"Although I also think that what Miss Bell saw might be our biggest enemy this time, but the premise is that nothing more terrifying will appear in this woodland."
She shook her head violently, and the witch asked Shade, who was slowly scratching the cat's head;
"Speaking of which, your essence is about to run out."
She pointed to the almost empty bottle on the coffee table:
"Since it is a relic derivative, the essence in this bottle should be replenished, right? What needs to be done? Can we help? This bottle is very important for the current operation. Let's replenish it before the next enemy appears.
."
"She" chuckled in his ear, and Xia De subconsciously turned his head:
"I don't need your help with this. I will figure it out myself when I get home."
"Xia De, do you still want to be polite to us at this time?"
So Miss Winslet said angrily, but the red-haired girl, who probably guessed something, did not speak, but looked at Shade with the same pretense of curiosity.
Shade opened his mouth, and finally had to say:
"This bottle can spontaneously transform the 'desire' around it into perfume, and, well, currently I feel that lust has the best effect."
The witch's face turned red immediately. No matter how bold she was, she was embarrassed to say "I'll help you" at this time.
Because of the chaos in the room that morning, Shade did not visit the old professor Margaret mentioned in the end. Miss Bell was still recovering from her injuries, and Shade also had to clean up the mess in the room, while the two ladies
Ask the parliament and college for relevant information respectively.
And although they did not leave the hotel, the girls responsible for collecting information in the city were still working.
Before lunch, a small piece of news came. Although the news that the Bronte family was being hunted by the church was not published, it had already spread throughout the city, and York Bronte was considered to be responsible for this incident.
The core figure, there are even rumors that he has been shot dead.
Therefore, Miss Linda Bennet, the third daughter of the Bennet family, tried to commit suicide at home that morning. She adopted the method of hanging, but fortunately, this kind of wealthy daughter had no experience of committing suicide, so she promptly
He was rescued by the maid at home.
This kind of secret thing should not have been spread outside, but after being rescued by the maid, Mrs. Bennet rushed home and cursed her daughter on the hospital bed, so Miss Bennet ran to the door of her mansion.
From the top of the building, he jumped down in the presence of at least ten passers-by.
Although she was lucky enough to hang on a tree in the courtyard with only minor scratches and soft tissue contusions, this astonishing scene was still regarded as the second news besides the big news of the Bronte family and was spread everywhere.
In a small city like this, things like "martyrdom for love" should have become a fresh topic for several weeks. However, because the Bronte family's incident is too shocking, Miss Bennet's incident is destined to be just one
It can become a footnote to this autumn's big news.
Of course, some people may say that Miss Linda Bennet is a very loyal person in love, but at least Miss Winslet still thinks she is a silly girl.
"Flora, I remember you told me that young girls are always easily deceived by men who look handsome and mysterious. Miss Bennet is a good example."
The red-haired girl at the dining table said this. Just as the witch was about to nod, she immediately realized that she was talking about herself:
"Our situation is different."
She took the knife and fork and glanced at Shade:
"Miss Linda Bennet fell in love with a man she didn't know at all, but haven't Carina and the princesses of the two countries helped verify Shade's safety?"
She always has a very magical way of thinking about some things, but at least what she says does make sense.
The gloomy sky began to drizzle again in the afternoon, but the rain was so light that Miss Owl thought she wouldn't have to worry about getting her feathers wet when she flew out like this.
The search and investigation of the Bronte family was carried out by the church. What Shade wanted to do in the afternoon was to meet the old professor who participated in the construction of the Golden Concert Hall.
Although Miss Owl wanted to go with Shade, she took the initiative to stay and take care of her apprentice:
"You two go, I'm still worried about Charlotte's condition. Although she is fine after examination, I think I can't leave her today."
"Would you like to try that sage-level relic [Soul Gem]?"
Shade took the initiative to propose, but was immediately rejected. The Great Witch of Death is a person who is "very cautious" about relics. She will never use relics when she can avoid using them.
So that afternoon, it was Shade and Miss Danister who went out together. When they walked out of the hotel with an umbrella, Shade looked back at the window upstairs worriedly. He was also a little worried about Miss Bell.
Condition.
After they boarded the carriage, the red-haired girl said:
"Flora already suspects that you are the Godcaller."
"Aren't you also doubting it?"
Shade asked, and the eighteen-year-old girl laughed:
"You know? I used to sit alone in the college library, wondering how you used to deceive so many girls without causing a war between them. Now I almost understand that they have some
Too unreserved."
"Is this a compliment from you?"
She narrowed her eyes because of her smile:
"Xia De, don't use this method against me."
"Sorry, what?"
he asked with a smile.
"Okay, I have to admit that some things in this world are just so unreasonable."
The professor Margaret investigated, Quinto, who has retired from the Tower Gate Bridge School of History, currently lives with his wife in an apartment in the southeast of Vista City. Their children all work in Willondale.
Retired history professors have generous pensions, so they can spend their remaining years in this city surrounded by forests.
Although today is Sunday, Professor Quinto was unfortunately not at home when Shade and Miss Denister came to visit. Of course, this was also the reason why their visit was not scheduled in advance.
Fortunately, Professor Quinto's wife was still at home. When she heard that the two were researchers from Tobesk, she asked them to go to the Golden Concert Hall to find Professor Quinto:
"After he retired, he still wanted to find something to do for himself, and he is still serving as a nominal researcher at the museum. He went to the museum at the Golden Concert Hall early in the morning, and he should still be there now."
Therefore, the two had to go back the same way, but fortunately they had many topics to talk about on the way. Speaking of which, although it had been nearly a month since Shade arrived in the local area, this was the first time he entered the museum of the Golden Concert Hall.
Of course, the museum requires tickets, but fortunately, compared with the tickets for the performance hall, the price of the museum tickets is not high. Although Shade wanted to take a walk in the museum, he still remembered the most important thing.
The arrows that the elf girl needed were unearthed from the ancient temple of the Tree Father. In addition, in the morning I learned about the terrible things that may exist locally, so it becomes particularly important to know the original appearance of this temple.
Of course, it is impossible for the Zhengshen Church not to know that the Golden Music Hall was originally an ancient temple. But unfortunately, it seems that this temple belongs to the "Father of the Infinite Tree", which is a secret that only the elf girl knows, so the church's investigation has not yet reached Kuntu.
On the professor's body.
Margaret provided certificates for Shade to prove that Shade was a young scholar visiting Willendale from Tobesk, and the eighteen-year-old Miss Danister was too young to serve as Shade's "
The identities of "student" and "assistant" are reversed at least this afternoon.
They easily met Professor Quinto. This old professor looked even older than Professor Manning. When he met Shade and the others, he smiled and said that current historical research requires them to be like this.
Many young people participated.
When Shade explained the purpose of his visit and mentioned that the original site of the Golden Music Hall was an ancient temple, Professor Quinto held a teacup in the museum's reception room with an expression reminiscing about the past:
"That was nearly half a century ago. I was still very young at that time, as young as your students. I was lucky enough to follow my mentor who had been dead for thirty years to the then Ximu Town.
The city at that time was not so big, let alone so prosperous. The hotel where we stayed in the town was, sorry, the elderly always like to talk about things from the past, let’s get back to the topic.”
He looked around the room:
"I need to point out that the area of today's Golden Concert Hall is larger than that of the temple back then. The buildings around the concert hall were built from outside the temple. The temple back then was centered on the main hall of the current music hall.
Roughly square in shape.
When I came here with my mentor and others, construction was already in progress. The development of cameras at that time was still quite backward, so there were no photos of the original appearance of the temple, but the construction team did have a copy of the temple from that time.
The architectural sketch is in the museum, you can go and see it for yourself later."
Shade motioned to the "assistant" on the side to record these contents, who was holding a notebook and pen.
"So Professor, did you and your instructors determine which god this temple belongs to during the inspection?"
The old professor shook his head regretfully:
"No, we just found a lot of 'tree'-themed runes and murals, so this is probably a niche belief in the ancient Vesta Woodlands, representing the worship of forests and nature, but considering the size of the temple
It is quite large, so there should be a large settlement in the area centered on ancient Ximu Town, and many ancient ruins excavated locally should be related to that settlement.
You should understand that people who live near the mountains believe in the mountains, and people who live near the sea believe in the sea. This is a very common nature worship."
