The walker from Xingyue, Demon King Rimuru!

"..." Limuru was slightly taken aback, and turned his head stiffly to look at Sasha...

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Sasha's calm eyes, and she slowly turned her head away——

"Hiss, so you all know about our engagement, but I'm the only one who doesn't?!"

"Well, this is not a secret in itself, although I did deliberately hide it from you and didn't want to tell you—" Lidel said lightly, "Because..."

"Maybe I don't want you to accept me because of the marriage contract?"

Hearing this, Limuru suddenly froze.

"Hey, but if you know, even though I'm not satisfied with this level, at least you have to shoulder the responsibility of being a fiancé."

Lidal walked up to Limulu lightly, pressed the apple to Limulu's mouth and said, "Take a bite?"

"Ang...?" Limulu took a bite in a daze... The next moment, Lidel's face moved closer, and a touch of warmth and softness flooded into Limulu's heart.

"..." After seeing this scene, Eilaire was eager to repeat the trick to push the faces of the two people away. On the side, a pair of hands suddenly crossed Eilaire's armpit and hugged her up. ——

The stupid hair on Elaire's head instantly turned into a question mark, and she turned her head to look at Sasha who hugged her indifferently——hehehe!my teacher! !

"Hmm...how does it taste?" After a while, Lidel raised her blushing cheeks and asked softly.

"Hmm..." Limulu stretched out her small hand, pressed the opponent's head, and printed her lips on it again——

"It's sweet."

Chapter 132, Encounter, Halletus in childhood!

Four days later, Limuru came to the place agreed with Tranbelio—the huge underground cavity on the last floor of the museum where the only dean is. There, there is a transmission device that enters the tomb through the crack .

Spiral wooden stairs surround the entire huge underground square to form a long passage layer after layer, and at the entrance of the passage, it seems that one of Trambellio's men is standing there straight, Patiently waiting for Limulu's arrival.

Limulu walked through the gate lightly, seeing only the scattered staff of the Anatomy Bureau wearing uniform hooded uniforms around, and thought for a while.

Amnitfis did not specify what he was asked to do in the tomb, nor did he tell him how many days to stay in the tomb, but according to the regulations of the Anatomy Bureau, the processing period for matters not related to excavation is generally seven days, that is to say, Is your longest stay seven days?

Well, if there are only seven days, it is obviously difficult to get the support of some diggers or to subdue your own family, but if it is just revenge on Meastea, will it appear that I am too small-minded? ?

Well, besides, it would be a bit of a loss for me if I wasted seven days on seeking revenge.

After all, the reason why monarchs are strictly restricted from entering the tomb is that, with the support of the Association of Magicians, most monarchs have the privilege of searching for materials at will—

In other words... what I find is mine.

Whether it was the fragment of the Conqueror's cloak obtained by Kenneth, or a more precious material, as long as it belonged to the monarch's power, or something the monarch found, then the monarch was entitled to deal with it arbitrarily.

And this is also valid in the spiritual tomb. In fact, the main purpose of most monarchs applying to enter the spiritual tomb is to find precious materials, such as dragon scales and dragon remains.

Therefore, in addition to revenge during these seven days, Limuru can also spend most of his time on going deep and exploring.

How to distribute it has become the most important issue for Limuru at present.

"Are you Lord Limulu?" Suddenly, a gentle boy's voice interrupted Limulu's thinking. Limulu looked up and saw a man wearing a hooded uniform at the entrance of the passage. The slender man with only his snow-white chin standing there, greeted him with a smile.

The other party was tall... Limuru straightened his head again, then raised his eyelids to look at the other party, but he could only see the other party's slender waist and chest... This made a big cross pop out on his forehead.

Damn Tranbelio, wouldn't it be on purpose?

"Are you the person in charge of receiving me? Did you come early?" Limulu said angrily, "There is still more than half an hour before the appointed time?"

"Ah." Hearing this, the hooded man chuckled and nodded, and said, "Because I thought that Your Excellency Limulu should come early, and it's your first time to go to the tomb, so according to the regulations, there are some The rules of the tomb need to be told to you."

"Ah, I have read all those regulations." Limulu glanced at other places, and lazily said: "If Tranbelio has something you need to bring to me, then it goes without saying .”

"..." Limulu's words seemed a little rude, but apparently the man in the hood didn't care, he turned around quietly, looked at the entrance of the closed passage, and suddenly said: "Hey, Your Excellency Limulu , I have a question I want to ask you."

"Oh?"

"What do you think of Albion, or the diggers below?"

"..." Hearing this question, Limulu narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the other party: "Tranbellio asked you to ask?"

"No, it's my own problem." The hooded man smiled softly.

"Then you are really asking the wrong person. I haven't even been to the tomb, so what can I say?" Limulu pondered cautiously for a moment, and said, "If I really want to answer your question, let's talk about it as a worker ant." .”

"Worker ants...?" The hooded man was silent for a while, and said, "It seems that in the eyes of most famous families, ordinary magicians are also worker ants."

Limulu looked at the entrance of the passage, and suddenly said indifferently: "Can't we go in early?"

"The transmission command for the entrance is controlled by the headquarters of the Secret Skeleton Anatomy Bureau. Otherwise, it can only be opened from the inside - the outside world cannot affect the internal operation of the tomb, so we can only wait for the time to come." Hood The man explained, and at the same time, after seeing that Limuru didn't want to answer that question, he quickly changed the subject: "So, what do you think about the redevelopment of Albion, Your Excellency Limuru?"

"Is this your problem too?"

"Yes."

"Oh, that makes me curious." Limulu tilted his head in doubt, and said, "Why do you care about issues of this level?"

The redevelopment of Albion, the spiritual tomb, was proposed several times by Lord Urifis, but was suppressed by most of the monarchs without exception.

"Isn't it strange for you to ask this question? It's because I work in the Secret Skeleton Anatomy Bureau that I should be concerned about these things, right?" The man in the hood smiled and said, "Don't you worry about it? ?"

"Even at this moment, the mystery is still deteriorating. The possibility of magicians reaching the root is decreasing every second. It can be said that it is already as small as dust."

"If you still want to continue to pursue the root cause, you can only boldly use a reversal move. The plan to use the power of the clock tower to promote the redevelopment of Albion, the spiritual tomb, is indeed very attractive. Wait until the next generation, perhaps It can't be done."

"Tsk, what a bold and radical statement. I now believe that this is your own problem, because that fellow Tranbellio can't express such a point of view."

Hearing this, Limulu raised his eyebrows, turned around with great interest, raised his head to look at him and said, "Then have you ever thought that the essence of developing Albion, the spiritual tomb, is actually to revive the Age of Gods?" Is the price too great to use the power of the Phantasmal Species again, to deny the meaning of being a magician and human beings, and to attribute everything to the gods and Phantasmal Species?"

I have to say that the other party's words did arouse Limulu's interest. In the clock tower, daring to say such a thing so boldly is like publicly spraying the boxing representative on the current Weibo, which is a typical political mistake.

"But... we are a race that is gradually dying out. Probably every magician thinks so? In this case, if someone says there is a way to escape from extinction..."

"Probably everyone would easily sell their so-called souls." The hooded man said softly, "Besides, what's the difference between the class division between gods and humans, and the class division between magicians today?"

"..." Hearing the other party's remarks, Limuru was a little speechless for a while. It is true that this theory seems to distinguish itself from ordinary people from the beginning and consider itself a race. It doesn't make sense.

Standing on the side of mankind will perish, and the return of the Age of Gods can at least continue. This is probably the common inner thinking of most magicians who support the return of the Age of Gods.

However, isn't this a bit off topic... Limulu's eyes are wandering... Although the redevelopment of Albion in the Tomb of the Spiritual Tomb involves the development of the magic system of the Age of Gods, it does not mean that the Age of Gods will return...

The most important reason why most monarchs refuse to deeply develop Albionne's residual magic system is that, apart from the possibility of the return of the Age of Gods and the destruction of human civilization for more than 2000 years, the bigger reason is indeed... ...The power system of the Age of Gods will have a great impact on the existing magic system.

You must know that the magic system based on the clock tower in the world today has been developed to the present level after more than 2000 years of research and accumulation after the disappearance of human beings in the Age of Gods.

But even so, even the top magicians are as fragile as children when facing the heroic spirits at the end of the Age of Gods or even the end of the Age of Gods, such as Saber.

But there is no way to do this in itself. Modern magicians are essentially human beings, while in the age of the gods... mortals can only be mortals. Except for children who are favored by the gods and can be blessed to use the magic of the age of gods, Jin Shining is half-human and half-god , Saber has the blood of the red dragon, and Merlin is a hybrid of the fantasy species-in that era, human beings did not dominate the world.

Now, times are different.

The birth of the alaya consciousness of the primate also represents that human beings have already produced the dominant consciousness of the Lord of All Things, even if they are the dean of magicians, Bathmelo, or the monarch of Amnetfis, etc. , also began to work hard for the survival of mankind.

Therefore, for most monarchs, the modern magic system is far more important than the magic system of the age of gods.

If one quotes a well-known magician’s refusal to redevelop the spiritual tomb in the original book, it would be——

"That is an act of betraying our history of 'farewell to the age of the gods and choosing modern magic', and it is an act of abandoning the progress that has been diligently managed for 2000 years, even if it is far less glorious than the past."

In fact, on this point, Limuru quite agrees.

"Human beings have worked hard for more than 2000 years. Whether they are ordinary people or magicians, they should be proud of the progress of these 2000 years, not regret it." Limulu said lightly: "So, if it is not necessary, I might say no?"

"A proposal for the redevelopment of the spiritual tomb."

"I think..." Limuru turned around and smiled lightly, "As a phantom hybrid, such a statement is definitely credible, right?"

If other monarchs objected, it might be because they were afraid that the magic system of the Age of Gods would destroy their interests as monarchs, but Limuru was absolutely impossible. There is no harm at all. Rather, it is precisely because of the disappearance of the phantom species that the times are destined to destroy his family. Then, he should support the proposal of redevelopment of the spiritual tomb even more.

"Ah, is that so?" Hearing this, the hooded man nodded and fell silent.

The other party stopped talking, and Limuru did not continue to speak. He was thinking about the purpose of the other party's asking these words.

Is it for Tranbelio, or for other princes?

Could it be that recently, apart from the turmoil with Measteia inside the clock tower, the issue of redevelopment of Albion, the spiritual tomb, has also begun to stir up trouble?

Well, no matter what, my attitude has already been said...

Just when Limulu was uncertain, suddenly, the passage leading to the underground opened in front of them again. Limulu glanced at the time reflexively, and found that there were still more than ten minutes before the agreed time.

"Open early?"

"Someone should have come out from inside, good luck."

Someone came out?Limulu looked at the entrance of the passage suspiciously, and saw several figures similar to the uniform of a hooded man slowly walking out of the deep dark passage. Among them, surrounded by a shivering, thin, extremely pale man. Boys - or teenagers.

"Who is that?"

He was only wearing tattered clothes, and there were a few wounds on his arms. Above the timid clear eyes was a dirty and messy head of ear-length short hair that couldn't hide the fiery red.

For some reason, when seeing that group of people, Limulu always felt that the man in the hood beside him gritted his teeth, but when he looked at him, he only saw the same smile from the other side: "That's the man who survived the tomb." By."

The man in the hood explained softly: "There are a total of four cracks in the tomb, except for the clock tower and the two fixed entrances underground of the Anatomy Bureau, the other cracks will always enter or sneak into some magicians by mistake, and if these people can It’s hard to survive, and if there is value, it will be brought back to the ground.”

"However, I remember that entering the tomb without authorization is a crime..."

"That's right, so even if they are brought back to the ground, it's not to give them back their freedom, but to bring them back to the clock tower because of their ability [it's a pity to give up], and wait for other famous families... to take them in."

"..."

"As you can imagine, even the so-called admission is just the asylum of the so-called famous family. Most people will be branded with the brand of their family and continue to return to the tomb to work. Most of them are more than wild diggers. It’s just a few more chances to go in and out of the spiritual tomb and see the sky.”

"But seeing that child is so thin, probably no one will take him in?"

"What happens to people who won't be taken in?"

"Of course it's sent back to the spiritual tomb...to be a wild digger." Hearing this, the hooded man looked at those people and said calmly: "Infiltrating into the spiritual tomb is a death penalty. Once you enter, you can only stay in it for a lifetime." , to fend for itself.”

"You seem to understand..."

"Well, after all, this is also one of my jobs." The hooded man smiled and said, "Say, let's go, Your Excellency Limuru, let's just go in while the passage is open."

"..." Limulu looked at the child who was led up the stairs by several people, and suddenly said, "Well, wait for me."

After finishing speaking, he walked towards those people, tilted his head with a bright smile and said, "Sa, may I adopt him?"

Limulu squinted her eyes, tried her best to show a gentle smile and looked at the child, but she was carefully sizing him up in her heart.

"It should be right..." Limulu thought to himself, he suddenly wanted to take the other party in, not because of any kindness, but because he thought that he just needed to develop the power of diggers in the future, and at the same time, he saw the other party's fiery attitude. hair.

"Hey, my name is Rimuru, Rimuru Tempest, I'm a professor, if it's convenient, can you tell me your name?"

Red as fire, if memory serves me...

Limuru suddenly thought of Dr. Hartress who disappeared in this world.

"Great Sage, search my subconscious for information about Hateres, and find the name of Hateres before rebirth..."

"Understood... I was searching, and I found it. The name of Hateres when he was a child was Kakino Kuro."

Seeing the young man who suddenly appeared in front of him and said he wanted to adopt him, but was about the same height as him, the red-haired child was slightly taken aback, and immediately moved his eyes away, his voice was very soft, to be precise, very Gentle... so gentle that Limuru always feels very familiar: "I... my name is Huaye Kuro."

"Huano Jiulang? It's a very good name..." Limulu raised his hand and touched his head when he heard the words, and said with a light smile in his heart, "Interesting... unexpectedly... guessed it right."

……

In the distance, the man in the hood who was watching this scene still had a faint smile on his mouth, but... a strand of red hair seeped out of his hood and swayed in the wind.

"It's really a nostalgic scene, Rimuru... Teacher."

Chapter 133, Unpredictable, adult Hateres! (The title of the previous chapter was wrong)

The relationship between history and the future is usually connected by a hub, and the composition of this hub is called time.

What Amnitfis didn't tell Limulu was that he himself could enter the tomb at will, because... the most famous Observatory, where the observation center is located, was built in the deepest part of the tomb, and The observatory has a crack that goes straight to the ground——

However, this crack can directly lead to the deepest observatory, but it cannot reach the mining city that affected the past—of course, this is only part of the reason, and part of the reason is...

When the future and the past intersect, you can never know whether the future you changed changed the past, or the future you changed caused the past.

In the original book, the reason why there is Dr. Hatteris is precisely because Kano Kuro was adopted by Hatteris as a tool for smuggling and stealing the resources of the tomb after he walked out of the tomb as a survivor for the first time. In the end, he was betrayed by a companion named Locke, rescued by Hatteres and thrown into the Fairy Domain, traveled back to 30 years ago, lost his memory, was adopted by Noliji, changed his name to Hatteres and grew up .

And Hateres lost his memory, so he continued to fulfill his growth trajectory as before, recovering the children and stealing precious materials from the tomb, until he was betrayed by Locke, he would do everything together, regardless of everything. The price saved the original self and threw him into the goblin domain——

All of these are like destiny, making people feel the suffocation of time.

And when Limulu saw the red-haired child appearing in front of him, he already had this kind of thought—that is, the disappearance of Hartress, is it related to him?What will happen if you let the other party do nothing?

No, the result doesn't seem to change, because Hatteris in this historical time and space has disappeared... If you don't care about it, the other party will not meet Hatteris in the end, and thus return to the original plot—— It will only make death more miserable.

In that case, Hatteris would still disappear.
