Sorcerer: I want to be an Academic Prodigy

Chapter 784: Chapter 700: Methods and Changes

The toxicity of the moon fluid in Moon Lake is unusually fierce, and neither the throne nor the supreme can avoid its damage. If one remains inside for too long, it will inevitably harm the core. Unfortunately, the lake water soon refilled Crescent Lake, and the Dark Night Mother Goddess still hasn’t returned.

“Is it possible that Lilabet encountered other matters and had to temporarily leave?”

“Ah! Can’t make contact, should we turn back and provide support?”

“Let’s wait a while longer. Lilabet is not a reckless person; she understands the dangers of the moon fluid better than we do.”

Everyone looked worriedly at the mouth of Crescent Lake, where a thin film had automatically formed, preventing the moon fluid from crossing.

Time passed minute by minute, and after about half an hour, a figure finally flashed out.

“She’s back, she’s back.”

“Lilabet.”

The figure hurriedly landed on the deck. It was none other than the Dark Night Mother Goddess Lilabet, looking quite disheveled. The Sea Mother and others quickly gathered around her, asking for an explanation.

It turned out that the Dark Night Mother Goddess relied on her strength to advance through the intricate paths and reached the depths of Moon Lake.

Unexpectedly, the lake water rose quickly, and the speed of the rise varied in each passageway. On her way back, the corridor ahead was already flooded by the lake waters, forcing her to traverse through water, significantly delaying the return process.

Slow in one step, slow in every step.

As a result, the Dark Night Mother Goddess only managed to return now.

“Did you reach the bottom?”

“No, I don’t know how deep it is below.”

“How do you feel now?”

“I’m fine; a few days of rest will suffice.”

“Then go and adjust yourself, let’s discuss the rest later. It may take several months for Crescent Lake to reopen, so we must plan carefully.”

Though the Dark Night Mother Goddess looked disheveled, she wasn’t seriously troubled. Her strength was undeniable.

After watching her return inside to rest, the others fell into silence. Even a supreme failed to succeed and was trapped inside for some time, so the difficulties faced by those less powerful were imaginable.

The deeper one explores, the greater the danger.

When the lake rises, those without the strength of the Dark Night Mother Goddess might be trapped inside directly. Without deep exploration of Moon Lake, finding traces of the Fang Yu Map would be hard.

It’s truly a deadlock.

“Let’s hope the lake water doesn’t rise so quickly next time.”

“Indeed, as long as we have enough time, we’ll eventually find the target.”

Subsequently, a brief discussion ensued among them, but no useful plans emerged.

Ivan did not express his opinion; despite agreeing to come and help, it wasn’t necessary to risk life and limb for others, especially when he sensed they were hiding something from him.

…

Moon Lake is located near the moon, bathed in abundant moonlight while sunlight cannot penetrate.

There’s no division between day and night, nor any changes in illumination here.

The ship Earth, while not large compared to other Star River warships, was substantial in exterior size, and its internal space was even more expansive.

Ivan had his own separate dwelling, complete with a courtyard, garden, pavilion, and especially a sorcerer tower prepared for him.

“Sorcerer Ivan, let’s have a private talk.”

Half a month later on a particular day, the Dark Night Mother Goddess personally came to visit.

She had clearly recovered.

“No problem, why not take a walk in the garden?” Ivan was not surprised, as he was regarded by the Dark Night Mother Goddess as pivotal in locating the Fang Yu Map.

“Please.” The Dark Night Mother Goddess nodded slightly.

The small garden situated beside the sorcerer tower was filled with all kinds of flowers, varied in height and size; the splendor was evident. Both noticed that the flowers here had developed silver markings.

There was no doubt, the flowers in the garden had contracted lunar disease.

Neither paid attention to it.

“Lord Lilabet, are there detailed plans for the next exploration?” Ivan took the initiative to break the silence.

“Next time, will you accompany me?” asked the Dark Night Mother Goddess.

“Will it be like your last exploration?”

“Indeed, we must venture as deeply as possible.”

“How will safety be ensured?”

“I’ll protect you with all my might. As long as I don’t fall, your safety will be assured. I guarantee this on behalf of the Earth Heart Kin.”

“Alright, I agree.”

Ivan was concerned about the sudden rise of lake water and the ensuing safety. With his throne’s strength insufficient within the Bottomless Moon Cave, since the Dark Night Mother Goddess made such a vow, he refrained from further hesitation, trusting her words as credible.

The Dark Night Mother Goddess seemed to have more to say but remained silent, and Ivan did not rush her; after all, it was the Earth Heart Kin that was pressing.

“Sorcerer Ivan, you are a learned man, surely you must have some good methods?”

“You flatter me; I cannot compare to your vast insights. If you insist on other methods, precognition is an option, but that Fang Yu Map is a significant treasure, not easily foreseen. Surely you have attempted such methods numerous times, haven’t you?”

Faced with the other party lowering themselves to seek advice, Ivan thought about his debt to the Earth Heart Kin and decided not to hide his ability to use precognitive methods.

In Danaila, though precognition is rare, it is not unique.

“Be that as it may, you are the one chosen by the Mother,” said the Dark Night Mother Goddess.

“Then try it inside Moon Lake later; proximity might bring discoveries. Best to bring Jenny, using Jenny’s identity to replace mine for precognition. This is the most practical method I can think of.”
