Chapter Twenty-Six: The Mu Scam
Three days later, the two returned to the White Rock mine.
Mu Yan took Surya to the entrance of the copy in his memory, which surprised Zaix, who saw this scene.
Is there a tunnel in the White Rock Mine that leads directly to my castle? This kid even knows? Who did the "Fireside Night Talk", could it be the old immortal headmaster of Morrowind?
For a time, Zaix's brain was replenished.
Mu Yan didn't expect that his temporary intention would make the other party think so much.
Two jet-black gargoyles more than two meters long fell from the sky, their ruby eyes glowing scarlet even during the day.
A gargoyle landed on the ground, its mouth began to open and close, and the mage's voice came out of it.
"I've made a terrace up there, come up on gargoyles, be careful not to scratch their claws."
Mu Yan pursed his lips and stretched out his hands for the gargoyle to grasp, and Surya followed his example.
As the gargoyle continued to rise, the full picture of the future "Immortal Courtyard" gradually appeared in his field of vision.
Compared with the real copy, the current "courtyard" has only a prototype, that is, the terrace in the other party's mouth. In the future, it will rise more than 40 meters, from a terrace halfway up the mountain to a sky courtyard, with pale marble pillars standing all around, the top carved into a slightly drooping angel, and the delicate face is like a fairy building falling from the sky.
After landing on the ground, Mu Yan stared at the bare ground and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
In the future, this place will be engraved with magic patterns, and in the center will be Grace's ice coffin, absorbing the gathered moonlight essence.
It seemed that he hadn't started his mad experiments yet, but according to the records in the codex, he had already been in contact with Leorik by this time.
"What are you thinking?" Zaix suddenly appeared.
"Is there anything special about that piece of floor you're staring at?"
"It's clean, what are you going to do?" Mu Yan asked knowingly.
Zaix was startled, and he gave the other a strange look on his face.
Could it be that this kid is a roundworm in my stomach? That's when I thought of drawing a circle here......
"Let's not talk about this, let's talk about the harvest of this trip."
Mu Yan and Su Lia glanced at each other, and then said.
"We ...... Go in and say? โ
Zayx raised his eyebrows, and a sneer appeared on his handsome face.
He waved his hand, and the gargoyle grabbed Mu Yan's arm and flew straight out of the terrace.
"Shamuโ"
Surya was shocked, and the heavy sword was instantly launched.
"Stop! Surya! โ
"Heh, don't you want to die?"
The two spoke almost at the same time.
"It's okay, Mr. Zaix just wants me to tell the truth." Mu Yan was still smiling.
He expected this scene when he stepped onto the terrace, and he also figured out that the other party would force himself to play the game of "pirate springboard".
"There is no time limit this time, you can say as long as you want." Zaix said lightly, and he also took out a nanmu chair and sat down comfortably.
"It's just that the gargoyle's fragile claws hold on for ten minutes at most."
Mu Yan looked at the small scene under his feet and swallowed.
"I convinced Anthony to let go of his resentment, cut himself off, and actually got the golden apple."
"Go on."
"However, in the follow-up plan, I was seriously injured, and in order to save me, Surya used up the golden apple."
"Why don't you just come back after you get it?"
"Because I swore to Mia that I would give Anthony a clean ...... That's why I heard Mia's voice after eating the golden apple! โ
Zaix sneered disdainfully and gave him a "please continue your performance" look.
I haven't been afraid of anyone in making up stories, Mu Yan also sneered in his heart, and began the magic reform after telling the truth.
"Mia told me that the true brave will not die here, so this golden apple is destined to belong to me, as for you...... She said that you, like Anthony, are people who are desperate for love, but your respective ways of salvation are in your own hands, and you caught it, but he didn't.
She also asked me to tell you that the golden apple could not revive people who had been dead for a long time, and their souls were soaked in the River Styx, a place where the living could not reach. The reason why you are saying that you have grasped the way to salvation is because the necromancer is the only living person who can touch the river Styx......"
Mu Yan kept staring at the other party's eyes, and sure enough, as soon as this passage came out, Zaix no longer had any joke in his eyes, and became a little serious.
"Go on."
His tone didn't sound so peaceful anymore.
"She also said that the man named Leorick was a big liar, and that the real lies were all seven points true and three points false, and that everything he had told you before was bait, just waiting for you to bite the hook, and after that, it was time for the lie to appear......"
"What else?"
The mage was visibly urgent.
"And ...... Yes!!! โ
The gargoyle's claws suddenly shattered, and Mu Yan suddenly let out a scream like killing a pig.
"Shamuโ" Surya didn't have time to think about it, and sprang out with a kick on his feet.
However, Zayx was faster than her, and by the time the girl ran to the edge of the terrace, the mage had already completed a round trip with the "Twelve-Yard Flash" and brought someone back by the way.
He was so excited that he forgot to use the "mage's hand" directly.
Sulia hurriedly ran back and helped Mu Yan up.
He stood up, signaled that he was okay, and then continued to say to Zayx, "Also, she said that if you don't believe this, let me prove myself with two things. โ
"What?"
"First, you have a codex from the year 770 of the Faith Calendar, on which you record your experiments and some whimsical ideas, as well as whispers from Leoric, but you can't find them now, right?"
Zaix nodded, and although eight points of reason told him that this kid was again, there were still two points of rebuttal, as if to say, "Pull you down, 'Fireside Talk' can find your lost codex?" And it's well-reasoned and convincing.
"So Mia told me where it was, andโ" Mu Yan paused. "This is also the second point, if you still don't believe me, then I will face the Colossus of Bones with Surya and defeat it with the teachings from Mia."
"Tell me where the codex is?"
"Uh...... In the belly of the Colossus of Bones. Mu Yan replied honestly.
With a flash of white light, Zaix vanished in an instant.
After a few breaths, the other party came back, still holding Mu Yan's familiar notebook in his hand.
I read such a private thing as a bedtime book for a long time...... Seeing the parties and props appear in front of him together, Mu Yan felt a little guilty.
In fact, on the seventeenth copy trip, Zaix himself dropped a notebook. The drop rate that players speculated on was correct, it was indeed one-third, and that note was also in his drop list, but it was different from the record of the mood change during the necromancer's period, and the note was full of broken thoughts of the mad lich, such as "I dreamed of Grace today, and she said that my bones are beautiful", "I dreamed of Grace again today, and she said that I looked horrible, like her dead grandmother", all of these are funny at first glance, but there is a deep sadness behind them, and some people say that this is officially taken out to deceive people's tears.
In contrast, the research significance of the first book is much higher, and the real materials that Mu Yan repeatedly dispelled the other party's concerns just now come from this. As he said, lies are all seven parts true and three parts false, and that's what he himself practiced.
Now Zayx had a ghostly expression, and it was obvious that the truth did not allow him to take Mu Yan's words as a deaf ear.
It sounds mysterious, but maybe this kid has really listened to Mia's teachings? It is even possible that he is the legendary "god favorite", otherwise why would his soul be attached to the body of the little grasshopper, this ability is unheard of, and human beings simply cannot do it.
Thinking of this, Zayx suddenly brightened up and began to believe in Mu Yan's nonsense.
"In that case, you don't have toโ"
"Wait, Mr. Zayx." Mu Yan interrupted him.
"I know you've believed me, but I'd like to challenge the Colossus of Bones." He said calmly.
For me, and for Surya. He added in his heart.
"Are you sure?" Zaix frowned. "Although it is only an alchemy creation, it was also the best among the fifth-level demonic beasts when it was alive, and now I don't know how many levels there are."
If you don't change your body, you will be a level 60 pure physical boss, Mu Yan replied in his heart.
"Mr. Jones, no matter how hard it is, I hope to challenge it." Surya spoke. "If I'm strong enough, I deserve to beat it, I shouldn't run away from it. If I'm too weak, I'll have to beat it so I can get a second golden apple to complete your order. โ
"Hehe, Mr. Jones, it's been a long time since anyone called me that." Zaix misses it a little.
The Rhine people are not good, but the granddaughter is still very sensible......
"You want to challenge yourself โ I can understand that. But ......" he turned to Mu Yan. "What are you doing here? Did you 'Fireside Chat' find a way to involve scholars in the battle? โ
Mu Yan smiled slightly.
"Not really, but Mr. Zaix, have you forgotten the role of the golden apple?"
"You mean ......"
"Please help me open the elemental passage, sir, I want to be a mage."
