Chapter 59: Night

Bran sat by the campfire, stunned as he watched the leaping flames, and Flowey the black cat reclined on his lap, licking his paws unhurriedly. Not far away, a few fleshless bones were thrown at random, and a few squirrels were gathered on the side to gnaw on them.

It's still a while before it gets dark, but that's all it can be. Long-distance solo travel must retain a certain amount of physical strength to cope with various accidents, so Bran started to rest early.

Annoying mosquitoes began to gather on Bran's head, eventually forming a cloud of smoke that looked like a swirling black cloud from afar. The magic net was constantly disturbed by this black cloud, and a regular buzz was given back to Bran, which woke up the stunned Bran. Dragon Gold, which was infiltrated and assimilated by Bran's magic power, began to be driven by Bran to evenly cover the skin and avoid mosquito bites. At this time, the benefits of dragon gold appeared, the breathability was good, and there was no feeling of stuffiness around the body.

It's still within the reach of home, and at Bran's walking pace, it's going to take a few days before it's really out of the castle's sphere of influence, so it's safer. With the lesson of the early morning, Bran no longer dared to take it for granted.

Five starlight emerges from Bran's body, which is Bran's recent harvest. Since being assimilated by Bran's magic, Starlight has become part of the magic web, and can be absorbed into the body without hindrance, but they have a clear separation from Bran's original magic. Although these starlights are invisible when they enter the body, and Bran does not feel any discomfort, when released from the body, they become a dark cloud of starlight that is visible to the naked eye.

Over time, the memories of the wizard in Starlight faded. It is now impossible to read any memories from the original starlight. But what is it? Bran's confusion was even greater. Bran let the starlight float outside of his body, and there was no need to hide it now. Commanding a swarm of starlight floating overhead, he can only find out the secret of starlight through various experiments that hit the big luck.

......

As night fell, Bran began to carefully discern the various information obtained by the magic network, taking advantage of the relative safety, he needed to sort through the information, knowing what information could be ignored and what needed attention. For Bran, who was camping in Northland for the first time, everything seemed new. It's not that he hasn't had camping experience, and he has had the experience of surviving in the wild, but it's been too long. Much of the past in the previous life can only be a memory, many things have been lost, and this young body needs to re-cope with various experiences and stimuli before it can absorb and digest the bits and pieces of spirit and memory before it can become a part of the body's instincts. Now everything can only be a fresh start.

The Magic Network can accept too much information, and it will be a long process to passively correspond this information with the real thing. For the external environment, it often takes a process to gradually become familiar and adapted, and then gradually integrate into this environment. Just as when you first enter the city from a mountain village, you will feel overwhelmed by the noise of the city, and the people in the city will suddenly enter the mountain village, only to be awakened by the silence in the quiet night. This is the embodiment of the body's adaptation to the environment, and the sudden change of the environment will cause strong stimulation to the body and mind, and at this time, in order to adapt to the environment, the mental and physical exertion of the person will also intensify.

Now Bran needs to take the initiative to do it, to speed up the process. Therefore, he tries his best to refer to his own visual, auditory, and tactile senses according to the strength of the information feedback.

......

Looking at the night sky in front of you, how long has it been since you looked up at the starry sky, and when was the last time. At least Bran was sure that he hadn't looked up at the stars in the wilderness when he came to this world. There is no longer the familiar Big Dipper, no more familiar galaxy, no more Magpie Bridge, no more annual meeting.

A disturbance broke Bran's thoughts, and Flowey, who had been lying on Bran's lap, gently rolled over and got up, as a small snake the thickness of a thumb swam around Bran. So he turned his attention to the little snake and tried its intentions.

Soon he found out what attracted the little snake. Several clusters of starlight around Bran had been spinning around Bran, and the one at the very edge attracted it.

This piqued Bran's interest, and there are so many of them in the wild that you don't bother to pay attention to them. But why did this little snake get attracted to it. If Mana Starlight had the ability to attract such critters, then Bran would have been surrounded by him by this time.

He stopped the movement of the starlight and sent it to the little snake. At this time, the little snake actually hissed excitedly, trying to wrap around the starlight, but the magic starlight was invisible in a sense, so its body passed through the starlight. In Bran's eyes, the body of the little snake and the magic starlight seemed to be in two different latitudes, and part of the body of the little snake was obscured by the starlight.

After many fruitless entanglements, the little snake finally lost his patience. It opened its mouth and devoured it directly at Starlight. Just when Bran thought it would fail again, it actually swallowed the magical starlight, and as it swallowed the starlight, Bran felt a strong burst of magical power. Is this little snake also a monster? It's just that the magic reaction is too weak for Bran to ignore.

The devoured starlight and Bran became weak, which was the interference and shielding of the magic power of the little snake's own biological field. It's just that the magic starlight is already a part of Bran's magic power, and at this time, it is constantly emitting bursts of magic fluctuations from the little snake's body, and this simultaneous effect of internal and external effects finally penetrates the interference and shielding, and clearly feeds back everything that is happening now to Bran.

The two forces of magic entangled and devoured each other. Except for the initial outbreak, the starlight was suppressed for a while, and then this magic power was gradually assimilated and withdrawn, and finally the two magic forces were no longer bound by the little snake's body, and gradually emerged from its body, just as Bran had just observed, the two magic starlight and the little snake's body seemed to be in two different latitudes, and they did not affect each other. At this time, Bran could not continue to spy and sense the situation in the little snake's body.

The little snake, which had lost its abilities, did not seem to be harmed by its nature, it just lost interest in the magic starlight and swam away on its own.

Bran pulled back the two clusters of starlight and observed the starlight he had received from the little snake, which was a little small, and now it was like a satellite revolving around the large starlight cluster. Interestingly, this was not a simple assimilation, nor devouring, the original starlight cluster captured the other party as Bran captured it.

Bran was a little excited. He overlooked one thing, neglected from the beginning. This world can awaken not only people, but also animals, and perhaps all other living beings. From the time the black cat Flowey awakens with him, he should have thought of it.

Now that he was facing the whole Northland, he was going to go to the wasteland, he was going to face a multitude, untold number of lives, according to the probability, an ant colony, a huge beehive should have such an individual, but he had ignored it before.

In the middle of the moon, Bran relaxed his body with joy and fell asleep cross-legged. At this time, his magic web shimmered with the starlight in the night sky, like a huge invisible spider web, protecting Bran in it.
