Chapter Twenty-Three: The Doll Tingge
Aaron never expected the puppet to say such a thing, but no one could see the identity of his Razor, even Razor's father Miturin.
"You lied to me. I hate liars the most. Tingge's tone became cold.
"How do you know I'm not a descendant of Ivan?" If it were just by his appearance or other external characteristics, Aaron felt that he had no fault at all.
"Blood. Don't look at me as a human being, but I have Ivan-sama's blood in my body. Although the blood may be very different from Ivan's through dozens of generations of intermarriage, it is certain that there are at least some similarities, which are called heredity. Or genetic inheritance to be precise. I didn't smell the slightest bit of Ivan from your body, so you're lying. Tingge said.
"Hahaha, I'm just talking and playing, my name is Aaron, I'm a pauper, and I'm pretending to be Razor now. You're so good at knowing genetics...... Genetic?" Only halfway through the words, Aaron felt his head stop running, "Weiwei, Tingge, you're talking about genetic inheritance, right?" Aaron let out a surprised voice as he reacted.
"yes, that's right. Hey, how did Lord Ivan know that the next person to appear here would be surprised to hear the words 'genetic inheritance'?" Tingge seemed to be really a little puzzled, holding his head with both hands, showing a surprised expression.
Of course you don't know. Eighty percent of the world's elite is divided between politics and business, as people care about how to increase the power of weapons, how to expand their power, and how to make enough money in the fastest way. The first thing people say when they meet may be how much money you have made today or which earl you have appreciated. As for technology, the technology that stands at the forefront of the world should be alchemy, but it doesn't seem to be very valued, which can be seen from the fact that there is not a single alchemy book in the huge library. In such a world, words like "gene" and "heredity" simply do not exist.
So, Aaron thought of "The Basics of Alchemy", which was written by Ivan, but the content was very similar to "Junior High School Chemistry", and he suddenly had a bold conjecture - Ivan is also a time-traveler like himself. It seems a little unlikely to hear it at first, the probability of two consecutive traversers appearing in one world is too small, but since he can cross into this world, it doesn't seem impossible for someone else to cross over.
"What are you thinking, you won't be stupid, will you?" asked Tingge.
Aaron was woken up from Tinggo's memory, and looked at Tinggo with a complicated expression: "I'm sorry, I deceived you just now, I'm in a bit of a dangerous situation now, so I have to be careful." I was also trying to protect myself. ”
"It's okay, I forgive you. Tingge said nonchalantly.
Tingge's answer was beyond Aaron's expectations, he thought that Tinggo would make a very angry expression, and then give him a political lesson in righteous words, but he didn't expect to be exposed by Tinggo so simply.
Looking at Aaron's surprised expression, Tinggo said helplessly: "I don't want to expose it like this, after all, you don't respect Lord Ivan......"
"I didn't. Aaron explained.
“...... And you've deceived me too......" Tinggo continued ignoring Aaron.
"I'm here to be careful. Aaron explained again.
“...... But I'm really bored, and there's been no one to talk to me for a thousand years. For the sake of your willingness to come and talk to me, I will forgive you for the time being. ”
A thousand years? Aaron felt that if it were him, he would probably have schizophrenia a long time ago, just like Zhou Botong, playing "left and right fighting" by himself.
"But I can't stay here for long, I'm going out. Tingo, there should be an exit to this place, right?" Aaron looked around, re-confirming that there was no exit to this place.
"How do you get in without an exit? Tinggo immediately denied Aaron's claim.
"I don't know how I got in. I saw a magic circle appear under my feet, and then I lost consciousness, and then I ...... That's where it is. Aaron recalled.
"That's it, the exit of this secret room is in this magic array. Tinggo explained.
"But......" Aaron ran into the magic array in one go, jumped up, and then fell to the ground again, "Why didn't this magic array activate, why can't I go back?"
"Alas, you have to inject your own spiritual power, which is commonly known as magic power, into the magic circle. You don't use it at all. ”
"Then what should I do? Will you dismantle the magic array?"
Aaron shook his head.
"Then I can't help it, are you left to fend for yourself?"
"Hey, don't be so ruthless. We know each other even once, so why don't you ask me to show you the way?" Aaron panicked, he didn't want to starve to death in this place.
"There is no clear road, but there is a dead end, do you want it?" Tingge said.
"Don't ...... Wait, let's hear it. "Now Aaron can only use dead horses as live horse doctors.
There was silence in the secret room, and Tingge didn't say the method.
"What's wrong with you?" Aaron asked Tingo.
"Nothing, I remember a long time ago. Ahem, the method is actually like this, you can, no, if you want to get out of here, then you have to crack the magic circle on me. Tingge said.
"If you crack the magic array on your body, then you are not ......"
Tingge nodded: "I will no longer exist." However, this is my mission, it was Lord Ivan who created my meaning, and I don't want to wait any longer, a thousand years is too hard. ”
"Isn't there the best of both worlds?" Aaron asked.
"Unless you're happy to stay with me in this place. ”
"That's it. Aaron touched his nose embarrassedly to hide his embarrassment.
"But this doesn't necessarily get you out? Didn't I just say it's a dead end? If you can't crack my magic circle, you'll lose your life. However, the probability of your success is quite high. Since you can see me, it means that my spiritual power is stronger than that of ordinary people, because Lord Ivan has added a magic circle to measure my spiritual power. People who are mentally weak can't see me. Tingge said.
"So what is my chance of success?" Since his mental strength is not weak, Aaron feels that it is not impossible to try.
"Fifty percent. Tingge gave the answer.
