Matthew looked at Zero in astonishment, unable to believe what she said. "What did you say, three months? How is this possible? If it had been three months, I would have starved to death."

Zero walked around Matthew twice dissatisfied and said angrily:

"It's rare and strange. This is where the giants used to worship their gods and ancestors. The air here is filled with all kinds of energy. You only need to breathe to maintain basic survival."

"Of course, if you want to enjoy delicious food, you have to think of a way."

As expected of the race that ruled the plane back then, they could survive even if they drank air.

Matthew could sense that the elements and energy here were indeed abundant without turning on the detection magic, but he didn't expect it to be so abundant.

Drinking the northwest wind means having enough food. This may be a good place.

Three months have passed just by reading the book once. This is too...

Wait, three months!

Matthew's expression changed instantly.It would be okay if he was absent from the territory for a short period of time, but something would definitely happen if he was absent for a long time.

After a long time, Sistini couldn't suppress the others.Even if she can unite everyone, she can't stop external erosion.

Looking at Matthew's face, Zero certainly knew what he was thinking.

Zero sighed softly and said a little lonely: "You are a magician. You must have good perception of space and time. Can you sense the position of the outside world?"

Matthew shook his head.

Zero said helplessly: "It's not just the position in space that cannot be detected, but also time."

"Those who call themselves Vanir gods think that they offer a batch of sacrifices every ten years. In fact, they only offer sacrifices once every 500 years."

Matthew instantly realized that the time flow rate here was different from that in the outside world, it was 1:50.

In other words, his three months were converted into less than two days.

Matthew thought about it, and if he was not there, Sistini should be able to stabilize the situation within three months.Calculated, he can stay here for 4500 days, which is not a short period of time.

This time was enough for him to organize the books in the library.

No matter what, I have to leave after 12 years.

Matthew smiled and said: "Zero, I will be here with you for 12 years, and then I have to leave. If I can't find a way to get insurance, I plan to leave alone."

"What about your wife?"

"If there is no particularly sure way, we can only let her stay."

Although this answer did not satisfy Zero completely, she knew that this was Matthew's bottom line, so she had no choice but to nod.

She grabbed Matthew's arm and whispered: "Then you can't hide in the library or practice in seclusion every day. You have to chat and play games with me."

"it is good!"

Matthew smiled and said, "I don't need to practice. I'll be in the library every morning and stay with you in the afternoon."

"What about tonight?" Zero asked excitedly.

"At night, if Surante doesn't practice, of course I have to accompany her!"

"Then if she is practicing, can you use the time you spend with your wife to spend time with me?"

Matthew wanted to refuse, but looking at Zero's cautious expression, he couldn't bear it.

"Let's talk about it then. I will definitely accompany you as long as I have time."

Zero didn't give Matthew a chance to regret, and stretched out his little finger to signal Matthew to hook up with her.

Matthew reached out and hooked her little finger with it.

Zero's body temperature is about the same as that of humans, and her skin is also made of high-quality bionic materials. If her pupils weren't slightly different from humans, there really would be no difference.

It is indeed the masterpiece of Poseidon, much better than the puppets he made.

Their fingers hooked together, and Zero happily pulled hard.

Ma Xiu looked at Ling with a smile on his face, and suddenly felt a sharp pain in his fingertips. His finger was suddenly pulled off by Ling.

Although Matthew's body is not as strong and powerful as that of a warrior, he is still a strong man with a combat career level of 9 and a basic attribute level of 18. His physical strength is far superior to that of ordinary people.

If you want to break his fingers, you must have the strength of a thousand pounds.

However, Zero just pulled Matthew's finger off with a casual tug. This power must be too terrifying.

Matthew was sweating profusely in pain. He did not scream, but quickly grabbed his little finger that fell on the ground, gritted his teeth and asked, "Do you have any way to treat it?"

Zero nodded hurriedly and said repeatedly: "Follow me!"

The fingers are connected to the heart, and it hurts even if the finger is cut, not to mention that it is pulled off by the root, so the pain is naturally worse.

Matthew's lips were sore and his teeth were white, and he was breaking out in cold sweat.

Seeing Zero's guilty expression, Matthew couldn't say much and could only lament that she was too powerful.

Zero pulled Matthew to a small room, put his hands and fingers together and pressed them into the holy pool.As soon as he stuffed it in, Matthew let out an earth-shattering scream.

How could his half-black and half-white physique enjoy the infiltration of holy water?

But Zero saw that Matthew's wounds were healing and refused to let go.

After five minutes of hellish suffering, Matthew felt as if he had been fished out of water, his whole body drenched in cold sweat.

He breathed heavily and looked at the roots of his fingers, which were completely the same as before. He couldn't help but sigh at the healing properties of this holy water.

Zero didn't dare to look at Matthew. She took a delicate bottle and filled it with a bottle full of strange water of life and handed it to Matthew.

"I'm sorry, I didn't control my strength just now."

Matthew took Zero's bottle and said softly: "It doesn't matter, I just didn't expect that your power control accuracy is so poor. You can't even control your power, how can you live your life?"

Zero's face instantly turned red and he whispered: "This is not usually the case. In the past, I had very stable control over my power. Even if I could stack nine eggs and dance, there would be no problem."

"Since the beginning of this year, I, I...my shelf life is up."

Zero's voice was soft, but full of helplessness.

Matthew was slightly shocked. Of course he knew what Zero meant.Puppet dolls also have a shelf life, and problems will gradually occur after the shelf life.

For example, there will be intermittent loss of control, and it will become more and more frequent.

This time it was to pull off Matthew's fingers, and next time he might be to twist off Matthew's head while holding Matthew in his arms.

Zero slowly raised his head and said helplessly: "Matthew, stay away from me these days. When you leave, you can go on your own."

Matthew said categorically: "No, I must take you away. If anyone in this world can save you, it must be me."

Zero's body trembled slightly, he looked at Matthew in disbelief, and asked quietly: "I am a doll made by Lord Poseidon, do you think you can crack it?"

"Maybe not, but at least we should try."

Matthew solemnly said: "I am the best alchemist in the Claire Empire, and Lord Poseidon's alchemy and puppet making are just hobbies. Maybe I can help you?"

Zero hesitated for a few seconds, nodded vigorously, and said softly: "Before I lose control completely, I am willing to try, but now I don't want to take the risk."

"If you are really an alchemist, then I will take you to a good place."

Matthew was a little curious, did Poseidon have anything specially prepared for alchemists?

Zero subconsciously reached out to grab Matthew's hand, but when she was halfway out, she suddenly remembered that she could no longer fully control her power and quickly retracted it.

Matthew laughed heartily, grabbed Zero's hand, and said loudly: "Since it is a precious relic left by Poseidon, I am really curious, please take me there!"

Ling didn't expect that Matthew would dare to grab her hand, and was caught off guard by Matthew's squeeze.

She wanted to break free but was afraid of breaking Matthew's hand with too much force, so she had no choice but to let Matthew hold his white and tender hand.

She lowered her head and walked forward quickly, leading Matthew to the left area of ​​the fifth floor.

Opening a heavy door, a new world appeared in front of Matthew.

There are various rare alchemical materials here, all left behind by the Warner Protoss and the Giants.

In addition, there are various books and crystal balls recording video images.

Although Zero comes here often, according to the iron law that puppet dolls are not allowed to learn alchemy, she knows nothing about these things.

She wanted to remind Matthew a few words, but when she saw that Matthew was already squatting on the ground and looking at the mechanical device, she knew there was no need to say anything.

It seemed that Matthew was indeed an excellent alchemist, and she didn't need anything more from a layman.

Ling quietly closed the door from the outside and slipped away quickly.When she went downstairs, the temperature of her power furnace was still a little chaotic.

She didn't understand why she had these emotions, a touch of warmth mixed with inexplicable irritability, and a bit of worry about gains and losses.

It's really annoying. Lord Poseidon clearly didn't give her such complex emotions when he made her.

She took small steps to reach the second floor, and happened to see Surante walking out of the meditation room.

"Miss Ling, thank you." Surante had a smile on his lips, and his mood was indescribably beautiful.

Although she has not achieved a direct breakthrough, her strength has increased a lot in the past three months.

She has completed all preparations to break through to a high-level profession, and will launch the final sprint after taking a short rest.

This time she was going to stay in the quiet room for a long time, and she wanted to persuade Matthew to go back to Rundebell first.

Surante's smile infected Zero, and she laughed too.

The two chatted for a while, and Surante asked about Matthew's situation, and was a little worried after hearing Zero's answer.

"It's been three months since we came out. If we don't go back, I'm afraid there will be problems."

Seeing Surante and Matthew's similar concerns, Ling smiled and explained.

After learning that he could still practice for more than ten years, Surante was also very happy.

"It's a pity that there is no food and wine here, otherwise we could have a good celebration."

"As for wine, here is the last barrel of wine left by Lord Poseidon. Although 70 years have passed, it should still be drinkable. There is really nothing we can do about food."

How can any food be stored for such a long time?

"Don't worry, Matthew is a magician. He can make magic tables. Although the texture of the food is a bit weird, it tastes very good."

After saying goodbye to Zero, Surant came to the fifth floor. She stood at the door and looked at Matthew who was concentrating on studying alchemy, her eyes gradually softened.

Matthew rarely practices by himself. He becomes stronger by relying on the experience provided by contract girls like them, rather than by practicing on his own.

But there is only one exception, and that is alchemy.

Alchemy must be continuously accumulated, explored, and experimented by oneself.

Only this skill cannot be made stronger by absorbing experience.

Surante observed at the door for a while, and when he was about to leave, Matthew slowly turned around and saw Surante leaning against the door with a smile on his lips.

He stood up slowly, walked to the door and took Surante into his arms.

They had cooled down after that half-hour rush until now.

Although Matthew has regarded Surante as his beloved wife, he still shows too little care for her.

Matthew held Surante's hand and said softly: "Let's go down together. I haven't given my wife a good hug yet."

"I, I'm not, I'm just your maid and secretary-general."

"That would be troublesome. If you are not my wife, sooner or later we will get tired of each other, and maybe I will forget you in a corner."

Surante lowered her head and said nothing. Matthew's meaning was very clear, which was to force her to admit.

She asked quietly: "Do you really think so? I am from a humble background, and there is an upper limit for nobles to marry wives. When I take up your quota of wives, you still have to drive me away. Rather than that, it would be better. ..”

Matthew didn't give Surante a chance to continue speaking. He covered Surante's worries with his lips slightly roughly.

After a suffocating deep kiss, Matthew grabbed Surante's thin shoulders and stared at her until she completely fell into the abyss-like eyes before slowly saying:

"The earl can marry four legal wives, which is enough. Besides, I will become the emperor in three years. A great emperor can have twelve wives. This is a legal right."

Surante's pretty face turned red, of course she knew what Matthew was thinking.

She didn't know when she fell. Was it the moment Matthew appeared in the undersea city, or an earlier moment?

But that doesn't matter anymore.

Matthew values ​​​​more long-term companionship, and the explanation that is more in line with his personality should be that she has been with her day and night for more than two years.

Surante slowly closed his eyes, leaned close to Matthew's ear, and whispered softly:

"Take me down and go back to our own room."
