Chapter 55

It was not easy to find such a talent like Olivia .

Toward the Gerton family and the Gerton city, the eyes of Sui Xiong and Lei completely went black . They basically didn’t know where to find a suitable person . If they just roamed around searching like finding a needle in a sea, they would be like a high school girl on Earth waiting for their idol after school . Thereby, their search for a talent, who was not in a moviedom, was much more difficult .

Lei was obviously clear about this point . Hence, when Sui Xiong said that he wanted to find a suitable viscount heir, Lei couldn’t help but doubtedly ask, “If you want to find talented people, where on earth should we go to find?”

As a veteran adventurer cum a thief, he really felt that finding people was not an easy thing .

If they had a fixed target, then it would be easy for them to find one, but right now, they basically didn’t have any specific target object, not even a clue .

Did they perhaps have to go to a tavern in this city, buy the most expensive wine then inquire some information from the bartender?

This method probably helped them find the best fighter, or a wealthy man, or maybe the most beautiful person in this city . But he felt that the bartender would unlikely know who was the most suitable for the viscount’s inheritance in this city .

Not to mention if they got an answer, it would be either Luo Meng or Stelle .

“We can not fall behind without even starting! I have found a method . ” Sui Xiong was also aware that his plan was quite unreasonable . However, he had slipped off his tongue, he then had to try to implement it . Therefore, he couldn’t do anything else except racking his brain to find a way, and try to find some useful solutions in the documents that the God of Salvation had given to him .

He then kept searching like that . In the end, he indeed found a solution .

That was an advanced and somewhat superior spell, named “Future Observation” .

This spell was not like any ordinary one but was beyond the “Legendary Spell” . Its principle was obviously complicated . Its effect was indeed complicated as well—–through a default condition, it would stimulate a situation that was likely to appear under this condition, then conduct observation .

The key of this spell lay in the gap between the observer and the observed object . The bigger the gap was, the lower the observation consumption was; the smaller the gap was, the greater the observation consumption was . If one wanted to observe a higher existence, he should take a shower then sleep and stop daydreaming .

Today, Sui Xiong wanted to find a mortal . As a God, he thought that the consumption would be not too big . . . Going . . .

They left Gerton city first and then found a more empty and remote place to hide the sight of Sui Xiong casting magic . At the beginning when he started to chant a complicated incantation, a boundless dark magic turned into an invisible trail linking to the infinite time .

In front of them, the air vibrated, constantly swaying and twisting as if it was giving birth to something . A more frightening energy slowly surged up, making Lei whose gut was as big as the sky cannot help but be on tenterhooks .

A moment later, after finishing chanting the incantation, Sui Xiong used his dark power as a catalyst to arouse this spell .

After a sharp and clear noise, an invisible piece of broken glass suddenly appeared in front of them, shaking in the sky, swaying, showing a vague picture .

That was Gerton city but with a different detail . In the strangely bustling Gerton city, there were people coming and going . Moreover, their mental states looked not bad . It was clear that the Lord had ruled this city really well .

In the middle of the picture was the viscount residence . From their angles, there was as if a pair of invisible eyes, floating in the air and then gazing at the viscount residence .

Sui Xiong could feel that his own dark power incarnation was like a running-water consumption . He was surprised at heart . At this moment, an arrow had already been loaded onto the bow, and thus, it couldn’t be fired, as he couldn’t do anything else, but clenched his teeth to pour out his dark power constantly . At the same time, he had to gather all his strength to float to the sky to absorb as much dark power as possible to supplement for the insufficient amount .

Even so, he also felt an extremely big pressure that he could not keep this magic for a long time .

Luckily he was a God, if he wanted to find an object that had an enormous gap as compared by those legendary shamans, they would not only need to perform some massive ritual, but they would also need to invest a huge amount of dark power—-even if they could do this, the most they could see was just a hazy scene .

Just like he looked at it directly, even though the picture quality was a bit low, only God could be able to see it .

Therefore, he hurriedly urged his magic . Those invisible eyes quickly moved, and flew straight into the viscount residence then headed to the main hall .

The viscount residence was not big . The invisible eyes instantly got to the place they wanted to see . There was a girl wearing glasses and sitting in the viscount seat . She knitted her brows and said something to the official besides .

“It is her!” Sui Xiong cheered, hurriedly deactivated his spell . The strange sight in front was like broken bubbles, instant disappearing without any trace .

There only remained a dumbstruck lonesome thief . He stood still in daze like the drained out jellyfish God who was disguising as a hat beside .

“This is it? !”!” Lei couldn’t help but grumble, “Randomly chose a target, then randomly used magic to find? This is too easy!”

Sui Xiong was also too lazy to explain to this non-knowledge fellow—Easy? Don’t you see I am worn out like this?

“God is that formidable? I don’t think so . . . If I could easily find her like that, I would have found sooner? Others don’t count . Once the Ruthless Hunter has issued his oracle, he will definitely not bother to waste a single drop of dark power . . . Not to mention, since ancient times, powerhouses who offend Gods can be found everywhere . I have ever heard we have to use magic to find one . . . “

The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he was . He couldn’t help but ask Sui Xiong to get to the bottom of the matter . But even Sui Xiong couldn’t understand himself . The more he explained about it, the more muddled he sounded . In the end, he couldn’t do anything else but temporarily put this matter aside for later .

During the inquiry and explanation session, Sui Xiong eventually recovered his energy . So he urged Lei to come back to the city to buy pen and papers . He then used his tentacles to grab the pen and draw on the paper . In a moment, he finished sketching a very vivid character . That was a girl wearing classes .

“So we have to go find her right now?” Lei looked at the painting, silently exclaimed in admiration, this God really gets skills . He is clearly just a jellyfish yet really good at drawing .

“Of course! I am using magic to find ‘the most suitable talent to rule the Gerton city’ . ” Sui Xiong scornfully said .

“But I have a question . ” Lei said, “Is the picture we have just seen just now a scene in the future?”

“It is not quite a future . Just a scene in the future based on the premise ‘the most suitable person to be the Lord of the Gerton’s collar’ . ” Sui Xiong corrected a bit .

Lei nodded then asked again, “So, that painting is the appearance of the Lord we have to find in the future, not her appearance right now?”

Sui Xiong was suddenly shocked . He indeed didn’t think of this point .

“Well Highness, what exactly does this most suitable person to be the Lord of the Gerton’s collar look like right now?”

Sui Xiong couldn’t help but be distressed . He was deep in his thoughts for a while then drew several portraits .

These portraits were sketched based on his art knowledge to estimate that girl’s age and appearance . He had portraits of her at ten years old, fifteen years old, twenty years old, in addition to the original thirty-year-old one . It was considered enough then .

With this set of portraits, they went straight to a pub in the Gerton city . After paying some gold coins, they had found their target through an information trafficker, who was said that “Know every single elder, kid, girl and boy in the entire Gerton city” .

“She is not little Olivia but a distant relative of the viscount, living in the library . ” The information trafficker who was already old indeed didn’t talk big . He could immediately recognize the target when he saw the ten-year-old portrait, “However, she is fourteen—-*hiccup*, fifteen years old this year . This is a portrait of her several years ago . How can it is really well-preserved like this . “

“In a library? Is she a chief librarian?” Lei asked .

“How can! She is a managerial administrator in charge of lending books and registration . ” The information trafficker smilingly laughed, “It is all selling books anyway . She transcribes all of them herself as well . Unfortunately, there are no useful book, they are just a bunch of worthless entertainment books . “

After inquiring the exact location of the library, Lei hurriedly departed and instanly found the target .

“Are you sure this little girl is the suitable one for the viscount inheritance?” Seeing that a girl wearing glasses, silently reading book behind the long desk at the door of the library, Lei couldn’t help but doubt, “Isn’t perhaps because she looks like jellyfish tentacle due to the cape she is wearing?”

Sui Xiong was furious, using his tentacles to slam his head, “You can doubt my talent but not my personality! How can I recruit someone by those ridiculous reasons!”

“A jellyfish does not the personality . . . ” Lei touched his head . This time was conversely not serious to Sui Xiong . In game’s speaking style, it could be at most deducted by 1 HP . With careful estimation, there were more than 250 HPs, which looked like a drizzle . This Lei didn’t respect his superior at all .

Spitting would be returned by spitting . An important affair could not be delayed . Lei slightly checked his look . After making sure that he would not scare this little kid with his look, he slowly advanced, stroke up a conversation with this girl .

“Hello, I am an adventurer who is very interested in knowledge . May I ask how do I borrow a book?” He asked .

The girl put down the book, looked at him attentively then shook her head .

“You are not a person who is interested in knowledge . ” She said .

Lei’s lie was exposed which made him a little flustered . He let out two dry coughs, then looked around a bit, pretended to be mystic, said in a low voice, “In fact, I coincidentally discover a treasure map . I thought that I should go to the library to find some clues . . . “

“Please don’t think I am stupid because of my age . ” The girl raised her glasses . Cold light seemed to flash up in her eyes, “This is a place where predecessors’ intelligence knowledges are preserved, and not a place for you to perform comedy acts . I suggest you going to the pub . “

Lei was choked for few seconds . He then sighed and said properly: “My big boss feels that you are very promising, thinks of letting you be Gerton viscount————this time, I am really not lying . “

The girl who was calm all along finally showed some panics: “A viscount? How can I be compared to the last viscount? I am just a relative . . . This is impossible . “

Lei’s eyes immediately lit up, “You really do think about this matter, do you!”

He didn’t wait for the girl to deny, immediately fired, “You also don’t try to deny this . You are not the one good at lying . Wanting to deceive such a veteran person like me is impossible! Not to the problem of a relative, the former king of the Tercel Kingdom in the mainland has the background of a relative . The fact that you are able to see through my lie has proved you are very talented . A talented person should have ambition . What is wrong with this?!”

He still wanted to continue convincing, and then marched forward to this girl in the attempt of capturing her . However, as he suddenly felt a warning from Sui Xiong, he instantly let go off her without thinking of anything, and directly leaped at least 10 steps outward .

Almost at the same time when he jumped out, a man whose hair was gray and body was feeble with down and out appearance in worn clothes suddenly appeared in front of Lei, carrying an old broom in his hand . It was as if he had been here all along .

Lei looked at this old man from afar . Although he didn’t sense any pressure or danger from this old man, there was a deep oppression feeling surging in his heart . This kind of oppression was like an invisible hand throbbing his heart and lungs, making his breathing difficult .

“A-legendary-powerhouse?” He took a deep breath to calm his emotion down, at the same time slowly talked about this old man’s identity .
