Your knowledge is too taboo

In the mirror world.

Qi Lu lowered his head, his long sleeves hanging down naturally, his fists clenched tightly in the cover of the sleeves, and beads of sweat appeared between his palms.

His mood at this moment was no more relaxed than when he met the Lord of Truth for the first time.

Strictly speaking, Qi Lu is even more nervous right now.

Because he didn't know whether the question he asked before was appropriate.

Compared with the first "Nightcrawler" problem, the "promotion" problem raised now is undoubtedly more bold.

After all, Nightcrawler's racial habits cannot be compared to Sequence Seven's promotion to Sequence Six in terms of value!

The most valuable knowledge after the disaster is undoubtedly extraordinary. The taboo knowledge of "vampire" habits is nothing more than the same as "modern football rules", and is completely different from the extraordinary knowledge that can advance the rank.

The former can be turned into "harmless knowledge", while the latter can create extraordinary beings. The value is clear at a glance!

That's why Qi Lu is a little worried now.

Taking a deep breath, he couldn't help but murmur to himself: "Will the Lord of Truth think that I am too greedy?"

You have obviously only requested a transaction once, and then quickly performed it a second time, and the knowledge of the transaction is far more valuable than the first time. Will this make the other party feel that you are too greedy?

he does not know.

The nervousness filled his heart, making him almost unable to breathe.

Although he knows that the Lord of Truth exists as an absolute order, there is a high probability that he will not be unhappy about this. However, as the only life-saving straw now, Qi Lu must consider all aspects no matter what.

In the final analysis, I am still too weak.

If you can have more power and more chips, you can have more say...

Thinking of this, Qi Lu's eyes flashed slightly: "And now, the only channel through which I can control power is the Lord of Truth."

If you want to pass this channel, you must show more of your own value!

Qi Lu's eyes were extremely firm as he chewed over the "trial" previously proposed by the Lord of Truth in his heart.

Yes.

He believed that the Lord of Truth's previous mission of "exploring the information before the catastrophe" was actually a trial.

This is not difficult to understand - as the Lord of Truth who has mastered countless forbidden knowledge, it is impossible not to know the information before the disaster.

He just became interested in Qi Lu's ambition and gave him a condition to show his value.

Of course Qi Lu's thinking was not groundless.

Because the time point of the mission goal is too ambiguous.

Most of the information "before the catastrophe" is now contaminated, and it is very difficult to obtain the conditions. And if that knowledge can be obtained, it will undoubtedly prove Qi Lu's ability.

Moreover, the Lord of Truth also said that past history can reveal the future of mankind. It was obvious that He knew something before choosing this time point.

So, this is a trial!

"When the sacrifice is over, start preparing to search in this direction."

Waiting for the response from the Lord of Truth, Qi Lu thought silently in his heart: "Also, it is best not to search for information about the Lord of Truth. Because this may violate taboos, and no existence wants its past to be explored."

Everything else can be collected.

"Fortunately, the family was quite prominent in the past, and it still retained some connections. Although no one wants to contact these connections, it is different now."

Today's Qi family can be said to have countless taboo knowledge in their hands. Even if they only miss a little bit, it is enough to repair those relationships that have barely known each other after hundreds of years.

"Well, let's start with the upstart 'Li Family' two hundred years ago. I heard that their family has a sequence three strong man who has survived for more than a hundred years and is probably still seeking promotion..."

Thinking of this, Qi Lu nodded secretly.

He has begun to weave a way that will not reveal his secrets, but can catch up with the upstart "Li Family".

And while he was thinking.

In the mirror, the majestic voice twisted and intertwined like threads again: "I understand your problem."

"Then what are you willing to give in exchange for this forbidden knowledge?"

Hearing the calm voice of the Lord of Truth, Qi Lu couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Fortunately, he didn't seem to be unhappy because of his greed.

He quickly calmed down and said respectfully: "We are willing to use Nightwalker Sequence Six—a taboo object sought by Count Charast as a bargaining chip."

With that said, Qi Lu took out something from his arms.

This was found in the Night Walker's den and seemed to belong to the Count Night Walker.

This thing was not included in the "trophies" because it was not captured this time, but dug out by the Qi family.

That's right.

The letter sent to the Count in Nightcrawler's lair is actually a treasure map!

"The great Lord of Truth, it is said that this is a taboo item from the 'Zenya Federation' thousands of years ago."

Taking out something respectfully from his pocket, Qi Lu said softly: "This forbidden item is called the 'Thorn Mask'. The person who wears it can slowly increase the strength of the soul, and can summon a thorn shadow out of thin air."

"This is our bargaining chip. Please evaluate the value of this forbidden item."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and respectfully handed over a white mask that seemed to have thorns wrapped around its surface.

This is the taboo they dug up.

According to Qi Lu's knowledge, this mask is probably equivalent to a C-level forbidden object. Not too dangerous, but not too valuable either.

The thorn shadow summoned from this mask is like a twisted tentacle, which can carry out long-range attacks, but is relatively fragile. Ordinary pollution can easily destroy it, and the only advantage is that it can return to the void.

In the shadow, it can recover automatically without relying on pollution.

But its biggest benefit is actually the former.

That is to increase the strength of the soul!

Although the current definition of soul is very broad, at least in the world after the disaster, people have a common understanding.

That is the soul, which may determine how much forbidden knowledge a transcendent can persist in spying on and how long he can use the forbidden objects!

Some people say that the reason why the extraordinary sequence is promoted can allow extraordinary people to persist in using forbidden objects longer and gain more forbidden knowledge. That is because when the extraordinary sequence is promoted, all attributes will be improved.

And the strength of the soul also jumped due to this.

Therefore, this treasure can be called a slow potential enhancer.

Even Qi Lu himself is very greedy for this stuff.

However, something he didn't expect was.

After a moment of silence.

The Lord of Truth said slowly: "Not enough."

"This forbidden object is not enough to pay for your knowledge."

Qi Lu's face turned pale when he heard this.

Isn't this enough? !

Qi Lu was a little anxious at this moment.

He was hesitating.

In fact, he still has a potentially good bargaining chip in his hand.

However, the significance of that bargaining chip far exceeds his own and even the Qi family's psychological expectations...

Is that really the only way?

After hesitating for a long time.

Qi Lu then raised his head, his eyes firmer.

He clenched his hands into fists and said solemnly in front of the mirror: "I understand."

"Then I'll add one more thing."

"It is not a forbidden object, but something refined by my ancestor, Qi Zhengren."

"My ancestor called it...'elixir'!"

That is their clan's most precious treasure.

Even when they were chased by the Night Walker and were at the end of their rope, Qi Lu never considered sending the treasure.

Because that treasure represents the future of the Qi family to some extent.

But now, the Qi family has a better choice for their future.

So he made this decision.

Use the most precious "elixir" as a bargaining chip...

Dedicated to the Lord of Truth!

And as soon as these words came out.

The other members of the Qi family were in an uproar!
