So I became a witch

"I asked knowingly, of course it's the big robot you summoned earlier. If I'm not wrong, it should be an imitation created by imitating one of the twelve races, the Aid tribe's unique skill 'arming of weapons', right? "

"...Why do you think it's an imitation?"

"Huh? Isn't this a matter of course? Because the genuine 'armed weapon' is impossible to use except for the Aid tribe or people recognized by the Aide tribe, and the power is not so small. Considering that you bring The little girl from the Eddie tribe who came back, in all likelihood, that machine is the product of that world. But even so, it is enough for an ordinary person to exert the power above Xingyan." Ah Rezia took a straw from the side, put it directly into the wine glass, and drank the red wine like a cola.

I was secretly taken aback.Regarding the matter of the Dragon Knight, neither I nor Ling should have never described it in detail, but simply introduced the "inheritance left by the Aide tribe". Unexpectedly, Arisia immediately guessed that "Black Dragon The origin of ", whether it is this observation ability or subsequent action ability, can be called decisive. It is no wonder that he can become the current head of Lopez at a mere age.

"...You are right. The black dragon is indeed a weapon created by the people in the world I went to to resist the void beasts. However, the black dragon cannot give it to you, because there should be no other monsters in this world except me. It’s only right that people can drive it.”

"Is it 'exclusive'? It's really troublesome... Then, there is always the corresponding technology?"

"Yes, there are... But with all due respect, dragon knights are not so easy to create, right?"

The first is the problem of design drawings.Various issues such as the driver's ability to withstand, the degree of resonance, the maximum output, energy flow, weapon equipment, and the use of materials must be taken into account. These all need to be carefully studied and designed.The combination of various factors made it possible to pass the assessment. The number of official dragon knight designers is extremely rare, and top designers like Shenmengji and Teacher Luolan are even rarer. Enough to make a small and medium-sized family go bankrupt dozens of times.

The second is the issue of materials.The legendary Dragon Knight is a powerful weapon created by the Elders using their half body as a guide.In the ancient age of gods and demons, the gods and demons built the best weapons for themselves by raising the Ed family. It was not until the appearance of Star King Lydias that they liberated their family from their tragic fate.The special ability that even gods and demons covet, naturally cannot be ordinary.It took a long time for people living in different worlds to finally find a special raw metal similar to the physique of the Eide family, and named it "Ede Metal".This kind of metal can carry the "soul" to a certain extent, and resonate with the driver's consciousness, thus exerting terrible power.Although it is far inferior to the serial dragon knights built by the Aide tribe, it is more than enough to deal with ordinary virtual beasts.However, in this world, I doubt whether it is possible to find materials with "life" and "soul" similar to "Ed Metal".

The third is the driving problem of energy.Most of the driving energy of dragon knights comes from the black crystal covered on the calamity beast, as well as some natural energy mines. I don't know if we can find a substitute here.

The fourth word is the driver's personal quality.Because the Ed family has been fed by gods and demons for many years, most of them are polluted by the breath of gods and demons, just like the Rockefellers who live in a different world. They are also descendants of the blood of the gods. ", to be more inclined to the "sacred soul".And the dragon knights thus created are naturally more inclined to the "Road of the Holy Soul".

Chapter 13 agree

"Mortal world" and holy soul, these two roads are absolutely disjoint parallel lines for ordinary people, everyone's "container" is limited, once you choose "mortal world", it is impossible to choose "holy soul" , and vice versa.Unless it is guided by the more compatible "Xingyan" to reverse the "Holy Soul", it is like Clarence's approach. Although this path is also possible, it is also too difficult to go to the end. Overcoming hardships, unless one possesses a "device" that transcends the world like the holder of the Void Eye, the extreme of the two is the ultimate that the beings of this world can reach.A genius like Clarence can only reach this level at most.

To put it simply, for demon hunters, it may be more difficult to drive the dragon knight than ordinary people, which is one of the reasons why I didn't say anything about the dragon knight.

"You don't have to worry about that kind of thing. As long as you can hand over the design drawings, I will take care of the rest." Arisia folded her arms and leaned back on the seat superior.

"Since you have said that, then I have nothing to say." Anyway, things in other worlds should not be protected by copyright laws in this world——I muttered a sentence in my heart, and at the same time secretly said to Shen Mengji I'm sorry, "However, this is unique after all. It belongs to the heritage of the Aide clan, one of the twelve legendary clans. It's not some Chinese cabbage that is sold at random on the roadside. I wonder if you can pay me enough chips? For example Say, what is the reason why you still want to buy the Dragon Knight after hearing about these flaws?"

"Well, it's not a secret worth keeping anyway. Of course, all of this is to prepare as much as possible for the upcoming war. This is also my great-grandmother's last wish." Arisia whispered.

"Your great-grandmother—Ms. Adiline Lopez?" I asked.

"That's right, that's exactly the case. At the same time, she is also one of the few demon hunters who managed to survive from the front line in that epic battle 400 years ago." Arisia said.

"You mean——your grandmother participated in the war 400 years ago?" My pupils suddenly constricted.

"That's right, and I don't know whether to say luck or misfortune. Unlike other survivors, she still seems to remember some things about that war. Those memories are like nightmares, tormenting her every day, It wasn't until last year that she was finally freed from that nightmare." Arisia said in a low voice, the corners of her mouth suddenly raised, her eyes narrowed into the shape of a crescent moon, "I know, you seem to be investigating What about the incident 400 years ago. Although I don’t know why you did this, I don’t think you want to miss this information. If you refuse, then you probably have to go to the legendary twelve tribes. , maybe we can find out some of the truth, as for the difficulty..." She chuckled lightly, stopped on purpose, raised her red wine as if she was holding a winning ticket, and drank it down with her head up. He coughed loudly because he accidentally choked on it.

"Ahem, tissues, give me tissues..." She coughed violently while blushing and shouted. The driver who was going to stop the car just now finally entered the bar. After seeing the girl in pain, he panicked immediately. He picked up the napkin next to the girl's seat, but didn't notice the traces of the pepper powder that Arisia accidentally knocked over the napkin, so it was like this——

"...Eyes! Ahhhhhh my eyes!"

Ignoring the jokes of the two, my thoughts were buried in Arisia's words just now.I have to admit that the bargaining chip she gave is exactly what I lack most now, that is, information.If her grandmother really participated in the war 400 years ago, as Arisia said, and even preserved some of her memories, then there is a high probability that there will be what I want to find.

"Ahem, I made you laugh." Arisia, who was in a hurry on the other side, finally came back to her senses, and wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, but the corners of her eyes were dark red, and I'm afraid it won't go away for a while. "This is one of the conditions I can give. I don't know what you want? Besides, I will also give you wealth that an ordinary person can't spend even in a few lifetimes." You can hide your name from now on, completely break away from these shitty things in the world of demon hunters, and live a perfect life."

"Live an ordinary life? It sounds good... But unfortunately, this choice was abandoned by me a long time ago. I agree with your deal, but I need the help of the Lopez family to ensure that I can There will be no hindrance in investigating what happened 400 years ago."

"No problem, but at the same time, if we encounter trouble in the manufacture of weapons, you can't just sit by and watch."

"Well, actually, I don't know much about this stuff, so I can only say that I did my best."

"Well, that's enough. I wish us a happy cooperation." Arisia readily extended a right hand, and after a moment of hesitation, I also shook it.In an instant, my palm was immediately stuck to a sticky touch. It was the oil stain from the steak. It seemed that it was stuck in the panic just now.Arisia obviously knew this too. Even so, she shook her hand without changing her smile. Presumably it was for revenge and vigilance, and the picture of her embarrassment just now must not be leaked.

It seems that she is another young lady with a rather troublesome personality.No, it's better to say that none of the young ladies I have contacted is a fuel-efficient lamp.

"Speaking of which, I've heard about you many times, but this is the first time I've had a one-on-one conversation like this. As expected, you have an elusive personality that doesn't match your appearance. After the deal was reached, Arisia obviously relaxed, and the table that was messed up before was also immediately changed back to the one we saw before we first came in under her order.

"No, that's why I'm an adult, it's just because of an accident that I became like this." I said weakly.

"Even so, it's amazing enough, why didn't I find out when I was in the academy?" Arisia exclaimed, "How about it, why don't you just come to work in my family? In terms of recruiting talents, We are treated very favorably, huh?"

Chapter 14 Spark Project

"...No, I still have something to do now." For some reason, Xia Luohua's back when she left suddenly flashed in my mind, and even the strength to joke disappeared, "What's more, with me The current body is far from being able to bear your love."

"Who knows, after all, this kind of thing can never be predicted." Arisia said meaningfully, "Well, of course I didn't intend to force you, let's talk about it when you change your mind. By the way, I put the information you want in the temporary residence, if you agree, come with me."

"...I understand." I nodded, and it seemed that there was no better choice now.Some kind of intuition tells me that in the relics left by Arisia's grandmother, there may be a way to break the current deadlock.

"Then, please continue to be the driver, Adam."

"Ah, I see, Miss." The man who was in charge of picking us up just now scratched his head and said with a sigh.

After leaving the bar, we got into the antique taxi again.The man of course sat in the front row alone, and the three of us sat in the back row together.

"Oh, so that's the case. It's really a wonderful structure. No wonder it's hard to imitate. After all, it's a product created under different rules... I don't know if I can ask the Mechanical Clan, one of the twelve families, to How can it be done?"

"Machine Clan?" Ariel asked a little question.

"Ah, the family in charge of the power of the machine..." Arisia looked at Ariel with interest, "So, as a descendant of the Aide tribe, you are considered orthodox? I wonder if those guys will What do you think of you?"

"Although I don't know what you want to do, but you are absolutely not allowed to use Ariel, otherwise the transaction will be cancelled." I said seriously.

"It's just a joke. After all, for that child, it would be a blessing if he could find his own family."

"Hey? But aren't the twelve races in this world formed spontaneously by the humans in this world?" I was stunned for a moment.

"...Spark Project." Ariel whispered.

"what is that?"

Ariel frowned, and said with a slightly painful expression: "It seems that a long, long time ago, the last Star King issued an order, in order to preserve the embers of Star Clan as much as possible under the ravages of the witch, The twelve tribes each carried a piece of the emperor's weapon and left in different directions. And the emperor himself, alone, went to stop the strongest witch to delay everyone's escape time."

"After that, the universe was split into countless fragments by the witch's terrifying power, and there is no more emperor in the world."

"We began to wander in the gaps of nothingness, and spent an extremely long period of time, until the aftermath of the witch's power dissipated and the world was reborn, we finally settled down on a planet, using the knowledge and power of Star Clan , to help those beings born in the new world—this is, the 'Spark Project'."

"So that's the case, are you giving hope to the new lives? In that case, it seems that the gods on our side are doing the same." Arisia said thoughtfully.

"Yes... As long as the twelve tribes survived that disaster, they should have followed the emperor's last order and carried out the 'Spark Project'. Then, the Star Clan living in this world should They are the remnants of the Irene family who used to be in charge of the power of life." Ariel continued, "Unlike the other eleven families, the members of the Irene family seem to have taken on an additional mission."

"An extra mission?"

"Yes, in addition to inheriting the emperor's weapon and the inheritance of knowledge, the Irene family should have additionally inherited the 'seed of life' from the other eleven families. With their power, even in a world with nothing In this way, life can also be created.”

"Create life..." In this way, at the last sacrifice, I saw that Ruoyi, who claimed to be the current patriarch of the Irene clan, said the same thing. They sowed the seeds of life in this world, passed on knowledge, and at the same time Guided human beings to form an organization to protect others from virtual beasts, that is the earliest demon hunter organization, in charge of twelve families with different star powers.

According to what Ariel said, then the Twelve Clans might not be the existence similar to ordinary people as we imagined.

"A descendant who inherited the blood of the real twelve races..." I muttered to myself, if this is the case, then things will become a little more subtle.

"Yes, if there is nothing wrong with the plan, then maybe there should also be descendants here who inherited Ed's blood." Ariel said softly.

"Rumors like this seem to have appeared a long time ago. However, after all, the whereabouts of the twelve tribes have always been secretive, and no one has seen the real twelve tribes, so it cannot be confirmed. However, if it is you , maybe you can really solve this mystery?" Arisia raised the corners of her mouth, looked at Ariel and said.

I ignored Arisia, who was stirring up the flames, and asked softly, "So, do you want to know?"

"...Well. If they really inherited Ed's blood, I..." Ariel replied in a low voice.

"Understood, then, after the matter here is resolved, let's pay a good visit to the legendary twelve clans."

"Is that okay?" Ariel said, looking at me with her eyes wide open.

"Ah, not only you, I also have things that I want to find out, so no matter what, I have to go to the twelve clans. By the way, since before the decisive battle between the emperor and the witch, each clan brought a As for the Emperor's Weapon, do you still remember which Emperor's Weapon the Irene family brought?"

Ariel frowned, and said with some uncertainty: "I remember... probably, it's the Star Crown."

Sure enough, in this case, everything can be matched.

According to Ling, just like the Star Seal Sword possesses the power of "connection", the Star Crown controls the power of "selecting the Star King". Only those who are recognized by the Star Crown can become the new Star King.At the same time, because the Irene clan carries the "genetic information" of the other eleven clans, probably considering this, the emperor chose to entrust them to keep the Star Crown.

In order to be able to complete the revival of Star Clan by the Irene Clan in the worst case.

The fact is indeed as planned. Under the guidance of the Irene Clan, a demon hunter organization led by the Twelve Clans has also appeared in this world similar to the Star Clan in the past.Only the last important factor is missing, and the plan can be achieved.

Chapter 15 Must-Know Truths

That is Huang.

However, it is regrettable that in the billions of years since the birth of the earth, there has been no emperor in this world.Perhaps it was because of the witch's curse, or because the world itself was not suitable for the birth of an emperor, or it could be other reasons.From full of hope at the beginning, to disappointment, and then to despair later, it is hard to imagine what kind of psychological changes the Irene family has experienced, especially 400 years ago. The reason is gone.

That's why the "Emperor Building Plan" came into being.No, this plan should have been implemented earlier.One of its products is the "Eye of Void" that resides on my right eye.

When I think of my own destiny, maybe it has been decided by someone or a certain plan long, long ago, I shudder.As much as I instinctively fear and loathe it all, this is not the time to protest.In order to save Ling and her world, I must use all the available power around me as much as possible.

Even if you lose yourself because of it, you will not hesitate.

"We're here." Arisia's light words brought my thoughts back to reality.At some point, we have come to an old castle. Judging from the surrounding tall trees and rusty guard gates, it is obvious that this old castle has a long history, at least not shorter than that of Xibel's house.

"This is where my great-grandmother Adiline Lopez used to live. Well, although I only came here when I was a child and when my great-grandmother passed away, I don't have much memory of it now. However, with There is no change from before." Arisia said, looking at the periphery of the castle with nostalgia.

"Is this where your great-grandmother lived?"

"Well, since she passed away, no one has lived in it, but there is still regular cleaning... Come in." Arisia took out the key and opened the iron door in front, a heavy breath paved the surface come.Although most of the decorations in the castle are in the ancient style, it can be seen that it should have been renovated, and there is not much dust accumulation in the room. The sunlight shines through the glazed windows in the hall, casting mottled colorful shadows.

"By the way, did your great-grandmother live here alone?" I asked.

"Yes, in the ten years before her death, her physical condition suddenly became worse. After many treatments failed, the great-grandmother offered to move back to her hometown here by herself. It's a person."

"Is it because... the sequelae of the great war 400 years ago?"

"Perhaps. After the death of my great-grandmother, the entire Lopez family began to be completely chaotic, because we were still young among the demon hunters, and those other family members who coveted or feared the Lopez family colluded secretly Some people in our family began to split the party, and it took a long time to... well, these are all boring words, so don’t listen to them.” Arisia casually turned on the light switch on the wall, and the whole The room was completely lit up.

"So in the end, Arisia, you will inherit the family? Obviously you are only 18 years old, you are really amazing." I said sincerely.

"It's just luck, and to this day, there are still too many guys who want to kill me." Arisia sneered, her expression was not at all what a girl who had just grown up should have.

"That's why you only brought a driver and came to England alone?"

"Ah, after all, I have to hide it from the eyes of other people in the family. In their eyes, I should be still in Rutias Academy, busy holding a meeting with the other eleven school managers. But probably no one can Thinking about it, I deliberately concealed my whereabouts and came to you for a deal. As long as I can get the secret of the "armed weapon", then my position in the family can be strengthened, and you can also get what you want Information, it can be regarded as the best of both worlds." Arisia smiled and narrowed her eyes.

"Well, I don't want to ask too much about the internal affairs of your family, as long as I can get what I want is enough." I shrugged and said, "I have shown you the blueprint of the 'Dragon Knight' Partly, what about the information about 400 years ago? Can you tell me, please?"

"Of course, it's an agreement after all. But now I probably can't give it to you directly, because I don't know." Arisia confessed.

"...Are you lying to me?"

"How come, I really don't know, can you expect a guy living in modern times to understand what happened 400 years ago? But I know where the information is hidden, so I brought you here."

"You mean... in this old castle?" I immediately understood what she meant.

"That's right." Arisia snapped her fingers, "This is where my great-grandmother lived for the last time. With her character, I'm afraid the truth of history will not be completely buried. After her death , this place has been kept sealed, so I'm pretty sure no one else has stepped here except us and the cleaning staff. And her relics have been kept well in the basement. About what you want Everything you know is stored there."

She unhurriedly took out a bunch of keys from her pocket and waved them in front of my eyes.

"In the end, do we still have to find it ourselves?" I sighed.

"Of course I will also come to help. After all, I am also a little curious about the incident 400 years ago. They all said that the war is not far away. If they can get some information in advance, it will be a worthwhile trip."

"I don't think it's necessary..."

After all, with the Witch as the opponent, or the legendary Four Witches, there is not much difference whether it is Mortal Chen or Xingyan, and only God Forbidden can breathe a little in front of such an existence, but it is just as small as a bug.

To be honest, until now, I still haven't thought of a way to defeat that terrible witch. Even in the prime of life, there is no possibility.Her power is far beyond my comprehension, she is not at the same level at all, even the Void Eye can't interpret the life of that level.The only thing I can do is to find the lost Star Crown according to Ling's plan, and use its power to seal the witch again.

For this reason, it is necessary to understand the truth of the war 400 years ago.

Chapter No.16 Investigation Begins

"Anyway, it's still early, why don't we start searching now?" Arisia turned the key at her fingertips.Her proposal is also a good choice for me. After all, I only have less than a month left, so I can save as much as I can.

We followed Arisia together and went all the way down the stairs to the basement.If the upper floor can be regarded as barely tidy, then the space on the basement floor is a complete mess.It can be seen that no one has been here for a long time, and there are sundries piled up everywhere, as well as black bags tied up like garbage.

We turned to Arisia at the same time, and she shrugged: "Don't look at me like that—didn't I say that, except for my great-grandmother, no one has ever been here, even the cleaning staff are not allowed When I went down to the basement, she took care of it all by herself, so I didn't know what it was like before I came here."

"Could it be, you just want to find a free cleaner?" I looked at Arisia suspiciously and said.

"How could it be. Well, stop talking so much nonsense, you have something you want to find, so help me clean it up together." Arisia walked towards the pile of garbage without changing her expression. Began to search carefully.

Ariel and I looked at each other, and we had no choice but to join Arisia's team with a wry smile.Soon I immediately regretted it, because the things left by Arisia's great-grandmother are too complicated.I don't know if it was because I was too lazy to deal with it, so other people pushed all the things related to Adiline into the basement, causing all kinds of leftovers of life to completely destroy this relatively large basement. It was full, including the toothbrush Adiline used, the bath towel, the facial cleanser and hand cream, and all kinds of small relics brought back from travel.In the beginning, I could use the Eye of Void to see if there was anything I needed, but it didn't take long before I collapsed due to exhaustion, and I simply handed over the identification to Ariel.

Soon, one day passed like this, but the huge basement was only less than one-third of the space vacant. It seemed that it would take a while to find the information left by Arisia's great-grandmother. .

"So, I've really worked hard today everyone." Arisia shook the wine glass in her hand. The dark brown liquid in the glass showed a bright color under the crystal lamp, and there were countless tiny bubbles floating on the surface of the liquid.We also raised the wine glass in front of the table, touched it symbolically, and drank the liquid in it.

Well, as expected, iced Coke tastes better.

"Speaking of which, don't you think our dinner is a bit strange even though you live in such a high-end castle?"

"Huh? I don't think there is any problem." Arisia waved the knife and fork in her hand, cut the steaming burger in front of her into small pieces, and then stuffed it into her mouth, "When you were in school, no Do you often call for similar supper?"

"No, no, so supper is supper. Boss, you can be regarded as a rich man in this world, but you are still here with ordinary people like me, sitting at the luminous table, drinking Don't you feel shabby with a Coke and a hamburger?"

"Huh? What's wrong with the hamburger? Are you looking down on the hamburger, huh? This is a delicacy that has been passed down for 1200 years, and it's not a history that can be insulted casually!"

"...So it's because of this that you are always called a nouveau riche by others."
