"Huh... As expected, there is almost no useful information from the Adventurers Association here."

The flame dragon that died in the ashes almost "persuaded" most adventurers to quit. There began to be crazy rumors from outside that this dungeon was very difficult to deal with, very difficult to defeat, and it was extremely demotivating.

"According to what Will speculated. This may not be a natural thing. It is more likely that... this underground city is not Carver's 'faction' - or it used to be, but broke away."

Leah pulled her hat down to try to make herself less conspicuous, but in the absence of people, her witch hat had already exposed her.

"Forget it. Maybe it's more eye-catching, and there's still a little bit of hope..."

Will guessed that in a dungeon that was "too idle", their emperor might come out to "take a look around."

Therefore, if you want to meet the witch who dedicated his soul and life to the dungeon, "squatting down" here is the best choice.

"But... it's very strange. The emperor here is obviously a dragon, so why does he... come out for a walk?"

"Hmm...this apple is very red. Wasn't it really ripened by magic? Don't worry."

Then, Leah heard some strange sounds——

She was using a very childish and cute voice and an overly mature tone, which sounded very much like what a "witch" would do.

"Is this..."

"Girl, have you never seen the apples on the Katisi Peninsula? They are all so red."

"I'm not a child. Do you think you can deceive me? In my impression, that...isn't it a wasteland? When did you start growing apples?"

Leah turned around and saw a...

He is dressed in tatters and looks like a beggar's clothes. He doesn't look like a "contemporary person" in any way. Even the words he uses are particularly "archaic"...

child.

Chapter 404: Have you heard of "Su Bing Formation"? (3k)

"Oh? There seems to be a magical lady here?"

It was not that Leah discovered her, but she was the first to call out to Leah, as if she was attracted by her hat. She picked up an apple from the stall and walked towards Leah.

……wack?

However, if it is really someone from the underground city who came out from the inside to "privately visit", she must be the weirdest person in the entire city. Could it be that...

While Leah was still thinking this, the child came over.

"You, help me see if there is any modern magic that makes this apple so red."

"……I?"

Before Leah could react to what was happening, the child who came over suddenly patted her on the shoulder and spoke in a low but obviously overbearing tone:

"They are all magicians. I don't have any money with me yet. Please help me pay for the apple~Thank you."

"ah?"

When Leah reacted, she had already rubbed her shoulders, wrapped her tattered coat, and ran away with the apples she got from the stall.

"What...who is this person!?"

"Hey, give me back the apple - did she just talk to you, are you and her together?! Just uh... why did you steal something, just an apple? Isn't this a bit... too stingy? ?”

It seemed that he was a little speechless by this inexplicable child's crazy and stingy behavior. The stall owner originally wanted to catch up, but he could only stay where he was and scratch his head.

"I paid the money for her. I'll go chase her first. If you still see her next time, let me know as soon as possible - you think I'm easy to find, right?"

"Uh...okay?"

Leah followed the trace of brown soiled coat out.

She is very small and cannot run very fast.

But……

If she is "Al", if she is the flame dragon, if she is the emperor formed by the personality left behind by the original witch "Ya'er", why does she look like a child?

Well……

Of course, maybe it’s not surprising that the witch is a child? Moreover, her behavior of stealing apples and letting other magicians stand in front of her seems... seems to be quite "witchy"?

After all, Leah herself is still...

"Oh? You really paid for me. Not bad. He looks like an excellent magician."

"Um?"

Leah raised her head and saw her sitting on a big tree nearby.

Her eyes widened...

At this time, she did have a little belief that the child in front of her was the "Flaming Dragon".

Because looking from the bottom up, her ill-fitting and tattered coat could not cover her tail. A red tail that is rolled up so that no one can see it can be clearly seen from the bottom of the tree.

Her coat, which had been covering her head, was taken off by her at this time, making her pair of dragon horns particularly obvious.

She looks very much like a... half-dragon.

Leia was a little surprised. In this world, there were human-like half-orc races found in inaccessible forests, but there had never been a half-dragon race.

This kind of species called "dragon" existed in vague historical records "thousands of years ago", but was only found in dungeons after that. Of course, it is unlikely to merge with humans.

Only a few "Dragonborn" have been seen among the emperors in the dungeon, but those "Dragonborn" are basically the transformed images of certain giant dragons, not their entities.

but……

She appeared in front of him as a living example. And it still appeared outside the dungeon.

Is there really such a creature?

"Your name...couldn't it be...Al?"

"Oh? My name is so famous - no, how do you know it? I have never told anyone about this name!"

She was quite alert.

"Oh - you must be a spy sent by that... Adventurer's Association, so you recognized at a glance that I am actually from that side."

Al said, pointing to the door of the dungeon in the distance. The ashes of the underground city gate are similar to the stone gates of the primitive era. They are basically just piles of granite piled randomly. In terms of style, it matches well with Al's tattered primitive attire in front of him.

Leah actually thought of the "nice words" she might hear——

"Sir Al, don't eat apples on the tree, come down quickly, after all, this is not suitable for you, the noble one. I will... buy as much as you want to eat, okay?"

Leah smirked and pinched her thigh hard with her hands.

She has never coaxed a child so humbly. Usually when she goes out, she is the one who is treated like a child.

"No. Red apples have this kind of taste. A little taste is enough for research. There is no need to eat too much."

Al sat on the tree and turned the apple in his hand that she had chewed until the core was left.

She seemed to "care" about the apple, but she didn't seem to care that much.

Her attitude is not like a child who is greedy for fruit, but more like an "experimenter"? I just want to observe and study something I haven’t seen before.

Even tasting it is just one part of it.

"You are a magician, right?"

"Yes, how..."

"That's great. There is a library here with many magic books. They seem to only let 'magicians' in - but they don't recognize me as a magician."

"Library? Hmm... there does seem to be a library here."

Leah had seen it when she came here, but the library seemed to be funded by the magic school of Entak First College. Indeed, only "magicians" were allowed to enter. Maybe they were magicians who graduated from Entak First College. .

but……

Libraries in these relatively remote villages are usually just a prestige project, and you probably won’t find any good books in them.

When it comes to good books, you still have to go to the witch's library...

"Okay. You must be able to find a lot of magic books there, right? I'm particularly interested in one. You can either take me in or help me take the book out."

"It's possible, but I don't think there will necessarily be...what book?"

Leah felt that she had reached the point of being patient with her child.

Fortunately, this empress, although her expressions and behavior are childish, from an obedient point of view, she seems to be motivated, studious, and quite "well-behaved".

""Su Bing Array"."

"Eh?!"

"A few days ago, there was a guy with a shield who used this thing - I always thought it sounded very, very... familiar."

Rarely, Al showed a confused expression on his face, not as confident as he was just now.

"My memory always revolves around this name, and the little girl used it really beautifully. It's rare that she wants me to study what it is..."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"So, Yi'er believes that the key to defeating her lies in "Su Bing Formation". What do you think, young master?"

"...Maybe."

Will didn't say much, he just "guided."

"Then Yi'er... go and get that book. If you look at the real thing, maybe the young master will know the answer."

During these days, he only repeated one thing when he was by Yi'er's side -

Go back in time.

Even if he can't see with his eyes, he can still hear sounds, feel the temperature around him, feel the things around him, and then notice one thing...

Little by little, I am returning to the "memories" of the System family.

He watched Yi Aier do the "training" she was supposed to do all day again today.

It was still the same routine he had left behind before, whether it was high-temperature training, endurance training, or the study of "Su Bing Array"... it made Will feel that she was indeed too obedient. In fact, according to her current strength, it was not The lack of "hardware" is the failure to find the right method.

And that method...

Indeed, in "Plain Ice Formation", if the story about "Plain Ice Formation" in the original work that Will remembers is correct, its last move can ignore the fancy things in Yanlong Flower and directly Break it.

You don’t even need to analyze the BOSS’s skills or abilities, you can defeat it with just that one move.

"Master, Yi Aier is back. Can you just sit next to the master like this?"

He heard Yi'ai's voice getting closer and closer, and then Yi'ai placed a chair next to him, and then he heard the sound of a heavy book being gently placed on the table.

Sound can bring memories.

Will remembered that he once enjoyed such warm sunshine in the small garden, sitting on a light wooden chair and listening to Elle's cute voice.

Yes……

Everything was being forced back to his teenage memories by Iai.

"Master, although you can't see it, Iai has arranged the entire garden, including the appearance of each flower, according to the appearance of the old Systrom family garden."

Iai said with a smile.

She pointed to the garden in the distance. Although Will couldn't see it, she still did this stupidly.

"The old garden? Speaking of which, what I disliked most was the jasmine flowers facing the table at that time. It was too fragrant and made people dizzy."

"Yes, Iai remembers, so in this garden, it has been replaced with a fragrance-free type."

It was like a memory that made time stop forever in a perfect day.

Iai took Will to experience this scene.

"...You are too meticulous."

"Master, the book is here, you can touch it."

Iai said, raising his right hand. Will felt her guidance in the dark, touched the air in front of him, and then touched the book in the black of the tabletop that could be vaguely seen.

The page feels a bit old, even too rough.

If you explore the side, you will find countless layers of creases on the page that the book is opened.

It started as a small folded triangle, then gradually became larger and larger, and finally countless layers of creases turned this footer into a curled edge.
