As just mentioned, at this time, they were wearing swimming rings, but they were using the early morning sunlight to observe the shadows under the water.
Andasu left the swimming ring and prepared to dive, but was suddenly pulled into the water by a force. When she surfaced again, she had choked on several mouthfuls of water and was coughing constantly.
The girls looked at the bottom of the water in surprise, thinking that the situation was caused by something underwater.
Aqua laughed triumphantly.
"Is this what you're here for?"
"What? Are you feeling bad? It's just a small punishment from the gods. Who told her to steal my toy?"
Li Ang was helpless. This god was powerful enough, but since he was only so willful as to play a prank, he couldn't say anything. He thought to himself that he would go and comfort Andasu later.
"What's underwater? Can the Water Dragon God see it?" Li Ang asked.
"They can find it themselves. It's a good thing to leave a surprise."
At this time, Shuilong acted like a mature adult again.
Leon shook his head, wondering whether he should dive as well. Farina, who had been silent next to him, pointed in another direction. Over there, Zoe was falling from the sky, flapping a pair of translucent wings that looked like cicada wings but were shaped like a butterfly.
Li Ang frowned. If he was not mistaken, where did she suddenly appear from among the flowers?
Teleportation? If you can master teleportation between plants after resonating with the Creation Tree Star Soul, it can be very useful in certain environments.
She smiled and flew towards Leon, and only then did he see clearly what she was wearing in this posture.
The two-piece garments cover an area not even as large as the swimsuit, and are surrounded by vine-like edges, decorated with winding, upward emerald green or gold patterns. The arms, wrists and ankles are all decorated with gold and vine-like rings, like dancers dancing on the stage, or like legendary figures in the artist's oil paintings.
At first glance, it is extremely delicate and beautiful, but if you look closely, it is really much more outrageous than the clothes she wore last night. Is this the fairy in the forest?
Li Ang twirled his chin and his eyes met Zoe's. Both of them seemed to have thought of something incredible and felt a little awkward.
But she still floated into his arms.
261. Things at the Bottom of the Lake
In this pose, Zoe seemed to carry the fragrance of nature itself, and every movement was like witnessing nature's most beautiful moments: morning dew dripping on leaf tips, white blossoms swaying under the moon, looking up in a garden of flowers, and being startled by a desperate scene deep in the forest.
"Leon, I'll take you out to play."
Before Li Ang could say anything, she excitedly took his hand. Li Ang felt endless flowers and leaves floating towards him, and the next moment, he came to a branch of a giant tree in the center of the island.
The reason why she knew where this was was because Diana had seen a similar scene before when she teleported everyone.
Zoe reached out and touched the branches, making them bear fruit like Diana did. She picked one and stuffed it into Leon's hand. Then she smiled and made the leaves dance, wrapping them up and teleporting them to a new place. This time they returned to a forest similar to the one they had been to when they were looking for Meluna.
It seems that this form's new ability is to teleport between locations with lush vegetation.
"Can you go wherever you want?"
"Yes, this island is filled with the power of Little Diana, and I can travel to different places easily."
"What about leaving here?"
Zoe thought for a moment and said, "I'll have to ask everyone I've just met."
"Everyone?"
"These are the flowers, plants, and trees? Now I can talk to them."
Is that right? After resonating with the Star Soul, she naturally gained natural affinity.
Li Ang took a look at her panel. The text displayed alone was a long row, which couldn't be more luxurious.
Her newly acquired [Natural Teleportation] states that [she can use the power of nature to teleport between coordinated plants on an island]. Combined with her own explanation, Leon understood her current ability.
In terms of limitations, first, this teleportation cannot cross the island, and second, she needs to synchronize with the local vegetation in advance.
But once the conditions are met, this ability becomes abnormal.
As long as she is in a natural environment with lush vegetation, she is equivalent to a great wizard who has mastered advanced teleportation spells, and can also play the role of an assassin and appear and disappear mysteriously.
Just as Li Ang was thinking, Zoe smiled and pulled him, teleporting him to many places in succession.
Deep in the island, many caves are connected to each other. In the darkness underground, luminous plants flourish, forming a secret place of night.
A clearing surrounded by rocks, where various fruit trees gathered, formed an orchard. Low-level monsters like monkeys and raccoons were busy tending the fruits, but were startled and scattered by Zoe and Leon's arrival.
Deep in the forest, emerald green protects the flower fields where exotic flowers are in full bloom. Although no one knows about this place, it seems as if someone is maintaining it, with flowers of various colors blooming in large areas.
Li Ang sighed, "I never imagined there were such places on Mengze Island."
"These are the things I felt after little Diana and I resonated with each other. She actually knew everything, but she just couldn't express it."
Leon had previously planned to create water-based equipment for the girls on the island after Otto's request was completed, and to see what was hidden in the place.
As a result, on the system map, the underground cave itself was considered a hidden location on Mengze Island, and as Zoe took him to teleport, the remaining hidden locations were also completely revealed.
[Secret Cave], [Monster Orchard], and [Deep Forest Flower Field] all serve as Transcendent-level material production points. The first is rich in plant-based and shadow-adaptable materials, the second can use fruit as short-term amplification drugs, and the third produces potion materials, and even some flower roots can be used directly as medicine.
"Look, it's so beautiful here."
Zoe ran into the flower field. As soon as Leon caught up with her, he spread his cicada wings and lifted her up to lie on her back in the air, then slowly fell towards the flower field.
She slept with her arms and legs spread out in the flower field, but the colorful flowers could not hide her bright white skin. Li Ang sat down beside her, but did not dare to stare at her, for fear of forcing him to finish what he had not finished yesterday.
"I used to do this a lot when I was on Satus Island," Zoe said, stretching out her whole body.
Li Ang laughed and said, "The environment there was much worse than it is now."
Although the vast green meadows on Satus Island are not bad, they are still far inferior to the flower fields.
"The flowers there are small and varied. I remember my mother once said that it would be great if the vast grassland outside the village could be transformed into a sea of flowers. And here I am in such a place now, with Li Ang."
Zoe smiled sweetly, turned her head, her eyes filled with love as thick as honey, and stretched out her arms towards him: "Now, we are the only ones here, they won't be able to find anyone else."
Li Ang gently hugged her, and she immediately said, "Kiss."
Just as he was about to move closer, Zoe shuddered as if she had thought of something. "Let's not do that last night..."
She was so embarrassed that she hid her face on his shoulder: "It feels so weird there, and, I'm, I'm almost there, I, I don't understand..."
Li Ang was filled with evil thoughts and whispered, "That's normal, not surprising at all."
"Really? I have no idea. Don't lie to me." The girl widened her eyes.
In her fairy form, her hair color is rose red, and she looks even more innocent like a doll.
"If Li Ang doesn't mind the dirtiness, I won't tolerate it next time, but for now, just a kiss."
"Ah."
Leon held Zoe's waist, and her cheeks flushed. Before, she would have just been carefree and not cared, but now her whole body was tense.
The devil's hands caressed the delicate skin, as if confirming that the pure girl could not escape his clutches.
Subconsciously wanting to escape, but unwilling to do so, she began to understand shyness, and also began to understand the feeling of slight fear and intense curiosity in her wild thoughts.
By the time the two returned, some time had passed.
"Brother, we found something!"
When they appeared, it was Alulu jogging over from the lake.
"I, I'm going to change into my swimsuit!" Zoe escaped from Leon's arms, completely contrary to her usual behavior of ignoring outsiders. She teleported on the spot and turned into a shower of scattered flowers and leaves and disappeared.
Alulu was thoughtful when she saw Zoe's new form and her escape, but she didn't say anything. Her focus at the moment was on the underwater things in the treetop lake.
"I found something like this."
Alulu handed over a stone with runes engraved on it. Due to being soaked in water for who knows how many years, the traces on it had been worn away a lot, and the runes were even covered with moss. If you didn't look carefully, you might just ignore it as a stone.
There are actually rune stones of magical civilization here?
"This is one of those small rune stones, and the energy will be lost." Li Ang said.
The girls from the Star Flower Brigade also attended the Knights' Decision Meeting. They were also aware of the Rune Stone. Alulu immediately nodded and said, "Yes, so we're still looking for a large Rune Stone. An is continuing his dive."
Seeing Leon coming back, Farina also walked over holding Yueyin Rabbit.
Leon held the rune stone and glanced at Aqua at the right moment. The latter had been keeping it a secret before, but now said, "It's normal to have these things here. Given Diana's relationship with them, it's not surprising that she brought them to this island."
"So, is this magical civilization really the creator of Star Soul?" Li Ang directly asked the question that he had been collecting from various sources.
As the pillar of the world, the Water Dragon should be fully aware of this.
"Yes." Aqua answered directly.
"How did this civilization, which possessed the Star Soul, get destroyed?" Leon asked.
"It's complicated to explain. The Six Dragons didn't participate much during that period. We only know that although the Star Soul took part in the protracted war, it wasn't as simple as a creation rebelling against its creator." Aqua looked at Diana, who tilted her head, looking naive.
The mind of Chuangshu Xinghun itself was frozen at a certain level, and she couldn't explain anything clearly.
"so."
Getting a positive answer can be considered a gain.
Farina listened to the conversation between Leon and Shuilong, came over with interest, picked up the rune stone, and Leon told her in detail some of the things Sisyphus had told her at that time.
"So this stone has this function. It's really a treasure that is right on the roadside, but no one knows about it." said Farina.
"Come to think of it, doesn't the Dragon God know about these secrets?" Leon cast his gaze at Aqua beside him. Doesn't it know a lot about the magical civilization?
"The ancient civilization knows a thing or two about runes and magic. Do I need to tell the agent every detail of the problem? Besides, she is not my agent! If you have the authority, go to the Genesis Library and take a look yourself." The rabbit said unhappily.
"The Dragon Gods are not concerned with this aspect. What they have told the agents is from a completely different perspective."
Farina said with a hint of meaning: "The Dragon Cult is also a very troublesome matter."
"The Deus are a thing of the past, but the Dragon Cult is still a threat to the world," Aqua said.
Leon didn't understand this matter, so he didn't comment. He looked at Farina:
"Speaking of which, what are you going to say to Barbanus? Will he cause trouble?"
Farina smiled but said nothing.
Li Ang rubbed his temples: "I understand."
That Ox man is obviously the type who can't talk properly. There is no such thing as a "parting amicably" scene when you are with him. If you really want to quit the group, you will either be forced to stay by force or it will be difficult to communicate with him.
Based on Leon's understanding of Farina, she just delivered a message and left it alone.
Leon walked towards the water's edge and saw Dorothy holding the lifebuoy on the water, while Andasu had dived again.
Alulu followed and said, "I, I can't dive down, so I came to deliver something."
As she spoke, she clasped her hands together, lifted the heavy object, and even bounced it a little.
This girl has chosen a swimsuit with very little fabric. It looks like a beautiful landscape of snow at this moment. Why does this action feel like she did it intentionally or unintentionally?
However, at this time, Leon just thought that his heart was unclean. He had just taken Zoe to see new things. Although they had not completely entered the new world, he was actually a little afraid to do something with other people soon. Although he already knew the fact that he was not a human being, he still had an inexplicable guilty conscience.
Alulu quietly took a step forward, her lips moving as if she wanted to say something.
Li Ang felt that if he continued to be alone with her, she would do something drastic, so he immediately said, "I'm going to go in the water and see what's going on."
He went back to the house and changed into a swimsuit. In fact, he could use the Material Glyph to create an air mass so that he could dive without hindrance, but that would ruin the atmosphere too much. Now it was an adventure during his leisure time.
They took an inflatable boat and paddled to the center of the treetop lake. Alulu was also floating on the surface, staring down with Dorothy. He gave each of them a waist bag. While not waterproof, they were still used for underwater adventures. Magic waterproof bags were hard to come by, so he had specifically searched for them in the Holy City this time.
"How is it?" Leon asked.
"I haven't found anything useful yet," said Dorothy, pulling at the vines.
The vines are connected to Andasu to prevent accidents.
"I'll do it, I'll do it!" Zoe shouted from a distance, and jumped directly into the clear lake water in her blue and white swimsuit, stirring up huge waves and swimming towards everyone.
"Wow!" Zoe approached without any sign of stopping, splashing water all over Dorothy's face.
"what are you doing!"
Dorothy was so angry that she slapped Zoe in the water with a flower vine, and the two of them started to fight in the water.
On the side, Andasu broke out of the water. When she saw Leon coming, she tried her best to appear graceful, but because her ears and tail were wet and stuck to her body, she suddenly looked a little clumsy.
Her disappointment was not noticed by the three men, especially Zoe, otherwise there would have been another fight.
Li Ang helped her tidy up the hair on her forehead, and Bai Lang immediately showed a shy smile.
"Did you find anything?" His question interrupted the two people playing in the water.
Andasu shook her head: "There is something too deep, but I can't get down there anymore. It's a bit narrow, and I'm afraid I won't be able to get out if I go in."
"This is the right choice," said Li Ang.
