Chapter 141 A sword with outstanding effect
"Pah——"
"Uh-?!"
The man woke up from the pain. After opening his eyes, the man felt that his vision seemed to be affected to a certain extent.
Why is there only a crack left in the world I see?
And...my eyes hurt so much...
"Are you awake?"
The man looked over with some difficulty. What he saw was a kind-looking old man sitting in front of him. His pure white clothes were reflected by the surrounding crystals... Crystal?
crystal! ! !
Yes! They should have been caught by those weird crystal bugs in the underground ruins, and then...then...
"Ah! You! What are you!"
The man looked horrified, thinking that the other person was an aborigine here.
She is dressed in snow-white, which is inexplicably matched with the dazzling crystals around her, and even her skin is very white. She looks like she lives in a place where the sun never shines.
"Calm down, kid, I am a scholar, you can call me Gandalf..."
"……scholar?"
"Yes, I found this place and found that you were trapped inside the crystal... Can you tell me what you encountered?"
"us……"
As if thinking of something extremely terrible, the man's body trembled, and then he began to talk about their experiences intermittently.
From being forcibly recruited by the Ministry of Magic at the beginning, to being attacked by Kraken when entering the ruins and the team scattered, to when they mistakenly entered the underground space and were sneak attacked because their vision was affected, his last memory before comatose was of crystal bugs crawling towards him. come over……
"Um……"
Adam nodded, smiled and said to the man:
"So do you feel uncomfortable now?"
"Well... apart from the lack of strength, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with me."
"OK."
Adam nodded and stood up from the crystal:
"It's basically the same as what you said last time. I'll ask another one."
man:"???"
Letting the man fall into a baby-like sleep, Adam turned around and raised his sword, breaking the crystal that sealed the young woman.
"Pah——"
"Hmm...?"
The woman opened her eyes in a burst of pain, and found in confusion that her cheek seemed to feel bursts of swelling and pain.
"Are you awake?"
…
After some questioning, the two people's oral accounts were basically consistent, with only one difference - the middle-aged man said that the person sent by the Ministry of Magic to monitor them was a young woman, while the young woman said that the person sent by the Ministry of Magic to monitor them was a middle-aged man. .
Oh ho~ It’s Rashomon.
Fortunately, Adam didn't care who was an employee of the Ministry of Magic. He did the test just to confirm whether getting people out of the crystal would cause any problems to the person's physical or mental health.
Seeing as the two of them are still interested in fighting each other, it should be fine.
Adam rescued Eugene's parents with a sword, put them aside to wait for them to wake up, and then began to study the crystals and luminous balls next to them.
A middle-aged man with puffy eyes and a young woman with bruised cheeks: #%\u0026#￥…
"What the hell is this?"
Adam cut off the top of a crystal column and shook it slightly, causing the liquid inside to ripple. Relying on the protection of the shield, Adam even stretched out his finger to dip a little. The liquid was colorless and transparent, and felt slightly more viscous than water, a bit like...milk tea?
It seems that all the crystals in this space are the same. There is only a hard shell on the outside, and the inside is full of that strange liquid. Even the bugs are the same. They are not internal organs but this kind of liquid.
The internal structures of crystals and bugs are the same. Does that mean that these bugs and crystals are essentially the same? Are crystals alive?
"Well..."
Adam turned his head and it was Eugene's father who woke up.
"Hello, is this Mr. Jackson Crowl?"
"Forehead?"
When he saw Adam, Jackson was still in a state of confusion. He did not answer Adam's words, but subconsciously looked around him and found his wife Melinda, who was still in a coma.
The comatose wife, the crystals around... Only then did Jackson remember what had happened before, and looked at Adam:
"Who are you……?"
After seeing clearly that Adam was a child, the vigilance in Jackson's words and eyes gradually turned into hesitation, dullness, and even a little suspicion——
Doubt life, doubt your own cognition, memory... and vision.
"My name is Adam, and I am Eugene's classmate."
"Eugene's...classmate?"
"Eugene wrote to ask about his grandma because you wrote that you would visit him at Christmas, but his grandma said that you were dead... A lot of things happened during this period. Anyway, I found this place, and now it is Came to save you."
Speaking of this, Adam couldn't help but frown. No matter whether something happened to Eugene's parents or not, the outside world couldn't receive news. Those who went to Eugene's grandma to deliver the body, and those who wrote letters to Eugene, and so on. Who is he?
"Come...save us?"
Jackson reread it a little dullly, and Adam was even a little worried about his mental state.
But this really cannot be blamed on Jackson, but what Adam said was a bit too outrageous... Because the parents of his classmates were in danger, he ran into dangerous ruins to rescue people, not to mention how Adam did it, Is this friendship just a little too indestructible?
Even Hufflepuff isn't that outrageous, right? You must know that the couple were once Hufflepuffs... Oh, by the way, their son must also be a Hufflepuff, right?
Jackson felt a little guilty inside.
For a moment, Jackson couldn't even think about Adam being a liar, because liars would not make up such outrageous reasons to win people's trust, but he still wanted to confirm it one last time.
"Um...do you have any way to prove your identity?"
After saying this, Jackson saw Adam looking at him with a somewhat complicated look, which seemed to contain a little condemnation?
"Good question. When I asked Eugene this question before, he was silent for a long time, and then told me that he had no tokens to prove his identity. He had never even seen you...at least not in his memory."
Jackson wanted to say that he and Melinda went home once when Eugene was two years old, but swallowed his words after hearing Adam's addition.
Melinda, who had just woken up next to her, couldn't help but blame herself.
"This photo should barely be able to prove my identity? Fortunately, you don't look much different from the photo."
Adam took out the photo and then thought about it:
"Oh, by the way, there are also the birthday gifts and the Christmas gifts that Eugene gave me over the years. They are said to be the things you brought back. You should be able to recognize them?"
With an indescribable mentality, when Eugene gave gifts, he mainly wanted to show off to Tian Xinxin, which was shared by the four brothers in the dormitory.
No matter what Eugene's mood was when he gave these gifts, Jackson's heart couldn't help but twitch when he saw these things, especially when he saw the bottle of good luck spring water.
Even Melinda couldn't help but sit up.
——That is most likely a real good luck spring water!
"I think this thing must be a fake."
Then Adam's words struck a sword directly into the hearts of the two of them, with an extraordinary effect, and they were immediately silenced:
"After all, if this is true, then you should have bathed in the fountain of good luck, and you would not have been forcibly recruited by the Ministry of Magic and locked up here... Most people will not be so unlucky."
After saying this, Adam put away the bottle of "lucky spring water" again. After all, in Adam's eyes, no matter what kind of spring it was, the friendship attached to it was the most precious value of this bottle of spring water.
