Pioneering

"Gretel, Gretel!" A clear female voice came from the beach.

"Coming, coming." The girl's charming voice approached quickly.

The girl with long hair shawl, a smile like a flower, wearing a bright bikini, walked briskly on the fine sand.

She danced her slender arms like a happy seagull, gently lapping at the waves.Her smart eyes revealed a mischievous look, as if she were a fairy of the sea, blending in with the ocean.

"Are you going to deliver something to that loser Hansel again?" Another mature and gorgeous lady is full of energy, with short hair flying, wearing a sporty swimsuit, lying on a beach chair showing off her fitness figure.

"Oh, Teacher ZhuVi," the girl Gretel skillfully held the beautiful woman's arm and rubbed it on her chest like a baby, "he is my brother after all."

"Ha, brother," ZhuVi smiled disdainfully, "a good-for-nothing who is over 80 years old and has not been promoted to an official wizard will sooner or later have to be buried in order to repay his brother, and he will soon become a dead brother."

"Gretel, don't invest unnecessary emotions in unnecessary people, otherwise you will be unbearably hurt. This is the most valuable experience I have gained in my life."

"Wizards are always lonely and lonely."

ZhuVi looked up at the bright sunshine with emotion, both preaching and self-deprecating.

"No!" Gretel mustered up the courage to retort, "Brother is not an unnecessary person. Teacher, you and my brother are my most important and indispensable relatives!"

ZhuVi heard Gretel's words and looked at her with complicated eyes: "I'm very happy that you can call the teacher the most important person, but I'm not happy if you put me and Hansel together."

"Also, Gretel, you have to learn to be independent. I can't always be with you. No one can never leave you. You have to get used to 'missing' something."

Zhu Bi looked toward the southeast with complex eyes: "If one day I want to leave you, you must learn..."

"Oh, how could it be possible? I want the teacher to never leave me..." Gretel pestered Zhu Vi while applying expensive sunscreen, and continued to act coquettishly towards her.

"Teacher, you've been talking a lot lately..."

"Teacher, after you finish painting, let's go surfing!"

Zhu Vi shrugged: "What fun is there in this childish game? It's not difficult at all. You have to put on such revealing clothes. You are getting more and more..."

"Oh, come on, teacher, we've already reserved the venue anyway..."

There should have been many tourists on the sun-drenched beach, but at this time there were only two beauties enjoying the beautiful scenery.

They rush towards the waves without fear, crashing into them and transforming into a brave storm.

Their laughter seems to ignite the entire beach with passion, as if a ray of joyful sunshine shines into everyone's heart.

Two beauties play with each other and chase the waves.Sometimes they jump together, waving their arms, releasing endless energy; sometimes they chase each other, like two cheerful dolphins, leaving a string of happy footprints on the beach.

The sun reflected on their skin, and fine sand flew under their feet.The breeze blew by, blowing their long and short hair, turning them into a beautiful picture.

Their laughter echoed, echoed, echoed along the shoreline...

On this quiet beach, it seems that their joy and vitality will be frozen in this moment and bloom forever.

……

In the evening, ZhuVi carried the drunk Gretel back to the beach vacation villa.

ZhuVi used her mage's hands to drag the girl's increasingly mature and beautiful body, and gently placed her on the soft bed.

"Teacher, teacher, don't leave me..." The girl's blurred eyes flashed with hazy light, and she said drunkenly.

"You," a softness flashed in Zhu Vi's eyes, "Gretel, you are such a careless child. It's almost 100 years old and you still haven't grown up."

"If it weren't for you, I would have succeeded in revenge."

It's a pity that the girl still didn't hear the repeated words "Then take revenge tomorrow" from her mouth.

ZhuVi adjusted the girl's lying position, removed all sharp objects in the room, patted her chest gently, and felt that her breathing was smooth. She lay on her side with her head slightly turned to the side.

After feeding Gretel some more water, ZhuVi gently covered her with a thin blanket and slowly closed the door.

That move was like a mother taking care of her young child.

"Teacher..." After Zhu Vi walked away, the girl opened her eyes suddenly. She still looked drunk. She lifted the quilt, hugged her knees with her hands, curled up in a corner, and shed tears from the corners of her eyes.

……

"Teacher!" When she woke up the next day, the girl Gretel walked briskly downstairs, but she couldn't find any trace of Zhu Vi. She panicked for a while and ran around.

"Teacher~"

"Teacher ZhuVi~"

Gretel searched every room repeatedly, and finally found this letter on the dining table:

[Dear Gretel,
You are a teacher.

Don't look for me, I'm gone.

I am very lucky to have a student like you, you are my pride.

After you became my student, I always regarded you as my own daughter and cherished you deeply.

I guide you and help you on your path as a wizard, as my mentor did to me.

Over the years, I have witnessed your growth and progress, and I am extremely proud of your talents.

However, I also want to remind you of something important, because right now you are more important to me than anything else.

As a five-ring wizard, you are not weak, but you are not powerful either. You will still face various challenges and difficulties, be involved in danger, and even face some very painful things.

You must be cautious and strong, and live happily with my blessing.

The power of wizards is fascinating and dangerous. No matter when and where, you must first protect yourself, do not pursue uncontrollable power, and do not be driven by excessive desires and impulses to avoid falling into dangerous situations.This is also the reason why I don’t teach you the "Blood Code"...

During your journey as a wizard, you will encounter various temptations and challenges. Remember to always be cautious, doubtful and scrutinizing the authenticity of information to avoid falling into traps or being fooled easily.

Never sign a contract with an unknown being, never!
You must continue to learn and improve your abilities...

You need to make reliable friends...

Gretel, these instructions are not only the care of a tutor for his students, but also the care of a "mother" for her "daughter".

I hope you take this advice to heart, and I hope you are happy.

As you grow up, I hope you take care of yourself, I hope you are happy, and I hope you become a brilliant wizard beyond me!The bracelet on the table contains some small gifts I gave you. If you encounter trouble that cannot be solved, take the contents of the box in the bracelet to find Yaxia's owner.

I have given up on revenge, don't worry about me.Hatred means nothing to me anymore.

Heartfelt blessing,
your mentor
Zhu Bi]

Gretel looked at the word "Dear" written over and over again on the letter. She leaned over and sat down, sobbing softly.

After a long time, Gretel regained her composure, picked up the bracelet, and explored the contents inside.

Five million Yaxian gold dollars were packed in five large boxes, and a deposit certificate containing a password of 500 million gold dollars.

The password for the deposit certificate is Gretel's birthday.

Some precious potions, some priceless spell-casting materials, potion materials, stacks of precious wizarding books, a large number of high-quality magic crystals piled randomly...

Of course, there must be an exquisite metal box that is carefully sealed layer by layer.The dense array above makes people's scalp numb.

……

Jueling Mountains, core area.

In a dark and hidden cave, with almost no light visible, there are some huge stone pillars and walls, and a few drops of water falling from the top of the cave to the ground.

ZhuVi opened the magic shield and frowned to keep out the water droplets.

"Blood fire."

Zhu Vi opened her lips slightly, and a voluptuous red fire suddenly shot out from in front of her. Like a living cunning rabbit, like a brisk wind, it quickly circled the cave, filling the cave with a damp and musty smell. The air, the strange smell, and the screams of bats were all swept away.

"You're here." A long and lingering voice came from the depths of the cave.

Soon, ZhuVi walked deep into the cave: "Yes, I'm here."

A mithril coffin outlined with various mysterious runes was embedded on the ground. A red-gold peg was inserted into the mithril coffin, nailing the coffin there.

A ray of sunlight came in from the hole above the cave and shone on the pegs, as if activating something, the whole pegs and coffin exuded a miraculous light.

"You look very reluctant." Vlad said from inside the silver coffin.

"Who wants to be associated with a dangerous guy like you?" Zhu Vi said, "A hundred years is still too short, time flies by so fast."

"Haha, that's right. It's a pity that you have to save this annoying monster like me, isn't it?" Vlad was not angry, "How about it, it seems that your code practice is pretty good."

"Well, I am already a wizard of the ninth ring, and I have half understood the law of blood. It's amazing, it's amazing."

"You can achieve such an achievement without absorbing my blood, Ms. Zhu Bi, I am impressed by you."

"Haha, I don't need you to look at me with admiration, so hurry up. Can you break the seal and save you by using the 'Blood Abyss True Body'?" Zhu Vi asked, recalling the contents of the code.

"That's right, but it's not enough. It also needs some assistance from some small spell-casting materials and rituals." Vlad said.

"Materials? Ritual?" Zhu Vi frowned, "Vlad, you didn't tell me that you still need these things. If you look for them now, it's beyond the one-hundred-year limit. It's not my fault. The contract..."

"You don't have to worry about time," Vlad said calmly, "I have already found the location of all the casting materials, you can just go and get them.

The ritual is also recorded in the code, the 'Fornast Power Circle' that confers power. You have studied it for nearly a hundred years, and you should know that there is nothing wrong with the ritual. "

"You can still find so many spell-casting materials in the seal?" Zhu Bi asked in surprise.

Vlad explained: "My body and strength are firmly sealed here. This is using the entire northern continent's magic energy veins as a seal to pull the star's energy. I can't break free.

But my consciousness and thoughts are far more powerful than my body. Occasionally I can observe something with great effort and affect some things outside the seal.It's just that the backlash of this seal is more severe, so I don't use it often. "

ZhuVi thought for a long time, and finally nodded in agreement. After all, the backlash of the contract is not fun if it is a true breach of contract.

Amidst the screams and struggles, the seal once again shined brightly, attacking Vlad fiercely. Vlad struggled to send out a ray of consciousness.

ZhuVi obtained some information about the casting materials from her consciousness and turned around to leave.

As she walked away, the void in the cave suddenly seemed to ripple, and a flounder swam out along the ripples.

"Vlad, you must be so excited, you are finally out of trouble." The flounder's lips moved like a sneer.

"Of course I'm excited. I'm not a crazy alien god like you. I've been trapped in this narrow space for countless tens of thousands of years. Who wouldn't be excited?"

"But when I think about this wonderful world that will soon be transformed beyond recognition by your outer gods, my joy is extinguished a lot," Vlad said.

Flounder said: "What's wrong with integrating into us? Countless worlds were originally a chaos, and their destination is also a chaos. Chaos is the eternal truth."

"And you will become a part of Chaos. You and those who can only become Chaos dust are already much better."

"Then I really want to thank you, thank you for sending me into Chaos." Vlad teased, "Would you like me to come out and kowtow to you again, my benefactor and mentor?"

"That's not necessary, it's just a deal. I have put all the casting materials as you said, and I will let her 'go through difficulties' before she can get these things. These humans are really strange. They can get them without any effort. worried."

"Who said it wasn't..."

……

Another half year passed, and a slightly haggard ZhuVi returned to the seal again.

"Flana, I have found all the casting materials you want, do you think that's right?" Zhu Vi thought that she had obtained these things with her own hands, and her vigilance about the process of rescuing people was slightly relaxed.

"That's right, that's all."

"It's really not easy to find these things. Dream dragon teeth, withered vines, green crow feathers... and the hearts of extremely greedy people. I don't know how many bandits' nests I found before I found what you mentioned. That person’s heart is really troublesome!”

"Haha, that's really troublesome for Ms. Zhu Vi to worry about. Madam, please draw the magic circle as soon as possible and rescue me." Vlad said.

When Zhu Bi heard that the magic circle was carved by herself, she felt more at ease and began to carve the ritual magic circle bit by bit.

Soon, blood-red lines covered the original images in the cave, filling them completely.

"Let's begin!" Vlad's impatient voice came from the seal.

The closer Zhu Vi got to the completion in the past few days, the more uneasy she felt. Taking advantage of the unpreparedness of the monster in the seal, Qiao Qiao slightly adjusted the ritual description in a few places. If there were any changes, it could be terminated at any time. Feeling that it was foolproof, she said: "Then... let's start."

Weird prayers sounded in the dark cave... (End of this chapter)
