Cornflower Witch

Chapter 312 The Witch School: The Eyes of the Sunflower

Under the dim sky, Hilti moved through the air, constantly wielding her broadsword to shatter the giant black mosquitoes that attacked. Although these mosquitoes were only 'Tier 1', their sheer number was enough to be incredibly annoying.

"This won't do," Hilti thought to herself as she wandered around. Unfortunately, she didn't have any secret techniques or abilities for large-area attacks.

Generally speaking, one only comes into contact with such large-area secret techniques at the fourth rank. Only the 'Castle' attribute reaches the fourth rank, and the 'Sword of Amorish' that it masters can attack over a wide area, but this is a killing move against the Twilight Beast, not a skill for exterminating insects.

Using it is like using a cannon to kill a mosquito—no, that's exactly what it means to use a cannon to kill a mosquito.

Hilti spun several times in the air, turned around again as she ascended, then gripped the hilt of her sword and pulled back slightly, aiming at the huge, fleshy lizard carcass below, and a dazzling sword light shot down.

A torrent of snow-white light pierced through the black cloud of mosquitoes, struck the monster's back, and created a bloody hole about twenty meters wide before the light dissipated.

Such a wound would be enough to kill many fourth-tier monsters, but it would certainly not be a threat to a monster that is about a kilometer long.

Exhausted, Hiltiya looked down at the slowly healing wound and shook her head slightly.

No, Siltiia, this kind of reckless approach won't work, she thought to herself.

In terms of strength, she was at a complete disadvantage and could not compare with her opponent at all. Even if she used her strongest skills, it would only be like tickling her. This was not the way to defeat the enemy.

Why not just run away and go to 'Firestone Fortress' for reinforcements? Hilti thought for a moment. As she tried to fly away from this area, a strange dragging force made her slower and slower, and she even felt as if she was being bound by invisible threads.

What is this? An obstacle to the ritual.

Hilti stopped flying, turned around to look at the fleshy lizard that was chasing after her, and shook her head helplessly.

It seems we can't move forward without solving this problem.

Aiming at Hiltiah in the air, the fleshy lizard below raised its head again, letting out a series of roars, and then black mosquitoes flew out.

This time, however, Hiltiya understood some of the meaning conveyed in that strange roar.

Devour... seize the body... purify the body... survive
Did the other party value her body? Hiltiya roughly understood the reason. She observed the monster below again and slowly discovered the problem.

This flesh and blood monster, although its nature is close to 'sixth rank', is like a building block about to fall apart. Everything is teetering on the brink of collapse. The 'Blood Law·Moth' power contained within it is gradually unable to be unified, and it begins to conflict, even weaken and separate from each other. If it were to encounter the griffin that Hilti had seen before, it would probably be killed by that griffin in a single encounter.

It's likely that 'Parenmarkov' once possessed this monster to escape the pursuit of a powerful enemy, but this body has no possibility of advancement and cannot revive the once powerful 'Named One,' and is now in danger of disintegration, so it is urgently seeking a new body.

In comparison, Siltia's body is undoubtedly the best choice. Her aura is pure and untainted, with enormous potential for advancement. No wonder the other party is so relentlessly pursuing her.

Unable to break free and unable to kill her opponent, Hilti felt troubled and distressed by this situation.

Is there any way to defeat the enemy?

She pondered, then switched her gender again, becoming 'Emerald Honey', and scattered many seeds onto the flesh-and-blood lizard. These seeds sprouted, began to absorb the blood from the flesh-and-blood lizard, and continued to spread.

Just as Siltia was beginning to feel a glimmer of hope, what happened next almost made the girl vomit.

Countless maggots emerged from the flesh and blood, devouring the growing vines and weeds, rapidly consuming the spreading plants until they were no longer visible.

Compared to the actual harm, the psychological impact of this scene left Hiltiya pale and unable to recover.

She originally thought she didn't have anything to fear, but now she had a list in her mind and a strong desire to win arose, hoping to defeat the monster in front of her as soon as possible and eliminate it.

This desire to win surpasses the anxiety of taking the college entrance exam in my previous life, the anticipation of job interviews, and the longing before holidays.

Given the current state of affairs, let its life end quickly and turn to dust. Such a tragic scene was too much for Hilti to bear.

This time, she can only pray for outside help.

The girl clasped her hands together, her long silver hair and dress fluttering in the air. A pale white halo of light unfolded, forming a spherical curtain that protected her and kept out the mosquitoes.

Inside, a seven-colored picture book gradually emerged and floated in front of Hilti.

The pages inside kept turning, and then wisps of mysterious 'color' flew out and spun in the air.

'Emerald green in the morning dew' 'Pure white in the moonlight'

'Pure Silver'

'Crimson Blood'

'Alien Colors'

'Cornflower Blue'

These extraordinary and beautiful colors flow and then converge into the vortex that slowly emerges in the center.

Hilti began to use the gifts left to her by the 'otherworldly apostle' Luna, exchanging these accumulated colors for something that could solve her predicament.

"Seven-Colored Picture Books, Start!"

"Welcome, the Third King who has been exiled to the outside world, the Morning Star of Enlightenment."

"Your prayers have been conveyed; the stars will guide your path..."

Countless dazzling pieces of information flashed and raced through Hilti's eyes as she sifted and searched through the vast ocean of information.

Ten seconds later, much of the information dimmed, and three special pieces of information, emitting a pale golden light, gradually appeared and fell into front of Hilti.

【The Witch School - The Smile of the Flame Witch】

【The Witch School: The Feast of the Black Ravens】

【The Witch School: The Gaze of the Sunflower】

All three cards can solve the current problem, but they require different colors to exchange. The [Witch School - Flame Witch's Smile] requires a lot of colors with attributes such as 'fire', 'crimson', and 'brilliant', while the [Witch School - Black Crow's Feast] requires colors with attributes such as 'gray', 'death', and 'cold'.

Of the colors she currently possesses, only 'Crimson Blood' contains the 'bright red' attribute, which meets her needs, but she doesn't have enough of it to exchange for.

Therefore, we can only choose the third option.

【Witch School - Sunflower's Vision】 requires a large number of colors with attributes such as 'flowers', 'fire', and 'sun'.

Among them, 'Morning Dew Green' and 'Cornflower Blue' contain the 'flower' attribute and meet the requirements, while 'Alien Color' is a versatile color and can also be exchanged to make up for some of the difference.

When she first obtained the picture book, she had accumulated 37 "Morning Dew Green". After that, she cultivated a rare quality cornflower and obtained a lot of "Cornflower Blue". She used all of these colors and then added "Alien Color" to make up for the missing ones. Finally, Hiltiya collected 100 colors and exchanged them for that card.

【Witch School - The Gaze of the Sunflower】(Blazing Sun, Emerald Honey, Sky Dome): A magnificent power from another world, representing the authority of 'The Witch of the Sunflower', Siphus. (Usable 1/1 time)

In the card, golden and red flames swept across the sky, transforming into countless blooming flowers, and amidst that sea of ​​fiery flowers, a pair of beautiful eyes slowly opened.

As she slowly absorbed the card into her chest, strands of strange power from another world spread out, temporarily transforming her body. Hilti felt her rank rise rapidly. This dramatic change in power allowed her to perceive countless corners and secrets she had never noticed before, as if the invisible framework of the world was revealed before her, and she could easily reverse the laws and framework of the world.

This unfamiliar sense of control is surprising.

The burning card in the consciousness chart gradually merged with Hilti's destiny, and the girl's form also changed. In the card image, she wore an incomparably white ancient Greek-style long dress and stood under the clear sky. Then, her eyes, which had been closed, trembled for the first time and slowly opened in the burning card.

A pair of incomparably beautiful eyes, like countless layers of shimmering gemstones, slowly appeared.

In reality, Hilti's eyes slowly reopened. Now, her eyes were no longer the cornflower blue of the past, but a brilliant gold and layers of fiery red. Where her eyes gazed, thousands of flames slowly sprouted and bloomed like flowers, and a blazing life force manifested in this world.

Under Hilti's gaze, the fleshy lizards below were engulfed by a swarm of fiery flowers, which continued to expand into the distance of the abyss, devouring the black, barren land and burning anything twisted in sight.

The desolate plains, the undulating, black, rugged mountains, and the dark, lightless abyss were all covered by the blooming sunflower. Countless flowers made of flames bloomed passionately, and the vibrant life filled this desolate land, beginning to permanently change the rules and environment of this region.

Is this the power of a witch from a higher-dimensional world, another world...?
