4. Shadow of the Mirage Dragon

Phoebe Stir-fry: "How many Witch Potions did you buy? I only dared to buy one. Any more and I'd have to take out a loan."

Simp: "Fortune favors the bold. I bought three bottles. I'm planning to drink them all tonight. Maybe one shot will do the trick."

Really Want to Beco Big Sister's Wife: "Potions are so expensive. The loan interest is crazy too. I don't dare buy many. Is there a way to transform without drinking potions?"

Phoebe Stir-fry: " 1. If there is, ping ."

Simp: " 1. If there is, ping ."

I Don't Want to Wear a Skirt: " 1. If there is, ping ."

……

It seed everyone was worrying about Witch Potions.

ng Lian lay on his bed, reading the group ssages, and his heart stirred.

Should he tell them about the Shadow of the Mirage Dragon?

But soon, he rejected that idea.

The Shadow of the Mirage Dragon could only be seen by those with talent in the Illusion Path. Even if he told them, they would not be able to use it. Besides, he did not know these people well. He did not even know their nas. To put it bluntly, whether they passed the entrance exam or not was none of his business.

He was an undercover agent sent by the Alliance. Helping these people successfully transform into witches would just create problems for the Alliance.

Better to stay silent and observe.

The group chat beca lively over this question. Many people copied and pasted the sa ssage. Even Gabriel's blue bird avatar appeared among them. ng Lian joined in and clicked " 1" to blend in.

Soon, the string of " 1"s was interrupted by a black and white chicken doll avatar.

Kunkun: "Interruption. I actually found out about another thod that can help us pass the exam."

Phoebe Stir-fry: "Really? What thod?"

Kunkun: "Have you been to the end of that street? I wandered there today and found a souvenir shop."

Kunkun: [Image]

ng Lian clicked on it. It was Tao Zhuo's shop.

Kunkun: "I was confused. All the other Senior Sisters were selling Witch Potions. Why would a souvenir shop suddenly appear?"

Kunkun: "I thought there must be sothing fishy, so I went in. I asked the owner if there was another way to help us transform. The owner said yes. The thod is..."

At this point, Kunkun suddenly stopped.

Really Want to Beco Big Sister's Wife: "What's the thod? Hurry up and tell us!"

Simp: "Yeah, tell us. Are you trying to trick us?"

I Don't Want to Wear a Skirt: "Stop asking. I went to that shop too. The owner made us look at her hand to see if there was anything there. But there was nothing in her hand. I thought it was my problem, so I asked my friends. They didn't see anything either."

Little Skirt Hehehe: "Correct, I can confirm that. I suspect the owner was just upset that we didn't buy anything and deliberately wasted our ti."

Of course you didn't see anything. You have no talent.

ng Lian read this and felt secretly pleased.

But what caught his attention was the photo Kunkun posted. In that photo, the sky was already dark, aning it was taken after ng Lian left. But Tao Zhuo was still testing new students with the Shadow of the Mirage Dragon. That ant the Shadow was not unique.

ng Lian recalled Tao Zhuo's words and understood.

No wonder she gave it to him so easily. This thing must be commonplace.

ng Lian pulled the Shadow of the Mirage Dragon from his pocket and examined it carefully.

The Shadow of the Mirage Dragon was a fist-sized glass sphere glowing with golden light. Its surface was carved with winding golden patterns. Inside, a small golden dragon occasionally flashed past.

This reminded ng Lian of ancient texts from the Alliance. "The Mirage is of the dragon kind. Its form resembles a great serpent with horns like a dragon. It has red mane, and scales below its waist stand erect. It swallows swallows. It can breathe forth vapors that form the shapes of towers and cities. Before rain, it appears. This is called a mirage, also known as the sea market. Mix its fat with wax to make candles. The fragrance spreads a hundred paces. Within the smoke, the shapes of pavilions appear."

The Mirage Dragon was extrely mysterious, with a capricious and haughty nature. Mirage Dragons were born illusionists. ng Lian pondered the na "Shadow of the Mirage Dragon" and felt sothing strange about it.

This thing was not actually made from a Mirage Dragon's shadow, was it?

A Mirage Dragon's shadow. It would be stranger if ordinary people could see it.

The group continued discussing.

Kunkun: "No, what the owner said might be true. She might actually be holding sothing. We just don't have the talent to see it."

Kunkun: "I asked other Senior Sisters. They told that the shop was opened by a third-year Senior Sister to find talented new students. We don't have what it takes, so of course we can't see it."

Kunkun: "According to the Senior Sisters, talented people are extrely rare. Last year, only one new student passed the test. It caused quite a stir."

Little Skirt Hehehe: "What talent? Are the other Senior Sisters tricking you too?"

Kunkun: "Probably not. I already took out a ten thousand credit loan. I basically sold myself to her. She has no reason to lie. As for what talent, that Senior Sister didn't know either. She went to check last year and couldn't see anything."

I Don't Want to Wear a Skirt: "I see... Wait, how much?! You said you borrowed how much? Ten thousand credits?! Are you crazy!"

Really Want to Beco Big Sister's Wife: "!"

Simp: "I thought my six thousand credit loan was already a lot. Didn't expect there'd be soone even more hardcore. Respect."

Kunkun: "Can't help it. For those of us without talent, this is the only way. Otherwise, if we don't pass the exam, we'll be sent to the slave army. You all know the witches are at war with the Galaxy Alliance. The front lines are intense. If we go to the slave army, we're just cannon fodder."

Kunkun: "Sigh. I really envy those with talent."

Phoebe Stir-fry: "I envy them too. Five percent daily interest. I can't even imagine. Sigh."

I Don't Want to Wear a Skirt: "Sigh."

Really Want to Beco Big Sister's Wife: "Sigh."

Simp: "Sigh."

Little Skirt Hehehe: "Sigh."

……

Seeing the group filled with lantations, ng Lian raised an eyebrow and added a " 1" of his own.

He stretched and tossed his phone aside. After scrolling the group chat for so long, his head felt a bit dizzy.

ng Lian slled himself. There was no particular odor, but after running around all day, he was sowhat tired.

He grabbed a towel and went into the bathroom for a shower.

When the bathroom door opened, steam drifted out. ng Lian felt refreshed.

He subconsciously opened the wardrobe and saw the black lace underwear inside. He froze.

He closed the door in despair, dried his hair, wrapped a towel around himself, and climbed onto the bed.

Forget it. Tonight he would sleep naked.

As for clothes...

ng Lian held up the Shadow of the Mirage Dragon. Under the lamplight, a golden glow reflected across his face.

He sighed, hugged the Shadow of the Mirage Dragon, turned off the light, and gradually fell asleep.

If Tao Zhuo had not lied to him, then tomorrow morning, the clothes in the wardrobe would fit him.

But why was he a little excited?

Umm... all the witches' fault!

……

Night fell. Two moons in the sky reflected each other's light. Pure moonlight shone through the window onto ng Lian's face, as if draping a light veil over it. ng Lian's long eyelashes trembled slightly. His brows furrowed, as if dreaming of sothing unpleasant.

Suddenly, ng Lian's eyes flew open. By now, her pupils had completely transford into golden vertical slits.
