Under the moonlight, Lin Zhong Lake was tranquil and serene.
The shimmering surface of the lake saw about a dozen Ze Meng boats quietly passing to and fro. From these boats, vibrant spells rose and diffused.
This was the patrol team of the university's workers' committee, performing a dragnet-style check.
The abundant fireflies released by the workers had almost enveloped the entire Lin Zhong Lake. The lights of various colors - white, cyan, blue, and green - fused together, shining as dazzlingly as the aurora.
If this wasn't during the curfew, the sight would have certainly attracted a large crowd of students for sightseeing.
To some magical creatures that earned their livelihood around the lake, this swarm of fireflies was a rare feast.
On the bank, several bald Kappa were continuously hopping about on their short legs, catching a few fireflies to stuff into their mouths. Then, baring their sharp teeth, they brazenly mocked the discomfited wizards.
