Chapter 6: The Dragons
"Qian Liao?" Vivian's eyes widened, his face full of curiosity, "Who is that?" He, like the shaman of the steppe, would use forbidden spiritualism? β
"No, it's a little different," Ji Liangying explained to Vivian as he rinsed the dish soap left on the bowl with clean water, "He's a supernatural and doesn't know any magic, but his ability is very magical, and he only needs a sword to bring the Eternal King back to the world." β
"So powerful? There he is? Take me to him. β
"I have to ask him out first, you are a foreigner, Arthur is the king of a foreign land, and this city is the first-tier city of this country, the economic center. You summon a character from an exotic legend here, and you will be attacked by a horde of Anomalous Beings. β
"Well, indeed, I have nothing to complain about even if I am arrested and put under strict guard, or sent back to my country." After understanding the situation, Vivian stood up and bowed in the direction of Ji Liangying, "Thank you very much for your willingness to take the risk to help me. β
"It's nothing, just be careful, everything can be solved." Ji Liangying was telling the truth, but he deliberately concealed a part, that is, Qian Liao's ability will consume different degrees of energy according to what he wants to do, and the source of energy can be designated by himself, it can be extracted from the leylines, it can absorb the vitality of the surrounding plants, and naturally it can also absorb the sword of the king as a summoning medium.
In the end, all you need to do is destroy the sword as a consumable, and then disguise yourself as King Arthur and take the sword himself, and everything can end happily.
After breakfast, Ji Liangying called to ask for a leave, and then asked Wei Wei'an to stay at home, and he was ready to leave to find Qian Liao.
"Take this sword with you." Just as he was about to leave, Vivian handed Ji Liangying the tightly wrapped sword.
"Don't worry if I find an antique store to sell?" Ji Liangying asked.
"You won't," Vivian shook his head, "I trust you." β
(Believe me?) Then in return, the sword won't bother you for long. οΌ
Ji Liangying carefully pinched the wrapping canvas on the package and left the house.
The place he is going to is called Tengyun Building, the official name is Tengyun Restaurant, which is built next door to the Sanxing Academy of the Oblique Moon, in addition to the function of the restaurant itself, it is also the headquarters of the country's official supernatural management organization "Strange People and Strange Things Committee", and the leading group of the committee, the "Qinglong Study Group", that is, the "Dragon Group" is resident here.
Walking into Tengyun Tower, a receptionist in a suit and leather shoes immediately stopped him.
"Sir, may I ask what you are holding in your hand?"
"Probably a metal sword." Ji Liangying replied.
Hearing the metal sword, the receptionist frowned, and then said, "I'm sorry, sir, it's forbidden to carry controlled knives here, please give it to me, and I'll give it back to you when you leave." β
Let's do itβ
"There are always exceptions."
Ji Liangying snapped his fingers, and his soul shadow "Silent Night" emerged from behind, and the receptionist nodded immediately when he saw this, and asked respectfully: "May I ask what your number is?" β
β0-36γβ
"Oh, Mr. Ji Liangying, please come in."
According to the number, the receptionist confirmed Ji Liangying's identity, and then made a gesture of please.
Ji Liangying nodded, walked past him, and walked straight to the counter.
Behind the counter sat a woman in casual clothes, she was holding her mobile phone at this time, her fingers sliding every once in a while, Ji Liangying thought she should be reading a comic.
"Qianshuang, is Qian Liao here?"
Zhao Qianshuang raised her head and carefully looked at Liangying for a while, about ten seconds old, her originally confused face suddenly brightened.
"Five months...... No, five months and twenty-six days, I haven't seen you for so long, Liangying. β
"You remember it very clearly," Ji Liangying smiled, and then asked, "Then about the question just now." β
"He just came back, room 306, I guess he was interrogating, he said you sent it."
"Well, when he knocked on my door in the morning, I felt suspicious, so I punched him."
"You finally can't stand the loneliness of being single, which lady did you kidnap?" Qianshuang narrowed her eyes, staring at Ji Liangying uncomfortably.
ββ¦β¦ How could you think that? Ji Liangying asked.
"It seems that my guess is not far from ten." Qianshuang smiled, then tapped on the keyboard with a free hand, "Go ahead." β
"Just now?"
"You've clocked in for the first time in five months and 26 days."
Ascending to the third floor along the wooden handrail, counting the house numbers and looking for them one by one, Ji Liangying finally arrived at the door of Room 306.
He slammed the door gently, and a moment later, the door opened a crack.
"Good Shadow? Come in. The woman who opened the door confirmed the identity of the visitor and slammed the door shut.
Ji Liangying was now in front of the door, a little confused.
"Hey! Shao Yun, it's you, although I didn't see my face clearly, but this approach must be something you can't be wrong, open the door quickly, you misremember my ability, I really can't pass through the wall! β
After a roar and slamming the door, the sound of the doorknob turning came from behind the door again, taking advantage of this opportunity, Ji Liangying immediately activated his ability.
The door that hadn't been opened suddenly sped open in front of his eyes, and he walked directly into the door, and then disabled the ability.
Everything around returned to its original state, the door returned to the state that had not yet been opened, and the only change was that Ji Liangying went from "outside the door" to "inside the house".
"Experience the future in advance, this is my ability," Ji Liangying turned around and explained to the girl who was now holding the doorknob, "In the next ten seconds, you will open the door, then when my ability occurs, this future will happen in advance, so for you, 'the door that is about to be opened, but has not yet opened', seems to me to have opened." β
"But unlike the past that has been fixed, the future is changeable, and the future I experience will change because of my behavior, just like now, because I am already standing in the house, so you don't need to open the door again, 'open the door, Ji Liangying walks in' This kind of future is no longer possible."
"So remember, my ability is not to pierce walls or teleport into the house, but to jump time and delete this time."
"Can you put it more simply?" Another man in the room asked.
"No, it doesn't show the strength and might of my ability." Ji Liangying raised his head with a righteous face.
"Oh? It's a shame that every word in such a long passage is the crystallization of the wisdom of human civilization, and now you are using it to describe a little trick that can only be a street show. β
"Streeting? I have the ability to change the future. β
"How does it compare to my 'replay' of the record and knowing all the answers in the world through the theory of six degrees of separation?"
"I have a specialization in the art industry, but I think I'm still stronger, and you can't find out that thing for you to check."
"It's better than when you were in school and had the ability to peep into the women's locker room."
"Qian Liao, do you want to fight when you say that?"
"Ji Liangying, don't think that my ability is suitable for detecting me, I will fool you, I don't even need to use my ability to beat you."
"Ahem-" Seeing that the two were about to pinch up because of an inexplicable conversation, the woman standing next to the door coughed twice, and when she heard her voice, the two were stunned for a moment.
"Oh, my dear friend, I haven't seen you for a long time, how are you doing?" Ji Liangying changed his previous attitude and walked towards Qian Liao.
"Of course, it's really hard for you, my sincere brother, to see that you are healthy and healthy, more than anything else."
Qian Liao also stretched out his hand, and the two of them shook each other with the strength of breastfeeding, and the smile on the corner of their mouths became a little stiff because of the excessive force.
"Ah, dear friend, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you don't seem to be as good as before."
"Ah, sincere brother, how come it seems to me that your hands are soft, have you been overworked lately?"
