Chapter 639: Before the Raiders

Qiao Xiu finished eating the barbecue made by Ciri, and sat down with Ciri under the shade of the World Tree with Ciri.

"I remember that Beauty and the Devil was labeled as love romance, so horror is a movie that makes people feel scared?"

Ciri looked up at the silver-white leaves falling from above, and chatted with Qiao Xiu about some inconsequential topics as she lost her time.

"Hmm... Speaking ......"

Qiao Xiu turned his head sideways to look at the young spellcaster sitting next to him, perhaps because Ciri had recently read the Nolan Fashion Magazine written by the Dark Elves.

Her outfit gradually changed from the leather armor outfit and spellcaster's robe of the 'Combat School' to the girl-skewed type.

Today's outfit is shorts with white over-the-knee socks... Before, Qiao Xiu was busy dealing with those High Elves and didn't notice Ciri's outfit.

It wasn't until now that Qiao Xiu noticed that Ciri's outfit might make a certain type of person commit a crime.

"How... What's wrong? ”

The moment Ciri felt Qiao Xiu's gaze, he subconsciously covered the part of his skin exposed between his knee socks and shorts with his hand.

She didn't look like she was used to this girly outfit.

"What makes a horror movie to you?"

Qiao Xiu cleared his throat and asked a more serious topic.

Unlike creatures on the earth that are like ghosts and ghosts, which only exist in the reverie of human beings, the undead in this world are real, and humans even have the profession of necromancer.

Most of the horror movies that Qiao Xiu knows of use ghosts and ghosts to create a terrifying atmosphere.

"My word ......"

"Imagine a scenario that scares you." Qiao Xiu continued to add.

"When I came home in the evening, I found that the last bit of food in the kitchen had been eaten by mice! The rat ran away! Ciri replied immediately.

In a sense... This is indeed a very terrifying scene for Ciri.

"What about the undead? Ciri: Are you afraid of ghosts or skeletons? ”

"It's not so scared, it's just a little tricky, but in addition to the necromancers, there are still many people who are afraid of the undead, just like my sister, when she was a child, she couldn't walk when she met a geist, and I brought her home."

Ciri ruthlessly revealed the weaknesses of his sister Herlan to Qiao Xiu.

"It's tricky..."

This is not the word Qiao Xiu wants to hear, after the existence of the undead in this world, there are more ways to deal with them, and some high-level spellcasters may only feel fear of the same 'powerful' undead.

"It seems that we can only take the route of psychological terror."

"Psychological? Have you figured out the script? ”

There was a strange light in Ciri's eyes, and Qiao Xiu looked at Ciri's expression, if she had a tail, she would definitely wag very happily.

"Not yet, I'm going to go back and check something today."

Qiao Xiu glanced back at the World Tree behind him, and while eating lunch, Qiao Xiu once again entered the consciousness space of the World Tree.

Before she could stay there for long, Qiao Xiu was dragged into the consciousness space of "Loyal Dog Hachiko" again, and she seemed to know when Qiao Xiu would enter the consciousness space.

Qiao Xiu wants to build a server with peace of mind, so he has to kick that guy out first.

………………

Nolan, the Mage Tower of the Grey Cloak

"Haven't you moved out yet?"

Josiu walked inside the Tower of the Sages and saw the duo of two nun-writers, Cheryl and Denissa.

Now they have become a duo of maids and bird keepers.

If Qiao Xiu remembers correctly, since the last time the copyright of the two of them was officially sold, they have become Nolan's sought-after writers.

The money she could earn in a month was enough to meet Cheryl's goal of buying a manor in Nolan.

"Denisha says it's nice to live here."

After seeing Qiao Xiu, the original judge Cheryl, still had no respect in her attitude.

"Ahh Mr. Joshua and Miss Ciri do you need me to make you a cup of tea? ”

On the other hand, Sister Denessa's attitude towards Qiao Xiu was much more respectful, and she hurriedly ran in front of Qiao Xiu, while Ciri, who was standing behind Qiao Xiu, kept staring at the two lumps of flesh shaking in front of the nun's chest.

"It's just fat."

Qiao Xiu could faintly hear Ciri whispering.

"No need, you guys keep busy, I'm just here to check some things with the gray-clothed man."

Qiao Xiu silently glanced at Sister Denisha in front of her, this nun may be too impatient, and when she stood up to greet Qiao Xiu, she didn't have time to close her magic network interface.

The translucent magic web interface clearly presented the content written by Dinisha in front of Qiao Xiu's eyes, although the words were reversed, Qiao Xiu could still vaguely read some content that made people blush and heartbeat.

"Hmm!"

Denisha seemed to realize how ashamed she was of what she had written, and silently stepped aside with a red face.

"That old man happens to be upstairs today, you can go up and find him yourself." Cheryl immediately stood in front of Denisha and said.

Under her guidance, Qiao Xiu led Qiao Xiu to the Mage Tower of the Gray Cloak.

After spending more than ten minutes greeting the countless owls perched in the mage tower, Qiao Xiu finally came to the top of the tower.

A powerful magical barrier was set up on the top of the Mage Tower of the Gray Cloak, but Qiao Xiu, as a guest, easily walked into it.

"I heard from the Man in Yellow that the City of the High Elves is about to fall?"

The Grey Man had a heavy book in his hand, and it was rare that he hadn't gone to the Hearthstone Tavern to play Go today.

"Arthur Crowe? The situation over there is stable for now, at least the fall is impossible. Qiao Xiu said.

"The Elven Clan's World Tree is the lifeblood of this world, is there anything I can do to help?"

"Uh... Let those High Elves let go of their prejudices against humans? All right... I'm here to ask one thing. ”

Qiao Xiu took out a piece of drawing paper, and what was drawn on the drawing paper was the little girl's arm, and Qiao Xiu wrote down the strange symbols on her arm directly.

"The Grayman, do you have any impression of these symbols?"

Qiao Xiu asked the High Elves about the World Tree before coming, and it directly confessed that it was "very familiar, but there is no relevant memory".

In desperation, Qiao Xiu could only come to these sages for help.

"This is ......"

The man in gray took the drawing paper that Qiao Xiu was holding, and then went to the bookshelf and pulled out a heavy ancient book and opened one of the pages.

The book was spread out on the desk by the man in gray, and Qiao Xiu walked up directly to look at the content on it, although the text on it was very similar to English, but there were some differences.

It is a manuscript with dense text all handwritten.

"What is this?"

"Books found in the underground ruins of Nolan."

The man in gray took the drawing paper in Qiao Xiu's hand and compared it with some of the patterns recorded in the book.

"How do I feel like a manufacturing drawing of something?"

Ciri didn't understand it at all, but there were some things that could be understood just by looking at the drawings.

"It's written... It is a method of making magic dolls. The man in gray said.

"Wizard puppet?"

Qiao Xiu sounded the little girl's distorted tone again, and it didn't look like a human voice should come from it.

"I have only partially analyzed the content of this book, and the author's preface is 'the only way to save yourself in the end times'."

"I feel like it's getting more informative again."

Qiao Xiu flipped through the book, the book was obviously not finished, and after halfway through the writing, the words written by the writer became more and more distorted, and finally he couldn't even read the content clearly, and on the last page... A whole page was written in a huge font.

There is a sense of poignancy and despair in this line of writing.

"What does that mean?" Qiao Xiu looked at the gray-clothed man and asked.

"'We failed.'"

The man in gray gave Qiao Xiu an answer.

"Failed... Let's put this somewhat informative topic aside for a moment. ”

Jo Xiu wasn't here to get a 'clue to save the world', Jo Xiu was here to see if the horror movie was useful for banishing the little girl.

"Do you know the place where the consciousness of all living beings in the world is gathered?"

When Qiao Xiu said the word, the gray-clothed man's expression became solemn, and it seemed that the sage had also heard of that strange place.
