after waking up.

Chapter 258 Leo's Information

Just in this huge but crowded utility room, Mu Lan felt the richness of the Pirate King, rich in the sense of knowledge.

However, these precious treasures are all the private property of the Pirate King, and they are not shared with others. Perhaps as an existence of the seventh order, the Pirate King often does not think of these things that are of little use to him. books.

Conspiracy, trick, disguise, show.
For a long time, Mu Lan has been good at calculating, but returning to a simple joy is the best way to rest, um, maybe you have to add sleep "bathed in the holy light".

"The Gate of Elements", "The Whisperer of the Inner World", "Personality and Soul", "The Fall of Magic".
It is this kind of pure happiness that Mulan has brought to Mu Lan from books that she has never read. Even if some books are obviously inaccurate, they are at least very interesting.

"It's a pity that there is no book of secrets."

Mu Lan found a few books, sat down at the fairly clean table and read them, but without his own notebooks, he was not used to refining and recording while reading.

In a secret room on Gem Mountain, Newt is constantly studying the last part of the magic circle.

This secret room is a large room, the edges of which are full of messy sundries, and on the round table in the middle is a pieced together sea chart. part.

The brilliance of magic power shrouded the patchwork chart, and the chart made of unknown sea animal skins was gradually saturated with magic power. Thin golden lines emerged from the center of the chart and continued to extend.

The lines of the magic circle kept approaching the edge, through one break, two breaks, and three breaks. When Newt became more and more excited, two of the golden lines stagnated outside a map fragment.

"Bang~"

The backlash of the magic circle brought a strong impact, knocking everything around the round table flying, causing a "pinging, bang, bang" in the room, while Newt, whose hair was only blown by the wind pressure, stood motionless in front of the chart. Frowning.

It turns out that the reason why the room is so messy is because of the magical impact caused by repeated failures, but Newt has no time to think about these details now.

Newt has already boasted in front of the Pirate King, so the problem must be solved as soon as possible. In fact, the remaining problems are really not big, but why can't the magic circle in this last place be connected?

Newt took out a magnifying glass and carefully observed the fracture of the chart. This chart was absolutely correct and complete, and it was impossible for a mortal like Kilga to destroy it.

"The reason can't be Kilga, could it be Nido? No, he doesn't have the guts, or is there something wrong with this chart?"

"No, I have to ask him!"

Newt immediately went out to Nido's pirate group living quarters.

Seeing that Newt came to him because of the chart, Nido, who is also an absolute loyalist of the Pirate King, of course did not dare to neglect.

However, Newt didn't say anything bad to Nido as soon as he came to the door, but asked Nido to help him repair the magic circle together, saying that his strength seemed insufficient.

So half a day later, Nido and Newt repeated Newt's previous failure process in Newt's forbidden room together.

It was also the same last-minute instability, the same magic impact, and the same thing that caused the room to churn, but this time there were two people standing in front of the chart.

"How could this be? It's obvious that our magic power control has been very careful, and there is obviously no sign of failure."

"Yeah, it happened a few times before, but I thought it was because of my lack of strength, so I came here to ask you for help."

As Newt said so, he frowned and looked at Nido.

"When you caught Kilga, did he have any clues before he died?"

Nido shook his head, then frowned again.

"Thinking about it now, he died a little suddenly. By the way, there is another person who was with Kilga alive!"

Newt's eyes lit up.

"Who? Where is he?"

"I can take you to him right now."

Nido didn't drag his feet, and left with Newt directly.

The Gem Island, which can accommodate a city, is huge. The two traveled all the way to the southernmost area of ​​the island, and then found Leo in a place that was obviously a slave domestication base.

At this moment, Leo was only wearing a pair of shorts, and was hung from the beams of a dark room with his hands tied. His whole body was covered with bruised wounds, and his mouth was also blocked.

Leo's consciousness was a little drowsy, and then the door of the black room was opened. The light coming in from outside was very dazzling to him, and he couldn't help but want to close his eyes.

A middle-aged man pointed at Leo with a smile and said.

"The two leaders, that's him. This guy is really a tough guy. If he can be tamed, coupled with his identity and appearance, those noble ladies will definitely be crazy for him, and they will be willing to pay any amount of money. Go back and hide in a private place and enjoy it, hehehe"

Nido laughed.

"The men of the Jones family can't be soft, of course."

Hearing Nido's voice, Leo's drowsy consciousness woke up almost instantly. He raised his head and stared at the other party with wide eyes, as if his eyes were about to spew fire.

Newt was also looking at Leo. Although he was tortured terribly, he did look a bit like that man when he was reminded first.

Newt understands that although not many people on Jewel Island know the surname Jones except for those with high status, on land, Mulan Jones is a dazzling new star, and Leo, as Mulan's brother, , if domesticated as a slave, it can indeed be worth a lot of money.

"take away."

After Newt said this, he turned around and left, and some of the accompanying pirates immediately entered the black room to untie Leo.

"Hey, Chief Newt, he's mine, how can you just take it away?"

"Crack~"

Before the middle-aged man finished speaking, he was slapped down hard by a strong pirate, his head was dizzy, and his ears were buzzing.

"He is the property of the Pirate King. It's not your turn to say anything. I will spare your life this time."

With that said, Newt left with Nido.

During the whole process, Nido didn't say a single unnecessary word. He charged the middle-aged man a lot of money, but he couldn't return the money.

In the evening, Mu Lan was still looking at the magic book in the utility room, but suddenly, the voice of an elf sounded in his heart.

'Someone who is related to you shows up. '

Mulan was startled, and being noticed by the elves who are extremely careful now, it means that Leo not only appeared, but also got close enough!

'Leo in the jewel mountain? '

'Should be, he just showed up not long ago. '

Before, Mu Lan took a certain risk to look for Leo secretly, and even thought about approaching Nido, and knocking on the side of people who could be contacted, but there was no information about Leo, but now he suddenly appeared.

Could it be that the Pirate King brought Leo?
What should I do!
Although the Pirate King valued the pirate Vincent Mulan pretended to be, he was not so easy to talk to in most cases, and Leo was very dangerous now.

Mu Lan's hand holding the magic book unconsciously exerted force, his knuckles were a little white, and some memories of Leo and Leo appeared in his mind, some were from childhood, and the clearer ones were from after the war.

"ho"

Go meet the Pirate King.

Mu Lan put down the book, but after thinking for a while, he picked up one of "Truth and Magic". For Leo, he had to try it anyway, as for how to do it, he could only adapt to the situation.

As Mulan approached the central hall of Gem Mountain, the elf's perception told him that Leo was not inside, but at the moment Mulan felt a little relieved in his heart and at the same time he had to bite the bullet and continue to move forward, because the Pirate King was at such a distance. He must have sensed him, so he couldn't do anything too abnormal.

Entering the hall, the Pirate King was eating roasted wild boar. The whole wild boar was placed on the table in front of the bed, and he was the only one in the huge hall.

"Vincent, you should be learning magic knowledge, why are you looking for me?"

Just as Mu Lan stepped into the hall from the mountain tunnel on one side, he heard the voice of the Pirate King. He looked towards the high part of the hall and replied.

"I think Teacher Newt is very steady, but he is too conservative. He always gives me some too easy learning tasks, so I want to ask the leader, because you are the strongest man in the world!"

Everyone likes to hear good words, especially from a "simple" person like Vincent.

"Hahahahaha, if Newt knew that he was underestimated by a civilized class, he would definitely be furious. Although he is relatively stable in the island, if you dare to speak so bluntly in front of him"

The Pirate King narrowed his eyes and continued.

"He will kill you!"

Mulan frowned slightly, nodded humbly.

"I understand the leader."

The Pirate King nodded slightly.

"Come on, if you have any questions, I'll answer you this time, but I won't take this as an example, unless Newt himself tells me that I really can't answer."

Mulan smiled immediately. The Pirate King was indeed good to him, but anyone who met a genius of this level would have a better temper. Mulan knew how to use his talent, even if it was a disguise.

"Some things in this book are a bit difficult to understand."

The Pirate King saw that it was indeed "Truth and Magic". This systematic and refined knowledge of magic was indeed quite different from the rough understanding of the pirates.

After a full half an hour, Mu Lan came out of the empty hall of the Pirate King. He did not expect that the Pirate King taught him so carefully and patiently.

If it wasn't for Mu Lan's own real talents, not just because of an excuse, then some rhetorical questions and guidance during the Pirate King's explanation just now would have exposed the excuse.

Mu Lan didn't dare to breathe a sigh of relief until he was convinced that the Pirate King would no longer pay attention to him.

' Keep dancing on the edge of the flame, sooner or later you will burn yourself. '

'I'll finish dancing before I get burned. '

Mulan answered the elves like this, while thinking about Leo's matter. Since he is not with the Pirate King, then the most likely place is Newt?

But in the central hall of Gemstone Mountain, the Pirate King was still thinking about Vincent. The brief teaching just now made the Pirate King more deeply aware that Vincent is not only talented, but also has amazing comprehension skills, or Saying that's part of the talent.

Although Vincent is arrogant, his intuition is not wrong. Even Newt may not be able to answer those simple questions about the essence of magic power just now. '

Yes, the questions were not complicated, and Vincent couldn't ask too complicated and detailed questions at his level, but a few questions revealed Vincent's innate intuition for the essence of magic power.

Just like Vincent asked, since it is not the awakening of the magic power, one can definitely enter the extraordinary, so does the moment of awakening the magic power determine success or failure?Ordinary extraordinary people may only laugh at Vincent's ignorance, and they will say that various conditions are required to advance to extraordinary, such as potions, magic circles, sacrifices, auxiliary forces, and so on.

But standing at the height of the Pirate King, there are actually different understandings. Magic power is tempered by human soul and physical strength, and is an extension of human body and will. The initial awakening is also the most touching the source. Smaller and even stronger afterward.

"this boy"

The Pirate King muttered with the corner of his mouth raised, and then took a bite of the pork leg in his hand.
