Chapter 2183

"Let me see... the Sun in the upright position, it seems the result is not bad... I thought you would oppose me divining casually again."

Miss Belinder said to Xia De with a smile again. Xia De felt very strange:

"When did I ever oppose you divining casually?"

"In my opinion, you and the..."

She originally wanted to say "Speaker", but thinking that Emilia was still here, she changed her words:

"You are like my old boss, the kind of person who, although in awe of fate, doesn't like to interpret fate casually."

Xia De was very curious about what kind of expression Miss Adele Isabella would have if she heard the title "old boss", but he just smiled at this time, and then said to Emilia:

"Don't have too much pressure. Before you moved into my house, you even encountered Sage-level relics, and now you only encountered Poet-level relics. This shows that the curses these cultists left on you have seriously weakened."

The witch heard "moved into my house", Emilia nodded gently, but still felt in her heart that she had been adding trouble to Xia De.

After lunch, everyone started preparing to expel the relic. In order to ensure no light, the basement without windows was the best environment. The Belinder Manor has a long history and is used for various purposes, such as wine cellars, vegetable cellars, etc. The number of basements is very large. Finally, the witch chose the basement in the southeast corner of the manor. This place is used by the witch to temporarily store relics with extremely high danger, but it is currently in an idle state.

After a slight cleaning, pillows, mattresses, quilts, and a metal folding bed were moved in. After Xia De, Miss Belinder, and Emilia entered, Miss Matilda waved to the three of them, and then comforted the little unicorn Liana, before closing the door outside.

The silver ball of light condensed in Xia De's hand illuminated the surroundings. The witch signaled the elf girl to lie on the bed. She looked at Xia De, and with some embarrassment, she got into the quilt:

"Then Miss Belinder, Mr. Watson, see you in a while."

Saying this, she drank the sleeping potion prepared in advance very obediently... actually, it was a strong sleeping pill. After closing her eyes and lying down, she soon fell into a dream.

Xia De extinguished the ball of light he called out, and the surroundings fell into complete darkness. Xia De and Miss Belinder both had "dark vision", so they sat by the bed together waiting for the relic effect to be triggered, and could also clearly see each other in the darkness.

It's just that I have to admit that in the darkness where vision is suppressed, Xia De felt his sense of smell become more sensitive. The evidence lies in the fact that when the witch leaned towards him, he felt the perfume on her hair and body at this moment was incomparably clear.

"I slept very well this morning."

The witch said softly:

"I haven't slept so comfortably for a long time."

She was satisfied to see the man in front of her at a loss. Xia De didn't know how to answer this sentence. Fortunately, she was just wanting to see Xia De's reaction. Of course, sleeping comfortably was also the truth:

"When I woke up this morning, I saw you reading 'Mind Compass'."

"Yes, for the sublimation language spiritual rune of the 7th ring, 【Guidance】 or 【Direction】."

Xia De said in a low voice. In fact, even if he used 【Dragon Roar】 at this time, he wouldn't wake up the elf girl sleeping behind them. As for "Mind Compass", that was a book lent to him by Miss Danister at the dusk when they temporarily parted after the Green Lake incident. That was in May, and now it is mid-July. In nearly two months, although Xia De had gained something, it was not enough to obtain the spiritual rune.

"【Guidance】 and 【Direction】?"

She nodded gently:

"Perhaps I can give you some help. My core spiritual runes are the rare four: Enlightenment - 【Eye】 【Guidance】 【Travel】 【Rice】."

Compared to Luvia's core spiritual runes - 【Noble】 【Fate】 【Destroyer】 【Bad Luck】, Bella Belinder's initial talent as a diviner was actually not outstanding. And she could have today's achievements, obviously besides the convenience brought by the witch identity, more was her own efforts.

"Guidance and Direction, right?"

She smiled in the darkness:

"Perhaps I can give you some help. My core spiritual runes are the rare four: Enlightenment - 【Eye】 【Guidance】 【Travel】 【Rice】. The teacher took a fancy to my 【Guidance】 and 【Eye】 back then, believing that I had the talent to peek into fate and guide the future. I don't know who recommended 'Mind Compass' to you. I admit that this is good for obtaining the 【Guidance】 spiritual rune, but it is also a bit too cumbersome and troublesome."

She smiled in the darkness:

"There is a more convenient way: try to lead a person's fate, guide her or him to walk on the right path. The meaning of 【Guidance】 corresponds to the four elements, and there are different ways of interpretation, but in my opinion, this is the most convenient. Of course, if you are just showing the way for ordinary people, you won't have any harvest even if you are busy for a year. Only special fate can obtain extra gifts from fate."

In fact, this is also a method that Luvia can quickly upgrade and obtain power by witnessing the stories of the Chosen Ones. Xia De didn't expect that this method would also be helpful to himself:

"Guide the Chosen One? This is a good idea. I have always had a subtle relationship with the Chosen Ones, and in fact, if I think about it carefully, I haven't deliberately guided anyone, just watching the story happen. But if I want to guide, then it's not difficult, as long as..."

He was about to say something else, but suddenly closed his mouth, because footsteps sounded in the basement.

It was impossible for there to be a fourth person here besides Xia De, the witch, and the elf, but the footsteps sounded so real to Xia De. Even the most powerful illusion master couldn't simulate such a perfect sound. Xia De could even imagine the position and posture of the "person" entering here in the dark through the footsteps in an instant.

"Fake, all fake."

He thought in his heart, and the bed behind the two, because Emilia had drunk enough sleeping potion, also had a trend of waking up at this time.

However, this time the footsteps would not disturb the mansion upstairs. After all, it was still daytime upstairs, and "Midnight Footsteps" would not appear during the day.

Miss Belinder pinched Xia De's hand gently. She stood up alone and pressed her hand on her right shoulder. As the 【Source of Chaos】 buried deep in the flesh and blood was stimulated by her own spirit to glow, the light of the yellow moon temporarily illuminated this place. There was indeed no fourth person in the basement.

There is no restriction on using light at night, but when creating a "dark" environment to trigger the relic effect, only the light of the moon and the starry sky is allowed, otherwise it will destroy the "night" and make the relic leave temporarily. In fact, Xia De is better at using the power of the moon, but he has more important tasks.

After confirming that the light of the yellow moon was bright, the frequency of the footsteps appearing temporarily decreased. Xia De's right hand quickly held Emilia's hand, who was about to wake up. His left hand picked up the reagent bottle and drank the same sleeping potion as Emilia just now, and then curled up on the ground like Miss Matilda in the morning, with his head leaning on the pillow that had been specially treated for Emilia, and he fell into a deep sleep.

Thoughts fell in the dream, Xia De's purpose was to enter Emilia's dream to stabilize her state. An important condition for expelling 【Midnight Footsteps】 is that the person entangled by the relic must be in a sleep state, otherwise the relic is completely invisible.

The effect of the potion was quite powerful, and Xia De, who closed his eyes, felt dizzy almost immediately. When he "woke up", he found himself in a forest he had never seen before. There was snow on the ground and trees, and a silver moon above his head. He felt that this moon appeared here because of his appearance.

It was night at this moment, and the forest was making a rustling sound in the night wind that was not very strong. The surrounding scenery was not very clear, but this was not because the moonlight was weak, but because the owner of the dream was waking up.

"Where is Emilia?"

Xia De was not a dream master like Dr. Doctor Doctor Shi Nai De, and he would definitely encounter things he couldn't solve in the dream. But fortunately, at least this time the trouble was not very big, because the footsteps soon came from the depths of the forest, and then the blond elf ran over and appeared in front of Xia De:

"Xia De, run, that thing is coming!"

She didn't give Xia De a chance to speak, held Xia De's hand, and took Xia De to run towards the depths of the forest together. Xia De didn't know what was chasing them behind him. He could only feel that when Emilia grabbed his hand, the dream immediately stabilized a bit.

This was also the reason why Xia De entered Emilia's dream instead of Miss Belinder's. Compared to the witch, the elf girl was indeed more trusting of Xia De.

At first, Emilia took Xia De to run, but soon it became Xia De holding Emilia's hand to run. The moonlight in the dream was originally very weak, but after Xia De appeared, that silver moon clearly illuminated this forest that seemed to have no edge.

Xia De didn't know how Emilia had such a dream of being chased. He originally thought this was a "terror dream". Most people have done this kind of dream of being chased by bad things. When Dr. Doctor Doctor Shi Nai De talked to him about dream analysis, he specifically mentioned this kind of dream as an example.

But soon Xia De knew he had guessed wrong. The theme of this dream was definitely not terror. Because although he knew there was something chasing them behind, the dream didn't become gloomy and terrifying because of this, and Xia De, the outsider of the dream, didn't instinctively feel the fear that didn't belong to him.
