Chapter 77 Why is it so weird?
Laura felt warm all over and very comfortable within the magic circle .
The pain in my aching arm gradually subsided, my feverish head began to cool down, and even my tired spirit gradually became refreshed.
With a look of amazement, Laura moved her fully recovered arm, feeling her body full of strength, and looked at Xia Yu in surprise.
"Xia Yu, was what you just used magic? Are you a magician hiding in the modern world?"
Hearing this question, Xia Yu scratched his head and said with an unnatural look on his face.
"Um... I said I was an ordinary person before and I just learned magic. Do you believe me?"
"I believe it!"
Laura nodded seriously, looked at him and said, "You are willing to jump into the sea to save me without fear of life and death. I know that I have chosen the right person. You are the person I will entrust my life to. If I don't even trust you, who else can I trust?"
Hearing this, Xia Yu was somewhat moved and hugged Laura, and Laura also leaned into the arms of her sweetheart. After the two of them snuggled together for a while, Xia Yu began to explain.
"Actually, I learned magic after I woke up. Before I set foot on this island, I was an ordinary person. At most, I just had a certain interest in the mysticism."
Hearing this, Laura also recalled how she met Xia Yu. They knew each other because of mysticism.
After that, the two of them often met in the library, and then became more and more familiar with each other, and eventually developed into a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship.
"Because there are supernatural beings on this island, the moment I set foot on the island, I was stimulated and awakened the inheritance of magic."
"It was just that the situation was so urgent and we needed a shelter, so I subconsciously ignored it. After I fell asleep from exhaustion, the inheritance of magic began to awaken, and then I accepted the inheritance and memory of magic in my dream."
"If I hadn't been inspired by this island, I'm afraid I would never have awakened this inheritance. Now that I think about it, I have to thank this expedition."
Xia Yu slowly recounted the adventures that had happened to him. Although there were some discrepancies, the general situation was indeed like this.
He didn't make it up completely. He did receive the magical memory and magic power. Besides, his own inheritance is also an inheritance.
"The supernatural on this island? So this island could be the legendary Yamatai? Then the legend of Queen Himiko is also true?"
After listening to Xia Yu's story, Laura suddenly thought of the abnormal storm in the Dragon Triangle. Could the storm that tore the ship apart be the result of the legendary witchcraft of Himiko?
"Legend has it that Himiko is proficient in ghost arts and sorcery, and is considered a psychic like a 'mourne' with the ability to control the weather. Therefore, she is also honored as the 'Queen of the Sun'. So are these legends true ?" Laura asked in surprise.
"Yes, the legend of Himiko is indeed true, although it is suspected of being exaggerated. After I accepted the magic inheritance, I could already feel the other party's evil spirit. She prevented people who landed on the island from leaving. This island is indeed the mysterious Yamatai." Xia Yu affirmed.
"There really are supernatural powers in the world, and my father's research is also..."
Thinking of this, Laura couldn't help sobbing softly, and she thought of her deceased father.
When she was young, her mother died in a plane crash, and her father Richard began an obsessive research in order to resurrect his beloved wife, hoping to find the secret of immortality.
But he failed. Moreover, as an archaeologist, he also promoted the existence of "supernatural" power in the world, which was contrary to the world's ideas. Such unorthodox behavior caused her father to suffer tremendous public pressure and eventually chose to commit suicide .
So Laura has been an orphan since childhood and grew up under the care of Ross. Ross, who was a Marine Corps and was agile, has always played the role of a father during her growth.
Originally, Laura had doubted her father and was even angry at why he would rather commit suicide than leave her alone.
But at this moment, she suddenly realized that her father's research had always been correct and that there really was supernatural power in the world. Laura couldn't help but feel sad.
"Xia Yu, why do you think my father committed suicide? If I had been willing to believe him and support him at the time, would the outcome have been different?" Laura leaned on Xia Yu's chest, her voice sad.
Xia Yu stroked Laura's brown hair and comforted her softly: "Uncle will definitely not blame you. What we living people can do is to live with the share of the deceased."
"Since my uncle died because of his research on the supernatural, even though it was suicide, the truth must be more complicated. When we get back, we will look for clues carefully and perhaps we can find out the truth about my uncle's death and clear his name."
"Well, thank you, Xia Yu."
The surroundings became quiet again. Laura was immersed in memories of the past, while Xia Yu opened the chat group.
[Tomb Raider]: Thank you. The injured has been healed. If you are not in a hurry, can you let me use it again? I really need treatment.
[Dark Souls III]: Sure. I have an element bottle anyway, and I don’t need the healing miracle normally. But your world is actually Tomb Raider. Which one is it from?
[Tomb Raider]: This is Tomb Raider 9, the best one with Lara.
[Clash of Clans]: Sure, go chase Laura right away. At this stage, Laura is still a naive and simple girl with a wilderness feeling!
[Tomb Raider]: You are talking about this. Laura is already my girlfriend. The injured person I just rescued was Laura. We just climbed up to Yamatai.
【Dark Souls III】: ???
[Dark Souls III]: Good boy, I am worthy of being you. I have actually chased Laura. But you are so brave. You should know that no man who likes Laura has a good ending.
[Dark Souls III]: I seem to remember that in Tomb Raider 9, there was a computer genius named “what’s that” who also had a crush on Lara Croft, but he ended up dying together with the enemy.
[Tomb Raider]: His name is Alex Weiss, he is the first electronics technician on the Endurance, proficient in almost all electronic products, and is a genius with a bright future.
[Tomb Raider]: I originally wanted to save him, and now with this chat group, I can save those who might be sacrificed.
[Dark Souls III]: By the way, there is a novice gift pack in the group red envelope. Go and claim it yourself. After claiming it, you should be able to walk sideways on the Yamatai.
[Tomb Raider]: Thank you, thank you.
[Soul Knight] released the [Necromancer] red envelope.
[Soul Knight]: This is the new necromancy spell I learned. I'll lend it to you first. I remember there was a group of undead storm warriors in Tomb Raider 9, and Himiko was also an evil spirit.
[Soul Knight]: Although Himiko was burned to death by a torch at the end of the game, that is impossible no matter how you think about it. After all, she was an evil spirit that had lived for more than a thousand years. How could she be burned to death by an ordinary torch so easily?
[Soul Knight]: I think the more likely possibility is that Himiko has taken over Samantha's body and is lurking down. When the time comes, remember to capture Himiko's soul and search it. Her magic that can borrow the power of heaven and earth is quite valuable.
[Dark Souls III]: I have a better idea. You can directly soul enslave Himiko. She is not only a thousand-year-old evil spirit, but also a rare beauty queen.
Seeing this, Gu Mu Xia Yu's eyebrows jumped. Soul enslavement, why does it feel weird?
