Poor Xi Xi

Chapter 85 Lan Qi Returns to the Mortal World

Unbound and ownerless magic cards are still in their sealed state, making it easy to discern their effects through appraisal magic.

"Ranch, before you use this card in the future, give me a look..."

Hyperion felt that Ranch getting this card that could make everyone unhappy meant that teaming up with him would be a torment in the future...

The only thing Hyperion was grateful for was that she had already developed resistance to musical magic.

"Okay."

Ranch nodded, gently reaching out to grab the magic card emitting an orange glow.

However, he frowned slightly as he stared at the card, seeming a bit unhappy.

"What's wrong?"

Hyperion asked疑惑, "Is the effect not good?"

"No, I think the name of this card has too much of a negative influence. When I get back, I have to find a master to help me change its name."

Ranch said with a serious expression.

In his previous life, the country he lived in had strict requirements and a very high level of censorship for bloody and violent game text and illustrations.

Ranch personally actively responded to this call.

"...What are you going to change it to?"

Hyperion felt a sense of foreboding.

"Let's call it 'Wonderful Notes'."

Ranch smiled calmly.

Hyperion: "..."

Originally, this card didn't seem that novice, but Ranch's name change made it just right.

Hyperion didn't know what to say.

She could only look with Ranch at the remaining two purple halos, the magic cards they would each get.

The one in front of Ranch seemed to be a spell card woven from human magic text—

[Transformation: Demon]

[Category: Spell Card]

[Rarity: Purple Rare]

[Tier: 2]

[Effect: After use, can change the race to demon, will not change the true attributes and appearance characteristics, cooldown time 24 hours.]

[Note: The last survivor of the Empire infiltration team completed the ultimate disguise magic based on the forbidden surgery of the Empire's testing grounds.]

And the magic card in front of Hyperion emitted a strong demonic aura—

[Transformation: Human]

[Category: Spell Card]

[Rarity: Purple Rare]

[Tier: 2]

[Effect: After use, can change the race to human, will not change the true attributes and appearance characteristics, cooldown time 24 hours.]

[Note: The Purgatory Corridor Academy deduced the principle of the Empire's testing ground forbidden surgery to develop a reverse disguise magic.]

"Hiss, is this Shadow World subtly mocking me?"

Ranch looked at this [Transformation: Demon] with a strange expression.

Hyperion was nervously stroking the [Transformation: Human], seeming more excited than ever.

For her, this was a card that could truly transform her into a human.

Not just the simple illusion magic she usually maintained in the real world.

Even based on the strength of the [Transformation: Demon] being able to pass the Demon Academy's detection, the corresponding magic card [Transformation: Human] should also possess the ability to directly turn her into a near-complete human, except on a soul level!

"Alright, a great harvest, we can go back and get a good night's sleep."

With the spoils received, the drowsiness from yesterday afternoon in the classroom suddenly swept through Ranch's mind like a wave, at the thought of returning to the Ikryte Academy.

He just wanted to quickly return to the dormitory and sleep until night.

"Yes, rest early, although it's not early anymore."

Hyperion also said with a smile.

Sometimes you might think it's just an ordinary day, but maybe it's actually the best day of your life.

She felt very happy now, the feeling of living like a year had vanished, and she even began to look forward to tomorrow.

At the moment when the two were about to step into the void gate to leave the interdimensional space.

The settlement that was originally thought to be over, had new information emerge again, accompanied by blood-red text.

[Series Shadow World—Blood Moon Corrupted World, has anchored historical coordinates, currently 1/4 completion.]

[Before ending the series Shadow World, the current challenger has a higher probability of entering the "Blood Moon Corrupted World" era Shadow World.]

[Clear with an SSS rating to immediately open the next node.]

[Mission Objective: Clear the final node with an SSS rating.]

"?"

"Blood Moon Corrupted World...?"

The two looked at the suddenly appearing new settlement information and showed confused expressions.

This vast world has many ancient eras.

Hundreds of years ago, thousands of years ago, countless countries were born and perished, and heroes returned to dust, forming history.

With the discontinuity of history thousands of years ago, the records of many earlier eras have disappeared.

One can only obtain fragments through the historical projection of the Shadow World, and historians can infer some of the original historical appearance.

The earliest known human history is about 20,000 years ago, called the "Holy Kingdom Demon Realm," an era of creation, experiencing several holy wars, leaving behind many heroic poems, and the rise of humanity to glory.

Although there are no related Shadow Worlds to prove how the late Holy Kingdom collapsed, in the nearly 20,000 years since the "Holy Kingdom Demon Realm," there has been no Shadow World to corroborate a lost era called "Blood Moon Corrupted World."

"By the way, Hyperion, have you ever seen this kind of series Shadow World?"

Not only had Ranch never heard of series Shadow Worlds in the game content, but he had also never seen relevant information in the books of this world.

"Ancient books have recorded... If you successfully clear the Shadow World and get the highest rating, you may encounter it, but very few people meet this condition. Reaching the final step of the series Shadow World is even more difficult than ascending to the heavens. At least in the past thousand years, no one has successfully completed the series Shadow World mission."

Hyperion didn't expect to encounter this rumored hidden mission objective on her first Shadow World run with Ranch,

"However, compared to personal rewards, the historical intelligence value of this kind of Shadow World is actually more terrifying. For example, humans discovered the Shadow World of the 'Holy Kingdom Demon Realm' era, and found many ways to fight demons from the ultra-ancient holy war..."

The demon race's defeat and subjugation decades ago was inextricably linked to the information analyzed by human scholars from the mid-era Shadow World of the "Holy Kingdom Demon Realm."

"When you get back, if you report this hidden mission information to the Shadow World Management Association or the Magic Tower, they will beg you to fight the Shadow World. The academic value of the Lost Era Shadow World is too immeasurable. But correspondingly, the current vampires in the world will do everything possible to take your life."

Hyperion said.

They had turned off the recording function of the [Shadow World Recording Program] when they came to this interdimensional space.

Because most challengers don't want their potentially trump-card loot magic cards to be recorded.

Although the vampires in the current world are low-key and hidden in the south, they are all great enemies of mankind, and their threat level even far exceeds that of the demon race.

As the strongest individual creatures, vampires possess unreasonable authorities and immortality. In the same tier, humans or demons are definitely not the vampires' opponents in a one-on-one fight. Even if they can win, they will eventually be exhausted to death.

And the ancient Shadow World of this lost era of the "Blood Moon Corrupted World" probably holds the key to dealing with vampires.

"Stop talking, stop talking, I'll just pretend I didn't see this hidden mission."

Ranch waved his hand and walked towards the outside of the interdimensional space. He wouldn't be crazy enough to risk his life with vampires.

"Yes, the vampires haven't provoked us."

Hyperion also nodded and walked with Ranch towards the void gate returning to the real world.

Their opinions were very consistent: this hidden mission must not be reported.

When they were about to step into the flowing void mirror.

"By the way, Ranch, there's one thing I haven't figured out."

Hyperion suddenly stopped and said hesitantly.

"What?"

Ranch turned around and asked.

"In the art classroom, what magic did you use to determine which paintings were painted by the professor and which paintings were painted by the students?"

Hyperion looked at Ranch with a confused expression, seeming to have been searching for the answer all the way.

"..."

Ranch first opened his mouth in slight surprise, then revealed a sly and bright smile,

"Is magic even needed for such a simple thing?"
