30 Give you a chance to pit me(1/2)
The glass window of the hotel's single room was dirty, covered with dust and some traces of fingerprints.
But the silver moon, which rose quietly in place of the setting sun, could still shine its light through the glass window onto Mellen's right cheek without any hindrance.
The young man with thick black hair was sleeping on the feather bed in the room with a peaceful expression, holding a parchment book in his hand, breathing evenly, as if he was in a deep sleep.
However, in fact, he was in his "dream", looking around curiously.
He became the protagonist of the storybook, and the environment he was in was the other person's home.
This home is not big, just a hunter's cabin standing deep in the jungle.
In addition to the oil paintings of a family of three hanging on the walls of the cabin, there is also a stuffed deer head with a pair of majestic antlers.
On the side of the specimen, there is a half-open window.
The forest outside the window is dense, and the sunlight penetrates from the canopy of the trees, making it appear speckled on the vegetable patch in front of the window.
The weather here was completely different from the sky outside. Mellen lay in front of the window and took a few glances, and found that there were actually a few rabbits grazing deep in the forest.
"Is it so real?"
Although he was secretly amazed, he did not go out to wonder whether those animals were real. Instead, he focused on the oil painting again.
In other words, the bottom of the oil painting.
Below the oil painting is the fireplace, and on the table at the top of the fireplace, apart from a mostly melted white candle, there is also a book quietly placed.
He walked over and picked up the booklet and looked at it. The explanations line by line came into Meren's eyes——
"Hello, descendant of the Refaeli family, I am Anthony Refaeli. I think you must have heard about me from your father or ancestors."
"But that's not the point. What we need to emphasize now is this book."
"What you are watching now is a magical storybook, crafted by the world's greatest wizard, Robin Refaeli."
"Its existence will make our Refaeli family prosper forever."
"The premise is that you, and the next tribesmen who read this book, can make good use of it."
…
The synopsis is very concise, but in conjunction with yesterday's massacre, these words seem a bit absurd.
While secretly cursing, Mellen continued to look down and saw the key point.
"The tribesmen who enter the storybook will condense into three different images based on their temperament and body."
"Those with a strong heart, regardless of gender, appear as male protagonists."
"A person whose mind is occupied by love and desire will appear like a mistress."
"The purest one will be the daughter..."
…
There are a lot of bells and whistles, but the core use is actually to strengthen the wizard's third hand.
After reading the booklet in general, Mellen came to a conclusion.
It's just that this kind of reinforcement is completely different from what he knew before, or what the old butler wrote in his letter.
To put it simply, the strengthening effect of this book is continuous and cannot be obtained by reading it once.
But this kind of continuous strengthening has great limitations.
First of all, as the protagonist of the storybook, Mellen needs to "adventure" along the storyline.
However, it is not enough for him to go alone. He must be accompanied by his daughter or wife. After passing the "first level", a strengthening will come and then the second level will be opened.
And if all three quotas for this book are used, then there will be another level of restriction - three people are required to work together.
This is a very strange setting.
According to the author of this booklet, the reason for this may be that the great Robin Refaeli chose to abandon his wife and daughter in order to pursue the ultimate wizard path, and became an emotionless "level up"
machine".
But he regretted this decision very much when he was surrounded by loneliness in his later years.
So I created this book, hoping to continue the family forever and warn future generations about what is most important.
It sounded pretty good, but it stumped Mellen.
Because this book was sent by Mrs. Chelsea, he still needs to send it back after "reading it", but he is not qualified to decide who will read the book next.
In other words, if he wants to use this book to strengthen himself, he needs to go on an adventure with two strangers.
However, if it were a normal adventure plot, it would be nothing.
But judging from the scenes he saw before falling asleep, this plot was actually not that normal.
In other words, not so serious...
"The lady obviously doesn't know the specific usage of this book."
The thought flashed through Mellen's mind, "Otherwise, you would be seducing me, but how is that possible?"
This can also prove that the wife sent the book to him as soon as she obtained it.
How to get it?
Coupled with the massacre incident that I heard about during the day, the answer seems to be self-evident.
"Ferocious, domineering, powerful, and full of confidence..."
Mellen blinked his eyes, his heart ready to move with admiration.
"such a pity……"
Sighing, he put the "manual" in his hand back to its original place.
Mellen had given up hope of benefiting from the book.
Because he didn't think there would be any strangers who could go on an "adventure" with him.
Moreover, who can be sure whether the next person to use the remaining two quotas is a boy or a girl?
Mellen couldn't help but shudder when he thought of the scenario of two or three grown men teaming up for an "adventure".
As a result, he didn't bother to observe any hidden details in this place. Following the instructions, he raised his hand and pinched his thigh hard.
So he suddenly woke up from the "dream" in pain.
After rubbing the area that still seemed to be in phantom pain, Mellen stood up and put the book back into the black wooden box.
Then he saw that the sapphire on the surface of his Book of Secret Words was constantly shining with light.
That is the prompt that will appear when there is a "new message".
When he opened it and looked at it, Mellen couldn't help but be startled.
"It's strange that the old examiner actually defends me?"
Mellen, who had no idea about his wizarding talent, felt this was a bit strange.
He even doubted whether what he did last night had been exposed.
But he's not very worried about this, so what if he's exposed?
He didn't do anything bad.
Mellen is thinking about one thing now, and that is whether to go back.
If you want to be with a rich woman, or if you want to be Mrs. Chelsea's apprentice, you must go back to the Mixed-blood Association.
But when I return to the association, I have to face a little yellow guy with an unknown purpose...
Thinking of this, Mellen didn't hesitate much, took out a quill and a piece of letter paper from his magic pocket, and started writing on it——
"Kevin Felix is human."
"I'm human too."
"So I know about Kevin Felix's latest plot."
After finishing writing, Mellen lowered his eyes.
Picture after picture emerged from my mind.
Kevin pacing back and forth in the room with a sad face, Kevin gnashing his teeth and cursing, Kevin arriving at the gate of a manor, Kevin riding on horseback thoughtfully...
The successive pictures are obviously incomplete, and it is obvious that most of the people involved in this matter are higher than Mellen.
But the core of Kevin is always clear.
This is actually because he, who seems to come from a big family, is on the same level as Melen.
Before actually entering the wizard school, all wizards are at the same level. Mellen has known this for a long time.
It is said that rashly raising the level before enrolling will be detrimental to future development.
So it was very easy for Meren to know that the other party really wanted to do something at the banquet.
But there are no clues about the specific means because of the involvement of higher-level wizards...
To be continued...
