and we won't interfere at other times, how about that?" The girl asked the two.
They looked at each other and nodded, "This is acceptable."
"Okay, let's fill out the forms first." So the club members expanded from 4 to 6.
Not long after the two left, Anneli came back with a lot of things she had just bought. Seeing the two new forms on the table, she came over curiously to ask.
"Are there new club members?"
"Yes, like Allen, they are all people who are obsessed with knowledge and research." Tilan sighed softly.
"But they are all very good people, and they don't have any bad intentions. I am still very happy about this." After saying that, she nodded again. She was not afraid of not being able to recruit people, but she didn't want the kind of people who were very scheming and would try to make trouble to enter the club.
"Next, let's go post some more notices."
Just as the girl was hesitating whether to post a few more notices to speed up the process, otherwise she would not be able to recruit ten people in time, a loud sound of footsteps came from outside the door.
"Hey, classmate Tilan, you are still recruiting new members, right?" Jin Senke, wearing a plaid short-sleeved shirt, beach pants, and sandals, leaned against the door, and several followers stood outside the door behind him.
"Why is it you?" Anneli was very suspicious.
"Miss Anneli, it's very strange to talk like this. We should have known each other before. Let me think about it. It was a party at the Huanhai Blue Sky Hotel two years ago. At that time, the eldest son of the Blue Porcelain Peacock Group got married and invited many people. You and I were there." Jin Senke touched his chin and recalled.
"I can't believe that my memory is so good." Anneli herself almost forgot about that party. At that time, she just followed her elders and was introduced to many people along the way, including Jin Senke.
"Okay, I won't chat with Miss Anneli today. I wonder if classmate Tilan is willing to accept me as a new member." He landed on a chair beside him and sat in front of Tilan, looking at the black-haired and quiet girl.
I never get tired of looking at her, Jin Senke thought to himself, curious about the origin of this girl.
Although the information showed that she was of ordinary origin, when he wanted to find out more details, he couldn't get anything new, as if someone was secretly protecting her.
You know, with his family background and the high-level firm he hired, few people can hide secrets.
This shows that this black-haired girl is either very special, or she is really favored by the academy and is fully protected, but those powers are in the dark and others can't detect them.
In the boring life, he found this beautiful black rose. As a dandy, Jin Senke felt that he had no reason to let it go. Isn't it just participating in club activities? It's always so pleasing to the eye to see beautiful girls. Since Tilan is here, Dolores, his cousin, must be here too, so it's always a good deal.
"Thank you very much for the advice from classmate Tilan last time. I wonder if you are used to the new car. My company is tinkering with a new model recently. I hope Tilan can give me some suggestions."
"I have used the new car a few times and it feels good, but I am afraid I can't give any suggestions because I have never used other luxury cars before." The girl shook her head first, then looked at the dandy young man in front of her, her eyes closed slightly and then opened again.
Although the other party was a little playful, it was not a big evil. Tilan hesitated for a few seconds and finally nodded.
"If Jin Senke wants to join, it's fine, but he must abide by the rules of the club and cannot suppress or bully others at will, otherwise he can't stay here." "
Oh-" This is the first time that Jin Senke has heard someone say to his face that you can't stay here, although it is still just a hypothesis.
The girl said it quite naturally. She didn't seem to realize that such words were a bit offensive to someone of her status, but strangely, she was not very angry? Jin Senke thought that maybe it was because the other party was a rookie, so he was more tolerant.
"What are the rules? Let me see."
Then Anneli handed him a document. There were not many rules and regulations. Most of them said that there should be love and peace within the organization, and take care of each other. The only requirement was a weekly gathering.
"That's no problem." Jin Senke turned off the projection. He felt that these were very simple. He thought it would be some harsh regulations at first.
"Well, Jin Senke, you can't bring so many outsiders to the club activity room in the future." Tilan raised her hand and pointed to the followers outside, including secretaries, bodyguards, professionals, and even people who were responsible for running errands and buying snacks and drinks for Jin Senke.
"This is a bit difficult for me. If there are no such people, what if I have an emergency? What if someone wants to harm me?" Jin Senke said he couldn't accept it.
"Then no, you can't join the club." The girl shook her head, and her long black hair rippled slightly.
"…" Now it was Jin Senke's turn to be silent.
If the other party didn't give him face, would he tear his face off and have a quarrel? Then what? He felt as childish as a child. Would he just leave like that? That would be too cheap and faceless. Compromise? Just agree to the other party's request, but that would be really unpleasant.
Seeing that Jin Senke didn't answer, Tilan didn't care. She didn't know when she didn't have the fear and yearning for these rich young men and young ladies as before.
Thinking about it carefully, it should be Dolores's credit. Many times, fear and admiration are caused by not understanding. With the popularization of the eldest lady of the "Incense Workshop" and her personal experience, the halo that was shrouded in the past disappeared, and she no longer feared and admired.
Although these heirs have great family backgrounds, they can't be transferred at will. Besides, I didn't insult or offend the other party, so why should I be afraid and give in?
"…It would be too boring for me not to bring a follower. What if I encounter an accident during the club activities? There are so few supporting facilities here. How can it be enough?" He shook his head and waved back.
"Come, scan the activity room, and then ask the company's security department to build a defense plan to renovate this place in the next few days."
After explaining some things, Jin Senke turned his head and looked at the girl.
"Only in this way can I join the club. I wonder if Tilan agrees?" The ball was kicked back again.
"Okay." So the club added new members today, so there are 7 members.
Two days later, 'Red Heart' Ruby returned to Edes Academy, and after being recommended by Dolores, she became the 8th member of the club. Now there are only two places left to complete the task.
In a corner of the activity room of the Dusk Orchestra, Tilan sat up from the sofa with sleepy eyes, rubbed her eyes, and then looked around and found that Dolores was chatting with a new girl.
Who is she?
This dress has a very stage-like atmosphere. After gradually accepting the teachings of the singing profession at the Iridium Academy, Tilan has become more sensitive and familiar with this kind of dress.
In order to increase their recognition and distinguish themselves from ordinary people, many celebrities will deliberately adopt some special hairstyles, dresses, clothes, etc. For example, the new singer "White Swan" Odney from Feiyu Star Region often wears a white dress like a dance skirt in front of the media.
Putting on shoes with simple bows, the girl stood up and approached the two people who were talking.
"Tilan is awake. Did we wake her up by talking?" Dolores looked at the approaching black-haired girl, took her hand, and gently pulled her to sit beside her.
Seeing Dolores's intimate and natural behavior, Ruby was a little surprised, and then looked at the black-haired girl carefully.
Although she and Dolores are friends, they are just acquaintances who can chat, not the kind of confidants who can talk about everything in life and have deep feelings. But today, it seems that Dolores is very special to this black-haired girl. Is it because they both have black hair, so she is more intimate? Ruby thought to herself.
She originally had black hair, but it was not completely black, a little brown. After becoming a movie star, in order to highlight her personality, she dyed her hair dark purple on the outside and pink on the inside.
"I slept well." She said so, but the black-haired girl was still a little sleepy, her eyes half closed, and she sat on the chair for a while before gradually becoming alert.
"Hello, my name is Tilan, and I'm the president of the Dusk Band. Since we just established the club, if you have any good suggestions, please tell me." The girl's eyes became clear after waking up.
"My name is Ruby, nicknamed 'Red Peach', and my current job is a film and television actor. I hope to become a big movie star in the future!" Ruby also introduced herself.
"Actually, because I often act outside, I don't have many real friends in school. I only talk to Dolores occasionally."
"Although it was Dolores who recommended it, I am actually very interested in the things of the Third Age, especially the deeds of that 'highness'. If there are her poetry collections and works, it would be great."
"Things of that 'highness'..." Tilan shook her head slightly. If there are things of that 'highness', even a pen would be a treasure of inestimable value today.
The Third Age ended the chaos and opened the glorious Fourth Age. Even today, thousands of years after the disappearance of that great morning star, the wings of the eternal cradle, the revelation of thousands of meteors, there are still people who silently believe in her.
"The past history will be a guide and inspiration for today, but it is the past after all. It cannot replace the present or the future. You must always steer the ship towards the starry sea yourself."
After civilization gradually emerged from darkness and chaos and headed towards the starry sea again, the prince left a few words and left the throne where he had sat alone for a thousand years, disappearing into the depths of the Sea of Aika, never to return.
Since then, the witches who had been born and active since the First Era have also disappeared one by one in the starry sea, and no new witches have been born. After a brief period of sadness, human civilization began to move forward at a high speed.
Countless technologies from the late Twilight Age were reactivated, and the glorious heritage created by the Transcendent was reaccepted by humans, and then further developed. Various thoughts emerged, such as mechanized transformation, the use of AI, the creation of life, the development of subspace, and so on.
The distance between the branches of a big tree will not be very far when it is young, but as it grows, the various differences will become larger and farther.
The old system is no longer applicable. The values, morals, and worldviews that were once impacted have been hit one after another. All the buildings that have been built have begun to slowly collapse. The scene in the late Fourth Era can no longer be described as human civilization. It is a precursor to the night, a sign that people no longer recognize each other as the same kind.
Pan-human civilization, pan-galactic civilization, such a name may be more appropriate.
The starting point of the war can no longer be confirmed, because on the eve of the chaos, various conflicts were breeding and rising, until they finally swept across the entire starry sea.
Recalling a little about the history of the past in her mind, Tilan remembered something. She spread out her palms, and the magic power of the withering sequence gathered, and dots of blue emerged, and finally condensed into a blue butterfly that rested on her fingertips.
This butterfly is extremely beautiful, but fragile, as if it would break into pieces with a gust of wind, but the breath of annihilation coming from it is so frightening that just a butterfly can penetrate the thick and solid armor and annihilate the existence that disappears in it.
"The inheritance of the butterfly witch Trinasha, the improvement and sublimation of that highness, is the legacy left today. It represents the cold and stern side of that 'highness'..."
The girl closed her eyes lightly, then slowly opened them, looking at the butterfly on her fingertips. The blue in her pupils was almost exactly the same as the blue of the butterfly on her fingertips, with a strange sense of charm that made people sink into it, and their consciousness was immersed in that blue and unable to extricate themselves.
