Chapter 35: The Tian Music Band
The Tian Music Band came to the Imperial Capital and stayed at the Imperial Capital Hotel in a high-profile manner. After all, this is the most luxurious hotel in the city. Cage learned the news at the first time and asked Cons to put up a long silk and write a slogan on it, "Welcome the Tian Music Band to stay in this hotel." At the same time, he asked Cons to give the Tian Music Band a 10% discount on the room rate. Since these people have money, let them pay. If they want it for free, forget it. Now the Imperial Capital Hotel has enough influence to ensure that the people of the Tian Music Band only choose their hotel.
There is no so-called stage in this world. They are all temporary structures. This time, with the care of His Majesty the Emperor, it is completely different. This time they will perform in the Imperial Capital for three days. The Colosseum has been specially rebuilt to form a concert theater similar to the Roman Colosseum. Cage still admires the people in this world for being able to think of such a good idea. If it is designed by Cage, it can't be done better than them.
Cage arrived at the concert on time, "Your Highness Cage, here." Vidi, who was not far away, waved to Cage who had just got off the carriage.
"Vidi, I'm sorry, I'm a little late."
"I came early, His Majesty has already entered, let's hurry up." Vidi urged.
"Cage, I didn't expect you to come too." Stander, who was smiling, saw Vidi and Cage.
"Hello, His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince." Vidi hurriedly saluted Stander.
"I was invited by Marquis Vidi, so I came to see you. Fourth brother is busy all the time, how come you have time to come here today." Cage smiled and chatted.
"The Tian Music Band is the number one band in the continent. Even if they are busy, they have to come. Even my father came to listen to their singing, how can I not come!"
"Haha, that's right, that's right. Fourth brother, please!" Cage made a gesture of invitation, indicating that Stander should go first, but Stander couldn't do it either, so he stepped on the steps and entered the arena first. Cage and Vidi followed the trend and entered the arena with laughter all the way. Reis XII sat on a high platform in the middle. This was a place reserved for him, the queen and the concubines in the harem, and there were guards standing beside him.
With the king as the center line, it extends from front to back, and is divided into fan-shaped steps, making the hierarchy clear, with high-ranking people in the front and low-ranking people in the back. Cage and his people are naturally very close to the front, but they are still a little farther away than the four princes, after all, they are not top nobles.
Stand entered the front row with his head held high, while Cage and Vidi sat in the back. Cage was still very satisfied with his current position, which was not very far from the stage. Cage looked at this large arena that was very similar to the Roman Colosseum. It seems that there are some very powerful architects in this world, but because they are not nobles, they cannot be recorded in history, leaving only this magnificent arena.
The stage is built facing the king. The sound of the entire stage will not spread to the back. The stage is like a half-horn, allowing the sound to spread directly to the front and can spread farther. According to the distance, multiple echoes can be formed on different levels, and the singing effect will be greater, a bit like the effect of the Temple of Heaven in Beijing. However, facing so many audiences, the singer's voice must be very loud. Even if there is no noise in the entire venue, it also tests the singer's strength.
Talents arrived one after another. Basically, none of the people who came were civilians. Even some small rich people did not have this qualification. The two large magic lamps on the stage have begun to burn. It still cost a lot of money. When Cage was thinking about the setting of the stage, a high-pitched dolphin sound rose up, high and quite gentle, the frequency was constantly rising, the pitch was getting higher and higher, and later the limit of the ear could reach, and you seemed to be able to hear the sound that continued to rise in your ears.
I didn't expect that there is really dolphin sound in this world. Even though Cage had seen it in his previous life, he felt even more excited when he heard it in this life. The strength of this person who sang dolphin sound far exceeded anyone Cage had ever heard before.
All the sounds around disappeared, and now you can only hear this sound that seems to be still floating. A beautiful girl walked from behind the stage to the front of the stage, wearing the clothes that the legendary gods wear. This kind of clothes is loose and has a feeling of floating in the air. The floating ribbons of the clothes set off this image. A very beautiful girl came up. Even with Cage's eyes, who is used to seeing the stunning beauties in the royal family, he had to admit that this girl is quite beautiful, with light blue hair and delicate pointed ears. Could it be that this girl is likely to have the blood of an elf? The legendary elves and foreigners do not intermarry. What happened? From this girl, I can feel a relatively strong mental power and magic power. It seems that it is not elemental magic. Could it be mental magic? The delicate face and eyes were very charming, allowing Cage to find a trace of the characteristics of the beauty of the Chinese nation. The flashing purple eyes were very seductive, and everyone present felt that these eyes were looking at themselves.
The singing in this world was completely different from that in Cage's previous life. They completely used the natural pitch and characteristics of the voice to sing, expressing a meaning. There were no lyrics and no accompaniment. The singing in this world was still very simple, and the form was a bit like the opera he listened to in his previous life, which was completely the beauty of the voice. The first song was probably praising the gods. Even with Cage's vulgar temperament, he could hear the meaning of the song. Others also looked serious. After all, this was a hymn sung to the gods. Everyone prayed to the gods with a serious look, as if they were praying for the gods' blessings, and people's hearts completely followed the singing.
The voice gradually came down. It was a picture of people celebrating the harvest after offering sacrifices to the gods, dancing happily. The singer was really powerful to be able to present such a scene in the song. Cage looked at this girl who was only slightly older than him and admired her very much, but he also found something different from her. When this girl sang, her spiritual frequency was completely in line with the surroundings, constantly radiating and affecting the people who listened to the song, and finally the mutual spiritual frequency could be completely reached. Only Cage could see this phenomenon. After all, his spiritual power was very strong, so he could sensitively feel the changes in the surrounding magic elements and spiritual tentacles. This was a kind of innate power that Cage had possessed very early. Cage himself knew that this was definitely not the power he had trained, and his training only strengthened this power. He always suspected that he must have been gifted when he was born, otherwise why could he gain very powerful power through training? Although there were many experiences in his previous life that could be used as reference, his power increased too fast, which made him doubt.
Cutting off the influence of the same frequency of spiritual power, the sound Cage heard was not so magical. Although it was still nice, there were no scenes in front of Cage's eyes, and it did not follow the spiritual power of this girl. The singing has also fallen from the divine world to the mortal world. People sang, danced, and celebrated happily during the harvest. After the banquet, people rested, and on the second day they tried to go out hunting and living again. The singing expressed scenes of hunting, as well as scenes of women collecting wild fruits and sewing clothes. It was a description of a paradise.
No wonder such a song can attract so many people, and can make these people feel a kind of detachment from profit-seeking and intrigue, and come to a pure land of the soul, which naturally makes them yearn for it.
Cage felt a strong spiritual power coming from behind the stage, constantly affecting the people around him. Cage found that the frequency of this spiritual power barely reached the same level, which seemed to be the effect of multiple people. Cage extended his telepathic power and looked at the situation behind the stage. There were eight people who wrapped themselves up in a magic circle and were exerting their power. It seemed that they did not feel Cage's spiritual power. Cage peeked at the composition of the entire magic circle. It was a gathering and diverging magic circle that could help these people gather their spiritual power together and spread it around. The power of several people was not bad, almost reaching the level of a great magician, and almost close to the level of a magician. However, Cage had never seen a magician, so he could only judge according to the level of the high priest Harrison.
This spiritual power expanded the singer's spiritual power even more, and could directly affect everyone's emotions and senses. It was a tempting way.
Cage saw that the group of people around him were all intoxicated and completely integrated into the scene. Some people even waved their arms and were completely controlled. After discovering the secret, Cage felt that it was meaningless. There were only a few kinds of musical instruments in this world, and they were still not developed enough. They were mainly simple stringed instruments such as harps and flutes, as well as wind instruments. Of course, there were percussion instruments such as drums, but they were all based on one sound. They were all big ones, and there were no small drums, tuning forks and other instruments.
The sound gradually changed, slowly from primitive to reality, allowing people to return to reality without a trace. As Reis XII stood up and applauded, everyone in the audience stood up and applauded, thanking them for their singing. The beautiful and otherworldly girl on the stage bowed slightly to the audience to express her gratitude.
