Chapter 559: Chapter 405: Reflection in the Water_1
Following Scarlett’s pointing direction, Leo Ray noticed.
Not far ahead, there was a small white dot, which was expanding at a visible speed and becoming more and more bright.
This abrupt situation, in the pitch-black space, appeared particularly eye-catching, like a lighthouse in the night.
However, before anyone approached, more white dots of various sizes began to emerge in the void out of thin air.
For a moment, the dazzling situation made Leo Ray and the others, who had just adapted to the dark surroundings, somewhat dizzy.
As all of this happened in the blink of an eye, by the time Leo Ray reacted,
They were surrounded by these bright dots, each at least as large as a fist, floating silently in mid-air, seeming to be brewing something.
As a result, an inexplicable sense of danger began to slowly permeate the air.
This abnormal situation made everyone’s expressions increasingly tense and solemn.
Especially Bianca White, who was close to Leo Ray, her face was full of unrestrained vigilance, and even the long fur on her white tail began to stand on end.
At the same time, a threatening growl was brewing in her fair neck.
The pose of having her short sword horizontally across her chest and her slender legs slightly bent was like a giant wolf ready to pounce.
As a Snow Wolf Clan member, she instinctively resisted the mighty Dragon race.
“What are these white light spheres that look like giant fireflies?”
On the other side, with a look of solemnity, Scarlett held the colorful metallic short magic wand in her hand and murmured.
“In any case, the other party is clearly hostile, and it’s essential to protect Lord.”
Gideon Black on the side covered Leo Ray with his stout body, then an extraordinary momentum suddenly erupted from within him.
As soon as Gideon Black finished speaking, the anomaly suddenly occurred.
The white spheres floating in mid-air all turned deep red, like numerous bloody moons in the sky.
At the same time, waves of extremely violent energy fluctuations and a strong killing intent began to erupt from these red points, seemingly ready to launch a fierce attack at any moment.
“Prepare for battle.”
Seeing this, Leo Ray’s mind stirred, and Rolanddel appeared with a flash and prepared for battle.
At this moment, in his fully concentrated state, Leo Ray noticed.
These red spheres were still filled with hostile energy, showing no signs of weakening.
As a result, although he didn’t know what these things were or what kind of attack they would launch, the situation was undoubtedly clear now.
“Lord, please wait a moment!”
Just then, Joshua Bingaman’s clear voice suddenly entered Leo Ray’s ear.
Hearing this, Leo Ray looked in the direction of the sound and was surprised to discover.
Only the spheres in front of Joshua Bingaman remained dazzling white, not emitting scarlet light.
Noticing this, a puzzled look couldn’t help but surface on Leo Ray’s face.
“Lord, I have found that these spheres seem to sense our hostility.”
At this time, Joshua Bingaman nodded slightly to Leo Ray and raised the colorful flashing magic wand in his hand.
Next, as he pointed the tip of the wand at one of the white spheres,
That white sphere quickly turned red at a visible speed and emitted a strong hostile aura.
And when Joshua Bingaman moved the wand away, it immediately turned white again.
This magical scene made Leo Ray couldn’t help but marvel.
“Lord, I understand now. This must be a unique self-defense mechanism inside the Dragon Mirage!”
On the other side, Scarlett’s eyes lit up, as if recalling something, and immediately said: “Just as Joshua Bingaman said, this unique Illusion Realm self-defense mechanism would change according to the emotions of the intruder.
If the intruder shows strong hostility towards the spheres, the spheres will counterattack with a fighting power equal to that of the intruder.
But if the intruder’s emotions are calmed, the spheres will return to a harmless state!”
“I see, it’s like a mirror reflecting one’s inner thoughts, right?”
Upon hearing the explanation, Leo Ray put the longsword back into the Space Bracelet, and then said, “To be on the safe side, everyone, put your weapons away.”
“Yes, Lord!”
Hearing Leo Ray’s order, starting with the two maids Abigail and Amelia, everyone put their weapons into their respective storage rings.
Afterward, as expected, the crimson spheres began to turn white again, emitting no hostility anymore.
Seeing this, Leo Ray couldn’t help but sigh in relief and nodded to both Joshua Bingaman and Scarlett in appreciation.
It was needless to say that if a battle had taken place at this moment, it would have significantly slowed down the team’s progress.
On the other side, being praised by Leo Ray, Joshua Bingaman couldn’t help but smile shyly, brushing his hair back.
