Chapter 161 The Price of Beauty
Her room is warm and bright, with the walls painted light pink and fresh-style oil paintings hanging on them.
Golden stars twinkled around the window frame and shone brightly, and the gauze curtains dimmed the scenery outside the window.
The small single bed was next to the window, covered with a thick elk pattern blanket, and several cushions embroidered with owl portraits were placed randomly on the bed.
The floor next to the bed is covered with a beige shag carpet, next to it is a small dressing table and dressing chair, as well as a white tall wardrobe.
"How did your sister disappear?" Brian carefully observed every item in the room and asked Lando who brought him in.
When he conquered Grall and others, he promised to rescue his daughter who was trapped in the secret realm of a magic book.
Now that everything has settled, it is time for him to fulfill his promise.
"It's a book, sir." Lando said to him:
"I remember very clearly that that day, my sister Sissi was in a little mood because a spell model failed to be constructed. Not good, so I took her to the market to relax. She accidentally saw a book called "The Price of Beauty" and bought it."
"Why did she buy this book?" Brian sat on the dressing chair and couldn't help but feel a little interested.
He is quite familiar with the girl Sissi.
She appeared in the player's sight four years after the past four years in the game world. She is a student of Grand Duchess Raul and the most talented spellcaster in the Mage Tower.
Mainly responsible for managing the internal affairs of the Mage Tower, as a spell caster, Brian will naturally have to come into contact with this girl.
After the city of Arabel and the Mage Tower perished together with the floating city of the Ghost People, this young girl gathered the remaining forces and survivors after the war, inherited Myrcella's will, and used her thin shoulders to , alone took up the responsibility of rebuilding the Kingdom of Cormyr and the city of Arabe.
It is said that she finally successfully broke through to the legendary realm and gradually completed the reconstruction of Arabe City.
Brian doesn’t know exactly what it looks like.
Because with the destruction of Arabel City and Myrcella, he left the Kingdom of Cormyr and chose to develop in Silvermoon City in the North, which is a distance away from the Eno Oak Desert.
In the end, in the development of Silver Moon City, his strength, which had been stuck for nearly two years and stagnated, finally succeeded in breaking through to the legendary realm.
“Sissi said this book could enlighten her, make her feel better, and also help her learn to meditate on herself and find her own worth.” Lando recalled the situation at that time and said truthfully to Brian:< br>
"That night, I saw very clearly that Sissi had returned to her room, but she disappeared without a trace the next day. We sent our best rangers, but there was no trace of her, and it was Master Ru Yin. Sensing the residual teleportation magic in the room."
"Yes, I understand." Brian nodded slightly and said to him, "I already know the general rescue method. Now give me the book. Study it. "
Lando immediately handed a book he had prepared to Brian.
The cover of the book is made of green leather, 7 inches wide and 13 inches high, and is inlaid with gold buttons.
There is a smooth oval mirror on the cover. Its golden frame is shaped like a strand of hair, as if hanging down from the face of the person in the mirror.
Feeling the very distinct scent of lily coming from the book, Brian flipped it over to check.
He saw that the book contained many beautiful illustrations of woodland, artwork, and jewelry.
Besides the illustrations are written in beautiful handwriting short prayers and forms of meditation dedicated to contemplating self-worth, the art of massage and healing, and recipes for creating balms and cosmetics, with the author Lirian on the last page ·Yinge's message: "The mirror is the gateway to happiness, truth and self-acceptance."
Lillian Yinge?
“Why are we involved with her again?” Brian said to himself in confusion. The Yinge family is famous in the Supreme Forest and is a distant relative of the Queen of Everjum Island. All the male members are sword mages and sword chanters with both magic and martial arts skills, while the females specialize in magic.
The Severil who was turned into a bear and Graz'zt's servant Salis, whom Brian met before, are the youngest daughter and son of the family.
Lillian is the eldest daughter of the Yinge family. In Brian's impression, this golden elf mage was obsessed with books and studying magic, and eventually died in the assassination of her sister.
"It seems that before I went to Silvermoon City, the eldest daughter of the Yinge family was probably in a rebellious stage like her younger brother." Brian thought to himself.
“You go out first.”
He thought for a while and said to Lando, "Tell your father and Balerius that I may be away for about half a month and let them carry out everything according to the plan I made."< br>
Lando hesitated for a moment, but did not ask in the end. He closed the door while exiting.
Brian stopped thinking and started studying the book.
He looked at the mirror on the cover of the book and found that his own appearance was not reflected.
Just when he was wondering about this, a magical light appeared on the mirror, and a human woman with flawless beauty appeared.
She was naked except for a transparent silk nightgown and her impossibly long, curving, flame-shaped red curls.
Although her hair color was always red, Brian could clearly feel her appearance changing over time.
"Hello, my dear, how are you feeling today?" At this moment, the bumpy human woman in the mirror smiled slightly and said to him in a gentle voice.
"Triggering a mandatory Will saving throw!"
"A Will saving throw in progress."
"Will save successful!"
"You successfully saved the spell effect of "Charm Human"! ”
…………
Seeing the system prompt, Brian was not surprised.
Because of the book "The Price of Beauty", when in the game world , he once heard someone mention it, and knew that the masterminds behind it were three ghost women.
Otherwise, he would not have been so confident in saying that he could save Graal's daughter.
At the same time, soft words came from the mirror again:
“If you need to relax, rest or change, then please follow the path of lilies, my dear. I believe in Lilian Will satisfy any of your needs."
Then, the mirror began to glow softly, and a 5-foot-wide and 7-foot-tall portal appeared in the unoccupied space on the ground.
Brian saw that the portal led to an ancient woodland path with pillars carved with lilies.
After seeing that the location of this place was indeed the Moon Forest adjacent to Silver Moon City, he no longer hesitated and stepped directly into the disappearing portal.
