On campus, downstairs of the teaching building of the Academy of Occultism, Ren was holding a camera and focusing it.
Beside the lawn, in front of the sculpture of Emperor William, Arturia stood upright.
She was wearing a bachelor's robe, a square black hat with black tassels, a black tie, a purple hanging cloth on her shoulders, a dark plain skirt and gray leather shoes.
This kind of dress makes her look calm, elegant and dignified.
At this time, Artoria was facing the camera, showing a bright smile, which eclipsed the flowers blooming in the nearby flower bed.
"Click!"
When Ren pressed the shutter, the light and shadow were captured instantly, making it a very memorable photo.
After asking her to change positions a few more times and take a few photos, he put down the camera, walked over and said with a smile:
"happy graduation."
"Um."
Arturia nodded, the smile on her face did not diminish, she puffed up her chest proudly and said, "My academic qualifications are higher than yours now."
It took her more than a week to successfully complete the tedious process of theoretical examinations in various subjects, practical exercises, graduation thesis design and defense, and graduated from Melova University.
Moreover, she obtained a bachelor's degree in history and a bachelor's degree in occultism at the same time.
"That's not necessarily the case."
Renn threw the camera into a blue space door. In her doubtful eyes, he smiled and said playfully, "A few days ago, Bushen University mailed me my master's degree certificate in occult science."
He studied at Bushen University, majoring in history and occultism, but dropped out of school.
At that time, he didn't even have a diploma, he just graduated.
Later, he became famous after fighting in the "Dark Cave" of the Demon Realm, and the university sent him his graduation certificate and bachelor's degree in occult science.
A few days ago, the corruption of Count Maclay was revealed, causing a nationwide sensation. At the same time, the name of Viscount Ackermann once again resounded throughout Farolland.
Then, Bushen University sent me a master's degree certificate in mysticism...
When Arturia heard the news for the first time, her emerald green eyes widened slightly and she said:
"But you have never been to Bushen University again!"
"But I just got a master's degree." Ren said with a smile.
His strength is getting stronger and stronger, and he is in the limelight. Even his alma mater is actively trying to catch up with him and fawn over him.
Artoria: "..."
(￣へ￣)
She put her hands on her hips, puffed up her face, and said somewhat unhappily:
"Following the crowd, bowing to the rich and powerful, huh, pheasant university."
Seeing her depressed look, Ren laughed dumbly and said:
"Don't say goodbye, this is the normal state of this world. Bushen University is not as bad as you said. This is a top-notch university, and that one is at least a first-class and mid-level institution."
The cheap sister is very competitive.
She has to compete and compare with him in almost every aspect of life, study, and fighting, and she is proud to be better than him in every aspect.
She would be happy when she won, or depressed and unhappy when she lost. She would never hide her emotions and thoughts in front of him.
Seeing his embarrassed look, Arturia curled her lips and said:
"That's not what you said before. You said Bushen University is second-rate."
"I was really second-rate before, but after I graduated, I became first-rate."
If it can train someone like him, it must be a first-class university. Needless to say?
Artoria: "..."
Shit, narcissistic.
"Let's go and take some pictures elsewhere." Ren said with a smile on his face.
"Um."
Arturia nodded, and then without any hesitation, took the initiative to hold his hand, smiling like a flower, and took him around the campus.
Next, they went to the teaching buildings of other colleges, the Central Heroes Memorial Square, the sports hall, the Four Seasons Botanical Garden, the Ancient City Museum and other places and took photos at some campus attractions.
The siblings behaved very intimately, making noises and laughter along the way.
Even outsiders can see how good the relationship between the two is. Most couples and siblings on campus are not as natural, harmonious and warm as their relationship.
At dusk, the crimson clouds are like fire, and the afterglow of the setting sun seems to dye every brick and tile on the campus with a light red paint.
The breeze blew by, and everything seemed tender and tender.
Artoria stood outside the gate of the campus, her long and silky hair flying gently in the wind, and the fair and tender skin on her face blushed slightly under the setting sun, making her look charming.
She raised her hand and brushed her bangs gently, looking at the simple and elegant stone gate tower of the campus with nostalgia.
Got to go.
This place has special meaning to the girl. It is the place where she starts to study and live normally every day like an ordinary girl.
This fulfilling, peaceful and beautiful college life has become a precious memory deep in her heart.
Ren had been holding her gentle, jade-like hand. Seeing that she was distracted, he suddenly hugged her and held her in his arms.
With a clear smile on his face, he lowered his head, looked directly into her beautiful emerald eyes with clear eyes, and said softly:
"You've graduated and it's time to go."
"Um."
With an intoxicating smile on her face, Arturia closed her eyes and nestled comfortably in his arms, her skirt swaying in the wind.
She no longer has to hide her occasional weakness.
Under the dusk glow, Ren hugged her, turned his back to the campus gate, and strode away. The two of them stretched their shadows on the street without distinguishing each other...
…………
It took a long time to drive on the road, and when I got home, it was already 7pm.
Inside the Ackerman family's small villa, the lights are brightly lit.
As night falls, a bright moon hangs outside the window, and the refreshing wind flows in through the balcony window, causing the glass lamps on the ceiling to sway gently and the wind chimes to sing softly.
In the bathroom, Ren had already put the hot water on and threw the pansy petals and grass stems into the white ceramic bathtub.
"Why did you throw this away?"
Arturia walked in wearing slippers.
She had taken off her coat, her hair was disheveled, and she was left with only black lace underwear with exquisite patterns, which made her skin look whiter and more delicate.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Renne glanced at her ordinary airport and said casually:
"Using pansy medicinal bath is not only good for the skin, but can also enlarge the breasts."
Artoria: "..."
(￢?￢)
"Get out."
"..."
Ren shrugged, ignored her annoyed gaze, and walked out calmly.
"Also, no peeking."
"Who cares? If you peek at the widow next door, she won't look at you."
"..."
With a bang, the bathroom door was slammed shut. It was obvious that Artoria was very angry and almost wanted to switch back to her adult role.
Ren laughed at his cheap sister every day and sat lazily on the sofa.
With a swipe of his hand, he searched accurately, and the "Wand of Nature" flew out from a blue swirling space door.
This sacred object of the ancient elves has a strange shape. It has a six-section elliptical ring structure from top to bottom. It is getting smaller and smaller. It is made of translucent material and looks like jade but not jade. It looks like gold but not gold. It looks like wood but not wood. The color
They are white, cyan, red, blue, yellow and black.
There are forces of light and dark attributes flowing at both ends of the scepter, and in the middle are the four elemental energies of wind, fire, water, and earth that cycle back and forth and are uncertain in life and death.
The entire scepter exudes an atmosphere of simplicity and vicissitudes of life. Although it has six joints, it is completely natural, as if it was born this way without any trace of carving.
At first glance, this thing is very simple and definitely extraordinary.
Ren once experimented, and even with all his strength, he could not leave a trace on the scepter.
Moreover, the design and shape of the staff of nature is a bit like a miniature version of the mage tower, with a positive energy pool, a pool of the four elements of wind, fire, water, and earth, and a negative energy pool, forming a cycle.
"Don't let me down."
Ren took out the crystal bottle, unscrewed the cork, and slowly poured Aunt Lucy's blood on the scepter.
Buzzing~
After absorbing the blood of the elf, the stick of nature immediately started to tremble and slowly floated into the air. The ring on the stick body was filled with six kinds of radiance: white, green, red, blue, yellow and black.
After a moment, the six colors of light were completely intertwined, as if chaos was opening up, and a slight tremor made all things resonate.
Ren's body trembled, and he felt his soul shake.
The brilliance of the scepter dissipated, space ripples appeared at the top, and a stone box flew out from it.
When Ren picked up the stone box, he felt his palms getting cold, as if he was touching a piece of ice that had lasted for thousands of years.
For high-level extraordinary beings, this bit of coldness may be nothing, but for ordinary people, their blood and muscles may freeze.
Click~
He opened the stone box and found a piece of wood inside. In the middle was a transparent crystal that looked like ice. There seemed to be three seeds sealed inside.
"It's on, what is this?"
At this time, Artoria had finished bathing and came out wearing a loose white bathrobe.
She stood behind the sofa, hugged his neck with her arms, blinked, and stared curiously at the crystal that exuded a cold breath in the box.
"The Holy Elf Tree, or the seed of the World Tree?"
Renn picked up the cyan wood piece padded inside the box, which had lines of ancient writing on it.
The amazing thing is that although he can't understand these words, he can understand the meaning as long as he scans them with a ray of mental power.
"World Tree Seeds?" Artoria was startled and asked, "What's the use?"
Ren held the wooden block and recited the content above:
"The seeds are implanted in the field. In the first three months, regular watering with spring water containing vigorous vitality will allow the World Tree to grow with the field...
Finally, when the domain is completed and turned into a small world, and then the mature World Tree is refined, can it become... a Star Lord, a True God, the Demon God of the Abyss or the Lord of Hell?!"
At the end of the sentence, he almost bit his tongue.
"this……"
Arturia also looked surprised and said: "The true god should be the one we understand, but what about the Star Lord, the Abyss Demon God, and the Lord of Hell?"
"How would I know."
Ren rolled his eyes, his face was very surprised, but also a little confused.
Why don't the elves use such a precious seed, but seal it in this scepter?
Moreover, through this, we can get a glimpse of the leopard. The elves have long known about the realm above the fifth level. Why was such a powerful civilization destroyed in one day?
Arturia picked up the cold crystal block and stared at the World Tree seeds inside, with a puzzled look on her face:
"Historical books say that the demons ruined the elven civilization, but looking at it now, I don't think they have this ability."
The Dark Lord is very powerful, but the elves are not weak either. It is really hard to imagine that the ancient elven empire would be wiped out overnight.
With the strength of the Elf Empire, no matter how poorly it performs, it can still fight the demons for several years or decades, right?
"Forget it, don't think too much. There are so many weird and bizarre places in this world. A powerful divine being like Lathander, who is at the peak of the sixth level, is dead. It is not incomprehensible that the Elf Empire has perished."
Ren shook his head, too lazy to explore those ancient secrets.
To put it harshly, although they are not weak now, they are not the strongest either. It is best not to pursue the secret of the Elf Empire's demise.
If they encounter any unknown danger, they may not be able to withstand it.
According to the records of some excavated ruins, there were more than a dozen great arcanists in the Elf Empire back then, and each of them is now a legendary mage of at least five levels, but they still fell into disgrace overnight...
Rather than exploring the secrets, it is more important to improve yourself first.
Ren pulled out the magic knife and carefully cut the cold ice crystal into three parts.
Then, Artoria carefully controlled the holy flame, slowly melted and thawed two of the ice crystals, and took out two World Tree seeds.
The seeds of the World Tree look very ordinary and unremarkable, without any abnormalities.
Ren shrugged: "I suspect that the elves are bragging, maybe they just put in three cabbage seeds at random."
Artoria: "..."
(￢_￢;), do you think others are as boring as you?
She picked up a thawed World Tree seed and was about to throw it into the field to try.
"etc."
Ren stopped her and brought the seeds over. The color in his blue eyes faded, and they were completely filled with pure cold silver light.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The "Eye of Deception" was opened to the maximum, and he carefully observed the three seeds inside and out.
It seems like a great opportunity, but there might be some plan or trap.
To err on the side of caution, it is better to do thorough research first.
Within the transcendent vision of the "Eye of Breaking Delusion", the seeds of the World Tree show an extraordinary aspect. Even if they are still seeds, they are swallowing the force. There are extremely complicated colored lights, time, space, light and darkness and
The four major elements, etc., seem to contain all the mysteries of the world.
A rare treasure indeed.
However, Ren also discovered something unusual, a strange green light lingering on the seeds.
This imprint is not part of the seed.
Ren's face turned cold, his heart moved, and he muttered silently:
[Uncle System, can you clear the imprint on it? This is your reward.]
System: [The rewarded item is [The Rod of Nature], not the World Tree Seed.]
Renn: "..."
Leverage essence.
He tried it and found that he could not remove the trace of brand on the seeds.
Under the erosion and crushing force of the stars, the strange green light was still wrapped around the seed like gangrene attached to the bone.
Ren's expression turned cold: [Apply to remove the brand.]
System: [Tip: Clearing the remaining spiritual imprints of the Outer Gods on the three World Tree seeds requires consuming one mission point. Are you sure?]
Outer gods, dependents?
Ren's face twitched, feeling that the world was really fucked up.
He endured the heartache and said: "OK, clear it!"
A hazy white light passed by, and the three seeds shook. The strange green light wrapped around them instantly collapsed and was completely annihilated.
"Okay, now it's ready for use." Renn then threw a seed to his sister.
This operation left Artoria stunned.
She was a little careless. She didn't expect that there would be holes in the seeds, let alone that the mission points could be used in this way.
She opened her mouth and said: "How did you know-"
"hehe."
Ren sneered and said, "I don't believe that the elves would not be tempted by such a good thing, but would generously leave it to future generations."
The supreme holy object that can help others advance to the sixth level is sealed in the scepter and has instructions written on it... This is not a conspiracy. He is live broadcasting Chixiang.
"I was too careless."
Artoria nodded and reflected deeply on her shortcomings.
This time she was indeed careless, unlike Ren, who sometimes seemed to be laughing and joking and looking like a fool, but in his heart he was very cautious and cautious, almost delusional about being persecuted.
Next, the green ring under Artoria's feet lit up, opening a corner of the storm field, throwing the World Tree seeds into it, and watering a tube of resurrection spring.
The skin of the seed cracked instantly, green buds emerged, flew into the wind and took root in the center of the storm field. Countless real and illusory root systems extended from the roots, and quickly condensed into the storm field.
At this moment, the storm force in Artoria surged, then slowly fell back.
She immediately checked the panel.
————
Name: Kate Reinhardt (Artoria Pendragon)
Gender: Female
Age: Unknown (has been hidden according to the request of the favored one)
Evaluation: In the fifth level, it corresponds to the Demon Prince of Darkness.
————
After the system version 2.0, the panel has become much simpler. Except for the most important skills and weapons and equipment, the rest are not displayed.
"After implanting the World Tree, the field has become much more stable and is still being slowly optimized and improved. As a result, I have been promoted to a level."
After Artoria closed her eyes and felt it for a while, she opened her eyes with joy on her face.
Ren nodded, activated the star field on his body, watered a jar of resurrection spring, and threw the World Tree seeds into the center of the spiral galaxy.
Buzz!
The seeds sprout, absorb countless sparks of light, and take root in the field. Countless real and illusory root systems extend in all directions, and even take root in the infinite armed space on the star sea vortex, establishing contact with the countless weapons inside!
Ren's eyes flashed, and the realm opened and closed, like a starry night-bloom that bloomed and then withered, and finally restrained itself perfectly.
Evaluation: In the fifth level, it corresponds to the Demon Prince of Darkness.
————
It may be that the level of the domain is low. After implanting the World Tree sapling, Renn's domain was upgraded by two levels, from level 23 to level 25.
Artoria's domain has been upgraded by one level, from level 26 to level 27.
But her progress is actually no less than that of Ren.
Because her domain is already at the fifth level, upgrading to one level is not as easy as raising two levels for Ren.
"That's great. At least it saves you a few months of hard work."
Ren exhaled a breath and grinned, very satisfied with the role of the World Tree seedlings.
Not to mention that the mature World Tree can assist in breaking through to the sixth level. Just because it can strengthen the stable field and speed up the evolution of the field, its value is immeasurable.
"Um."
Arturia was also very happy, hugging his neck and smiling brightly.
"I'll seal up the remaining seeds." Renn hesitated before saying.
In fact, he wanted to leave it to Kesha.
"Why are you meeting me outside?"
Artoria reached out and pinched his cheek, saying with some dissatisfaction.
Ren smiled, put the unsealed third World Tree seed into a crystal bottle, and sealed it.
As for the stone box, out of caution, he smashed it with a shock wave punch, completely shattering it.
He didn't even want to hold the "Staff of Nature", so he sealed it with a space scroll, covered it twice, and applied multiple seals.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "You are so careful, like a poisonous snake." Artoria laughed when she saw how cautious he was.
"No, I can't trust the guy who left the scepter." Renn shook his head.
If he hadn't thought that this [Stand of Nature] was still useful, he would have buried it in the ground long ago.
Caution is the boat.
It's always right to be cautious about things you don't understand.
…………
In the next few days, Renn accompanied Artoria to wander around various scenic spots in Merova City and took many photos.
They were busy practicing and studying before, and they never took a good tour of this city.
After playing for three days, a special visitor arrived.
"Hello, Viscountess Calrisson."
In the living room, Renn took out a bottle of expensive red wine, opened it and poured two glasses.
The visitor is a woman.
She has sassy blond hair tied into a ponytail with a gold ring, and is tall. The fiery red tight-fitting leather armor outlines her devilish figure, especially her plump and attractive breasts and her pair of snow-white legs with vivid muscle lines.
It's simply breathtaking.
"You're welcome, Viscount Ackermann, just call me Veronica."
Veronica sat down on the sofa opposite Ren and showed a polite smile.
"Okay, Ms. Veronica. Is this the Red Lotus fighting spirit? It is indeed sharp."
Ren sat on the sofa, shaking the red wine glass, staring at her with burning eyes.
Veronica frowned as he stared at her, feeling as if she had been stripped naked, and suddenly became a little annoyed.
"Are all young people today so rude?"
"Sorry, just out of curiosity." Renn looked away and apologized without sincerity.
Veronica is not a small person in Falorland. She is the famous "Knight of the Red Lotus". This nickname has been passed down from generation to generation. As of her, it is already the ninth generation.
He just observed her with the "Eye of Deception", and what he saw was a ball of fighting spirit flames as red as blood.
The blazing red lotus flame was like a torch, almost licking several meters away from her body. This was already the fourth level limit, the peak of level 20.
She comes from a famous knight family, which has made some improvements and optimizations to the [Knight] profession.
The knight profession can also be said to be the "element knight" profession.
The knight family that Veronica came from is good at it, focusing on fire-based abilities, and the red lotus fighting spirit it cultivated is quite famous in Falorland.
However, this kind of optimization and specialization has not reached the point where it can be regarded as a new profession.
For example, Renn's old rival, Earl Ange, is in a similar situation. Their family has the reputation of Faloran's "Thunder Spear" and is especially good at lightning-based skills.
If this kind of optimization and specialization reaches an extreme, new professions may be created.
At the beginning, the [Paladin] profession was actually separated from the [Knight] profession.
The [Knight] profession has developed so far and has spawned various branches such as Paladin, Punishment Knight, and Iron Wall Warrior.
Ren observed the mystery of Honglian's fighting spirit and smiled:
"Dear Red Lotus Knight, as a knight of the royal family, you are busy with official duties. Why do you have to come all the way this time?
This is asking knowingly.
Of course, it was impossible for him not to know who she was.
