The gray-black haired witch held the tea cup and organized her words:
"To be honest, I first developed a crush on Shade, probably because I felt a sense of security around him. This was before I discovered that his soul temperature was enough to fill the hole in my soul. He was very reliable. Although I didn't
I like to rely on others, but it is also good to have a reliable person by my side.
You all know a series of things that happened later. Unconsciously, my good feelings became higher and higher, and it became like this."
There was a knock on the door, and then Miss Bell came in carrying a saucer with a new teapot and some tea leaves on it. The witch wanted to make tea by herself.
She did not shy away from talking about this in front of her apprentices:
"We all agree that Shad is a nearly perfect man in every aspect."
"Except love life."
The red-haired girl pointed out, but Flora had a different opinion:
"I think it's better this way."
Seeing her friend raise her eyebrows, she explained:
"Don't you feel this way? We can't tie him down by ourselves. After getting to know him, I always feel like he will suddenly float away one day and never come back. Charlotte, you have this
A feeling?"
So the pale girl answered the teacher's question honestly:
"Mr. Hamilton is different from everyone we know. He always looks to the sky. Maybe one day the sky will respond to him."
Flora nodded in agreement:
"So if we don't add a few more ropes to tightly tie the soul that is always staring at the moon, he will fly to higher places one day."
The red-haired girl was thoughtful, and then chatted with Flora about what happened after the Vista Grove incident.
At about 7:20 that night, the "Red Moon Witch" who was still chatting and laughing with the witch suddenly frowned, then leaned on the armrest of the sofa and looked out the hotel window.
At the same time, Miss Olanold, who was discussing the divination results with Luvia and Bella on the ship, also looked directly upward from the cabin at the bottom of the ship. Her sight seemed to be able to see directly through several layers of the ship to the starry sky outside.
Megan and Audrey were in charge of the night watch on the ship tonight. The wind was blowing on the deck and Granny Cassandra was laughing and talking about the two sisters who had taken in [The Atonement's Lament] later than the ladies who belonged to the "Moon".
After a while, he looked up at the starry sky above his head.
With a soft bang~, Sylvia jumped directly to the deck. Almost at the same time, Miss Elisa's figure also walked out of the twisting air.
Everyone on the deck raised their heads together. The moon was no longer visible where March had been, and a huge black crack appeared there. And behind the crack, the blood-red color gradually turned from dots to extremely bright.
The blood-red light gradually illuminated Lake Ulen, and then illuminated the entire Vesta Woodland. When more and more aware local ring warlocks looked up at the stars, from the black crack
The bright red blood moon that emerged has dyed the entire starry sky red.
In the eyes of ordinary people, the starry sky may only turn slightly red, but in the eyes of ring warlocks, the night sky above their heads is gradually turning into a dim dark red as the cracks expand, and the twinkling stars all turn into bright red.
When the bright red stars shine in the dark sea of stars, even just a glance at this weird and terrifying scene will make people feel fear from the bottom of their hearts. And when the bright red blood moon behind the crack, together with the starry sky, dyes the earth
With that scarlet color on it, in this red world, some basic rules seem to be quietly changing.
The sound of footsteps came from the entrance to the cabin of the Glorious Messenger, and the big witches in the cabin walked out quickly. Luvia, Bella, and Miss Olanold appeared together. After leaving the cabin, she saw that the people on the deck seemed to have
Became a "bloody man".
After the purple eyes saw the blood-red moon, they felt a slight headache, and some strange memories suddenly came to mind. The earth turned into a real mass of flesh and blood, and the people bathing in the blood moon were howling.
The sound transformed into deformed pieces of flesh, and all entities oozed blood and merged with each other, and finally.
[Xia De mentioned this matter.]
The "other me" in her ears suddenly interrupted Luvia's thinking about that strange memory, and she also remembered what Shade said:
"The calamity of the moon - the crazy moon! The blood moon gave scarlet to the world, so everything turned into crazy flesh and blood in the distortion! Shade heard about it in the local black market, and it appeared in the Ximu Town area a hundred years ago.
After a similar incident (Chapter 2545), the astrologer Euclid also predicted in his notebook of 1750 that a 'Moon of Madness' would appear in the Vesta Grove area in 1760!"
Luvia's voice was clearly transmitted to the ears of everyone in this scarlet world, and the increasingly clear blood moon in the growing black crack in the night sky clearly looked like an eye.
Watch the whole world.
(Little Mia is running.)
"Good evening, Mr. Masked Man."
Stepping into the time transfer station, Shade said to the man standing behind the counter in a brisk tone. He thought that after the wonderful card game last time, the two of them could barely be considered strangers, but the masked Ban
Nat's tone was still cold:
"Usually people who come and go here don't call me 'mask man', it's too ridiculous."
"So what should I call you? Webmaster?"
"The owner is fine."
He carried the old kerosene lamp and walked around from behind the counter. Shade did not sit down this time:
"I'm ready to set off now. Let's make it clear first that I've already paid the Sands of Time as a reward for this short time journey, so you can't ask me to sign any more contracts."
Mask Man is okay with this:
"Then please go up the stairs. The door to 1819 where Anthony Winslet went has been opened for you. You can only stay there for a maximum of 24 hours. During this period, you can return to the place where you appeared and return to time.
Transfer station.”
But Shade shook his head:
"I have changed my mind. I will not go to the winter of 1819, but to the summer of 1821."
He gave the date of his last separation from Helena Carter in the rain:
"I have done some research these days and found that neither Anthony Winslet nor the childhood playmates he wanted to save have appeared in today's era, which means that the 'rescue plan' in the winter of 1819 must have failed.
I don’t know what happened at that time, and I don’t know what the clues are about the suspected childhood playmate Anthony Winslet found locally more than ten years ago, but I will definitely not go there again. I might as well choose a year and a half.
I'll try my luck at a later date."
The masked man hesitated for a moment, then nodded again:
"It's okay. But I suspect that your saying you wanted to find Anthony Winslet was an excuse from the beginning. You didn't intend to go to 1821, right?"
"Does my purpose have anything to do with whether you open the door?"
"It doesn't matter. Since you have paid the appropriate remuneration, you should get the service of the time transfer station. It is still valid for 24 hours. If you fail to return within 24 hours, I will not tell you what will happen.
In addition, try not to leave too many traces in the past time, after all, it does not belong to you."
"I see."
So the masked man led Shade to the stairs with an oil lamp. Shade glanced up and then stepped up the steps.
He had walked the stairs from the first floor to the second floor of the Accordion Hotel many times, but this time when he turned the corner and looked up, what he saw was not the scenery on the second floor, but endless darkness.
So he continued to move forward in the darkness, and the light from behind gradually extinguished, until the surroundings of the stairs became completely unknown. After he counted the number of steps that had exceeded the original 8, the stairs in front of him were still moving forward.
forward extension.
And when he counted to 80 in his heart, a bright light appeared higher up; when he continued to count to 99, the light in front of him engulfed him.
The sound of raindrops appeared almost instantly, and at this moment, Shade felt that he was completely soaked by the rainwater.
When the light dissipated, the alley scenery of Vista City on a rainy midsummer day appeared in front of them, and on the alley wall behind them, the dark square door gradually disappeared.
"The feeling just now was so stable, there was almost no sluggish feeling of traveling through time. Except that there is no white mist, this is almost the same as using the time key to travel through time."
The outsider had a new idea about the origin of the "time transfer station" function. Of course, he did not forget to take out his umbrella from his pocket, opened it, and walked a few steps forward to the entrance of the alley.
After carefully analyzing the street scene, there was no one on the street because of the rain. He recognized that this was probably the "Grey Brothers Street" in the northeastern old city of Vista City in 1854. When he entered the city from outside the city by carriage,
Passed by here.
"Why did you put me here?"
This place is not close to any place related to clues about "Anthony Winslet", but fortunately Shade is not here just to find Flora's uncle.
His eyes looked towards the direction outside the city, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up into a smile.
"Shad, if I calculated the time correctly, you have only left for half an hour, right?"
There was only the sound of rushing in the forest in the rain, and amidst this sound, Shade, who pressed his hand on the thick tree where the tree hole was located, turned around and saw the black man who was still wearing a sun hat on the rainy day.
The haired sorceress came towards him.
She didn't hold an umbrella, and all the raindrops automatically avoided her. Her black women's short boots did not leave any footprints in the mud, and she was still so elegant and gentle.
"Yes, I'm sorry I'm here again."
Although he said this, there was no apology on Shade's face, and of course there was no blame expression on Ms. Helena Carter's face. She smiled and asked:
"You're still just here to chat with me this time, or do you want me to help with something?"
