"Is this the meeting that was meant to be?"

While whispering to himself, Abner had quietly taken out the puppet from his shirt pocket and prepared for battle.

The "Lieutenant General of the Iceberg" beside him also held an oil lamp in his hand, and Abner glanced at it and immediately recognized that it was the magical item "Silent Winter" that Adevina had bought for 4,200 pounds at the Pirate Conference.

This item can cause light-lit creatures to freeze their hands and feet and limbs until they freeze completely, and without the appropriate means of restraint, even demigods will be affected.

To the surprise of Abner and Adwina, the lion in the reflection of the stream jumped out and jumped into reality, and then emitted a warm glow like the "sun" on his body, and on all fours, although it was not very coordinated, it was definitely not slow to run to a position five meters away.

Just when Abner subconsciously wanted to simulate the speed of the "living corpse" to pursue, the male lion suddenly said: "Stop! Why do you humans always like to fight and kill, and is there anything you can't sit down to eat and talk about? ”

Eating and chatting? You lion is very elegant...... I just don't know if you will eat me or I will eat you......

Abner complained in his heart, then exchanged a look with Adewina, and was about to step forward again.

This time, however, instead of showing hostility, he spread out his hands to indicate that there was no weapon in his hand.

Seeing this, the lion took a step back, but fell because his hind legs were not coordinated, but this did not affect his movements away from Abner.

"Stop, don't come any closer!" The lion simply squirmed as he leaned over and cried.

"Didn't you propose to talk while eating? How can you talk while eating without getting close? Abner stopped, his face innocent.

"Boy, either you put that thing in your pocket away, or you keep me five meters away...... I'm older than both of you combined, and this little trick won't work for me! As the lion spoke, there was a hint of cunning and contempt on his face.

"You know?" Abner was really surprised this time, and since it was exposed, he thought about it, and simply covered the puppet's eyes with a handkerchief.

Then he looked intently at the lion in front of him and noticed its size. The appearance is no different from that of a normal lion, but the whole body is snow-white, and the mane is of various colors, which is a little strange.

Moreover, its head is particularly large, somewhat disproportionate to its body.

This appearance is similar to the "Phinx Lion" he knew in books.

"Of course I do! Boy, you know 'Polymath', right? The extraordinary person of this sequence has an ability called 'parsing', which can see the strengths and weaknesses of other people's abilities...... I can see at a glance the range of your puppet's ability to manipulate the spirit thread......" At this point, the lion snorted triumphantly, looked at Edwina not far away, raised his neck and said, "The 'oil lamp' in the little girl's hand is also restrained. ”

This tone, this demeanor, this is showing off, right? It's worthy of the material of the "Secret Master"...... However, its "analysis" level does not seem to be low, and it may be able to simulate and target many paths, which is not easy to deal with......

Abner sighed twice, but quickly thought of a countermeasure.

"You two are good, you didn't shout and kill when you met like the people who woke me up before, and you didn't even give me a chance to speak...... You know, I've been trapped here by that bastard for more than a hundred years, and I don't even have anyone to talk to, but I'm so aggrieved......" The lion didn't care about Abner's thoughts, and said to himself, but halfway through the conversation,

It suddenly let out a soft "huh" and showed a surprised expression, "You guys...... Are you all middle-sequence extraordinaries of the 'reader' pathway? ”

This sentence interrupted Abner's train of thought, and he exchanged glances with Edwina again, and asked cautiously, "How do you know?" ”

"You don't know about 'Erudito Communication', do you? In the past hundred years, I have improved a new secret technique on the basis of this technique, which is specially used to find out if there are 'polymato' in the vicinity! The lion seemed to be very familiar with it, and explained almost with all the answers.

The corners of Adewina's mouth moved, and there was a strong sense of curiosity in her light blue eyes, which were as clear as spring water, as if she wanted to ask about the principle of this secret technique.

However, she also knew that now was not a good time to ask, and she didn't take action after all, but her "hostility" towards the lion had also decreased a lot, and she was no longer ready to do it at any time.

"How did you come up with the idea of making such a ...... An alternative mystic? Abner asked, with a strange look on his face. At this time, he didn't have the intention to do it immediately, and he felt that he might be able to dig out something great from the lion's mouth.

And looking at it, it seems to have been held back for a long time, and there is a desire to talk.

"Of course......, it's to get out of trouble," the lion said this, and suddenly forcibly held back the words that continued to spit out, revealing a very vivid "honest" smile, and instead asked: "I am a 'Finkx' lion, do you know what 'Finks' means?" ”

"The word 'finx' comes from the ancient Phrsak language and means 'to spread secret knowledge.'" Adevina replied without thinking.

Although Abner knew the meaning of the name, since the "Lieutenant General of the Iceberg" as a companion had spoken, he simply did not speak, and only stared at the lion's reaction.

"That's right, similar to the 'Reader' sequence 5 'Mystic Mentor''s 'Collect Mystic, Create Mysteries, Teach Mysteries, and Make Secrets Not Secrets in the End', I, as a 'Phink Lion', have always had a rule, that is, I will ask the people I meet for a secret, and if you can answer it, I will give you the reward you want!"

At this point, the lion squeezed his eyes at Abner "obscenely", and continued seductively, "Even if you want my brain, I will give it to you." ”

This...... How do you feel like this lion is more like inducing me to ask for its brain? It can't be some trap, right? Moreover, the playing principle of the "Mystic Master" turned out to be "collect the Mystic, create the Mystic, and teach the Mystic, so that the Mystics are not secrets in the end"? casually speaking such important knowledge, this lion deserves the name of "Finks".

Thinking so, Abner glanced at Edvina who walked up to him, who guessed what he meant, nodded slightly, and signaled that there was no problem with the lion's "secret master" playing the law.

"But if you take off your brain, won't you die? I don't believe you'd sacrifice yourself to reward others. Abner pondered for a moment, deliberately showing a distrustful attitude, trying to deceive the other party.

"If I only had one brain, I wouldn't give it to you, but the extra brain would be a burden! That bastard didn't know what to feed me, so I had to grow an extra brain to make my head so big! Moreover, he also made a 'rule' for me, so that I can't take it out or expel it by myself......" The lion was a little anxious when he heard this, and quickly explained a few words, but it quickly came to his senses and forcibly changed the topic, "Hey, since I have an extra brain, not only is it difficult to control my emotions, but I will even stumble on myself when I run!" ”

"I see, someone has 'imprisoned' you in this valley and has given you many rules...... These rules must be lifted by 'Erudito'...... Am I right? Abner said with a blank face.
