Time was still suspended, and the broken leg became inactive in the air and stopped there. Shade raised his hand to control a drop of blood and then performed his own magic:
"Echo of Blood!"
More than ten seconds later, Shade jumped from the roof and blocked the man whose face was burned on the "Golden Music Avenue" where pedestrians were still.
This is a middle-aged man who looks to be in his forties. He is shorter than Shade and has a medium build. His clothes are in tatters and his origin cannot be identified. His right leg has returned to normal at this time, but under the sunlight
When he saw him next, Shade felt more and more that he didn't look like a human being.
This does not refer to the other party's appearance, but to the other party's mental state. The ferocious face and crazy expression all indicate that this is a madman. The traces of chaotic elements represent that the ring warlock is out of control, and Shade does not know that he is
After what she has experienced in the past, I just hope that the missing Miss Denister will not become like this.
Everyone on the street was frozen in time and space. Shade wanted to talk to the other party. In theory, a five-ring warlock like the other party should not be able to master this level of time magic.
But the moment he saw Shad again, the stranger launched another brazen attack. He didn't say a word, and his body, whose time had been accelerated, was pulled out of the afterimage in the air. The next second, he appeared directly in front of Shad.
His right hand grabbed Shade's heart again.
Shade's reaction could not keep up with such a fast speed, but with the blessing of speed, the hardened right hand still failed to directly grab Shade's heart, and only left deep fingerprints on Shade's chest.
Shade, who wanted to fight back, stretched out his hand and punched forward, but the stranger, who was still accelerating time, pulled out the afterimage again and quickly left. However, when he approached Shade again with his speed advantage, Shade had already drawn the moonlight sword and stabbed him.
Underfoot:
"Seal of Heaton!"
The man who was rushing towards him collided head-on with the golden shield that was emitting light. After a bang, he failed to break through the defense. But then bang~bang~bang~ sounds came one after another from all directions, in circles.
Ripples spread on the shield, and enemies in the accelerated state use their speed advantage to attack the shield from different directions at the same time.
After a bang~, the shield was detonated by Shade. The bursting golden light waves impacted all around, causing the man with the burned face to fly backwards.
He rolled on the ground, and after confirming that he couldn't beat Shade, he turned around and tried to escape away. But this time he fell just after taking two steps, and his accelerating body slid along the road like a bullet.
ahead.
When his body finally stopped, the strange man lowered his head in shock and looked at his abdomen, which had a big hole penetrated by bloody light, and then took his last breath.
Grace and Helen, holding hands, were standing on the roof of the Accordion Hotel, looking down. There was a buzzing sound in the background, time flowed normally, and pedestrians on the street continued their ordinary afternoon.
As for Shade and the corpse, they have disappeared here.
"When did you recover?"
"Sir, when you leave here."
In the broom room, Helen answered Shade's question:
"Although my sister and I don't have the gift of time, we still have resistance. It just takes time to recover. Any life that has experienced a long time will have time resistance, just like people who live in the ice sheet all year round are very resistant to freezing, and those who live in the desert
People can tolerate the scorching sun."
After saying that, he looked at the body lying next to the cupboard:
"We were worried that he would run away, and we didn't know what other methods he had, so we just killed him."
"It doesn't matter. It's not easy to catch a person like this who has the ability to time. We released him from nowhere and we can't let him leave like this."
Shade was very sure that he didn't know this stranger. He was probably really crazy, otherwise he wouldn't have attacked them directly:
"If such an out-of-control Ring Warlock, especially one who has mastered the power of time, is allowed to escape, that would be a real big trouble."
Grace actually doesn't care much about killing people, she just doesn't want to leave a bad impression on Shade:
"His strong time talent should also be related to time travel. However, he should not be a candidate for the Chosen One, otherwise he would not die so easily."
Shade nodded, threw out a piece of canvas, turned the corpse into a toy, and put it away without paying much attention:
"If you die, you will die. He was the one who made the move first. We were acting in self-defense. It's just that the soul of such an out-of-control ring warlock is of no use even if it is channeled."
As he spoke, he squatted down in front of the cabinet again. At this time, the cabinet door had automatically closed. After Shade opened it, there was a normal cabinet inside.
So he followed the steps just now and performed it again, except this time Shade did not use the black time key, but the normal time key——
Click ~ the key turns.
"She" reminded softly:
[Outlander, you have opened a "twisted tree hole". 】
[Tips from the Father of the Infinite Tree:]
[Use the "Key of Yuctrasill" to open the door here, which will connect you to a random time point where a "time traveler" exists. 】
[Using the normal time key to open the door will connect the following three times: 1698, the sixth era of the present world; 1763, the sixth era of the present world; 1814, the sixth era of the present world.]
[Note, any life other than you who uses this channel will be cursed by time. 】
[Note that you can enter the past twenty minutes through the abnormal channel here, and you must return through this channel after the time is over. 】
[Note, after using the key to open the door here twice, the passage will completely collapse. 】
Shade grabbed the key handle and listened carefully to these reminders:
"What happened when I used the Key of Yggdrasil just now?"
[The Father of the Infinite Tree will not give a separate reminder about that special key, that key should not exist.]
However, this at least proves that the "Time Tree Hole" recorded in the literature is real, but what we encountered this time seems to be different from Shade's idea. The name "Twisted Tree Hole" itself represents that this is abnormal.
Although the method of opening this place is similar to the method of opening the spaces left by other ancient gods, it is more like a one-time door, and it is an abnormal door that appears due to the abnormal influence of the world itself.
"So, the disaster of time is this kind of time door with abnormal properties? If you use the time key to open it, it will connect to a fixed time. If you don't use the key, the abnormal properties will appear randomly."
But regardless, the path through the past has emerged.
Shade did not take action immediately, but discussed with Grace and Helen again and decided to try to open the door to the winter of 1763 this time.
"But sir, if there really is a ring warlock from the current time who appeared 91 years ago, then why didn't he or she leave any information? Has the church blocked the information about the 'time traveler', or is there something else hidden?
"
Helen asked questions, but no one could answer them. Fortunately, these questions can be solved after the missing person is found.
"We only have two chances, but I feel that there is a high probability that we can find the person directly this time. After all, the fortune teller saw snow in the fortune telling this morning. You guys wait for me here, I will be back soon."
The two sisters did not stop Shade from taking risks, but took Shade's hand. Helen in the black dress bit Shade's right index finger. When the blood seeped out, the two sisters bit their own fingers respectively.
The index finger and Shade were pressed together.
The blood of the three people blended together:
"This way, even if you don't come back, we will definitely be able to find you!"
Grace and Helen kissed the side of Shade's face as a blessing respectively. Shade smiled and waved goodbye to them, then held the key handle and opened the cupboard door——
There was still no white mist behind the door. The three of them lowered their heads to look, only to see that the normally normal interior space of the cabinet was now filled with books.
"Um?"
Grace and Helen saw that Shade beside them had disappeared at some point, and Shade, who opened the cabinet, also found that Grace and Helen beside them had disappeared.
At this moment, the surroundings suddenly lit up, and sunlight poured into this classically decorated aristocratic study room from the window. Shade was standing on the red carpet in the study room, with a cupboard serving as a bookcase in front of him.
The cabinet at this time still looks very new, the upper glass window has been polished, and the pattern on the lower door panel has not been worn away. It does not have the down-and-out appearance of the broom closet a hundred years later. This is a very high-end piece.
furniture.
"current time."
[In the sixth era of the present world, in the winter of 1763 in the universal calendar, on the 12th of the month of Sleep, it is 2:30 in the afternoon. 】
There was no one else in the study except Shade, and the place was neatly tidied. The entire room was covered with red carpet, and portraits of nobles hung on the walls covered with gold wallpaper.
A majestic solid wood desk was placed in front of the three large windows on the east side, and when Shade looked out the window, he saw white snow covering the courtyard of this unknown mansion. It was still snowing outside, but there was no
Not big:
"This must be the snow Luvia saw when she was in the water."
It's just winter, but the fireplace in the study is not lit. In fact, there are no traces of recent use here. But Shade is not in a hurry to look for clues, because when he realizes that he has arrived in the past a hundred years ago
At the same time, he clearly felt that the badge hanging on his chest suddenly became hot.
"What?"
He thought he would meet a witch, but he never thought he would meet a witch a hundred years ago. The hotness of this badge clearly means that the witch has already arrived:
"The witches of this generation, except for Grandma Cassandra, were not witches a hundred years ago, right?"
Surprised, his eyes turned to the only living thing here besides himself, which was the chubby round-faced owl standing on the window sill behind the desk.
