Mystery: Start with the Reader

Latest website: However, the very fact that this question was raised shows that Roselle is sure that there will be a "reader" passing by a fellow villager who will ask this lion for "materials" someday in the future!

Is the prophecy ability of the "Emperor of Knowledge" so strong?

With a little puzzlement, Abner hesitated and gave the answer:

"Italian gun."

Here, he used Chinese. After all, whether it is Intis or Hermes, the expression is not so meaningful.

The lion named "Leon" showed obvious sluggishness on his face, and muttered in his mouth: "The answer turned out to be this... But, what does the word 'Italian Cannon' mean? What kind of weapon does it represent?"

Hearing its words, Abner was also stunned, and asked in surprise, "Don't you know the answer?"

"Why do I need to ask the 'secret' I know?" Lion Leon looked over and asked naturally.

"No... Then how do you judge whether the answer is true or not? What if someone talks nonsense?" Abner wondered if he could pass the test if he said "Gundam" just now...

"This involves the talent of our 'Finks'. You can also understand it as a natural 'secret technique'. It can judge whether the answers given by others are correct through the interaction with the spirit world...

"However, this only applies to general 'secret' knowledge... There is no corresponding result in the spirit world for the question I asked you, otherwise I would have trained a 'reader' to help me out of trouble.

"Heh, this question was raised by that person, and he preset the answer in my 'talent area'...I couldn't see it before, until you said that word, and I had the permission to 'browse' .”

Speaking of this, the lion's furry face showed a somewhat complicated look, as if it had quite contradictory emotions for the "bastard" and "that person" it called, which was a feeling of reverence and hatred.

Standard information flow operations and "order" constraints, Roselle may have been trying to accommodate the uniqueness of the "Dark Emperor" when he kept this lion here.

Thinking of this in his heart, Abner cast his eyes on the face of Lion Leon again, and thought: It seems that his true feelings are revealed...Of course, there may also be reasons why it has an extra brain and cannot control the negative effects of emotions.

This lion might have been Roselle's "pet" back then, so he had both admiration and resentment for being abandoned.

However, Roselle encloses it here, in addition to being a "tool lion" to deliver materials, it may also have the meaning of protecting it... After all, the emperor is very clear about what he will face in the future.

If it had been by Roselle's side, it might have died long ago.

Just when Abner was deep in thought, the lion had restrained his emotions, and then released the posture of interacting with the spirit world, and Abner's spirit also "returned" to reality.

Only then did he realize that "Vice Admiral Iceberg" Edwina was confronting an uninvited guest with a long-handled black sickle.

The person was wearing a black robe with a hood, which concealed her appearance, and she could only be seen as a lady from the nice figure that was sticking to her body because the clothes were slightly wet from the rain.

However, Abner recognized the sickle and who the owner of the sickle was at a glance.

After all, the former is the "scythe of the curse" that I personally made for Jane not long ago; and the latter, it's not the first time I've seen her black robe wet by the rain, and it's the same as Baekeland in my memory. The figure that suddenly appeared in his study on a rainy day in Deshi overlapped.

That's right, the unexpected guest who appeared suddenly was Abner's classmate and friend——Jane Grant Miranda.

Abner, who saw his friend, was naturally extremely happy, but he was facing Doctor Strange's face at the moment, so it was not easy to directly reveal his identity to her... After all, Edwina was fine. That lion Leon was not enough to trust.

"'Vice Admiral Iceberg', I have no intention of being your enemy...I just want to ask 'Finx Lion' a question." Jian Jian said in a hoarse voice with a sickle in his hand.

"I'm not trying to stop you...but you have to wait until the matter between him and the 'Finx Lion' is over." Edwina spoke politely, but she firmly stood in front of Jane, and took out the A palm-sized brass mirror—compared to the silver mirror used for "prophecy" before, this mirror is much smaller.

Jane glanced at the brass mirror, aware of its danger, and then skipped over Edwina and looked at the man who was "looking" at the Finx lion. She was about to say something, but suddenly The gaze is fixed.

Because a copper whistle suddenly appeared in the man's hand...

That was the copper whistle she gave Abner to summon the messenger!

Seeing this, Jane first frowned, showing a hint of danger, but soon, she seemed to have figured something out, and her face became bright again.

Then, Jane looked at Edwina seriously for a while before replying: "Okay, I'll wait for a while."

Edwina almost struck first when Jane showed hostility before, but she immediately realized that the sense of danger was fleeting, as if it had never existed, and the attitude of the other party also changed greatly.

Although she couldn't figure out why the lady who came suddenly changed her attitude, but since the other party accepted her suggestion, she was unwilling to make enemies for no reason, so she took the bronze mirror back.

At this time, the lion murmured in a strange voice: "I'm afraid today is my lucky day. Not to mention getting rid of that superfluous brain soon, even the opportunity to completely get rid of the shackles of the 'rules' has appeared."

"What are you talking about?" Abner, who had put the copper whistle back away, had just turned his attention back, so he couldn't hear what the lion was saying.

"It's nothing..." Lion Leon shook his big head, and announced in a solemn tone: "Your answer is one of the several alternative answers provided by that person, and I have completed my 'secret' question... Now, tell me What reward do you need?"

Having said that, it couldn't help emphasizing again: "Even if you want my brain, I can give it to you!"

If I really want something else at this time, will you lose control and go crazy on the spot? Abner slandered a few words, but on the surface he said seriously:

"I want the complete brain of 'Finx Lion'."

"As you wish!" Lion Leon Mao's face showed a relieved smile, then he pulled out a mane and threw it at his big head.

Immediately afterwards, a complete "sphere" with hooks several times larger than that of a human brain appeared in the palm of the lion, but it did not immediately hand it over to Abner.

Seeing this, Abner's "pure white eyes" suddenly opened, first to "identify" the authenticity of that brain, and second, to use the high-level status to put pressure on the lion so that it would not make wrong choices.

In fact, Abner and Edwina had considered the possibility that the other party would turn against each other immediately after getting rid of the restrictions of the "rules", and they had corresponding plans, but they couldn't guarantee that they would be able to stay.

But Jane's arrival made Abner feel that the chances of winning were higher, after all, the lion didn't know that he would be beaten three times.

However, this lion's methods are both weird and rich, and it is better not to do it, so Abner stared at it with the opened "Pure White Eye", and said with a smile: "Why, do you want to be greedy for rewards?" ?"

The lion was a little scared by Abner's eyes, and its spirituality was warning. It didn't want to break its promise, but just wanted to tease the other party...

But this reaction is too scary! It was as terrifying as the seal that the Emperor had at hand!

When this idea came to Leon's mind, a rather humane smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he said, "How can it be? I'm helping you inspect the goods, so as not to steal them incompletely just now."

After finishing speaking, it simulated a gust of wind, and carried the "brain" to Abner's body—without the burden of the extra brain, the success rate of its simulation ability was greatly improved immediately.

On the other hand, Abner also heaved a sigh of relief after inspecting the brain, and he didn't want to fight an extraordinary creature who mastered multiple secret techniques unless it was absolutely necessary.

After packing his brain in his carry-on box, Abner thought of what Leon said just now, and asked casually, "Steal?"

"That's right, this is another secret technique I developed, an improved version of 'stealing' specially used to 'steal' the brain precisely." Lion Leon replied quite proudly.

"This...can your secret technique be any stranger?" Abner couldn't help complaining.

"Of course! That bastard... oh, that is, the Great Emperor Roselle who trapped me here, he told me many fantastic ideas and strange stories." Having said that, the lion paused. After glancing at Edwina and Jane not far away, he deliberately pulled out a "wretched" smile, and said in a "whispering voice":

"I remember the emperor told a story about a boy from an island country who was a 'stealer'. He had the ability to steal women's underwear... When I was bored, I developed an 'underwear stealing technique' that has the same effect. Would you like it?" Learn? I can teach you."

The lion seemed to be speaking in a "whispered voice", but the volume was not low at all. At least the two ladies on the other side heard it clearly.

They were first surprised and stunned by the "Rosell" mentioned by the lion, and then they heard the obscene secret technique, and they all said in unison:

"Don't learn!"

One of them is the "messenger" of the emperor's daughter, and the other is the descendant of the knights under the emperor's command. In fact, they all have some longing for the great man who changed the times.

But they never thought that Emperor Roselle would tell such... such a disgusting idea to a lion...

At this moment, even if he was as calm as "Vice General Iceberg", he felt that the image of the emperor in his heart had completely collapsed.

Seeing the sly look in the lion's eyes, Abner covered his forehead and said in his heart:

Your Majesty, I'm afraid your reputation will be completely hopeless this time...

But it's not my fault, it's all your fault!

Although the lion is obviously trying to blackmail you, it is not fabricated out of thin air...

That island boy who stole his underwear is the protagonist of a different world anime, right?
