Chapter 48: Two Puppet Components Monthly Pass)

The gray long sword swayed slightly, and Rhine suddenly flashed into the door that had not yet been closed, leaving only a slowly disappearing phantom. He asked funny and curiously: "Have you also encountered that monster that can truly disguise others?"

There was a little relaxation in his tone, as if he confirmed that Lucien was real.

Lucien looked at him warily. After re-enforcing the mechanized mind and spiritual barrier, he was still rational and calm and did not attack directly: "Mr. Rhine, how can I be sure that you are real?"

At least you have to present irrefutable facts, otherwise it would be better for everyone to go their separate ways.

Rhine held the door open, not letting it close, and said with a smile: "I understand that breath, blood, body, memory, etc. cannot tell whether it is a monster in disguise. I have been injured because of this before, but one thing, I believe that unless the monster is the truth

God, otherwise it would never be able to simulate it.”

"What is it?" Lucien vaguely guessed Rhine's answer.

A pair of huge bat wings emerged from behind the Rhine red coat, and the faint silver moonlight lit up. From a high position, a transcendent god-like aura descended, making it seem as if a silver moon was rising in the gray hall: "That is the aura of the ancestor, the monster must be

There is no way to pretend to be a god, and the breath entwined in your left hand lets me know that you are not fake."

Feeling the familiar aura of Aitna, Lucien exhaled softly and revealed the remaining aura of Silver Moon and the mysterious existence of the dead world in his left hand without reservation: "Okay, I believe you are Mr. Rhine

, if the monster can simulate the breath of a god, then I can’t escape even if I’m not deceived.”

Rhine coughed twice, and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth. For a vampire, vomiting blood is a very serious injury, but he smiled nonchalantly: "Being cautious is a normal choice, I was just careless for a moment."

"The monster I encountered was disguised as you, what about the one you encountered?" Lucien put away the Sword of Truth, but did not put down the Shield of Truth and remained alert.

Rhine coughed twice again: "It disguised itself as another prince of the blood clan, the one with whom I have a good relationship."

"Oh, it seems that monsters can not only disguise themselves into the Gray Maze, but their lives can also imitate other strong people." Lucien said doubtfully, what principle is this based on?

The gray maze is Lucien's name for the gray hall with the black door.

"Gray Labyrinth? Haha, this is called the 'World of Doors,' at least that's what the legendary magicians who disappeared here called it." Rhine corrected Lucien's naming, "I suspect there is something weird about this World of Doors, maybe our memory

It couldn't be kept secret, so the monster disguised him based on my memory."

Memory cannot keep it secret, so what about the secret of coming from the earth? What about the Soul Library? Lucien frowned and thought about this serious question. Will he see the monster imitating Yuanshi Tianzun, Taishang Laojun, Gundam, and Super Sailor later?

Demihumans, Star Destroyers, flinch cannons?

It's really a wonderful world...

"The world of the door? Mr. Rhine, have you found the things left by Viken and the others?" There was no way to discuss the matter of the Soul Library with Rhine, so Lucien turned to ask about another important point.

Rhine shook his head: "I tracked the mysterious fragments in Sald's body and came here before I was attacked. I only found a few scraps of paper with some records on them."

He didn't hide anything, so he took out a few pieces of gray paper and "flew" them to Lucien.

Carefully catching it with the mage's hand, Lucien hurriedly browsed through:

"... There are literally countless black doors here. Behind each door there may be surprises or dangers. We named it the World of Doors..."

"...... We accidentally found some strange creatures behind a few doors. They seem to be similar to the research we conducted before. If we hadn't already had some research results, we might never have discovered them..."

"…···Perhaps we can find a way to get in there by studying these creatures..."

"...It seems like someone has come in here before..."

The handwriting on two of the papers was very familiar to Lucien, one was that of MacLeod whom he had just seen, and the other was that of the prophet Maskelyne.

"Weird creatures, are there a lot of those monsters?" Lucien said with numbness, secretly wondering about the contents of the last scrap of paper. Has anyone come in before? Before Maskelyne and the others?

Rhine closed the black door, took out a white handkerchief, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, shook his head and said: "Impossible, if there are many monsters, how could Maskelin and the others have the chance to discover them and take notes so easily."

What he meant was that Maskelyne and the others should have been wiped out not long after they entered. After all, their strength was not as good as his ability to summon the Silver Moon, and their large number made it very easy for monsters who were good at disguise to have a chance.

"That's right, even Mr. Rhine, you were seriously injured by the sneak attack." Lucien nodded slightly, "By the way, Mr. Rhine, what level of strength is the monster you encountered?"

Rhine folded the handkerchief and put it in his coat pocket: "The legendary peak, the real legendary peak. I summoned the power of the ancestor to repel it. However, if I hadn't been careless and couldn't defeat it, I could still have escaped.

"After a pause, he smiled and said humorously: "I am a legendary third-level man."

"Why did I only encounter the legendary second level?" Lucien was very confused about this. "Did we encounter different monsters?"

"If they are different monsters, why do they all happen to be one level higher than our own strength?" Rhine was keenly aware of the doubts. "Except for the ability to summon the ancestors, I am a legendary level three, and without the equipment upgrade, you should only be a legendary level one.

level?"

Being here, he didn't know the time comparison with the outside world, so he was not sure whether a "monster" like Lucien, who could advance at an unimaginable speed, had already advanced to the second level of the Legend.

Lucien felt that strange sense of familiarity again. It seemed that he had encountered this situation before, but he couldn't find a meeting that met the conditions. He could only think: "Yes. Maybe due to some special restrictions,

Monsters can only exert one level of strength higher than the target?"

"It's possible." Rhine said with his usual smile, as if encouraging Lucien to guess.

Lucien suddenly had an idea and looked at Rhine with a smile: "Mr. Rhine, if this inference is true, do you think the two of us will encounter one monster or two monsters if we act together? Is it a legendary second-level monster?"

The strength, or the strength of the legendary peak?"

"It should be a monster at the pinnacle of legend." Rhine thought for a while and answered.

Lucien looked away "coldly": "Then let's go separately."

"Sorry, I will always be on the same road with you." Rhine replied with the same humor, "And an experienced observer who knows the secrets is of great use here. Besides, it was just a guess."

Lucy smiled and said: "I am also worried that I will encounter monsters at the peak of legends when I act alone, so it is better to have Mr. Rhine as my back. I think there will be no god-like monsters. Well, Mr. Rhine, I don't plan to continue.

We have explored and are ready to return. This place is not far from the entrance, just like a dozen black doors. Do you want to come with us?"

"I was seriously injured and obviously not suitable to stay any longer." Rhine took out a light green puppet arm, "Fortunately I met a guy like you who knows the rules of coordinate changes, otherwise I don't know how long I will have to figure it out. This is considered payment in advance.

The reward is McLeod's unique method of making the stand-in puppet components. Analyzing it can bring you a lot of gains."

Observing the environment and summarizing the rules are the strengths of magicians, and arcanists among magicians are particularly good at it. Rhine himself is very self-aware.

Lucien's face suddenly turned green and he became alert again: "Mr. Rhine, put the puppet arm on the ground."

"What's wrong? Were you deceived just now by being given a puppet arm?" Rhine smiled happily and threw the puppet arm to the ground indifferently, watching Lucien pick it up with the hands of a mage.

After taking it in his hand, Lucien recognized that it was the other arm of the puppet, and it happened to be the same set.

Relaxing slightly, Lucien pushed open the black door behind him, and what appeared in front of him was a familiar silver-gray hall with remnants of silver-white magic patterns on the ground.

"No, it's not the one before." Lucien quickly figured out that this magic pattern formed another part of the hexagram.

"Eh, shredded paper?" Rhine also found a light gray fragment and showed it directly to Lucien:

"No"!

This was similar to the previous "Devil" fragment, showing a kind of hysterical madness and fear. Lucien found the right leg of the puppet while remembering the magic pattern.

Lucien, who collected the three parts of the puppet at once, was not happy, but was very puzzled and solemn: "Why are these fragments and puppet components waiting for us to discover?"

"There are too many halls in the world of doors, and maybe the monsters can't find them all." Rhine guessed the possibility.

Lucien shook his head: "Then why can it find us accurately?"

In the gray hall, Douglas and Fernando were surrounded by countless warning magics.

"Except for the hall and the black door, is there nothing else here?" Fernando looked around, and there were no dangers or monsters. That made it even more dangerous. This is the deepest part of the Necronomicon, where many legendary magicians have disappeared.

.

Douglas looked around: "The position changes very quickly, but it conforms to the coordinate change pattern left by Maskelyne. But this way, it will be difficult to meet Lucien. We can only make secret notes along the way to let him find out later.

Go out on your own and leave us the same secret message."

"He must have been hiding nearby for a while and then returned to the entrance. We just have to calculate the time." After Fernando noticed that the location of the hall changed quickly, he vaguely guessed his student's plan.

As he spoke, he used magic to open a black door.

"Life breath sensor?" Rhine speculated again.

Before they finished speaking, the two of them raised their heads at the same time and looked warily at a black door, which was slowly opening.
