Early morning of the fifteenth day.

Eden, Machining Sector, Research Room 1.

Richard sat in front of the processing table, silently calculating in his mind the various things that had been prepared during this period of time.

Improved miniature spells homing missiles, light spells, void spells, world-destroying gloves, dark king's mask......

After the calculations were completed, and everything was in order, nothing was missing, he exhaled lightly, got up and walked out of the door area, and entered the No. 3 research room next to it.

In the third research room, the immortal ancient tree species tin wood was fixed in a new transparent glass pool, and because of the last accident, he finally got the treatment of a single tree and a single room. The energy supply system has been repaired, and Ximu is now concentrating on absorbing energy from the void, transmitting it to the energy controller, and then transporting it to the rest of the research room outside the third research room to function. I don't know if I was too attentive, Richard walked in, and Ximuri ignored it.

Richard walked to the vicinity of the tin wood, stretched out his hand and knocked on the other party's trunk, the other party made the trunk twist slightly, and reluctantly revealed a human face, exhaled and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Your absorption of energy from the Void, pause. Richard said, "The time of suspension can be counted as a contract period, which can be regarded as a vacation for you." ”

"Even?" said the human face on the trunk of the tin wood, his eyes blinked, and he was suspicious, "Boy, when did you become so kind? Or is there something abnormal going on?"

"It's not something out of the ordinary, it's just that I'm going to move the props in this space you're in. Didn't you say before that the movement of the position will affect the channel for absorbing energy from the void, and the knowledge of the void that I have studied has indeed proved this, so let's pause. Richard explained.

"I see. The trunk of the tin wood twisted a little, and replied, "Well, I'll pause." ”

As he spoke, the colored arcs of electricity that pulsed on the branches of the tin wood canopy decreased at a speed visible to the naked eye, and all disappeared in just a few seconds, as if they had never existed.

"Well, it's paused. "Ximu Road.

Richard nodded, didn't say anything, and walked towards the door.

When he walked to the door, he stopped, turned his head to look at Ximu and said, "Although I don't say it, with your wisdom, I must be able to think that since I want to move the space props, then I can't keep staring at you." In other words, you will have a chance to cause trouble in this Garden of Eden for some time to come. ”

"Hey, boy, what do you mean?" Ximu frowned, and said with some annoyance, "Do you doubt me, will I make some moves next?" Haven't I already proven my sincerity, I have been concentrating on fulfilling our contract, I didn't take the opportunity to do anything last time you had an accident with those iron bumps, and it will be the same this time. ”

"I hope so. Richard replied lightly, "Of course, if you are unwilling, you can indeed try to make some small actions, but you will have to bear the consequences." ”

After speaking, Richard walked out of Research Room 3 without looking back.

Ximu looked at Richard's back, the expression on his face distorted, revealing a somewhat complicated gaze, as if he was thinking about whether what Richard said was true or false. After a long time, a sharp air flow blew from the position of the mouth, the eyes blinked, the guess was abandoned, and the whole face disappeared into the trunk.

......

Outside Study Room III.

Richard stepped out, looked ahead, and saw that there was still a moving figure, it was the old man of the lich.

I saw that the old man was standing in front of a skeleton more than two meters high, stretching out his hand and knocking constantly, and from time to time he broke off a bone and threw it on the ground. An eight-armed skeleton following him will quickly hand over another bone for the Old Lich to reinstall and replace the previous existence.

Watching the actions of the old man of the lich, Richard was a little surprised.

For as far as he knew, since he had returned from Deresan last time, the old lich had become more and more lazy, living more and more like a retired old man. On weekdays, I either sleep in an easy chair or do something else to kill time, but I don't work anyway.

But now, not only working, but also working overtime until the early hours of the morning, it is like a different person.

In the past fifteen days, he has been busy, almost paying little attention to the old man of the lich, and now he is really a little curious about what happened to the other party to make the other party change so much.

"Click......

Richard walked up and walked to the old man of the lich, and saw that the old man of the lich and the eight-armed skeleton behind him were still busy, and asked casually, "It's so late, and you haven't rested, Mr. Fu?"

"Click, pop!"

The old man turned his head to look at the tall skeleton in front of him after replacing a radius of his forearm.

An old face is full of wrinkles, like an old chrysanthemum wilting. With a frown and a look of exhaustion and worry in his eyes, he yawned and said, "You think I want to do this, it's not because of you." ”

"I—what's wrong with me?" Richard wondered. During this time, because of Rommel's affairs, he has been busy preparing, and he has not even communicated with the old lich, and he doesn't know how to affect the other party.

The old man asked, "You've been busy all this time, haven't you?"

"Yes. ”

"And it's not just busy, it's busy, to be precise. "I don't know what you're up to, but I can sense that you're in trouble. ”

"So ......"

"So, I had to keep busy. "I don't know what happened to you, but if you can't stand it, I'll have to face it." There's nothing wrong with early preparation, and that's what I've learned over the years. ”

"Well......" Richard realized: although he had not communicated with the old lich, the old man had noticed some information, which must have been the eyes of a long life.

"Anyway. The old man said, "Although I am old, I can still help a little, even if I can't solve the key problems, but the spell puppets I make can at least be used as cannon fodder, right?" After all, I still like to stand behind and support rather than stand up and fight myself. ”

"I remember you're good at frontal combat, Mr. Afu, and you fought the enemy head-on in the mine. Richard spoke.

The old lich man looked at him, glared, and said angrily, "Yes, and then I almost had my bones dismantled by that inspector Chekaf." I'm old, you can't always make me do it every time, can you?"

Be a man, please, that's the implicit meaning of the Old Man Lich.
