"Wait a minute, I'm maintaining the normal time order. Even if you don't give me a reward, why do you have to pay the price?"
Xia De protested in his heart, but in fact, because of fatigue, he no longer had the intention to object.
"She" smiled softly:
[If you complete the Time Key mission, there is indeed no need to pay for the help given by the tree father. But didn’t you use the key to the Black Mist Camp in advance for the sake of the Silver Moon Library? 】
"I stress again, I'm not doing this for the Silver Moon Library. At least not entirely. Okay, okay, purify the curse. I've had enough tonight."
He took a step back and watched as the green leaves left on the pitch-black figure's forehead melted into a soft green light, enveloping Envy Edwards' soul. However, after just a few dozen seconds, the green light dissipated.
, the dazed pure white soul stood up from the ground and looked helplessly at everything in front of it.
His father, Sloth Edwards, came over, held him in his arms, and did not speak for a long time.
"The Evergreen Leaf can be regarded as the remaining power of the tree father, so it is protected by time and space."
Watching this scene, Iluna felt like she understood something. She breathed a sigh of relief and said to Shade with a smile:
"I didn't expect it to be so simple."
"This is not easy."
If it weren't for Shade, even if someone else held the leaf, there's a high probability that they wouldn't be able to touch the power left behind by the ancient god of time so easily.
But things here are not over yet. [Night Watch] is still in the lake in the east of the island, and Laplace Klein Howard still needs to deal with:
"Iluna, think about how to explain what happened just now. However, you can say that it was the 'God Summoner' who forcibly borrowed your power very rudely."
Iluna also laughed and looked at the confused people in the Edwards family:
"What to do with these people?"
"We are in the old house, waiting for you to come see us. Before that, I will not let anyone enter the house."
Sloth Edwards said to Shad that, except for his father and Rust Edwards, who has disappeared, he is the oldest here:
"Father has already lost to you, so you don't have to doubt that my words are some other conspiracy."
"Okay, but you may have to wait for me for a few days."
Shade said, Sloth Edwards nodded, and 15 people moved through space and disappeared here.
Megan, who was still weak, came over, and Shade picked her up. Compared to Megan, Shade, who had just eaten an immortal leaf, was in better condition now.
He felt the witch's weight and said to Iluna:
"Well, Iluna, I'm going to solve the problem with the fortune teller. I wish you a happy birthday."
"Happy birthday to you."
The witch in his arms also whispered, twice.
"You already said this just now, don't forget my gift."
The eighteen-year-old girl smiled and watched as Shade hugged Megan and jumped off the edge of the wreckage.
The church's ring magicians then flew here. As for the fallen Shade and Megan, they were quickly caught by the witches.
Miss Sylvia took Shade's hand, and Miss Carina took Megan's hand.
The great witch of wisdom and knowledge asked the red-haired duchess with a pale face:
"I thought you always hated me."
"Look what you said, we are all sisters of the Council. Besides, don't we all have him now?"
The red-haired duchess seemed to be in a particularly high mood at the moment.
"Shadow, where are you going?"
Miss Sylvia asked him, and Shade pointed in the direction of the lighthouse:
"Just put me over there and I'll take care of it myself. Go and see what's going on with the Earth Guardian. There's something wrong with him. Oh, help me see Luvia, Agelina, the doctor and
Regarding the situation of the priest, and the girls in the hotel, before you came here in the middle of the night, luckily they supported me, I hope everyone is okay, and Durut Giles, please don't be so sad, I will have
There’s a way.”
Although they knew that the fortune teller was still dangerous even now, the witches had great confidence in Shade, so they did not say that they would go with Shade. Miss Carina took Megan back to the hotel to rest, and Sylvie
Miss Ya sent Shade to the cemetery of Sloth Edwards' wife outside the lighthouse, and immediately went to the door of Edwards' old house to look for Luvia and Agelina.
It was still a long time before dawn, and although stars and the moon now appeared in the night sky, the hills in the southern part of the island were still extremely dark.
Shade saw no trace of the soothsayer and pushed open the door under the lighthouse. He immediately saw Sister Devlin standing on the first floor of the empty tower.
The nun, whose hands were clasped together and hanging in front of her, turned her head and faced Shade with the densely patterned mithril eyepatch:
"He's right in front."
"Okay, let's go."
Shade nodded and opened the trap door on the ground.
The two of them entered the basement together. It was not a large area and was filled with a musty smell. There were various debris from unknown ages piled up on the walls, but there was no trace of human activity.
Sister Devlin stretched out her right hand. After the flame was attached to the surface of her palm, she seemed to have caught something in the air, and then twisted it gently.
A flame different from the one on the nun's palm emerged in the air. The nun took two steps back, stood with Shade, and "watched" the flames spinning in the air, eventually turning into a standard-sized adult.
Pass through the fire door.
The light of the flame is quite bright, warm and pleasant. Not only Sister Devlin, but also Shade can feel it. The flames of the first fire and the ancient sealing ceremony that have sealed the island for several epochs are just like that.
Behind this fire door.
Although relying on the induction of the first fire, Shade has been able to feel the position of the flame since he came to the island. But without Sister Devlin, he would have difficulty opening this door. Even if the "door key"
No matter how powerful it is, it still needs to find the door to be effective.
So the nun took the lead in passing through the door, and Shade followed closely. Her body came into contact with the flames that formed the door, and the feeling of warmth, like warm water, helped Shade wash away his fatigue after a hard night's work.
There was no darkness behind the door. There was red dry land under the feet, and there were fires everywhere. The raging fire seemed to burn the whole world. Even when you raised your head and looked up at the sky, all you saw were flames.
Sister Devlin and Shade, who were walking in front, had fiery red cracks on their bodies almost at the same time. The fire on the cuffs spread to the whole body, until the jumpsuits were placed in the middle of the walk, and fiery red embers were also sprayed back.
The special state of "Afterglow of the First Fire" sensed the power of these flames and was directly called out. The flames surging around, in its current state, were slowly absorbed by Sha De as he breathed, and then were transformed.
For spirit.
Although under normal conditions, Shade can absorb flames and convert them into spirits, the speed of absorption is faster at this time, and the conversion efficiency is also higher. Normally, Shade always thinks that he has the power of "breathing back blood" and "breathing back spirit".
He has a special physique like this, but only now did he feel that this was the state in which he could restore himself just by breathing.
Although these flames are not the first fire, they are definitely not ordinary flames. Sister Devlin seemed to know what Shade was wondering about, and explained softly:
"The split first fire, without the care of the fire nuns, even if it lights the firewood, it cannot turn the power of the firewood into a part of itself. These flames are all firewood ignited by the first fire. The flame itself
It is of no use to others, but we can turn it into our own spirit."
She stretched out her right hand to Shade. Shade was stunned for a moment before taking the nun's hand, and felt the burn marks all over the nun's warm palm with touch. Then, the warm heat poured into Shade from the nun's palm.
body, the flame absorbed from the nun's left hand was quickly passed to Shade through her right hand, and was transformed into a spirit by Shade, helping him recover quickly.
Sister Devlin absorbs flames obviously faster than Shade.
The flames here should be intentionally left by the people who set up this seal as a peripheral defense measure for the seal. Since those ancient times, things on the island should have been accidentally falling into this space and then being ignited, thus causing
These seemingly never-ending flames grow stronger and stronger.
The huge spirit transformed from the flames was soon enough for Shade to release the Mystery Lock again. Of course, the power cannot be compared with the "divine overflow" state just now, but it should be more than enough to use "Tree Kiss" to seal it.
.
The surging sea of fire automatically parted the road in front of Sister Devlin, and the two continued to move forward following the induction of the flames of the first fire. After a while, strong traces of miraculous elements appeared in the flames ahead, and they continued to move forward.
, then you can vaguely see the light of the magical ritual in the firelight.
Laplace Klein Howard is also waiting for them here.
He seemed to have a way to avoid the flames. He was wearing a bloody robe. Although his strength was far less than that of Thirteen Rings, at least his limbs had been completely repaired.
He held a conical glass bottle in his hand. Inside the bottle was a double stone door that was tightly bound by a brass chain but still floating in the bottle.
"Evil - Door in a Bottle."
Shade said that this was also the last of the five dangerous items held by the traitors of the Prophet Association that Luvia had divined and had not yet used.
The fortune teller nodded at him:
"I lost to you, so please let me do one last thing for you."
He pressed the bottle against his left chest, pushed it gently, and the bottle actually sank into his chest.
The monocle has long since disappeared. Compared with the elegance and calmness he saw at the beginning, the fortune teller now looks particularly vicissitudes of life even with the use of playing cards. The fortune teller took a deep breath:
"This thing is too dangerous. It should be burned by the original fire and become the fuel to maintain the original fire. This is its most appropriate destination."
