Chapter 1 - Childhood Friend 016 Magical Burst Licaro's heart was filled with mixed feelings: sadness of leaving her mother, desire to live, and fear and dread from her experiences during the day. With these complex emotions, she slowly fell asleep. "Mother!" Licaro saw that the soldiers who escorted her and her mother all fell to the ground, and a big man with a ferocious face was holding a knife against Doris' neck, and blood was already flowing from the blade. Licaro absolutely could not tolerate this kind of thing. She rushed towards the big man like crazy, but missed him and went straight through his body. She realized she was dreaming. The scene in front of her began to fall apart. In just a few seconds, there was only pitch black around Licaro. It was cold and unknown, and there was no light at all. Faced with this deep and boundless darkness, fear spread in Licaro's heart, but it soon turned into grief and unwillingness. Her outburst of emotions had reached a critical point, and such a strong emotional fluctuation forcibly stopped the darkness. The sudden flash of light brought Licaro into a fairyland full of singing birds and fragrant flowers. The whole mountain here was covered with flowers. The warm sunshine sprinkled on Likalo's body, making her no longer feel cold. There were many white clouds and rainbows in the clear blue sky. The sound of birds singing filled her ears, making Likalo feel extremely relaxed.
The comfortable environment made Licaro enter a state of ecstasy. She was immersed in it and couldn't extricate herself. Soon after, a ball of light appeared in front of her. The ball of light revolved around her several times, as if it wanted to take her to a place. So Licaro followed the ball of light and walked forward. In her dream, her injuries had healed, even her clothes were intact. She was in very good physical condition and felt full of strength. The ball of light brought Licaro to a spring. From the outside, it was just an ordinary spring, but Licaro had a strong feeling about it in her heart. Licaro couldn't describe the exact feeling, but she wanted to touch the power of the spring water because it was calling her. She could no longer control her body and seemed to be instinctively moving closer to the spring water. She took off her clothes, shoes and socks, revealing her white and smooth body, then closed her eyes and jumped into the spring. Licaro merged with the spring water in the purest original state, and the dazzling white light bloomed from the spring water until it swept across the entire world. The dream is over. The forest shrouded in darkness suddenly burst into dazzling light, as bright as the sun, making the dark night as bright as day. Then the light swept across a large area, bringing about tremendous changes. The snow on the ground quickly melted and disappeared, and the earth, which had been silent due to winter, regained its vitality. Countless flowers grew out of the soil, and in a blink of an eye, an area of dozens of miles around turned into a sea of flowers. Unlike other places covered with snow and cold winds, coldness does not exist at all in the area where flowers are in full bloom. The environment here is like a warm spring, with the breeze blowing gently through the sea of flowers, creating ripples. Licaro, who was curled up in a tree hole and sleeping soundly, had a comfortable expression on her face. Her injuries had miraculously healed. If you didn't look at her tattered clothes, you really couldn't believe that she had been injured. Licaro opened her eyes only after it was light. She felt that she had a good rest. She woke up feeling refreshed. Even the hunger in her stomach disappeared. Then Licaro found that her injured body had become intact again. Just as she was surprised at what was happening to her, Licaro looked outside the tree hole again and was completely stunned. Where is this? Why are there so many flowers? Isn't it winter now? The scene before her eyes did not show any sign of winter at all. The ground was full of flowers and the weather was warm and comfortable. If the surrounding trees had not remained the same as she remembered yesterday, Licaro would have really thought that she had woken up somewhere else. What on earth happened? Spring came overnight? Licaro was very confused. She recalled that she seemed to have a dream last night, but no matter how hard she tried, she could not remember what the dream was about. It seems like there were a lot of flowers in the dream? Licaro knelt on the ground and put her nose close to a flower and smelled it. The fragrant scent told her that it was a real flower.
But even in spring there wouldn't be such a dense sea of flowers, right? Likalo even walked very carefully, for she was afraid that she would accidentally step on the flowers on the ground and damage them. But before she had taken a few steps, Licaro suddenly fell to the ground powerlessly. This time she felt that her body had completely lost all strength and she couldn't even move a finger. My stomach started to growl and the refreshed feeling I had when I first woke up disappeared, replaced by an extremely strong feeling of fatigue. Although Licaro remained conscious, she had lost control of her body. She was extremely panicked and had no idea what was happening to her. It's as if my whole body has been drained away... She tried hard to get up from the ground, but now, except for her brain, the rest of her body seemed to be out of her control. All around, countless blooming flowers began to wither at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the temperature environment became cold again. Shashasha~ There seemed to be footsteps coming, but Likalo, who was lying on the ground, couldn't even raise her head. She could only listen to the footsteps getting closer and closer, and then she heard a woman's voice: "It's such a small child, tsk tsk..." The fluctuation of magic power last night was quite strong. Even Vidian, who was in the southern wilderness, could feel it. According to her experience, a magic power explosion of this intensity was either the result of tens of thousands of magic crystals gathering together and detonating them, or a person with a magic fountain physique releasing all the magic power in their body. The former usually causes great damage, while the latter has different situations. For example, this little girl, the magic power she released actually changed the surrounding terrain. When the magic power in the air reaches a certain concentration, it will begin to dissipate. This is the balance brought about by the laws of this world. When most of the magic power dissipates, the flowers will wither. It's not a big deal that the flowers are withering, but the problem is that the little girl lying on the ground should have had her magic reserves drained by the magic outburst last night, which means something very bad. For people with this physique, magic power is as important as life. Even if they consume magic power, at least a small amount of magic power should be left in the body. If a large amount of magic power is overdrawn in a short period of time, or even used up to exhaustion, it is likely to put life in danger or leave serious sequelae. Vitian felt the residual magic in the air and found that its structure was very unstable. This was probably the result of the little girl's magic going out of control after experiencing something. The little girl was lying on the ground, unable to move, but she seemed to still have vital signs. Vitien walked over to her and turned her body over, then became a little surprised. Isn't this the little girl who took a photo with Eloline in her photo crystal? PS: I thought about it before posting, I think this shouldn’t be considered a chapter-breaking dog… Chapter 1 - Childhood Friend 017 Rescue Licaro didn't recognize the woman in front of her, but no matter whether she was a good person or a bad person, Licaro wanted to ask her for help, because all she had to do now was to survive. However, the words she wanted to say could not come out, and only turned into a slight whimper. Now she doesn't even have the strength to speak. "Looks like he's still alive." Vittian and Licaro looked at each other, and she could see a strong desire to survive in Licaro's eyes. I don’t know what this little girl has been through, but since she’s Eloline’s friend, let her mind her own business. Vitian squatted beside Licaro, reached out and gently stroked her forehead, and comforted her in human language: "Don't worry, sister will take you to a safe place." After hearing these words, Licaro finally stopped holding on. Her consciousness began to slowly sink, and then she fell into a deep sleep.
After picking up Licaro, Vitian sighed and wondered how long it had been since she last saw a human. She closed her eyes, and a faint light enveloped her and Likalo's bodies, then turned into a ball of light and flew into the sky, flying towards the southern wilderness like a meteor. At this time in the southern wilderness, Elolin finished hunting, and after a hearty meal, she secretly flew to the border of the southern wilderness and observed the border fortresses of several empires in a very secluded place. The previous portal teleported away many monsters in the wilderness, so I heard from Vitian that this year's monster tide might be delayed or disappear. But from the news from Vitian's friends, it can be concluded that the monster tide actually appeared in another form, and it is more troublesome than before. With her good eyesight, Eloline could see their current movements clearly without the human fortress noticing her. She could see many soldiers gathering and marching north, apparently to support the interior of the empire. According to what I learned from Vitian, the teleportation array must be opened in both directions at the same time, but for some reason, teleportation arrays suddenly appeared in all major cities within the empire this time, and countless monsters emerged from them and caused destruction. In Vitian's words, a one-way teleportation array can only perform random teleportation. This situation is the first time it has occurred. Perhaps there has been a new breakthrough in magic teleportation. After all, magic research is still constantly improving. However, it is no longer important how the magic circle was built. The mainstream opinion now unanimously believes that it was the work of the Five-Nation Alliance. Their military strength was not enough to compete with the Empire, so they used Warcraft to consume the Empire's power. Eloline was very curious about how powerful Vitien's friend was, as he could always deliver the latest news to the southern wilderness so quickly. The empire suffered heavy losses in the monster attacks. Although many cities have basically eliminated the invading monsters after a hard battle, some cities are still struggling to survive, and some unlucky cities have even been completely occupied by monsters. The invading monsters are of various kinds, including some super-large monsters that usually require the entire elite force of the Wilderness Legion to be dispatched to conquer. These monsters wreak havoc in the empire, causing considerable damage to the empire. Now it has come to the point where part of the Wilderness Legion has to be recalled, which is enough to show the serious situation in various provinces within the empire. Only the northern region has not been attacked by monsters. Currently, the Northern Legion can still hold the city, but after the interior of the empire fell into chaos, it is impossible to guarantee material and manpower support to the north in a short period of time. In addition, the snowstorm caused by the harsh climate in the north has put the Northern Legion under great pressure. Elorin was very worried about Licaro, but there was really nothing she could do. Even if she didn't care about being discovered and forced to fly to Edfallon, she might not be able to see Licaro, because she heard that residents of many cities began to flee because of the monster attacks, and Licaro might have also escaped from Edfallon. However, Eloline had forgotten one thing, that is, there was a witch named Xia living in the forest. Thinking of how Xia had released blessings on Licaro and set up barriers to protect her safety, Eloline felt that if Licaro really encountered danger, Xia should go to help her, right? Although Xia did not explicitly state her relationship with Licaro, she definitely cared about Licaro. At this time, the infantry of the Wilderness Legion had already walked a long way, and behind them, moving slower, were large attack machines pulled by many horses and mules. Although Eloline didn't recognize what it was, its appearance was somewhat similar to machines such as crossbows on Earth, so it should be a similar thing. According to Vitian, even those small crossbows can easily penetrate Eloline's body, because the ammunition they use is specially designed for armor-piercing and even has armor-piercing enchantments. Although Eloline had never seen this type of ballista fired, she would never want to try out its power herself... There is nothing to see now, it's time to go back to Vitien. Now Eloline is learning dragon magic under Vitien's instruction. What she has to do every day is to feel the existence of magic as much as possible until she can materialize it. Vitian said that only after Eloline could materialize the magic elements to be visible to the naked eye, could she mobilize the power of the magic elements to use magic. Moreover, due to the special system of dragon language magic, Eloline must learn how to inject the power of magic into the language she speaks. This left Eloline completely confused. She had no idea how to materialize magic, let alone how to inject magic into language. That's why Vitien told her to take it slow, as it would be a very long learning process. Eloline flapped her wings and flew towards Vitien's residence, which was also her "home" during this period. However, due to her body size, she had been sleeping in the open space outside the house. At this time, Vittian carried Licaro to the second floor. Licaro had not woken up yet. Vittian had just injected some magic power into her body. At least her life would not be in danger anymore, but her body would become very weak and it would take time to recover. boom! Vitian felt the house tremble and she frowned immediately. After taking off Licaro's shoes and putting her on the bed, Vitian came out of the house with a dark face. Seeing Vitian coming out, Eloline said, "I was just at the border fortress... woo!"
She was hit on the head by Vitien. You know, the power released by Vitien's fist is quite terrifying. Eloline felt very aggrieved and didn't know what she had done wrong to be hit on the head. "I've told you so many times to be gentle when you land. I can feel it clearly in the room." "Oh...I'm sorry." Eloline realized that she had indeed forgotten about this matter, but the problem was that her body was very heavy, so how could she land as gently as a feather? This makes Eloline very envious of Vitian who can transform. Only when she is no longer human does she understand the advantages of having a small body. PS: Because we agreed to give the last update to friends at 12 o'clock, the next chapter will be updated at 12 o'clock today QAQ, you can wait until tomorrow morning to read it (no one will be awake at 12 o'clock, right) Chapter 1 - Childhood Friend 018 The Magic of Language "I have something to tell you. I rescued a child." Vitian said in a calm tone something that surprised Eloline greatly. "Huh? You would actually do such a thing?" In Eloline's impression, Vitian was not a kind-hearted guy. In response to Eloline's reaction, Vitian spread his hands and said, "I never meddle in other people's business, but I helped her because of you." "What do you mean?" "Stupid dragon, haven't you realized yet? I saved someone you know." "..." It was someone I knew, and he was still a child... "Could it be!?" "Keep your voice down. Although her life is not in danger, it's best not to disturb her rest." Hearing Vitien say this, Eloline immediately lowered her voice: "Can I see her?" "Sure. She's in the north room on the second floor. You can just look through the window." So Eloline came to the place Vitien said. She raised her head and could just look through the second-floor window. The little blonde girl on the bed in the room was really Licaro. Back in front of Vitian, Eloline wants to know what happened. "We'll have to wait until she wakes up to find out. I guess she was trying to escape from the monster attack. It seems she got separated from the people who were escorting her." Nobles should all have guards, and such a young child being alone in the forest must have encountered some accident, which can be seen from Licaro's tattered clothes. Then Vitian carefully explained the concepts of the magic spring and magic burst. This time she told Eloline all the knowledge she knew. Eloline was very surprised. Vitien had said before that people with the magic fountain physique were very rare, but she didn't expect that Licaro was one of them. After knowing that the magic power in Licaro's body had exploded, Eloline was very worried. Although Licaro was no longer in danger of life thanks to Vitien's rescue, it would be troublesome if she had any sequelae.
"Under what circumstances would an explosion of magic usually occur?" Elorin asked. "The magical explosion that occurred in the little girl was passive, usually caused by experiencing a strong emotional fluctuation, such as pain or despair." "..." Just listening to Vitien's explanation, Eloline felt very uncomfortable. When she was with Likalo, she could see that Likalo was a very strong child. Things that could make Likalo feel pain or despair...
