Uriel stopped and did not get close to the water. His two companions also stopped.
Memie's nose twitched. "Shall we just dive in?"
"Then you can bring nothing with you except the fur and the lake water saturated in the cloth."
The lake is bottomless. In the entire city of Kamaria, there were only the rustling footsteps of three people, walking along the lakeside.
Uriel insisted that Meme go the farthest and warned him that the consequences of falling would be serious. "Your magic will dry up - you know, the Broken Moon is longing for you, your magic, your soul, your everything. After devouring the magic that naturally surrounds you, it will not be satisfied with this. , it will force you to light a fire that will burn your soul dry."
"Light the fire?" Of course Meimi is not a mystic, he is at best a monster - not all aliens are mysterious creatures. Just like York, he still exists in the form of light when the fire is not lit, but he cannot control the magic.
As a railroad worker, getting a ticket to a mysterious world may not be so hard to swallow. "sounds good."
"Not at all." York quickly said, "It is not easy to become a mysterious creature. It is very dangerous to light a fire directly. Believe me, the number of mysterious creatures is limited, and there is a reason for this."
"Then what should I do, I'm here to watch you when you go into the water?" Even the little gray wolf felt a little embarrassed at this time. "I can't do anything to help. This is really difficult." His distress was very serious.
Sometimes the tricks played by children will make people feel incredible, but sometimes people would rather discuss important matters with a kid than plot and delay each other's time in front of adults.
Uriel couldn't help but feel lucky that the person here was a silly little werewolf railway worker. It would have been better to replace him with someone like Controller Shono or Gavin Wiggins. Maybe he was more worried about the safety of the treasure after he found it. Now I only have to think about how to deal with a little wolf, and I can thank Gaia for that.
"Black Moon Lake is a mysterious lake. We can't be so reckless about the underground water." This sentence appeared in the future images. Uriel can overcome some unimportant steps, but he must be patient in more steps. Come and do it again. The apprentice said loudly and deliberately: "Maybe we should think of other ways, such as digging up the soil on the lake shore."
“What good does this do for salvage?”
“With the dock, we can moor the boats.”
The adventurer kind of figured it out. "It is definitely possible to sail on Black Moon Lake. Once you reach the middle of the lake, it will not be difficult to salvage the treasure."
"Where are we going to find a boat?"
"Good question." He couldn't help but muttered, "Uriel, how can you implement your good idea?"
The apprentice looked at the center of the lake and said, "Let's make a wish."
"..."
The lakeside was silent for a moment.
Uriel had known that they would look like this. "Indeed, if the wish works, we can just let the treasure float up." He couldn't help but smile, "But Broken Moon will definitely not be willing to give us his treasure."
Meimi tilted her head, "I suspect that you are also a werewolf, so you are driven crazy by the moon. Are you asking us to make a wish on the moon?"
Before I saw it with my own eyes, I thought this method was ridiculous. "The Black Moon Lake in Kamaria is the Wishing Fountain." Uriel explained while thinking about his next words. "When Alanvor still existed, the ancient elves regarded this place as a holy place. This is what was written on the previous square tower. That's it."
The adventurer never expected that such a thing would be recorded in detail, not to mention that he was the only one who could read Elvish. Even he didn't recognize more than half of the text when browsing the square tower. "Otto even told you this?"
"You are right to think so." In fact, most of the contents on the Square Tower were told to me by you.
Uriel can't tell him that we are back at the Square Tower. You said that there are records that the elves used Black Moon Lake as a wishing pool, and then came up with this idea out of the blue, right? My expression must have been very funny at that time.
Using precognitive magic to avoid possible embarrassing situations made the apprentice feel happy. If I could control the time I left, maybe I would see what would happen before doing anything.
"How about we give it a try?" he persuaded. From digging the dock to finding the boat, if I hadn't spent time thinking hard on the lakeside, I wouldn't have agreed with your method even if I jumped into the water. Now it seems that saving this effort is not necessarily a good thing. "If it can be successful, it will be much better than diving. The treasure may not be salvageable in one go."
Fortunately for Uriel, although Meimi was still dubious, the adventurer began to seriously consider the possibility of this matter. Who would have thought that one day I would sincerely thank my companion for being a weirdo who thinks very differently from ordinary people?
It seems that three hundred years of life may not have any impact on the way some guys look at problems.
"Mystery has no logic." York made a decision. "Absurd things may be normal in the mysterious field. After all, mysterious creatures are anomalies themselves."
"Broken Moon." Meimi was stunned, "Do you think this is really possible?"
"Why not? You're not a mystic, just stay aside. For the sake of what you warned us in the tunnel, you, the lucky kid, will be indispensable when we bring the treasure back to the shore."
The adventurer walked to the round lake, and the stone bricks under his feet were extremely smooth. He raised his sword and Uriel was immediately ready.
There was a loud bang——
The orange-faced man almost fell into the water. He looked at the waves rising in the lake in amazement, as if someone had thrown a brick into the lake. The heavy object smashed through the boundary between the air and the still water, and the foamy water splashed in all directions. The entire Round Lake was disturbed, and this peaceful moon on earth was full of cracks, finally resembling its creator.
Uriel took the opportunity to drag him back. "Go back behind the stone sculpture!" They stumbled away from the lake shore.
On the Black Moon Lake, the water waves rolling up into the sky condensed into translucent figures. Strings of milky white foam rippled, and the ring-shaped water flow was colorful under the clear sky, and the water mist was like silver sand. Magic began to surround the surroundings, surrounding the phantom in the center of the lake like a whirlpool.
"Lucia, what is that?!" York never dreamed that there were mysterious creatures in the lake.
"The water fairy of Kamaria." The apprentice said, and there was a sense of relief in his voice. Anyone who can avoid the bad fate of getting soaked and choking on water will feel much more relaxed. "They are fairies who collect scattered treasures at the bottom of the river. Their entire group is a mysterious creature."
When Uriel pronounced the word elf, he did not notice that his voice rose slightly. He really loves such adventures. Any novel race and mysterious things are full of incredible beauty.
The orange-faced man was not as happy as he was. "There's a goblin living in Black Moon Lake? That's really not good."
"Why?" The apprentice remembered that when he first saw the Kamaria fairy, the adventurer did not behave in any special way. His surprise was reasonable, and he told Uriel that this kind of goblin was also a type of elemental life.
"I really want to go into the water and have a look, but I can't do that now." York replied, "It seems you don't know much about them."
My understanding of them is limited to the water fairies in front of me. Who said there is no mystery in the world? If I hadn't wasted so much time in fantasy, I might have known better. Uriel couldn't help but feel sorry. "This is the only goblin I've ever seen."
"No, not one."
Suddenly, the werewolf Meimi pointed to the center of the lake, her eyes widened, and she screamed: "There are countless of them!"
Large swaths of bubbles surged under the surface of the lake——
Uriel finally discovered that things were completely out of his expectation. His hands and feet were weak and his heartbeat was racing. He realized that the adventurer had not told him everything at the time. "Countless?" The apprentice's eyes began to flash.
"Every drop of water is a goblin." York said, "The black moon lake that lost its magic has dried up long ago, and the Broken Moon took everything away. Now all the people in the round lake are goblins, without a drop of water. The little goblin is Social creatures.”
Sure enough, the water level of Black Moon Lake dropped rapidly. Before Uriel could recover, he saw water droplets all over the sky jumping and scattering like small balls. What he thought of was the scene of Katie jumping out of the inkwell. There is no difference between the ink fairy and the water fairy, at least it doesn't look like it.
"That shadow!" he heard Memie exclaim. Compared with apprentices and mercenaries, Little Gray Wolf's life is much more normal, and his understanding of mysterious creatures is no deeper than Uriel's. Meimi yelled, jumped on the apprentice's back, and pulled his hair. "Look, it's coming!"
"I saw it, thank you." Uriel forced himself to calm down. Don't forget what you have to do, he reminded himself. There is nothing to be afraid of. They are always in the lake, even if you don't know it, they are there. He finally understood why York didn't tell him the truth.
Magic allowed him to understand many situations in advance——
In the illusion, they fell directly into the round lake, and then hurriedly climbed ashore. York must have noticed something unusual about the lake at that time. Meme rushed over and tried to help, but the Kamaria fairy who surfaced first threw soap bubbles at him - God knows why there is soap in the lake - anyway, the little gray wolf had sticky foam on his face and was drunk. As if he was teetering on the verge of falling into Black Moon Lake. Uriel had no choice but to distract him and hold him.
The apprentice almost thought it was a dangerous monster, but he never expected that York would actually ask the water fairy about the treasure. The reason is that it is easy to deal with elemental beings.
It's as if commoners and nobles can get along well with each other as humans. This is simply unreasonable. Uriel was not optimistic about his idea, and then York was covered in foam from the goblin. This time, even the apprentice was affected.
"Are you coming to worship the moon again?" Kamaria the fairy spoke in human language, but it still spoke with the accent of the south of the Eastman Kingdom. Uriel then understood that those soap bubbles were a kind of magic that communicated with each other. "I haven't seen a werewolf in a long time. Not even an elf. Why hasn't anyone come in so long?"
