Chapter 10: [Nicole’s Secret]

If it were you, how would you feel when you saw a living face in front of you? Maybe you would say, what is that?
But if this person's face is not on someone's head, but a whole face, placed on the table in front of you-there is only one face! No head, no body, not even hair!
OMG! It is like a human face mask, a human skin mask! But it is not! ! !
Even Roddy, who is quite courageous, almost screamed out in shock. The reason is: this thing is like a human face mask-in fact, it is more like a human face In the box-the most important thing is that Roddy clearly saw that this face is actually alive! !
He, no, it should be called "it"! It was still smiling at Roddy! What made Roddy almost fainted was that when he saw Roddy's face full of horror, it actually blinked at Roddy and made a grimace!
Looking at the boss with a long mouth, Roddy was big enough to squeeze a fist. Nicole showed a mocking look in her eyes, and sneered: "What's the matter? Afraid?"
Roddy took a long breath, but couldn't help taking a step back, and then exclaimed in a low voice: "This...what is this? God, why is it...is... alive?? !!!"
Nicole sneered: "Scared? Aren't you brave?"
As she spoke, she stretched out both hands and gently pinched the sides of the "face" in the box, so she actually lifted it up.
What made Roddy almost fainted was that Nicole's pinch was so painful-there was still a trace of pain on that face.
Roddy's eyes widened, not daring to take a mouthful, staring straight at the object in Nicole's hand.
It looks like it is transparent, although the color is not much different from human skin, but it is very shiny. Whether it is a person's eyes, nose or other facial features, they are very real.
"This is an invaluable treasure of the family! It is a pity that it is not of much use-this treasure is passed down from the first ancestor of the Tulip family, Duke Rudolph, the founding marshal of the empire!" Nicole gently squared the face. Hold it carefully in the palm of your hand.
"Then... what the is this?"
"A mask! A magic mask with its own life!" Nicole said softly.
"Magic?" Roddy exclaimed!
You know, in the empire, magic is popular! In fact, as early as hundreds of years ago, on the continent of the Empire, both spells and magic were very popular. But two hundred years ago, a great figure like the sage of Dandong appeared among the warlocks. Dandong is not only a great warlock himself, but also a great master of invention! He improved and created a lot of magic techniques and carried them forward. The upper layers of the empire also supported Dandong very much. Both in propaganda and strategy, he placed more emphasis on magic techniques. After two hundred years, the empire's magicians can be said to be Unprecedented grand and powerful, but the magical culture has gradually declined.
As of today, the entire empire has not found many magicians.
Only in the north of the empire, on the continent of Roland across the Thunder Strait, is the place where magical culture flourishes!
"This is indeed a magical treasure, and it is an artifact left from the ancient times, did you know? This mask is made of human skin of the elves!"
"The human skin of the elves?"
You know, to this day, the elves are already a historical ranking, thousands of years ago, that kind of strange creatures had long since become extinct. Now, whether in the empire or in the northern continent of Roland, you can never see that kind of strange creature.
"Things made of human skin! Can it be said to be artifacts? Too evil!" Roddy exclaimed.
"No! Although this thing is made of human skin, it is not a product of evil! It was a famous great magician in the history of the elves for his pious beliefs. Before he died, he used his face The skin made this magic product! This devout believer named this magic mask "God's Smile". It is said that the great magician of the elves was six hundred years old when he died. His magic has reached an unfathomable level!"
Nicole’s delicate voice whispered the history of this object. Roddy didn’t say it, but he whispered in his heart: Oh my God, the skin peeled off the face of a six-hundred-year-old guy is very interesting. What? I don't want to touch this kind of thing!
Nicole saw that Roddy’s face was different. Although he didn’t speak, he had already guessed the thoughts in his mind from his face, and then said lightly:
The elves are one of the most amazing races in the world. This mask Although it was made of human skin, before the great magician died, his body was already close to crystallization. Therefore, this mask, not so much made of human skin, would be more suitable as a magic crystal. "
"Wait..." Roddy's heart suddenly moved: "You..." As soon as he said the word "you" in his mouth, he saw Nicole's eyes staring, scared Roddy hurriedly shrank his head, and changed his words: "Lord...man..., why did you show me this thing? If it is so precious...what does it have to do with me?"
There was a smile on Nicole's face-to Roddy's eyes, it was a smile like a weasel seeing a chicken.
"The reason why'God's Smile' became a divine tool is that there were many miraculous beginnings. Unfortunately, the great magician died shortly after it was made. Many of its magical uses have not been handed down until now, but according to The two known uses are already very wonderful: First, the person wearing it can change his appearance, just like a chameleon, and can change to the appearance of anyone he has ever seen, or what he imagined Whatever it looks like!"
"It's quite interesting..." Roddy looked curious.
Nicole smiled calmly and said: "But, that is only one use of this mask, and I am more interested in another use: after a magician puts a ban on this mask, this mask will become this magic. A specific face the teacher hopes for, and then, when this mask is brought to anyone's face, that person's face will become that specific face... and..." Nicole's voice gradually showed a bit of mockery: " Only the magician can take off the mask. If the magician does not remove the mask, that person will wear that mask for life! He can't take it off anyway!"
Roddy heard the deep meaning of Nicole's words, and subconsciously stepped back a few steps, and said loudly: "You...you...do you want me... to wear this thing?"
Nicole smiled slightly, her eyes flickered, and she walked up step by step. She touched the "smile of God" in her hand, smiling meaningfully, and slowly said: "When you attacked me that day, your companion once said A warlock, I said he was wrong, I am not a warlock! Today I tell you, I am actually a...magic!"
