Don't confiscate my citizenship

Chapter 787 Lan Qi’s Second Week

 The pain of death filled Lanchi's body, and his consciousness was almost torn apart.

Even if he was only simulating it in the spiritual world, he seemed to have experienced a fierce battle at this time. Not only was he truly experiencing a complete defeat, but he was also experiencing unforgettable emotions.

The moment he walked out of the Mirror of Tiberius, he staggered slightly and couldn't even stand still.

White light filled the air, and Talia appeared immediately, holding Lan Qi in front of her, preventing him from falling down.

This is the central energy room deep underground in Purgatory Corridor Academy.

"Lan Qi, are you okay?"

Thalia now regrets not stopping Ranchi from entering the Mirror of Tiberius.

Any legendary item is probably not a good thing.

She witnessed with her own eyes the entire process of Pope Saint Paulante's defeat, including being defeated by the immortal glazed body, being besieged by despair, being cut in half, and being shown to pieces.

Now they are back in the shadow world.

Thalia immediately paid attention to the information about the shadow world.

[Mission Objective 1: Read the letter from my old friend Kaliera; go to the demonic purgatory city of Pascual & protect the little spark left by Kaliera; understand the Mirror of Tiberius. (Finish)】

[Mission Objective 2: Understand the state of mind of Lancross of the Black Sun: 19.53%. (Finish)】

[Mission goal 3: All challengers survive until the end of the 21-day time limit, with the remaining time being 5 days, 11 hours and 9 minutes. 】

Seeing Lanqi's understanding of Black Sun Qing soar, Talia's heart palpitated.

An experience with the Mirror of Tiberius brought Lan Qi much closer to the Black Sun, and even then it was only 20%?

Thalia looked at the cubic magic mirror behind Lan Qi, feeling fear in her heart.

"good."

Lan Qi's eyes still looked confused as if he had just woken up.

He did not try to be brave, but with Thalia's support, he sat on the steps in front of the Mirror of Tiberius.

"Lanchi, do you want to continue looking in the Mirror of Tiberius?"

Although Talia probably knew that she could not persuade Lanqi to stop, her concern made her couldn't help but say.

It was not just a fantasy, but a projection of the future that Lan Qi experienced almost personally.

She also sat next to Lan Qi.

"Does the two of us, every time, have the option to stop?"

Lan Qi turned his head and asked Thalia.

"really…"

Thalia understood that every time she hesitated, Ranchi would be determined, and every time Ranchi hesitated, she would be determined.

So from the first time they participated in the game at Golden Bee Amusement Park, the two of them were like a rivalry that would never stop, and would work with each other to the end no matter what.

"Then there's a beginning and an end, but if you're in a bad mood, don't ignore me, okay?"

Thalia put her hand on the back of Lan Qi's hand, trying to give his cold hand some warmth.

Previously, at the end of the Mirror of Tiberius, she saw Lan Qi like that, and she was worried.

"Master, does this sound like what you would say?"

Lanci asked Thalia, staring at her in surprise.

Why has Master Jiang become like a little girl?

Thalia also seemed to realize that it was inappropriate to touch Lan Qi, and she retracted her hand as if she was electrocuted.

after awhile.

"Haha, the more you want me to scold you, the more I won't let you see how gentle I am."

Thalia met Lanci's gaze calmly and smiled cheerfully at him.

She didn't seem to be hiding anything.

Ifatiya said that only a sense of contrast can make a man never forget you.

“…”

Lan Qi felt that he had to have a good talk with Ifatiya after returning to the living world.

She taught her sister some strange things.

Now Lan Qi didn't dare to tell Hyperion that he had found Miss Epatia. He was afraid that Epatia would say "brother" when they met, which would make it impossible for mother and daughter to get along with each other in the future.

"Do you think that your desire to talk to Ifatiya is very similar to your brother's attitude towards his sister?"

Thalia asked nonchalantly as she sat aside.

She could actually hear Lan Qi's thoughts clearly.

"?"

Lan Qi listened to Thalia's rare complaint, his expression full of question marks.

"Actually, she's pretty good as a sister, so just accept it."

Thalia said to herself in a calm tone without any hint of encouragement.

"No, I will definitely clarify the seniority issue with Miss Ifatiya next time we meet."

Lan Qi said seriously.

"Ifatiya, do you think this glass of water will come to my brother's hand by itself?"

Thalia imitated Lanqi's tone and dubbed him.

She felt that this was how Lan Qi taught the issue of seniority.

"How could anyone talk to a classmate's mother like this?"

Lan Qi was made dumbfounded by Talia, covered her face and said.

He wanted to upgrade Yifatiya, not demote her.

The two chatted briefly, and the look on Lan Qi's face recovered a lot.

Several days passed quickly inside the Mirror of Tiberius, while only two hours passed outside the mirror.

On one side of the Purgatory Corridor Academy's energy center room, a small figure noticed the changes in the cubic mirror, walked around half a circle, and saw Lanci and Fake Kaliera sitting on the steps.

"You're back."

Tamisha looked at Lanqi from afar and welcomed.

Although she may be saying something welcoming, because she has no tone, it sounds like a statement.

Originally, she didn't plan to speak, but she was a little worried when she saw that the phantom was in a very bad state after coming out of the six-sided cube magic mirror, as if it had died once.

She didn't want the phantom she had finally saved to die.

Lanqi gave Thalia a look and indicated that he was going to explain to Tamisha. Thalia also understood very well and disappeared into pure white light and shadow.

He stood up from the steps and walked over to Tamisha.

"Tamisha, I'm sorry for keeping you waiting."

Lan Qi squatted down, looked at Tamisha levelly and said.

"Would you like something to eat? I left a lot for you."

Tamisha pointed to the four-layer lunch box placed aside.

She only ate one box herself, and the other two boxes were reserved for the Phantom Demon's lunch.

"No, you already fed me well in the corridor before. Thanks to your care, I survived."

Ranchi said to Tamisha with a smile.

“…”

Tamisha was in a daze. She rarely received such words of thanks and didn't know how to respond.

"Then I'll feed you when you're hungry. Eat well, or you'll fall down again."

That was all she could say.

"Then you promise me that I will stay here for a while, and you have to have a good meal at noon, otherwise your teachings will not be convincing and I won't want to have a good meal."

Ranchi answered her.

He pointed to the lunch box, indicating that Tamisha might need another box to fill her stomach at noon.

"Um."

Tamisha nodded.

After the words fell.

Lan Qi turned around and walked towards the abyss-like dark purple mirror magic device behind him.

"Lan Qi, your relationship with her has been improved. She is willing to face you in her true form."

Thalia said in Lanci's mind.

Lan Qi's mentality was so good. He had just experienced such a real experience, and after coming out, he could still talk softly to the children.

It is completely different from the kind of adults who show off their expressions to children when they are in an explosive mood.

It seems that he is indeed a good teacher and will be a good father in the future.

"Tamisha was a good kid, with her father's toughness and her mother's softness."

Lan Qi said regretfully.

Whenever he sees Tamisha, he will think of the cold and handsome but naive Miwu Qing and the talented demon girl Zhen Yeqing who always hides herself but works very hard.

"I think Tamisha is cute too."

Thalia agreed.

Tamisha is literally little Thalia.

"Pfft."

Lan Qi almost laughed.

Unless Thalia could also turn into a little gray cat, he might admit Thalia's statement.

"You dream! Even if I die in this life and starve to death outside Mr. Cat's restaurant, there is no way I will turn into a little gray cat!"

Thalia warned Lanci.

Lan Qi has had this idea more than once, but there is no way she can turn into a little gray cat and let Lan Qi masturbate!

In a short moment, Lanci walked back to the Mirror of Tiberius on the steps.

The air at the edge of the mirror became layered due to the slight ripples of the power of the void, and magic began to dance gently on the calm mirror.

Lan Qi raised his hand and put it against the mirror. He moved forward slightly, and his figure moved towards the mirror and merged into the void surrounded by deep purple light. Then, Lan Qi once again felt that he was falling rapidly from the sea of ​​​​stars, and from time to time, light and colors appeared intertwined.

Until the speed of falling began to slow down, gravity pressed heavily on him, and dazzling white light burst out from the exit, rushing towards him instantly.

Everything evolved into understandable characters and information poured into his mind.

[Hang upside down future fantasy]

[Activation successful]

[Number of uses remaining: 1]

[Name: Lancros St. Anastasius]

[Current status: Level 9]

[Attribute: Seal/Light]

[Spells: Immortal Eternal Punishment, Chimera Edict, Glowing Sun Crown, Eternal Glory Destruction, Immortal Glass Body...the last gentle land. 】

[Accessories: Horning Empire Proving Ground Military Tag, Loser's Broken Blade, Ring, Far Traveler Pocket Watch, Witch's Warm Companion, Gretel Stone Emblem... Saint Paulante Silver Mask. 】

[Character attributes have been entered]

[Divination result: Death is coming]

[Departure location: Demon World, Purgatory City Pascual, suburbs of the city, Purgatory Corridor College]

[Remaining life: 5 days, 11 hours and 6 minutes]

After this text came into my mind.

Lan Qi's dizziness was no longer as strong as before.

He closed his eyes calmly and felt his surroundings.

When he opened his eyes again, he was already sitting in the principal's office of Purgatory Corridor College.

Outside the window, the biting cold wind carried scattered snowflakes, which remained unchanged, rising wantonly in the sky of Pascual, the demon world, and the plain white and golden afternoon sun shone into the principal's office.

It looked like it was noon in Purgatory City.

Instead, the face wearing a silver mask was still reflected on the window glass not far away. The mask was welded to his face like a brand, and the cold emerald green eyes were clearly visible through the mask.

Just like the previous time, after entering the [Mirror of Tiberius], he returned to the principal's office.

The next second, translucent demonic characters also began to come into view—

[December 25, 614, in the Theocracy of Saint Paulant. 】

【…】

[You felt your destiny approaching in Purgatory Corridor Academy and woke up. 】

[Probably in these last few days, your life has almost come to an end. 】

[You just discovered through the precognitive dream that the current peace is just an illusion. The vampires still have not repented at all. They are planning a bigger conspiracy in the Horning Empire. Everything is just to wait until your death comes so that they can start a counterattack. And they seem to have divined all this, knowing when you will probably die and when you will start to weaken. 】

[You finally understand the mood with which Kaliela died. 】

[She has seen everything through precognitive dreams before you. 】

[But you still don’t understand why she saw everything, but didn’t tell you directly, but let you choose whether to reveal the truth. 】

[Is there something else you haven’t seen? 】

[You can’t help but wonder, but you have already made up your mind. In this dream, you will definitely uncover all the mysteries. 】

When Lan Qi saw this, he found that the information stopped, and four options appeared.

【You will choose next:】

【A.Immortal punishment】

【B. Go to Demon King's Castle】

【C. Return to the Theocracy】

[D. Personal intervention]

Lan Qi put his hands on the desk and intertwined his fingers, looking at the similarities and differences this time.

This simulation started based on the premise that Lanclos had already had his first simulation experience, and the information he held had also changed.

Compared with the last simulation, this time it was already two hours later, and the initial time point came to noon.

Explain that the simulation starting node of the Mirror of Tiberius is based on the real time when the Mirror of Tiberius is activated.

Reality changed to noon, and the start time of the simulation in the Mirror of Tiberius also changed to noon.

The two hours late also made Lancross no longer reach the limit state of the ninth level, but dropped slightly.

"The only change in the options is that the original first option 'continue to stay' has been eliminated, because Lanclos can no longer sit here after knowing about the turmoil in the Horning Empire in the south."

Lan Qi murmured.

The key is that the "Stay" option has been replaced by the new option "Eternal Punishment."

Among the spells mastered by Lanclos of the Black Sun, the most core one is the epic spell called [Immortal Punishment].

Its effect is to continuously lock the target's life status at the expense of a certain amount of one's own life and mana. The spell cannot be actively released. Excessive attacks on the sealed target will weaken the sealing effect. Using wolf blood or demon blood as a medium can reduce the health of the target. Or mana cost.

"This spell doesn't say you can't use it on yourself... so the first option means to use Immortal Punishment on yourself immediately to lock your life state and prevent yourself from getting weaker?"

Thalia understood the significance of this option.

As long as he uses Immortal Punishment on himself, he can avoid falling to the eighth level when he arrives at Blood Moon City, thus maintaining a close state. At least until the destiny is read out, he will be at the ninth level!

"The answer is obvious."

Lan Qi was familiar with it once and for all. This time, he almost didn't have to think about the option of Tiberius Mirror. He was ready to make a choice. His hand was already on the first option of the light screen in front of him.

"Wait Lan Qi!"

Thalia stopped Lanci by drinking.

"What's wrong?"

Lan Qi didn't look like he was going to change his mind, he just asked Thalia.

"Have you ever thought about it, Lanclos actually knew that this method could lock him in the state before his death, but without knowing the conspiracy of the vampires, which was the scene in the first simulation, he didn't think about it at all. If you use immortal punishment like this, do you feel that once you use immortal punishment on yourself, you may pay a terrible price, and you don’t know what the price is yet?”

Thalia thought Lanclos couldn't be stupid.

If Immortal Punishment is really so useful, even if Lanclos doesn't know what the crisis is, he should use it before setting off.

And this is the Mirror of Tiberius, a masterpiece of demonic legend that transcends common sense.

Even at the cost, it may be simulated realistically for you.

By then, you may face some fears that even death is not worth mentioning.

"No matter what the cost, I believe that Lanclos will not hesitate even if he knows what will happen."

Lan Qi sighed and said to Talia with a helpless smile.

There was no trace of fear in his eyes.

But that's not bravery.

But a kind of persistence.

"Okay, no matter what the cost, I will face it with you."

Thalia hesitated for a moment and then made up her mind.

Anyway, with her accompanying Lan Qi, even if they have to face the price, the two of them will bear it together.

"Thank you, Master."

Lan Qi knew that Thalia could stay outside and risk danger in the Mirror of Tiberius without accompanying him, but she still followed him in again without thinking about it.

He was grateful to Thalia.

Immediately, he determined his eternal punishment.

In an instant, the office in front of him began to be filled with black mist magic.

The originally stable enchantment magic on the office wall began to fluctuate, as if it was being pulled by mysterious rules.

The lights suddenly became dimmer.

Lan Qi and Talia only saw the huge magic power gathered in the air, exuding fluctuations similar to those of Black Sun King, but more terrifying and more like the supreme power of the devil.

The magic power of the black mist gathered and weaved, and even the air began to tremble, until it finally enveloped Lan Qi, forming a black poisonous snake around him, and finally the lingering black mist suddenly shrank and rushed into his face.

Throughout the process, he was protected by an invisible force, and the surrounding space formed an isolated realm.

When the spell engraved by the black mist fell on Lan Qi's left cheek, the surrounding magic fluctuations gradually subsided, the light dissipated, and everything returned to normal.

[You don’t know what the consequences of using immortal punishment on yourself will be. 】

[But you used it resolutely. 】

[Because you know that only in this way can you maintain your condition and defeat the ancestors of Blood Moon City. 】

The demonic writing of the Mirror of Tiberius appears again.

【You will go next:】

【A. Nekalis】

【B.Saintrick】

【C. Hansabeck】

[D. Personal intervention]

[Remaining life: 5 days, 11 hours and 2 minutes]

New options also emerge.

"Lan Qi, are you okay?"

Thalia asked Lan Qi quickly.

Now she couldn't check Lan Qi's body and couldn't help him confirm his condition.

"I don't feel much change, except that my left cheek feels like it's been branded with a stinging pain."

Lan Qi briefly took off his mask, looked at his reflection that looked more like a demon, and answered Thalia.

In addition, at this moment, he no longer saw any hints of his own weakening.

He put the mask back on his face, covering up the violent incantation on his cheek like a black centipede. At this moment, he felt the power of taboo that would never wither.

The real invincible mode has begun.
