(Ask for a commuter pass!) Ask for a referral ticket! ）

It is worthy of a well-known high-end hotel in Milan, and although Violet roared without the image of a lady, the voice only echoed in the room, which made one wonder if she had quietly arranged the enchantment when she entered.

"It's time for me to ask a question, right?"

"Well, just ask, it's better to be the little things." Villette sneered, as if sarcastic about Ling Yi's previous choice.

"First of all, I want to know what a magician is?" Ling Yi ignored Willett's sarcasm and asked questions to himself.

"Magicians are the people who master the mysteries, have you ever heard of the aether theory?"

Wellett summarized it in a general way, and didn't get to the point at all, if it was an ordinary person who really didn't know anything, he would definitely be confused, but Ling Yi thought of a theory related to magic based on her words.

Of course, it is said to be magic, but it is the magic of the Moon World Realm, and it is not surprising that it is a different force system from the real world.

However, that theory is quite appropriate with Willett's description.

"Aetherism? Isn't that proven to be pseudoscience? ”

Ling Yi thought in his heart, but asked quietly on the surface.

"If it's pseudoscience, how do you explain energy technology?"

Wellett asked rhetorically.

Then he continued:

"The core theoretical basis of energy technology is the ether theory, which is why the semi-perpetual motion machine has been completely realized, and it is rumored that the most epoch-making significance in energy technology is the energy compression technology. This is pure nonsense, stupid conclusions that focus only on superficial results. What is really valuable is the 'method of maximizing the use of ether', in other words, the energy conversion technique. Magicians, on the other hand, are themselves 'ether conversion devices', and while they have extraordinary powers, they can also cause phenomena that even science cannot explain. ”

It can't be explained, that's why it's called 'mysterious'.

It is precisely because I don't understand, because I don't know, because I have mastered this power, and because I have stepped into this field. It's the magician.

Ling Yi felt a little conflicted in his heart. He felt that Villelet should have concealed some of the facts, and this logic seemed smooth on the surface, but when it came to the real calculation, there were still many doubts.

For example, the magician thinks what can be turned into an 'aether conversion device'. It's certainly not something innate. The first thing Violet said when she appeared was 'Magic is a miracle that can be learned'.

And also. How do magicians create phenomena that even science can't explain?

A lengthy arcane incantation? Or is it a false bloodline?

Ling Yike didn't believe this, although he had never been a staunch supporter of science, but he liked the rigor of science very much. Careful logic is not room for error, so that the outcome of one thing can be determined to the greatest extent.

If it's a real obsessive-compulsive disorder, then you must be able to understand his thoughts.

"Although I still don't understand it, according to the agreement, you can get a piece of information from me."

Ling Yi frowned slightly, as if he was still thinking about the meaning of Willett's words.

Seeing him so distressed, Willett was like drinking a cold drink in the summer, and the anger in her heart suddenly dissipated cleanly, and her face improved a lot.

Distress? The distress was right, because it was intentional on purpose.

Although the agreement is an exchange of information, there is no stipulation that complete information must be exchanged, and the other party does not know what to do anyway, so it doesn't matter if only part of the information is given.

With a happy mood, Willett cleared her throat and asked the question that had been hidden in her heart for a long time:

"How did you escape the Darkness of the Ambush technique?"

She still remembers that scene. Swallowed by Shogoth, obstructing everyone's sight, and even perceiving, the splashed red blood is impossible to fake, and the flesh is also broken under the gnawing of Shogues, and there is not even a little bit of debris left in the back, if there are hands and feet, it must have just been swallowed up.

"Oh, I have a special escape technique."

Ling Yi pondered for a while and replied solemnly.

But I thought to myself.

"That's not an answer."

The mood that had just recovered fell again.

Wellriet had the urge to leave in a fit of rage.

She can see that this guy is not sincere at all.

"Just kidding, I just used a little trick. In your words, it's magic, right? ”

Ling Yi showed an uncertain look, a typical layman's appearance.

"Magic?"

As soon as she heard the magic, Villerite immediately dispelled the urge to leave.

"Probably."

Ling Yi's eyes narrowed, and he said in a pretending reminiscing tone:

"—it's about summoning a monster."

"Séance? No way, how could ordinary séance make you slip out of the noses of so many people! And Liangyi told me, aren't you an alchemist? ”

Wellett was stunned for a moment, and immediately retorted.

"I'm not much of an alchemist, I just happened to learn how to control mercury, and it took me a while to get the hang of it. As for the summoning one, I also happened to learn it, and I was able to swap places with other creatures, which means that if there is a mouse at the door now, then when I summon the mouse, the mouse will appear in the room, and I will run to the door. ”

Ling Yi insisted that he had learned the technique by 'chance'.

Credibility or something, sometimes it just brings trouble to yourself.

In this kind of intelligence exchange, only those who have more intelligence resources can take the lead and deceive the other party as much as possible without violating the agreement, so as to create more 'suspicions', which is a self-preservation tactic to increase their bargaining chips.

For example, A has three questions for B, and B has only one question for A, so that the exchange of information can take place at most once. Even though A still had two questions to ask, B didn't do it because A didn't have the chips he wanted.

Now. Welllight and Ling Yi have such an unequal relationship.

When it comes to intelligence resources, Willett has an absolute advantage.

And Ling Yi only showed some mysterious means that attracted the attention of Willett.

If you want the transaction to go ahead, you must ensure a balance between the two sides, otherwise it will only be unilaterally exploited, used, and nothing more.

"-Okay."

Willett had to accept Ling Yi's explanation.

It's obviously very reasonable, but for some reason she always feels weird, and this sense of disparity that doesn't match expectations is tangled.

"If there is no problem. Can you please go back? Excuse me. I want to rest. ”

Ling Yi's sudden declaration made Wellett stunned, and she immediately reacted, frowning and asking:

"In order, you should be asking the question."

"This one. I don't have a problem anymore. Thank you very much for your patience. I have to say it was an eye-opener. ”

"Are you serious?"

"Yes, sorry for taking up your time."

Ling Yi said very politely.

Without a critical attitude, even Willett could not see through what he was thinking.

"That's right for me. I'm sorry for taking your time off, but if you need any help, please contact me, and I'll quit first. ”

Although Willett was very depressed, Ling Yi said that she was not leaving.

Then again. What Ling Yi was thinking, only he knew what he was thinking, and Willett would never guess what he was thinking.

There was still a slight scent wafting through the room.

It smells very pleasant, but it can't make people feel at ease.

"Intelligence? You can have as many things as you want, and there will never be only one person as the 'intelligence merchant'. ”

Ling Yi thought so.

That's what he's really for.

Villerite didn't understand him. He is the kind of genius who can follow the vine with the slightest clue and grasp the whole picture of events.

"Symposium on Academics? To go or not? ”

Ling Yi was a little hesitant.

Originally, it didn't matter if he went or not, reporting or something was a piece of complete cake for him. Speaking of which, a so-called report is just a collection of notes into an easy-to-understand paper, which can be completed in an hour or two at most. But if you don't go to the lecture on site, where do you get your notes?

However, the information that Wellett revealed just now made him curious about the magicians in this world, if he wanted to investigate, he would only have time tomorrow, and if he returned to China, he might be intercepted by the gray-robed man again.

Of course, no one would object to taking a few days off from school to stay abroad, especially Villelet and her own parents.

In Willett's view, Ling Yi is the unlucky ghost who has been implicated. Although he knows some magic, at best, he is barely protecting himself, and his understanding of the magic world is completely blank.

-- People are hard to dismantle.

Ling Yi took out clean clothes from the suitcase, planning to take a shower first, and changed the torn clothes by the way. Although he doesn't dress up much in the accident, the cutout on the back of the T-shirt is still noticeable, and it is the result of Shogues' claws.

Lying in the bathtub is always the most pleasant and shortest.

The time difference of six hours is so that it is now close to midnight.

Although Ling Yi really wanted to get some sleep first, his time was a little tight, tomorrow at noon was the academic seminar, and the time for free activities was strictly speaking, only half a day.

Quite a while? The investigation is completely insufficient, so I should ask for leave.

But don't get me wrong, Ling Yi didn't have the heart to be lazy.

Quite the opposite -

"System Elf, I want to apply for the 'Skill Enhancement' mission."

Ling Yi took the initiative to find the system after a long absence, generally speaking, unless there was something, he would not be idle and bored to chat with the system.

It's the same this time.

The so-called skill enhancement task, as the name suggests. The purpose of this quest is to increase the level of captured skills and improve the deficiencies in the host's own abilities.

"Please select any skill as the target for this mission."

The voice of the system elf is always so cold when the task is issued.

"I choose [Knight does not die in unarmed A+]."

"Content: Challenge Lancelot again. Are you sure? ”

"Sure."

Ling Yi replied immediately.

"The mission will start in a minute, please prepare the host in advance. System alerts. The scenario of this mission is not the trial world experienced by the host. There is no out-of-spec protection for this mission. The host is not allowed to use any technological weapons, otherwise it will be considered a failure. ”

Fail?

It's a good thing if there are failures.

blood, gradually warmed up

In Fuyuki City, the underground parking lot of the Civic Hall in Xindu is engaged in a confrontation that is difficult to describe in words.

In the basement, where the moonlight does not reach, the large parking lot, which is designed to accommodate more than 100 vehicles, has not yet been opened, only a few construction company vehicles are parked scattered, and the remaining empty space is precipitated with dusty air.

One of the seven major job agencies, known as the best job agencies, Saber, the heroic spirit of the sword, turned over and retreated sharply, and her position just now was already surrounded by raindrops of fire.

The smell of burning gunpowder is familiar......

"This weapon is—"

Saber was impressed. It was the mechanized shooting weapon that became mainstream in the modern world.

The depths of darkness bloomed once again with the flame of the Red Lotus. The figure of Berserker, the dark heroic spirit that had been ambushed for a long time, was very eye-catching in the light of the fire of the muzzle. Saber jumped to his feet without hesitation. Escape from the barrage.

A stray bullet with unimaginable destructive power. Break large holes in concrete floors and walls. That power is very different from the performance of the weapon in my impression. Saber immediately realized that even if she was a Heroic Spirit was hit, she would be injured, which made her grit her teeth unwillingly.

Of course, she could not have known how Berserker got the machine gun.

The Black Knight held in each hand a modern firearm that Yan Feng Qili had prepared with the help of the Overseer's authority. It is as flexible as an extension of his own arm. The body and magazine of modern firearms are soaked in magic. Become a 'Noble Phantasm' that can even threaten Saber.

Two machine guns let out a ferocious roar. A hail of bullets rained down on Saber. The supersonic bullets were not faster than Saber's, but the rate of fire of more than 20 rounds per second made her only able to parry.

Regardless of its origins and era, Berserker is able to give the power of the Noble Phantasm with the weapons in his hands. And once upgraded to the category of Noble Phantasm. With the destructive power of both swords and guns equal, Saber suddenly found himself in an overwhelming precarious situation.

Under the pressure of the rain of bullets, she could not get close to the Black Knight.

Still, Saber found a way to cope.

"-That's it!"

At the risk of possible defeat, Saber rushed towards the small truck around the corner.

Berserker chased frantically from behind, slashing with his machine gun while suppressing Saber's living space.

Luckily, Saber got around the back of the truck at the last minute and dodged the stray bullet. She picked up the truck with her sword, as easily as plastic.

The dense rain of bullets tore the truck apart directly. Using the truck as cover, Saber took the opportunity to rush towards Berserker.

Berserker continued to shoot, mercilessly smashing the truck body into iron filings with a machine gun. Even the heavy truck frame was quickly falling apart, but in Saber's opinion, a few seconds of time would be enough for the 'makeshift shield'.

Bullets swept through her cheeks and shoulders. A bullet sparked and hit the fuel tank, detonating the fuel inside. The body that was no longer in shape was on fire.

But even that didn't stop Saber's charge.

Less than ten meters away from the enemy, Saber saw the right moment and flapped the wreckage of the truck like a ball with the blade of his sword, just as it flew towards Berserker. The Black Knight was undaunted by the steel trash, which was larger than his own body, and swung his hand to smash it with a single punch.

- The time is ripe.

"Hah!"

With a high-pitched battle cry, Saber slammed in on the truck again, stabbing at the wreckage with all his might—the invisible sword pierced through the flaming iron that was a shield, and pierced Berserker with incredible speed.

Berserker was completely blind to Saber's small movements, so much so that he couldn't avoid them. It was only then that Saber finally hit the enemy with one blow, and it was the feeling of a stab.

But—

"-Tsk, that's too shallow."

Although Saber did hit the opponent with his instinctive thrust, he was not lucky enough to kill with one hit. Although the front end of the Wind King's enchantment accurately hit the center of the black helmet's eyebrows, it failed to shatter the skull inside.

The truck's body was rained down by bullets and the inside was pierced by a sword, and this time it finally split in two. Although Berserker was not mortally wounded, due to the sharp head stabbing, the strong impact was unavoidable, and he staggered back a few steps for a while, which was a good opportunity to take advantage of the victory.

Now the scales of victory are in favor of Saber.

Saber kicked away the burning wreckage of the vehicle and raised his sword aloft. Unleashing all her strength, this time she aimed at Berserker's unsuspecting head, staking victory on the next blow.

Posture, speed, timing are all perfect. It was a blow worthy of the Sword's Heroic Spirit, enough to reassure one that the victory was in place—and because of that, she looked so shocked when the sword was stopped.

The man who stood in her way was a young man who did not appear to be more than twenty years old.

Even now, the usual summer outfit seems a little too casual, and the combination of a T-shirt and jeans is obviously not suitable for combat, especially if you can easily put your hands in your pockets, which is more appropriate for passers-by.

And this figure, as if it was against reality, I don't know when Lu Dao appeared, in short, what is certain is that Saber's sword was blocked.

Yes, block.

The head-on blocked the sword that was almost certain to win.

It is made of a gold scabbard that looks like a handicraft.

The scabbard is decorated with a striking blue enamel on a golden metal, with a long-lost fairy script in the center. Its posture is like a phantom, unfathomable, untouchable, unapproachable, and everything, including the smoke-filled atmosphere, is blocked by the light that overflows from the scabbard itself.

No one knows this thing better than Saber.

The ideal place to get away from the world.

Alias, Avalon.

Just carrying it on the body can stop the user's body from aging, and at the same time give great immortality, even if it is a fatal injury, even if it is fatal.

When it comes to true liberation, no physical means can break it, including the Five Great Laws.

The strongest defense known in the world at the moment.

Being in the realm of the absolute, only young people can be heard - he complains:

"This guy is my prey, and if his host can't hold out until I win, then he'll be in trouble. So can I ask you to leave for a while, otherwise I can only help this guy and kill you first. After all, I still like the sword you have in your hand. (To be continued......)
