When he woke up the next day, Lide felt a little dizzy in his head, probably because the side effects of yesterday's contract with the little ghost hadn't completely disappeared. He just lay there, half-closed his eyes and looked to the side, and at a glance he saw a pair of jade feet with red nails, and then up along those beautiful legs, was a face half covered by the mountain peak in front of his chest. The beautiful eyes were looking down at him with a kind of indifference.
Lid sat up instantly and asked:
"What time is it? How long have I been asleep?"
Lord Lingwu took two steps back in advance to prevent Lide from touching her when he got up, and then replied blankly:
"About ten hours or so."
Lied rubbed his belly:
"No wonder I'm a little hungry."
Lord Lingwu casually pointed to several large pieces of barbecue that were piled up on the other side of Lide. Each piece was at least as thick as a thigh, and they were piled up on the ground to form a hill. These meats should have been grilled by her golden flames. Although they were a bit cold, the color was still very attractive. The only regret is that apart from the golden and crispy skin, the meat inside still has weird black-purple lines, indicating that it is still zombie meat cut from those living organs, and there is nothing to do about it.
Lide casually picked up a piece and took a bite. Lord Lingwu didn't have his various spices, so the taste of the barbecue was naturally lacking a bit, but the heat was just right, perhaps because she was very good at controlling fire. It seems that she has even systematically studied cooking skills for hundreds of years. Although there is still a slight gap in technology, for Li De, the food that is not worked for is definitely the most delicious.
"Thank you, thank you... Are you leaving today?"
Lide sat cross-legged on the ground, chewing and swallowing, while asking about Lord Lingwu's next plan.
Regarding what happened last night, neither of them mentioned it again.
When Lide looked at Lord Lingwu just now, there was no trace of crying on her face.
There was no obvious blood in the eyes, and no tear stains on the face. The clothes on his body were quite neat, and his hair hung down his back in an unruly way. Lord Lingwu once said that she only needs a little sleep in one night, so the rest of the night is enough for her to pack up all her emotions and rebuild the barriers of reason, to isolate all the fragility in her heart, and recover to her full potential. That high-ranking queen who is not in a bad mood.
Lide didn't mention this matter, let alone tell her that he had seen her past, so he directly brought the topic to the next plan.
Lord Lingwu tacitly replied:
"Start normally. With the current progress, it is not far from Kleiners."
Lide swallowed the last piece of meat, burped, and said in a low voice:
"I thought about it yesterday, and I always felt that there was something wrong with this secret realm. I want to ask you a question, which may relate to the purpose of your visit this time, so you can answer it, or you can choose not to answer it—what do you want? It should be related to Kleiners, are you really sure to suppress the current Kleiners?"
Lord Lingwu didn't answer his question immediately, but asked back:
"Why do you ask?"
Lid looked at the complex magic patterns on the ground in front of him, recalled and said:
"At the beginning, Huangyan and I were unable to completely block the catastrophe, so part of the aura of heaven's disgust spread out from Huangyan's body and gathered to the north. With the addition of those blood souls, although the current Kleiners is still far from its heyday It is far away, but it is impossible to be weak enough to be defeated casually. You and I have come here, and it is already difficult to deal with those living organs. If Kleiners' current strength is much higher than living organs such as Jiaolong, I will I advise you to give up. I know you have great ambitions, but you don’t have to start with the upper three clans to conquer the world, so that you don’t have to worry about firewood if you leave the green hills.”
Lord Lingwu stared at him for a while, then said calmly:
"You should know that there is no absolute certainty in the world. I can only answer you, the probability of success is so high that I am willing to gamble. What's more, if I don't get what I want, neither you nor I can leave this seabed."
Lied stood up on his knees, sighed slightly, and said:
"Let's go."
In fact, he still has some questions that he hasn't told Lord Lingwu.
It’s a good thing that those living organs appear here. It can be understood as Kleiners’ collection addiction, and it can also be explained as its watchdog. But what is the complex maze in the outermost circle for? Who would build such a large maze in their own home
In the past, Lid thought that Kleinus might have made it up for fun, but after meeting the little ghost, Lid quickly overturned this idea. For something like a maze, it is enough for the little ghost to generate a few illusions at will, as large as it wants, and there are no duplicates.
If it is said that this is a means of resisting foreign invasion, it also makes no sense. From the maze to the living mechanism, to the sandstorm area and the illusion-making Shen, the difficulty is obviously from easy to difficult. Since you don't want outsiders to come in and disturb you, why bother to give the intruders a process of adaptation, wouldn't it be enough to just put the trump card outside
But these are just things he thinks about in his spare time. Just like Lord Lingwu said, it is impossible for the Nine Great Perfections to leave the bottom of the sea, and the strength of the physical body is too fragile in the face of this level of water pressure. He can only choose the way forward, since there is only one way, there is nothing to hesitate about.
Lord Lingwu turned and walked deeper, Lide was about to follow, when he suddenly remembered that he didn't seem to see the shadow of the little ghost. He searched up, down, left, and right, and suddenly the lazily voice of the little ghost appeared in his mind:
"Look up the arm."
Lid rolled up his sleeve and glanced at his left arm. The complex magic pattern on it seemed to be breathing, and there was a very faint light flickering on and off, which was completely covered by a layer of clothes on purpose.
The little ghost continued:
"It's not a trump card to be discovered by others, right? I'll just stay here when there are people around. What's more, that woman probably doesn't want to see me at all. If she gets jealous of me, won't it affect you young couple? Feelings… "
Lied patted his arm, and the little ghost immediately called out:
"It hurts! Take it easy—"
After complaining, the little ghost stopped teasing about the previous incident. Lord Lingwu turned around and glanced at Lide, Lide immediately confused it with words like "beating mosquitoes", and then remembered that there should be no mosquitoes in the seabed, but fortunately Lord Lingwu didn't get to the bottom of it.
She continued to walk forward, but the little ghost suddenly asked in a very serious tone:
"I'm actually not very clear about the relationship between the two of you, but if you really fight with her, I will have little effect. Get rid of me, a ghost who eats melons. She has more cards in her body at present. Yours The hard power is slightly stronger, so it’s hard to say who will win and who will lose in a real fight. I just ask you, if that woman wants to kill you, do you have the consciousness to kill her with your own hands?”
Lide nodded calmly, and only answered three words:
"Do not worry."
