Chapter 872: White Deer Dream
"Rest! This is not something we can meddle in. Leo did not let the topic of the composition of the world continue, because judging from the situation of the past two days, in the end, such topics became a quarrel between the two without exception, and neither could convince anyone.
Sylvia and Tessa Mocha were also aware of the arguments surrounding the topic, and no one could convince anyone, so they both followed Leo's suggestion, and each found a warm place to lie down next to the fire, adjusted their emotions and mood, and soon fell into a deep sleep.
The two of them taught Leo this method of adjusting their sleep, which is mainly the sleep method used by ordinary soldiers of the Earth Federation on the front line of the battlefield, in the case of insufficient supply of sleep potions on the frontline battlefield, ordinary people will use this method to enter a deep sleep and restore their energy, otherwise the high pressure on the cosmic battlefield is enough to drive any ordinary person crazy.
At that time, Leo was a cyborg and didn't need to use this kind of sleep method, but after staying with ordinary soldiers for a long time, he naturally learned this method, and now he can use it.
Like now, even if he and Sylvia don't need to rest because of physical fitness and other reasons, they can still adjust their sleep through this method, and this method also has the advantage that it will not affect their alertness to the outside, as long as there is a slight movement outside, they can quickly get out of the state of deep sleep.
Leo went to sleep in the same way, but before falling asleep, he carefully placed a few rune traps around the house to avoid any accidents.
I don't know how long I slept, but a flash of light in front of him woke him up from his sleep, and he instinctively quickly got up from the ground, and the whole person adjusted to a defensive state.
However, what he saw in front of him couldn't help but be stunned, because he found that he was no longer in the house of the White Deer Tribe Ruins, but next to a lake surrounded by forests, and the surrounding climate was not the extremely cold ice and snow, but seemed to be in the warm south.
However, compared to the surrounding climate, the lake in front of him is more eye-catching, because at this moment, bursts of light are emanating from the lake, and even if Leo does not turn on his vision, he can feel the energy contained in these lights by perception alone, which is definitely similar to the core of an asteroid.
After Leo showed a little surprise and confusion in his eyes at the abnormal situation in front of him, he suddenly seemed to think of something, looked around, and said loudly: "Since you brought me here, but you are hiding, are you idle and bored, and want to play games with me?"
"I'm not as laid-back as you are. After Leo's words fell, another voice sounded in the forest, and then the trees not far away from him moved and tilted to the sides as if they had turned into some kind of mollusk, forming a tree-shaped passage with the other trees behind him, and the white deer stepped on the ground made of vine trunks and walked to Leo.
"I didn't expect your strength to increase so much in such a short period of time," Bailu looked at Leo, as if he had seen through Leo's body, and said: "To be honest, I am also surprised now, you have found the right path and truly stepped into our world, I believe that with your situation, it will not take long to become one of us." With that, He paused again and said, "Of course, if you choose the wrong one, you can be one of those guys." ”
"Did you come to me for something?" Leo asked bluntly, ignoring what the other man said.
"It's nothing," Seeing that Leo didn't react as he envisioned, he couldn't help but be stunned, but quickly returned to normal, and shook his head: "I just found out that someone broke into my domain, so I was curious to take a look, I didn't expect to see you." ”
Although Bailu's tone was natural, Leo didn't have the slightest expression of belief on his face, and he didn't ask again, just stared at the other party.
"You're such a not very likable guy!" Bai Lu grinned, and then stopped talking nonsense, and went straight to the point: "I am looking for you in the hope that you can do me a favor." ”
Leo asked, "How can you help?"
Bailu said: "Go to the capital of the French Emperor Winter Rin City and help me steal something." ”
"Steal something?" asked Leo again.
"A ring. Bailu said in a deep voice.
Hearing Bailu's words, Leo was stunned, and then couldn't help but smile: "The ring you are talking about should not be the contract ring that the French royal family signed a contract with your Black Forest, right?"
Bailu didn't answer, but judging from his expression, he obviously acquiesced to Leo's guess.
"Would you please send me back?" Leo said without thinking.
Bailu ignored Leo's request, but continued: "Don't you want to hear the conditions I offer?"
"You don't need to listen to it, because there are no conditions that can send me to death. Leo said bluntly.
Bai Lu explained: "How can it be to send you to death, with your current strength, there are not many people in the world who can pose a threat to you, and the ring is not usually worn in the hands of the emperor, it will only be stored in the treasure house, you only need to go to the royal treasure house......"
Leo interrupted Bailu's words without hesitation and said, "You don't need to say it, I won't agree." ”
"No, you will agree!" Bai Lu did not persuade, but directly lured: "I allow you to enter my treasure house and choose one thing at will." ”
Leo smiled, not taking Bailu's words to heart.
Bai Lu didn't care about Leo's attitude at the moment, and continued: "In addition to the items that hide the mysteries of the gods, my treasure trove also has a lot of things that can help you increase your strength, and I also have a lot of books that record the mysteries of this world. With that, he lowered his head and leaned in front of Leo and said, "I still have a large number of items left behind by outsiders. ”
Hearing Bailu's words, Leo frowned slightly, although he had to say that he was indeed a little moved, but it was not enough.
Bai Lu made another condition: "This matter is just an entrustment, not a transaction that must be completed, even if you don't complete it, or even if you don't do it, it doesn't matter." ”
When Leo heard this, he had some thoughts, but he still had some doubts in his heart, so he asked: "Since that ring is so important to you, why don't you send someone else to get it, I believe that among the people you know, it is definitely more suitable than me." ”
"It's true that there are more suitable ones than you, and the success rate is far greater than yours, but the problem is that I don't believe them," Bailu said this, as if he remembered something, his face showed a disdainful expression similar to that of a human, and then turned to look at Leo again, and said, "I trust you more than those guys." ”
"Because I'm from Inge?" asked Leo.
"No, because you're an outsider. Bailu said bluntly.
Leo knows very well that the outsider in Bailu's mouth has two meanings, one is that he does not have any interests with the French royal family, and the other is likely to say that he has another identity.
Leo thought for a moment, and asked with some curiosity: "I remember that the ring was a contract between your Black Forest and the French royal family, and now it seems that you don't plan to follow the contract anymore, is it because the French Empire has declined?"
"Of course not. Bailu shook his head and said: "When the contract was made, the royal family of France did not exist, and the person who made the contract was just an ordinary primitive person, as long as we are willing, even if that person has nothing, we can make him the most noble person in the world." ”
"So the decline of the Franco-Empire is not the reason why you intend to break the contract. Leo took the other party's words, thought for a while, and then looked at Bailu and said, "Is it because of the changes in the world?"
Bai Lu didn't answer this time, but said as if changing the topic: "I'll take you to the treasure house to choose things first, so that you can have a bottom in your heart, so that you don't worry about me replacing the things in the treasure house." ”
"I didn't think so......" Leo was about to retort to Bailu's words, but quickly closed his mouth and looked around.
I saw that the original scenery of the lake and forest had turned into a huge palace in an instant just now, this palace was a hundred meters high, and the stone pillars that supported the roof around it were criss-crossed, and there were hundreds of them, each of which was so thick that it took six or seven people to be able to hold it smoothly, and at the end of the palace was a huge golden gate, and bursts of light shone out from the gate, and the metal surface at the top of the palace was like a mirror repeatedly refracted to illuminate the entire palace.
In this palace, not only Bailu and Leo, but also a large group of half-human and half-deer strange creatures live here, these deer people are deer on the lower body, the upper body is human, and there is a pair of antlers on the top of their heads, and none of these deer people are male, all of them are female deer people, if you don't look at the lower body and the pair of horns, the appearance of these deer people is definitely the top beauty in the world of Velon.
The appearance of the white deer in the palace immediately attracted the attention of these deer people, they all stood up from the ground, quickly gathered over, saluted the white deer respectfully, and then looked down at Leo with curiosity.
All of them were very tall, more than three meters, some were even four meters tall, and if you count the antlers, they were all more than four meters, and they were all naked, without the slightest embarrassment or shame for being naked in front of a male.
"Lord, is this a human?
When Leo heard the deerman's words, he couldn't help frowning, turned his head to look at the deerman, and then shifted his gaze to the patterns on the antlers, and quickly remembered the shape and changes of these patterns in his heart.
"Yes, he is human, and he is my guest. White Deer seemed to enjoy Leo being watched by the deermen, which may be the reason why he brought Leo here instead of taking him directly to the treasury, but he regretted that Leo did not show any embarrassed expressions, but looked at his relatives with a research eye, as if he wanted to dismantle the deermen, as some scholars in his memory.
"Get out of the way! there's nothing to see. After seeing Leo's performance, Bai Luton felt bored, and after shouting at the deer people around him, he ordered the deer man with the biggest antlers on his head, "Now take us to the treasure house." ”
"Yes, Lord!" the deer man replied as he withdrew his gaze from Leo, and then strode towards the gate at the end of the palace ahead, where the white deer followed, and motioned for Leo to follow.
Leo was about to follow, but something suddenly occurred to him and he looked behind him.
His gaze passed through the entrance of the palace behind him, and saw the scene outside the palace, only to see that the palace seemed to be in the air, and a large number of clouds could be seen around it, and then a huge shadow flashed in the clouds.
Leo, who saw the shape of the shadow clearly, couldn't help but be stunned, and quickly realized that the palace he was in now was probably in the castle above the head of the golden deer, or in the building that looked like a castle, because the huge shadow just now was a golden antler.
Leo quickly controlled his emotions, regained his composure, didn't pay attention to the affairs outside the palace, and quickly followed Bailu.
Leo's actions naturally couldn't escape the perception of the white deer, he also felt Leo's shock, and the deer also showed a smug smile on his face, as if he was very satisfied with Leo's performance.
However, when Leo caught up, he put away his smile and returned to his solemn form.
Soon they came to the gate at the end of the palace, and the deer man stepped forward and stood at the gate, and pressed his antlers against a pattern in the gate, and made a sound that could not be made by a human throat, and then her antlers burst into a burst of light, which would echo the light of the gate, and disappeared at the same time, along with the glowing gate.
After the gate disappeared, the scene behind the gate also came into Leo's eyes, although Leo's eyes were already mentally prepared, but seeing the scene in front of him still made him take a deep breath.
I saw that the palace behind the door was very simple, there were no other items and decorations, only crystal shelves, lined up in turn, advancing inside, and finally gathering a little in the sight, and the end was not visible at all with Leo's current eyesight.
Each of these crystal shelves is divided into thirty layers, thirty grids, and each compartment contains an item, some of which are wrapped in completely transparent crystals on the outside, and some of which are placed naked on the shelf without any protection.
"Now you can pick and choose. Bailu turned his head and said to Leo, "Pick the one you want." ”
"Isn't there a catalog?" asked Leo.
"Nope. With a hint of a teasing smile, Bailu said: "I don't know how many things are stored in the treasure house, let alone the origin and purpose of these things, so it's useless to ask me, even if I help you choose, you can only try your luck." ”
Leo didn't say anything more, he knew very well that Bailu just wanted to see his jokes, so he didn't talk nonsense, and walked directly into this treasure house, and then released the spirit net, enveloping the entire treasure house, walking forward like a leisurely stroll, and at the same time through the spirit network and brain, quickly analyzing all the perceived items.
