Chapter 377 The Price of the Magic Book

Since he is a member of his own family, Li Qi doesn't have to hide anything.

He nodded and said to Ye Yue:

"Yes, it was she who made me become an undead, so if I guessed correctly, you should be the 'second sister'."

"Haha, second sister, I thought Mu Xi would find a son."

Ye Yue laughed out loud when she heard this, and then said: "It seems that when you were transformed by her, you should be stronger than her."

Li Qi nodded again.

It is precisely because Li Qi is stronger than Mu Xi that Mu Xi has a very gentle attitude when transforming Li Qi.

On the contrary, if Li Qi is weaker than Mu Xi, then he may only become Mu Xi's 'son' now.

In the final analysis, no matter what world you are in, strength must speak for itself.

Just like it is now.

After briefly introducing each other's identities, neither Li Qi nor Ye Yue mentioned their real names. He directly skipped the topic, pursed his lips toward the milk tea shop, and asked:

"What's going on with this little girl with secondary disease?"

Speaking of Yi Cheng, Ye Yue immediately performed a smile disappearing technique in front of Li Qi.

She sighed and said:

"There was something wrong with my reincarnation. Before I was fully born, I was dragged over by her and stuffed into this corpse... But the strangest thing is not this. The strangest thing is that someone with such abilities Not herself, but the magic book in her hand.

"But I made a contract with the magic book, so I can't take that magic book away from her."

Hazuki briefly explained her current predicament.

Li Qi instantly remembered what Liu Cheng had mentioned to him in the past few days, the missing body, and the light that seemed to be a magic circle that summoned the body away.

"It turns out it's you..."

Li Qi's expression was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that just by going out for a casual walk today, he would meet the person involved in the disappearance.

And also found the owner of the strange object who can use magic.

It's just that the owner looks a bit average... No, it's really too average.

Hearing what Li Qi said, Ye Yue was a little surprised this time:

"You know us?"

"The official has focused on you. They haven't suspected you yet, probably because you hide it so well."

Li Qi said and looked at Yi Cheng who was in the milk tea shop.

Normal people would basically not doubt a student suffering from secondary school syndrome. Even Li Qi, Zhao Chenghu never suspected that there was something wrong with Li Qi when Li Qi did not show any abnormality.

So as long as Yi Cheng doesn't show her strength in front of others, she won't be discovered by the authorities.

"...I don't think she hid it well. I suspect she was just lucky."

Thinking of Yi Cheng who was in the second grade all day long, Ye Yue couldn't help but sigh.

Yi Cheng didn't seem to think about hiding herself. She kept saying all kinds of secondary remarks all day long, and she also kept showing off her magic at home.

Only when going out, Yi Cheng would be a little restrained and would not release magic.

But Ye Yue suspected that the reason why Yi Cheng didn't release magic was because she felt that she was a demon hidden in the world, and she shouldn't use magic in front of ordinary people unless it was absolutely necessary, so she never exposed it.

But once the time comes when Yi Cheng feels that she has no choice but to do so, she will definitely release the magic without hesitation, Ye Yue believes so.

"Does she have her magic book with her?"

Li Qi finally asked.

Ye Yue nodded: "She always carries it with her and has never taken it off, but... this magic book seems to be completely focused on her. I also tried touching it when she was asleep, but she couldn't use the magic at all. "

"Have you recognized your master..."

"perhaps."

Hazuki sighed.

I don't know how Yi Cheng got this magic book. It has to be said that it is a great luck that Yi Cheng got something that ordinary people could never ask for in a lifetime.

The magic book belongs entirely to Yi Cheng, and it is probably impossible to take it away from Yi Cheng with the help of clever tricks.

Li Qi touched his chin and thought for a while, then suddenly asked:

"Then, have you ever tried to obtain the other party's consent before using the magic book?"

"?" Ye Yue understood what Li Qi meant: "You mean... to ask Yi Cheng to take the initiative to transfer the magic book to you?"

"Or let her give me some access to the magic book."

Li Qi added an explanation.

The magic book is completely based on Yi Cheng, which is okay. When Li Qi made the Adam series of armors, the Adam series was also completely based on Li Qi.

But this does not mean that others cannot use it. As long as Li Qi delegates the authority of the Adam series of armors, others can use the Adam armors.

I believe the same is true for magic books. When the person with the first authority separates part of his authority, then the part of the authority that is separated will naturally have the ability to use the magic book.

Although these are just Li Qi's conjectures.

but……

"You can try it." Li Qi smiled and said to Ye Yue, then took out the small mechanism he made when he was bored from his pocket and played with it.

He planned to regard this little mechanism as a 'surprise' for Yi Cheng.

………

After buying some snacks and preparing gifts, Li Qi followed Ye Yue back to the milk tea shop.

Yi Cheng, who had been waiting here for a long time, was not angry because Li Qi and Ye Yue had been away for a long time. On the contrary, she was happily playing with the mechanical toy Li Qi gave her.

The mechanical props made by Li Qi are not combat props. They are just auxiliary tools. They contain some basic tools that Li Qi often uses, such as screwdrivers, wrenches and other things.

These things can be made by modern industry, but Yi Cheng loves them.

She also gave a reason for this:

"My friend's hands are still so dexterous. Although this thing has not been stained with any magic, it is also a good prop. It is just right to kill time."

Yi Cheng was very satisfied with it.

Li Qi could see that she was really happy, and smiled and said:

"It would be best if you are satisfied. By the way, do you still have your magic book with you?"

"Oh?" Yi Cheng turned her head and looked at Li Qi: "Are you talking about my demigod, the Magic Book of Ten Thousand Curses?"

"Yes, that's it."

Li Qi snapped his fingers.

He didn't know what the magic book was called, but Yi Cheng had only one important magic book, so if nothing unexpected happened, what Yi Cheng mentioned at this moment was this magic book.

Yi Cheng didn't seem to worry at all that Li Qi would snatch her magic book. She put the magic book on the table nonchalantly and said to Li Qi:

"Here, what? Do you want to use magic too?"

Yi Cheng seemed to have some ability to see through other people's essence. She saw Li Qi's thoughts and asked with a smile.

Li Qi didn't hide it and nodded:

"I haven't used it for a long time, so I want to try it."

"Okay, but you have to make me a 'stand-in' like you now in exchange. If you agree, I will lend you the Ten Thousand Curses."

Yi Cheng smiled even happier. She pointed at Li Qi's body as if she was just saying it casually.

Li Qi's pupils shrank slightly.

He raised his head in surprise and met Yi Cheng's eyes, but he could only see the purity and sincerity in Yi Cheng's eyes.

The other party actually knew that his body was a 'stand-in'?

Is this a coincidence, or is it the ability given to the other party by the magic book?

Li Qi was not sure, but if he could gain the ability to use magic by just making a doll body, he was willing to pay such a price.

Therefore, Li Qi agreed to Yi Cheng's request without much hesitation:

"Okay."

"Very good, you are my friend, so straightforward. In this case, my friend, please come to my workshop. After all, it is not the darkest time yet, and it is not suitable to cast magic in the outside world."

Yi Cheng stood up and took the cup of milk tea she ordered.

Hearing this, Li Qi looked at Ye Yue, who explained in a low voice:

"...She is inviting you to her home."

"So that's it."

Li Qi nodded in understanding.

It seems that the 'workshop' that Yi Cheng mentioned is her home.

...

Yi Cheng's home is in a high-end residential area in the center of Suhe City. Even taking a taxi takes a certain amount of time.

However, it is dark now, and it is unclear whether it is day or night except for the time. Li Qi does not need to go back in such a hurry.

It took more than 20 minutes to get to Yicheng's home by taxi. As soon as he entered Yicheng's house, Li Qi fell silent instantly.

The overall tone of Yicheng's home is black, with some purple wallpaper and carpets in the middle. The whole impression of the room is black and purple.

The sofa also uses a black and purple blanket, with various magic circle patterns on it.

The wall is hung with low-quality bone ornaments customized online, and there is a human skeleton in the corner, with a witch COS costume on it.

TV, refrigerator, air conditioner... All electrical appliances are affixed with purple stickers, which proves that Yicheng really likes this color.

In short, as soon as he entered here, Li Qi felt the breath of middle school.

"My friend, welcome to my workshop!"

Entering the room, Yicheng opened his arms and welcomed Li Qi.

Li Qi looked for a while and asked:

"...Where are your family members?"

"Hmm? Are you asking about my blood relatives in this life?"

Yi Cheng replied casually: "Huh, just human beings, life is naturally fragile, not as good as us creatures in the demon world."

Did he die in an accident?

He turned to Ye Yue for confirmation, and seeing Ye Yue nodded, Li Qi stopped asking about this matter.

Yi Cheng didn't seem to care much about the death of her relatives. She passed by this topic and said:

"My friend, don't you want to use magic? I have given you the temporary right to use the magic book, use it here as you like."

Yi Cheng said, and threw the magic book in his hand to Li Qi without any care.

Li Qi caught it with both hands, and soon sensed a special connection on the magic book, which proved that he had the power to use magic.

Looking up at Yi Cheng who was looking at him, Li Qi silently opened the magic book, just wanting to see what spells were on it.

But after opening it, Li Qi was shocked.

Because from his perspective, the magic recorded in the magic book is actually the magic he has learned and used before!

At first, Li Qi thought he had seen it wrong, but after turning a few pages, Li Qi was sure that he was not wrong. The magic on it was really the magic he learned in the magic world!

After staring at the magic in the magic book for a while, Li Qi heard Yi Cheng's urging voice:

"My friend, what are you still standing there for? Don't worry about using magic to destroy my workshop, just use it as much as you can!"

"..."

Li Qi stood there for two seconds holding the magic book. After hearing what Yi Cheng said, he regrouped and reached out to the empty mineral water bottle on the table.

He wanted to cast an ordinary apprentice-level magic electric shock. This magic did not cause much damage and was not powerful. It would not cause much damage, just right for experiments.

However, what Li Qi did not expect was that when he was about to cast magic, he could not control a spell:

"Summon in the name of Thunder God, come with my will, the power of thunder and lightning, smash the obstacles blocking my eyes——!"

Kacha——

The dazzling lightning exploded in the air, and the mineral water bottle that Li Qi targeted was annihilated in the lightning in the blink of an eye, leaving nothing behind.

Ye Yue, who was standing aside, was slightly surprised, and looked at Li Qi with a slightly strange expression.

Yi Cheng nodded to Li Qi with a face full of approval and a very satisfied look.

Only Li Qi himself was silent for a full minute, and then he threw the magic book back to Yi Cheng in a flash, and looked at it as if he was looking at a devil.

At the moment when he used the magic just now, Li Qi knew the cost of using this "Magic Book of Ten Thousand Curses".

That was a price he was not very willing to accept!
