My portable grandfather refreshes every week

Chapter 294 Live well

If he had a cross in his hand, he would have liked to stick it into the ground.

After folding and reassembling the little guy for a long time, until he had completely turned into a human-shaped light bulb, he began to try to fly into the sky.

Eisen asked, "Is your magical humanoid spaceship reliable?"

He always felt that this thing was a bit too abstract, and now that the two of them were making a scene, his original sadness and worries had decreased a lot.

"Don't worry, it's perfectly safe," Xue Dinglu said.

After their tinkering and calculations, Xiao Jiang was able to travel at least 200 million kilometers in space. Furthermore, Xiao Jiang had placed its spatial positioning coordinates on Xue's Law, so it could be transmitted back as quickly as possible in any emergency, instead of being stuck in a cave like the disastrous news of the cave diving operation.

"It's best to be back before dark," Xue Dinglu said.

"Good, good, good! Watch me soar into the sky!" The young general flew straight into the sky in an instant, instantly becoming a tiny dot in the sky.

Looking at their speed, Eisen swallowed hard. At that moment, he realized just how much of a devastating blow these two were to the local natives.

So he tentatively asked, "Can I learn magic?"

In his view, this kind of knowledge should be extremely valuable, belonging to the ultimate wisdom that needs to be held in one's hands forever.

However, Xue's Law simply replied, "Sure."

Such a decisive answer stunned him.

Since Xue had nothing better to do, he decided to teach this local who had persevered in this constantly restarting world.

Following the old necromancer Xue's method, he began to try to teach this middle-aged man.

Logically speaking, the world of Mind Flayers should be a world filled with magic and chaos, but for some reason, what I've seen and heard this day makes it seem more like a world without magic, just like Earth.

Eisen quickly regained control of the magic and unleashed a holy light spell an hour later.

Xue Dinglu nodded. He was indeed very talented. No wonder he was a Mind Flayer. Even a middle-aged man like him had such strong magical talent.

However, after casting the Holy Light spell, Eisen did not continue; instead, he frowned deeply.

"What's wrong?" Xue asked.

"Is magic something that will keep decreasing and gradually disappear as long as it doesn't condense?" Eisen asked a question that surprised Xue's law.

"Hmm?" Xue Dinglu asked in confusion, then his expression instantly turned serious, and he asked earnestly, "Wait, let me ask in detail. Assuming that casting Holy Light requires 10 points of magic power, how will your magic power change?"

Eisen organized his thoughts and estimated, "When I am gathering magic power, I can gather about 12 points of magic power per hour, but 6 points of magic power will naturally be lost every hour, as if it is being drawn away. And when I am not gathering magic power, about 6 to 8 points of magic power will naturally be lost every hour."

When Aisen expressed his feelings, Xue Dinglu immediately showed a look of astonishment.

Magic does not naturally dissipate; on the contrary, with eating, resting, and the natural growth of the body, the increase in physical and spiritual energy will naturally cause magic to rise slightly.

Although the increase is not significant, it will definitely not disappear without a reason.

Unlike Eisen, who seems to have Kakashi with the Sharingan installed, whose body constantly drains magical energy like a broken bellows.

It's as if something is constantly draining his magic, leaving the world in a state of absolute magiclessness.

Even according to Xue's Law, the original race of Mind Flayers must have been a race with an exceptionally high aptitude for magic, but their society has developed to the point where they are almost completely devoid of magic. In fact, Xue's Law and the young general are, in Eisen's eyes, "legendary mages".

This shouldn't be the case, so there's only one truth.

All mind flayers in this world are born with their magic drained every moment, and they themselves are constantly accumulating magic, but this magic is stripped away as soon as it appears, which results in them living in an environment with absolutely no magic.

This also resulted in all Mind Flayers possessing terrifying magical talent.

They are born into an environment where magic is extracted and exploited, and this state has persisted for countless years. They are essentially in a state of constant magic extraction, where they are constantly being drained of their magic.

For a long time, when they came to an environment where magic was no longer drained, everyone was a natural genius, like a magical sprite!

Just like the God King, who became a near-5th-tier mage in just over 20 years and was able to fight angels head-on, such talent would be considered a "chosen one" in any world.

But in this mind flayer world, these chosen ones are mass-produced!

They are like magical weapons!

And where has the magic power that is being drained every moment gone for countless people like Eisen who live in this reset apocalypse?

At this moment, Xue Dinglu connected all the information in his mind. The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed. This terrifying world might be even more complex than he had imagined, and the young general...

"Buzz!" Suddenly, a spatial teleport appeared next to Xue Dinglu. It was Xiao Jiang who had teleported over. However, he had completely lost his previous calm demeanor and was in a sorry state. His body was covered with damage that would only occur when he was attacked by magic. At the same time, all the dozens of buffs that Xue Dinglu had stacked on him were completely consumed.

He immediately said, "Quickly! The sky in this world is an illusion. After I reached the end of the sky, I triggered an automatic counterattack magic device!"

The moment he finished speaking, a terrifying beam of light struck from the horizon.

In the blink of an eye, it felt like we had traveled thousands of miles.

"Buzz!"

"Innovation Century" automatically blocked Xue's Law. The light cannon was deflected by the book. However, after being deflected, the attack also blasted open the neighboring mountain. Countless trees were completely reduced to dust in the terrifying light and heat, and a layer of twisted obsidian was scorched on the ground within a radius of nearly one kilometer.

When Xue Luding turned his head, he found that countless attacks were raining down on them from the sky, making Xue Luding's scalp tingle.

"What exactly did you attract here, kid?" Xue Dinglu asked immediately.

"Automatic counterattack device! Let's find a safe place first, this is not the place to talk!" He immediately put one hand on Xue Luding and the other on Aisen, and disappeared from the spot in an instant.

Where they disappeared, countless light beams rained down like raindrops in the next instant, and mushroom clouds rose abruptly.

This scene instantly shattered the original tranquility, plunging the once peaceful and serene North Peak City into complete panic.

The next moment, Xue and his two companions arrived at a safe house in the sewers.

After they disappeared from the ground, the beam cannon that had been locked onto the young general vanished, seemingly indicating that he had been eliminated.

The young general was panting heavily, his whole body was soaked in sweat, and the holy light that Xue Dinglu had blessed him with for more than ten layers was now almost exhausted, and there were some strange wounds on his body.

Xue Dinglu immediately healed his injuries with the cursed blood, and he collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.

"What exactly is happening in the sky?" Xue Dinglu asked.

And it wasn't just Xue's law; Eisen's expression was extremely distorted. He now seemed to know a deeper secret of the world, but this secret was making him tremble uncontrollably.

The young general slammed his fist on the ground and said, "Damn it, the sky in this world is fake, it's a texture, the sun is fake, and the moon is fake too. After I flew to an altitude of more than 10,000 meters, I didn't fly out of the atmosphere, but instead saw countless magic cannons aimed at me!"

He seemed quite resentful, but it was clear that he had tried to cross that sky barrier, but failed, and perhaps even suffered heavy bombardment.

Judging from the fact that Xue's buffs were almost gone, if he hadn't had those buffs, he probably wouldn't have come back injured, but would have been dead.

And they also brought back some very bad information along the way.

Xue closed his eyes, and all the information about this world came together in his mind.

A night of carnage and eeriness, time that keeps resetting, magic that flows away forever, a world consciousness that cannot be communicated with, and a false sky filled with magical cannons.

This world seems to be a deliberately created breeding ground for venomous insects, where every day is a breeding ground for venomous insects, and each reset is to accumulate more power for the next breeding ground.

"I think I've found the key to breaking the deadlock." Xue Dinglu stretched out his hand, and a branch slowly grew out of it.

"The Divine Tree? You stuffed this thing inside your body?" The young general was shocked. It was the first time he had ever seen someone so audacious as to stuff a Divine Tree inside their body. This feeling was no less than the horror of an Earthling finding out that someone had stuffed the Ebola virus into their body and nurtured it.

"That's not the point. Now I'm going to try to seize control of this world's divine tree through my divine tree," Xue Dinglu said.

"You mean...?" The young man was stunned for a moment.

“This world might be a world born on a divine tree.” Xue Dinglu directly stated his guess. “The entire planet is a divine tree, and all these people live on this giant divine tree, while the area we are in is a petri dish.”

"It's like a beaker used to culture bacteria in a laboratory."

If Eisen's magic hadn't been constantly drained, and if the young general hadn't crashed into the false sky, Xue's Law wouldn't have made such a bold guess.

But now, he decided to continue along this line of thought, by planting the divine tree, extending it through the earth, until it reached the point of contact with the "outside world".

Only magic can counter magic, so he decided to give it a try, since even if he failed, it shouldn't be a big problem.

Actually, besides the Divine Tree, if he had the modifier, he could easily seize control of this world. According to his mother, the one who came with him this time should be Tyrannosaurus God. If Tyrannosaurus God really is his personal grandfather, perhaps there would be a better way.

But for now, this silliest plan is all we can do.

Eisen hesitated, though he had only had a little over half a day. In that time, he had witnessed the extraordinary feats of these two foreign magicians, far exceeding the intelligence he and his companions had gathered.

"What can I do?" The old man decided to do something and stood up.

"Live well, survive tonight, and perhaps everything will change afterward," Xue Dinglu reminded him.
