Poor Xi Xi

Chapter 557 Lan Qi Believes the End of Magic is Physics

On the snowfields of the Northern Continent, known as the Land of Eternal Night, a bizarre spectacle was unfolding at midnight.

This place was usually immersed in a long, dark night, with stars twinkling and moonlight filtering down, casting shadows across the snow-covered land with only a silvery glow.

Suddenly, the edges of the snowflakes dancing in the air began to shimmer, as if countless golden stars were descending upon the earth.

The light gradually brightened, not a cold silver but a warm golden yellow.

These points of light slowly spread and diffused, gathering into a dazzling sea of light.

The snowfield awakened in this golden and silver light, re-illuminated, transforming into a dreamlike world where the sun and moon shone together.

Watching the struggling vampire earl in the distance, Lanqi confirmed that Sigrid had closed her eyes tightly, and he removed his hand from her eyes.

He had anticipated encountering vampires in the Land of Eternal Night, so he had prepared sunglasses before setting out, and even bought an extra pair along the way.

He took the spare sunglasses from his pocket and carefully put them on Sigrid.

"Sigrid, you can slowly open your eyes now."

Lanqi reminded her.

"..."

Although Sigrid felt that it might be very dazzling in a moment, she still opened her eyes upon hearing Lanqi's words.

The next second.

All she saw was...

Golden and silver light intertwined, reflecting off the snowflakes, each flake like a small, illuminated lantern.

She reached out in surprise to touch the snowflakes.

The light gradually spread, and the sky began to undergo a strange and beautiful transformation.

The deep blue of the night sky gradually faded, replaced by a gentle orange-yellow hue, like the dawn of day.

To Sigrid's disbelief, in this Land of Eternal Night, the sun and moon were shining simultaneously in the sky.

"How is it?"

Lanqi lightly snapped his fingers and opened his left hand, allowing her to admire the snow scene.

"I couldn't prepare a birthday present for you, so I can only perform a magic trick for you on the spot."

Lanqi smiled smugly.

"..."

Sigrid's lips parted slightly as she looked around at this illusory world. She had never seen such a sight before.

Not even in her dreams.

Each snowflake sparkled with both gold and silver light, as if enchanted.

The shadows of the mountains and trees on the snowfield became soft and mysterious under this strange light, their outlines clearly defined by the light.

"Thank you, Loki."

Sigrid murmured.

Lanqi nodded.

But they still had one thing to do at the moment.

"Now you should be able to beat him, right?"

Lanqi pointed to the vampire earl who had finally gotten to his feet in the distance.

Under the washing of light, Earl Gregory's cloak was plated with silver-white color, and his already pale skin became as thin as paper, revealing the color of blood vessels, as if it would break with a gentle touch.

The vampire earl during the day was weakened to only one-tenth of his power, and now he was even more exposed to the sun, enduring indescribable pain.

Even the fifth-tier Shen Touta could abuse the warrior-type Earl Palocas in the sunlit Glass Sanctuary.

Now, this scout-type Earl Gregory should not be Sigrid's opponent.

"Yeah."

Sigrid came back to her senses from the snow scene, her eyes sharpened a bit as she stared at her enemy.

Even a vampire earl during the day, she could defeat!

Sigrid strode through the snow.

Each step was like a hammer hitting Earl Gregory's heart.

He wanted to judge the enemy's position, but at this time he seemed to have lost his sense of direction.

Then, Sigrid's fist, carrying violent power, slammed towards Earl Gregory, almost tearing the air apart.

At the moment the fist landed, Earl Gregory's eyes were still painfully unable to open, his combat experience allowing him to do his best to bend down, protecting his heart and head.

With a bang!

Sigrid's fist hit Gregory's lower back, bursting out with a loud noise like a metal collision.

Earl Gregory stubbornly endured this punch with his seventh-tier physique, but his body was like a small boat shaking in a tsunami, staggering forward, and then being smashed by her iron fist again.

"Ahhh!"

Earl Gregory roared in disbelief.

The proud wolf clan, who believed in the Moon Goddess, rarely did things that were not in line with martial ethics.

He didn't expect that this little guy was actually a despicable kidney striker!

Only targeting his kidneys.

Shamelessly bullying him now that he had lost his sight!

Sigrid's light footsteps crossed the snow, the approaching sound bringing pressure like a dark tide, causing Earl Gregory to be vigilant in the disorientation of not being able to open his eyes.

And in the distant place he couldn't see at all.

The Great Poet stood like a ghost, the violin in her hand flashing with cold light.

Lanqi had the Cat Boss, and there were plenty of card slots. It wasn't difficult to bring the Great Poet a low-level instrument equipment card that she liked.

"Let's have a 'Hymn to the Moon Goddess',"

Lanqi thought for a while and instructed the Great Poet.

"Then when you go to the Demon Realm, you have to take me to have fun."

The Great Poet in a red dress stood quietly in the light, her long gray hair falling like a waterfall, closing her eyes and whispering.

She gently held a well-made magic violin on her left shoulder, her fingers gently sliding on the neck, finding the right position.

"No problem."

Lanqi nodded.

Anyway, the Great Poet will definitely be needed in the Demon Realm.

Usually, in addition to studying magical engineering, the Great Poet herself is very musically talented. It is almost a matter of course for her to look at sheet music and learn instruments.

However, he didn't know why, but she seemed to look down on musical instruments and always wanted to transform them into magic devices.

"Oh, Moon Goddess..."

The Great Poet's face revealed an unhurried temperament, her red lips parted slightly, and time seemed to slow down and become elegant in front of her.

"Charming goddess who roams in the night..."

Her right hand elegantly held the bow and began to draw the strings.

"In your name, reveal your heart..."

As the notes sounded, the Great Poet's voice intertwined with the both melodious and deep sound of the piano, spreading across the snowfield.

"Birds chirping at midnight, bathed in your grace, passion will soar into the sky..."

"Under the protection of the soft moonlight, we will make your songs immortal..."

"Comfort, protection, hope and love, the world we share, relies on prayer and is with you..."

Under the influence of the Great Poet's magic sound, Sigrid became particularly excited, her fist power continued to increase, making a hearty and wild roar, and constantly beating Earl Gregory so that blood splattered on his body.

And Earl Gregory's anger could not be contained.

"Ahhhhh!"

Earl Gregory knew that he was now in a disadvantageous position, but he still wanted to tear the other party apart!

"Sigrid, I'll teach you a set of boxing techniques. How much you can learn depends on your understanding."

Lanqi felt that Earl Gregory had already experienced the joy of battle, so he had to respond to the earl with greater force.

Lanqi stood behind Sigrid and gave instructions, patiently teaching her the Lanquan style combat skills.

After a long period of teaching and research, Lanqi understood one thing.

The end of magic is boxing.

Ordinary attacks are really too strong.

Sigrid listened to Lanqi's verbal guidance while fighting.

"Understood."

For some reason, she just listened to it roughly and felt that she had learned it. Not only did she understand it thoroughly, but she could also infer other things from one instance.

Sigrid advanced the moment she dodged Earl Gregory's claws and pounced, a thrusting punch hitting Earl Gregory's neck with his knuckles!

"I've always thought you were noisy."

Sigrid shook her wrist expressionlessly.
