Chapter 1630
"It seems that you really have your own backing."
The brothers also noticed the situation around them; they were not panicked, but held hands again.
This time there was no obstruction of thick fog on the island, and the distance was relatively close, Xia De could clearly perceive that when the two formed a whole, even the spirits on them were communicating with each other:
"Miracle - Mirror Image Bomb!"
"Be careful!"
The brown-haired lady hugged Xia De the cat tightly, then summoned a transparent shield, and the bodies of the brothers instantly exploded into countless tiny mirror fragments. The sharp glass fragments splashed towards all sides at a speed exceeding bullets, and on each mirror fragment, there was a complete mirror image of the brothers.
The splashed glass fragments pierced the walls, embedded in the ground, and even caused continuous ripples on the witch's shield. Countless rays of light shot out from the mirror pieces and then reflected on other mirror surfaces, thereby causing a larger range of attacks.
Those rays of light were just ordinary attack-type curses, but combined with miracles, the effects were very exaggerated.
Xia De knew that Megan and Audrey didn't want their followers to discover their weakness, so when Megan's shield broke and she dodged, he also cast a miracle at the door frame that no longer had a door:
"Moon Thorns."
Silver thorn bushes grew from the soil soaked in rain, and in the process of rapidly spreading and intertwining, they blocked the splashing mirror fragments and four-shot rays of light with a clatter.
Xia De could perceive the brothers' bodies, which were hidden in a piece of mirror fragment, but the fragments were fast and numerous, and even he couldn't capture their positions in a short time.
At the same time, the witches on the roof had jumped down one after another, trying to intercept the mirror fragments flying in all directions in the rain while trying to capture the hiding place of the brothers, but they also failed.
And when everything calmed down, the surrounding buildings and mud were already covered with those strange mirror pieces, but the two brothers who cast the spell had disappeared.
Regarding their escape, Xia De and the witch also expected it; as Edwards descendants, they themselves didn't look like normal Ringed Shushi. Now that one of them had a mental state problem and the other could only exert the strength of a six-ring, it was indeed difficult to stop them.
However, just as Xia De was about to revoke the Moon Thorns, the witch said hurriedly again:
"I'll hold you in a while; don't speak in front of my followers."
Xia De could understand her thoughts; she couldn't have explained his uniqueness to every one of her followers. Just like Miss Miss Jia Lin Na and the others, only the closest followers around them knew his situation.
Fortunately, it was difficult to distinguish gender from the outside in cat form, so as long as Xia De didn't speak, no one would know the cat was a male cat.
He nodded, and then felt as if he had rubbed against something. The witch's face turned red and she didn't say anything; while the thorn bushes slowly retreated to the sides of the door frame, her face restored a haughty posture, holding the silver cat and passing through the door frame under the guard of the thorns.
The invisible force field repelled the rain around, and those girls who were in the rain respectfully said to Megan Edwards:
"Lady."
"Disguise this place as if the 【Mirror Association】 had been here; don't let the church discover our tracks. Don't move the relics on the third floor; leave them here to make a trap, and take away all other property. Leave in half an hour and continue the surveillance mission in other areas."
"Yes, lady."
The witches said, so the witch touched the cat in her arms gently, walked past them, and walked towards the door.
"Aren't you surprised at all that you have such a great power?"
In the carriage, she asked Xia De again; the silver cat squatted on the soft cushion of the carriage seat:
"You are an eleven-ring yourself; it's normal to have some of your own power. I just didn't expect you to have so many followers... you must have a lot of personal charm."
"Wait until I recover, I'll take you to see my real power; the entire Paradise Island Pharmaceuticals should actually be considered a Ringed Shushi group. But now you need to rest well; I will send people to monitor the remaining three places we haven't been to. If people from the Mirror Association appear again, we will give up today's plan. Also, after you wake up, I want to talk to you about what the two people just said, that Rotten Eye Bali transported some supplies to the island, but there were no traces of supplies stored on the island. I think I know what's going on."
She said gently.
"Okay, I only need to sleep for four hours. But the direction the carriage is driving doesn't seem to be to the Green Lake Hotel."
Xia De had never slept in the bedroom he rented.
"Although it's safe there, it's not comfortable enough. Go to my place; I think you should be able to trust me now."
"Of course. So, is this going to the local station of Paradise Island Pharmaceuticals? Or, do you have your own property locally."
The witch smiled and shook her head:
"Go to the ship. I have a pretty good yacht, just parked on the Duin River."
The outsider still underestimated the wealth level of the witches.
In fact, Xia De was not without having seen the yachts of this world; in the world of the steam age, although yachts were still steam-powered, and lighting facilities and communication systems were also purely mechanical mechanisms, they also had a different kind of aesthetic.
When Xia De was in Coldwater Port, he boarded a ship with Princess Lei Qianya to attend an auction and then encountered the 【Fishbone Pirate Group】, which was the first time he boarded a yacht. And compared to that cruise ship holding the Ringed Shushi auction, Megan and Audrey's cruise ship was obviously smaller.
But this was also understandable; after all, that one was an ocean-going ship, while this one was mainly for inland river shipping.
The rain was still falling, and the carriage carried the two across the bridge back to the west of Green Lake City, and then boarded the three-story cruise ship from the pier in the backwater bay in the city.
When Xia De was acting in Green Lake City, he had also seen this ship from afar, but didn't expect it to be docked here by the witch.
He was already a bit exhausted, so after boarding the ship, he followed the witch to the room prepared for him and prepared to go to sleep directly. In fact, it was more convenient to go home to rest at such a time, but since Audrey and Megan had kindly made an invitation, Xia De was also willing to accept their kindness.
The room arranged for him should be prepared for special guests. The pillows and quilts on the ship were very good; it would be even better if it weren't red. Although the time was only 11:00 in the morning, after Megan helped light the sleep-aiding incense, Xia De almost fell asleep as soon as he closed his eyes.
The emptiness in his heart and the indifference to all things became unimportant when Xia De stood on the ridge in his dream and saw the huge silver moon. The light of the silver moon shone on him, and the reflection of the silver moon was in Xia De's eyes, and also reflected in his heart.
"Speaking of which, I rarely dream during the day; it turns out that when I dream during the day, I also dream of the moon."
【Does what you dream of have anything to do with whether it's daytime?】
"She" made a lot of sense.
As for waking up from the dream, it was not that Xia De woke up naturally, but that he felt the surroundings shaking. After opening his eyes, he immediately understood that this was not an illusion, and then realized that the hull was shaking.
He put on his coat and left the room, passed through the cabin corridor of this yacht, and came to the deck, sensing the badge on his chest heating up, and sure enough, saw the brown-haired witch standing in the storm, looking south with a grim expression.
Although it was still afternoon, the sky was as gloomy as night. The direction Audrey Edwards was looking at was the direction of Green Lake City, and Xia De also looked up, and then saw a pitch-black cloud pillar straight into the dark clouds in the sky, and at the end of that black cloud pillar, the pitch-black cloud layer presented a terrible appearance like a vortex, and even Xia De couldn't see clearly what was in the cloud layer.
"What's wrong?"
"Oh, you're awake? Sorry, I didn't expect the wind and rain in the afternoon to be so heavy."
The witch said, and Xia De opened his umbrella and came to her side:
"Is that... the direction of the central island?"
"Today is the day when the Five Gods Church and the Prophecy Association of this diocese jointly land on the island; this counts as a major operation. Also because the main Ringed Shushi team of the church was transferred to the island, I planned today's action in the city; otherwise, do you think we could be safe and sound after making such a stir in the city? It seems that the church's team has encountered trouble."
The witch said worriedly.
Not only the people on the yacht, but the entire north and south banks of Green Lake could probably see the cloud pillar rising from the center of the lake, as well as the vortex-shaped rain clouds covering the lake surface. This was not quite the same as the abnormality Xia De made when they first landed on the island using the "Spatial Stability Halo"; this appearance was simply like a storm rising in Green Lake.
The rain fell heavier and heavier; although Xia De didn't know what was happening on the island now, he really hoped that the people who landed on the island could all return safely.
"I told my thirteen-ring friend about the matter here."
On the shaking deck, the witch suddenly said softly, and Xia De looked at her; in fact, he was not surprised at all. When he was dating Miss Jia Lin Na on Sunday, the red-haired duchess was held by him, and while flirting, she said the content of that meeting:
"Will your thirteen-ring friend come here?"
"No, at least not currently."
Audrey shook her head gently:
"But twelve-ring and eleven-ring will come a few. Probably... next week. How is your state? You look much better than in the morning."
"It's fine."
Although he woke up from a nap, he didn't feel sleepy at all, but was full of energy. Even the slightly cold but violent wind and the pouring rain couldn't affect his state:
"I also told my teacher about the danger here, and she gave me a very good alchemical item, giving me a chance to escape next time."
The lady with brown shoulder-length hair teased with a smile:
"Your teacher is really stingy; I thought she would give you a relic. Sage-level, or even angel-level. Looking at it this way, your teacher is not that great."
