Hidden Corner: Chapter 606 606 Plunder 2
Chapter 606 606 Plunder 2
Half an hour later.
Stone house at the test site.
The four of them were tied together two by two, with rags stuffed in their mouths. Pariya slowly woke up from her coma.
In the dark room, the lights flickered, and tables filled with various experimental tools were in front of them, stained with a lot of dark red blood.
Palia heard a voice asking another voice.
That was a young male voice.
“Why are there only three laws of meditation?”
“I don’t know either, I only know that the instructor said this, and you can feel the fluctuations if you do this.”
“What is the fluctuation? Is it some kind of vibration?”
The kind of dragon that talks a lot, also pursues knowledge, and is extremely powerful seems to be very similar to the person in front of him.
“You just said you like music?”
"I don't know, I really don't know, let me go! I've told you everything I can tell you! I've said everything!" The male mage who was questioned burst into tears and let out a desperate cry in the room. Wail.
After thinking for a moment, he suddenly showed a sincere smile.
Li Chengyi continued to ask with a gentle smile.
Palia stayed safely in the stone house in the experimental area and became an assistant and part-time consultant to Li Chengyi.
Palia instantly identified the other party's needs and thought of an excellent way to escape.
And it is still nine-tenths away from filling the entire Yuanshen Sword Palace.
Her mind was changing rapidly, thinking about the other party's true purpose.
So, he agreed.
How they live, how they live in harmony with nature, how they face other races, how they live, grow old, sick and die.
The brass dragon!
“Do you know how the harp first appeared?” Li Chengyi changed the topic and started asking seemingly irrelevant questions.
“It is said to be a section cut off from the branch of the World Tree.” The male mage explained intermittently.
"sure."
"Yes! I like damn, I like music, I like the harp! No, please don't do that!" the male mage cried with snot and tears.
Li Chengyi seems to be interested in everything, as long as it is knowledge.
Soon, the third mage also finished asking.
Many years ago, she had seen a brass dragon that lived in seclusion in a distant valley. His Highness had a very gentle temper, but he was also very interested in any knowledge and was not stingy about spending time chatting with all creatures.
A strange, mysterious and powerful creature could not help but appear in her mind.
Then, the two of them talked about spellcasting, the mage’s interest in carving, the details of carving, the feeling of carving a good work, etc.
The two then discussed everything from the well-known harp repertoire, the development history of Taoism, to major famous figures, and so on.
They have no faults except that they talk too much. The strength is also the strongest among dragons.
Soon, the second mage was also hacked to death.
“No, I am more interested in you.” Li Chengyi was still smiling.
Then comes the third one.
Suddenly.
The mage who was questioned was cold all over, and he was tremblingly talking about his past history.
The world and nature he observed from a new perspective, as well as the large amount of information accumulated by Changsheng species, were enough to make him excited.
And the team of mages sent by the White Tower to investigate the Teague case also mysteriously disappeared in the dense sea of snow-white trees.
This is not an exchange meeting at all, but a devil’s torture purgatory!
“Next, it’s Master Weng’an. Please tell me the story of how you once studied as a Master. I’m very interested.”
As Pariya explained, the flames of the sword furnace in Li Chengyi's mind began to slowly spread outward, and began to escape like running water, flowing out of the platform where the sword furnace was located.
Seeing this, Pariya was so nervous and frightened that she could hardly breathe.
‘If this person has the same personality as the Brass Dragon, then as long as he is given enough and diverse knowledge that he is interested in, he will be able to attract his interest! ’
If it were in another place, Pariya might have thought this was a serious music exchange meeting.
Li Chengyi felt the fire in the sword furnace rising by another section, and looked at the elf in front of him with fear in his eyes.
"I can trade you a lot of knowledge! I just ask you to let me go. We elves have a long lifespan and have enough knowledge, so we can definitely meet your needs!" Pariya said in the fastest and clearest tone of her life , and said something that touched the other person.
“Next, me”
From this day on, every day, Pariya would tell Li Chengyi a lot about the history of elves.
Li Chengyi killed him with one blow. Finally, he looked at the accidentally caught elf.
But after the mysterious strong man asked for the final answer and cut the male mage's throat with a knife, she trembled and woke up.
But even like this, Li Chengyi felt that his flesh and blood became stronger under the expansion of the flames of the sword furnace.
Driven by this, his physical fitness further began to undergo new changes and improvements, reaching eight times the strength of Milton.
But at this moment, the missing three new mages once again caused shock to the entire eastern territory and the White Tower mages.
The White Tower was furious.
If the two mages before may have had an accident, then the three mages this time were attacked again under the premise of clearly releasing the news of the investigation.
This proves that the murderer doesn't care about the deterrence of the White Tower at all. Under such circumstances, the White Tower finally sent a White Tower mage to lead a powerful investigation team composed of thirteen high-ranking mages.

Black Castle.
“Is Carlos still doing his research?” Melissa sighed slightly after finishing lunch and found that her son still hadn’t come to eat.
“Yes.” Old Buck nodded slightly.
"I heard that he also embezzled military funds for his latest experiment?" Melissa continued to ask.
“Yes.” Old Buck responded helplessly again.
"The White Tower is still investigating. The barbarians are watching eagerly. Milton Knight and his men have repelled two groups of their plundering attacks. He actually still has the leisure to embezzle military funds for his experiments?? He also said before that he would go to the front line. ?how"
Melissa wanted to be angry, but when she thought of her son doing experiments near the Black Castle, it was safer than going to the battlefield and fighting with the barbarians.
He suppressed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
"He is already sixteen years old. Miss Mina from Pars came to see him again on behalf of the Youth Association. Is he still missing this time?" Melissa was a little tired.
"No, the Baron has met this time. They may be discussing in detail now. The United Youth Association can actually be considered a considerable force. The adults of each family are also happy to see the younger generations being able to connect with each other. OK." Old Buck nodded.
“Do you think it’s possible for Mina and him this time?” Meris suddenly felt a glimmer of hope.
She has met Mina Pars, the second daughter of the Baron Pars family, who is a perfect match for Carlos.
The person is beautiful, has a good figure, and is suitable for childbirth.
"This may not work this time. Miss Mina did not come alone. She also brought her friends." Old Buck coughed and understood the meaning.
The old lady wanted to give medicine to help the two of them cook a meal in advance.
Anyway, it seems that Mina is quite fond of adults.
It’s just that this kind of thing cannot be rushed.
"But I think the reason why the boy came to look for the adults is because of the recent rumors about the Cedar Forest Abyss in the Pars Territory." Old Buck reminded, "It is rumored that a mysterious and terrifying person appeared in the Cedar Forest. A powerful creature, he easily killed the gryphons that appeared there, and also killed the two groups of mages and their followers sent by the White Tower. "
“Cedar Grove Deep?”
Inside the experimental stone house.
Li Chengyi washed his hands and received Mina and another girl named Havina who came to visit.
Both of them were from extraordinary backgrounds and had received training as knights. Mina had a better figure, with a curvy front and back. And Havina's appearance is even better, and her temperament is faintly more noble.
"Yes, our Youth Association has established a line with Dilla, the genius mage of the White Tower." Mina smiled, "Let's work together to collect all the intelligence information about the Cedar Forest Abyss. There are also rumors, so send it like this It’s a favor to Dilla.”
"Not interested. I'm very busy." Li Chengyi said casually.
“Okay, I know you’re not interested, now it’s your turn, Havina.” Mina smiled and made way for the girl with short platinum hair on the other side to take the main seat.
"Hello, Baron Carlos, my name is Havina Elstone. I heard that you want to collect a lot of books, and you have a lot of books in your hands. I wonder if you are willing to join our Knowledge Tower to conduct knowledge research. Exchange and sharing of books?”
“Tower of Knowledge?” Li Chengyi raised his eyebrows. After reading a lot of books, he is no longer unclear about many things as before.
"Yes. We are a large-scale exchange organization that is different from the White Tower and is formed by three peak mages. The purpose is to share knowledge, not to monopolize it. After hearing Mina talk about your situation, we all agreed , you are very suitable to be a member of our Knowledge Tower," Havina smiled.
“Are there any restrictions on joining? What are the obligations and what are the rights?” Li Chengyi asked. He was very interested in this.
"The authority has just said that the obligation is to pay a total of one thousand gold coins in membership fees to the Knowledge Tower every year. After all, many liaison agencies within our organization, institutions that exchange and preserve books, all require maintenance fees." Havina smiled. .
“Yes. It’s a very reasonable request.” Li Chengyi nodded.
"That's good. Next, as long as you attend an exchange meeting within our organization, once a year and at a nearby location, you will be considered qualified." Havina continued to add.
"no problem."
"Then it's settled." Havina took out a strange book with a black cover and handed it to Li Chengyi.
“This is our meeting gift at the Knowledge Tower, and it is also a special mage book to test whether you have any bad traces.”
She took the book, stood up, and approached Li Chengyi.
“It tests you to see if there are any violations of the mage convention”
Before Havina finished speaking, she saw traces of dark red light begin to emit from the surface of the black book.
The smile on her face stopped abruptly.
The Mage's Book of the test will appear red, and there is generally only one explanation.
That is, the person in front of me has recently committed a particularly bad act of killing an imperial mage.
“Excuse me, what is going on? Why does it glow red?” Li Chengyi looked at the book and asked curiously.
Havina watched as the red light on the black book gradually became brighter and even began to turn a little darker.
My heart sank rapidly.
Because red turns black, it means that the person in front of you is not only guilty of killing the mage, but may also be guilty of other more troublesome evil deeds, such as colluding with evil races, committing crimes against humanity, etc.
Combined with the various rumors circulating around here, the biggest possibility suddenly emerged in her mind - colluding with the elves!
Cold sweat slowly seeped out from her back.
"This. This is because this phenomenon will occur when the certification starts." Havina still maintained a smile on her face, but her heart began to become more and more tense.
"But why are you afraid?" Li Chengyi raised his head and looked at Havina's pretty face.
"I"
唰!
In an instant, a heavy blow hit Havina on the back of the neck, knocking her unconscious.
Mina stood up suddenly, but Li Chengyi appeared beside her and covered her mouth and nose.
“Don’t worry, I just want to protect you.”
“Protect me?” Mina struggled and made an indistinct voice.
"Yes. Because if you call me out and attract other people, I will have to deal with one more person."
Li Chengyi said softly.
Mina’s whole body tensed up, and an uncontrollable fear quickly climbed up her back.
