Chapter 117 The Return of the Problem

After delivering snacks to Zhong Ming, Melanie went to look for her stepmother, Fana, with a plate full of peas, full of joy, thinking that she could go to the dance.

"Aunt Fana, I've sorted out all the peas, can I go to the dance?" Melanie asked expectantly.

But Fana frowned and looked at the plate full of peas, and said, "No, no! Melanie, you don't have a dress, you can't dance, you can't go."

Melanie begged her hard again, after all, this was a good time to change her fate.

Fana was also annoyed, and said: "If you can pick these two plates of peas from the ashes within one Zor (1.5 hours), you can go to the dance."

After speaking, he poured two plates of peas into the ashes, stirred them for a while, and then walked away triumphantly.

A gloomy expression flashed across Melanie's face, she turned and ran out the back door, and came to the garden again.

……

Just as Zhong Ming was exploring the oak tree in surprise, Melanie came under the oak tree and began to make a wish to the oak tree.

"Doves and turtledoves flitting across the sky, come! Fly here!

Happy bird friends, come fly!Fly here quickly!

Come and help me, everyone, quickly pick out the peas in the ashes! ""

The former doves and turtledoves flew over again, and then all the birds in the vicinity, chirping and flapping, flew again to the ashes.

The birds began to pick up the peas, one by one, and kept picking!

They picked all the peas out of the ashes and put them in a tray, and it was done very quickly, this time even faster than the last time.

Zhong Ming observed this fluctuation of magic power again at a close distance. In Zhong Ming's eyes, this fluctuation of magic power was just a layer of packaging or a cover, and it contained divine power!

This force that drives birds and beasts is not spells, but authority, divine power!

"It's really interesting, I'm treated like a protagonist now? Wherever I go, I can find treasures?" Zhong Ming thought to himself, looking at the weak divinity with extremely incomplete authority in the core of the oak tree.

But Zhong Ming was not in a hurry to take out this divinity so quickly.

Because this kind of broken and high-quality divinity generally implies the consciousness of fallen gods, absorbing this divinity in a hurry can easily pollute one's own divine body and divinity, and the gain outweighs the loss.

It is better to study the root of this tree and collect it when it is ready.

Moreover, Zhong Ming himself has a vague sense of familiarity with the bloody plot of the Badraco family, and believes that Melanie will give him more opportunities to observe the process of the oak tree displaying its divine power at close range.

After Melanie and the birds thanked her, she went to look for Fana again with a plate, feeling extremely excited, thinking that she could go to the ball.

But Fana rejected her again with an ugly face, and said: "Forget it! Don't waste your time, you can't go. You don't have a dress, you can't dance, you will only embarrass our Badraco family. "

At this time, after tossing and tossing, it is almost time for the dance to start.

After Fana said this, she led her two daughters and set off for the ball together with Kelvin.

Now, everyone in the family has left, oh, there is still the god Zhong Ming who is secretly watching everything.

Melanie stayed alone in the back garden, sitting sadly under the oak tree and crying: "Oak tree! Please help me, please shake it, and shake off the whole gold and silver dress for me."

Her friend Bird flew out from the tree and brought her a gorgeous dress with gold and silver threads and a pair of crystal dancing shoes that are unique in the world.

Melanie thought about it, and then asked Oak for an invitation letter and a luxurious carriage, and Oak fulfilled her wishes one by one.

Her friend Bird flew out of the tree again and brought her an exquisite invitation.

Then the birds caught several more mice and dragged a big pumpkin, and a dazzling light from the oak shrouded the mice and the pumpkin.

After the light dissipated, the mouse had turned into several handsome white horses, and the pumpkin had turned into a delicate and gorgeous carriage.

Zhong Ming just watched everything happen quietly, and also had some guesses about the incomplete authority contained in this divinity - the driving of birds and beasts, and the transformation of forms.

Wizards' spells are not without similar effects.

Beast Taming, Contract... Many spells have the effect of driving birds and beasts; Transfiguration, Apparition... Many spells can also change the shape of the body.

However, the consumption of maintaining the spell effect is not small.

It is so easy and freehand, so perfect that no flaws can be seen, and only authority can do it.

After tidying up and putting on her dress, Melanie took the invitation letter, boarded the pumpkin carriage, and rushed towards the capital.

The city of Carindia is not far from Nabrian City, the capital of the Principality of Yige, otherwise Kelvin would not be able to grab the invitation so quickly.

Of course, riding in a carriage is not the most luxurious way. Some nobles who are far away even use extremely expensive teleportation circles.

It is true that the Principality of Yige rejects wizards and suppresses their status, but there are quite a few magic items that should be available.

Facts have proved that they don't really hate wizards, they just hate wizards who come to grab jobs and status.

The speed of this magical carriage is far beyond that of ordinary carriages, and these white horses seem to be in harmony with Melanie's mind, so they don't need much driving skills at all.

Soon, Melanie surpassed her family members. After showing the invitation letter to the guards of the palace, they led them to the ballroom.

Of course, Zhong Ming flew in the sky effortlessly, and followed Melanie's carriage to the ballroom one after the other.

Following all the way, it can be regarded as Zhong Ming's little curiosity to witness the "story".

After putting on the luxurious dress, Melanie, who was already pretty and beautiful, now looked so elegant, beautiful, and rare.

"Mr. Ming!" Melanie, who was dressed up to attend, waved her hand and greeted in surprise.

"Oh, Melanie, you are shockingly beautiful." Although she was wearing a veil that covered half of her face, Zhong Ming, who had an immortal body, naturally found her easily.

The dance began soon, with all kinds of precious ingredients, luxurious tableware, and moving music, all in line with the dignity and style of the Principality.

Just when the guests were about to show off their talents and enjoy themselves, an abrupt voice interrupted them.

"Dear gentlemen, beautiful ladies, I am sorry to disturb your interest, but the principality has reached a critical moment of survival, and we need your wisdom to help the principality tide over the difficulties."

The one who spoke out was Grand Duke Dickor Feixis who was still kneeling in front of Zhong Ming this morning.

"The thing is like this, today, suddenly a crown descended to the palace..."

After some narration, the three questions asked by Zhong Ming successfully spread to the elites of the entire kingdom, coupled with the emergency magic communication during the day, presumably most people in the whole country will know these three questions .

"Although our wisdom is difficult to solve the second and third questions, I think it should not be difficult to gather your wisdom to work out the answer to the first question."

"Almost all of you are taking shelter under the principality to enjoy the current wealth and honor."

"You don't want the principality to be destroyed and lose your current life, do you?"

After a while, Zhong Ming stared at the pen and paper in front of him, lost in thought...
