Chapter 845 Prize Pool
Bu Leng~Bu Leng~
A few days later, Lani's puppet clone began to vibrate again.
The beautiful woman squatting on the side practicing magic runes suddenly became excited after hearing this voice. His Highness Lani actually took the initiative to come to her!
Soon the puppet stood up.
"Sorry to have kept you waiting for so long." There was undisguised fatigue in Lani's voice.
"It's okay. You must be busy with something important. You don't have to take care of me like this." The beauty said happily.
The puppet's head lowered slightly. Although the puppet could not make facial expressions, the beauty still felt a strong sense of loss from its actions.
"Are you having any troubles?" the beauty couldn't help asking.
"..." The puppet fell silent. It was hesitating whether it should tell the person in front of it about its distress. After all, they had only known each other for a short time.
Revealing one's true feelings to a stranger rashly might seem immature, but right now Lani really needs to find someone to talk to.
After hesitating for a long time, Lani finally spoke: "Those mortals were infected with strange diseases after being attacked by magic energy. Some crystallization phenomena appeared in their bodies..."
"Indeed." The beauty nodded slightly, and then continued: "The crystallized symptoms will spread and eventually take the lives of those mortals, but there is nothing we can do about it. We did not expect this when we ascended."
The puppet's body trembled when he heard this. "Perhaps it was not unexpected..."
"Ah?" The beauty was a little stunned. What did this mean?
"The bodies of those crystallized people will not decay after death. They can make excellent puppets." The puppet did not respond to the beauty, but continued.
"Hmm... so you made them into puppets."
"Yes, after all, there are still hundreds of thousands of mages here who need to survive. I can no longer help those who died. Maybe making their corpses into puppets can better help those living mages?" The puppet's tone was a little bitter.
The beautiful woman's expression was a little strange, and she always felt something was wrong.
"You are right. The dead are gone, and the living are gone. Although those mortals are pitiful, their bodies can help the living, which is a good use of their resources. You don't have to be sad about it." The beauty comforted.
"Thank you... I feel much better now. I thought you would hate me. After all, you should also be a mortal, and maybe among those people there are your relatives or friends." Lani seemed to be a lot more relaxed.
"Uh..." The beauty was a little embarrassed. In fact, she had little interaction with those mortals, so she could talk without any pain in her waist.
"Let's continue learning magic today. I think you have a very good talent, stronger than most wizards. I think your future achievements will not be weak." Lani said.
"I will study hard! But... I'm special and may not be able to use pyroxene magic at all." The beautiful woman said a little frustrated.
"It doesn't matter. Anyway, pyroxene magic was very crude in the beginning, but after continuous transformation by the wizards, it gradually formed the current system. The road is paved slowly, and I will help you take a different road. Maybe the black blood spell will be stronger." Lani said seriously.
The beauty's expression was a little unnatural. The evil god from outside the domain had said that black blood was an inferior substitute for pyroxene, which meant that black blood spells would be far inferior to pyroxene spells. His Highness Lani was destined to be disappointed.
However, the beauty did not say anything to spoil the fun, and their classes went on as scheduled.
The beauty's learning progress was simply too terrifying. She could see through all kinds of advanced magic knowledge at a glance. Lani liked this student more and more. However, the only thing that made the two of them a little embarrassed was that the beauty always made a mess when she cast a spell.
After the beauty summoned out another large pool of black blood, the entire cave suddenly began to tremble slightly.
"Ah! What happened!" The beauty was a little panicked.
"Stop releasing that stuff! I feel a little sick." A rumbling sound came, scaring the beauty.
"Beast King? Are you awake?" Lani was a little surprised.
"Not fully awake yet, what's the progress now? How long will it take to occupy the moon?"
“We are just getting started and we are facing a lot of troublesome difficulties.”
"Really? That's a pity. I'm not very proficient in magic, otherwise maybe I could be of help." said the Beast King.
"It doesn't matter. You've done enough. Otherwise, we wouldn't even be able to get inside the moon."
"Hmm... those pyroxenes give me indigestion. They are much harder to digest than minerals. If I want to eliminate their influence on me, I can only use time to grind them away."
"But compared to pyroxene, this so-called black blood is even more unbearable to me! So don't put that kind of spell in my body!" The Beast King warned very seriously.
"Sorry! I won't release it again!" The beauty was trembling with fear.
La Ni's puppet scratched its head, looking a little embarrassed.
After giving the warning, the Beast King fell asleep again.
"You don't have to be afraid. The Beast King has no ill intentions. But maybe in the future we can only study theory and not put it into practice." Lani said.
"What is the origin of this Lord Beast King? Why haven't I heard of him before?" the beauty asked curiously.
"He was the king of the Beast Court, and later helped Marika establish the Golden Dynasty..." Lani briefly introduced the Beast King.
The beauty was also a little surprised. She didn't expect that this Beast King was really the one in history.
"After we landed on the moon, we were unable to enter the interior of the moon for a long time. There are a large number of high-grade pyroxene mines inside the moon. These mineral veins combine to form a powerful magical barrier, which makes it difficult for even gods to enter the interior of the moon through magical means."
"In the end, the Beast King had no choice but to activate his devouring talent and chew through the ore vein to send us here. But he also suffered from indigestion because he ate too much pyroxene ore."
"Now that the mineral veins have been destroyed, the moon's magic barrier has been weakened. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to cast any magic inside the moon. All magic would be disrupted and eventually fail."
Listening to Lani's explanation, the beauty suddenly understood something. She had never understood why the higher-ups forced everyone to mine. She thought they were just after pleasure and wanted to use the ore to build a palace!
It seems that she is still too superficial. It turns out that mining is to destroy the natural magic barrier inside the moon, so that spellcasters can have a better living space.
"Your Highness Lani, is it difficult to dig through the mineral vein?" The beauty had no idea about this at all.
"It is indeed very difficult. The Beast King is a powerful high god, and even he finds it difficult to do such a thing. If other gods were to do it, I'm afraid they would not be able to do it at all." Lani shook his head.
"Um...if we let people come to mine, is there a chance that the magic barrier will be destroyed?"
"Ah? How could you come up with such an idea? With human power, it is estimated that even if we dig for tens of thousands of years, there will be no results. After all, the deeper we dig, the more difficulties we will encounter. It is considered very impressive that people can dig 10,000 meters down. And to reach the interior of the moon, this distance must be extended by at least thousands of times."
"..." The beauty looked a little confused. If human mining was useless, why did they let people dig? Was it really for the purpose of building those flashy palaces? The beauty was really unwilling to believe this conclusion.
In the end, she couldn't figure it out so she asked the question.
Lani was stunned for a moment after hearing this. "We didn't ask people to go mining, did we? Ordinary people have a hard time surviving here, if we ask them to mine, wouldn't that be asking them to die? If we ask mages to mine, wouldn't that be even more strange?"
"But... at the beginning we used puppets to mine, and after the puppets were used up, it was indeed the mages who were mining. Don't you know?" The beauty felt that Lani had been staying underground for a long time and no longer understood the situation above.
"Huh?" Lani's tone was quite puzzling when he heard that.
"You...what are you talking about? It will take some time to make all those puppets, and there aren't many puppets available right now!"
The beauty was stunned when she heard this. She suddenly realized something was wrong. So she asked in panic, "Your Highness Lani, what year is it today?"
When Lani told the year, the beauty was stunned because she suddenly realized that she seemed to have gone back to 40 years ago.
At that time, all the mortals had died, and the wizards fell into chaos. No one took care of their lives, and they complained. But it didn't take long for the puppets to appear, and the wizards regained peace.
Looking at the beautiful woman with a shocked expression, Lani suddenly had some ideas.
"What's wrong with you? Are you a time traveler?" Lani asked in surprise. Lani has read a lot of novels, so she immediately thought of this possibility.
"I... I don't know! But this doesn't make sense! There must be something wrong!" The beauty couldn't accept it at all. She even suspected that the Lani in front of her was the man in black robe in disguise.
"Please stop teasing me! If you say those puppets are not finished yet! Then prove it to me! Anyway, I don't believe in time travel or anything like that!" The beautiful woman became excited. She looked at the puppets in front of her with vigilance in her eyes.
"Oh?" The puppet touched its chin and looked at the beauty in front of it with interest.
"I'm really getting more and more interested in you! You're full of mystery! But before that, I think we should build a deeper trust. You don't believe me, and I actually doubt you a little bit. We'd better be honest with each other~"
Lani is very excited now. She has no resistance to mysterious things. Of course, if this is a prank, she can accept it. After all, it makes her boring life interesting.
After thinking about it, she decided to take the beauty to the place where the puppets were made.
"Don't you want me to prove it to you? Then come with me! But the road ahead is a bit difficult, so you'd better bring more food, preferably enough for a month." Lani said.
"..." The beauty was now in a state of confusion, but she also wanted to figure out what was going on. So, she took off her tattered wizard robe and packed a bunch of mushrooms.
The puppet used his head to fill up some clean water, which should be enough if he drank it sparingly.
After everything was prepared, the beauty followed the puppet outside with the magic lamp.
It didn't take long before they arrived near the teeth of the beast king.
Looking at the huge teeth that were dozens of meters high, the beauty finally believed that she had been in the belly of some creature before.
The puppet chanted a spell to put up a magic barrier for the beauty, because once she left here, she would face the erosion of magic energy.
The beauty was wearing very cool clothes at this time, because the wizard robe was used to hold things, so she only had a thin long shirt inside. She didn't think there was anything wrong, but the puppet next to her reacted a little strangely, and it often glanced at the beauty's figure.
The two of them quickly came out of the beast king's body. The beauty looked back at the big lion behind her. At this time, the big lion closed its eyes and looked like a stone statue. It was hard to imagine that this was a living thing. And this guy was really too big! So big that it was frightening.
