After get off work, start speeding through another world

Chapter 43 Choose Queen or Teacher
"Thank you." Lotta wanted to stand up, but his trembling legs and pain in his butt made him fall to the ground again.

He put his hands on the ground, raised his buttocks slightly, looked at Ximu with a pleading expression, and said:

"please help me?"

"..."

Ximu was silent for a moment, then turned around and left indifferently, ignoring the request coming from behind.

Leave the mansion and spend about ten minutes arriving at the dwarf master's blacksmith shop.

At this time, he had changed into a set of clothes and looked like a rich man, even though he got this set of clothes from a noble family.

In front of the blacksmith shop.

The dwarf master held the hammer, looked at the knight outside the palace, scratched his head and said, "I didn't expect you to deliver it so quickly."

"These meteorites can allow you to strengthen your weapons to plus four." Ximu took out a bag of meteorites, and the dwarf master took the meteorites after hearing this, opened the bag and looked at it, confirming that it was indeed the meteorites needed to upgrade the equipment.

Then he asked curiously.

"What does strengthening plus four mean?"

"There is another special weapon that you need to make." Ximu took out a piece of paper and handed it over. It was the design blueprint given to him by the Death Witch for making a golden needle.

The dwarf master took it and looked at it, then looked up at Ximu and asked, "You are infected by the Fire of Surtur, right?"

Ximu didn't answer.

However, the dwarf master talked to himself, looking very melancholy, "Perhaps because we are the ethnic group closest to Surtur, some dwarves began to worship Surtur. They were crazy to a certain extent. In order to burn I have left this world, and I am always thinking of ways to unblock the Fire Giant Surtur."

He sighed and asked Xi Mu.

"You encountered them, right?"

"..."

Ximu did not answer, and the dwarf sighed when he saw this, his expression showed a little guilt, and he felt pity for this unlucky knight.

He looked down at the blueprint.

"A very exquisite design. As long as the golden needle is successfully created, it can indeed suppress the Fire of Surtur."

Under normal circumstances, people infected by the Fire of Surtur will inevitably die. However, the design of this "golden needle" can actually suppress the Fire of Surtur, although the solution is relatively simple. evil ways.

Since the Fire of Surtur wants to burn life, it only needs to seal "life" and let life reach a state close to death, but without death.

In such a state, Surtur does not have much life to burn, and the vitality overflowing from the seal can ensure that the infected people survive.

The person who designed this set of golden needles seems to have a very good understanding of what it takes for a person to die.

"So can it be done?" Ximu asked again. He had no intention of continuing the conversation with the dwarf master, otherwise it would definitely trigger a series of conversations and reveal some information that he had known for a long time. That was really unnecessary.

The dwarf master was silent for a moment after hearing this, and gently touched the design with his fingers, smiling confidently, "No problem, I am the master of forging."

"I need the golden needle urgently." Ximu added, and the dwarf master laughed when he heard this, looking very confident.

"Understood, I will give priority to creating the golden needle and give you the cost price. I really won't ask for extravagant prices this time."

It's just because you keep asking for prices that you always get hacked to death.

Ximu thought so, but did not say it out loud. He nodded to the dwarf master, and then turned around and left without hesitation.

Now that the matter of forging the golden needle has been completed, he should next think about killing the children of the Magic Queen.

Return to hotel.

Push the door open and enter.

"Boss, you have become more handsome!" A voice of surprise and surprise came. Ximu looked along the sound source and saw Geed standing up from the sofa and greeting him.

Jade put his hands behind his back and looked up and down at Ximu in a suit with his lively eyes, seemingly very surprised.

"Boss, you used to wear that armor every day. It seemed like you never dressed up seriously."

Ximu retorted: "Isn't the Red Dragon Blood Armor super handsome?"

In fact, he wears the red dragon blood armor not only because it has the characteristic of increased defense against dragons, but also because the red dragon blood armor is very handsome.

Otherwise, he can now find a more powerful armor, then find a shield that can fully counterattack, and then strengthen both the shield and the armor to the fullest.

At that time, even if he stood still, with this set of armor, most people would not be able to break through the defense.

However, he is not interested in the shield reflux gameplay, not only because it is too bulky, but also not handsome enough to reflect his skills as a multi-game player.

"He is handsome, but he can get tired of it." Jade said, and Ximu looked at Jade with a disappointed look and sighed:

"Are you tired of me?"

"No...no." Geed subconsciously retorted, but Ximu sighed and walked towards the sofa in the living room in disappointment.

When Geed saw this, he was silent for a moment, and suddenly his eyes widened: "Wait a minute, boss, don't you think this is weird?"

"No need to explain, I understand." Ximu sat on the sofa and poured himself a cup of black tea. Jade twitched the corner of his mouth when he saw this. If anyone heard their conversation, they might misunderstand something.

Aslaqi who was standing by saw this with great interest. She never thought that Ximu was a rigid knight. Otherwise, he would not have used so many despicable methods when defeating the dragon, let alone dragging her along. Pay for the wrongdoer.

Therefore, she doesn't feel that there is anything against Xie Mu's bad taste now, and she understands Xie Mu's character.

In essence, he is still an upright knight.

"Boss, won't your conscience hurt if you... bully a maid?" Jade came over and pushed a plate of fruit on the table in front of Ximu.

Her cheeks were slightly bulging, as if she was a little angry.

In response, Ximu shook his head, picked up an apple on the table, took a bite, and said casually: "I have never treated you as a maid."

Having said this, he faced Geed's puzzled gaze.

"Except you can't help me give birth to a baby, it seems like you can help me with anything."

"Boss, should I be happy?" Jade's face fell, while Ximu nodded seriously and said to her:

"Of course you have to be happy. I affirm your value in every aspect."

"Hahaha, it's really a subtle affirmation." Aslaqi laughed out loud. She held her chin in her delicate hand and looked at Geed, whose cheeks were slightly bulging, and smiled.

"But Geed probably also wants you to affirm the value of a lady."

"Lady, I probably can't be counted." Geed is very self-aware. Her previous life was accompanied by death. The blood on her hands was not only that of giants, but also humans, dwarves, elves and other life forms.

It has nothing to do with ladies anyway.

"If you want to learn lady etiquette, I can arrange a teacher for you." Aslaki said with a smile. Jade shook her head when she heard this. From her point of view, becoming a lady meant restraining her minions, which would make her very insecure.

And the boss doesn’t care whether she is a lady or not.

"It's getting late, I plan to take a rest." Ximu glanced at the sky outside the window and said to the two of them:
"The master will come to me to teach me in the evening, so he needs to maintain his energy."

"Before resting, let's eat first." Aslaqi stood up gracefully and pointed to the door, "Let's go, I will take you to have a good meal."

"What to eat?" Ximu followed. This is the benefit of getting along with a rich woman. As long as Aslaqi's favorability reaches a certain level, you can save a lot of time in spending money.

After dinner.

Went back to the hotel and rested for a while.

With the sky darkening.

Ximu, who was refining his magic power with his eyes closed, suddenly felt someone beside the bed. He opened his eyes and looked over, only to see his teacher Hecate sitting beside the bed.

Wearing a loose magician's robe, she held her chin with her delicate hands, carefully looked at the awakening apprentice, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Apprentice, you have a good sense of vigilance."

"If you want to assassinate me, teacher, I probably won't even have time to react." Ximu shook his head and sat up.

When Hecate heard this, she looked out the window and said, "The person who wants to assassinate you really exists and is hiding near the hotel."

She looked at her confused apprentice.

"They are followers of the Fire Giant Surtur. They want to snatch your Sword of Light to unseal the Fire Giant Surtur."

Ximu sighed and said as if he was distressed, "It's really annoying."

"Do you need me to help you deal with them?" Hecate asked, and Ximu quickly shook his head and explained to her.

"Since I caused the trouble, let me solve it myself."

Hecate didn't force it. Since the apprentice wanted to solve it by herself, she just had to make sure that the apprentice didn't die.

Everyone has to go through experience to have a chance to grow.

"Then let's start today's lecture." After saying that, she lightly clapped her palms, followed by a sudden change in her vision.

Ximu found that he had reached the rooftop of the hotel, and Hecate was sitting on the edge of the tall building next to him, looking up at the stars.

"Question, is fate certain?"

"..."

Ximu pretended to think for a moment, and said a little uncertainly: "The fate is probably determined. Everyone's fate is reflected in the starry sky."

Speaking of which, he added another sentence.

"And if fate cannot be determined, then the omniscient God...maybe cannot be truly omniscient, so destiny is certain."

Hecate nodded and did not tell her apprentice whether his fate was certain, but asked another question:
"Apprentice, do you want your destiny to be known or unknown?"

"I have never thought about this problem." Ximu replied. He didn't care whether his fate was fixed at all. What he cared about was whether his actions were of his own will.

However, the setting of the game Mystic Door is that the moment the omniscient god was born, the world was destined to be known and certain.
This has nothing to do with the will of the omniscient God, but is inevitable after His birth.

The player's act of hacking the omniscient god to death is a heroic act in terms of consequences.

Of course, the premise is not to go to the Ashes ending.

"Sooner or later, apprentice, you will also have to face this problem." Hecate shook her head without giving an in-depth explanation.

She looked at the sky, the night breeze ruffling her hair.

"Everyone's destiny lies in the starry sky, but there is a group of people whose destiny does not exist in the starry sky."

Ximu nodded: "Witches and demons, right?"

"Yes, they are free of this restriction." Hecate looked at the stars that represented her own destiny. "As a teacher, there is no way for me to see the fate of demons and witches."

That's why you don't know that I'm related to the Death Witch.

Ximu thought to himself, leading the conversation, "Does the teacher also want his own destiny, without showing the stars?"

"It's about breaking away from the stars and letting your own destiny be free." Hecate did not hide her thoughts from her apprentice.

"Just for a moment, my master's destiny can escape from the starry sky, and I can become the witch of destiny and look down on my destiny from a higher perspective."

"But if you want to escape the starry sky, you can only die."

Ximu was silent for a moment and asked: "Teacher, you...should have something to do, right?"

"There is a way, and that is to find someone with a similar destiny to mine, and let her stars cover my destiny, so that I can be promoted to a witch." Hecate told the truth, and Ximu showed a thoughtful expression when he heard this. .

"Teacher, are you talking about the Magic Queen?"

Having said this, he shook his head again.

"No, if she is the Queen of Magic, she cannot allow her fate to be manipulated by others."

"My teacher is also in trouble." Hecate frowned. If she wanted to completely control a person's fate, the prerequisite was to fully control a person's life, death and thoughts, or to ensure that the person was completely loyal to herself.

And it was obvious that the Magic Queen could not agree.

"Unless something unexpected happens and the Magic Queen's strength is greatly reduced, the teacher will have the opportunity to manipulate the Magic Queen." Ximu analyzed calmly.

In fact, he came to the Magic Kingdom early. In her heyday, the current Magic Queen was in very good shape, both in terms of magic power and mental state.

If it had come three or four months later, the Magic Queen would have died suddenly in an accident because of her children. Only the fourth prince who was suspected of murdering his brother and sister would have survived.

At that time, the Magic Queen will be greatly hit, and she will desperately invest in taboo research, hoping to transform into a witch and resurrect her daughter.

Due to setting problems, the Magic Queen is absolutely unable to become a witch. This will cause the Magic Queen to be traumatized by the failure of the ritual, and her mental state will fall into semi-madness.

At that time, the plot unfolded by cooperating with Hecate to confirm whether the Magic Queen was weak, until it was confirmed that the time was right to invade the palace and capture the Magic Queen.

As for the fourth prince who is suspected of killing the brother and sister, he will also come forward at this time and say that the killing of the brother and sister was planned by Teacher Hecate.

The purpose is to guide the Magic Queen to the point of no return, so as to find an opportunity to seize this country.

There is no need to elaborate on the subsequent plot.

It's nothing more than the fourth prince giving players a chance to choose, to stand beside the Magic Queen and fight against the evil and ambitious Hecate together.

Still standing firmly by Hecate's side to capture the Queen of Magic.
