“Are you looking for me?” A calm voice came from the corner, attracting the attention of everyone present.
Chiba Lan also followed the voice and found that this was his good brother Chiba Wu, whom he had been searching for a long time. He looked dirty and his body was covered with mud and dust. This appearance was simply an insult to the crown prince’s identity.
Chiba Lan looked at him unhappily with contempt and mockery in his tone: “Your Highness, the noble Crown Prince, why aren’t you hiding?”
Chiba Wu raised his head and looked back as if looking up at a mountain. He did not bother the sarcasm of the other party’s words and calmly said, “Brother 666, do you want to be the Crown Prince?”
Chiba Lan: “Why? Do you want to give the position to me directly? Still smart.”
Chiba Wu shook his head: “Even if I want to , I can’t.”
Chiba Lan’s tone rose dangerously: “What do you mean?”
The crown prince stretched out his thin arm and waved it in the air. It was not windy at the top of Wang Shu. However, everyone felt like they were being blown by a breeze, and it made a “rustling” sound at the same time.
Chiba Lan’s eyes narrowed slightly, it was as if there was a secret he didn’t know about the identity of the crown prince.
Chiba Wu said: “This is Wang Shu’s recognition of me. Even if you kill me right now, you cannot directly obtain Wang Shu’s recognition”
Chiba Lan waved his hand and signaled his soldiers to surround Chiba Wu before leisurely saying: “Then tell me, if you satisfy me, I can let them go.”
He pointed his finger at Ina and his other subordinates who had been tied up.
Seeing Chiba Wu stand up, Ina couldn’t help but worry. She shook her head at Chiba Wu and signaled him not to agree to such a dangerous deal.
The crown prince glanced at Ina, he did not speak and turned to look at Chiba Lan: “This starts with Wang Shu’s secret…”
Seeing that Chiba Wu had temporarily stabilized the situation, Xiao Zhi no longer paid attention to this side. He quickly turned around and headed in the direction Chiba Wu had pointed out before.
·
Since Chiba Lan concentrated most of his forces on this side of the square in front of the palace, there were only a few patrolling soldiers inside the palace. Xiao Zhi easily bypassed their line of sight and sneaked in.
Xiao Zhi marched through the complex corridors of the palace and finally approached the room mentioned by the crown prince.
There was no sign of people around and it seemed that there was no one guarding here but Xiao Zhi’s footsteps stopped.
His instinct told him that something was wrong here.
There seemed to be something dangerous in the air, which made him inexplicably feel a needle-thorn-like crisis, as if something was hanging in the air waiting for him to fall into the trap.
Perhaps it was because Xiao Zhi stopped for too long, something that was dormant in the dark felt impatient, a rustling voice rang above his head.
Xiao Zhi took a big step back then raised his head and looked up.
On the ceiling not far above his head, a black lacquer filament entangled and occupies a large area. He could clearly see that these hair-like filaments were constantly squirming in his direction.
A round head-shaped object slowly formed from the black filaments, followed by a neck, shoulders, thin arms and a waterfall of long black hair. But this long hair is not an ordinary hair texture but a kind of black vine.
The figure was hanging upside down on the ceiling with his back facing Xiao Zhi looking weird and gloomy, just like a female ghost.
Xiao Zhi lifted the staff and prepared with concentration, a fireball was about to be shot.
The head of the “female ghost” suddenly turned around and then turned all the way to the back, directly meeting Xiao Zhi’s line of sight.
Xiao Zhi’s hand shook and the fireball went out.
It wasn’t that the “female ghost” attacked him, but the face that turned around looked like a member of the old wood spirit tribe, with pleats all over his face and his complexion was as dark as a hardworking farmer.
Xiao Zhi: “…”
He was slightly disappointed… The old man was looking forward to Xiao Zhi’s startled expression but saw a disappointed look on Xiao Zhi’s face.
Old man: “???”
Why are you so disappointed?!
The debut shock plan failed but the uncle was not discouraged. He raised his hand and waved, his slender vines on the ceiling pounced towards Xiao Zhi.
This time Xiao Zhi’s hand stopped shaking and a fireball was smoothly thrown over.
The raging flames faced the slender vines and the fireball swallowed all the vines in an instant.
Originally plants were afraid of fire. This has not changed in the world of ZERO. Even if Xiao Zhi’s level is still very low, the damage bonus of fire to plants remains unchanged.
The burning fire made Xiao Zhi happy. He couldn’t help but curl up his mouth.
The old man whose vines were burnt seemed to be irritated. The movements in his hands kept moving and more vines squeezed out of the gaps in the walls. The vines occupied the entire corridor forming an encirclement.
After a while, countless vines attacked Xiao Zhi from all directions, in a posture to stab him into a sieve.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Zhi raised his hand, this time it was a casting action completely different from fireball.
When action ended, there was no flame on the staff and it looked calm, as if the spell had failed to release.
But the vines rushing towards Xiao Zhi stopped at the same time.
Then, from the wall on which they were attached, a few dots of firelight ignited. The color of the firelight was much deeper than that of the fireball. However, it was not inferior to the power of fireball.
Under the cover of dense black vines, a piece of flame thorns came in response to Xiao Zhi’s call.The burning thorns entangled the dense black vines in the corridor. The black vines were burned continuously, burning them dry and brittle, and fell down one after another.
Even the wood spirits on the ceiling were not let off by the flames.
The flame thorns wrapped around him and the fiery flames ignited the black vines on his head like hair, quickly turning him from the black long straight old man to a bald old man.
Old man: “…”
Qi ge had given him a haircut but he couldn’t complain.
The old man from the wooden spirit tribe lost all the vines and fell directly from the ceiling. Only then did Xiao Zhi see that this was a thin old man.
In line with the principle of sending warmth to the end, Xiao Zhi raised his staff again, preparing to send him another fireball.
The old man looked around and found that he was surrounded by flames and thorns. The young man in front of him who was watching him was raising his staff with a smile on his face.
The scene seemed to be death saying to him, “Guest officer is here to play ~.”
With a bitter heart, he rushed towards Xiao Zhi. Then he bent his knees and slid all the way to the feet of Xiao Zhi without hesitation.
“…” The fireball in Xiao Zhi’s hand went out.
Then, the old man stretched out his hand and hugged Xiao Zhi’s calf and said in an affectionate tone, like when the villagers saw the inspection leader: “My lord! It is my honor to be able to serve you!”
In order to prevent Xiao Zhi from not believing, he added another sentence: “I have long felt that Chiba Lan is not good for Chiba Country. Fortunately, you saved me from the abyss!”
With this skill, you are really a talent… …The old man was still performing hard and the tone of his eyes was all in place: “My lord, please accept my allegiance!”
Xiao Zhi was very moved and hit him in the head.
Now that time is urgent, he doesn’t have time to tell whether this guy is really confessing or wanting to play a new routine with him, so let’s put it down first.
Dragging the unconscious old man, Xiao Zhi entered Chiba Wu’s room and found a cabinet.
Xiao Zhi scanned the room and found Chiba Wu’s bed according to his instructions. He opened the bed sheet and tried to search for the dark room switch under the bed.
Unexpectedly, what appeared in front of Xiao Zhi was a tightly packed bed. He didn’t know how many things were piled up under the bed. Everything was a mess.
Xiao Zhi casually pulled out something
It looked like a book: “Underwater Portraits of Hundred Male Gods of the Xiyue Clan.
“……?” The cover and the font all reveal a smell of indecency.
He pulled a few more books, “The Passion of the Orc Blacksmith”, “The Private Life of Bishop Brace”, “Shock! Lord Hessian did such a thing! “…
The treasure of a 600-year-old god is terrifying.
Xiao Zhi: “…”
He is still a little bit curious… No no no no no, now is not the time to be curious.
Xiao Zhi pushed aside the pile of unsuitable juveniles and finally saw the entrance to the basement.
Entering the basement, it is just a small room, there is nothing but a white flower in the middle covered by a transparent cover.
The flowers exude a gleaming shimmer, and the petals are layered on top of each other, looking at the beauties resting peacefully and quietly like the moon.
It seems that this is what Chiba Wu said, a white flower that can be sent to King Chiba.
Xiao Zhi cautiously opened the cover of the white flower and tore off a petal according to what the crown prince said.
The system prompt appeared: “You have completed the task of “Summoning the King of Chiba.” A lot of experience came with him, which raised Xiao Zhi’s level to 85.
Before Xiao Zhi could relax, the originally quiet flower suddenly let out a heart-piercing cry.
“Ah——————————————————”
That voice was rough and bold. The voice was huge, as if ten thousand groundhogs were howling at Xiao Zhi at close range, snarling his mind.
Could it be that the so-called transmission to King Chiba was done by roaring?
No, according to Chiba Wu’s statement, King Chiba should be in the area bordering Chiba Kingdom and Changyue Desert at this moment. No matter how loud the voice of this flower is, it is impossible for the voice to reach there.
Although the door of the secret room has been closed, the cry shouldn’t attract Chiba Lan’s attention, but how can he open the door and leave if this flower is crying?
Xiao Zhi stretched out his hand and gently stroked the branch of the white flower, trying to calm it down.
“Ah——”
“Ah——”
“Ah————”
This flower became more vigorous, just like meeting a stinky rascal.
Xiao Zhi: “…”
He is not, he is not, don’t talk nonsense.
In desperation, Xiao Zhi could only close his hand. When he was at a loss what to do, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the transparent cover next to him. At this moment, he understood with good fortune what the cover was for.
Xiao Zhi picked up the hood at the fastest speed in his life and put it neatly on top of the flower’s head. The world instantly quieted down, losing the harsh background sound. The flower was again gentle and peaceful like a beauty under the moon.
Only Xiao Zhi knew that everything was a scam.
Chiba Lan also followed the voice and found that this was his good brother Chiba Wu, whom he had been searching for a long time. He looked dirty and his body was covered with mud and dust. This appearance was simply an insult to the crown prince’s identity.
Chiba Lan looked at him unhappily with contempt and mockery in his tone: “Your Highness, the noble Crown Prince, why aren’t you hiding?”
