Lolo's expression remained unchanged as she swung her sword a second time. At this moment, Matata displayed the heroic bearing of a researcher as he stood rooted to the ground and stared blankly at Lolo's sword descending upon his head.
In the nick of time, it was Luo Bu who blocked the girl's attack.
The good news was that although Lolo's temperament had changed drastically, her strength did not increase. Your Honor, the future Supreme Wizard, could sense that the attack was still powered by her own strength. The bad news was that her strength was close to that of a Grade 3 Swordsman.
Rob, who had lost his magic, was only a Grade 1 Swordsman. Matata, on the other hand, was in a state of limitless cooldown and couldn't be counted on.
In the next moment, the future Supreme Wizard, Your Honor's inner thigh was struck so hard that Rob nearly bit his tongue off. Lolo's flurry of attacks had only just begun. In less than ten seconds, the future Supreme Wizard, Your Honor, had suffered two knee attacks, three elbow attacks, and a shoulder throw. The latter successfully dislocated his shoulder.
He didn't even notice the intense pain in his stomach.
In such a narrow space, Rob had to protect Matata, who was behind him, so he couldn't display his superior agility. It was equivalent to taking a combo from a Grade 3 Swordsman head-on. Being able to last for ten seconds was already an impressive feat.
After dealing with the threat in front of her, Lolo's expression remained unchanged. She raised Starfall and walked toward her target expressionlessly.
There was no longer any obstacle between her and Matata, so the latter decisively activated his ultimate skill and screamed like the main character in horror movies.
Rob smiled bitterly. He had been too careless this time. To think that he would fail at the last moment. Was he destined to come here for nothing?
However, in the next moment, his vision blurred, and he saw a figure rush into the storeroom. The figure's palm was like a knife, and it accurately cut the back of Luo Luo's neck at lightning speed. The girl's body swayed, and a look of indignation flashed in her eyes. However, she could not resist gravity in the end, and she fell straight down.
Then, the person pulled Matata into her arms and lovingly caressed his cheeks.
How is that possible?! Your Honor, the future Supreme Wizard, was dumbfounded. He didn't expect a hidden expert to be hiding in a certain someone's harem. However, when he thought about it, since he had already activated the title of Casanova, it was only natural for him to collect a girl with a violent attribute.
Matata patted his girlfriend's back to express his gratitude. At the same time, he asked her to keep an eye on Luo Luo to prevent the latter from suddenly going berserk again. Luo Bu also stood up from the ground, and the two of them gathered in front of the girl again. However, the device had already been destroyed.
Matata scratched his head and gestured for Rob to wait for a while. Then, he went to find something that looked like tape and wrapped the two halves of the instrument back together.
Your Honor, the future Supreme Wizard, raised his eyebrows and complained helplessly. Isn't this … a little too careless?
However, the miraculous thing was that the instrument was actually reassembled by this self-deceiving method and could still be used. Matata spent about five minutes to complete the inspection. After that, he fell into deep thought and furrowed his brows as if he had encountered a difficult problem.
Rob did not rush him. Instead, he waited patiently. Since Matata did not shake his head, it meant that he had discovered something. The first thing that that thing did when it opened its eyes was to destroy the instrument. This also proved that it did not want to be inspected.
Matata's four eyes were in a daze. His eyeballs were spinning rapidly in their sockets. He was in a state of rapid thinking.
Another ten minutes passed before Matata spoke. Once again, he and Rob began to converse in those strange syllables.
… …
When Lolo opened her eyes, she realized that she had returned to the underground city.
Rob was boiling water by the side. Bevenadette was sitting on a tree branch and gazing at the moonlight. She ignored the two of them and was obviously still blaming them for using her as a magic crystal.
"How long have I been asleep?"
"Not long, only half a day."
"What happened in the last world?" the girl asked eagerly the moment she woke up.
"Let me start from the beginning. The four-eyed 'Man' civilization was separated from the humans by about 80,000 years. Their civilization was once highly developed. "
"Hmm, this can be seen from the ruins of the underground city." Lolo said. Be it the 200-meter-tall mithril city wall, the artificial stars in the sky, or the independent ecosystem, they were not things that humans could create.
However, she heard someone say, "No, these underground cities were their last refuge. After returning to the underground cities, due to the extreme lack of resources, their civilization regressed greatly. Many powerful weapons and inventions were reduced to scrap metal after losing their power source. Moreover, they suffered great losses during the migration. They were probably less than one-tenth of what they were at their peak."
Lolo took a deep breath. In that world, she had seen the technological level of the four-eyed 'Man' with her own eyes. If this was only one-tenth of what they were at their peak, then what was it like at their peak? And it was such a powerful race that eventually went extinct.
"Refuge?" The girl caught the main point of someone's words.
"Yes, these underground cities scattered all over the world were actually the refuge of the four-eyed 'Man' civilization. They were built at the beginning of the war, and after they lost the mainland, they retreated here."
White steam rose from the kettle. The future Supreme Magus Your Honor took out two metal boxes and poured the boiling water into them.
"The war you are talking about … Are you referring to the war between them and the gods?"
The future Supreme Magus Your Honor nodded. "Back then, there were many races on the mainland, but the four-eyed 'Man' used the power of occult magic to conquer the entire continent and became the undisputed overlord. They were extremely obsessed with technology, and after they unified the entire race, their civilization entered a period of rapid development. However, the good times did not last long. Soon, they reached the end of the path of occult magic. After that, their civilization fell into a period of stagnation. As time passed, they gradually came up with a crazy plan."
"What plan?"
"Deicide." Rob said calmly. "Do you know why the Endless Forest's geographical environment is so strange? The crazy growth of the plants, the abundance of magical elements, and the disorientation."
