Chapter 281: Ghosts
The ruins lay in the middle of an island
"It's like a school. ”
Lin Lei and Xiwei dig for treasure in the ruins and find some lost magic books.
What appeared to have been a magic school had been transformed into ruins, with massive stone pillars dotted across isolated islands and barren ruins.
"Do you know here?"
Lin Lei asked Xiwei, such a big school would definitely be famous, as a primordial elf, she might know some information.
"I don't know. ”
Unfortunately, Shelvie doesn't know much about the academy that elves established in the world five hundred years ago.
"Little master, let's go, don't dig for treasure!"
Xiwei was a little afraid of this ruin, the wind blowing from the sea blew away the ashes of the ruin, but it couldn't blow away the strange smell here.
"It's a little weird here, we ......"
The two of them walked through a ruin, and at that moment, Xiwei's breathing seemed to stand still—two white ghosts appeared in front of them.
The transparent ghosts floated half a meter above the ground as if they had no weight, and their eyes had no eyeballs, but they could be seen from the long ears that they were elves when they were alive.
"Babble!"
Sylvie couldn't help but scream.
"Babble!"
In order to match the atmosphere, Lin Lei also shouted.
“...... You're afraid of ghosts. ”
After a long time, Lin Lei said to Xi Wei: "What is there to be afraid of?"
"Little host. ”
Xiwei looked back at him, her eyes flashing with panic: "You forgot, our primordial elves don't have ghosts!"
Lin Lei was stunned, what he said was right, the primordial elf was an eternal, how could he become a ghost.
"Then they are ......"
Lin Lei turned his head to look at the ghost, and then in the next second, Xiwei's scream rang out again: "Ahhhhhhhh
"They've got eyes!"
At some point, red eyes appeared on the faces of the two ghosts, staring straight at the two of them.
"Honey, there are guests!"
The ghosts make noises.
"Little girl, we're sleeping, and you've woken us up!"
The language they speak is Elvish—and they are clear-willed.
A ghost suddenly noticed something shiny in Lin Lei's hair, it was stunned, and suddenly shouted: "Honey, look, that's a sound crystal!"
"Sound crystals?"
The male elf looked at Lin Lei carefully and was also startled.
"Mom, it's really a crystal, how can you have a queen's crystal?"
He looked at Lin Lei in surprise.
"I see, master. ”
At this time, Crystal suddenly remembered something and took the initiative to say, "This is the Falas Academy of Magic. ”
"You've been here?"
Lin Lei asked.
"I've been here. Crystal replied that it had been here with the Queen.
Originally a center of magical knowledge for the primordial elves, the Faras Academy was later enraged by the queen, who cast a curse - and the elves here became ghosts, haunting the place forever.
"By the way, I'm the one who unleashed the curse and turned this place into ruins. ”
Crystal was a little smug.
"Now is not the time to be complacent!"
Xiwei screamed, she had been afraid of ghosts, and now that she knew that these ghosts were enemies, she was even more frightened to the point that her legs were weak.
"Little master, let's get out of here quickly!"
She took Lin Lei's hand, Xi Wei had a strong fear of this kind of thing that was dead and still in the world.
"Don't worry, they can't beat me. ”
Lin Lei said that these two ghosts should be very powerful elves before they were alive, and even after becoming ghosts, they still exude great power - but they can't beat him.
And there was no hostility on these two elves.
"We have no ill will and don't want to fight. ”
"You have the Sound Crystal, that's our friend. ”
The two ghosts circled around Lin Lei, and when they flew by, there would be a wave of cold air blowing around them, making Xiwei shiver with fear.
"How did you offend the Queen?"
Lin Lei continued to ask.
The female elf paused: "This is a long story, the queen once fostered a pet in our academy - because she didn't pay attention, the dean ate the pet and ate it!"
She opened her blood-red mouth, causing Sylvie to scream again.
Lin Lei was stunned: "That's it?"
To hide it, the dean found a new pet. The elf continued: "As a result, he ate it again. ”
“......”
Why is your school director so greedy!
"When we were trying to find another pet to replace him, the queen suddenly arrived, and the dean was very panicked, so he used the Transfiguration on himself!"
The elf turned her husband into a lobster.
“...... Then, the dean was spotted by the queen, who turned everyone into ghosts. ”
The elf changed her husband back.
"That's it......" sighed the elf, "we can only wander around this island, and once we leave, we will disappear - everyone else has run out to kill themselves because they can't stand it, and now there are only two of us left here." ”
"You're so patient. ”
After being a ghost for 500 years, that's boring enough.
"We can't die, we have to meet our children. ”
"Before coming here to be a teacher, we left the kid alone in the Skyrim Continent, and I don't know how he is doing. ”
"You're the new owner of the crystal, can you help us unravel the curse?"
The ghosts looked at Lin Lei hopefully—seeing him as someone who could lift the curse.
"Little master?"
Xiwei looked at Lin Lei, these two ghosts stayed for the sake of the child, and it was pitiful: "Can you lift their curse?"
She hoped that after the curse was lifted, the two ghosts could turn back into elves.
"This ...... I'm not sure ......"
Lin Lei asked Crystal: "Is this curse easy to lift?"
"With the master's current strength, I can't do it. ”
Crystal immediately denied it.
"The Queen's curse is so strong that even a true god may not be able to lift it. ”
This did not surprise Lin Lei at all, that queen was the most powerful person on the planet, and the curse she released was naturally not so easy to lift.
"But master, you can unlock part of this curse. ”
Crystal continued, "You can take these two people out of this isolated island. ”
"Leave!?"
"That's enough, that's enough!"
The ghost couple was very excited, they had never had the luxury of regaining their original lives, as long as they could get out of here, then they could go to find their children.
"You take us to the kid, and we can teach you magic. ”
"We were archmages when we were alive!"
Lin Lei thought about it carefully, he wouldn't go to the Skyrim Continent now, but he would definitely go in the future - it would be no problem to help these two guys.
"Okay!"
He decided to promise them.
Maybe they've got the knowledge the forest elves need. [.]
