I really only stop

"Hmph~ I think Ruoweixi doesn't understand at all~"

Probably feeling that Lu Xi was treating her too much like a child at this time, Celica snorted faintly, and turned her head away on purpose:

"I want a copy of the [Love Yogurt Exquisite Gift Box] that Fenmao got just now."

"?"

Looking puzzled at Celica who suddenly said such words, a question mark appeared in Lu Xi's head:

"That thing is a box 3D printed by Nova. Don't we have a lot of new flavors of yogurt that haven't been sold yet? Isn't drinking that better than a gift box?"

"I don't care! I just want it!"

I don't know what to think of, Celica stomped her feet with a flushed face, and stomped the floor so loudly:

"Could it be that Ruoqiangxi wants to refuse to offer sacrifices to the supreme me? Be careful that I eat up your food and curse you?"

It doesn't matter if you eat it all, just ask Cook to do it again.I'm quite worried about whether you will have a stomachache if you eat two servings.

Fearing that this idiot, who only has time to lose his mind, would really eat two meals in a fit of anger, Lu Xi had no choice but to raise his hands in surrender:

"Okay, okay, arrange it now, arrange it now."

Celica nodded in satisfaction:

"Woo! My heart is so happy!"

--------------

I have made a lot of money recently.

Seeing the soaring numbers on his adventurer card, even though he was not short of money before, Lucy rolled on the bed contentedly.

Things like money were actually created to satisfy human desires.Rich and poor alike are happy to find money on the road - that's the magic of money.

Facts have proved that Lu Xi's original judgment was correct.

As a member of the Batley family, Haimo was born with the innate ability to 'freely manipulate and transform bacteria'.And he used to use this kind of ability as an attack skill before, this is simply reckless!

Just as every necromancer is a 007 slave owner who will not be held accountable by law, in Lu Xi's eyes, every plague warlock is equivalent to a research center and manufacturing factory related to microorganisms on the earth.

Technology is the primary productive force. If people in other worlds were more alive, they would have developed into a real interstellar civilization long ago with the unimaginable power of 'magic'.

...Wait, interstellar civilization?

Thinking of something suddenly, Lu Xi's expression froze for a moment.

In other words, since people from another world were able to create an unimaginable sky city like Osiris ten thousand years ago, why did the technology lag behind so much after ten thousand years?

If you draw a list, compared with the period of the floating kingdom ten thousand years ago, although the current world is far inferior in alchemy technology, it is better than the development of a convenient and reliable adventurer power system with a low threshold, and the power of the Holy See. Be stronger.

Thinking about it this way, it is really not clear which is better and which is worse.

"Cough, think too far."

Feeling that he didn't have much drowsiness at first and gradually faded away with thinking, Lu Xi quickly took a deep breath and expelled all these distracting thoughts from his mind:

"Go back to Osiris tomorrow to visit Haimer, and tell him the news that his improved yogurt is selling well."

----------------

Because I made up my mind before going to bed last night, after a hasty breakfast, Lu Xi took Miss Cat to Osiris.

Ok?Ask me why should I bring that one?

After the incident of being almost caught by Yuxia last time, I didn't dare to call Claire who was undercover in the imperial capital for a while.And I don't want Qianqian, who has not grown up, to get too involved in the troublesome things about the demons. After thinking about it, this cat is the only one who can meet Haimo with me.

Of course, the reason Lu Xi told Miss Maomao was not like this——

"Oh? Not bad, holder of joy."

Proudly raising her head, Selena patted Lu Xi's chest with her short hands:

"You actually offered to help Gu rebuild the army, and even gave the little brother of the Batley family that he took over to give to Gu, you really understand~"

"After all, it is my own Pikachu, this is my responsibility as a trainer."

Stretched out two fingers and rubbed Miss Maomao's cheeks, watching the latter's comfortable look of "hehehe", Lu Xi narrowed his eyes with a smile:

"When will you be able to use your electrical skills?"

"Electricity? You can do it alone, but the best ones are ice and fire."

For a while, I didn't realize that there was any connection between the electric skills and "Pikachu" and "Trainer". Miss Cat and Cat could only ignore it as Lu Xi's usual weird words:

"Speaking of which, if what we are doing is discovered by that Basaka cow saint, needless to say, Gu's fate will definitely be miserable, right?"

Although she has never seen a pig run, the experienced Selena has seen many classic cases of love and hatred.And Miss Saint's own paranoid attributes are stronger than any of the heroines.

If the identity of the lonely trainer is really discovered...

The basca saint who made it into BBQ may still be reluctant, but if the lower part of the first 'B' is slightly erased, the possibility becomes very high.

Having said all that, this kid still has to take care of himself.

"I know that too."

Not noticing the subtle eyes of Miss Cat in his pocket, Lu Xi sighed:

"That's why I arranged Haimo in the most hidden corner of Sky City. As for future plans, we must go to the imperial capital to find the experienced Claire—eh? How did Haimo get out?"

While talking, Lu Xi suddenly saw Haimo poking his head out from the basement, looking out constantly.

As if he had noticed Lu Xi's existence, Haimo, who poked his head out, tilted his head and asked a somewhat abrupt question:

"Who are you?"

PS: (→)

Chapter 310 The Curse of the Bartley Clan

"……what?"

Due to the barrier of the bird's beak mask, Lu Xi couldn't tell whether the guy in front of him was pretending to be stupid or joking. He didn't realize it for a while, and pointed at himself subconsciously:

"What did you just ask me?"

"Ah, sorry, it looks like someone I know."

Bowing in a panic, Haimo went back underground along the stairs:

"Please wait a moment, I'm going to recall what happened recently!"

"...?"

"Sure enough, the final fate of the Bartley family still befalls him."

Silently watching where Haimo left, Lu Xi was completely puzzled, but Miss Cat in his pocket sighed knowingly:

"What a pity, Holder of Joy, it's rare that you have found a new helper for Gu, and now it seems that you have done useless work."

"What? Why is [Fate] again?"

After experiencing a series of events in the Hidden Shadow Realm, Lu Xi is now particularly sensitive to this word:

"Could it be that there is also a plot of destined sacrifice here?"

"Although Gu doesn't know what you're talking about, the word [destined] is very accurate."

Because there was no one else around, Miss Cat Cat directly used her magic to fly up and floated in front of Lu Xi:

"Batley is a family of so-called natural plague warlocks. They have unique talents and abilities. They can see diseases that ordinary people can't see, and use their own means to control them-but everything in the world has gains and losses. With such a powerful force, the members of this family also have curses that ordinary people can't imagine. One of them is [amnesia] after reaching a certain age."

"Amnesia?"

Subconsciously frowning, Lu Xi remembered Haimo's strange behavior just now:

"You mean, he didn't recognize me just now because he lost his memory?"

"Exactly. You should have noticed the notebook next to Haimer. If nothing else, it was prepared by him to resist his own amnesia."

Selena said: "Different from general sudden amnesia, the amnesia symptoms of the Bartley family are gradual and overall. They will slowly forget everything for a whole period of time, but they will be reminded or seen. Things like diaries will be recalled again, and then amnesia-after a few cycles of this, they will completely forget what happened during this period, and then start to lose earlier and larger-scale memories. "

"Hammer still has such a setting?!"

Although it sounds like nonsense, Haimo's strange behavior just now made Lu Xi have to believe Selena's information:

"Just now you said that this is just one of the curses. Could it be that there is another curse on him?"

"That's natural. The ecology of the Bartley family is quite interesting, and Gu used to watch them for a while."

Different from Lu Xi's astonishment, Selina has a normal heart for all this:

"Gu has summed up that although this family has powerful abilities, they must always remember their own destiny—【No future, walking on thin ice】."

no future?

Tasting the deep meaning behind Selena's words, Lu Xi fell into silence for a moment.

Based on what he just learned, the judgment that there is no future is extremely accurate.

The whole meaning of intellectual life is piled up by [experiences]. They are inheriting themselves from the previous moment all the time, flowing straight into the future like a meandering stream.

However, all of this will not happen to members of the Batley family.

They will continue to lose their memory forever, like a stream blocked and eroded by shallows.

The vortex of amnesia is like a big hand going upstream, not only cutting off their way forward, but also eroding their past accumulation.

When all the memories of a lifetime dissipate like bubbles, and return to the original point, how can they talk about the "future" like a blank sheet of paper?

"...Since amnesia is [a manifestation of no future]."

After a long silence, Lu Xi asked:

"Then what does [walking on thin ice] mean—"

"—It refers to this layer of [mask] on my face, Mr. Lu Xi."

A calm and slightly apologetic voice sounded from the bottom of the stairs, Lu Xi looked down, and happened to meet the reflective lens on the bird's beak mask:

"Hammer? Do you remember?"

"Yes, because this memory is relatively new, I recalled it after reading the diary carefully."

Scratching his head embarrassingly, Haimo lowered his head:

"I'm really sorry that I suddenly lost my memory and caused you so much trouble."

"No, it's fine."

Frowning and looking at Haimo in front of him, Lu Xi asked, "What do you mean by the mask?"

"As the puppet master in front of you said, this is the second curse on our family."

While speaking, Haimo pointed to his tightly sealed body:

"Although the Bartley family can control and transform bacteria at will, they themselves have no resistance to bacteria. Once we come into contact with even a little bit of germs, our whole body organs will collapse instantly until we die—we are obviously destined to be with bacteria, but we must always Beware of them, I think, this is why Master Puppet commented that we need to [walk on thin ice]."

"How dare you call the supreme lone [Doll]?"

Selina's sharp eyes stared at Haimo suddenly, and after finding that the latter didn't show much fear, she simply gave up and curled her lips:

"Forget it, looking at you like this, it is estimated that the final time limit is not far away, right? Have you found the living tomb?"

Living tomb?

Noticing Lu Xi's puzzled eyes, Haimo explained:

"Living tomb is our family's name for the destination after complete amnesia. As you know, after the [time limit], we who have completely lost memory are no different from newborn babies. Although the intelligence has dissipated, the body is still alive after all. Full of vitality. Most of the tribe will find a good place before losing their memory and entrust others to take care of themselves-this place is what we call the [living grave].”

"But from what I see, you don't look like you're looking for a living tomb at all."

Staring at Haimo's mask closely, Lu Xi frowned when he realized that something was wrong:

"This is the sphere of influence of human beings. You should be very clear that no one can take care of you who have completely lost your memory. It is even more impossible for you to expect that there are our cadres here before you set off from the devil world-so, you have no one from the beginning. Going to enter the living tomb, right?"

"...As expected of Lord Lu Xi, I really can't hide anything from you."

Even with the barrier of the mask, Lu Xi could still imagine Haimo's wry smile from the voice.

"You're right, I have no intention of entering the living tomb."

——After a moment of silence, Haimo said so.
