After making up his mind, Xiao Zhi handed the teleportation stones depicting the magic circle to Gretta and Frost respectively.

This was created by Xiao Zhi after he often traveled to and from Hessen some time ago. It was specially designed to lead to the small teleportation array newly set up in the Hall of Bones. Occasionally, he and Frost would use this teleportation array when they needed to do something sneaky.

After all, more and more people are paying attention to the regent now. Every time he goes to the trade area, he can get everyone's attention, which is not convenient at all.

Frost instantly understood what Xiao Zhi meant.

Greerata was playing with the teleportation stone, looking very interested.

"Prepare, I will teleport immediately when the meeting is bad." After speaking, Xiao Zhi stepped forward and walked towards the quiet Dream Maker's Book, and stretched his hand to the top of the Dream Maker's Book.

In the next instant, the Dream Maker's Book had already entered his backpack, and he didn't make any demons.

The backpack is one of the few golden fingers that players have on the mainland. It can not only stop the passage of time, but also seal up dangerous items. As long as they are not taken out, these things will not make any changes in the backpack.

Just used to collect this dream maker's book whose activation method is unknown.

Gretta's eyes widened: "Athanasi?"

There is a subtle difference between the Athanasi people and those who use ordinary storage rings when collecting things. They don't need to actually touch the items, they just need to get close to a range. And other races on the continent need to personally touch the things that need to be stored before they can put it in the storage ring.

He did not expect that the regent of Hesse was actually an Asanasi.

This is not at all in line with the consensus of all countries in the mainland. No matter what country or race, they basically do not want the Asanaxi people who behave uncontrollably or even disappear suddenly to become their own high-level leaders.

He turned his head and glanced at Frost, the Lord looked calm, as if he was used to it, obviously he knew it for a long time.

Is this the style of a macho?

Hesse is such a magical place...

"Hehehehe..."

Greatta was sighing with emotion, and suddenly saw that after the Dreamer's Book disappeared, a dazzling light suddenly lit up on the altar.

Gretta recognized this thing at a glance: "It's the Mystery Formation! This is the formation used by Blaise to warn, and it also has the function of teleportation."

Xiao Zhi also heard a vague message from the formation: "The 13 seals have... report to..."

The voice was vague and he couldn't hear it clearly, but it didn't affect his understanding that Blaise had noticed that the Dream Maker's Book had been taken away.

Xiao Zhi made a decisive decision: "Let's go."

After speaking, the three people instantly activated the teleportation stone and disappeared in place.

After a while, the Paladins in high-grade armor stepped out of the teleportation formation, but only the empty altar appeared in front of them, and the Dreamer's Book disappeared.

Holland, the capital of the Brace Empire, the Cathedral of St. Yao.

In a luxuriously furnished room.

The man in the archbishop's uniform was sitting at the table. He should actually be almost forty, but he looked much younger than his actual age. He was only about thirty years old. Delicate and soft, but with a serious look, he looks like the most traditional vindicator.

This is Archbishop Sannick, who is usually stationed at Saint Yao Cathedral most of the time. At this moment, he is looking at the secret report in his hand.

Sonnick's brows furrowed: "Number 13... there is, the Dreamer's Book."

The dreamer's book is a somewhat dangerous thing, it will pull people close to it into the book and make up all kinds of bizarre worlds for them. The criteria for selecting objects are unclear. Some people will be absorbed as soon as they approach, and some people will not be affected even if they come into direct contact with them. The former senior level of Brace had done many experiments, but still could not grasp the rules of selecting people in the Book of Dreamers.

Everyone thought the Dreamer's Book had been abandoned, but Sonnick knew that it was actually acquired by Pope Andre.

And... also has an exclusive function, which has been sealed underground for hundreds of years.

Sonnick tapped on the table with his slender fingertips and continued the secret report: "The villagers said that there were adventurers in the vicinity during this period of time... There was no conversation, and the purpose was unknown."

"Adventurers... Can the seal of the Dream Maker's Book be cracked so easily? That was... set up by myself..."

"Are they unaffected by the Dreamer's Book, or have they managed to escape from it? What have they discovered..."

Thinking about it, Sonnick frowned more and more tightly, and finally couldn't help ringing the summoning bell on the table.

"His Excellency the Archbishop." A young man in a deacon uniform walked into the room and respectfully saluted Sonnick.

Sonnick handed over the secret report: "Quick, give this document to that lord."

"Yes." The person accepted it respectfully.

Just when he turned to leave, Sonnick suddenly stopped him: "Wait!"

"What else do you have to order, Your Excellency?" The visitor remained respectful.

Sonnick stood up, carefully tidied up his hair and the complicated archbishop's uniform, and after making sure he was dressed appropriately, he took the secret report from the deacon and walked towards the door: "Forget it, I'll go in person. Bar."

After all, this is to...

Meet the old man...

Teleport feeling past.

The scene of the White Bone Hall appeared in front of the three of them.

Asking Frost to go back first, Xiao Zhi put on Frost's realistic look, put on the attire of an administrative officer, and took Greerata to the trade area first.

No way, the Hessian lord can never take it to the trade area!

He doesn't want to see the picture of all the staff in the trade area suspending at all!

Xiao Zhi was about to hand over Greerata to model worker Milton. Milton was now the leader of the government officials. He was very reliable and patient.

There was a knock on Milton's office, and it was Teague who opened the door.

Teague officially changed into the black uniform of Hessian. Compared with the soft and gorgeous Xiyue costumes before, it was a little less eye-catching and gorgeous, and more firm and confident.

Teague couldn't help but smile when he saw Xiao Zhi: "Mr. Seventeen!"

For Teague, Xiao Zhi was the one who changed his life and destiny.

If it weren't for Xiao Zhi, he would have died completely in the previous attack on Duke Sharona. Even without that assassination, he might have only been a liar all his life, and then spent money to squeeze into the political arena of the Dolly Alliance. Be a fringe all your life.

Fortunately, Xiao Zhi taught him how to convert to the undead, and took him to Hesse to learn from Mr. Milton, and step by step, he realized the dream that Teague had never imagined before—becoming an undead. a real official.

Xiao Zhi nodded to him: "Tiger, how are you doing recently?"

"Very well, I've been dealing with various affairs more smoothly lately. You came to Mr. Milton, right? He's meeting with several government officials. Do you need to inform Mr. Milton of your arrival now?" Teague ushered him inside.

Xiao Zhi walked in: "No, let Milton handle his affairs first."

At this time, Teague noticed Greerata, who was covered in blood and death behind Xiao Zhi. As an experienced liar who has seen all kinds of big scenes, the smile on Teague's face has not changed at all: "This is..."

Xiao Zhi said, "He is the purpose of my visit this time. This is Greata, the archbishop who once belonged to Brace."

Hearing this, Teague couldn't hide his surprised expression: "Archbishop Greata?! Was he one of the three archbishops during the Pope Ernestil's time?"

Greerata raised her eyebrows with a little interest in her eyes: "I didn't expect anyone to remember me until now."

Teague said: "I recently studied the history of various countries under the guidance of Mr. Milton, including many unofficial records, and some family histories, especially those related to Brace. Among them are some of your related content, you have been Known as the future of Braith, the man who will lead Braith to the light."

"Hahahahaha..." Greerata laughed, "Leading Blaise to the light... Me? Hahahahahahahaha..."

Rao is Teague, who is well-informed, and still a little confused about this reaction. Why does this Mr. Archbishop seem to be different from the... in the history books.

Xiao Zhi said in a low voice, "Features of the Wraith."

Teague understood in seconds. It turned out to be a racial talent. It seemed that he knew too little about the undead, and he had to work harder. In the future, when studying history, will also add a note. The personalities of historical figures before their death may be very different from those after death, and they cannot be empirical.

At this time, Milton also came out of the reception room and saluted Xiao Zhi: "Mr. Regent."

He looked at Greata again: "Sorry to hear a little of your conversation, Mr. Gretta, I've heard it for a long time."

Gretta still smiled: "Hahaha... me? What other name do I have?"

Milton's tone was calm, and he had seen more crazy undead, but he was not surprised by Greerata's reaction: "I have read your work - "To the Moonlight", this is a beautiful collection of poems, it's a pity It was already banned by Blaise at that time, and I feel sorry for the mainlanders who missed this book."

Gretta's laughter stopped: "To the Moonlight has been a long memory... After all these years, there are still people who remember..."

He has been forgotten by the world after years of cultivation in the Bresse Church, but some people in Hesse who visited Hesse for the first time remember him. Not only can they speak of his obliterated reputation, but also some people have read his poetry collections that have long been drowned in the dust of history. .

The chance of life is really amazing and unbelievable...

Perhaps, coming to Hesse was the most correct decision in his life.

Gretta and Milton got along well, and Teague was delighted to have another knowledgeable teacher.

After arranging Greerata, Xiao Zhi returned to the government affairs center.

Xiao Zhi first sent a message to Senior Brother Bai Yan, saying that he had made a little movement here, so that they need to be more careful when they went to the dungeon of Xisa Church recently, and told them their guesses about the dungeon of customs clearance.

In the following time, Xiao Zhi fell into the planning of Hesse's future again.

Now that Brace has mastered the weapon that uses the Greek ore as the driving force, and it can be mass-produced, although I don't know exactly where it has developed, even if Hesse wants to catch up from now on, I'm afraid it's too late.

In addition, the current Pope of Brees is dying, and Sonnick, who belongs to the main war faction in the future, will take over the position, and the situation facing Hesse will probably not be optimistic.

How to quickly strengthen the Hessian power?

For Hesse, it is very difficult to increase the strength by expanding the number of people. After all, the undead are transformed from the living. If the people on the mainland are not killed in large numbers, the number of Hesse will not increase rapidly, and it will not start a war to expand the number of the undead, right?

In this way, they may have been beaten by the countries of the Continent before Brees attacked Hesse.

The most practical method at present is to update the equipment of the undead.

After Milton's investigation during this period of time, it was found that many undead in Hesse were still using the equipment before their death. Some armors have been buried in the ground for hundreds of years, and their defensive power is almost negligible, which can only be described as crisp.

It just so happened that the trade area was open, and there was cooperation with the Dolly Alliance, so there was no shortage of materials and craftsmen.

Xiao Zhi still arranged a plan to study Yixi Mine, and considered that he might be able to introduce the power of players, but this is a long-term plan, and it will not be used in a short time, but it is always necessary to start first.

Then there is the development of tactics and combat skills.

These were handed over to the knight commanders who were usually addicted to fishing. Some reclusive undead strong Xiao Zhi also asked Frost to issue a summon order to let them come out for activities.

The undead are very happy about this. The days when they can fight and kill every day are too happy for them.

One day, when Xiao Zhi was inspecting the training area, he heard a conversation between two undead.

"It's been really interesting these days. I feel like I've regained the blood I had when I was alive!"

"Yeah, fighting feels great, I feel like I'm getting stronger again!"

"Actually, I was quite lazy when I was alive. I knew how to read and gossip in bed all day long."

"Hahaha, me too, I eat all day and get fatter and fatter."

"It's better to be dead!"

"Yeah, I've died a hundred times, and all my living problems have been cured!"

"Let's go, let's fight, I'm going to screw your head off today!"

"I'm afraid of you, you were only cut in half by me yesterday!!"

"Hahahahaha-"

Saying that, the two undead left side by side, their actions were very friendly, but they were greeting each other's death status today, as if there was some deep hatred.

Xiao Zhi: "..."

Well, it's very Hessian, look how happy they are laughing.

In this way, while building Hesse, Xiao Zhi absorbed the exclusive experience package of the Regent Officer. He probably dealt with major events recently, and the experience gave him a lot of experience, and he went all the way to 240.

Xiao Zhi was content with seeing his level, and it felt so good to hang up.

Probably among all zero players, he is the only one who can level up so easily.

Xiao Zhi put down the documents in his hand, the recent busyness has temporarily come to an end, and the arrangement of various affairs is gradually on the right track, he can take a breather.

"It's a pity Asen isn't here..." Xiao Zhi said to himself, looking at the dark forest outside the window.

Frost has not been in Hesse these past few days, and he doesn't know where he has gone, not even Alifa. Frost is still mysterious, not telling him what he is doing.

After knowing each other for so long, Frost doesn't seem to have played this kind of trick, which makes Xiao Zhi feel a little curious, and can't help but look forward to it as time goes by.

Just in time for some free time, Xiao Zhi suddenly wanted to go back to the big white tree that the two of them first met to take a look.

It seems that haven't been there for a long time.

The location of the big tree is quite remote, and the traffic network does not cover it. It took a while for Xiao Zhi to stand under the tree.

Compared to the first time saw it, the tree was much taller, with many more branches on it, with lush white leaves growing on each branch, and the canopy became wider and larger as a whole. Clouds in the forest.

Recalling the bits and pieces that happened under the tree, the corners of Xiao Zhi's mouth could not help but bend slightly.

He canceled the effect of the soul crystal of the dead, stepped forward, and sat in the position under the tree where he often sat. While thinking about the past, he subconsciously pulled a black blade of grass in his hand and played with it.

The blades of grass here are just flexible enough for weaving. As long as he sits here, Xiao Zhi can't help but harm them. If these grasses had thoughts, they probably wouldn't miss this grass-fighting madman at all.

The breeze blew through the big tree, slightly brushing Xiao Zhi's hair and clothes, and the white leaves fell with the wind, like a special snowfall, lightly touching his shoulder, and then slowly sliding to the ground, bringing the original The deep earth was stained with snow white.

Before he knew it, a delicate and vivid little snake gradually appeared beside Xiao Zhi, then the second, the third...

Until the seventh little snake settled firmly on the grass.

"Xiao Qi." A familiar voice suddenly came from not far away.

Xiao Zhi looked up and saw Frost standing in front of him. He was wearing black light armor, and the lighter body armor outlined Frost's slender legs. The silver hair was loose and fluttered slightly in the breeze. Accompanied by the leaves falling from time to time in front of him, the picture almost made Xiao Zhi think this was the case. It is a memory that has been beautified in his mind.

Xiao Zhi smiled at Frost: "Assen, are you back?"

Frost nodded, walked towards Xiao Zhi slowly, and sat down beside Xiao Zhi familiarly, just like many times before.

After sitting down, Frost took out a crystal the size of a palm. A purple flame was sealed in the crystal. The flame was crystal clear, like a handicraft made of colored glass.

"For you." Frost handed the crystal to Xiao Zhi.

His tone was calm, the same as every time before.

Xiao Zhi recognized the flame inside: "This is... the fire of Inahili that Da Zhuang Zhuang said?"

Xiao Zhi's gaze moved from the crystal to Frost's eyes, his eyes were as gentle as before, as if he was still that ignorant young man who took a stone as a gift to Xiao Zhi.

But Xiao Zhi knows that the fire of Inahili, which is the final upgrade material for the Soul Chaser, is so easy to obtain. Xiao Zhi took the time to rummage through the information on the whole continent, and there are definite relevant records. It is already 300 years ago. .

Probably Frost had been busy with this matter for the past few days when he disappeared with Alpha.

Although Xiao Zhi did not see any scars on his body, out of his understanding of him, Xiao Zhi was sure that even if Frost was injured, he would not appear in front of Xiao Zhi until the wound was completely invisible.

However, Frost did not mention the hardships of the process at all, and did not mean to add value to this gift with his own efforts.

"Thank you." Xiao Zhi accepted it with a smile, and didn't say anything extra, because there was no need for such a courtesy between them.

After accepting the fire of Inahili, Xiao Zhi turned around and took a small snake and handed it to Frost, with a sly smile on his face: "My return gift."

It sounded like they were taking advantage, but both knew it was just a joke.

Watching Frost take the snake, Xiao Zhi said, "It's been a long time since I made it up, I feel a little handicapped."

Frost had a smile on the corner of his mouth: "No, it's still pretty."

His eyes swept over inadvertently, and then found more snakes on the ground. Frost gestured with his eyes: "It's all mine."

Xiao Zhi held up the little snake on the ground with both hands and handed it all to Frost: "Okay, it's all yours."

Frost took the little snakes and carefully examined them one by one, looking serious and focused, as if he was studying some jewelry.

Suddenly, Frost said, "Xiao Qi, I want to see you."

Xiao Zhi was a little puzzled: "See me?"

Isn't he sitting here?

Frost turned his face, reached out and tapped his cheek.

Xiao Zhi instantly understood that he still used the face he used in the game. When Hessen was in action, he basically remembered this face when he knew what he looked like, so he didn't change it on purpose.

Under Frost's gaze, Xiao Zhi changed back to his own face.

Frost looked at the person in front of him, and for a while, time seemed to return to a long, long time ago. In the remote Hesse, there is an unknown corner. In the corner grows a strange white tree. Under the tree are two trees. someone who always sits together.

It seems that nothing has changed...

Xiao Zhi saw Frost staring at him fixedly, as if looking at him, and seemed to see many, many memories through him.

Xiao Zhi was about to say something, but when he saw Frost's brows suddenly wrinkled, Xiao Zhi couldn't help but get nervous: "Assen? What's wrong?"

In the next moment, Frost bent down and put his head directly on Xiao Zhi's shoulder, accompanied by the cold and woody fragrance that was unique to him, a low voice sounded in Xiao Zhi's ears: "Headache..."

Xiao Zhi hurriedly stretched out his hand and supported him: "Is it serious?"

Frost didn't say a word, but reached out and hugged Xiao Zhi back, wrapping him in his arms, with a posture of not letting go, so he leaned on Xiao Zhi's body aboveboard.

Feeling the warm body in his arms, with the temperature unique to Xiao Qi, Frost couldn't help raising the corners of his mouth, and suddenly felt that the headaches that always disturbed him were no longer difficult at all.

He increased his strength a little, and with this gesture, he threw Xiao Zhi onto the grass full of fallen leaves.

Xiao Zhi was a little uncomfortable with this posture, and felt that the roots of his ears were starting to turn red. He subconsciously wanted to move, but he heard Frost's voice ringing in his ears. Imperceptible coquettish means: "Don't move, I have a headache..."

Xiao Zhi suddenly stopped: "..."

I really can't take this guy.

Is it a real headache or a fake one...

Forget it, it doesn't matter.

In his current position, he gently reached out and stroked Frost's back with a soft, soothing touch.

The breeze continued, and the white leaves were still falling slowly, but this time the figures under the tree were grouped together.
