#284: Ahead of time starts


After a double-hour, Dark Moon Church branch foothold. 一个时辰后,冥月教分会据点。 Shi Mu sits at the wooden table, is looking at the meteoric iron black blade and short club in hand, somewhat smiles bitterly. 石牧坐在木桌旁,看着手中的陨铁黑刀和短棍,不禁有几分苦笑。 After a just now attempt, he discovered that melts gold/metal Xi the venom really not to respond to the present meteoric iron blade stick. 经过方才的一番尝试,他发现化金蜥的毒液果然对如今的陨铁刀棍没有丝毫反应。 Then, own these two while convenient weapons, although becomes destroys the hardest defenses, but because is unable to inscribe symbol array, the prestige can also reduce much. 如此一来,自己的这两件趁手兵器虽然变得无坚不摧,但由于无法铭刻符阵,威能也减少了不少。 In he was considering whether purchases two high grade Magic Tool while convenient when again, before the body , the black smoke same place, Yan Luo comes again, the delightful female voice resounds in Shi Mu's mind: 就在他考虑着是否再去购置两柄趁手的上品法器时,身前黑烟一起,烟罗再次现身而出,悦耳的女子声音在石牧脑海响起: Stick borrows me.” “棍子借我。” This...... the stick had/left some conditions.” Shi Mu slightly hesitates, so returns said. “这……棍子出了些状况。”石牧略一迟疑,如此回道。 The Yan Luo both eyes purple soul fire flashes, does not seem to understand the meaning of Shi Mu. 烟罗双目紫色魂火闪动,似乎没明白石牧的意思。 symbol array on stick did not have, now no longer is Magic Tool.” Shi Mu said. “棍子上的符阵没了,如今已不再是法器。”石牧道。 It doesn't matter! Gives me to be good the stick.” “无所谓!把棍子给我就行。” Yan Luo, are you......” in the Shi Mu heart move, open the mouth to ask. 烟罗,你是不是……”石牧心中一动,开口问道。 He remembered Yan Luo for the first time situation of borrowing the meteoric iron black stick. 他不由想起了烟罗第一次借陨铁黑棍的情形。 However has not waited for him saying that the body the wind sweeps across a while ago, the meteoric iron black stick in hand had then lost the trace. 然而未等其说完,身前一阵风席卷而过,手中的陨铁黑棍便已失去了踪影。 Raised the head, Yan Luo is gathering to size up at present the meteoric iron black stick. 抬起头,烟罗正将陨铁黑棍凑到眼前打量起来。 Also has not seen Yan Luo to make what movement, the meteoric iron black stick surface in his hand appears faintly dark black light, the place of black light filling the air, the space as if twisted. 也没见烟罗做什么动作,其手中的陨铁黑棍表面隐隐浮现出一层乌沉沉黑光,黑光弥漫之处,空间似乎都扭曲了起来。 black light flashes passes, all returned to normal, all that as if had a moment ago are the misconception are ordinary. 黑光一闪即逝,一切又恢复了平静,仿佛刚才发生的一切都是错觉一般。 Shi Mu dumbfounded looks at the meteoric iron black stick, when black light appeared a moment ago, his clear feeling the aura that Gold Sword was more intense. 石牧目瞪口呆的看着陨铁黑棍,刚才黑光出现之时,他真切的感受到了一股远比金钱剑强烈的气息。 Spirit Stone?” In the Yan Luo eye the soul fire beats, as if meteoric iron black stick in quite satisfied hand, said. 灵石呢?”烟罗眼中魂火跳动,似乎颇为满意手中的陨铁黑棍,又说道。 Shi Mu as if expected early generally, put out bags that from the dust vast abstention directly were loaded with thousand Spirit Stone. Threw to Yan Luo conveniently. 石牧似乎早料到了一般,直接从尘渺戒中拿出一个装有一千灵石的袋子。随手扔给了烟罗 Also wants!” “还要!” How many...... wants?” “……要多少?” Comes four bags again.” “再来四袋。” Shi Mu corner of the eye twitches, this bag is entire thousand Spirit Stone, five bags want five thousand Spirit Stone. This Yan Luo said superficially. 石牧眼角一阵抽搐,这一袋就是整整一千灵石,五袋可是要五千灵石。这烟罗却说得轻描淡写。 Doesn't give?” “给不给?” Gives you yes, but you first told me. You know this meteoric iron material quality? Also, how are you spiritual energy consumption in stick completely?” The Shi Mu one breath asked two questions. “给你是可以,但你先告诉我。你是不是认识这种陨铁材质?还有,你是怎么将棍中的灵气消耗殆尽的?”石牧一口气问了两个问题。 This...... I do not know, only knows, this touch, is very familiar.” Yan Luo strokes gently the meteoric iron black stick in hand, the both eyes soul fire is beating, said. “这个……我也不知道,只知道,这种触感,很熟悉。”烟罗摩挲着手中的陨铁黑棍,双目魂火跳动,如此说道。 Shi Mu hears word, slightly hesitates. According to the word took out four bags of Spirit Stone, threw. 石牧闻言,略一沉吟。还是依言取出了四袋灵石,扔了过去。 Yan Luo put out a hand to receive the Spirit Stone bag, the body black smoke welled up, vanished in void. 烟罗伸手接过灵石袋,身上黑烟一涌,就消失在了虚空中。 After Yan Luo walks, Shi Mu is looking at the meteoric iron black blade in hand dull, complexion Yin is clearly uncertain. 烟罗走后,石牧呆呆地看着手中的陨铁黑刀,脸色一阵阴晴不定起来。 From the Yan Luo mouth, unifies it to absorb the spiritual energy to increase the performance of weight, this meteoric iron material quality should be quite uncommon, otherwise by Yan Luo present strength, why also to borrow? 烟罗口中所述,结合其可以吸收灵气增加重量的表现来看,这种陨铁材质应该颇为不凡,否则以烟罗如今的实力,又何必来借? Read and this. In his heart somewhat is faintly excited, research that immediately is unwilling meteoric iron black blade in hand. 一念及此。他心中隐隐有些兴奋起来,当即心有不甘的研究起手中的陨铁黑刀来。 Finally spent entire day, tried many methods continually. Has not studied a reason why to come. 结果花了整整一天,一连尝试了很多方法。都没有研究出个所以然来。 He has, helpless temporarily gives up, but in the heart regarding the interest decrease slightest of meteoric iron blade stick, has not actually gone out to purchase the Magic Tool thought that also eliminates. 他只得无奈暂时放弃,但心中对于陨铁刀棍的兴趣却并没有减退分毫,出去购买法器的念头,也就此打消。 In the following two days, he continues to close in the room, draws up Talisman to come, before planning the upsurge while competition, the high price sells. 接下来的两天里,他继续将自己关在房间里,绘制起符箓来,打算趁着比试前的热潮,高价卖出。 Finally on the 2nd day at dusk, Dark Moon Church Main Altar issued the notice suddenly.

The Luo day ghost king Origin Energy has not restored now, if not this time Tang Palace Master revenge keeps off in front cherished, perhaps was only the severe wound is not so necessarily simple.” Liu An calm saying. “此事有些蹊跷,据其所述,是一个周身白甲附体的家伙干的,和偷袭唐殿主那具水晶骷髅的是同一个家伙。罗天鬼王如今元气尚未恢复,此次若非唐殿主复仇心切挡在前面,恐怕未必只是重伤这般简单了。”柳岸语气平静的说道。 Now the war tends to be tight. Tang Palace Master actually dies a violent death, is really the misfortune never singly comes.” The red garment young girl sighed lightly. “如今战事趋紧。唐殿主却死于非命,真是祸不单行。”红衫少女轻叹了口气。 During the speeches, the gate was shoved open.

Let them win the time for the person of going to sea.” Liu An calm saying, the look is indifferent exceptionally. “直接带回总坛,也留一些在曲阳城。让他们为出海之人争取时间吧。”柳岸语气平静的说道,眼神冷漠异常。 Di Feng looks at Liu An eyes, in the heart trembles, nods. 狄峰看着柳岸双眸,心中一颤,点了点头。 Di Feng turned the head to look at people one outside conference site, the corners of the mouth moved, as if wanted to say anything, but has not said. 狄峰转头看了外面会场上的众人一眼,嘴角动了一下,似乎想要说什么,不过还是没有说出口。 Time was up, this then starts.” Liu An said, takes a step to walk toward the palace outside. “时间差不多了,这便开始吧。”柳岸说道,迈步朝着殿外走去。 Di Feng and red garment young girl complied with one, with. 狄峰和红衫少女应了一声,跟了上去。 Three people arrived above a stage, the people on under arena quick peaceful, looked in the stage toward three people of institutes. 三人走到了一处高台之上,下方擂台上的众人很快安静了下来,朝着三人所在高台看了过来。 Shi Mu in crowd, sees the Liu An form now, look glittering. 石牧现在人群之中,看到柳岸的身影,眼神闪烁了一下。 Regarding the Liu An status, the these day he also basically understood, will appear regarding him today here, he not surprised. 对于柳岸的身份,这些日子他也基本了解,对于他今日会在这里出现,他并没有如何惊讶。 Same side, will then conduct to go to sea today the second competition of selection.” The Liu An clear and resonant voice said. “诸位同门,今日便将进行出海选拔的第二场比试。”柳岸朗声说道。 Finishes speaking, in conference site immediately humming sound discussion, most people wear a look of exciting color. 话音刚落,会场中顿时一阵嗡嗡议论,大部分人面带兴奋之色。 Before the competition starts, I first announced a matter.
