Chapter 322: Look at this stick, its black and long
Before the dispatch, Lamias did not have a landline phone on her body... In such a high-intensity battle, any electronic products she brought with her would probably have to be reimbursed, so it was good to be able to find a landline phone.
Even though the phone in front of her was an antique rotary dial, Lamias lifted the painting tube without saying a word, pressed it on her neck, and then dug her fingers into the rotary dial.
A few seconds later...a dozen seconds later...a minute later, Lamias suddenly put the painting tube back and left with a cold face.
The phone is open, has signal, and can obviously make calls to the outside world.
But Lamias discovered a surprising fact: after getting used to using modern mobile phones, she had no habit of remembering phone numbers...except her own phone number.
"It's not far from the school, at most half an hour's drive."
"The woman named Eve didn't expect the surgical skills to be so superb, but the pain is even more intense now. I'm afraid it's because the anesthesia has passed."
"There are still five hours before the armor can be automatically repaired successfully. After five hours, I can use the armor's built-in healing spell to recover."
"This manor has always been hiding secrets. Should we investigate it carefully?"
Countless thoughts emerged in Lamias's mind. Finally, she decided to walk around the manor in the courtyard outside to see if it was within the scope of activities allowed by the other party.
"In five hours, the armor can be activated. When facing Eve, I won't be as passive as I am now... I can also find out the depth of Eve and the master of the manor... Well, what is this?"
As night fell, Lamias, who had already walked out of the big house and came outside the courtyard, heard some singing... the sound of a woman singing.
But obviously, this was not Eve's voice, which instantly overturned Lamias's inference that only the owner of the manor and Eve lived in the big house.
The sound came from the attic on the east side of the big house. Lamias took a few steps and looked up. Under the weak light, she saw something seemed to be sitting in front of the attic window sill.
A shadow, a square shadow...a pillow.
One can sing and is singing. He has big eyes and looks like a pillow from a cartoon!
Lamias's eyes widened immediately. Even though she was in the [inhuman] world, she was accustomed to all kinds of strange things, but now she saw a person with hands, feet, eyes, and a mouth, and could even sing.
When she hugged the pillow, she still couldn't help being surprised.
She could only infer in this direction about magical creatures.
Magicians are a group of eccentric guys. They use magic to create many magic dolls to serve... What Lamias saw most in the past were stone statues and other magic dolls, commonly known as gargoyles. That is what most magicians compare to
Like the servants created.
But the pillow... this was the first time she encountered a pillow that could sing.
Lamias felt that this pillow was fundamentally different from those gargoyles with slow movements and intelligence... Just when she was planning to get closer to the pillow and study it carefully, the pillow on the attic window sill seemed to notice something.
What.
After a quick glance and a blink of an eye, the pillow creature suddenly jumped in, then closed the curtains, and then the lights in the attic were extinguished.
Lamias opened her mouth in surprise, then shook her head... But in her heart, she was even more afraid of the owner of the manor who could create such a spiritual pillow demon.
Although the owner of this manor only looks like he is in his early twenties, it is very likely that his real age is already several hundred years old. Magicians are a group of guys who can maintain their youth through secret medicine.
"He said he just moved here in the past few weeks...what is the purpose?"
"Could he be from the [Magician Association]?"
Lamias had more and more doubts in her heart. After thinking about it, she felt that if she did not find out the origin of the owner of the manor, it would probably bring huge uncertainties to what she was going to do next in the town.
…
Boss Luo, who was reading a book in the study room, suddenly heard a sound.
That was the sound of someone knocking on the window of the room with stones... Boss Luo walked to the terrace, opened the window door, and saw Lamias in the courtyard looking up at this moment.
The way of throwing stones to call people was quite childish in the last century. Boss Luo leaned against the guardrail in front of the terrace and asked curiously: "What's the matter?"
"You said you can't go up." Lamias shrugged and said, "Your big house is so quiet. I guess you are a person who likes peace and quiet, so I can only choose this method... After all, there are so many rooms.
, this room looks like it belongs to someone.”
He was on the terrace, she was in the courtyard, she raised her head, while he lowered his head. The night was desolate, and the temperature in the suburbs was lower than that in the town, so the air condensed with mist.
The smell of green grass permeates the surroundings.
Boss Luo found this kind of conversation quite interesting, so he smiled and said, "What do you want from me, Miss Lamias?"
"Let's get straight to the point." Lamias has simulated another conversation with the young owner of this manor many times, and finally formulated a plan before throwing stones, "I want to know why you know about the reversal of the holy relic.
"
"Because I have some special information channels." Boss Luo said casually. However, this information comes at a price, and it is bought with life...time.
Of course, now he doesn't have to worry about the consumption of this kind of information. After all, it is not information related to the big secrets of all sub-worlds and dimensional gaps.
really!
Lamias was shocked, and she had even determined something, so she continued to raise her head and asked: "Are you... from the [Magician Association]?"
"no."
"No?" Lamias frowned and pondered for a moment before saying, "Did you come here for that kind of thing?"
She is testing... No matter what the other party knows or not, such a tone can always arouse the other party's interest.
Anyone would be curious about such a thing.
Hey, do you know about that?
whats the matter?
in this way.
"I don't know what the thing Miss Lamias mentioned is." Boss Luo asked curiously, with an interesting look in his eyes.
Lamias suddenly said: "What do you think of this town?"
"It's a pretty good place." Boss Luo said casually: "Calm, peaceful, and friendly... It's a very suitable place for vacation."
"What about other than that?" Lamias blinked and guided step by step: "That's right, it's like a paradise. It's hard for you to even feel that there is evil happening here, even if there are some occasionally.
The beatings and troubles are just caused by the curiosity and naughtiness of young people, but they are still not bad in nature."
Boss Luo smiled and said, "What do you want to say."
Lamias said sternly: "Do you know the petitioner? You must know it. After all, you even know about the reversal of the holy relic."
"so?"
Lamias said slowly: "The probability of a petitioner being produced in this town is far greater than anywhere else, even going straight to the headquarters of the Holy Church... In this way, wouldn't you suspect something?"
"Oh...you mean, this town wants to turn people into petitioners?"
"It is a means of making petitioners." Lamias smiled and said: "In other words, there is something that makes people born in the town purer than people born in the outside world, so that the people who live here can
, pure thoughts.”
"Maybe it's just because the people here are simple and honest," Boss Luo said casually.
"University." Lamias said calmly: "Students in the university are not children born and raised in small towns. Almost all of them come from other places. However, after these people graduate, they can still produce petitioners, but the probability is relatively high.
It’s much lower because they left here after graduation.”
"Miss Lamias, you just said, get straight to the point."
"We suspect, no..." Lamias suddenly said in a deep voice: "We speculate that there is something in the town that is constantly transforming or nurturing the souls of the humans living in the town, allowing them to
It can meet the standard of becoming a petitioner, or is close to this standard. And such a thing is very likely to be... a holy relic!"
"I'm not very interested in holy relics for the time being." Boss Luo shook his head: "If I were interested, I might not return your pendant to you so soon."
When Lamias heard this, she complained about how this guy could talk about such gangsterism in such an upright manner.
"But I'm interested." Lamias said directly: "So, I want to ask you to help me get something that can transform the souls of the residents of this town."
Boss Luo said: "Miss Lamias, why are you sure I can help you... Also, you just said [us], why don't you go rescue your companions."
"Of course there are some special reasons." Lamias said calmly: "This matter can only be completed by me independently. The rules do not say that I cannot find foreign aid."
"I was easily subdued by you." Boss Luo shook his head.
"You don't have to do it yourself." Lamias naturally didn't believe the other party's lies, "You can ask your servant to do it. I can feel that the maid named Eve has extraordinary abilities. Don't worry.
, I won’t let your efforts go in vain... The world is so big, you can always find what you are interested in."
"I admit it." Boss Luo nodded, "There is indeed something I am interested in at the moment."
"Tell me." Lamias said bluntly: "I can give you something that even [the magician] will not refuse."
"for example?"
Lamias suddenly said: "What do you think of me? What I mean is, what do you think of me compared to [inhumans]?"
"With all due respect, Miss Lamias, you are just an ordinary person." Boss Luo said calmly: "Whether it is mentally or physically, you are not beyond the scope of ordinary people."
She didn't take it seriously at all, nodded and said: "Yes, I am indeed a genuine ordinary mortal, but... you have to watch it."
With that said, Lamias squatted down slowly in front of Boss Luo and pressed her palms into the soil.
She didn't make any move, but a faint circle of light suddenly appeared on the dirt ground... In the circle of light, a few rays of light intertwined like thunder and lightning, but after a moment, Lamias withdrew her palm.
But at this moment, she was holding a black stick about twenty centimeters long and half a finger thick in her palm.
"Extract the iron element from the soil..." Boss Luo thought for a while and said: "Your mental power is not high, obviously you are not a superpower, but you can control metal, which is an interesting ability."
Facing the enigmatic Lamias, Boss Luo suddenly stretched out his palm.
A small black stick protruded from the soil in an instant, and then grew like crazy, reaching the height of the balcony where he was standing upstairs.
Luo Qiu stretched out his hand and flicked the black stick, and there was a metallic sound. He shook his head, "It's not difficult... and it's not that interesting to me yet."
Lamias' somewhat proud expression suddenly became stiff... She opened her mouth, but was speechless.
So angry!
But immediately, a blazing light burst out in her eyes. This manor owner is indeed not simple!
She suddenly smiled and said: "No, this is not the ability to control metals... this is [Alchemy]! What you just saw is the ability called [Refining]! The basic principle is equivalent exchange. Drawing Refining
Formation, you can create anything! I made this iron rod just as a demonstration. In fact, I can also make other things."
Saying that, Lamias clasped her hands together again, and then pressed them on the soil. This time, a stone pillar appeared in the soil... about one foot high.
Boss Luo knows about alchemy...how could he not know? The body of the maid lady itself is the crystallization of alchemy.
It's just that the alchemy performed by Lamias seems to be quite different from the alchemy in this world. The key is that she has no magic power.
Therefore, this is a completely different concept from the alchemy that exists in the world, but it has the same ability and can be used by ordinary people.
"It's quite interesting." Boss Luo nodded at this time.
This is not an ability that should exist in this world No. 003... just like Nan Xiaonan's Star Creation Technique for creating Star Creation creatures.
I can’t believe you didn’t take the bait!
Lamias smiled slightly at this moment. This cultivated ability comes from another world!
How can this not surprise people? Even a skilled magician cannot ignore this ability that violates the existing system!
Lamias did not even forget that the senior leaders of the sect were shocked by the extraterrestrial visitor when they saw this miraculous refining ability!
"I can help you." Boss Luo smiled at this time and said: "But just helping does not necessarily lead to success. The price is that you explain this alchemy to me... how about it?"
"Okay." This did not exceed Lamias' expectations. She nodded, feeling very satisfied.
Of course there's no problem with teaching it...but whether it can be learned, she didn't guarantee at the beginning, right?
