Please be my partner.

This gives it an almost overwhelming advantage in the same class.

The giant warriors turned to Spike, realizing that they could not pursue him smoothly with the latter blocking their way, so they immediately turned their spears on the dog, trying to kill it in a short time.

Spike's fighting spirit was boiling, and he went forward without flinching.

The night grows deeper, and when the clock strikes twelve, the whole world turns upside down.

The power of glory dissipated, and madness and weirdness took over.

As the black air surged, the aura of Safra and the giant warriors also rose steadily.

It was as if they had taken off a heavy layer of shackles and were finally able to unleash their full strength.

But at this moment, a smile of victory appeared on Mellen's lips.

At the end of his sight, he could see the edge of the clouds. The magic vine seemed to have noticed Mellen and was swaying happily, as if to welcome him.

Melen slightly hooked the [Dog of Corruption] with his fingers, directly detonating the hidden poison that had been cast earlier.

That's right, he had noticed long ago that all the giants chasing him had more or less hidden poison lurking in their bodies.

But this is not surprising. They have just woken up from a deep sleep. In the process of chasing Mellen, they naturally need to drink water and eat to replenish some energy. They can't chase the enemy on an empty stomach.

At the same time, cast [Contract Summoning] to summon the two dogs to your side.

With their power greatly increased, Safra and the giant warriors suppressed Spike and Little Red Lotus almost instantly. When they were about to launch a fatal attack, the toxins in their bodies suddenly erupted, slowing their movements. Then they watched helplessly as the two dogs disappeared in front of them.

Looking at Spike and Little Red Lotus who were covered in bruises, Melen's eyes flashed with heartache, and he put them back into the [Blue Ring].

Just when Melen thought the mission had been successfully completed...

Giant's Castle, fifth floor.

This place is not luxurious, but rather seems a bit empty. There is only a throne in the center, and on the throne is the sleeping Giant King.

As the fairy tale reversal came, the Giant King slowly opened his eyes, and then he noticed that the black swan was missing.

Following the inexplicable connection, his sight penetrated through layers of barriers and saw the small figure that had reached the edge of the cloud and was about to leave.

The Giant King indifferently picked up the huge harp leaning against the throne. Compared with other harps, this harp was flatter and longer, and had only three strings on it.

This is one of the three treasures of the Giant Kingdom, the King's Scepter.

The Giant King gently plucked one of the strings, and a crisp sound came out... Ding!

The sound faded away in an instant, but nothing unusual happened along the way.

At the edge of the clouds, Melen smiled and called out, then was about to follow the magic vine down and return to the fairy tale kingdom.

But at this moment, a great feeling of terror swept through his mind, and almost driven by instinct, he jumped down suddenly.

What Mellen didn't expect was that the magic vine seemed to sense something, and its tentacles grew wildly. Most of them blocked him directly, and a small part wrapped him up and fell quickly.

"Bah!~"

A slight sound, like something sharp cutting through the air.

All parts of the magic vine above the clouds were crushed in an instant.

In addition to the physical damage, this invisible attack also causes mental harm.

Even though Mellen was already far away, his spirit was still affected, as if he was cut by countless sharp blades, and he immediately fell into a coma.

Chapter 128 Do You Want to Be King?

After an unknown amount of time, Melen woke up from the chaos and opened his eyes weakly.

The first thing I saw was the white and unfamiliar ceiling.

I tilted my head slightly and looked out the window. The soft sunlight shone into the room, giving me a warm feeling.

During the day, around ten o'clock.

This was the information he received.

He first examined himself and found that nothing on his body had been touched.

Then, Mellen began to look around. Judging from the layout, it didn't look like anyone's home, but more like a hospital ward or something like that.

Rubbing his still dizzy head, his mind began to slowly return.

The blood mist in the [Azure Ring] reached out and, through the connection of the contract, transmitted what happened after he fell into a coma.

Above the clouds, just as Meren was about to leave the Giant Kingdom, he was inexplicably attacked.

Although he didn't know what kind of means that was used, but when he thought about it carefully, the person who could still attack him under the circumstances at that time should be the legendary giant king.

The magic vine's final protection was somewhat beyond his expectations. Although it suffered heavy damage, it finally protected Melen and returned to the fairy tale kingdom.

Then the magic vine kept guarding the unconscious Mellen until dawn.

When the fairy tale characters started their new day, they found the unconscious Mellen and took him to the nearest hospital.

Mellen was in a coma at the time, but because he had no obvious external injuries, the doctor had to put him in bed to rest.

After sorting it all out, Mellen breathed a sigh of relief.

This is already the fourth day in the fairy tale kingdom, and there is not much time left before the final reincarnation reset.

Thinking of this, Mellen stood up and prepared to leave.

At this moment, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a "familiar person" in a white coat appeared in front of him.

Ada looked at Melen who had woken up and said with a smile: "You are awake, outsider."

Mellen remained silent.

Ada shook her head and said, "Well, it seems I can't hide it anymore. You should have understood my identity by now. When you saw me just now, there was a noticeable change in your eyes. How did you notice it?"

Mellen responded vaguely: "Yeah, I saw you outside before."

Ada said, "You were really lucky yesterday to be able to survive that situation, even though you seemed to have suffered serious injuries."

As she said this, Ada stared at Mellen with a scrutinizing expression.

Mellen remained calm and did not answer the question.

Ada retracted her gaze and said, "Since we are all outsiders, our demands are basically the same. Do you want to unite?"

Mellen asked, "How do we unite?"

Ada said, "We will share information in the fairy tale kingdom, and we will advance and retreat together after leaving the fairy tale kingdom."

"I think you should understand. Since those people outside threw us here, they definitely didn't intend to let us leave alive. No matter what promises they made, they can't be trusted!"

Mellen nodded, as if convinced by him, and replied: "Okay!"

Ada paused and said, "To show my sincerity, I can share a piece of information first..."

"After midnight, you've probably experienced the madness of fairy tale characters. Actually, there are ways to avoid it."

Ada pointed at herself and continued, "Some fairy tale characters are immune to madness. As long as we can build good relationships with them, or work under them like I am doing now, we can be protected."

"From the looks of you, you probably haven't found a patron yet. How about I introduce you to the hospital's director? They're probably still short of a security guard. Of course, if you have medical skills, you could also become an intern like me."

Melen shook his head, thought for a moment, and said, "In that case, let me share some information with you. The Fairy Tale Kingdom will reincarnate and reset every seven days. If you can't escape before then, you will be assimilated by this forbidden object, and the probability of escaping will become increasingly low."

Ada's heart trembled, and she asked hurriedly, "Then do you know how to leave here?"

Melen nodded and said, "When the fairy tale turns around on the seventh day, the gate to the outside world will open. That will be the best chance to escape."

Ada was completely stunned. They had spent countless efforts in the past few days trying to find a way to leave the fairy tale kingdom, but they didn't expect to get the answer just by asking casually today.

According to his understanding, this was the first time the two sides met, and they should start with a simple exchange of information and gradually build trust.

Even if there is trust, such important information should be exchanged for sufficient benefits.

But why did the other party tell him directly when they met?

Who would play a 'king bomb' directly when the opponent plays a '3' when playing cards?

Ada looked a little suspicious, he suspected that the information was made up by the other party.

Seeing Ada's expression, Melen fell silent. Suddenly, he smiled slightly and activated his Faceless ability, transforming into the Wind that Ada and the others knew. He said in a slightly hoarse voice, "I'm sorry for lying to you earlier. I ran into some trouble, so I had to use a fake identity."

In fact, Mellen was not too afraid of being exposed. Besides, he was able to enter the fairy tale kingdom thanks to Ada and the other two, and he must repay this favor.

In this case, instead of making them suspicious, which may lead to misunderstandings over time, it is better to make things clear directly.

Of course, Melen would definitely not say that he joined their team just to enter the fairy tale kingdom.

Firstly, it is difficult to explain, and secondly, it also involves the images seen in destiny.

Seeing Mellen's changed appearance, Ada opened her mouth wide and exclaimed: "Uncle Hayate?!"

Mellen nodded with a smile, and returned to his original appearance. He said, "You can call me Mellen, Mellen Warwick."

It took Ada a while to accept the fact that the mature and steady 'Uncle Hayate' was actually a guy about their age in disguise.

Now that his identity had been revealed, Melen no longer hesitated and directly told him many ideas and taboos of the fairy tale kingdom.

Ada didn't care about being shocked and quickly wrote them down one by one.

After finishing his instructions, Mellen nodded slightly to Ada and said, "I still have some things to do, so I'll leave first. You guys be careful these few days."

Ada stared blankly at Mellen as he left, wanting to say something but stopping himself several times.

After Mellen left, Ada found Yanis who was tidying the medicine cabinet and Yimeng who was guarding the door, and briefly told them about her meeting with Mellen.

The two were also stunned.

Anis curled her lips and said, "That Uncle Jifeng... no, that Mellen, he actually lied to us?! I always thought of him as a senior, but it turns out he was taking advantage of me the whole time!"

Yanis felt depressed when she thought about how she had been calling a peer "uncle".

Yi Meng said, "Didn't he say that he had to change his identity because he was in trouble? And we were the ones who took the initiative to find him before."

Ada also laughed and said, "Everyone has their own secrets. Didn't we also not tell him our true identities?"

Then he added, "However, to be able to gather so much information about the Fairy Tale Kingdom in such a short time, it seems that Mr. Mellen is no ordinary person."

Looking at the hospital behind him, a trace of solemnity flashed across Mellen's expression.

He now has a preliminary understanding of the upper limit of the power of the fairy tale characters in the fairy tale kingdom.

If the Giant King can reach the legendary level, then what about Pinocchio, one of the two dukes of the Fairy Tale Kingdom?

What about those fairy tale characters who are powerful enough to integrate their normal fairy tales and dark fairy tales?

Are they all legendary?!

If this line of thought is correct, then the hospital that Ada mentioned that could provide them with shelter when the fairy tale turns around is likely to contain legendary characters.

Moreover, when he was in the hospital, he could feel the fear and trembling transmitted by the [Dog of Corruption].

It seemed as if there was some unimaginable superior being that was exerting actual oppression on it.

Of course, neither Mellen, Spike, nor Xiao Honglian could feel this kind of oppression.

After looking away, Melen asked about his current location and walked towards Anna's tent.

There is no need to rush about Pinocchio. Although the former did not show any malice, Melen still did not want to meet the other party in his current state.

Moreover, he also needed Anna, a fortune teller, to give him some forward-looking advice.

When Mellen returned to the tent, Anna was first happy, then shocked.

The good news is that Mellen returned safely.

Although Anna used divination to confirm that Mellen was fine, the day he disappeared still made her feel extremely crazy.

What was shocking was naturally Mellen's current state.

His face is pale and his steps are unsteady, it's obvious that he's been indulging in lust... well, it's obvious that his mental strength has been damaged.

Anna helped Mellen sit down, staring at him without blinking, her eyes full of anticipation, like a little girl waiting for an adult to tell her a story.

Melen smiled slightly and without hiding anything, briefly recounting his experience after reaching the clouds.

After hearing this, Anna said in shock, "You're saying that you stole a legendary master's treasure right under his nose? And then, just when you were about to escape, you were attacked by him using some inexplicable means?!"

Mellen nodded and said, "You can say that."

Anna screamed and yelled for a long time before she barely recovered.

As a fortune teller in the Special Affairs Bureau, although Anna does not have much actual power, the authority she possesses is quite high. She has access to a lot of confidential information and understands the true weight of legendary strongmen.
