Mythology Rebooted-Chapter 643 - 266: Teacher, You Smell So Good! _3

Valkyrie pondered deeply, unable to fathom the reason and guessed it might be related to Wayne and Veronica. The former could wear her on his body, while the latter was a descendant of the Sun Knight’s Entourage, both having intricate connections with Knights.

"This explanation is even less reliable than random chance, although I have been selected randomly twice, the probability is so low it’s almost a miracle, even more unreliable..."

Wayne furrowed his brow and asked, "Veronica, have you ever been to Highway 114 before?"

"Never."

Veronica looked around curiously, the dense fog eerie and chilling, with fierce-looking trees hiding deep within the mist, as if they could pounce at any moment.

Veronica was most afraid of Drifting Ghosts, but now she wasn’t the slightest bit panicked, standing by Valkyrie and Wayne, she even found herself wishing the Drifting Ghosts would hurry up and come.

Elsewhere, on Highway 114.

Dick drove back and forth, diving into the fog each time, only to emerge a hundred meters away from the foggy area.

He was sweating profusely with anxiety, suspecting that there was something wrong with the way he activated the Magic Array. He removed it and tried again, yet still could not find a passage into the Misty Sea.

If it was just a matter of not being able to get in, it wouldn’t be a big problem; everyone could sit down and take another look, at most it would delay some time.

However, the car driven by Wayne had successfully entered the Foggy Sea, and Veronica was also in the car, losing contact thereafter.

"Boss, what do we do?"

"Keep trying, if not during the day, then at night, I refuse to believe that..."

"We’ve already waited an hour, do we keep waiting for them?"

Wayne glanced at his watch, which showed that fifty-eight minutes had passed, but his biological clock told him an hour had gone by.

The biological clock was more accurate, Wayne believed in his body’s signals; the hands of the watch were getting slower, indicating the presence of an unidentified magnetic field around them.

Last time he entered there should have been a similar situation, but he hadn’t noticed due to insufficient strength.

Veronica and Valkyrie both remained silent, the former giving up on thinking, the latter pondering insufficiently, leaving Wayne as the brain of the trio, deciding not to wait for Dick and accelerating down the highway.

Soon, the sedan entered an unknown region where the road conditions worsened. After passing through a familiar tunnel, a solitary and low building appeared on the side of the road.

After crossing the tunnel, the dense fog dispersed slightly and Wayne looked towards the distant Black Mountain Range, lowering his voice, "The last time I passed by, I heard sounds coming from the mountains. Though I didn’t see it with my own eyes, I’m certain that thing was huge, very huge."

"How big?" Veronica tilted her head.

"..."

Seeing her pure curiosity, Wayne fell silent, seriously wondering if she was trying to tease him.

Valkyrie was also very curious and asked Wayne just how big it was.

Wayne didn’t speak, and only Veronica looked out the window, hanging her head and shrugging her shoulders.

"It’s not okay to bully the teacher."

Wayne gave her a karate chop and continued to drive forward. Ten minutes later, he pointed to the tunnel exit ahead, "Remember the route. If any of us get separated by accident, don’t try to find others; just leave from here."

These words were as good as not said. Valkyrie wouldn’t possibly leave her student behind, Veronica, feeling like the weakest link, was sure to die without protection, and Wayne was also unlikely to just walk away without a care.

The car turned around and ten minutes later, back at the starting position.

Wayne stopped the car, his gaze sweeping over several low-lying buildings, he frowned and said, "Valkyrie, are you sure Veronica could sense the power of the Sun Knight?"

He tried to push the car door open, sniffed the moist air, closed his eyes for a moment to sense his surroundings, and felt no discomfort within him.

The Book of Greed had no reaction.

"Can do."

Valkyrie stepped out of the car, her knightly armor vanished into light, then proportionally apparelled upon Veronica.

The blonde girl, dressed in ancient, decrepit knight’s armor and carrying a shining greatsword on her back, had the semblance of a Valkyrie at first glance, but her youthful demeanor lacked the subtle nobility of an elder knight sister, reminding Wayne of a captive knight princess after defeat.

The painting style of the battered and tarnished armor just happened to fit the bill.

Veronica closed her eyes to feel the power the armor brought, her body covered in a warm glow, a flame rising in her heart, the potent force inside her making her impatient to find an evil dragon to measure her strength against.

Too bad Veronica wasn’t there.

At that moment, a pair of delicate white arms embraced her from behind, fingers resting on the back of Veronica’s hand, she instinctively turned her head and saw Valkyrie’s stunningly gorgeous face, and couldn’t help but swallow softly.

Teacher, you smell so nice!

Suddenly, Veronica felt herself falling in love.

Valkyrie’s elven features were noble and graceful, especially that mature, confident aura, which made Veronica deeply yearn to be like her, just as graceful, just as...

Wait a minute!

Every time Wayne put on the armor, was he also embraced by elder sister from behind?

Veronica’s breath hitched; she knew Wayne too well—if she, as a girl, longed for the elder knight sister, then Wayne certainly...

The bastard, she’s a teacher, she doesn’t even have a body!

"Veronica, have you sensed the power of the Sun Knight yet?"

Wayne touched his blonde head. He wasn’t wearing armor and couldn’t see the spirit behind, but thinking of the beautiful women sticking close, he couldn’t help but inwardly cheer.

Veronica closed her eyes and tried again, searching for the same kind of power within her, but shook her head after a moment.

"What did I say, that so-called envoy is unreliable..."

Wayne opened the car door and took out Snowy Owl Ah Xue from the birdcage: "Like this Envoy His Excellency, it’s also very unreliable, doing nothing but eating mice all day long."

Valkyrie thought it strange, discontent with Wayne’s disparagement, patiently said, "Veronica, the Envoy of the Goddess told me that you can sense the power of the Sun Knight. Don’t be nervous, relax your thoughts, and I believe you can see."

Veronica tried again, her thoughts turned into rays of light scanning the surroundings, the fog, the houses, the distant mountains, and...

The monster hidden within one of the houses, its body twisted out of human shape.

Veronica’s eyes snapped open, the monstrous visage causing her discomfort. She ducked behind Wayne, pointing towards the old house opposite and said:

"There’s a monster, it’s coming over..."
