Chapter 840: Time Travel
"Yo, you're awake. The surgery was very successful, you have successfully..."
Dorothy heard someone say this in her ear while she was dazed.
She was instantly refreshed.
Nani, could it be that my invincible second brother is back?
She was happy in her heart, then subconsciously reached out to touch, and then curled her lips.
Tsk, didn't touch a hair.
"Why are you here? What happened just now? I remember I was trapped, right?"
The Home Witch raised her head to look at the Fallen Angel Witch sitting not far from her, and then asked with some curiosity.
She took the opportunity to look around and found that she was lying on a bed in a strange room at this time, and judging from the layout of this room, this should be an inn.
And on the table beside the bed, a beauty with ten wings on her back and a pure face was playing with a huge red diamond in her hand.
This is the Sage of Lies, Holmes, and the red diamond in her hand is naturally the Ancestor Blood Diamond.
Facing Dorothy's question, the Fallen Angel Witch Sage didn't answer directly, but said with some emotion.
"I didn't expect that I really underestimated you. You actually really managed to get the Ancestor Blood Diamond without relying on me. This is really amazing."
Holmes had an amazed expression on her face.
And Dorothy, hearing this, couldn't help but lift her nose, very proud.
"Hehehe, where, where, Sage, you overpraised me. Basic operation, all basic operations."
She smiled modestly and said so, while in her heart she was still a bit confused about the current situation.
She remembered that she should have been trapped, but how did she suddenly appear in this strange room, and Holmes was right beside her? Could it be that she was saved by this Sage of Lies at that last critical moment?
But in this way, she couldn't be considered to have gotten the Ancestor Blood Diamond on her own.
Moreover, she had originally decided not to trade the Ancestor Blood Diamond to Holmes. After all, this was the treasure of the vampire clan. If she gave it to someone else like this, she would be a bit sorry for the Dracula family.
And just when she was thinking about how to express her meaning gently without angering this Sage of Lies, and wanting to get back that Ancestor Blood Diamond, the Sage lady opposite suddenly threw the huge blood-colored treasure diamond over again.
"Sage, what do you mean by this?"
Dorothy scrambled to catch this precious diamond, held it in her arms, and then looked at Holmes with some confusion, not understanding what the other party meant.
She hadn't even opened her mouth yet, how did the other party give her the diamond? Ah, this, could it be that she was mind-read?
The Home Witch guessed so.
Although she had a Bodhisattva state of mind and also the Heart-Closing Curse taught by the Academy Head, it was generally difficult for ordinary people to read her mind, but this Sage of Lies in front of her was obviously not an ordinary person. She could almost be considered the number one person in the Spirit faction below the Three Kings.
That illusion forbidden spell Mirror Flower Water Moon was too valuable.
Moreover, the forbidden spell version of Mirror Flower Water Moon in the Mana Web Library was even a castrated version of this Sage of Lies' power. The real Mirror Flower Water Moon was actually the Sage authority she mastered....
Hmm, authority—Lies.
In short, the gap was too big. In front of her, she was actually no different from running naked.
Mentioning running naked, Dorothy was stunned. She hurriedly touched the top of her head, and then touched her face, and then her face changed drastically.
Damn, Senior, you really dropped the chain at the critical moment. Can't you be reliable?
The Home Witch scolded in her heart, hating that she didn't live up to expectations.
And she also realized another point.
That was that the clothes she was wearing at this time were not the Fafna battle robe from the banquet before, but a nightgown. At the same time, there was no cover on her face now. The Face of God was directly exposed to a strong person she couldn't resist at all.
Not good, this is really the biggest crisis in history. Did anything happen when I lost consciousness? This shouldn't be after the fact, right?
Dorothy fearfully hugged the quilt on the bed, and then vigilantly looked at the opposite side.
It was just that, to her surprise, the Sage of Lies opposite had unexpectedly clear eyes, and seemed not to be charmed by the Face of God at all.
Wow, could this be the will of a Sage? It's truly terrifying.
However, Holmes's calmness made Dorothy breathe a sigh of relief, and she really didn't feel anything strange anywhere in her body.
The only problem was whether your perception could still be trusted in front of this number one illusionist. This had to be a question mark. After all, how did that classic line go?
What made you have the illusion that I didn't use Mirror Flower Water Moon?
So, is this reality, or is it an illusion?
Can't tell, I really can't tell.
Dorothy now deeply understood the terror of a top-level illusionist. Her mere existence was enough to make people suspicious and start fighting with the air.
Fortunately, the Sage lady opposite soon spoke, interrupting the Home Witch's delusion.
"Since you succeeded, then I will keep my promise and give you a little surprise."
Holmes said so.
Dorothy heard this, and was also instantly energized. She threw the speculation of illusion or not to the back of her head, and then looked at the other party with glowing eyes.
Wuhu, this wave is taking off.
A grain of dust from a Sage's hand is a mountain in the hands of a small witch like her, and since the Sage said it's a surprise, then shouldn't this be a gold mountain?
To this, the Home Witch directly pulled her expectations to the full.
And in Dorothy's expectant eyes, Holmes came to the window of the room, and then pulled the curtain open with a bang.
"How about it, is this surprise enough?"
The Sage lady had a joyful smile on her face and asked so.
And the brilliant sunlight that suddenly shot in also made Dorothy squint her eyes. And when she adapted to the sunlight and saw the familiar yet strange scenery outside the window, she widened her eyes.
Hmm, she was a bit familiar with the scenery outside the window, seemed to have seen it somewhere.
Her photographic memory also quickly found the source of this familiarity from the memory palace.
This was the scenery she had seen in the illusion constructed by the exquisite acting of the two ladies when she was watching "Lies and Tricks" performed by the two ladies at the Witch Opera House before....
This was still Venus City.
Or more accurately, it was Night City, or Sin City.
Hmm, Night City at the end of the Dragon King era, when the Demon King was rising.
"Damn, I'm afraid I haven't woken up yet. This must be a dream."
Dorothy blinked, then silently pulled up the little quilt and lay back on the bed.
This must be because she got up too fast just now, otherwise how could she have such a strange dream of traveling through time and space?
It was just that, even if she closed her eyes, the joyful laughter from the window kept coming, which made the Home Witch unable to continue being an ostrich. She turned her head and looked at the Sage who was smiling brightly.
"What is going on? Where is this surprising? This is clearly a shock, okay."
She was really full of confusion about the current situation.
And Holmes probably finally laughed enough. "Twelve-ring forbidden spell—Time Travel, you must have heard of this, Miss Forest Witch."
She said so.
Dorothy heard this and was also stunned.
She had indeed heard of this, and had been frantically tempted by it.
After all, she herself had time and space talent, so how could she be indifferent to the ultimate magic of the time and space system?
And the ability of this forbidden spell was just like its name, having the ability to let the user travel freely in the endless time and space.
Hmm, you can rely on this to go to the past, you can also rely on this to go to the future, and you can also go to many parallel worlds to adventure. In short, it is very magical.
It was just why mention this? What does time travel have to do with her current situation?
Dorothy thought of something.
"Sage, do you mean that the trap magic attached to the Ancestor Treasure Diamond is Time Travel?"
The Home Witch asked with great surprise.
Then she was also convinced by those Vampire Witches. No, generally speaking, shouldn't trap magic be that kind of attack or control magic? What do you mean by doing Time Travel?
Sending someone on a trip that says go?
"Hmm, I sold this to them back then."
Holmes nodded, and then smiled even more joyfully.
Dorothy: "..."
Whenever I hit a question mark, it's not that I have a problem, but that I think you have a problem.
Good grief, so the culprit is right in front of me.
"Hahaha, don't be angry, don't be angry. The world is so beautiful, but you are so irritable, that's not good."
The Sage lady dodged the Home Witch's angry punch with a flash, and then lay on the bed Dorothy had just been lying on, laughing and continuing to explain.
"Weren't you very curious about how I stole that Ancestor Treasure Diamond back then? That's how I stole it."
"The future me stole the future Ancestor Treasure Diamond and sent it back to the past me. How about it? My technique is not bad, right?"
Holmes said with a boastful tone.
Dorothy: "..."
The Home Witch was silent. She widened her eyes, indeed shocked by the genius technique of this Sage.
"But didn't you say before that you didn't actually get it, but only stole the Ancestor Blood Diamond in people's hearts, and you haven't even seen the real thing?"...
She recalled the other party's statement when the two were trading in the tavern before, and for a moment didn't know which sentence was true.
"Hmm, that is also a fact."
Holmes nodded, admitting it.
"However, lies always have to be true and false to be effective. The Ancestor Diamond I stole in the past was indeed just a diamond of the heart, but from now on, it will no longer be just a lie."
The Sage lady pointed to the real Ancestor Treasure Diamond in Dorothy's arms and said so.
Dorothy: "..."
Good grief, is this the obsessive-compulsive disorder of a big shot? So you went around such a big circle just to replace the fake prop in the past with this real one now?
No, does this make sense?
The Home Witch was a bit speechless. She could only say that she, a rookie, didn't understand the world of big shots very well.
"However, it's a bit difficult now. Originally, I only wanted to send back the treasure diamond, but now you have been sent together. This is not good."
Holmes suddenly said so again.
And this also made Dorothy nervous instantly.
Not good? How is it not good?
"Can't you send me back?"
Dorothy hurriedly asked.
"Of course not. Do you really think time travel is a trip that says go? Time travel is a very dangerous thing."
The Sage lady shook her head and said very seriously.
"How to describe it? Hmm, it's like ripples on the river. Every time you travel through time, you will create ripples on the previous river of time, and before those ripples completely subside, you can't perform the next time travel. Otherwise, it is easy to cause time and space confusion, making you lost in the river of time."
"Uh, it seems there is indeed such a saying."
Dorothy nodded, considering it an acknowledgment of this reason. She had indeed seen this saying in some magic theories before.
This can also be considered the cooling period of time magic.
"Then how long do I have to wait to go back? I remember there are taboos for time travel, right? You can't break in randomly, otherwise, if you accidentally change the future, it will also cause unimaginable disasters."
The Home Witch also had a big head. She remembered many other taboos about time travel.
Let you travel, it's really just a trip. You'd better look at it like looking at fish in an aquarium, looking through a glass barrier the whole time. Otherwise, if you really dive into the water and accidentally have any interaction with the "fish" in the water, it might cause various chain changes like the butterfly effect.
This is very dangerous. After all, everyone's birth is actually a tiny miracle. If the past changes, the tiny miracle that gave birth to you in the future might not exist, which means you might not exist directly.
You were not born, so you don't exist...
In short, all kinds of trouble.
Of course, big shots who have the ability to travel through time and space must have various means to prevent those accidents, and will minimize the impact of their own travel as much as possible.
But Dorothy has no means at all.
Therefore, her existence itself is a mistake for this past world. She doesn't dare to go out now. Otherwise, if she is seen by people of this era, even if she is just glanced at, she has already produced the existence mark of "Dorothy of thirty thousand years later."
Hmm, just like a modern person playing with a mobile phone and traveling to the past, and then being seen by an ancient person, and that person happens to be very good at painting, and then painted a picture of a strange person. Then God knows what expression the archaeologist will have after opening the painter's ancient tomb millions of years later when seeing the modern person playing with a mobile phone in the painting.
This is enough to affect the future.
Of course, the future of a powerful world like the Witch World is not so easy to change. After all, the world's self-correction ability is quite powerful. Therefore, if such an accident really occurs, it might trigger the world consciousness's self-correction mechanism, which will be even more troublesome.
Damn, thinking about it this way, it's not wrong for the Vampire Witches to use time travel as trap magic. This thing is much more troublesome than other magic for time travel novices.
"Relax, I thought of a solution. How about I lend you my identity? From now on, you are Holmes. You replace me in this era to complete the things that I should have completed."
The Sage of Lies blinked, but suddenly proposed so.
"Uh? This also works?"
Dorothy blinked, and was shocked by this proposal again.
"It works, of course it works. After all, I in this period are not as powerful as the famous Forest Witch. You playing me is not easy to catch. Otherwise, you can also choose to be locked in this room for a month. Hmm, a month is almost enough for the cooling to end."
Holmes said so.
The picture is revealed. (End of chapter)
