A man in the ark was forced to become a king

"Here, here you go, keep it for safe use!"

"This……"

Star Bear turned his head and frowned into a knot after seeing the shield.

Weird, was her first feeling.

The shield as a whole has a dark gold color and is engraved with patterns of unknown meaning. The most conspicuous ones are the vine-like things clinging to the surface of the shield.

The vines formed a circle, and the center of the shield was sunken, with a circular pit. She had never seen a shield of this style before.

Will this shape... really work?

"The golden tree is one of the best shields I have here. Even though it looks a bit strange, its function is not bad at all!"

Lin Lu threw the golden tree shield in her hand to Xing Xiong and motioned for her to observe for herself.

He is not lying. Even among the many collections of Great Blessings, the Golden Tree Shield is one of the best.

In the past, this was the weapon held by the guardians of the big tree. It performed ancient protective prayers and was indestructible. It was an iron wall like a city wall and was regarded as a standard by all the guardians of the golden tree.

The combat skill "Golden Return" engraved inside the shield has the effect of canceling spells and then returning it with golden power. It not only has super high defense capabilities, but can also use the enemy's power to counterattack.

No matter from which aspect, it is much better than the 'Prajna' in Xingxiong's hands.

Chapter 199 New Year, Prajna

If you want to use the 'Golden Style Return' on the golden tree shield, the hard condition is that you must have the power of the golden tree, otherwise there will be no way to activate the combat skills inside the shield.

For people in the world of Terra, the only way to achieve this requirement is to receive the blessing of a higher-level golden tree.

However, Star Bear is not opposed to the Golden Tree's blessing, nor does he mind having another member of the Golden Tree.

After experimenting with her new shield, she left the scene with the officers of the Guards Bureau with satisfaction. People from the urban construction department will be responsible for the next thing. With the efficiency of the Longmen Urban Construction Department, it will be around this time tomorrow , the damaged area can be restored to its original state.

Texas said hello to Angel Angel and left.

They had just delivered the last express delivery of the day and were rushing back to Penguin Logistics to attend the New Year's Eve banquet. Although the emperor was usually very stingy, he was also unambiguous when it came time to spend money, even though Penguin Logistics only had a station in Longmen. With only a few people left, he also prepared a rather sumptuous dinner on New Year's Eve.

Lao Li left happily after learning that no further trouble would come to him. He would go to the elevated highway to retrieve the car that had been towed away, and then go home to celebrate the New Year with his children. According to him, The children are still waiting for his New Year gifts and lucky money.

No one paid attention to the enemy who was fighting them just now, or in other words, everyone tacitly ignored her existence.

Lin Lu was very interested in deep-sea hunters and the situation inside the deep sea. After thinking about it, she decided to take this fool who wanted to go to jail home first.

There was no place to put her except the Golden Tree Courtyard.

Moreover, staying under the golden tree would also ensure that Hai He would not find her again.

It’s not too late to wait until tomorrow to deal with the rest of the matter.

……

Lin Lu walked in front, and Skadi followed behind, following closely, as if she was afraid of losing her.

As a prisoner, she was indeed very ambitious. She had no worries about her future and was even a little impatient. This was simply weird.

Seeing her expressionless and naive face, Lin Lu felt that her first impression of the group of deep-sea hunters was starting to go astray.

It was really hard for him to imagine how such a group of fools could hunt Hai Hei in the sea.

"You stay here first, and I will arrange for someone to deliver food to you. Haiji can't contact you here, so you can rest assured."

Pointing to the door of the small courtyard, Lin Lu signaled to Skadi that he could go in.

After the Golden Tree grew, a lot of the original courtyard was destroyed, so Wei Yanwu sent people to build a new courtyard. The newly built courtyard was quite large, much larger than the original area. It was divided into many small courtyards. Usually, Lani and the others all live in the hospital. No one lives here, which is perfect for housing this hunter from the deep sea.

He didn't impose any restrictions on Skadi, there was no need.

Not to mention that this guy didn't look like he was planning to run away. Even if he wanted to run away, he wouldn't be able to get out of the Golden Tree's perception range.

If you try to run away, you will be discovered without even leaving the courtyard and arrested on the spot.

"Oh."

Skadi responded and walked into the small courtyard very obediently.

This courtyard was designed for single living from the beginning, so it is not very spacious. It only has a one-bedroom and one-living room and a courtyard of more than 30 square meters.

After walking in, Skadi looked around curiously, and turned around to find that there was no one at the door.

Her gaze lingered on the door of the room for a moment, she hesitated, then found a place to sit on the floor against the wall, removed the sword from behind and leaned against it, her whole body relaxed.

The courtyard was paved with tiles. It was cold and hard to sit on, but Skadi felt very comfortable.

She took a deep breath and felt that the air was filled with a soothing smell.

Here, she doesn't have to worry about Hai Hei's problems, and her mind is free of the usual irritating auditory hallucinations. She can relax wholeheartedly. Golden light radiates from the trees, bright, soft and not dazzling, falling on her body. It was so warm that even the physical fatigue seemed to be swept away.

If she wasn't very hungry, she would even want to lie on the ground and have a good sleep.

Ever since she came to land, the past events of Agor, the never-ending battle, her dead comrades, and Hai Hei's prying eyes have entangled her, and she has yet to have a peaceful sleep.

In the eyes of many people, she is very strong, unreasonably strong, and her seemingly slender body has incredible power that is inconsistent with the appearance.

But she is also very weak. No matter how strong her body is, she cannot stop the erosion from her heart.

She was very tired and hadn't had a good rest for a long time.

Now, she seems to have found an opportunity to fulfill this little wish.

……

"It's over?"

The Governor's Mansion is right next door to the Golden Tree Courtyard, so it didn't take much effort to go back. As soon as she walked to the door, Lin Lu saw Wei Yanwu standing guard next to him.

A table had been set up in the courtyard, and Melina and the others were serving food from inside the house. Only Wei Yanwu was leaning against the door, doing nothing.

"It's done. The harvest is not small. You should be able to see the assessment report of the damaged area tomorrow."

Lin Lu glanced at him, a little disgusted.

He didn't know what was going on, but he felt that this man was 'aging' at an accelerated pace recently, and the majestic Lord of the Dragon Gate was almost turning into a Park Master, with no image at all.

Maybe he doesn't have much image at home. Outside he is the governor of Longmen, but at home he is just Wei Lao Er.

"A little loss is not worth mentioning, as long as there is a gain."

Wei Yanwu didn't ask what the harvest was, nor what happened at the scene.

Normally, he would definitely satisfy his curiosity, and at the same time, he would also think about the entire Longmen.

But today was an exception. On New Year's Eve, he didn't want to think too much about complicated things.

Listening to the laughter in the yard, he took out the cigarette case from his pocket, lit one, looked up at the exploding fireworks in the sky, and blew out a puff of smoke with a distant expression.

Lin Lu didn't want to think about why this guy suddenly had another convulsion, so she passed by and walked straight into the yard, where she found Nian sitting on a chair so bored that he was rocking back and forth.

"What's the matter?"

Nian raised his eyelids with a weak look, which was a bit out of tune with the lively environment and lacked the usual noise.

"I need you to fix something."

The Golden Tree stores a lot of knowledge, not only the spells used in combat, but also involves all aspects of knowledge, but those are just too complicated, and even Lin Lu, the master of the Golden Tree, cannot be proficient in them all.

Forging happened to be what he was not good at.

Once in the border area, he was responsible for killing people, and it was Xiu Gu who forged weapons for him.

When they came to Terra, the person in charge of equipment forging in the Golden Tree was Nian. If he wanted to repair Star Bear's shield, he could only ask her to do it.

Boom!

The triangular shield was drawn out of thin air and fell to the ground. Nian's eyes were also attracted by the sudden appearance of the shield.

"Can it be fixed?"

"This shield..."

Nian rocked the chair, moved closer, observed carefully, touched her chin, and showed a thoughtful expression, which was rare for her.

"something wrong?"

Seeing her like this, Lin Lu asked doubtfully, and then looked at the shield in her hand. Didn't it feel special?

"A little bit. Seeing this shield reminds me of something, and it has nothing to do with the shield itself."

Standing up from the chair, Nian grabbed a corner of the shield and lifted the heavy shield as if it had no weight.

"This shield...should be Prajna."

"That's exactly what it's called."

Hearing this, Lin Lu nodded. He heard Xing Xiong say that this shield was called Prajna. It was brought to Longmen from the Eastern Kingdom and it should have a long history.

"I'm not talking about its name. This shield is Prajna."

Nian was swinging the shield around, and then grabbed the handle, as if trying a more comfortable way to hold it.

I don’t know what she did. Not long after, the shield that had been dented by Skadi with her sword suddenly glowed with a faint layer of blood. The eyes of the ghost face in the middle of the shield lit up red, and the deformed metal seemed to have formed. Like life, it slowly squirms and returns to its original state little by little.

After a while, the entire shield was completely restored to its undamaged state and looked brand new.

During this process, Lin Lu sensed a very obscure aura from the shield, a bit like a god from the world of Terra.

When the repair was completed, the aura disappeared without leaving any trace, as if it had never existed.

"This thing is interesting."

Now Lin Lu really got interested. She tapped the shield with her fingers, and a trace of golden power seeped into it, but she felt nothing.

"What is Prajna?"

It doesn't matter if he doesn't see it. Isn't there someone he knows here?

"Prajna is a 'ghost' in the legend of the Eastern Kingdom. You can understand it as something similar to gods like us, but the essence is different."

"It can swallow up people's negative emotions. Its origin cannot be verified, and it is rarely seen."

"This shield is a 'Prajna', or in other words, it is a part of Prajna."

"Someone melted it into the shield and gave the shield extraordinary abilities. If I guess correctly, the shield after being integrated into Prajna can absorb the dark side of the holder's heart and seal it and store it."

"This thing should exist as a lock. Even if you don't bring it to me, it will recover from the damage on its own, but it may take a long time, unless its owner is willing to take the initiative to unlock its power and let it appear. Show the proper attitude.”

"But in that case, the power inside will be... Anyway, it is a very complicated thing. I remember this is the shield of the Guards officer?"

Nian put down her shield and asked curiously. It could be seen that although she knew the secret of Prajna, she had never seen it with her own eyes. Her palms kept touching the cold metal.

"It belongs to Hoshikuma."

After hearing what she said, Lin Lu also put his hand on it, but no matter how much he explored, he still didn't get any feedback. The power of gold was swimming inside the shield, and there was no trace of the power just now.

Perhaps seeing his doubts, Nian took the shield away with a smile and explained: "No need to look for it. You can't find it. The shield is Prajna, and Prajna is the shield itself. How can you find an apple inside an apple?"

"Moreover, this thing can only be used by women. If you want to find out its secret, you have to throw it into the golden tree."

"Only women can use it? Is it sexist?"

Lin Lu was speechless. He had never seen such a strange weapon before. He had seen many restricted weapons, but this was the first time he saw one that required gender.

"Because Prajna itself is a ghost derived from women. This involves the religious legends of the Eastern Kingdom. I am not too clear about it. Do you mind if I study it for a few days?"

As Nian spoke, he hid the shield behind his back. Apparently he was happy to see Lie Xin and didn't plan to return it right away.

"You can study it for two days, don't let anyone ruin it."

Anyway, seeing how happy Xing Xiong was when he picked up the new shield, and not saying he was in a hurry to take Prajna back, Lin Lu naturally had no need to be anxious.

However, there are still some warnings that should be given, lest this guy suddenly gets involved and breaks the shield, which would be very troublesome.

If it were anything else, even if it was a creature created by the gods, he would be able to make a new one to pay for it, but for Prajna, he really had no way of doing it, and he couldn't pay for it even if he wanted to.

"Okay, don't worry, I know what's going on!"

After getting permission, Nian grinned and patted his chest in assurance, which made Lin Lu look at her a few more times involuntarily.

"What are you two doing in the corner? Dinner is ready!"

Melina's greeting came from the other side of the table. Lin Lu looked away and responded quickly: "Here we come!"

In the spacious courtyard, at the round table, Lani, Melina, Xi, Ling and others sat down one after another. Wei Yanwu, who was leaning on the courtyard door smoking a cigarette, also walked over, and the two younger ones, Chen and Talulah, came to the left. Yiyi sat next to Mrs. Wenyue.

Theresia walked out of the house with two wine bottles in her hands, met Lin Lu's gaze, raised the wine bottles in her hands, smiled lightly, followed by a confused man who seemed to have just woken up. When W came over, she seemed to be still awake, rubbing her eyes, and she looked completely different from her usual appearance.
