LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 804: Lanqi's Red Legend
Chapter 804: Lanqi's Red Legend
The light that was dissipating in the shadow world was suddenly replaced by deep darkness at the moment it reached its strongest point.
In just a blink of an eye, Lanqi found himself in a transparent hut surrounded by the eternal starry sky.
Only a few stars are twinkling sparsely, telling stories of tens of millions of years, shining brightly.
Talia also stood here holding the cat, and the stars brought enough light for them to see the scene clearly.
"Lanqi, you are here."
Talia has changed back into her normal clothes, and now that she has shed the veil of the Fallen Heaven, she is no longer the pure white appearance of Kaliela.
"Well, we're back."
Lanqi responded to her with a smile.
At the end of each journey, he was grateful to see people welcoming him home.
After experiencing this shadow world, he inexplicably felt the goodness of Talia.
Without her, just being in the Mirror of Tiberius would be extremely difficult.
"Don't think about this kind of thing in your mind."
Talia was a little overwhelmed when she heard Lanqi thinking about her too directly. She could only hold the cat half tightly and turn her body slightly to prevent Lanqi from looking at her.
She said in a weak voice.
Boss Cat looked back and forth at the two of them.
The wind began to swirl in the square of the critical space, sweeping across every inch of the ground. In the night sky, the stars began to move slowly, rearranging themselves into a completely new pattern.
Music started from nowhere.
The sound was melodious and majestic, as if composing a magnificent piece of music for the end of this blood moon era.
The long and melancholy sound of the wind turned into a sigh, echoing in the silent air.
This is a wonderful space where the real world and the shadow world are intertwined, forming a critical edge.
On the transparent barrier not far away, spreading cracks quietly appeared, and a few strands of peaceful purple light overflowed from the gaps.
Later, by passing through this small void gate, the two can return to the capital of the present Krelian Empire and return to the familiar city life of Blildah.
"Based on the time we entered the Shadow World, it should be morning when we return to Brillda after a full twenty-one days."
Lanqi recalled and said to Talia.
The settlement of Shadow World has not appeared for a while.
Each shadow world takes a long time, and this time the eighth-level shadow world should take even longer than before.
"Thank you for your hard work. Go home and order some more ingredients. I'll make you some more delicious food. It's almost lunch time."
Talia replied expressionlessly and exceptionally virtuously.
"Thank you, Tata."
Lanqi replied with a smile.
Although he didn't expect that Talia's first thought after hearing the time was that lunch time was almost here.
But Talia was thinking about cooking for him, after all, there was something to be happy about.
Now, their superior and good friend in the Person Kingdom, Lieutenant General Nigel, has helped Tata arrange the fiancée status of Professor Lanqi's fake identity.
Talia's occasional appearances in the capital city of Blildar wouldn't be a big problem.
He could even cook with peace of mind at his home at St. Clement's Abbey.
The two chatted in the critical space.
"Meow, is this the settlement space that will be available only when the blood moon ends?"
The cat boss' ears moved occasionally and asked the two people.
It had the impression that this critical space was more magnificent than the last time it came here, and there were often sights of meteors streaking across it.
Gradually, the rhythm of loneliness joins in, the melody sometimes trembles, sometimes stretches, as if trying hard to suppress the inner pain, deep and lasting, laying out an inescapable melancholy tone.
Occasionally a few short notes are inserted, like the flickering moonlight in the night, bright and cold.
The whole melody moves forward slowly and heavily, as if someone is forcing a smile and staggering on a cold cliff.
There is a deep loneliness and a hint of madness in the music.
"I think so. The series of blood moons ruining the world has finally come to an end, representing the end of a period of history and an era."
Lanqi listened to the music of the critical space and answered the little black cat in Talia's arms.
"It's a nice-sounding meow."
Boss Cat shook his head flexibly.
The music speeds up slightly, the piano chords become less harmonious, and cracks begin to appear on the surface of inner peace.
The sound became sharp, almost a silent scream, which startled the cat owner and made it jump to the ground.
All the notes come together, the music reaches its climax, the vortex of emotions is both sad and fanatical, and the long-suppressed emotions finally burst out.
Then, everything slowly calmed down and returned to the lonely piano sound at the beginning, but this time, there seemed to be a hint of relief in the piano sound.
The music gradually comes to an end, leaving behind an aftertaste that makes people feel uneasy, like an unsolvable puzzle, or a wound that can never be healed.
The final change of tune echoed and lingered in the air for a long time.
"Boss Cat, you may soon become a divine beast, why are you still so timid?"
Lanqi remembered that when the cat boss was at level seven, he would be scared by mice.
Of course, it was actually the poet of great love who was yelling, mistaking the Moon Shadow Fox for a big black rat.
"How can a cat not be afraid of mice! Those things are too scary, okay?!"
Boss Cat and Lanqi argued.
"this."
Lan Qi choked.
He couldn't tell whether there was something wrong with his common sense or whether the cat owner was different from other cats.
But he is not a cat and has no right to argue about this issue with his cat owner who is a cat.
Talia, who had been silent for a while, cleared her throat.
She had something to say since just now.
The settlement time in the Shadow World would take longer than she had imagined, so she might as well just settle it here.
Now the language is finally organized.
"When we return to the human world, you can simply send back the Allied spies and the two fake fiancées from the Resurrection Church. As long as you reach the seventh level, I should be able to be your fiancée. No one is more suitable to be your wife than me."
Talia kicked Lanci's heel with a little assurance and said to him.
Her current identity is a talented magic engineering teacher in Nicksassend in the northwest border. She has quit her job and is preparing to come to Brillda to fulfill her engagement and become a full-time housewife.
"The problem is, they may have almost arranged it. After all, we have been in the Shadow World for twenty-one days."
Upon hearing this, Lan Qi counted the time on his fingers.
He cannot reach the seventh level for the time being. The shadow world will only allow him to reach the quasi-seventh level. He has to return to the real world and complete the engraving step before he can truly be promoted to the seventh level.
During this process, it was still difficult for him to bear Talia's continuous mana consumption.
"First of all, I must remind you that Yabo is very reliable in big matters, but very unreliable in small matters. You should be able to tell from the drama performance that day. The drama performance is over, and the extras that Yabo found for Abigail haven't arrived yet. As for your fiancée, he might find you a very strange girl from the Resurrection Church. You will live together at home and suffer a lot."
Talia frowned and carefully told him the worst-case scenario.
"really."
Lanqi thought deeply and nodded.
"But if they come, Tata, don't bully them. After all, they are all our own people in the dimensional branch."
He looked at Talia and preached.
Toliado once said that he would find a woman worthy of him, McCarthy, and Talia may still be bothered by this statement.
"I'm not that petty. I really don't care what he said at all."
Talia spoke in a matter-of-fact tone.
"Haha, I'm really curious about the outstanding woman sent by the Resurrection Church, but I have to make it clear to you in advance, don't have too high expectations on the woman that Yabo found."
Not to mention living under the same roof, Talia would probably be disgusted by the Resurrectionist girl at first sight.
No matter what type of girl it is, she will never approve of her.
"You really do care, don't you?"
Lanqi asked her, observing her expression.
"No."
Talia answered firmly.
"Well, I'll go back and rest for a while and then contact Unity and Toliado. If they can't arrange a fake fiancée, I'll definitely have to rely on you, the most reliable master."
After careful consideration, Lanqi came up with a plan.
"no problem."
Talia hesitated slightly before nodding in agreement.
Although she expected Lanqi to agree to her directly, she felt relieved when she heard Lanqi say that she was the most reliable.
Anyway, even if a fake fiancée could be sent to her, she could not compare with Talia. It was rare for an eighth-level princess to play the role of a fiancée. Lanqi would soon find that Talia was the only optimal solution. No other woman could replace her good qualities.
"It's not that I want to pretend to be your fiancée, but if someone accidentally spreads the news of my fake marriage to you in Brillda to Hyperion, she will be very sad, so it's better for me to do this."
Talia added.
"Indeed... In spy warfare, such misunderstandings are prone to occur. Before the mission is completed, it is difficult to explain whether it is a real marriage or a fake one."
Lanqi understood this very well.
National hatred, family feuds, and spy missions often lead to situations that are difficult to express.
"You know, I've always kept my mouth shut, so even if we pretended to be a couple in Brillda, I would pretend nothing happened when we return to Ikerit, and I wouldn't let Hugh Bao have any misunderstandings."
Talia spoke nonchalantly.
"Meow meow."
The cat boss's mouth turned into a fork, he didn't dare to speak, and looked at the two people.
It still remembered the Valentine's Day in the Flower City of Parière, when Tata in the restaurant of the Colon Zhiri Bridge Inn held Lanqi's hand and communicated with Hyperion. It, Etienne and Countess Rosalinda were rowing on the river outside the restaurant and watching, and they were very scared.
Now Tata seems to be going bigger and bigger.
In Tata's view, as long as it is not discovered by Hyperion, it is equivalent to not happening. All her experiences with Lanqi are actually to help Hyperion arrange the thunder, which is essentially to protect Hyperion.
In this regard, Talia seems to have inherited Kaliera's gentleness. Compared with authenticity, most of the time she values protection more, so sometimes she can feel at ease using her demon logic to make judgments that are not in line with human morality.
Of course, the premise is that she is not discovered, otherwise she will not be able to deceive herself.
"Hey, Mr. Cat, are you scared?"
Lanqi looked down at the cat boss.
Boss Cat looked at this place nervously and curiously.
Everything seems new to it.
This is the second time it has seen the critical space after clearing the shadow world.
"You participated in both key battles in the Shadow World this time. There will definitely be rewards. Don't worry."
Lan Qi picked up the restless little black cat, held it up and said to it.
He knew what Boss Cat was worried about.
After previous experiences, Lanqi had long understood that the greater the deviation from the real historical trend during the challenge in the shadow world, the longer the settlement process in the shadow world would be.
The way he completed the final node of the Blood Moon Destruction was certainly different from the real historical Lanclos.
Although both ended in a similar era, his journey in the film world is ultimately more of a comedy than Lancroix's, and does not have the outright tragic ending of Lancroix.
"..."
Talia glanced at Lanqi.
"You have completed the four shadow worlds in the Blood Moon Destruction series. Will the rewards be even higher at the final settlement?"
She heard from Lanqi and Hyperion that after Lanqi and Hyperion completed the Shadow World for the first time, they saw the information about the four nodes of the Shadow World in the Blood Moon Bad World series. After that, each time they completed a Shadow World, they would get one step closer to the final node, and now they have reached the ending.
Based on the current progress of the shadow world, Talia guessed that if they only completed the mission objectives in this shadow world [Eternal Punishment Ending] but did nothing else, what they would get should be a guaranteed reward.
If they use the Mirror of Tiberius and complete the 'extra questions' of this shadow world after learning the truth, they may get a higher reward.
"I don't know, but it should."
Lanqi happily raised his hand, clenched his fist, and looked at his palm.
"But that's not the point. The inner journey is far more powerful and precious than the power brought by magic cards."
He actually enjoyed these long journeys into the film world.
Lessons without pain are meaningless.
But when one goes through painful trials, overcomes them and transcends them, one can gain a strong heart that will not succumb to anything.
A heart of steel like Lancroix's.
Peel off the old scab and start a new life.
"Your mentality remains the same as always. If it were me, I would definitely not want to recall those three experiences with the Mirror of Tiberius."
Talia smiled and shook her head and sighed.
"Meow, what did you experience? And what is the Mirror of Tiberius?"
Boss Cat remembered that Lanqi and Tata had disappeared for a whole day at Purgatory Corridor Academy.
From then on, in its perspective, Lanqi suddenly made a crazy decision to go to the Demon King's City and then head south.
Moreover, the relationship between Ranchi and Tata seems to have become much closer, not in terms of the way they get along, but in that they understand each other's hearts better, and have truly become soul mates from friends.
Boss Cat suspected that disappearance was the turning point in the progress of the Shadow World.
"Boss Cat, if you see a six-sided cubic mirror in the future, don't touch it easily."
Lanqi poked the cat boss's head and gave instructions.
The ominous legendary magical device, the Mirror of Tiberius, must have completely disappeared into history.
As the three of them were chatting in their home at St. Clement's Abbey as usual, a message suddenly appeared in the strange space filled with starlight and began to flicker. A pure white halo rolled in lines in the dark space.
[The Shadow World Eternal Punishment Finale has been completed. 】
[Calculation completed, evaluation being generated.]
[Since the challengers Ranchi, Talia, and Yami entered as a team, the team settlement method is adopted. 】
[During this exploration of the Shadow World, which lasted a total of 21 days, I successfully explored the Blood Moon City and defeated the ninth ancestor of the Blood Moon Era, Marquis Bernhard, the eighth ancestor, Marquis Somersette, the seventh ancestor, Marquis Helitier, and the third ancestor, Duke Lachar.]
[The team achieved the following achievements. 】
[Saint Polante Church S——Under your influence, the seeds of drastic changes that were buried in the Polante Empire finally sprouted, giving birth to the Saint Polante Church and an unprecedented second-generation pope. She may be more radical than the first pope and complete the feat of conquering the entire southern continent. ]
[Journey D—You have retraced your previous journey.]
[Peaceful Era A——You did not lose yourself in hatred and spiritual trauma, and always wanted to pursue peace. 】
[Profane Love SS - You understood the love of Lord Merogas, the Profane Lord, and after defeating her, you let her live and made her your friend.]
[Liyue Dacheng C——Thanks to your efforts, the Great Love Poet has become a legendary beauty. Not only does she no longer focus on musical instruments, she is no longer a Great Love Poet.]
"Wait, what is this!"
Talia asked in surprise.
"It's already very euphemistic that Shadow World didn't write [Legendary Voice Actor C]."
Lanqi raised his hand and took a half step back, covering his mouth to hold back his laughter.
Recalling Talia's choked voice at the end of the shadow world, "The legendary beauty Lanfu appears," Lanqi felt that he could be happy every day from now on.
"Lanqi, I'll kill you, forget it!"
Talia grabbed Lanci's neck, shook him and shouted, but Lanci burst out laughing.
[Kaliera's Phantom S——As the former regent of the demon world, you still transformed into a guardian spirit to accompany your best friend after losing your power, helping your best friend to achieve his goal, and perfectly dealing with a series of conspiracies of the vampires.]
[Black Sun's Tyrant SSSS——You stand on top of hundreds of millions of lives. 】
"Meow, you two should pay attention to the ending."
Boss Cat shook his head and sighed.
It had heard that at the Villains Dinner in the Temple, the Great Love Poet had been thinking about the organ, and last time in the Darkest Eclipse, the piano in McCarthy's Restaurant seemed to have almost fallen into the hands of the Great Love Poet.
In this regard, Tata can be said to be much more dignified than the great poet.
It is clear that the poet Da Ai has a talent for music, but she simply looks down on musical instruments.
Ever since the Great Love Poet was melted by Tata, Lanqi no longer worried about the Great Love Poet getting into trouble, because if the Great Love Poet accidentally damaged some expensive musical instrument, the loss caused by the summoned creature would be counted as the summoner, and Lanqi would be fully responsible.
Boss Cat still remembers it clearly. The most fatal thing is undoubtedly the piano in the Duke's house, which is known as a priceless treasure. A foreign tycoon had offered 180,000 pounds for it before, but Duke Migaiya refused to sell it.
After the Duke disappeared, if the piano had not been so heavy and had not been surrounded by several layers of barriers in the Duke's Mansion, it would have been stolen long ago.
The piano is also Lanfu's most likely target.
But Lanqi has been using Talia for a long time now, and probably doesn't want Lanfu to come back.
While they were playing around, the evaluation of the movie world continued to be refreshed.
[First exploration of the Blood Moon City siege S——With the cooperation of a powerful demon companion, you passed the Blood Moon City at the end of the Blood Moon Apocalypse, where the defense force was insufficient. ]
[Recognition of the Great Demons A——You have gained the recognition of the four ancient great demons, Lord Blasphemy, Lord Skeleton, Lord Mercury, and Lord Wanwei.]
[Return to Purgatory City C——You are back to the place where lightning is controlled. ]
[Nuclear Fusion Master E——You don’t know how big your game is yet.]
[Mirror of Tiberius S——Tried three times the dangerous magic device left by the ancient great demon Daoxuanqing. ]
[Endless Time and Space E——You experienced too long a punishment. 】
[Little Spark C——You protected the little spark left by Kaliela, which will continue new stories and hopes.]
【…】
【Go Back with the Wind E——Go back with the gentle wind, go back with the drizzling rain, forget everything, put down all the old dreams, until the sea of heart gradually overflows. 】
"..."
Talia slowly let go of Lanqi and watched the combing of the content gradually stop.
"Some of the achievements seem to be from Hyperion and the others, and we can also see the achievements shared by both sides."
Lanqi also looked at the text they could understand and talked to Talia.
[Achievements sorting is completed and evaluation generation is completed. 】
[You have walked a long way, it was dark and out of reach, you heard their voices, weighed your every choice, fell deeper and deeper in the embrace of tranquility, love swept in like a tide and knocked you down, encountered a soul that surfaced and soared, and even if your heart no longer beats, you sincerely cannot rest in peace. ]
[A lifetime, a road, a heavy burden, no one remembers, the suffering soul always yearns for heaven. ]
[The fate song played at that time was a new starting point for the development of the past destiny. 】
[The waning moon will be full again, repeating the reunion and separation. ]
【Overall evaluation: SSS】
[Rank increase: Ranchi 6th rank → 6th rank (limit), Talia 8th rank → 8th rank, Yami 8th rank → 9th rank. ]
At the moment when the rewards were settled, Boss Cat achieved a breakthrough in rank.
Lanqi, who was already at the sixth level, reached the limit of the sixth level, but was temporarily blocked at the seventh level due to the promotion conditions.
Talia looked at her own palms with a hint of surprise, then clenched them, feeling the increase in strength and magic.
"Master, how is it?"
Lanci asked Thalia.
"According to your scale, I'm probably at 83 or 84 now?"
Talia guessed uncertainly.
Even without the blessing of Lanqi's mark, she believed that she could still compete with Perlman, the last powerful enemy Huadu faced.
If she adds the blessing that Lanqi brings her, she will probably not be afraid to fight even if she meets the last military god!
After confirming her own strength, Talia couldn't help but feel excited. She was finally not a demon at the bottom of the group anymore.
"You are such a good disciple to the master!"
Talia hugged Ranch tightly, then let him go, grabbed his shoulders and praised him.
After wandering for a hundred years, it’s better to go into the film world with Lanqi.
If I had met him earlier, I would have been able to restore the country.
"..."
Lanqi looked stunned.
He never thought Talia would hug him.
"Celebrate, celebrate, don't misunderstand, I don't mean anything else."
When Talia saw Lanqi's expression, she immediately realized that something was wrong. She was too excited. She quickly withdrew her hand and spoke to him with a slight stutter.
The cat boss, who was feeling the enlightenment of his rank breakthrough, was still in a frozen state.
"Boss Cat, how do you feel?"
Lanqi asked the motionless little black cat.
It seems to be caught in a cosmic storm of thought.
Even though Boss Cat is a paramecium and does not have the fighting power of a normal creature, he is still a miraculous ninth-level being and may be the only ninth-level mascot in history.
First of all, its rank must be high enough to enter the high-level shadow world. Secondly, not only must it be dragged through the high-level shadow world, but it must also collect the power of faith that it itself cannot collect since it has no dignity. According to common sense, this race cannot be cultivated to the ninth level at all.
"...Lanqi, I really have reached the ninth level, meow, look, look!"
The cat boss felt that his life was complete. He hovered beside Lanqi and shouted excitedly.
Its telekinesis made Lanci and Tata float up as well. They seemed to have lost gravity in this critical space like the starry universe and were wandering freely.
If you intend to engrave it again, you will be temporarily in an extreme state. If you have no intention of engraving at all, you will break through directly.
Boss Cat probably felt that it was not only difficult to find links or mechanical materials with spatial attributes, but his own strength would also easily lead to engraving failure, causing him to regress greatly in strength and miss the opportunity to advance to the ninth level.
It is better to seize this opportunity which may only come once in a lifetime and step into the ninth level.
It wants stable happiness!
"Indeed, I feel that you have become a lot stronger."
Lanci agreed.
When Boss Cat reached level eight, his magic power was comparable to that of level five.
Now that it has reached the ninth level, it cannot be underestimated even among the sixth level.
Going beyond three levels is too abnormal.
"Meow?"
The cat boss looked up, saw Lanqi's expression of serious thinking, and slowly put down Lanqi and Tata.
Lanqi seems to be thinking of something very rude again!
Before the cat owner questioned Lanqi, Talia squatted down curiously and touched the cat owner.
"By the way, Boss Cat, you are already at level nine, can't you transform into a human?"
Thalia asked.
The magical beasts in their old demon world would naturally transform at the seventh level without actively learning the art of transformation. Some of them would only master this talent at the eighth level later. However, Taliyah had never heard of a beast at the ninth level that could not transform into a human.
"Meow meow? Will other animal creatures also transform when they reach the ninth level?"
According to what Tata said, the cat boss felt that everyone could do it except him.
But it really didn't feel like it had figured out any transformation techniques.
If he really wanted to change to a state where he could walk on two legs, he would have to rely on Ranchi's [Transformation: Human].
"..."
Talia's eyes suddenly became quite sympathetic.
"Tata, why are you so rude, meow!" The cat owner felt that Talia's eyes were asking it, "Are you open? I mean, intelligence."
"No, there isn't."
Talia shook her head in denial.
"No, it's not that I can't transform, but there's really no need to transform into a human. Tata, if you transform into a cat once, you'll know, meow, being a cat is really comfortable. On the contrary, the human body is full of difficulties, and it's hard to keep balance!"
The cat boss looked up and tried to explain to Talia.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Cat, I really didn't mean to laugh at you."
Talia stroked the cat boss's back to comfort the little black cat.
She respected Boss Cat much more than Lanqi did. She and Boss Cat were good friends who had known each other since they arrived in Ikerit.
But she didn't care about what Boss Cat said.
She was used to the human form and didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
"The sorting out of the Shadow World is almost complete, and the settlement should also be completed."
Lanqi read the text of the Shadow World and preached to Talia.
Now they are all in a relaxed mood.
Talia stood up and waited for the final settlement reward of the Shadow World with Lanqi.
"It would be best if I could give you a seventh-level [Chimera Edict]. That sealing technique is very versatile."
She said to Lanqi.
In the Mirror of Tiberius, she and Lanci saw the spells that Lanclos once mastered.
The most likely reward for Lanqi is related to the two ultimate powerful enemies he defeated, Lord Blasphemy Merogas or the third ancestor Duke Lachar. Of course, it may also be related to Lord Black Sun Lanclos, whom he played.
Probably drawn from these three prize pools.
"It's really good."
Lanqi experienced this spell in the Mirror of Tiberius and felt that it was a universal spell.
[Chimeric Edict] can seal an immobile target or a target much weaker than itself into a chimeric stone pillar. The seal cannot be released until the chimeric stone pillar is destroyed from the inside or outside.
Sometimes it can also be used to defend yourself when the enemy's attack is about to arrive.
These are all Lancroix's usages.
"Forget about [Eternal Punishment of Immortality]. Don't draw it and it will count as a success."
Talia was filled with repulsion towards the other sealing technique.
Even though it is Lanclos's signature spell, the side effects are too great.
Although the black centipede mark that appeared on his face after using Eternal Punishment of Immortality would probably scare the Vampire Clan's ancestor, if that situation occurred, he would definitely be in the same desperate situation as Lanclos.
Talia didn't want Lanci to use this spell again at all.
If Lanqi drew it, he might actually use it.
The only thing to be thankful for is that at least she has a backup plan for Ranch. In the worst case scenario, she can turn Ranch into her familiar before he becomes undead, and live with him forever. When her life is about to end, she will also help her familiar to be freed.
"Don't worry, Master. As a familiar, I have to ask you to measure your blood pressure every day."
Lanci heard what Talia was thinking.
I don't know whether to thank her or tell her not to think like that.
"What should I do? We have been getting by for so long. I can't let my only disciple die like this."
Talia's thoughts were interrupted, and she subconsciously replied to him,
"No, I don't mean..."
Before Talia could explain anything, she saw new changes.
[The final node of the Blood Moon World, Ranchi & Talia & Yami rewards have been anchored. 】
A ball of light surrounded by colorful mist began to emerge from the void.
The first ball of light appeared like a planet and approached the cat boss.
"Why is this card so bright...?"
Boss Cat opened his mouth wide as he looked at his brightest pink light.
It's not like it hasn't seen pink holy magic cards before, but it has never seen magic power this bright and blinding.
"This could be a ninth-tier magic card. It's even rarer than an eighth-tier magic card."
Talia stared intently at the pink ball of light and made her judgment.
Magic cards that reach the eighth level rarely appear in auction houses even in the Southern Continent Card Makers Association.
As for natural magic cards, they often contain magic principles that are related to the shadow world of the challenge and do not belong to the real world, so most of them have higher value than artificial cards of the same quality and level.
Ninth-level magic cards are even harder to come by.
There are only a few creatures in the same era who can use this kind of magic card.
"Boss Cat, 90% pink may be more noble than 80% orange in some sense."
Lanqi also looked at Boss Cat, staring at the pink sacred light surrounding Boss Cat.
"Like this, meow."
Boss Cat didn't quite understand Lanqi's unique terminology, but surprisingly he understood what he meant.
As the cat boss gently raised his paw and touched the ball of light, a translucent pink slate with a divine airflow pattern appeared in front of it.
【Night Dew Wind Song】
[Category: Spell Card]
[Grade: Pink Holy]
[Attribute: Wind/Healing]
[Level: 9]
[Effect: Consumes all mana and puts the player to sleep, granting herd immunity to all targets within range, gradually restoring health and mana, cooldown time 1 hour.]
[Note: When the distant sun shines deep into your dream, you will wake up when the breeze blows again.]
The cat boss quickly turned around and looked at Talia and Lanqi.
It doesn't know whether this card is good or not.
But it is the only ninth-level card that can be used.
Before he could ask a question.
"It's average, an upgraded version of the Storm Dragon."
"It can withstand the damage of the ninth level, and has the added bonus of noble mana recovery."
"But after using it, the cat boss disconnected."
"There is no qualitative change. It is equivalent to strengthening the characteristics of the past."
Lanci and Talia were already discussing seriously, with only each other and the magic card in their eyes.
"Why are you two rehashing this already?"
Boss Cat suspected that the two of them were almost losing their physical memories from working together to make cards.
When they saw the magic cards, they immediately entered Tata's classroom mode.
"So is this card good or bad, meow?"
Boss Cat interrupted their conversation and asked anxiously.
Compared to the eighth-tier epic necklace [Dawn Storm] that seemed invincible at first glance last time, this ninth-tier sacred spell [Night Dew and Wind Song] seems a bit weaker.
"It's worse than Dawnstorm, but it's a spell card, and it's simple and crude to use."
Talia looked at this ninth-level pink sacred image and commented.
And it’s level nine.
The special effects must be cool.
"Boss Cat, with you here, I have five more lives. You are simply the strongest."
Lanqi added, picking up the cat boss and said.
"Meow meow meow meow meow meow~"
After hearing the high praise from the two platinum-level card makers, the cat boss happily sang and spun around.
"Wow, meow, Ranchi, you've never had any life-saving magic, so I'm really becoming more and more useful, meow!"
Boss Cat immediately became happy.
"Boss Cat..."
Talia thought that the cat boss should not be so confident.
Sometimes being optimized is just a matter of a moment.
Just like who could have thought that Lanqi's final big brother Lanfu would suddenly be eliminated.
"Where are you two?"
The cat boss lay on Lanqi's shoulder and looked at Talia and Lanqi. There was no ball of light in front of them yet.
The two of them were standing on the steps of the Critical Space Star Plaza.
"Shadow World is much slower in distributing rewards this time than last time."
Lanqi turned his head and looked at the cat boss as he spoke.
It seems that the more complex the rewards, the slower Shadow World distributes them.
"If the pink sacred one that Cat Boss got is sacred, then what Pranay and the other four got is probably also sacred."
Talia thought.
Low-level epics are probably a little better, but the production conditions for high-level epics, even in high-level shadow worlds, are very difficult.
Originally, the contribution of these four great demons might not earn them any magic card rewards, but in the end, they should have no problem getting the eighth-level sacred rank for assisting.
"The eighth-level natural magic card, the pink sacred one, is also very powerful. It is a product of its time that is impossible to buy or make."
Lanqi guessed that only Siglei could get the eighth-level epic natural magic card.
Not only did she defeat the ultimate enemy of the shadow world, Lord of Blasphemy Merogas, head-on, but she also accomplished the irreplaceable feat of leading the Holy Spirit Kingdom and becoming the second Pope. Her contribution should be quite high.
"Sieglie? How can Sieglie get a reward?"
Talia accidentally heard Lanqi's question.
She suspected that Lanqi had just come out of the shadow world and was not yet sober enough.
Of course, as a mother, she missed Siglee very much, but she didn't dream of meeting Siglee again in the real world.
"Yes, sparrow food."
Lanqi quickly changed his mind and replied.
suddenly.
Talia saw a clear ball of light gradually appear in front of her.
One of them glowed orange, the other purple.
Both are rewards that belong to her.
"I have two? And I also have an epic..."
Talia is not sure how much she has contributed to this shadow world.
Although she participated in both final battles against powerful enemies, she was more of a supporting role.
Most of the time, it is used to accompany the main character Lanqi.
"Master, you are really useful in this Shadow World."
Lanci approved.
"Hehe, you know what big sister is good for, right?"
Talia snorted softly and took the lead to touch the orange light ball.
The light spread out and turned into pure magic. The translucent card felt cool to the touch, and the light tones had a slight gradient. From the center to the edge, the color gradually became lighter and more elegant, like the sparkling waves on the shallows of the ocean.
This aura was so familiar that Talia immediately recognized it as the power of Kaliela.
[The Veil of Fallen Heaven]
[Category: Spell Card]
[Level: Orange Epic]
[Attribute: Illusion/Hidden]
[Rank: 1]
[Effect: After activation, all detection spells will be blocked, your appearance will be hidden, and the other party will see the appearance they want to see the most. ]
[Note: Put on the veil and you can become her. ]
"So it's this spell."
Taliyah didn't need to identify it to understand its effect.
Because her entire shadow world is using almost the same passive spells.
"Tata, you got a skin card, meow?"
Cat Boss floated over and said while looking at this epic card.
It has seen several skin cards made by Lanqi, especially the skins of the Great Love Poet, which have many exclusive changes that only the Great Love Poet can use. Now they have all been taken away by Taliyah.
But those are all rare purple variation cards.
This Kaliela skin is unprecedentedly epic and so luxurious that even the cat boss doesn't know how terrifying the number would be if it were to be priced.
"Don't underestimate the effect of this concealment. No one in the entire Shadow World could tell that she was Talia."
Lanqi poked the cat boss's head and explained.
This is not just a simple skin, but a natural ability of Kaliela that allows him to truly possess the properties of illusion and concealment. Only a supreme illusionist like Kaliela can possess such a talent.
Because of this veil, after Talia turned into Kaliera, other creatures could not detect her true identity at all.
The only possible way to identify her is to remember her through some physical means.
"for example?"
Talia asked Ranchi in confusion.
Her entire shadow world is covered with a veil, and no one knows how others can identify her. According to Lanqi, Kaliela's concealment is not unsolvable.
"..."
Lanqi hadn't answered yet, but he sniffed reflexively.
"Go to hell! Lanqi! Don't smell me! You pervert!"
Talia suddenly became agitated, stretched out her hands and turned her head away, trying her best to resist Lanqi from getting close to her.
She knew that since she became the Crazy Love Demon King, she had inherited the scent of plants and flowers from the Great Love Poet, but Lan Qiwen definitely meant something else.
Damn this guy!
"But Tata, the floral scent on you is indeed very unique. Siglei always subconsciously buries her face in you."
Boss Cat explained for Lanqi.
It already understands.
In addition to touching Tata directly, you can also tell her true identity by her smell.
As an animal, the cat boss relies on his sense of smell more than humans, and he is also a chef.
In the film world, Siglei is a bit like a dog. Not only is she extremely sensitive to the aura of warriors, she is also good at distinguishing smells.
“Isn’t the floral scent on me different from that of the great poet of love?”
Talia hesitated briefly and asked the cat boss.
If her scent is similar to that of the Great Love Poet, then Hyperion should be able to smell it and discover some clues in the shadow world.
"It's different, meow. The great poet of love is probably as sweet as strawberry yogurt? And your scent seems to change depending on your mood, meow."
Boss Cat recalled.
"What exactly is it like?"
Talia originally thought that after becoming the Crazy Love Demon King, she would also possess the floral fragrance characteristics of the Great Love Poet, and there would be no difference.
"Meow meow……"
Boss Cat was lost in thinking about the universe; he was at a loss for words and couldn't describe it.
"When you're with Xiu Bao, you exude a soft, layered scent of milk, magnolia, and distilled liquor. Occasionally, when you take care of me, you exude a scent of lavender, sweet orange, and vetiver, which can relieve anxiety and boost your mood. Only very rarely, like when we went out together in Huadu, will you have a sweet scent like fruit wine..."
Lanqi held his chin, recalling and analyzing.
"Stop talking!"
Talia's face turned red and she covered Lanqi's mouth.
She hadn't thought that Lanqi would be so impressed by her taste.
The more specific the description was, the hotter her face became.
This guy seemed to be tasting her seriously.
She herself can hardly smell herself.
But Lanqi liked to smell her, so she could understand.
"By the way, meow, what's the other one?"
Boss Cat looked up at the inconspicuous ball of purple light.
If it hadn't remembered that Talia had two rewards, it would have been ready to wait for Lanqi's reward to appear.
Talia also came to her senses, let go of Lanqi, and rubbed her palms on Lanqi's body.
She then realized that the boy had smelled her at close range again, and might even have tasted her.
"Purple magic cards shouldn't be anything special..."
Talia reached out and grabbed the purple light ball, and the moment she saw the magic card, her voice stopped abruptly.
[Transformation: Cat]

[Level: 2]
[Effect: After use, the race can be changed to a cat, without changing its true attributes and characteristics. The cooling time is 24 hours. ]
[Note: Tamisa learned magic from the book left by Kaliela.]
Talia looked at Lanqi with a somewhat stiff expression.
"I don't need this card, ahahaha."
She laughed dryly.
Lanqi always liked to say that she looked like a big gray cat, but she always resisted and insisted that she was not a cat.
But what does this shadow world mean?
"..."
Lanqi just smiled and looked at her quietly.
There was a hint of pity in his eyes, as well as a hint of encouragement for her.
"You take this one, Lanqi."
Talia handed the card graciously to Lanqi.
They are master and disciple, so there is nothing wrong with giving each other some magic cards as gifts. Lanqi doesn't need to be polite!
"No, this is obviously for you, Master."
Lanqi politely raised his hand and refused.
"I really have no use for this card. How can I use it to turn into a cat?"
Talia held [Transformation: Cat] like a hot potato and shouted in confusion.
She turned to look at the cat boss.
"I don't want meow."
Boss Cat answered in advance.
It is a cat to begin with, so it is impossible for it to need this card to transform into a cat.
Talia looked at the card with great difficulty and didn't want to put it away.
It would be a shame to lose the natural magic cards from the Shadow World; they could be sold for a lot of money.
It’s better to give Xiu Bao as a gift.
Anyway, she doesn't need this card herself.
Talia was conflicted.
at this time.
She suddenly heard the cat boss's exclamation.
The corner of Talia's eye was also illuminated by the red light.
She raised her eyes in surprise and looked in the direction of Lanqi.
There were also two balls of light that appeared from Lanqi's absence.
Just like the last Shadow World, there is a main reward and a gift.
"Hey, Ranchi, meow, why is your reward glowing red? Meow!"
The cat boss patted Lanqi's head and widened his cat eyes.
"Could it be...?"
Talia's eyelids twitched in disbelief.
This red is so real that it has completely deviated from the orange category.
Since it is not Lanclos's orange epic, it is probably the red legend transformed from the weight of his life.
"Red legend?"
Lanqi's expression remained calm, as if the grade of the magic card no longer mattered to him.
The truly powerful force is never "desired" but "already possessed".
He raised his hand as usual and touched the red ball of light.
This magic card gradually revived in his hand.
The card surface is completely black, so dark that it swallows up all light. It seems as if it was condensed from the darkness in an endless abyss, and yet it looks like a living thing.
After the red light ball was turned on, it turned into a door leading to an unknown area. Dense alchemical patterns coiled around the red light, as if they would explode and fly away from the red light in the next moment and turn into a terrifying monster.
Until the red light completely dissipated.
