Chapter 2892 Luke’s Persistence

The atmosphere was so good that even Shallan stopped glaring. The only person who was risqué was the silent Alice.

But that's not important.

After about half an hour of silence, Alice finally spoke, but what she said was: "Please give me some time."

Since she needs time, there's no harm in giving it to her. Anyway, I won't go to the Demon Realm for the time being, and even if I go, if I find out about Xi Lan's ending, I can still decide whether to tell her or not.

This is the benefit of taking the initiative.

"Since you want some time to think about it, you might as well talk about it later when we meet." I smiled and cupped my hands: "I have some private matters, and it's not convenient to talk to others, so I'll take my leave now."

After that, he took Shilok and Di Ruigi and returned to the depths of the forest again.

This time, no one was following.

When I returned to the original place and just stopped, Di Ruiji asked me: "Do you really want to help her?"

"Just on my way."

"You are taking a risk," Di Ruiji said seriously: "Since Xi Lan sought revenge on that woman and has not come back, his name must be well known in the devil world by now."

"Is it that serious?" I asked curiously, "Is it possible that the devil is controlled by that woman?"

"Although she missed, she's not far off," Di Ruiji said: "That woman has been operating in the demon world for hundreds of millions of years, and now she is already covered in secrets. If you don't mention the name Xi Lan, that's fine. If you do, And, it will definitely attract her attention, and by then, you will definitely be in danger."

Pouting, I said, "Then why don't I mention this name again before I leave? I'm leaving soon anyway, and she will definitely not be able to catch up with me."

"That's not necessarily the case." Di Ruiji shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Since this world has magic, it also has things that can invalidate magic. You can use the portal to leave the devil world, and that woman can also use it. The magic circle that forbids portal magic renders your magic ineffective."

Frowning slightly, I thought for a while and said, "If it doesn't work, then just run. Anyway, she can't spread this kind of magic all over the planet."

"That makes sense." Di Ruiji nodded, and then asked: "But can you escape? Don't forget, she is an apostle, an apostle like us, unless you can escape from under our noses. , otherwise it would be impossible to escape from her clutches."

"Is it so thrilling!" I couldn't help but exclaimed when I heard this.

"It may be several times, dozens, or hundreds of times more dangerous than this!"

"Then I'm not going?" I asked tentatively.

"Although Luke is a boring gourd, once he makes up his mind, he must realize it," Di Ruigi recalled: "I think back then, he got a strange black stone in the universe, and the energy contained in it was so huge. It is comparable to a small planet. Once the energy explodes, the explosive force is enough to leave a large rift in the demon world. At that time, we all advised Luke to give up research, lest he accidentally make a wrong step one day. Or maybe it destroyed its stability and caused him to die on the spot. But from the beginning to the end, this guy never listened to our advice and insisted on studying the black stone thoroughly. Hehe, during those days, we My daily routine was to go to Luke's laboratory to see if he was dead or not after waking up. This routine lasted for a long, long time."

"Did that stone explode?" I asked curiously.

"It didn't explode," Di Ruiji replied with a slightly disappointed tone: "We always thought it would explode, but it didn't do what we wanted until the end."

"Uh, you seem disappointed?"

"It's natural," Di Ruiji said, "I don't have a good relationship with him. At that time, in order to study the reaction mechanism of stones in different environments, he secretly stole a large bottle of plague from me at night. This kind of unreported And the act of taking it made me very angry."

For some reason, the wonderful picture of Di Ruiji waking up and finding that a piece of flesh was missing from his body suddenly appeared in his mind, and he suddenly fell into a state of confusion, and he couldn't help laughing.

"What about that stone?" I suppressed the urge to laugh and continued to ask.

"Later, Luke was plotted and transferred to the Silent City. I thought he would be attacked by a group of local adventurers and eventually die of exhaustion. But I didn't expect that he would still carry the stone with him. Not only that, he He also made a name for himself with that stone!"

"What kind of fame?"

"Black Nightmare" Di Ruiji said these four words seriously: "You should have heard of it, right?"

I nodded and said, "I've heard of it. It's said to be a powerful collection of power that was taken away by Baan after Luke's death."

"Your information is correct," Di Ruiji said: "After Luke's death, the indigenous residents of the Zephyr Continent, the dagger master Barn, one of the four sword masters, plundered the power of the black nightmare. However, it was in With that woman’s help.”

She paused and emphasized: "Human beings cannot directly absorb the power of black nightmares."

"Excuse me," I said, "I've seen the stone you mentioned that can release the power of black nightmares."

Di Ruiji was startled when he heard this, and then asked: "Where?"

"It was in the body of a certain monster boss and it exploded after it died."

"I'm not asking about the origin of that stone, but where is that stone now?"

"Absorbed by me."

As soon as he said this, both Di Ruji and Shilok looked at me blankly.

After a long while, Di Ruiji said in a trembling voice: "Suck it, absorb it?"

"Yes, it has been absorbed. It has been absorbed completely along with the whole stone, not even the residue is left."

"This..." Di Ruiji didn't know what to say.

Shilok on the other side gave a rare smile: "Being absorbed by him is a good thing, isn't it?"

Di Ruiji's face was uncertain. After a long time, he sighed: "You are right, it is a good thing."

Then, she raised her head, looked directly at me, and asked, "How did you react after absorbing that stone?"

"If you have specific feelings——"

I deliberately lengthened my tone.

Di Ruigi's neck gradually straightened as my tone of voice lengthened. It looked so funny, so funny.

But the teasing should be stopped in moderation. I smiled slightly and said the following: "No."

"W-what's not there?" Di Ruiji asked puzzled.

"Unusual feeling, none" I repeated again.

"Is that not an abnormal feeling?" Di Ruijie asked again.

"Not at all." I shook my head again and said, "To tell you the truth, after the stone was absorbed, I didn't feel anything. It's the same as it should be."

"Then there are no abnormal features at all?" Di Ruiji refused to give up and asked again.
