Chapter 372 The Monarch of Language

Before leaving the auction house, Yu Xunge bought two more magician's dentures. If the dentures and the magic eye couldn't be forcibly fused, she would try to see if similar items could be refurbished and synthesized into better items.

Yu Xunge took out a false tooth and placed it together with the Demon Eye, trying to simulate in his mind how to assemble it.

Tu Lan flew over to help her look, but no matter how she looked at it, she couldn't see any way the two things could be combined.

Yu Xunge pondered for a moment, then took out the "Big World, Small Me" and shrunk the magic eye to the size of a grain of rice, fitting it perfectly into the socket of his denture.

She then opened the refurbishment, attempting to forcibly merge the two items.

She ignored the intermingling of the dentures and the light from the demonic eye, and instead took out two dentures she had just bought from the auction house and began to refurbish them as well.

This renovation was incredibly time-consuming; it took almost half an hour to get the results.

[The Magician's Wisdom Tooth] (Grade A)

A magical combination, with the scent of Captain Pittley, but also the aroma of Magician's Mint.

【Skill 1】Space: Contains 1 cubic meter of space, which requires the space of one of your tooth sockets. It can hide all the things you don’t want others to know (the equipment or items placed inside cannot be detected by any skill or item, but also cannot be used). This space is flexible, but once it exceeds the original space volume, your wisdom tooth will feel a dull pain. The maximum volume cannot exceed 50% of the original space volume.

[Skill 2] Recall: Use your wisdom teeth to bite the target's most recently used item, and you can "see" the target's experiences in the last 6 hours when using the item. Each use consumes 20% of your mana and has a 24-hour cooldown.

[Skill 3] Mind Reading: By biting the other person's head, you can read their thoughts. It consumes 10 mana points per second when used.

It's still A-rank, but it was already a bit of a stretch for the Magic Eyes to be rated A-rank in the first place. Now, with the addition of the dentures' spatial abilities, it's finally normal.

The wisdom tooth was made of silver metal, not cyberpunk at all, but rather looked like the dentures that old ladies used in the last century... She used [Colorful] to change the dentures to porcelain white, which made them look better.

It does indeed combine the skills of dentures and magic eyes, but its usage is not as convenient as magic eyes, especially the [mind reading] skill, which obviously cannot be used silently from the shadows.

As for the other two dentures, the synthesis failed.

The two "magician's dentures" turned into "magician's cavities".

Yu Xunge compared the position of her wisdom tooth with the position of her previous dentures, and it didn't quite match. So she simply pried up a wisdom tooth that she hadn't had extracted before and installed the "Magician's Wisdom Tooth". Then she had Tu Lan use an "Expert Appointment" on her, and the minor surgery was done just like that.

Afterwards, Yu Xunge made another trip to Hufflepuff's alchemy shop, returning the alchemy notes and giving Hufflepuff five bottles of "King of the Little Fish Kingdom" as a gift.

Although she didn't make a qualitative leap in alchemy like she did in cooking while inside the tower, her repeated understanding and practice of the two high-level potions, "Springtime Never Ends" and "Gold Medal Killer," was enough to benefit her immensely.

The key steps of "King of the Little Fish Kingdom" and "Spring Never Fades" are similar in that they both involve breaking free from shackles. However, one involves blood ties and the other involves genes. After several attempts, she successfully created the product, but unfortunately, the other three ingredients were still stuck halfway through.

Hedgehog carefully put away the [King of the Little Fish Kingdom], glanced at Yu Xunge, and asked, "Are you really that comfortable cooperating with the Mist Blade Moon Emperor?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Xunge realized there was a deeper meaning in those words. She immediately ran to Hechpa's side and asked, "Does Teacher have some insights to share with me?"

“Mistblade is upright and proud but not arrogant. She would never kill someone behind their back. Since she gave you a chance to forgive you for stealing the World Tomb, you'd better not betray her again during your dealings with her.”

"She won't tolerate betrayal. Even if you make up for it a hundredfold afterward, she will never forgive you. At that point, even Rukia won't be able to protect you."

After speaking, Hufflepuff paused, somewhat hesitant, but she continued:

"I want to remind you to be wary of the Monarch of Language. He hates sweet talk the most, but he is also most skilled at using words to bewitch living beings. He is an expert in linguistics and also enjoys studying the languages ​​of various civilizations."

"I can tell you with certainty that, given his talent for languages, he has definitely learned the mainstream language of your world."

Yu Xunge was shocked and said, "Even if there are nearly ten kinds?"

Hedgehog replied, "Even if there are nearly ten."

Hufflepuff refused to say anything more. The poor necromancer had betrayed the ancestral spirits once again. She took the cauldron upstairs to repent, but before repenting, she went to the wine cabinet on the first floor and picked out two bottles of wine. Yu Xunge had no choice but to spend money to find Little Machi.

Little Machi is fairly well-informed, but she knows very little about the level of the Undead Lord.

"The four undead monarchs rarely get involved in affairs; they all delegate the management of the main city to the city lord."

"The Lord of Language and the Lord of Muteness are a brother and sister who jointly govern the City of Echoes. However, since the Lord of Dark City met with misfortune, the two lords have been worried that the Lord of Echoes City will suffer the same fate. Therefore, the Lord of Muteness is now personally managing the City of Echoes."

"The Lord of Kufu has not changed his city lord, but the city lord of Youku City no longer allows any undead to enter the palace."

"When the Lord of Dark City got into trouble, the one who reacted the least was Bone Shadow Monarch. He just replaced the Lord of Dark City and borrowed a deputy Lord from the Lord of Withered City, and then he went out again... Well, that's how it seems on the surface. I can't get any more information."

That's all I know.

Yu Xunge gave Xiao Maqi 100 gold coins as a tip and also gave her a bottle of [King of Little Fish Kingdom] to drink for fun.

As she turned to leave, she remembered the question that had been bothering her. Without much hope, she turned back and asked Little Machi, "Do you know where all those monsters outside Zelan City come from?"

Little Machi understood what she meant: "Oh, you mean those monsters? Those are refugees who were homeless after the original world was destroyed."

A homeless monster...

After leaving the alchemy shop and walking quite a distance, Yu Xunge spoke again, asking Tu Lan, "How much do you know about these four monarchs?"

After a moment's thought, Tulan replied:

"The Lord of Language, he was the one who represented the 12 Holy Clans in negotiations with Dragon Island and Snowdrift..."

"After he left, Xue Dui told me to run away whenever I saw Yu Lu and not to talk to him too much. Xue Dui said that Yu Lu Monarch's divine talent is related to language, and sometimes we fall for it without realizing it. Even if we are good at perceiving emotions, we can easily be deceived."

Tulan said in a strange tone, "He almost used sweet talk to lure a dragon that wasn't very familiar with our family into being his pet. If Holy Grail, Wind Cutter, and Emperor Umbrella hadn't chased after it at the same time, knocked it unconscious, and snatched it back, the dragon would have really gone with Yu Lü."

“…” Yu Xunge cleared her throat, “Is that dragon that your family isn’t very familiar with called Bei Sui?”

Tu Lan looked up at the sky and said, "Everyone says they're not familiar with our family anymore."

Yu Xunge nodded, indicating that he understood: "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone... What about you? Didn't he try to kidnap you? You're the youngest dragon, so it would be easier to kidnap you, right?"

Tu Lan recalled Yu Lu's gentle and tender demeanor, and frowned as she said, "He probably tried. He said a lot of things to me, but I don't remember them very well. I didn't like him either."

"The Holy Grail warned me to be wary of beings that appear perfect. It said that the more perfect a being appears, the more you should listen to it from the opposite perspective. The Lord of Language is too perfect, so I dare not trust him."
