Horntails are ferocious in nature, if they are bitten by it, they will surely die.Fortunately, Riddle had a talent for flying since he was a child, and his footwork was flexible, so he was not injured.The hornet flicked its spiked tail, and swept over with the sound of howling wind, interrupting a large towering tree surrounded by several people, and scattered countless birds and beasts.

Riddle embraced Daiyu with one hand and waved his magic wand with the other, constantly disturbing the Horntail's sight.While moving left and right, he passed the Horntail's sharp sting several times in a thrilling manner.The Horntail saw that simply attacking with its body could not kill this hateful human being, so it changed its mind, when Riddle flew past his eyes again, he suddenly breathed out flames, the scorching flames evaporated the surrounding mist, and a heat wave hit his face .Riddle couldn't dodge it, so he simply attacked the fire with fire, recalling the most basic spell "flaming flames" in "Compendium of Spells", and immediately cast it, letting the fire all over the sky rush towards the hornet.

The two flames collided with each other, making a loud crackling sound.Riddle was swept back by the waves for dozens of meters in the air.He thought to himself that with his current strength, it would be very difficult to completely kill the Horntail, and the original purpose was to rescue Daiyu, not to slay the dragon, so he had no intention of fighting, and took advantage of this power to fly away.

The Horntail roared behind, and after chasing for a while, it found that it couldn't catch up, so it went back angrily.

After flying for an unknown amount of time, Riddle saw a large lake in front of him.I thought I had arrived at Avalon Island, but at a glance, the big lake was as smooth as a landscape, and there were no islands on it.He flew a full circle over the lake again, trying to see if there were any tricks, but he still found nothing.

Just an ordinary lake?how come?Riddle thought, to know that some places that are difficult for others to find are often cursed by people, and maybe this lake is also.Riddle hugged Daiyu tightly in his arms, freed up one hand to wave the wand, and he opened his mouth and said, "Reveal quickly."

However, after about 1 minute, there was still no movement in the lake.Just when Riddle was a little disappointed, he heard a "crash", something drilled out of the water surface, and ripples spread out in all directions.Riddle looked up and saw something that was somewhat human and somewhat inhuman.

Her whole body sank under the water, only her head was exposed.A head of seaweed-like thick long hair spread out on the surface of the water, like a thick and huge net.The facial features look very delicate, but they are so moist that they really don't look like a person.If I had to describe this feeling, it would be that she didn't have a "human" air in her body, but a strange aura, which made people feel that she was not of the same kind at first glance.

Riddle's gaze suddenly turned cold, and his heart became more vigilant.

However, the female "person" suddenly laughed and said, "Are you afraid of me?"

Her delicate voice was slightly thin, like a normal woman's voice, but it still seemed very damp.

"No," Riddle said, "Who are you?"

The woman completely ignored his question and asked, "What happened to the person in your arms?"

Riddle remembered that Daiyu needed a comfortable place to rest, so he asked, "Is there anyone living near here?"

The woman smiled and said, "Just go west."

Riddle nodded, seeing that she was haunting the water in the barren mountains and wild mountains, she really didn't look like an ordinary person, and she didn't know what it had to do with the "Lake Banshee", and said, "Can you tell me where Merlin is?"

"Merlin..." The woman stretched out a webbed hand to support her face, and said with a coquettish smile, "I've never heard of it! I don't know it!"

Then with a sharp stab, it dived into the water, leaving only a silvery white trace in the water, and then disappeared.

Full of hesitation, Riddle followed the instructions of the woman in the lake and walked westward. A huge black shadow gradually appeared in front of his eyes. After a closer look, he realized that it was a city, and the bustling city surrounded the majestic castle.

Unexpectedly, in the barren mountains and wild mountains, there are few people, but there is such a densely populated city hidden in the depths.

It happened that Daiyu needed a place to rest, so Riddle planned to rest here for a few days, and wait until Daiyu woke up before continuing the journey.

Riddle stood behind a boulder outside the city, observing the scene inside the city.This is like a city-state thousands of years ago. A moat surrounds this not-so-large city-state. The city walls are thick, the towers are tall, and the guards are meticulously checking the passing pedestrians.

It seems that the management in this city-state is very tight. As foreigners, it may not be so easy for him and Daiyu to get in smoothly, Riddle thought to himself.Try it first, if it doesn't work, you can only confuse the guards... He looked at the wand in his sleeve.

He carried Daiyu to the gate of the city. He didn't expect that everyone he met along the way would greet him. The content was nothing more than "Your Majesty", "Good day, Your Majesty", "What's the matter with the queen", which made Riddle feel a little confused. .

"Excuse me, are you talking to me?" He hesitated slightly.

"Of course, my lord," said the fat peasant woman, "I feel very honored."

Riddle frowned, only nodded slightly to the peasant woman, and left without saying a word.

At the gate of the city, before Riddle had time to come up with the set of arguments he had prepared before, the guards guarding the city put the gun aside, stood upright and saluted: "Your Majesty!"

Another man who looked like a knight said: "My lord, is the queen injured? Has she been attacked by a dragon?"

There must be something weird here... Riddle thought, why did everyone who saw him recognize him as the monarch here?It is impossible to say that the two of them look like the king and queen here. Dai is an oriental. How could the European continent let an oriental be the queen in the Middle Ages?

But something strange happened, so don't act rashly for the time being, lest there be any accidents.What's more, now that he is a king, he can still use it to do some things.Thinking of this, Riddle responded indifferently to the guards' salutes and greetings, and ordered: "The queen is under attack, please quickly prepare the carriages and horses so that we can return to the palace."

The knight bowed and said, "Yes."

After a while, a carriage with two white horses was ready, and Riddle carried Daiyu into the carriage, and the groom who drove the carriage rushed to the palace without daring to neglect.The servants in the royal palace took them for granted as king and queen and served them very attentively.Seeing this, Riddle strengthened his conjecture, but he kept it in his heart and did not mention it for the time being. Instead, he ordered the servants to invite the imperial physician to check on Daiyu's health.

Half a day later, Daiyu woke up quietly, and what she saw was a gorgeous bed curtain, and what she saw through the bed curtain was a room with a European classical architectural style.She struggled to prop up her body and sat up, and what she felt under her hands was actually a soft and comfortable big bed, not the grass in the forest.

what's the situation?Are they back at Hogwarts?But this place is totally different from Hogwarts, what about Riddle?

Daiyu's eyes were searching for Riddle in the room, when she saw a maid in a simple dress and long hair holding a bouquet of flowers, she said in surprise, "Queen, are you awake?" Then she turned and ran out , and shouted in his mouth: "The queen is awake, the queen is awake!"

Daiyu:? ? ?

Daiyu wondered, she was really confused about everything in front of her, and when she was guessing secretly, Riddle came over.He was dressed in a splendid king's costume, with a crown on his head, a sword in his hand, and a thick scarlet cloak.This appearance is really different from his usual simple, low-key and gloomy style.

"I've been waiting for you for so long, and you finally woke up," Riddle saw her smiling, and then handed her a bouquet of bright red roses dripping with dew in the hand of the maid, "My queen."

Daiyu looked at the delicate rose in her hand, and was completely astonished now.

"What exactly is going on?"

The maid smiled and said, "The queen may have just woken up, and she is not very sober yet."

Riddle waved her away, and only Daiyu and him were left in the room. At this time, his expression became serious, and Daiyu knew that he was serious.

Riddle said, "Day, how is your body feeling now?"

"It's the same as before, nothing special, it's still an old problem," Daiyu said, and asked again, "Now, can you tell me what's going on?"

"Dai, this may be a trap set by Merlin," Riddle said seriously, "Maybe all of this is just a dream, or some other illusory scene."

Daiyu thought for a moment, "You mean, we've already arrived at Avalon Island, but we didn't know it?"

Riddle pondered: "Not necessarily, but what is certain is that Merlin should already know about our trip."

Daiyu looked around again, and sighed: "If it is a dream, the details of this dream are too realistic. But I don't know what kind of intentions he has set us into such identities."

Riddle said: "No matter what, in the days to come, everything we do may be included in his scope of investigation."

Daiyu nodded and said, "En." She felt that she had rested enough and was about to get out of bed. Seeing this, the maid who had been watching her from a distance hurried over to help her dress up.

The maid first dressed her in a gorgeous queen's robe and white lace gloves.Then she sat in front of the dressing mirror to do her makeup, and the maid combed Daiyu's jet-black hair and sighed: "The queen's hair is really different, it's as black as obsidian, and as smooth as black silk, it doesn't look like ours is curly. "

Daiyu was speechless for a while, thinking that you and I are fundamentally two different races, so they are naturally different.But I couldn't help sighing again in my heart that this illusion could be so realistic that even a little maid's thoughts could be simulated.

The maid tied up her long hair, put on an exquisite crown for her, and wanted to put on her a heavy jewelry adorned with gorgeous gemstones, but Daiyu hurriedly refused.

Walking outside, Riddle looked her up and down, and said with a smile, "It's beautiful."

Daiyu blushed, showing a hint of embarrassment, as if she was a little embarrassed, seeing him reading with a book in his hand, she walked up to him and said, "What are you reading?"

Riddle spread out the documents in his hand on the table, and said: "The head of the Knights, Daniel, reported that all the wizards in the city have been arrested and thrown into prison, asking when they will be sentenced to death."

Daiyu was surprised: "Why do you want to execute the wizards? And all the wizards?"

Riddle looked at the document with deep eyes, and said: "It is said that the wizards here are all evil, they don't do anything productive, they only deceive people, and use magic to harm people. They are the sinners of Camelot."

Camelot is the name of the city-state.

Daiyu nodded after hearing this, and did not comment, but her lips were pursed into a straight line.After a long while, he said: "It seems that our first test has come."
