Alice narrowed her eyes subconsciously.

After quickly adapting to the bright light, he changed his flight direction, gave up chasing the white butterfly that turned into a brilliant sky, and flew towards the magic sword castle rising from the water on the horizon.

The clue to breaking through the dream might not be the white butterfly, but maybe it has something to do with the huge castle rising from the water.

After flying forward for nearly twenty minutes, Alice finally arrived in front of the castle that towered high into the clouds.

The strange thing is that this castle is so majestic and spectacular, but there is no gate. Alice walked around the castle several times, but she couldn't find an entrance.

Do you want to break in through the window?

Alice blinked, tilted her head slightly, put a hand on her chin, and fell into thought.

This doesn't feel good. It's not very polite to break the window.

Alice fell from the air and stood on a flat ground in front of the castle. The hard dark walls of the castle were carved with many strange lines. They did not look like ordinary magic lines, and Alice did not recognize any of them.

But for some reason, she seemed to feel faintly attracted to these lines deep in her heart.

When Alice reacted, her hands had already been pressed on those strange lines, and then, a huge suction force came from the wall of the castle!

Alice was like a little ant being sucked into a giant whirlpool, involuntarily hitting the hard and cold wall.

The strange lines carved on the wall instantly distorted, the cold dark stone wall suddenly turned into nothingness, and Alice fell into the castle inexplicably.

The light inside the castle is darker than outside. The soft magic lights look like ancient torches made of gold. They float in the air, with bright white-gold flames burning above the torches, and the ground is covered with thick, soft silver-black materials.

high-end carpets.

Round pillars support the hall. The hall is grand and wide. There is a groove in the middle of each pillar. Various rare treasures are placed in the groove, including ancient and mysterious magic parchment scrolls.

There is a crystal ball that shines with divine light, a magic hat that looks very old, and a magic weapon that is green and shaped like dragon teeth...

At a glance, the number is enough to dazzle people.

What on earth is this place? Alice moved her eyes away from these dazzling treasures and became more and more curious about the origin and story of this majestic palace.

Although the treasures placed in these pillars were magical and very attractive, Alice did not choose to reach out and touch them easily.

From meeting the Professor Stone who was supposed to be dead in the water to being attracted and involuntarily touching strange lines outside the castle, all these phenomena are weird.

If she accidentally pops up again, Alice will have to kill monsters in her dream to find a way out.

After encountering strange things, she became wary in her heart and only regarded these rare treasures as illusions transformed by a certain life.

So I didn’t stay in place too much, but tightened my nerves and walked slowly forward, watching the six directions and listening in all directions. If something strange happened, or something suddenly attacked me, it would be easier to make a quick and timely response.

reaction.

As she shuttled among the dazzling array of rare treasures, the torch floating in the air above her head was quietly burning with white-gold flames. The surroundings were very quiet, and Alice seemed to be the only one in the huge palace.

However, this is only based on hearing. Alice's mental power is very sensitive. Although the life in the dark does not make any sound, she can feel the other party's existence with her perception.

There is a vague line of sight, spying on the thin figure of the blond little witch in a corner of the hall...

Alice tried hard to sense, trying to determine the specific direction of the spying person. However, she found that with her own mental power, she was unable to detect the specific location of the mysterious life, or even the general direction.

Perhaps, the creature lurking in the dark noticed that Alice was using her mental power to perceive, and deliberately concealed its aura so that Alice could not find its hiding place.

Otherwise, the opponent's strength is much higher than his own, so he can easily resolve Alice's secret mental detection, thereby blurring her judgment.

Alice looked forward, and at the end of the hall was a platinum throne.

The throne is carved with various rare and exotic animals, which looks gorgeous and complicated. Although the throne is empty, it exudes the aura of a king, noble and majestic.

Before she reached the throne, Alice stopped and faced the throne, her crystal amber eyes reflecting the shadow of the platinum throne:

"I didn't expect that the owner of this castle would like to turn himself into a throne to tease a little witch. Is this your prank?"

Alice's bright and refreshing voice echoed in the hall.

The palace of the castle is brilliantly lit.

Among the dazzling array of rare treasures, a little witch with long golden hair was wearing a black magic robe. Her body was as straight as a sword, looking directly at the empty platinum throne in the hall. There was no smile between her eyebrows, but she was very serious.

There was silence in the huge hall, no one responded to Alice's question, and the empty throne suddenly disappeared.

Alice remained unmoved, standing quietly on the soft and thick silver-black carpet, just silently waiting for the castle master's response.

His eyes did not leave the place where the throne disappeared, as if he wanted to see something through the air, his bright and dazzling eyes looked firm.

"...how did you find me?"

Seeing that Alice was making no move, the owner of the castle seemed to lose his temper and finally asked. In addition to a hint of curiosity, there was also a hint of displeasure in his tone.

Judging from the timbre, the owner of this voice seems to be very young. It is not the majestic and powerful voice of an emperor as Alice imagined, but the voice of a child about three or four years old, which sounds milky.

This surprised Alice.

The owner of such a castle is actually a child who sounds only three or four years old. It is incredible no matter how you think about it. Even if the jewels and treasures around him are all made of illusion, he has such an ability to confuse Alice at the same time.

Judging mentally, this person is by no means ordinary.

"Did you bring me to this world?"

Alice's eyes fell on the air where the throne once existed, as if there was an invisible person standing there in the air. The little blond witch raised her beautiful eyebrows, her amber eyes full of seriousness.

"So what if it is, so what if it's not? You haven't answered my question yet, how on earth did you find me here?"

The owner of the voice seemed to be impatient. Although he did not show up, Alice could imagine that the other person had an impatient expression on his face at this time.

"It's very simple." The little blond witch said in a relaxed tone, raised her right hand in the direction of the throne, and stretched out a finger, "If this castle and the dark space outside are all illusions created by you, then it must be

There will be a solution."

"When I first entered the castle, I saw a lot of treasures and magic books. They all seemed very attractive and wanted me to touch them."

Having said this, Alice paused, smiled, and blinked her eyes brightly.

"But when I was outside before, the white butterfly that attracted me suddenly turned into a bright sky. But as far as I know, even the butterflies in the magical world, no one has the ability to replace the night and make the whole world bright."

"So, is the butterfly that can do this an illusion itself? I have such a guess."

"If the white butterfly itself is a manifestation of illusion, full of infinite possibilities, then are these rare treasures that attract me around me also an illusion?"

"Since the white butterfly turned into a brilliant sky, your castle appeared on the water. Then its function is to make me notice the existence of the castle."

"After I discovered the castle, of course I would think about whether this was the key to breaking through this world, and whether there would be a way out from here."

"As the owner of the castle, no, to be precise, you are the owner of this world. Of course you have expected that I would have such thoughts. Or maybe you just deliberately lured me here, so you created the illusion.

this world.”

"The castle has no entrance, but I was attracted by the lines on the stone walls of the castle, and entered the hall according to your plan. And the rare treasures that tempted me around, why couldn't they be trying to get me into a trap?

Where’s the trap?”

"Among so many magical treasures, apart from the carpet under my feet and the stone pillars standing around me, the only thing that is different from all existences is the platinum throne in the palace."

"It stands to reason that if it were just because of this, I would be able to determine your existence, maybe the possibility is slim. But in order to show the aura and majesty of the throne, you enhanced the aura of the throne through magic or other means, making me feel

To the point of oppression.”

Alice retracted the outstretched finger and raised the corners of her mouth slightly.

"And this is the key to the clue. The throne cannot have such a strong aura and you will be self-defeating. This is one of them."

"Secondly, although you know that I have keen perception and carefully hide my breath, you have forgotten one thing. In addition to perception, I also have eyesight, and my sense of smell is also very sensitive."

"I used my nose to smell the subtle fluctuations in the air when you used your ability. That white butterfly also has the same smell and fluctuations as you."

"So, combining the above two points, I came to my own conclusion."

Alice's bright amber eyes shone with confidence, and she expressed her judgment in a calm and unhurried tone.

"Your nose is more sensitive than a dog. Is it natural? It's too foul!"

After listening to Alice's explanation, the owner of the castle seemed even more agitated.

Alice could imagine the other person standing on the high platform with the throne, scratching his head and walking around with an unhappy face.

"Compared to being able to hide directly in the air and spy on others quietly, my sense of smell is just a small and insignificant ability."

Alice snapped her fingers and smiled with a bright smile. But if you look closely, you will find that those amber eyes did not relax their vigilance for a moment.

"Don't think I didn't hear it. You little witch is sarcastically saying that I don't dare to show my true face to others. However, whether I want to show my true face depends on my own mood. No matter how you mock me, it won't work."

The voice suddenly approached and seemed to be speaking closely to Alice's left ear. How could the little blond witch give it a chance to run away? She was waiting for the moment when the other party couldn't hold back and wanted to get closer to her to reveal her flaws.

The black fingerless glove on Alice's left hand emits blue light, the blue lion magic pattern roars silently, and the control amplification is activated.

This time, Alice focused all the amplification effect on the attack speed. Her hand pierced the air and quickly brought up a string of afterimages. Then she hooked to the left, curled up her left hand, and grabbed the air.

Hidden entities. If captured with the naked eye, only a black afterimage can be captured.

This happened too suddenly. Alice had been prepared for it, but the owner of the castle never expected that a little girl who broke into his territory would have the courage to attack him directly.

Alice successfully grabbed the invisible man in the void. It seemed that because her hand touched the other person, the invisibility effect was forced to cancel. In this way, the other person's true body was exposed to Alice's sharp eyes without any obstruction.

Under the gaze.

It was indeed a boy, but when his true identity was revealed, it once again exceeded Alice's expectations.

The guy he grabbed by the collar was not a three or four year old boy, but a boy who looked about the same age as himself.
