Chapter 61 Popularization
=====================
Luke opened his mouth but said nothing.
Lillian laughed so hard that her body shook. "Seeing you suddenly speechless, I feel quite accomplished."
This sentence resonated with everyone. Usually it was Luke who spoke, and they were speechless.
Luke walked into the house with his hands and feet slightly trembling.
"Thank...thank you everyone..."
He was thinking about what to say when the voice of the quill came from the side: "Gift."
Luke subconsciously repeated the words of the quill: "Gift..."
When I realized what I said, the entire tip of my ear was burning.
As expected, it caused laughter in the whole room.
Lillian was the first to come over: "Here."
She handed over a few bottles of potions.
There were two kinds of medicine in it. The first one was the soul replenishing liquid that Quill Pen asked to be refined a few days ago. Lillian focused on another small blue porcelain bottle: "Night Love Charm!"
As soon as the words came out, the expressions of those present were a little strange, especially Quill, whose expression was particularly unnatural.
Lujia was about to open it out of curiosity, but Lillian stopped him and started to introduce it seriously:
"Generally, the pleasure of sexual intercourse comes mostly from sex. The One-Night Love Charm can allow the user's soul to slightly leave the body, penetrate into the other person's spiritual sea, and experience unprecedented extreme pleasure. It is the top medicine for the succubus clan."
Luke almost slipped when he heard that.
Lillian said nervously, "Don't fall. This medicine is very expensive."
The biggest advantage of Night Love Charm is that it can also broaden the soul and consciousness, allowing the scope of spiritual awareness to grow. It is consistently ranked among the top three in the annual selection of the top ten most valuable potions.
"Take it first, and we'll talk about it after a thousand or so years." Leo said in a deep voice.
Grover and his men were still in the Demon Realm doing infrastructure construction, and only he and Berlani came from the Dragon Clan. Leo changed the subject directly: "First, take a look at our birthday gift for you."
With the Dragon Clan's strong financial resources, the gift being called a clan gift must be of unimaginable value.
Luke made a decision secretly that he could not accept words that were too precious, even if they might hurt the other person's feelings a little.
The items are stored in a special fabric bag.
The saint and the quill seemed to know what was inside the fabric bag through them, and each had his own thoughts.
Luka stepped forward and opened it, and instantly a dazzling array of light was reflected.
Scales of different colors are strung together to form a shape similar to a small vest, which ripples like water as the eyes wander.
Karen has appraised countless treasures and was amazed repeatedly. This gift is beyond description in terms of its value.
Leo glanced at Berlani next to him: "We have looked up human customs. In some regions, the custom of raising children is to ask relatives and friends for scraps of cloth, cut and piece them together to make a 'patchwork quilt'."
It means to gather the blessings of hundreds of families, be free from misfortunes and disasters, and grow up safely.
The beauty of this gift is that it is priceless, and Luke cannot refuse it.
Scales of different colors indicate they come from different dragons. For a giant dragon, taking a scale is no big deal. Dragon scales are extremely tough. Wearing them can protect you from miasma pollution and make you immune to all kinds of attacks.
More importantly, it contains a wonderful blessing.
Luka took a deep breath and put it on to try it out under the dragon's expectant gaze. To his surprise, it was not heavy at all, but rather as light as a cicada's wing and very warm.
On the back of each dragon scale, there is a magical inscription carved by the dragon's claws.
At the same time, Leo and Blaney nodded slightly in satisfaction.
The colorful patchwork clothes do not look out of place on Lujia and fully support his temperament.
Especially the base shirt happens to be a white shirt, which goes very well with the vest style, giving a sense of the coolness of a noble young master.
“And this.”
Blaney put down the photo stone.
It contained blessing videos from areas such as Klin Watchtower, mainly to let him see that the local construction is progressing steadily.
The houses and streets have been given a new look.
Luke: “So fast!”
The construction progress of the entire area was much faster than he had imagined.
Displaying the blessing video and the infrastructure together is of great significance to Luke.
grumble!
The snow ferret jumped out at this time: There is also mine, look at me.
Its gift is a little ferret made from the fluff it collects daily. The ferret's fur also has healing properties. It reminds Luke that if he gets hurt, he can just swallow the 'little ferret' in one gulp.
Luke’s emotion was suppressed for a second.
This is a bit scary.
The next second, the Snow Ferret took out another box and indicated that it was given by the saint and he would open it after returning.
Luke looked at the saint, who nodded slightly.
Karen was thinking of giving out the gift at this time, but the Elf King's voice came from the terminal first: "You know, I don't like vulgar things like gold and silver."
"You are one of the few people who resonates with me musically, so I composed a piece of music just for you."
The dividends from the previous cooperation project were increased by 10%. Karen, who was extremely vulgar, said: "..."
Poverty is not a virtue.
No matter what money does wrong, don't discriminate against it, okay?
Someone cast a levitation spell, and the largest cake was smoothly placed on the table.
The birthday celebration custom in the Holy Demon Continent is to eat cakes, which come in different styles, usually in the shape of animals or sculptures.
Luke’s birthday cake was a magpie holding a plum blossom, with a few doves huddled on the ground, almost frozen to death, and the graves of the magpie’s parents next to it.
There are too many elements, and Luke guessed that the idea of this "aesthetic" probably came from the feather pen.
He was right. Almost at the same time, the feather pen inserted the candle into the dove's body, perfectly avoiding the shape of the magpie.
Cake, music, and gifts carrying blessings, a birthday celebration full of ritual sense officially begins.
"Blow out the candles," said the quill.
Luke, who was about to kill the whole family, closed his eyes and blew out all the candles at once.
The snow outside the window continued until nightfall.
Today is the end of the Celebration Day holiday, and after dark, there were continuous fireworks outside.
We climbed to the top of the observatory to enjoy the night view, which was magnificent in the distance.
Luke was looking up when suddenly a mechanical heart-shaped ornament about the size of a thumb appeared in front of him.
Quill: "A keepsake. It has a special magic cast on it. Wearing it can also increase your agility."
Quill is very good at mechanical creation. When you put this mechanical heart next to your ear, you can hear a simulated heartbeat.
However, its appearance is not beautiful, it is somewhat deformed and red to black.
Lujia recalled the first time they met in the Land of Exile. The other party appeared in the form of a terrifying heart, and he was frightened at the time.
It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a souvenir.
He smiled and said, "I never said that before. Nice to meet you."
The fireworks were popping loudly. Luka spoke quietly, but the quill easily read his lips. Under the dazzling light of the fireworks, he whispered, "Me too."
————
After the birthday party, Leo and Blaney returned to the Demon Realm. The territories divided by the Demon King are not only barren but also far apart, and the development process cannot be separated from the presence of strong people.
After Luka confirmed that the Gulu Rock Milk was fine, he prepared to take it together with the supplement liquid given by Lillian.
Quill: "Maybe he'll be in a coma for a few days."
Luke nodded, indicating that he understood what was going on.
His soul had become much more solid, so he wasn't in such a mess this time.
As he swallowed the two potions, the scene in front of him began to become increasingly illusory. The feather pen that was so close to him, as well as the tables and chairs in the room, all began to seem as if they were thousands of miles away.
As my consciousness became groggy, the dark room filled with bookshelves in my memory appeared again.
Unlike the first time I took the supplement, the picture I saw this time was intermittent and mottled. The bookshelves around me were all strange and the child's figure was flickering. The whole thing was like an old movie lens that was about to collapse.
"…Isn't your body resistant to the drugs?"
There is no way to have an immersive experience at all.
The child in front was talking to the phantom, but Luke couldn't hear clearly what they were saying.
Substituting what the saint had said, he guessed that they were discussing the details of the transaction. It was probably after this incident that the child tricked the bully into becoming a sacrifice to Alex.
Luka tried very hard to get closer, but unfortunately, just like magnets of the same class repelling each other, he was repeatedly knocked away by resistance.
Even so, he still squeezed forward desperately and finally could hear a little bit clearly.
——"I want to learn magic."
The child spoke clearly and firmly: "In this world, there must be a way to practice without elemental perception."
Only by becoming stronger can you change your destiny.
The phantom showed no emotion, but just asked mechanically: "What can you offer in exchange?"
No matter how many souls and blood are sacrificed, they are not enough to exchange for precious cultivation methods.
Unexpectedly, the child suddenly bent down and took out several thick books from under the bed with great effort.
"The book says that all races are looking for the door to the plane."
The door of the plane can lead to different spaces, even to different worlds. The orcs were able to rise quickly because they once discovered a door of the plane.
To put it bluntly, it is about making money from land reclamation and conquest.
The disadvantage is that the soul is very likely to collapse in the process. In the only expedition of the orcs, only a few hundred warriors returned.
"You seem to know a lot. You are so powerful, you should also know the location of the plane gate." The child complimented him and then said, "Find a way to send me in. I will try to bring you something that is not here from other places."
Herbs, magical plants, ancient books from another world... there must be something the other party needs.
The phantom then opened his eyes and looked at him.
Probably surprised by this bizarre idea. A useless piece of trash without any magic power would be killed in vain if thrown into the plane.
Because Luke repeatedly approached and was driven away, the sound reception on the scene was extremely poor, so the child's voice became more decisive and slightly higher.
"I have a good tolerance for space." The child stated his advantages.
On the rare occasions when he experienced the teleportation array at banquets, the crown princes of his age who were much more powerful than him would vomit all over the place, but he was just dizzy.
The child doesn't care what kind of world he will be thrown into. It is better to die than to sit and wait for death.
He had had enough of this hellish place where people were eaten without leaving any bones.
Even if I die, I would rather die in a new atmosphere.
Luke stared quietly at the child's determined and pale face, and everything in his field of vision became increasingly blurry.
The already dim environment suddenly became darker at this moment, and his five senses as a bystander began to be further weakened.
Finally, after a long silence, the phantom responded.
The child didn't move at all, but low chanting of spells began to float in the house, and the whole scene was very strange.
After a series of extremely complex spells were recited accurately, a translucent, illusory mirror suddenly appeared in front of him.
The mirror reflects the child's face and black hair in the dim room, confusing success and darkness.
He was curiously looking at the mirror that suddenly appeared, when suddenly he shuddered all over and curled up to the ground.
Luke didn't know what was happening, but as the child's blue knuckles were about to sink into the cold concrete, he could imagine the heart-wrenching pain he was experiencing.
The child didn't dare to scream, for fear of attracting the evil guards and biting his tongue off, so he could only choose something nearby and bite the diary tightly.
There is a row of clearly visible teeth marks along the spine of the bound book.
A hint of murderous intent leaked out from the manuscript paper.
Almost at the same time, with a creaking sound, the canine tooth of the child, who was at the age of replacing teeth, broke off and sank completely into the depression of the notebook.
The child suddenly saw himself with missing teeth in the mirror, and he felt both pain and anger.
Damn, he loves beauty the most!
This scene seemed to please the phantom.
Perhaps he had never seen such an interesting and fun little thing, so he didn't kill it in the end.
The pain was finally relieved, and when the child was about to get up, an even more horrifying scene occurred.
Not to mention him, even Luke who was watching widened his eyes.
In the mirror, another almost identical "child" slowly walked out, but this one had no entity, like a puff of mist.
The shadow floated in place and said calmly: "Soul division technique. I will make another puppet body for you."
I was probably too lazy to say more about the rest, so I waved my sleeves and the magic elements automatically arranged into words in the air:
[From now on, your soul will be divided into two parts, half of which will go to the gate of the plane]
[The small part that remains will continue your status as the abolished crown prince and continue to look for sacrifices for me in the Demon Realm]
If too much soul is missing, no matter how strong the space's bearing capacity is, it will be shattered.
In Xuying's opinion, it is reasonable for a child who is almost ten years old to work two jobs.
For your whole family.
Luke couldn't help but curse.
Unfortunately, the muscles at the corners of his mouth could not be moved, and in the end he could only move his lips weakly.
Everything around him became more and more blurry. When the feeling of detachment reached its peak, Luke almost left in a ferocious manner. '
"Luke."
"Luke, wake up."
A familiar voice was calling his name, sometimes close and sometimes far away.
Luke struggled to open his eyelids, and saw a magnified face so close to him that the tips of their noses were almost touching.
Luke's pupils suddenly dilated!
But he soon found out that he was the 'culprit', pulling the other person's hair on both sides with his hands.
He quickly let go of her hand and sat up from the bed despite the dizziness.
It was a strange feeling, my body felt very relaxed, even without having to concentrate, I could sense all sorts of different magical elements in the air, but my head was aching.
The benefits of Gulu Rock Milk and the side effects of the supplement fluid are working at the same time.
Quill saw him wake up, confirmed that he was fine, and became relaxed: "Your soul is almost completely solidified. If you rest for a while, your strength will be greatly improved."
Luke did not check his magic power immediately, but looked at the quill.
The memory was slowly recovering and integrating, and surprisingly, it did not bring him much shock.
Various traces from the past had long indicated that he and his original body had a close relationship, and might even be the same person.
But the initial sense of complexity has gradually dissipated a lot.
He now has a deeper connection with the world, and the friends and elders around him prove that every step he has taken on the road here is meaningful.
Turning his head, Lujia compared carefully and said, "You are very different from what I remember."
It was an extremely cunning, greedy and arrogant soul.
The possibility of a child surviving in another world was extremely low, but the other party still arranged all this with great fanfare.
Luke began to slowly narrate everything he saw in his dream. When he heard about the split soul, Quill visibly frowned.
The doors and windows were closed during the day, and the faint light that came in shone on half of Luke's shoulder. Even when he was talking about his suffering, he was still the shining one.
Quill listened quietly.
He remained silent for a long time until Luke finished speaking, then asked:
"…Are you doing well in the other world?"
When making the suona, Luca mentioned that there were people who coveted his beauty and tried to make a dirty deal with him. Now that everything has come to light, he is probably not living a happy life there.
Thinking of this, Quill's expression turned sinister, and for the second time he felt that the revenge Luke talked about was too mild.
"not bad."
Unexpectedly, Luke was very excited when he mentioned the modern times, but soon his face turned black and he said, "Except that after I had a car and a house and paid off the mortgage, I was struck to death by lightning."
Quill felt a little guilty.
But he quickly added: "In the other world, your body will age faster. As you age, the will of the world master in other planes will reject you more and more. It is only a matter of time before you are struck to death."
This is also the only way to let the soul return.
He thought Luke would feel comforted, but his face turned even darker.
“…”
What a great automatic gear shift.
Luka hesitated for a moment, "But I didn't bring back any treasures from the other world, and your memory chose to give me the faith practice method."
Quill asked back, "Really?"
Lujia thought about it seriously, the first time the memory appeared, it was relying on the essence and blood he bought.
And at that time, he and Quill had already established preliminary cooperation.
Luke didn't know what to say for a moment, and then he murmured: "...It's amazing."
Quill Pen has never believed in these metaphysical theories, but he has to admit that fate has formed a wonderful closed loop between them.
After being in a coma for a few days, Luke regained consciousness and belatedly prepared to open the box given by the saint.
As he moved, he asked, "By the way, has the reputation of the Holy See changed?"
He was quite curious about what arrangements the Saint Mother would make after being rejected by him that day.
Quill had a strange expression on her face.
Just when Luke thought something strange was going on, he slowly said, "I heard that the Saint has been in seclusion since she returned, and the affairs of the Holy Court are now in the hands of another priest. That priest has strictly ordered internal personnel and all those with interests in the Holy Court to boycott the terminal."
Lujia paused, then raised his head in disbelief: "If they are all banned, then there will be no one to speak for them online, right?"
Quill nodded.
Luke: “…” What kind of genius train of thought is this?
When the boycott is proposed by a large force, countless affiliated forces will respond positively.
If nothing unexpected happens, this will be the best way to hinder the flow of goods.
But it definitely doesn't work on the web.
"People need to live down to earth." Luka took a breath, still unable to figure out how this smart guy came up with the idea of starting the boycott with his own people.
'Logical weird' is really scary.
Feather Pen doesn’t quite understand the word “down-to-earth” and assumes it means having your feet on the ground.
“You’re very down to earth.”
Luke almost laughed out loud when he heard his serious praise.
The conversation distracted him and he opened the box directly. The palm-sized object was obviously cast under a shrinking spell.
A sword blank with a dark purple color appeared.
"It's so hot!" The sword blank is hot.
From the moment the sword embryo appeared, the Sage's Sword began to become restless.
The next second, it picked up the sword embryo and began to gnaw on it, filling the bed with sword residue.
Luke was only shocked for a few seconds, but he quickly reacted.
You are what you eat. The saint would not give him the sword embryo for no reason. It must be used to supplement the sword.
The Sword of the Sage has endured countless years and the destruction of the Holy Court, and it has long lost the splendor it had when the Ancestor of Man was alive.
The Sage's Sword, which was degenerating in every aspect, still made the Holy See feel uneasy. Luke estimated that it was because of its special properties.
"The nemesis of the tree of life?"
One has fire attribute, one has water attribute... no, one happens to have ice attribute.
While the Sage Sword was feasting, Luke also got up and had a simple meal.
"By the way, did you sign a magic contract with the saint?"
The saint never asked him about Alex, but it was obviously much more convenient to buy monster blood with the feather pen than before.
Everyone has a good relationship, but a saint will not gamble the fate of the entire ethnic group because of personal likes and dislikes.
"We just made some insignificant agreements. Don't worry about it."
The pretended cold tone made Lujia a little suspicious.
"real?"
Quill sneered: "Do you think I will suffer any loss?"
Lujia thought about it and decided to believe him. The other party was indeed not a kind person who would suffer a loss in silence.
Seeing that he didn't ask any more questions, Quill calmly let go.
There are only three rules between them and the saints: first, they must not take the initiative to attack humans outside the Holy See; second, if humans encounter a disaster, they will help if they can for the sake of Luke's friends among the humans; and finally, they must never attempt to colonize and enslave humans.
Except for the last one, there are basically no mandatory restrictions in the three agreements, and the conditions are very broad.
What really upset him was.
The saint gave him a badge of human guardian.
"I'm just lending you the card. You don't need to care about the words on it."
"Until the High Priest sees the card and reports, no one is allowed to use force, and they can freely enter and exit some forbidden areas. With this card, all human consumption can be discounted by 30%, and they don't have to abide by any purchase restrictions."
"Even if you don't use it, Luka can still use it."
The last sentence is the final blow.
On the surface, it seemed that he had taken advantage of everything, and of course in reality he had also taken advantage of everything.
but……
The corner of the feather pen's mouth twitched. If Luke saw the words on it, he would definitely laugh so hard that he couldn't get up.
No.
Feather Pen looked at Luke who was eating the bun with big mouthfuls, and thought expressionlessly: He was laughing so hard that he was flying.
Absolutely, absolutely not let him know.
After eating and drinking, Luke regained his strength.
I was about to take out my terminal to check the time, but unexpectedly I found several unread messages, all from Karen.
[Karen of Rhine Trading Company: The large terminal has arrived and the store location has been decided. Would you like to come and take a look? 】
Luke's spirits suddenly brightened.
Seeing the smile in his eyes, he was obviously in a good mood. Quill: "Is your mother dead?"
“…”
Compared to the Demon King, the Quill Pen is obviously more hostile to the Saint who likes to make a fuss about emotions. Lujia chose to understand, and then got back to the point: "The Internet cafe is about to open."
The era of universal Internet access that he has been longing for is finally coming!
