"I'm not the one who makes the decision on this matter. How about I let my little man talk to you?"
Without waiting for the other party to reply, Natasha pulled the reluctant Rhine to the communication orb.
"Let me introduce you. This is the little man I just found. Since he's a pretty boy, you can call him White-Faced Wiseman."
"Wait, that's not a good name!" Rhine protested.
Who is White-Faced Wiseman? He is a well-known villain! If he hadn't checked the family tree and found that there was no such person as Gaeluge Wiseman, Rhine would have suspected that their Wiseman family was full of scum.
"And when did I become your man? Don't say such nonsense, it will lead to misunderstandings." Rhine did not give Natasha any face and refuted the rumor on the spot.
"Didn't you see my body yesterday? You don't want to deny it?" Natasha puffed up her cheeks, looking very cute.
"What era is this? Don't play that on me." Rhine shook his head.
"I don't care what era it is, but for the Silver Moon Elves who value chastity, once a man sees their naked body, they will either kill him or castrate him," Natasha threatened.
"Didn't I tell you not to play that trick on me? It won't work on me. I know more tricks than you've ever eaten."
Rhine is like a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water. Does he really think that all these years of watching animation and novels are in vain? He has long been aesthetically tired of this routine.
“Although I don’t want to interrupt your flirting, I want to say that what she said is true. The Silver Moon Elves are the most arrogant race in the world. If someone sees the body of a Silver Moon Elves, he will be close to death.” The Golden Witch reminded.
"I'm going, is it true?"
Lai Yin was a little depressed. Isn't this a plot that only appears in novels? How did he encounter it? Is the player's inherent protagonist halo really so overbearing? (Every player is the protagonist of his own world.)
"Of course it's true. If you don't believe me, you can go to the Silvermoon Forest with me in person." Natasha said dissatisfiedly.
"What should I do? Don't say stupid things like asking me to marry you. I'm still a child. What you are doing is a crime. A pony can't pull a big cart." Rhine predicted in advance.
Because according to international practice, he had already guessed what would happen next.
"........."
"........."
"Forget it, I don't want to get involved in your business. I just want to know if this conspiracy against the Kingdom of Solcie was planned by you?" The Golden Witch asked Rhine.
"It's me," Rhine admitted.
"How far do you want to go?"
"Are you here to negotiate for them?"
"No, but as a guest of the Kingdom of Solcie, I have the right to inquire about this matter."
If she had not been cared for by the royal family of the Kingdom of Solcière for hundreds of years, she really would not want to get involved in such a mess.
"Are you familiar with her?" Rhine asked Natasha, who was a little unhappy.
"I'm familiar with her, but I'm not familiar with her either. She and I were competitors of the same period. Her full name is Beatrice Castiglione. She is nicknamed the Golden Witch and the Infinite Witch. She is a pure human being."
"I was able to break through the half-step divine realm because of the blessing of the high elf bloodline, and she reached the ultimate human realm through her own efforts. She is the strongest witch besides me."
Natasha introduced to Rhine.
"Do you know Ushiromiya Battler?" Rhine suddenly asked.
"Who is that?" the Golden Witch asked blankly.
"If you don't know her, then it's okay." Rhine breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that the one who had intruded was only Beato from his previous life, otherwise he would have been scared to death.
"Since you know Natasha, I'll reply so you can report back."
"The Magical Unification Association will not interfere with the future development of the kingdom. We are only here to take back what belongs to us."
"As for what it is, you can go ask the king."
That's right, Rhine had never thought of letting the Magic Unification Association move into the Ministry of Magic. After all, the association was a self-defense organization. If it interfered in other countries' internal affairs at will, then the nature of the organization would change.
"I understand. In this case, I won't interfere in this matter." Then the Golden Witch hung up the phone.
"What's wrong, are you angry?"
Looking at Natasha who was pouting, Rhine wondered if what he said was too much.
"Hmph." Natasha turned her head away.
Although she had no intention of holding Rhine responsible, after all, she ran away because of her incompatibility with the Silver Moon Elves, and she didn't care about any bullshit rules, but she still felt a little annoyed when she heard Rhine say that.
"Alas, actually I think you all have the wrong person. I'm just a substitute. If you want to be sad, I should be the one who should be the saddest, right?" Rhine looked a little lonely.
Whether it's Yuuko Ichihara, Fran, or Natasha in front of them, the person they really care about is actually another Rhine. When she thinks of this Rhine, she feels a little jealous of his future self.
"Although I followed you at first because you looked like the first president, I am following you now purely out of curiosity."
"Because you always bring me unexpected surprises. When I am with you, I always look forward to what will happen in the future. This sense of freshness has a fatal attraction to me who has lived for hundreds of years." Natasha said what she had always wanted to say.
She actually didn't care whether Rhine was the reincarnation of the first president. She just stayed with him because he looked like the first president.
"In fact, apart from the portrait, I have never seen the first president. He was already dead when I was born. We have never had any intersection. I only know you now, so how can you be a substitute?"
"Thank you."
Originally, Rhine was supposed to coax Natasha, but unexpectedly, the situation turned out to be the other way around, and it was Natasha who coaxed him...
"What are you thanking me for? Perhaps we should get to know each other again. My name is Natasha, and I'm the current president of the Magical Unification Association."
Natasha held out her hand to Rhine.
"My name is Reinhardt, the future master of the world."
Rhine held Natasha's hand and said.
(This chapter directly covers the chapter with the bug last night. I won't let those who have subscribed automatically subscribe for nothing. I still have this quality. It's not that I update the underworld, but I really can't spare the time during the day. Who is willing to stay up until three or four in the middle of the night to write it earlier? So please vote.)
Chapter 146: Aunt, why are you here? (Long chapter)
"By the way, where did you get that communication prop? I want one too." After untying his knot, Rhine's attitude towards Natasha changed a lot.
Before this, he had always treated Natasha as a tool, believing that she had ulterior motives in approaching him, and never thought that she stayed by his side because he could bring her a sense of novelty.
Although this reason is a bit strange, it seems not completely incomprehensible if you think about it carefully. For the immortals who have lived for hundreds of years and seen too many things, their emotions have long become numb, and they rarely change their moods due to external factors.
Some extreme cases may even seek death on their own initiative, like CC in Code Geass and Letilie Dagurood in Endymion's Miracle.
Although Natasha is not worn out to this extent, her confusion about the future and numbness towards life are real. The appearance of Rhine is like painting a colorful picture in her black and white world.
Why does Rhine look exactly like the first president?
His true identity is only 4 years old?
But how can a 4-year-old child know so much?
Why can he use the power of the domain when he is only at the level of a magic apprentice?
Why is it that someone who is only a magic apprentice can burst out to a level comparable to that of a legend?
Is he really the son of destiny who will set off the tide of the times as predicted?
The future master of the world, what a big tone, but she actually felt that Rhine was not just talking nonsense.
Anyway, as long as she stayed with Rhine, she would always gain unexpected things. Thinking about her previous monotonous life, it suddenly seemed so boring.
She wanted to witness the rise of Rhine, wanted to witness the future of Rhine, wanted to witness what kind of changes Rhine would bring to the world. She felt that every day of her life was meaningful now, and her expectations for tomorrow were rekindled. This was a purification of the soul.
"Are you talking about the communication orb?" Natasha asked, raising the crystal ball in her hand.
"Well, do you still have this thing? Give me one... No, give me two, or you can sell it to me." Rhine said bluntly.
He thought that if he had two, he could send one of the communication beads to Irena, so that he could video chat with Irena every day no matter how far away they were.
Natasha shook her head. "I only have one. If you want it, I'll give it to you."
"If it's just one, forget it. Just tell me where you got it."
"It's an ancient relic found in an underground maze." Natasha replied.
"I understand, I understand. It's another relic from the era of the High Elves, right?" Rhine complained.
Because the impact of the Age of the High Elves on the world was so great, apart from the Age of the Gods when the gods reigned, the Age of the High Elves was the only era that unified the entire world.
Note that this unification does not refer to a single continent, but to the entire planet. Basically, every corner of the world's continents has historical sites from the High Elves Era, so 95% of the ancient relics excavated are from the High Elves Era.
"Well, about 90% of people would think so when talking about ancient relics. However, this thing is indeed a creation of the High Elves Era, but it is not a communication tool." Natasha denied.
"Because the communication tools during the era of the High Elves were extremely advanced, their level of sophistication was far beyond what the Communication Orb could compare to."
"They use something called a force transmitter when communicating. Through the force transmitter, people can let their consciousness enter a virtual space called the God's Domain Network. In this virtual space, users can communicate face to face with people from all over the world."
What Natasha meant was that the communication tools during the High Elves era were much more advanced than the communication orbs.
"I know. I've read about it in relevant books." Rhine had learned long before that virtual reality technology was quite advanced during the High Elves Era, with a fairly complete metaverse social system, and the guide device system was popularized in almost every household.
"Although this thing is called a communication orb, it does not only have the function of communication. It is better to say that communication is just an additional function. Its real function is the 'core of the maze.'" Natasha explained to Rhine.
“Mazes, secret realms, and dungeons are the most common relics of ancient civilizations. The ‘maze core’ is located at the deepest part of the bottom layer of a maze with a unique ecosystem. It is an indispensable key item to maintain the operation of the maze.”
"Once the core of the maze is destroyed or stops functioning, the environment (temperature, humidity, etc.) and ecosystem inside the maze will also collapse, and it will eventually become a dead city. Well, you can think of this crystal ball as the control center of the maze."
"Although adventurers in this world make a living by exploring mazes, their ultimate goal is to stop the maze core from functioning, so that they can thoroughly explore the entire underground maze and take away all valuables."
"But the deeper you go into the maze, the stronger the monsters you encounter. Looking at the entire continent, it will take several years or even decades for an adventurer to conquer the entire maze."
"Wait a minute, what is the essence of the maze?" Rhine asked curiously.
"You may not believe it, but the 'maze' is just a 'children's playground' from the era of the high elves... The puzzle elements and monsters in it are artificially set up to train children's courage, wisdom, and strength. Mazes of different difficulty levels correspond to children of different age groups." Natasha revealed a corner of the truth about the world.
After hearing this, Lai felt that his three views were overturned. The maze that the adventurers risked their lives to conquer turned out to be a children's playground? Or was it a real-life "escape room" game for children?
No wonder there are so many puzzle elements in the maze, and there are constant monster refreshes. There are always various treasure chests in the corners of the maze, and props and equipment will be dropped when the monsters are defeated. After conquering the maze, you will get a lot of rewards.
Wow, he was wondering why there was such a strange setting, now he finally understood everything.
"What about secret realms and dungeons?"
"The essence of the secret realm is various bases, such as research bases, grain planting bases, military bases, livestock breeding bases, industrial construction bases, talent training bases... and so on." Natasha explained again.
It matched, and it matched exactly what he had guessed at the beginning! He had thought about it when he learned about the secret realm of the demon clan from the Red Jade Demon King!
"And what about the dungeon?"
"The dungeon is a training ground. The monsters inside are also artificially created. They will automatically refresh after a period of time after the monsters are killed. The monsters in the dungeon are countless times stronger than those in the maze. There are no treasure chests in the dungeon, and there will be no drops after killing monsters. There are no puzzles, only endless fighting. In short, this is a place where people can quickly become stronger. No one knows what is in the deepest part of the dungeon, but it is said that those who have conquered the dungeon have finally broken through to the divine realm."
Natasha has successfully conquered mazes, secret realms, and dungeons, and because of her high elf blood, she has also reached many places that ordinary people cannot reach, so she knows so many secrets of the world.
This… this strange setting really wasn’t created by the system for the players? The High Elf Dynasty was destroyed by the system, right? Otherwise, he really couldn’t imagine how such a powerful dynasty could disappear overnight…
Just as Rhine was daydreaming, someone knocked on the door of the contestant lounge: "Mr. Wiseman, the other contestants are already here, only you are missing."
"Okay, I'll come." Rhine shook his head and decided to put this matter aside for the time being.
"Go ahead. Don't think too much. When you have time, I'll take you to the maze. In addition to the communication orb, there are many useless but strange little things in there."
Although she only has one communication orb, it is not because she can only get one, but because she thinks that it is useless to have too many of these children's toys. (Note that this child is not a human child. High elves reach adulthood at the age of 150.)
The target "user group" of the maze is professionals from apprentice to king level (witch), because the purpose of its construction is to train children, so even if they don't use force, they can rely on intelligence to complete various puzzles to meet the conditions for clearing the maze. It is not necessary to kill their way through the maze, so even low-level professionals have the possibility of conquering the maze.
Since the secret realm is a base, there will be many ruins guarding it and various defense mechanisms, so usually only professionals who have reached the Saint level (senior witch) or Great Saint level (great witch) are suitable for strategy. As for the last dungeon, it is the trial place for legendary strongmen.
For a legendary warrior, there is no point in conquering a maze, because the wealth and props inside are of no use to a legendary warrior. If Rhine wants the communication orb, he can probably get through the maze in one second.
"If one studies alone without friends, one will be ignorant and uninformed; if one studies diligently and communicates, one will be knowledgeable and wise."
"Communication is the magic weapon to keep knowledge fresh, and communication is the ladder for continuous academic innovation."
“I am very happy to be able to meet with you all on such a wonderful afternoon to discuss academic exchanges.”
"First, please allow me to introduce the guests from the home country of Solsier Kingdom. They are Solsier Kingdom's legendary guardian wizards, the Golden Witch Lady and the Pure White Witch Lady. Next are Solsier Kingdom's King Styard, Duke Kulaiyes and Duke Addis, and Prime Minister Askat."
The Kingdom branch director, who served as the organizer and host, introduced the tens of thousands of witches present one by one.
That’s right, all the audiences who came to watch the academic exchange meeting this time were mages who had reached the level of witches. Magicians were not qualified to enter at all. The reason was...
"On the other side is the witch guest group consisting of the legendary wizard Life Witch, the legendary wizard Ash Witch, the legendary wizard Dawn Witch, the legendary wizard Peace Witch, the legendary wizard Scarlet Witch, and the Half-Step God Realm Hero Witch."
When Rhine entered the stadium, he saw his "relatives and friends" sitting on the podium. His aunt even waved at him with a smile, obviously knowing that he was Rhine, which made him almost fall to his knees.
When Rhine saw Natasha's slightly raised mouth corners, he knew that she must be the one behind it!
