Chapter 69 - 69 On the Self-cultivation of an Actor (Please follow and read!)
Lis, of course, knew what he was talking about. In the Gaia World, Cain, as the ancestor of the vampires, is an extremely ancient and mysterious deity with a Divine Domain of "Vampire" and "Dark Night."
Because He rarely shows miracles in front of mortals, His name is also rarely known to outsiders.
Although directly calling the name of a deity might attract their attention, which is why believers pray, this seemed to be the most effective argument Lis could think of to gain Angela’s trust. He hoped that the deity would not pay attention to such a trivial matter.
When Lis saw that Little Bat didn’t respond for a long time and thought the communication had failed, Angela suddenly opened her bright, shiny eyes and said:
"Did the ancestor send you? Really, that’s great!"
Angela fluttered her small wings and flew excitedly around the room.
She had wanted to leave the tomb for quite some time now.
Although the place was suitable for Angela’s growth and had treasures, it was extremely boring.
Ever since Angela advanced to Gold Level and received her ancestral memory, she had been longing for the vast and fascinating world in her memories.
She even approached that Witch Demon, wanting McGwire to help her get out, but that guy never understood human speech, ignored her attempts at communication, and just babbled on.
Angela was saddened, feeling that the whole tomb was filled with fools, and wondered if her intelligence meant she would be trapped here forever.
But to her surprise, she woke up today to a pleasant shock – the ancestor had sent someone to rescue her!
After flying for a while, Angela’s sleepiness vanished completely, and she looked at the person before her with renewed energy.
"You’re really a good person! What is your name? Angela will remember you!"
Lis felt the trustful gaze of the tiny white bat before him and couldn’t help but crack a smile.
Was this the innocence and naivety that the strategy author talked about? The reality proved to be as extraordinary as they described.
No wonder the author said this step was actually the easiest in the whole process.
You’re supposed to be a Gold Level BOSS, right? How come out of the eighteen prepared arguments, I needed to use only the first one, and it’s already a success?
He may have been internally grumbling, but Lis, with his acting skills honed to the highest level, didn’t let his expression change one bit, and he said:
"My name is Lis, a Mage, and I am willing to help Lord Angela leave this place."
Angela hurriedly nodded, now completely convinced Lis could take her out.
If the ancestor said it, how could it be false!
"Good, I’ve had enough of this place, how do we get out?"
Lis turned serious and said:
"To leave this tomb, we must defeat the Witch Demon McAulay!"
"Ah? But Angela can’t beat him, and you look so weak, Lis~"
Little Bat recalled the experience of causing a uproar in the Witch Demon Tower, only to be chased out by McAulay, feeling somewhat timid.
It hurt a lot to be beaten.
Lis quickly added, "Lord Cain has already told me the weakness of that Witch Demon. As long as you, Lord Angela, can hold him off, I can use a special method to defeat him."
Angela was conflicted; the last time she ended up fleeing as a small bat.
Even then, her fur was singed, and it took a long sleep to recover. She was reluctant to confront McGwire again.
But if we don’t go, we’ll truly be trapped here forever!
Thinking it over, Little Bat clenched its teeth and decided, "Let’s do this!"
"Elbow! I’ll take you to dismantle those darn bones."
Angela spoke the fiercest words, tilting its little head up, ready to lead Lis in a fight against McAulay.
Lis quickly stopped Little Bat, saying going straight there would be like offering themselves up on a platter; they needed to prepare first.
He then pulled Angela aside and chattered away, pouring all the information about McAulay’s skills, specialties, and things to watch out for into Little Bat’s head.
After sharing all the information he knew with Angela, Lis even inquired about its skills and specifically tailored several tactics for it.
Little Bat nodded repeatedly as it listened, looking at Lis with eyes filled with admiration.
This person is so incredible; no wonder the ancestor asked him to come and rescue me.
After listening to Lis’s words of caution, Angela flew up from the heart-shaped bed and landed on Lis’s head, pulling at his black hair and asking,
"After we beat McAulay, can we just leave directly?"
"Yes, we should be able to leave directly."
If Lis’s guess was right, after defeating McAulay, he should be able to obtain the secret realm crystal of this instance.
If that wasn’t possible, the magic array for teleportation should also be located inside McAulay’s Witch Demon Tower.
"Then I want to take something with me!"
Upon hearing this, Angela landed back on the heart, pulling hard to take it with it.
Lis knew why Angela was fond of this heart; it was a heart left by a Duke-level vampire, used by McAulay as the core to operate the Ghost Mansion.
This was a heart that had condensed the essence of the vampire’s blood, and Lis had no idea where McAulay obtained this heart that was close to Legendary strength.
It was natural that Angela could benefit a great deal from it, as the heart was a substantial aid in its breakthrough to Gold Level alongside its own talents.
This was also why Angela liked to nap on it.
Seeing Angela struggling to take the heart with it, but unable to budge it whatsoever, regardless of the effort it exerted, Lis shook his head.
This heart was connected to the entire Ghost Mansion through Magic Rune; there was no way it could be forcibly detached.
Lis stepped forward, placed his right hand on the Magic Rune where the heart connected with the platform, and disconnected the connection of the "Solid" and "Rock" Magic Runes.
Angela forcefully pulled the heart out, and due to inertia, it even flew far away.
By the time it returned, flapping its wings and clutching the heart, it exclaimed loudly,
"Lis, you’re so amazing. How did you do that?"
Lis waved his hand nonchalantly, indicating that it wasn’t difficult for someone with some knowledge of Magic Runes, especially since the runes on this platform weren’t complex.
"Shall we set off?"
Lis asked, watching Angela trying to settle down on his head with the blood-red heart. He quickly asked,
"Shall I hold onto it for you first, and give it back to you after we get out?"
Angela thought about it and nodded. It placed the precious vampire heart into Lis’s hand, curiously watching as he stored the heart in the storage ring.
Now more than ever, Angela felt that this man named Lis was incredibly skilled; could it be that the outside world was filled with many formidable people?
Would it be captured and turned into soup after getting out?
The Gold Level Little Bat, whose knowledge of everything stemmed solely from its inherited memories, was feeling a little downcast and somewhat uneasy about the outside world.
