Main Text Volume Chapter 8: Moro's Opportunity

When Mana opened the lid of the last pot of tea, there was no aroma, not even a trace of steam.

However, this extremely ordinary tea suddenly made Moro stand up, looking at the green and yellow tea with excitement.

That excited look was definitely not a show.

Moro was focused on the liquid in the teacup in his hand, and didn't even notice that when he stood up, he made a big noise and overturned the chair behind him.

Angel's doubts reached the peak at this moment. Why did Moro react so much to the morning dew after the rain? Could he tell that the morning dew after the rain came from another world?

Just as Angel was wondering in his heart, Moro slowly poured the morning dew after the rain into his mouth along the edge of the cup, cautiously and solemnly.

Moro's movements seemed very solemn, as if he had an aura, which made the originally lively atmosphere quiet down in an instant.

Leon wanted to say something, but inexplicably felt that it was better to keep his mouth shut at this moment.

The silence did not last long. When Moro closed his eyes and began to enjoy the aftertaste of the tea, an inexplicable breath came from Moro.

This breath was so shocking that everyone was stunned. Then they found that they could no longer speak.

No matter how hard they tried to speak, they could not make any sound. It was like entering an absolutely silent world!

Not being able to speak was only temporary, and the more terrifying was yet to come.

Moro suddenly opened his eyes, took out a crystal ball from his robe and placed it in the air. After muttering a few words, a ray of light flashed. In the next few seconds, they were not only unable to speak, but also restrained their movements.

"With the help of this low-level magic plant, my mental power is about to break through the barrier. In order to avoid accidents when breaking through the barrier, I have released a binding spell and a silent barrier for everyone present. After I break through, I will naturally untie it for you." Moro's voice was low and hoarse, with a strange ending.

After Moro finished speaking, he closed his eyes without caring about other people's reactions, and the crystal ball continued to circle around him...

Although the imprisoned people, including Earl Eaton, felt a little uncomfortable at first, they soon regained their composure. Angel and Leon seemed much more panicked.

The two brothers had never experienced any supernatural phenomena since they were born, and even thought that this world was the world in front of them. But today, at this moment, Moro's magical and mysterious magic broke the worldview they had built up since childhood.

It would be strange if they could remain calm when they suddenly and unpreparedly accepted what was happening in front of them!

The binding technique can make them unable to move, and the silent barrier can make them unable to speak, but this cannot stop them from thinking.

In the silent barrier, after experiencing the initial panic, Angel slowly calmed down.

His pupils also shrank back from the enlarged state.

At this time, he saw Irene, who was sitting opposite him, showing him a reassuring smile and silently said, "Don't worry."

Angel was stunned for a moment and smiled back subconsciously.

Suddenly, Irene's face turned red, and her eyes swam around, not knowing where to look.

Angel didn't think much about it, thinking that Irene was shy about being stared at, so he simply closed his eyes like Earl Eaton.

"Is this the magic in the strange story told by the mentor? Spells? Or fairy arts? Or in other words, some kind of eye-catching trick? But aren't these all made up? Could it really happen in reality?" A series of questions hovered in Angel's mind, lingering, and there was no answer.

He remembered the historical materials of nearby countries compiled by his mentor, some of which had many fantastic parts in the historical descriptions of some countries. For example, in the Goldfinch Empire, eight hundred years ago, a fire-breathing dragon appeared in the Mosan Canyon on the border of the empire, endangering the people of a region, so the king called on warriors from all over the world to slay the dragon; countless warriors, soldiers, and knights responded to the call and rushed to the dragon's location, but before they could get close, they were burned to ashes by the fire from the dragon's mouth.

This dragon-slaying battle lasted for several years, with hundreds of thousands of warriors killed and wounded, but the dragon remained unscathed.

Just when the king decided to block the dragon's location within a thousand miles, an old man in a white robe floating in the sky accidentally passed by the Mosan Canyon. He gently waved his magic wand, and the dragon was pulled into an unknown space... Then the old man in a white robe left without saying anything. According to historical records, a dragon-slaying battle began in tragedy and ended in absurdity.

Jon's comment on this historical record is: the emperor's mind, myths to reassure the people.

Angel used to think so, but at this moment, doubts arose in his heart. Perhaps the old man in a white robe, like the old man Moro, is also a person with magical powers?

In addition, in the historical records of Hailan Country, it was mentioned several times that the goddess of the sea fertilized the islanders, or that the mermaids seduced the crew and caused the fleet to sink... Not only the Golden Sparrow Empire and Hailan Country, but also the historical records of many countries have traces of myths.

Could it be that these are all fabricated?

The balance in Angel's heart began to shift slowly.

...

It didn't take long for Morro to break through the barrier, about once a small quartz hourglass flipped, which is 30 minutes according to Earth's calculation.

The crystal ball slowly fell from its hovering guarding state and quietly floated beside Morro.

Moro's expression was full of joy! How could he not be happy? He had been stuck as an intermediate apprentice for almost 20 years, thinking that he would never be able to break through to an advanced apprentice in this life, so he took the task of recruiting students listlessly and returned to the Old Earth Continent to find students with talent. When he took on this task, he still remembered his wry smile in the mirror. Looking for a gifted person? Haha, there are not many in the source plane, how could there be one in the Old Earth Continent?

He embarked on the ship to the Old Earth Continent with a depressed mood. He thought that there was nothing but thorns and despair ahead.

But! God has mercy on me, I didn't expect that this trip, which he thought was extremely boring, would bring him such a big surprise!

First, he found two gifted people, and they were his grandchildren. This not only allowed him to exceed the task, but once Allen Irene grew up, she could help him in turn.

Then, he actually found an unknown primary magic plant in the Old Earth Continent! After drinking the morning dew from a merchant on the front line, he immediately discovered that this tea was comparable to the white orchid potion.

The white orchid potion is the only one among the primary potions that has the function of breaking the wall, so it is very valuable. He worked diligently for several years just to exchange for a bottle of white orchid potion. As a result... the morning dew was found in the Old Earth Continent.

Unfortunately, the morning dew from the merchant had been stored for too long, and the effect was seriously discounted. After asking about the origin of the morning dew, they rushed to Gru Town without stopping...

Chance! This is opportunity!

At this moment, Moruo, who successfully broke through the barrier, finally understood why some wizard apprentices like to wander in dangerous ruins, because as long as they find a little opportunity, they have hope of moving forward!
