Chapter 3 The Origin of the Fragments (ask for a guaranteed monthly ticket at the beginning of the month)
Mr. K did not put forward any requirements for Lumian's trip to Feneport. He just repeatedly told him that if he encounters difficulties, he can use that finger at any time. As long as he is not in a special environment, this member of the "Aurora Society"
Divine envoys can sense the connection between flesh and blood and provide assistance in the shortest possible time.
The sensing distance is quite far, and it is indeed a part of my body... I don't know if the "witches" can complete the curse after getting this finger... Lumian said goodbye to Mr. K with his thoughts wandering.
Leaving the off-white luxurious house at 19 Sher Street.
............
Chaillot, the gate of the manor surrounded by grapevines and vines.
Franka saw Brown Solon, whose long orange-red hair hung down like a waterfall.
The witch smiled sarcastically: "I heard that your lover died?"
"Did you just drink the 'provocateur' potion?" Franka sneered at the other party without showing any signs of weakness. "Are the members of the Sauron family born with some 'provocateur' traits?"
Without waiting for Browns to respond, Franka passed her and whispered as she passed by, "Yes, Gardner Martin is indeed dead. I killed him with my own hands."
Brown's pupils dilated, and she turned her head in surprise, looking at Franka's profile. She saw this newly joined witch with a slight smile on her face, but her eyes were deep and dark. There was a feeling that was both joyful and painful, and deep.
It feels fierce.
Franka wanted to add another sentence, "I also heard the screams of your ancestors when they were killed", but this would expose the fact that she possesses a large amount of secret information and occult knowledge that does not belong to her level, which would lead to
The Witch Cult was suspicious and had to give up this plan. As they moved forward, they said with a smile: "Then I found the item from Gardner Martin and his collaborators that they smuggled into Trier from the underground.
."
"Found it, what is it?" Browns didn't expect Franca to be able to complete this task. She was surprised and a little jealous for a moment.
Franka didn't hide it, this was her purpose of coming to see Clarice, the "Black Witch".
She took out the dark statue with the hair facing the opposite direction from the orthodox one, and waved it in front of Browns.
Browns' expression instantly froze, as if she had seen something extremely terrifying.
"It, how could it, how could it appear..." The voice of the "Happiness Witch" gradually lowered, with unconcealable shock hidden in her tone.
"Do you know what it is?" Franka took the opportunity to ask.
Browns woke up with a start and said with twinkling eyes: "My teacher will tell you."
Franka didn't ask further questions and changed the subject with a smile: "Why does your teacher call herself the 'Black Witch'? Don't normal people think that witch is a derogatory term?"
"Everyone has different aesthetics. Some like to call themselves saints, while others think witches are cool and have a unique, non-vulgar temperament." Browns said she is more inclined to the latter.
Men are still teenagers until they die, and they all have too much self-awareness, right? Even the men they once were... Franka thought about it seriously and found that if she was called a so-and-so witch, while she would be embarrassed, she would probably feel...
It was strangely proud, but if it were a certain saint, she would definitely have goosebumps all over her body, and she would just want to dig a hole with her toes and bury herself in it.
Not long after, Franka saw the "Black Witch" in the round pavilion located among grape trees and a large number of vines.
Clarice's dark gray eyes, with a touch of sadness, swept across Franka's face and the black "Original Witch" statue in her hand.
Her eyes stayed on the latter for a few seconds and she said, "Did you get this from the 'Iron-Blooded Cross'?"
"Yes." Franka took the initiative to talk about what happened last night.
She started from the time when she failed to track down the Carbonari members, and continued until she and Anthony Reed were staying in Apartment 601, No. 3, White Coat Street, but were affected by the mutation of the "Original Witch" statue and the ancient silver mirror.
, strangely entered the sealed Fourth Age Trier.
She no longer concealed the existence of the ancient silver mirror, but said that she had accidentally obtained it from the ground a few months ago, and this time it actually played a certain role, and then sank into the ground and disappeared without a trace.
This is all true, every sentence is fact.
"The Black Witch" Clarice interrupted Franka's story and asked thoughtfully: "You met Gardner Martin as soon as you entered?"
Although she didn't see it with her own eyes, she seemed to have foreseen the development.
"Yes, there is also the Carbonari member. He is General Philip who faked his death. This strange statue was found from him." Franka answered truthfully, "Anthony and I almost died in Gardner at that time.
With Philip on his hands, luckily, Charles and Jenna also came in for no apparent reason and were hiding nearby."
She briefly talked about the battle and deliberately pointed Jenna's ability towards the "vampire" direction.
After listening for a while, the "Black Witch" raised her right hand and gently stroked her face: "You said that there is an area with chaotic weather in the wilderness in the distance. In that area, there is a giant figure that was swept away by hurricanes and dense fog.
Surrounded by fog?"
"Yes, we heard his roar, and almost lost control. Fortunately, we entered the city shrouded in gray fog in time, and the movement outside was very blurry." Franka did not expect that the "Black Witch" actually cared about that person very much.
Giant things.
Clarisse listened quietly and sighed softly, feeling a little sad, a little lost, and a little indescribable relief, which was particularly pitiful.
Browns looked at the teacher from the side with a bit of doubt in her expression, as if she didn't understand why the "Black Witch" had such a reaction.
Franka was puzzled at first, but Huo Ran's heart suddenly moved: Browns is from the Sauron family, so wouldn't the "Black Witch" be the same?
Are they part of the branch of the Sauron family that defected to the Witch Sect?
But the "Black Witch"'s hair color and eye color are not like those of the orthodox Sauron family members.
If they are all from the Sauron family, is it possible that the "Black Witch" is a relative of Browns, or even her father or mother, so Browns was raised to be like this?
Did the "Black Witch" feel so emotional after hearing about the current situation of Fomunda Sauron and understanding the plot of the "Iron-Blooded Cross"?
As her thoughts flashed, Franka continued to talk about the battle between the four of her and Gardner in the mirror, and finally took out the dark "Fragment of the Mirror World": "Your Excellency, Black Witch, what is this? Also,
What is this statue?"
"Black Witch" Clarice looked at the "Mirror World Fragments" and the black "Original Witch" statue and said: "In conventional mysticism, the mirror world is not a real world, it belongs to the 'door'
A collection of concepts, connected to mirrors and alien spaces, but many members of our Witch Cult know that in some special places, based on some unique reasons, there are a few monsters.
What you encounter is one of the mirror worlds in real space, and this is a fragment of that world..."
She gave an overview of the "Fragments of the Mirror World" that Franka already knew about, and finally said: "This was supposed to be handed over to me in exchange for a reward, but according to your description, there are many 'Mirror People' underground.
Already mixed into Trier, this fragment can help you track them, find them, clear them out, and you can keep them for a while until the mission is completed.
"Well, this is your next task, to clean up the 'Men in the Mirror' in Trier and collect similar fragments that may exist on them."
The origin and function are the same as what Ms. "Magician" said. It seems that Clarice didn't lie to me... Hey, my next mission is in Trier. I can't follow Charles to Feneport to find the "Bard"
They... At the critical moment, you can let him take me to "teleport" there and provide help... Franka breathed out secretly and said: "Yes, Your Excellency, 'The Black Witch'."
"The Black Witch" then said: "This statue comes from one of those special mirror worlds.
"What we believe in is the original in reality. Those 'people in the mirror' believe in the original in the mirror, but that is actually just a projection of the original in the mirror."
It’s as I guessed… The projection of the “Original Witch” in the mirror mutated and she gained her own will, causing her to be in a bad state? Or, did Clarisse not tell the whole truth? Franka was in “The Dark”
"The Witch" signaled and handed the special statue to the other party.
Clarice nodded lightly and said: "You have completed the Iron Blood Cross mission better than I expected. You have taken back this special statue. What reward do you want?"
Franka did not hesitate and said directly: "Painful potion formula, or a magical item that allows me to travel through the spirit world."
"The Black Witch" showed a less obvious smile: "This time I will give you the 'Painful' potion formula first. After you complete the next task, you can then choose a magical item with the ability to 'travel through the spirit world'.
."
It means that my contribution this time cannot be exchanged for teleportation items, but it is worth more than the "Pain Witch" formula. I can save part of it and exchange it together when I get other contributions later? Franka thought briefly and said
:"good."
"The Black Witch" Clarisse immediately raised her right hand and wiped it in the void.
Franka suddenly saw the edge of the circular pavilion, a surface of water, with a large number of Hermetic words as dark as ink outlined:
‘Pain’ Potion Recipe:
"Sequence:5;
“Main materials: the head of a flower-faced bat, the gallbladder of a two-tailed black snake;
"Supplementary materials: 30 ml of blood from a painted bat, 50 ml of seriously ill human blood, the tail tip of a two-tailed black snake, 10 drops of Eucalyptus essential oil;
"Ritual: Without using a double, be burned on the stake for a quarter of an hour and survive without going crazy."
Hiss... It hurts just to read the description... Franka couldn't help but shrink her neck.
After she wrote down the potion formula, she left the manor accompanied by Browns.
"The Black Witch" Clarice looked at her back quietly and took out an item from the hidden pocket of the black palace dress.
It was a mirror fragment with a dark surface.
It is very similar to the "Mirror World Fragment" in Franka's hand, except for the irregular fractures on the edge.
