Chapter 9 Departure
In the end, Flandi did not agree to Ted's request to visit the Colorful Lizard with him and his friends, after all, Lilia had made an appointment first, and Flandi was a little curious about this somewhat mysterious little girl. Lilia asked herself so solemnly, there must be something she couldn't handle by herself.
Ted was the first to finish eating, squeaked at Frandi and Lilia with a napkin, and ran out, he had to hurry up and tell his friends not to provoke the little multicolored lizards. You must know that the colorful phantom lizard is a reptile, it can be as tall as him, and the length must not exceed 3 meters.
The second one to finish was Flandy, who had always eaten in the big dining room, even rudely, but that was the way both adults and children ate there. There was no one to teach him to chew slowly. He himself likes this kind of hearty eating. If it hadn't been for Ted pulling him to chat, he would have finished eating.
Lilia was the last to finish eating, and she didn't make Freddy wait long. Although the little girl did not eat quickly, she ate much smaller than the two young men.
Two maids were busy cleaning up the dishes, and Flandy was taken to her room by Lilia.
It was Lilia's room, but it wasn't where the little girl slept, but the living room of her room. Although it was a living room, Flandi felt like he was in a laboratory.
A room full of bottles and cans, all kinds of strange and incomprehensible instruments. There are also a lot of materials to study or consult, although things are complicated, but they are well organized and do not seem cluttered. It seems that Lilia is an attentive little girl.
Leaning into the corner of the room, there is a large bag and a small bag similar to the travel bag of the previous life, both of which have straps, which seem to be able to be carried on the back. However, it does not have many pockets like travel bags.
"Flandy, this is my preparation, it's all we might use, you help me carry this big bag, I'll carry the small one. My strength is relatively small, so I can only ask you to work hard. Lilia said to Frandy.
Flandy went over and picked up the big backpack, and it felt like it weighed forty or fifty pounds, and it seemed that there were a lot of things. However, this weight is not very difficult for Flandy now. Although Frandy is young, he has a lot of strength.
"Wow, that's all that, Lilia, where are you going, what's in the bag?" said Frankie, surprised.
"Frandy ......" Lilia paused. As if he had made up his mind, he solemnly said to Frandi: "Flandie, going to that place this time will be dangerous, but it is very important to me, I can't go to anyone else, I beg you to help me." ”
Seeing Lilia say to herself so seriously, Flandi also felt a trace of worry. However, looking at the little girl's expectant eyes, she still felt that her current body was so strong, and she didn't leave Psalal Island, there should be no problem.
So Flandi patted his chest and said confidently, "Don't worry, Lilia, there will be no danger with me." ”
"Thank you, Frandy," Lilia said sincerely.
After saying that, Lilia took a letter from her pocket, put it on the table in the living room, and said, "I will leave a letter for the old man, who will come in the evening to teach me some knowledge, and if we do not return in the evening, he will go and find us." ”
In fact, this is one of the reasons why Flandy is relieved, Psalar Island is dominated by the Archmage of Algernon, as long as he doesn't run too far, the Archmage can find a wide range of probing spells. The experience of being pulled out of the tuba in the woods was the most humiliating thing since Freddy was reborn.
"Then let's go!" said Frandy with a wave of his hand, saddling his large backpack on his back.
"Well, where are we going?" Waiting out of the magic tower, Flandi was embarrassed to find that he hadn't asked the destination yet.
A smile appeared on Lilia's pretty little face, and she said to Flandy, "Let's go to the gopher up to the north." ”
"Is that the big burrowing rat? No problem. Aunt Beth took me to teach it a lesson, and it knows me!" "When I was a child, Aunt Beth once took Frandy to visit all the high-level magical beasts on Psalar Island. Among them was this gopher.
This monster loves to make holes, and there is nothing to see on the surface of its territory, but the underground within a radius of two or three kilometers is jagged and scattered by it, and it is as complex as a labyrinth. Flandy and his friends had been there before. Fortunately, I didn't go too far, and as soon as a few young friends were scared, everyone retreated. Otherwise, the Grand Magister will have to work hard again.
That big rat is a high-level magical beast, and it has wisdom no less than that of a human. The children of the island are burrowing in its holes, and not only can it not harm these children, but it has to protect them in the shadows. If the children were killed or injured in its territory, Archmagister Algernon would not let it go.
The topography of Phosals is low in the south and high in the north, especially in the southwest there is a large beach area. The island's marina was built here. Flendi and his friends also love to play here. On the north side of the island, however, there is a cliff where several high-level magical beasts live. The Gopher's territory is here, mainly because the terrain is relatively high, and it won't shoot water when it burrows. If you make a hole in the south, it is estimated that it will be filled with water after two or three meters.
Less than two kilometers out of the castle, the woods began to thicken, and as we walked on, all kinds of towering ancient trees were uneven, with lush branches and leaves, and the wild grasses on the ground were lush and vibrant, and all kinds of vines in the forest were intertwined and intertwined. It was noon, and the sun wheel in the sky was full of sunshine. Rays of sunlight shine through the overlapping branches and leaves, and countless small flowers dot the weeds. It's simply beautiful.
Flandi has been playing in the woods since he was a child, and the paths in the woods of Psalal Island are almost touched by him, and if it were just Lilia herself, it would really be difficult to walk an inch.
After about an hour, the two rested in the woods. After all, he carried a large backpack of dozens of pounds and walked on a rugged forest path. Even if Flandi could stand it, Lilia would have to rest for a while.
In fact, the territory of the gopher is only seven or eight kilometers away from the castle, and if it is a flat road, Flandy will run to it in one go. But walking the path in the forest can stretch the distance a lot.
Two hours later, Francie and Lilia found the hole in the gopher cave beneath a rocky hill. The diameter of the hole is more than one and a half meters, and Flandy has to keep his head down to get in. The cave was dark and secluded, and a cool breeze blew, making the two people who had been on the road for a long time feel cool.
"Let's take a break, Frandy. The little girl's forehead oozed fine beads of sweat, and her face was flushed with tiredness.
Frandy was also a little tired. He put the large backpack on the ground, carried two rocks and put them in the hole, sat one for himself, and let Lilia sit on the other. Sheltering from the sun and blowing the cool breeze blowing from the cave is very pleasant.
"Lilia, we need torches to drill holes, you rest first, I'll make two. "It's a forest, there are all kinds of trees, and it's easy for Flendy to make a torch.
"No need, Frandy. I brought this," Lilia said, opening her little backpack, looking for it, and finding two glass balls that were a little smaller than the little girl's little hands, hollow, and in them were placed a small flame of light, emitting a soft light.
"Shining light, you brought this, it's so much better than a torch, seal it in a glass ball, Lilia, you're a genius?" Flandy took a glass ball and held it in his hand to observe. The glass ball was round, and the whole thing encased the sparkling light inside. There is not a single blemish.
"There's a section of water where I'm going, and the light goes out when it touches the water, so I put it in a glass ball." Lilia replied softly.
The Shining Light is a magical artifact that is found in most of the homes of the inhabitants of the island of Pussal, and it is a soft light that has no temperature. Ideal for night lighting. When it's time to sleep, just cover it with a black cover. A shining light can last a long time. It's not very precious, but it's a bit fragile. The wind will blow it away, and the water will extinguish it.
Frankie also wanted to use it to explore some dark places. However, be very careful when holding it, otherwise it will fall apart at once. Unexpectedly, Lilia actually encapsulated it in a glass ball. This surprised Flandy a little, and dangled it in his hand. Can be protected by glass balls. The shining light can't meet the wind, so it doesn't matter at all.
