Fairy Tale: Little Red Riding Hood's Wolf Mentor

Chapter 154 Giant Garden
"Wow, how big is this garden..."

Pushing aside the leaves, there were countless flowers and bushes ahead. The height of these plants posed a great obstacle to Lake and Poro's wayfinding.

The height of the trees is several times higher than the ground.

Any tree, even the thinnest one, is as thick as three people can hug. The shrubs, thorns and flowers that should be low have now been transformed into lush forests under some inexplicable magical changes.

"Ah, looks a little lost."

"Polo, is the smell of blood you just smelled gone?"

"No, this floating island, although located at the top of the vines, but... various parts of it are drifting on the clouds."

Poro looked around and spoke slowly.

This floating island is not a whole piece of ground debris, but is made up of countless large and small lands. It is flowing slowly on the sea of ​​clouds.

This is also the reason why although Lake and Poro climbed up the vines, they lost sight of Jack.

"But the plants here all have some magic."

The Poro stretched out his claws and ripped off a petal next to it that was a circle larger than his own. He sniffed it and said, "It's the same as the one inside the magic vine."

"Same?"

Lake's eyes widened. "So we don't have to look for vines. We can just choose these plants?"

"But the magic in these plants is nowhere near as great as that in the vines—both in concentration and quality."

The Giant Garden is shrouded in thick clouds and mist.

In the moonlight, it shines like mercury.

It was beautiful, but under the cover of clouds, even if Lake and Poro climbed to the top of the tree, they could not see the scenery farther away. As for finding people, it was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

As for the possible existence of the Giant Castle, there was not even a shadow of it.

"The fog is a bit heavy at night."

Poro took a deep breath. It would be daytime in a few hours, so it would be better to wait until daytime to look for it. When the sun comes out, there will be much less light and fog.

"Ah."

Lake also nodded, and the two of them found a tree that was about five people thick. The Star Killing Sword flashed and cut a hole in the tree.

Entering in, Poro lit a wooden stick at the entrance of the tree hole and entered in.

Green and red vines rose from the ground and wrapped around the cave entrance, blocking out the moisture from the outside.

"Let's eat something first. We might have to wander around in the woods for a while tomorrow."

As Poro spoke, various foods appeared on the ground in front of him.

This floating island was much larger than Lake and Poro had previously imagined, and much wider than what they saw from the ground by looking up.

Perhaps due to the influence of magic, these floating islands rise and fall on the sea of ​​clouds.

But it doesn't block too much sunlight.

If we use the traversal method to search on this floating island, the efficiency and time spent will be too high.

"Take a break, there are only a few hours left."

After dinner, Poro and Lake leaned against a tree hole. In the dim environment, Poro suddenly saw something in his bag suddenly light up.

His pupils shrank, he opened his bag, and gently took out the glowing object.

No... there is not just one light, but two lights of different colors.

Two gems.

It was the gems found on Seven during the battle in the Poren capital. One was a spherical orange-red gem, and the other was a slightly sharp green gem. Their light quickly faded after being taken out by Poro.

"Huh? Why is that?"

Poro sensed it subtly, and he could not feel anything unusual about the green gem, but the spherical orange gem, which contained a Boren-style formation, was still functioning normally.

After obtaining the formation used to control the Giant Skeleton Guards, Poro analyzed it.

It is not generated from gems, but is made by humans.

The most important of these is the energy contained within the gem. In other words, the special nature of the gem itself, combined with the Boren formation, gives it the ability to control the Giant Skeleton Guards.

But where did the gem itself come from?

What do colors and the energy they contain represent?
Why would Seven hold it?
But the journey was always very tight, and Poro never had time to analyze the magic.

"But, I don't know if the flash just now is related to the Giant King."

Poro thought for a moment, put the gem back into his backpack, leaned against Lake, and slowly closed his eyes.

The two of them had been traveling for a long time and knew that they could not fall into a deep sleep in such an environment, so even when they rested, they were in a light sleep.

As long as there is any sign of trouble, he will wake up instantly.

But for some reason, this time, the mist outside the tree hole grew even thicker, and Lake and Poro's spirits seemed to be drawn along with the mist towards the depths of the floating island...

One orange-red and the other green, two gems, in the darkness, flickered faintly like stars.

"Huh? Where is this?!"

Poro opened his eyes instantly and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Lake beside him.

"This place seems like a dream, some kind of spiritual space."

Poro spoke. From the mind-constructed formation in the magic book and the previous Dancing Abyss, Lake and Poro had a sense of déjà vu about their current situation.

The surroundings appear dim, but gradually more details emerge.

An extremely tall palace. As the shadows dissipated, Lake and Poro saw that the red and white dome covered with murals above their heads was hundreds of meters high.

All around, there are thick pillars covered with carvings, each of which is thicker than a human tower.

They are arranged neatly, extending into the distant fog.

This is the giant's palace!
This thought immediately came to Lake and Poro's minds.

But why are we here?
Poro calmed himself down and felt that this summons was not particularly forced.

It seemed that he only needed to release his spiritual thoughts to leave, which made him feel a lot more relaxed.

"Boom - boom -"

Lake and Poro were on guard, and at this moment, the ground began to tremble in the distant clouds, and huge footsteps were heard.

Behind the fog, a huge figure gradually emerged.

His upper body was still hidden in the thick clouds at the ceiling, and it was shadowy and unclear. Lake and Poro could only see two legs and feet like pillars exposed under the rolling clouds!

Giant King!
Lake and Poro instantly understood the identity of the black shadow. Lake tightly grasped the Star Killer Sword at her waist and slowly unsheathed the sword.

It flashed with silver starlight as if it had seen an old enemy.

The mountain-like figure slowly loomed and pressed down, like a heavy mountain peak pressing down on the roof. A head like the black sun began to emerge from the shadow of the dome.

Two moon-like red and white stars broke through the curtain—

Those were two eyes belonging to the Giant King. Under the chaotic and surging clouds, no emotion or expression could be seen.
