"What exactly is that thing hidden under the library?"
"It's not hidden. It's sealed," Alyss said. Alyss said, "That thing has been sealed down there for two hundred years. No one knows what it is."
Chen Zhao snorted. This thing really had a long history.
How many years was New York?
How many years was America?
This thing had been sealed for 200 years.
Fali also listened on the side.
She was quite interested in these things.
But she also knew that Chen Zhao might go on another adventure.
It seemed to be Chen Zhao's mission to deal with an ancient existence.
Fali was also worried about Chen Zhao's safety.
Of course, Chen Zhao wouldn't admit that it was a mission.
It was just trouble coming to him.
What could he do now?
Push Alyss into the rain? Then close the door?
If he really did that, Fali would probably despise him to death.
There was nothing to be afraid of in a fight.
In the past half a year, he'd encountered all kinds of monsters.
A 200-year-old monster wasn't that hard to deal with.
However, the powerful Witch Society had been burned to ashes.
It had actually been burnt to a crisp just like that.
There were so many witches, but none of them knew elemental magic?
There were so many witches, but none of them knew elemental magic?
Even a water spell couldn't be that bad, right?
"A few years ago, the seal in the library started to become unstable," Alyss said. "Every once in a while, witches would be bewitched by the power leaked from that thing. Anyone who comes into contact with that thing will become a fallen witch without exception."
"Then how do I tell if a witch has been bewitched? For example, you. How do I know if you've been bewitched and came here to trick me? "
"I can't prove it," Alyss answered.
"Then where's the magic book you mentioned? Let me see. "
Alyss looked at Chen Zhao. After a moment of hesitation, she untied her hair.
"Can I have a pair of scissors?"
"For what?"
"Cut my hair."
"Cut your hair? Here? Are you that free? "
Fali gave Alyss a pair of scissors. Alyss put her hair in front of her and the scissors cut it.
The cut hair was piled together. Then Alyss snapped her fingers and the hair burst into flames.
Amidst the ashes of the flames, a magic book was slowly revealed.
"What kind of spell is this?"
"You Chinese have a saying, 'The body, hair, and skin are given by your parents.' My teacher hid the magic book in my blood," Alyss said.
Chen Zhao picked up the book from the fire and flipped through it.
Chen Zhao saw the imprisonment spell that Catherine had used on him. It was Cage of Light.
There were also a lot of sealing spells of all kinds.
Some were complicated, and some were simple.
Some of the seals were also effective on Chen Zhao.
This made Chen Zhao worry. He wasn't invincible yet.
Therefore, he needed to keep a low profile in the future.
If a person deliberately wanted to deal with him, it was not completely impossible.
"Which sealing spell is used to seal that thing?"
"This." Alyss pointed at a pattern. "The Star Soul Seal."
He could understand most of the seals.
However, this seal was a little complicated. It should be guided by the position of the stars in the sky.
"This spell is activated according to the position of the Big Dipper. It requires seven people with magic power to activate it."
"Seven people? Then find someone from the Sorcerer Society. "
"The Sorcerer Society … They've all been wiped out."
“what?”
"Last night, Charlotte and Cindy attacked the Sorcerer Society. They were all wiped out."
"Is the Sorcerer Society that weak? Charlotte and Cindy wiped out the entire Sorcerer Union with just the two of them? "
"The Sorcerer Society isn't strong to begin with. Charlotte and Cindy's power has become really terrifying. They're almost as powerful as Grand Wizards."
"What do they want to do? What does that thing want to do? "
"I don't know."
"Whatever, I don't care about that now. I think that thing will come out after the rain stops. Rain is the most annoying thing."
"…"
Fali helped Alyss change her clothes. Although Alyss had been frightened, staying with Chen Zhao could at least make her feel at ease.
Chen Zhao was the only person she knew who could protect her.
The rain in New York City was getting heavier. Puddles had already appeared in some places.
The news on TV started broadcasting some places that were affected.
Chen Zhao realized that the water level along the coastline had risen by quite a bit.
The villas were still a few meters above the water level.
However, if the water level continued to rise, the seawater might pour in.
"Chen, will the seawater pour in?"
"No. Even at this rate, it'll take half a day for the water level to reach the villas."
Then … then the rain seemed to get heavier.
In the afternoon, the water level finally reached the villas' height.
At the moment, all of New York was affected. There was water everywhere.
They could only go up to the second floor.
"That's why I hate going down." Chen Zhao and Fali nestled on the balcony, watching the pouring rain outside.
"Chen, I feel like this rain isn't normal. Do you think it's some kind of magic?"
Fali wasn't familiar with supernatural powers. It was just an instinctive thought.
"I don't know. I hope not." Chen Zhao looked at the downpour. "I hate going out when it's raining. I hope that sealed thing will behave."
"Do you hate rain that much?"
"Yes, very much," Chen Zhao said.
"Do you have any bad memories that happened on rainy days?"
"Fali, don't read too many novels. I don't have such a complicated past. I just hate it."
Fali leaned against Chen Zhao's shoulder. Even though the seawater had poured in and flooded the first floor, she still felt safe.
It was as if she wouldn't panic as long as this man was beside her.
What Chen Zhao could accept was that the electricity was still there.
The first floor was flooded, but the electricity was still running.
Were all the managers of high-class neighborhoods so careless?
If a resident was electrocuted at this time, what would they think?
According to American law, if someone got electrocuted in such a situation, the resident would be sued.
Almost all the channels on the TV were broadcasting this sudden rainstorm. Without any warning, this heavy rain just fell, and no one could say when this heavy rain would end.
Many people were trapped by the storm, waiting for help.
The water level in some streets had even reached the second floor.
The originally well-developed sewer system was probably already blocked and paralyzed by now.
Chen Zhao and Fali lived in a relatively good place. After all, it was a coastal neighborhood. The water level had just reached the first floor.
