21st Century Necromancer

Chapter 333 Mythical Creature (Requesting monthly tickets, Requesting subscriptions)

Although by the autumn and winter seasons, the region south of the Yangtze River in China mostly experiences drizzling rain and damp, chilly weather, capable of making people from the north, who live in colder temperatures, shiver with cold, this winter's weather has exceptionally maintained clear skies.

Despite lacking a bit of the winter atmosphere without any snowflakes falling, for those going out for recreation, a rare sunny day is indeed a delightful affair, and the absence of snow didn't affect the joy of the adventurers.

"Mr. Chen Yu, do you think this mountain could really be transformed from the Jinwu Divine Bird as you told me?" Walking on a moderately high hill in the park and gazing at the scenery below, Jounouchi Hiromi recalled the mythological stories Chen Yu had shared with her and asked curiously.@@@@

"I am not certain about that question either, for from the perspective of a common person, no matter how you look at it, it appears to be just an ordinary earthen hill; it is only that for thousands of years it has been endowed with various beautiful legends." Chen Yu found it difficult to answer Jounouchi Hiromi's question, but he still said to her, "However, from our perspective, this myth could very well be real, after all. The existence of mythical creatures often exceeds our understanding of life, and what forms they may take can indeed be unimaginable.

"There must also be records of these mythical creatures in the 'Crimson Hymn,' Hiromi. Do you think it would be so unusual for Jinwu, if truly a mythical creature, to turn into a mountain?"

"Hmm, that makes sense." Remembering the mythical creatures she had read about in the "Crimson Hymn," which had transformed into lakes, mountains, rivers, and other entities after death, Jounouchi Hiromi thought that a mountain being the transformation of a bird might not be so unbelievable.

Apart from the mountain, Jounouchi Hiromi suddenly remembered another protagonist in the mythological story Chen Yu had told her, and her eyes sparkled as she looked at Chen Yu, asking, "Mr. Chen Yu, I recall you mentioned that the name of this city comes from the corpse of a Chinese Mountain Pit Viper that was killed by the Divine Bird. Do you think the body of that huge serpent monster still exists? And if it does, could it be resurrected with necromancy?"

"Hahaha!" Jounouchi Hiromi's words immediately made Chen Yu burst into laughter, but after his laughter, he couldn't help contemplating the possibility of such an occurrence.

Even though she thought this way, Jounouchi Hiromi couldn't help but secretly open her True Vision, even borrowing Xiao Lan's power, trying to get a glimpse of the mountain said to be transformed from the Jinwu Divine Bird.

However, when Jounouchi Hiromi focused her gaze on the mountain and her vision penetrated the surface soil, all she could see was a dazzling golden color.

"Feeling better? Do your eyes still hurt?" Looking at Jounouchi Hiromi who was still rubbing her swollen eyes, Chen Yu couldn't help but be torn between laughter and concern, but he still asked caringly, "Do you need me to buy you some eye drops?" Read new chapters at My Virtual Library Empire

"No need, I'll be fine after resting a bit more. It's just eye strain from the bright light, it's not that serious." Jounouchi Hiromi tried blinking her eyes in an effort to relieve the soreness, but no matter what she did, her vision remained a blurry red, and she couldn't see anything clearly.

"Hiromi, you're too bold. Didn't Xiao Lan try to stop you? You can't look directly at deities!" Chen Yu teased, barely able to hide his laughter, even sounding a bit schadenfreude.

Using a bought bottled drink to cool her eyes, Jounouchi Hiromi, feeling a bit better from the cold temperature, heard Chen Yu's laughter and immediately hit him in dissatisfaction, "Really, Mr. Chen Yu, you're laughing! You must have known about this all along, right?

Ah! I remember now, you also had a time when your eyes inexplicably turned red; I thought you'd been partying all night at a club. But thinking about it now, even if you partied ten nights in a row at a night club, your eyes wouldn't become red like that. You definitely went to see a deity, didn't you?"

"No, impossible, how could I possibly peep at deities!" Chen Yu said, then immediately turned around and walked down the mountain, but his attitude seemed just like he was hiding something.
