Probably because they ran out of luck last night, Shade and Dorothy's classes were temporarily canceled on Saturday night. Dorothy was called home by her father, Professor Louisa, to talk about "Hamilton's Detective Stories"
", this is Professor Louisa's recognition of her daughter.
Lesia could not come to see Shad without her father noticing for the time being, so she had a break on Saturday. The princess could also take advantage of this time to think about how to help Shad obtain the [Sleeping] Spirit Rune.
This time, Her Royal Highness the Princess and the female writer vowed to help Sha De.
On Sunday morning, Shade went to the Tobesk train station to see off Captain Rades, who was heading to the border.
As an officer, the captain did not have to sit in the second-class carriage with other soldiers rushing to the border. On the platform, the captain, wearing a Royal Army uniform, held Shade's hand in the bustling crowd and thanked him again.
Thanks to Shade for saving him from frustration, and thanks to Shade for everything he has done.
For the middle-aged Captain Rades, this train station can be regarded as an important node that changed his life. After being captured, he returned to Tobesk in frustration and assisted Shade in arresting child trafficking criminals outside the station.
, we will start our journey again here today.
He looked around at his colleagues who were saying goodbye to their relatives, the porters at the station, and the crowds who came to see him off, and he sighed for a moment.
"However, I still don't know where the windy path is?"
Shade asked.
The train whistle sounded and it was about to depart. Citizens who went to the station to see off their relatives and friends were saying their final goodbyes to the soldiers who were about to leave. The surroundings were very noisy, and Shade also shook hands with the captain for the final time.
"The Windy Trail" is the area where the captain's unit is stationed, and it can be regarded as the real border. However, such a small place is not marked on the map, so Shade only knows that it is the northern foothills of Sikal Mountain.
The captain picked up his black suitcase and prepared to enter the car. The soldiers who had already boarded the car stuck their heads out of the car window, either waving or kissing passionately with the beautiful girl who was seeing him off.
"The windy path, do you know the mountain city of Fort Midhill?"
The captain asked with a smile, his voice not very clear amidst the surrounding noise and whistles.
White steam mist emerged from under the steam locomotive, blurring the sight of Shade and the captain. Shade nodded:
"of course I know."
"The Windy Trail is not far from Fort Midhill. To be precise, we also serve as part of Fort Midhill's defense force."
He smiled and waved to Shade. With the harsh sound of metal twisting, gear rotation, and pistons pushing and pulling, the metal car door closed, completely blocking Shade from Captain Rades.
The gush of steam made the platform packed with people seeing off the farewell feel extremely hot and humid. Amidst the shouts of farewell and blessings, the huge roar and the sound of the departure bell, white steam was spewed into the misty sky.
The metal wheels started moving slowly but firmly, and the linked transmission rods and potential energy drove the carriage to move slowly.
The rumbling sound became louder and louder, the whistle and the car went away together, the wind passed by Shade's side, until finally there was nothing on the track. In the distance, you can vaguely see the white pigeons being released, which is the symbol of war.
The Peace Church is seeing off the soldiers, and the Peace Church is keen on such activities.
A few pigeons that had not flown far flew back to the platform after the people around to see them off gradually dispersed, pecking at the food on the ground. Shade also put his hands in his pockets and prepared to go home. He also planned to go there in the afternoon.
Go to Coldwater Port to see if you have acquired coins, and then visit Mr. Edmond who guards the lighthouse, talk about legends from various parts of the Old World, and prepare for the next drop of divinity.
"However, Captain Rades also went to Fort Midhill."
He was thinking:
"Priest Augustus and Miss Black also went there. Is this a hint?"
There was nothing much gained in Coldwater Port on Sunday afternoon. It was not easy to acquire monetary relics. Although Mr. Edmund came up with all kinds of weird legends, there were so many that Shade couldn't tell which one they were.
It may be related to divinity.
However, this old gentleman from the Guiding Light Monastery was very interested in the rumors of Miss Feliana appearing in the Tobesk area, and pulled Shade to inquire about relevant information:
"When I saw the letter from old John, I suspected that he hadn't woken up yet."
The old man said with a smile, and he and Shade looked at the sea view in the distance at the top of the lighthouse. The arrival of autumn did not seem to have much impact on the ocean. After the Coldwater Harbor Shadow Incident, although there were many murloc attacks on the beach
A little bit quieter, but the city itself has also become a lot more peaceful.
"When I went to find Father John to buy ceremony materials, he didn't ask me any relevant questions."
"You Correspondence Ring Magicians from Tobesk will be the first to be suspected by the academy and the church. John just doesn't want to get into trouble. However, Miss Myrna Feliana, the witch of the fifth era, actually appears in contemporary times. Although the information
Too much has been lost, making it impossible for us to explore the mysteries of the extraordinary system of the Fifth Age, but were people in the previous era able to travel to future events?"
The old man touched his chin, while Shade held the cat that he had finally brought to the beach to breathe fresh air.
"Did the witch find a way to reverse the relic [Key to Time]?"
Mr. Edmond said suspiciously.
"Do you think this has something to do with the Time Key?"
Shade smiled.
"Yes, this is also the current mainstream view. What is the relationship between Philiana and the time key?"
Mr. Edmond said, and in some respects, this view is actually correct.
After returning home from Coldwater Port, Shade did not go out again, but concentrated on waiting until midnight and early morning to unlock the new key to the Fifth Era 3014.
Although the waiting time for the key actually came on Saturday evening, Shade decided to wait until midnight. This was not only to pursue a sense of ritual, but also to complete the task of the key, just in time to get the daily gift in the gift box.
After all, even though most of those gifts are useless, drawing the gifts itself is one of the few pleasures that foreigners have in this era.
【Your Friday night】
"one."
With laughter in his ears, he added.
On the clock in the corner of the living room, the three hands moved towards the top at the same time. The lights were turned on in the living room on the second floor of No. 6 St. Teresa Square. Shade, who was sitting on the sofa with a book, put down the Potions textbook in his hand. This disturbed him.
Mia was sleeping on the sofa, leaning on his legs.
By the time the sleepy cat stood up, Shade had already arrived at the bedroom door with the key that Miss Carina gave him for free:
"Will you meet Miss Feliana this time?"
Before reciting the incantation, he thought in his mind.
【So what do you think?】
"You shouldn't be so lucky, right?"
Shade held the key and pointed it at the keyhole, silently reciting three numbers in his mind, and the clock in the corner rang the first bell at twelve o'clock at midnight.
"May the World Tree protect me in time."
Because he didn't know where this adventure would be, Shade still didn't plan to take the useless Mia cat with him. If this time it was a dangerous place like the Terror Fortress, he was worried that the cat would be taken away by him as soon as he stepped out of the white mist.
Will be frightened to death.
"Meow~"
The small cat was lying on the sofa, but actually had no intention of following Shade out of the house. It stared with wide eyes as Shade inserted the key into the keyhole, and then entered the white mist behind the door.
The cat yawned and squirmed on the sofa to find a more comfortable place. It had seen Shade walk into the strange white fog door many times, so it was not curious. It was just curious why Shade came out of the door every time.
When they come back from that door, they all look very sad.
Cats are never sad.
【Outlander, you have stepped into the "corridor of time".】
[Message from the ancient god "Father of the Infinite Tree":]
[Spring of 3014 in the Fifth Age, Eastern Continent, Night Manor.]
[Event: The Vampire God’s Reception.]
【Duration thirty minutes (1/3).】
"After visiting the Southern Continent - Hope Town, the Western Continent - Forest of Thousand Trees, the Northern Continent - Terror Castle, we finally arrived at the Eastern Continent."
Shade in the white mist was not surprised by this, but he still frowned, because the "Vampire God" seemed to have another very well-known name:
"When I meet an acquaintance this time, do I mean I'm acquainted with God?"
【You have obtained additional information.】
[The figure of the father of the infinite tree is watching you.]
[The ancient god of time gives you a test.]
[Participate in the drinking party of "Vampire Duke Loal" with mortals until the end of the drinking party. 】
[The Father of the Infinite Tree will give you rewards: Thaumaturgy-Silent Moonlight, and a true message-Elf.]
"I can still understand that time and space are inseparable, but is it too exaggerated for the ancient god of time to give me the magic of the moon? Also, the goal this time is to participate in the god's cocktail party and let the cocktail party end, on three occasions
If the reception fails to end before the end of ten minutes, does it mean that my mission has failed?"
Xia De thought in his mind, but he had no idea about "real information" and only regarded it as expanding his knowledge.
The most critical of the above information is "Vampire Duke Loair". Shade's first spell [Echo of Blood] in the strict sense was obtained by coming into contact with the statue of this old god.
Therefore, after selling the information about the statue to Miss Carina, Shade also searched for information about this god, so he was not as clueless as the previous times.
Vampire Duke Loel is also known as the "Blesser of Alien-Vampires" or the "Vampire God". This is an evil god, and there is clear evidence that this god existed until the Sixth Age.
time, and still has not left. But unlike the [Lord of the Blood Feast] who is also an evil god, this blood-sucking god is not that evil.
This is somewhat similar to the difference between "serial killers" and "ordinary murderers". Although this metaphor is not appropriate, at least even if you really meet "Vampire Duke Loyle" in the material world, you will not necessarily die.
