Divine Flame Crystal

Chapter 167 Time Stands Still

Xingluo arrived at the inn where he usually stayed. Sure enough, the old man came again, but this time his eyes were excited, "Tong, do you know what you did? That was a demon, a great magician-level demon, and you actually killed him."

Xingluo nodded without comment. He was excited inside, but he didn't show it on the surface. He just nodded calmly, as if what he was doing was a trivial matter.

"Yesterday, due to a change in the mission and my pleading, I was originally planning to promote you to a high-level killer, but I temporarily changed it to an ace killer. However, the commission has not yet been increased, but the basic magic core reward every month has doubled."

When Xingluo heard this, he was delighted. No one would refuse money. If someone gave money, it must be because the money was not enough.

"However, since your level has increased suddenly, your next stage of mission is not yet ready. You can use this time to rest."

Xingluo nodded slightly. He had been a little tired recently. He was tired of long-range sniping and planned to try his close combat skills. "Especially when he is wearing armor and then performing assassinations, will the other party think he is a knight? Or a killer? Or a magician?" Xingluo's mouth curled up slightly when he thought of this.

After receiving the reward from the last wave of tasks, Xingluo decided to see if there were any handy melee weapons. After searching for a long time, he found only a rusty dagger. Although this dagger didn't look very good, it seemed to have some effect on demons after testing it before. Forget it, there were no other weapons anyway, so he would just use it for the time being.

However, Xingluo went to the magic shop and got an exaggerated shield and a knight's sword. Since he wanted to confuse the other party, he would confuse him to the end. And he didn't know what profession he belonged to.

The Shadow's ace killer, the Killer Guild's gold medal killer, has a physical fitness comparable to that of the Earth Knight, possesses martial arts-level body movements, and has exquisite control over magic. He can also cast spells over long distances. He is a great magician of space and an intermediate magician of time.

The magic power that can be improved the fastest in a short period of time should be time magic. Xingluo plans to study time magic more when he has nothing to do. As for the intermediate magic power, it is indeed not enough.

However, Xingluo overlooked the rarity of the time system. The time system is extremely rare in the entire alien continent. If he had not obtained this time-space crystal and his identity as a time-space traveler, it would have taken him an unknown amount of time to comprehend the magic of time. In any case, no one on the continent has ever heard of a time system spellcaster.

With Xingluo's hard work, his understanding of time magic continued to deepen. However, because time magic was too profound, Xingluo, who was exhausted, finally fell down and breathed evenly. "It's time to sleep." Xi brushed Xingluo's cheek with his tail with some concern.

In his dream, Xingluo found that there was fog all around him. He kept walking in one direction, as if there was no end. He vaguely saw an old man, "We meet again..."

Xingluo felt a splitting headache, as if something was stuffed into his brain, and he was surprised to find that his time magic had broken through the intermediate level to the advanced level, and he was promoted after just one sleep. "I am indeed a genius."

Advanced time magic, there seemed to be a formation diagram in his mind, he worked hard to start constructing it, finally, in sweat, he released the magic, and it turned out to be the power of time, it was advanced time magic, time stood still, but only for half a second, but Xingluo knew that this magic was a growth magic, and his understanding of time magic would increase as he understood it.

As long as he is fast enough, half a second is enough for him to do a lot of things. Xingluo began to think about what he could do if time was still for half a second. Combining with his current abilities, he could think about what he could do. Xingluo's associations became more and more uncontrollable. Xingluo's ideas were always wild and unrealistic, and now it was even more so.

Xingluo's passion for time magic far exceeds that for space magic. This is an ability he has dreamed of possessing since he was a child. He never expected that it would be realized in an alien continent. Naturally, he couldn't let it go. Whenever he had time, he would think about the application of time magic. He had a craftsman spirit and was tirelessly exploring the mysteries of time magic.

Hard work pays off. With Xingluo's efforts, he can finally stably perform the magic of time standstill, which he has always dreamed of. Within half a second, he is confident that he can kill the opponent even if he is at a higher level than him.

You know, the lower the level, the more impossible it is to kill people of higher levels. However, with time standing still, he feels that he can turn the impossible into possible.

"Whoever killed my dear disciple, my most outstanding work, I will make him pay the price." A middle-aged man who was making puppets in the laboratory was furious. He saw a broken puppet heart on the table. The magic power was dissipated. This was the human puppet he prepared for his next rebirth. He was planning to conduct a body transfer experiment immediately, but it was destroyed by someone. It was a puppet with demonic power, and he could use it immediately, but it was destroyed by someone.

He traced the magic power and found an unusual fluctuation. Was it a space magician? It turned out to be a space magician. His eyes became hot and he said hysterically: "Since you have destroyed my work, then you will become my next puppet."

The sound was like the sound of metal rubbing against each other, which was chilling.

"Von Hohenheim, you are a piece of shit. You actually let my men die on this continent!"

"I'm sorry, my master. This is my negligence. Please allow me to redeem myself. I will definitely refine the other party into an emotionless puppet. Then I will be able to provide you with a great help."

"It will not happen again. I will not allow any mistakes to happen again in my coming."

"Yes! Your most loyal servant will definitely clear the obstacles for you!"

Xingluo was wearing armor that was fully armed to the teeth. He walked on the street, and pedestrians avoided him one after another, which attracted many people's exclamations. There were also some infatuated noble girls who looked at this handsome armor and let out shrill screams.

Xingluo didn't stop and went straight to the Prontera Auction House. He wanted to see if the auctioneer thought it was worth the price. Because Xingluo was wearing armor, everyone thought he was a knight. He walked around the auction with a swagger, showing off the armor in various poses, attracting the attention of many nobles.

"I really want it. It's so handsome."

"It looks very light, and there seems to be a faint magical fluctuation. Could it be a magical equipment?"

"But it looks so expensive. If the Flame Hammer had such a handsome armor, I would have given up being a magician a long time ago. I would have to buy it no matter how much it cost. I still have to be a knight. Look at those noble ladies, their eyes widened when they saw this armor."

"Idiot! Can a magician cast spells while wearing armor? Do you think you are a paladin?!"

"Hush, don't say that. If you make irresponsible remarks about the church, you might get caught by the people of the Holy See of Light."

The obese middle-aged man curled his lips, not daring to speak any more, and muttered in his heart: "I didn't say anything."

Xingluo walked around the nobles again and again until they began to feel aesthetic fatigue and their eyes showed suspicion and deep darkness. Only then did Xingluo go up to the private room on the third floor.

Because Xingluo's armor was too conspicuous, many nobles kept their eyes on him. Seeing that this knight in armor had actually reached the third level, a pale-faced young man was slightly stunned and muttered in a low voice: "Huh, he is actually a noble lord. I guess he is showing off on purpose. He must buy a set of armor later and become very popular."

Xingluo's armor didn't feel heavy at all, and with his strength, wearing it was no different from wearing a magic robe.

As soon as they arrived in the box, the light dimmed instantly. It was obvious that Yi had noticed what Xingluo had just done. In order to cooperate with him, she directly started today's theme auction.

Yi's soft voice sounded in the center: "I believe everyone knows something about armor, and the Knight is no stranger to it. It can be said that armor is an important equipment for the Knight."

Everyone was instantly attracted by Yi's voice. Seeing that it was the famous beautiful auctioneer Yi, they instantly burst into enthusiastic cheers. It was obvious that Yi had already accumulated a certain reputation in Luoshen Continent.

Xingluo nodded secretly. Just for this reason, he would not lose out if he went against everyone's opinion and offered a high price to poach Yi.

Under the magic spotlight, she looked radiant and radiant, like a beautiful elf dancing. Her every frown, smile, and move attracted the attention of the entire audience.

Especially the wealthy male customers, who originally had no interest in a certain item, but under the "encouragement" of Yi's eyes, they all bid frantically without hesitation, as if whoever paid the most would get the item.

Xing Luo secretly made up his mind: "As expected, there are geniuses in every industry. Yi is such a person in this industry. I must keep her in Flame Hammer. She is simply a cash cow!"

Yi's snow-white fingers gently brushed across the handsome armor. Her expression and movement were like caressing a lover who was about to leave. At this time, her soft voice sounded: "The design inspiration of this armor comes from a triumphant foreign god of war. In order to protect his family, he embarked on a journey without hesitation and finally won the victory..."

This is the tradition of Flame Hammer. Because many of the equipment are specially made, each piece of equipment has a story, and many design elements can be found in the story. Many buyers are proud to buy Flame Hammer equipment, one reason is that the quantity is too rare, and the other is that the story is too fascinating, attracting the crazy pursuit of boys and girls. Of course, as long as you are a boy or girl at heart, it's fine.

Because not long ago there was a story about a knight's longsword, which was similar to the experience of an elderly nobleman. He spent all his money to buy the knight's longsword at the auction. It is said that the nobleman was driven out of the room when he returned and had to sleep in the yard.

The design inspiration of this knight's longsword comes from a story about a knight who fell in love with a singing girl and a dancer. However, due to his family's opposition, he had to marry a noblewoman of equal status. The longsword was the token of love that the knight gave to the dancer, saying that he would marry her when he returned triumphantly. However, the knight was defeated, so when he returned to his family, he had to accept the arrangement and marry the noble girl.

There are many similar things, some are true, and some are news that Xingluo deliberately arranged for people to spread. He is well aware of the importance of hype. The cost of many advertising packaging is much higher than the research and development cost of the product. Even if it is sugar water, as long as the publicity is in place, people will buy it. Although Xingluo is not such a person, the investment in publicity is still necessary. The people in this alien continent are too conservative.
