~10 min read 1,852 words

The old witch nodded with a smile:

"I thought my illusion could still deceive you like before. Well, well, even if you chose the wrong one, I would still give you the news. Recently, some unfriendly guys have come here. 【Dragon Feast Sect】, you should know this group of people. I have lived in this city since I retired, and I know that we don't have anything here that they can miss. The only big news in the city recently is the maiden voyage of the Radiant Messenger. You should be careful. Maybe they have taken a fancy to something on that ship."

Professor Evans was very puzzled:

"But I have seen that ship at the port. Although the ship is very large, it is just a creation of ordinary people. Does the 【Dragon Feast Sect】 want to snatch that ship and transform it into their own thing?"

The old witch shook her head, she didn't know either:

"You just be careful yourself. After all, the 【Dragon Feast Sect】 is also a cult organization. Don't end up in trouble and still need me, an old lady, to save you."

"Professor Enzo, don't worry, I will pay attention."

Professor Evans said with a smile, but it seemed that she didn't take the matter of 【Dragon Feast Sect】 too seriously.

She stood up from the sofa and said to Xia De behind her:

"Look, if I had taken this news seriously at that time and investigated it in advance, maybe there wouldn't have been what happened later."

"No one can foresee the future in advance, this is not your fault."

Xia De said, but the phantom of Professor Evans shook her head and pointed to the dark sea:

"I am there. There is not much time left. It is the same for you and for us. Let go and do it, young man, you have to believe in yourself."

Professor Evans said and was about to disappear in place, but was stopped by Xia De. He hesitated and said:

"Wait a minute, Professor, what do you mean by your words just now? You wouldn't know who I am, would you?"

The professor's phantom said with a smile:

"I wasn't sure before, but now I am completely sure.

Strange rumors have been circulating in the Zaras Academy of Literature, the Sexas Higher Medical College, and the Saint Byrons Comprehensive Academy. When young and beautiful witches encounter fatal threats, destiny will send a special outsider to help and save them... Although this sounds like a romantic fantasy of young girls whose hearts are moved, it is very unfortunate that I have been in the academy for so many years and have read many previous materials."

"What did you find?"

Xia De asked curiously.

"When the Zaras Academy of Literature was just the 'Zaras Society', Becky Samuel, a witch of the same era as the founder of Saint Byrons, Miss Feliana, once recorded some interesting stories. Those stories were not comprehensive, but I understood the implied information in them."

Xia De was a little stunned. Miss Becky Samuel was the lady he met in the Kadis Library in the Dead Valley with Miss Olanod and Fiona. Xia De still remembered that she wore a pair of round-rimmed glasses, was unkempt, but had the temperament of a scholar.

"Miss Samuel..."

Although it was only last year for him, it really felt like a long time ago.

Professor Evans disappeared silently, Xia De rubbed the little head of the cat on his chest, and then threw the fishing rod toward the sea again.

Temporarily putting aside the rumor that he seemed to be spreading throughout the Fifth Era, the memory he just saw from Professor Evans was very interesting:

"So, this matter in the Fifth Era is actually related to the 【Dragon Feast Sect】 again. It wouldn't be such a coincidence, so the evil object that appeared this time is probably made by them. The ritual of calling the 'Deep Sea Evil Object - Seven-Tailed Player', they actually mastered it in the Fifth Era... As expected of a cult organization with a long history, the god they believe in is also worthy of being the eldest son of the ancient dragon god."

But the key to this matter is not the relationship between the 【Dragon Feast Sect】 and that deep-sea evil object. The point is that most of the actions of the 【Dragon Feast Sect】 are related to dragons, and the purpose of anything they do can eventually be linked to "dragons." Even if it is the Fifth Era now, not the Sixth Era, they killed more than 3,000 people at once, and what they sought was definitely not summoning the "Seven-Tailed Player" to attack the city.

After all, the witch emperors at the end of the Fifth Era were much more terrifying than the Orthodox Church in the Sixth Era. The latter is a truly righteous organization and a positive character, as for those witch emperors... they are sometimes very righteous.

"So, what exactly is the 【Dragon Feast Sect】 trying to do after so much effort?"

While thinking, huge force had been transmitted from the sea along the fishing line. Xia De immediately put down those messy thoughts, leaned his body back while pulling the thing hooked by the fishing line toward the floating board.

So a few minutes later, Miss Theresa and Miss Maxim by the campfire watched Xia De walk toward them from the side of the god, holding Professor Evans, who was pale and had only weak breathing in her chest.

Miss Malone, who had just regained her spirit, tilted her head and immediately fell into a deep sleep again. And the "Professor Evans" who was supported by Miss Maxim stood up immediately, her face turned pale rapidly, and the chill emitted by the body that had just regained its body temperature made the two young witches subconsciously step back.

"Be careful, the professor is twelfth-order!"

Miss Theresa reminded, and Xia De, who was prepared, disappeared in place holding Professor Evans' body. While the pale "Professor Evans" stopped rushing forward and turned around, two pitch-black chains had fallen from the sky and tied her neck. Then, Xia De smashed Professor Evans' body he was holding heavily onto her.

The soul left that fake body and re-entered the real body like magnets attracting each other. The fake body trembled and wanted to reach out and pinch the neck of the real body, but because it lost the support of the soul, it finally turned into transparent seawater and disappeared on the floating board.

Xia De hurriedly helped Professor Evans up again. She coughed a few times, and after spitting out a mouthful of seawater, she finally opened her weak eyes.

Maid Maxim was better at taking care of people than Xia De, so she took over Professor Evans, supported her to sit down, and fed her the magic potion prepared in advance. And Miss Malone also woke up at this time, but she didn't look at the people around her, just looked at the campfire that provided light and warmth for everyone with a dull gaze.

"Four fishing sessions have been completed three times, and the next is the last one. I have some things to tell you."

Xia De pulled Miss Theresa's hand, and then sat around the campfire with everyone. This time, the five people were so close to the campfire that although it was not vigorous, it was exceptionally warm, so that everyone could see how the light of the fire and the shadows of the darkness jumped on other people's faces.

The cat was wriggling in the clothes on Xia De's chest, and the witches all looked at Xia De. Miss Malone in the rain had a sad and confused face, and Xia De felt that she seemed to have recovered some memories.

Confirming that everyone was listening carefully, Xia De told all the clues he had discovered so far, including the relationship between 【Dragon Feast Sect】 and evil objects, dragons and ships.

Miss Theresa was still a little confused, Miss Maxim had guesses after hearing the end. Professor Evans sighed softly when Xia De finished speaking, she already understood.

No one interrupted Xia De's story. After Xia De finished analyzing these clues, he asked the only "ordinary girl":

"Miss Malone, last time you mentioned that when you were dating that missing lady in the boiler room, you saw some strange patterns on the wall, please see if it is this."

The starlight brilliance on the book was suppressed by the darkness, and Miss Malone just glanced at it and nodded lightly:

"It's this."

Xia De breathed a sigh of relief, this is a key piece of evidence:

"Then the whole process of the matter can be determined. The 【Dragon Feast Sect】 infiltrated and controlled the 'Radiant Messenger', and launched the ritual after the ship left the port, sacrificing the lives of everyone on the entire ship, and finally successfully summoned that deep-sea evil object. But for unknown reasons, of course, it is probably the god behind me."

Xia De pointed back:

"Because of the god's help, you who should have died and that evil object came to this lightless sea area, and then I appeared here."

"I'm sorry, children, I should have noticed it in advance."

Professor Evans, who had just recovered, said softly, and Miss Theresa also pursed her lips and said:

"Aunt mentioned that evil object to me, and I should have been prepared."

"Miss, it's me who didn't take good care of you."

Maid Maxim also said, Xia De shook his head:

"Don't say this first. Even if you piece together these clues in advance, they don't necessarily point to the truth. Besides, you didn't expect such things to happen at all before. Now my reasoning about this matter, the evidence comes from your memories and Miss Malone's identification, but this is not enough. I think the final evidence should be in Miss Malone's memory."

So the witches all looked at this "ordinary person." In fact, they all had questions in their hearts, so Xia De spoke for them;

"But there are still questions about Miss Malone's matter. For example, why did she lose the memory before boarding the ship, why did the girl who should have slept in the same bed with her disappear, for example, why did she obviously steal nothing, but the guests in the first-class cabin said that she lost a precious antique."

Miss Malone pursed her lips and looked at Xia De. She looked quite fragile compared to others, although she was also wrapped in a blanket. The black long hair was wet and stuck to the skin, and the emotion in the azure eyes was quite complicated. ===== CHAPTER 2157 =====

Miss Malong pursed her lips as she looked at Xia De. Like the others, she was wrapped in a blanket, yet she appeared even more fragile than the rest. Her long black hair was damp and limp, clinging to her skin, and the emotions in her azure eyes were quite complex.
