Chapter 171: It's hopeless, wait for death

The boy didn't have a city, and he happened to be the age when he felt that Lao Tzu was the first in the world, and he couldn't wait to go around to show off his extraordinaryness.

But there was only so much information he could provide, Xia Ran frowned and talked for a while, and found that he couldn't ask anything more, so he just gave up and turned around and left, he intuitively felt that something was wrong.

The boy who was thrown away was furious about this, but he ignored it completely, so he could only raise his fist and shout behind him.

The words are very ugly, and if you have to translate it, it probably means "Thirty years in Hexi, thirty years in Hedong, don't bully young people into poverty" and something like that...... However, Xia Ran didn't have time to entangle with the mentally retarded bear child now, and he didn't even want to look for the palace manager, so he left Longxiao Palace directly.

I can't stay in this ghost place, I'm just a little budding newcomer, with small arms and legs, it's really not worth wasting the brain capacity of the demon god.

He began to wonder if he had any hidden talent for the spirit system, but he didn't have time to study the dragon roar recently, otherwise, maybe he would find that he had a high talent in the way of roaring.

Because the essence of the dragon's roar is the language of the dragon, that kind of creature is so terrifying that just speaking their language can cause powerful magical effects such as frost, fire, thunder, and other unexplained phenomena.

The two-headed dragon fights each other, which is a "sword of words" in the real sense, which is essentially similar to scolding the street, but it is more deadly.

However, the ability to use speech as a weapon is, in the final analysis, also a linguistic rule, and the dragon's roar can also be incorporated into the broad concept of "speech spirit".

Back at his residence, Xia Ran didn't panic too much - he first used up all those spell books one after another, all of them added up to no more than two hours, and he finished the job shortly after nightfall.

This proves that he has not made any progress in the past half a month, but that kind of progress is not superficial, such as assigning points and improving attributes, which is as simple and straightforward as easy to understand...... Rather, it is embodied in a more built-in, more foundational wisdom of perfection.

At least it's no longer the kind of apprentice who doesn't know what it is, who knows how to use magic but doesn't understand the laws and principles behind it, and the obscure knowledge.

He has now consolidated a lot of basic magic knowledge, and advanced theories about summoning and illusion are also being studied, even if it is impossible to understand them all in a short period of time, it is more just rote memorization and understanding based on his own experience and perception.

But it was also much better than half a month ago, so it didn't take too much time for him to learn so many advanced spell skills at the same time.

And with the help of this process of concentrating on learning skills, he naturally calmed down and was able to think more rationally......

Moved a chair and sat in front of the fireplace in the hall on the first floor, Xia Ran flicked his fingers directly, and a spark shot out from his fingertips, and the flames in the fireplace suddenly burst into flames. The enhanced skills are all at the level of direct mastery and will not be limited by rigidity.

He doesn't necessarily have to blast out a big fireball to release the fireball technique, it is easy to do such a thing, and as the intelligence, spirit and other attributes become higher and higher, the calculation ability and manipulation ability are getting stronger and stronger, and naturally he can do more refined operations.

That's right, the increase in attributes can not only strengthen the effect of amplifying the power of skills, but also enable precision micro-manipulation in turn.

The wood crackles in the fire, burns and cracks because of the flame, and the heat emitted is warm, and under this lazy and comfortable feeling, people will inevitably feel relaxed.

Xia Ran was the same, thinking about something while adding firewood to the fireplace.

That bear kid is probably the one who was bewitched by the demon god in the plot, and he is very good at discovering secrets, but as a child, he can't do anything further, so the demon god can only turn his hopes to bewitch the player.

He struggled to recall the plot setting-

In the depths of the basement of the Longxiao Palace, there is a door hidden that cannot be opened, and the Ebony Blade is hidden in it, firmly sealed...... Only lords and court mages can open the door.

On top of that, it seems that even the Whispering Lady herself can't do anything, and he bluntly says that his own eyes can't see through the seal, so he must trick someone else into doing this kind of thing on his behalf, unleashing a part of his power......

And according to the bear child, it is true that someone has already opened the door and taken away the demon artifact, which is one thing that can be confirmed. And in this way, it seems to be connected to some things that I don't understand.

The only key to open that door was the key on the lord and the court mage Fa Renga, and other than that, it seemed impossible to violently break the seal, after all, even the demon god had no choice, although it was also said that it was impossible for the Whispering Lady to really come to the world and go all out.

But it is enough to explain the problem, since Longxiao Palace has not been bombed into the sky, and Xueman City has not been erased from the map of Skyrim Province, then presumably that lost person has no choice and no ability to violently break the liberation seal.

He should have obtained the key, opened the seal, and took the demon artifact...... Maybe Fa Renga didn't show up because he was really hit hard, maybe even killed by the lost man altogether.

Even if this is not the case, it must have something to do with this matter, which is why it will lead to the phenomenon that the court mage has not shown up for a long time.

Lord Balguf was absolutely aware of the theft of the Demon Artifact, but it was impossible to say this kind of thing publicly, so he could only pretend that nothing had happened...... Or maybe it was because the seal had been lifted that he was forced to take a big gamble on the vanished Farenga?

- This can also be explained, although there is no way to sort out the complete context, but some clues are connected.

"Now that the demon artifact has been taken, there should be no problem, and Mepharah's attention should be completely absorbed by that crazy guy...... Unless that guy has made a successful return to the White Space? ”

Xia Ran thought calmly, but he couldn't convince himself, but he had more and more of an ominous premonition.

Before something big happens, there is always a small precursor to the surrounding area. The more powerful the being, the more pronounced the sense of this tiny aura becomes.

Although he is not very powerful, his intuition is very keen, and many times things that he has not yet realized may already be processed and subtle calculations in his subconscious, so perhaps this ominous premonition is most likely not an illusion.

"I shouldn't be targeted, as long as I don't go to the door under Longxiao Palace that can't be opened......"

Xia Ran blinked, and the voice of trying to persuade himself slowly became quieter.

Basement.

Doors that can't be opened.

Why do you feel like you have a sense of déjà vu? Is it an illusion, have you already been to the depths of the basement of Longxiao Palace before, and have you touched the door that can't be opened?

He threw down the firewood in his hand, turned around and pushed the door open. It was a full half hour before he cautiously walked into the room again, his face looking particularly gloomy and ugly...... There is no basement in this house, no matter who it is.

He even went to ask Provantus, the governor of the court, and said that he was going to decorate the house...... As a result, the other party put forward various suggestions, that is, it never said how the basement should be placed, because this house has no basement design at all.

Xia Ran's scalp was numb at that time, and he was about to pack up his things, so he ran away overnight.

Isn't it scary that Lady Whispering hasn't been eyeing him, but she's staring at him from the beginning?

But he is still very sensible, and being targeted by a demon god is definitely not something that can be solved overnight by packing up and running away. After all, the essence of the demon god is not in this world, but in another realm.

There is no difference between Lady Whispering's observation of Snow Man and observing the rest of Skyrim Province, even if Xia Ran left the Tamriel Continent directly, as long as she is still on this planet, then she is still under the watchful eye of Whispering Lady.

It will not be said that if you change regions, the other party's network nodes will be delayed, which will cause great difficulties to connect, and then you will not be able to search Xia Ran's room......

Therefore, after careful consideration, Xia Ran still came back with a hard head - no one was waiting for him in the house, and the fire in the fireplace was still burning, but the firewood was about to run out.

The room was bright in the light of the fire and candles, except for some unavoidable corners where shadows flickered...... Knowing that there was nothing there, but it could be psychological, he always felt that something was watching him in the shadows.

“……”

“……”

Xia Ran didn't say anything, on the surface unmoved, and returned to the fireplace and sat down. He slowly picked up the pieces of meat from the table next to him, skewered them with an iron fork, and roasted them on the flame, pretending that he didn't know anything.

That's right, drag on time!

This is the only way for him at the moment, since half a month has passed, and Mephalah has not taken any action, so it is better not to take any action all the time, and just treat himself as if he doesn't know anything.

Try not to upset the balance and drag on for a while...... If you can just do it until the end of the stay time, and return to the white space in an instant, then it is naturally the best, no matter how strong the demon god is, he can't chase it over.

No matter how bad it is, you have to delay it as much as possible, and the closer you are to the return time, the more hope you have......

Because other than that, he really doesn't have any way, the other party is a demon god, and he can't kill him with a finger.

It is definitely impossible to fight by force, and it is one thing if he is a hundred times stronger, as for what kind of intelligent confrontation he has, let's rest...... People stand high and see far away, maybe they can see the past and the future, how can mortals play with him?

Besides, Xia Ran still didn't know what the Whispering Lady was up to, which made him feel uncertain.

Sitting in front of the fireplace, pretending that nothing had happened, he subconsciously wanted to call out to his left hand, but Xiao Zuo, who seemed to be in a deep sleep, did not respond......

Of course, even after completing his evolution, he didn't think his left hand could help much.
