Chapter 223 - Magician ◇ Butterfly (Second Update)
It was as if the world was spinning. With another look, they were already in a vast and grand hall.
Under his feet were neatly paved stone slabs.
On both sides were stone pillars that required several people to encircle and were more than a hundred meters tall.
There were a total of eight huge stone pillars. On them were lifelike giant dragon sculptures, coiled around the stone pillars.
Every dragon was hundreds of feet long and had dragon horns. There was hair from the dragon’s neck to its back, but the scales under the dragon’s chin were growing forward.
The huge dragons on the two huge stone pillars at the front were facing him, one on the left and one on the right.
Those two pairs of dragon eyes the size of cars looked straight over, as if emitting endless pressure.
Even the Dumb Unicorn who was sitting down turned into an obedient unicorn.
The horse stopped stamping and became quiet.
Su Hao was also a little scared, just a little.
He kept convincing himself that what was fake, was all fake.
“It’s indeed fake. Those aren’t even stone sculptures, they’re just mirages!”
After confirming that it was fake, Su Hao wasn’t afraid anymore.
He sat up straight, patted the Dumb Unicorn, and arrived under a huge stone pillar.
He reached out and poked it.
It poked right in, but it felt…
The feeling was different.
When he poked it in, the feeling became a little sticky, and the power hindering him became stronger.
“Since the gray fog is a kind of treasure, then there’s very likely to be an inferior and superior difference.”
Su Hao felt that the stone pillar in front of him was long and round, and couldn’t fit a grill, but it was really…
It’s excellent tasting, gurgle ~!
Butterfly tapped a little with its orb and wrote a five-star evaluation.
It proved that the taste was really very good.
Su Hao also opened the interface. Seeing that its spirit power had increased again, he couldn’t help but drag down the evolution column.
As expected, the success rate of evolution also increased, but it’s still not enough…
“What I really lack is attainments in illusion abilities, not spirit power.”
One hour, two hours…
Butterfly removed the first stone pillar on the right and a corner below.
It was full, and its spirit power had already risen to more than 19,000.
In a short period of time, its spirit power had increased sharply, causing creases to constantly appear in the air around it, as if spiritual storms were brewing.
But it also grasped it very quickly. In just a few hours, it managed to control its explosive power.
Apart from his slightly weaker control, his strength had already been completely restrained and no longer leaked out.
Su Hao’s team continued to explore.
The palace was very big, with front, middle, and side halls.
Apart from some decorations in the hall, there were also sprites here that could be ‘eaten’.
Lobster Soldiers and Crab Generals cruised in the hall.
Su Hao even saw a big yellow fish with hands and feet, holding a big steel fork.
Was it probably the Yellow Fish General?
In the Union’s illustrated book, he didn’t find any similar sprites.
And because they were all illusory existences, the interface map was also empty.
But the scenes in front of him still made Su Hao click his tongue in wonder.
“This place is definitely not just the second level of the illusion.”
Senior Wu had given him some information about the Mirage Ruins.
The first level of the Towering Clam Pavilion was basically not bad, but it did not have the description of the Dragon Palace’s main hall and the dragon circling the pillar.
Without a doubt…
“Because I found the door, I directly skipped the second, third, and other illusions and arrived at the core area of the Mirage Ruins?
“Since it’s the core area, then, then what about the treasures?”
“How can the Dragon Palace not have any treasures? I’m clearly not that unlucky ~!”
He passed through countless halls and arrived in an empty hall.
Suddenly…
Whoosh!
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Waves rolled and waves of pressure enveloped down.
Su Hao looked up and saw that there was actually a huge dragon coiling above the hall!
Its appearance was similar to the dragons printed on the stone pillars outside.
Red mane grew on its body, and it was similarly hundreds of feet long, but much more realistic!
When it moved slightly, the surrounding lake water started to surge violently.
The whole hall seemed to have fallen into a waterspout. The hall was shaking, turning into hazy mist.
The waves of violent water rushed in front of Su Hao.
Dumb Unicorn immediately released an azure-blue water shield, protecting it.
“What kind of sprite is that?!
“Monarch rank?”
Su Hao opened the interface and took a look. However, it was still empty.
It was still fake!
“But if it’s just an illusion, how did it affect the water flow?”
Above the hall, the huge dragon slowly moved. It breathed out smoke.
The moment it opened its mouth, countless shadows of houses and pavilions appeared. With a gulp, the mirage shattered like bubbles.
Su Hao finally understood.
That dragon… was automatic.
Perhaps his arrival triggered some kind of mechanism, making the giant dragon virtual image start moving.
He was about to say something.
Suddenly, Butterfly flew up from the top of his head, and invisible spirit power shook around it.
The three orbs also surrounded it and spun with a whoosh.
After shaking off the shock waves, Butterfly flew in and stared at the dragon.
Su Hao pressed down on the head of the Dumb Unicorn and watched quietly.
Above.
The dragon moved faster and faster, leaving only an afterimage.
Rumbling, waves surged.
Countless mirages appeared around the dragon, disappeared, appeared, and disappeared.
The scene above kept changing.
Finally…
After some time.
As if the sky had cleared after the rain, peace was restored in the hall. All the phenomena disappeared, and the shadow of the huge dragon with the red mane and scales also disappeared without a trace.
Only an orb appeared on the spot.
A milky white orb the size of a pebble.
It slowly landed.
Signs also appeared on the interface.
It was a treasure.
Su Hao held it in his hand and examined it carefully.
“Mirage Energy Orb…”
“Could that hundred-feet long dragon be the legendary Sea Serpent?”
He wasn’t too sure.
He still needed to test what the Mirage Energy Orb could do.
At this moment, Butterfly was still hovering in mid-air with her eyes closed.
Before long, one, two, three, four appeared around it… There were more than ten small butterflies in total.
They started dancing.
Unique skill “Illusion Clone” was a type of illusion unique skill.
Not only could it deceive one’s vision, it could also deceive one’s perception. Its confusion effect was very strong, and it could shake off many streets from the conventional unique skill “Body Facade”.
But…
“The illusion clone is still just an illusion, it clearly doesn’t have a physical body!”
In Su Hao’s eyes, those equally cute butterfly butterflies brought with them water currents when they danced.
It was like…
Transformation into reality!
More than ten Phantom Butterflies scattered.
Countless beautiful flowers appeared around each butterfly.
From a flower bud to blooming and then withering, it only took a breath’s time.
Su Hao vaguely smelled the fragrance of flowers.
The strange phenomenon around Butterfly lasted for more than ten minutes before gradually disappearing.
It flew down and landed on top of his head.
“Gurgle, gurgle.”
Its voice was a little tired, but its big eyes were especially lively.
Su Hao felt that Butterfly was a little different now.
He couldn’t tell where the difference was.
So, he opened the interface.
Sprite: Butterfly (Elite-level limit)
Spiritual Force: 13,000
Spiritual Power: 20,000
Unique skill:… Omitted… Illusion Clone → Mirror Clone, Mirage
Special: Illusionary Transformation
He discovered it!
At the same time, Su Hao also saw the evolution column below.
Reverie Butterfly → Fairy Butterfly (unlocked): 100% evolution success rate
The ultimate goal was completed!
As for the Mirage Ruins…
Su Hao and Butterfly looked at each other and saw the “¥¥” in each other’s eyes.
How was one Mirage Energy Orb enough!
He thought and was about to continue searching the ruins.
Suddenly…
The scene in front of him changed drastically.
The grand and majestic hall had already disappeared.
In its place were the ruins from the beginning.
He touched it. It was solid.
“I… got kicked out?”
—
My fill-in-the-blank question appeared again.
The final question before evolution: Is the evolved form of Reverie Butterfly Fairy Butterfly or Butterfly Fairy?
A. Fairy Butterfly
B. Butterfly Fairy
There was no C.
(In any case, Su Hao was the one who changed it anyway, it has nothing to do with my pen and ink wanting to eat booksㄟ(▔,▔)ㄏ)
