BXBX NOVEL Chapter 8 Opportunity of Morrow
This look of pure excitement was by no means an act.
Moreover, Morrow looked intently at the liquid in the tea pot, not even noticing the loud exclamations made when he immediately got up and overturned his chair behind him.
Angel’s doubt reached its peak at this moment.
Why did Morrow react so strongly to Morning Dew After the Rain?
Can he see that Morning Dew After the Rain comes from another world?
Just as Angel pondered, Morrow slowly picked up the pot and poured the Morning Dew After the Rain into a teacup at the table and brought it towards his mouth, a wave of apprehension, then solemnness washed right over him.
Morrow’s movements, appearing very calm and peaceful, radiated like an aura, much so that the original lively atmosphere had suddenly quieted down.
Leon was about to say something, but somehow thought it would be more appropriate to be silent during this moment.
The silence did not last too long, as Morrow closed his eyes and began to enjoy the aftertaste of the tea, an inexplicable breath escaped from Morrow.
The breath was so amazing that everyone was stunned for a moment, but then all the guests found that they could no longer speak.
No matter how hard they tried to utter a syllable, they could no longer make any sounds.
It was like entering a world of absolute silence!
The inability to speak was only temporary, but the more frightening event was yet to come.
Morrow suddenly opened his eyes, pulled a crystal ball out from his robe and let it hover mid-air around him. After a few phrases escaped his mouth, a flash of brilliance occurred.
In the next few seconds, the onlookers were not only unable to speak, but their actions were now also bound.
“With this low-grade magical plant, my mental force is about to break through the barrier.
Advertisements
In order to avoid an accident as I break through the barrier, a Binding and Silent Boundary spell have been cast on all of you.
When I break through, I’ll release you all.” Morrow’s voice was low and hoarse, But with a strange charm.
After Morrow said this, regardless of the reaction by others, he just closed his eyes as his crystal ball continued to circle around him.
As part of the imprisoned group, Count Ethan and the others though a little disturbed at first, soon recovered their composure.
Angel and Leon on the other hand, looked much more alarmed.
The two brothers, from birth to now, have never experienced any supernatural phenomena, and had even thought that this world was the only world in front of them.
But at this moment today, Morrow’s magical spell had completely broken the worldview they had built up from an early age.
Happening all of a sudden, they were unprepared to accept what was occurring in front of them, it would be strange if they could stay calm!
Binding will make them unable to move, Silent Boundary can make them unable to speak, but these spells do not stop them from thinking.
In Silent Boundary, after the initial panic, Angel slowly calmed down.
His dilated pupils stopped and they soon went back to normal.
At this moment, he saw Irene sitting opposite of him, smiling at him with a peaceful expression while she mouthed to him, “Don’t worry.”
Angel froze for a moment and subconsciously smiled back.
All of a sudden, Irene’s face turned red, her eyes went round, and she didn’t know where to look.
Angel did not think much about it, only thinking that Irene was a shy person and didn’t like being stared at, and just like Count Eaton, decided to close her eyes at this time.
“Is this magic mentioned in the strange stories told by mentor?
Magic?
Or fairy arts?
In other words, the kind with spells right?
But isn’t this all just make believe?
Is this really happening in reality?
A series of questions popped up in Angel’s mind, lingering questions which could not be left answered.
He thought of the historical documents of the nearby countries compiled by his mentor over the years, some included historical descriptions in those countries, where there were some fantastical parts in the descriptions of the stories from them.
For example, in the Canary Empire 800 years ago, in the Mosang Canyon on the border of the Empire, there appeared a fire-breathing dragon endangering the people of a region, so the king issued a call to arms to warriors from all over the land to kill the dragon; countless soldiers, and knights responded to this call.
They poured into the domain of the dragon, but before they could even get close, they were burned to ashes by the fire that was ejected from the dragon’s mouth.
This was called the Battle of Dragons Slaughter.
After several years of fighting against the foul beast, hundreds of thousands of warriors were killed or wounded, but the dragon remained unscathed.
After facing these losses, the king decided to seal off the dragon’s territory, but as soon as he decided to do so, an old man in white robes flew in the region’s sky, incidentally passing through Mosang Canyon. He gently waved his wand and the dragon was pulled into an unknown space.
Then the old man in white robe left without saying a word.
According to the historical documents, a battle in order to slay the dragon began in tragedy and ends in absurdity.
Jon’s criticism of this historical document is: This is imperial fiction, a myth of peace and fantasy that spread to the people.
Angel used to think so too, but at this moment, doubts arose in his heart.
Maybe the old man in white, like old Morrow, is a man with magical powers?
In addition, in the historical records of Sea Blue State, it has been mentioned several times that Fengrao Islanders worshipped the goddess of the sea, and that mermaids seduced crewmen or cause fleets to sink.
Which shows that not only the Canary Empire, but Sea Blue State also had traces of magical myths in their historical documents.
Is this all made up?
The balance in Angel’s heart began to shift slowly.
…….
Morrow broke through the barrier in a short period of time, about the time it takes for a small quartz hourglass to be flipped once, the falling sands measuring to about 30 minutes.
The crystal ball slowly fell from their hovering guarded state and quietly suspended by Morrow’s side.
Morrow’s expression was full of joy!
How could he be unhappy? He had been an intermediate apprentice for nearly 20 years, thinking that he would never be able to break through his barrier to become an advanced apprentice in his life. Only then did he receive the task of enrolling students and return to Old Land to find a source of talents.
When he took over the task, he remembered his wry smile at the time as he looked at himself in the mirror.
As for looking for talents?
Ha, there are very few sources on the main continent, how can there be some in Old Land?
After he set sail on a ship and arrived to Old Land with some frustration.
Believing that in front of him, except for a thorny path, lay only despair.
Alas!
God took pity him when he least expected, on this trip, he thought it was going to be dull journey, but it had brought him such a grand surprise!
First he found two talents, which were his own grandchildren.
Not only did this allow him to overachieve his task, but once Alan and Irene grew up, they could help him in return.
And after in Old Land, he found an unknown primary magic plant!
After drinking Morning Dew After the Rain, he got down to business, he immediately found that the tea was vaguely comparable to Prynne potion.
Prynne is the only primary medicine with a barrier-breaking function, so it is of great value.
He worked hard for several years in order to have a chance to exchange for a bottle of Prynne.
But as a result.
Morning Dew After the Rain was found in the Old Land instead.
Unfortunately at this time, Morning Dew After the Rain had been kept in storage for too long, so the effects were seriously discounted.
After inquiring about the origin of Morning Dew After the Rain, both he and his party rushed to Grud Town without stopping.
A Chance!
This is an opportunity!
Morrow, who finally succeeded in breaking through the barrier at this moment, finally knew why some wizard apprentices liked to wander in dangerous ruins, because as long as they find a little opportunity, they had the hope of moving forward!
