Quadruple split

Chapter 937 Murderous Intent

twenty minutes later

Game time AM08:17

Under the horrified gaze of [Sage of the Mist Moon] Kenneth A. Achizoltti, Futaba, who kept multitasking throughout the whole process and occasionally chatted about a few random things, took less than half an hour to complete the task. A full set of engraving work was completed, and the mithril plate in front of her was completely carved!

The original space dissociation rune was abruptly reduced by 20%, but it did not affect the overall structure and the stability of the rune itself, and there was no space between the two sets of diagonal basic arrays of twelve Frouds. Even an error of one micron.

And between them, four beautiful cyan lines like works of art are flowing slowly, which are magic cracks that can generate high-level wind elements.

For Kenneth, this level of magic pattern inscription is not difficult at all. In the same time, his drawing efficiency can be at least ten times better than Futaba, but he also admits that he also has considerable attainments in art. , who has unique insights into aesthetics, would never be able to carve out these breathtaking lines by hand.

This is not to say that Futaba is a born artist, and those few magic patterns that were so easy to astound Kenneth were not a sudden thought. In fact, Futaba was just lazy when choosing the style and used them directly. It's just a sketch of the 'NAVI' core processor structure that impressed me most.

At best, it's just a proportional compression, which is not difficult for her at all.

As the girl's most proud work in her life, the processor structure of the artificial intelligence NAVI has naturally been beautified by its owner, to the point where it is pleasing to the eye just by looking at it.

By the way, Futaba actually planned to get a set of Cthulhu-themed skins for NAVI earlier, but since NAVI declined the proposal 157 times with various reasons, the girl finally had to design a skin for it. A set of demon green themed skin full of metallic texture.

Of course, this is not the point. The point is that it only took her twenty minutes to complete this board, and the degree of completion was extremely close to 100%. There was almost nothing to fault.

【twenty minutes……】

Kenneth looked at Futaba with a somewhat complicated look. You must know that he had been prepared to wait for the latter for two hours, and this time was based on his high evaluation of Futaba, that is, 'not inferior to those at the same age. Made on the premise of 'themselves'.

As a unique genius, Kenneth was far from being able to do this when he was in his early twenties like Futaba, and he couldn't do it even if he was exhausted.

If you consider that this girl had never even been exposed to magic before she was eighteen years old...

Kenneth, who didn't understand the concept of [Alien], shook his head. For the safety of the genius girl in front of him, he decided to stop himself from thinking anymore.

"Uncle Kenneth!"

Futaba happily drove the wind element to hover the mithril plate in front of Kenneth, dancing and smiling like a child less than 1.6 meters tall: "I've done it!"

Kenneth raised his hand and pressed down the piece of mithril substrate that seemed to want to smash his nose flat back in front of Futaba. He nodded calmly: "Yes, not bad."

"Hey hey hey."

Futaba giggled twice, then actually picked up the smaller Nibelung plant on the table and said enthusiastically: "Then I'll strike while the iron is hot and see if I can successfully 'same frequency' first! "

It's obvious that her intentions are not pure.

Otherwise, according to Futaba's usual character of procrastinating and relying on whatever she can, it is absolutely impossible for her to immediately start the next step after substantial progress has been made in a certain job. At least it depends on her mood. Rest for three to five days.

And the reason why she was so active this time was that this guy had no intention of successfully promoting the next steps from the beginning. He just wanted to make a failed attempt, waste a Nibelung root, and then exchange for more Nibelungs. root!

In Futaba's plan, even if Kenneth wasn't shocked when he saw what he had done just now, he would at least come to a conclusion similar to "This little beauty is a fortress" in his heart. In this Under the premise, as long as you accidentally make a mistake when using Nibelung roots to 'synchronize', and create an experimental accident that is excusable despite failure, you may be able to achieve more Nibelung roots after being given a small training. root.

"The experiment must be done step by step, and guard against arrogance and impetuosity. I will stop here for today. I will give you more materials and slowly work on the synchronization."

Kenneth, who was in Futaba's mind, casually threw two pounds of Nibelungs on his face, looking extremely handsome.

"The experiment should be carried out step by step, combining work and rest. We'll stop here for today. Don't waste materials."

But in reality, Kenneth used the hand of elements to hold down Futaba, forcibly ending the girl's bad habits, and then waved a strong wind, sweeping all the mithril substrates and Nibelungs on the table to the corner of the laboratory. In the storage cabinet, he slowly walked to the fireplace not far behind Futaba and sat down, and said leisurely: "Go and make a cup of tea."

【Cook for your aunt! 】

Futaba curled her lips, then put on a sweet and pleasant emoticon, trotted to a cabinet not far away that contained a small amount of daily necessities, and got busy, and soon brewed a cup of juicy, delicious and fragrant wine. The scented tea was brought to Kenneth: "Uncle Kenneth, drink tea!"

Kenneth nodded with satisfaction, took the tea cup and took a sip. He immediately put back the satisfaction that had just sprouted in his heart. Not only that, he even had a slight urge to quit tea.

Although Futaba doesn't have Ji Xiaoge's uncanny cooking talent at all, and she is good at making coffee because she stays up late all year round, her tea making skills are really hard to compliment. She can do this without making people vomit immediately. The level of performance is considered to be beyond the standard.

"sit."

Kenneth snapped his fingers, and the large chair in front of the experimental table slowly flew over and landed steadily on the other side in front of the fireplace: "Forget about that revolutionary experiment for the moment, I have something to think about. Let’s talk to you.”

Futaba quickly sat down on the chair obediently, then lowered her head with a red face, and whispered: "I'm sorry, I already have someone I like."

Kenneth was immediately stunned: "What did you say?"

"I... already have someone I like."

Futaba shook her body awkwardly, and twisted her white hands on her knees: "Call Annie."

"what is it call?"

"Annie."

"Grass."

"ah?"

"Nothing, I mean...okay."

Kenneth, who didn't intend to care too much about Futaba's private life, dropped the topic without expression and said straight to the point: "I want to talk to you about Academy City."

"Academy City?"

Futaba was stunned at first, and then he dug out the information he had recorded in his mind during his free time some time ago, and ran it through his mind at a speed unimaginable to ordinary people, waiting for the next chapter.

"That's right, Academy City."

Kenneth subconsciously picked up the tea at hand, and after hesitating for half a second, he put it back and said calmly: "I don't know how much you know about that place, and I don't intend to do too much for you. Popular science, but Diana has already applied for a place for you to participate in that meeting, in the name of the apprentice of Ana Ta Rasha, the vice president of the Salamun Mage Guild in the royal capital of the Violet Empire."

Futaba blinked in confusion and reacted for a while before nodding: "I remember that Instructor Diana mentioned it to me once before, saying that there was some triennial event over there and that he wanted to take me Go see the world.”

"See the world..."

Kenneth showed a slightly sarcastic smile and said softly: "Maybe, after all, you can indeed see many interesting things in that place, and there are many young people who are quite talented in the eyes of the world, but, little girl, you Remember, you are stronger than most of those people... maybe even all of them."

Futaba scratched his hair and smiled shyly: "Hey, actually I'm not that good~"

"In short, I rejected the application submitted by Diana and refused to allow you to participate in that meeting as a rookie of the Mages Guild."

Kenneth's face froze, and he paused for several seconds before speaking: "By the way, I also rejected her attempt to use her own name to let you claim that you are the heir to the 'Stars' line of the Achizolti family, the great astrologer Diana A. ·The idea of participating in this opportunity in the name of Achi Zolti's disciple, after all, as far as I know, your attainments in astrology are far less profound than in the field of magic."

"Eh?"

Futaba was stunned for a moment, and then quickly showed a refreshing and bright smile: "Then I will continue my research here. I don't like places with many people. As long as Uncle Kenneth, you are willing to give me a few more nigeria plants." Bolong..."

"My judgment is."

Kenneth interrupted Futaba calmly and said in a deep voice: "With your current attainments, you can attend that meeting as a scholar from the City of Miracles. The procedures will be completed tonight. You and Dai will be together after a while. Anna, let’s go together.”

"ah?!"

Futaba's little mouth opened slightly, stunned.

"In this way, those mediocre people who don't know the heights of heaven and earth will have no reason to harass you. After all, you represent the City of Miracles, the pinnacle of all mysteries in this world."

Kenneth finally laughed and took a sip of the delicate scented tea: "Diana will represent our Achizolti family at that meeting. Of course, what is really effective is her status as a great astrologer, and you are in principle On equal footing with her."

The girl waved her hands in a panic: "But I..."

"You are a person favored by talent, and you still have this level of qualifications."

Kenneth waved his hand and said with a smile: "But you don't need to feel any pressure. This trip is still mainly about learning and increasing your knowledge. As for the key part of the meeting, it will be led by the bottom seat of the Parliament of Truth, [Tiao Lvxian] Author] Mel Inz is in charge, and there is another person who came to the City of Miracles five years earlier than you and went in the name of a trainee of the Mages Guild, named Evie Lehman. Until they arrive in Academy City, they will Going with you and Diana.”

[Tsk, is my starting point too high? I always feel that the bosses of the Parliament of Truth are so worthless. 】

Futaba vomited in his heart, and nodded obediently at the same time: "Okay, Uncle Kenneth, I will definitely be obedient and not get into trouble."

"Remember, little girl, you represent the City of Miracles, so others should be afraid of causing trouble for you, not you."

Kenneth said lightly the sentence he regretted most in his life, then his expression changed and he lowered his voice slightly: "Finally, besides what I just said, there is actually one more thing..."

Futaba nodded vigorously and looked at Kenneth seriously: "What is it, Uncle Kenneth?"

The latter opened his mouth, but for the rare moment, no words came out.

[Haha, hahahahahaha, I knew I would have to get around to this matter sooner or later! 】

"Uncle Kenneth?"

Futaba laughed wildly in his heart while looking at each other innocently.

After a while, Kenneth sighed softly and asked: "Have you ever heard of... the name Frank Hughes?"

"Frank Hughes?"

Futaba tilted her head, then clapped her hands suddenly, and said with a smile: "Of course I have heard it! Instructor Diana told me about Mr. Frank every day before, ah! That's right, that's right! I heard that they met in Academy City, and that person seemed to be very, very nice to Teacher Diana, making her obsessed with him all day long! But they are very good lovers!"

"..."

Kenneth clenched his fists subconsciously and remained silent for a long time before squeezing out two words through his teeth: "Absurd."

It is necessary to mention that as a cousin, Kenneth does not have any abnormal feelings for Diana. In fact, he already has a fiancée with a prominent family background, gentle personality, and understanding. This reaction is entirely because he, who is much older than Diana, has put himself into the role of an old father. No old father in the world will be angry with any pig who wants to give him cabbage. Feeling good.

Especially after listening to Diana's hesitant explanations a few days ago, Kenneth almost didn't have time to think and concluded that his innocent cousin had been deceived!

But even so, as the ninth seat of the Council of Truth in the City of Miracles, as the [Sage of the Fog Moon] who is a household name in the mage world, and as the heir and master of the "Crescent Moon" lineage of the Achizolti family, There was no way Kenneth was going to do anything to that damn Frank himself.

Taking a step back, what if that Frank is really a good person, at least a good person who loves his cousin wholeheartedly?

Finally, after thinking for a while, Kenneth came up with a solution.

"As far as I know, that Frank Hughes will meet Diana in Academy City, and I hope that you, who is close to and trusted by Diana, can conduct a detailed investigation on that person."

Kenneth tilted his chin, a flash of coldness flashing across his face: "If that person has bad behavior, find an opportunity to kill him."

"Eh? You mean kill, kill kill kill kill?!"

"Yes, you don't want your beloved mentor Diana to be deceived by bad people, right?"

"But I...I have never killed anyone since I was a child! I have never even killed Nikachu!"

"It doesn't matter. People with bad character are not worthy of being called human beings, not even Nikaqiu."

"Then what is bad conduct?"

"For example, not washing your hands before eating..."

"Clam?"

"Anyway, I'll leave this to you."

"Uncle Kenneth, I really can't do it. I'm very timid. Even..."

"Ten Nibelungs."

"This is not about the Nibelungs. I..."
