Chapter 188: Fantasy Is Not So Easy to Shine into Reality (2-in-1)
"What a nuisance."
Erin pulled her beautiful boots out of the muddy mountain dirt road with a look of disgust.
Her luck seems to be a little bad, the huge examination venue has been passed to such a place.
After breaking free, she took out her Philosopher's Stone, but was not prepared to inject it with mana.
She wasn't ready to take the test.
If outsiders see her movements, they will inevitably have doubts.
In the eyes of outsiders, Miss Kahlan is like a beautiful, dazzling and arrogant white swan, never bowing her head in front of anyone. No matter where she is, as long as there is competition, she will inevitably fight for the first place.
But now, she actually wants to give up this exam?
"I have more important things to do." Erin rubbed the warm stone, chuckled and shook her head.
For her at this stage, it is indeed a thing to do to temper herself through the exam.
But if you want to take the long term, there is no better time than now.
As far as she knew, in recent days, the main powers led by the royal family have begun to weaken the aristocratic circle led by the Yinok family.
Although at the moment, what is cut off is insignificant, but what is more important is the royal family's attitude towards this matter.
[Recommended,@
The current head of the Kahlan family is Erin's grandfather, and this old man, who is close to the candle in the wind, has begun to gradually delegate power and prepare to train offspring to succeed him.
Normally, there is no doubt that the successor will be Erin's father Bagrit, but the strange thing is that when the old man faced this matter, he found not only Erin's father, but also her.
The Kahlan family asked the two of them to share their opinions, and although the father and daughter were father and daughter, the differences in opinion could be described as very different.
Although Baglitte lived a dissolute life, his judgment of things still belonged to the conservative ideas of the traditional aristocracy. He said it was okay to participate, but not to contribute.
Erin, on the other hand, had the opposite idea.
She believes that it is necessary to support it, and it must be strengthened, but the target is not to support the traditional aristocracy, but to support the emerging aristocracy.
Erin's idea was naturally whimsical in the eyes of Baglitte, who mocked Irene as a naïve child, saying that she did not understand slick politics at all, blindly only wanted to pursue excitement, and forgot the inheritance of the aristocracy. Erin, on the other hand, said that sooner or later, an old thing like him would be washed down the drain by the garbage heap that swept the streets.
The two argued, but the old man did not say a word, so the matter was put on hold for the time being.
But this certainly won't be the case for long.
Baglitte is also recognized as the future heir no matter what, and his ideas are quite reasonable, so it is easy to win the support of the rest of the family, but Erin is a little girl, and it is really too difficult to get support.
If the head of the Karan family has been silent, then the final outcome of the matter will inevitably be led by Baglitte.
Erin is naturally reluctant to be a loser, so in recent days, she has been wandering around trying to gain support, and although it has been very successful, she has never given up.
Because if the result is finally biased in her favor, it means that she has the ability to occupy a certain level in the family, and her grandfather's ambiguous attitude seems to be choosing an heir, and if she wants to fight for support in the future, it must be much simpler than now.
"For my father, what he hates most now must be that my grandfather lives too long and lives until I grow up."
Erin stretched lazily, her green curves seduced by the golden sun.
With a sigh of relief, she clenched the Philosopher's Stone and was about to crush it when she suddenly moved.
"Qiang—"
The sword was unsheathed, and she looked warily to the side.
There, it seemed that the wind was blowing through the leaves, bringing a rustling sound, which was particularly harsh.
Other than that, there don't seem to be any visions.
However, as a good warrior and a shrewd woman, Erin's sixth sense reminds her all the time. ….
There, there's something.
The magic surged, and without hesitation, she lifted her foot and kicked out a huge stone.
With the blessing of powerful kinetic energy, the stone was very fast, and almost in the blink of an eye, it cut through the space and shot into the tree.
And just as it sank into the leafy foliage, it was suddenly knocked back at an almost identical speed, and sank into the dirt in front of the girl.
The boots she cared about were stained with the mud that had been splashed, but Erin didn't look down at it, only squinted her eyes slightly, and smiled coldly.
"Come out, little mouse."
"Tsk."
A man with a strange hood on his head jumped leisurely from his book.
"Sometimes, even I have to feel that women's intuition is really scary - although I don't pay much attention to hiding myself."
「.......」
Erin didn't answer, just stared at the man's hood.
The shape of the hood was very strange, as if a piece of clothing had been violently torn apart and forcibly put together, and it was stained with large and small brown marks, especially ....... Bloodstain!
Taking a deep breath, Erin bit the tip of her tongue and used the pain to relieve the fear and trembling of the huge blood and killing intent that caused her body after the man appeared
Shake.
The next moment, she didn't hesitate to crush her own philosopher's stone.
She knows very well about her strength, and the strength of the person in front of her is definitely more than a star and a half above her.
Running away is not something that has to be ridiculed, not knowing the current affairs is.
It's just that, after she crushed the Philosopher's Stone, although there was a familiar warm yellow glow wrapped around her body, it was strange that she didn't leave the place.
"Ah, I'm sorry." The man said leisurely, "Ten minutes ago, I asked someone else to destroy the teleportation array you set up, so your teleportation stones should be no different from ordinary stones now....... Hey, I advise you not to run, do you think that little toy-like protection can stop me?"
「.......」
Erin's steps barely trembled before they stiffened again.
She did want to run out before the protective light dissipated now, to see if there was a way to get rid of him.
Now it seems that it may indeed be useless.
With a slight sigh, Erin raised her eyes to look at the man.
"I'm familiar with your voice." She asked, "So, who are you?"
"Shhhh The man raised his index finger to his lips and did his best to maintain that mysterious look, "I can't guarantee that I will succeed, that's why I put on this hood, so please forgive me for not being able to tell you.......
"I guess I know." Erin raised her eyebrows, "So, Mr. Yinok, why are you doing this?"
"Tsk......." Anock chuckled and shook his head, "You don't have to test me like that."
"Even if you can confirm my identity, you won't be able to pass this news on, even if you do....... Why do you think I'm wearing this hood?"
「.......」
Erin's heart sank.
Her thoughts were once again seen through.
As a woman who has always been in the social circle, there is a skill that must be learned.
Use tools or magic at all times to record the things that outsiders promise without leaving a trace. ….
After all, a man's words are always no different from fart.
This is a skill that Erin can also do, and she is extremely proficient.
What she originally wanted was to find out the identity of the other party, then record it, and then hide it, so that the people who came to check the situation later could know what the truth was.
And the reason why she guessed that it was Yinnok was because Lynn had told her before that Yinnok had plans to go on in the academy.
But now, Irene's idea has undoubtedly failed again.
In fact, Enoch was not wrong at all.
As long as he wears a hood and does not really expose his appearance to everyone, it is impossible for anyone to accuse and sanction him with "speculation".
Magic projection?
That kind of thing, just find someone with the relevant knowledge to tamper with.
Speech?
The best distorted thing in the world is human words.
It doesn't matter if it's seen and spread by a small number of people.
The minority will eventually obey the majority.
It's outrageous, but that's the reality.
"Alright, I don't need to say anything superfluous."
Carrying his spear, he smiled and said, "Now you can try to escape."
"After all, chasing prey is part of the fun."
Proponents of the belief in the God of Blood have never pursued more than just killing.
Like the followers of the Lord of Pleasure, they are eager to let themselves fall into the depths of the sea.
The only difference is that the believers of the Lord of Pleasure sink into the ocean of desire, while the believers of the God of Blood pursue the pleasure of torture and killing even more.
The more powerful the prey and the more miserable the form of death, the more excited they will be.
Simply slashing and slaying stake-like characters can only be done at best
It's kind of sharpening.
Yes, but not all the time.
Faced with such a playful "request", Erin decided to carry it out without hesitation.
She didn't know if she would be able to escape, but she knew she couldn't hold on to the idea that it would be impossible.
Even if there is only a glimmer of life, she will not give up.
She's still young, there's a lot of future to explore, and she hasn't even put on her wedding dress yet....... Even she once longed for the wedding hall.
It is the best dream that every immature girl will inevitably have in her heart, perhaps because of the increase in experience, the increase in knowledge, and the change of personality that they no longer want to be extravagant, but it did exist.
So, at least for now, she can't die.
"Huh."
Yin Nok smiled brightly.
He let Erin run far, far away, but he never moved.
He just silently counted down the numbers.
Generally speaking, after being in danger, people do not notice that danger is coming for a long time, and they will subconsciously relax their vigilance - people's energy does not allow them to stay focused when they are not oppressed - so that they feel that they have escaped for a while.
The length of time varies, but there's a standard here at Innok.
"Five minutes, one minute left....... Three, two......."
"Click—"
The falling branches helped him call out the last number.
In an instant, a shrill sonic boom suddenly sounded in the originally empty dense forest, and large swaths of leaves were scattered and splashed by the burst of magic, and a little closer, the trunks of trees that needed to be surrounded by several people were even shattered by its fluctuations at the moment of the explosion of magic power.
As the hunted person, Erin naturally heard this amazing sound.
At that moment, she still had soothing magic, but now it stopped running directly because of the majestic coercion, and every pore, every pore, every inch of skin, and every hair was warning her brain.
She wanted to come up with the corresponding means to counteract, but she couldn't do anything.
The only thing she could do was twist her head and look feebly at the blood-colored spear to her heart.
At that moment, she thought about a lot of things, and she could even imagine what it would look like to be hanging on a tree.
But......
"Miss, I think you should know."
"Most of the time, fantasy doesn't come to life so easily."
