Chapter 565 Testing


    grass!


    Li Si resisted the urge to jump up, take out his staff and use the fireball technique to bombard him, and forced himself to calm down and sit around the bar.


    To be honest, he wasn''t afraid of the undead.


    In the eyes of ordinary people, they may be extremely dangerous extraordinary creatures, but they have no deterrent effect on Li Si.


    Even if a high-level undead such as a lich or a death knight appears in front of him, as long as it is not a legendary level existence, Li Si will still have no problem winning it.


    But while he was having a good chat with the shop owner named Old Milo, he suddenly discovered that the other person was an undead creature. The impact of this sense of gap made Li Si surprised.


    wrong!


    Li Si suddenly discovered a problem.


    How could it be possible? The distance between the shop owner and him was only about one meter at most, but why didn''t he even feel the breath of the undead creature?


    The old man in front of him definitely couldn''t be a legendary undead, otherwise he wouldn''t have exposed such a flaw in front of Li Si.


    So this is the reality covered up by the illusion in this small town called Ihailes?


    Because of the influence of the legendary level illusion, why did he not feel the breath of the undead?


    Li Si thought in his mind and looked at the old man in front of him without changing his expression.


    Old Milo didn''t seem to care. He bent down to pick up the arm that fell on the ground and pressed it on the wound on his shoulder.


    After a while, Old Milo let go of his hand, moved his arms again, and said to Li Si with emotion:


    "I''m really dissatisfied and can''t stand it anymore. It''s just a little bump and a bump."


    The emotional tone in his words seemed as if this was a normal thing.


    "Old Milo, you are old and you should really pay attention."


    Li Si nodded and agreed.


    In this case, old Milo knew that he had become an undead, so he said this?


    Or was it because the illusion had changed your common sense, thinking that this was a very common thing, so you didn''t pay attention to it?


    Li Si tasted the golden wine in the glass and looked at the guests around him carefully.


    The guests sitting around the tables in the tavern hall were noisy and noisy. It seemed that no one was different. They should not be able to see what was happening at the bar.


    But there were three or four guests sitting at the bar next to Li Si. One of them was just chatting with old Milo. He was sitting very close and should have seen what happened just now.


    But even so, the guest didn''t respond. While drinking ale, he was chatting loudly with the guest next to him, seeming to be arguing about something.


    Judging from their clothes, they should all be residents of Ihailes City.


    So, did this illusion really change the common sense of everyone in the city?


    Everyone else in the city of Ihailes has turned into the undead, but they are completely unaware of it?


    Is it that exaggerated?


    Li Si was a little frightened.


    This kind of skill cannot be accomplished by ordinary legendary level necromancers!


    Moreover, there is this illusion that changes common sense. It covers such a wide range that it is beyond the reach of ordinary legendary professionals.


    Was it the city lord of Ihailes who did it?


    Li Si was a little unsure, sitting aside and watching Old Milo reply to his arm.


    When old Milo''s arm returned to normal, Li Si smiled and said to him:


    "As you get older, you need to be more careful."


    "By the way, I heard that the city lord will show up to preside over the ceremony on the night of Al-Adha, right?"


    "right."


    Old Milo nodded and said like a normal person:


    "Such an important matter must be personally presided over by the City Lord."


    "I still don''t know what to call the Lord of the City."


    "Since he can become the city lord of Ihailes, he must be a powerful professional, right?"


    "That''s for sure!"


    Old Milo nodded and said affirmatively:


    "This city is named after the Lord of the City. Lord Ihailes is a well-deserved strong man and has protected this city for many years."


    "I have grown up listening to the stories of Lord Ihailes. For so many years, because of Lord Ihailes'' presence, no one has dared to offend this city."


    "Has the Lord of the City protected this city for so long? Then this one should be a legendary strongman, right?"


    Li Si''s face showed just the right amount of surprise.


    "Of course!"


    Old Milo said affirmatively, with a somewhat proud tone.


    "Lord Ihailes is a powerful legendary mage. No one dares to challenge the city he protects."


    "Legendary mage~"


    Li Si felt a little emotional, picked up the wine glass and clinked it with Old Milo.


    "A toast to Lord Ihailes!"


    "To Lord Ihailes!"


    With a smile on his face, Old Milo drank the wine in his hand with Li Si.


    "I am also a mage. It would be great if I could get guidance from Lord Ihailes."


    “I wonder what Lord Ihailes is best at?”


    Li Si smiled and said to Old Milo, meaning something.


    "That''s probably difficult."


    Old Milo shook his head.


    "Except for the celebration of the Al-Adha festival, the city lord has been staying in the mage tower in the center of the city and basically never comes out."


    "It''s something everyone in town knows."


    "Some people have come to Ihailes before, hoping to get guidance from the Lord of the City, but I haven''t heard of anyone who succeeded in the end."


    "Li Si, don''t expect this, just enjoy the Eid al-Adha!"


    "That''s it, I understand."


    Li Si nodded slightly, with just the right hint of regret and disappointment on his face.


    "Don''t think about this. How about another glass of wine?"


    "Of course, but this time I''ll have two drinks, and old Milo, too."


    Li Si smiled and invited Old Milo.


    "Haha, that''s a good feeling."


    Old Milo was also happy, and the mixing glass in his hand began to shake dexterously again.


    When his face turned slightly red, Li Si said goodbye to old Milo, got up and returned to the room.


    Taiya had collapsed on the bed at this moment, eating the good food prepared by Li Si in small bites, her eyes drifting in Li Si''s direction from time to time.


    Li Si doesn’t seem to be able to drink well.


    Do you want to prepare some specially in the future?


    While Taiya''s mind was wandering, Li Si was thinking about the problem he had just discovered.


    With Li Si''s strong physique, the drinks just now had no effect on him, and the drunkenness he showed was more of a disguise. The harvest this time was far more than he had expected.


    The biggest discovery is undoubtedly the truth that may be hidden in the legendary illusion in this small city of Ihailes.


    Undead!


    Li Si did not expect undead creatures to appear in this small town in the secret realm, and he had not noticed any undead aura before this.


    So the residents of this small town of Ihailes may have become undead?


    This is really possible!


    Li Si remembered that he had noticed that the residents of Ihailes were generally pale, but he did not detect the aura of the undead at that time, so he did not connect this with the undead.


    Now it seems that it is very likely that the residents have basically become undead. Even with the cover of the illusion, there is still a trace of abnormality.


    but


    Isn''t this a bit too abnormal?


    For example, the old Milo just now didn''t look like an undead at all from his appearance.


    Especially the skillful bartending technique, there is nothing obscure and stiff at all, and it is no different from ordinary people.


    If old Milo''s arm had not been broken due to an accident, Li Si would not have discovered that this enthusiastic old man had become an undead.


    If Ihales is a city of the undead, in order to conceal this truth, in addition to the arranged illusion, there will be an "expensive" city entry tax that is outrageous but will not attract much attention.


    Try to prevent outsiders from entering the city as much as possible.


    Even if a few people enter the city, it will be difficult to discover the identities of the undead residents in the city.


    First of all, although the residents in the city are undead, they still need to eat and sleep like normal people, so there is nothing unusual about their actions.


    Li Si has checked the food and drinks provided by this hotel, and there is nothing unusual about them.


    Therefore, travelers who come to Ihailes may not find anything even if they spend several days with a group of undead.


    So, no one has ever discovered the secret of this small town?


    However, Li Si still couldn''t figure it out.


    Why did Ihailes maintain this small city?


    To maintain such a large number of undead residents and maintain this legendary fantasy world, one can imagine how much it costs.


    So what is the purpose of this Ihailes?


    In the mission introduction, this small town is forever stagnant in time because of Ihailes'' persistence.


    If the "dead city" mentioned in the mission refers to this small town that has become a city of the undead, what does the "new change" refer to?


    Li Si looked through the mission introduction, and his eyes suddenly caught sight of the mission reward prompt.


    Mission reward: Depends on the completion of the mission (Tip: After completing this mission, there is a small probability of getting the legendary item [Love Beyond Life and Death]!)


    (Ihailes: What if I have everything without you?)


    Li Si suddenly realized something, and his teeth became sore.


    Especially regarding this legendary item [Love Beyond Life and Death], the subsequent effect introduction made Li Si''s premonition even more real.


    This is a method that every player strategy master will master. He can obtain useful information from a brief mission introduction and promote the completion of the mission.


    But this is a legendary strongman?


    Li Si couldn''t imagine what an unforgettable experience it was that would make him make such a choice, or even "create" such a city of the undead.


    Although it feels like some clues have been grasped, these are not the only difficulties facing Li Si.


    The Al-Adha celebration will be the night after tomorrow.


    There are still two days left, you can''t do nothing during this time and just waste it all here, right?


    Li Si thought for a moment, looked out the window at the darkening night, and prepared to go out and explore the city.


    Just like the place where Ihailes is located in the middle of the small town.


    According to Old Milo, the master of this city, Ihailes, has been staying in the mage tower in the center of the city.


    However, when Li Si was wandering around the city before, he also passed by there and did not see any mage tower.


    Is this mage tower located underground?


    Li Si felt that this might be helpful in unlocking the secrets of this illusion.


    Wait for a while in the room until the night has darkened.


    Li Si let Taya continue to stay in the room to rest, and left the room despite Taya''s somewhat dissatisfied look.


    Using the power of shadow to enter the stealth state, Li Si walked downstairs.


    At this time, the tavern on the first floor of the hotel was no longer as noisy as before. The guests had left after leaving, leaving the table with messy cups and plates waiting to be cleaned. Old Milo, who was originally staying behind the bar of the tavern, also disappeared.


    The waiters in the hotel were all busy on the first floor, cleaning up the leftovers on the table and the wine spilled on the table and the floor.


    Li Si noticed that the blond girl Juou from before was also cleaning diligently in the hall.


    Even simple and plain clothes could not hide the beauty of this blond girl. Li Si looked at her for a moment and slowly approached her.


    Although her previous speculations were very likely, they were just speculations after all.


    This time when he went out to explore, Li Si planned to test his guess.


    First, we need to test whether everyone is an undead creature like old Milo.


    When Li Si saw Juou, he had a new idea in his mind.


    In his opinion, the girl Juou should be quite special, and is likely to be related to the legendary mage Ihailes.


    In this case, is she also an undead?


    Li Si approached Juou, wanting to experiment in secret.


    He is now in a state of shadow stealth, which cannot be discovered by ordinary people.


    Because of the existence of the illusion, Li Si could not detect whether the other party was undead from the external aura.


    Still have to start experimenting.


    If the girl in front of her was really an undead creature, she wouldn''t be able to observe Li Si in the stealth state. Even if Li Si secretly cuts off her arm, the other party might not notice anything unusual.


    Just like the old Milo before.


    If the opponent is not an undead creature, but a living person, Li Si can also detect it. Even if there is an accident and the girl''s hand is really cut off, Li Si has the ability to help her fully recover.


    Just when Li Si came to Juou''s side, he was about to take action.


    Suddenly, an extremely terrifying pressure fell directly on Li Si''s shoulders!


    Even though he was mentally prepared, Li Si almost didn''t react, and his body bent slightly under the huge pressure.


    legend!


    Sure enough there is a problem!


    Li Si felt that the pressure on his body was still increasing, and he did not dare to stay any longer, so he hurriedly left by shadow jumping.


    Juou, who was on the edge of the fight, didn''t feel anything and was still working hard to clean the stains left on the table.


    Li Si''s figure emerged from the shadows and appeared on the street in front of the hotel.


    Taking a deep breath, Li Si raised his head and carefully observed the surrounding situation.


    After waiting for a moment, the expected legendary powerhouse did not show up.


    Strange?


    Li Si touched his chin, somewhat confused about the situation.


    Was that the aura of a legendary strongman just now?


    Why is there no movement?


    Are all the previous speculations true?


    Ihailes has really been paying attention to that blond girl Juou?
