Witch Special

"Don't even think about that bracelet. It's reserved for the princess of the Garden of the Dead. Only she can bear the longing attached to it by the Source Spirit." Teacher Patchouli reminded Lin Zhenxi when she saw him staring at the first line on the reward list.

A small question mark appeared above Lin Zhenxi's head. How come another princess appeared in the courtyard of the departed world...

She found that although she learned a lot during her visit to the Garden of Death, there were more things she didn't know and wanted to know.

There's also a Kasa. Patchouli says she asked him to capture the Ash Follower she placed in the Festival World. Hayashi Maki noticed that Patchouli pronounces him with the masculine "he" instead of the feminine "she." In a garden of demise where everyone is basically yuri, this species is even rarer than the Iron-eating Beast. So who could this be?

Seeing Lin Zhenxi's curiosity, Teacher Patchouli casually said, "Princess Zimeng is the descendant of Lord Yuanling and that person. She possesses supreme bloodline and is destined to be born noble. She is also our hope to reconnect with that person. She... is different from you."

Although what Patchouli said was true, Lin Zhenxi didn't feel particularly offended. Different is different, so what? Her parents were ordinary humans, and she'd only been a witch for twelve years. She felt it was already remarkable that she'd made it this far. Why did she have to compare herself to others, especially someone like her, the Chosen One, born at the finishing line? Comparing herself to that kind of person was just plain unpleasant.

However, Lin Zhenxi also knew that although there were many rewards for this event, very few of them might be suitable for her. Most of them were either reserved for others or stuffed into the prize pool by sages and great sages who had nothing better to do to enrich the prize pool.

But honestly, among all these prizes, even those whose names she could recognize, there were many she wanted. Not to mention those she didn't recognize. It was indeed extremely difficult to find the prize that Teacher Patchouli had prepared for her from among so many prizes.

In that case, I can only beat the Moon Watching difficulty level, and then ask Teacher Patchouli what the reward is.

------------------

In this way, Lin Zhenxi bid farewell to her teacher and left the Bavaru Library, which she had not been out for half a year, and prepared to go to the Celebration World through the torii passage on the mountain near the Mist Lake.

Yes, it was the torii gate she passed through when she first arrived.

Teacher Patchouli set all the birth points at the top of the mountain. The excellent vision helps players participating in the celebration make decisions early and choose the location to set up their base.

After all, this is a celebration for the entire Courtyard of the Dead. It is impossible for all participating players to be powerful enough to defeat the Gray's followers independently. Teacher Patchouli also has to provide some convenience for those weaker participants, so that they will not be besieged by the enemy at the beginning of the game and lose unwillingly.

Although you can start over if you lose, you will have to start from scratch. This game does not support the replay function.

Pushing open the thick wooden door of the Bavaru Library, which had been destroyed countless times by Lin Zhenxi but was still as intact as new, and then climbing up the spiral staircase that suddenly had an automatic rising function, Lin Zhenxi returned to the Scarlet Devil Mansion above the library.

The perfect and elegant head maid had been waiting by the door. When Lin Maki pushed open the door and officially stepped into the Scarlet Devil Mansion, Sakuya Izayoi handed her a basket.

"Ms. Lin Zhenxi, this is the meal I prepared for you. I wish you good progress."

The head maid of the Scarlet Devil Mansion was a beautiful woman who spoke little. After giving the lunch box to Lin Zhenxi, she disappeared. Anyway, the layout of the Scarlet Devil Mansion had not changed, so there was no need for her to lead Lin Zhenxi to the door.

The head maid disappeared, and the fairy maids who were afraid of her began to appear from all kinds of strange places, such as the lampshade of the chandelier, inside the vase, and inside the potted plants. They were very small in size, so they could hide anywhere and were very concealed.

Furthermore, the Scarlet Devil Mansion had a maid who cleaned it daily, so there wasn't much dust. Even if they went into the corners, their white maid aprons didn't seem to get dirty.

These fairy maids were afraid of nothing but the head maid. Now that the head maid had left, they suddenly became bolder and began to surround Hayashi Maki, asking her all sorts of questions, wanting to know her identity. Some fairy maids were even so desperate as to try to steal the food from the lunch box that Sakuya Izayoi had given Hayashi Maki.

Lin Zhenxi grabbed the naughty maids by the scruff of their necks, pulled them out of the baskets, and then put the lunch boxes directly into the space cube.

When the fairy maids saw that the food was gone, they immediately stopped working and started pulling at Lin Zhenxi's clothes and hair, nagging her to take out the lunch box again.

Lin Zhenxi was really at her wit's end because of them. She wanted to fight them, but the fairy maids all looked like cute miniature little girls, so she couldn't bring herself to do it.

Just when Lin Zhenxi felt a headache, the head maid suddenly appeared beside her again. Her cold voice echoed in the corridor: "You haven't done any of your work. What are you dawdling about here? Mop this corridor for me."

With a scream, the group of fairy maids that were pestering Lin Zhenxi all dispersed and escaped from the corridor in a few seconds.

The head maid bowed her head and apologized to Lin Zhenxi, "I'm sorry, Miss Lin, I neglected to discipline the maids in the mansion and caused you trouble."

Lin Zhenxi waved her hands and replied with a smile: "How can you blame Sakuya for this? They are fairies. Innocence is their nature."

Indeed, he is stupid, so naive and cute. How can you blame a little fool for being ignorant? Wouldn't that put yourself on the same level as the fool?

Having said that, the head maid still accompanied Lin Maki all the way out of the mansion and through the garden, until she sent her out of the gate of the Scarlet Devil Mansion.

Then she discovered that Miss Monban was sleeping standing up with her eyes open...

As Lin Zhenxi was leaving, she saw a gleaming silver dagger lodged in Miss Menban's forehead, blood spurting out a meter high. Miss Menban wailed, but didn't dare fight back. She could only clutch her forehead and scream, "I'm dying! I'm dying! I'm bleeding out!" while rolling on the ground.

He screamed miserably, but actually nothing had happened, it just looked scary. If the head maid hadn't known that this guy couldn't die, she wouldn't have aimed for a fatal injury.

Next came the segment where the head maid scolded the slacking-off monk, and Lin Zhenxi was probably unable to defeat either side, so she stopped watching the fun to avoid offending the silly-looking green-clothed monk.

This sect is actually quite good at fighting.

So Lin Zhenxi turned around and flew away, crossing the foggy Lake, intending to go to the hills on the other side of the lake and enter the celebration world.

However, when she was flying over the lake, she was suddenly attacked. Several ice balls suddenly flew out from the thick fog at an extremely fast speed, almost brushing past Lin Zhenxi's head. If Lin Zhenxi hadn't dodged her head, she might have been hit in the head.

Lin Zhenxi quickly stopped, hovering not far above the lake, drew out his wand and entered a state of alert, wary of sneak attacks.

However, Lin Zhenxi's close approach seemed unnecessary, because the attacker had no intention of hiding at all. He jumped out of the fog, stood in front of Lin Zhenxi with his hands on his hips, and shouted loudly: "Let's play games, let's play games!"

Ah, this... is the stupid ice fairy who lives in the Mist Lake. How come I met her again?

Lin Zhenxi looked at the blue-haired girl with six ice-crystal wings on her back. She was surprised and felt a little itchy.

The monsters of the Garden of the Dead are synonymous with weakness, similar to the Maoyu. Sometimes, they can't even defeat wild beasts, and even cats can make a killing of them. Although they have the form of humans and the intelligence of children, they are like a kind of beast unique to the Garden of the Dead. However, within this group, there are also some powerful individuals.

The ice fairy before us, Cirno, is a representative of these special individuals. Unlike most fairies with active elemental attributes, Cirno possesses the ability to manipulate cold air, freezing various objects (sometimes even bullets), and can also freeze small objects instantly, making her highly dangerous.

The reason why the temperature in the Mist Lake is lower than other places and why the thick fog here does not dissipate even during the day is due to the influence of this ice fairy. The cold air she exudes even affects the local climate environment.

Of course, that was all she could do. Compared to the other sages in the Garden of the Dead, who wielded immense power, the ability to control cold air was nothing. Cirno, though belligerent, was actually a complete wretch; anyone passing through the Mist Lake could have beaten her to a pulp. If fairies didn't have the same poor memory as fish, she'd have long since shut herself off.

However, Cirno is also compared with other people in the Courtyard of Death. As for Lin Zhenxi... judging from the speed of the ice ball that Cirno just hit, she still poses a certain threat to Lin Zhenxi.

However, it was only a threat. Lin Zhenxi hadn't been idle for the past six months; she had grown a lot. Now, finally, she had found a newbie willing to play a spell card game with her, and she couldn't be happier.

"Okay, what do you want to play, a bullet hell game?"

"Great, great, a bullet-hell game. Cirno loves bullet-hell games the most!" The ice-blue-haired girl in front of her cheered with her hands raised, and then a spell card made of thinly shaved ice appeared in her hand.

The next moment, a large number of ice cones spurted out from the released spell cards and hit Lin Zhenxi.

Ice Talisman "Icefall"!
