“Bethany!”
“Bethany!”
“Come here!”
Bethany felt dizzy, as if she were wandering in a forest world glowing with green light. In this forest world, there were many animals: owls twisting their heads, large cats with fluffy bodies and black stripes, pine trees lying in their nests sleeping, and terrifying, slimy snakes.
Behind the mountains, Bethany saw a lake as clear as a mirror, shimmering with silver light under the moonlight. On the gentle hillside beside the lake, green grass Yin Yin was abundant, dotted with numerous giant stones, each one enormous and forming a regular circle.
At the center of Stonehenge, a tall stone pillar stood with a stone statue on top. Made of pure white stone, it depicted a cat with wings crouching above, ready to take flight, with a golden disc held in its mouth.
Bethany immediately recognized it and shouted, “Angel Cat!”
Soft music began to play, and Bethany seemed to see countless white shadows dancing in the center of the stone circle. Torches were lit one by one, changing the colors of heaven and earth. Time seemed to rewind as she watched the dilapidated Stonehenge gradually being restored; the stones that had collapsed onto the ground were being repaired and returned to their original positions.
As the nearby lake slowly shrank and gradually turned into a flat expanse of land, she saw many people coming and going here, seemingly worshipping deities or perhaps holding some kind of meeting. Sometimes it even became a place for young people to rendezvous.
Further ahead, she saw some people dressed in burlap driving slaves to mine for ores. The slaves wore only simple leather skirts or grass skirts as they gradually polished the surrounding rocks into square shapes. The massive structure of Stonehenge was built little by little over long years.
Bethany found it particularly interesting; it felt as if the sun rose and set in an instant. The scenery around her changed like building blocks being assembled—spring, summer, autumn, winter continuously shifting as people came and went. It was like teleportation, making Bethany clap her hands and laugh heartily.
“Hahaha!”
“Bethany!”
“Bethany, it's time to get up! If you stay in bed any longer, you'll turn into a pig!”
Before Bethany could finish watching these scenes, her sister Emma called her awake. She opened her eyes and looked at Emma: “Sister, I was having such an interesting dream!”
"Really? Let's get up first, and you can tell your sister about it later!"
"Mm-hmm!" At that moment, Bethany yawned, as if she hadn't rested well at all last night.
"Sister, I want to sleep a little longer!" Bethany said while rubbing her eyes. She felt particularly sleepy because she had been having a strange dream last night.
Emma looked over and immediately became worried. What if something was wrong? After asking a few questions and finding out everything was fine, she felt relieved. "Bethany, let's go downstairs for breakfast first, and then you can rest afterward, okay?"
In the restaurant downstairs, Bai Yujing was busy searching for information on her computer. Various images related to the Golden Disc kept appearing on the screen. Bai Yujing compared them one by one and confirmed they were all incorrect; none of them had anything to do with the Fountain of Youth.
At that moment, information about the Angel Cat was uploaded to Bai Yujing's phone through the Endangered Species Conservation Organization app. The internal data within the Endangered Species Conservation Organization should have the most comprehensive information about these endangered creatures and legendary beings. Bai Yujing immediately opened it up and found that legends about the Angel Cat had existed for thousands of years, mostly passed down in the form of fairy tales.
The Angel Cat, also known as the Flying Cat, is a variant creature that was once reported in Samas City, England, during the eighteenth century. According to legend, the Angel Cat is a being that can fly through the air using its wings. It enters children's dreams to help them fulfill their wishes and is capable of manipulating dreams. Many folk tales feature its legend, portraying it as a friendly animal.
It seems that there really is such a creature as the Angel Cat; however, it doesn't seem to help in finding the Healing Spring Gold Plate. Bai Yujing shifted her focus back to her computer to see if she could find any clues regarding the Healing Spring Gold Plate.
Bai Yujing had also looked over the materials Emma brought back yesterday; most of them were vague records and legends. Finding the Healing Spring Gold Plate would likely not be an easy task.
At this moment, Emma was bouncing down the wooden stairs while holding Bethany's small hands. Emma immediately saw Bai Yujing still holding her computer. "Ian, you're still looking? It's probably hard to find clues online! These records are only found in some very ancient texts. I've decided to make another trip to the library today; there are some obscure books on ancient legends and history on the third floor!"
Bai Yujing nodded. "Indeed, there hasn't been much progress. Let's eat first." She put away her computer and picked up a stack of materials spread out on the table, preparing to pack them back into her bag.
At that moment, Bethany spotted a photo on top of the stack and exclaimed, "Angel Cat!"
Bai Yujing smiled. "Alright, but the Angel Cat has already gone home; we need to have breakfast too!"
"No, no! It's not that! It's that thing in the photo! In my dream, I saw it being held in the mouth of an Angel Cat!" Bethany said loudly.
Bai Yujing initially didn't react but quickly realized what she meant. She pulled out a photo of her Fountain of Youth Golden Plate from among the materials and held it out in front of Bethany. "Is this what you're talking about?"
"Yes, yes, this is it, exactly the same, no, no, it seems a bit different!" Bethany said, wrinkling her small nose.
Bai Yujing immediately said, "Isn't the symbol inside different?"
"Yes, yes, that symbol inside is like this!" Bethany took the pen from Bai Yujing's hand and started drawing on the paper. Although it was a bit crooked, it was about eighty percent accurate.
Bai Yujing exclaimed, "Wow! Bethany, you're amazing, remembering it so clearly!"
This statement was not flattery; ordinary people wouldn't be able to see something and remember its appearance, let alone in a dream. It seemed everyone was a top student, and the only real underachiever was Bai Yujing!
Holding the symbol drawn by Bethany, Bai Yujing then used the pen to complete the outline of the golden plate. In terms of sketching, Bai Yujing still had some skills. "Is it like this?"
"Yes, yes, that's right!"
Bai Yujing and Emma exchanged glances, both showing joy in their eyes. They hadn't expected to make progress so quickly, especially thanks to Bethany; it was truly surprising.
Emma immediately asked Bethany, "Bethany, you've really helped us a lot. Can you tell me what dream you had yesterday?"
"Perhaps this is the blessing of Angel Cat!" Bai Yujing suddenly recalled the information about Angel Cat.
"That's right; it was all told to me by Angel Cat!" Bethany nodded seriously.
