"Of course, but you need to absorb Sister Nimega's magic power. You may have to be patient." Abe replied. "Ah? Coming again?" Nimega said in embarrassment. "Be obedient, this is also for us to pass quickly, otherwise you go and deal with this endless group of slimes?" Isidor asked back. "Go ahead and suck it. This perverted master must like it." Nimega said after giving up struggling. Chapter 24: Groundless Smoke "I'm starting!" Abe said, and Nymega's chest rose and fell violently. She groaned and fell to the ground, and she slowly stood up while holding on to the wall. "Aibei, be gentle...that place is very sensitive..." Nimega said in a soft voice. Isidor imagined what Nymega looked like under her clothes, and a fire rose in his belly. If he wasn't in danger, he might have severely replenished her magic on the spot. "Okay, Brother Isidor, I have replenished enough magic power. Next, please hold Sister Nimega's hand and don't let go no matter what happens." Abe said. Isidore took Nimega's hand as he was told, and a ball of pink gelatinous substance slowly climbed up Isidore's arm and onto his body, spreading out into a thin film, then swelled into a sphere like a bubble, wrapping the two of them.
Isidor touched the inner wall of the sphere out of curiosity and felt it was slippery, as comfortable as soaking in jelly. "Okay, this way the slime will think you are of the same kind. As long as you don't attack actively, nothing will happen!" Abe said firmly. "This slime coat is quite cool. I think it can be used as a mattress in summer, right, Nimega?" Isidor said with a smile. "Yeah, there's no smoke without fire. How can it not be cool?" Nimega said with a red face, holding up the hem of her skirt. Isidor was stunned for a moment before he realized that Abe had always been Nymega's underwear. Now that Abe had turned into a slime bubble, Nymega naturally had to go into battle topless. [Ghost value has been increased to 220] [Obtained racial skills: Wild Burst LV2] Perhaps due to the XP boost from the vacuum, Isidor's Ghostly Beast value rose by another 10 points without him noticing. The two of them hid in the bubble that Abe had transformed into and continued to move forward. As expected, the slime did not launch any more attacks. At most, it just tried to touch the edge of the bubble before sliding away. "You little brat is quite useful." Isidor said with satisfaction. "Hmph, it's because you sucked my magic power. I deserve at least one third of the credit for this wave." Nymega said jealously. "Okay, okay, don't open the champagne at halftime. Let's talk about the credit after we get the sword," said Isidor. The two of them walked and talked, and soon passed through a passage filled with slime traps. What appeared before them was a gloomy tomb chamber. Abe couldn't stand the cold and quickly shrank back into Nymega's body. "This should be the deepest part, but why are there no coffins?" Nymega said curiously. "How should I know? Look around, in case there is some mechanism or something." Isidor spread his hands. The two were about to search for it, but at this moment, a young man in a tattered robe walked out from the darkness. Isidor and Nymega quickly took a defensive posture. It was impossible for anyone to be alive in the tomb at this time. It was most likely some kind of undead monster. "Are you a guest? I'll make tea for you right away." However, the man showed no intention of attacking. Instead, he elegantly took out a few cups and placed them on the table. Then, like a magic trick, he took out a teapot and poured tea.
"Hey, master, what's going on?" Nymega asked in a low voice. "You ask me, who should I ask?" Isidor was also a little confused and had to stay put. "The tea is ready, why don't you drink it?" The man raised his head and looked at the two of them in confusion. "Hey, there seems to be words on top of his head. It seems to say 'Don't tell me...it's a bit unclear below.'" Nymega said in a low voice. Isidor took a closer look and found that there was indeed a line of words tattooed on the man's forehead. "Excuse me, are you the owner of this place?" Isidor decided to test it out. He walked forward boldly and took a cup of tea from the man. "Oh, yes, I'm a scholar, researching technology that can make all of humanity happy, but no one understands my good intentions, so I have no choice but to hide here and do my research slowly," the man replied. "Really? I also know a scholar who is not recognized by others." Isidor said casually, holding the teacup and retreating, whispering to Nymega beside him: "The words on his head are 'Don't tell me I'm dead'. Do you know what this means?" Nymega frowned and lowered her head to think for a while: "I don't know." Isidor was so angry that he flicked his head and said, "I don't know what you are pretending to be." "Hahaha, there's no need for you two to be so alert. I think you came here for the legendary sword." The man laughed heartily. "Ah, you figured it out." Nimega said embarrassedly. "Of course, I was the one who released the news." The man's smile suddenly stopped, and the expression on his face gave people a very weird feeling. "Anyway, if you two want the sword, I'm willing to give it to you, just as if we were making friends. But... as friends, I also want you two to do me a favor." The man said sinisterly. "Are you going to leave someone here? I choose to leave her here." Isidor pointed at Nymega and said. "Ah! Master, can you please have some moral integrity? I am your new maid!" Nimega said indignantly. "Don't worry, I'm not that cruel, and it won't do me any good. I just want you two to help me read this." The man smiled kindly, took out a roll of parchment from his robe and spread it out on the table. The two stopped arguing and looked forward. They saw a passage written in neat handwriting on the parchment: "I would like to warn everyone who sees this passage: Do not read this passage: If you see this, it means I am dead. My corpse will probably do everything in its power to make you read this, because if you repeat my words in life, I will regain the memory and strength of my prime. However, this was not my intention. I must die while I am still conscious and seal all of this forever in the tomb. Even so, that power will revive me again and again, right? It's too horrible to ever see the light of day. Please read the above sentence completely, only in this way can my soul be liberated. 』 After reading this text, Isidor quickly sorted out the information he had obtained: the man in front of him was probably the necromancer that Nymega mentioned. Judging from the meaning of this passage, it seems that the warlock felt that he was out of control, so he deliberately locked himself in this place and wrote down these warnings.
But if you don't want people to see it, why write it? And the last sentence of the text contradicts the previous content, it looks like it was newly added. Who should I believe? And what does “that power” mentioned in the article refer to? There are too many mysteries, and the information I have is seriously insufficient. Isidor was lost in thought for a moment. "Can't you read it yourself?" While Isidor was still thinking hard, Nymega suddenly asked curiously. "Ah, this won't work. It absolutely won't work. I can never read this passage by myself. Even if I know every word on it, I can never understand its meaning. Because the meaning of this passage must be instilled into me from the outside to be useful." The man shook his head frantically, looking terrified. "Master, please be prepared for battle, it seems something is coming." At this moment, Abe, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke up to remind him. Chapter 25 Evolution Before he finished speaking, there was a loud bang and the young man slapped the table with his palm, breaking half of the stone tabletop. "Hey! Damn it, read! Why not read? You're all afraid of death, right? You don't want to read, right? I tell you, it's useless to live if you don't read!" The young man suddenly screamed hysterically, his eyes bulged out, and all the joints in his body made a creaking sound, as if something in his body was about to burst out. "Hey, calm down first. We didn't say we wouldn't read it." Isidor said calmly. "Oh? It seems that I have wronged you two. I was so out of control just now. I'm sorry!" After hearing this, the man forced himself to hold back and said politely. "Master, do you really want to read it? This is obviously a trap!" Nimega said worriedly. "Stop talking nonsense, are you the master or am I the master? Abe, bite her!" Isidor said impatiently. "Got it! Crunch, crunch..." After hearing this, Abei started to nibble on Nymega's body. Although she didn't have teeth, she still made Nymega feel itchy. "Ahem, you have to be more formal when reading this, you have to be prepared!" Isidor said, holding up the parchment in a pretentious manner. “You’re right, but Genshin Impact is a brand new open world adventure game independently developed by miHoYo…” Isidor read out, shaking his head. "Eh? Wait, something's wrong with you?" the young man said with his eyes wide open. "Something's wrong? Then take a look for yourself!" Isidor said, throwing the parchment over. The man hurriedly took the parchment with both hands. Isidor took the opportunity to draw his green sword, pierced through the parchment and stabbed it into the man's chest. "Shock!" Isidor shouted, and the shock wave of the green sword exploded in the man's chest, directly blowing the man's entire body into pieces. "Wow, you are worthy of being the master! You killed the opponent with just one blow - by the way, Abe, how long are you going to keep biting?" Nimega cheered. "Don't establish Falg yet. I don't think this guy will die that easily." Isidor said seriously. Before he finished speaking, a strange laugh was heard, and the wall suddenly collapsed, and a young man in a robe walked out. "You think it's not easy to kill me, Earl Tiexin, with just a few tricks!" The man sneered, kicked his legs wildly, and flew up into the air. "Master, be careful! This guy doesn't look right!" Nymega warned. At this moment, the man was seen kicking the ceiling and rushing straight down towards Isidor from top to bottom.
Seeing this, Nymega quickly stood in front of Isidor and blocked the attack with her dagger. The man flew aside like a spring and stood still, while Nymega was forced to retreat several steps, and it did not look easy. "Master, it seems we can't fight head-on. I'll try to hold him back, and you attack from behind!" Nymega said palely. "No, his target is me, let me take over the front." Isidor said, raising the green sword and standing in front of Nymega. "But…" Before Nimeka could finish her words, the man attacked again, still jumping onto the ceiling and using the reaction force of kicking against the wall to hit downwards. The man's impact was so fast that Isidor couldn't dodge it with his speed. So he didn't try to hide. Isidor was seen standing in a horse stance, holding the sword with one hand and the hilt with the other, and launching a shock attack the moment the man collided with him. A shock wave bounced the two men away at the same time. The force of the collision and the power of the shock finally made the man still unstable after landing. But Nymega did not miss this opportunity. She raised her dagger, aimed at the place where the man fell, and chopped off his head with one blow. "This guy is really hard to deal with." Isidor rubbed his aching arms. His magic power was not enough to launch the next shock, and even his health points dropped by nearly half. This is still the case with the blessing of patience, otherwise I would have died on the spot. "Nimega, finish him off quickly, don't let him come back to life!" Isidor shouted loudly, regardless of his own injuries. Upon hearing this, Nymega hastily raised her dagger and was about to chop the man's body on the ground into pieces. However, at this moment, the man's body turned into a black gas and sank into the stone wall on one side. Then, the stone wall exploded again, and the man walked out of it unharmed. “Perfection will never end. I am the legendary immortal.” The man sneered. "Really? If so, why did you want me to read that paragraph?" Isidor stared into the man's eyes, intending to delay time by talking and take the opportunity to use hypnosis. “Haha, you mortals won’t understand.” The man sneered. [Hypnosis failed] [No legal target selected] When Isidor heard the prompt sound that the hypnosis failed, he felt a chill in his heart: Could it be that hypnosis doesn't work because the other party is dead? “Haha, let me show you my true strength.” The man said, raising his hands, and a dozen skeletons immediately appeared on the ground. Unlike the previous skeletons, these skeletons have thick bones, are covered in armor, and hold a variety of weapons in their hands. They are obviously not the kind of soldiers that will break into pieces at the slightest touch. "It's not over yet! Watch what I do!" the man said, pointing his finger at Isidor, and dozens of black air penetrated into his body. [Negative states have been added: weakness, disability, deceleration, despair, dark parasite, chronic poison, defense break, skill seal, aging, reduced resistance, blindness, deafness, restraint, fear, loss of rationality] [Activation item: Noelle's knot, all negative statuses are removed]
The system's notification sounds continued to come, and Isidor's heart was also in turmoil. With so many negative states imposed on him at once, if the knot could not be untied, he would probably become a cripple on the spot, and he might not even be able to defeat a three-year-old child. "Haha, with more than a dozen negative states on your body, you can't even walk now, right? No, even if I say this, you probably can't hear it. This is the difference in our power, feel it!" the man said proudly. "What a pity! Your thing is of no use to me." Isidor laughed. "What?!" The man was shocked to see that his curse was ineffective.
