Natalie's magical growth record

Chapter 342 The second temptation in the middle of the night (Part )
  This can't be such a coincidence, right?
  Seeing the aboriginal people in the town closing doors and windows in a panic and blocking the barrier, Ives couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth in astonishment. He couldn't believe that he just casually mentioned a question related to the fog, and that he had caused such a problem. A terrible fog.

Of course, such laughter and tears did not stay on his face for long. After a while, he had come to his senses and without any hesitation, he took Natalie directly back to the corridor of the hotel using [Space Teleportation] magic.

"Whether that strange wind outside will bring fog or not, I think it's always right to be cautious."

He returned to the hotel and quickly took Natalie back to the room where they were.

After doing all this, Ives let go of the little girl's hand with relief and began to recall everything that happened before and after the strange wind blew.

The first was the time when the gust of wind appeared. Although he did not rule out the possibility of coincidence, he was still very cautious and prepared for the worst, thinking that he would discuss follow-up plans with his leader-level mentor when he returned.

It was with this thought that he belatedly noticed that after this separate operation, the leader of the Sage Assistant did not seem to have returned.

what happened? Could it be that she sensed something unusual and decided to advance the second test?
  no, I can not!
  Although this senior often shows a bold and radical side, when it comes to such major events, she will never be such a reckless person, especially after what happened last night.

However, he also knows that there are no absolutes in the world. If the senior's absence is due to a more urgent matter, then should he give up the comfortable environment and go to the rescue.

As a result, just when he spent a lot of time calming down, a slightly tired but familiar figure suddenly appeared beside him.

Without a trace of hesitation, Ives hurriedly put away his unnecessary thoughts and said without hesitation to the figure that suddenly appeared next to him: "Senior, you are back, how is the investigation going well? Did you encounter any danger on the way back? "

"No, what's wrong, Avis, you seem anxious?"

Looking at Natalie who was also hesitant to speak in confusion, Alina couldn't help but laugh, and couldn't help but ask more questions with her hand-painted eyes.

Being called such a name, Avis cleared his throat quite uncomfortably. Seeing that the other party had no intention of giving up questioning, he had no choice but to endure the embarrassment and tell him everything he and Natalie saw on the street. I talked about it roughly.

"So, Avis, you brought Natalie back just because of this wind that may or may not cause an abnormality?"

After listening to the young man's narration, Alina couldn't help but smile more and more. On the one hand, she wanted to remind the other party that excessive vigilance could easily make things stagnate. However, without him understanding the precursors of the entire abnormal fog, she And I have to say that the other party's decision to leave immediately was the right one.

As a result, a rare expression of dumbfounding appeared on her face.

"Okay, since everyone is back early, let's stop our investigation today. We can exchange the information we have obtained with each other."

After saying that, Alina forcibly cheered up and used the [Breath of Wind] magic to move a sofa seat to the two of them, and she sat on the edge of the bed close to the two of them.

"Miss Natalie and I didn't get much information from our investigation. From the sporadic conversations among the town residents, I can confirm that the fog in the town would not always be in an abnormal state before we arrived," he said Here, Ives paused. Seeing that the other party had no intention of interrupting, he added the following answer again, "In addition, I can confirm that every resident in the town has strictly implemented the temporary regulations of the town. Hazard Precautionary Directive.”

"Well, this is indeed a big gain."

After listening to the report and taking corresponding notes, Alina nodded gently and continued to listen to the other party's report with a calm expression.

"And..." Ives twitched the corner of his mouth without any trace, and after thinking for a while, he tried to add, "Also, the residents here believe in the legend left behind hundreds of years ago."

"Okay, I see, is there any more?"

Alina picked up the pen again and started making corresponding notes. After finishing all this, she looked at the young man again, waiting for a new round of reply from him. "No, what about you, senior? Did you discover anything during this process?"

Shaking his head guiltily, Avis hurriedly changed the topic and asked about the other person's experience.

So, Alina briefly mentioned that she was eavesdropping on the conversation between the administrative staff and selected part of it to the two people on the sofa.

In the following period, nothing unusual happened either outside or inside the hotel. Everyone closed the door in a tacit understanding, set up barriers, and waited for possible abnormalities to come.

Unfortunately, what happened was counterproductive. Even if they waited until night and before going to bed, they didn't wait for the third fog to come.

"This cannot continue like this. I think we still need to solve the problem as soon as possible and help the residents of Selia Town return to normal life."

At night, looking out the window at the deserted streets, Ives could not help but feel a new sense of sadness.

"That's what I thought too."

Hearing the other person's self-talk that seemed to be sighing and feeling emotion, Alina came to the young man's side after arranging Natalie to sleep, and expressed the same opinion with a rather complicated mood.

"So senior, when is your next action, I want to participate."

Instead of asking about the complex emotions behind the short words of agreement, Ives finally made up his mind and made a choice after half a day of ideological struggle.

"I'm very grateful that you have such a heart, but my suggestion is that you'd better not participate."

Although there was no direct rejection, the euphemistic words were more unacceptable to him than the direct rejection.

"I know this is not a rational decision, but with the limited number of people in the town, I think I should try my best to contribute as much as possible, and..." He glanced at Alina next to him and saw the other person. Without any grudge, he immediately felt relieved and said in a more firm tone than before, "And as a water magician, I have the confidence to avoid underwater dangers to the greatest extent!"

"If it were just an abnormality underwater, of course I would hand over the task to you without hesitation, but the fact is that it is not that simple. You who are eroded by the fog should understand the meaning of my words more easily than me."

Faced with Avis's decisive words, Alina wanted to nod her head happily, but having personally experienced the mental pollution of the mist, she realized that this mission was not suitable for people with strong mental strength. Therefore, even though Her mental state has sent out a warning signal. Although the things hidden underwater are also very dangerous to her, she must seize the time to collect more information and formulate a plan that can completely solve the whole matter. Let the residents of Selia Town return to their previous state of living and working in peace and contentment.

Thinking of this, Alina's still somewhat shaken heart suddenly became firm again. After putting on her outdoor coat, she without hesitation took out a card and handed it to the young man beside her, solemnly instructing: "One hour If I don’t come back within the next few days, you will try to activate the effect of this card, remember?”

"I understand. Senior, please be more careful."

After hesitating for a moment, Ives finally did not ask the opponent about the effect of this card, but turned all the uncertainty and indecision into a firm nod.

"Then I'm ready to go. I've confirmed that there won't be fog within an hour."

After saying this, Alina immediately activated the [Space Teleportation] magic and once again came to the lake that was shining brightly under the reflection of the bright moonlight. She took out the 'Star Lighthouse' without hesitation and prepared for a new round of battle. Star barrier...
