Chapter 65 Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills
"Smart people really understand a little, but ......" Suddenly hearing the ancient one's interjection, Patch couldn't help but be slightly stunned, but then he couldn't help but let out a narrow smile in his heart, and continued to mutter: "However, what you think of is wrong." ”
Truly!
The Ancient One's conjectures were indeed wrong, because the speculations she generated were all Patchy guiding her step by step towards what she thought was reasonable, and in such a situation, if the Ancient One could still guess the true situation of the alien energy just now, then it would really be a ghost.
And to be honest, the xenomorph energy that volatilized from Patch's body just now is indeed not much different from the attributes of dark energy, both of which have a chaotic, dark, and turbid aura at the same time, although the ancient one has suffered from dark energy, but Patch is still confident that he will succeed in hiding from the ancient one.
And looking at the expression of the ancient one now, she was obviously convinced of her own conjecture.
"Yes, Ancient One, you guessed right."
After chuckling in his heart for a while, Patch's expression immediately turned serious, and he said slowly: "After the explosion of the Void Exchange last time, a dark energy invaded my body at some point, and at first I just felt that something was slightly wrong, so I didn't dig too deep. But ......"
As he spoke, Patch's eyelids lifted slightly, staring at the Ancient One with a slight frown, and continued to open his mouth to say, "But after coming to Kama Taj and reading a large number of basic magic texts here to gain a deeper understanding of the dark energy, I immediately discovered the seriousness of this matter. ”
"Fortunately, it's not too late for me to find out, although these small amounts of dark energy are extremely troublesome to deal with, there are still many solutions, and the aura that you just sensed just now is what I can leak out of this dark energy."
"That's ...... so"
After listening to Patch's explanation, Gu Yi's eyes couldn't help but widen a little, and then he looked at Patch with an eager face, and asked aloud, "Mr. Maidis, have you now expelled those dark energies?" ”
"Dark energy is like a bone appendage, how can it be so easy to completely solve it." Pache shook his head, let out a long breath, and deliberately pretended to be helpless and said, "Judging from the current situation, it will take almost a few months or even half a year to expel all these dark energies. ”
"Half a year?"
Gu Yi was slightly surprised, and asked again: "But Mr. Mevis, didn't it take too much time for you to use the magic array to help me seal the dark energy in my body before?" Why is it taking so long this time? ”
"Ancient One, I think you're getting a question wrong." Hearing the Ancient One's question, Patch responded with a straight face.
After a slight pause, Patch continued: "The situation I am facing now is very different from your previous situation, and as you just said, I just used the magic array to seal the dark energy in your body, this is just a special method for you, and this method is only temporarily suppressing the dark energy in your body. ”
"Ancient One Mage, if the magic array I arranged in your body is destroyed, the previous dark energy will definitely emerge again, and the price you will suffer will definitely be even greater."
Patch said these words with a serious face on his frown, and the ancient one, who had heard his words, couldn't help but nervous on his originally loose face.
But in less than a moment, the tension on Gu's face dissipated in an instant, and I saw that she even showed a hint of an open-minded smile, and said to Patch: "Mr. Mevis, I am already very satisfied to be able to suppress the dark energy in my body for a period of time, and if I am completely swallowed by the dark energy, I can no longer protect the safety of the earth in the multiverse, but this is still you, isn't it?" ”
As he spoke, the Ancient One mage suddenly looked at Patch, leaned his head slightly and continued to speak, "If one day I am gone, I believe that Mr. Mevis you will definitely take on the responsibility of defending the earth, right?" ”
Catching up with the Ancient One's gaze, Patch just smiled slightly, and opened his mouth to respond: "Ancient One Mage, in fact, you don't have to be too pessimistic, in my opinion, there should be no one on the earth today except you and me who has the ability to destroy the magic array in your body, so you don't have to worry." ”
"I know my own situation." Gu Yi nodded silently, and then changed the topic to another aspect: "Mr. Maivis, you should tell me about your business!" After all, I don't want you to follow in my footsteps anytime soon. ”
"Okay!" Patch nodded and then told the Ancient One about his situation: "Ancient One, I seem to have said just now, my situation is very different from yours. ”
"Let me give you an analogy! If the dark energy accumulated in your body before was like a pond, then the dark energy in my body is almost like a puddle of water, although this metaphor may not seem very appropriate, but it can make you intuitively understand the difference. ”
After thinking about it sideways, Patch continued: "And the method of expelling dark energy is like the sun that evaporates the water, a small puddle will eventually dry up after a period of exposure to the sun, and a pond obviously does not have that possibility, so I used the magic array to seal the dark energy in your body before It is just to seal this pond and not let the pond overflow too much." ”
"In layman's terms, Mr. Mevis, I think I should understand the difference you just mentioned." After listening to Patci's explanation, the ancient one couldn't help but nod thoughtfully and responded loudly.
After saying this, Gu Yi pondered for a while, and then continued to speak: "Mr. Maivis, although the dark energy in your body is not a big problem for you, I still have to say sorry to you here. ”
As he spoke, Gu Yi suddenly leaned down and bowed slightly to Packy, and then said with a guilty face: "If it weren't for helping me that caused that explosion, maybe you wouldn't have been infected by the dark energy that escaped from my body." ”
"It's so cool to fool people!" After hearing the Ancient One's words and seeing her performance, Patch couldn't help but feel an inexplicable sense of pleasure, and at the same time, he exclaimed in his heart.
Because as long as the ancient one said this, it means that she will owe Patch a great favor for it. After all, Pache caused the invasion of dark energy because he helped her, although this is not the case, but it can't stand the ancient one herself thinking so!
