"Did you really just come to Gensokyo?"
Alice didn't think much about it, that's what she thought. If an ordinary person in the world took the initiative to enter the magic forest for any reason, they would usually not go too deep into the forest.
Although it is a short distance from the human village to the magical forest, the environment in the forest is the worst for humans.
Whether it’s collecting herbs or picking mushrooms, people will just try to stay around the outside. And even the few inexperienced people, or those who inevitably have some accidents, seem to be trapped in the hallucinations created by mushrooms, and go deeper and deeper in circles, generally have something in common. .
It's just...this person doesn't have it.
The blonde girl's eyes turned and briefly paused on the young man in white clothes and black hair opposite -
This person is obviously an ordinary human being, but he does not look like the villagers in a human village. His clothes are not stained by moisture, leaves, etc. in the forest, nor are they scratched by branches or thorns. His mental state seemed to be normal and he did not appear panicked.
He wasn't a human being, and he probably didn't move around much in the forest.
Then it is very likely that he was an outsider who had just encountered Kamigakure and entered Gensokyo in a daze. He probably appeared in the depths of the magic forest as soon as he entered, near his home, so he was discovered by himself before he could figure out the situation. …Alice thinks that’s what it’s all about.
She looked away and said in a calm tone: "Then let me take you out of this forest now. It's not too early now. There will be a lot of trouble after nightfall, and the forest will be more dangerous at night."
——This person's luck is a bit bad. Even if ordinary people are confused and disappear, they will directly appear in the human world and other places...
——This kind of luck to appear directly in the depths of the magic forest is really amazing.
"Thank you so much...I wonder what I call the girl?"
The young man in white clothes and black hair opposite him suddenly showed a smile, his temperament was like a fresh mountain mist, naturally, returning to his original nature. He accepted the kindness and at the same time wanted to find out the identity of the magician.
"Just call me Alice...come with me, I'll take you out now."
The blonde girl replied calmly. She looked at the young man in front of her again, then turned around and walked in one direction of the forest. But in my heart, I was even more certain that the other person was a foreigner. If he were a villager from the nearby human world, there was no way he wouldn't know his name.
The girl often goes to the human world to perform puppet shows, so she can be considered a C-level debut.
The two little puppets surrounding her quickly closed the door of the mansion behind her, then turned back and followed their master in suspended flight, with self-discipline like puppet-shaped magic balls surrounding them. The small body also exudes a strong magic reaction.
"Alice? This is really a fairy tale name. It really suits the girl's temperament."
Gu Mo blinked his eyes, showed a serious expression of approval, and praised with a smile.
——This is another very interesting clue.
——The interest in his heart was even greater.
"Um."
Alice disapproved of this and just nodded casually, without replying but continuing to move forward lightly.
She is no stranger to this kind of thing. Just like a drowning person will always subconsciously grab the last straw, a person who is lost in the depths of the magic forest will always worry that the only one who can help will suddenly regret it, so until he walks out Lin Lin always subconsciously wanted to get close to her.
It seems that this can make them feel at ease.
However, the lost person I met today was a little unusual.
Alice found that after he praised her name, he didn't say anything else. He didn't continue talking like other lost people who were obviously frightened and uneasy.
This made the girl a little surprised.
But that's okay, if she keeps talking, the girl will feel very embarrassed. After all, her character is destined to be unable to chat with strangers. But if she doesn't respond all the time, it's easy for people to think that she has a cold expression and is thinking wildly.
It's not like this has never happened before. When leading people out of the forest, she remained silent and the people being led were too uneasy. They tried hard to speak and wanted to find some sense of security, but they never got it. responded, ultimately scaring myself to death.
There are no obvious roads in the magic forest.
This original dense forest is full of vitality, and its growth rate is too fast. In addition to the areas where villagers often come in and out, or collect herbs or cut firewood, and can maintain some trails, the depths of the interior are Maintaining the absolute original ecology.
But in this case, a qualified magic user could not help it. Wherever Alice walked, a clean and spacious road was naturally cleared.
It's like the forest is giving way. As long as the blonde girl continues to move forward, the road will continue to extend... Hmm, why does it feel like something is not right?
Anyway, that's what happened. Gu Mo followed Miss Alice in front easily and walked easily through the dense forest without losing any strength. He was also observing the other party's control of magic power, and felt a little relieved and satisfied.
Well, this should be the founder's feelings about the later generations practicing their own traditions...
How could one not feel gratified to see the magic system he passed down being carried forward, and to see this strange girl's superb control over magic.
Of course he felt this way, and then he restrained his thoughts and carefully looked at the girl's beautiful face. This beauty was almost not inferior to that of the Princess of the Moon, especially the face that was so beautiful and neat that she looked like a human. A normal face.
The two autonomous puppets surrounding him looked like miniature versions of the girl herself at first glance, but he also noticed many traces of his own puppetry skills in them...
Of course, this doesn't mean anything. The technology I have passed down over the years is not limited to the field of puppets.
It was as if the other party had just used the magic system he had created.
But apart from these elements that cannot be used as evidence, there are still some clues that are interesting enough——
He glanced at the magic book in the hands of the blond girl, which was tied and locked with a bow, giving it a subtle feeling of a girl's heart. But this does not prevent him from confirming that this is his own handwriting. The book is a fairy tale kingdom polished by his magic.
It was a bizarre and beautiful fantasy world.
Many characters from fairy tales and legendary creatures live in this book realm, playing their own characters.
But there is only no character "Alice", because the entire magic book is a magical world created with the theme of "Alice in Wonderland", so the owner of the book is naturally the protagonist, and he can only open it for the first time People who read this book will have the opportunity to take on the role of "Alice" and embark on the fantasy journey of that story...
Now, this book is in the hands of this girl.
Moreover, her name is actually Alice.
——This situation is very debatable.
Gu Mo didn't believe that anyone could snatch this gift from Shenqi, so he could only think that this girl had something to do with Shenqi... Even the gift that Shenqi specifically asked him to give was probably not What I want, but what I want for this girl?
His thinking was extremely quick at this moment, and he easily grasped the key and figured out the basic outline of the matter.
Just need to figure out the details——
For example, who is this Miss Alice? Why does Miss Shenqi take it so seriously? Gu Mo was quite interested in these details, and so on, and so on, and he also made some guesses. He remembered something that Miss Shenqi once said.
The most perfect and satisfying work...
After taking a deep look at the blonde girl, he felt that this was what happened.
After all, it is actually very difficult to completely hide it from him. The main thing is to see if he wants to be serious. ——It’s just that although Gu Mo can be very sharp when he should be sharp, he never imagined that the truth is actually more impactful.
At this time, Alice who was walking seemed to feel his gaze and frowned slightly.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with you?"
She stood still, stopped and turned around to look at the person behind her. When she saw the other person looking at her thoughtfully, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.
"There are some problems..."
Facing this frowning blond girl, Gu Mo nodded calmly: "I don't know much about Gensokyo now. Could you please tell me about it, Miss Alice?"
"..."
"..."
There was a brief silence.
After a slight hesitation, Alice turned around and continued walking forward, while speaking softly: "Fantasy Township is the name of this land, and the magic forest you are entering now is part of Gensokyo. It is different from the outside world. There are monsters and gods in this land..."
While saying this, the girl also felt something strange.
Why did you really follow the other party's request and explain it to the other party?
This is not the first time that Alice has led a lost person, but she has never changed her style in the past. After all, she still maintains a somewhat cold temperament and does not show much warmth and kindness.
But this time, it is very concerning——
I don’t know how to describe it, but it’s a completely different feeling than before. She led the way, and the young man behind looked at her with calm eyes. It was obviously no different from before, just like before, but it made her feel an indescribable weirdness.
This weird feeling made her feel very awkward and unnatural, and she couldn't help but become very concerned about it.
It seems like there is some distress...
Seems a little uneasy...
It seemed that she didn't know why, but she subconsciously cared about this person's eyes and his opinion of her. She also cared about whether she was not doing well enough and worried about performing poorly in front of him...
Just like this moment——
The blond girl organized her words and whispered about the situation in Gensokyo. She was strangely concerned about this strange feeling. She didn't understand what was going on.
