I'm trapped in a block

Chapter 161 Wishing Fountain

"Can the spring water satisfy a child's wish?"

Mo Ling looked at the elf in shock.

It seems to be able to create relics based on children's wishes and then distribute them to children.

No wonder so many parents were waiting outside with their children.

And they all seemed to want the children to obtain the relics according to their wishes.

But the little boy finally chose to create the relic according to his heart's desire.

I guess I'll get another beating after I get out.

In the spring, the golden elf stroked the red mark on the little boy and looked at him distressedly. The golden light flashed in his hand. After a burst of water mist drifted by, the red mark disappeared instantly.

The elf was not in a hurry, but kept spinning around the little boy, watching him make various candies with the toy pistol in his hand.

It wasn't until the little boy had finished playing that the elf reminded him at the right time:

"I'm going to send you out. The other children are still waiting."

When he heard that he was about to go out, the little boy probably thought of his mother and showed a scared expression, but he still nodded and responded obediently: "Okay."

The reverberating water waves rolled up again, lifted the little boy up, and gently placed him outside the fountain. There was not a trace of water stains on his clothes.

The little boy held a toy pistol, looked around, and found his mother in the distance.

The woman didn't seem to care about the boy, but was staring straight at the toy pistol in his hand, her face clouded, and her eyes glaring with anger.

"Have you forgotten what I told you?"

As soon as the little boy came to the woman's side, his ears were pinched. She didn't even pay attention to the soldiers around her at this time, and started angrily scolding the little boy.

Then a few more slaps came to the little boy, and he started crying while doing so.

"Do you know you only have this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity? Do you want such a rubbish relic? In the future, when you encounter danger in the abyss, will you shoot people with candy?"

"Do you know how your father died? He just couldn't deal with the danger because the relics were so bad."

"The relic is the hunter's life! Mom has warned you so many times, why don't you obey?"

The woman didn't know whether she was tired from crying or from beating. She collapsed and sat on the ground, still mumbling.

The little boy did not cry at this time, but tugged at the corner of the woman's clothes, wiped the tears from her face, and explained weakly:

"Because when dad and mom were arguing before, mom said she wanted to eat candy."

"Later, my father secretly told me that there were no candies in Oasis City and he would go back to Dawn City to buy some when he was going on a mission."

"But he never came back."

"So I thought, if I had endless candy, Dad would come back."

"..."

The little boy spoke softer and lowered his head, as if he had done something wrong.

The woman's eyes widened, her crying suddenly stopped, and she hugged the little boy tightly and cried loudly.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, mom was wrong..."

The cries were mixed in with the lively voices, making no waves.

This is just an ordinary couple among thousands of parents and children. No one cares about them...

Mo Ling watched this episode quietly and then looked into the fountain.

The number has reached dozens. After seeing the beautiful scene in the golden spring water, most of the children chose to follow their hearts.

The elves are also happy to make various toy-like relics for them.

The cost and function of these relics are very simple:

The price of a doll that can change its clothes every day is to draw pictures with clothes on it.

There are water cups that you can drink from all kinds of drinks, but the price is that you have to fill them with hot water in advance.

There is also a robot piggy that can float in the sky. The price is that you have to get up early every morning and blow on the piggy after brushing your teeth...

Most of the relics are like child's play. Children who choose these relics are inevitably scolded and beaten by their parents after they come out, and the square is filled with wailing. Soon, the boy in a mature suit arrived. He gave an "OK" gesture to his father, who was also well-dressed, and walked towards the spring.

The spring water rolled up, and the giant hand caught him in the fountain.

Golden raindrops fell, and the elf appeared again.

"Kid, what do you want most?" The elf asked the same question as he did to other children: "Don't lie."

A paintbrush appears on the surrounding water, which can draw a rainbow-like curve in the sky...

The boy in the suit was still staring at the paintbrush longingly, but he soon became cruel and turned his head away from looking at it.

Then he rolled his eyes, as if he was thinking about something, and began to recite without emotion:

"I want a relic that can obliterate the creatures I see. It's in the form of a bracelet or a ring. The price is that after wearing this relic, my body will be temporarily insubstantial."

When the elf heard this, the smile on his face disappeared instantly and he looked at the boy in the suit coldly.

But the boy didn't seem to stop reciting.

"Erasure refers to the complete killing of creatures, which completely renders them lifeless and unable to move, attack, forage, etc., including undead abyss creatures. To erase is to make them dissipate on the spot, including..."

"Creatures include all abyssal species, earth species, alien world species, relic-derived species, and mechanical life..."

"Void means that everything around me cannot touch me, including light, sound and other material phenomena, including relic phenomena, special abyss creature attacks..."

"Note 1: The blur will not cause me to be unable to receive signals from the outside world. I can still stand on the ground and perceive everything around me through my five senses, but none of this can harm me."

"Note 2: The deformation of the body will not affect the user's body when not wearing the relic, nor will it cause any distortion, including mental or physical distortion. It will not affect the surrounding things, and will not..."

"..."

"The final interpretation right of this relic belongs to the user."

"complete."

The boy memorized it for a long time, and every word was clearly noted, like clauses in a contract.

He must have practiced it for a long time and recited it very smoothly without any mistakes.

The elf patiently listened to his recitation.

The paintbrush above the water flow has disappeared, and the scattered golden raindrops have also disappeared.

"I will grant your wish."

The elf's tone was a little disappointed, and he stretched out his drooping arm, and a silver ring appeared in the boy's hand.

This time, the elf dissipated without saying anything, and the water flow swept in again, roughly grabbing the boy in the suit.

Throwing it with his giant hand, the boy hit the ground hard outside the fountain.

The originally neat little suit was soaked through, and the boy was blown by the wind and sneezed.

He grabbed the ring in embarrassment and walked towards his father who was waiting for him.

The father casually took out a handkerchief.

"Wipe it yourself, don't be embarrassed."

Then he opened his hand and took the ring.

"Did you recite it as I taught you before?"

The boy was trembling and replied excitedly: "Dad, I recited it all and haven't forgotten a word!"

He looked at his father expectantly, as if he wanted to be praised.

But the man just held the ring in his hand and kept looking at it, ignoring the boy.

No one noticed that there was an uncontrollable crazy desire in the father's eyes.
