Chapter 221: Mirage, Butterfly’s Chance! (Second Update)

The next day.

The weather around Dragon Court Lake wasn’t too good. It was cloudy and rainy.

Rain fell.

On the boundless lake, there were layers of waves crashing. A Giant Leviathan leaped out of the water surface, leaped at a low altitude for a while, and then fell into the water with a splash.

The huge shadow gradually faded.

At this moment…

If anyone nearby looked up, they would see that there was an invisible force in mid-air that had blocked out the rain.

One could only see the outline of the giant water ball floating in mid-air after the raindrops have fallen.

There were two figures inside the water ball.

Su Hao.

Heavenly King Wu, whose hair was neatly combed.

“Senior Wu, are there really ruins of ancient civilizations?”

Heavenly King Wu pondered for a moment. “Our understanding of this world is very, very limited, but that ruin is undoubtedly the mark of civilization.”

“It’s possible that thousands of years ago, tens of thousands of years ago, explorers like us from Blue Ocean Planet built palaces at the bottom of the lake. But it’s also possible that it was done by sprites.”

“In any case, the waters in this world are very deep. There are a lot of secrets that I can’t say right now. You’ll find out slowly in the future, but no matter what, you have to maintain a respectful heart.”

When Senior Wu spoke, his expression was very solemn, which was rare.

He paused for a moment. “That ruin has a very mysterious power. Once you step into its range, everyone will be separated. Only Sprite Trainers and sprites can still stay together. Even monarch rank sprites can’t resist that power.”

“So when you get there, you can only explore it alone.

“The assessment mission requirement is your exploration level in that area. You can draw a map and try to bring out the items inside… Of course, that won’t be easy.”

Heavenly King Wu’s words changed. “Apart from the mission requirements, that ruin is related to illusion abilities. It may be beneficial to your sprite… My Trading Puppet had previously improved some spirit powers inside.”

He looked at Reverie Butterfly.

They arranged such a place precisely because of Su Hao’s sprite.

The evolution conditions of Reverie Butterfly were unknown, but in the end, it was related to illusion and spirit power.

The more improvement it could make, the higher its possibility of evolution.

What if it succeeded?

Although Heavenly King Wu himself wasn’t that optimistic, it didn’t stop him from giving Su Hao a chance to give it a try.

“The danger level of the ruins isn’t high, but you have to be careful. After all, the school’s exploration of that place is similarly limited… Have you prepared everything?”

Su Hao patted the backpacks on his body and the back of the Dumb Unicorn’s body.

He brought enough food to last half a month.

Of course…

According to Senior Wu, some people were “kicked” out less than a day after entering.

The longest one was only inside for six and a half days.

The gains were also different.

Some people didn’t gain anything, but he heard that a coach once brought out an illusion crystal the size of a basketball.

Its value was no less than the huge light elemental crystal he had obtained.

Mirage Crystals were too rare!

Illusion and Psychic, it wasn’t a heaven and earth element, it was fundamentally different from the five elements, Wind, Ice, Thunder and others.

They belonged to the living element!

There was once a period of time when there was a strong international debate about whether illusion and psychic could be a single attribute.

Until the first pure illusion sprite was discovered.

“I’ve brought everything.”

Su Hao said.

He looked around. There were only two sprites.

Butterfly and Dumb Unicorn.

He rode on the Dumb Unicorn, and Butterfly landed on his head.

Three-in-one.

“We can set off anytime.”

Splash!

Su Hao was wrapped in the Psychic Shield. With just a sound, he had already sunken to the bottom of the water.

The huge water ball kept moving down.

The surrounding light also became dimmer.

Gulp ~

Gulp ~

Occasionally, bubbles emerged. The air inside the huge water ball was maintained above the standard line.

Su Hao felt that he was breathing freely.

The lake was very wide, like the sea, and so was its depth.

Su Hao didn’t know how long the Trading Puppet had been sinking for. He could only occasionally see the school of fish outside the Psychic Ball, or sprites fleeing in fear, before he could feel the passage of time.

Suddenly…

The water ball stopped. Su Hao saw that some light actually appeared in front.

It illuminated the bottom of the sea.

“We’re here,” said Senior Wu. “What do you think it looks like?”

Su Hao pondered for a few seconds before answering, “…Like an underwater viewing room?”

Heavenly King Wu :”…”

It looked pretty similar.

In Su Hao’s eyes was a broken hall.

It was very obvious that it wasn’t formed naturally, but had traces of “carving”.

The building was already badly damaged. Coral reefs and seaweed had already grown beside some buildings… But under the sparkling light, it still looked beautiful.

Trading Puppet approached for a while more, and then stopped.

“I can only send you here,” Heavenly King Wu said. “I’ll leave the Trading Puppet behind. After you come out, it’ll protect you and leave.”

Su Hao saw that there seemed to be a line in front of him that separated the lake water.

Outside the line, seaweed wrapped around the wreckage of the building, looking a little messy.

But inside the line, it looked like a real underwater palace. Even though those buildings were already scrapped, they still looked clean and tidy.

Su Hao took a deep breath and held it in. Then, he patted the Dumb Unicorn and walked forward.

Tap. Tap.

Tap. Tap.

It was as if he had passed through a certain barrier. The lake water was cold, but his eyes could open without any obstacles.

Su Hao thought about it, gathered his courage, and opened his mouth.

“Gurgle, gurgle ~”

A series of bubbles emerged, but he didn’t feel any discomfort.

It was like staying on the ground.

He turned and saw Senior Wu waving at him.

Su Hao also waved goodbye and continued forward.

The ruins were dead silent. Su Hao looked around. The damaged buildings looked strange. He couldn’t determine the purpose of those buildings.

Suddenly,

Butterfly called out, “Gurgle ~!”

Su Hao looked around. At some point, the surrounding buildings were actually no longer damaged.

There were pavilions and terraces, decorated with jade.

It was like a real underwater Dragon Palace.

But the Dragon Palace did not exist.

“According to Senior Wu, all I see now are illusions, just like a mirage.”

Su Hao thought about it and didn’t get off the horse. He just let the Dumb Unicorn move forward and approach one of the buildings.

He reached out and touched the wall of the building, but touched nothing. It was as if he passed through a layer of mist.

“Well, it’s not a complete illusion. That feeling is just like when I inserted my hand into the Bright Night Spirit’s body. There are some obstacles.”

He studied it for a while.

As expected… nothing.

He took out a spare cell phone and tried to use it, but the image taken was empty, there was nothing.

Su Hao had no clue, so he could only explore aimlessly.

One hour.

Two hours.

The running speed of the Dumb Unicorn had already increased from first grade to second grade, then to third grade and fourth grade…

It ran very fast.

Su Hao felt that the surrounding buildings weren’t uniform either…

But he still didn’t discover anything.

“Painting, there’s no way to start. There’s nothing on the interface map, I just have to bring things out…”

He finally understood why bringing out items was one of the indicators of the mission assessment.

Because up till now…

He couldn’t find any physical items at all!

Apart from the solid and indestructible ground, the buildings were fake, the corals were fake, everything was fake! Fake! They were all fake!

“Gurgle, gurgle ~!”

Suddenly…

Three orbs flew out from the top of Butterfly’s head, piercing through a building in front.

The broken wall of the pavilion turned into smoke and attached to the three orbs. It was gray… That pavilion actually didn’t patch back, there was still a hole in the middle.

The orbs had already flown back.

They flew straight to Butterfly’s mouth, it opened its mouth slightly and took a breath.

The gray mist entered its mouth.

Su Hao was stunned for a moment before he immediately opened the interface.

He saw that Butterfly’s spirit power actually…

Increased a little!
