Chapter 125: Nightmare Creature: Count Thanasis

"Sister, I still don't quite understand what Mentor Lucian told me before about the witchcraft runes..." Next to the training ground, Edison licked the test tube bottle while whispering to Carly about the confusion he encountered.

Carly smiled, she enjoyed acting like a senior sister to Edison, even though she was probably younger than Edison if we really counted their ages.

However, under the aura of several [Large Stamina Potion], this age difference is like the remaining snow in early spring and is not worth mentioning at all.

Like now, when Edison calls Carly, who is almost a head shorter than him, "senior sister", it comes very naturally.

"It's okay. I'll explain it to you again." Hearing Edison's pleasant voice of "senior sister", Carly felt a little flattered. She straightened her chest and cleared her throat, and it can be said that she was acting like a senior sister.

In order to show her "dignity as a senior sister" in front of Edison, Carly even took out the exercise books she had studied before to review them these past few nights, so that she could "show off" in front of Edison - just like what Mentor Lucian showed her at the beginning.

Show your brilliance in the ordinary and your style in the invisible.

It can be said that although Carly did not master all the knowledge points that Lucian taught her, she was very graceful in front of Edison. With the sufficient supply of potions, she established an image of a tall and majestic senior sister in Edison's mind.

"Senior Sister, the main thing is this part, about Morgan Rune No. 3 and its transformation..." Edison took out the booklet he used for taking notes and began to ask questions quickly.

Carly looked at Edison's booklet, which looked a bit like scribbles, and patiently explained, "The meaning of Morgan Rune No. 3 is similar to {growth} or {inheritance}. Of course, it can also be used in general. For example, in the No. practice model, its role is more inclined to {transition}..."

Edison listened to Carly's explanation, but his eyes gradually became vague... He seemed to think of the fishing village in his memory fragments, and the magnificent sea of ​​clouds he had seen in the ruins of the Cloud Country. He even thought of a kind of stuffed seahorse that he had never eaten but existed in his memory from the appearance of Morgan Rune No. 3, which was somewhat similar to a sketch of a seahorse...

However, although the memories he thought of were varied, none of them were seriously related to learning or Morgan Rune No. 3.

At this time, Carly obviously noticed this, and her expression suddenly became very "wonderful".

boo——

She simply unplugged a test tube and poured about one-third of the stamina potion inside the tube onto the ground.

I have to say, Carly's move was extremely effective on Edison.

After smelling the special light fruity scent of the physical potion, Edison's gradually wandering eyes became focused again. He sniffed gently with his nose, and his body became a little restless, just like a student who heard the bell for the last class of the morning.

But what greeted him was Carly jumping up and punching him on the head.

"Be serious!" Carly seemed to feel the same as when Lucian hit her head, but unlike her own stupidity, Edison in front of her was the type who was not smart.

Sometimes, she really wanted to punch the guy in front of her to wake him up.

"If you don't listen carefully, you'll have to find a way to get the potion for lunch today!" Carly looked at Edison, who was humbly admitting his mistake but had no intention of repenting from his expression. She let out a breath and said the cruelest words to Edison in the kindest tone.

Edison shuddered all over. It was obvious that Carly's words hit his soft spot.

Outstanding effect.

"Very good, I'll tell you one last time..." Carly looked at Edison, who was trying hard to open his eyes wide and was full of desire to survive, and she nodded with satisfaction.

……

On the other side, Lucian was sitting at the laboratory table, and his work had come to an end.

"Although we are only trying out the existing magic circle, the prototype of the capture trap has been built." Lucian looked at the "fish hook" he built for Adeline, with a look of satisfaction in his eyes.

This is a seemingly blank scroll, but it has been framed with special runes around it, making it look like a blank frame.

However, this is actually a special magic tool that is specifically used to bind two-dimensional life forms such as spirits or nightmare creatures. It has a very strong binding effect on these special life forms, and can imprison them in this small two-dimensional cage. "Give it a try..." Lucian picked up this special picture frame, then he closed the barrier magic array in the laboratory, and at the same time used his mental power to control this picture frame magic tool, releasing it into the dream layer.

It's like a child holding a scoop net and gently scooping it in the pond.

Soon, Lucian's mental strength felt the weight of the scroll begin to sink rapidly, and he could even sense a feeling similar to that of a foreign object struggling from inside the frame.

“I caught it.” Lucian’s eyes lit up, realizing that he must have captured some kind of creature wandering in the middle of dreams, and it looked like a big one.

He quickly manipulated his mental power to pull the picture frame out from the inner layer of the dream, and at the same time reopened the temporarily closed witch formation.

After completing these preparations, Lucian focused his attention on the current picture frame.

Different from the clean picture just now, the canvas inside the frame is already filled with a dynamic beauty.

Strange-looking bugs or reptiles are roaming around in the space of the picture.

Some of them have bodies similar to beetles or centipedes, but they can fly gracefully in the air with multiple rows of "ventral wings" under their armor; some have an appearance similar to that of a butterfly, but their bodies are made up of three cherries and their wings are two marshmallows...

These strange-looking creatures don’t seem to realize they’ve been captured, but continue to wander around the canvas, freely displaying their grotesque elegance.

"These should be the legendary dream bugs, right? Born in broken dreams, they have no consciousness of their own and their thoughts are chaotic. They are the weakest nightmare creatures. Their ecological niche is similar to that of plants in the real world. However, they are the most basic creatures in the dream layer and also serve as the bottom of the food chain."

Lucian looked at these special insects carefully, then gently touched the scroll with his fingers, as if to say hello to these cute little guys through a barrier.

But perhaps these little guys didn’t have their own consciousness, so even if Lucian’s fingers pressed against the canvas, causing a slight sense of sluggishness in the space they were in, they only chose to bypass the range of Lucian’s fingers and continue swimming in other areas of the canvas.

"Hey, you damn guy, can't you see I'm talking to you?" Just as Lucian was still interacting with these tiny strange creatures, a somewhat impatient voice sounded from the canvas.

“Huh?” Lucian was stunned. He looked at the canvas carefully, but he still couldn’t see the owner of the voice.

In fact, Lucian was also a little puzzled. After all, judging from the violent struggle that the canvas had just felt in the dream layer, he must have "caught" some special nightmare creature. However, these dream bugs of various shapes in front of him were definitely not the creatures that could cause such a big struggle.

But because only the dream bugs were moving inside the scroll, Lucian temporarily put aside his doubts.

But now he heard the voice of an unknown existence, which made Lucian a little surprised. After all, the ability to speak and communicate actually meant that the owner of this voice possessed a certain degree of intelligence.

“Who are you? Where are you?” Lucian lowered his body slightly and carefully searched the canvas for the area where the owner of the voice might be.

"Asshole...you...you damn two-legged hairy monster...quickly move this stick away from me! You're going to crush me to death!" The voice seemed a little intermittent at this time, but the tone was as condescending as ever, or even arrogant.

Xi'an was slightly stunned. He lowered his head to look for the so-called stick, but in the end he only found the index finger that had just touched the scroll.

He raised his hand slightly, and his index finger left the canvas.

After careful observation, I found that there was actually a very small "dot" where my index finger had just poked. After looking carefully, I found that this small dot was actually an... eyeball?
Or maybe it's not quite right to call it an eyeball. After all, there are many tentacles like fluff around it, and the outer layer is wrapped with something similar to a cell membrane. The eyeball is inside the cell membrane, which is somewhat similar to a large cell nucleus...

"Hey, two-legged hairy monster, please show me some respect when you look at me. You should know that I, the great Count Thanasis, will rule the entire Nightmare World in the future!"

His eyes moved slightly, but his tone was extremely arrogant. "Reptile from the low-dimensional world, being able to submit to the great Count Sanasis is the greatest luck in your life. Hehehe..."

Lucian had a blank expression on his face, then silently extended a finger.

He pressed down lightly with his fingers. It was so easy for him that it couldn't be easier. However, in the eyes of Count Sanasis, it was like a pillar that was rapidly falling towards him...
