Chapter 288: Seven Days Ago
Inside the tallest tower of the Narvit Bastion.
This was Xi Wei’s temporary living quarters. At this moment, he was with Ruo Yi and Loli, theoretically verifying humanity’s primitive behaviors through intellectual exchange.
This kind of verification was extremely draining.
At least the delicate and soft Loli had already collapsed to the side, exhausted.
Only Ruo Yi continued the experiment.
She opened the experiment bag with her hands, allowing Xi Wei to put the experimental materials inside.
The experimental process required repeating this action many times.
Only then could the experimental materials fully react within the experiment bag, ultimately releasing sufficient reaction products.
“I feel like it’s almost there.”
Xi Wei’s expression was solemn, indicating that this experiment was not easy and he was enduring it with great difficulty.
After all, it had been nearly six hours since the war ended. He had been rushing around during this time, and even with the Red Dragon Bloodline, he couldn’t help but feel a hint of fatigue.
Perhaps it was because he hadn’t conducted an experiment in a long time. This experiment bag felt unusually tight, making the use of the experimental materials a bit sluggish. However, this was more conducive to accelerating the generation of reaction products.
Ruo Yi closed her eyes, biting her lips, and remained silent.
She was carefully sensing the violent reactions of the experimental materials within the experiment bag. Perhaps due to excitement and nervousness, her body trembled involuntarily.
Finally, after repeating hundreds of experimental operations, the reaction finally reached its peak, and the reaction products were released. Seeing the experimental results, both Xi Wei and Ruo Yi relaxed completely.
“Why are you doing that?” Xi Wei glanced at Ruo Yi with some confusion. Ruo Yi was holding the experiment bag open as much as possible, looking a bit strained.
“That way, it won’t leak out~ Stupid Master~” Ruo Yi retorted, rolling her eyes at Xi Wei.
She didn’t understand what was happening either.
Even though they had conducted many experiments, and the experimental reaction products were plentiful, the final product had not yet appeared.
Could it be that humans and High Elves were impossible?
If it was impossible, then how did Demi come into existence?
Ruo Yi couldn’t figure it out. She could only attribute it to her and Loli’s poor luck. After all, such things were inherently based on probability. As long as it wasn’t 100%, even 99% could still lead to failure.
However, there was one thing she was very clear about.
That is, only by trying more could the chance of success be increased.
So, with a glint in her eyes, golden light appeared in her palm, forming the shape of a clock. With a gentle wave of her hand, this golden clock sneakily darted into Xi Wei’s experimental materials.
“Tick tock, tick tock…”
Accompanied by the sound of a clock’s movement.
The once listless experimental materials actually regained their vigor and returned to their original state.
“Master, we…”
Ruo Yi looked at Xi Wei, licking her lips. The meaning in her bright and lively eyes was self-evident.
Was time reversal meant to be used like this?
Xi Wei, holding the experimental materials, was stunned. With the power Ruo Yi possessed, this kind of small-scale time reversal could be used repeatedly. Setting aside the mental fatigue, he could completely be turned into a perpetual motion machine by Ruo Yi.
This maneuver was even more outrageous than that of a succubus!
“Uh, Ruo Yi…”
Xi Wei was about to try reason and emotion, using the tragic lives of the dairy cows on the ranch as a way to gain sympathy, when an anxious shout suddenly came from below the tower:
“Your Majesty! An Undead Calamity has broken out in Karari!”
…
Time moves forward, returning to a week ago.
After Angus rescued the traveling mage Shirina, he was led by Shirina to a nearby city.
This city was called Triumph City. Although it was near the coast, it was the largest city in Karari besides the Royal Capital and the center of entertainment and economy in southern Karari.
It had the largest casino, and it was said that the power behind the casino belonged to a member of the Karari royal family.
It also had the largest brothel, where a song and dance performance by foreign female slaves was held daily. They would wear revealing silk garments, igniting the most primal desires of passersby.
Angus liked it here very much.
Because there were enough people.
“Mr. Angus, this is the city I’ve stayed in the longest. Because it’s lively and prosperous, it’s a very good place for lonely people. I believe you’ll be very happy here.”
Shirina turned to look at the knight beside her. Although the knight’s hands were unusually cold, it couldn’t suppress her inner admiration and burning passion.
“Of course,” Angus nodded.
“I will enjoy my time here. I like lively places…”
Shirina was a regular visitor to Triumph City. As a traveling mage who frequently took on missions, she was quite well-known in Triumph City. Of course, part of the reason for this fame came from her beautiful appearance.
The city guard was supposed to thoroughly question Angus about his origins and test his race using a detection crystal. However, seeing the intimate demeanor between Shirina and Angus, they ultimately omitted this step.
This spared Angus a lot of trouble.
He wasn’t sure if there would be any hidden powerhouses in this city.
The explicit strength of many empires was not their true strength. These cunning humans were best at concealing their abilities and delivering a fatal blow to their enemies at critical moments, so he had to be careful.
Walking into Triumph City, the streets were indeed bustling with people, displaying a prosperous scene.
Professionals and Adventurers were in constant flow. They would greet Shirina amicably and cast curious or envious glances at the tall knight beside her.
Angus saw satisfaction in Shirina’s gaze. She thought Angus liked this city very much and was immediately filled with joy.
“Mr. Angus,” Shirina said, holding the knight’s hand.
“To survive in Triumph City, we first need to undergo a profession assessment at the Adventurer’s Guild. After that, we can accept Adventurer missions together. Depending on the mission’s difficulty, we can earn varying amounts of reward – this is the foundation of our survival as Adventurers.”
“Oh?” Angus showed a curious expression.
A long, long time ago, when he roamed the continent as a Gold Dragon, there was no such thing as an Adventurer’s Guild.
This must be a mysterious organization!
It was highly possible that powerhouses were hidden within it!
“Then, Miss Shirina, what Adventurer level are you?”
He probed.
“Me?” Shirina pointed to herself, her pretty face turning redder. Stuttering bashfully, she said,
“I, I’m just average… Adventurer teams are divided into six levels: Bronze Medal, Iron Medal, Silver Medal, Gold Medal, Diamond Medal, and Epic. My previous team and I were just an Iron Medal level Adventurer team.”
