Chapter 202: Return of Zuanya, the First Witch Lilith (Two in One)

In mid-May, the sunshine in Jianhe County was warm.

In the garden of the palace, cornflowers, violets, red roses, and even the "national flower of Romaine" irises are in full bloom.

Yeats also planted a few garlic and chili peppers here himself, and they are now ready for harvest after being ripened by the Faun's Afternoon Song.

now.

Yeats walked quickly to the garden and looked around: "Gray, where is the squirrel you mentioned?"

Gray pointed and said, "Look, it's in the snow leopard's mouth."

Ye Zhi was stunned to see a silvery-white snow leopard walking towards him with graceful steps, holding a frightened little squirrel in its mouth.

Take a look and it's not drilling.

It is just an ordinary squirrel, but there are traces of magic power flowing in its body, just like a "magic animal messenger".

"Snow Leopard, let the messenger go!"

Ye Zhi said, "Otherwise you won't have any cheese to eat tonight!"

The snow leopard was startled, lowered its head angrily, and put the squirrel on the ground.

The squirrel screamed and tried to escape, but was held firmly by the snow leopard's claws.

"Woo~" The snow leopard seemed a little regretful.

I thought I could use this squirrel as a snack! Ye Zhi walked forward, leaned over and touched the squirrel with his hand, calling on his magic power to communicate with the magic power carried by the squirrel, and the corresponding information emerged in his mind.

"It really is the messenger of Zuanya." Ye Zhi was a little surprised. "It's waiting for us outside the college. Gray, let's go see Zuanya together!"

"So what do we do with this squirrel?"

"Save it for making squirrel mandarin fish," Yeats joked.

Squirrel Mandarin Fish is not made of squirrels, just like the Holy Roman Empire is neither Holy nor Roman.

Gray was startled: "Huh?"

"Chirp!" The squirrel seemed to understand what people said and ran away quickly.

However.

A ball of light flew down from the treetops and hit the squirrel. With a bang, it transformed into a bleating lamb.

Yeats and Gray were both stunned and looked up, only to see a snowy owl perched on the treetop, with its head tilted back, its small yellow eyes full of pride.

"Gu!"

Want to leave? Ask my sheep-transforming skill if it allows you to do so!

Yeats was a little confused.

How long had it been since he last learned Ice Storm? Did Snow Owl learn a new spell? He summoned Fetan, the fish of wisdom, to ask him for confirmation.

The rainbow salmon obviously didn't have a good memory. After thinking for a while, it slowly said, "A few days ago, I taught it this new spell... but I forgot to tell you."

Yeats sighed.

As both of us are chosen by the magic god, how come Snow Owl can learn new spells so quickly? I still have to rely on PY trading with the big guys to learn new spells?

At this time.

The time was up, the Transfiguration was lifted, and the squirrel fled away: "Chi!"

This family is so scary!

Yeats rubbed his chin.

The sheep transformation technique is a magical control skill of the fourth-ring mage.

Mages are not good at close combat, however, Sheep Transformation is a spell that can be cast at close range and can effectively make up for the mage's weakness in close combat.

Once the knight is hit by the sheep transformation, his ability will be greatly weakened according to the percentage. Although the control time is very short, it is enough for the mage to launch a terrifying burst.

Of course, experienced knights will always be extra wary of control methods such as the "Sheep Transformation Technique", and can use shields or body protection fighting spirit to block the light of the spell.

It can be said that this is a spell with great limitations but extremely powerful effects.

The point is, who would have thought that a snowy owl could master the art of transformation? Ye Zhi thought to himself, let the snow leopard be the bait for the snowy owl in the future, to create opportunities for it to hit the target with the art of transformation! The pet will be in the front, and I will just shoot arrows and play music in the back! *Outside Jianhe University, the sun shines through the thick shade of the forest.

Ye Zhi followed the address provided by the messenger and looked up at the huge oak tree in front of him. He felt sad that he had been in Jianhe County for so long but had never been here, and he didn't even know there was such a historic oak tree.

"It is said that this oak tree was planted by Emperor Fred himself after he defeated the Pirate King Halfdan the Whiteshirt," Gray said.

The oak is the national tree of the Golden Lion Kingdom. Without the oak, their naval fleet would have been torn to pieces by the anger of the northern people.

At this time, Feitan's slow voice came from the magical pet plane.

"The atmosphere here is so familiar... It feels like I've seen it before..."

It is obviously a wise fish, but it is as forgetful as an Alzheimer's patient.

Ye Zhi coughed lightly, and heard a familiar call from the bottom of his heart.

"Long time no see, Yeats!"

Yeats looked up.

A little red squirrel, its fur shining golden in the sun, was not the same chipmunk as before.

But the tone and demeanor of his voice undoubtedly showed that he was a good comrade who had experienced the night of the lunar eclipse together, Diao Ya! "Long time no see." Ye Zhi smiled, "Why did you think of looking for me now?"

Whoosh! The little squirrel jumped down from the treetop, knelt on one knee, and supported the ground with one hand. It was a familiar hero's appearance action.

Immediately, the little squirrel stood up, folded his hands in front of him, like a human embracing his arms, and said with a smile:

"Because I have come to fulfil my promise to go with you to Walpurgis Night!"

Ye Zhi couldn't help but smile.

The misty goddess who loved to have fun is gone, and we have lost a big leg.

Now the angry Drill Tooth has come and connected this thigh! To be honest, Drill Tooth and Daisy have similar personalities, but the little squirrel gives Yeats a bit of a "I just love to see you get angry, but you can't kill me" feeling.

This time, Ye Zhi joined hands with Zuanya. Although Ye Zhi was a low-level weakling like an ant, he also had the confidence to pass the Spring Day event! Ye Zhi remembered that the big villain in this event was a clone of [The Original Witch Lilith].

Witches, also known as sorcerers, are different from human female wizards who learn spells. Their profession is "sorcerers" and they gain power by signing a contract with the lord Lilith.

Lilith belongs to the hell camp. Before Ye Zhi traveled through time, her life experience had not been fully revealed. Players speculated that while she was the original witch, she was also the Lord of Original Sin, one of the seven deadly sins.

In fact, witches have lived peacefully with humans for a long time, and even took on the work of curing diseases and saving lives.

However, more than half a century ago, the previous Pope Innocent issued an edict declaring that witches were unforgivable, and based on the "Gavel of Witches", launched a massive "witch trial" movement.

A large number of innocent women were executed as witches, including Jeanne, who had rescued the Siege of Orleans and was revered as a saint by the Kingdom of Roland.

At that time, Jeanne, a quasi-saint-level warrior, was captured by Yeats's ancestor, the Grand Duke of Brontë, and was executed by the Inquisition.

In the plot of Walpurgis Night, members of the Inquisition also appeared to hunt down the witch.

The winter event "Night of Eclipse" is a conflict between the three gods of darkness, moonlight, and magic.

This event is a confrontation between witches and the church, and behind it is the game between hell and the kingdom of God.

Ye Zhi is already on the apostles' wanted blacklist and has no connection with hell. It is difficult for him to get the immortal flower by taking advantage of the situation.

But with the drill by his side, Yeats felt that he was up to it again!

"I do intend to go to Broken Hill," Yeats said with a smile, "Come back with me first, Diamond, and we can talk while we eat!"

Gray complained, "Sure enough, no matter how big the matter is, it's not as important as eating!"

Zuan Yaben was still worried that after half a year, Ye Zhi had changed his mind. Now when he heard that Ye Zhi wanted to go to Broken Hill with him to cause trouble, he rubbed his hands and said excitedly:

"I knew it, Yeats, you were born to be a troublemaker!"

Ye Zhi: “…”

That's not wrong. Isn't the cook just fanning the flames?

…

On the way back to the palace.

Yeats rode on the snow-white Roland warhorse, with a curious little squirrel standing on his shoulder, chirping:

"It's been less than half a year, Ye Zhi, and you've already become a three-ring transcendent?"

There is no shortage of geniuses among humans. It would not be surprising if someone else could be promoted at such a fast pace.

However, Zuaya knew that Yeats had talent. It cannot be said that he had none at all, but it could also be said that it was difficult to carve up a rotten tree.

And now, Ye Zhi has actually been promoted to the third ring. This growth rate really surprised Zuan Ya!

"I met the Apostle of God, Remiel, and was promoted to the second ring under his inspiration—"

Yeats narrated the extremely horrifying facts in a calm tone.

"Later, during the trial of the Goddess of Magic, I caught the Fish of Wisdom and was able to advance to the third ring."

Zuan Ya suddenly became stunned and stood stiffly on Ye Zhi's shoulder with a look of disbelief in his eyes.

"Yeats, is your experience so legendary?"

Zuan Ya said in shock: "I never thought that your life would be so wonderful after I left!"

Ye Zhi smiled bitterly. He couldn't even go home after being chased by the apostles. How could it be so exciting?

"I believe that it will be even more exciting after you come." Ye Zhi said with high emotional intelligence.

Zuan Ya laughed twice, looking forward to joining hands with Ye Zhi, and then asked curiously: "You just mentioned the fish of wisdom, is it the sacred beast of the goddess of magic?"

Facing the Diamond Tooth, Ye Zhi felt that there was no need to hide anything. Without its help, he would have died on the night of the lunar eclipse. He nodded and said, "Because of this fish of wisdom, the Snow Owl and I have become the chosen ones of magic."

Drill's brain crashed again.

Magic God's Chosen One? Two of them were born at once? And they appeared at Ye Zhi's house at the same time?

"Wait a minute!" Zuanya discovered the problem. "I remember that you later became the chosen one of the goddess of art? And now you are chosen by both gods?"

Ye Zhi nodded calmly.

Please...collect 6...9...books...!

The little squirrel felt like his brain was a little confused.

After parting with Yeats, Zuanya secretly observed for a while, and after confirming that Yeats had become the chosen one of art, he left in surprise and joy.

And now, Ye Zhi has become the choice of two gods! Zuanya sighed secretly.

This guy is really popular with the goddess! Immediately, Zuanya said in a condescending manner: "Ahem, in this case, let the fish of wisdom come out and let me see it."

"Logically, it should call me senior!"

Although he is just a squirrel, and his strength seems to be mainly based on deception, his seniority is frighteningly high, and he is qualified to stand on the top of the World Tree.

Yezhi nodded and summoned Feitan.

Squirrel salmon, big eyes versus small eyes.

"It's really you." Zuanya exclaimed in amazement, "I never thought you would sign a contract with Ye Zhi!"

Those who are chosen by the wise salmon are all rare magical geniuses, such as Merlin and the Salmon Knight.

Ye Zhi is definitely the least talented one among the chosen ones by the magic gods! "You are... a very important person." Feitan pondered for a long time, and finally sighed dejectedly, "I forgot."

The little squirrel seemed to be used to it and nodded, "No problem, remember my name again, Ratatosk, the fang that climbs the world tree!"

Feitan: ⊙_⊙

After a long time, Feitan seemed to have finally connected to the Internet cable.

"R-Ratatosk?!"

Fei Tan was shocked and said, "Why are you here?"

It has already recalled the other party's identity, a primordial creation that can be compared with the First Dragon and the Ancient King of Storm Eagle!

The magic goddess was born in the struggle between moonlight and darkness. Although her power is great, Ratatoskr and the World Tree existed long before she and the magic network were born!

This mythical creature appeared before him openly and seemed to be closely related to Yeats. Fetan was so shocked that he even spoke faster!

The little squirrel waved his hand, his tail couldn't help but curl up, and he said calmly: "It's just that I have some important things to cooperate with Ye Zhi... Oh, by the way, don't tell Minerva about my affairs, understand?"

Looking at Fei Tan who nodded repeatedly, Ye Zhi thought, even if you don’t remind him, Fei Tan will probably forget it!

*Half an hour later.

In the palace.

There was a long dining table in the hall, and a little squirrel was standing on the table, looking forward to something. Feitan was floating on the side, looking at the little squirrel frequently, his eyes full of disbelief.

Yeats seemed to have a close relationship with Ratatosk, but how exactly was Yeats connected to Him? I couldn't figure it out.

Feitan shook his head.

Let’s eat first.

At least the food cooked by Yeats is indeed a rare delicacy in the world!

The aroma wafted over, and Ye Zhi brought a plate of golden dish with sweet and sour sauce and placed it on the dining table.

This dish had a peculiar shape and had never been seen before in the entire Midgard Continent, which made Feitan and Zuanya stare with their eyes wide open.

After frying, the fish body turns golden brown and crispy on the outside, the head and tail remain intact, and the middle part is fluffy and expanded, looking three-dimensional and attractive.

"Is this... a fish?" Gray asked uncertainly.

"This dish is called Squirrel Fish. No, Squirrel Mandarin Fish."

Yeats explained, “But the mandarin fish here is made from carp.”

Since it uses ordinary ingredients that do not contain mana, this [Squirrel Fish] can only restore physical strength but cannot provide permanent benefits.

But its unique shape and peculiar taste also make it a novel experience.

"Squirrel salmon?" Gray asked curiously, "But I don't see any squirrels?"

“It just looks like a squirrel.”

Yeats used a knife and fork to divide a small portion and placed it on Gray's plate, smiling and saying, "Try it."

The sweet and sour sauce floated up with the hot steam. Grey swallowed her saliva, picked up a piece of crispy fish meat and put it into her mouth.

The fish was crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. The sweet and sour sauce was just right, enhancing the umami flavor while neutralizing the greasiness. The taste was rich and layered, which immediately made Grey's eyes widen.

In front of Gray, it seemed as if a vivid squirrel appeared, climbing up the treetops, alertly observing the surroundings, leaping into the sea, and then riding the salmon through the wind and waves! Gray exclaimed: "It's delicious, just like Diamond riding Feitan and moving forward in the sea!"

Yeats: "… that's a good metaphor. Don't use metaphors next time."

Both Feitan and Zuanya gave high praise to this unprecedented dish.

"The knife skills and plating are unprecedented in style. Yeats, is this your own creation?" Zuanya asked in surprise.

"I learned it in a dream," Yeats said calmly.

Feitan tasted the fish and felt a little weird.

As expected, this dish was fried in my oil... and it smelled pretty good! During the meal, Ye Zhi asked where Zuan Ya went after they separated.

"After we parted last year, I returned to the Small World Tree and hibernated while accumulating mana to prepare for this year's plan."

Diamond Tooth said: "However, a few days ago, the Small World Tree had a tremor, which woke me up."

"The Little World Tree...Isn't it the ancient Asgard tree in the north that you are talking about?" Ye Zhi pondered.

Diamond nodded, his eyes rolled around, and he said, "Guess who I met at the ancient tree in Asgard?"

"Hilde?" Yeats speculated.

Zuanya looked at Ye Zhi in surprise.

Ye Zhi had the advantage of being a prophet and knew that the purpose of Hildreth's trip to the North was to get the sword in the tree.

But in Zuanya's eyes, Yeats's reasoning and analytical ability is really amazing.

"She obtained the sword in the tree, which caused the ancient tree of Asgard to vibrate, waking you up, and then you came to find me?" Yeats said.

Zuanya was silent for a moment, and said in a complicated tone: "You have used up all the words, what else can I say?"

Yeats deduced that there was a divine realm shrouding the ancient tree of Asgard, which was why Hildreth had not received any text messages.

But when Yezhi learned from Zuanya that she was safe and sound and even obtained the legendary weapon, he felt relieved.

As a being with a destiny, Xilude's growth rate will be quite astonishing. Even without her own training, she is destined to break through the threshold of the Sanctuary in the future.

Ye Zhi felt a sense of urgency... Although Xilude's philosophy has always been to protect others, he must keep up with her pace so that they can continue to fight side by side in the future.

"The legendary weapon, the sword in the tree, is an extremely rough giant sword."

Zuanya tilted his head and said intentionally or unintentionally:

"I vaguely remember that in Broken Mountain, there was an extremely sharp rapier made of mistletoe, called the Silver Mistletoe Sword. It had a great origin, and I'm afraid both the demons and angels would want to take it for themselves."

As he spoke, Zuanya glanced at Ye Zhi, as if waiting for his response.

Yeats knew that this was a bait deliberately thrown by Zuanya to make sure that he would not quit halfway.

However, Ye Zhi is also determined to obtain the Silver Oak Sword!

“This thing is meant for me.”

Ye Zhi calmly held out his hand and said, "Zuoya, let's work together to help me get this weapon. After the task is completed, I will treat you to a feast!"

Zuanya's eyes lit up.

A tiny squirrel's paw rested on Yeats's palm.

"make a deal!"
