Chapter 161 I still have to work overtime? !
Fang Wuwei and Ikeuchi Maki looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.
Obviously, Ikeuchi Haruhiko did not tell Ikeuchi Maki about this.
Fang Wuwei no longer looked indifferent. He sat up straight on the spot, put his hands in front of him, and began to take the matter seriously.
Another magical family, and a more powerful magical family than the Chi Nei family, this would naturally arouse Fang Wuwei's strong interest.
Ikeuchi Haruhiko was very nervous at the moment. The man in front of him did not look like a member of that family, but he had this badge. He couldn't help but feel a little scared when he told the truth.
He was afraid that if this person was actually a member of that family's influence here, then coming here at this moment would be tantamount to committing suicide.
But... Ikeuchi Dongyan glanced at Fang Wuwei who was sitting upright.
It is only a thief who steals for a thousand days, so how can you be on guard against thieves for a thousand days? The couple's appearance has long been wanted, and once they are found, the family will definitely recognize them.
If that family really came to this world, then instead of staying at home and waiting to die in fear, it would be better to borrow Fang Wuwei's power to resolve this matter.
"Mr. Toumo, I would like to ask, where did you get this thing from?"
Tuo Shou Song Sheng also understood that the information behind this matter was very complicated. He was just a small figure who had just entered the magic world. Even if the couple in front of him claimed to be a down-and-out magic family that was being hunted by others, a lean camel was still bigger than a horse, not to mention Fang Wuwei standing next to him. They were not people he could afford to mess with.
Just tell the truth, there's nothing worth hiding anyway... If he came here to look for his relatives, he would have to make up a story, but since he came here to seek revenge...
Tuo Shou Song Sheng confessed everything truthfully.
After learning that it was picked up from a corpse, Ikeuchi Dongyan nervously asked where the corpse was. When he learned that it had been destroyed by Fang Wuwei, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mr. Ikeuchi, judging from your reaction... could it be that the corpse actually has some secrets?"
Tu Shousongsheng suddenly felt that it was a bit hasty to just hand the corpse over to Fang Wuwei for destruction.
"Yes... Their family is quite insidious. Their secret technique is to fake their death. Once the magic power on their body returns to their body, they will be resurrected... We suffered a lot in this regard back then."
Ikeuchi Haruhiko smiled bitterly and shook his head. Now that they knew that the man was dead, the Ikeuchi couple finally felt relieved. At least...Tomomori Matsuo was still safe.
Fang Wuwei guaranteed this, and they had no choice but to trust.
Tu Shousongsheng's hair stood on end when he heard this... Fortunately, Fang Wuwei burned it, otherwise something bad would have happened sooner or later.
"Mr. Toumori...how long ago was it that you found the body?"
"About... twenty-six years ago..."
Twenty-six years?!
The Ikeuchi couple looked at each other in confusion, then thought of another possibility.
"Mr. Toumori...during these twenty-six years, you have...done a lot of research on this corpse."
"Well, we dissected it many times. We buried it before, and then we did a lot of injection tests, drug tests, and electric current tests..."
No wonder he was treated like this after faking his death for 26 years... I heard that his family still had feelings when they were faking their death? This isn't just a whip zombie... Tsk tsk tsk.
They thought the body had been picked up recently, otherwise they wouldn't be so scared.
But…twenty-six years ago?
The Ikeuchi couple touched their chins. That period of time was exactly the time when they escaped from the other world.
At that time, they had fled from another world with nothing. Almost all members of the Ikeuchi family died, leaving only the two of them, carrying the last hope of the Ikeuchi family, to this world.
The badge issue was resolved, but they still had some questions.
Pointing to the amethyst on the table, Ikeuchi Dongyan asked about the origin of this thing.
Upon learning that these crystals were also closely related to the corpse, and were even said to have been scattered around the corpse, the Ikeuchi couple clenched their hands, then silently loosened them, their eyes filled with sadness.
"......You two, what...is this?"
"...This is a specialty of our Ikenai family."
The shocking statement shocked Tuo Shou Song Sheng. Well, the producer of this important resource that I use to practice magic is here!
"It is because our Ikenai family was able to produce these things that we ended up like this..."
"Huh? What's going on?"
Facing Fang Wuwei's doubts, Ikeuchi Dongyan smiled bitterly and recounted his past glory one by one.
That was his proudest, yet most painful memory.
"Although our Chi Nei family is not strong, it is not too weak. There are many powerful families like ours over there...
But we are different. We have a family secret technique - magic compression. This amethyst is the product of magic compression.
Stable, portable, powerful... It is made of pure compressed magic power, which can transform the illusory magic power into solid crystals, and can also draw out the magic power at any time. This is the greatest pride and confidence of our Chinei family.
Magic crystals can be used as the energy core of various magical devices, and can also induce other magical changes. Their most important use is to directly supply magicians to release magic.
With this thing, our Chi Nei family once prospered, gained many powerful new members, and had the opportunity to enter the upper class and come into contact with higher beings. "
Ikeuchi Haruhiko recalls the past. From that time to this day, he cannot forget the pride and glory he felt.
"Until... that man showed up."
Fang Wuwei became excited. This sounded like a wonderful story. He picked up the teacup and drank while listening. It was so beautiful.
“It is said that he is just a low-level magician recruited by the Brun family… The Brun family and my Ikeuchi family have been friendly for generations and are our long-term partners.
Later I heard that the man somehow married the eldest daughter of the Brun family, and then step by step trampled under his feet the three most powerful magic families at the time, leading the Brun family to become the strongest.
But in reality, the Brun family is only in name and has become a tool of that man... Somehow, the Brun family is still very happy.
That year, my wife Nami and I had just gotten married, and that man actually came out to steal my marriage, saying that he had set his eyes on my wife and that if I handed her over, he would keep our family, or he would die... Do you think he is sick?"
Indeed, I am sick.
Fang Wuwei and Tu Shousongsheng nodded slightly, saying that he couldn't tolerate it either.
“Although we didn’t dare to offend him, because that man already had many wives and concubines, we thought he would just suppress us at most. But I didn’t expect that this would be the beginning of our nightmare.
The man was actually very angry and started a massacre on the spot... We were no match for him and could only flee desperately. After that, the Brun family, who had been friendly with us for generations, actually attacked us.
Naturally we fought desperately, but we never expected that the non-family fighters that our Ikenai family recruited in order to become stronger would actually betray us.
We were hit hard at the time, and countless of our compatriots were captured and killed...
..................
The secret technique of our Chinei family relies on bloodline, which means that people who are not surnamed Chinei cannot utilize that power.
But not long after, the Brun family actually took out their homemade magic crystals, which were almost the same as ours.
The advantage we had gained with great difficulty by relying on the magic crystals was gone, and following that person's call, almost all the magic families came out to encircle and suppress us, and we...were completely defeated."
"So you had no choice but to leave your hometown and come to this world in search of a chance of survival?"
Seeing that Ikeuchi Higashihiko had begun to choke up and Ikeuchi Nami beside him was also crying, Fang Wuwei said what they had not said.
Ikeuchi Higashihiko nodded.
Fang Wuwei didn't know how to comfort her and could only drink tea.
But after hearing this, Tuo Shou Song Sheng felt terrified... Just because he was unhappy, he was so cruel that he had to force a good family to be destroyed?
This person is simply... terrifying to the extreme.
People who are self-centered will die if they disobey. How terrible are such people?
"Mr. Ikeuchi... I dare to ask, who is that person?"
"His name is weird... His name is Ye Tian, and he calls himself the Dragon King."
Fang Wuwei spat out a mouthful of tea.
