Versatile Mage: Lord of Space

After several days of hard trekking, my feet finally stepped out of the seemingly endless muddy swamp. After getting rid of the annoying toads that made noisy noises from time to time, my tense nerves relaxed instantly, and I felt as if I had unloaded a heavy burden, and I felt extremely relaxed and happy.

Everyone greedily breathed in the fresh air. The air no longer had the disgusting stench of rotten leaves or the pungent smell of poisonous gas. Instead, it was filled with the rich fragrance of warm sunshine and fresh green grass, which was refreshing.

Lin Lan held the map tightly in his hand, his eyes focused and determined, and he said slowly: "We must go all the way along this coastline to find Yandang Mountain. It is said that Liupo Mountain is near Yandang Mountain."

The markings on the map were clear and concise, and Yandang Mountain was indeed located not far from the coastline. At this moment, they were about seven kilometers away from Yandang Mountain.

……

When the group walked to the beach and looked up, the clear blue sky and the rippling sea water set off each other, forming a beautiful picture.

On the continuous coast, beside the rugged reefs, white waves jumped and splashed happily. It was not the surging and majestic waves hitting the shore, but rather like a pair of gentle and delicate hands, gently teasing and teasing the rocks on the shore, full of agility and playfulness.

Next to the moss-covered rocky reef is a small beach. Several simple and quaint fishermen's wooden boats, full of traces of time, are quietly moored on the beach, as if telling stories of the past.

Don't underestimate these seemingly ordinary wooden boats. They are undoubtedly the vital survival of this quiet and peaceful fishing village. The livelihood of several families depends on the harvest from their fishing. The waves here are sometimes very naughty and always surge restlessly. The villagers have to tie the ropes of the boats carefully again and again, for fear that the boats will be swept away by the waves if they are careless.

"Something's wrong. Isn't this the place where sirens are rampant and monsters are everywhere according to the legend? How come there is a small fishing village? And this fishing boat looks like it has just been used." Lei Hao frowned and said with a puzzled look on his face.

Indeed, sea monsters have been wreaking havoc near the East China Sea in recent years. Logically, there shouldn't be any human habitation there. It is really puzzling that such a situation has occurred now.

"Unless they are powerful wizards, or are protected by something mysterious..." Lei Hao muttered to himself.

"Indeed, logically speaking, no one should live in this place, unless they are the legendary totem tribe." Lei Hanhai nodded slightly and said solemnly.

"Let's go in and take a look. Maybe we can find some clues related to the purpose of our trip." Lin Lan said without hesitation with a firm look in his eyes.

The small fishing village was not far away. After walking through the grass fence, a quiet fishing village came into view. A dozen low-rise old houses made of wood and stone were arranged in an orderly manner. Due to the erosion of sea breeze over the years, these houses looked a bit damp, but also had a bit of quaint charm.

The five of us walked into the village and saw a few children squatting by the door, their pants covered in mud and stained with dirt. Most of these children had never seen so many young and beautiful older brothers and sisters. They stared at everyone with blinking eyes, and when everyone approached, they ran back to the house like frightened little rabbits, and then peeked in at the window, full of curiosity.

Just as the child ran back, an old man wearing wooden clogs, a straw hat, with dark skin and wrinkles rushed out aggressively.

Before everyone could react, the old man said nothing, muttered something, waved his hands quickly, and began to perform magic!
"Thunderbolt-Yaksha!"

As the old man shouted, a dark cloud suddenly condensed in the sky, and lightning flashed wildly in the cloud. The old man pointed his hand diagonally at the night sky. In the dark air, thunderclouds were condensing at a very fast speed, and a strong and oppressive atmosphere spread.

Lightning flashed, and a thick purple thunderbolt suddenly tore through the night sky. The body full of destructive power went straight down, and even the surrounding air seemed to be scorched by electricity. Thunderbolt Yaksha!

However, the purple lightning suddenly split when it was halfway down. The originally thick lightning instantly split apart, extending into more lightning branches! !
Forked Thunderbolt!

This forked thunderbolt split into five chains, and its power remained undiminished as it blasted down with great momentum. These five chains happened to attack the five people respectively.

"This old guy is really hot-tempered. He uses thunder magic when he disagrees with something." Lei Hao raised the corners of his mouth slightly, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, and he said lightly.

Afterwards, Lei Hao didn't move at all, but just focused his eyes slightly. In an instant, the fierce thunderbolt was completely absorbed without leaving a trace, as if the horrific scene just now had never happened.

The old man was not panicked when he saw the thunderbolt was absorbed, and his eyes were still bright.

Then, several young men rushed out of the house. They all looked alert and held simple magic props in their hands, as if ready to fight at any time.

The young man in the lead was tall and straight, with a resolute face and a fierce look in his eyes. He shouted loudly: "Who are you and why did you trespass into our village!"

Lin Lan took a step forward, spread his hands, indicated that he had no ill intentions, and said, "We are just travelers passing through here, and we have no intention of offending you. This place is infested with sirens and demons, why do you still live here? Don't you think it's dangerous?"

After hearing Lin Lan's words, the young man's alertness did not fade. He just frowned slightly and said, "This is our hometown. Where else can we go? Besides, we have our own ways to resist those sea monsters and demons."

At this time, the old man at the side put away the magic he had just cast, but still stared at everyone with sharp eyes, and said: "You don't look like ordinary travelers, but like you are here to explore something."

Lei Hao smiled and said nonchalantly: "You are right. We are indeed looking for clues about Liupo Mountain. We passed by here and saw that the scene here is different from what was rumored, so we naturally want to find out."

Hearing the words "Liupo Mountain", the faces of the old man and the young men changed slightly. They looked at each other, and the young man in the lead said, "Liupo Mountain is not a good place. You'd better not go there."

These people obviously know something, it would be strange if they didn't continue to question them.

"Why?" Lin Lan asked.

"Four words: all bewitched."
