Very soon.
Under the guidance of Crystal Winslow, Aster Grant quickly reached the entrance of the Ice Cave where the Snow Maiden resided.
Aster Grant halted his steps, his thoughts stirring slightly, summoning Vera to his side.
Without needing Aster's instruction, Vera understood his intention.
She gracefully raised her hand, her fingertips glowing with a shimmering green light.
Then the ground trembled slightly, and a green cocoon tightly wrapped in tangled vines slowly broke through the snow layer, rising into view.
The cocoon, under Vera's control, opened layer by layer like petals, revealing the quietly lying figure inside—
It was the unconscious Noelle Quinn.
Seeing this figure, Crystal Winslow was somewhat surprised:
"Noelle?"
"How did she get injured like this?"
Aster Grant shook his head, indicating he would explain later.
Then, he summoned Lazuli once more.
Lazuli's injuries were much lighter than Noelle Quinn's.
