A Colossal Silhouette That Reached the Heavens

"Let's go!"

"Where?"

"To the next coordinate and see what's going on!"

After taking another look at the notes in her notebook, Lan Qingyou started drawing and scribbling again, making a new map.

Then she immediately called over Alisa, who had been examining it.

The easiest way to prove whether something was right was to go and check.

If black water was gushing out at the next coordinate too, things would get interesting.

So, three days later, just before the Mana Turbulence arrived, the two reached the next coordinate.

They hadn't even gotten close when they saw a black column of water shooting hundreds of meters into the sky.

Not far away lay a vast black-water swamp that had already flooded the area.

There was no need to say it.

The sudden surge of black water must have blasted the Wood Nail sealing it away.

After all, things had already reached an uncontrollable point. Something like this was bound to happen sooner or later.

If nothing unexpected happened, the Wood Nails in the other regions were probably in the same state.

"Ah... It seems my guess was right."

Lan Qingyou sighed as she climbed higher to avoid getting splashed by the black water.

"Your guess? What guess?"

Alisa frowned.

During the three days of travel, Lan Qingyou hadn't said a word about making any guesses.

Naturally, that made Alisa curious.

"See for yourself. Doesn't this pattern look familiar?"

Lan Qingyou didn't answer directly. Instead, she opened her notebook and stopped at a particular page.

Alisa took the notebook and looked closely.

Good grief!

The memory came rushing back!

The notebook showed none other than the basic pattern from Basic Semiotics: three circles connected by two lines, representing the unity of life, spirit, and body. It was called Fire Wine.
