From Prisoner to Si Chen

It's late at night.

Guillen drove back to Morales Street.

On the way, he was thinking about the "Eclipse Meeting".

This extremely mysterious organization has repeatedly caused trouble and wreaked havoc in the empire. First, it added fuel to the flames and stirred up civil strife in Bosvia in the north, and then incited volcanic miasma in Blood Harbor in the south.

Even Agni, one of Caesar's four knights, the "Silver Crowned Knight", sacrificed himself as a material for Pala to use the "Philosopher's Sword" to seal the crater.

This further shortened Para's lifespan.

The empire must hate the "Eclipse Society" and "Windmill Cat" Pal Solomon.

Moreover, the "Windmill Cat" has made many enemies. In addition to the "Remnant King" of December Sichen, he also swallowed Lilia Enge, the sister of "Torrent" of January Sichen.

Even Miss Torina's disability is related to the "Sulfur Man", and can only be cured by winning the "crown" of the "Windmill Cat".

For these reasons, Gilan also wants to help the empire completely eliminate the "Eclipse Society".

Although, with his current strength, he is not even qualified to become the opponent of "Windmill Cat".

But he can do his part, and while "Windmill Cat" was severely injured by the Four Knights and was recovering from his injuries in the dark, he could try to eliminate "Windmill Cat"'s followers and weaken its influence.

From a certain point of view, this can be regarded as indirectly helping Miss Tolina... In addition, a very important point is that given Gillan's current status, his choice is a "correct position".

It can gain the favor of three parties at the same time, so why not do it.

‘Uncle Schnauzer, let’s start with you. ’

Ji Lan's eyes were cold.

Originally, he didn't have such a deep dislike for the "Eclipse Society", but after the God's Country and his party were framed and attacked by Schnauzer, the fuse in his heart was ignited.

When the time is right, the revenge bomb will explode.

…

…

South of Museciti, a thousand kilometers away.

Perrin, Blue Zone, Cockburn City.

On the top floor of a single-family apartment in the city center, in a large and spacious room, a mature and slim figure in a black dress was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, holding a silver-plated microphone and talking to her ear.

"Hey Yunisky, it's me, Crow."

"That's right, I want to entrust you with something..."

The lady couldn't help but be silent for a while as she listened to the voice of the "Old Staff Maker" on the phone.

"Aren't you free... Members of the secret sect also responded in this way. In fact, it's just that my offer was too low and I was unwilling to accept it."

"Ms. Crow, it's not that I don't think your pay is low, but I really can't get away from it."

The old man who made the staff gave a wry smile in the hotline.

"Most of the members of 'Ye Mei' are fanatical about research and wish they had forty-eight hours in a day... Your commission is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it is indeed difficult to handle."

"Well, I understand."

Lady Crow sighed in disappointment.

At this time, the old man on the other end of the hotline was silent for a while, but made a suggestion:

"Crow, why don't you find the 'Blood Owl'? He has outstanding practical ability and is a student of the 'White Sage'. He should be able to fulfill your request."

"Blood Owl..." Ms. Crow groaned. "Indeed, there is no doubt about his ability. But he is also a formal member now and the holder of 'Knight Chess'. I probably won't be able to get what he wants."

"You are wrong, Crow." Yunisky chuckled twice. "You have exactly what he needs in your hands...because the path he takes is the same as you."

"You mean the fifth-level secret of February's 'director' journey?"

Ms. Crow frowned slightly.

"As a student of the 'White Sage', he should have no shortage of secret knowledge..."

"You have fallen into a blind zone of thinking."

Yoniski laughed.

"The 'White Sage' is a pillar figure in contemporary alchemy. He attaches great importance to the principle of 'equivalent exchange'. Even to his own students, he will never give away secrets easily."

"Since it all requires effort, the Blood Owl might accept your commission. There's nothing to lose if you give it a try, so go give him a hotline."

"Hmm...that's fine." Ms. Crow thought for a while.

Not long after, the two hung up the hotline.

Click.

The lady put away the silver-plated microphone and stared out the window at the night view of the city. After a long while, he murmured:

"You've progressed so fast, Blood Owl... I even forgot that you are now on an equal footing with us."

…

…

Early the next morning.

After having breakfast in the restaurant, Gilan took a bus to the Triumph Building, intending to "check in for class" with Teacher Parra.

But just in the car, he suddenly received the alchemy hotline.

Gillan glanced at the driver in front of him.

The military bodyguard held the steering wheel, looked forward, and turned a deaf ear.

He then took out the hotline, connected it, and put it against his ear.

"Hello?"

"Blood Owl, it's me, Crow..."

"Ms. Crow?" Jilan raised his eyebrows.

"I have a commission here. Are you interested?"

Ms. Ya got straight to the point and said directly on the phone.

"Please tell me." Jilan looked at the street scene outside the window and smiled at the hotline.

"I need you to help me go to the 'Kingdom of Fosaka' and find a real film called "The Legend of Invincibility" there."

Ms. Crow's mature voice said softly.

"This film is very important to our current work, but due to manpower constraints, it is difficult to carry out, so we have to entrust others to help."

"The Kingdom of Fosaka..."

Gillan murmured.

This kingdom is located outside the western borders of the Bremen Empire and in the gap between the Stuttgart Empire and the Stuttgart Empire. It is a neutral kingdom that does not touch the two sides.

But in fact, it is one of many small countries dotted with stars. Its national power is weak and its population is sparse. In terms of land area, it is probably less than a state in the empire.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Crow... I'm currently studying mysticism and alchemy with my teacher, so I'm afraid I won't be able to spare the time."

Jilan sighed.

Hearing this, Ms. Crow seemed to be disappointed. After a moment of silence, she tried to argue:

"Don't you want to hear what the reward is?"

"Huh?" Jilan became interested and asked with a chuckle: "Then please ask Ms. Crow to explain."

"The road to 'Director' in February, the secret of level 5 original substance 'Lighting'...are you interested?"

A female voice came from the other end of the hotline.

Ji Lan was startled.

Although he took an original path, the deduction of "Beautiful" needs to be based on the path of "director".

Therefore, the fifth-level "Lighting" secret is indispensable.

This is what he has been looking for.

Ms. Crow offered to pay for the secret message, which was an excellent opportunity for him, and Gilan did not want to let it go.

"Well, in this way..." Gillan thought for a while. "Can you give me some time to think about it?"

"How about two days?" Ms. Crow agreed.

"No, I will give you an answer tonight."

Gillan said.

He mainly wanted to ask the teacher's opinion. After all, this commission required going abroad and it must have taken a long time.

"Okay, no problem." Ms. Crow said softly.

Click.

After Ji Lan hung up the hotline, the car arrived at the downstairs of the Triumph Building.

Soon, he came to the chairman's office.

"Teacher, I'm here."

As soon as Gilan entered, he closed the door with his backhand and bowed to the white-haired old gentleman standing by the window.

Parra turned and looked at the wall clock, seven fifty.

"Good, you're not late."

He turned around and smiled at Gillan.

"Then starting from today, I will officially start teaching you mystical knowledge including alchemy, but not limited to this."

"Okay, teacher." Jilan said respectfully.

Parra came over, stood in front of him, and said calmly:

"Jilan, I will put alchemy later. First, I need to specifically test your actual combat level, so as to teach you more advanced physical training, meditation and sword skills."

"I know you are good at these, so I plan to further strengthen your strengths and make them a real advantage that is uniquely yours."

Parra wielded a white cane and held the light from the window behind her back.

His voice was low, not loud, but it made Jilan's heart surge.

"Although I am better at alchemy, I also know a little bit about these. I believe I can gain something from you."

"More importantly, I believe that a great alchemist is by no means a weak person. Only when he has strong strength can he make a difference and make it easier to display his knowledge."

"Do you understand it?"

"Understood, teacher." Jilan took a deep breath and nodded.

"Very good." Parra nodded. "follow me."

After that, he took out his "king's chess piece".

When the chess piece was turned upside down and returned to its position, golden light suddenly bloomed.

Gillan took a step forward with tacit understanding, and in the golden light, stepped into the "Chessboard Manor" that existed between the cracks of the world.

The cool breeze carrying the fragrance of roses blows on my face.

Ji Lan blinked and found that the surrounding environment was an empty lawn, the sky was clear, and the white clouds were leisurely.

The white-haired old gentleman held his cane and stood upright, facing him not far away.

"Don't worry about environmental damage, everything here can be decomposed and reconstructed under the miracle of Ms. Mei Weng."

Parra smiled.

"Next, let go of your hands and feet and fight with me...No need to worry."

"is teacher."

Jilan took a deep breath and took out the Staff of Laughter.

His medium-long hair turned from blond to red, his body grew taller at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his muscles bulged.

Bang! !

Gilan stepped on it, creating a dent, and his figure had already traced a blurry trajectory and arrived in front of the white-haired old gentleman.

His gray cane had transformed into a flower basket cross sword at some point. After turning on the green gunpowder burning mode, it exuded a faint green luster and high temperature.

Woo——

As soon as Jilan took action, he used the "Bloodletting Sword" that he was best at, the secret of the zodiac, and slashed out the six-pointed star sword wind.

Jingle bell! !

But the old gentleman Parra stood there, not taking a step back, holding a white staff in one hand, and at the same astonishing speed, he struck twelve blows in the blink of an eye, striking the cross sword accurately.

Sparks flew out, and metal clashed with a clang.

"I didn't expect that in just a few months, you would have mastered the 'Bloodletting Sword' to such an extent."

Parra's originally calm face showed a look of surprise.

He suddenly flicked his wrist, and the white cane in his hand instantly shook out countless afterimages.

Clang! !

Ji Lan felt numb.

The flower basket cross sword in his hand almost fell out of his hand.

His pupils shrank and he was about to retreat.

The next second, the white cane touched his left chest lightly.

If you go a little further, you can stab through the heart!

"I lost, teacher."

Jilan slowly put down the flower basket cross sword in his hand and said in a deep voice.

He knew that Parra was very strong, but when it came time to fight against him, Jilan realized that he still underestimated the strength of this legendary figure.

Even though the old man didn't use any powerful moves, he was able to break his attack with just these few simple and plain stick techniques.

"That's pretty good, Jilan."

Pala encouraged.

He took back the white stick, stuck it on the ground, and said:

"Next, no weapons. I'll test your hand-to-hand combat skills again..."

"Yes, teacher!"

Jilan took a deep breath and said.
