Day of Imprisonment

#304 - Enter Node 7

Just as Zhang Zhe himself said, he couldn't guarantee other places, but in Node 2, no one could threaten him.

Even if those intermediate witches who infiltrated Node 2 joined forces, Zhang Zhe wasn't afraid.

Assassination, fighting, and strife had permeated the long past, but Zhang Zhe realized that if he continued like this, it would never end. Later, Zhang Zhe changed his strategy, learning from Luo Xi's way of considering and handling problems.

He wanted to control the situation and actively create a balance.

The balance between the Dark Furnace Tavern and the Witch Alliance.

That's why the message 'Luo Xi is back' needed to be passed on.

But this was just an insignificant step in a grand game of chess.

As a chess player, one must consider the overall situation.

The carriage arrived outside Cinderella's house.

"That girl Cinderella is really good-looking, perfectly matching the description of Cinderella in fairy tales. I don't know how you made her in the first place? I've always had a question, are many of the people here the Withered?" Zhang Zhe kept asking questions along the way, and this was just one of his many questions.

"Aren't they NPCs?" Luo Xi asked back.

"They are plot characters, but all plot characters within the scene cannot appear out of nowhere. They are either Remnants who become company employees, or the Withered. You told me this," Zhang Zhe said. Luo Xi glanced at him and then said something that seemed unrelated: "That room of yours is actually my room, right?"

Zhang Zhe nodded: "Yes, you left it for me, and you agreed to let me use it."

"What about the door?"

"The same, you left it!" Zhang Zhe knew why Luo Xi was bringing this up. He immediately said, "I've looked at those messy marks on the door many times, and I've analyzed them. The marks on it were all carved by you personally. I know Cinderella's name is inside, but frankly, I don't know why you carved her name on it."

Luo Xi didn't know the answer to this question either.

However, since it was the former self who specially carved it on the door, it must have a special meaning.

Then, contacting and understanding these people carved on the door is naturally the best, and only, choice.

Gray Shadow appeared.

As the watcher arranged here by the Dark Furnace Tavern, he had already noticed when the carriage stopped outside the house, and when he saw Luo Xi, who showed no signs of burn scars, and his boss getting out of the carriage together, he was even more stunned.

In that instant, he thought of many possibilities.

Most of them were not good things.

He thought the most likely scenario was that Luo Xi had been caught by the boss and had confessed the situation here.

The boss was here to question him.

But if that were the case, the female receptionist would have tipped him off in advance.

And no matter what, he knew that since the boss had come, he, as the watcher here, had to come forward.

The uneasy mood reached its peak and transformed into confusion when the boss nodded slightly and then ordered him to continue guarding and monitoring.

Unfortunately, neither Luo Xi nor Zhang Zhe was in the mood to explain anything to him now.

Because it was morning, Cinderella's stepmother and two stepsisters were still sleeping.

"Let them continue to sleep, don't disturb us." This was the temporary order Zhang Zhe issued after thinking of this.

Gray Shadow went to take care of it.

It was actually very easy to accomplish this task; a little sleeping potion could achieve the effect perfectly.

In the back room, Luo Xi found Mad Lion and Cinderella.

Mad Lion immediately stood up when he saw Luo Xi.

"Big Brother, you're back!"

While speaking, his eyes looked at Zhang Zhe.

The latter also looked at Mad Lion, his expression slightly changed.

Obviously, this was a Remnant with great potential in terms of physique and physical combat power.

Zhang Zhe had seen too many so-called geniuses.

They excelled in various different aspects. For example, the most unsolvable and most powerful person he had seen was Luo Xi, who had no weaknesses in any aspect.

In his eyes, Luo Xi could do things that others couldn't. He was someone who could see through all secrets and even had a chance to break the Day of Entrapment.

He was the real number one.

And no one could compare to him.

And this strong man in front of him was the best he had ever met in terms of physique alone.

Also, without a doubt.

"I'm not mistaken, this guy's physique hasn't even been strengthened, but he has already reached the Elite C level. This physical foundation is too strong. If he gets the chance to be strengthened, wouldn't it be possible for him to directly reach the Elite B level, or even the A level?"

Zhang Zhe felt that if this were his subordinate, then he would only need to use some means, and this strong man would be able to kill an intermediate witch with his bare hands.

Promising.

"Our own people!" Luo Xi said at this time. Hearing this, Zhang Zhe felt that the strong man's eyes softened a lot when he looked at him.

Obviously, before this, this guy had always been on guard.

If Luo Xi gave the order, the other party would definitely launch an attack on him without hesitation.

"Godfather!" Cinderella also ran over at this time.

Her eyes were already very different from when they first met.

Before, she was enduring, suppressing the hatred and madness in her heart.

But Luo Xi's request to her was not to suppress this emotion.

But to release it.

Because that hatred and anger are related to Cinderella's 'magic', especially after possessing the [Unknown Magic Core] and the [Magic Ring], her changes are very big.

"Godfather, just now when I was meditating, I even heard some strange whispers, someone was trying to establish contact with me... It was like someone was calling me..."

Luo Xi asked, "Did you respond?"

Cinderella shook her head: "No!"

"Then, did the other party reveal their identity?"

"No."

When talking to Luo Xi, Cinderella looked at Zhang Zhe, she seemed to察觉to sense some aura, her face was serious, and she was wary.

Then she secretly leaned over and whispered to Luo Xi: "That person also has magical fluctuations on him."

Luo Xi really knew about this.

Zhang Zhe had said it before.

After losing control of Fairy Tale Town, the other party had actually lost his identity as an administrator.

If he wanted to survive in Fairy Tale Town, he could only explore new sources of power and ability.

Without a doubt, 'magic' is crucial in Fairy Tale Town.

In Zhang Zhe's words, there are also male wizards in some nodes in Fairy Tale Town.

Moreover, their strength is not weak.

He used some methods and time to obtain the inheritance of a certain male wizard's ability.

Necromancer.

It is a profession that sounds absurd and only exists in some fantasy games.

But the entire Fairy Tale Town is itself a product of fantasy and absurdity.

Luo Xi called Cinderella to the room alone.

When only the two of them were left, Cinderella, who had been a little well-behaved before, completely let herself go.

"Godfather, I didn't say everything just now. Actually, through meditation, I have already mastered some spells. I have even tried them." Looking at her appearance, there was a kind of uncontrollable excitement.

"Still need to be cautious, because spells are a double-edged sword, behind every spell, there is a powerful witch."

"I don't think this is a problem. I can be sure that they know of my existence. It's like an ant nest in the backyard. I sometimes go to see those ants, and even feed them some breadcrumbs... To them, I am a powerful existence, but they may not be able to see me, and I don't care about a nest of small ants. What I mean is, the current me is like an ant. I can't stop those who can see my existence. Since this is the case, if someone feeds me 'breadcrumbs', why not eat them? Only when I'm full will I have a chance..."

Luo Xi glanced at Cinderella with some surprise.

The other party is very smart.

Luo Xi taught Cinderella the spell that Lin Qiqi had taught him.

The latter learned it as soon as she heard it.

After Luo Xi told her not to cause magic resonance when practicing, Cinderella took off the [Magic Ring] and practiced the spell without magic activation.

After the third recitation, the ashes in the fireplace had been attracted by some invisible force, rotating. Then, a terrifying claw stretched out from the rotating ashes.

The ashes were like connecting to some strange dimension, summoning some kind of monster from inside.

Luo Xi stopped the other party in time.

The summoning ceremony triggered by the spell was interrupted.

The mysterious claw immediately retracted.

Cinderella was also very surprised after knowing that she had directly caused the summoning ceremony just by practicing the spell.

She didn't wear the [Magic Ring], not even a magic wand. She only relied on her own basic magic power to recite the spell, but she could actually make the spell work.

This is definitely considered a gift.

Obviously, one of the reasons why Luo Xi once carved Cinderella's name on the door panel may be because she might have incredible talent.

She is more like the protagonist in a standard 'online novel'.

She possesses the strongest talent, one in a million existence, the kind that can become a master overnight.

"At the latest tomorrow, we will go to Node 7." Luo Xi said.

"What is Node 7?" Cinderella asked curiously.

"A place where you can show your skills." Luo Xi leaned back in his chair, intending to rest for a while.

"I will do whatever Godfather asks me to do. Also, there is one thing I want to do before leaving..." Cinderella seemed to have something unspeakable, but before she could say it, Luo Xi nodded: "Go ahead, as long as you are happy!"

Cinderella was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed, and then jumped out.

A few hours later, the Gray Shadow responsible for monitoring here discovered that Cinderella's stepmother and two sisters were gone.

Instead, there were three raised mounds of earth under the tree behind the yard.

It could be seen that they were newly dug.

A faint smell of blood could still be smelled in the air.

After Luo Xi knew about this, he only said, 'A kind girl'.

When it was evening, Luo Xi borrowed Zhang Zhe's carriage to go to the church near the bell tower. When he came back, he immediately called Zhang Zhe over.

"Plans have changed, I need to enter Node 7 immediately!"
