The news of victory was like a breeze on a hot summer day, sweeping across the Montita grassland. This cool wind brought laughter and relief to the people of the grassland.
The Kaoqi people withdrew from the Montita grassland as agreed, and the two squadrons of the Unicorn Corps followed them until they reached the border of Montita and Fertilan.
The other Unicorn Squadrons were busy dismantling the countless fortresses scattered on the grassland left behind by the Kaoqi people.
This was originally a very tiring job, but Enleco happened to have a lot of thunderballs in his hands that were ready but not used.
Dig a deep hole diagonally and insert a thunderball into it.
The violent explosion, although not enough to level everything, at least made those trenches and fortresses no longer usable.
Moreover, this also prevented countless hot metal fragments from causing huge fires in the sky. Even in the storm, the fire caused by the golden thunderball was so difficult to extinguish.
If the grassland is ignited now, the fire that spreads may engulf countless lands.
Except for the row of fortresses on the border that have been preserved, the other fortresses have been dug into shallow pits.
They will become new lakes on the grassland, bringing vitality and prosperity to the Montita grassland.
As for the fortresses built by the Montita people themselves, they have been preserved. Enleco can no longer remember who made the suggestion to move the tribes on the grassland that made huge sacrifices in the war to those fortresses. nearby.
A fortress can accommodate thousands of soldiers, but the population of most steppe tribes is far from reaching this number.
These fortresses and the fertile land around them are enough to restore the vitality and vitality of these tribes that have suffered heavy losses.
Some people even regret that they should not demolish the fortresses built by the Kaoqi people. Those fortresses can be used to house countless tribes.
After experiencing the baptism of war, Montita Grassland showed even more vitality.
As tribes from far away continued to flow towards Grant City, and as the fortresses around Grant City were filled with people, the Montita Kingdom, which had enjoyed a brief period of peace, actually bloomed with unprecedented brilliance. Fortresses rose from the ground, and trenches surrounded Grant City like ripples.
Some of these trenches were treated as trenches, while others were dug extremely deep, and the walls and bottom were magically transformed into rocks.
These wide and thick trenches will become new lakes and will bring prosperity to the herdsmen living near the fortress. For a while, the Montita people seemed to have completely forgotten the pain the war had brought to them.
This once puzzled Enleco, but the little girl Lila gave him a clear answer.
"The Montita people also have emotions and feel sad for their dead relatives and companions, but because of the Montita grassland, the moment of death will come to everyone. From the day we become sensible, we have the ability to face it. The consciousness of death.”
"Whether it is our own death or the death of others, it will not make us forget life because of sadness and overindulge in grief. I am afraid that the Kingdom of Montita has long been destroyed by wolves, storms and wars."
The little girl's words once again shocked Enleco. He had never thought that even such a little girl in Montita Prairie would bear such a heavy burden.
Defying death requires unimaginable courage, but everyone in Montita has such courage. Enleco can't tell whether this is Montita's luck or their suffering.
Enleco was really happy to be able to return to the City in the Cloud. For some reason, even Chris, who had always frightened him, made him feel the urge to hug her.
Of course, this was just an impulse. Enleco didn't have that much courage after all.
Perhaps because he could not express his joy through intimate actions as compensation, Enleco could only use exchanges on their respective progress in magic research to shorten the distance between them.
What made Enleco feel embarrassed and helpless was that he was shocked to find that this was the most appropriate way to get close to the crazy eldest princess.
However, what surprised Enleco the most was what Chris had achieved while he was away from the Cloud City.
In fact, Enleco never thought that ordinary people could master the power of magic in this way. Looking at the old men floating in the air and the strange device that looked like a group of spiders crawling all over the body, Enleco felt incredible.
He took a set of devices from the table next to him. The thing consisted of four parts. Each part was like a huge spider with countless small spiders. The bodies of these spiders were a piece of black agate.
Enleco knows very well that agate is the best raw material besides cat's eye for making spiritual magic items.
Black agate is set on a sterling silver base, but the surface of the sterling silver turns pitch black as if it has touched sulfur.
Just like a real spider, the sterling silver inlaid with black agate stretches out eight thin and long limbs. Although those limbs are also made of pitch black sterling silver, they have strange toughness and elasticity.
Among the four largest spiders, one of them just grabs the human head tightly. The part of the spider's body that is close to it is exactly between the eyebrows; the other big spider is crawling on the neck, and its eight jointed limbs appear Especially slender: the two huge spiders at the end lie on the back of the hand.
The slender jointed limbs pass through the gaps between the fingers and tightly wrap the palm; other places are connected by countless similar looking but much smaller spiders.
In short, it looks really weird and inexplicable.
"A three-dimensional magic circle?" Enleco asked. Although he could see the mystery at a glance, it was still better to speak with an open mind in front of Chris.
"Don't act stupid, you can't just see this." Chris said coldly, but there was a hint of approval in her eyes.
This made Enleco feel more at ease. He glanced at the strange device again, gently stroked the black agate and said: "You have no intention of making ordinary people become real magicians, because you will inevitably encounter One of the most troublesome things is that the fundamental principle of how to allow ordinary people to gather magic power and convert ordinary magic energy into magic power has not been fully understood yet."
"Because of this, you just allow ordinary people to use magic energy. This thing should be used in conjunction with the nuclear crystal."
Having said this, Enleco glanced at the tightly held hands of the experimenters floating in the air. Obviously, the real reason for them to float in the air was there.
"However, I still can't guess how the mental power of ordinary people can be amplified to such an extent, and how to control the mental power to such a precise level?" Enleco looked at the experimenters, puzzled. He asked in disbelief.
Because he saw those experimenters suspended in the air very stably. This is not something ordinary magicians can do. Even some mid-level magicians who specialize in wind magic are casting the simplest wind magic. Sometimes, there will be some ups and downs.
After all, humans cannot have the ability to control magic power with such precision as elves.
"Hahaha, this is my genius invention, naturally it is not something that a dabbler like you can understand." Chrissy said proudly.
When she just opened her mouth, she saw the experimenters covering their ears with their hands in panic.
Apparently they had already experienced the power of Chrissy's shrill laughter, so they naturally developed the ability to react quickly.
Although Enleco also wanted to do the same thing as them, neither he nor the little girl Lila next to him had the courage. The two of them could only endure until Chrissy regained her composure.
"Didn't I ever say that electric shock can produce powerful force in the body? And you have also experienced electric shock training. You know very well that meditating in a state of electric shock can greatly enhance the strength of your mental power."
"It's just that training a person to meditate is also a matter of patience, so I directly give them appropriate electric shocks to cause them to produce specific mental fluctuations, and then use a special magic circle to replace the effect of meditation."
"In fact, this can also be regarded as a way of meditation. The only difference is that there are only a few fixed ways of meditation that every ordinary person can have."
"This is very strange. Ordinary people who have been reshaped will lose the possibility of shaping another way of meditation. The number of ways of meditation that can be possessed seems to vary from person to person, not to age, gender or strength. related."
"Until now, I have not been able to find out the rules. I only know that some people can have up to seven or eight meditation methods, while most people only have two. There are also two idiots who only have one, but they are definitely in the minority. , So far, no character has been found who cannot be mentally shaped." Chris explained in detail.
"What kind of meditation can these people do? What kind of magic can they cast?" Enleco asked impatiently.
"I have no intention of letting them use magic. Whether they are goblins or elves, they don't know any magic. The ability of goblins to control the will of other creatures and the ability of elves to manipulate magical elements are nothing to them. Magic is a natural ability."
"I once saw a legend on a stone tablet. According to the legend, the creation of humans by the gods was a complete accident. Originally humans were created as ordinary creatures, but even these creators have no way of knowing why we are. Possessing the ability to create was originally an ability only possessed by gods and demons, and this fact has puzzled the gods for a long time."
"However, at first, humans did not know how to use magic. Although they were the darlings of the gods, they were far weaker than the demonic creatures created by the gods. Fortunately, humans had creativity and quickly learned to cooperate and gather together. People who are together become stronger and stronger, and can even challenge those much more powerful demonic creatures."
"The gods are not very concerned about people's growing strength, but this has attracted the attention of the demons, because among the demonic creatures hunted by humans, a considerable number of demonic creatures were created by the demons."
"Weak humans become the objects of observation by the demons. The final result is that the demons come up with a plan to lead humans to them."
"Your soul master must know this history better than anyone else, because that guy is the initiator of this matter. As a gift to lure humans to join the demon clan, that guy taught humans how to use magic. Because of this, we To perform magic, you must recite incantations and meditate. You must know that reciting incantations is a characteristic of demons performing magic."
"Belonging to chaos, they can exert any kind of power and gather any kind of energy. Of course, the sacred magical energy from the gods is the only exception."
"In a sense, humans are indeed very similar to the demons, but after all, humans are not creatures created by the demons. It is impossible for everyone to meet the conditions for being able to use magic."
"Because of this, the number of magicians has never been very large. Whether it was during the war between gods and demons or during the heyday of the Magic Empire, the largest proportion has never exceeded one percent. Because of this, I plan to circle back to humans. The starting point before learning magic.”
"Not long after you left, I have been thinking, if I take the place of the gods, how will I give humans the ability to cast magic?"
"The method of the demons is definitely not feasible, because the gods themselves do not use spells. The things sealed in the brains of the little things are obviously the last gifts left by the gods to us. From these gifts, we can completely see the power of the gods. Characteristics of magic.”
"There are almost no spells in the little thing's memory. Instead, there are countless knowledge about magic circles and magic items. Especially among them is the original 'Telbot'. The original method was to transform the human body. Only then can you gain this ability.”
“This incident gave me an inspiration and the source of inspiration for all of this.”
Chrissy's words made Enleco silent. In fact, he believed the rumor deeply.
Because in Chris's laboratory, Most once told him another story, which was the truth about the war between gods and demons.
Now it seems that these two stories can be connected seamlessly.
Perhaps as Chris said, what she is doing now is just the work that the gods missed back then.
However, Her Royal Highness the Princess once again regarded herself as an equal to the gods, which indeed made Enleco a little unbearable.
"Besides floating in the air, what else can these people do?" Enleco asked.
"These Montita people are obviously more related to earth magic. Even those with the lowest qualifications can have the ability to 'attach armor', but most of them can also control some other magic, build an earth wall, etc. There is absolutely no problem, you just need someone like this right now."
"What makes me feel strange is that the ability to control seems to have nothing to do with the magic level. There are a few strange guys who can control the 'Quicksand Technique'. Although this is not an advanced magic, the magicians who can cast it are at least He has the title of a mid-level magician. It seems that if you want to figure out this matter, you have to ask Cecelia for some more experimental products."
"Except for those who can control earth magic, there are the largest number of experimental subjects who can control water magic. But the strange thing is that no one can control ice magic. I will get rid of these useless guys. Go help An Qili make magic water."
"I have kept all the people who can control the wind here. One of them can control the 'Flying Technique'. As for the others, they only have the ability to control 'Levitation' and 'Wind Wings', but they also make me feel... It’s strange that they can’t control a simple magic like Wind Knife.”
"There is only one blacksmith who can control fire magic. I found a group of blacksmiths for this purpose, but still no success. The blacksmith can control the 'Fire Wall', but it looks like just a pillar of fire. It also gives me a headache. Yes, he actually can't throw a fireball."
"It seems that the magic taught by your soul master is not very effective for this method. Maybe those elves can use magic as a reference. Maybe I should go back to Keqin Island and do it by the way. Come and study it with an elf."
Chrissy's words made Enleco shudder. He couldn't help but think of his experience of being deceived in the laboratory and narrowly escaped death.
Seeing Enleco's face changed drastically, Kris naturally guessed what was going on. She asked disapprovingly: "How is your progress? I want to know how the production of the 'artificial uterus' is going. I am almost unable to do it." There is something parasitic in my body."
Chrissy's voice became louder and louder, and the Montita experimenters even began to tremble. Obviously, they also knew that this crazy woman was on the verge of going crazy.
As experimenters, they naturally know how terrifying a witch who loses control after going berserk can be.
"I have created a prototype device based on the little thing's memory, but I just don't have time to study this device." Enleco answered cautiously.
Fortunately for him, the witch's anger gradually subsided.
"You'd better not be lazy, otherwise..." Chris glared at Enleco, who involuntarily took several steps back.
This has almost become Enleco's subconscious reaction. However, after calming down a little, he suddenly discovered that Chrissy did not explicitly say the word "punishment" this time, which frightened him. Obviously Cecelia The gentle offensive I taught myself worked.
When thinking of Cecilia, Enleco remembered another thing. "Your Royal Highness, the wise eldest princess, do you know anything about the 'real phantom'?" Enleco asked quickly.
"'Real Phantom'? Cecilia's trick? You should ask Cecelia for advice on this matter. Why do you think of asking me?" Chris said coldly and disapprovingly. Obviously, as long as the matter is related to Cecilia, she will It made her feel very uncomfortable.
"Without this move, Cecelia would have never been able to obtain the title of Great Mage." Chris added, obviously feeling a little resentful about the title of Great Mage.
"In this battle, Trode's ability was actually the nemesis of the 'True Phantom'. What is even more unimaginable is that Trode seemed to have the ability to 'devour'. He could turn into smoke. , draining away the magical energy and transforming into smoke, his body will be unable to be harmed by any other magic except the power of sacred magic."
"Cecilia's 'True Phantom', even if all four separated phantoms were destroyed, she could summon new phantoms, but for some reason, the side whose energy was sucked away by Trod The crystal mirror, even if it summons a phantom again, will always remain the same as it was after the energy was sucked away."
What Enleco didn't expect was that upon hearing the news, Chris immediately burst out into a burst of sharp laughter.
The shrieking laughter was like a storm once again, sweeping through the laboratory. Caught off guard, everyone felt that they had been severely traumatized.
After the creepy scream attack passed, Chrissy said excitedly: "In other words, Cecelia's current strength has been greatly reduced. This guy is not qualified to be called a great mage at all now."
Another series of high-pitched laughter rang out. Fortunately, this time everyone was prepared.
After Chrissy's excitement gradually subsided, Enleco said cautiously: "Do you still care about the title of Great Mage? With your strength, Her Royal Highness, no one can compare with you. The title of Mage is even a constraint for you."
"Even Cecilia knows everything about this matter, so she asked me to ask you to help her repair the damaged crystal mirror."
"I know very well that you disdain her at all, but after all, we are on the same front now, not to mention the 'True Phantom', which is known as the second strongest skill in water magic. You must also want to know the secret of it. .”
"Okay, since it's Cecilia who begged me, just do it reluctantly." Chris nodded slightly and said.
A strange-shaped magical device is placed in the center of the laboratory.
This device is surrounded by four huge crystal mirrors, but one of them seems to be cast in a shadow.
"So that's it." Chris only glanced at it and said disapprovingly: "These crystal mirrors must be polished with the lin pieces on the silver dragon's body. It turns out that the lin pieces on the silver dragon's body are, It also has this effect. I should have taken the opportunity to search for some experimental materials from her body. It is a pity to let this opportunity go in vain."
As she said this, Kris suddenly realized, "Are you planning to let me find that dragon? Peel off another piece of dragon lin from her body?"
"The rumored ancient dragon of wisdom has been subdued by you." Cecilia said with a smile, trying her best to show her privacy.
"The so-called rumors must have come from Enleco's mouth." Chris glared at the young apprentice, "But you should also know that the relationship between me and that dragon is not harmonious, not to mention, I am now We simply don’t know where the dragon is hiding, so instead of looking for that dragon, we might as well do some research and create a replacement crystal mirror.”
"Dragon Lin is hard and strong, and can be used to make more useful things. Since Trode can crack the 'real phantom' and damage the Long Lin that makes the mirror, it is better to dismantle the precious Long Lin." If we replace it with cheaper materials, the effect may be far better than Long Lin's."
Speaking of this, Chris ordered Enleco: "Go find the little thing. I want to ask her why she has to use Longlin. If you know the reason, you can conduct experiments and find alternative materials." As she spoke, Chris gently caressed the shining silver piece.
Although she looked like she couldn't put it down, she kept talking about Long Lin's shortcomings.
"This thing is much dimmer than a metal mirror. It is really not suitable for reflecting light. No wonder the phantom you projected is blurry and cannot be considered a real image at all."
"In my opinion, if you change the material to more reflective silver, maybe the projected impression can be exactly the same as yours. That would be a perfect 'real phantom'. You can use it to please your husband. .”
Cecelia didn't feel angry at all about Chris's words. She smiled and said: "This is a good idea. Before that, I just thought of using it to conduct magic experiments. With four clones, we can conduct it at the same time. The four tests, plus the Holy Grail, can continuously restore my magic power. Because of this, even though I don't have the talent like you, I can still make progress beyond ordinary people."
Cecelia gently threw out the sweet bait, and she had plenty of ways to deal with Chris.
Just as Cecilia expected, Chris, who originally only cared about the extremely bright silver dragon lin, suddenly focused on the magic circle.
Cecilia could clearly see that Chris's eyes were flashing with light.
"I never like to take advantage of others. I originally planned to use the secret of the 'True Phantom' as a thank you gift." Cecilia said leisurely.
Looking at Chrissy's excited expression and impatient look, she knew this crazy girl well and was almost convinced that after the repair, the magic circle would be covered with crystal mirrors in all directions.
In Grant City, in the narrow alley, there was an extremely old middle-aged man, walking slowly on the narrow walkway.
The alley was quiet except for the children who were happily crawling around in the alley.
Coming out of the alley, the middle-aged man once again saw the familiar scene. The street was decorated as if it were a festival. There were people singing and dancing everywhere. The petals of wild orchids exuding a faint fragrance were scattered all over the sky. .
Except for the tall, thick, rolling, mountain-like city walls surrounding it, everything is exactly the same as before.
The middle-aged man smiled bitterly and walked towards the distance. In his memory, there was a trading house there that specialized in supplying clay for making porcelain to the City in the Clouds.
The middle-aged man checked his clothes for the last time. He looked like a coolie and should be able to deceive others.
In fact, he is no different from a real coolie. The legendary figure who was so arrogant and respected by all Montita people has long since ceased to exist.
The middle-aged man subconsciously touched his neck. There was a deep and wide scar on the right side of his neck. Touching this scar reminded him once again of the thrilling duel and the desperate struggle. fight.
This is a scar, a souvenir left by the paladin of the Kingdom of Sophie.
He once vowed to give that guy the same reward.
This wish was about to come true, but what made him regretful was that he could not personally deliver a fatal blow to his opponent.
The middle-aged man slowly put down his hand, raised his head slightly and looked into the distance. The white city in the clouds was still exactly the same as before.
However, after many years, he seemed to still be able to smell the bloody smell in the air, as if his tribe, his relatives, his wife and children had been slaughtered, right in front of his eyes, within twenty years. , as if just for a moment.
However, the former glory is gone.
The middle-aged man slowly walked forward again. He once again got into the alley next to him. He could hear singing and laughing everywhere, and everywhere he could hear the Montita people's unique bold and unrestrained shouts. The tune sings the song of victory.
The middle-aged man was crawling around in the alley, but he was not wandering around aimlessly. Along the way, he was looking for signs, a symbol that only he knew.
Following those signs, the middle-aged man came to a very lively street.
There are shops on both sides of the street, with everything from exquisite porcelain to iron tools used by Rui Na. There are many pedestrians coming and going, many of whom look like the middle-aged man, who are dusty and come from afar.
Next to a narrow alley, marked with that special mark, he squeezed sideways into the narrow alley.
This alley is very short, located between two rows of shops. But even in such a small place, there are rows of houses built.
The lanes in front of those houses can only allow one person to pass through. What is surprising is that there are actually people living in such a dilapidated lane.
The doors to several rooms were open, and the owners of the rooms were sitting in the doorways chatting.
There are also those businessmen who regard this secluded alley as a venue for discussing big business deals.
The middle-aged man was obviously very familiar with Grant City, and he looked like a standard Montita. Therefore, no one paid special attention to his figure. The only exception was the appearance of a businessman standing on the street. The middle-aged man seemed to feel that someone was paying attention to him. He stopped and glanced at the street entrance.
The two of them nodded in agreement.
The businessman pointed to a room behind him, turned around and walked in.
The middle-aged man looked around and saw that there was no one around. There were only a few children chasing and playing in the distance, and he quickly ducked into the room.
The house was very narrow inside, with a small window open high on the wall made of earth. The cover of the window was supported by a wooden stick, and the sunlight came in from the half-open window and shone on the corner of the wall.
There was only an earthen platform in the house, and a rough blanket was spread on the earthen platform. There is a faint water line at the foundation of the earth platform, which is obviously caused by being soaked in rain for many years.
When the businessman saw the middle-aged man walking into the house, he quickly closed the door, took a slender bamboo pole from the edge of the wall, and pushed down the window cover. The room immediately became dark.
"You're finally back. If you came back five or six years ago, there would still be a lot of risks. The news has become much less popular in the past few years." The businessman lowered his voice and said.
"Is there anyone in the city in the clouds to help?" the middle-aged man also lowered his voice and said.
"I'm afraid I can't count on it. When the people from Stryer County fled here, there were indeed a few informants who followed them into the Cloud City. But unfortunately, these people were isolated, and it was difficult for even me to follow them. They contacted me. I plan to take the risk to go up there again recently to see if I can connect with them, but you'd better not have high expectations for this." The businessman said, telling the middle-aged man everything in detail.
"Is it safe here?" the middle-aged man asked.
"Don't worry, this place is relatively remote, and many tribes have moved in recently. People living nearby don't know each other very well." The businessman said easily.
"How do you usually get in there?" the middle-aged man asked. "I sell salt, sugar and vegetable oil, and I have a pretty good relationship with the guards. Whenever I go to the market, I bring some things to sell, and no one stops me at all. By the way, every time I go there, there are always Why don't you bring two guys up with me this time?" the businessman suggested.
"No, don't tie everyone together. If the boat capsizes, we are all done. I have already arranged this matter. You don't need to worry about it at all. There is only one thing you need to do, and that is It's to help me collect intelligence and deliver news from far away." The middle-aged man said decisively.
"By the way, there is a package delivered from afar. I guess it is for you." The businessman said cautiously.
"Have you taken it apart and looked at that thing?" Suddenly, two cold lights flashed in the darkness.
Looking at that cold gaze, the businessman felt trembling all over, and even breathing became extremely difficult.
"The things were stuffed in melons and fruits and shipped to me, so I had to peel off the fruits that sealed them. It was not that I intentionally wanted to know the secret." The businessman said tremblingly, "However, I'm worried that I won't be able to bring that thing into the Cloud City. There are magicians guarding the Cloud City at all times. They can sense this thing. A few days ago, there were several unicorn captains who hid it secretly. This thing was captured, and I heard that everyone was severely whipped fifty times and is still in jail." The businessman leaned close to the middle-aged man and whispered in his ear.
"I had no intention of bringing these things into the City in the Cloud. Even if I put them here, I would have to bury them underground. Unless my target comes down from the City in the Cloud, I will not use these at all. Something." The middle-aged man said coldly.
"Then I will bring those things here tonight. To be honest, it scares me to put them there. Although I also buried them underground, who knows whether those magicians can detect them? .”
The middle-aged man did not feel the slightest anger at the businessman's cowardice, because he knew very well that for them, this place was indeed full of dangers. To be able to quietly lurk here for nearly twenty years, the seemingly cowardly person in front of him was undoubtedly Far stronger than anyone who claims to be a warrior.
Gently patting the businessman's shoulder, the middle-aged man sighed and said slowly: "Everything is about to end. The day to clear the grievances of our relatives is coming soon. For this day, you have waited so long. For a long time, could it be that when you are about to achieve your goal, you shrink back?"
The businessman shook his head repeatedly and said: "How could I shrink back? Over the years, I have woken up from nightmares countless times, and I saw exactly the same scene every time."
"My whole family fell in a pool of blood, and my children wailed in the flames. Isn't this blood feud enough to expel the fear in my heart? There is only one thing I'm afraid of, and that is that this mission will fail. .Although those gadgets are extremely powerful, they are also the biggest hidden danger that exposes the mission. Neither you nor I have much understanding of those things."
The middle-aged man said coldly: "Don't worry, I don't know anything about magic. The Duke taught me a new ability. Now I have not only a set of martial arts, but also half a martial arts skill." A magician."
When he said the last sentence, the middle-aged man let out a chilling sneer, and the strong murderous aura filled the room.
"You'd better be careful. In the past twenty years, your opponent has also made great progress. She is no longer the little girl she used to be. Her reputation as a great magician is absolutely worthy of her name. . Moreover, in addition to her, your target this time is also Sophie's little forbidden spell mage. If the information I have collected is correct, this guy's martial arts skills may be comparable to yours. 1st update What's more, whenever Cecilia appears in public, her son will definitely follow her. If my eyesight is correct, that boy may have become your strong enemy."
In the darkness, the middle-aged man nodded slightly, and in a low tone, he said slowly: "I know about this matter, and that's why I took action personally."
Having said this, the middle-aged man patted the businessman on the shoulder again, "Go back first and bring those things to me at night. In the future, unless you have some important information or news from afar, don't run here often, so as not to His identity was exposed and all his previous efforts were wasted.”
Having said this, the middle-aged man gently opened the door.
The businessman nodded, looked outside, and walked out of the door when no one was paying attention.
After closing the door and bolting it, the middle-aged man lowered his voice and said, "You can come out now, Mr. Cooperator."
As the words fell, the oil lamp that was originally placed next to the earth platform suddenly burst into flames.
The big oil lamp casts a hazy and dim light on the wall. In the dim light, a human face was reflected.
"Have you contacted the informant lurking in the city?" said the face reflected in the light. "Yes, everything is going well, but I still have to find a way to sneak into the Cloud City." The middle-aged man said slowly. "When can we get something like that?" Human Face asked.
"Tonight." The middle-aged man replied briefly.
"You can arrange it now. Once the arrangement is completed, I will move the other end of the chakra to you." The human face said calmly.
"By the way, if you have nothing to do, don't disturb me. Maintaining the balance of chakra is a very difficult thing, and I have to always worry about being discovered by the Montita people." The human face warned.
The middle-aged man didn't make any answer. He just stretched out his fingers and snuffed out the dim gun. Although the room was dark, the middle-aged man still accurately drew the magic circle on the ground. A broken and rusty brazier was pulled out from a corner of the room. The rust was so thick that it almost broke when touched.
The middle-aged man searched for a long time, but could not find anything like a shovel. In desperation, he could only close the fingers of his right hand and use the palm of his hand as a shovel.
Putting power into the palm of your hand, what is surprising is that the flesh and blood body is no less tough than steel.
The middle-aged man exerted a little force, and his whole palm penetrated deeply into the hard soil. Large chunks of hard mud were thrown into the corner, and after a while, a pit two feet deep was dug.
The middle-aged man placed the brazier upright at the bottom of the pit and took off the dry food bag from his waist.
However, what was inside the bag was not food, but a mixture of rosin and a finely divided red gravel. The middle-aged man poured half the bag of fine yarn into the brazier, then squatted on the ground and outlined the magic circle with his right index finger. His fingers were like sharp steel hooks, and the solid soil was cut easily, even the edges were extremely smooth.
After finishing, the middle-aged man gently patted the soil off his hands, and then carefully took off his belt, only to see that it was full of lead bars about a foot long and as thick as a mung bean.
Gently pinch the soft lead bars into the required shape. As for the places that need to be connected, the middle-aged man only needs to squeeze hard to connect the two lead bars together. His fingers seem to be more powerful than steel pliers. .
A magic circle that was exactly the same as the one on the ground quickly appeared in his hand.
The middle-aged man embedded the completed work into the soil, and then used the excavated soil to completely fill the magic circle.
After doing all this, the middle-aged man lay down on the carpet, gently took out a tightly wrapped cloth bag from his waist, and gently untied the layers of cloth.
Looking at the inconspicuous knife in his hand, it was hard for him to believe that this thing could easily kill a dragon.
