Chapter 161 The Curse of "Four-Colored Fish"
The crystal ball bloomed with azure brilliance, and lines of words emerged:
"A powerful magic has cursed the land of Oz. These four different colors of fish are the transformations of the citizens of the four directions of Oz.
"The Munchkins in the East liked blue and became blue fish; the Winkies in the West liked yellow and became yellow fish; the Guitlings in the South liked red and became red fish Fish..."
Rhine looked at Oz with a solemn expression:
"A powerful magician cast a spell, turning your country into this wilderness, mountains and lakes, and turning all the people in the country into fish."
Oz was so frightened that his face suddenly turned pale.
"All of Oz?"
He originally thought that only the Emerald City was affected, but Rhine told him that the entire country was cursed!
"But the country of Oz is so big, how come there is only such a wilderness? Everyone is scattered all over the world, how come they are all concentrated in such a lake?" Oz's eyes widened.
Rhine sighed:
"This is magic, turning big things into small things, even if the object of transformation is an entire country. Even if it originally took a long time to travel across the entire country, now there is only such a wilderness and a lake."
Seeing the scene in front of him and looking at the poor fish in the lake looking at him and Oz eagerly, Rhine narrowed his eyes.
The story replayed in his mind.
"The Four-Colored Fish" from "One Thousand and One Nights"!
——In this Arabic story, the villainous witch was originally the wife of a young king, and was discovered having an affair with a black slave. In order to take revenge on her husband, the witch used magic to turn his lower body into stone and the people in the country into fish!
After being bewitched, space and geography also changed, so that the distance between the capitals of the two countries that originally took a year to complete was reduced to a few days!
Aurora was also stunned and looked around in the center of the wilderness, almost unable to believe her eyes:
"Did Maleficent do this?"
Rhine shook his head:
"No, Maleficent doesn't seem to be good at this kind of transformation magic.
"I think another witch from the coven may have helped her."
Rhine remembered the code name of a certain member of the Witches' Association——
【Witch of the Middle East】!
The Witch of the East seems to have learned her malicious transformation skills from her!
Now, he can conclude:
The true face of the [Middle Eastern Witch] of the Witch Coven is the villain witch from "The Four-Colored Fish"!
"Teacher, help me, save this country." Oz was so anxious that he looked like he was about to cry, and begged Rhine.
Rhine quickly thought about how to solve the current dilemma:
"If our enemy is really that witch, there is indeed a solution to the current situation..."
According to the original work, although the witch's magic power is powerful enough to change an entire country and distort thousands of miles of space, she is still mortal after all.
If caught off guard, any ordinary warrior can kill her with a sword!
On this continent, there are actually quite a few extreme magicians who have amazing magical power but lack the ability to protect themselves.
Not every magician can be like Rhine, with danger perception and the ability to teleport and dodge; or like Maleficent, who can transform her body into a dragon; or like the old witch in Ender, who can Resurrection once after death.
"The only question is, I wonder if [Middle Eastern Witches] have learned any self-protection magic from the daily interactions with the Witches?"
"And where is the witch who cast the spell now?"
Just as Rhine was about to try to find the whereabouts of the Middle Eastern witch, he heard the roar of a giant dragon in the air.
The strong wind swept across and blew away the clouds on the horizon.
The black dragon as huge as a hill flew across the sky, casting a huge shadow on the ground.
Maleficent the dark witch!
King Oz shivered and huddled behind Rhine.
Amidst the crisp metal sound, Aurora's sword was unsheathed and guarded by Rhine's side.
This terrifying black dragon hovered in the air and uttered a woman's voice: "It seems that you have encountered unprecedented trouble!
"Does it mean anything to you to turn Oz into this?" Rhine raised his chin calmly.
Now he is no longer afraid of Maleficent!
The young man opened his arms and released the most powerful magic power.
All the trees in the wilderness came to life, pulling out their roots and becoming loyal guards. The mountains also came alive. Human faces appeared on the top of the mountains. The entire mountains were moving and hands made of huge rocks were raised.
In the sky, millions of birds appeared out of thin air and turned into a large black mass, covering the sky in an instant. Millions of birds sang in unison, making the sky and the earth tremble. Seeing such a scene, Black Dragon's eyes condensed, obviously he did not expect this scene. There was a bit more viciousness and resentment in her voice:
"I didn't expect that not long ago, your magic became more powerful. I should have killed you that night more than 10 years ago!"
The black dragon spoke loudly in the air:
"I used the mirror as a medium to let the [Middle Eastern Witches] of the Witches cast spells through the air, transforming this country.
"No one can break this spell unless she does it herself. Not even by killing her!
"You definitely don't want to see that this country will be cursed forever, and the people in the entire country will forever turn into fish."
Under the slightly surprised eyes of Aurora and Rhine, Maleficent returned to her human form, floating in the air, and took out a piece of black hair with her backhand:
"If you refuse my next request, I will remotely curse the Middle Eastern witch. If the caster dies, Oz will never be able to return to its original state."
Aurora was startled, and Rhine's calm expression also moved slightly.
Maleficent is so vicious that she is ready to sacrifice the lives of her colleagues in order to threaten them!
Aurora stared at the air warily: "What do you want to threaten us for?"
Maleficent, who turned back into a dragon, looked at Aurora and let out a beautiful laugh, with a bit more viciousness in her cold tone:
"My beautiful little princess, what are you talking about threatening? I obviously want to help you and give you a chance to prove yourself!
"Don't you want to kill me with your own hands?
"Now, I give you this chance!
"Pick up your sword and have a fair one-on-one duel with me!"
Black Dragon glanced at Rhine next to him again and said coldly:
"That nasty magician is not allowed to interfere!"
So it turns out that Maleficent is holding the entire country hostage because she wants to challenge me. Is she confident that she won't lose to me in a one-on-one duel? Aurora understood the other party's intention and was a little hesitant.
The black dragon laughed wildly:
"How is it?
"My lovely little princess. This is your chance to kill me with your own hands and lift the curse of Rose Kingdom!
"Do you want to miss this opportunity?
"Or do you only dare to swing your sword at me with your teacher at your back?"
Aurora snorted coldly.
She clearly knew that the other party was provoking, but she didn't know what constituted an effective rebuttal.
Oz saw Aurora's hesitation and quickly dissuaded her: "No. That evil witch must be lying to you. Don't agree to her conditions!"
Aurora looked at Rhine beside her with a slight hesitation, waiting for the teacher to say, "Aurora, don't be emotional, don't believe Maleficent, refuse this duel"
"Aurora, I think you can consider Maleficent's request."
Rhine's answer surprised Aurora.
Teacher, right?
Shouldn't you persuade me?
"Aurora, this is indeed an opportunity to kill Maleficent with my own hands. At that time, in the sea between the Kingdom of White and the Kingdom of West Asia, when I was about to defeat Maleficent, I felt a little regretful because The person who should kill her most personally is you.”
Rhine's tone was calm, as if he thought it was natural for Aurora to win.
"But..." Aurora hesitated.
She didn't have the confidence to defeat the dragon that Maleficent had transformed into on her own.
But the teacher must have a deep meaning when he says this!
……
Note: The conditions for lifting different curses are different. The curse of the Rose Kingdom is "Kill the caster", and the curse of the four-colored fish is "The caster voluntarily lifts it". Killing the caster is useless.
My eyes hurt when I look at the computer these days. I have to close my eyes after looking at it for two minutes. But I feel better when I use my mobile phone. I don’t know why this happens. I need to see a doctor during this time.
