Under the protection of the Book of Doors, the two of them and the cat finally landed on the ground without any danger, and located Heimerdinger's location through Yodel magic. Nora led Tristana to find the location in the northern city of Zaun.
Heimerdinger in a mansion somewhere.
Heimerdinger's house is allocated free of charge by Frederic Institute of Technology. It is a typical three-story small house.
The mansion is located in the hinterland of the wealthy area of Beicheng District in Zu'an. Due to the subsidence disaster that occurred in Nancheng District some time ago, many wealthy people in Za'an who were willing to move to Beicheng District chose to move their families to Beicheng District.
It is even harder to find money in the core areas of Beicheng District, which has led to more powerful people choosing to settle in Beicheng District.
"Wow~ What a tall house! It must be very comfortable to sleep here~"
After sweeping through the neat bungalow with white bricks and red tiles, Youmi excitedly walked around on the ground and came to the door, tapping the door with her cat's paw.
"Heimerdinger? Heimerdinger? Open the door quickly! Your friend Yuumi is here~"
Nora and Tristana looked at each other and allowed the kitten to do what she wanted.
After waiting for less than a minute, the door creaked open, and Heimerdinger appeared in front of everyone wearing a wrench-patterned eucalyptus-style nightgown.
After dozing off, Heimerdinger invited everyone into the room.
"Well, I've been waiting for you all day, why did you come? I remember Nora's magic is very efficient?"
"Some important things happened on the road. I just came over after handling them. Heimerdinger, has Lester left already?"
Tristana took the initiative to answer the question, Nora secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and Yumi stared at the half piece of cream cake that Heimerdinger left on the glass coffee table.
After receiving approval from Heimerdinger's eyes, Yumi cheered and dove into the soft cake cream with her feet in the air. Under Tristana's gaze, Nora covered her eyes speechlessly.
She, the owner, really failed to discipline this little kitten from Bandle City.
"No, Lester has always been here with me. He is on the third floor. I will call him down now."
The somewhat sleepy Heimerdinger didn't mean to talk nonsense, and turned around and went upstairs with his short legs, leaving Nora and Tristana looking at each other.
"Why do I remember that Heimerdinger never slept before? Now he is wearing such cute pajamas?"
“Perhaps a new habit developed in the material realm?”
Tristana shrugged, somewhat indifferently.
"Just like Poppy who settled in Demacia likes to wield a hammer and shield, and Kled who settled in the Emerald Territory likes to ride Skaar to fight, the Yodles all have different living habits in the material realm."
Nora smiled and nodded.
"Anyway, it's a little strange for us two yordles, who are the least like yordles, to discuss the topic of yordles."
On the other side, Yuumi, who finally defeated the cunning cream cake, started to enjoy it.
"Wow~ Meow~ Good time~"
Heimerdinger did not keep the two of them waiting for too long. Heimerdinger took Lester, who was still asleep, down the spiral staircase. Nora soon noticed the white-faced owl standing on the man's shoulder. She felt something special about the white-faced owl.
The magical aura made Nora, who had never had a similar experience, very concerned, but now was not the time to talk about these things.
Turning his eyes, a tall man he had never seen before suddenly came into view.
He is about two meters tall, wearing a decent and exquisite black dress. The man's long hair is tied into a long ponytail hanging behind his back. Under the beauty bun is the man's smooth and full forehead. His three-dimensional and exquisite facial features cannot find any flaws. In addition, he has a pair of
With eyes as deep and mysterious as a starry night, Nora felt her heart pounding even though she was half a species apart. As for Yumi, the cat with a creamy face beside her, she had already fainted and fell to the ground.
His eyes paused on Nora, the master of Yumi whom he had never met before. Lester was also a little surprised. This was the first time he saw a female Yodel who was covered in fur. She had pale pink fur and a pair of blue big pants.
The yordle with eyes and furry ears dressed as a witch is full of girly cuteness, and seems to complement each other perfectly when paired with Yuumi.
Of course, acquaintance is acquaintance. On the surface, he and Nora are still strangers, so naturally he cannot show unusual familiarity.
Tristana pointed to Nora and the fainted cat.
"The witch of Bandle City, master of potions and explorer, Nora, this is Nora's cat, her name is Yumi, she is a cat lady."
He smiled politely at Nora, glanced at Yuumi who was in a coma, and then looked at Tristana.
"Tristana, long time no see. The last time we met was in Demacia, right? Bandle City has been relatively peaceful recently?"
After taking a look at the mechanical disaster Heimerdinger and the potion disaster witch Nora who left Bandle City, Tristana sighed, at least half of the threat was gone now.
"If you don't count some internal attacks, yes, Bandle City is relatively peaceful, little Laini.
To be honest, it feels quite strange to have an immortal human friend like you. I have made some human friends before, and it feels really bad to stand in front of a tombstone to say goodbye to my friends."
"Sit down, guys. It's a rare occasion to get together. I'll make you a cup of tea~ This is a new skill I've learned."
After struggling for a long time, Heimerdinger was no longer sleepy. For yordles, sleep is just an unnecessary lifestyle habit, but it does not mean that they will really feel sleepy.
"What kind of tea do you want to drink? I have scented tea, green tea, black tea, and a new popular drink among humans. This drink is made from ground coffee beans. It is troublesome to make, but it is a good overnight drink."
"Flower tea, I still like the smell of flowers."
"Heimerdinger, just give me a glass of water."
Hearing the delicious food, Yumi opened her eyes suddenly.
"I want to drink coffee~coffee~"
"Okay, your coffee, Lester, how about you?"
Heimerdinger looked at Lester, but Lester shook his head.
"Same as Tristana, just give me a glass of water, no need to bother."
"Okay, you guys chat first."
Sitting down around the coffee table again, seeing Nora being strangely silent, Tristana had no choice but to continue to liven up the atmosphere.
"How long do you plan to stay in Bandle City this time?"
"This hasn't been decided yet... Tristana, can I ask what is the difference between the time speed in the material realm and the time speed in Bandle City? I heard that some humans mistakenly entered Bandle City, and when they came out,
Just become an old man?"
"As for the time issue, I think Nora can explain it more easily than me... Nora? Nora?"
Nora, who was in a daze, was suddenly woken up by Tristana. The witch looked at Lester, pushed up her glasses, and explained with some embarrassment.
"Time is a variable factor in Bandle City. The speed of passage depends on the size of the time fluctuation. If you are conducting normal activities in an area without time fluctuation in Bandle City, the time will be about one to one and a half.
If you accidentally enter some strange space, or enter an area where time fluctuates greatly, it is not impossible that the time ratio reaches one to five. By the time you spend a year in Bandle City, five years may have passed in the outside world.
Year."
"So that's it... Are there many areas where time fluctuates violently in Bandle City?"
"Not much. Most areas of Bandle City have experienced reliable magic stabilization. The world ratio will not be too outrageous. Only the magic turbulence area deep in Bandle Forest or the hidden realm of Bandle City will appear.
A space with abnormal time..."
While he was talking, Heimerdinger had already brought a tray to the coffee table, serving Nora scented tea, Yumi brought coffee, Tristana and Lester brought water, and Heimerdinger made some for himself.
Have a cup of green tea and sit down on the small sofa.
Noticing Lester, who was at least two heights taller than everyone else, sitting cross-legged on the ground, Heimerdinger spoke.
"Sorry, this set of furniture was customized according to my height. I forgot to prepare some furniture that normal humans can use. Only the large bed in the guest bedroom has never been changed."
Lester shook his head.
"It doesn't matter. Heimerdinger, aren't you going to go back to Bandle City to have a look this time?"
"No, Zaun needs manpower to rebuild. Compared to working behind closed doors in Bandle City, I think I can be more effective here."
Seeing that Heimerdinger seemed to have forgotten the emerald collar he introduced, Leicester had no intention of reminding him. Instead, he changed the subject and hugged Roy, who was napping on his shoulder.
"Nora, I want you to help me find out what is going on with my Vastaya companions now. Will taking the potion help to awaken consciousness?"
Nora, who was already interested in the white-faced owl, put down her tea cup, pushed up her glasses and stood up, saying seriously.
"I need to use magic to observe before I can make a judgment. In addition, please tell me carefully what happened to this vastaya. I seem to feel an evil aura in her body."
After explaining Roy's situation before falling asleep to Nora, Lester comforted Roy who was a little scared after waking up, but did not disturb Nora who was using Yodel magic.
Through the arcane talent given to him by the world rune fragments, Lester secretly observed Nora who was casting the spell.
He discovered that Yodel magic is different from natural magic, rune magic, arcane magic and elemental magic in the material realm.
Yodel magic is more like a kind of energy mobilization from scratch, from zero to one. This sudden energy does not belong to the four basic elements in the material realm, nor is it bound by the axioms of elements. If you have to fight
For example, this power is more like the power of law that makes all wishes come true, the miraculous energy of 'I am thinking'.
This is the unique magical talent of the Yodels born in Bandle City. Its unprecedented specialness means that he cannot practice and control Yodel magic in any way.
He has no connection with Bandle City from his innate origin, so naturally he cannot mobilize the miraculous power belonging to Bandle City.
"So that's the case. No wonder I haven't been able to awaken the individual consciousness... If my judgment is not wrong, your vastaya companion should have been under some kind of evil soul-sealing curse."
When the light of magic dissipated, Nora said something that shocked Lester.
"Soul-Sealing Curse?"
"Yes, the Soul-Sealing Curse. In fact, the Soul-Sealing Curse is a taboo spell recorded in the ancient Shurima Empire books. It is specially used to punish some rebels of the Shurima royal family. The consciousness and soul of the person who is cursed will be
Being sealed in the curse, at the same time, the newly born evil soul will gradually grow under the nourishment of the original soul. When the evil soul grows to the point where it can completely devour the soul, the soul-sealing curse will be lifted on its own.
Before the evil soul reaches its perfect form, unless the caster personally undoes the spell, the cursed person will not be able to wake up at all. Forcibly awakening the cursed person with external force will damage the soul of the cursed person, and at least the relatives will not recognize the spiritual wisdom.
Damage, or worse, his temperament will change drastically, the evil spirit will bite him back, and he will die on the spot... At least I have not seen any other ways to break the curse in Shurima's ancient magic books."
Seeing Lester's face looking a little ugly, Nora sighed.
"I didn't expect that there is an evil mage in this world who knows the Soul-Sealing Curse.
Lester, I have never really seen a person who was cursed before, so this is also my guess. I am not 100% sure that this is the soul-sealing curse. You, don't be too sad. What is the specific situation?
We have to wait until I return to Bandle City to brew a few bottles of magic potion to find out. Although there is no record of how to break the curse, the classics do record some potion formulas that slow down the growth of evil spirits..."
For some reason, Lester instantly thought of the Thousand-Faced Enchantress hiding in a corner of the Immortal Fortress. If there is anyone on the Valoran continent who is proficient in all kinds of ancient magic and forbidden magic, it is probably LeBlanc, and LeBlanc
Fran naturally had a special intention in doing this. After all, the pale witch never did anything meaningless.
Speaking of which, Roy's plan to use magic to sleep and wait for her to appear was handled by Sheena. Leicester knew that there was no way that Sheena would join forces with LeBlanc to betray him, otherwise he would have been alone now.
Then it can only be that LeBlanc used a certain fake person to cooperate with the Emerald Territory on behalf of the Black Rose forces, and did something wrong when helping Loy.
The Soul-Sealing Curse is an ancient Shurima forbidden spell that has been lost for thousands of years. Not to mention that Sheena doesn't recognize it, there are probably very few people in the Black Rose who know the origin of this spell.
"Anyway, thank you, Master Nora."
Shaking her head, Nora returned to her seat and sat down.
"You're welcome, it just so happens that I can try out the ancient Shurima potion to see if it works. Lester, you are Lulu's good friend, and naturally you are also my good friend. Just call me Nora."
"Nora, call me little Laini. I like the name Lulu gave me very much."
Lester smiled reluctantly, but Nora became even more worried.
"Little Laini, your friend is fine now. I can see that the caster deliberately slowed down the intensity of the spell... Don't be sad. I should take out the classics and read them again. Maybe I can find the solution.
Curse method, you must know that Bandle City is a place full of miracles, maybe we can find new miracles."
When she heard this, Tristana held the kitten that was frightened by the soul-sealing curse and looked at Lester with some worry.
"Lester, do you know who cast the spell on your friend? If that doesn't work, I will go with you to find the caster and beat him until the spell is lifted!"
"I am coming too!"
Heimerdinger pulled out a wrench from somewhere, and rolled up his sleeves angrily.
"Tristana, Heimerdinger, thank you."
The man sighed and hugged the somewhat cute white-faced owl tightly.
If Bandle City can't lift the soul-sealing curse, I'm afraid I have to go to the Immortal Fortress.
