Chapter 430: The Spirit of All Things

"How?"

After Aurora hung up the phone, Jiang Chanji asked.

She shook her head slightly, "I'm not sure yet, she said she would think about it and call me later." ”

"That's good, if you don't categorically refuse, it means that there is a play. Jiang Chanji said.

Aurora was suspicious, "That being said...... It always felt weird, and I couldn't understand why she didn't refuse. ”

"There must be a reason for her, or she's just being idle, or it's itchy when she sees a powerful guy, I don't think there's too much to think about, as long as she's willing to help, no matter what the purpose, as long as she can complete the task of containing No. 15, let's just pay more attention to her, I don't believe that she can make any waves in front of so many of us. ”

Jiang Chanji didn't bother to think about it, even if Leila had any plans, as long as she didn't hurt them, it didn't matter if both sides took what they needed.

"That's it. Aurora thought about it, and now they were looking to Layla for a tricky problem, and they weren't qualified to pick and choose.

"Anyway...... I think I heard the cries of orangutans on the phone, and there were more than one, ......one after another," she wondered, "is she visiting the zoo?"

Maybe behind others she is a person who likes animals, is enthusiastic about public welfare, and does good deeds without leaving a name, and is currently volunteering with animals...... This is the so-called contrast moe. Jiang Chanji said half-jokingly, it was pointless to comfort Aurora and let her stop guessing.

However, the situation of the front side of the person and the back side of the person does exist, and it is very common, the typical example is the online world and the real world, in reality, a serious Internet is a sand sculpture is not very normal?

Sometimes playing a different version of yourself in another environment can help relieve your stress, or you can be one side in front of someone you don't know, and another side in front of your best friend or best friend, which is also normal, and although Layla doesn't deal with them, she may be another popular person in front of her best friend...... Or conversely, after many serial killers are caught, neighbors and colleagues are at a loss and say that he is an honest man who usually helps his neighbors and colleagues, how can he kill people?

Given that they are not familiar with Layla, especially Aurora has inherent prejudices, it is basically impossible to guess Layla's mind, so there is no need to guess, take one step at a time.

Just as they were talking without a word, Aurora's cell phone rang, and she answered in seconds.

"Hello?"

"I've thought about it, since it's my dear sister who spoke, if I refuse, wouldn't it hurt the feelings of our sisters and let the rest of the family see the joke......"

Aurora didn't believe a word, and frowned, "So?"

"I've got it all to say, of course I'm here to help...... Well, I have a friend who might come with me, and she's interested in something. ”

Aurora secretly scolded her for having friends out of nothing, and that she must have wanted something for herself, but pushed it to a friend who didn't exist.

"What do you want? Tell me straight, if it's too much......"

Actually, my friend wants to see the latest edition of your school's "Introduction to Extraordinary Abilities", which is the latest edition, including the first and second volumes, so it's not too difficult for you to get this, right?"

"That's it?"

Aurora is unbelievable, ordinary people can't get this textbook, but it's not a secret to the students in the school, this textbook is sent to students during class, and then collected after class, and will not let students take out of the school, and it is said that there is a watermark on every page, if you take a picture of the page with a mobile phone and pass it on, you can trace back to who circulated it through the secret note, and when everyone takes a public class together, who holds a mobile phone and keeps taking pictures of the textbook, others can see it.

Don't let the textbook circulate, because you don't want ordinary people to see it that causes rumors, or that ordinary people find loopholes to deal with transcendentals, such as the iron law that prohibits transcendents from harming ordinary people for no reason, this is like legitimate defense, there is a lot of room for maneuver, once it is used by someone with a heart, it will put Momiji Academy in a dilemma...... Of course, there is no impermeable wall under the sky, and many ordinary people have heard of this iron law, but after all, they have only heard about it, and they have not seen it in black and white.

"Of course, when will I feel sorry for you, sister? Okay, let's talk about this first, the phone is hot, I will arrive as soon as possible, tomorrow...... At most, the day after tomorrow, I'll see you then~ I'm sure you can prepare the teaching materials before my plane lands~" Layla hung up the phone.

Aurora stared at the phone in her hand, as if she didn't recognize it.

"She agreed?" Jiang Chanji asked.

"Sort of......

"That'...... Did she make any conditions?"

"The conditions are there, it's just a trivial matter, she wants to get a copy of the school's textbooks, I can handle it, but she mentioned that she will come with a friend, I don't know if it's true or not......"

Jiang Chanji didn't care, "If it's here to help, of course, the more people there are, the better, anyway, it's all said, and you'll know when you meet when the time comes." ”

Aurora looked at the time, her underground ice spike had been preliminarily tested, although she still wanted to further improve, but firstly, she wanted to find teaching materials for Layla, and secondly, her ability itself was limited.

After using her ice spikes once in a certain location, the groundwater has frozen, and it will not melt for a short time, so she can use it a second time, because she uses the volume expansion caused by the freezing of the water to "squeeze" the ice spikes out of the ground.

Taking a step back, even if the ice in the ground melts in a short period of time, because the passage has already been formed, even if there is another process of freezing by water, the ice spikes will still emerge from the surface through the channel that has already formed, and the position of the surface will not change much - imagine that the enemy or beast will deliberately stay in place and wait for you to stab you a second time?

So she just told Jiang Chanji that the ice spikes are like the arc of Teacher Wang Yefei and them, it is basically difficult to control the direction of the ice spikes, they will choose the soft and weak soil to drill out of the ground, and if there is a ready-made channel, they will definitely drill out of the ready-made channel.

If she wants to try again, she will have to change the location, so she will try it here today and talk about it later, just by the way, to think about whether there is any way to make up for this limitation.

"I'm going back to school now, what about you?" she just asked politely, for he had come on a flying horse and didn't need to ride back in her car.

"Before Layla arrives, I'm going to explore the path and step on the spot first. He said, "We have roughly mastered the hiding place of No. 15 and Zhao Man, but we are not completely sure, so we must find a way to confirm it, and then we will finish the battle, otherwise we will give Zhao Man a chance to escape...... It's hard to find them anymore. "Qishu.com

"Who's going with you?" She was surprised, and worried for his safety, although her abilities were not suitable for this kind of reconnaissance operation, was it too lonely to go alone?

"Don't worry, I'll be careful, just confirm their existence from afar, and won't let them see me, it's not good if there are too many people like this. ”

He called Frigga and said, "Sister Aurora, I'll go first." ”

"Be careful. ”

Jiang Chanji stepped on the horseback and left under the eyes of Aurora. He actually planned to go after lunch, but he didn't expect Layla to agree so happily, considering that Layla has a private jet, and if she wants to come, she will be able to fly over soon, so he has to hurry up and act.

......

"It's all talked. ”

Layla shook the satellite phone and walked over to Luisa.

In order to avoid suspicion just now, Luisa walked away for a distance and let Layla call alone, she didn't hear what Layla said specifically, but seeing Layla's smile when she called, she asked enviously: "You have a good relationship with your cousin, right?"

"Feelings...... Haha, of course, we're cousins, haha!" Layla laughed, "but my cousin is an iceberg beauty, only in this kind of ...... When you call, you will be very gentle, and when you really meet, you will deliberately put on a straight face and say some cold words, so don't be surprised when the time comes. ”

"Sounds like a shy person. ”

Luisa's mind had already sketched the appearance of a lady who lived in the boudoir and was accustomed to hiding her shyness with cold words.

"Really?" Layla forced a smile, "She heard that I would bring a friend with me, so she welcomed it, and I heard that you were interested in the textbooks of Momiji Academy, so she asked Ying to help you get one." ”

"Won't it bother her too much?" Luisa said in surprise.

"Why? Besides, our cousins have such a good relationship, what is this little favor...... You don't have to worry about it at all. ”

Layla was in a good mood, beckoned her bodyguards and mercenaries, and prepared to return the same way with Luisa.

The leader of one of the bodyguards quietly pulled her aside and pointed to the scepter in Luisa's hand, worried for her and his own safety.

Luisa's scepter was ornate by primitive tribal standards, inlaid with raw unrefined gold and unpolished diamonds, a symbol of her high sacrifice, but the problem was that the scepter was topped with a skull, and it did not appear to be a skeleton of a monkey or an orangutan, but of a human...... It's scary.

Before Layla came to the rainforest to explore the secrets, she had heard more than once that the witchcraft tribe was a cannibal, and she was skeptical of this rumor, so this time in addition to the bodyguards, she spent money to buy mercenaries, not that she could rely on these useless men to resist the witchcraft tribe, but in case of an accident, she could use these guys to drag the witchcraft tribe and slip away first.

After arriving in the area, she asked the guide, who said that he had heard similar rumors, but he thought it should not be true, he lived in a village near the rainforest, and had not heard of the witchcraft tribe attacking the villagers of this village or other villages, and there had been several cases of villagers entering the rainforest to hunt and being rescued by the witchcraft tribe's huntresses, and did not harm the villagers, let alone eat the villagers.

Layla judged that the credibility of the rumors was very low, no matter how much the witchcraft tribe was also a member of the transcendent world, if it was a pleasure to eat people, even if it was far away, there would always be nosy people like the Red Leaf Academy to intervene, and the hermitage probably wouldn't sit idly by, and once these iron-headed guys decided something, even if they would pay a heavy price, they would probably go on an expedition to Africa.

It's a pity that the Ninja Academy's app can't be used recently, otherwise it would be easy for her to find out the conclusive information through the ninja.

After confirming that the high priest of the witchcraft tribe was her former classmate Louisa, she didn't believe in the rumors of cannibalism, but this scepter was so eye-catching that even if she pretended not to see it, they would definitely ask when they met Aurora in the East.

Layla smiled and walked up to Luisa, pretending to be casual and asked, "Luisa, you scepter...... It's very special, when you're on the road, isn't it better to put it away first?"

"Yes, I forgot about it. Luisa nodded understandingly, "Are you startled?"

"It's not like I'm scared, but ...... Some surprises are there. Layla was very good at knocking on the side, and did not take the initiative to ask, but said, "I didn't expect you to take ...... Is this the rule of the tribe?"

"Yes and no. Luisa looked down at the skull, "I almost out when I first saw it, and it took me a long time to get used to it. ”

"I heard the chief say that a long time ago, before the supernatural ability appeared, and the witchcraft tribe was still a primitive tribe on the verge of death, there was a tradition left over from tens of thousands of years ago - the tribe believed that the head contained the soul, so when the tribe members died, they would leave the head behind, put it at home or carry it on their bodies, this is to remember the dead companion, and it is said that they can also inherit the courage of the dead companion. Luisa explained.

"Oh, I see. ”

Layla nodded with relief, this tradition is easy to understand, in fact, it is equivalent to modern people placing the urn of their deceased relatives at home, which is also a sustenance of grief, but in a different form, there is no need to make a fuss.

"Another reason for that...... You don't need me to tell me, do you?" Luisa added suddenly.

"Huh?"

Layla was stunned, "What is another reason?"

Luisa was surprised, "Don't you know?"

"Don't know what?" Layla was dazed.

"Source bones, you spend a lot of money to buy source bones from transcendent animals, don't you know that human bones have the same effect? No, human bones have a stronger effect, isn't this normal? After all, people are the spirits of all things, especially the heads that host human souls, even after death, the souls ...... In other words, consciousness will not completely dissipate, and the residual source energy in the skull can make us stronger. ”

Luisa rubbed her palm on the skull, "And I seem to be more efficient at absorbing source energy from skulls than others. ”
