Chapter 279: Heart

The efficiency of the Void Assassin is very high.

Following the breath obtained from Lu He, almost all the enemies who were watching in the dark were killed.

Among them, there was even a knight.

In fact, the frontal combat ability of the Void Assassin is not strong, just a little stronger than the high-level knight attendant.

The main reason is that their ability to travel through the void and hide invisibly is too weird, and they have no material entity, so ordinary material attacks are not very useful to them, similar to spirits.

But such a Void Assassin is not even an ordinary soldier in the void system, at most cannon fodder.

This shows the power of the nine Void Lords.

In addition, strictly speaking, the Void Assassin is an invisible creature, not a void creature defined by the wizard.

Because if it is really a void creature that is in a hostile state with the wizard, he dare not summon it.

This is a bit confusing, and Lu He doesn't quite understand it.

The Eye of Inheritance records that invisible creatures exist in any world. They live in different time levels from the creatures in the endless world, and most of them cannot be seen with the naked eye.

All creatures living in this level, this realm, are called invisible creatures by wizards.

Meaning invisible creatures.

Lu He can understand this. The visible light that humans can see is only a very small range in the spectrum, and the rest are invisible.

Everyone on Earth knows that this world, this universe, is actually still very dark for us.

And the wizard discovered that in the midst of this countless darkness, there are many unimaginable strange lives.

Because some characteristics of void creatures are very similar to these invisible creatures, wizards sometimes even suspect that void creatures are overly powerful invisible creatures on a certain level.

Lu He sat in the carriage and pondered for a long time.

The Mother River is mysterious and unpredictable, and time and space change endlessly. No one can see through everything, not even the ancestor.

Every time he comes into contact with knowledge that he cannot understand or has no authority, Lu He feels how insignificant he is.

And this is also one of his motivations to move forward.

Fortunately, he came to this world through the Mother River, and saw the vastness and mystery of the Mother River, and saw the strange scenery.

His original arrogance and conceit gradually subsided, turning into a kind of exploration and knowledge of everything.

"I want to peek into the truth of the world, explore everything about the Mother River, from low to high, from humble to great, what it is like." Lu He said to himself.

"I don't want to come to this world unclearly, and die unclearly like this..."

He smiled and gently opened the car window.

The streets were particularly quiet late at night, and the gurgling sound of the carriage wheels echoed in the empty streets.

The deserted streets were lined with densely packed three- or four-story gray-white residential buildings or shops.

Lu He raised his head slightly.

In another block on the cliff in the distance, in a tall spire building.

A woman in white put away the black sword in her hand with an ugly look, and a look of fear appeared on her delicate face.

"Your Highness, are you okay?" A guard in brass armor knelt on one knee and asked respectfully.

The armor on the guard's abdomen had cracked, and there were still strands of blood flowing out of the surface.

There were several broken limbs and arms around her, and blood was constantly flowing and gathering on the ground. The nervous guards held metal shields to form an airtight circle to surround her in the middle.

Olivia covered her chest, her face was extremely pale.

A small hole had been torn in the outer garment and the bra inside her chest, revealing her white and red chest underneath.

Just now, the transparent sword blade was only a finger away from her heart and would have pierced her chest.

If the guard hadn't reacted in time and blocked the sword for her, she might have been lying down at this time.

In the end, three of the elite guards she brought fell, and a knight was seriously injured.

"Junior sister, what happened!?"

Hua Long, carrying a half-person-high alloy broadsword, quickly jumped onto the spire and appeared on the top of the tower like a ghost.

His face was cold and murderous, and the powerful energy filled his body, like thunder. His eyes were piercing and very bright, shining brightly in the dark night.

After appearing suddenly, the powerful momentum completely covered the entire top of the tower, leaving no dead corners.

"Junior sister, are you okay? Who did it?"

Hua Long's eyes were sharp, and he scanned the surroundings like lightning, but he didn't find anything unusual.

He rushed over immediately after seeing the distress signal sent by the junior sister, and it took no more than a minute.

"I'm fine." Olivia shook her head slightly, and her heart was slightly relieved after seeing Senior Hua Long.

"It's Sauron..." She paused and held back Sauron's name, "Let's leave first."

"Junior sister, don't be afraid, I'm here, no one can hurt you!" Hua Long's tone was gentle and cold.

He had this confidence. As the peak of the knight level, no one in the entire king's capital could do anything except those two.

Olivia nodded blankly.

She covered her chest and walked to the spiral staircase, unconsciously holding the tower and looking down.

This glance made her look horrified instantly.

On the hazy street, in the window of the black carriage, a familiar face was looking up at her with a toothy smile, and the white teeth gave people an indescribable gloomy feeling.

Finding that Olivia was not right, Hualong also looked over, and his pupils suddenly shrank sharply.

Under those scarlet eyes, he felt a chill in his heart, and his whole spine seemed to be frozen and filled with cold air.

He took a deep breath to calm down his excitement, stood there without making a sound, and just tried to restrain his gaze.

Olivia's brows furrowed slightly when she found that the seniors next to her had stopped their activities and retreated their troops.

Although she understood, she was still disappointed.

This is a normal reaction when facing a Heavenly Knight, and the same will happen if you switch to other levels of knights.

It's just that she is a princess, a real princess, and the knights around her should protect her without fear.

Even if it's just a simple stare back.

Hualong was very thick-skinned. Although he caught a glimpse of the disappointment of his beloved schoolgirl from the corner of his eye, he remained motionless.

Hedong in thirty years, Hexi in thirty years.

He is a young knight at the peak of his career. He has a high probability of being promoted to a knight, and he has a bright future.

Being cowardly now does not mean that you will be cowardly in the future. It is just a tactical retreat at this moment and there is no shame in it.

If he rushes over in passion, the result will definitely be cut in half by Sauron's sword, which would be a real shame.

Don't let your emotions control you.

The teacher had taught him that although love would allow him to unleash one hundred and two percent of his power, it would also slow down the speed at which he could draw his sword, so he only needed that one hundred and two percent power.

After a long time, the two left silently.

…

The carriage left the neighborhood, which had become extremely quiet. Half an hour later, a familiar creek appeared in front of it.

The river meanders like a ribbon, and the pale moonlight falls on the surface of the river, casting countless white phosphorescent lights.

Return to the villa.

As soon as I sat in the study, the doorbell rang, and the little maid Nicole opened the door pushing a white dining cart and came in.

The dining car was covered with a white gauze cover and exuded a faint aroma. All of them were Lu He's favorite Dongzhou dishes.

Little Nicole is now very enthusiastic about cooking. She has purchased various cuisine materials through various channels to learn the dishes he likes. After learning, she can make a menu for him to order.

Just like now, she prepares beef in sauce, steamed rice tamales, stir-fried shredded potatoes, eggplant with minced meat...

Of course the name was given by Lu He.

These names made him feel like he was back on earth. Every time he ate, he would have a familiar yet unfamiliar feeling.

After eating quietly, Lu He began to read.

Mainly looking at his experimental data, the shelf next to the desk is filled with a thick stack of manuscripts and books.

Reviewing the past and learning something new, these are all analysis, testing, demonstration and results of the principles of his experiments.

However, what he brought was experimental data related to bloodline, such as bloodline separation and extraction, mutation optimization, etc.

At this time Yue Ling stepped in.

She was wearing a white nightgown, exuding a faint fragrance, and her hair was a little wet. She must have just taken a shower.

The neckline of the upper body reveals the elegant and sexy collarbone and the deep and attractive ravine. The nightgown only reaches a little below the hips, and the two long and round legs shine white under the light.

Under the bright light, not only her skin was dazzlingly white, but she could even faintly see that she was not wearing underwear.

Half-elves are very conservative and would not wear such revealing clothes, let alone in front of their brother-in-law.

It's just that she is too lazy to put her clothes back on. Of course, the most important thing is that she knows that Lu He will ignore her while he is reading.

very safe.

She placed the prepared snacks in the gap between the manuscripts on the desk and looked at the manuscripts on the table.

The data above is completely incomprehensible.

She knew the words in it individually, but when they were put together, she had no idea what they meant. There were a lot of incomprehensible symbols and letters, and it seemed very profound.

"The osmanthus cake and green tea are here."

Yue Ling whispered something, but as expected she received no response. She turned around and walked out slightly disappointed.

He looked back before closing the door.

Lu He was flipping through the manuscript and reading it attentively, while unconsciously picking up the cake and stuffing it into his mouth.

Time passes little by little.

After reading in the room until early morning, Lu He put down the manuscript in his hand.

He got up and moved around a bit. Instead of going to the bedroom, he walked to the nearby laboratory.

Turning on the light inside, the newly installed light suddenly lit up, so white that it was even a bit pale.

Lu He walked to the experimental table.

Gently press the tabletop with your hand, it vibrates slightly, and with a snap, a dark grid pops up on the tabletop.

There is a black notebook inside.

After sitting down, he opened the notebook and saw that it was filled with densely packed magic symbols.

It’s just that these technical symbols are ugly, as scrawled as the random drawings made by elementary school students on scratch paper, and there is no pattern at all, and they are crowded together here and there.

But as Lu He watched.

This originally ordinary black notebook now had mysterious patterns faintly appearing on the pages, like silver vines, covering the entire notebook.

"Has it started to fade away...?"

Lu He gently rubbed the page. The original paper was obviously just a relatively high-end paper on the market.

But now it seems to be contaminated by the old prophecy symbols he wrote, and the entire paper takes on a skin texture that feels like stroking dry human skin.

It's as if it's made from the skin of a dying old man, and even the color is full of old people's spots.

"Old Classics, record the symbols of the Dark Old Days in a book, use your own soul power to nourish it during the writing process, and finally form an Old Day seed."

"After cultivating this Old Day seed, you can trace back everything related to a specific Old Day breath."

Lu He gently put it on the notebook, took out the pen clipped next to it, picked up the pen and slowly continued to write on it.

This is the second prophecy-based time and space retracing spell he learned after the Alod Magic Mirror.

The difficulty is much higher. Lu He spends a little time on it every day, but he has only completed less than a quarter.

…

Late at night, the Cloud Light District of the Royal Capital.

Pop!

The vase was smashed to the ground and shattered.

Vince Bainok's old face was blue with veins, breathing heavily, his throat kept moving, and the whole person seemed to be on the verge of collapse in anger.

In the gorgeous room full of golden lanterns and wall lamps, there were two other subordinates standing in front of him.

Although he was wearing leather armor and had a strong body, his forehead was covered with dense beads of sweat.

Both of them bent down and dared not stand up.

"My son Beram is dead?! We just finished dinner together, less than two hours ago, and now you suddenly come to tell me that he is dead?"

Vince did not hide his anger at all.

Although Beram was not his chosen heir, it was because he had a bad temper and was not suitable for politics.

But he was his son with the best cultivation talent. He was already a strong knight in his thirties and was the one in the Bainok family who had the most hope of breaking through to the Sky Knight.

And now, he is dead...

Vince seemed to be holding back a rage that had nowhere to vent, making his heart painful like a knife.

"Sauron...!!!" He almost gritted his teeth and said the name.

Originally, he thought it was just a conflict of money and interests, but now it has become a blood feud with the Soros family.

"Sauron... I will make you die!"

Vince's face was distorted.

Zoro swallowed up Bainok's assets in Xiangmu City, but he didn't care. After all, Zoro was a Sky Knight, and it was his eldest daughter Shilin who first thought of it, so it was an apology to Zoro.

But now Zoro actually killed his son!

It was just to monitor Zoro's whereabouts, in order to know where he had been and who he had met.

Vince never expected that Zoro was a murderer, and he would just start without even saying hello, without considering any consequences.

"Do you think you can do whatever you want just because you are a Sky Knight? Do you think you can disobey the rules in the capital!?"

Vince murmured in a low voice. He was silent for a long time, barely suppressed his anger, and turned to look at his subordinates behind him.

"You go and prepare the carriage now... Forget it, prepare it tomorrow morning."

Vince suddenly thought of Speaker Hosiman's regular schedule. At this time, he must have been asleep.

Can't and dare not disturb.
