The Dean Has Arrived

"As a magician whose job it is to explore the mysteries of the world, focusing on creating that kind of fantasy story is a bit too much for the last, isn't it?"

In Avellan's hotel, Sophia said to Xi Wei who was stuck in the velvet lounge chair angrily.

"But when the script of the Lotus Lantern first came out, didn't you like Sophia very much? You stayed up all night and watched it several times." The little vampire Shalan, who was lazily lying on the sofa, suddenly said something that Sophia couldn't guard against: "People When the puppet show started, you were also very excited."

"Goo..."

The girl choked on her whole body, sucked her lips a few times, but still couldn't say a word of excuse.

"But then again, Xi Wei, why did you ask me to read the narration?"

At this time, the little vampire curiously asked Xi Wei, who looked like he had nothing to do with himself: "I think it would be better to find a professional from the performing arts troupe?"

"No, the previous performance can be said to be the best result so far." Xi Wei showed an inscrutable smile.

It's not that he's being sloppy, it's the truth.

Although the plot of the Lotus Lantern itself is very good, the reason why it can create a sensational effect is because of Xi Wei's use of a little trick.

Qiu Ke's silk string magic is great, even the old golems can be manipulated freely, let alone the new golems made of expensive materials.

As a great magician, Xi Wei didn't do much, but even if he only refers to the special effects made by some movies on the earth, it has enough visual impact for people in this world.

The reason why Shalan was asked to read the lines was naturally because as a vampire, even her voice had a certain degree of charm, which could attract the attention of the audience to the maximum extent.

Taken out individually, these aspects have a unique effect, not to mention the destructive power when combined...

In short, even when the celebration banquet is held in the restaurant. Xi Wei and the others could still hear the voices talking about the Lotus Lantern from many other tables.

"It's fine if you don't want to say it." Although Sophia was also curious about this, but seeing that Xi Wei didn't intend to explain, she could only mutter angrily in the end, and then she looked at Xi Wei's hand in doubt. That honey-yellow round gemstone: "Besides, is that stone really that interesting? You've been looking at it for a long time. As far as I know, the value of this gemstone is not high."

That gem was also one of the prizes of the acting competition. After seeing it, Xi Wei asked Ryan Cutler for it, and the other party also generously said that it didn't matter if it was given to him—after all, even the script of the Lotus Lantern Xi Wei provided it. Without his help, the Cutler Performing Arts Troupe won't even win the prize. Even being able to compete is a question.

"When we won, you didn't see the expression on Rose's fat face in the background, haha! That was the most relieved time in my life!" Ryan Cutler said to him with a smile at that time, and even expressed that he would It doesn't matter if part of the bonus is given to Xi Wei.

But apart from the gem, Xi Wei still didn't take any money in the end. Only let Qiao Ke take the part that belongs to her.

"This is no ordinary gem."

Xi Wei threw the honey-yellow stone that was a circle larger than a goose egg in his hand, and explained to the two girls in the room: "This is a Sugada amber."

Sukhata amber is a kind of amber, but the reason for its formation is different from that of ordinary amber. It is not a product such as resin, but produced after the digestive juice of an extinct carnivorous plant Sukhata coagulates.

This carnivorous plant was once widely distributed in forests around the world, and it looks a bit like a trumpet bud in Pokemon. However, because they are distant relatives of treants, their rhizome system is very thick. Although it moves slowly, it hunts like a frog. It can devour the target in the blink of an eye and wrap it inside the digestive organs. Digests it into liquid absorption by secreting a viscous liquid similar to resin.

It's just that Sujata are just plants after all, and their digestion capacity is limited, so when the prey they prey on have indigestible parts, they will secrete another substance. Let the digestive juices solidify, wrapping the prey remains into a spherical shape. Then, through a process similar to that of a pea shooter firing a bullet, the solidified digestive juice ball and its own seeds are fired far away...

After the seeds fall to the ground, they will absorb the nutrients in the digestive juice ball and grow back into a new Sugata.

However, there are also many times when the seeds do not germinate due to various reasons, so the digestive juice balls are finally buried by the humus in the forest and gradually deposited in the stratum until they are re-excavated in the form of amber after an unknown number of years.

"It's conservatively estimated that it takes tens of millions of years to form an amber." As a person from another world, Xi Wei, whose focus is obviously different from this world, continued: "The biological remains wrapped in it can let us know about that era. Some characteristics of species on the continent."

"Dozens of millions of years ago?" Sophia looked suspicious: "Even if you count the myths of the last era, the current recorded history will not exceed 10,000 years. Are you exaggerating too much?"

"Xi Wei, what's in your amber?" Compared to Sophia, Shalan was much more receptive and asked enthusiastically.

"A subtle bug."

Xi Wei showed an indescribably complicated expression on his face, and shook Sujada Amber in front of Shalan.

He didn't want the girl to see clearly what was inside.

Although that thing does look a bit like a bug, Xi Wei's wizard hat has already marked the true identity of the creepy-looking creature in Amber that is not as big as a mouse, looks a bit like an arthropod.

Eldrazi Spawn. Betrayal of Evil

Although he didn't know what the Eldrazi were, the series of events that happened before did not prevent Xi Wei from understanding that these things were not beneficial creatures.

However, the appearance of this amber gave Xi Wei a subversive understanding of these creatures—maybe the Eldrazi had already appeared in this world in the ancient times before humans, no, or even all humanoid creatures existed. up.

Of course, if that was the case, Xi Wei would not look at this piece of amber over and over again. There is only one reason why he attaches so much importance to this piece of amber.

The Eldrazi inside the amber was still alive.

Fortunately, although I don't know why, the other party seems to have no ability to come out of it.

Putting the amber into the silver storage box, Xi Wei rubbed his face and changed his mood: "Girls, do you want to do some exercise after dinner?"

Both girls looked at him suspiciously.

Xi Wei pointed out the window: "Our friends in the performing arts troupe seem to have encountered a little problem, let's help."
