Shade and Miss Winslet did not conduct any other investigations and danced a few more times in the second half of the banquet. Shade was also praised for his good dancing skills.
"Speaking of which, you and Daniste went out today. Is there something you're hiding from me?"
"Why do you say that?"
Shade held her hand that was on his palm and moved along with the music, while the golden eyes in front of him were teasing:
"Before we set out here in the evening, the atmosphere between her and you was obviously not right. I don't believe that you just went to investigate the tomb and contact the hermits. There must have been other things happening to you!"
She didn't get an answer from Shade, but fortunately she didn't keep asking the question. Instead, she asked where Shade learned the dance, and claimed that it was for the six oil paintings promised by Shade.
Get information beforehand.
And as the March Gaohang banquet ended, the guests who attended the banquet also walked into the deep autumn night. There was also the faint sound of the accordion in the city at night, and I didn't know where it came from.
The two people who had been watching on the roof of the building opposite the Earl's mansion saw the Bennet family leaving in a carriage, and then they turned around and walked into the night.
The two did not communicate with each other, and left the city in silence from the southeast of the city and deep into the forest. After making a circle to make sure there were no followers, they entered the acceleration state of "Rapid Curse" and continued to move deeper into the forest.
Half an hour later, the panting two people crossed the warning ceremony and entered an unknown temple ruins in the forest. At least twenty ring warlocks were active here at the moment, arranging the next steps around the half-collapsed stone temple.
ceremony.
The two of them came to the tree next to the ruins, and stood next to the bald middle-aged man who was leaning against the tree with his eyes closed and concentrating:
"Vice President, there was nothing wrong at the banquet. No suspicious ring magicians approached the Bennet family, and no missing Klein and Ben were found. We found police officers suspected of being church ring magicians patrolling the streets, but we did not go there.
Follow the Bennets."
The twelve-ring warlock opened his eyes:
"Thank you for your hard work. Since the other party has not shown any trace, let's prepare according to the president's plan and use a ceremony to open the 'door to the past'. I want to see who is so bold that he dares to kill our people."
Because the church did not issue a wanted warrant and there was no movement in the local black market, the [Tree Hole Association] believed that the two companions who disappeared in Bennet's old house could not have been discovered by the church.
They had already investigated Bennet's old house, but could not find any traces.
Time detection thaumaturgy such as "Echoes from the Past" was also greatly affected within the scope of Bennet's old house. When they wanted to investigate further, they encountered the tracking and surveillance of the witch's followers.
Therefore, the [Tree Hole Association], who did not know the identity of the enemy, chose to use rituals and relics to directly lock the enemy's identity information through the long river of time after the investigation failed. They are very good at this.
The ceremony has been arranged since this evening. When the two people who went to monitor the Bennet family came back, they were almost ready:
"Relic."
The bald man known as the "Vice President" said, and someone immediately brought a black suitcase over, which contained a palm-sized mirror fragment.
As the "Vice President" walked along the staggered steps towards the floor-to-ceiling mirror standing in the center of the ceremony array on the highest floor of the ruins, other people from the [Tree Hole Association] also followed closely.
Ancient elven runes were lit up on the ground one after another, until the surging spirit even began to affect the detection rituals and defense rituals around the site.
The "Vice President" walked in the front and finally came to the floor-to-ceiling mirror, which was the poet's relic [Telescope]. The twelve-ring life ring appeared behind him, with the core spiritual rune [Time] and the blasphemous spiritual rune [Eye].
Flashing light:
"Thumbology - Future Vision!"
A layer of ripples of light appeared in his right eye, and then he covered his right eye with the fragment of the mirror in his hand, the fragment of the sage-level relic - [Gate to the Past].
As the ceremony progressed, the light from the right eye was gradually transferred to the mirror fragments, and then the mirror fragments were thrown towards the floor-standing mirror in front of them.
Boom~ There was a muffled sound, like a colorless thunder in the night sky. But none of the ring warlocks present were nervous, because they had seen similar scenes many times.
Everyone is staring at the mirror, waiting to see who is against them.
As the ceremony progressed to the end, the image of the real world reflected in the mirror was gradually obscured by darkness, and the nine white candles placed on the ground surrounding the mirror lit up with fire.
The firelight did not completely dispel the darkness in the mirror, but it already revealed a standing man.
The people in the ceremony base looked carefully and saw that the man in the mirror had well-proportioned muscles and his upper body was naked. He was looking at the mirror with his back to the [Tree Hole Association], as if he was looking at the mirror hanging in front of him.
Then the man in the mirror raised his right hand, passed his entire right arm across the front of his body, and pressed the back of his neck from the left side. At the same time, his lower body remained still, and his upper body forcibly turned to the left and back, and he looked outside the mirror.
The man's face in the darkness in the mirror was completely unobservable, but the moment his eyes were stared at, everyone outside the mirror took a step back. At that moment, they felt as if they were being stared at by something indescribable and great.
.
The actual gaze shocked everyone. The gaze that spanned a long time was more terrifying than the direct gaze.
"Are you spying on me?" (Chapter 547)
"Oh, God, He sees us! He sees us, He sees us in the past!"
There was a loud bang, and the poet-level relic [telescope] was blown away as if a steam bomb was buried at the bottom. The mirror cracked after landing. Although it was not completely damaged, it was obviously affected.
Serious damage.
The fragments of the sage-level relic [Gate to the Past] flew out of the mirror like bullets, penetrated the chests of the two people, and continued to penetrate the trees outside the relic with undiminished momentum. After a hundred meters, there was a buzzing sound~
Nailed on a thick tree trunk.
Everyone who was maintaining the ceremony outside the ceremony suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood and fell down and fainted. The people who were observing the mirror just now also continued to retreat in more and more astonishment.
Everyone looked at each other, breathing heavily due to fear.
No one spoke immediately. Finally, the bald "vice president" with twelve rings said loudly:
"The opponent has strong time resistance. I'm afraid he has really discovered us! Escape first, the opponent may track us! Damn it, is this the Chosen One appearing? Come on, please inform us that Vista City has been suspended recently.
All necessary activities, go quickly!”
After briefly tidying up and recovering the bodies and relics, the group quickly moved deeper into the forest, leaving only the leaves swirling and falling in the evening breeze. This was another magical night.
At the same time, at the Accordion Hotel in the city, after talking to the two ladies about tonight's harvest, Shade, who was being sent downstairs by Miss Charlotte Bell, stood on the stairs and was suddenly startled.
【Outlander, you feel the prying eyes of time.】
[Due to the blessing of the tree father and the greatness of the divinity, you are exempt from this spying.]
"What's wrong?"
The young black-haired girl asked suspiciously when Shade stopped. Shade shook his head:
"I felt like someone was looking at me, but I looked away immediately because I was probably too tired. I've been really busy today."
After saying that, he supported Mia's butt on his shoulders again to prevent it from sliding down accidentally:
"Where did we talk just now? Oh, it was the card game at the Ayutthaya Players Championship. Do you want to try to play with me using the deck I used at that time? It was a really exciting game. I almost
The championship was lost at one point.”
The two chatted all the way downstairs. Miss Bell also wanted to send Shade out, but Shade refused:
"You should go back and rest quickly."
He waved his hand, walked into the street with street lights on, and quickly disappeared into the darkness around the corner.
Miss Winslet, who was watching him leave from the window, turned around and asked the red-haired girl on the sofa:
"So where exactly is he staying? If it's some other hotel in town, why don't you just let him stay with you?
Don't look at me like that, I'm just teasing him, I know he has a way to go back to Tobesk directly, otherwise I won't always smell Carina's perfume."
She leaned against the window sill, letting the cold autumn night wind blow her long hair:
"Shad said you wouldn't try that door casually, but I always feel like you won't strictly keep your promise."
Golden eyes looked at her with a smile.
"Why, now not only are my students coming to take care of me, but you are also coming to take care of me?"
The red-haired girl reading on the sofa asked, and the witch shook her head:
"Of course not, I just want to say that I had a lot of fun dancing tonight, so I want to give you a suggestion:
Your Excellency the Speaker will arrive tomorrow. She was the strongest time talent in the material world before the Godcaller appeared. You should know this, right?"
Of course the librarian lady knows:
"What do you want to say?"
She put down the book in her hand, and the gray-black-haired witch took off her glasses:
"Why don't you ask her for advice on how to use a tree hole briefly and safely? Don't think I'm arrogant, the witches have mastered many secrets that even you, a thirteen-ring warlock, don't know. Rely on the power of the council to suppress the curse.
, it is indeed possible for you to complete a time travel, but of course, it is not possible without you paying the price."
Miss Denister raised her head slightly:
"Flora, you know that I have known Adele for a long time, but it is not easy for Adele to use the power of your council to help me. How can you help me persuade her to come?"
Help me?"
PS: I finally wrote this foreshadowing. When I wrote that paragraph, I was preparing to use it in the chapter of the Time Chosen One, and finally I waited.
