Chapter 23: The Remnant Soul of the Frost Giant Dragon
When Lin Wu heard Wu Bo's words, he listened carefully with his ears perked up, and it was clear that there must be some ulterior motive behind this.
"Alice's ice elemental spirit was formed from foreign objects." Wu Bo's words made Lin Wu's eyes widen.
"What is it that can make a person become an elemental spirit of such great power?" Lin Wu asked.
Elemental spirits are all formed by elemental bodies changing on their own, and this process cannot be invaded by external objects at all. Otherwise, it will be a disaster for the elemental body.
"Ah, you must have seen it, that ice dragon." Wu Bo sighed and said: "The culprit who caused all this is the remnant soul of a 9th-level magic beast, the Frost Giant Dragon."
"9th level demon beast!!" Lin Wu stood up in shock, a 9th level demon beast was incredibly powerful, almost all of them were legendary main characters, and the Frost Giant Dragon was one of the strongest among them. Dragons were always a symbol of power wherever they were.
"That's right, when Mrs. was pregnant with Alice, due to an accident, she picked up a broken 7th-level magic equipment, and in that magic equipment, a wisp of the residual soul of the Frost Giant Dragon was sealed. Under the erosion of that wisp of residual soul, Mrs. passed away when giving birth to Miss Alice, but that wisp of residual soul invaded Alice's body, resulting in the current situation." Wu Bo narrated slowly.
"Lord Hawthorn, he invited many people and spent a vast amount of family wealth to invite a strong practitioner who temporarily sealed that strand of residual soul. However, the Frost Dragon's power is too great, and even a strand of residual soul cannot be completely sealed, so every time Alice's emotions fluctuate violently, she will release that strand of residual soul, and you've seen the consequences." Duke Wu sighed heavily.
"So you're saying that's why Alice has been stuck as a novice magician and can't advance?" Lin Wu asked.
"That's right, the remnant of the Ice Frost Dragon's soul has been constantly absorbing Alice's magic, and every time the seal is lifted, the remnant will control Alice's body and wildly consume her magic and even her life. If you hadn't rescued Alice in time this time, she might not have escaped this disaster." Wu Bo said with a lingering fear.
"Is there any way to solve it?" Lin Wu asked after a moment of silence.
"Unless there is a strong person who can surpass the Frost Dragon and completely seal that remnant soul, otherwise..." Wu Bo said, shaking his head, "A strong person who can surpass the Frost Dragon, that's a Sword Saint-level super strong person. It's not just that it's hard to get those ancient strong people to help, even seeing them is as difficult as ascending to heaven."
Wu Bo said this and stood up, facing Lin Wu: "Alright, you've also had a hard day today, go get some rest."
Farewell to Wu Bo, Lin Wu did not return to Alice's courtyard. Lin Wu's residence was actually next to Alice's small courtyard. Coming to the entrance of Alice's courtyard, Lin Wu hesitated for a moment and then walked in.
There was no one else in the courtyard, and it was clear that Alice's situation was an important secret for the entire Rose family.
Arriving at Alice's bedside, looking at the pale-faced Alice, Lin Wu's hands suddenly had two items, a red and blue one. These were the life and magic potions that Lin Wu brought from the game. "Since Uncle Wu said that removing the seal would consume her magic and life force, I wonder if using this to supplement it will work?" Lin Wu thought to himself.
Gently, he poured two bottles of medicine down Alice's throat. Before long, Alice's face had improved a lot. Seeing the good effect of the medicine, Lin Wu gritted his teeth and took out the last two doses. After pouring them down, Alice's original pallor was gone.
Looking at that warm and smooth face, Lin Wu stretched out his hand and gently pinched it, "Hmmm, so soft." Lin Wu thought to himself.
However, the next moment Lin Wu felt a tight scalp, looking at Alice who was staring at him with wide eyes, Lin Wu hesitantly withdrew his hand, and that feeling was like being caught in the act of doing something wrong.
"Hehe, Alice you're awake." Lin Wu said awkwardly.
"Hum! You didn't leave after all, what are you doing back here?" Alice turned her head and shouted with the quilt covering her head: "You get out, I don't want to see you, big cheat!"
When Lin Wu heard Alice's words, he furrowed his brow. This little girl was too difficult to serve. Just as Lin Wu was about to leave, when he heard Alice's last words "big liar", Lin Wu let out a long sigh. This matter was still his own fault. If he hadn't mistaken Alice for Elena, he wouldn't have become the flying guard of this little girl either, and none of this would have happened.
Looking at the noisy and twisted Alice, Lin Wu suddenly found a colorful and rich sweet pancake in his hand.
"Alice~~" Lin Wu brought a cookie to Alice's bedside, lifted up the corner of her quilt and kept shaking it back and forth.
It seemed that Alice had smelled the sweet aroma emitted by the sweet pastry, and she lifted her quilt to look at Lin Wu's hand holding the sweet pastry. The colorful colors combined with the sweet taste made Lin Wu believe that this sweet pastry was absolutely lethal to a loli like Alice.
As expected, Alice snatched the pastry from Lin Wu's hand without saying a word, took a light bite, and her small face instantly revealed a happy smile.
Lin Wu let out a long sigh of relief, this pastry was not an ordinary item but a rare reward from the game's activities, not only did it taste delicious, but it also restored life force.
Alice had just eaten half of it, and her face was already flushed with a healthy red glow. Looking at Alice's face, which was now flushed with a smile, Lin Wu thought that this little girl would also be a stunning beauty in the future. Although she didn't have Elena's gentle and kind temperament, she had an innocent and pure quality that Elena lacked.
"Hmm, this time I'll forgive you because of this sweet pastry, but from now on, you have to give me one of these every day." Alice said while nibbling at the pastry, speaking to Lin Wu.
"It's gone, this pancake is just one piece." Lin Wu hastily refused, although he wouldn't really have only one piece, but that number was also very limited, eating one less one.
"Hum, I don't care, you must give me a sweet bun." Alice heard that she didn't have any and immediately became disobedient. She hastily wrapped the remaining half of the sweet bun in her handkerchief.
Seeing this scene, Lin Wu couldn't help but touch the handkerchief in his pocket. "Alright, if you behave from now on, I'll give you sweet pastries." Lin Wu said helplessly.
"Really?" Alice asked delightedly.
"Hmm." Lin Wu nodded and immediately made a victory gesture in his heart, "Success!!"
Just as Lin Wu was dealing with Alice, the little girl, Irina came to Alice's room with several maids and saw Alice jumping around, her face full of surprise.
Irina, however, made a clear recovery. After Alice released the Frost Dragon's soul, her body's energy and magic would be drained, taking at least ten days to half a month to recover, but this time she recovered so quickly, and with that rosy complexion, she looked better than ever before.
"Big sister (sister)." Lin Wu and Alice said in unison as they saw Irina come in.
"Alice, you're awake. Is there anything wrong with your body?" Elena nodded to Lin Wu and immediately grabbed Alice to examine her up and down.
"It's all right now, sister; I'm quite well again." Alice exclaimed, embracing Elinor tenderly.
Suddenly Alice took out the handkerchief wrapped with half a cookie and said to Irina: "Sister, I'll give you something good."
