After hearing what Hayes said, not only Ling Yun showed a surprised look, Anna also looked shocked, looking at Ling Yun with a slightly complicated look in her eyes.
"Grandpa, are you kidding me?" Ling Yun calmed down and said with a smile.
Hayes frowned, looked at Ling Yun carefully, and said slowly: "I'm not kidding, Xiaoyun, you have really reached the fifth level of ability user now!"
Hearing Hayes' affirmative tone, Ling Yun finally began to believe his words, because he knew that his grandfather would never be careless about such a thing!
"Xiaoyun, how did you do it? You actually improved one level in just two months! This is simply unbelievable!" Hayes exhaled deeply and exclaimed.
After hearing what Hayes said, Ling Yun couldn't help lowering his head and fell into deep thought. Anna also looked at Ling Yun with a serious expression, waiting for Ling Yun's answer. Among the four, Marilyn was the only one with a blank expression, left.
I looked and looked and couldn't understand what Hayes was talking about.
After a moment, Ling Yun raised his head, looked at Hayes with a helpless expression, and sighed softly: "I'm sorry, Grandpa! I really don't know why this is happening!"
Hayes frowned, seemingly unwilling to accept it, and continued to ask: "Have you practiced your spiritual power during this month?"
Ling Yun thought for a while and said: "Grandpa Sola once told me not to let me use or practice my spiritual power in the castle, so during the period when I came to the castle, I did not practice my spiritual power!"
"No? How could this happen..." Hayes whispered to himself after hearing Ling Yun's answer, puzzled.
Seeing Hayes frowning, Ling Yun opened his mouth slightly as if he wanted to say something, but after hesitating for a moment, Ling Yun finally closed his mouth and remained silent.
In fact, Ling Yun already had a guess in his mind, but this guess was too weird, so after thinking about it, Ling Yun decided not to tell Hayes yet. After he figured it out, it would not be too late to tell Hayes!
After thinking for a while, but still getting no results, Hayes couldn't help but sigh, and then said: "Forget it, wait until I go back to talk to Teacher Sola about this matter, maybe he can know why you can
Level up in such a short period of time!"
"By the way! Grandpa, what's the matter with you coming to see me so early?" Ling Yun pulled Hayes into the room and asked after sitting down.
"I was so surprised that I almost forgot about the real thing! Haha~ Actually, I came to see Anna! I just didn't expect that she would be here with you!" Hayes said with a smile.
"Looking for me?" Anna couldn't help but be startled when she heard that Hayes was actually looking for her, and asked doubtfully: "Great Elder, what are you looking for for me?"
"It's like this. The most important day for our undead clan will arrive in a while. We elders have decided to officially announce you as the new saint on that day. I hope you can improve your spirit as much as possible during this period.
We must strive to advance to the fifth level of ability before that day, so Anna, you must be mentally prepared, and you will have to work hard during this period."
Hearing the news, Anna couldn't help showing a surprised expression on her face, and then said in surprise: "Is it true now? Great Elder?" Seeing Hayes smiling and nodding, Anna said excitedly: "
Great Elder, don’t worry, I will do my best to improve my spiritual power during this period of time."
Hayes smiled slightly and said: "Originally, your grandfather should have told you this matter. However, your grandfather has something important to do and he left the castle last night, so I can only convey this matter to you."
"
"What, grandpa left the castle last night?" Anna was shocked. This was the first time that her grandpa left her without saying goodbye. If something urgent hadn't happened, grandpa would never have even said hello.
There is no time.
At this time, Anna couldn't help but have an ominous premonition in her heart. She hurriedly asked: "Great Elder, what happened? Why didn't I hear any news?"
Hayes sighed softly and said: "Last night, several of our elders gathered together to discuss the matter of officially declaring you a saint. It had already been initially established, but at this moment, four people who had not yet arrived arrived.
However, the elder appeared, and there was also shocking news. According to him, a person who was suspected of kidnapping Yan'er actually appeared on the outskirts of the Mist Forest. When I thought about it, this person was probably the one who had once trespassed into the Castle of the Undead.
That person, your grandfather took the initiative to ask for help and went to the outskirts of the Mist Forest to explore the traces of that person."
Anna asked anxiously: "So is there any news about my grandfather now? Has he not returned to the castle yet?"
Hayes shook his head and sighed: "Your grandfather has not yet returned, but the fourth elder set out with him to explore the Mist Forest. There should be nothing wrong with the two of them taking care of each other. Don't worry, Anna!"
"I hope so..." Anna whispered to herself.
At this moment, the ominous premonition still enveloped her heart.
Hearing Hayes' words, Ling Yun couldn't help but frowned. The weirdo Ling Yan'er mentioned was most likely an unfounded character she had made up, but the fourth elder said that a person who looked like that appeared on the outskirts of the Mist Forest.
Weird guy, is this a coincidence? Or...Ling Yun smelled a conspiracy in it.
With Marilyn's comfort, Anna's worries gradually disappeared.
After some consolation, Hayes left immediately.
After a period of time, Marilyn went back to Anna's room with her in order to comfort Anna. At this time, Ling Yun was the only one left in the room. With nothing to do, he couldn't help lying on his back on the bed, looking at the blank roof,
I don’t know what I’m thinking about…
In that secret base, although the piercing sirens had stopped, the tense atmosphere still enveloped the base.
The main control room of the Dream Mastermind is crowded with the world's top programmers, many of whom are gray-haired old men. At this time, almost everyone is frowning, looking at the huge light screen in the center of the room.
It was surprisingly solemn. At this moment, a light cough broke the deathly silence of the entire room.
"Ahem! You are all elites in this field. Can any of you tell me where the content that Dreams independently updated comes from?" the team leader asked after scanning the circle.
After hearing his words, everyone lowered their heads and remained silent. Apparently no one could answer the team leader's question. Seeing this, the team leader couldn't help but frown, and then walked up to the old men with a slightly respectful tone.
asked: "Mr. Wang, you are an expert among experts in this field. What do you think of this dreamy independent update?"
The old man known as Mr. Wang looked at the data that was constantly being refreshed on the huge light screen, with a helpless expression on his face. He sighed softly and said: "This is beyond our knowledge. As for where it comes from,
I don’t think anyone can make it clear. I see that this update contains a lot of content about hidden professions. I think if I copy these materials and send them to the five major families, some of the mysteries may be solved.
group."
After hearing Mr. Wang's suggestion, the team leader couldn't help but frown, and after thinking for a moment, he sighed: "This is the only solution for now."
At the same time, players who had been waiting all night on the Fantasy Forum found that the Dream World was still unable to enter normally, and there was no official news at all. So some players posted a message asking the Fantasy official how long this update and maintenance would last.
What, I hope the official can give an accurate answer.
After this post was published, it immediately received support from the majority of players, and in a very short period of time it was ranked at the top of the forum by many players. This shows the majority of players' expectations for this system update and their obsession with the dream world.
Despite this, no one from Fantasy officials stood up to answer the questions of the players. Although everyone on the forum has been clamoring about the time when the game will be restarted, Fantasy officials have never given an accurate answer.
At the edge of the misty forest, Omar fell to the ground with a pale face, with unwillingness and resentment in his eyes, looking at Al who was slowly walking towards him. At this moment, Al had a ferocious face and purple eyes.
There was a strange evil aura faintly emerging from it.
"El...why...you did this?" Omar said weakly.
I saw Al with an evil smile on his face and said: "Omar, my old friend, actually I don't want to do this. Originally, my target this time was Hainas or Hayes, but I didn't expect that you would
You offered to come, so you can’t blame me for this.”
"Killing me...what good will it do to you? Huh...huh..." Omar gasped, and now his breathing was getting more and more difficult.
Al raised his index finger and shook it: "No, no, no, old friend, I never intended to kill you. I just wanted to borrow your body."
"Lend me my body..." Omar looked at Al with more fear in his eyes, "You...what exactly do you want to do?"
Al showed a weird smile, and suddenly there was a snow-white skull in his hand. What was surprising was that the skull's double holes were flashing with a creepy light.
I saw Al saying with a little respect: "I have done what I promised you. I hope you will not forget the agreement between us." At this time, the faint light in the double holes of the skull suddenly lit up, and then there was a harsh sound.
A voice came from it: "Gaga, don't worry, kid! As long as I find a suitable host, I will definitely help you realize your wish!"
"I hope you keep your word!" After saying that, Al slowly stretched the skull in his hand towards Omar, who looked frightened...
