Chapter 1464: Crystal Shoes and Mystery Lock

"Xia De!"

On this Sunday afternoon, when Xia De walked out of the basement, feeling that he had only been away from home for two days but it felt like he hadn't been home for more than a month, footsteps sounded on the stairs, and then Dorothy rushed down and hugged Xia De directly.

"I'm fine, don't worry too much."

"If you were really fine, I wouldn't believe you didn't come home to sleep last night."

The writer lady who knew him quite well secretly wiped away tears and then said to him. Xia De was choked by this sentence, so he had to put Mia down first, let it jump upstairs by itself, and then took Dorothy's hand and walked upstairs.

"I'm really fine."

He emphasized again. Dorothy nodded and said with a smile:

"Now I know, if your physical condition was not good, you definitely wouldn't have time to take a bath before coming back." "Hmm..."

"Father Priest Priest Ao Gu Si came over yesterday."

Dorothy didn't notice Xia De's hesitation. When they entered the living room on the second floor together, she said again. "Father Priest Priest Ao Gu Si? What's the matter?"

"Of course, he's looking for you. Such a big thing happened in Randall Valley, and now it has spread all over the world. I think except for those guys who are ill-informed in the depths of the ruins of the New Continent, everyone knows about what happened before dawn on Saturday."

She let Xia De sit down, and then looked quite happy as she took the teapot from the kitchen. She seemed to have expected Xia De to come back at this time:

"Father Priest Priest Ao Gu Si knows that you have been active in Randall Valley recently, so he came to see your condition and confirm whether you are related to the Southern Kingdom incident. However, when he saw that there was only me at home, he almost understood."

Dorothy didn't ask what Xia De had experienced in Randall Valley: "Speaking of which, are Luvia and the doctor okay?"

"They are all very well. Luvia will be back in a day or two. The professors returning to the academy will bring her back, so there is no need to take a steam train. As for the doctor, I think it will be a week before I see him again."

Xia De said, and then realized that it seemed to be the doctor who was the most unlucky again.

"I don't know what you have experienced, but it's good to see you again, Xia De."

After pouring tea, she sat beside Xia De. Her body leaned toward Xia De, and when she sat up straight again, she was already Princess Lei Qianya:

"Oh, Xia De!"

Although they were two different souls, the tone of speaking was so similar. Lei Qianya and Dorothy could share part of the memories before and after exchanging souls, so Xia De didn't need to explain his good physical condition again.

Compared to the more reserved Dorothy, Lei Qianya gave Xia De an extremely enthusiastic kiss. After the passionate kiss, she wrapped her arms around Xia De's neck and asked in a very good mood:

"The Randall Valley incident is related to you, right?" "Yes."

Xia De nodded directly. Lei Qianya's strength in hugging Xia De's neck increased a bit:

"Luvia helped you a lot over there, right? That's really good. If possible, Dorothy and I also want to help you. But I also know that even if the two of us add up, we might not be able to beat Luvia."

Although she said so, the princess didn't have too much disappointment. She knew she could help Xia De in other places, and Luvia, who was just a commoner, couldn't help.

"The Randall Valley incident is over. I think in the spring, you shouldn't be as busy as you were a while ago, right?" "Of course, I think I can take a break. How about going for an outing outside the city together in the spring?"

Xia De issued an invitation, and Lei Qianya nodded with a smile. Closing her eyes, Lei Qianya changed back to Dorothy. The joy in the writer lady's soul was clearly shown in her emerald eyes:

"Lei Qianya forgot to say just now. The last Red Butterfly Day was delayed because you were busy. She said that she would look for an interesting banquet recently and let you clear your schedule."

After finishing speaking with a blushing face, Dorothy asked softly: "So, tonight, Xia De, are you going to stay home overnight?" "Of course!"

As long as he could go home, Xia De never liked to stay outside...

... overnight.

"That's good, I'll help you... make the bed in advance... It was Lei Qianya who said that she wanted to check the knight's body."

The blonde girl said with a slight bite of her lip. Xia De naturally understood what she meant. Luvia would be back soon, and whether it was Dorothy or Lei Qianya, they both hoped to seize the last time.

And mentioning the topic of making the bed, Xia De thought of another thing...

"Dorothy, I remember that after we used the crystal shoes last time, they have been kept in the cloakroom." He said suddenly, so the writer lady showed an ambiguous smile:

"Yes, I'm glad you still remember it. Tonight, do you still need me to wear those shoes? I really didn't expect, Xia De, that you actually like this."

"No, no, that's not what I meant!"

Xia De said hurriedly. The Destiny Ring appeared behind him slowly. While Dorothy was surprised that he had leveled up again, Xia De pointed to the rune radiating brass spiritual light:

"Enlightenment - Cinderella."

"I'm not surprised at all. Is this another mystery lock?" Dorothy asked. Xia De nodded:

"Because my mystery locks are interconnected, forming a more massive composite mystery lock, even though I have already reached the sixth ring, I still cannot fully activate the effect of the mystery lock. But Cinderella is a bit special. I can use part of the ability in a normal state, which is probably related to Cinderella herself having two different forms. As for the normal effect of the mystery lock, simply put, when I drop a crystal shoe, I can return to the location I consider 'home'. Of course, the dropped crystal shoe will also return with me."

And in the state of fully opening the mystery lock, Xia De could grant the girls the power of "transformation", and even bring the surrounding environment back together.

The blonde girl nodded knowingly. She and Lei Qianya had discussed the story with Xia De every Saturday for the past few months, and they also had guesses about the possible effects of the mystery lock:

"This is indeed very similar to that fairy tale, and you are good at space power yourself, so the thaumaturgy characteristics are not very surprising. So, you can return home at any time from now on?"

"Not at any time. Using such an effect consumes a considerable amount of spirit. Moreover, although you can bring living people back in the mystery lock state, you can only bring yourself and non-living things in the normal state."

Xia De corrected:

"Of course, if it's in Tobesk, the consumption of casting the spell doesn't matter, I can still afford it. But if it's a city very far away, I must consider the consumption of spirit. But fortunately, the closer the casting time is to midnight, the less spirit is consumed. If it's a few seconds before midnight, even in Randall Valley at the southern end of the Old Continent, I can return directly with almost no consumption."

"That sounds pretty good."

The writer lady praised, got up and went to the cloakroom in the bedroom, and brought the crystal shoe on the right foot to Xia De:

"If Lei Qianya knew that from now on, no matter where you go, you will carry her shoes with you, and take them out to use from time to time, she would definitely be very happy."

She joked.

"Dorothy, that makes me sound like a pervert."

Xia De said dissatisfiedly, and threw the crystal shoe to the side. Only a "meow" was heard. The cat that was originally lying on Xia De's lap fell to the sofa, and then got up in a panic to look for Xia De, not quite understanding how Xia De suddenly disappeared.

At the same time, there was a sound from the bedroom, and it seemed that something fell on the bed. Mia ran over immediately. After a while, Xia De was seen carrying the cat and the crystal shoe and walked out:

"The effect is not bad, but the landing point seems to be a random location in the home, determined by the astrology of the day, my own state, the current location, and luck."

He sat back beside Dorothy:

"Speaking of which, do you have anything to do this afternoon?"

"Yes, there is a scheduled interview task. I am going to visit an old lady who lives alone, so, see you tonight. Seeing that you are fine, I am relieved."

The blonde girl said, and kissed Xia De on the side of the face gently...

... Then, she saw Xia De pick up the crystal shoe and kiss it gently. A blush appeared on Dorothy's cheeks. This was a quite bold behavior in this era.

So, she said very softly:

"I will, look forward to the coming night... See you tonight, Xia De."

She stayed with Xia De for a while longer, asking more about the situation in Randall Valley. Seeing that there was really no time left, the blonde girl bid farewell to Xia De and left 6 St. Deran Square.

As for Xia De, he did not return to Randall Valley, but took Mia back to the basement. After entering the hidden space, he took out the black stone mirror covered with cracks that Doctor Schneider gave him after the Battle of Osenfort Manor on Friday night.

This is the remains of a demon. Due to the particularity of the mirror, it contains the "spoils" obtained from the stone mirror demon - Goethe. And Xia De considered the safety issue, so he only took the mirror out at this time.

The small stone mirror looked very ancient. Although it was covered with cracks, the red-brown protrusions like blood vessels on the mirror frame made it look like it had a kind of dilapidated beauty.

Although the demon only gave Xia De six rewards at the beginning, in fact, the "wealth" on this ancient evil spirit was far more than those things. However, because it involved demonic power, Xia De could not use most of the items at will, so the only things Doctor Schneider gave Xia De were things he could use.

There were no miscellaneous items on this ancient evil spirit. After Xia De reached out to check the inside of the mirror, besides the five "rewards" and special precious materials, the only discovery worth mentioning was three round golden coins.
