Rebirth Of The Queen

Chapter 67 – 67. Dark Zore (2)

Some time had passed, the sunlight that to escape from a wall of treehouse managed to wake a girl.

Fu Xie Lan blinked her eyes, she felt like she had just woken up from a very long sleep.

Looking around, not finding Hao's whereabouts made her immediately stand up and look for her.

Where did the creature go?

Fu Xie Lan peeked through the window, the atmosphere outside the treehouse was already light, with no more lightning and thunder. The strange beasts that appeared at night were also nowhere to be found.

The girl jumped down, her mind couldn't calm down thinking about Hao.

Suddenly, something landed in front of her making her flinch in surprise.

"Hao, where have you been?" she asked when she saw a furry beast in front of her. In his mouth, there is a stalk of fruit that looks like a grape.

Without a word, Hao dragged the fruit stalk and then jumped at Fu Xie Lan.

Suddenly the girl caught him and received the Fruit that seemed to be meant for her.

"Is it like that at night here?" she asked, and then began her feet stepping toward the trunk of a tree that lay not far from her. Her hand also moved to pick the fruit that Hao had brought for her.

But when Fu Xie Lan had landed her body on the trunk of the tree, her eyes were distracted with bloodstains all over the place. Taking a closer look, she found that several tree branches had also been broken, with some leaves still intact and also irregular. Like something had happened last night.

But why hadn't she felt anything before?

The memory of what her eyes had witnessed last night swirled in her head.

"Did you do it?" asked Fu Xie Lan quietly.

Hao didn't answer, and jumped back onto her shoulder, closing his eyes, reluctantly to answer Fu Xie Lan's question.

"It's okay if you don't want to answer."

Fu Xie Lan looked at the fruit that had already filled the palm of her hands. This was the first time she had seen such a fruit.

The sweet smell emanating from the fruit made her feel a little hungry.

Is this fruit safe?

Fu Xie Lan split one seed of the fruit, looking at it closely like she was looking for something.

After she felt that the fruit did not contain any harmful substances, Fu Xie Lan dared to eat it. And it turned out delicious.

The combination of sweet and sour filled her taste buds. Just finished a few seeds and that was enough to make her feel full.

They then walked away from that place and headed for the waterfall where she first entered the Dark Zore.

"They then walked away from that place and headed for the waterfall where she first entered the Dark Zore.

"Hao, don't wake me up," she said then took a sitting position with her legs crossed in front of her. The water that fell so fast had soaked her whole body. While on the other hand, Hao was just waiting for Fu Xie Lan by the river, under a tree to be exact. sitting idly by with his eyes fixed on his Miss.

He was used to this, every Wizard who entered the Dark Zore would only do one thing. Cultivation, the purpose for Expand and increase the amount of mana they can use.

Time in Artland World went by very slowly for Wan Lie. It was already late afternoon which meant it had been already passed months in the Dark Zore.

Fu Xie Lan's body hasn't shown anything strange which means that his mother is fine. Even so, the feeling of worry could not calm him down. Especially after he urged the two old men to tell them everything about the Dark Zore.

While Xiao Ying and Huang Bao, did not move from their positions, several bloodstains were visible on their clothes. Yes, both of them received Wan Lie's tantrum a while ago when they said that the Dark Zore was inhabited by high-level magical beasts.

Magical beasts tend to like mana. They will gather and start their lives in a place that has very dense mana.

Xiao Ying who previously didn't know Wan Lie's origins was now very clear. Luckily a glowing mark appeared on Fu Xie Lan's arm which caused Wan Lie to stop his rampage, otherwise, no one would know about their next fate.

Even though Wan Lie's demon strength was still relatively weak, the two of them still didn't fight back and just surrendered.

A pyramid-shaped protective magic with Fu Xie Lan's body at the center, each end of the pyramid occupied by Wan Lie, Huang Bao, and Xiao Ying. They did it to keep Fu Xie Lan's body condition stable.

Suddenly an enormous mana wave disrupted the shape of the protective pyramid. Several colors of light could be seen wrapping around Fu Xie Lan's body so that her physical body could not be seen clearly.

Wan Li panicked.

Huang Bao who saw the blue light mixed with green and brown colors managed to make him fall into the water without realizing it.

It was a wizard's mana.

What happened? Didn't Fu Xie Lan previously not have the wizard race's mana?

Meanwhile, Xiao Ying was stunned for a moment. Then exerted all the mana in his body to prevent the worst that might happen.

Yes, if one absorbs too much mana in the dark zore then there will be severe damage to one's physical body in the artland world.

He still clearly remembers, Huang Bao at that time also experienced the same thing, lucky some ancestors who were still alive at that time helped him, otherwise his friend would not be here now.

He had never thought this far before. Even though Fu Xie Lan's mana he felt was so great, he never expected that she would be able to absorb that much mana into her body in such a short time.

The mana surrounding Fu Xie Lan's body kept getting stronger and denser, Huang Bao immediately returned to his position. Following Xiao Ying's directions and immediately channeling all his mana within his means, so did Wan Lie.

While on the other hand, Wan Lie had already cursed himself many times for letting Fu Xie Lan go unattended.

The three men were unable to see what had happened and what shape Fu Xie Lan's body looked like because of the thick fog of light that enveloped her.

"Uncle, how can I catch up with Xie Lan?"

Xiao Ying and Huang Bao just shook their heads, not knowing what to do. From start to now they never thought that something like this would happen.

They refocused on maintaining the shape of the protective pyramid that already contained very dense mana from the three men.

Dark Zore

__________

One year had passed, yet Fu Xie Lan had not moved from where she was.

Now, the situation is very dark, just like on Fu Xie Lan's first night in that place. A wide variety of creatures including dragons roam the sky.

Fu Xie Lan's body was getting lighter day by day, there was no longer any feeling of hunger or thirst. The more mana her body absorbed the more comfortable she felt.

She never thought that absorbing mana would feel like this.

A blazing light like a giant fire wrapped around her body, getting bigger every day.

And it succeeded in luring all kinds of magical beasts towards it.

Not just tonight, but since a few days after Fu Xie Lan told Hao not to wake her up.

The greater the mana light that enveloped Fu Xie Lan, the more magical beasts were attracted to her.

On the other hand, Hao who was currently standing on a large rock by the river was staring in disbelief at the several carcasses of the magical beasts he had slaughtered a moment ago.

Suddenly a swarm of dragons with a very large number headed towards them, made him sigh heavily.

If only he now had access to speak to his Miss to rest for a while, perhaps the dragons would not have headed towards them.

Currently, in the Dark Zore, Fu Xie Lan was already the center of enormous mana.

And if she still hadn't stopped, maybe he would have been unable to protect her from the dragons.
