What's going on with this familiarity of scams?

Matthew complained in his heart.

But there was silence on his lips.

He's new to the city, and he doesn't know where this place is, so it's better to keep a low profile.

Seeing that the three people below were silent.

The phantom on the galaxy suddenly snorted coldly:

"Where are the soldiers?"

The voice fell.

Behind it, the Milky Way is the stage, and suddenly it unfolds like a picture scroll.

in the picture.

Thousands of troops followed the burly figure in armor and charged into battle.

Matthew saw it really.

The first thing that caught my eye was a group of emaciated figures in short gray and white robes, carrying turquoise long bows, fire guns hanging from their waists, and cranes riding under their crotches, and they swept high into the air.

This is the Flying Crane Army.

Followed by.

On the vast land in the picture scroll, a group of burly and mighty men rode a fat and strong earth dragon and pushed it flat.

The weapons in their hands are relatively mixed, ranging from spears and halberds to double-bladed axes, but most of them are heavy weapons with wide openings and closings.

The Sioux knowledge in Matthew's mind then came to mind.

This should be the Yellow Dragon Army under the command of the Sioux Emperor.

The final scene of the scroll comes to the sea.

But behold the stormy waves.

One after another, super giant building ships were born.

No matter how big the wind and waves.

The buildings and boats are as stable as the ground.

There are also many domesticated sea beasts busy on the sea near the ship.

On board, soldiers in light blue shirts moved on the deck and mast as if they were walking on the ground.

Suddenly.

A loud roar masked everything—

But it was the cannon fire on the ship!

Only for a moment.

Kill a sea beast wreaking havoc in the sea on the spot!

This is the Hailou Army of the Soviet Union!

Above the Milky Way.

The momentum of the three armed forces in unison is particularly astonishing.

And as the scroll slowly closes, the impressive figures of the three armies gradually transform into three towering peaks.

The mountain peaks stand on the plains, where they meet the Milky Way.

The vivid scenes are like ink paintings that have been colored.

It feels strange and real.

Matthew could strongly feel that the armies in the picture scroll were definitely real!

"Is this the scene in the Eastern Continent more than a thousand years ago?"

Matthew was slightly excited.

But he didn't let his guard down.

The picture is real.

It doesn't mean that the phantom on the galaxy who claims to be the emperor of the Sioux is also real.

Right now.

The phantom spoke slowly:

"If you don't believe me, go to the docks of Sword Winter City and look for a sea elf named Jue, who will guide you where you need to go."

"But it's hard to find a trace, you need to go to the shipwreck of Sword Winter City first, find a lost shrine, there is a statue of the Sioux Emperor near the shrine, you just need to light a sandalwood on the shrine, so for seven consecutive days, and then go to the dock, you can meet the Jeeze."

"As long as you can be loyal to me and do things for me, you will surely gain supreme glory and extraordinary power."

"It's useless to talk more, let you wait to see my divine power first, and then you can decide for yourself whether to become my pioneer or not!"

Between words.

A golden light fell from the Milky Way.

The golden light sank into Matthew's body.

Followed by.

He had a little more knowledge in his head!

……

"Hint: You have gained knowledge and how to make the "Prayer Incense Burner".

Prayer incense burner: Through this object, you can theoretically fulfill some simple wishes."

……

"Prayer technique?"

Matthew raised an eyebrow:

"It's kind of interesting."

Just when he wanted to talk to the phantom above the galaxy.

The latter waved his hand a little tiredly:

"Go, go, go."

"This is the Divine Realm, not a place where mortals like you can stay for a long time!"

The next second.

A powerful repulsion drove Matthew out.

He and the two figures beside him immediately disappeared into nothingness.

A few more minutes passed.

The phantom above the galaxy vanished in silence.

The earth is still a vast expanse.

The stars on the top are circulating, and the sun and moon are not visible, and I don't know how much time has passed.

A small shadow reappeared on the mountain and river from before!

"I'm really back!"

Matthew, who had gone and returned, had a little surprise on his face.

Torrance's blessing, Matthew's spiritual power has increased greatly after using the Sea Spirit Meditation Technique to devour the spiritual origin of two units.

Focus on skyrocketing.

He found that he had also become handy with the micro-manipulation of mental power.

Just now.

When you are about to be evicted.

Matthew left an anchor point of spiritual power here, and after his consciousness returned to the real world, he wanted to activate this anchor point for the first time, and then enter this space.

I didn't expect it to succeed after only one attempt!

"This is supposed to be an illusion world similar to the evil mind space of the sorcerer."

"The images I just saw were unreal."

"Or, a projection of some real space in the world of illusion......"

Matthew walked alone among the dark mountains.

He deliberately closed his eyes and walked awildly.

But it doesn't matter which way he's going.

will not hit the mountain, and will not fall.

This is the characteristic of illusion.

Matthew knew that the people who created this illusion world must be quite clever in the realm of illusions.

But the awkward part of illusion is that it's hard to really do it all.

Some scenes may be able to reach the point of being realistic if deliberately maintained by the illusionist.

But now, when Matthew revisited the space and saw that there were holes everywhere.

This shows that the illusionists who created this illusion world are not very careful to maintain it at the moment.

He must have been distracted from something else.

This just gave Matthew a chance to take advantage of the situation.

Between thoughts.

Matthew saw Yu Yao's figure again.

He walked over to greet the other party, but Yu Yao didn't seem to see him and did his own thing.

"It's also an illusory projection ......"

Matthew knew it.

Both Yugathe and Terast must have entered this illusion world at some point.

They also left projections as well.

The difference is.

The time when Yu Yao came in was closer to the present;

And Terast, it is very likely that he strayed here when he was a teenager.

Therefore, the projection of the other party staying here is also quite immature.

Considering the age of Terast.

This world of illusion has apparently been around for some years.

"Maybe this illusion world is sustained by Terlast!"

Matthew thought of the apocalypse of Terast.

But I don't feel like the time is right.

If Terast had completed the Apocalypse at a young age, how could he have run away to become the Generalissimo of the Wind Chaser?

After thinking about it, Matthew felt that there were many contradictions.

So he immediately gave up trying to figure it out.

Instead, he wholeheartedly searched for loopholes in the illusion space.

It didn't take long.

Matthew can be sure:

"The ground is all fake, and the textures are not good......"

"Wherever I go, those three peaks follow me, either because the illusionist is lazy, or the materials are limited and can only be recycled."

So he set his sights on the starry night.

"I should have a pair of wings!"

Matthew called out strongly in his heart.

A moment later.

A pair of angelic wings really grew from his back.

With the help of wings.

Matthew successfully flew up!

"Sure enough, in the world of illusion, as long as you have enough mental power, you can make your wishes come true!"

"But fantasizing about wings and continuing to fly consumes mental energy."

"I don't know if I'll be able to hold on to that galaxy......"

Anyway, you can't die.

Matthew flew straight with his head down.

I don't know how long he flew, but he finally got his wish and came to the place where the phantom had stayed before.

But soon Matthew was disappointed:

"The galaxy is also a textured ......"

"This illusionist can pull me into the illusion world from my sleep, I thought I was a super master, but I didn't expect the details to be so rough!"

He shuttles back and forth between the galaxies.

In some cases, you can even see a curtain interspersed between some of the screens!

This illusionary space is like a picture album of ink paintings.

The graphics are beautiful.

But the construction is really crude.

When Matthew was flying back and forth on the Milky Way, it didn't take much effort to find the gap between the three images.

And in each crevice lies a small cabin.

Matthew was the first to push open the door of the first cabin.

The furnishings in the wooden house are quite rudimentary-

A bed, a set of tables and chairs, a cupboard, and nothing else.

The cupboard was empty.

There is only one futon on the bed.

On the table was a heavy, dusty journal with two thin charcoal pens next to it.

Matthew opened the diary, which was densely filled with Sioux words.

The knowledge of the Emissary of Equilibrium is enough for him to read the contents.

Matthew read it carefully.

Soon.

He realized that the owner of the diary was a jailer of the Great Wall Mage Legion.

The jailer was in charge of keeping a legendary creature called the Phantom Dragon.

The jailer is a dutiful man.

He would tell him what the phantom dragon ate in prison every day, how many times he went to the toilet, how many times he cursed the emperor, and how many times he played with the mage's hand...... These are recorded in detail in the diary, and an additional copy is said to have been made for regular reporting.

From the diary.

Matthew learns a lot about the Phantom Dragon.

He knew that the phantom dragon was sexually lewd, he liked the beauties of all races, in addition, he was extremely cunning, he was afraid of the soft and the hard, he was proficient in the field of illusion and fraud, and he had done a lot of ridiculous things in the Eastern Continent.

And the reason why the phantom dragon is imprisoned here.

It is said that it was because he deceived the daughter of a certain generation of Sioux emperors, causing the latter to commit suicide.

Enraged, the Emperor imprisoned the prison in the Land of the Nine Shadows and ordered the owner of the diary to guard it.

Matthew watched this part over and over again.

vaguely speculated that the so-called Nine Secluded Lands probably referred to the current Far East!

But what puzzled Matthew was -

It is not evident from the map drawn by the jailer in the diary.

For the Eastern Continent.

The Far East was also the front line against demons.

Why did such a place that could fall at any time become the first choice for prisoners?

It is not difficult to see from the information that comes out of the diary.

This so-called Nine Shadows Land not only imprisons phantom dragons, but also many vicious criminals.

Isn't Su Guo afraid that the Nine Secluded Land will be attacked by the demons, and the prisoners will collectively carnival?

Matthew skipped through this section of the chapter with doubts.

When reading a diary.

He is particularly sensitive to any time-related information.

In the end, he sorted out such a timeline-

"-A few years before the Meteor Calendar, the Phantom Dragon (legendary creature) was defeated by the Great Wall Mage Legion and imprisoned in the Land of the Nine Shadows; -

After 120 years of meteor calendar, the jailer's daily record was interrupted; -

In the 800th year of the meteor calendar, it is suspected that the phantom dragon himself left in his diary taunting the jailer and scolding the Sioux emperor;

-

In the year 1219 of the meteor calendar, the suspected phantom dragon wrote in his diary, "I found a way to leave, I am such a genius......" and a long passage related to it."

……

"1219, that's last year......"

Matthew's mind flickered.

From that passage, he learned that the Phantom Dragon sensed that the odd number of days was approaching.

He foresaw in advance that some vanishing historical world would form a projection of the material realm.

And in the process.

The Phantom Dragon can use the passage between the historical world and its projection in the material realm to project his illusionary space in the Nine Shadows onto the continent of Aindor.

He can use this illusion space to trick some people who know of the existence of the Sioux into coming in, so as to work for him.

The contents of the last page of the diary are-

"I'm not far from getting out of trouble!"

The handwriting looks particularly fresh, and it may even be the pen that has been used in recent days.

"Whew!"

Matthew gently closed the journal and let out a cloudy breath.

A flash of suspicion flashed in his eyes—

If the jailer keeps a diary for daily reporting, it may also be for the time to pass the time;

So why did the phantom dragon then write it in his diary?

This is somewhat of a meaning that there are no three hundred taels of silver here.

Matthew felt that even what the jailer wrote might not be all credible, because this world was projected by the phantom dragon, and he could fine-tune the details!

He even suspected that the Phantom Dragon knew about his whereabouts and returned, and that he had deliberately shown these things to himself!

Matthew settled:

"There's no need to be so suspicious, the Phantom Dragon's goal must be to get out of trouble, his deity is in the Far East, it is impossible to forcibly cause harm to me at such a distance, I just don't need to be greedy."

Get out of this chalet.

Matthew immediately went to the second room.

The cabin is much larger, and there are bookshelves filled with all kinds of magic books!

There is also this sign hanging at the door of the house-

The Reading Room of the Nine Secluded Lands of the Great Wall Mage Legion.

between the bookshelves.

Matthew could also see a dragon of books busy.

But these are all illusory images.

Matthew has nothing to do with each of them.

He passed by a scroll dragon, searched the shelves, and then took down a book.

Matthew took a cursory look at the table of contents.

The book is called the Curse of Burning Hearts, and it contains a list of the magic of the Burning Spell and the seven associated variations and auxiliary spells.

The Heartburner is a variant of illusion that can interfere with a person's emotions, making them prone to anxiety and rage.

This spell is unremarkable on its own.

But if you use the group version, if you use it against a group of targets, it will have a qualitative effect!

Crowds amplify shared emotions.

Anger and anxiety will destroy everyone's sanity.

Matthew tried to keep the book in his head.

It's a bit of a strenuous process.

After all, his very existence consumes mental power.

But in the end, Matthew did it.

When he closed the Heartburn Spell.

His eyebrow bones began to ache sharply, and his eyeballs were pounding.

Matthew knew that this was a precursor to a lack of mental power.

He immediately withdrew from this illusion world.

The next second.

Matthew's consciousness returns to the mage camp.

"The anchor is still there, you can go in at any time."

He breathed a sigh of relief.

The content of the spell that had just been recorded began to quickly come to mind.

Matthew took a moment to transcribe the Heartburner on the scroll.

Do it all.

He went to the fraud field to take a walk, and with the accumulation of enough fraud elements, Matthew gained a new field ability-

"Tight-lipped: You can define a message related to you as top-secret.

Since then, no one who knows the news has been able to leak it to anyone else, either verbally or in writing."

"It's an interesting ability, but why is it a fraud ability?"

"Do you have to keep your mouth shut to complete the fraud?"

Matthew felt a bit far-fetched.

But anyway, he also entered the field of fraud in an anti-fraud way.

Whatever ability you gain is an unexpected surprise.

Don't be in vain.

He took a break and regained some mental strength.

Then he took out the incense burner of the past that he had used when he was a high-level necromancer.

He replaced the spices in the censer with cinnamon, cloves, and pepper, and then inserted a short stick of sandalwood in the censer.

Matthew fetchews a charcoal pencil.

Write a line of magical text in Sioux on the base of the incense burner.

That's it.

A simple "prayer incense burner" was modified.

"I'd like to see how this phantom dragon does what people want."

With such a feeling.

Matthew lit the sandalwood in the censer.

Gray smoke rises.

Matthew began chanting the prayer that the Phantom Dragon had given him.

Not much.

The rising column of smoke changed into a rather square face.

The face asked solemnly:

"What do you want?"

Matthew thought about it and decided to come up with a simple one:

"I want to pick up the money at least once in the next 24 hours."

The face said calmly:

"Simple."

"Put 100 gold coins in the censer."

"Your wish will come true."
