Chapter 29: Stand-ins
The night was thick, and the moonlight poured down like flowing water. In such a cold winter, the people who run at night are wearing only a single coat and look very healthy.
Leaning on the park bench, Cheng Hai looked up and waited for a long time before someone finally approached him.
"Master."
Xu Yuan stood beside him, dressed like those passers-by who ran at night, and was also very cool.
"I said, don't call me master."
Opening his eyes, Cheng Hai looked at Xuyuan's figure and frowned slightly: "By the way, can your body-changing spell become my appearance?" I may have a task for you. β
Although the mirror doppelganger can help him attract the attention of the trial, his current strength is insufficient, and what he makes is a C-level mirror image. One has a distance limit, and the other has a time limit.
And Cheng Hai is in his normal form now, not like the period of Les Frost or Dante. When the mirror is turned on, it feels like he has to keep one eye to the left and the other to the right when walking, which makes him very tired after a long time, and it will affect his work.
In addition, Xiao Ai doesn't know when he will make a move, and if he launches a divine descent in the middle, it will also have an impact on this skill. Therefore, it would be much better to have the void abyss replace his surprise.
It just so happens that she also practices abyss spells, so she studies it when she has nothing to do, and it doesn't conflict with his personality.
The only difficulty is to find a way to get rid of her naΓ―ve personality first.
"Change the body, of course."
As she spoke, Void Abyss closed her eyes and recited a mantra, and her figure suddenly became a little more condensed, and her height was also raised by a few centimeters. In addition to the different clothes, the physical body seems to have changed into Cheng Hai's appearance.
Although he looked very similar to him, Cheng Hai still frowned and asked, "Can this state be maintained forever?" β
The Void Abyss has a characteristic of her race, when a large amount of mana is consumed, the surface of the body will reveal star stripes.
The starstripe can be covered with a mask, but because she has not used a similar spell since she became stronger, this transformation technique is only a small C-level spell, and it does not belong to the body's own control, and the stability needs to be studied.
"If it's not too expensive, that's fine." Void Abyss.
"What if we reduce the range of variation?"
"Stability can be four and a half times higher."
"Hmmm......"
Cheng Hai touched his chin and thought about it intently.
It will take some time to improve a spell, and it's not certain how much better it will be. In addition, he still has a bunch of precautions to tell her, and he definitely can't waste time.
In the end, Cheng Hai decided......
"Change back to your original self, let's go buy clothes."
"Buying clothes?" Void Abyss wondered.
"Or else? How long have you been wearing this outfit? Cheng Hai frowned.
This is not to say any battle robes, they have been on Earth for several years, and they are still wearing tattered. Visually, I was crazy about learning spells, and I wasn't interested in paying attention to these mundane things.
"It's only been more than twenty years." Void Abyss said as a matter of course.
At this point, they can use spells to keep their bodies clean.
But as a human being, Cheng Hai has a lot of grooves to vomit.
What's wrong with being strong?
Xiao Ai knows that every day is white!
"Let's go, buy you some good clothes, or others will say that I abuse you when they see it." Cheng Hai sighed.
So, the two of them came to a nearby pedestrian street together, surrounded by two rows of clothing stores.
"Take a look, if you like it, tell me, and you can buy a few sets for your sister. But first, keep these clothes for you to wear when this mission is completed. Cheng Hai first reminded Xuyuan of the truth.
She had to wear this custom wizard robe from him, and she couldn't change it at will.
In the event of a special battle, the star stripe can be covered with a mask. As for hairstyling...... Anyway, she didn't have the right to resist, so she could only cut it for the time being, and then use spells to spawn it later.
"Favorite ......"
Void Abyss raised his head and looked at the brightly lit street, his gaze gradually frozen.
"Not this ......"
Cheng Hai straightened her head, let her eyes leave the underwear store, and said, "Let's buy coats and other things first, and you can go in and buy them yourself later." β
Void Abyss turned his head suspiciously, and slowly typed a question mark.
"Don't ask, it's an order!"
Cheng Hai didn't want to explain this.
"Oh."
Abyss nodded and walked into one of the women's clothing stores.
Seeing her maverick cool makeup, the female clerk in charge of greeting her was startled at first, and then glanced at Cheng Hai strangely, thinking that they were playing some strange py.
"Take her out on some clothes."
Adhering to the principle that I am not embarrassed, and what is embarrassed is others, Cheng Hai explained a sentence and walked to the leather shoe store next door and bought a pair of discounted shoes of the same style.
Of course, the booster pads have not been forgotten.
The Void Abyss was a little shorter than him, but not much, about four centimeters, so that he could meet the standard.
When he returned to the women's clothing store, Xu Yuan was following the female shopping guide to touch and try it, and the whole person's mouth had always maintained an "O" shape, and the eloquence of the shopping guide was praised in the clouds.
"Heh, woman......" Cheng Hai shook his head.
It seems that no matter how strong a woman is, she can't help but be fascinated by shopping.
It's in nature!
Fortunately, he has money now.
"Then here's the problem......"
Looking at the void abyss standing in front of the fitting mirror, Cheng Hai suddenly frowned.
Although his robe is loose, her figure should be concave and convex, in case she lies flat or whatever, it is still easy to show her stuffing at a critical moment.
"So, this is to buy a chest bundle to protect yourself?"
Thinking about it, Cheng Hai couldn't help but look at the underwear store on the other side.
I don't know if there's anything like that.
"Or ...... Over there? β
After hesitating, Cheng Hai looked at the pharmacy not far away.
I have the impression that in the cartoons I watched when I was a child, those girls were wearing bandages.
So......
Which one is true?
Holding this doubt, Cheng Hai turned his head and wanted Xu Yuan to ask by himself, but seeing that she was still immersed in the sea of clothing, he dispelled this idea again.
After all, he has never been a real tyrant, and when he is angry, he can't really treat people as slaves. Besides, in ancient times, subordinates had to pay attention to beating a stick and giving a candy, since she is in a good mood now, let her enjoy it for a while.
It's just that......
Who do you want to say hello to?
"It's past nine o'clock in the evening, and the university should be out of class too, right?"
Cheng Hai doesn't have many friends, and his girlfriend ...... There are not many female friends, and the only one who can think of it at this time is Ji Youzhu.
In his previous impression, there were generally no classes in the evening, so it was free time, and there should be time.
So, he dialed the death number.
At this time, in the dormitory of Hagikai Academy, Ji Youzhu was leaning over under the lamp, carrying out a tense final sprint.
Lin Yumu, who had just finished chasing an episode of a Korean drama on the bed, glanced at her and shook her head helplessly.
Ji Youzhu's state has lasted for three days.
For a normal bastard, the last month of revision for the final exams of college is sufficient. In a period with few classes like the junior year, you can even do it yourself within half a month.
At this moment, the ringtone of the mobile phone suddenly rang, Ji Youzhu frowned subconsciously, and then became nervous.
"No look of disgust?"
Lin Yumu narrowed his eyes, as if he had discovered the situation.
saw Ji Youzhu quickly pressed the answer button, and responded in a low voice: "Cheng Hai? β
"Cheng Hai? Hey hey ......"
Smelling the smell of gossip, Lin Yumu carefully got up from the bed and crawled out of bed like a boneless snake without a sound.
"Are you free?"
In the middle of the city, Cheng Hai asked, surrounded by the sound of advertisements amplified by speakers.
"Discounts? Sale? Also ask me if I'm free? Could this be...... Ask me out?! β
Ji Youzhu was overjoyed, and nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes!" β
"Then let me ask you ......"
Cheng Hai was about to ask a question, but Xu Yuan had already walked out with the shopping guide, and said beside him: "Master, I don't like any of these." β
"Don't like it?!"
Cheng Hai was stunned suddenly, and then looked at the face of the shopping guide at this time, it was green!
Of course, this is nonsense!
The customers who received him happily changed more than a dozen sets of clothes with others, but they didn't buy any of them when they came out.
"I'll call you later!"
Hung up the phone in a hurry, and Cheng Hai was busy dealing with things over there.
"The host ......"
In the dormitory, Ji Youzhu still put the phone on his face, his face was dull, and his soul was already out of his body.
Cheng Hai, that guy...... What the hell are you doing?
