Chapter 431 Blast
Night at Sakura's house.
Sakura's room.
"how's it going?"
"Elliot still hasn't replied..."
Sakura sat on the bed, refreshing the inbox on her phone, but no matter how many times she refreshed it, there were no new messages in the inbox.
"Maybe it's because of the time difference. Let's wait and see."
Seeing that Sakura seemed a little depressed, Xiaoke reached out and touched Sakura's head, comforting her in his own way.
"Well, thank you, Xiaoke."
Sakura smiled and thanked Xiao Ke, but soon she noticed another gaze.
Turning her head, she saw Xiao Xi, who was squatting beside the bed, staring at the mobile phone in her hand, as if he was thinking about something.
Seeing this, Xiaoying smiled and replied: "After the Xiaoying card became a transparent card, I sent a message to Elio and the others to ask about it. Xiaoxi, you also know Elio and the others, right?"
"Ah? Oh, Xiao Xi knows about Elio and the others."
Xiao Xi, who was distracted, came back to his senses when he heard the voice and nodded to indicate that he knew them.
However, it was not thinking about Elio just now, but mainly about the smartphone in Sakura's hand.
It always felt that the smartphone looked familiar, a bit like the sample phone that its owner had exchanged a few months ago, except for the color.
That was last year. It vaguely remembered that its owner seemed to say something that it had finally made it, and then exchanged it for a bunch of smartphone samples and corresponding structure manuals.
It turns out that the owner has already entered the smartphone industry, and now everyone has one.
Thinking of this, Xiao Xi looked at Xiao Ying and said, "So Elio and the others haven't responded yet?"
Sakura nodded and said, "Yeah, I also sent a message to Teacher Guanyue, but Teacher Guanyue didn't reply to me. Maybe it's the same as Xiaoke said, because of the time difference, they haven't seen the message yet."
jet lag……
Xiao Xi was silent. The UK is located in the Central Time Zone and Japan is located in the Eastern Time Zone, so Japan is nine hours ahead of the UK, with a time difference of nine hours.
Even if there is a time difference, it is now around nine o'clock in the evening, and it should be broad daylight in the UK. How is it possible that I can't see the news?
Furthermore, email communication via smartphone does not require mailing time like letters, and you can even make video calls directly...
Why does it feel like Elio and the others are deliberately avoiding Sakura's questions and not answering them?
Although he felt that he had guessed the truth, Xiao Xi did not tell Xiao Ying about his guess. Instead, he secretly told his master and then nodded.
"So this is ah."
"Okay, it's time to go to bed. It's time to go to bed."
Seeing that Xiaoxi had finished chatting with Xiaoying, Xiaoke said something first, then flew to the switch and pressed it to turn off the light.
Seeing this, Sakura also covered herself with the quilt and lay down on the bed obediently, saying, "Good night, Xiaoke, Xiaoxi."
"Goodnight, Miss Sakura."
"Good night, have a sweet dream, Sakura."
"Yeah...you too."
After saying good night, Sakura glanced at the pink bear on the counter again, a smile appeared on her lips, and she said silently in her heart.
Good night, little wolf.
night--
The illusory space has no light source, but allows people to see everything around them clearly. In the dark space, Sakura opens her eyes and wakes up.
The familiar feeling made her realize instantly that this was a dream.
The familiar cloaked man appeared in front of her again, with broken transparent cards floating around him, hiding everything about him under his cloak.
"Who are you?"
In response to Sakura's question, the cloaked man said nothing, but raised his hand slightly. The broken cards around him then glowed faintly, and pointed the sharp end at Sakura.
The next moment, countless cards flew forward. Sakura quickly covered her eyes with her hands. No pain was felt, and a sudden pink light lit up from under her.
Sakura opened her eyes in confusion and saw the broken transparent cards gathering above her. In just a moment, the fragments gathered into an irregular crystal ball.
Looking at this strange scene, Sakura reached out her hand in a daze, and the crystal ball fell into her hand, and then turned into a small key in the next moment.
The small key was a bit like her previous star key, but the center was a crystal octagonal star, which was now emitting a dreamy crystal light.
"key?"
Before Sakura could react, the cloaked man in front of her suddenly moved, and the dream changed accordingly, and a violent roar was suddenly heard.
With this roar, a giant winged one-horned snake of unknown length appeared in the night sky, with a light blue gem on its body emitting a faint glow.
Above the giant snake's horn, the cloaked man was floating quietly. Then he stretched out his hand and hooked it. The crystal key that suddenly appeared shone brightly, as if it was about to fly towards the cloaked man.
Although she didn't know what would happen next, Sakura always felt that she couldn't hand over the key. Just as she was holding the key tightly, a shout suddenly came.
"Sakura--!"
Sakura suddenly woke up after the shout and opened her eyes on the bed.
"You had a nightmare? Are you okay?" Xiao Ke looked at Xiao Ying nervously and couldn't help asking. "Dream?"
Sakura sat up on the bed and was about to say something when she suddenly realized that she seemed to be holding something in her hand.
He lowered his head and opened his palm, and saw that the crystal key was emitting a faint light, illuminating the silent darkness.
"Is this... the key from the dream?"
……
The next day, early in the morning.
Cherry Blossom Avenue.
"What exactly happened last night, Sakura? And that new key that suddenly appeared in your hand?"
On the way to school, Xiao Ke hid in Sakura's handbag and asked Sakura.
"Xiao Xi and I were both awakened by your talking in your sleep last night. You looked like you were having a nightmare, so we woke you up."
"Well, at that time, Miss Sakura, you kept saying no or something." Xiao Xi, who was also lying in the handbag, nodded and added.
After hearing what the two said, Sakura recalled, "I don't know if that dream was a nightmare or not, but it was a very strange dream, and this new key appeared in the dream."
"Let's talk about it together when we get to school. We must let Xiaolang and the others know. By the way, did you feel nothing last night?"
In response to Sakura's question, Xiaoke and Xiaoxi looked at each other and shook their heads.
"I didn't notice anything until I was awakened by your screams in a nightmare..."
Just as Xiaoke finished speaking, a sudden gust of wind appeared and came towards Sakura without any warning.
"Danger!"
"Wall of light!"
Two voices sounded at the same time. As soon as Xiaoke said it was dangerous, Xiaoxi had already used his defensive skills.
The moment the invisible wind blade approached his body, an invisible curtain of light appeared, as thin as a gauze but extremely tough.
The two collided, and the invisible wind blade was blocked by the light curtain. The next second, Sakura reacted and did a front flip to create some distance.
Only then did she have time to turn around and see the wind escaping from behind the light curtain. Sakura asked in surprise, "What is this?"
"I don't know. I can't sense any breath." Xiao Ke frowned tightly. He couldn't even sense the breath of magic.
Before they could finish their words, the invisible wind gathered again, like a sharp sword breaking through the air, sweeping towards their location.
"Suffered..."
Just as Sakura was about to turn around and run away, the crystal key that appeared for no reason and was worn on her body suddenly flew out by itself and once again lit up with a dreamy light.
"This is……"
Looking at the key in front of her that resonated with the invisible wind, Sakura's thoughts raced, and she immediately guessed something. She quickly grabbed it and input her own magic power into it.
"The seal is lifted!"
In an instant, a new magic circle suddenly lit up under Sakura. It was a magic circle composed of patterns of the sun and the moon, as well as crystal-like stars.
There are four Chinese characters for earth, water, fire and wind on the four sides of the magic circle. Each Chinese character uses the element that corresponds to it as its color. The new magic circle is less complicated than the previous sun, moon and star magic circle and looks simpler.
In this magic circle, the crystal key instantly expanded and turned into a dreamy magic wand.
Its appearance is somewhat similar to the Star Staff, but there are more stars in the middle, and the ring surrounding the stars has spikes that appear to increase the attack power.
After holding the new wand in her hand, Sakura looked at the invisible wind that was once again blocked by Xiaoxi's light wall, and immediately used her past experience to guess what she would do next.
With the magic wand in hand, the only option is to seal it.
But she immediately thought of another thing, that is the spell. In the early days of the conversion of the Clow Cards to Sakura Cards, she already understood clearly that if she changed to a new one, everything would have to start all over again.
Since the wand in your hand is a new one, you must use a new spell as well.
Thinking of this, Sakura recalled the opportunity for the appearance of this magic wand, and the invisible thing that could not be seen or touched, and even Xiaoke could not perceive it.
Got it!
"O ownerless thing, follow the guidance of the Wand of Dreams and turn it into my power!"
As the spell was recited, a new magic circle lit up again, and Sakura took the opportunity to move her wand forward a little, reciting loudly.
"Get the card!"
In an instant, the hexagonal star in the center of the Dream Wand began to spin rapidly, and a dreamy crystal light lit up.
The real and the unreal switched back and forth, and countless crystals burst out from the front of the Dream Staff, completely fixing the invisible object in front. Then, after the crystals expanded to their limit, they shattered.
In the center of the shattered crystal, a card slowly fell and was caught by Sakura.
The card is different from the Clow Cards and Sakura Cards. It is completely transparent, with a new magic circle printed on the back and an image of an invisible object printed on the front.
The image of the invisible thing is similar to a combination of a flying bird and a swimming fish, but its wings and tail feathers are as sharp as blades. The two Chinese characters "疾风" are written at the top, and the English word "GALE" is written at the bottom.
"New card..."
