Shadow monk of online game

Chapter 82 Phoenix Nirvana
As soon as Lu Ping opened his eyes, he immediately found a person looking at him in front of him.

Wearing a crown on his head, this man is tall and majestic, with introverted eyes and a black beard that is about a foot long. He looks like a king, but the strange thing is that he is wearing a mage's robe and holds a sword in his right hand. It's not a scepter, but a strangely shaped black staff with a skull on it.

Lu Ping wanted to stand up, only to find that he was firmly fastened on a big chair by several steel rings, and all the equipment from his body was removed. He hurriedly summoned the package space with his thoughts, but there was no response, and the package was also taken away. .

"Who are you?" Lu Ping felt flustered for a while. This time, he really stumbled. After decades of hard work, he returned to the pre-liberation overnight and lost everything.

The man didn't speak, and kept staring at Lu Ping. Only then did Lu Ping realize that his eyes were very special. His eyes seemed to be full of sincerity, friendliness, frankness, and selflessness, but they also gave people a feeling of cunning, insidious, and vicious. People are unpredictable, people admire and fear.

Lu Ping and him only looked at each other for less than three seconds, and then turned their eyes to other places. This is a large room with huge oil paintings on the walls, beautifully patterned carpets on the floor, tables, chairs, cabinets and other furniture They are all inlaid with golden patterns, luxurious and imposing, and a magic ball is suspended directly above the room, emitting a soft light.

There is no name displayed on the top of this mysterious person's head, which is very abnormal. Regardless of whether Zhang San Li Si is a cat or a dog, all NPCs seen in other places have names.

"You stole my little phoenix!" the mysterious man said lightly.

"Phoenix?" Lu Ping was a little surprised. He had guessed it before, but he couldn't be sure, but now he had to pretend to be ignorant and innocent, "No, it's just a red chicken, not a phoenix, and I didn't steal it, it was it Follow me, there is an essential difference between active and passive!"

The mysterious man did not argue with him on this issue, but said to himself: "The phoenix is ​​a sacred and noble creature that lives forever. As fly ash, the remaining energy is gathered in an egg. After a certain period of time, a little phoenix will hatch out of this egg. At the beginning, they are similar to ordinary chicks, without any special place, but as they The growth of the body, the wisdom and power of the previous life will also be revived, and even the memories of several reincarnations ago will be revived, so they are immortal, just going through reincarnations one after another."

Lu Ping has also heard of such legends, but it seems that such legends belong to the oriental divine bird Phoenix, not magical online games, right?
The mysterious man said again: "Phoenixes are just reborn from Nirvana and never give birth, so their number does not increase or decrease. They are very rare, and they can only fall into the hands of humans when they become an egg."

Lu Ping's heart jumped wildly with "boom", so the phoenix is ​​even rarer and more valuable than the dragon, and it may be even stronger!
The mysterious man seemed to know what he was thinking, and said: "From the perspective of species, none of the existing dragons can be compared with the phoenix, unless it is the elemental dragon of ancient times."

Lu Ping asked: "Elemental Dragon?"

"In ancient times, the god of the universe created the dragon of order and the dragon of chaos. The dragon of order created our world and created the dragon of elements, while the dragon of chaos created devils, destroying order and balance... Inevitably, two primitive dragons fought a war, destroying almost all civilizations. In the end, the dragon of chaos was defeated and imprisoned in the fiery core of a certain planet. The dragon of order was also severely weakened in the war and hid in another Rest on a planet. Now the original dragon has become a myth, and even the elemental dragon has been forgotten, only the descendants of the elemental dragon are still multiplying on this planet."

Is this the history of civilization in this world?Lu Ping forgot that he was a prisoner for a while, and asked: "Then where did the phoenix come from, and why can it be compared with the elemental dragon?"

The mysterious man seemed very satisfied with his question, nodded and said: "The phoenix is ​​formed by some wandering energy when the two primitive dragons were born, so they have the power of order and chaos at the same time, but they don't have the power of the god of the universe. Inheritance, and their strength has been weakened in the reincarnation of hundreds of millions of years, so now their abilities are about the same as ordinary dragons."

In this way, the ability of the Phoenix is ​​not inferior to that of ordinary dragons, or even stronger.Lu Ping was both happy and worried. He was happy that Xiao Fenghuang had recognized him as his master, but he was worried that Xiao Fenghuang was not around at this time. He was probably taken away by force, and most likely he had no destiny with him.

"I see, the phoenix may obtain a lot of memories before reincarnation, and then you can know what happened in ancient times from it..."

The mysterious man smiled for the first time and nodded his head: "Yes, you are very smart. This is the only chance to dig out ancient history, but you ruined my plan."

There was not much anger or blame in his words, Lu Ping suddenly realized that this mysterious person probably didn't want to embarrass him, otherwise how would he have the time and mood to tell him a story?

"Why are you telling me this?"

The mysterious man narrowed his eyes slightly: "You have a scroll, and the pattern on it has the power of the age of the elemental dragon."

"Ah, you mean the fragments of the wisdom of the gods?"

The mysterious man laughed again: "The so-called gods are just the servants created by the earliest elemental dragons. This era has lasted for a long time, and it is impossible to verify how many years, but their strength has also weakened in the battle with the devil. In the end, it was completely silent. You can get such a fragment, which proves your ability and wisdom, so I let you still alive, another reason why you are still alive now, that is because of this ring!"

The mysterious man said that a ring suddenly appeared in his hand, a silver ring with a white spider on it.

If Lu Ping hadn't been tied to a chair, he would have jumped up, because what the mysterious man was holding was actually a silver spider gossamer!There was only one reason why the mysterious man recognized the ring and didn't kill him. Lu Ping exclaimed: "You, you...you are Ivan's master, the mastermind behind the scenes!"

The mysterious man remained unmoved, and said indifferently: "Now let's talk about the conditions. I will let you go and return everything to you, including the little Phoenix. You go back to Harmondale to steal or destroy the peace agreement, and then send the arbitration agreement to you." People killed."

Lu Ping swallowed with some difficulty: "Why do you have to create chaos?"

"This is not something you need to care about. You should know that I can give you what Butler Harmondale can give you, and I can give you what he can't! You are a smart person and should know how to choose."

"But I don't have the ability to kill the arbitrator. He is hiding in the House of Stars, and I can't get in at all."

"Those who are useless will only die... No, you will become a test subject or a mindless zombie to serve me and spend hundreds of years to repay your debt."

The expressionless tone made Lu Ping terrified. This is indeed worse than death, and now that all the equipment is in the hands of the mysterious man, even if he commits suicide and returns to the city, he can't solve the problem. How can he mess around without the equipment?
Lu Ping forcibly calmed down and said, "You don't need to scare me. The phoenix is ​​a high-level creature and can only recognize one master. If I become a puppet or a test product, the little phoenix will have no chance to grow up and will hate you. You will never have another chance." Research it. In fact, I need it as a mount, and you need to study its history. This is not a conflict. We can get what we need. As you said, the steward can give me far less than you. Why should I Allegiance to him and not to you? So if I can do it, I will definitely do it for you."

The mysterious man's eyes flickered, he didn't speak for a long time, he paced up and down the room, walked around, and finally said: "Well, your suggestion is good, you will raise the little phoenix, and you must raise it as soon as possible, most!"

Lu Ping was overjoyed, and immediately responded: "Yes, I promise to complete the task!"

The mysterious man nodded: "To put it simply, I have a grudge against the four lords of Harmondale, but now they are hiding in the abyss city of Diya and refuse to come out. I have nothing to do with them. So I want to make haha Mundell is in chaos, so they will go home and I will have a chance to do it. I believe you are not a person representing justice, so don't worry about the grievances between us, in short, you can get benefits from me. "

It seems that the reputation of evil is very high, so the mysterious man believed him, Lu Ping nodded: "I am willing to do things for you, but I really can't kill the arbitrator at the moment."

The mysterious man said: "Okay, then I won't force you, I will go back first, continue to gain their trust and favor, and wait for the opportunity. I know you are going to Pierpont City, there is nothing in this world that you can hide Hold me, and no one can escape from my palm. Even if you hide in the city of heaven or the city of abyss, I can pull you out at any time, so don't think about running away or rebelling, if your behavior Threat me, someone will kill you immediately!"

Lu Ping began to break out in a cold sweat. Even knowing that he was going to Pilbond City, it proved that there was also a mysterious man's eyeliner in Harmondale Castle. No matter what he did in the future, he would probably be under his surveillance. Not alarmist.

The mysterious man pressed the chair behind Lu Ping, and all the steel rings holding Lu Ping loosened, and then he clapped his palms, and immediately two guards in black armor came in and put all Lu Ping's things on the table one by one. Then two mages came in carrying a blue ball of light, and inside the ball of light was the fire bird that was so angry that his whole body was on fire——little phoenix!

"I will return everything that belongs to you now. If you need anything, I will do my best to satisfy you, because you are doing things for me now." The mysterious man said and handed the silver spider silk to you. Lu Ping pointed again, and the ball of light surrounding the fire bird disappeared, and the fire bird immediately ran towards Lu Ping with a long cry and flapped its wings.

It can't fly, it looks like a little hen, its name is Fire Bird, is it really Little Phoenix?
Lu Ping said: "If you are willing to give me that dragon egg, I will be very grateful!"

The mysterious man frowned, and showed an angry face for the first time: "This is too precious to you, let's talk about it after you make achievements."

Lu Ping didn't expect to get the dragon egg at first, but the mysterious person almost went berserk after getting the little phoenix, so how could he get the dragon egg again?However, asking for a lot of money and paying back the money on the spot is the most common negotiation strategy.

"Then give me some powerful scrolls, potions, and magic items, so that I can get twice the result with half the effort. Of course, this is just your initial investment in me, and there will be returns only if you invest, and I will definitely satisfy you in the future."

The mysterious man actually nodded, and then said to a black-armored guard: "Go and get three intermediate scrolls, three bottles of black potions, and three bottles of white potions for him."

The black-armored guard immediately turned around and went out. Lu Ping put the little phoenix into the riding pet space, and put away the equipment on the table one by one to check if anything was missing.

After a while, the black-armored guard came in and put the things on the table. Lu Ping looked at it and drool three feet long...

The three scrolls are flying thaumaturgy, anti-magic thaumaturgy, and resurrection from the dead; the three black potions are Eternal Strength, Eternal Constitution, and Eternal Agility; the three white potions are magical recovery potion, imperial water potion, and strength potion.

Needless to say, the three black potions are treasures that can permanently enhance attributes, and the effects of the three scrolls are also known by whoever uses them, and they are absolutely powerful!Even the three bottles of white potions are very precious. The magical recovery potion can immediately restore life and mana, and eliminate all bad conditions except death, petrification, and ashes; the water-repellent potion can increase the resistance of the water system by +50% for 45 minutes; the strength potion Can increase strength by 30 points for 17 minutes.

Lu Ping accepted it unceremoniously, and said with a smile, "Sir, what should I call you? Also, what should I do next?"

The mysterious man said: "You continue to do your work and gain their trust. When the time is right, I will inform you how to do it. As for my name, you don't need to know it yet."

Lu Ping couldn't ask any more questions, so he followed the mysterious man out and walked through a long corridor to a huge and weird room.There are many machinery, instruments and huge orbs in this room. The complicated pipelines are dazzling, and it looks a bit like the interior of a spaceship.

The mysterious man asked Lu Ping to stand on a platform, and he pressed a few buttons on an operating platform, and four alloy steel plates rose up on the platform, wrapping Lu Ping inside.

Damn, it's not like you want to wrap me in it and make a roasted whole person, right?
The platform trembled for a moment, as if the elevator had suddenly started, creating a feeling of weightlessness, but the direction was not downward, but horizontal.Lu Ping just felt a flash in front of his eyes, like thousands of streamers flickering, and when he saw the shadow again, he was already standing in a forest, surrounded by thousands of years old trees, the ground was covered with green grass, and the air was full of the fragrance of flowers and plants.

Where is this?Lu Ping pulled out the big map to check it in doubt, and he was immediately stunned. In just a second, he jumped from the distant overseas to the mainland. Looking at the world map on the official website as a reference, the city of Pierpont Should be nearby!
What's even more strange is that the place he had been to before, that is, the location of the small island, is now covered by black fog again!Where the player has been, the black mist will be cleared automatically in the area that the player can see, forming a map that can be zoomed in and out at will. Places that have never been heard of before will be covered by black mist again.

The mysterious island, the mysterious person, and the mysterious teleportation machine, everything is like a dream.Lu Ping believed that if he arrived at that place now, he might not be able to find the island. Even if the island was still there, he would never be able to enter, unless he got their permission and summons.

On that small island, if you enter a room randomly, there are thousands of eggs, including dragon eggs and phoenix eggs, so what about other rooms?What's in it?What is their origin to have such a big deal?

Thinking of the phoenix egg, Lu Ping immediately thought that the little phoenix belonged to him, and he was so excited that he almost yelled up to the sky.
