"Uh, okay, Mr. Ah Fu, you go ahead and do your work first. If I'm really in trouble, I'll ask for your help." Richard responded after hearing what he said. He said this, but in his heart he didn't want the old man Lich to take action.
The opponent's magic puppet might be able to be used as cannon fodder against the others, but it might not even be qualified to be used as cannon fodder against a powerful being like Rommel. Even if the Lich Old Man were to die in person, he probably wouldn't be able to hold on for long.
It is enough for the other party to have a heart, and the strength should be used to guard against the everlasting ancient trees planting tin wood in the Garden of Eden.
After listening to Richard's words, the old man Lich was no longer polite. After all, he didn't really want to help him in the first place. He was just forced to do so because of his lack of security. He nodded, turned back to the skeleton and began to transform it again. Not long after the transformation, I sat on the ground yawning, feeling tired and sleepy, and couldn't help but take a nap.
Richard glanced at the old Lich who was napping, shook his head slightly, and looked past him to a small room in the distance, which was Pandora's study room, and thought about whether he should tell him. After thinking about it, it seemed that it was not necessary, so I turned around and prepared to leave.
Unexpectedly, with a "squeak", the door to Pandora's room opened by itself, and Pandora stood at the door and looked over.
Eye to eye.
One second, two seconds, three seconds.
Pandora blinked her big eyes, looked at Richard, frowned and asked, "Can I go with you?"
Um? piece
Richard raised his eyebrows in confusion: Pandora knew what he was going to do? But he didn't seem to have told the other party any relevant clues, right
Then it became clear: Yes, Pandora should know. Even if she doesn't know, she should be vaguely aware of it. After all, the other party has certain prophetic abilities.
After thinking about it, he looked at Pandora. Richard shook his head and answered clearly: "No."
Absolutely not, because this operation is too dangerous.
After hearing this, Pandora's face drooped, obviously disappointed. But he wasn't too surprised. He had already guessed the possibility. He opened his mouth and said, "Scared--, okay, then be careful."
"Yeah." Richard nodded and turned to leave.
Pandora suddenly spoke again: "Well, you really can't take me with you? Can I help?"
Richard turned his head, looked at Pandora, exhaled and said, "No, at least not this time. Look after the house obediently and keep an eye on the tree. This is also helping."
"Okay." Pandora lowered her head.
"Let's go." Richard waved his hand and walked straight out of the Garden of Eden.
Watching Richard disappear, Pandora stood at the door for a while, and finally bit her lip and closed the door.
He walked to the room and sat down behind the desk, propped up his chin with his hands, and said in a low mood: "I wanted to help before, so I studied mathematics, but now that I have learned a lot, I still can't help. Could it be that, there is What went wrong?"
For a long time, Pandora guessed and said: "Maybe, you can't just learn, but also apply."
"Application..." Pandora whispered, her eyes falling on some pieces of papyrus on the desk.
Above is the content of her recent research. You can see numerous numbers and parentheses of various sizes, which are mathematical sets.
gather? What is the use of collections? Where can it be used? Can you help Richard
Pandora frowned and thought.
Outside the door, the old Lich woke up after a short nap. He looked around, looked at the eight-armed skeleton next to him and asked doubtfully: "How long have I been asleep?"
"Hey, I thought I heard someone talking next to me just now. Was it just a dream? Or is it true?"
The eight-armed skeleton looked at the old man Lich quietly, the fire in his eyes fluctuating, a little more emotional than before, as if to say: If you want me to speak, at least install a structure that can make sounds for me. !
The old man Lich touched his nose and didn't pay much attention to the eight-armed skeleton. He asked and answered himself: "Well, I must have been dreaming just now. It seems that I am really too tired. Then after I transform this skeleton, I will have a good sleep. Give it a while, after all, you can't tire yourself out by helping that kid Richard. Besides, I'm not sure if I can help with these things I got, it might be wasted effort."
Yawning again, the old man Lich muttered and got busy.
The eight-armed skeleton followed beside him and continued to hand over bones one after another. His movements seemed a little emotional.
…
Outside the Garden of Eden.
Blue Lagoon Manor.
After Richard finished explaining to the servants in the open space in front of the stone building, he stepped forward and turned into a gray light that shot up into the sky and flew towards Delan.
Looking from the air, one could see that as Richard left, the servants slowly dispersed and returned to the room. Immediately afterwards, the lighting lights were extinguished everywhere, and the entire manor dimmed and merged into the darkness.
Many people in the manor didn't know what Richard was doing. They only knew that Richard, the owner of the manor, was away from home again as before.
Only Gallie, as the housekeeper, knew a little bit about the inside story, but not much.
At this time, he was in the room, checking some accounts by a dim light, and sighed softly after looking at them for a long time.
The money left in the accounts can maintain the operation of the entire manor for about three months. If Richard does not come back in one month, then he will fire servants and reduce expenses. If Richard does not come back in two months, he will prepare to close the manor. .
If Richard doesn't come back for three months, then he, the butler, may become the only caretaker of the manor.
Richard left this time and might not come back again. That was the inside story that Jialie knew. Richard told him not long ago.
"I hope it won't be like this." Gallie sighed, put the account book with twisted writing and drawings back in the drawer, blew out the oil lamp and went to bed.
He really didn't want Richard to come back if he left. After all, he hadn't been a housekeeper for long, and he hadn't even learned all the words. He used pictures instead of words for a large part of the contents in the ledger.
He believed that with his ability, he would never be able to be a housekeeper anywhere else, not even a high-level valet. Because of this, he cherished the opportunity given to him by Richard and hoped to continue working hard.
But he also knew that his thoughts could not change anything. As a wizard, Richard believed that going out this time was risky, so the only thing he could do was to pray.
"My respected and kind master, your servant Gallie, sincerely hope you can return safely." Praying silently in his heart, Gallie lay on the bed and closed his eyes. The world fell into deep darkness and fell into a deep sleep.
…
The whole world is getting darker and darker, and the night is getting deeper and deeper.
When it reaches its deepest level, the world gradually lights up again, with fish-belly white appearing in the east, and then the goose-egg yolk-like rising sun rises.
The sun rose higher and higher, slowly moving across the sky from east to south, and it was noon.
At noon, the time for battle has arrived.
