Chapter 558 Half man, half woman


Chapter 558 Half Man, Half Woman

Reni said that [Gray Mist Remains] only has a gray world and endless monsters.

I never said there was a town in it.

There is also a "Black Rose Tavern" full of magical atmosphere.

The origin of this tavern is not even mentioned in the entire inheritance of the Opera God family.

Ji Xuncai became very interested.

The architectural style is also very ancient.

The Gothic-style spiers are not as sharp as today's times, but have many more artistic decorative patterns.

Ji Xun recognized this as the style of the early Talen Empire.

The space in this relic is a bit like a dream world. If the consciousness is strong enough, it can create things out of thin air, such as the pocket watch in Ji Xun's own hand.

In other words, this town and tavern are most likely formed by fragments of some very ancient consciousness.

There is no eternal matter in the universe, and the same is true for consciousness.

This means that the being who created this town has a consciousness that is beyond imagination.

Ji Xun only thought of one possibility.

That is Emperor Lanlingst.

The stone bricks at the door of the tavern were wet due to the fog, and there was a pot of black roses at the entrance.

Ji Xun carefully observed the environment, and at the same time silently analyzed the preferences of the "consciousness" who created this tavern.

After entering the door, you can see the whole picture of the pub at a glance.

The simple wooden seats are no different from ordinary pubs.

But the drinkers are not human beings, but all kinds of weird monsters.

The pig-headed man who eats like a mountain of fat, the short and greedy dwarf, the fire demon with two horns, the bearded old man with six arms, the toad monster with flowing poisonous gas, and the grumpy bearman

Weird and strange form.

They don’t look easy to mess with.

The monsters didn't take action, and Ji Xun didn't want to cause trouble. He glanced at them and didn't look at them again.

He looked at the drinkers with great caution.

But the gazes of the drinkers seemed a little unscrupulous.

“Hey, here comes a very strange guy.”

“Yes. But Rose Town hasn’t seen anyone new in a long, long time.”

"Hey, I hope this new guy can live longer."

"."

The strange thing is that Ji Xun understood clearly the devil's language.

His thoughts were racing, analyzing all the information captured by his senses.

Is it dangerous?

Am I weird?

Of course Ji Xun knew there was danger.

But it was because of this feeling of walking on the blade that he looked forward to it more and more.

Looking at the pocket watch, there is still enough time.

Ji Xun walked to the bar of the tavern like a regular customer and instinctively chose a high stool leaning against a pillar. Because this position has the best view, you can see most of the scene in the tavern and the entrance, and there is no room behind you for someone to sneak attack you.

It was not a deliberate choice of position, but his cautious habit.

However, just at this sitting, the more than ten monster drinkers in the tavern all looked very strange.

For a moment, their gazes on Ji Xun became cautious, as if they were afraid of touching some taboo.

Those monsters didn't say anything, they just drank and drank. Even if they whispered to each other, no one could hear them clearly.

Ji Xun didn't understand why the attitudes of these monsters changed as soon as he sat down.

Looking at the lizard bartender, what I saw was a teasing expression of "waiting for the show to begin."

But the bartender didn’t say anything, he just said: “What do you want to drink?”

Ji Xun glanced at the wine list and asked directly: "What kind of wine is there in the store?"

Since these drinkers knew that he was new here, there was no need to pretend to be experienced.

The lizard bartender reported the wine list: "[Dream God's Dew], [Angel's Kiss], [Demon Tiani], [Wind Dragon Soul]."

It seems It’s similar to a tavern in the real world, with fancy drink names.

When Ji Xun heard these names, he wanted to find something special among them.

But he couldn't hear it, so he casually picked one that sounded pleasing to his ears: "How do you sell [Dragon Soul of Wind]?"

The bartender said expressionlessly: "Half a ninth-level soul in one cup."< br>
“.”

Ji Xun listened and realized something was wrong.

Drinking in this pub is so outrageous?

Trading currency is the soul?

Also, what kind of wine is this worth half of a ninth-level soul?

The feeling of outrageousness came over me instantly.

It can be outrageous and return to outrageousness.

Ji Xun was really interested, and he asked: "Can I pay on credit?"

A ninth-level soul is of great value to others, but he happens to have one.

The red archbishop whom Griffith killed before is sealed in the soul-sealing relic of the [Soul-Sending Pottery Figurine].

But the things are outside and I haven’t brought them in, so I can only pay them on credit.

Seemingly not afraid of Ji Xun's default, the bartender nodded readily: "Of course. Just sign the contract and pay on time."

"Okay, have a drink!"

Ji Xun made a big move and wanted to try it.

The bartender turned around and opened the wine cabinet, revealing various large and small bottles and jars.

Although there are no labels, I don’t know what is in those bottles.

But Ji Xun took a special glance and saw some souls of Warcraft swimming in some translucent wine bottles.

Dragon, Beamon, Gryphon, Three-Eyed Nightmare, Demon King Spider, Hell's Three-Headed Dog, Fallen Hydra

This glance once again shocked Ji Xun's heart.

It feels like watching an old man make medicinal wine in his previous life. If I read it correctly, these jars are actually filled with various mythical creatures, many of which Ji Xun has only seen in ancient books!

At this moment, he finally understood why the price of this wine was so outrageous.

If the materials in front of you are really what you think, they are really worth the price.

And when Ji Xun looked at the lizard bartender with an understatement, he suddenly realized that this bartender might be the "weapon spirit" of the entire relic.

The bartender took out a dark green bottle and poured out a glass of "Wind".

Yes!

It’s the wind!

Ji Xun could see with the naked eye that what was pouring out of the bottle was not wine, but the law of the wind element that was visible to the naked eye!

While he was shocked, the wine glass was already handed to him by the bartender.

While handing over the wine glass, Ji Xun clearly sensed that a contract had been signed.

It is as if the soul has been pawned to the devil. It is a sense of restraint that the soul cannot be redeemed unless a sufficient price is paid.

"Hehe. What a powerful method."

This is the first time Ji Xun has seen this way of signing a contract.

In other words, if this guy is malicious towards me, I have no chance to resist.

Thinking of this, he didn't have any scruples and directly picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

Originally, I wanted to taste the taste first, but I didn’t want the wine to get into my throat and go down smoothly.

Ji Xun only felt his throat feel cool for a moment, and at the same time his body seemed to be flying, light and airy, as if he was drunk.

The taste of this glass of wine gave Ji Xun an indescribable complexity.

However, this is not the most surprising thing.

Because, enlightenment appears.

"You took the 'Psychic Medium·Wind Dragon Soul', your mental power +200, your mental power training gain +1000%, lasting for 10 days; wind element affinity +15"

" "This"

Seeing this, Ji Xun was really shocked.

Although he guessed that the wine was a treasure, he did not expect it to be so outrageous.

You must know that his current mental power value on the panel is only over one thousand, and it suddenly increased to two hundred?

Not to mention the elemental affinity has skyrocketed.

This suddenly saves Ji Xun years of hard work!

What's going on?

This wine, this pub, this town

What's going on!

At this moment, Ji Xun suddenly realized that the people in the Xishen family may have misjudged the role of [Grey Mist Relic].

Or perhaps, Reni's rank is not yet qualified to use this relic correctly.

And because I am the eighth level, I can barely enter the tavern?

Ji Xun thought of many possibilities.

But no matter what, with just this glass of wine, he can be sure that this is a treasure trove of inheritance!

A treasure trove of collected souls!

Magicians must practice spiritual power, and this relic fits perfectly. No wonder this thing has been passed down by the four knight families.

You must know that the king's knights during the Talon period were all genuine god-level beings. How could it be that a treasure passed down from a top fighting family could be as simple as peeling off some soul fragments!

After Ji Xun drank, he felt light-headed, but his thoughts were very clear.

After drinking, he got huge benefits, which made him instinctively look at the wine cabinet.

At this moment, Ji Xun had a strong expectation in his heart. If he drank all the wine in the cupboard, would he be able to ascend from the same place?

Considering that he still had half a ninth-level soul, he was really eager to give it a try.

However, before he could speak, the huge tavern suddenly became quiet.

Ji Xun also instantly became alert.

Although he was drinking, he was always observing his surroundings.

At this moment, he found that all the monsters in the tavern were looking towards the door. And there was deep fear and awe in that look. I wanted to look at it, but I didn't dare to look directly.

This makes people suspect that the big BOSS in the tavern is about to appear. Ji Xun didn't want to offend certain beings, so he deliberately lowered his gaze and looked at the door.

His position was just facing the gate. Even if he didn't deliberately observe it, he found that a ghost carriage burning with soul fire gradually appeared in the mist outside the gate.

The carriage stopped at the door of the tavern, and the unusually burly coachman got out of the car and stood next to the carriage. After waiting for a moment, a graceful figure stepped out of the carriage.

Looks like a woman.

This is the first humanoid existence Ji Xunlai has seen in this relic world.

After the woman got off the carriage, she walked straight into the tavern.

Ji Xun didn't want to look directly at her at first, but looking at the black skirt on her body, she felt familiar inexplicably.

And what a coincidence, that woman actually walked directly towards his position?

At the same time, Ji Xun also quietly discovered that in addition to awe, all the drinkers in the tavern had expressions of watching a good show.

As if they knew what was going to happen.

"Is it possible that he really came after me?"

Ji Xun was shocked. Although he was attacked several times along the way, those were monsters who were confused.

And in this tavern, all the monsters seemed to be normal and rational.

Now it seems that they are all monsters.

Not without hostility.

On the contrary, the lord usually eats the prey first.

Thinking of this, Ji Xun was already prepared for the worst.

But just with this thought, the visitor noticed it, and there was a chuckle that seemed to penetrate people's hearts.

At the same time, an extremely gentle female voice said: "You took my seat."

In an instant, Ji Xun understood everything!

No wonder when I was sitting in this position, both the bartender and the drinker had strange expressions.

So it turns out that I sat in the boss’s fixed seat?

Ji Xun didn't hear any malice in his tone. He was about to get up when he heard the man say again: "Forget it. Just sit there. It's rare for a new customer to come to the Rose Tavern."

As he said, She added: "If you don't mind, just buy me a drink."

The voice was extremely soft, as if it were the most pleasant words at this time, and it was impossible to refuse.

The wine is expensive, but Ji Xun knows that this is an exchange.

Use a glass of wine in exchange for breaking some mysterious rules in the tavern.

He was not stingy and responded politely: "Of course. It's my honor."

Finding that the other party was not malicious for the time being, he calmly raised his eyes and looked at the people in front of him. Someone comes.

A black skirt that covers the buttocks perfectly outlines the entire exquisite figure.

Just from her figure, she gives off a sense of overwhelming beauty.

However, this made Ji Xun even more confused.

Because of this temperament and outfit, he felt familiar.

Looking up from the slender neck, a face that is not suffocating comes into view.

However, what amazed Ji Xun was not this stunningly beautiful face, but because he had seen it before!

This person in front of me is the Emperor Lanlingster whom I met in the extra-dimensional space of "The Bandits of Black Crow Castle" in the southern continent!

“Sure enough!”

The moment Ji Xun saw the woman in black dress in front of him, all his previous suspicions were confirmed.

The person in front of me is the witch Lanlingst!

The great emperor peeled off part of his consciousness and left it in this relic.

Thinking of this, Ji Xun couldn't help but get excited.

You must know that this is different from the fictional scene in an extra-dimensional space. What is in this relic is the consciousness that the emperor personally stripped off!

In a sense, this is the other side of the Emperor himself!

As if after hundreds of thousands of years of contact, Ji Xun recognized the great emperor who once stood at the top of the entire plane, giving Ji Xun a strong sense of curiosity and expectation.

The woman in the black dress opposite looked at Ji Xun's stiff gaze for a moment, and chuckled: "You seem to know me?"

As she said that, she sat on the high stool next to her. .

Ji Xun said bluntly: "Are you Mr. Lanlingster? I was lucky enough to meet you once in another dimension."

He estimated that Lan Lingster, who was in the witch state, had not yet ascended the throne as emperor. How should he be called?

Sir is definitely not suitable. Miss? lady?

Finally, I spoke to Mr.

The bartender did not ask the woman in the black dress what she wanted to drink. He seemed to be very familiar with her and poured a glass of scarlet wine directly.

The woman in the black dress only smiled faintly: "Oh."

She did not deny her identity.

Ji Xun was also in awe.

At the same time as they were communicating, the bartender was pouring wine. He couldn't help but look at the glass of red wine again, wondering what effect this wine would have.

But thinking that I had no money to drink, I became even more hesitant.

However, in the eyes of the woman in the black skirt opposite, she had no secrets at all.

The woman in the black dress chuckled and said: "You are quite brave. You dare to come to the Rose Tavern to drink for the first time. However, your current rank cannot bear the second glass of soul wine."

"."

Ji Xun narrowed his eyes as he listened, suddenly realizing that there was such a way.

He also realized that this person was giving him a kind reminder, and sincerely thanked him: "Thank you for the reminder."

The woman in the black skirt smiled nonchalantly and took it. He took the goblet handed by the bartender and took an elegant sip.

This scene also surprised the drinkers in the tavern.

Is this new guy okay?

You must know that no one has sat in that seat, but anyone who has sat in this seat has never seen him come to the tavern for the second time.

This location is also the biggest taboo of this Rose Tavern.

The tavern was eerily quiet.

It was like the monsters in the tavern didn't dare to look directly at the woman in the black dress, but they looked at the newcomer like a monster.

On the contrary, Ji Xun didn't feel anything. He looked at the witch-like Emperor Lanlingst in front of him and couldn't help but say: "Your beauty is as unparalleled as the legend says."

Before, it was just a glimpse in the extra-dimensional space, but now I can actually sit in front of me and see it clearly.

This kind of charm, like the bright sun, really makes Ji Xun feel like he can't take his eyes away from his current state of mind.

There is no desire, just a sincere praise of the ultimate beauty in the world.

The beautiful woman in the black dress turned her eyes smartly and pursed her lips, "Oh? Really."

As she said that, she looked at Ji Xun and said, "You're not bad, either."
< br>"???"

Ji Xunyi didn't think anything of it at first, thinking it was a normal reply.

However, I paused for a moment, thinking deeply about it for a moment.

I praise you for your beauty, but what do you mean by "you are also pretty"?

Am I beautiful too?

Looking at his astonished expression, the woman in the black dress raised her eyes slightly and said with a smile: "Didn't you look in the mirror?"

Reminded by this, Ji Xun realized What.

With his thoughts together, he looked at the goblet in front of him, and his own face was reflected.

The self in the cup is half a handsome man in a suit and half a gorgeous woman in a black dress.

Originally, any half of it is normal.

Can be spliced ​​together to look like a "monster"!

No wonder those drinkers looked at him with wrong expressions before. Ji Xun's own form was weirder than those animal forms.

The woman in the black skirt once again saw everything and said with a smile: "Oh, it seems that this is the first time you have seen the appearance of your soul."

"."

Ji Xun then realized that this was his soul.

I also figured it out.

The witch aberration pollutes the soul. This makes it more intuitive to see that it is already so serious.

After being slightly surprised, Ji Xun accepted this fact.

The woman in the black skirt seemed to notice something and gave him another meaningful look.

Ji Xun looked at his pocket watch. He didn't have much time to stay in this space.

The woman in the black skirt glanced at his movement of looking at the time. She didn't know what she thought of, and shook her head with a chuckle.

Ji Xun also keenly observed the other party's reaction and was vaguely aware of what the other party might be hinting at.

Since this person did not show any hostility, he boldly asked for advice: "Do you think my 'pocket watch' has the wrong time?"

He asked the question that concerned him most directly.

This is the most important reason related to his life and death.

Although he was sure that he had not miscalculated the time, he did not rule out that some mysterious power affected his senses.

If you can’t detect it yourself, the best way is to ask directly.

The woman in the black dress took a sip of wine, her beautiful eyes seemed to see everything, and the smile on her lips became brighter, "You are very sharp, thoughtful, and careful enough. I haven't seen you like this in a long time. Interesting people.”

When Ji Xun heard this praise, he didn't feel that he was very good.

In front of this great emperor, everyone will pale.

Obviously, this statement has a deeper meaning.

Sure enough, the woman in the black dress suddenly changed the subject and asked, "But, do you think time flows here?"

When Ji Xun heard this, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

He suddenly realized that some of his methods might have been wrong from the moment he entered the space!
