Chapter 45: I Have Special Deciphering Skills

With a creak, the wooden door of the somewhat shabby room was opened, and there was a man and a woman inside. The woman's face was flushed and looked a little excited, while the man's hair was unkempt.

"Why are you two?"

Xu Nan was a little surprised.

He had just heard Green's voice outside, and thought he had encountered something exciting, but it turned out to be more exciting than he imagined. The man and woman in the room were not the Green couple, but Green and the Elfaria girl Irene who impressed him so much.

But it was only at this time that he noticed that both of them were holding a thick manuscript in their hands.

"It's a bit presumptuous to visit late at night..." Xu Nan touched his nose.

In fact, he was also on a whim, wanting to see what the reason for Green's promotion was, and ask him about something by the way.

"Don't be presumptuous, don't be presumptuous!"

Green stepped forward in surprise and joy, put the manuscript in his hand on the table, and closed the door.

"Boss, did you find anything good in the mage's tower?"

Xu Nan looked at the situation in the house, um, this is in the living room, not the bedroom, and the sofa is also neat and tidy...

Then he looked at Green with a weird look.

In the middle of the night, a lonely man and a widow... Are you fucking right about the script?

As expected of a green hat warlock!

"By the way, I'm going to make a cup of tea."

Green suddenly remembered something, turned around and ran into the kitchen, Xu Nan couldn't even shout.

"Long time no see, Lord City Master..."

Irene sat on the sofa with a smile on her face, with one of her legs raised, and there was still a little spring under the short animal skin skirt, but she didn't mind it.

Her big eyes kept rolling, as if she was thinking about the strange relationship between Xu Nan and Green.

After all, she and Green can be regarded as close friends for many years.

Xu Nan sat down calmly, and entered the chatting mode very casually.

"I'm asking Green to join me in the final act of the play..."

"It's at the Muchong Festival party."

"You should have heard of it?"

Irene proudly puffed out her small chest, and her crescent-like eyes looked like a happy cat.

Xu Nan showed a trace of curiosity.

Irene shrugged, seemingly dissatisfied, but still handed Xu Nan a manuscript on the table.

It was the Shameless Warlock.

Xu Nan shook her eyebrows, but said nothing.

He had read this book of course. In fact, when Irene first created it, he secretly scanned it. How can I say this? This is a very cold and treacherous story.

The plot twists are amazing, and the story is full of uncomfortable negative emotions, even sometimes sad and hopeless, but because of the charm of the plot, it can attract you to keep reading.

It is not an exaggeration to say that this thing is a masterpiece.

During the time when Xu Nan was wandering around the Mage Tower, with this work, Irene became famous in one fell swoop and became a hot figure in Wildfire City, where entertainment was scarce.

The work was a hit.

The most important thing is that in the current version, Irene uses an open ending, which is obviously beyond the cognition of the residents of this era. A lot of people are clamoring for a real ending.

Erin herself seemed intent on doing so.

She told Xu Nan that deep in her heart, there was a strong urge; that urge told her that maybe creating a stage play could more vividly show the true ending of the movie to everyone.

Just at this time, Master Barnes invited her to the Mu Dong Festival party, and would reserve a place for her in a stage play.

So, she created a pretty good script, but unfortunately there are no good actors in Wildfire City, so she simply went around to attract people, and Green, who is a close friend, naturally became the first option.

"Actually, we don't need many candidates. The key is exquisite line design...and a little bit of acting ability."

Irene proudly invited Xu Nan:

"The image of the city lord is very eye-catching, and it just fits a decent character in my stage play. Why don't you join us?"

"I heard from Mr. Barnes that after the Mudong Festival, you will be the city lord of Wildfire City. Before that, showing your face in front of the people in Wildfire City is also a way to show your closeness to the people."

Xu Nan smiled and chose to decline.

Just kidding, what is the identity of City Lord Xu? As early as on the earth, when Qianmang Shela was mixed with super idol trainees for his political achievements, he was the number one heartthrob. With a status like his, it would be too lousy for him to go to another world and show his face.

Ahem, the real reason is naturally not like this.

He looked into Irene's emerald eyes: "I'm more curious about what you went through when you created this story."

"I've seen this work, it's really great...it's like..."

Having said that, he deliberately paused, as if he didn't know what words to describe.

"It's like a miracle!" Irene happily added, "Yes, it's like a miracle."

"I don't know how I, an uneducated guy like me, wrote it, but it just appeared in my mind and in my pen. Maybe I should worship some god!"

Speaking of this, she herself was overjoyed: "It's a pity that I don't believe in any gods, so I should have written it myself."

Not necessarily.

Xu Nan sighed deeply.

He still wanted to get more information from Irene, but it was a pity that Green ran out of the kitchen excitedly, holding a pot of tea, and his posture was rather awkward. He was still explaining as he walked:

"My wife has returned to her mother's house, and I don't know how the tea I made..."

Irene yawned: "It must be bad."

"I'm sleepy, or is it the old rule that the next room is mine?"

Green corrected and said: "The next door belongs to Rexai. If you want to stay with me, you must share a room with Susan, or you can only condescend to the attic..."

Irene rolled her eyes: "I don't want to sleep with that nagging woman, I'll sleep in the attic!"

After all, she said goodnight to Xu Nan, like a happy kitten, carried her notebook up to the attic, and soon, there were slight footsteps upstairs.

Xu Nan took the black tea and took a sip, the taste was okay.

Green's expression became a little more serious: "Boss, you came here late at night, did you encounter some urgent business?"

Xu Nan shook his head, he pondered for a moment: "The thing about your upgrade before..."

Green smiled relievedly: "It's all a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding. My wife didn't betray me. I can confirm this."

"She is going back to her hometown for a while now, and I let her go back. I always feel that the nearest Wildfire City is not peaceful."

Xu Nan nodded slightly.

Although Green's caliber is different from that of Susan that day, it's better for him not to take care of this kind of housework.

The reason why he came to find Green on a whim was to ask some anecdotes about Wildfire City.

He didn't think the things Irene told him before were enough.

Barnes' performance is obviously abnormal, but the blood god is obviously sealed, so there can only be one result: someone else is behind the scenes!

In the past, no matter who is behind the scenes, Xu Nan will definitely sneak up first.

But now that there is an emerald mine, hehe, Xu Nan is going to fight him to the end.

After all, Green is an aborigine of Wildfire City and a member of Sebalon. Although his intelligence is not high, he has lived for so many years, so he has some extra channels of information, right?

After Xu Nan expressed his intention to come, Green fell into long thinking.

"Irene seems to have told you about the zombie swamp and the botanical garden."

"Wildfire City is such a big place. There are actually quite a lot of anecdotes and strange things, but there are very few really reliable ones."

Green thought hard: "I don't seem to have any impression."

Xu Nan reminded: "Is it related to demons, ghosts, otherworldly existences? God-like, evil gods and the like?"

Green slapped his thigh violently:

"Ghost Mother Forest!"

Xu Nan narrowed his eyes.

...

Fifteen minutes later.

Xu Nan stood in a guest room on Green's farm, watching the sudden blizzard outside the window, and the fireplace behind him was blazing.

Ghost Mother Forest.

It is a mysterious forest stretching between the ice field and the sea of ​​pearls.

She is connected to the backbone of the world to the north, and to the south is the famous port of Banduo in the north.

The route between Wildfire City and Banduo Port was actually developed along the edge of the Ghost Mother Forest.

Including the Green family's farm, it is actually on the edge of the ghost mother forest.

This is a mysterious virgin land that has not been cultivated by the civilized world.

In fact, according to Green, it's not that humans didn't try to get their hands on this fertile forest, but because they encountered mysterious resistance.

It is said that Stephen Sang's law enforcement team once tried to explore the ghost mother forest, but returned without success. There are even rumors that a legendary mage returned with serious injuries.

People who entered the core area of ​​the ghost mother forest never came back.

But its periphery is extremely peaceful, so peaceful that there is not even a trace of an evil creature.

It is said that a wounded god sleeps here.

He is accumulating strength, waiting for the day when the believers wake up and return.

As for the name of the ghost mother, it is no longer possible to test. Green believes that it was formed by the ancestors of Wildfire City.

In short, there must be mysterious power in the ghost mother forest.

"The plantation of Sebalon seems to have a close relationship with the Ghost Mother Forest."

"The blood-stained god is not the culprit, so another great demon king is needed."

"It looks like everything will be revealed at the Mu Dong Festival Gala."

Xu Nan thought quietly.

Of course he won't sit still, he has already sensed this well-arranged situation in advance.

From Barnes' anomaly, to Irene's and even the stage play, he could feel what the mysterious force was doing under the cover of the Blood God.

"This is Lao Tzu's city, I won't allow you to act wild!"

Xu Nan sneered.

Of course he needs to know what's in the Ghost Mother Forest; but he won't go deep alone like before.

That's what the protagonists of the poor ghosts in the web novels do.

"After all, I have special decryption skills."

He smiled slightly, opened Lost Paradise, and chose to enter 【MI7】.

"Give me a large stack of information about the Ghost Mother Forest and an estimated report on recent events that may happen in Wildfire City!"

With a big wave of Xu Nan's hand, he reported Emma's spy number in a dignified way:

"Don't worry about the money, just put it on my job number!"
