"Moon?" Selena frowned, slowly shifting her gaze from the tarot to Mrs. Acker. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"The moon represents deception and temptation. Lady Aker turned the golden toad ring on her hand as she stared at the two weapons I had brought back from the Island of the Demigods that I had placed on the tiled floor.

"What does this mean?" Lin An casually helped him with the frame of his black glasses, and even the tone of his question was so calm.

"Right now we think the biggest problem is beating Alastair, but the tarot cards tell us there's actually something more important. We are being seduced or deceived by this. Mrs. Aker now placed her ring on the table, and buried her face in her hands. "Go and rest first, it's safe in our house. I'll be in touch with your instructor at the school. Selena, take Li Han to the empty room on the third floor. ”

"I'll bring dinner to your room, it's a delicious steak. Mrs. Mills smiled warmly at us.

"It's absolutely delicious!" Wang Yimin added next to him. His face changed a little, after all, in such a safe room. As far as I'm concerned, I feel like this is the first time in a few days that I've been able to stay at ease for a while, because there are so many crazy things.

I followed Selena to the third floor, with a circular living room in the middle. The wooden floor was printed with the same pattern of the sun and moon as on the round table, and of course the two toads were indispensable. I've actually been wondering if these two toads are the Selena family, or the symbol of the so-called wizarding group. A glass chandelier hangs from the top. There are three rooms around, each with a transparent vase at the door, which contains earth but no plants. The witch's home must be a little peculiar.

"You live in the room on the right, and the two of them live in those two rooms. The toilet is in Lin An's house, which is the one on the left. My mom and I would sleep downstairs. There's a silver bell next to your bed, just shake it for anything you need, and Mrs. Mills will be there to help. By the way, don't make too much noise at night, my sister is in high school and must get a good night's sleep. Selena said as she ran her hair through it.

"You still have a sister?" I said casually.

"Of course, her name is Jenny Arc. She's been reading in the house just now, and it's tomorrow Monday, so she has to get some sleep. However, her mother considered whether to suspend her classes to ensure her safety. ”

"Hey, if anyone wants to fight the landlord tonight, I have playing cards. "I can see that Wang Yimin is in a much better spirit, but he can only barely squeeze out a smile, I'm not sure if it's a good idea, tonight I want to come up with a brilliant plan to help us win against Alastair. An impossible task.

I entered the room, which was simply furnished, a folding bed, a bookshelf full of Chinese and English books, and a desk with an Apple computer on it. To be honest, this folding bed is a bit out of place in this room covered in green wallpaper. It looks like this room is supposed to be their study, which was temporarily prepared for me.

The kitten-shaped clock on the table was ticking until 12 o'clock, but I couldn't sleep as I looked straight at the ceiling. Looking back on the crazy events of the past few days I feel like I had a dream, and I desperately want to wake up from this dream and go back to my boring life. In fact, as a child, I often fantasized about being the hero of anime saving the world or having a magical experience like Alice in Wonderland, just trying to escape the boredom of real life. But now after all these events, I find it hard to accept, probably because I suddenly realized that our lives are too fragile. As a child, it was just some beautiful fantasies.

I have to say that Mrs. Mills's steak is very delicious, but as someone who hardly visits Western restaurants, I can't taste what this steak tastes like. In the last two hours, I have indeed thought of some ways to deal with Alastair, but then I have dismissed these ridiculously naïve ideas. Even if I knew that I had the blood of Zeus in my veins, and so on, wouldn't I have the blood of a god in my body?Madame Acre could use my blood to communicate with my father, and I couldn't help but be impressed by my own wit.

I got up quickly, and walked gently to the second floor, expecting that Mrs. Acker had not yet slept. Sure enough, she was sitting at a round table looking at a book made of thick brown paper, and the dark red light condensed around her.

"Come and sit down. "I was about to knock lightly on the door when I was startled by Mrs. Acke's reminder. She was still looking at her book.

"Lady Ake, I'm a demigod, can my blood be used for spiritual communication? I pulled out a chair and sat directly in front of Mrs. Acker.

"No," she looked up at me now with a smile, still the same stiff smile. "Only the true blood of God will do. ”

"Oh, forget it, then. "I was immediately disappointed, and it seemed that the blood of Alastair was the right thing to do. I wondered if I could get some from Mr. Okanos, but he wasn't a god anymore.

"But I'm curious about the origin of your snake staff, how did you get it? It's like a key to a space, and if you leave him, you'll be locked in a space. She stared straight at me.

I turned my head to look at the two weapons on the ground, and suddenly I saw that only the staff of the snake was left. "Do you know where that shield is?" I decided to address the issue of weapons first, although the answer was not the same.

Mrs. Acker also looked at the ground, with a nervous expression. "Someone must have taken it. She shook the bell on the table vigorously. I thought of the strange way Yi Min stared at the shield during the day, and I felt a little bad, and my gut told me that I should go to his house to have a look.

I hurried upstairs, and Mrs. Acker followed. The door wasn't closed, and we went in and were stunned by what we saw. Yi Min sat straight on the edge of the bed motionless, his hands in front of his face, and his palms rushed out to block something. His eyes were as wide as goldfish's, his pupils had lost their light, and his mouth was open as if he wanted to shout something but couldn't make a sound. The whole face exuded intense fear, as if it had seen some kind of monster. I could even see the trembling hairs all over his body, as if his whole being had been stopped. I noticed that the golden toad ring on his hand had turned the color of stone gray. The shield was slammed upside down on the ground, and Mrs. Acke hurried over to see that there were only two hollows left in the part where the eyes had been inlay.

My heart instantly cooled half, could it be..

"Medusa, this kid must have seen Medusa, and then he was petrified, and the ring protected him, and he will be fine after a while. ”

"Medusa, how could she ......," I shouted as I looked at Mrs. Acre in horror. At this point, my heart was so nervous that I didn't want to test my conjectures. Then I noticed that Lin An and Selena were already standing at the door, and it seemed that they had not fallen asleep just now.

Suddenly there was a scream from downstairs, and we looked at each other, and Selena shouted, "Jenny!"

We raced to the second floor, where Selena banged frantically on the locked door, shouting her sister's name all the time. I didn't know what I was supposed to do, my brain was in chaos. A hand pushed me away, Lin An flashed in front of me, kicked hard at the door, and I followed with another kick, and the door was kicked open. I went in and took a look, and I couldn't help but gasp.

Jenny was lying on the bed, her hands in front of her face like Yimin, but her face was facing to the side, her eyes were tightly closed, and her mouth kept screaming. The man in front of her, or rather a monster, was opening its mouth wide open to face Jenny, fangs dripping with green liquid. A bunch of colorful snakes were rooted above her head, some of them wriggling, opening their mouths and making piercing screams, while others pierced their fangs into Jenny's arms, biting at her skin. This scene made my stomach churn. My body was numb and my hands were shaking. Even after going through the Sirens and Alastair, I couldn't look directly at this disgusting monster.

"No, let her go, you bastard!" Selena cried and shouted at Medusa, and as she was about to rush over, Lin An hugged her. Medusa suddenly turned her face to look at us.

"Close your eyes!" Lin An suddenly ordered. I immediately obeyed and closed my eyes and turned my face away. If I'm not mistaken, that face just now was clearly Mrs. Mills. But I couldn't think much more, the hissing sound was approaching, my heart was beating harder, and my legs seemed to be filled with tons of lead and couldn't move.

"Stay away from them. Mrs. Acker's voice rang out. I felt a wind run across my face, accompanied by a scream. Then, there was a trotting sound.

"Alright, open your eyes, kids. "I cautiously opened my eyes and saw a few half-cut snakes on the ground, and the feeling of nausea came over me again. Selena hurriedly ran to Jenny's side, hugged her distressedly, and the two of them cried loudly together. I also relieved my nervousness.

"It can't be Mrs. Mills!" Lin An asked the question in my mind.

"Yes, Medusa should have borrowed her body to resurrect. ”

"Can you use some magic to deal with her?" I asked, gasping.

"Mills was under a protective charm from us, and spell magic doesn't work against her right now. She ran to the first floor and had to lead her to the third floor, where I could trap her. We must cut off her head. ”

"With ring protection, it's okay to be petrified, right? I'm going to bring her up. Lin An's tone was very firm, but he could hear that his voice was still a little trembling.

I clutched a golden sword that Mrs. Acker had given me in my hand, closed my eyes, held my breath, and quietly half-crouched behind Mrs. Acker. The plan was this, Lin An lured Medusa up, Lady Ake cast a spell to trap her, and I took the opportunity to cut off her head with my sword. My heart was in my throat again, and I couldn't believe I was dealing with such a gorgon. Sweat broke out in my palms, and my blank brain kept begging my father to help me again.

Suddenly there was a loud commotion downstairs, and I stared with bated breath with my eyes wide open. Lin An ran up and stood on top of the toad. "Come here, monster. ”

Medusa jumped up quickly, very fast, her dry hands immediately grabbed Lin An's arm, the snake on her head pierced the fangs into his neck, Medusa opened her mouth and screamed, her eyes flashed blue. Lin An's body began to stop moving, starting from his head and gradually turning into a rock, and then quickly spreading throughout his body. I covered my mouth with one hand. The golden toad in his hand emitted light, and from the part of the golden toad, his whole body gradually returned to its normal color, and instead of the ring, it turned into stone. Medusa threw him to the ground and was about to attack us, when a barbed rattan suddenly stretched out from the transparent vase in front of the doors of the three surrounding rooms, and she began to twist her body in pain.

Receiving Madame Accker's instructions, I ran up to Medusa with my golden sword, closed my eyes and swung forward. The inertia of the slash caused the sword to slip out of my hand and fall to the top of the stairs, and Medusa broke free of the rattan and lunged at me. I closed my eyes again and froze in place.

I felt many snakes roaming around my neck, my body was trembling all the time, Medusa seemed to have a special attraction, and the more I told myself not to open my eyes, the more I wanted to open them and look her eyes directly. The temptation grew stronger and stronger, and I couldn't help but open my eyes.

Am I turned to stone?

A figure passed in front of me, and Mrs. Acker pushed Medusa against the wall, "Go and pick up the sword." She shouted. Hearing the instructions, I hurriedly got up and ran towards the staircase, only to find Mrs. Aker petrified as well. I felt a powerful pillar collapse in my heart, and my body immediately went limp. Everything seems to be blurry in front of me...

Be strong!

A familiar voice echoed, yes, and my great father Zeus was supporting me. I felt a powerful electric current accumulating in my body, Medusa had grabbed my arms, and I narrowed my eyes and pushed the current out with all my might. With Medusa's terrible screams, she then collapsed.

I picked up the sword and slashed at her neck.
