Luo Ling stood there quietly at first, and then he began to pace back and forth, walking very slowly, with a dragging pace like an extremely tired traveler.
Bao Si also showed her quiet side, no longer talking or using body movements to highlight her charm. She even looked a bit cold now, especially her eyes. She understood that Luo Ling was thinking
, choice. And his decision had a profound impact on her.
Finally, Luo Ling stood still and took a deep breath. It seemed that the air in the bubbles was particularly sweet. Then, he raised his head. Outside the bubbles, the sunlight refracted into the clear lake water, and the rays of light rippled.
It's as beautiful as a dream.
"This underwater world is so beautiful and intoxicating." Luo Ling's voice was calm and slightly deep, and his eyes slowly moved to Bao Si. "You are also beautiful, enchanting and sexy, which is unforgettable at first sight.
"
Bao Si smiled charmingly, "You said that, are you willing to pay the price I mentioned and sign the contract?"
"Praise sometimes represents distance. So in fact, I am rejecting your proposal." Luo Ling's expression was serious and calm. At this moment, there was no hesitation in his heart.
Bao Si couldn't laugh anymore. She really didn't expect Luo Ling to refuse, and there was no room for turning around if he refused. "Ah... this is really unexpected!" Bao Si said almost sighing.
"In fact, I was surprised that I had the courage to say no."
Bao Si looked at Luo Ling, as if admiring a group of constantly changing light. Her eyes were bright, as if they were reflected by this group of light, but in fact, they were the result of curiosity, surprise and many other emotional factors in her heart.
A manifestation. "I remember that not long ago, you claimed to know yourself very well."
"Yes. I also remember saying that." Luo Ling's tone seemed to have fallen to Bao Si's position and was questioning himself. He said: "In order to survive and become strong, I am ruthless, ignoring life and reputation.
, I sneer at concepts such as sympathy and pity, and I will happily accept almost anything that can benefit myself. Why would such a person give up a huge benefit that is easily available? Especially, in the process of obtaining benefits, he can also
Enjoy unprecedented excitement and pleasure. The woman in front of you is not comparable to those 'vases'. She is smart, capable, has a profound background, and has extraordinary strength. She can make you **** at night and during the day.
Your right-hand man, my God! This is an almost perfect choice."
For the first time, Bao Si calmed down in front of Luo Ling and showed her cold side. Even her voice had the taste of ice chips: "But you still rejected me in the end. After thinking about it for less than five minutes,
.”
"Well, it seems a bit hasty."
"Are you teasing me?" With Bao Si's words, chills began to spread in the bubbles, and anyone could feel that an avalanche was brewing in Bao Si's heart. A strong person of her level,
He is not a servant who can be insulted and abused at will, especially when he is serious and sincere. Even if he is a lord, he must be treated with some kindness.
"Teasing?" Luo Ling's tone was still the same as before, seemingly unaware that the witch opposite was brewing anger. "Think about it, Miss Baosi, have you ever seen me joking during a transaction?"
"So, you are not stupid, not crazy, and you are not joking, and you agree with the value of this contract, why do you refuse? Give me a reason." Bao Si now looks like a female leopard that is ready to pounce on anyone at any time.
.
"In the past five minutes, I recalled my past." Luo Ling's expression showed a touch of nostalgia. The feeling of sedimentation was incompatible with his age. If there is another cigarette to match
If so, I believe he would look more like a middle-aged man writing a memoir at this moment.
"I have 22 years of ordinary experience, like most people of my age. I grew up in an era when everything was changing at a rapid pace. I had little faith and a lot of information was unknowingly stuffed into my mind. I was a bit rebellious and a bit precocious.
A bit decadent.”
"Then, from one day onwards, I began to grow rapidly as if I drank a magical potion. I turned into a warrior, a demon warrior." At this point, Luo Ling stopped talking.
"Then what?" Bao Si felt like she was about to get mad at this man. She wandered around for a long time. What was he talking about?
"You also feel that something is missing? I feel the same way. What is lacking is not only the answer to you, but also my life. You said that a child put on a military uniform and used a gun in his hand to kill several people.
If he is injured a few more times, will he become a complete soldier?" Luo Ling asked.
"What on earth do you want to say?" Anger was almost written on Bao Si's face.
"Miss Baosi, where are your calmness and wisdom? Have you listened carefully and thought seriously?"
"Can you give me a clear reason first, and then elaborate further?" Bao Si's patience was approaching its limit.
"In fact, I have already said the answer. Four years cannot completely turn a person into a devil, just like you as a witch cannot become a real human being in a short period of time. No matter how bad I am, I still have a human heart.
Soul, this state will accompany me for at least a hundred years. You can't expect a person to deal with problems with a completely demonic mentality. Of course, although some people wear human skin, their souls are already demons. I am not, at least
not completely."
Bao Si understood now, and the anger on her face suddenly melted away. The change was so fast that it made people feel that what she just did was just a performance. "Do you stick to your emotional and moral bottom lines?"
"No, I just firmly believe in a theory that how you treat others will be how others treat you. I will not confuse career and relationship, and my wife will not be the price of negotiation."
Bao Si stared at Luo Ling intently for a while, then said: "You are the most special devil I have ever seen."
"That's right, because my name is Luo Ling. I have many excellent qualities, such as confidence, tenacity, and honesty, which will make me successful. My future is limitless. If you are optimistic about this potential stock, you must hurry up.
Others have invested before, rather than short-sightedly cashing out.”
The smile returned to Baosi's face, and the pleasant atmosphere returned. "It's like an advertisement," she said.
"Yes, this is a science. Don't some successful lords and demon kings also know the straight way? The recruitment advertisements for bloody battles are very distinctive."
"Sir, you have confused some of the false knowledge that has been circulated with the display. As far as I know, there are only demons in this world, and there are no demons. Naturally, there will be no bloody battles."
"Really? I'm not particularly sure. I just vaguely remember someone telling me that many things in this world that are regarded as myths and legends or imaginary things actually exist. It turns out that the world of demons is still so simple.
There is no such thing as a chaotic camp and a lawful camp. But, who knows? Maybe in the past, or in the future, there were devils and devils."
What he said with some casualness may not be a prophecy. Perhaps, it just corresponds to one of the most essential truths of the crystal wall system. Or, it does not correspond to it, but triggers it.
…
After a very characteristic deepening of understanding, the conversation between Bao Si and Luo Ling finally returned to the topic of the current situation.
"I know you must have discovered some secrets about this illusion yesterday. I guess you found out that it is a sphere floating in the void, right?"
Luo Ling smiled lightly with a bit of self-deprecation: "I thought what I discovered was exclusive information..."
"Then, I guess, you plan to fly to the moon or chase the sun, is that right?"
When Bao Si said this, Luo Ling felt as if he had lost his voice. After confirming that this illusion was a floating sphere, he came to the hypothesis that the sun and moon here were the core of the illusion. Because it was the sun.
and the moon, which play a major role in affecting the changes in the illusion.
As soon as Bao Si saw Luo Ling's expression, she knew she had guessed correctly again. "If you have such a plan, please stop it. It has been detected by aircraft before. This illusion is like a miniature earth, but its outer membrane is smaller than
The earth's atmosphere is much tighter. It is an isolation shield made of planetary energy. If we want to destroy it, it is impossible to do it with our energy level."
Energy level is a brand-new concept that Luo Ling only learned about after acquiring knowledge from Qian Yunu for the second time. This level division is based on quality. For example, fire of the same nature, ordinary fire and
There is a qualitative difference between elemental fire, and elemental fire is qualitatively different from 'fire', which is a higher level of purity. It is not only an improvement in purity, but also implies some elements that cannot be understood by the current Luo Ling.
He simply understood this difference as the difference between ordinary spells and divine spells in DND novels.
"Refuse to cooperate, really made a lot of detours."
"In fact, your performance is already very shocking. We are able to master this information only because of the dedicated deep earth mages. This illusion, from the techniques to the use of energy, is almost completely unfamiliar to us. I cannot help but
Needless to say, there was once a group of extremely powerful beings that stayed in this land. I suspect that they were one of those ancient demon tribes that have died out."
Bao Si's words reminded Luo Ling of the Golden Flame clan. "Are there many demon clans that were once glorious and possessed great power and knowledge, but eventually perished?"
"It's hard to count. As far as I know, there are at least 1,700 such extinct ethnic groups recorded in the Enriyes Clan Codex. You are very interested in this."
"Yes, history, stories, it is through these that human beings find some important laws."
"Human beings believe that knowledge is power. After seeing the power of technology, I am deeply touched by this."
"As long as humans are given another two hundred years, the war in hell will not be lost so hastily."
"I can understand your unwillingness as a member of the human race." Bao Si said: "But in fact, failure is already doomed. Because although the speed of technological development is fast, it cannot be faster than the speed of the soul's degradation."
"..."
"Do you think the demon kings and lords launched this war against the main plane of the earth just because they have been coveting this piece of fat for a long time? This field of the earth can no longer produce more excellent souls. Fruit trees need pollination to bear fruit.
The same goes for cutting branches and producing souls. This is not the first time such a thing has been done.”
Luo Ling nodded, "This is the reason why those once glorious civilizations suddenly disappeared."
"Yes. Try different planting methods to get the best returns. Facts have proved that although scientific and technological civilization produces quickly, its durability is too poor, and the quality of the souls it produces declines too quickly."
"So, maybe hundreds or thousands of years later, this place will become a brand new magical world. Just like in the novel, the period of monarchy and feudalism will be longer, and the indirect intervention of gods and demons will be more effective control
In this way, the high quality, high productivity and sustainability of the soul can be ensured.”
"God said that humans are lambs." Bao Si smiled and said: "How do humans treat sheep? From this perspective, demons seem to be more benevolent. At least, they allow some 'food' to be earned through their own efforts or other
For some reasons, it becomes an existence with the same status as itself. Will humans give citizenship to a sheep?"
Luo Ling curled his lips and avoided the topic: "Unknowingly, I deviated from the topic again. Let us continue to discuss practical issues. What is your plan? To stop those stars, you have not noticed that the magic energy lost in this space is being used
Do you absorb the illusion and become increasingly powerful? Moreover, you cannot really destroy those stars."
"Star people? Your name for the soul spawn is so poetic. Thinking about their arrival, it is indeed a bit like the stars falling."
"Soul spawn?"
"Yes, it's called Soul Evolution for short. Its counterpart is Corpse Evolution, which is also commonly known as zombie in this world."
"From what you're saying, it seems you know the problem I'm talking about."
"Of course. But we have lost the Deep Earth Mage and the Rock Curse Demon, so we can only use this stupid method to solve the problem."
"I heard you mention the Deep Earth Mage last time when you were at the Guomao Building. What about the Rock Curse Demon?"
"Lei Dianfang's treasure hunting expert."
"How did they lose it?"
"The First Night Battle of Miyagi."
"at the same time?"
"Yes, we underestimated the danger here. While fighting the souls in the palace city, we also fought against the forces of the Thunder Palace. As a result, we missed the best opportunity to break the illusion."
Luo Ling nodded. "Through the blocking, the number of stars entering the palace every day has indeed decreased. I think this should be the result of a program running in the illusion, in order to give the people who are trapped in the illusion a little illusion of hope, so as to maximize their chances of success."
Extract more magic energy. What you are doing is to try to break into the palace city again when the number of stars is close to the rebound line?"
"Yes."
"But Illusion has made up for the lack of quantity with improved quality. In fact, Miyagi's combat strength should not have weakened much."
"The masters are not scary. Although their martial arts skills are strong, they can still fight. But the battle formation composed of a large number of stars is very difficult to deal with."
"I understand, use clumsiness to counter skill, and defeat ten groups with one force. After all, the demons invading now still belong to the Western school."
"I don't understand a little bit."
"Let's put it this way, for example, in ancient times, there were two different groups of people in this land and in the western land. They each had two different masters who taught combat skills. Those who taught the westerners were the current mainstream demons.
What belongs to the people on this land is the extinct demon species. The difference between the strength type and the skill type."
Bao Si understood now. She said: "There is a big difference. Just like the five elements you talked about the night before yesterday, I almost don't understand them at all."
"What I know is only superficial, and it doesn't mean anything. By the way, what exactly is in the palace?"
"Axis, core. That's what the Deep Earth Mage told me."
"Axis? Earth's axis? Magnetic pole pillars like the north and south poles? So what is rotating is the illusion of this sphere, not the fake sun and moon running in orbit?"
"That's what we also speculated."
"Then do you know how to obtain this core?"
"Master Shentu said the key is the four palaces in the inner city, as well as the main palace. We don't know the solution, so we can only destroy it."
"Four, five, two, one," Luo Ling muttered.
"What did you say?"
"Among the keys you mentioned, these numbers coincide. In the ancient metaphysical culture of China, there are five elements, four images, three talents, two rituals, and one yuan. The one yuan hypothesis is the key core. I think it should be some kind of method.
Vessel. One Yuan generates two rituals. The two rituals divide yin and yang, that is, the sun and the moon. The two rituals generate four elephants. The four elephants are east, west, south, and north. The east palace is the green dragon, the horn, the kang, the di, the room, the heart, the tail, and the ji. The west palace is the white tiger.
The stars coincide with the four attributes of wood, metal, fire, and water. The central hall is probably of the earth attribute, and together they are
