Chapter 2789 Underwater God
The black-haired human witch had no objection to the sudden action, nor did she have an objection to staying alone. She was just a little worried and asked the four people to be careful and not to take risks.
The current location is the fourth floor. If you want to go to the second floor underwater, you need to go to the third floor first. The journey is not far. After the four people walked far away, Xia De asked again:
"Did any of you light that bonfire? Or was it already there when you found this place? I feel that the flame has a special power. It is protecting us."
Iluna shook her head to indicate that she didn't know, while the werewolf girl and the green dragon girl who came earlier thought for a while before answering:
"It should be Miss Maze who lit it. We were all brought here by her. She had been living here for a while before we came."
Miss Wilder, who had dragon wings, asked curiously:
"Why, is there something wrong with the flame?"
"No, I feel like there's something wrong with Miss Maze."
Xia De answered cautiously, and immediately added:
"I'm not saying she's a bad person, I just feel she's not ordinary. Don't worry about it for now, maybe it's just my illusion."
"Shad, Miss Metz wouldn't be..."
Iluna, who was walking beside Shade, asked half expectantly and half surprised. She had heard Shade summarize that he would encounter gods every time he went on a time adventure.
"No, no, of course not, definitely not Miss Metz."
Shade immediately denied Iluna's bold guess. Although the god had not yet appeared, he felt that the four girls by the fire were definitely not the god in disguise.
This ancient building, whose original purpose can no longer be seen, has only walls left. However, from the remaining carvings and decorations on the walls, one can still tell that its prosperity was no less than that of Saint Byron's during the Sixth Era.
The corridor was extremely wide, but the four people did not walk side by side. Instead, Shade and Iluna walked in the middle, while the green dragon girl and the werewolf girl were behind them, keeping an eye on the back. According to them, there was no completely safe area except by the fire.
Not only are there monsters lurking in this dilapidated castle building, but sometimes even strange creatures from the outside world hover here for a short time, so every time you go out is a challenge.
But fortunately, at least this time the four of them did not encounter any danger on the road. They even took this opportunity to exchange their own strengths. Of course, it was mainly the latecomer Xia De who shared his own information and listened to the girls' information.
He honestly said that he was good at moon spells and had a talent for time and space, and the werewolf girl Miss Bister told Shade that she was also good at moon spells and understood some spatial abilities.
And because she is a werewolf, she prefers close combat, and her best skill is to attach moonlight to her already sharp claws to cause damage to the enemy.
This werewolf girl is a rare moon spell user who is proficient in the power of March, just like Shade, instead of being proficient in only the power of the red moon or the yellow moon like Miss Danister or Miss Orlanod.
As for the green dragon girl, Miss Alfina Wilder, as a pure-blooded dragon, she of course fights in the way of dragons and dragonborn. In addition to the powerful abilities brought by her race, such as dragon breath and the time power she mentioned earlier, she also has some experience in manipulating plants and trees.
It's just a pity that in the current environment of the "Ashes Valley", although there are gray mosses and lichen-like things everywhere, Shade didn't even see a normal grass.
The four of them quickly arrived at the third floor, and then jumped into the water on the second floor from a hidden hole under the podium at the bottom of a staircase room on the third floor. They all had the ability to breathe underwater, but Iluna stopped Shade from trying to summon a light ball for illumination:
"Being underwater indoors is just a little safer than being outdoors, but you can't easily expose yourself with light."
Miss Wilder gave each person a small piece of tea stalk to hold in their mouths. After entering the water, everyone could clearly sense the position of their companions in the water and could also speak directly in the water.
Then the werewolf girl led the way, Shade and Iluna in the middle, and Miss Wilder at the end, and the group quickly continued to swim downwards in the dark and cold water. For some reason, the werewolf girl had to show her tail when she swam underwater, but she did swim very fast.
Something seemed to be watching the four of them underwater, and occasionally a long, whale-like roar could be heard from far away in the water. Whenever this happened, Shad noticed that the werewolf girl's tail would slightly puff up in the water. He knew that this kind of "peeping" was wrong, but when he tried to look away, he found that Iluna was also watching.
They passed through the underwater rooms, bypassed a huge fish skeleton with human teeth in the corridor, and finally saw the gap in the floor leading to the first floor after the werewolf girl puffed up her cheeks and blew out a bubble, causing a seemingly impassable wall to melt.
The gap was indeed not big. Not to mention the three girls, even the petite Chloe or the sisters Grace and Helen would not be able to pass through.
Shad then waved goodbye to Iluna and Miss Wilde. Since the red butterfly could not be transformed in the water, he turned directly into a cat. Then everyone found that the silver cat's fur was glowing faintly.
The werewolf girl shook her body and turned into a little grey wolf. Although the wolf was much bigger than the Shade cat, it could still be described as "petite", which once again proved that Miss Bister's real age must be young.
So the little wolf was the first to squeeze into the gap, and after confirming that it was safe below, the silver cat also swam in. After the gap, Shade immediately changed back to human form to maintain a fighting posture, but the werewolf girl did not do so, perhaps she was more comfortable in wolf form:
"Let's look around first."
She asked Shade for his opinion, and then the man and the wolf gradually disappeared into the dark water under the watchful eyes of the two people above the gap.
Xia De was originally worried that there wouldn't be enough time this time, but in fact they easily found an unusual place on the first floor.
After swimming downstream for a while, the werewolf girl suddenly stopped. She shook her body, and the "Ancestral Wolf" which had been restored to the appearance of a stone slab jumped out from the wolf's hair, and then emitted a faint golden light in the water.
The lights quickly formed a dull golden line pointing into the distance, so the man and the wolf looked at each other. The werewolf girl led the way, while Shad grabbed the book and followed behind her.
There was a sound of water surging ahead, as if something was being attracted by the glowing book. But before Shade could see clearly, holy silver and blood-red moonlight appeared on the two front paws of the petite gray wolf.
While she continued to swim on her hind paws, she crossed her two front paws in front of her body and swung them forward fiercely. The two crossed rays of moonlight flew deeper into the water, and the surging water calmed down again.
"A spell similar to Moonlight Slash."
Shade thought to himself, getting a general idea of Miss Bist's fighting style.
The golden line guided them to swim deeper and deeper underwater, and finally they turned into a small room in a very remote location, and were immediately attracted by the layout inside.
The light provided by the books illuminates this place, as well as the blackboard floating against the wall, the rows of rotten wooden chairs floating in the water, and the blurred but still existing paintings on the walls.
Only the last few lamp holders for the glowing crystals remain on the chandelier on the ceiling, but most of the wall lamps on the side walls are still intact, and it can be seen that the black metal lamp holders are in the shape of flowers.
Although Xia De had seen the remaining tables, chairs, benches and decorations in other rooms while swimming along the way, this room was the only one that retained the most complete "classroom" style.
The final destination of the golden line that led the two people was the stone podium fixed to the ground in front of the blackboard. The werewolf girl took the initiative to swim over to see what was there, but as soon as she got close, a bubble silently came out of her mouth - Shade guessed that she wanted to scream, and then she immediately turned around and swam back.
The light underwater was very dim, so it was only then that Xia De noticed that there was a figure in a black robe standing in the water between the blackboard and the podium.
And when he realized the existence of that figure, the real sense of oppression from the gods directly interfered with reality. Even though Shade did not move, he was pushed back two meters in the water before he stopped.
He reached out and grabbed the wolf girl who seemed a little stressed, then threw her behind him. He took a deep breath to calm himself down, and ignored the meaningless words of the girl behind him, such as "this, this, this", and said respectfully to the figure in the water:
"Lord of the Black Robe, God of the inheritor of knowledge, hello."
The figure in black robes turned around and looked at them at the classroom door. His face became clearer underwater with this action. Although it was quite impolite and unsafe to look directly at God's face, Shade couldn't help but look at His face.
The gentle black-haired lady wore a pair of small glasses, which was the image of the god shown to the naked eye. The golden light reflected in the surrounding water represented that Shade's "divine afterglow" state also appeared at this time.
The werewolf girl who had been frightened just now had stabilized a little at this time, but Xia De clearly felt that the gray wolf was lying on his back, as if he was carrying it on his back.
God responded:
"Guests from afar, welcome here."
"I was commissioned by Tree Father to come and assist you in completing your last lesson."
He spoke again, this time in the common language of Dralion, and the dark-haired lady smiled:
"Yes, this is the last lesson. After I finish this last lesson, I will leave too."
