Dak jumped down from inside and quickly walked towards the bridge downstairs.
With the Sorting Card in hand, he could clearly know where Digimon flew no matter where it went.
Once he crossed the bridge, he was no longer in a hurry.
They maintained a fixed distance, following closely behind without rushing even though they couldn't see Wiete at all.
It was already 9:30 p.m., and apart from the clumsy golems, there wasn't a soul in sight in the castle.
They followed the trail for about ten minutes.
Witt continued walking forward, but Dark suddenly heard footsteps behind him!
On a sudden impulse, he quickly hid behind a statue of an unknown archmage, standing close to the statue.
The mage's wide robe successfully concealed his entire body.
The sound of hurried footsteps came quickly by.
Only after the sound completely disappeared did Dark breathe a sigh of relief and slowly walk out from behind the statue.
Just then, the Sorting Card suddenly trembled.
Not long after, Devimon flew back.
→It's lost!
……
"He seemed to have spotted me, then suddenly quickened his pace, turned a corner, and disappeared!"
Little Devimon rambled on, his face full of grievance.
Dark nodded, amused. "He didn't see you, did he?"
It's not surprising that Devimon got lost.
After all, he is the son of a hero, so he must have some unknown special qualities, perhaps even the legendary "sixth sense" or "seventh sense"?
The question is, was the appearance of Devimon ever seen?
Little Devimon shook his head frantically: "Absolutely, definitely, and certainly, I didn't see it!"
"It's good that you didn't see it."
Dak started walking back.
There was originally no need to pursue it further.
He didn't take it too seriously.
There are many uncertainties surrounding St. Marian.
The castle's history is too ancient, and its hidden secrets too distant.
Too many people have forgotten history.
When the deep-seated secrets surface, the dust of history will eventually settle.
But truth always comes amidst the fog.
Who will dispel the fog?
Who can grasp the truth?
Brave.
I'm here.
Chapter 38 Saint Marian's Youthful Romantic Story is Definitely Problematic
Witt Gold carefully pushed aside the mural and crawled out from inside the wall.
He had vaguely sensed someone following him, but as soon as he turned a corner, the pink object pointed directly at the wall.
The word "magic" condensed above it.
He reached out with his left hand and poured in magic power, causing ripples to spread across the wall like water.
He gritted his teeth and crawled inside, entering an extremely secret passage.
There was a torch every few meters along both sides of the secret passage.
When someone approaches, the torch suddenly bursts into flame, illuminating the secret passage.
The secret passage was winding and had many forks, sometimes meandering like a snake, sometimes rising and falling. As his senses gradually became confused, Werther could no longer tell whether he was going downhill or uphill.
After finally emerging from there, what greeted my eyes was the monotonous scenery of the castle.
After taking a few more steps, we entered another secret passage.
After several repetitions, Witt was completely bewildered.
As the fog on the pages gradually dissipated and became blurred, "Into the Abyss" returned to silence.
→Witt felt like he'd been tricked!
……
It took Witt a full half hour to finally escape the labyrinthine castle, covered in dust and grime, and return to the common room of the Knights' Academy.
Robert is still working on "Fantasy Beasts".
A classmate who happened to be interested gave him a few pointers.
Perhaps understanding the difficulty and value of accumulating credits, Robert was extremely cautious, proceeding very slowly at each step, and the production process went relatively smoothly. Now, they had reached the most crucial and also the most difficult step—drawing the first transmutation circle!
Witt watched silently, not daring to make a sound to disturb him.
But when describing this transmutation circle that even Diana could successfully depict, Robert appeared unusually nervous!
As a result, my finger trembled, the pen tip slipped, and I drew the wrong thing!
"Well--"
"Don't be nervous, Robert, we can keep going!"
Witt rushed over and grabbed his hand!
Robert was sweating profusely, but with Witt's help, he managed to finish and continued drawing lines.
Despite the glaring extra stroke, he eventually completed the entire Transmutation Array No. 1!
The alchemy array glowed successfully.
Robert trembled with nervousness, and it took him several attempts to finally manage to pick up the magical beast's fur and place it in the light.
As the hair was gradually swallowed by the golden light of Alchemy Array No. 1, the light became increasingly intense.
Golden threads separated from Alchemy Array No. 1, wrapping and enveloping the Magic Card layer by layer.
Finally, a golden cocoon was formed!
……
"There's one more step, Robert," Witt said. "Inject magic, and think more about things you like."
Robert reached out and placed his hand on the golden cocoon, slowly infusing it with magic: "Something I like? Magic chess?"
The Magic Cards emerge from their cocoon.
Robert excitedly picked up the magic card, which represented three days of hard work by the two brothers. The originally blurry, transparent outline on the card immediately began to change after meeting his gaze.
It wasn't Jack Russell Terrier, Ron's Patronus from Harry Potter, nor was it a little mouse like Ron's pet Scabbers; it was the eternally immovable castle from the Magic Chess set!
Card Name: Magical Beast
[Type: Spirit Card]
【grade:】
[Race: Elemental]
[Type: Ground]
【Magic Power: 300】
[Attack: 0]
[Defense: 300]
Ultimate Skill: Fortify
……
Everyone was stunned when Robert summoned his "Magic Beast: Castle".
In Magic Chess, the castle is equivalent to the player's life. It occupies a fixed 3x3 grid, has ten times the health of a single piece, and can consume one turn to activate its unique skill: Fortify, which halves the attack damage the castle receives in the next turn.
Once the castle is captured, the player is declared defeated.
Robert's "Magic Beast: Castle" is also a huge cube measuring 3 meters by 3 meters by 3 meters by 3 meters. Once summoned, it gives people a sense of solidity and unshakeability!
"Wow! Robert, you can do that!"
Witt punched Robert on the shoulder, surprised.
Robert was so excited that his neck turned red. He exclaimed, "Come here, my castle, let me take a good look at you!"
→The castle sauce remained untouched.
After several attempts, Robert's face turned pale.
Suddenly someone said, "What's so surprising, Robert? The castle in the Magic Chess game can't be moved, isn't that common sense? Hahaha, hahaha! Sorry, I couldn't help it, hahaha!"
……
That night, Robert dreamed that he had transformed into a magnificent castle, but was gradually gnawed down by a group of rats with big front teeth, starting from the corners, until he was filled with despair and finally collapsed with a crash!
……
And Witt also had a dream.
He dreamed of the librarian, the upperclassman, and dreamed of dating her in the garden where lilies bloom.
When he woke up, there was a sticky mess on his bed.
……
The clueless boy, lacking relevant knowledge, thought he had wet the bed and his face was flushed all morning.
……
Thursday seemed to bring everything back to normal.
Witt and Robert have returned to their usual selves. Their previous short-lived enthusiasm for studying is gone, but they are a little more disciplined than before, and they will avoid Emma after class.
Emma, however, had no intention of paying them any attention.
As always, Dak earned credits to fund his weekend shopping spree on Traveler's Street.
By the way, substituting for someone else earns you 200 extra points!
Dak felt that he hadn't earned enough points using the "vertical calculation method" and argued his case.
Professor Lily then gave him another 150.
So earning credits is really easy.
……
After finishing his afternoon session on the History of Magic, Dark went to the library as usual.
People grow up, and he was able to walk past Pandora without changing his expression.
But after walking a distance, he suddenly turned around and saw Victor awkwardly talking to his senior. This made him realize something, and he couldn't help but smile slightly, still calm and collected.
New homework was assigned in arithmetic class.
This is when Diana and Rose get involved.
Dark looked at the two little girls who were sitting obediently across from him at the desk, feeling somewhat helpless.
It was 5 p.m.
Diana finally finished her last assignment, and with a "Wow!" she leaned back in her chair, puffed out her chest and stretched her arms, her little white rabbit hidden in her thin school uniform eager to jump out.
