"So you've found it." Lance said softly.

Dora nodded softly, and said nothing. She let go of her hand, turned around and left the platform, and walked into the shadow of the palace.

Lance leaned against the railing alone, feeling the strong mountain wind, and suddenly felt a little sad.

Many dusty memories gradually flipped up from under the moss of time. The howling mountain wind in front of you is like the sea breeze that has not changed over the years on the cliff. It always blew in the middle of the night, and was sad and desolate.

The memory of the original owner of this body has long been integrated with Lance. Although the emotion has always been very faint, and it is usually consciously suppressed by Lance. But at this time, the longing for the castle hanging on the cliff has emerged unstoppablely in Lance's heart.

He stood there in a daze, closing his eyes.

The howling mountain wind seemed to have a little fishy smell unique to the sea breeze. Before he knew it, it had been more than half a year since he left the Fengshou Castle and entered the wizard world. Although as a time traveler, he had no worries about that place, his body's memory was still strongly affecting his emotions.

He recalled the shadows that day when he left the castle, standing in front of the city gate, and suddenly had a very strong desire.

He wants to go back and take a look.

...

This is a dark woodland, with two scarlet moons hanging above the woodland, and the moonlight is also red. They are unscrupulously scattered among the woodland, as if they have covered the trees on the ground with a layer of bloody cloak.

A barefoot girl walked alone in a slightly muddy woodland.

She was wearing a white dress and her expression was a little excited.

She hurriedly traveled through the periphery of the woodland and came to the central area.

There, there is a small lake.

"Good evening, Heimos." The girl's voice seemed like a pleasant wind chime.

A huge human face appeared in the lake water. A slight wave of waves was stirred up on the lake, and the human face said seriously: "Good evening, Miss Erin."

"This time, I got the black peas. You should be able to satisfy my wish, right?" the girl asked with a look of hope.

Hurry!

The sound of water sounded from the lake surface, and the human face suddenly broke out from the lake surface. It rotated ninety degrees and was suspended in the air on the lake surface.

"I doubt, do you really understand what you are doing?" Himos said in a deep voice: "The black pea in your hand is something that the entire Takaren witch dreams of; it is also a reward for your hard work from [Mirror City] to pass the level for more than a month. Even if Lord Night Demon appreciates your talent, you should not waste the precious items she gave me so much."

"Of course I understand what I'm doing." Erin said happily: "This black pea is indeed very important, but it's okay to me to give it to you. As long as you let me take a look..."

"I really can't do anything to you." Himes showed a helpless look and said hesitantly: "I can agree to your request, but can you change the time?"

"Ah? Why?" Erin said a little unhappy: "I ran out secretly now. If the teacher knew about it, she would definitely catch me back. I have no other time. Besides, why change the time?"

Himes hesitated a little.

Erin snorted and bounced out the black peas in her hand and landed in the deep lake.

"Okay, I understand." Himes's face gradually sank into the lake.

The next second, the entire lake began to tremble slightly, and the lake surface seemed to have turned into a pitch-black mirror.

Soon, it seemed like a huge curtain was pulled away from the mirror, and a clear picture was completely displayed on the lake.

The girl stood on tiptoe and looked into the lake with some anticipation.

Just the next second, her face turned pale!

I saw the open water reflecting the images of another world.

It was a full moon shining on a white mountain city, and at the top of the mountain city was a palace.

On the platform outside the palace, a man and a woman leaned against the railings. The latter hugged the former tightly.

"Brother Lance..."

The girl subconsciously bit her lips, but her body trembled slightly.

The two people in the picture cling to each other and look extremely intimate.

She stood there in a daze, for a long time. She smiled reluctantly: "Thank you, Heymoth. I, it's time for me to leave..."

After saying that, she trotted without looking back and left the small lake among the woods.

While running, she seemed to be wiping something at the corner of her eyes with her hands.

After a while, the picture on the lake suddenly changed, and the scene between men and women disappeared without a trace, becoming the usual lake water.

Himes's face reappeared. His voice was very low: "This is the first time I did such a thing."

“Good job.”

A cold-faced woman slowly walked out from behind a big tree.

"I don't like this." Himes muttered: "This is a deception."

"This is not a deception. I just let you freeze the time at the time before tonight." The woman said, spreading her hands.

She was wearing a loose purple robe, her white skin was exposed outside, and her fair feet were trampled on the muddy land without any dust.

On her ankles, she was wearing a silver bracelet, and six bells hung on the edge of the bracelet, and when she walked, she made a crisp sound.

"What do you mean?" A hint of confusion appeared on Himes' face.

"Don't pretend to be stupid, my apprentice's black pea!" The woman sneered: "You gave her a fake picture, and still want to embezzle the treasures she had worked so hard to get?"

"Mr. Night Demon, you are one of the twelve witches of Takaren, how can you be so shameless?" Himos was angry: "It was you who asked me to deceive her!"

"I'm for her good." The woman put her hands on her hips and said unquestionably: "The talent she has been sleeping on for too long. If she is delayed by other things, it would be a waste. This little girl, Erin, is someone who can inherit my position. I don't want her to keep her mind on a man."

"But the transaction has happened!" Himes emphasized: "This black pea is already my private property..."

"Private property?" The woman named Ye Demon raised her eyebrows: "Do you want to fight?"

Himes blushed and suddenly the water vapor on the lake surface suddenly shattered, turning into thousands of drops of water, falling into the lake water.

After a while, a muffled groan sounded and a black dot flew up from the lake.

The woman in purple took the black pea with satisfaction and turned around and left.

While walking, she murmured to herself: "What excuse should I use to return this black pea to the little girl?"

"Well, let the little girl from the Roland family challenge her tomorrow - that little fool of course can't beat my Night Demon's apprentice, so I have an excuse to reward her with the Black Pea again."

At this moment, she suddenly stopped and frowned and said to herself:

"That guy just now is the guy the little girl likes, right? The place where this guy is is a bit weird... It seems that he is not very far from Takaren."

"Do you want to just run over and kill him to prevent future troubles?"

...

Nights without sleep seem particularly long, but wizards rarely waste precious time.

After a slight blow on the platform for a while, Lance quickly returned to his room.

A piece of white crystal was placed on the edge of the top of the closet, and the whole room was as bright as day.

Lance closed the door and sat on the table.

He thought for a while and took out a small black cube from the Arcane Ring.

This cube was given to him by the four-legged snake, and it is said that Caterina asked him to hand over it. Because he had been running around the road before, he had never had the chance to open it and take a look.

"I don't know what she will give me." Lance was a little curious.

He gently played with the black cube. This thing was very small and could not seem to hide too many things. However, for space storage equipment, appearance was not the only basis for judgment.

The four-legged snake did not talk about how to use the cube. Lance could only explore it himself.

He tried to input some mental power or magic power, but he did not react at all.

He flipped through each side of the cube, as if he was fiddling with a Rubik's Cube.

In the process, he made some new discoveries.

"There is a different symbol engraved on the lower right corner of each side."

Lance's heart moved, and he took out a pen and drew the symbols on each side on the white paper.

Each symbol was very uniform and symmetrical. Lance thought about it and folded the white paper in half along the line of symmetry of one of the symbols.

Soon, a letter belonging to the Gulun language system appeared in front of Lance.

"It turned out to be a very simple puzzle game." Lance smiled slightly.

According to the previous method, he folded the remaining five symbols in half, and finally got a total of six Gulun letters. These six letters combined together can only form one word, meaning [Soul of Witchcraft].

"The essence of witchcraft?"

Lance looked at the word written on the white paper and tried to chant it softly with the pronunciation of Gulun.

The black cube immediately began to shake slightly.

Soon, the cube began to expand from the inside to the outside, and the sound of clicking and clicking continues to sound.

In the blink of an eye, the small cube turned into a small box with a three-foot-long edge.

This is the space folding technique.

Lance opened the small box while thinking.

There are four books stacked on the right side of the box, and three bottles of potions and two thin booklets on the left.

When Lance saw the four books on the right, his breathing became rapid.

These four books are the remaining four of the eight necessary knowledge that Lance has in the process of advancing to a second-level wizard!

"She saw it." Lance's first reaction was that Katerina had guessed that she was on the verge of promotion, so she sent a four-legged snake to hand over these things to herself.

But he immediately realized that this speculation might also be an overreaction.

After all, according to the four-legged snake, Katerina will be trapped in a space-time cave for thirty years. She may be worried that she would reach the threshold of promotion in these thirty years, but she would not be able to obtain effective knowledge, so she gave this witchcraft essence to Lance in advance.

But no matter what, Lance was full of gratitude for this witchcraft essence.

"The second-level wizard, this is the only thing I can do!"
