Shower Chapter 21: Ice Circle (2)

"Aisha National Chronicles - Hash Code Empire (III)" - Lucius Goode. :

Chuan Ling:

The Kawa Spirit is a water spirit that connects to the purest water source. As a result, they're often found in springs, waterfalls, ponds, or streams near the source of blue mana. The Hashcode Empire is inhabited by Elsa, the world's largest number of Chuan Spirits. The clergy of the Naga would often invite the Kawa spirits to their regular rituals to purify the water. The River Spirit has a Water Essence that stores blue mana. They will give the essence of their water to those who share their hearts – and this is not limited to Naga.

Chuan Ling can't speak, but they can convey their emotions through their thoughts. You can understand their joys and sorrows when you see the ripples and splashes of water on their bodies – if you can relate to them, otherwise you'll just get a jumble of thoughts.

Those who have access to their water essence can summon blue mana to summon their power. Their main bodies won't come, though, but their power and form can activate their water essence through blue mana, casting physical images wherever there's liquid.

Often, they provide their allies with their mental and magical protection during battle.

"They communicate their thoughts to another creature through a spiritual connection ... We need that capability. "The mages of the Council of the Seven Rings were deeply attracted by the Chuan Lings who accompanied the Naga envoys. In particular, their ability to combine the thoughts of allies to share any beneficial magical blessings. Enraged by failure after failure, the mages who tried to get their hands on the Kawa Spirits had captured and imprisoned many of them for their wicked and crazy experiments - certainly not the ones that inhabited the Hashcode Empire. However, when all the mages who tortured Chuan Ling drowned inexplicably, the mages were terrified.

You can kill a river spirit, but you can't desecrate them. "If you set fire to a tree, you burn a part of your soul, and if you murder a life, you murder a part of your soul. And kill a Chuan Spirit, and you'll lose even more. ”

Chuanling has a permanent protective diaphragm. "Mash out all his water first... Maybe then they will be obedient. This popular slang term is being used more and more in the Aisha world, and it means that slamming into someone's vital point is often the best way to get the attention of someone who ignores your arguments. It originated from the Kawa Spirits who possessed liquid bodies that mitigated all of their physical and magical damage.

Snow Maiden:

The Snow Maiden are those water spirits who are connected to the snow and ice. They can be found not only in the Hashema Empire, but also in the snowy extremes of the Shining Ice Peaks and the Dora Empire. Most of them were in retreat in the mountains, seeking to understand the sublimation of Aisha's original power. However, Naga had more communication with them, and they had lived in harmony for centuries.

Some snow maidens will also go out of the mountains and enter human society to wander. Some of the Snow Maidens who have been practicing for hundreds of years are also familiar with the language and culture of human society.

"Sarasa has three moods, one that burns, one that cleanses, and one that is cold to the depths of the marrow." All nagas learn this lesson at a very young age. While there are three ways to wield the power of water, Snow Maiden's icy touch is the most effective way to paralyze enemy mobility and dissipate physical strength and morale during combat.

"Snow can be used to keep warm, but ice is always cold death." The Duke of Running Wolf once wrote to the Executioner Duke, asking him to immediately release the imprisoned Snow Maiden. The Executioner Duke did not obey the request of the Duke of Runwolf, and in the end, the town of Noose was frozen into a lump of ice, along with the then Duke of the Executioner and all the townspeople of the town of Noose, and the imprisoned Snow Maiden was missing, Gegit Exkushin inherited the title of Duke of the Executioner.

Legend has it that a daimyo of the Hashimah Empire fell in love with a Snow Maiden, but was deeply influenced by the Snow Maiden's eternal power of ice. In order to kiss his lover's face, the daimyo spent 12 years in search of the Eternal Flame Pearl in the Qin Empire, and finally he made the Eternal Flame Pearl into a ring. The daimyo was later with his Snow Maiden lover, but as the daimyo grew old, the ring made of the Eternal Flame Pearl was not enough to withstand the bone-chilling cold. Then the Snow Maiden put the ring on their child's hand and disappeared into the depths of the mountain with her dying name. That's right, that child is none other than the most powerful and youngest daimyo of the Hashima's Empire, Yamada Motoku, whose family crest is a double-arrow burning ice.

The group came to the blue light curtain. York lifted his visor, revealing his fat cheeks, and exhaled a breath that he was about to reach out and touch.

Joseph grabbed him and reprimanded, "Damn, you don't want to die!" ”

York's massive body fell backwards to the ground, his helmet falling on the snow without making a sound.

York hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, sir, I didn't realize the danger, that weird ripple made me can't help but touch it." ”

Michael looked at York, who was sitting on the ground, and said to Joseph, "Well, I don't think he is to blame, he doesn't know the danger here." Actually, I haven't figured out what the hell this thing is, so I suggest you step back and see the truth about it. ”

Jinx also said, "Sir, actually, I couldn't help but want to touch this light curtain just now. It's as if ... ”

Sando immediately took over: "It's like being strongly tempted, right?" ”

Jinx and York nodded incessantly like chickens eating rice. Sandor asked, "Mr. Michael, do you feel this way?" ”

"I don't feel that way, why, do you all have the urge to touch the light curtain? Joseph? Do you have one too? Michael asked warily as he pointed the tip of his wand at the light curtain.

"I did have a momentary impulse, but my sanity immediately stopped me from doing so." Joseph replied.

"It seems that this light curtain is strange, it seems to have an effect on people's hearts, and his ability is a bit like the witch of the Hashema Empire and the song demon of the sea. Let's be careful. But it seems to wane as my willpower grows - at least it doesn't affect me at all. Michael calmly analyzed.

"Now, let's step back a little more, I have to show my hands first, understand the dangers of this light curtain, and then we will enter." Michael's wandless hand waved back, motioning for everyone to step back. His wand kept pointing at the light curtain, and as he spoke, he stepped back a bit.

All of them retreated almost 50 meters. With a wave of his wand, Michael snapped off a branch with a 'bar' sound, sprinkling some snow before drifting into the light curtain.

There was a ripple on the surface of the light curtain, and then the branches passed through the blue light curtain and fell to the ground with a 'click', and nothing happened.

"York! Take out the grouse that we didn't finish eating that day. Michael ordered the butcher.

When York heard this, he quickly took out the small half grouse from his bag and handed it to Michael. Then he quickly retreated, and the armor on his body trembled with the fat flesh of his body, as if he would be tempted again by the light curtain if he ran slowly.

Michael raised the grouse and threw it into the light curtain. The same ripples, the same nothing.

Michael's brow furrowed, thinking that the curtain would not be so harmless, and ordered Scout Pete to catch a living thing.

Pete gladly understood Michael's meaning, and ran into the woods, and in a short time caught a rabbit with a throwing knife stuck in his hind foot, and blood ran down his fur, staining Pete's pants and belt red, and of course, the rabbit was still alive.

Pete pulls out his throwing knife, rubs it on his cloak, and hands the rabbit to Michael. Michael nodded, then motioned for Pete to back off. Similarly, throw the rabbit into the blue light curtain.

The rabbit struggled in the air, kicking on all fours. However, as if there were invisible chains binding it, it could not resist and escape. The moment the rabbit touches the blue light curtain, the light curtain emits a burst of blue brilliance. Michael hurriedly waved his wand, and a wall of water immediately rose from the ground, protecting the group behind him. Seeing this, the people behind the water wall also hurriedly made a move to protect the vital point with their arms. The wall of water was so thick that I couldn't see what was happening in front of me vaguely, and I could only hear a 'gurgling' sound from the direction of the blue screen. It took a long time for the sounds and flashes to pass before Michael withdrew his magic. I saw that the rabbit fell to the ground, still maintaining its movements and demeanor when it touched the light curtain. However, it was now motionless - it had become an eternal ice sculpture with a hideous expression on its face.

Seeing this, everyone looked at each other, their eyes full of fear.
