Princess Lily Arrives

Chapter 155 The Missing Ancient Book

Lily and her friends had just returned from the Far North, and before they had time to rest for a few days, something big happened in the academy. One morning, when Lily, Mo Li, Xiao Pang, and Feng Yang were enjoying breakfast in the cafeteria, a hurried academy administrator ran in.

"Princess Lily, Master Mo Li, something bad has happened! Something happened in the library!" the manager said breathlessly.

"What? What happened?" Lily immediately put down the bread in her hand and stood up.

"The most precious ancient book in the library is missing, and we suspect it was stolen." The manager replied nervously.

Lily and her friends immediately rushed to the library and found that it had been blocked and several senior tutors from the academy were investigating the scene. The library was in chaos, with books scattered all over the floor, as if there had been a fierce fight.

"What's so special about this book?" Mo Li asked.

“This book records the oldest spells and secrets of the wizarding world. Once it falls into the wrong hands, the consequences will be disastrous,” said a tutor seriously.

Lily squatted down and carefully examined the traces at the scene. Suddenly, she found a strange scale. She picked up the scale and looked at it carefully, and found that the scale was very similar to the ice dragon they encountered in the Far North.

"This scale is unusual. It may be related to the ice dragon we encountered before." Lily said thoughtfully.

"It looks like we are about to embark on another adventure." Feng Yang shrugged with a helpless smile.

Just as they were about to leave the library, a strange voice came: "Are you looking for this book?"

When they looked back, they saw a mysterious man in a black robe and a mask on his face standing at the door of the library, holding the missing ancient book in his hand.

"Who are you?" Mo Li asked vigilantly.

"It doesn't matter who I am. What's important is this book." The mysterious man smiled grimly. "If you want this book back, come find me."

After saying that, the mysterious man turned around and disappeared into the thick fog. Lily and her friends immediately chased after him, but found that the man had disappeared, leaving only a strange rune formation.

"This rune seems to be a teleportation array." Feng Yang observed it, "It seems we need to crack it."

Lily nodded: "We need to use the rune master of the academy."

They found the rune master of the academy, hoping to unlock the secret of the teleportation array. The rune master studied it carefully and said, "This is indeed an advanced teleportation array that can teleport to a very far place. I can help you open the passage, but you need to be prepared."

With the help of the Rune Master, Lily and the others successfully opened the teleportation array and entered a strange place. It was a desolate ruin with collapsed buildings and broken stone statues everywhere.

"Where is this place?" Xiaopang looked around, his face full of confusion.

"It looks like an abandoned ancient city." Mo Li said.

They moved forward cautiously among the ruins. Suddenly, a ray of light flashed and a figure jumped out from the ruins, blocking their way.

"You've come just in time." The mysterious man appeared again, holding the ancient book in his hand, "Welcome to my territory."

Lily and her companions immediately took up a fighting stance, ready to deal with any emergency. The mysterious man sneered, waved the ancient book in his hand, and a powerful magic wave attacked.

Lily quickly cast a protective magic to block the attack. However, the mysterious man's power was obviously not to be underestimated, and he continued to launch waves of powerful attacks, trying to break down Lily and her team's defenses.

"We can't just defend, we must fight back!" Feng Yang shouted, casting wind magic, creating a powerful whirlwind and rushing straight towards the mysterious man.

Xiaopang used his flying magic to attack the mysterious man from the air, while Moli used fire magic to create a flame barrier to block the mysterious man's attack. Lily concentrated her energy and tried to find the mysterious man's flaw.

Just as they were fighting, suddenly, a blue light fell from the sky and hit the mysterious man. The mysterious man cried out, fell to the ground, and the ancient book in his hand fell to the ground.

Lily quickly stepped forward and picked up the ancient book, only to find that the mysterious man had disappeared, leaving only a black mask.

"He ran away?" asked Xiaopang, panting.

"It seems so, but at least we got the ancient book back." Lily breathed a sigh of relief, "We need to take the book back to the academy and study it carefully."

After returning to the academy, Lily and her friends handed the ancient book to senior tutors, hoping to find more clues from it. The tutors carefully studied the book and found that it contained not only ancient spells, but also prophecies about the future of the magic world.

"It seems that this book is not just a magic book, it also foreshadows many future events." The mentors said thoughtfully.

Lily nodded: "We must protect this book and prevent it from falling into the wrong hands again."

Although they successfully retrieved the ancient book, Lily felt that the matter was far from over. Who was that mysterious man? Was there a bigger conspiracy behind him?

Lily and her friends decided to continue their investigation. They knew that the road ahead would still be full of challenges, but they were ready. No matter what difficulties they encountered, they would face them together and protect the peace of the magic world.
