Chapter 288: Illusion

The blind shopkeeper did not speak.

He puffed out his cheeks and took a puff of his cigarette.

Blue-gray smoke erupted from his mouth, lingering like a cloud around the shopkeeper's face full of vicissitudes.

Xin Zi looked at the blind shopkeeper and waited quietly for him to speak.

The blind shopkeeper only "looked" at the scarlet woods in the distance, and his gaze seemed to penetrate everything.

"It's all over," after a long time, the shopkeeper with a childish voice that did not match his appearance slowly looked at his mouth, and did not take his empty gaze away from the distance, "There are some things, it is better to let them stay in the memory forever and not touch them." Otherwise, it will only fall deeper and deeper, and in the end, even the courage to live will dissipate little by little. ”

The shopkeeper's voice was very soft, but the words he said hit Xin Zi's heart hard.

yes, why did she go to the blind shopkeeper's past?

Whether he has been to Tokyo, whether he has been caught and experienced inhuman torture, knowing these answers, it is difficult to change anything.

Xin Zi sighed, and looked in the direction of the shopkeeper's "look", and the red forest was even more dazzling under the shroud of the setting sun.

She thought of the situation when she and Takemoto Li Yuan walked through this forest the day before, and then thought of all the things in the golden forest, and changed the topic: "Does the shopkeeper know that the current golden forest is actually a petty official in charge of internal affairs before?" ”

The blind shopkeeper nodded, his face was not shocked, and after a pause, he remembered again, and then asked, "How did you come from the mussel forest?" Is that 'impostor' even rejecting you? ”

Xin Zi could only answer bitterly, and said: "I asked him to help temporarily remove the illusion of the river mussel forest, and let Takemoto and Li Yuan in, the new ruler actually said that if I really have the ability, I will eliminate the illusion in the forest myself, I naturally don't have that ability......"

Looking back now, Xin Zi no longer had the righteous indignation he was now when he confronted the remnants of the demon forces in the Golden Forest, and his tone sounded a lot calmer.

When the blind shopkeeper heard this, he raised his head and laughed, raised his cigarette stick and pointed in the direction of the river clam forest, and said loudly: "Why don't you think that imposter will help you?" He doesn't have the power to help you! That illusion was a formation jointly laid out by Lady Liu, Liu Siya and several demon witches and royal bloodlines. Without the bloodline of the Demon Royal, he couldn't move that forest at all. Where is he talking to provoke you, that is clearly covering up his incompetence! ”

Xin Zi had also guessed that the person in power might have something unspeakable, but now that she was ruthlessly exposed by the blind shopkeeper, she still couldn't hide her shock.

It's no wonder that the man on the throne is suddenly furious when he hears his request, maybe he is also full of powerlessness in his heart?

The barrier that was originally used to protect the last piece of pure land of the demon witch from being set foot on by humans and from being devoured by the greed of foreign races is now without the royal family relatives who can control it, and it has become more like a cage, isolating those who were originally abandoned on this continent from humans.

Even if Lady Liu leaves, she will not allow her people to abandon the principle of drawing a line with humanity that the white cloth upholds and upholds.

"The illusion in the mussel forest was set up by my grandmother? Only the Demon Royal Bloodline can be controlled? Xin Zi said confusedly, "That is, as long as you have the blood of the demon royal family, you can control that illusion?" ”

The blind shopkeeper shook his head and said, "Not really. This is actually more like a talent, and having royal blood is just a premise. But whether or not you can master illusions, and the strength of your ability to use illusions, all vary from person to person.

"As far as I know, your grandmother was a master of illusion, and the illusion in the mussel forest is the condensation of her wisdom. Illusion has high and low levels, and it is nothing more than controlling people's minds and thoughts.

"I'm just the most ordinary demon bloodline, and I don't know how illusions are formed.

"But the advantage of being in the red line is that no matter what confusion or curiosity you have, you can bring it up, and the people in the clan will know everything and say everything, and they will never punish you for no reason because of your so-called transgression problems like the white clothes, which makes everyone cautious in what they say and do, and many things that were originally very simple and straightforward have to be hidden, which seems mysterious and secretive.

"The illusions I know can be roughly divided into three levels.

"The lowest level is nothing more than a temporary stage of confusion. Trapping enemies in a daymare, a level that is strictly confined to space and time, most of the illusionists need to confront the object they want to control, and if they leave the same space, the illusion disappears. If I'm not wrong, as long as the demon royal family is not particularly dull or deliberately hides the abilities flowing in the blood and bones in their bodies, they can reach this level. ”

Xin Zi listened carefully to the words of the blind shopkeeper and pondered.

Most of the objects that need to be controlled directly need to be faced...... Confusing the minds of the enemy......

She was in a trance reminded of her previous experience: on the fir, she had accidentally crashed into the dark room where the captain of the pirate ship was being held, and the captain's face flickered in the light of the flickering fire......

At that time, she didn't understand why the captain who was clearly trapped in the dark room in chains suddenly disappeared, and what scared her even more was the feeling that after the person's figure reappeared, she wanted to escape but couldn't move, and wanted to shout but couldn't make a sound.

At that time, Ah Brown told her that it was most likely an illusion, and she was confused and couldn't think clearly, so she simply didn't think about it anymore.

Now that I look back and go back to those clues, I was shocked into a cold sweat.

That man, he actually has the blood of the demon witch royal family?!

It turned out that as early as when she was on the sea, she had been in close contact with the demon witch royal family so closely, but it was just a glimpse, and then she passed by them.

Xin Zi's mind was spinning rapidly.

The voice of the blind shopkeeper came unhurriedly: "The middle level is the illusion that breaks through the space, and the person who applies the illusion can use any living creature around him as a medium, and spread the formation on the medium to form a barrier of a certain range, but any target targeted by the formation will be affected if he enters the barrier." As he spoke, he turned his head slightly in the direction of Xin Zi, and said: "Your grandmother, the greatest demon in the world, has taken this level to the extreme, and created the illusion in the river mussel forest, so that whenever a human person steps into that forest, his innermost desires will be infinitely magnified, and he will fall into the illusion, unable to extricate himself, and finally end up killing each other."
