"Okay then." The old man Lich took a deep breath, looked straight at Richard and said, "Now that that's the case, then don't talk nonsense with me and tell me directly what you want to get from the transaction. ?!”
"What I want to get is very simple, but of course it's also a lot in a sense, that is all the knowledge in your memory." Richard said seriously.
"After sleeping for a long time now, my memory has a lot of blurs." The old man Lich frowned.
"It doesn't matter, I can give you enough time to recall and organize them one by one." Richard conceded.
"My current health is not good. I am seriously injured, so I may not have the energy." The old man Lich raised a new question.
"It doesn't matter, I will find a way to use the fastest and best way to make you recover and ensure you have enough energy." Richard gave in again.
"Due to the method of forced resurrection, my soul energy has been greatly depleted. I need the help of a lot of materials to recover. Otherwise, I can't guarantee whether I can survive for a long time in this corpse that has died once. Time to survive." The old man Lich raised the third question.
"It doesn't matter either. I will use all means to buy all the materials you need and use them on you." Richard gave in for the third time.
"I don't want to be imprisoned here by you all the time. The purpose of my resurrection is not to serve you, but to enjoy life, to contact people, and to see the beautiful world now." The old man raised another new question. .
"It doesn't matter. I can send you away from here and arrange a place for you within the scope of my protection. Even when you provide me with enough knowledge, I will completely give you your freedom," said Richard.
"Well, actually that's not what I meant." The old man suddenly paused and said, "Freedom is good, but the prerequisite for enjoyment is not just freedom, but also..."
Having said this, the old Lich looked at Richard seriously and rubbed his fingers.
"Money." Richard realized.
"Pah!" The old man Lich snapped two fingers, pointed at Richard, and showed an "I'm optimistic about you" expression, "Yes, it's money."
Richard felt amused and said, "Money? That's easier. As long as you agree to the transaction, I will provide you with all the money you need."
"Okay!" Old Lich said loudly, walked up to Richard, grabbed Richard's hand, shook it hard, and solemnly declared, "Then we will be partners from now on."
"This is my honor." Richard looked at the old man and said.
After that, Richard talked with the old man Lich for more than ten minutes and finalized all the details of the cooperation. Richard finally said: "Mr. Afu, we have finally reached an agreement now. Please wait for me here for a moment. I There is one more thing to deal with. Once it’s done, I’ll send you outside to enjoy life.”
"good."
…
"Ta-ta-ta..."
Richard stepped out of the research room and walked towards the main laboratory in Eden.
In the main laboratory, Pandora was squatting in front of the wall, frowning as she looked at a half-meter-square hole in the wall - it was caused by her battle with the old man Lich just now.
At this time, she was holding a few pieces of wall rubble in her hand and was thinking about how to repair it.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Pandora turned her head and saw it was Richard. Her eyes lit up at first, wanting to get closer. Then he thought of the gravel in his hand, stopped forcibly, and said carefully: "Well... Richard, I broke it accidentally. It doesn't matter. Can it be repaired?"
"Don't worry, it'll be fine." Richard smiled.
"Then that person just now...did I make a mistake?" Pandora asked again.
"Don't worry about this." Richard looked at Pandora with a smile and continued, "You did the right thing. The opponent is considered a bad person, but he should be a little better now."
As he spoke, Richard walked close to Pandora, helped Pandora throw away the gravel in her hand, rubbed Pandora's hair and said: "You don't have to worry about anything now, I will take care of it. Compared with your worries, I would also like to ask you, what do you remember about what happened before?"
"What happened before?"
"Yes, what happened before, that is, what happened before you fell asleep this time."
"This..." Pandora rolled her eyes, frowned and recalled, and after a while she slowly said, "I remember that I met a purple and beautiful dragon before. She was seriously injured and very sad. . I don’t know why, she turned into a ball of purple gas and floated into my body. Then, I seemed to fly up, as if I shouted something. After that, I became very sleepy, and then fell asleep. .
I felt like I slept for a long, long time and had a long, long dream. The strange thing is that after I woke up, I couldn’t remember what was in the dream, but I just felt it was very important to me. Anyway, I woke up like this and saw the guy I beat before.
He seemed ready to tear down the house you built. I got angry and started fighting with him. However, I didn't dare to use too much force, for fear of causing some repercussions. I was struggling with him, and you came back. "
After listening to Pandora's words, Richard nodded.
He could see that Pandora's previous memories were relatively intact, at least she could remember the battle on the east coast. However, after absorbing the gas spewed out by the purple dragon and transforming, his consciousness began to blur, and then he fell into a deep sleep, which has lasted until now.
Looking at Pandora, Richard asked: "After you woke up this time, did you feel any changes in your body? Or, in other words, any improvement in your abilities?"
"Ability improvement?" Pandora listened, thought for a few seconds, and then showed off like a student who got good grades, "Yes, of course! I have changed a lot."
"Don't tell me, you've grown taller." Richard said, remembering the previous situation.
"No." Pandora shook her head vigorously, "My change is that I have become more powerful."
"More powerful? Be specific."
"To be specific, I am stronger, faster, and less prone to injuries. The most important thing is... I can transform!" Pandora almost shouted the last few words.
"Transformation..." Richard whispered after hearing it. He was not very surprised by this. After all, Pandora had transformed before. However, the previous transformation should have been stimulating, but now I can master it skillfully.
Richard's look fell into Pandora's eyes, and she thought it was suspicion, and immediately said: "Richard, don't believe it, I can prove it to you!"
After hearing this, Richard's expression changed and he quickly stopped him: "No..."
As a result, the word "no" hadn't been uttered yet, and Pandora, who was eager to show off, had already taken the lead in taking action.
"Stab it!"
Pandora's clothes were torn to pieces in an instant, her body increased rapidly, and she began to deform, moving closer to the purple crystal dragon she had seen once on the east coast.
Then I saw a huge dragon head, like one carved from amethyst, poking directly towards the roof of the main laboratory like a siege cone. With a "pop", it poked out easily.
A few seconds later, the body of the purple crystal dragon left inside the main laboratory shook, causing the entire laboratory to shake with it.
After a moment of silence, Pandora's slightly off-key voice sounded, "Um... Richard, I can't seem to see you..."
"Because I'm at your feet." In the laboratory, Richard crossed his arms in front of his chest and said angrily.
"Did I get into trouble?" Pandora suddenly asked with a guilty conscience.
"What do you think?" Richard asked rhetorically.
"Scared—" was Pandora's response.
…
After another period of silence, Pandora couldn't help but speak out again and asked: "Richard, should I just stand like this?"
"Change back to me! Immediately!" Richard gave the order.
"Oh." After hearing the words, Pandora did not dare to hesitate, and her body in the purple crystal dragon state quickly shrank. The huge head retracted from the outside of the main laboratory, leaving a huge hole in the top of the main laboratory, and then changed back to the appearance of a normal human body—well, the normal human appearance of Chi (anti-harmony) Guoguo!
