Throne Steps
Chapter 23
What is the meaning of lies?
Li Chen focused on imitation for more than ten years, and summed up the methodology - nine true and one false.
In front of Saenz, Li Chen has two shocking truths at the same time - he came from time travel, and he has been with necromancers for several years.Although both of them have the potential to be dragged out and burned, after comparing the before and after, Li Chen decided to expose the former first.
After all, an outsider who likes to guess wildly, and a necromancer who knows Sarnlich well, no matter how you look at it, the latter is more courteous.
To sum up, Lichen should properly tell what his previous life was like, how he passed through it, what Fuzhaoenyan saw, what kind of dream he had, and other related things.Except that the time of transmission is directly set as about 8 years old, and the place of transmission is near Bolton-he is indeed right.
As for why he was able to communicate as soon as he appeared in Bolton, and why he knew the formula of those high-level potions, Li Chen directly attributed it to "the memory of the body itself" and "various things dreamed after shining on Grace".Even though this hand is a bit magical, but under the premise of "traversing" this super. Magical premise, it seems that nothing is unusual.
Saenz inquired in detail about the species classification, human history, language exchange, development level, and political structure of the "earth" from a macro perspective, and then thoroughly questioned the world outlook, life outlook, and values from Li Chen's personal perspective.Under the premise that Li Chen knew everything without saying anything, Saenz gradually shifted the pointer of judgment to the side of "believing".
After all, Li Chen's appearance is only 12 years old, and the complex logic of his extreme incompatibility with age finally has an explanation.Leaving aside details such as "Origin of Species", "Three Laws of Physics", and "Representative of Abstraction", his conversion and use of the four languages "Chinese, English, Italian, and French" are enough to prove the truth of the story sex.
Thanks to Su Can's blessing, Li Chen was forced to learn several foreign languages.Although it is not fluent and accurate now, it is definitely more than enough under the display of "Chinese is the main language and the foreign language is supplemented".After all, it is not uncommon for people to construct fantasy worlds, but it is extremely rare to construct a complete new language system, and construct several words at the same time-with such a boring spirit, even a lot of forbidden spells can be studied.
Li Chen's mouth was parched, and the water in the teapot had already bottomed out.Saenz called his servants to come in for tea when he was free, and Li Chen took the opportunity to turn his head to look at the clock, only to realize that it would be dawn in more than three hours.
Squeezing and pressing the Jingming acupoint, Li Chen yawned belatedly after the maid went out: "Is there anything else you want to ask, Your Highness?"
Saenz seemed to have recovered from his contemplation: "Your request...is to go back?"
At this time, Li Chen was fully exhausted, and said without talking nonsense, "You have learned a lot."
"Even if it's just a dream?"
"Even if it's just a dream."
"Have you thought about the difficulty and risk of doing this?"
"I probably thought about it." Li Chen yawned again, his eyes were wet with tears, "I know, only the 'winner' of your family is eligible to touch the treasure at the once-in-a-century ceremony, I think It is theoretically impossible to encounter it."
He paused, Saenz didn't answer, so he continued: "This is not a fair treaty for me. I have to pay first, until I survive this 'battle', until you stand on the throne, until The chance to touch me came as expected—it was my turn to get my long-cherished wish fulfilled. But if you regret it then—or you didn’t plan to respond to me from the beginning—then what can I do except admit that I am unlucky?”
"Your request..." Saenz leaned back on the back of the chair, closed his eyes as if taking a nap, and said in a calm but reproachful tone, "You want to drag me into the water at that time."
An outsider touched the treasure, and used the power of the treasure to activate the teleportation array.Once discovered by other people, I am afraid that even Saenz will be accused by thousands of people, and his life may be in danger.
With this condition, the bet is that "the work will not be in vain" on the one hand, and "the work will not fall from the throne after completion" on the other.In terms of the result, Saenz's side is more serious; but in terms of the process, it is Li Chen who has been suffering until the end.
Li Chen answered politely, "Don't dare."
"I can't give you an answer right now." Saenz rested his elbows on the armrests on both sides, clasped his hands, lay on his back with his eyes closed, "rest at my side tonight. If you don't want to go to class tomorrow morning, talk to the butler Say, Sean will handle it."
Li Chen was taken aback for a moment, but nodded in response.
The butler knocked on the door and came in to lead the people. Li Chen wanted to stand up and say good night to Saenz, but he was in a trance and let his left foot rest on the foot of the table. furniture.
Sanz opened his eyes.
Li Chen said awkwardly, "...Sorry."
Saenz glanced at the butler, who came over and knelt down in front of Li Chen: "I'm sorry."
"Eh?" Seeing the housekeeper reaching out to pick up the warehouse manager without saying a word, Li Chen hurriedly said, "I didn't..."
The butler moved quickly, and Li Chen's ankle was exposed with a pull of his hand, and the necromancer's gift also appeared.Before Li Chen could finish his sentence, he saw the housekeeper pinch his ankle upwards, and said, "No bone was hurt, only a little red and swollen."
It was because of the ankle bracelet... Li Chen said directly: "I'm fine."
Saenz nodded, closed his eyes again and looked up.The housekeeper also put Li Chen's trousers back and stood up, returning to the seat just now.
Li Chen said, "Good night...maybe good morning."
Saenz waved his hand, as if he didn't intend to go back to his room to sleep.Li Chen looked at the expression of "Don't bother me" on the other side, and then turned around and left without hesitation.
"Li Chen."
Li Chen was taken aback by Saenz's sudden call, and immediately stopped in his tracks: "Huh?"
Forgive him for being a little stunned for a moment, but it's been too long since anyone called him by that name.Li Chen looked at the housekeeper a few steps ahead, thinking that Saenz was probably testing his stress response to the name "Li Chen".
Dear Highness, I have been called "Su Can" for so many years, where did you get the confidence?
What Saenz said was not about this: "You said during the day, 'Mastering the language between elements can be compatible with any element', do you have a specific idea?"
Don't you know what I'm talking about... Li Chen turned around and said, "No."
Saenz still kept his eyes closed, and gently waved his hands, giving him the meaning of "get out".
Anyone who has experience in job hunting knows that if the interviewer concludes with "we both think about it again", "I will notify you as soon as there is news", "please go back and wait for the notification", then there is only one meaning expressed.
——Then, there is no more.
Li Chen thought, even though he is an adult on the inside, on the outside he is still a kid who has just started studying. At this time, he would say to his boss, "The annual salary is 100 million!" It would be good if he didn't get beaten to death.
Li Chen thought so, and estimated that Saenz also thought the same way, which proves that His Royal Highness did not pay attention to him in the next two or three months.Li Chen was still doing what he was supposed to do. Seeing that it was almost the end of the term, Xiao En came to overthrow his guess.
"Holiday study session? Go to His Highness's mansion?" Li Chen was really taken aback. Although he had made some moves, the plot progressed too fast, "You remember correctly, Sean? It was indeed me ?”
"It's you, and you have to go back with His Royal Highness." Sean smiled habitually, "Generally speaking, it's normal for Saenlich, who has recommended students under his staff, to hold a vacation study session. But your name It's not right, even the 'new favorite' Wiggins has to go home first, and the middle of the holiday is over-you won the Big Fat, little Ruisen."
Li Chen's face turned green.Wouldn't it be a generation of newcomers changing the old look, one shot is higher than one shot...
One himself, one Wiggins, the flagpole who pulls hatred, Li Chen asked: "Anyone else, do you know?"
"Who else is there, just you 'Gang of Four'." Sean replied, "Oh, there may be Belen's vote, who knows?"
The "Gang of Four" refers to Wiggins, Lichen, Noah, and Mills.Except for Li Chen who spent 10 gold coins for the exam, the other three were directly or indirectly pushed by Saenz to Pesa, and Saenz's "preparation party members" are certain.Li Chen hangs out with them all day long, but in fact, he can't escape the connection with his fate.That's why he opened his mouth wide, thinking to give himself some time first, and then express his position after more preparations.
Just as he was thinking, Xiao En suddenly approached him: "Your Highness asked me to send a message, you... Do you understand what it means?"
What else could it mean?He agreed to the conditions, letting Xiao En and himself know that "from now on, we will be on the same rope and take care of each other"!
Saenlich, who doesn't even care about treasures... Li Chen sighed softly and nodded.
Sean patted Li Chen on the shoulder: "There is potential!"
Being patted on the shoulder by a teenage girl who said she had potential, Li Chen didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
Just as he was talking, someone knocked on the door of the pharmacy.As soon as Li Chen opened, Xia Luo stood at the door with a sullen face: "My brother told you to go as soon as you are on vacation, and Locke will come to pick you up."
Pfft... Before Li Chen could have a good time, Sean came from behind with that mocking smile, and took Li Chen's shoulder with his height advantage: "Oh, I'm sorry, you're late. This kid's vacation is already over. Got set to go."
Xia Luo was dumbfounded: "What?"
Li Chen waved his hand to tell Xiao En not to interrupt, and said, "I do have other arrangements. Do you want me to write a letter to you and forward it to your brother, or do you want me to relay it?"
"You...!" Xia Luo really couldn't blow up when facing Xiao En and Li Chen, so he had to reply, "You say."
Li Chen thought for a while and said, "Just tell your brother, if you want to pick me up, go to the mansion of His Royal Highness Saenz. He will understand."
If Locke really went to Saenz's mansion, whoever picked him up would be a trivial matter.The essence of this matter, to put it lightly, is that the Rock Eagle Mercenary Group and Saenz took over; if it is serious, it is Rock Eagle who sided with Saenz.
Xia Luo obviously didn't expect this level, he just opened his eyes wide: "You, you are going to the mansion of His Highness Saenz?!"
"Yeah." Sean interjected fearing that the world would be in chaos, "There are also Wiggins, Mills and Noah, anyone who wants to pick them up has to go there!"
"...I see." Xia Luo walked away sullenly.
Xiao En patted Li Chen on the shoulder: "If you have it, you're hooked on Yan Ying?"
Li Chen spread his hands: "I just told them that there is a medicine that has forgotten to put an ingredient, remember to come to me to perfect it when you need to use it."
Xiao En was amused: "They all believe this kind of nonsense?"
"No way, this is beyond their knowledge..." Li Chen also laughed.
Who told me to say that only three high-level banned drugs-"Transformation Potion"?
