After killing the monster, Tolly and Jenny thought they were able to take a short break. Yet, they quickly ran into another monster.This monster was even more formidable than the first one. It was a giant dragon with scales as hard as steel and fire-breathing abilities that could easily turn Tolly and Jenny into ashes.The two people knew they had to think fast if they wanted to survive. They looked around for any weapons or items they could use to defend themselves, but they found nothing.Just as the dragon was about to attack, Tolly had an idea. It looked like he had to employ the diamond ring given by Ms. Gorgon before it was too late.“Open diamond ring!” shouted Tolly quickly.As he spoke the words, the diamond ring began to glow and emit a bright light. Tolly immediately felt a surge of energy coursing through his body. At the same time, he hugged Jenny in his arms tightly. In this way, he knew they were able to be protected from any danger that came their way.Sure enough, wh
“What’s the name of your monster?” asked Tolly, “I think it’s like you, Peter Hazlitt.”“Bullshit! It’s like me in the least. Since you want to know its name, I’ll let you know it. It’s called Thornyrose,” replied Peter Hazlitt.“Wow, Thornyrose? It’s a kind of joke, isn’t it?” Tolly sneered.“Go to get him, my Thornyrose, he’s trying to make fun of you,” said Peter Hazlitt.It looked like the monster called Thornyrose understood what Peter Hazlitt said. It immediately lunged at Tolly and Jenny that was wrapped in the center of the protective white ball. Tolly’s golden Guardian quickly blocked the attacks from the Thornyrose.“Your pet is not bad, huh? What’s his name?” asked Peter Hazlitt, pointing to Tolly’s golden guardian.“Oh, you mean my guardian?” sneered Tolly, “It’s called Smashrose, so your Thornyrose has to be more careful this time.”“Smashrose?” said Peter Hazlitt, gritting his teeth, “I’ll see who smashes who.”With that, his Thornyrose quickly launched its second round
“Okay, thank you, Tolly, I feel weak all over,” said dear Fanta Miss. It looked like she would faint at any moment.Tolly quickly held her tight in his arms.“Now jump on my back, Jenny,” said Tolly again, “In this way, we might have a chance to get away from Peter Hazlitt. I’ve never thought that his monster is so powerful.”“It’s true,” said Jenny, “hope we can find a place to hide.”“We will,” Tolly comforted her, continuing to walk with her on his back until they arrived at a cave.“There’s a cave here. Shall we go inside it or not?” asked Tolly.“I don’t know,” answered Jenny.While they were talking, they heard a voice laughing behind them,“Where are you heading for?” said the voice, “We’re going to catch up with you soon.”It was no one else but Peter Hazlitt, who rode on his Thornyrose.“It looks like we’ve got no other choice,” said Tolly, “we have to go inside the cave now. Perhaps it was going to offer us an opportunity to find something valuable to help us to fight agains
[There is a button in one of the sculptures that can open the gate for you, my dear Tolly.]That was the message that he only got on the screen from his system.“Come on, let’s check the sculptures, Jenny. I’m sure there will be a button there that can help us to get into the mausoleum,” said Tolly quickly.“Really, but I didn’t notice any button when I looked at them before,” said Jenny.“You won’t be disappointed,” said Tolly confidently, “You know, Jenny, I’ll tell you more about this Mausoleum later.”“I believe you. Now I’ll go to check them and find the button there,” said Jenny, who went to the sculptures immediately.Jenny went to have a close look at one of the Sphinx-like sculptures on the left first. It was about three feet tall and one foot wide. Staring at the human face of the Sphinx, Jenny did not find any button on it.After that, she started to check its body. However, its body was so smooth that there was no way to have a button hidden on it. Jenny was quite disappoi
Jenny’s face was redder than before. She turned around and said in a low voice,“I think we’d better find the treasure as fast as we could. And then find a way out of here.”“Where there is an entrance, there is an exit. Don’t worry, Jenny. I promise I’ll find the way out for us,” reassured Tolly, patting her on her shoulders.Tolly’s words made Jenny feel much better. Actually, it was dark inside the mausoleum. They could see any light coming from outside. Apparently, it was a palace sealed perfectly.“Okay, let me light some fire here,” said Tolly. By driving some of his vital energy to his hands, he quickly employed his Lotus Prod. In a minute, there appeared some red glow at the end of his fingers.Soon, by the light, Tolly discovered there were two rows of torches on the walls. After sending the red glows at his fingertips to those torches, all of them were lit up instantly.“Well done,” said Jenny, “You’ve done a good job, Tolly,”“Thank you, Jenny,” replied Tolly, “I’m happy t
Meanwhile, he turned around and said to Jenny,“Jenny, help me when I launch my new round of attack,” said Tolly.“No problem, Tolly,” said Jenny, nodding her head, “but how can I help you?”“When I get my new fireballs in the hands, you can transmit some of your vital energy. In this way, my fireballs will grow bigger,” said Tolly.“Okay, I’ll do as you’ve asked me to do,” said Jenny quickly.As Tolly got two new fireballs in each of his hands, Jenny quickly transmitted some of her vital energy to Tolly. Sure enough, the fireballs in his hands quickly grew larger than before. Tolly immediately hurled them to those two powerful warriors. As the fireballs were flying in the air, they turned themselves into two fire phoenixes, which flew toward the bodies of the two warriors.Instantly, the two warriors were soon wrapped inside the blazing fire.Painful cries echoed in the sky. In a flash, the bodies of the warriors were burnt to ashes and there was only armor falling down to the ground
Tolly smiled at them and then continued to talk to General Ray,“I used to read a lot about history and harbored almost the same idea as you, but you know, I much repent for my former subscription to such a parochial idea, and would that I would have spent all the hours when I studied labyrinthine history on literature.”Suddenly, Tolly was quite like a professor or an erudite scholar to General Ray, who listened to him silently, expressionless.“You know, the reason that we took books on history as of great value is not fallacious in general principles, but specious in understating truth and nature, actually. I adamantly believe that for any books to be of great value to the readers, they must convey to them these two things: nature and truth.”“That’s why I like reading history, not novels, you know,” said General Ray.“But the problem is, General Ray, it is completely wrong to assume that historians are more capable of telling truth and nature than master novelists, dramatists, or
“I think you’ve forgotten who I am,” said Princess Nicole in an angry voice, “Look at me closely! Do you realize who I am now, General Lionheart?”Tolly thought the name ‘Lionheart’ was quite fit for the monster before them, for he did have a big head with a lot of hair like a lion. The monster quickly cast another glance at Princess Nicole. Identifying who she was, he quickly knelt down and said with his lion-like head looking at the ground,“Sorry, Princess Nicole. I’ve never thought that it is you. But why are you able to get out of your place? Anyway, you’ve been cut off your head and trapped where you are. How can you get out of it? Who has helped you?”“I’ve already gained my freedom, General Lionheart. Thank you for your concern,” said Princess Nicole, “General Ray has also gained his freedom. If you want to get out of here together with us, I will be happy about it.”“What?!” suddenly General Lionheart raised his head high, glaring at General Ray furiously, “But We’ve already
