"So you don't know, I just thought I was cowardly in front of the masters......

After a pause, Alder continued: "Yes, indeed, but the locks I picked before only had three protrusions, and this lock had four protrusions, and the fourth protrusion was in a strange position, so I couldn't do anything about it. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info: I'm curious how you're going to open this lock......"

Knowing that Liu Ling didn't know anything about unlocking before this, Alder was a little suspicious of how Liu Ling was going to open the lock.

"Don't forget, I'm a mage! I have mental power, and I can directly see the structure inside the lock, so you can put 10,000 hearts. After noticing that Alder's tone was a little suspicious, Liu Ling said.

"Even if you have mental strength, what can you do? It is impossible to see clearly in the darkness until the spiritual power reaches the level of a high-level mage, not to mention that the structure inside the lock is so complex......"

As he spoke, Alder seemed to think of something, swallowed hard and said, "Since you were so confident just now, it means that you have reached the level of a high-level mage!" The damage to your soul has healed! When is the matter! ”

Alder was a little incredulous about what he had deduced, but it was the most plausible explanation, and he had to believe it.

"That's right. My soul is restored, otherwise what would I do when I go back to school? Liu Ling said to Alder with a smile on his face.

In fact, at the beginning, Liu Ling didn't plan to let Alder know that his spiritual power was at the level of a high-level mage, because he didn't have a trace of mana in his body now, and this situation had never appeared before on the Kela Continent, so it was very troublesome to make up a reason.

But because he inadvertently revealed that his spiritual power could see the structure inside the lock, Alder thought of his soul restoration, and Liu Ling really couldn't find any excuse at this time, so he followed Alder's words.

Anyway, you can't keep your strength hidden in school after that, so it doesn't matter if you tell Alder at this time.

"How was it restored? I remember that the professors in the academy couldn't heal your soul when they joined forces, what magical power restored your soul? ”

"Uh...... I just found a strange flower that can heal the soul in the Cabal jungle, and then the soul will naturally recover......" Liu Ling didn't think carefully about how to explain the restoration of his soul before, and he couldn't tell others that he actually crossed over from the earth, and the previous Meri had already crossed over to the earth. So when faced with the question raised by Alder, Liu Ling quickly found a reason.

"yes, got it." Alder saw that Liu Ling's answer was a little distracted, and felt that there must be some reasons in this that could not be known to others. He is not a person who likes to inquire about other people's secrets, since Liu Ling is reluctant to say, he simply stopped asking and returned to the previous topic.

"Now that you can see the structure inside the lock, it's much easier, you just need to press down the four protrusions inside the lock at the same time, and the lock will naturally be opened. However, even if you can see the structure inside the lock, the force used to press down each protrusion is different, and it is not easy to master without a lot of practice. Since you want to try it, then you can try it, and you don't have to force yourself if you can't open it. I still have this. As he spoke, Alder raised the axe in his hand.

"Got it, I'll give it a try."

Liu Ling gently put the two daggers he was holding on the ground, twisted the iron wire in his hand into two and began his lock-picking work.

In fact, not everyone can learn the technical work of picking locks, because the structure inside the lock is too fine, and the slightest carelessness in the process of picking the lock will be wasted. This requires the person who picks the lock to have a pair of flexible hands and a very accurate understanding of the strength of his hands.

Liu Ling has the spiritual power of a senior mage, which is indeed of great help to pick the lock, and it is estimated that before Liu Ling, there is really no one with the spiritual power of a senior mage who will pick the lock, which is not very glorious in ordinary people.

Because since they all possess the spiritual power of high-level mages, their own magic attainments must also be extremely profound, not to mention this kind of small lock, even if there is an iron bull in front of them, they can destroy it without much effort.

Moreover, mages are an extremely noble profession on the Kella continent, and this kind of thing is usually learned by street thugs, not to mention high-level mages, and even trainee mages disdain to learn such unpopular skills.

Only an alien like Liu Ling, who had crossed over from Earth, would be interested in asking Alder for details about lockpicking.

After everything was ready, Liu Ling first put one of the wires into the keyhole, locked the spring-like protrusions in the keyhole with his mental power, and then adjusted the force on his hand to press down those protrusions one by one.

In fact, Liu Ling still has an advantage that ordinary mages do not have, that is, his physical fitness is much stronger than that of ordinary mages.

As we all know, mages improve their strength through meditation all year round, except for the necessary cultivation, they basically stay at home, and the more powerful the mage, the more so. Moreover, mages often use their bodies as a medium for the transmission of magic, so that their bodies are even less than ordinary people.

But Liu Ling's strength improved through the bracer is quite balanced, and each level of improvement is not only the strength of mana but also the strength and physique of his body, so at this time, Liu Ling's physique is already much stronger than ordinary people, not to mention those mages who are weak.

Because of the improvement of physical fitness, Liu Ling's mastery of the strength of the hand has long exceeded the level that ordinary people can master, although the first attempt to suppress the three protrusions at the same time failed, but after some adjustment, the second time Liu Ling was very easy to successfully suppress the three protrusions.

At this time, there is only one protrusion left in the lock, which is also where Alder failed just now. But for Liu Ling, this is even simpler than pressing down the three protrusions at the same time before.

Because Alder had failed before because he couldn't accurately determine the exact location of the fourth protrusion, Liu Ling was able to clearly see the structure inside the lock.

So Liu Ling adjusted his strength, took the second wire, and gently poked it towards the position where the fourth wire was, only to hear a click, and the lock opened in response.

The whole process took less than half a minute......
