The lake looks like a giant mirror, laid flat on the ground, and the edge of the frame is at the feet of Julius and Lei. If this was really a mirror, the two of them would definitely step on it in order to escape. But this "mirror" is not fixed, and the "mirror" occasionally fluctuates. The surface of the water rippled, and the microwaves spread out in all directions. The ripple was beneath their feet, and finally vanished.

Rei picked up a piece of gravel at her feet and threw it into the lake. The gravel fell into the lake, only stirred up a small wave, and then disappeared. Except for the ripples spreading out in circles, there was no more movement.

"The water is so deep that it's impossible to run through. Rei said, "It's impossible to swim through, God knows what's strange in there, and before you can swim for a while, the lower half of your body may be gnawed away." ”

"And where can we swim?" said Julius, "we don't know what's going on the other side, if it's more dangerous over there......"

On the opposite side of them was the darkness that could not be seen clearly, since this was a lake, then there must be something on the other side of the lake, and the space was so large that there was not even a ceiling overhead, but some light could be faintly seen. Those points of light were like stars in the night sky, dotting over the space, making the place look like the ground where the night had become thicker, rather than the underground world - but there was only night here, and the sun could never rise.

The place was bigger than they could have imagined, and a huge dark space that could easily be lost in was not much stronger than the labyrinth behind them. Like now, they couldn't find the direction they should flee to, everything here was unfamiliar, and wherever they ran was probably a very dangerous option.

"It's better than staying here and waiting to die. Lei said to Julius, "Let's run along the lake, and get rid of the two behind us first!"

After she had finished speaking, she ran along the lake in the direction of the left, and Julius hastened to follow, and he felt that he could not stop the panicked little girl even if he spoke.

They hadn't run a few steps before a familiar voice came from behind them, "Split!"

When the wind picked up again, Julius quickly came back to his senses and blocked the long sword in front of him. The wind whistled at him, and he felt the strong wind blow across his cheeks, scraping them painfully, as if they had been slashed by a knife against his face. The wind was strong, but Julius felt that the impact of the wind was a little different from the original wind blade, not like a knife, but more like the wind pressure brought by a knife as it slashed through the air......

Julius felt a warning in his heart, and it felt worse than ever. The other party must have used the spell that was used on him just now, and you can understand it by listening to the voice. But the wind blade didn't hit him, so where did the wind blade go?

Julius heard Lei's screams, sounds he had never heard before. "Lei!" he stood in front of him, his eyes almost unable to open due to the wind, he wanted to turn back to see how Lei was now, but not far in front of him were the two black robes, if he turned around, I was afraid that it would be his turn next.

The young black robe, the robe on his body was fluttering, and the old black robe was behind him. The two didn't walk fast, but they finally caught up with them, and seeing the wind blowing their robes under their feet, it was probably some kind of spell that was used to catch up with Julius and Lei so quickly. And they knew the place well, and Julius they just walked around like headless flies, and it wasn't strange that they could catch up.

"That's a fast run, rats, and I've wasted so much magic. The young black robe had an impatient look on his face, and when he saw Julius finally stop, he was also quite proud in his heart, it seemed that it was a good choice to do it to the little girl first, if he used a spell on the stinky boy with the sword in front of him, at least the little girl would continue to escape.

Although in this kind of place, no matter where you flee, it is only a dead end, and jumping into the lake, it is impossible to have a chance of survival. Because of this consideration, the young black robe has always been at ease, as if he was just getting rid of a few inconsequential mice.

Julius was not feeling well now, he couldn't take his eyes off the two black robes approaching in front of him, they approached a cloth, he could only continue to retreat, but when Rei was behind his feet, he couldn't retreat any further. The only good news now was that he could still hear Rei moaning in pain—meaning she wasn't dead yet, and she still had the strength to make a sound. But Julius couldn't be sure of the severity of her wounds, at least not for now.

The two black-robed men stood not far from them, not coming any closer. Julius didn't think that the two men had suddenly become merciful, a spell could not get too close to his prey, they were not warriors, there was no need to do so.

"Give you a chance to keep running away, and you can go and see how the kid is hurting now. The young black-robed man smiled, as if he had said such a merciful word.

"If I'm a little distracted, you're going to attack me, right? Julius was not as naïve as he used to be, and he had paid a lot for his innocence—and what made him even more painful was that the mistakes of his innocence were not borne by himself, but by an old man.

These things have always been the pain that Julius hid in his heart, and he would not show it, nor would he dare to do it.

The mistake made because of naivety, Julius did not want to make it again.

"I thought you were just an ignorant teenager. The young black robe laughed a few times, "It seems that you know us quite well...... Know what kind of being we mages are. ”

"It has been said that you are all tricksters and liars. Julius repeated what Luluna had said to him. Although it was Pasta and Olga who instructed him about the battle, Lulunaka would occasionally say strange things to him on a whim. Most of them he didn't understand, such as "The mystery of magic is just a ridiculous joke" and "How many people remember that there is such a thing as an arcane god, after all, it is now an era when there are only three 'one gods'" Julius didn't understand at all. He only remembered one thing, in Lulunaka's words, mages were not "good things", they were all liars - whether they were first-rate or third-rate.
