Man at the top of the food chain

Volume 5: Burning Earth Chapter 35: Magic (2)

A man came out of the gate. He looked no different from an ordinary earthling, but he was wearing very worn linen clothes that looked like some kind of prison uniform.

There seemed to be a thin membrane on the outside of his body, which prevented the water pressure from acting directly on him.

When he saw the underwater world in front of him and the underwater bases built by the Federation, a curious look appeared on his face.

"Strange metal shell, no magic fluctuations were felt, but there was light."

"Biological detection."

"There are no creatures inside."

But at this moment, three engineering robots had been launched from the base and swam towards the location of the prisoners at high speed.

"Huh? Puppet? Still can't feel the magic fluctuations, what a strange world." Seeing the engineering robot coming in front of him, a capture net was sprayed out from the robot's body and covered the prisoner.

"Stupid creature, are you trying to challenge the majesty of the wizard?" The prisoner raised his palm, and endless cold air diffused from his body, rushing to the seabed around him in an instant, like a blooming ice lotus, freezing all the buildings within a radius of one kilometer, including the engineering robot.

Seeing that the enemies around him had been cleared, the prisoner-like man showed a smug smile on his face, and the next moment, he soared into the sky and rose towards the sea.

During the rise, his figure gradually became transparent until it slowly disappeared.

...

At the moment the man appeared, Li Anping, who was far away in Tianjing, had received the news.

The information was transmitted to his mind through electromagnetic waves, and then restored to a three-dimensional image in front of him.

"Why would a human come from the White Land?" Li Anping frowned. "Is it a demon that looks like a human? Seagram just led away the spirit incarnation at this moment. Is it a coincidence? Or was it premeditated?"

Li Anping's ears recalled the voice of the man's mouth. It was the last voice recorded by the monitoring equipment, but he couldn't tell what the other person said.

"Is this your language? What does it mean?"

Li Anping thought about it, but unfortunately there were too few clues and he didn't come to a conclusion.

At this time. The image of Bai Xinghe appeared in front of him: "Sir, we have temporarily lost contact with the area near the gate. Do we need to send someone over?"

"No, I will let the incarnation of mind go there first after I catch Seagram." Li Anping ordered. He looked at the prisoner in the three-dimensional image and said coldly: "First find the guy who came out of the gate. Catch him."

"Yes, sir."

The last picture in Li Anping's image, the gradually destroyed base, frowned: 'I was still careless. The seabed is not suitable for other people's combat environment. I thought it would be enough to let the incarnation of mind guard it, but I didn't expect it to be a mistake. The key is that there are not enough people for underwater combat.

It seems that we need to strengthen our strength in this area. '

At the same time, the thirty prophet satellites surrounding the entire earth have been fully operational and began to search for the man in prison uniforms who appeared in the picture.

The man's head portrait appeared in the police, the Internet, and the news, but the government did not reveal the man's true identity. Instead, it said that he was a capable person on the run and had a strong aggressiveness.

...

Death zone in the north of the Code Country.

Shang Tian looked at the new wanted order on the Internet and laughed: "The opportunity has come. Let's go, Kudia, let's go to World No. 1."

"Is it finally done?" Kudia stood up, stretched his waist, and made a jingling sound all over his body: "But what about Li Anping? His mind incarnation may return to the gate at any time."

"So we have to hurry up." Shang Tian quickly tapped the keyboard and called all the team members he had selected: "Now Li Anping has temporarily lost the monitoring of the gate. As long as we seize this opportunity to go in, he will not know that we have passed. I am afraid we will never encounter such a coincidence again in the future."

A few minutes later, Shang Tian, ​​Kudia. And more than a dozen men and women have set off towards the location of the gate.

On the other side, the man who walked out of the gate has arrived in a small town in the north of the Code Country after several hours of flight.

Looking at this very "prosperous" town in front of him, the buildings are completely built of reinforced concrete. The man remained invisible and sneaked in quietly.

In a house, he glanced at the body under his feet. It was a blonde woman, but now her face had turned blue and she fell to the ground. Her body still exuded a chill.

Next to the woman, a man with blonde hair was kneeling, trembling all over as he looked at the prisoner-like man.

"Please, don't kill me."

"The money is in the safe, you can take it."

The prisoner looked at him with boredom: "It's not a common language, nor an imperial language. Is it a language unique to the natives here?"

"There's no other way." He raised a finger, and a white light shot out from his fingertips and flew to the blonde man's forehead: "Try to understand the language."

The next moment, the photoelectric touched the blond man's forehead, then returned to the man's palm and disappeared. At this moment, he found that he could understand what the native in front of him was saying.

"Shut up." The blond man said again, already speaking fluently in Codex: "I have no interest in your so-called wealth at all."

He rubbed his chin and said to the blond man: "Aboriginal, what's your name?"

"Henry." Henry said tremblingly, with a flash of fear in his eyes every time he saw the nanny's body lying on the ground.

"You can call me Lord Jonah." The man who called himself Jonah said, "Now, I'm a little hungry. Please help me get some food first."

"I...I understand." Henry stood up with some fear and walked towards the kitchen. And Jonah has become a person with somewhat strange abilities in his heart.

‘Damn it, shouldn’t all ability users have been accepted into major colleges? Where did this lunatic escape from? 'Although he thought so in his heart, when Henry turned his head and saw the other party decomposing the nanny's body into pieces that were invisible to the naked eye and disappearing, the fear in his heart became more serious.

Jonah turned his head. Looking at Henry with a look of fear on his face, he smiled sinisterly: "Henry, I'm already very hungry. You don't want me to eat one of your arms, do you?"

"I know, I'll get you something to eat right now." Henry walked quickly to the refrigerator: 'Anyway, just get him something to eat first. ’

After looking at the items in the refrigerator, he asked Jonah: "Sir, can you eat instant noodles?"

"Instant noodles, what is that?" Jonah said, looking at the light on the ceiling with a curious look: "Whatever, just have some instant noodles."

When Henry came to the living room with a bowl of instant noodles, he saw Jonah quickly pressing the switch on the wall and looking at the flashing lights above his head. He showed a thoughtful look.

"Interesting trick." When he saw Henry coming over with his face raised, his nose twitched: "It smells good."

After taking a bite of the instant noodles, his face showed joy: "Not bad, this instant noodles tastes good."

Seeing the other person eating instant noodles happily, Henry thought to himself: 'Is this guy from the country? ’

But what the other party did next seemed to further confirm his suspicion. As Henry explains to Jonah, the toilet bowl. When the water could be pumped out unlimited times, the other party's eyes showed clear disbelief.

"Mortal, are you trying to deceive a mage?" Jonah pointed to the toilet and said, "This thing doesn't have any magical fluctuations. How can it create water out of thin air?"

Henry tried to explain to him the water pipes, water pressure, and water valves, but he didn't know the theory himself, so it was naturally impossible for him to explain it clearly to Jonah.

But after Jonah tried to flush the toilet dozens of times. He also had to admit that the mortal in front of him did not deceive him.

"Interesting and stupid natives, do you put all your energy into enjoying yourself?"

Facing the opponent's powerful force, Henry could only choose to secretly despise the country bumpkin in front of him.

I studied the water pipes, circuits, lights, and refrigerators in my home in turn. After there was a gas stove, Jonah changed into Henry's pajamas and lay on the sofa.

He thought to himself: 'What a bunch of hedonistic natives. ’ He touched the soft sofa and the silk pajamas on his body again: ‘It’s such a soft chair. And this piece of clothing is so exquisitely crafted that even the emperor's chief tailor probably doesn't have such craftsmanship. ’

However, after a little study of the equipment in the other party's home, Jonah also remembered the reason for his arrival. However, he asked several times in a row and found that the other party had never heard of the Saint Laurent Empire, the Mages Guild, or Carmel. Regarding the magic that Jonah was most concerned about, Henry was even more ignorant.

It seems that for them, magic is only something that appears in novels and dramas.

‘It seems that this continent is very far away from the empire, and it doesn’t even have any knowledge of magic. It’s such a remote place. ’ But when he thought that this was still a period of ignorance without magic, some of Jonah’s original worries disappeared.

‘Since there are no mages in this continent, I don’t have to worry about anything. But you can't just believe this mortal's words. Maybe the mage here is a hermit, and his level is not enough to contact them.

Maybe, I can meet their king first. Anyway, no one here knows me, so I can make up an origin at random.

If there are mages here, then join them. If there are no mages, hehe...'

After thinking for a while, Jonah asked again: "Do you have a king here? What should I do if I want to see the king?"

After saying this, Jonah raised his chin high and said with a unique pride: "As a representative of the Saint Laurent Empire Mage Guild, I request to see the king of the most powerful country on your continent."

‘Is this guy crazy? ’

But Henry naturally wouldn't say it out loud. He thought for a while and said slowly: "If you insist on telling me about the king, there is indeed one, but if you want to see it, I'm afraid it won't be easy. I need to talk to the police. one time.

Lord Jonah, would you allow me to make a phone call? "
