Twins are subtle in almost all civilizations, and whether they are of the same or opposite sex, male or female, they seem to have a tendency to symbolize some kind of meaning. Therefore, people in some places will regard it as ominous, and in others people will see it as a messenger of the gods or a portentment of destiny.

But either way, the twins almost always have a mystical aspect. And things in this world are always broken in half by people, and the opposing concepts of the sun and the moon, black and white, good and evil, etc., can be the basis for twin spells. Among them, the situation of the homonymous is even more mysterious and mysterious.

Seeing that most of the casters had simply demonstrated their abilities, Cheese no longer forced the old man to tell him what he was capable of. The existence of variables is not entirely bad for any of them, as it serves as a reminder to the self-righteous helmsman to always be wary of the approaching waves.

But the gray robe thought it was okay, others didn't think so, Scar looked at the old man, and then looked at Yuni standing behind the teacher, he tried to smile, but this expression was too stiff to play a kind role, "Is this your retinue? I didn't know there was such a thin dwarf." ”

"No, this is my apprentice. It's just that he's too shallow to get started, and he can't help much. Moreover, he is not a dwarf either. Cheese pulled the apprentice to his side, and Yoni, who was completely exposed to the gaze of several people, immediately tensed. But to the boy's surprise, the casters didn't show too much surprise, but the woman in the twins showed a bit of regret. For them, apprentices, especially those who are not yet able to provide magical assistance, are almost a living shield or a trap tester. Isn't that cruel? But that's how almost every spellcaster comes here, and the mages in the City of Ten Thousand Laws are no exception.

The woman named Lolo saw some signs, and she leaned down and ruffled Yoni's hair to reveal the two bulges underneath, "Bestiality? ”

"Suffering will become food, and the pain of children will be forgotten sooner or later. Because there are more painful things waiting for them in the future. Scar whispered, he didn't seem comfortable with children, but he was clearly a teacher. Maybe the senior instructors in the City of Ten Thousand Laws don't need to teach students of this age?Cheese doesn't know about the organization's training system, and he doesn't want to speculate.

"Let's introduce ourselves here, it's not too early, and it wouldn't be nice if the other two groups started to make our targets alert. Cheese clapped his hands, which was the end of the self-introduction session,

"As the leader of this team, I don't know why you're here, or how much you already know. I wouldn't say it's too late to quit, because any manpower is valuable right now, let alone a spellcaster. But I want you to understand that I called this team to solve the problem, not to die. I will accept sacrifices in order to achieve my goals, but only if necessary. ”

It wasn't a good declaration of battle, but for those present, Cheese's clear point out of the dangers they might encounter and show his style was good enough. The problem is, a declaration is clearly not enough, the team's goal is not to go here or somewhere in the docks, they are going to the river. So, what about the boat that is going to cross the river?

"Looks like you're all done, let's go. There was a startling sound from the fountain, and a blister of anomalous shape gradually rose from the flowing water, and its surface was shaking, and it could only roughly take the form of a human head.

Then, the fountain began to overflow from the pool, and these trickles did not disperse and disappear into the cracks in the ground after flowing down the edges, but accumulated more and more, turning into a three-dimensional shape that was as transparent as freeze and had a certain mass. The head made of water also passed over to it, looking like an ornament on top of a cake.

"Teacher Scar, what is this?" Via was closest to what emerged from the fountain, instinctively trying to avoid the unknown object, but she couldn't move her feet anyway. Her legs were weak, because of fear, close contact with the unknown, and the impact of it had a profound impact on the fear of life. Luckily, Scar immediately pulled his companion away from the thing, and his eyes began to glow with a magical light.

It's just that vigilance is vigilance, and the people present basically can't judge the origin of what appears in front of them. It's not a strange thing, it's the norm. With the exception of a handful of compilers, no one would actually memorize the entire Bestiary, let alone that the contents of the Bestiary would probably be incomplete or even wrong.

Normally, when people encounter an unexpected enemy, they first judge the type of enemy by looking at it, find out how to repel or kill it, and then find out what they are facing before coming out. This involves the accumulation of experience and the breadth of knowledge.

But at this moment, there is an abnormal spellcaster here. The Grey Robe's cultivation concept was very strange from the beginning, their teacher didn't seem to train them for the sake of mastering their skills, nor did they expect to rely on them to develop their power, the original Grey Robe was just crazy, unreasonably compressing the knowledge they possessed into these apprentices. As a result, when the team was in a panic, Cheese behaved unusually calmly, "Can the water of life learn to speak? Can you tell me how that works?"

The water-made thing turned to look at Cheese, and the face on the skull was replaced by a grinning mouth, or hollowness, "It's just that I accidentally drank a magic potion that knows the language." There are no other factors. Therefore you should think, wizard, that I and my people who cannot speak are much wiser than you think. ”

The eaux-de-vie sound like the name of some kind of potion or drink. But they are not like that, and in some places these beings are called ghost waters or water spirits. To put it simply, they are semi-liquid life forms with biological characteristics, which can exist in most of the normal temperature fluids represented by water and change their composition. This change is very much like a chameleon's camouflage, making it impossible to distinguish them from normal liquids in the water. As for their ecology, carnivorous and herbivorous and even scavenging ghost waters exist, which also depends on the environment in which they live.

Given these magical properties, many spellcasters or those who learn about this creature will try to domesticate and raise them, turning them into invisible deadly gatekeepers and invulnerable helpers. This breed is no different from domesticating cats and dogs, and ghost waters have long been mostly considered creatures with low intelligence, as they do not seem to have organs capable of complex thinking.

As for the present special case, perhaps the truth is exactly the opposite of what it says, it is not that it has acquired linguistic ability that it has shown its underestimated intelligence, but that its intelligence has been developed through the study of language and the logic contained in it.

Of course, that's not the point right now. Cheese signaled that the others should not be so vigilant, and the ghost water that appeared on his own initiative was not a difficult opponent, "You just mentioned departure, so may I ask who you are?"

"I'm your boatman, and thankfully, no one knows the current better than I do. ”
