By driving some of his vital energy to his hands, Tolly immediately employed his Phoenix Flying Technique. Because he was a master alchemist of level one now, the fireballs that appeared on his hand were ten times larger than before. As he sent out the two fireballs in his hands toward the bulldozer-like mold, his spiritual beast Fiona Dragon spat out some of its saliva, which contained a lot of vital energy in it. When it met the two fireballs, they suddenly became ten times bigger again. As they advanced toward the bulldozer-like mold, they turned into two giant fire phoenixes. As they went through it, a big fire started to heat it crazily with its flames licking around. “Good,” said Tolly happily, “I believe the daggers in the bulldozer-like mold will soon be boiled. At that time, the mold will shape a real bulldozer for us.” As they watched the fire before them attentively, they even forgot to talk to one another. It looked like they took the view in front of them as one of the
In the first five minutes of the competition, Fiona Dragon was flying ahead of Ginger and Jeremy. However, Ginger sped up to its fastest speed. Five minutes later, Ginger was far more ahead of Fiona Dragon as well as Jeremy. It looked like Ginger was going to win the competition in the end. Yet, suddenly a sandstorm appeared in the sky. A few seconds later, there was sand everywhere in the air. Tolly and his friends, as well as their spiritual beasts, could not see anything clearly in front of them. “Darn it,” said Tolly, “Does it mean we’ll face another problem?” “Probably, my dear master Tolly,” replied Fiona Dragon, “there is sand on my whole body. I feel I’m not myself now. You know, I also feel quite dizzy, so I think we must land down somewhere below.” “All right, Fiona,” said Tolly, turning to his friends at the same time, “we have to land somewhere down below. Fiona feels exhausted. Besides, it’s too dangerous if we continue to fly in the sandstorm.” “Okay, Let’s fly down
[There is a switch 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. “Come on, let’s check the sculptures. I’m sure there will be a switch there that can help us to get into the mausoleum,” said Tolly quickly. “I hope you’re not talking nonsense,” said Peggy. “You won’t be disappointed,” Tolly shot back, “You know, I’ll tell you more about this mausoleum later, I promise.” “Yeah, I believe you. I’m sure you can do it when your soul and your body are in great harmony,” said Peggy ironically again. “You two are quite funny,” said Luna, “believe it or not, I think I will be the first one to find that switch if you keep arguing like this.” With that, Luna came to have a close look at one of the Sphinx-like sculptures on the left. It was about three feet high and one foot wide. Staring at the human face of the Sphinx, Luna did not find any switch on it. After that, she started to check its body. However, its
“Fantastic,” said the voice of the maidservant in the mausoleum, “Thank you. You’ve got to be very careful. There are a lot of brutal yet powerful warriors here.” “We will. I promise we’ll find your head here and give you the freedom you want,” said Luna. “You know, my head must be buried somewhere in this mausoleum. I couldn’t remember where exactly it is now. Just go find yourself,” said the voice of the maidservant. “Okay, we’ll be back here later. Thank you for letting us go this way,” said Luna. “You scratch my back, and I’ll scratch yours, Luna,” said the voice. “Anyway, thank you, I’m always your sister, please remember that,” said Luna quickly. Thus, without launching any fight, Tolly and his friends were able to walk deep into the mausoleum. As they walked to the end of the hall, suddenly they discovered two warriors donning dazzling armor guarding the door that led to another chamber. “Hey, who are you?” said one of the warriors, pointing at them with the spear in his
“Go ahead! I want to see how you convince me!” said General Raymond donning the silver armor, “What do you mean by ‘novels make history alive’?” “Well, when you read history, it’s not what really happened in the past, but what the historians who write history want you to read,” explained Tolly, “Do you agree with me, General Raymond?” “Yeah, I have to say you’re not wrong about it,” said General Raymond, his grey face suddenly glowing with a beam of white light. It looked like he got some enlightenment from what Tolly had just said. “A little, please go ahead. I’m still not convinced,” said General Raymond, looking a little bit impatient. “Can you elaborate on your point, Tolly?” whispered Luna, “or are you stalling time for us?” “No, I’m sure I can convince him, don’t worry,” said Tolly in a low voice, “you know back on Earth, I like philosophy a lot.” “See, Luna, Tolly starts to talk nonsense again,” said Peggy, twiddling her fingers. Tolly smiled at them and then continued to
“We should thank you, Princess Nicole,” said Tolly. “No sweat, follow me,” said Princess Nicole, floating in the air, “I’ll guide to the door that can help you back to the surface of the plain above.” “I want to join you,” said General Raymond suddenly, “I don’t want to be trapped here all my life. Can I go with you?” “Of course, General Raymond,” said Tolly excitedly, “Let’s get out of here together.” They followed Princess Nicole to go up to a new floor. Nevertheless, as soon as they passed through the door of the new floor, they quickly ran across a monster with a human face and a cow head. “Who are you?” said the monster furiously, “Stop there, or you’re cruising for a bruising.” “I think you’ve forgotten who I am,” said Princess Nicole in an authoritative voice, “Look at me closely, General Cowhead.” Tolly thought the name ‘Cowhead’ was quite fit for the monster before them. The monster quickly cast another glance at Princess Nicole. Identifying who she was, he quickly knel
Puppets of mech robots were especially powerful. They suddenly held out their mechanical arms. In a flash, they simply turned their arms into cannons that could fire bullets or small bombs. Before other puppet warriors could land themselves on the bodies of those cow-headed monsters, all the monsters were shot to death or exploded into ashes in a minute. “How could it be possible?” exclaimed General Cowhead, pointing at one of the mech robots, “what exactly are they? Why are they so powerful?” “Oh, they are one of puppets I made. Do you like my design? It’s cool, isn’t it?” said Tolly flatly. Without the further attacks from the cow-headed monsters, General Raymond’s yellow light ball was gradually gaining its light again. With a roar, General Raymond instantly made his yellow light ball on fire. Thus, all the three-thronged weapons landed on it were all burned into ashes in a few seconds. He was happy that he was not in great danger anymore. “Thank you, Tolly,” said General Raymo
“That’s great, your majesty,” said Duke Charles Smith excitedly, “General Raymond and Cowhead wants to betray you. Besides, your daughter Princess Nicole has not been under your control. She wants to get out of here.” “I know, my dear teacher,” said Emperor James. Suddenly, a middle-aged man in his fifties appeared in the sky. When sighting him, General Raymond and Cowhead quickly knelt down and said to him, “Nice to see you again, your majesty.” “How dare you two betray me?” fumed Emperor James with indignation, “I want to kill you.” And then he gave Tolly a hard glare and said to him, “I have underestimated you. I never expected that you could talk both of the generals into joining you. What surprised me most is that you freed the soul of my daughter.” “If there’s one thing I am known for, that should be my ability to have good luck,” Tolly said with a mocking smile, “I’m happy that I could get your daughter’s head back to her body. In this way, I freed her soul from the cont
