Chapter 724 Despicable Hai Erbo

Being suppressed underground for thousands of years, anyone would feel unparalleled depression, so from the moment Maca saw Haierbo, he found that the other party's desire to speak was obviously extremely strong.

This is a matter of course. Rather, it is a miracle that this old guy has not gone mad after living through thousands of years of darkness.

Therefore, although Maca was a little upset when he heard it, he didn't stop the other party's words. After all, it's impolite to interrupt someone suddenly...

Ok! In fact, he just felt that it was more likely to immediately anger the old guy in front of him.

When the two sides have no problems, Maca has never liked to take the initiative to provoke - especially when there is no benefit for him.

Therefore, after Haierbo mentioned some things about Merlin's past, he casually chatted up a lot of messy topics. The content of these topics is naturally inseparable from the times he lived in, and most of them are related to magic.

Regardless of the old man's title of "the most influential dark wizard in history", it can be seen from what he said that at least as a wizard, he is indeed worthy of this status.

"But to be honest, this guy seems to be a bit like Greenwald..." Maca listened to the other party's nonsense casually, and thought to himself, "Oh no, based on his age, he should be Greenwald." Is De just like him?"

Probably because talking alone is a bit boring. If no one responds, there will be one or two more people in front of you, it seems that there is basically no difference from being buried underground.

So, as he talked, Hai Erbo stopped slowly by himself.

"...Young people today are exactly the same as in the past," Haierbo suddenly turned around, and the smile on his face faded a little. "When listening to the elders, don't they always lose patience quickly?"

For this,

Maca shrugged slightly.

"I think that I am patient enough among my peers," he said calmly, "If you are willing to talk, I don't mind listening for a while."

"Hmph..." Haierbo chuckled a few times, then shook his head, "You are listening, and you don't show any signs of impatience on the surface. But your soul tells me...Young man, you seem to be Are you absent-minded?"

When Maca heard this, her heart skipped a beat.

"Really?" he said, "Of course, maybe a little... No matter how you say it, your topics are not so far away to me! If you always listen to things that have nothing to do with you, I'm afraid it's not just 'young people', the elderly may not be able to listen to all of them, right?"

"Oh, there is some truth to that..." Haierbo nodded and said, "Although I have never liked Rowena's little girl's movies, there is one thing she said is right—in the face of the vast truth of the world , age is never the only criterion for distinguishing wisdom from talent."

He said, but looked at Maca again, and then continued: "For example, you—young man, your soul is very interesting, huge and stable, which has almost broken through the soul rules set for human beings. Conventional definition...I have to say, you are being favored by this world..."

His own soul is somewhat abnormal, this is a fact that Maca has gradually begun to know recently.

That's why he can easily use all the materials, all the crafting techniques... and even the magic wand that everyone owns; that's why he has the standard magic flame reaction phenomenon when using Floo powder; that's why he can't Cast the Apparition spell normally, but can only rely on his modified Portkey to wander around the world.

But this is the conclusion he gradually came to through a series of detailed studies, but what he didn't expect was that Hai Erbo in front of him could see something wrong at a glance.

I don't know anything else yet, but in terms of understanding the rules of the soul, this old guy is definitely far above Maca!

"Okay, that's enough talking, there's nothing you can do if you don't like to listen to the old man's nagging..." At this moment, Haierbo brushed off his robe casually, and said leisurely, "Then, since the child helped me For the sake of seeing the sun again, I will give you a special chance to choose—"

Having said that, he waved suddenly, and Maca's brows suddenly frowned. Because he discovered a very important truth that he seemed to have never thought of.

That is……

Just as Hai Erbo's dead branch-like hand dropped seemingly casually, an extremely familiar object immediately appeared beside him. Of course Maca knew that thing, because it was the ancient magic mirror that he had sealed in the center of the underground palace earlier!

"So...the floor-to-ceiling round mirror that Greenwald found was actually Haierbo's thing?"

Presumably, in Haierbo's tomb, there is a mural of this ancient mirror. Then, at least he should imagine the possibility that this mirror might be owned by Hai Erbo.

Might not be a sure thing, but there's always value as a hypothesis, no?

When Maca frowned and thought for a moment, Haierbo's finger had lightly touched the center of the magic mirror.

And just because of his point, the last soul rule rune that Maca used to seal the ancient mirror was dispelled and disappeared immediately, which made him startled.

However, the soul-sucking picture Maca had expected did not appear.

"Choose one! I only want the soul of one of you two, which one is fine—" Haierbo still had a smile on his face, and it could even make people feel a little kind, but what he said It is cruel.

"In terms of the deliciousness of the soul, I still like you better...the young man who is favored..." He said with a smile, "However, I can still give you a chance to choose, because you deserve it award."

Haierbo was still laughing, a surprisingly peaceful smile, but instead, people could clearly feel the full of malice hidden behind his smile.

He was like... like a cruel beast trying to tease its prey for fun before eating.

Behind Maca, Ensi suddenly felt a tingling sensation in his scalp. Because he found that he, who didn't understand the conversation between the two at all, could hear the words just now clearly, as if the other party directly conveyed the meaning to his head so clearly.

"Professor Maclean—"

However, at this moment, Maca suddenly relaxed his frowning brows again.

He still didn't look at Ensi behind him, but spread out his hands, moved his eyes that had been staring at the ancient mirror, and looked at Haierbo's old face calmly and naturally.

"Well, it's because of this that you are called 'despicable' Haierbo?" He nodded to himself, "Inducing 'food' to have negative emotions can make them more 'delicious' '...is that right?"

"Oh?"

After Hai Erbo heard it, the smile on his face faded a little, but it soon became bigger again.

"Are you trying to say—"

"It doesn't matter what I think, because isn't that what you intended?" Maca said with a smile on his face, "The two options you gave simply don't exist. , all you want is the process by which we are forced to make choices."

"Interesting, really interesting..." Haierbo raised his hands and patted it twice, appreciating Maka's words, "So, in the final analysis...do you choose or not?"

After talking so much with this old guy, Maca can be considered to have really understood him a little bit. If he has to say, the only thing he understands most now is that today's meeting will definitely not go well.

"Actually!" Maca still maintained the smile on his face, and said in a calm tone, "I never like to choose the options that others arrange for me, because... I am also a person who likes to ask questions for others. people!"

Before he finished speaking, the staff he held in his right hand from the very beginning suddenly burst into an ice-blue radiance, and the cooling rune took shape in an instant.

Just in the blink of an eye, the absolutely terrifying low temperature covered hundreds of meters around him in the blink of an eye, turning all the mud and rocks outside the tomb passage here into pale white frozen soil.

But in the next second, Maca's hand holding the staff trembled suddenly, and the cooling rule rune collapsed silently.

"Amazing, young man, you are indeed astonishing!"

Haierbo applauded again, and it was obviously much more than before. The applause echoed in the tomb passage that had turned completely white.

"Unexpectedly, the initial cooling beam condensed by the power of rules is not your highest understanding of rules. However, what surprised me the most is——"

As the old guy said, he looked over Maca's shoulder and looked at the position behind him.

That's right, just before Maca built the cooling rule rune, he activated the Portkey that had already been handed over to Ens.

And now, the little guy has probably returned to the gate of Hogwarts safely, right?

"Speaking of accidents, it's pretty much the same on my side!" Maka glanced at her right hand that had stopped trembling at this time, and said thoughtfully, "Soul rules are indeed hard to guard against. It's just that it surprised me even more. The most important thing is—Your Excellency Haierbo, you clearly know that my soul is very 'abnormal', and you also clearly know that I have understood some soul rules..."

As he spoke, he suddenly paused on the ground with his staff, and raised his gaze on his right hand again, gently falling to Haierbo's sleeve and the hem of his robe.

"...Is it really enough to use such a little force?"
