Chapter 195: The Unsuccessful Lukes
On the day Lin Xiao came to the City of Stars, he was designated as the "Day of the Gathering of Stars" by the Lord of Zhongxing of the Demon Country, the Holy King Avar.
For thousands of years after that, from the "Day of the Gathering of the Stars", a month-long celebration was held throughout the Wizard Country.
In addition to a wide variety of food, there are also many traditional celebrations.
One of the most popular is probably a chase game called "The Belly of the Goddess".
Participants toss fragrant magic pies at each other, and once hit, the delicious pies automatically burrow from the participants' mouths and into their stomachs.
Although there are often people who vomit, diarrhea, and even die because they are forced to eat too much.
But this activity has been going on for thousands of years, and I am afraid it will continue forever.
As for why this activity took off on the "Day of the Stars" and why it continued in this form.
In the mouths of the demon guide people of later generations, it has always been a legend with different opinions.
Of course, in the days when Lin Xiao had not yet left the Demon Guide Country, the strange activity of "filling the belly of the goddess" that lasted for thousands of years did not exist.
Hananos, who became the most famous historian and folklorist in the history of the Magius a hundred years later, can testify to this.
"Avar, what exactly have you prepared? How could it be so grand? ”
As we get closer to the Tower of the Stars, more and more residents of the Wizard Nation gather on both sides of the road.
According to Lin Xiao's estimates, I am afraid that most of the residents of the Demon Guide Country participated in this welcoming ceremony.
I saw all kinds of subjects of the Demon Guiding Nation constantly throwing flower petals into the air.
Their faces were filled with joy from the bottom of their hearts, and when they looked at the carriage Lin Xiao was riding, their eyes were full of incomparable admiration.
"Lord Midnight, that's what Helena meant."
She said...... Not being able to let all the creatures in this world witness the greatness of her teacher is really the biggest regret in her heart. ”
“……”
After hearing what Avar said, Lin Xiao couldn't help frowning.
It seems that the "condition" of his apprentice seems to be more serious.
"What did Helena say to these people?"
Seeing that Lin Xiao was a little displeased, Avar wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead in fright, and hurriedly said, "Lord Helena told the subjects of the Demon Guide Country like this......"
"'Today is the day when the greatest man in the world, the pillar of the Demon Guiding Nation, and the saint who protects all the peoples, comes to the royal capital, and all the subjects of the Demon Guiding Kingdom must come here to welcome him unless there are special circumstances.'"
"I see."
Lin Xiao was relieved to see that Helena did not reveal her identity to ordinary people.
As a killer, he doesn't like to be in the spotlight.
Of course, the killer should hide in the shadows, use the blade in his hand, and use bloody means to practice justice in his heart and maintain peace in the world.
Lin Xiao, who didn't realize that he was actually "not lightly ill", grabbed it casually and teleported a person into the carriage.
"Big guy?"
Lukes, who looked confused, was stunned for a while before finally reacting, the current situation was that Lin Xiao was summoning him.
"Big guy! I haven't seen you for a long time, but I miss me! ”
Pushing away Lukes, who was about to hug him, Lin Xiao frowned and asked, "Is your work with Adam going well?" Is the king of the Knights of Rafman willing to join our alliance? ”
"This ...... It's okay, the one named Richard is very cunning, the Holy Fire Cult and us, he doesn't want to offend either side. ”
"Hey, but who am I, Lukes? Under my coercion and temptation, isn't that old fox just a catch? ”
"I'll have to make a few more trips before he can fall to us completely, though."
"Next time I go, I must use the technique of attacking the heart, such as ......"
"Stop, stop, we'll talk about the details later."
Lin Xiao saw that Lux had opened the conversation box and hurriedly interrupted him.
He didn't just call this man to listen to his report.
"Do you remember that?"
Seeing that Lux didn't know why, Lin Xiao hurriedly reminded: "The matter of the Holy Demon Master." ”
Lux's indifferent appearance made Lin Xiao a little anxious.
Didn't he beg himself to find a way to help him get the title of Magister?
"Alas, why are you so unkind?"
"No, big, big guy, I don't understand what you mean?"
Seeing Lux's cowardly expression, Lin Xiao, who hated iron but not steel, said angrily: "I will make you a Holy Demon Master today and participate in this welcoming ceremony for me, can you understand?" ”
"What did you say?"
Hearing Lin Xiao say this, Lux was directly stunned.
Even he had forgotten that when he begged Lin Xiao to let him obtain the title of Magister, Lin Xiao made a promise to himself.
"This, that's not very good, right? I'm such a dish, wouldn't it be too reluctant to be a holy magister? ”
Saying this, the sparkling eyes betrayed Lux's heart.
Unlike Lin Xiao, Lux likes to be in the limelight very much.
However, he also has a very rare advantage, that is, "very self-aware".
His talent is limited, he is lazy, and his rank has never been able to rise.
Even with the massive resources provided by Lin Xiao, his level had only just reached level 80.
Lukes is clear-headed.
I am afraid that it is not safe for me to forcibly serve as a Holy Demon Master with the title of "the strongest person in the continent" without even breaking through the upper limit of the level for the first time.
"It's okay, you can practice at a low level, it's not that difficult."
"That's right......
Lux lifted the curtain of the carriage, looked out, and then rubbed his hands and smiled: "But big guy, it's almost to the central square, Princess Helena is waiting there, where do you let me practice......"
"With so many people watching, if I become a holy demon master, I can't say it without showing my hands."
"Why don't you let me use the 'Demonic Stuffing Prop' to throw out a few high-level magic tricks to fool around?"
Seeing that Lux was so unsuccessful, his mind was full of opportunistic ideas, Lin Xiao couldn't help but sigh.
"You, how did I make you my ally in the first place?"
Before he could finish speaking, he grabbed Lukes by the shoulders and pulled him into the Ring of Anubis.
When the two of them reappeared in the carriage in the next second, the expression on Lukes' face changed drastically.
His eyes, for some reason, were weathered, and seemed to have a wisdom to see through all the sufferings of the world.
His beard had also grown, and even a little gray, and he looked a lot older.
"Two hundred years, two hundred years and you have been promoted to level 200?"
Lin Xiao is going crazy.
This Lux is too unremarkable.
Motivated people like Helena and Gollum will be able to reach the second level cap after more than ten years of cultivation at most.
But look at Lux.
Under his own personal teaching, it actually took this person a full hundred years to comprehend the seed of Godhead, and it took another eighty years for the seed of Godhead to germinate, and then it took another twenty years to barely reach level 260.
For two hundred years, Lux could be said to have no fighting spirit.
He tried everything he could to be lazy, and he was even fearless of death threats, which simply made Lin Xiao, who had planned to teach him carefully, crazy.
"Big guy, I think I've realized that I seem to have mastered some kind of method that can make my strength increase quickly......"
"You're a! I ......"
After taking a few deep breaths, Lin Xiao suppressed the urge in his heart to use super-level magic to blow Lux into the sky.
Anyway, Lux now has a level of 260.
Having obtained the rare super advanced profession of "Polar Law God", he is undoubtedly a top powerhouse compared to the former great mages in the Demon Guidance Country.
For him to be the new Holy Demon Mentor of the Demon Guiding Country, it should not be regarded as an insult to the title of "Holy Demon Master".
The reason why Lin Xiao insisted on letting Lux serve as the Holy Demon Master, in addition to his previous promise, was also because he wanted to introduce someone to deal with the troublesome things that needed to be shown for him.
This is not only in line with Lukes's position in the team, but it is also a good thing to be able to round out the lies that he had casually told before on the side of the Holy Fire Sect.
"Alright, you can improvise in a moment."
After that, Lin Xiao was not verbose, and directly used magic to hide himself and leave the carriage in advance.
Five minutes later, the carriage finally reached the "central square" in front of the tower.
As the doors slowly opened, the Wizard King Avar stepped out of the carriage with the support of his attendants and stepped onto the high platform that had been prepared.
In the face of tens of thousands of citizens of the Demon Guide Country, Avar was not frightened at all, and obviously had a rather kingly demeanor.
"My People ......"
Before the words fell, the tens of thousands of subjects on the field had already erupted in a mountain of cheers.
Although the Demon Guiding Kingdom has not been rebuilt for a long time, they all have a strong sense of belonging to the Demon Guiding Country.
Under the national policy promulgated by Avar, in addition to the original Wizard Nationals, the first 100,000 people who pass the background check and become naturalized Wizard Nationals can directly obtain the status of "Wizard Nationals".
Don't underestimate the status of this citizen.
For thousands of years afterward, becoming an official Wizard Citizen has always been the dream of everyone in the Alpha Continent.
The Magic Nation not only enjoys super high welfare benefits, but also enjoys free magical housing issued by the state.
They don't worry about food, they don't worry about shelter, they don't worry about clothing.
Leaving aside the fact that you can live the life of a superior person by lying flat at home every day, the heirs of the Demon Guide Nation can also be directly admitted to the "Demon Guide Country Magic Academy" that the spellcasters of the whole continent want to join when they become adults, and get the opportunity to step into the Demon Path.
Of course, these policies were not yet fully established in the early days of Avar's reign, but the current state preferential policies of the Wizard Nation have made people who are fortunate enough to be subjects of the Wizard Nation feel great admiration and respect for him as an "omnipotent and powerful king".
Especially the old subjects who have experienced the fall of the Demon Guiding Nation.
On the day of the fall of the old Demon King's City, they thought it was all over.
But now, it seems that the Demon Guiding Nation has returned to its former glory.
Many of the old subjects of the Demon Guiding Nation couldn't help but shed tears of excitement when they saw the high-spirited new King Avar take the stage to speak.
"Long live the Wizard Country!"
"Long live King Avar!"
After the earth-shattering cheers subsided, the demon guide citizens present soon set off even more cheers.
There is no other reason, just because of a sentence from Avar -
"Today's grand event is a gift to welcome the enthronement of the new Holy Demon Master of my Demon Guide Country!"
"Raise your heads, subjects, and behold our Guardian, Guardian of Humanity, the new Holy Magister, His Highness Lux!"
