The pitch-black silhouette I saw was not close to where Lu Feng was.

Lu Feng rode the black clouds and flew for more than an hour before reaching the island in the distance.

Check it out, this island is not too large, just a small island derived from the continental shelf, except for a small fishing village that lives on the sea, only some beasts rich in the characteristics of the Western Regions world survive.

"Is this the people of the Western Regions? Eagle nose, white skin and pointed ears, do these people have elven blood, and the pointed ears that are more famous in the wizarding world are the elves and goblins"

Among the fishermen living on the desert island, except for a few people who have practiced some physical skills, Lu Feng has not found any other strong people who can threaten him.

So, Lu Feng used spells to cover his figure, and mixed in the small fishing village to inquire about the Western Regions.

In the face of Lu Feng's strength, these fishermen had no power to resist at all, and he soon found out a lot of information about the Western Regions.

Although these fishermen are weak, they still know some basic common sense in the Western Regions world.

That's exactly what Lu Feng needs.

The Western Regions is fragmented by the continental plate and many islands, the territory is fragmented, there are many countries, and the political system is similar to the Western Alliance in Lu Feng's previous life, and now under the joint suppression of all the archmages in the Pan-Continental Alliance of Nations, a short peace has been achieved.

At the same time, because of the appearance of the steam engine, the entire Western Regions temporarily entered the steam age.

"Archmage, Age of Steam, Transcendental! It seems that this Western Regions country is still quite interesting! ”

The Western Regions World, which has the existence of extraordinary powers, is the existence that Lu Feng is interested in.

If it's just an ordinary steam era, then he might as well go back to the Trandi Subcontinent and develop his own Red Leaf Tower in the surrounding seas!

However, this small island is closed to information, and Lu Feng only knows the specific information of these things through the knowledge in the heads of these fishermen.

For the time being, it is not possible to make a correct assessment of the strength of the mage profession in the Western Regions.

"If only I could find two mages to come back and study them!" Lu Feng chuckled and set sail again.

The small fishing village discovered by Lu Feng is a small village off the coast of the east of the Kingdom of Lorentan, which belongs to the province of Lena of the Kingdom of Lorentan.

Leaving the small fishing village, Lu Feng didn't take long to arrive at the province of Lena in the Kingdom of Lorentan.

Flying into the territory of the Lorentan Kingdom, Lu Feng suddenly frowned.

He flew at a high altitude and caught up with a thick black cloud, full of irregular particulate matter formed by insufficient combustion of coal.

"It seems that the steam engine in the Rainer Province of the Kingdom of Lorentan has developed quite rapidly, and the exhaust gas produced by the fossil energy burned by the steam engine has begun to affect the natural environment!"

Lu Feng pressed the head of the clouds, and at a glance he saw a huge city.

The towering chimneys of the city billowed black smoke into the sky, creating a pitch-black cloud that obscured the sun. The falling dust made the entire city in Lu Feng's eyes covered with a black veil.

On the straight road, steam locomotives come and go, and there are airships with Western characteristics on the edge of the city taking off and landing to transport goods and passengers.

The most eye-catching thing in the whole city is the white stone tower standing in the center of the city, standing up to the sky and the earth, like a pillar of heaven.

"The first city of Lena Province, Warris City, the tower in the center of the city, that is, the mage tower established by the archmage here in the Western Regions!"

Lu Feng looked at the mage tower in the city from afar in the air, quite interested.

This mage tower is not worthy of shoes compared to the verdant tower, but it is already much stronger than the Red Leaf Tower built and played on the secondary continent of Trandi.

"My luck is not bad, the first time I searched, I found the right direction! The only mage tower in Lorendam exists, and it is easier to come here to contact the extraordinary power of the countries of the Western Regions! ”

Lu Feng will be far away in the clouds, ready to infiltrate the city of Volis.

Sneak into the city, don't shoot a gun!

Before he figured out the details of the other party, Lu Feng was not ready to meet the archmage of the Western Regions World directly.

Lu Feng imitated the appearance of the people in the Western Regions, changed his body shape and skin color, put on a suitable suit, and immediately became a person from the Western Regions.

Using some deceptive spells, Lu Feng easily infiltrated the city of Warris.

As a large city at the forefront of the times in the steam age, Wallis City has no city walls, and it is quite free to come and go, with the only archmage of the Kingdom of Lorentan in charge, and there are not many daring gangsters who dare to make trouble in Wallis City.

The gangsters who offended the Archmage Shenwei in the past have long been sent by the Archmage to hang them on the lamp poles on the side of the road to set an example.

Successfully infiltrating the city, Lu Feng used his powerful spiritual power to eavesdrop on various news while looking for a suitable identity for himself.

If you want to have an open and honest access to the extraordinary power of this world, without a stable identity, Lu Feng's actions will leave flaws, and if he is caught by the archmage here, Lu Feng will inevitably get into trouble for a while.

Under Lu Feng's careful attention, Lu Feng quickly found a suitable candidate.

In a low grocery store,

A young man with a tired face and bloodshot pupils is buying paints for his paintings with his boss.

"Grols, the price of these pigments really couldn't be lower! You also know that the raw materials for various pigments have been rising recently. If not, I advise you to find a job! The chubby grocery store owner Pion said firmly.

Looking at the young man in front of him, Pion's eyes showed regret.

A young man, riding the waves of the steam age, ran to Warris to beg for a living, just like when he was young. But this young man is not smart, and with his knowledge, he can find a class in the factory and gain a foothold in this big city.

It is a pity that this young man chose the most difficult path as a painter, trying to create amazing paintings that shocked the world, and climbed to the sky.

"Brother Pion, don't persuade me! I'm talented, and I can do it! Grolls stopped Pion's persuasion and said with a firm gaze.

"Alas, forget it! There are three silver coins of these paints! Grolls' resoluteness kept Pion from talking.

This kind of young man is the most brain-stinging time, and only when he hits the south wall can he get lost.

What else can Pion do, of course, is to give up the plot of helping others and respect the fate of Grolls.

After taking out all the money in his pocket for today's meal, Grolls barely paid for the paint.

Holding the paint, the excitement in Grols' eyes made him ignore the burning hunger in his stomach and hurried back to his rented apartment.

"Quite a talented young man, but it's a pity that he doesn't understand a truth, painters become famous after their deaths! If you want to be a painter, you don't have the money, you don't have the power to play a fart! ”

Lu Feng cast a spell to cover his figure, followed behind Grolls, and silently commented.

The sun was setting in the west, and the city of Wallis was even more gloomy under black clouds, and before night, many urban areas were already covered in darkness.

Grolls was familiar with the city's roads, crossing half the city, and finally returning to his rented Fenris apartment before night fell completely.

It's an apartment, but it's more like a tube building, and each building is full of rooms that can only accommodate one person. A bed, a table, that's all there is to the room.

The space is closed, but it is better than the cheap, no additional source of income, and Grolls can only afford to live in such a poor place.

There was no bed in Grols's room, there were easels, paints, etc., and any reflective things in the room were plastered with yellow mud.

Back in the room, Grolls immediately checked the various places plastered with yellow mud, and after confirming that it was correct, he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a hideous face:

"Don't think about it, when I draw that picture, it's your end! Want to kill me, dream! Dream! Never! ”

Grolls' mental state was very unstable, and when he took out the paint he had bought, Grolls smiled strangely.

The weird smile, combined with the dim lights in the room, and his gloomy face, were indescribably weird, and also gave the room a strange tranquility. The building was supposed to be a noisy place, but there was a rare silence in Grolls's room.

In the midst of this strange atmosphere, Grolls seized the time to paint.

Paints weave and merge on the canvas, and Grolls' brushstrokes seem to have a strange power to return the jumble of colors to their rightful place.

Gradually, as the oil in the oil lamp is consumed,

A dimly toned seaside town emerges on the canvas, the dark seaside town is dim under the cold last quarter moon, and the distant sea is fluorescent, as if some soggy monster is emerging from the water

Tick! Tick!

As Grols's painting gradually took shape, the sound of water droplets suddenly came from the small room where there was not even water.

It was as if there was a faucet that was not tightened, and the leaking water droplets were ticking on the ground.

Hearing this strange sound, Grolls did not feel frightened, but his face turned red and excited, and he hurriedly took out a mirror from behind the easel that was covered with yellow mud.

Holding the mirror against the canvas, Grolls shuddered and reached out to pull the yellow mud on the mirror.

Smack!

The dry yellow mud fell in response, revealing a smooth mirror, and the scenery of the seaside town on the canvas suddenly fell into the smooth mirror.

Whoa!

It was like the sound of seawater, and Grolls, who was holding the mirror, clearly felt a little more chill in the mirror in his hand, and something more slippery clinged to his hand holding the mirror.

Strokes, light kisses, squeezing weird sensations came.

Grolls gritted his teeth and forced himself to hold on.

"You must hold on, or that monster will crawl out of the mirror and I'll die!"

There was a strange atmosphere in the small room, and in the invisible mirror of Grolls, countless sharp claws stretched out from the glittering mirror, as if to drill out of the mirror and pull the already marked Grolls into the dark mirror.

Whoa!

In the "Picture of a Seaside Town at Night", which Grolles has devoted a lot of effort to drawing, the dark sea seems to be boiling, and the eyes that flicker with fluorescent light become clearer, as if something is about to emerge from the dark water.

Reflected in the dark mirror, the sea monster immediately fought with the mirror claws.

The monsters of the sea emerge from the water, revealing their eerie images of octopus heads, humanoid bodies, and webbed hands and feet, and they let out eerie howls to fight the claws that stick out of the darkness.

Tear each other apart and strangle together.

There are monsters in the sea who tear off their mirror claws, tear them apart, and swallow them; There are also sea monsters that are grabbed by the mirrored claws and dragged into the darkness with a wail, falling silent.

As the two sides fought, the canvas of Grols's painstakingly painted "A Seaside Town at Night" quickly decayed, and the color of the paint faded rapidly.

"Hold on, you must hold on!"

Grolls felt the mirror in his hand grow heavier and heavier, and the canvas in front of him would disappear, but the abominable monster in the mirror was still strong, and a pair of sharp claws had reached out of the mirror after a few moments, grabbing Grols's hand holding the mirror.

The cold, chilly breath came, and Grolls fell into an ice cellar, and his heart let out a desperate wail.

"No, I, Grols, haven't recast the glory of the family yet, I don't want to die!"

But Grolls is just an ordinary man, his resistance is so weak, the only hope for painting has lost its effectiveness, and the only thing he is about to face is death.

One, two. More and more pale claws protrude from the mirror, making the small room feel as if it has entered winter, exhaling into a fog.

"Am I going to die? It's a pity that the wish of the housekeeper of Rhodes has not been fulfilled yet."

Grolls was utterly desperate.

However, at this moment, an unfamiliar voice sounded behind Grolls, and his tone was relaxed and extraordinarily brisk.

"It's kind of interesting!"

Grolls tried to turn back, only to find that his body couldn't move at all.

His eyes widened, and he saw only a hand as warm as jade.

Good handsome hands, if used to be a model

At this moment, a strange idea suddenly popped into Grolls.

Before he could diverge his thoughts, he saw the beautiful hand like jade, stretched out gently, grabbed a pale claw sticking out of the mirror, and gently tugged it.

Grolls felt a powerful force coming from the mirror in his hand.

The next moment,

Kiss! Bang!

A strange black mass full of claws was forcibly pulled out of the mirror by that hand.

Lu Feng pinched it lightly, and the mana in his hand surged, turning the monster full of claws into a small ball and pinching it in his hand.

The monster that made Grolls desperate was as weak as an ant in a glass ball in Lu Feng's hands.

"Goo-dong!"

Grolls swallowed hard, dumbfounded.

Throwing away the monster in his hand, Lu Feng smiled at Grolls with a pleasant face, and then said:

"Mr. Grols, do you want to understand the meaning of life?"
