"Well... after such a long time, I didn't expect that there are still people who can come to this pot of heaven and earth..."
A voice came, and I looked for it, and found that it was a girl about 12 or 3 years old sitting not far away.
It was a thin girl with fair skin that was almost transparent, wearing a black dress, and even her hair was as black as ink, with red eyes.
She was wearing a loose black dress with layers of lace and ruffles, and metal gauntlets and rough waist armor wrapped around her body.It was a ceremonial formal dress reminiscent of medieval knights, but it was a peculiar dress that couldn't be called a dress or armor.
The girl met Lu Yao's eyes, and she narrowed her eyes slightly, "Is it still the 'son of Pandora and Epimetheus'? Hmm...you also have a familiar aura...I see, I see. No wonder. Well, it doesn’t matter, being able to come here is proof that you belong to the chosen one.”
Who are you?
Lu Yao originally wanted to say this, but his left hand felt hot, and he found a line of strange words suddenly appeared on his ring.Lu Yao narrowed his eyes slightly, but did not read directly.
"Don't you want to read it?" The black-haired girl tilted her head, her delicate and lovely face like a doll showed no special expression, "Since you have the key, you can sing the words of the contract."
"Is that so..." Lu Yao looked at the girl's face, his golden eyes sparkling with a little smile, he suddenly laughed, "Well then, since you fell in love with me at first sight, then make an oath here .”
"One, love at first sight? What nonsense are you talking about—" The girl choked on Lu Yao's words, her fair little face blushed slightly, she didn't know whether it was from anger or shame, she closed the book, "Listen well Well, I just made a preliminary approval because you have the power of Hecate... It doesn't mean that I have fully approved you! So don't be too arrogant!"
"Yes." Lu Yao said a few perfunctory words, "What you say is what you say."
"Don't talk to me in this tone—cough, let's start." The girl coughed lightly, "First, tell me your name."
"My name is Lu Yao."
"Lu Yao, Lu Yao." The girl nodded, and then her face became serious, "—Lu Yao. Now I give you the right to open the door."
Lu Yao raised his left hand, and with the huge spell power, the purple-black ring shone with dazzling brilliance, and the original simple ring showed gorgeous patterns and red gemstones, and he recited the sacred words: " My question is, are you a human being?"
"No, I am the sky, the sky in the pot."
pS: The title is better for two-in-one.
50. The King's Invitation
The third power has undergone a slight change.
'Is there any more ability that belongs to the nature of God? 'The black-haired girl had a certain connection with herself, similar to becoming her own authority.But it is different from the Great Mystery Ritual presided over by Pandora. It directly bypasses Pandora and directly grants divine power to obtain an ability that is not power but is similar to power.
However, it seems that because the divine power of the black-haired girl cannot reach the level of the God of Disobedience, it is actually a supplement to Lu Yao's third power.
In other words, because Lu Yao's third power combined with the girl's power, it actually had an effect similar to evolution.Although it won't completely become a new power, it seems that the function of activating the spell has changed.However, the core's ability to absorb and store mana is no problem.
"Phew...then, the contract is established. King, please give me more advice in the future." The girl said calmly, "By the way, just call me Dalian from now on."
Lu Yao nodded.
After Dalian said "see you later", it was only a flash in front of her eyes, and she found herself back in the British Library.
"Mr. Yao!" Alice noticed Lu Yao's appearance and rushed over, "Just now you disappeared suddenly... Did you really find the other legendary library?"
"Well, I did find the original magic book, do you want to read it?" Lu Yao felt that there was nothing to hide, even if people knew about power, it was nothing.
If the exposure of power is indeed a threat, I am afraid that the council of sages would have been wiped out by Vauban long ago.
Just because he knew that the exposure of his power was not fatal, Vauban didn't care about the tricks of the council of wise men at all.Watching a group of ants trying to fight against him and making all kinds of meaningless efforts may also be a pleasure for the oldest demon king.
"If it's possible..." Alice blinked, feeling that Lu Yao was harboring malicious intentions.
"That's fine." Lu Yao made an 'OK' gesture and recited the words: "My question is, are you human?"
No, I am the sky, the sky in the pot.
On the dark purple ring on the middle finger of his left hand, after the ruby flickered for a moment, a thick clay tablet appeared in his hand. The writing on the clay tablet was not any kind of writing invented by humans, it was a little crazy The breath makes people dizzy at a glance.
"This is...?" Alice held her forehead, feeling her head hurt just looking at it, so she quickly turned her gaze elsewhere.Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.
"The magic book "The R'lyeh Text (The R'lyeh Text)"." Lu Yao explained.
"Is that the magic book that praises evil gods?" Alice was taken aback, "I heard that just looking at it will make people mentally polluted!"
"Yes, and this is still part of the original, recording the part about deep divers. Do you want to take a closer look?"
"No! Take it away!" Alice waved her hand, "I'm not Campione!"
The author of the magic guide book called R'layeh Text is unknown, but it is said to have been written around 3000 BC.
The whole article is in praise of the Lord of R'lyeh, the Great Cthulhu (Great Cthulhu).
It tells the story of Cthulhu's servant, the deep diver, the father and mother god of the deep diver, the son of Cthulhu, and the star family of Cthulhu, as well as the sinking of Mu Dalu and R'lyeh.
The earliest ones were originally written in languages other than humans, and were later copied in various languages.The oldest surviving manuscript is completed by the ancient Chinese Xia Dynasty script. In addition, there are also English and Italian translations.And the clay tablet in Lu Yao's hand was one of the original ones.
It is suspected to be contaminated with the breath of evil gods, and ordinary people will collapse when they see it.
Only a monster like Campione can come into close contact with this taboo phantom book and even use it without any influence.
"Although it is the original, it may not be as easy to use as the copy. If you want to bring out the full effect, you need to take out all the clay boards, which is very troublesome." Lu Yao put the clay board back, "But Unexpectedly, Danterian's bookshelf actually has this kind of magic book."
"Danterian's bookshelf?" Alice breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Lu Yao put the magic book back, and at the same time became interested in Lu Yao's words, "It's the one in the legend that has a collection of more than 90 bookshelves. Is it the forbidden bookshelf of the forbidden magic book?"
"Huh? You know?"
"Of course! There are many treasures with unknown origins. Although some people say that it was created by Hecate, the god of magic and magic power, there is no evidence to prove it." Alice's eyes glowed a little, and she seemed excited. "Where is it?" ? Can you show me?"
"Do you mean that you want me to use my third authority here at the British Library? I don't care, and those people may dare not speak out against me, but you, Alice..."
"Forget it!" Alice said without hesitation.Then, Alice hesitated to speak for a while, and Lu Yao thought that Alice was thinking of some crooked idea again.I saw Alice pointing behind Lu Yao, "Actually, I've been wanting to ask for a while now, but I didn't have a chance. From the moment you read the words, it suddenly appeared. Mr. Yao, the girl behind you is..."
The girl behind?
Lu Yao glanced at it out of the corner of his eye, and found that the girl with black hair and red pupils was hiding behind him, looking at Alice not far away with vigilant eyes.Like a shy child, clinging tightly to the guardian.
It's Darian.
After touching Da Lian's head, Lu Yao explained: "In the power of the godslayer, isn't there a kind of ability to "show body"? This child is the "manifestation" of my power. You call her Dalyan will do."
"That's it." Alice nodded, expressing her understanding.
After all, it was this girl who responded to Lu Yao's words just now.That's how Alice knew that this girl had some kind of relationship with Lu Yao.
"Appearance" generally has two manifestations, similar to how the Marquis of Vauban turns into a werewolf or giant wolf, or the black prince turns into lightning. This is the "appearance" directly on the body.There is also a kind of summoning, such as the three goddesses of revenge who are the second power of the black prince, and the powerful King Kong who is the first power of the leader of Luo Hao, all belong to the summoning.
In fact, it is not wrong to regard Dalian as the "manifestation" of the third power, but if you want to go deeper, it is actually more similar to the symbiotic relationship between the six Boluolian and Aphrodite.
"Hello, Dali'an, my name is Alice Louise Of Nafal, nice to meet you." Alice leaned forward and showed a small face to Dali'an.
Da Lian turned her face away, with an attitude of keeping strangers away.
Alice's smile stiffened a bit, but she was not discouraged, "Dalian, don't be so indifferent, can you talk to me for a while?"
Dalian simply shrank her whole body behind Lu Yao.
Psychology of frustration.
Alice felt it for the first time, the first time when Her Royal Highness, the Princess of White Miko, the next speaker of the Wise Council, destined to become the most elegant lady in the UK, encountered her futility in courtship.
Glancing at the smiling Lu Yao, he seemed to have no intention of helping at all.
"How to please the little girl..." Alice thought for a while, and asked Dalian cautiously: "Would you like to have a cup of tea together? It's almost time for afternoon tea, my family's Darjeeling Black tea and scones are both very good.”
Darian opened her eyes slightly.After swallowing her saliva, she seemed to be talking to herself in a low voice: "I, I, Dalien, even if I die, die outside, and jump off Big Ben, I won't be caught by someone who doesn't know where it came from." The wild woman was tempted!"
Seeing this, Alice secretly thought there was something going on in her heart, and she needed to step up her efforts.
"In addition to scones, there are also desserts such as macarons, mousse, and fruit tarts." Alice clasped her hands together, telling the beauty of English afternoon tea: "The top layer is a variety of pastries, and the middle layer It’s a scone with clotted cream and jam, and the bottom layer is a sandwich, and I especially recommend the smoked salmon ham finger sandwich.”
Center the red heart.
"...Is the scone served with whipped cream?" Dalian seemed to have experienced a battle between heaven and man in her heart, and finally asked in an unusually serious tone.
"Of course! And black tea can also add jam for you!"
Alice smiled and looked happy.
Sure enough, Alice who is serious is invincible!
Da Lian came out from behind Lu Yao and walked towards Alice.She stopped and looked back: "My lord! What are you doing so procrastinating, we are leaving!"
Lu Yao and Alice looked at each other and smiled together.
"By the way, Alice, have you picked out any books?"
"Well... the time is too short, I just read a few books, but I can't find anything that suits me." Alice was a little dejected, "It would be great if I could see ten lines at a glance."
"Well, if that's the case, would you like to try "Book of Wisdom"?"
"Is it also a magic book?"
"Well, Episode 03: Liber Sapientiae." Lu Yao nodded, "A magic book that can infinitely improve people's wisdom."
"Wisdom books from the Old Testament of the Bible?" Alice's eyes widened. "Is there such a thing in Danterian's bookshelf?"
As a classic, the Bible is similar in nature to the R'lyye text—the R'lyye text is actually a classic, a psalm praising God.The classics that are currently circulating in the world are basically copies.It was originally thought to be stored somewhere, but I didn't expect it to be in Danterian's bookshelf.
"Hmph!" Dalian, who was walking in front, snorted softly, "Although the stupid little girl over there does seem to lack wisdom, but if you are not mentally prepared, I do not recommend you to read wisdom books."
"Why? Are there any side effects?"
"Wisdom and knowledge are also a kind of power. People who get the book of wisdom can easily conquer and destroy the world. However, this kind of wisdom may distort a person's personality... To put it simply, it is After gaining insight into everything and understanding the truth of the world, people will change.” Glancing at Alice, Dalien replied: “If you still want to maintain your current self, then don’t touch the book of wisdom. Of course , if you feel that you are stupid, if you must, it’s not that you can’t show it to you.”
"...Dalian's suggestion is like this, what do you think?"
"Well, forget it." Alice resolutely gave up.
"That means I didn't find the book I wanted."
"It's not that you can't come in the future, let's talk about it later." In any case, Alice is considered noble in England, and after she takes office as the speaker of the Council of Wise Men, she can come at any time. The guy was taken, not complete."
"So be it."
Walking out of the library door, the knight who was working hard at the door hurried up and bowed respectfully: "My lord, do you need to take a break? Do you want me to arrange a meal for you?"
"No need, you go and tell the curator, just say that I am satisfied, the contract is completed, and we will not owe each other from now on."
"Already, already?" The knight was a little surprised.
How many collections there are, the knight still has a little idea.Although part of it was plundered by another king of England, it cannot be finished in one day.Originally, the knights had already prepared for the task, which could range from a few months to a few years, but they didn't expect that they would be ready soon.
"Yes."
Lu Yao nodded affirmatively.
Then, without further explanation, he walked to Ericsson, who was notified by Alice, and drove the car out to welcome himself and the others back to Alice's house.
Looking at the backs of the three of them going away, the knight let out a sigh of emotion: "Are you really worthy of being a godslayer? But... is there one more person?"
After returning to Alice's house, Alice kept her promise and prepared afternoon tea.
English afternoon tea can be traced back to the middle of the seventeenth century.The seventh Duchess of Bedford at that time would order her servants to prepare a tea tray with butter, bread and cake at 4 pm every day, because she found herself hungry at 4 pm every day, and the fashionable dinner time at that time was 8pm.
She soon found the new habit so addictive that she invited some other women to join it.Afterwards, this tea break quickly became a social trend.
Well, in the final analysis, it is a simple meal between lunch and dinner for the rich and noble.
Although with the development and progress of society, afternoon tea is no longer out of reach, but not everyone has time to enjoy a leisurely and exquisite English afternoon tea.
Sitting in a lounge by the window.
Although it is not particularly spacious and luxurious, the atmosphere is very relaxed.The maid pushed the dining cart in, probably for entertaining. The three-tiered shelf prepared by Alice was unexpectedly large, and there were simple meals on it.Dalian, who was sitting next to Lu Yao, saw the arrival of the three-tiered shelf, her eyes seemed to shine.
"Mr. Yao, is your work done now?"
"Ah."
"That means I'm going back soon." Alice sighed slightly.
"It's actually nothing special."
"That's great, let's stay for a while longer—I wanted to say that." Alice stood up, and the maid on the side handed Alice a portfolio.Then Alice handed it to Lu Yao and said, "This is the document from the king of China... the leader of the Five Hells, the martial arts king Luo Cuilian and the leader Luo Hao from the south of the Yangtze River gave you the document."
"A document from one godslayer to another godslayer? A letter of challenge?"
"According to the general situation, this is indeed a possibility." Alice shook her head, "According to the envoy who submitted the document, Mr. Yao, it should be your identity, although You haven't mentioned your origin, but judging by your appearance and name, you should be Chinese, right?"
"That's right."
"That Luo Hao leader, because you are the second Chinese who succeeded in killing God, seems to think that you can be regarded as a brother and sister, and wants to invite you to her place."
While listening to Alice's explanation, Lu Yao opened the sealed portfolio and read the letters inside.
Not long after, he sighed: "The brutality of that leader should be comparable to that of the Balkan Peninsula... I really can't believe that we can have a good meeting and exchange. It's almost like a Hongmen banquet."
"Do you want to refuse?"
