Chapter 982: Chapter 982 Sleep Well, Sleep Well
Is there a magic skill capable of dealing with so many wolves at once?
Qin Sisi began to search her mind, but after a long while, she couldn’t think of any. None of the magic skills she had learned appeared to be useful against a pack of wolves.
Should she use the Freezing Wall for defense?
But wolves were all around, how could she defend? Besides, the wolf pack probably wouldn’t give her the time to build a Freezing Wall.
More and more wolves were looking at Qin Sisi and began to stand up. Sisi felt they might attack at any moment, tearing her into pieces.
Perhaps she wouldn’t die, but the assessment would be considered a failure, right?
Right, the assessment!
In the face of crisis, Qin Sisi calmed down. This was just an assessment, testing her proficiency in a certain type of magic.
She reviewed the contents of the previous assessments and realized that there were only two types of magic left untested - Music Magic and forging.
Forging here seemed unlikely; she felt that the wolf pack wouldn’t spare her just because her longsword was well forged.
So that left only one possibility: Music Magic.
She observed the wolves with her Divine Sense and discovered that among them, some were Third Order Demonic Beasts, while the rest were Second Order.
For her, they were impossible to defeat, and they acted as a team, so the best solution was not to fight.
In this desperate situation, it seemed that her only hope for survival was to play the hypnotic melody learned in Music Magic class to put them all to sleep.
Although the wolf pack had yet to make any big moves, all their eyes were fixated on Qin Sisi, seemingly very interested in her.
After thinking up a plan, Sisi was about to retrieve the Half Moon zither from her storage ring to play the hypnotic melody when she suddenly stiffened up, and her complexion grew ugly.
Upon entering the trial tower, everyone’s storage rings were confiscated by Teacher Yu Sha, and their instruments were all inside, meaning none of them had any instruments to use.
Qin Sisi was slightly nervous, but since she already had a strategy, how could she give up just because she lacked the tools?
Taking a deep breath, she recalled the score of the hypnotic melody, surveyed the surrounding wolves, and with slightly parted lips, she began to sing the melody.
Her voice wasn’t particularly bright but carried a tranquil and leisurely feeling, smooth and delightful notes as if coming from the depth of time, filling the air with the fragrance of night-blooming jasmines, and a faint sense of drowsiness arose from the bottom of her heart.
The melody of the hypnotic song echoed continuously within the cave circled by wolves. Although all the wolves had their eyes wide open staring at Sisi, each one was merely sitting or lying down quietly and didn’t approach her any further.
After several repetitions of the hypnotic song, the green light shimmering from those eyes like Soul Chasing Lamps dimmed significantly.
However, Qin Sisi had never tried merging her magical power into her singing. Just as she was worrying, a sudden flash of light appeared before her, and the Half Moon zither appeared out of nowhere.
It floated beside her without any support, as if it knew Qin Sisi was calling for it in her heart.
Qin Sisi was overjoyed, her singing never ceasing as she reached out to take the Half Moon zither, positioned it in front of herself, and readied her posture.
Having finished singing the melody this time around, she moved her fingers and plucked the strings. The sound of the zither, like a stream flowing through the mountains, clear and pure, began to replace her singing, resonating within the cave.
The subtle changes in the Music Magic caused a slight stir among the wolf pack, but it quickly subsided. Gradually, even the eyes of the wolves revealed expressions of intoxication.
Qin Sisi began to gather the Music Attribute magic power on her fingertips. The light purple magic power dispersed with the lingering music in the cave, drifting past each wolf’s eyes.
The eyes of the wolf pack slowly closed, yet their bodies maintained their original postures without falling into a deep sleep.
Qin Sisi was in no hurry. As the final examination approached its end, and since this was a magic attribute she specialized in, she hoped to perform as well as possible.
The sound of the zither echoed nonstop; all the wolves lay down on the ground, their eyes tightly shut, their soft bellies gently rising and falling with their breaths.
While playing the Half Moon zither, Qin Sisi started moving towards the exit. A long corridor led from the cave to the outside. Perhaps she would be safe once she left the cave!
Her fingers did not stop playing the Half Moon zither, lulling the wolves to sleep amidst the music, as she slowly walked along the corridor and out of the cave.
When she stepped into the sunlight, Qin Sisi took a long, deep breath, and the black badge on her wrist lit up just in time.
Finally, she stopped playing. Looking at her wrist, it also informed her that she had a half-hour break.
This meant that she had passed the Music Magic examination.
Having passed, there should be a reward for completing the trial, right?
Qin Sisi looked back at the cave she had exited from. The reward for completing the trial wouldn’t be left inside the cave, would it? If that were the case, she would really be in a tragic situation.
She searched around the entrance of the cave for a while but found nothing.
This made her quite frustrated. After all the hard work and danger she went through to complete an examination, to not even receive a reward at the end was disappointing.
But this was not something she could change. She picked up the Half Moon zither; without a storage ring, it was really inconvenient to not be able to carry many items.
The Half Moon zither was indeed quite large. Where else could she put it if not into a storage ring? She couldn’t possibly carry such a zither wherever she went.
Just as Qin Sisi was troubled over the Half Moon zither, it suddenly flickered a few times, its outlines becoming blurred.
Only then did Qin Sisi realize that this was not the Half Moon zither she owned, but a mirage. When they played the melody of a lullaby with their own strength and method, such a mirage instrument appeared.
It then accompanied its master, lending her a helping hand.
The Half Moon zither that had helped Qin Sisi lull the wolf pack to sleep vanished, and in the palm of her hand appeared a golden, gleaming pill – it was still a Third Level Rejuvenation Pill.
Qin Sisi counted the marks on it; there were actually five water ripples, indicating that this Spirit Revitalizing Pill was of perfect quality.
A perfect quality Spirit Revitalizing Pill could not only help others swiftly recover magic power, but also the abundant spiritual energy could strengthen the meridians, and the Magic Source would in turn become more stable.
In the process of playing the Half Moon zither, not only did the music need to be pleasant to hear, but to enhance the effect of the lullaby, magic power was also essential to use.
After exiting the cave, Qin Sisi felt her magic power was quite weakened. She truly needed a high-quality pill or spiritual plant to restore her body’s condition, and this perfect quality Third Level Rejuvenation Pill arrived at the perfect time.
Without hesitation, she immediately consumed the Spirit Revitalizing Pill brimming with Spiritual Energy, and her body’s magic power began to rapidly recover with the nourishment of the pill.
