Don't confiscate my citizenship

Loren just smiled when he heard Lanqi's answer.

He did not tell Lanqi the specific number and gently raised his fingertips on the table.

Suddenly, Lanci and Hyperion both showed expressions of surprise.

Their bodies could not move at all at this moment, and it was not a feeling of normal control.

It was as if just because of Loren's thought, the surrounding air currents solidified into steel!

It was a kind of restraint that they would not be able to find any way to break free of even if they became ten times stronger in an instant.

At this moment, Loren, who was looking at the two of them, was obviously calm and composed. Even the magic power in his body did not tremble at all. He did not use any strength at all.

"It's the same even if you're hundreds of meters away."

Loren said calmly.

Then Loren let go of Lanci and Hyperion, allowing their two stiff bodies to relax again.

Loren didn’t make them feel miserable though.

But they were already very sure that if they wanted to strangle them with the wind just now, all they needed was a thought.

"I understand. No wonder they say that only an eighth-level warrior can defeat an eighth-level warrior..."

Lan Qi nodded.

It turns out that the eighth level and those below are not in the same league at all.

The ninth level is even more unimaginable for Lanqi now.

Based on Loren's demonstration, Lanci could roughly infer that if he and Hyperion appeared in the field of vision of the Bishop of Destruction, it would only take a moment for the Bishop of Destruction to kill them.

Only Hyperion could withstand a few more hits with her shield and immunity, but it was meaningless.

Not to mention the mastery of spells and the rank of magic cards, the difference between the two sides in basic attributes alone is hundreds of times.

And with their current strength, even if they could design an opportunity to fight against the eighth-level vampire marquis in a closed terrain, they would still be doomed to die.

"Also, Hyperion, you must not reveal that you have demon blood in the Protoss Empire."

Loren knew that Hyperion now had a transformation spell that could bypass any detection methods of the Kingdom of Hutton and perfectly disguise herself as a human, so he reminded her.

"why?"

Hyperion asked confused.

Due to information blockage and delay, the authenticity of many books and intelligence about the Northern Continent circulating on the market is actually questionable.

Only someone like Loren, who has personally been to the Northern Continent, can be absolutely trustworthy in what he says.

"In the latest law of the Protos Empire in recent years, disguising one's race is a capital crime, and the person will be sentenced to death as a warning to others, because different races and bloodlines will have huge class differences in the Protos Empire."

Loren explained to her.

"What if I just use the half-demon identity?"

Hyperion thought for a moment and asked.

Since the risk of being exposed is not zero, maybe it’s better to just be honest.

"Then if you can't prove that you are free, you will most likely be captured and made a slave of the demons. The demons are a lower class of criminals in the Protoss Empire's hierarchy and have almost no human rights."

Loren shook his head.

Although the mixed-blood demons are stronger, most of them are good-looking demons bought by nobles and wealthy businessmen. Their offspring are not actually treated as nobles, and it is good enough that they can live a little better than ordinary people.

"Is there such a thing?"

Lanqi frowned slightly.

"Just pretend to be human. If you don't take the initiative to cause trouble, you won't cause any disputes."

Loren said seriously,

"Of course, you should also be aware that it's not just the stone tablet holders who are dangerous in the North Continent. It's not that stone tablet holders are necessarily stronger than non-holders. Some of the strongest people just have more complex attributes, and for them, the fixed fifth-level slot of the original stone tablet is not worth consuming. Even if they have the opportunity to get the original stone tablet, they don't choose to use it for themselves, or they don't get the right stone tablet. It can only be said that in order to obtain a stone tablet, in addition to hard power, luck also plays a big part."

"I understand, Dean Loren."

"I can't protect you outside the capital. You need to remember that not everywhere is as peaceful as the Hutton Kingdom. You both have a grudge against the Resurrection Church. Sometimes there will be some greedy people who will covet the bounty and target you two. So you must be careful and conceal your identity."

Loren was silent for a moment, then spoke earnestly.

He was still a little surprised to hear that Lanci and Hyperion were going so far away.

Although he hoped that Ranch and Hyperion could travel to the Northern Continent for a longer period of time, he still put their safety first.

"You can delay your return for up to two months. If you exceed this time limit, you will be at risk of being expelled."

Loren stamped them with three different official seals and handed the documents back to them.

Including the three and a half months of vacation, there are a total of five and a half months. Normally, it is enough to go to the northern continent for an exploration.

The situation in the southern continent is turbulent now, and the balance formed over the years among dozens of countries, large and small, may be gradually broken. Loren also hopes that in recent years, their Hutton Kingdom will have another pillar-level strongman.

The world is vast, and it is a good opportunity for Ranch and Hyperion to go and see it. This is also an indispensable experience to catalyze their growth.

Anyway, the two of them had already been through [Purgatory Corridor Academy] and [Temple Villain Dinner], two shadow worlds that seemed extremely dangerous to freshmen, so Loren had nothing to worry about them now.

As long as they don't take the initiative to seek death, based on their talents, they are already considered pretty good young and strong people in the outside world.

He had just explained so much, and he believed that a guy as smart as Lanqi would never have any thoughts of seeking death again.

Please give me a monthly ticket! Thanks on my knees!

Chapter 236: Ranchi's Racial Compatibility

In the winter of December, the bell of Ikrit Academy struck three o'clock in the afternoon.

Frey's quarters had the feel of a detective's office.

On the dark brown walls hung some newspaper clippings and old maps of cases he had solved. His desk was cluttered with documents and notes. Beside the desk there was a microscope, a few alchemical reagent jars, and an open geography magazine.

In the compartments of the floor-standing shelves on one side of the desk were some newspapers, manuscripts, magnifying glasses, fingerprint powder, and magic props of unknown purpose.

Two leather sofas sat beside the fireplace, ready for visitors or for Frey himself to use.

As the clanging of the ancient bell tower echoed, Lanci and Frey looked out the window.

Thanks to the prestige he had accumulated in the student union over the past few months, Frey's little-known detective agency now occasionally receives commissions.

But Frey's way of doing things is very different from that of ordinary detectives. Hiring him will face the risk of counterproductive results, and the price is proportional to his ability, so unless it is absolutely necessary, no one will easily ask Frey for help.

Now that the holiday has come, the detective agency is completely closed.

On the low table in front of Frey were newspapers and two cups of black tea.

However, this was not a business meeting, but a temporary farewell to Lanqi.

Ever since Hyperion lived in Cat Boss's restaurant, the two of them often stayed together. Lanci was not only Frey's legal advisor, but sometimes also Frey's right-hand man in his detective work.

"Lanqi, your level is forty-six."

Frey held up a dark gray crystal, glanced at Lanqi through the light on it, and said.

"That's it."

Lanqi thought it made sense. After the last Shadow World, he went from level 3 to level 4, and it didn't feel like he had just reached level 4, and he wasn't particularly far from level 5.

"How much are you, Frey?"

"fifty-four."

Frey replied.

Over the past few months, based on this hierarchy theory that Lanqi first proposed unintentionally in casual conversation, the [Level Identification Technique] jointly developed by the Alchemy Institute and the Magic Engineering Institute of Ikrit Academy is now spreading rapidly in the southern continent.

Since the magic itself is very simple in structure and is more of a set of theories, and some effort has been put into measuring, defining, and calculating the conversion values, it is very easy to spread. Spell versions, magic card versions, and magic item versions of the [Grading Identification Technique] already exist, and it has even spread to the Northern Continent through the communication between challengers in the Shadow World.

There may be an explosive wave of popularity in the next few months.

The research team pointed out in the paper that the first person to propose this theory was Lanqi Wilford. If this research can achieve considerable success in the next two years, even if Lanqi did not participate in it at all, it may also gain considerable academic reputation.

Although this identification spell is ineffective against strong people in normal state.

Strong people usually hide themselves. For example, Dean Loren looks like he is at level one or even level zero, but he is actually at level eight.

"But I got the news from the Alchemy Institute. In order to assist in the research, the level of Dean Loren was measured to be 87 during the development process."

"No wonder he's so abnormally strong."

At the level of Ranch and Frey, they might be able to win by relying on talent differences, special mechanisms or restraint relationships by crossing a few levels. But at the end of the sixth stage, starting from level 69, it has been calculated that each level will have a very large growth, and the gap in attributes brought by the levels is increasingly difficult to make up for by other factors.

There are only a few ninth-order strongmen in the northern and southern continents in this world. There is a reason why Loren can be called the strongest person protecting the Kingdom of Hutton.

The two chatted idly.

Now after the holidays, the campus is much quieter, and there are no student union affairs. They actually feel like they have nothing to do after retirement.

"What a shame, I can't go to the Northern Continent with you this time."

Frey leaned back on the couch and sighed.

I heard that the underground casinos in the Protoss Empire are quite powerful.

He will be watched by Dean Sphentos for the next three months and will not be able to escape from the royal capital Ikerit.

In other words, if he had the ability to escape from Ikerite under the hands of Dean Sfintos, then his training would be considered to be successful.

"Frey, we may be back late this time. If you have the chance to visit Shadow World alone during the holidays, you don't have to wait for us. We may not be back until next semester."

Lanqi looked at the calendar and thought about it, then said to Frey with certainty.

It’s mid-December now and they probably won’t be back until April or May next year.

Frey also reached the silver level directly, and he could participate in the challenge of the real shadow world alone without forming a team.

For a numerical monster like Frey, his own level is particularly important, and each level upgrade will bring a qualitative change in his combat power.

In the first node of the blood moon, a vampire baron appeared, and in the second node, a vampire viscount and even a vampire earl appeared. So, there is a high probability that a vampire marquis will appear in the shadow world of the next blood moon.

Even if the three of them have cooled down, they can't go on the challenge together. Everyone needs to become as strong as possible first.

Sometimes the strength gap is too big, and no matter what strategy you use, it may be useless. Even if you successfully complete the mechanism, you will still be wiped out.
