Chapter 172 The End

The story on the stage continues to advance.

A girl named Liuliya and the witch Padora are heading towards the distant Kingdom of Typhon.

Along the way, they encountered many accidents, such as robbers holding sharp knives blocking the road, or monsters attracted by the movement of the carriage attacking the carriage.

Or encountering bad weather, causing the carriage to break down, etc.

However, what is surprising is that no matter what situation she encounters, the witch named Padora can easily solve these troubles.

She taught the girl how to identify herbs and asked her to serve as an assistant to help her refine some unknown potions on the road.

In addition, Padora would regularly draw some of the girl's blood for research on the grounds of checking her physical condition.

It seems that she has not forgotten the fact that the girl's body was covered with dragon scales.

It's just whether the other party has researched something from the blood. The script here adopts a method of leaving suspense and does not reveal it to the audience below the stage.

The time in the stage play flies by in such a relaxed and peaceful atmosphere.

In less than ten minutes, the leaves fell in the autumn wind and the snow melted.

More than a year has passed since Liu Liya left the small village in her hometown.

In this plot, the director of the stage play used a very clever technique.

Because the witch Padora didn't like to go to human gathering places, the two never entered any city or village on the way.

There is only a carriage moving forward on the stage, and the passage of time is shown with the help of lights and brief arrangements of fallen leaves, snow scenes, etc.

This not only greatly saves the time of setting up the stage, but also keeps the audience's emotions from being disconnected.

And it reduces the plot of communicating with other people on the road that should logically exist.

It is precisely because of this that the girl Liuliya gradually got used to living in the wild.

And every time she picked herbs, the witch Padora kept whispering in her ears about the words she mistook herbs for and ordinary weeds.

In addition, Padora would repeatedly explain the effects of various herbs every time she made a potion.

This allowed Liu Liya to continuously improve her knowledge of pharmacology.

But regarding the name and purpose of the potion, Padora never explained it to the girl.

But over time, based on the effects of those herbs, Liuliya herself was able to deduce the usefulness of some of the medicines.

Obviously, this was done intentionally by the other party.

This made Liuliya gradually realize that the witch living in the dark jungle might not be as terrifying as she imagined.

"Is it raining again?"

“It rains so much this season that it’s annoying.”

The witch Padora sat in the carriage, raised her hand to push open the window inside the carriage and looked at the rain outside and said.

"."

Liu Liya didn't speak. In fact, she seemed to be feeling a little uncomfortable since the morning.

In the background, the narrator's words make the information clear, and then the two leading actors on the stage are allowed to play their part.

"are you sick?"

Padora frowned slightly. She stood up and came to Liu Liya. She reached out and pinched her cheek, looking around.

This is not the first time Liu Liya has fallen ill. In the past, as long as Padola took a bottle of medicine, she didn't need to wait until the next day, it only took one afternoon to cure her illness.

But this time it seems different from before.

As if she was suffering some kind of pain, Liuliya frowned.

Her consciousness was a little blurred due to the high temperature. Even if Padora pinched her cheek and shook it from side to side, her eyes were still blurry.

"Damn, it's that curse."

Padora realized something and looked at the dragon egg placed in the corner of the carriage.

For more than a year, even if the curse that leaked out of the seal every day was very small, if it accumulated too much, it would still cause harm to Liuliya, who was an ordinary person.

Without wasting any time, Padola immediately picked up Liuliya's body and placed it in the center of the carriage. Then she held a staff and used a special powder to construct a magic circle around Liuliya.

Taking out a bottle of bright red potion from her arms, Padora raised her head and drank it.

The lights on the stage went out, and after a brief blackout, the figures of Liuliya and Padola reappeared under the lights.

The curse finally passed without any danger.

When Liuliya woke up from her drowsiness, she saw Padora sitting in front of the campfire, having released the transformation spell and cooking dinner.

"I"

Liu Liya opened her mouth to ask something, but saw the other party hand over the food without saying a word.

The steaming soup instantly aroused the appetite of Liuliya's body that had just recovered from the curse.

"I said, before you die, I will help you remove the curse."

Seeing the girl's confused look, Padora said solemnly: "This is part of the deal."

"."

After a moment of silence, Liuliya took the food from Padola and said with a sincere smile: "Thank you."

".rest early."

Padora turned her head and said nothing.

There was no words for a night, and a new day came soon.

The only difference from usual is that starting from today, Padora will no longer use transformation to hide her appearance, and will ask Liuliya to drink a bottle of her special potion every day.

According to her, this potion can stimulate the dragon's power hidden in Liuliya's body.

This can effectively improve the resistance to the curse. Although it still cannot be completely removed, at least it can allow her to persist for a longer period of time.

In this way, the carriage continued to travel for more than a month.

The wet and cold rainy season has left, and now comes the scorching hurricane season.

It was also during this season that the two came to the Kingdom of Typhon, where a festival was being held, and learned from the local villagers about a giant dragon that appeared in the southern mountains of the Kingdom of Typhon a year ago.

In addition, in the Kingdom of Typhon, it seems that a saint (legendary) level mage has also been welcomed to participate in the celebration of the royal capital.

The two of them didn't pay attention to the latter message. After hurriedly thanking the villagers, they headed to the southern mountains of the Typhon Kingdom. They continued to inquire about news related to the dragon in the villages near the southern mountains, gradually narrowing the search scope.

Finally, after spending nearly half a year, the two successfully found an artificial cave and found a body in it.

According to Padora's repeated verifications, this dead body was the one who cast the curse on the dragon egg.

And his fatal injury came from the slap of the dragon's claw.

It is from here that the roles of the two leading actors diverge.

Padora believed that the person who imposed the curse was dead and that the dragon egg was hopeless. She wanted to kill the young dragon in the egg to eliminate the curse and save Liuliya.

Liuliya, on the other hand, thought that things might turn around and wanted to continue trying.

In the end, Padora was convinced by Liuliya and could only continue to look for a way to lift the curse with her.

At this time, the two of them recalled that the Typhon Kingdom welcomed a legendary saint to the royal capital due to the celebration, so they headed back home and headed towards the royal capital of the Typhon Kingdom.

On the way, the curse on Liu Liya broke out again. There was no way, the two of them could only stop temporarily to deal with the curse.

When they arrived at the royal capital, the celebration was already over.

Fortunately, the saint seemed to have something to do in the capital and was still staying in the church in the capital.

In front of the entrance of the church, Padola refused the request to enter the church with Liuliya.

She said that it was already very risky for her to enter the crowded royal capital, and it was absolutely impossible to enter the church.

She also expressed that after entering the church, she hoped that Liuliya would not reveal her existence.

Although Liuliya felt a little regretful about this, she could understand it. After agreeing to Padora's request, she entered the Royal Capital Church alone.

As soon as the scene turned, an old man wearing a luxurious satin robe appeared on the left side of the stage, while Liuliya pushed open the wooden door from the right side of the stage and walked towards the old man's location. Without wasting the tight time of the stage script, the saint immediately asked Liuliya why she came here after seeing her appear.

Liuliya, on the other hand, concealed the story of the witch Padora and told her that she was rescued by the dragon and that the dragon egg entrusted to her by the other party before her death was also stained with a curse.

"So that's why you came here."

There was a look of surprise on the saint's face, and then he explained to Liuliya.

The mage who was killed by the dragon was actually his apprentice.

The reason why he stayed here was because he was looking for the person who killed his apprentice.

But now, the dragon is dead, and seeking revenge may be meaningless.

The unhatched baby dragon in the egg is innocent, and he can purify the curse from it.

Just as a price, he hoped that Liuliya could send the body of his poor apprentice.

"no problem!"

This was a very reasonable request, and Liuliya agreed without hesitation.

After leaving the Royal Capital Church, she found Padora, who was already a little impatient, and told her all about the process of communicating with the saint in the church.

"."

Padora was a little silent, seeming to be thinking about whether the saint was trustworthy.

"We will be able to lift the curse soon and then go home!" the girl said looking quite excited.

"Hmph, this is not good news for me." Seeing the girl's happy look, Padora temporarily put aside her worries and said with a soft hum.

They had brought the mage's body with them on the carriage.

The main thing is that Padora has to take it with her.

Originally, she planned to try to see if she could use channeling, soul-calling and other methods to resurrect his corpse as an undead, and then order him to lift the curse.

But now it seems that there is no need to try.

Taking the mage's body and the dragon egg, Liuliya returned to the church again.

"Alas, my poor apprentice."

Looking at the corpse with only bones left, the saint said with a slightly sad expression.

He searched the corpse carefully, and Liuliya felt a little weird from the movements.

"strangeness."

The saint murmured in a low voice, then looked at Liuliya and asked, "Didn't you have anything else on you when you found him?"

"No." Although Liuliya felt a little strange, she still answered seriously.

"Maybe it was taken away by a wild beast." The saint's face suddenly became very ugly.

"Show me the dragon egg," he said.

"."

Liu Liya took a step back, and a sudden sense of crisis filled her heart.

At this moment, she suddenly realized that she had ignored a problem all along.

That was the question of why the giant dragon and the mage were fighting.

Oh?

Finally the villain will appear.

Below the stage, Yun Mu's spirits lifted.

In the background music that gradually became more and more intense.

The saint's expression became very ferocious. He looked at Liuliya and pressed towards her step by step with a sense of oppression.

Liuliya kept retreating with the dragon egg on her back, and the legendary pressure kept oppressing her nerves.

"I said, give it to me!" the saint said word by word.

The next second, a sudden frost appeared, and the saint's body was suddenly frozen by a blue ice block.

"Let's go!" Padora appeared in the church, took Liu Liya's hand with one hand, and tried to escape from the church.

"Damn thief, give me back my dragon stone!"

The saint who was frozen in the ice roared angrily, and his body suddenly expanded!

He broke free from the ice, red wings sprouted from his back, and his entire left body was covered in tough dragon scales.

"It's the dragon feasting ceremony, this lunatic!" Padora said with an ugly expression.

The so-called feasting refers to gathering for a feast, entertaining guests, and inviting people to enjoy food.

The dragon feasting ceremony refers to a ritual in which one gains the power of a dragon by eating its heart.

The Saint has been stagnant at the legendary level for a long time and has never been able to get a chance to break through.

Seeing that his lifespan was about to run out, this guy actually had the idea of ​​becoming a dragon.

As long as you transform into a dragon through the dragon feast ceremony, you can gain a longer lifespan even if you fail to advance to the epic level!

At this point, the plot of the stage play The Song of Seleuria is now clear.

In order to get a chance to break through the epic, the saint wanted to perform a dragon feast ceremony to transform his body into a dragon.

And his apprentice had the same idea as his master, and in some way, stole the Saint's Dragon Transformation Stone.

However, due to lack of strength, he was eventually killed in the process of hunting the dragon.

This leads to the plot at the beginning of the main plot of Seleuria's Song.

However, there is still an unsolved mystery.

That is, where did the Dragon Transformation Stone go?

It can't really be taken away by animals in the wild.

"Hmph, this guy, if he didn't transform into a dragon, I would still be afraid of him, but he actually transforms into a dragon, then there's nothing to say."

Above the stage, Padora looked at the saint who had lost his mind due to his incomplete transformation into a dragon, and mocked.

Padola took out two bottles of medicine and a bottle of dark red blood from her arms, handed the bottle of blood and a bottle of medicine to Liuliya, and said:

"Next, you will be the main attacker, and I will assist."

"Drinking this bottle of potion will maximize the power of the dragon stone in your body. Then get close to the saint and feed this bottle of your blood into his mouth. Do you understand?"

"Ah?" What responded to her was Liuliya's confused cry.

 ps: Although no one complained, I still explain it.

  I describe the stage play in detail mainly to give everyone the feeling that the protagonist is really watching a stage play.

  That’s how to put it.

  After taking on the role of the protagonist and watching the content of the text version of the stage play, the protagonist is also watching the content on the stage.

  And it is precisely because I have to write a stage play that, well, I got stuck on this chapter and it took me so long to write it.

  However, even though I carefully thought about it and rejected many plots, I finally chose this section.

  It just satisfies the logic and is fairly self-consistent.

  About whether the stage play is good to watch.

  I think in Yun Mu’s eyes, the real stage play must be good.

  It's just a pity that my writing style limits the performance of the text version of the stage play.

  But I really try my best to mess with it.

  faint.
