Chapter 19: The Sea of Mysteries
When Zhibei and his party arrived at the entrance of the village, it was already completely dark. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
It was a small village, with only twenty or thirty houses scattered in a valley sandwiched between two low hills, and a well-paved road crossed from one end of the village to the other, dividing the farmer's fields on both sides, and the stream that Zhibei had been following was also led to both sides as a source of water for irrigation.
At this moment, the stars were already hanging in the deep blue sky, and a large piece of the moon was missing dutifully swaying with a cold glow. The village was bathed in this bleak world, and only two or three people lit a fire, but it was far away from their position, and only a faint reddish roof could be seen.
It's a dark world that is rare in modern times, but it's the norm in this day and age. When Zhibei first saw this kind of sight, he thought that the monsters had slaughtered the people in the village, but the torch that turned from the corner not far away silently told him that the village was just asleep.
In addition to the occasional sound of insects and the cold wind in the night, there was only a quiet silence, but slowly, the sound of flames "crackling" in the trembling air could also be heard.
The Night Watchman approached, holding a torch that made the world light and dark, and his hand resting on the knife at his waist.
He was vigilant, but vigilance was also a matter of course.
Ordinary people don't visit such a small village late at night, and in this era when the legends of demons and monsters are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, it is necessary to be vigilant for every foreign traveler, because monsters always like to put on the skin of a very deceitful person.
"Who are you? Is it a monster, a monster? The Nightwatchman's voice sounded young, he might have been inexperienced for the first time, or he might have been a coward, but his voice was loud but stumbling, and his words were headless and thoughtless.
Such a question, even if you ask the stupidest monster, he will answer "no", let alone Zhibei.
"Of course we're not monsters...... We're just travelers, I'm an onmyoji who travels the world, it's good if you call me Zhibei, ah, as you can see, behind me are all my family. ”
"I see!" The Night Watchman breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't realize that he had fallen for Yonglin's spell to guide people's hearts, but naturally let go of his suspicions, "Fortunately, it's human!" Yes! I'm sorry, I'm really rude, Onmyoji-sama, my name is Sakabe Yukitsuna, and I'm the new night watchman. ”
Sakabe Yukitsuna? Zhibei stared at the young man's angular face, frowning slightly, I don't know if it was his illusion, this name always made him feel like he had heard it somewhere.
"Onmyoji-sama, what's wrong? Is there anything wrong? Being stared at for a moment by the "oppressive" eyes, Sakabe Yukitsuna felt a little nervous, and couldn't help but ask.
"It's fine!" Zhibei waved his hand and said, "We were just passing by this place, and we wanted to visit the nearby Inari Shrine by the way, but we couldn't find the location of the shrine, and we happened to come to your village, so we plan to spend the night here and visit the shrine tomorrow morning." ”
"I see, I want to visit Inari Shrine! It's a very effective shrine, and it's rumored to be even better than the main shrine! However, it is true that the location of that shrine is difficult to find. Sakabe Yukitsuna sighed, then waved his hand sideways, and made a welcoming gesture, "So, my lord, since you want to spend the night, we are naturally very welcome, why don't you come to my house to rest, so as not to wake everyone up, how about it?" ”
"Of course, thank you very much for your enthusiasm, Mr. Yukitsuna Sakabe." Zhibei nodded and thanked him.
"Haha......" Yukitsuna Sakabe smiled a little shyly and continued, "Please, my lord, my house is here!" ”
――――――I'm the dividing line of the nightstay-----
Because I tried not to wake up Sakabe Yukitsuna's family, when Zhibei and his party carefully put things in order, it was already the dead of night.
Lying on the tatami mat, Zhibei finally found time to solve the problem of Moe's sudden evolution.
Open the interface of the system,Tune to the interface of the elf attributes,On it,The level of Meng is clearly 45,Five levels away from the 50th level of evolution,But she's no longer Lalu Lasi.,From attributes to image have undergone huge changes.,It's one more skill [Spiritual Boost] - the spiritual ultimate move of power 140.。
However, this is not a skill that Larulass can learn at all, and Zhibei swears as a World Champion that even Chirulian and even Shanaido will not be able to learn this skill unique to Daiochis, [Mental Boost].
Hell - it's completely unscientific!
First, Meng broke the limit to evolve, and then learned the inexplicable superpower move. In other words, in fact, Moe is the protagonist of this book, right?
Spit and complain, but Zhibei still has to think about what happened today. First of all, according to his inference a long time ago, in this world, the elves have lost their due abilities because the rules of this world are different from their original world rules, and the role of the system is to transform the power of this world little by little, and then infuse it into the elves' bodies......
Wait a minute!
Zhibei suddenly realized something-
Maybe the opposite is true? Maybe the system is using a power that Zhibei doesn't know to transform the elves' bodies, so that they can adapt to this world?
If you add to that the setting that the soul can speed up this transformation process, then everything will be logical.
The thought made him tremble with excitement, and he seemed to get a glimpse of the true face of the system. However, all this is just Zhibei's conjecture, no matter how gorgeous and cool the setting is, it may not be favored by the real world.
In order to verify these settings, Zhibei plans to call out the rested Meng out to ask.
"Moe ...... By the way, what does evolution feel like? ”
"Huh?" Chirulian, who had just come out of the elf's computer, was looking curiously, apparently, her attention was not on Zhibei's question, "Does evolution still feel anything?" Isn't it just the natural one...... Well, if I had to say it, it would be like a feeling of trying to go up! ”
"Huh? I'm not asking how the evolutionary process feels...... I mean, why did you evolve all of a sudden? It's not at the level, is it? ”
"Is there a reason for evolution? At that time, I just wanted to become stronger, so I evolved! ”
"Is it so casual?"
"Of course, in my original world, there is no such thing as a hierarchy at all, everyone evolves when they are happy!" As she spoke, Meng suddenly paused, "Wait, I remembered, Zhibei, when I evolved, the world did become different-"
"How?"
"If the previous world was like a dry desert, full of unusable energy, then when I evolved, I was like soaking in the sea of mysterious power, like a fish in water, and evolution was completed so naturally!"
"Mystic Power ......"
Zhibei thought for a moment, and suddenly there was a flash in his mind, and he roared excitedly, "Mysterious Slate!" ”
It's this! It is this slab that creates the mysterious sea, that is, the mysterious slab is nearby.
If this conjecture is true, then Zhibei's previous setting will have to be overturned again.
The secrets of the system are still hidden in the depths of the fog.
