Chapter 259 I am a Liyue Mage
Chapter 259 I am a Liyue Mage
Although Shiroki, a monster from the Musou series, was easily defeated, an unexpected incident still occurred at his last stop in Inazuma, at the Water of Musou.
"Halt! Who are you? What are you doing here?"
Shiraki's sudden appearance startled the soldiers guarding the cave.
They shouted in unison and surrounded him, weapons in hand.
Looking at the soldiers surrounding him, Shiraki felt somewhat helpless.
He couldn't very well tell these people directly, "I'm here to kill the Water of No Form. You don't need to pay attention to me. I'll leave after I'm done."
Shiraki felt that if he actually said that, the soldiers would definitely think he was an idiot.
After thinking it over, Shiraki felt that he could take this opportunity to make contact with Coral Palace.
Since we'll have to deal with them eventually anyway, it's good to get acquainted with the managers here now.
Thinking of this, Shiraki organized his thoughts and said:
"I am a sorcerer and an adventurer from Liyue."
"I'm not quite sure why we suddenly ended up here. Maybe something went wrong with the magic. Is this Inazuma?"
Shiraki wore an innocent expression and asked the soldiers surrounding him with a naive look.
The soldiers were quite relaxed by the innocent-looking boy in front of them.
A leading soldier stepped forward and explained to Shiraki:
"This is Inazuma, that's true, but this is Umijima Island. I guess this isn't the place you want to come to."
"I will report your situation to my superiors, and if things go smoothly, someone will take you away from here the next morning."
Since Bai Mu has not shown any aggression since his appearance, and he exudes a gentle aura, the soldiers did not want to make things too difficult for him.
But when Shiraki heard the words "Sea Island," his eyes suddenly lit up.
The light, in a physical sense, was caused by the white wood controlling its divine power, which made its eyes glow.
"Is this Haizhi Island? That's great."
"I've heard this is the rebels' headquarters. May I ask if I may meet the great Lord Coral Palace?"
Bai Mu's sudden reaction startled the soldiers surrounding him.
A question arose in their minds at the same time: when did their Coral Palace Master become so famous that even Liyue had such enthusiastic fans?
The momentary daze was fleeting; these soldiers, after all, were professionally trained and reacted quickly.
They did not grant Shiraki's request.
While they held a slight liking for this person who suddenly appeared and claimed to be a Liyue sorcerer, it didn't mean that Bai Mu could directly meet their highest leader.
"Sir, I'm sorry, I can't grant your request."
"Our Lord Coral Palace is extremely busy, and even the locals of our Sea Island cannot meet him easily."
"It is already late at night. If you can wait, I will convey your wish to visit Lord Coral Palace the next day. Would you agree?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Mu nodded; he naturally agreed.
"Then, what about your accommodation tonight...?"
The leading soldier glanced around. Since Bai Mu had appeared suddenly and it was late at night, they had no way of helping Bai Mu find accommodation.
"You don't need to worry about that, I have a way."
Bai Mu waved his hand.
"By the way, I'd like to go into this cave to find some materials. I wonder if I should inform Lord Coral Palace about this?"
Upon hearing that Bai Mu wanted the materials in the cave, the leading soldier immediately led Bai Mu into the cave.
During their conversation, Bai Mu learned that the materials in the cave were open to the public, and the reason why these soldiers were guarding the cave was entirely because of the Formless Water inside.
Whenever someone comes here to look for materials, one or more soldiers will accompany them, in order to prevent any daring person from accidentally provoking the Formless Water.
"Sir, I wonder what kind of material you are looking for? Having been stationed here for so long, I do know the location of some materials."
Hearing the soldier's words, Bai Mu glanced at the Formless Water not far away and said:
"May I take some of its materials?"
The soldier's expression suddenly froze as he looked in the direction Shiramu was pointing.
But he quickly realized what was happening and replied:
"Of course, but I must remind you, sir, that this is a formless..."
Before the soldier could finish speaking, after receiving an affirmative reply, Shiraki immediately took action.
Several bursts of primordial divine power were unleashed, and several unhealable damages instantly appeared on the surface of the Formless Water.
Like the Ice Hypostasis, it directly revealed its core.
Bai Mu didn't hesitate either, and in no time at all, he turned it into a flower of the earth's veins.
Behind him, the soldier froze for the third time after witnessing Bai Mu's fierce performance.
This time, he was stunned for much longer than the previous two times. He just couldn't understand why this "simple" boy in front of him had such strong strength.
Are all the sorcerers in Liyue this powerful?
I wonder if it's too late for me to go to Liyue to learn magic.
Just as the soldier was lost in his daydreams, Shiraki, who had finished the work, went over and patted him on the shoulder, snapping the soldier out of his daze.
"I'm leaving now. Don't forget, I'll come to see Lord Coral Palace tomorrow."
After saying that, Bai Mu suddenly disappeared from the spot, just like when he came.
After Shiraki left, the soldier stood there for a long time before he came to his senses.
He hurriedly ran out of the cave, exchanged a few words with his men, and headed straight for the place in Coral Palace where Xin Hai handled official business.
Although it is already late at night, Lord Coral Palace is probably still dealing with matters.
Sure enough, when the soldier arrived at a study, a light was still shining inside, and a general was chained up and guarding outside.
Seeing the soldiers rushing towards him, Goro stepped forward and asked:
"Why are they in such a panic? Could it be that their army has attacked?"
The soldier stopped running, took a deep breath, and said:
"Lord Goro, I need to see Lord Coral Palace. I have important matters to report."
Upon hearing that it was an important matter, Goro immediately became serious.
However, Lord Sango is currently dealing with state affairs, and even if the soldiers say that there is something important to do, Goro will only consider whether to interrupt Lord Sango after he understands how important the matter is.
"Lady Coral Palace is still dealing with matters and should not be disturbed."
"Tell me what happened first, and I will pass it on to Lord Coral Palace."
The soldier then recounted everything he had just seen and heard to Goro.
After listening to the soldier's account, Goro suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
Fortunately, the Liyue sorcerer meant no harm; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
