The Master’s Friendship Rules
Page 268
Oscar: “Don’t say that. This envoy is being watched by Kailin at all times, sister.”
“If it was some other god paying attention to me, I probably wouldn’t be worried, but Karin…” Rosalie hesitated to speak, and in the end she didn’t say anything rude to Karin. Who knows if Karin was distracted and looking at the island?
Oscar: “He is the darling of fate. He has been in so many dangerous situations before, but he was unscathed and his team didn’t even lose any members. This time, he will definitely be able to turn danger into safety.”
Rosalie crossed her arms and looked at the ceiling: “That’s the only way I can believe it.”
Just as he finished speaking, another explosion was heard outside.
Rosalie sighed, “These dwarfs!”
She rushed out of the room, stood on the side of the “main road” with her hands on her hips, and looked at the thick smoke in the direction of the electromagnetic tower.
Lancelot’s parish priest Atoli passed by her with two maids and complained as usual: “Miss Myhrvold, please think of a solution. We are running out of lightning protection scrolls!”
Oscar was shocked: “Is Atoli the only one on this island who can call us by our last name?”
Rosalie responded loudly: “I have already written a letter to place an order. The goods will arrive soon on the dwarfs’ airship.”
Atoli complained, “Are there more dwarves coming? Lancelot, the dwarves’ presence has weakened the island’s defenses. If we encounter an attack, our combat power will be compromised because all the spell slots have been consumed by the dwarves!”
Rosalie: “I know! Don’t worry!”
Oscar was shocked: “This half-elf old man doesn’t take our vigilante group seriously.”
Rosalie: “After all, they are just ordinary humans. Even if they are armed with a crossbow made by dwarves and a not very practical electric lance, they are still ordinary humans.”
“Speaking of this, ever since Flint went to explore the dungeon, the adventurers on the island have become increasingly restless. Yesterday, they had three conflicts with the vigilante group.” Oscar frowned, “Should we issue a bounty and ask them to find a way to the Underdark from the collapsed dragon’s lair?”
Previously, the Crusaders brought many adventurers who were responsible for reconnaissance and support missions. Many of these adventurers did not stay in the newly born Shallow Water City, but went with the Floating Island.
Many of them come here just for the free unlimited drinking of liquor.
Rosalie turned around and asked, “Are the adventurers causing a lot of trouble?”
“I just said, there were three cases yesterday.”
“Sorry, I wasn’t paying attention.”
“Sister, you are so distracted…Are you in love with the king?”
“Can’t you see?”
“Eh? I thought you two were really friends with benefits. After all, you are a social person, right? I’ve heard the news about you since I started attending the salon.”
“That was all fake,” Rosalie said. “I was a real virgin until I had sex with Wang.”
Oscar was shocked: “Zundu is fake?”
Rosalie frowned. “What are you talking about?”
Oscar: “Lizardman language, meaning ‘really or not’.”
“You can speak Lizardman now?”
Oscar: “Sister, haven’t you noticed that since the king left with his team, not many of us can speak Lizardman?”
“No, there weren’t many people on the island who could speak Lizardman before they left,” Rosalie corrected.
Oscar: “That’s why I learned from Master Li Guang. I also learned the dwarven language! I feel that our island will need a lot of translators who know various languages in the future to maintain communication among the various races on the island.”
Rosalie: “No, is it possible that there are quite a few people of each race who can speak the common language?”
“Sister, you don’t understand! When Wang was here, he knew all the languages. He was only two years older than me! How can an eighteen-year-old master so much knowledge?”
Rosalie was shocked. “I may know why. When we were having sex, he would often talk about what happened in the tower. The tower uses a timeline artificially set by the three extremely powerful planeswalkers who founded the tower.
“His eighteen years might be different from the eighteen years we know.”
Oscar: “You mean, he might actually be a grandfather in his 40s or 50s?”
Rosalie: “No, his body is indeed that of an eighteen-year-old. Very… strong.”
“Don’t show that expression at this time, I will think the wrong thing, sister!”
“Is there a possibility that you are not thinking wrongly?” said Master Li Guang who suddenly appeared.
Oscar was startled, screamed, and jumped away from Li Guang.
Master Li Guang: “The lizardman scouts who set out yesterday just came up in the gondola.”
This is the latest masterpiece of the dwarves, a hanging basket that can be lowered to the ground. Because the rope alone is so heavy, it must be pulled up with an electric winch. Without an electric winch, even all the strong men on the island would not be able to pull it up.
Rosalie was shocked. “That winch didn’t explode after being used twice? I was ready to send out an airship to pick up the reconnaissance team. Did you find anything?”
Master Li Guang: “All the Kobolds gathered around the dragon’s lair have fled, probably because the dragon is dead and its control over them has been lifted. There is nothing else. The swamp is still the swamp, and the jungle is still the jungle… Oh, scouts from the Lizardmen tribe came to investigate, and it seems that the floating island has made them uneasy.”
Rosalie: “I’d be uneasy if there was something like that floating around my house.”
She glanced at the electric tower in the distance that continued to discharge electricity: “Especially when you see that.”
Oscar added: “And this thing makes a loud noise every day.”
As soon as he finished speaking, another orange-yellow fireball rose up near the power tower.
Oscar: “Ah, it’s smaller this time. Anyway, it’s really unsettling.”
Master Rikkou: “If the lizardmen come to complain, I will negotiate on their behalf.”
Rosalie: “Fortunately, the king led the team out. If he were here, he might have another idea and wanted to move this lizardman tribe to the island to serve as a fighting force.”
“That’s possible.” Master Li Guang nodded. “I heard they let a jellyfish join the team?”
Rosalie: “Yes, it is said to be a monster called Furu. I originally thought that the king was only interested in beautiful girls of different races, but I didn’t expect that he was not interested in beautiful girls, but in different races.”
Rosalie held her forehead with her hand and said, “Why is this happening? I’ve served him so well. Is it because I’m a human that this is not possible?”
Oscar: “Think positively, sister. Elizabeth is also a human being.”
At this moment, a portal appeared in front of the three people – two people and one lizard.
It’s a pity that none of the three have the ability to identify this portal, otherwise they would know that this is a nine-ring magic portal to another world.
A girl wearing the same robes as the king walked through the portal.
The girl has short hair like a tomboy, but her pretty face would never make people mistake her for a boy.
Maybe.
The girl looked around and read: “Hmm, the lightning tower, the giant motionless golem, and…”
Her eyes fell on Rosalie’s secondary sexual characteristics.
“He likes the big boobs. That’s right, my magic worked! The question now is, will the professor come after me?”
The girl took out a staff that was taller than herself from her robe, and looked around alertly while leaning on it.
Rosalie: “Huh? Who are you?”
Girl: “Shh! The professor might have come after me because I broke the rule of not setting foot in this plane during his exam! Detect magic!”
Rosalie looked around: “It seems that no one is chasing us?”
The girl let out a sigh.
Rosalie: “You…could you be the one…”
“Yes.” The girl took out her hat and put it on. “My name is Lily, and I’m that guy’s childhood sweetheart.”
Then she pointed the head of her staff at Rosalie: “I’m here to save him from that evil woman!”
Rosalie: ?
Chapter 299 Reminiscing about the Days in the Tower
Rosalie frowned: “You… are that Lily?”
Girl: “I’m that Lily.”
Rosalie looked the girl over again from head to toe. “How could he have thought you were of undetermined gender?”
Lily sighed: “Maybe he forgot the scene when we took a bath together when we were little. With his memory, I don’t know how he could forget it.”
Oscar: “Have you ever taken a bath together?”
Lily: “Yeah. A long, long time ago.”
Rosalie: “Was it when he was still being led by the Devil Duke and the Succubus Queen?”
Lily continued to nod: “Yes, that’s the time.”
Just when the girls were concerned about Wang Xiaoshi, Master Li Guang asked, “You just cast the magic of crossing the plane, didn’t you? I remember that the magic level of this kind of magic is not low.”
Lily: “I used the Nine-Ring Gate to Another World. This is the only Nine-Ring magic I have mastered so far. I have worked hard for half a year to participate in his adventure. I mean the time in the tower.”
“Wait a minute!” Rosalie raised her voice involuntarily, “I thought it was outrageous that he had three rings at the age of eighteen. Are you nine rings at the age of eighteen?”
Lily tilted her head and said, “He should have reached the ninth level a long time ago, but I don’t know what went wrong and he has been stuck at the third level. Of course, our progress is outstanding in our Mage Tower. Generally speaking, people should start preparing for the final exam at around the age of 28, that is, preparing to upgrade.
“At this time, you will usually work as a part-time lecturer to earn points in the tower and exchange them for materials. If you are successfully promoted, you will become a new professor.”
Rosalie was extremely shocked: “28-year-old Jiuhuan?”
Lily: “Yeah, not everyone can achieve that. Because the higher you go, the more complicated the knowledge becomes, and many people really can’t learn it. But he is an exception. He obviously understood everything and got full marks on the written test, but he just can’t cast a spell.
“After I reached the fourth ring, I gave him special lessons every day, but he just couldn’t learn. It was so frustrating. Later, I reached the fifth ring, but he was still at the third ring. My uncle said that he might have been too knowledgeable and paid the price for it.”
Lily suddenly remembered something: “Wait, I remember he has four rings?”
Rosalie: “Yes, I learned the Phantom Killer and Advanced Roaring Techniques when I solved the puzzle left by the Cyclops.”
Lily blinked: “How did he…realize it?”
Rosalie: “It seems that by understanding the nature of illusions? And High Roar understands how to precisely control energy or something… I’m not a mage, I’m not even a warlock, I don’t understand.”
“Okay, I’ll go ask him directly. So he’s underground now?”
Oscar asked in confusion: “How do you know so much about his situation?”
“Because it was a live broadcast, at first the boys wanted to watch him and your sister make out, but I stopped them.”
Rosalie was shocked: “Then if you come over now, there will be no one to stop you, right?”
“Don’t worry, I’ve reported the boys’ little thoughts to the professor, so Professor Forrance is watching over them now. Professor Forrance is meticulous and strict. By the way, Professor Forrance is probably the professor who hates him the most.”
Rosalie: “Why?”
