Chapter 36: On the Shore of a Strange Lake
The shores of Ximei Lake have long been plunged into a gloomy night, and only the lake water occasionally fluctuates. The migratory birds that roost there are long gone, but the flowers that suddenly wither by the lake are terrifying. And when Rachel and Moon came to the lake side, the petals that had long since fallen miraculously flew back to the stems, and the flowers that bloomed in an instant exuded a mesmerizing fragrance, which was even more pitiful.
"The flowers here are so beautiful." Moon secretly admired in her heart, but she didn't dare to speak out, the last action had taught her too deep a lesson.
"This flower is unusually beautiful, don't touch it!" Rachel seemed to see through Moon and reminded in a low voice.
Moonn was surprised, but couldn't help but be more careful.
It was the dead of night on the shores of Ximei Lake, except for the spicy fragrance of the plants and the strange fragrance of the flowers by the lake, everything seemed to be still, without the slightest sound. It's so quiet that there's no noise of mosquitoes on a summer day.
It's unusually peaceful, and it's frightening.
"Let's go!" Rachel whispered, but didn't dare to use the magic sound waves to transmit a voice to Moon. Because no magic sound wave can escape the ears of the same magicians, and so do the dark magic believers.
Moon followed Rachel through the low bushes and toward the lake. The otherwise dry pavement beneath your feet became more and more wet and sticky, and the muddy touch was different from the dampness of a normal lakeside meadow. It's more like there's blood intertwined deep underground, and it's so thick that it's uncomfortable. And the strange floral fragrance confuses people's sense of smell, and they can't smell anything other than the aroma.
His heart couldn't help but speed up, and Muen didn't dare to look at the road under his feet, for fear that if he looked down, he would see bright red blood. The heavy magic robes dragged to the ground at an inopportune time, and Moon jumped up as if he had been electrocuted, shaking the corners of his clothes where the dirt was stained.
"Moon!" Rachel let out a low cry as she pulled Munn over and quickly hid in the low bushes beside her.
At this time, Mu En realized his reckless behavior just now, and immediately did not dare to make a loud noise. However, the stains on the magic robes were getting more and more, and the mud was like a moving organism, staining the corners of the clothes and spreading. And Rachel's blue magic robe was still spotless, obviously dragging to the ground as well, why was this happening? Moon had doubts, but at this moment, he didn't dare to speak.
"Didn't you enchant the magic robe before you came?" Rachel asked quietly as she looked around the lake.
Damn, I made a mistake again! Moon cursed inwardly. However, she had no experience in facing the battle, and she really didn't know that she still had to enchant the magic robe.
"I forgot." Moon had no choice but to lie.
"Enchant now, hold on!" Rachel still didn't dare to speak up.
This time Moon was completely helpless, where would she enchant the magic robe? It was the first time she had heard of such a strange thing. I couldn't help but be nervous, and I was scared like a thief.
"What's wrong?" Rachel withdrew her gaze from the lake and looked at her worriedly.
"You...... Can you help me? Moon asked awkwardly, blushing cheeks.
As soon as this was said, Moon regretted it, because she clearly saw Rachel's surprised gaze, and the frowning sword eyebrows. I'm afraid I'm going to show my stuffing this time...... Thinking of this, Muen hurriedly repented: "Forget it, forget it, I'll ...... it myself"
Rachel didn't ask much, just said anxiously, "Give me the magic materials." ”
Moon didn't know what kind of magic material he was referring to. Don't do it, don't do it! Thinking of this, Moon took out the phantom powder that had not been used up last time from his pocket and handed it to Rachel.
Rachel's hand taking the Phantom Powder paused visibly, but eventually took the Phantom Powder, and then whispered a spell in his mouth, summoning a wand the size of an arm. The tiny pieces of phantom powder were sucked into the body by the wand as if they had seen a loved one, and then a white shimmer of light enveloped the magic robe, and the magic robe danced with it, and returned to its original state in an instant.
"Alright." Rachel returned the remaining phantom powder to Moon, but her palms were already beads of sweat.
In the enchantment just now, Rachel first summoned the shading barrier, and then enchanted the magic robe. Such a way of suppressing the mana in the body made Rachel, who was originally full of mana, feel mentally tired, and all the mana was gathered in the shading barrier, but he was constantly inhaled into his body, and he did not dare to cast half a point to the outside world. The feeling of this mana colliding with himself made him feel numb and painful all over his body.
Moon didn't know what had just happened, how could she know this as a beginner in magic? She only saw that the dark green magic robe had returned to its original color, and the stains were completely gone. Moreover, the magic robe is very light to wear on the body, and there is no longer a heavy and breathable stuffy feeling.
