794 to get started
Faced with the escape of the No. 1 machine, Merlin did not choose to pursue.
At this time, he was in a very mysterious realm, obviously not reaching the golden position, but he realized it...... Law.
That's right! Exactly the law!
Hidden in the void, only the golden seed can perceive and communicate the law!
And in the world of the Void, even if the silver species used the best secret techniques, they would not be able to feel the law.
But Merlin did feel it!
His strong physique allowed him to realize the existence of the law before he reached the realm of the immortals.
Red flames, blue water, dark death, emerald life......
There are also many laws that Merlin can't name, and they, or rather, their projections, simply appear in front of Merlin, and then disintegrate into photons and merge into his body.
Merlin has become stronger! He's getting stronger at a speed that no one else can imagine!
It's just that...... Unlike the immortals who normally walked on the golden path, the laws that Merlin absorbed did not converge in his body.
These laws, like naughty children, did not listen to Merlin's wisdom at all, and they jumped and jumped, through the skin, through the cells, and wrapped up the filth that could not be squeezed out by the spiritual power, and then, as they had come in, hurried back to heaven and earth.
The energy left by the law is many times higher than the spiritual power, and these energies nourish every cell in Merlin's body. And those impurities in the cell, the space they originally occupied, are also released because of the disappearance of impurities.
As soon as you go in and out, the energy that can be contained in the cell suddenly increases!
Every breath of Merlin. Every time his heart beats. It's as if these energies are being driven. With the operation of these energies, he had already reached the physique of the golden seed, and he was moving towards a new level!
Perfect Physique...... Physical detachment...... Body......
Merlin didn't know where he was now, every movement of his body seemed to reflect the space around him, his eyes closed, his ears covered, and even his heart closed. But even so, Merlin could still feel the annex, or rather a qiฤ of this different space.
"Hoo ......"
When he opened his eyes, a silver light flashed in his eyes.
His gaze went straight through the space, and he saw the No. 1 machine hiding in the storage room on the second floor, and he also saw that the star and Lily who were observing him in the real world......
"We ...... Let's go back. โ
Turning his head, Merlin smiled and looked at Abbe and Nanaja. Having gained knowledge, he had already guessed what had happened. However, he had no intention of complaining. Hoshi and the unknown girl are also for his good, and. If there is really an accident, I believe they will not stand idly by.
Merlin has such confidence, and although he has only been with Xing for a short 'month', he thinks he will not be wrong.
"Aren't you going to chase that monster?"
Abbe and Nanajia naturally didn't know what Merlin was thinking, and when they heard his words at this moment, one had a puzzled face, as if they didn't understand what he meant.
"No, that guy, he won't be in front of us again." Merlin chuckled.
He looked in the direction of the second floor, just like this, the No. 1 machine hiding in the storage box, as if sensing something, shrunk and shivered.
"Then let's go!"
Abbe and Nanajia, after being chased by puppets and trapped in the illusion for a month, although they didn't say anything, they wanted to leave very much. And now, they finally heard the answer that they could leave safely, and even Abbe couldn't help but smile happily at this time. As for Nanajia, she jumped directly on Merlin with a smile......
But......
"Before I can do that, I need to pick up one more thing."
Merlin smiled and patted Nanaja's head and motioned for her to get off of her, and then, taking Abbe and her hands, led the two into the pit that had been knocked out by the One.
โฆโฆ Walking through the pit, a hidden room appeared in front of the three of them.
The room had no windows, and there was no so-called door, and if it weren't for the fact that Unit 1 broke through the wall directly, Merlin wouldn't have noticed the room that was deliberately hidden by the star.
"This is it!"
Merlin had been fixing his gaze on a large cabinet in the center of the room since he entered the room.
This cabinet is the 'coffin' used to seal the body of the No. 1 machine, but it ...... Merlin prefers to call it another name, a ...... As long as it is a prop that the chef wants to obtain.
- Spirit Vault!
Like the Yongling Knife and the Jade Dragon Pot, it is a legendary kitchenware that can preserve the freshness of the ingredients!
It's just that in this time and space where the refrigerator has been invented in advance, the spiritual storage library has completely lost its role as a kitchenware.
There are even quite a few special chefs who have removed the Lingzang from the legendary kitchenware...... Of course, in the face of such a mention, the leaders of the culinary world have never nodded their heads.
What are you kidding, those who know nothing about it, those who really know the legendary kitchenware know that only by combining eight pieces of kitchenware can they play a real role!
It is not to dominate the world, nor to control the people, but to ......
"I didn't expect it...... What we're looking for is here. Looking at the large cabinet in the middle of the room, Abbe couldn't help but sigh.
"Yes, no wonder, the most powerful chef in the past only collected seven pieces of kitchen utensils, and the last one in the spirit storehouse, no matter how you look for it, you can't find it."
Merlin nodded, in the month before his departure, in addition to practicing with the stars, he spent most of his time flipping through ancient books about legendary kitchenware.
Therefore, unlike Xiao Gang, who got the wrong information, Merlin was able to judge the general direction of the legendary kitchenware that appeared today.
It's just that...... Merlin would never have imagined that the vault, which he judged to be the most difficult to obtain, would be the first kitchen utensils to be found, even though the process was definitely beyond the reach of a chef.
Merlin ...... Are you in ...... Looking for legendary kitchenware? "It's different from Merlin and Abbe's joy. Nanajia. When it comes to hearing that Merlin is looking for legendary kitchenware. But he showed a surprised look. Her hand casually crossed her side waist, where the Eternal Spirit Knife, one of the Eight Legendary Kitchen Utensils, was lying quietly in the box.
"Huh? Didn't we tell you about it? Abbe tilted her head, she remembered that she should have talked to Nanaga about it in the past, "The reason why Merlin and I embarked on a journey around the country was to find the legendary kitchen utensils." โ
"Yes...... That's right. โ
The smile on Nanajia's face that she could still hold slowly disappeared, and her expression began to become hesitant. She and Abbe have reached a common covenant of advance and retreat. It didn't matter if I didn't know before, but now, after understanding that Merlin and Abbe were looking for the legendary kitchenware, they should have handed over the Eternal Spirit Knife beside them.
But...... Once you collect all the legendary kitchen utensils, the demon star will be born!
Although Nana Jia usually stays a little natural, she is essentially a kind child, otherwise, the task that should have been carried out by her sister Xingjia Xiaotori herself would not have been handed over to her to complete...... Well, at that time, Nana Jia did have the intention of playing......
But anyway. Nana Jia really doesn't want the demon star to be born, the big demon king who destroys the miรจ world or something. It's okay to complain about it, but if it really appears, it will be a terrible thing for the whole world.
As for how terrifying it is, please refer to the 'Demon War' a thousand years ago, when the whole world was destroyed for a time!
If it weren't for the heavenly man...... Kindness? Wait a minute! Heavenly Man?!
Nanajia's hesitant expression suddenly changed, and she looked at Merlin on the side.
In the illusion, Abbe once told Nanajia about his guess, Merlin, is the heavenly man thousands of years ago!
If that's really the case......
Nanajia's expression slowly firmed, and the hand on the Eternal Spirit Knife box stopped moving.
"Merlin, I have something for you."
Nanajia, who has already decided something, seems to have completely forgotten her duties as a star witch. She removed the box from her waist and handed it to Merlin.
"Huh? Isn't this the box you put your kitchen knife in? โ
What was in the box on Nanajia's waist, Merlin and Abbe naturally knew. Just, what does it mean to hand over a kitchen knife to yourself?
Merlin was puzzled, and though he was puzzled, in the end, he took the box.
"Open the box, hold the kitchen knife, and you'll understand."
Nana smiled lightly, and after Merlin took the box, the stone that pressed on her heart seemed to disappear.
And Merlin ......
Although he didn't understand what medicine was sold in Nanajia's gourd, he still opened the box as he said.
In the box, there is a fairly sharp kitchen knife, the overall kitchen knife is silver-gray, and it looks like it is some years old.
Originally, Merlin thought that this kitchen knife was handed down by Nanajia's parents, but now it seems that this is not the case.
Merlin thought as he reached out and grabbed the kitchen knife.
This was Merlin's first grip on the kitchen knife used by Nanajia, but for some reason, his fingers fit perfectly on the handle of the knife.
The indentations that came and went at that time seemed to have been designed for him from the beginning!
"Lift it up." Nana Jia said on the side, "This box has been sealed, and any object stored in it will lose its original function. โ
"Oh."
Merlin nodded, he seemed to understand something, and without hesitation, he directly pulled the kitchen knife out of the box.
Next second!
The golden light is in full bloom! The phantom of a giant dragon rushed out of the kitchen knife!
It was an oriental dragon covered in golden scales, full of majesty and an unknown divine aura.
When he saw this dragon phantom, Merlin's heart actually felt a little nostalgic.
He'd seen this golden dragon, no! This golden dragon has a closer relationship with him!
The dragon phantom didn't last long, but in four or five seconds, it rushed into the kitchen knife again, just like when it appeared.
It's just that, looking at the kitchen knife now, where is there any quaint taste, the handle like cyan dragon scales, and the blade glowing with azure sharpness. And the tattoo of the golden dragon.
This...... It is the legendary 'Tyrannosaurus pattern' that only has kitchenware!
Other words......
Merlin looked at Nanaja. Waiting for her explanation.
"This is the Eternal Spirit Knife. Merlin is one of the legendary kitchenware you are looking for. "It's the first time I've seen such a scene, and she'd never seen such a scene when she used the Eternal Spirit Knife before.
"That's right."
Merlin nodded, he didn't ask Nanaja why she had this kitchenware. As a Xingjia witch, she appeared in Huaxia, and naturally had the shadow of Xingjia Shrine behind her, and it was impossible for Xing not to know about this kind of thing.
I'll go out and ask about the stars later.
Merlin who thinks so. Through time and space, I thought about the stars outside the annex.
And Xing, who seems to be a thief, is smirking awkwardly at the moment.
Wait for me, teacher......
Merlin withdrew his gaze, and then looked at the vault in the center of the room.
Unlike small kitchenware such as kitchen knives and pots, large kitchenware such as the Spirit Vault is impossible to carry with you. But. From the knowledge Merlin received from Evangeline, he learned a way to make a space prop.
Although the materials are very rare. But who let there happen to be a big man outside the annex?
With the arrival of the Eternal Spirit Knife, Merlin seems to have become a little darker......
"So, let's go."
Merlin took out the ancient mirror, with his current strength, it was not difficult to leave the annex, but there were two people by his side, Abbe and Nanajia, they were not like Merlin, they had terrifying bodies that could shuttle through spatial cracks without being crushed by space.
And Horus, or the number one pilot, although he deceived the three of them in other ways, only in the role of the ancient mirror did not lie a little.
As for the energy required for the activation of the ancient mirror, with today's Merlin, it is enough to provide it.
As Merlin injected spiritual power into the Ancient Mirror, an emerald green light began to shine on it, and this light enveloped the entire room, and it became brighter and brighter!
The originally weird and gloomy annex, under the light of the ancient mirror, has become holy and holy at this moment.
Of course, this illusion only lasted for a while, and when the emerald green light dissipated, the annex regained its terrifying appearance, and the three Merlins disappeared into the annex with the light.
โฆโฆ
A flash of light suddenly flashed, and in the next moment, Merlin, Abbe, and Nanajia reappeared on the top of the mountain where it was still raining.
They're back, they're back!
"Great! We're back! โ
"Well, Merlin, you're amazing!"
For the rest of his life, the joy in his heart is uncontrollable. Not to mention Nanajia, even Abbe, who is usually gentle, couldn't help jumping on Merlin's body at this time......
At this moment, she only had Merlin in her eyes, and she didn't care about the star who wanted to step forward to speak, she just leaned her face close to Merlin, and then, her lips were directly printed on the other party's face.
Her movements were so fast and swift that even Merlin, who was the person concerned, was stunned for several seconds before she fully reacted.
As for Nana Jia and the star ...... on the side
"Abbey, you are so cunning!"
Nana Jia said, leaving her own mark on the other side of Merlin.
"Soul light! Let go of that guy for me, he's an old lady's!!!!! โ
Xing rushed forward angrily, she vowed to 'rescue' her precious apprentice, as for whether to eat him or be eaten by him later, well, then think about it slowly.
It's a pity that Hoshi is just one person, and without using her own strength, she has no way to defeat the alliance of Abbe and Nanaja, and use her strength...... Well, the star himself can't lose this face.
At this time, the only thing that can be done is to pull people into the water.
Thinking like this, Xing couldn't help but turn his head to look behind him.
"Lily, you soulless! What are you doing there, your teacher is going to be arrested! โ
"Puff - I'm not going to join your war, don't try to drag me into the water."
Obviously, Lily didn't fall for the stars, she stood on the sidelines, and she didn't mean to meddle in it at all.
However, even so, her speech made the fighting Nana Jia stop moving.
"Uh...... Lily, you are too. โ
The gods she served were present, and as a shrine maiden, Nana Jia naturally didn't dare to make another mistake.
What's more, just now, she also violated Lily's commission and gave the eternal spirit knife she obtained to her sweetheart......
"Of course I'm here, otherwise, how could I see you giving away the Eternal Spirit Blade?"
Although Lily is just a Lori, she is full of majesty at the moment, and just an understatement of the answer made Nanajia's face sweat cold.
"Ahaha, I ......"
Nana Jia smirked awkwardly, she wanted to find a reason to prevaricate, but unfortunately, Merlin on the side snatched her words.
"If you want to use the Eternal Spirit Knife, I can return it to you now."
Merlin's tone was low, and his words were full of calmness. But it's such an answer, but Nanajia's heart is filled with happiness.
"Merlin~"
"Oh? Did she even give up the memories of the past for her? โ
Lily looked at the Eternal Spirit Knife that Merlin handed over and smiled coldly.
"No, I won't give up on memory. Eternal Spirit Sword, in the future, I can also go to Xingjia Shrine to borrow it in person, but now, if I can, I don't want Nana Jia to be punished. Merlin smiled faintly, he patted Nanajia's head dotingly, and then, he raised his head again, "And, listen to what Xing meant before, you should be my former student...... Students can't help but listen to the teacher's words, right? โ
Merlin's answer surprised everyone, they didn't expect that the casual words that Xing had said before would be used by Merlin as a weapon to prevent Nanaja from being punished.
It's really as bad as ever......
Looking at the smiling Merlin, Lily couldn't help but think to herself.
However, such a teacher is the teacher I know! (To be continued......)
