Chapter 56 - 56. Magic Time (2)
"I-I've seen magic like that one time in the village I come from, "after saying that, several people looked at her with investigating gazes.
"Xie Lan, do you still remember the old man who was called Mr. Ruo back then?" asked Xue Ning
??"What's wrong with him?" now it was Wan Lie's turn to speak up.
"I've seen him make pills for the villagers using that magic. At that time we just fled the village after being hit by the plague. He gave us pills which he said would automatically work when we were injured, indeed some people were saved by the pills, but since meeting him some people often disappear, and sometimes some of us are found dead without cause," Xue Ning explained at length suddenly became aware of something. Was the cause of some of the incidents in her village the work of the old man? Why did she never think about this weirdness?
"Check, so sneaky," chuckled Fu Xie Lan. No wonder she could not find the cause of the poison that was in the body of the mother and child whom she cared for some time ago in the village. It turned out that the poison was already in the stomach and was neatly wrapped in pills.
"You better come back now, I will catch up after returning from Kanca City," said Fu Xie Lan as if knowing Xue Ning's thoughts.
Everyone who heard Xue Ning and Fu Xie Lan's conversation was silent, even though they didn't understand what the two girls were saying but they knew that it was not something good.
"Very well, sir, thank you for saving me, I'll say goodbye, "said Xue Ning, bowing.
"Be careful, don't hesitate to ask for help if you need it," said Huang Bao. Since earlier he had decided that he would do everything best related to Fu Xie Lan.
Xue Ning then immediately left, walking hastily. She was with one of the students whom Huang Bao asked to take her to the gate of the academy.
Without waiting for the tall girl to disappear from view, everyone refocused on the werewolf's corpse.
What about that Fairy's corpse? Does it also have stitches on its mouth?" asked Elder Bao.
A teacher immediately moved to open the mouth of the corpse and it was true. There are stitches and the same wound.
"It's obvious uncle. Someone planned all this, that person seems to want all the races to hate each other or even kill each other," Fu Xie Lan concluded.
Everyone suddenly fell silent with their thoughts.
"Does this have anything to do with black witchs?" chirped someone the teacher broke the silence.
If indeed that witch came back, then they should have reported to the ruler of this world. What is happening now is no longer an internal problem, but includes the security of Artland World.
"Allright, since the problem has been resolved, send someone to face your Highness, don't forget to tell everything in detail without adding or subtracting," said Elder Bao.
"But Elder, aren't you the best candidate to do it?" said one of the teachers.
"I can't, I have other business," said Elder Bao. He planned to train Fu Xie Lan as fast as possible, he couldn't wait to see how that girl developed.
"Oh yes one more thing, the corpse over there," he added with a finger pointing to someone whose body was completely covered in cloth.
"Make sure bodyguard Bai sees him first." Everyone in the room only nodded according to Elder Bao's orders even though they did not understand why the elder said such a thing. Unlike Elder Chen, he understood what his friend meant. It was all because of the rose mark that was printed on the back of the corpse's neck.
After finding a person with a picture of a rose-like that, he didn't tell anyone and only kept it to himself to prevent the situation from getting messy. Regarding mind magic, no one doesn't know about it, and it is common knowledge that anyone affected by that magic will inevitably cause chaos, and the greatest impact will be a massacre.
The only person he told was Elder Bao, but it was possible that Wan Lie and Fu Xie Lan also found out about it as well because they were both nearby when showing that sign to Huang Bao.
"Okay, I'm going," said goodbye Elder Bao, then walked out of the building, followed by Fu Xie Lan and Wan Lie behind him.
.
.
"You guys come closer," said Elder Bao suddenly stopping his steps. Now they are outside the building.
When the two of them had approached, Huang Bao reached into his pocket and took out a teleportation paper. Tore it up and suddenly the three of them disappeared later.
.
.
.
Huang Bao, Fu Xie Lan, and Wan Lie appeared at a very high place. There were no buildings or creatures in sight. all that was visible was a cloud of mist as far as the eye could see.
"Teacher, where is this?" asked Fu Xie Lan in surprise. Because when she had flown with Wan Lie yesterday she didn't see the building breaking through the clouds at all.
"We are still at the phoenyx academy. To be precise, the Zhoul tower."
"Uh, but .."
"If you don't believe it, you can ask Wan Lie to take you around this tower," Huang Bao said immediately interrupting Fu Xie Lan's words. He understands that whoever hears it will not believe it.
"This tower has protective magic, especially the top and when viewed from the outside, what looks only half. But because of protective magic, people will see the tower is only a few meters high," Huang Bao explained.
Hearing Huang Bao's words, Fu Xie Lan nodded in understanding. while on the other hand, Wan Lie didn't care where they were. What is clear, where his mother goes, he will follow her happily.
"Come on, I haven't seen that old man for a long time either."
The three of them then walked towards the only door that entered their vision.
"The lost has returned."
"What was lost is back."
"Love brings death."
"Horrible death."
The instant Fu Xie Lan fell to the floor, her head suddenly throbbed in pain. That mysterious chant again. A flash of memory that didn't belong to her spun like a broken cassette in her mind. She saw someone wearing a white dress standing majestically in the air, while at the same time she also saw the same person who was in a very dark room, shackled by something like a chain and couldn't move at all.
"Xie Lan, what happened?" panicked Wan Lie. He immediately leveled his position with his mother.
"Why? Why? What happened? Why so suddenly?"
Fu Xie Lan just shook her head in pain.
Huang Bao immediately took the same pill he gave the girl when he was in pain by the river.
"Quick, take this."
Without waiting long, Fu Xie Lan took the pill and swallowed it.
However, the pain she endured did not immediately heal like that time and it succeeded in making Wan Lie even more panicked.
"It's useless to give her a pill, it won't work."
