Chapter 2551: Signature, Fog, and Call
"Miss Danister can see these mists, but Miss Charlotte Bell and the others can't... Do they need time talent or to be cursed by time?"
Xia De frowned and thought.
The time from Xia De arriving at the Accordion Inn had actually passed for a full three hours, so it was already afternoon. Xia De didn't know what the rule of this time change was, but clearly, the matter of Miss Winslet's room 321 was still not solved, because that place was still a blank in "Strong Spatial Perception."
The white fog in room 317 was gradually dissipating, but when Xia De looked out the window unconsciously, he found that the entire Vista City was shrouded in this misty thin fog.
The ordinary people on the street clearly still couldn't see these mists, so the street was still very lively, and it seemed that the afternoon session of the "Golden Hall Concert" was in the stage of audience entry.
And when Xia De opened the door and brought Miss Danister to the corridor, only witch apprentice Miss Bell was left in the corridor filled with white fog.
She was surprised to see Xia De and Miss Danister push the door out of room 317:
"You came out! Is the matter solved?"
"Only the matter of 317 is solved, what is going on with the fog outside?"
Xia De asked, Miss Bell was confused for a moment, and then replied:
"I still can't see the fog you mentioned, but it should be spreading outward as time goes by, right? I was worried that someone could see the fog and investigate it, but until now, no one has appeared."
The fog under his feet, according to "She," was not a physical entity, but a phenomenon produced by time's influence on space, so it was not flowing, but growing slowly in stillness. Since Miss Danister could also see this kind of fog, Xia De was very sure that someone in the city must be able to discover the abnormality, but they hadn't investigated here yet.
"Give this to you, this was something that appeared out of thin air in front of the door about forty minutes ago."
Miss Bell also handed the note and a gold ring that Xia De was very familiar with to him.
The handwriting on the note was clearly Miss Winslet's—
【We encountered some trouble, a very dangerous enemy, can cope for the time being. The method given by the Lord: use the ring to enter the Council, let the passage intersect with the inn corridor, and lead the fog into the passage. The signature on the back of the note will guide our direction.】
On the back of the note was "Adele Isabella" written in floral letters, which was the autograph of that thirteen-rank great witch.
Miss Danister might not understand the meaning, but Xia De knew that this meant that after singing the "Witch's Song," a brick passage would appear, and at the end of the passage was the white fog door leading to the 【Witch Council】.
He still didn't know where that passage was, only knowing that the night passage connecting "Eternal Night City" and "Randall Valley" that he accidentally established when he took Fiona away from "Eternal Night City" with a lock in those years also appeared as a similar passage.
But this didn't prevent him from knowing that this method might really be feasible:
"Which one of the six ancient witch rings is this ring? Did you try it just now?"
Xia De asked Miss Bell again, and the latter was somewhat surprised that Xia De also knew about these:
"I wanted to ask you to find other witches to come and help... I tried it just now, but those white mists refused to enter the passage... This is Miss's ring, 【Ancient Witch's Gold Ring · Right Three】."
"No need to find other witches, am I not here? I'll come."
He said this, but Miss Bell was very panicked:
"But I am not an official great witch, I don't know if I can bring you into that..."
"I'm not asking you to bring me in, I mean I'll go in myself, you two wait for me outside."
Saying this, he reached out and put the gold ring on his finger. With a light rub of the ring, the bright golden glow flashed by.
Xia De didn't care about the astonishment of the young black-haired girl and the confusion of Miss Danister, but rummaged in his pocket and took out the magic potion "Spirit Brightening Agent" that Father Augustus gave last Saturday, which could "permanently purify the soul and remove the curse":
"Miss Danister, you take this. If you really need to fight, drink this magic potion and try it. Maybe it won't have an effect, but at least it won't be harmful."
As for the two umbilical cords, Xia De carried them with him, Miss Winslet might need them:
"I'm leaving now, you two go to 317 first, I remember that when entering that passage, it was required that there was no one nearby."
Saying this, he was about to open his mouth to sing, but Miss Charlotte Bell grabbed his wrist and stared at him:
"Mr. Watson, what exactly are you..."
"I am male, many people can prove it."
The simple witch apprentice still didn't understand, but she still followed Miss Danister to room 317 temporarily.
Xia De looked down at the ring he was wearing, prayed softly, hoping that when he sang in a while, the residents on both sides of the corridor would not open the door, and then took a step forward:
"The princess in the castle will not understand, the freedom of walking in the world is our pursuit."
"Meet a witch at the intersection full of lavender, where are you going, go and pick that bunch of herbs."
The sudden wind blew from the window at the end of the corridor, the wind was not violent, but as the wind blew, the light seemed to be blown, and large shadows were gradually suppressing the light of the autumn afternoon.
"Pick up white snow on the top of the snow mountain, watch the sun in the depths of the desert."
"If you can meet us, dear girl~~"
The inn's wooden floor was naturally merging and intersecting with the stone brick ground of the passage in the shadows, and the white fog under his feet dissipated as Xia De moved forward, but the fact was that as the passage gradually replaced the scenery of the corridor, the white fog did not enter the passage.
Miss Bell encountered the same situation just now, but the difference between Xia De and that witch apprentice was that Xia De had time talent.
While singing, he used his heart for two purposes and recited the spell in his heart, so the black time key in his hand turned into the Staff of Yggdrasil.
The bottom of the long staff touched the fog layer below and the white ash attached to the passage floor, Xia De even just tried to drag the long staff forward, and the fog that had no fluidity was actually driven to surge forward.
【Staff of Yggdrasil】 really had a very strong time effect.
"Please call our names softly, please ask your doubts."
"In the flower cluster where lilies bloom, or, in the place where sunflowers face west."
The narrow brick passage and the inn corridor did not have a very clear boundary, it seemed that he just took another step forward, and he completely entered the passage illuminated by torches on both sides.
In the dim yellow light of the torches that seemed to never go out, the thick fog expanded rapidly until the concentration became almost similar to the inn corridor. The white ash on the ground left Xia De's clear footprints, and Xia De, who was walking in the narrow and dilapidated passage, knew that he had succeeded, and his singing soon came to the end:
"Please put on a beautiful dress and pick up purple thyme."
"The person you love and the person who loves you are all here, this hall filled with sunshine."
【Outlander, the concept of time is being seriously confused, please do not use the power of time easily here.】
【Outlander, please do not use space jump ability here, otherwise it is highly likely to enter a random time point.】
Xia De, standing in the foggy passage, looked forward, and white fog like silk threads floated out from the white fog door, which was the door leading to the 【Witch Council】. He looked down at the note with the autograph of "Adele Isabella" he was holding, and when he looked up again, the door of the inn room 321, which had the door number 321 hanging, was embedded in the side wall of the passage.
Even though he hadn't done anything yet, he had a premonition that he could open this door as long as he used a little force.
But before he did so, "She" said again:
【Pocket watch.】
"What?"
The Outlander frowned slightly, but still reached for the silver lady's pocket watch in his pocket, and then looked down at his feet violently.
On the white ash covering the stone bricks, a white glowing light mark half a palm wide appeared there. The glowing rune had a stable light, and Xia De of course knew what this was:
"However, how could... This is the entrance to the Witch Council, time is seriously confused here, the signature on the note in my hand has the power of Isabella... actually can be like this? Then if I create such a time confusion accident again, can I..."
【Please do not destroy time stability at will.】
"She" reminded gently, Xia De was dazed for a moment, and then asked again:
"The Adele I called out with this rune shouldn't be the one behind the door, right?"
"She" just chuckled, so Xia De knew the answer, he stepped back and said in the most standard Delarion language:
"Adele Isabella!"
The voice fell, and the glowing rune radiated more intense white light upward. In that floating white light shadow, the golden-haired lady kneeling on one knee revealed her figure.
She lifted the hem of her skirt and stood up slowly, and when she looked up and saw Xia De, she also let Xia De see that beautiful and exquisite face with a tear mole under her right eye again. The golden eyes met his, and both knew that the other party had thousands of words to say:
"Long time no see, Xia De, since the Battle of Moon Bay, I have been looking forward to you calling me again. In a while, talk to me about how you defeated... after I left."
Golden long hair was scattered behind her, and the smiling lady was originally greeting Xia De, but then looked around in surprise:
"Wait, not Saint-Dran Square, here is... but after the end of the world, didn't this place collapse? Wait, the time is wrong, you found a way to call me out in the present era again!"
Adele knew this passage, and also knew that fog door, but clearly didn't know that inn room door.
"Adele, I need your help again." ===== CHAPTER 2552 =====
