Chapter 1439 You Are a Big Liar
"Luna... stop playing, come out! I have something to tell you."
When Maca suddenly opened his mouth and said these words to the statue, everyone saw that the statue, which everyone could only stare at at first, slowly lowered its head.
And as the movement of the statue's hands slightly deformed, the silver double helix that originally shot straight into the sky finally disintegrated inch by inch in the eyes of everyone, turning into flowing silver and pouring down, and merged into the body of the mercury statue.
Then, the radiance of the sky also weakened, until the whole town returned to a large area of drowsiness that was only illuminated by street lamps.
The next moment, a foot suddenly protruded from the inside of the statue, dangling around as if looking for a foothold.
When Maca saw it, he could only smile helplessly, then reached out and grabbed the other's ankle, guiding Luna to step on the edge of the statue's base.
"Come out!"
After Maca called out again, Luna inside seemed to realize that Maca was guarding in front of her, she immediately lost her scruples, stepped on the base very neatly and jumped out.
At that moment, Luna's blond slightly curled long hair was lifted up by the mercury of the statue, and Dang Lian rolled over the top of her head with inertia, and flung it towards Maca's face with claws and teeth.
"Eh!"
Seeing this, Maca hurriedly opened her arms to catch her, and was knocked back half a step by her. And that long blond hair even covered his head.
"What are you jumping for, can't you walk well?"
Having said that, he still put Luna lightly on the ground first, brushed away the strands of hair that were all over her face, and then stretched out his index finger to poke her smooth forehead angrily.
"Got it!" Luna stroked her hair indiscriminately, and said without sincerity, "Next time I must go."
"And next time?"
Maca rolled his eyes helplessly, but soon, he couldn't help but shook his head with a wry smile.
"Well, it seems that there really is a 'next time'."
After muttering something like this, he turned around, spread his arms towards the refugees gathered in the square and said loudly:
"Gentlemen and ladies, please go back and rest! Regarding this statue, I will make some 'little' attempts. It may be a little dangerous for you to stay here—"
Due to the use of the amplifying spell, not only the people in front could hear these words, but even those standing outside could hear them very clearly. Needless to say, Maca's words were obviously very useful. After he mentioned it, the crowd quickly dispersed.
Of course, if he had to stay, there would be no "danger".
After a while, only Maca, Luna, and Ron who had just got up from the ground were left in the square.
"It's...you're all at this point, and you're still running around." Maka looked at Ron and Luna, and couldn't help reminding, "Starting tomorrow, when everyone is almost settled, there are still a lot of things to do ...You guys won't be able to run away by then, so it's best to get a good night's sleep to recharge your spirits."
"Oh, I know, but—"
Ron looked at Luna's innocent face in distress, thought for a while, and quietly swallowed the words he wanted to say the most.
"Well, anyway," he scratched his head and said, "I just can't fall asleep...and,
Hermione and the others went to help with the injuries that St. Mungo's came over, and she didn't let me...well, I mean, didn't let us go. "
"Really?" Maca couldn't help but pause after hearing that, "Hermione... well, they should also take a rest first."
After saying this with emotion, he put it aside in advance, and turned to look at Luna who was still peeking at the mercury statue.
"Don't look, you have to go in anyway, first turn your head and listen to me." Maca patted her on the shoulder, and then said, "Tell me! What does it feel like inside, is there any discomfort?" ?”
Although to be honest, he actually has a high opinion of this statue, after all, it is definitely a relatively outstanding work in the history of alchemy.
However, the use of wrapping a large living person in mercury always makes people feel a little uneasy.
After all, after checking the statue's operation just now, he found that there are not many people who can make that thing work. It is really a coincidence to meet Luna this time.
In fact, Babur, the craftsman and alchemist who made this statue back then, originally tailored the statue for that Miss Miranda. So much so that if you want to activate this statue now, you must find a woman who has a high degree of compatibility with Miranda's spirit.
For example, the simple-minded and kind-hearted Luna.
"Uncomfortable?" Hearing Maca ask how she felt inside the statue, Luna immediately shook her head and said, "No? After entering, I just felt that my eyes went dark, and then I could see things again soon." ...Well, it's as if I've turned into that statue myself! It's amazing!"
"Well," Maca nodded, as if knowing that there must be a follow-up, and then asked, "And then?"
"Well," Luna thought about it for a while, and then replied, "Then...I suddenly felt that I could do many, many things, for example, just now, I ordered a 'big moon' brighter than the moon for the whole town. Light bulb'!"
"Of course, I saw it!" Maca shrugged. "It's not just me, I think the whole town has seen it! But... is there anything else interesting? It's like... If this town is destroyed When the 'bad guys' attack, what can you do?"
"Ah!" Luna said suddenly when she heard that, "Yes... If I were inside that statue, I should be able to erect a big protective shield for the whole town! You know, the one that guards the curse safely kind."
"Is that so..."
Maca pondered for a while, and then said:
"Can you feel where that shield 'comes out' from?"
"'Where did you come from'?"
His question seemed to stump Luna all of a sudden. After Luna lowered her head and thought hard for a while, she slowly raised her head and pointed to her feet uncertainly.
"Maybe...maybe...at the foot of the statue?"
"You mean the base of the stone sculpture?"
"No, no, it's still going down—" Luna shook her head and said, "It should be a deeper place."
After hearing this, Maca finally nodded with satisfaction, then opened his arms and patted Luna and Ron lightly on the back.
"Okay, you can go back - go and have a good rest, do you hear me?"
"Eh?"
When Luna heard this, Dang even twisted her mouth reluctantly and said:
"Didn't you say you can still go in and play?"
"Oh," Maca said with a smile as if he just remembered it now, "I thought it was like this, but now it's no longer needed."
"You big liar!"
Luna immediately stared at him and wrinkled her nose, then pursed her lips, turning her head away angrily.
