......
Looking at it one by one, the things in the intermediate mall are obviously more than a star and a half higher than the grade of the junior mall!
Strange journeys are coming—— although it's of little use.
But the smelting formula is simply a gift from heaven in this era of underdeveloped metallurgical ......technology! Which one doesn't need it?
And those two skills, as well as the Constitution Potion...... I want it all!
Horn glanced at his Apocalypse Coin balance:
——40!
Horn was hit in an instant, and she said angrily: "So this is put out to make people greedy?!"
"You could choose the one-wheel, so you don't have 2040 Apocalypse Coins, right?"
"I've never seen such a stingy dog system!"
7:“......”
Horn had never hated the rich so much, and poverty blinded her, so she grabbed 7's black robe, put the dagger directly on the black robe, and threatened: "Give me money!
7 let her stick to it, and didn't hide, and said lightly: "Can you not do such a stupid thing?"
"We're bound, I'm dead, and you can't live. ”
"And ...... The host can never kill the guide. ”
Horn removed the dagger in hatred.7 There was no need to lie to her, that was for sure.
Ahh
Otherwise—
Hard can't try soft?
Thinking of this, Horn immediately changed her face, she gently smoothed out the wrinkles in her black robe, and said with a smile: "Good brother, can you reward me with some Apocalypse Coins?"
7:“......”
"You're shameless. ”
- Horn's voice suddenly sounded in his heart.
On the outside world, if Horn's atrium doesn't close, 7 can know what she's thinking.
In the same way, 7 is the same.
"You're so despised that you don't bother to say it?!"
7 said lightly: "It's good that you know." ”
Horn really, really can't do anything about him.
This feeling of being uncontrollable is terrible!
Horn glanced down one by one, and suddenly caught a glimpse of the light of loyalty.
She was a little stunned for a moment, and she didn't think that she couldn't afford it at all.
"7! If I were to buy the Light of Loyalty to control Austin, that would be a bet ...... Didn't you just lose?"
"Yes. ”
"Did you know that there is this thing in the Intermediate Mall?"
"Hmm. ”
Horn felt like he was asking nonsense, 7 had mentioned that the high-level mall had something about his identity before, and he definitely knew what the mid-level mall had.
That...... Is this a deliberate attempt to lose?
7 As if he knew what she was thinking, he said: "Don't think about it, you didn't know what the intermediate mall had at that time, and you also had the risk of losing, and the bet was based on equal conditions." ”
"Now that you've accepted the bet and successfully opened the Intermediate Mall, you can only say that you're lucky. ”
All right...... It's true that she thinks too much.
Horn put away the mall panel and said slowly, "7, I won't use the light of loyalty on Austin. ”
7 was a little surprised: "Oh?"
In his eyes, Horn will do whatever it takes to achieve his goal, he can do anything, and he doesn't need such a quick way to win?
When you become an empress, you will become a righteous gentleman?
Horn was speechless......
She had a headache and said, "7...... Have you forgotten to care?" though he was telling the truth.
7:“......”
- immediately put away his thoughts.
Horn tried to listen again, but couldn't.
Horn wanted to slap himself...... Why remind him?!
7 Standing quietly beside it, the candle in the empty ball hall burned its last drop of beeswax, and only a little moonlight shone gently through the window.
The delicate red carpet reflected the shadow of Horn alone, with nothing under the feet of 7.
Looking up again, under the faint moonlight, the black robe shrouded his body, and Horn keenly noticed that 7's shoulders were shaking slightly.
- he was snickering.
A thought arose in my mind, and in an instant it was out of control.
Horn was amazed, "7! You're laughing, you're happy, you're ......! Are you really emotional?!"
Hearing this, 7's shoulders immediately stopped shaking, and he resumed his faint tone: "It's not important. ”
Where would Horn let go of this opportunity, she quickly grabbed 7's black robe and asserted: "7, you are definitely not an artificial intelligence. ”
7 Seeing that she began to pull at his black robe, he wanted to dodge, but Horn despicably tied the tie of the collar of the black robe directly to the injured right ear.
If you pull it, the wound that has finally scabbed will definitely be torn, and the bloody scene of open skin and flesh will be reproduced.
7 froze, but in the end he didn't move.
He sighed and said, "You...... It really doesn't matter what I am. All you need to know is that I'm your dedicated system facilitator. ”
In the huge ball hall, the flowers were still not withered, and the moonlight covered everything in the world with a soft light. In the center of the empty dance hall, the girl had a black belt on her ear, and she was extremely close to the black-robed smiling face in front of her, this scene ...... Weird and slender.
It is as if the inextricable links are all condensed into a black belt.
"Nope. ”
Horn denied, recalling very firmly, "7, when I first bought the barbed dagger, although your hands were always covered by the sleeves of your black robe, ...... On the handle of the dagger, there are fingerprints. ”
"You hate daytime, and if you show up too long during the day, you'll need to recuperate...... You won't show up for a few days, and even if you do, you'll just explain the necessary features and disappear right away. ”
"You...... And laughs. I caught you laughing for the first time today...... Would you like to laugh again?...... Just through the mask. ”
Horn tapped her finger to the corner of the mask's smiling mouth, and she opened her heart, her heart exploding with curiosity.
7 felt it.
A pale and slender hand stretched out from the black robe, and he grabbed Horn's hand to prevent her from continuing to mess around on the mask, and said, "You are really careful. ”
Horn stared at the mask's eyes and asked, "Am I right?"
7's hands were cold, not at all like human temperature.
Horn had touched countless corpses that had been dead for a long time—dead people without him.
...... "Yes." ”
As the 7 voice fell, the system prompt sounded:
[Ding——! Mission: "Exploration", current progress: 7%. Please enjoy and wish you success!]
+3%!
Horn smiled contentedly.
With some skill, she grabbed 7's hand, held the cold hand with her warm palm, and said, "Why is it so cold?" 7...... What species are you?"
Seven's hand was warmly gripped, a sensation he had never felt before, and he tried to pull his hand, but Horn held it tightly.
"Let go. ”
"Nonsense. ”
Horn covered his other hand as well, both hands gripping tightly.
7:“......”
In the faint moonlight, Horn forcibly raised 7's hand and looked at it carefully in the not-so-bright light.
Incomparably slender fingers—five, of course, not that long.
The nails weren't long, they were round on the fingers—not some clawed beast.
The skin was pale, and even pale cyan veins could be seen - no animal hair had grown.
Horn's brain twitched, and he quickly bit it.
7:“?!!”
Horn: "!!"
"Ah——!!!h
The moment she bit it, Horn froze, and the sharp pain in her teeth made her immediately say, "Are you made of iron?!!?"
7. I can't bear it: "You are enough!"
The remaining warmth of his lips on his skin and the temperature of the other man's palm even made him feel a burning sensation.7 He reached out his other hand to untie the black belt tied to Horn's right ear, just wanting to get away from her as soon as possible.
Horn quickly grabbed the hand and asked, "7, what species are you?"
The black belt was not untied, both hands were controlled, and 7 said helplessly: "Let go." ”
"No, if you don't say it, we'll stand all night! until daytime, though the maid who gets up in the morning will think I'm a psycho when she sees me, but ...... 7. Don't you hate daylight......? Will you die?"
"Don't make a fuss. ”
7's tone became serious, he didn't want to continue playing with Horn.
Horn was not afraid of offending him, she smiled evilly and said, "Don't make trouble, I'll let you go after you finish speaking." And I'm not going to put the light of loyalty on Austin. Because, I always believe in myself. ”
7: "Since you have this sincerity, then I believe in you very much." You let go now, and I'll send you something. ”
Sending something?
Horn grabbed tighter, and said with some expectation: "Good brother, do you want to reward me with Apocalypse Coins?"
7: "I'll give you a beauty mirror." ”
"What is the beauty mirror for?"
Horn saw it in the intermediate mall, a broken mirror costs 800 Apocalypse Coins, and he doesn't know what special features he has.
"If you take a picture every day, you can be beautiful. ”
"Hahahaha!"
Horn laughed straight out loud.
7 thought she didn't believe it, and said, "It really can." ”
Horn's face collapsed directly: "Waste." ”
7:“......”
Who said that it is a woman's nature to love beauty?!
How could she not have the slightest intention of being moved!
Horn's face was gloomy, and his face was full of determination to stand until dawn.
70,000 said helplessly: "Okay." As a reward for discovering that I am not an artificial intelligence, I am giving you a privilege in my personal name. ”
Horn was not very interested and said, "Huh?"
- "Part-time: Dwarven mining. ”
