Chapter 136: Life is Always Full of Accidents (4k)
Led by Alina, Rogers and Rufia make their way through a zigzag path through a maze of narrow passages.
As time passed, Rogers only felt that every path he traveled seemed to converge, intersect, and converge and diverge again.
After a long time, when Alina waved her hand to remove the phantom of the stone wall in front of her, revealing a large oval-shaped gap, a two-story cabin stood quietly behind it.
The hut sat in the middle of a hollow, made of rough logs, without any ornamentation, only the simplest and most unpretentious appearance.
"You don't know enough about botanical spells to build this cabin, right? Both in terms of its size and its sophistication. Rogersmo rubbed his chin and looked at the cabin in front of him, and after a moment's thought, he asked, "Did you get storage items from the old woman named Nephtrith?" ”
"Yes, but only things related to plant properties can be stored." Alina didn't deny it, and responded very dryly.
Rogers bowed slightly, then strode towards the wooden house like a lord patrolling the territory, and unceremoniously raised his hand to push the door in.
"Let there be light."
As his words fell, a rune representing "light" quickly carved out on the ceiling, and the bright light poured down, illuminating the small living room of the entire house, giving this humble space a unique atmosphere.
Although the cabin was simple and cramped, after Rogers looked inside and out, he realized that the general shape of the cabin was very similar to the dormitory of Hilmy Academy.
"Wow! So handsome! How is this done?! Can I learn? ”
Rufia, who followed Rogus to the door, asked excitedly as she stared at the runes on the ceiling with burning eyes.
She didn't notice any signs of Rogus mobilizing his magic beforehand, and it was a semi-permanent rune that normally needed to be carved with a carving knife, not something that ordinary spells could easily create.
But Rogers did not cast a spell or use a carving knife, but said a casual word, and succeeded.
"Absolutely." Rogers replied generously, he raised his hand and rubbed Rufia's little head, and continued to grin: "You are completely free to learn what you want to learn in the future, no one can oppress you anymore, and we will finally control our own destiny." ”
Alina had just rearranged the bewilderment spell so that she had only stepped into the room at this moment, and after hearing Rogess's statement, she raised her eyes to look at the runes, and said lightly:
"It's too bright, it's darker."
Rogers frowned slightly when he saw that the light from the runes had instantly softened, and his face showed displeasure.
The meaning structure of this occult language was originally built by Alina, so it was not surprising that the other party would be able to use it freely.
But the way she adjusted the lights without even asking a word, and the disrespectful tone that was so different from before, made Rogers feel a little uncomfortable.
Bang –
The door was slammed shut by Alina, Lufia subconsciously shrunk her neck when she heard the sound, her eyes wandered between Alina and Rogus a few times, and in an instant she put on the appearance of remembering something, and hurriedly said:
"It suddenly occurred to me that there were still some classes that I hadn't pre-studied, so I'll go back to my bedroom to study first, and you can talk."
When she had finished speaking, she did not respond to Rogers's words, nor did she mention the matter of learning the craft, but hurried up the stairs to the bedroom.
"Isn't there a desk in the living room?" Rogers looked at the other party's back and sighed in confusion, and then sighed imperceptibly, lamenting that Aliana's evil might had accumulated to such a point.
But Rufia can endure it, he doesn't want to endure it, in the face of absolute strength, all suffering will come to naught.
Immediately, he used his real name to increase the power of his occult language, and the light in the room instantly became brighter.
"Rutgers Breed......" Alina's eyes narrowed unconsciously at the blinding light, and she said slowly in an inexplicable tone.
"Why do you suddenly dare to call me by my full name? It seems that I still need to teach you what etiquette is!
"Alina Devin! I've put up with you for a long time! Right now! Pay the penalty for your sins! ”
Rogers immediately released [Incomplete Praise], his expression full of determination, and his right hand thrust his cane into the floor, splashing a burst of wood chips in between.
He knew that if he didn't show his absolute strength, it would be impossible for Alina to truly recognize how big the gap was between the two at this moment.
In the long-planned ritual, in addition to the occult language and the [Time Travel Bonus], his body, spirit, and soul have all been increased far beyond normal promotion.
Even in terms of strength, he may not be able to completely crush Alina when he has not been accumulating [Incomplete Praise] for a long time, but there is a high probability that he can have room for resistance, no matter how bad it is, when he runs away, he will never be easily caught up again.
The Time Stop Bonus can be activated, but it can't be activated no more than twice a day, because even in everyday life, at least one should be saved in case of trouble.
It's a pity that the benefits of the ritual can't be completely controlled at will, so it's basically used to strengthen the companion bonus, his own real name, the spiral sword, and give the occult language the real mystery, otherwise he will definitely focus on his physique again, at least to the extent that it is enough to suppress Alina.
Wanderers raised his hand to Alina, wondering what kind of binding method he was going to bind the other party in a static second, when a prompt popped up in front of him.
[Alina has launched a weighing bonus for you, and the scales made of pure gold are displayed in the invisible void, and two uncertain fates are held on the weighing pans on both sides.] 】
[She has lifted the scale rod, and at this point, the weighing begins.] 】
"What's that?"
Before Rogers could stop time and space, he was a little confused by this information.
The Inspiration Bonus accelerated his thinking, causing him to constantly recall the information he knew about the game.
However, no matter how much he tried to recall, he couldn't find the slightest information about this bonus.
Suddenly, he suddenly remembered that it seemed that since he met Alina, a lot of unexpected things had been popping up on the other party's body.
But it doesn't matter, no matter how outrageous things are, in the static time and space, they are meaningless.
After the launch of the [Time Stop Bonus], everything is frozen in an instant, and the quiet and silent atmosphere is shrouded in things as far as the eye can see.
The light that shines down does not change in the slightest, and the faint brightness of the reflection of the dust also stops at the right time, and does not drift away in a certain direction.
"In the next second, I'm invincible!"
When Rogers walked towards Alina, his posture was full of calm, and the smile on his lips was extremely wanton.
"It's only been 0.3 seconds, and a second can be so long."
After feeling that his body could barely keep up with the accelerated thinking of [Enlightenment Bonus], Rutgers couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
[Your destiny sinks down, sinking to the land of raising people, and Alina's destiny rises upwards into the vast sky. 】
Suddenly, when he was walking, he saw this prompt box, and his steps unconsciously made a mistake, and he suddenly lost his balance and staggered forward.
Rogers' eyes showed a little confusion, he didn't expect that time and space had already stood still, and the other party's bonus could still be activated normally.
Could it be that this is acting on the self-perceived space-time, rather than the objective space-time of the present world......
His body slammed into the ground, and he tried to support himself with his hands, but his palms slid straight across the floor, unable to provide any support.
With a short, dull sound, he fell to the ground, and the [Time Stop Bonus] was lifted at this moment.
"So that's where your confidence comes from? But isn't it too short? Alina looked down at Rogers condescendingly, and spoke in a flat tone.
Rogers didn't respond to Aliana's words, he first wondered why the other party wasn't surprised by his perks at all, but without thinking deeply, he whispered, "Darkness." ”
Like a giant beast opening its hungry mouth, it quickly devoured the light around it, drowning everything in the infinite darkness in an instant.
Rogers reached out and summoned his staff, slowly got up with it, and continued, "Clean." ”
The dust that had been contaminated by the fall disappeared in an instant.
"There's one more chance, and we can't be careless."
After holding his breath and concentrating, he silently said in his heart, and when he summoned the magic guide book and the darkness subsided, he launched the [Time Stop Bonus] again.
When he took a stride in front of Alina, and a cowhide belt stretched out from the magic book to quickly tie Alina, another unexpected thing happened.
"You are not allowed to bully her!"
A little girl in a plain white dress jumps out of the dreamcatcher, with the same hair color as Rogus and a face similar to Aliana.
The little girl's left eye was closed, and under the right eyelid was an amber eye, and her face was full of wariness of Rogers.
"Are you able to move at this time? And the breath on your body......" Rogers' face showed a complicated expression, and he didn't know how to describe the current mood for a while, but said slightly:
"That's why it's because of you that Alina knows about my perks......"
The other party has the same aura as him, and it seems that he has inherited some of his abilities, and the most fundamental [Time Retrospective Bonus] that accompanies him seems to be among them.
It was only then that Rogers suddenly thought of a part of his ritual: space, creation, and destiny.
Time and space come from him, and the revelation of fate seems to be from Alina's [Lucky Bonus] bonus to get a glimpse, and finally the creation of occult language symbols, Alina also has a high degree of participation.
In addition, a few days ago, when Alina chatted with him, she once said that there are so many secret rituals, and there is no need to blindly choose sacrifices, which means that this guy most likely still has a wide variety of rituals.
Rogers inexplicably had a feeling that Alina might be able to fully reflect the reflection of that link, because the shadow demon in front of him could use imitation to replace his own time and space.
In this way, the symbols of time and space, creation and destiny, he and Alina can in fact have a share.
It is very likely that when she performed the ritual herself, Alina cooperated with some kind of secret ritual at the same time, such as the [Weighing Bonus] that can continue to operate in a static time and space, which is very wrong, and it is very likely to be related to the secret ritual.
and this shadow demon, who has not usurped himself, can inherit some of his abilities.
"At that time, the queen was too young to know all the gifts of fate, and she had already secretly marked the price......"
When Rogers pondered it all, a second passed again.
The glow from the ceiling was no longer bright, but slowly softened.
"What are you trying to do with the leash?" Alina's tone was calm and natural, and she spoke softly, conveying a sense of serenity with the tone of her voice.
However, when this pleasant voice sounded in Rogers' ears, he instantly tensed up, and his face quickly changed to a gentle and kind smile, and he used his magic power to manipulate the cow belt to instantly tie the magic book firmly, showing its use.
His eyes also softened a lot, revealing obvious kindness, and there was no trace of reluctance or falsehood in the corners of his mouth that were raised, and there was a sincerity and enthusiasm in his smile.
"It's really good, using the secret ritual to cooperate with my ritual can make this shadow demon inherit some of the abilities of the two of us.
"And it seems to be close to you, with its talent and potential, it can definitely grow into an excellent help, and its value may be higher than that dragon egg.
"I should say that it's really you, my smart Alina~"
Rogers looked at Alina with sincere eyes, his face full of admiration and admiration, and his tone full of sincerity and appreciation.
Seeing that Alina's face was still extremely calm, he opened his mouth again, and a series of words of praise flowed out just right.
Without waiting for Rogus to continue talking, Alina raised her hand to interrupt, and at the same time grabbed the Shadow Demon in front of her, and said solemnly: "Don't treat her as a commodity to judge casually, in front of this child, put away your mercenary appearance." ”
"Oh...... I understand that I really need to educate her well, and I am happy to devote some of my efforts so that she can truly inherit the wisdom of the sage.
"You see this little guy is really good-looking, especially these eyes, no more, no less, exactly two."
Rogers amiably stared at the Shadow Demon in front of him, with the gesture of an elder, speaking words of concern and praise.
However, when the Shadow Demon on the other side saw Rogess's kindness and heartiness, he did not have the slightest intimacy, but instead showed undisguised disregard on his little face.
"Are you done?" Alina waited until Rogers' voice was a little extinguished, and asked aloud with an unchanged expression.
[Alina has lifted the scale ......]
"Ah, no, not yet, Alina, you know my ......"
Rogers looked at the pop-up box again, and the way the other person opened his lips slightly, and his tongue gently slid over the edge of his lips from the inside out, and he put on a heartier smile, trying to continue to say more.
[Your destiny rises upwards into the vast sky, and Aliana's destiny sinks to the earth where people are raised. 】
Seeing the turn of fate as he wished, the already hearty smile on his face became more sincere and bright.
It will be updated normally today, and the amount owed during the New Year's Day will be made up from tomorrow. or2
