Chapter 285 - Game and Dream (2/2)

“We’re falling back. Our brothers and sisters who have monopolized our mother’s love are driving us away from our mother with their fine weapons. That’s unfair. Why are they so beautiful and smart? Our mother didn’t treat us fairly.”

It was everything on the painting, without any context.

Roland, however, found that Kennedy was shaking.

The man blushed and then laughed so hard that his laughter echoed throughout the building.

“My speculation is true! The trolls and the elves are of the same origin. They’re both the children of the World Tree. This is the evidence!

“This is the evidence!”

While laughing, Kennedy shouted and danced as if n.o.body were around.

Roland shook his head and left the building.

Rollaford walked him out of the building and said, “Sorry about that, but that’s just what our boss is like. In reality, he is a civil servant who graduated as an archeology student two years ago. He loves archeology, but it’s hard to make ends meet as an archaeologist, so he became a civil servant. However, he still considers himself an archaeologist, and he’s always excited whenever he discovers anything in the game.”

Roland nodded in sympathy.

He was actually similar. When he found a new magic theory in his Magic Tower, he would laugh aloud too.

He was definitely not in a place to mock Kennedy.

Then, Rollaford gave the gold coin that he promised to Roland.

After thanking him, Roland left.

On the street, Roland turned on the system menu.

Quest “Translate ancient words” accomplished. EXP +214.

The reward was a lot for a blue quest. However, Roland’s EXP bar only increased by a tiny bit.

Starting from level five, the EXP required for a level-up had soared, and hundreds of EXP points were not nearly enough.

Leaving aside the Masters who were older than fifty, Roland was confused about how Andonara became a Master Swordsman when she was only in her twenties.

It didn’t make sense. She didn’t have a system and couldn’t accomplish quests.

Did she automatically receive EXP every day due to her Hero bloodline?

He decided to ask Andonara later when he had time.

Then, Roland took out the black gem he bought and examined it in the sunlight. He found that the silver stripes within the black gem seemed to have formed a strange magic array.

Enchantments, magic scrolls, and magic arrays, the three advanced magic ancillary skills, could decide the upper limit of a Mage to some extent.

Now, Roland had learned a thing or two about enchantment, but he did not know where he could study magic scrolls and magic arrays.

But there was a magic array in this black gem. Did it mean that those major Magic Towers had lessons on magic arrays?

Roland focused his mental power on the black gem, and soon, a red spot moved in the gem and stopped at one side of it.

“The east!”

Roland turned the gem, and the gem simply pointed at the east without turning.

It was truly an indicator.

In a corner, Roland activated Human Cannonball.

While everybody exclaimed in shock, Roland took off into the sky at an unbelievable speed.
