"Alright, no matter what, you are really amazing. I counted just now, there were fifteen Ring Mages on the scene, and you were actually able to suppress them all at once."

Xia De praised again, and the doctor immediately shook his head:

"That's because they all use demonic power, and I have a natural suppression of these people. And you also know what power I fear most. The 【Fog Crow Brotherhood】 obviously won't use that kind of power, otherwise, let alone whether I could beat that 11th-ring mage just now, I wouldn't even be able to easily defeat a Ring Ringed Ringed Shushi of the same level as me."

Although there was some modesty in this, what the doctor said was also the truth. The 【Fog Crow Brotherhood】 was naturally restrained by him, so he could show such strong power just now.

It's just that judging from the number of people in the camp, these Ring Mages should not be all members of the Brotherhood. It's just that Xia De had no intersection with them for the time being, so there was no need to be curious about other people's secrets:

"Then since the materials are ready, are we still meeting on Monday night? It's already Sunday, can you finish the preparation in one day?"

Xia De asked again, and the doctor was very confident:

"Not one day, but two days. It's only 11:00 on Sunday morning now. We are still meeting on Monday night, don't forget to bring that book."

Saying that, he turned and left. After the doctor walked away, the owl holding the long sword fell from the sky. She let go of her claws at a height of 10 meters, and when Xia De caught 【Night Watchman】, the owl also landed accurately on Xia De's shoulder.

She did not discuss the friend just now with Xia De:

"Found it, the eggshell guided me, and I dug out a rusty iron box under a big tree in the camp area, which contained a wooden key."

That key was not a time key, but it was not an ordinary item either, and Xia De almost immediately realized what the role of this key was.

So after meeting up with Sylvia and the others, the group returned to the ship on Yulun Lake. They happened to catch up with the lunch on the Radiant Messenger, and after lunch, Xia De took out the wooden board left on the ship, and then looked forward to aligning the key dug out in the camp with the symbol of "door."

But nothing happened.

"Try tapping a few times."

Miss Ilesa, who was very experienced, said on the side. At this time, the maid ladies were cleaning the dining table, and the girls who didn't need to go out in the afternoon were all watching what Xia De was doing.

Miss Danister went to contact the church and hadn't returned yet, Vanessa continued to go out with Xi Wei, so Miss Sylvia was currently left in the hotel. Luweiya, Ajelina, Dorothy, Flora, Grandma Cassandra, and Xi Wei were all there. They saw Xia De tap the wooden board with the tip of the key twice, and then with a fierce force, the key "pierced" the wooden board directly.

But looking at the back of the wooden board, the key clearly did not pierce through.

"Is this the 'unlocking' key to open the seal?"

Xi Wei asked curiously, Xia De tried to turn the key, but the range was very slight. The leaf patterns around the wooden board did not disappear or light up, but the patterns carved on the surface of the wooden board were lighting up:

"The lock on the wooden board has nothing to do with this key. Someone put something else in the wooden board, and this key is to open that thing... Miss Ilesa, is it safe for me to open this lock here?"

Three huge cannon barrels appeared behind the ship girl, aiming at Xia De's hands:

"This will be safe."

She said so, but in fact, the cannon barrels were just joking with Xia De, and everyone felt the wonderful changes outside the walls of this banquet hall. She was separating the space where this banquet hall was located from the inside of the ship. In this way, even if this room was damaged, it would not affect other parts of the ship.

It's just that in this way, the maid ladies couldn't enter and exit normally for the time being. So Miss Bell and Miss Swift greeted everyone to put down the work in their hands, and also came to see what would happen next.

With a click, Xia De turned the key, but everyone who was ready for battle was ready for battle. Ajelina was even pulled by Dorothy to the wall, but no danger occurred.

Everyone saw the symbols carved on the surface of the wooden board being lit up one by one, and then the light gathered to the center of the wooden board, until a huge square light and shadow was projected above the wooden board.

So Xia De pinched in the air with his left hand, relying on the ability to control light to dim the light in the banquet hall, making those light and shadows clearer.

And with the appearance of light and shadow, fine snow falling sounds echoed around, and then the wind roared. Originally, it was just a light and shadow that spread, but the sound of whistling wind and goose feather snow falling became louder and louder, until people could no longer distinguish whether the sound came from the picture or around.

And in the center of the light and shadow, an egg buried in the snow only revealed the top of the eggshell in the thick snow.

Xia De then put the wooden board on the table and pushed it gently to let it slide to the center of the long table. Immediately, the light and shadow also moved to the center of the banquet hall, so that everyone could see it very clearly.

And from his position, a line of Karsenrik letters appeared on the left side of the screen:

【Sixth Era 227, Deep Winter.】

"This is the year I divined that the dragon egg was born."

Luweiya's voice appeared in the wind and snow, and Flora judged:

"The pattern of this dragon egg is consistent with the eggshell fragments we found. This is the egg of that dragon beast."

Their faces were illuminated by this piece of light and shadow, and Grandma Cassandra said:

"Judging from the thickness of the snow, the main body of this egg should be half a meter high. The body shape of the dragon beast bred by this kind of egg should not be as big as what we saw normally."

The wind and snow became heavier and heavier, and the dragon egg was soon completely buried in the snow. But fortunately, even if the dragon beast was not a pure-blooded dragon, it would not freeze to death because of such a harsh environment, but it would definitely have problems during hatching because of such suffering.

Time seemed to be accelerating. In the whistling cold wind, the snowflakes gradually became smaller, and the sunlight became brighter and brighter. So winter passed and spring came, and the time in the upper right corner changed to the spring of 228. Flowers and green grass growing at a speed visible to the naked eye in the mud surrounded the dragon egg.

Ants built nests around the egg that radiated temperature, and sparrows stopped on the egg to rest before flying to the distance. Long snakes prepared to attack rabbits in the grass, but after the rabbits ran away, they discovered this egg. It swam from the grass, wrapped its body around the giant egg wanting to crush it, but found it powerless, so it disappeared into the distance of the forest sea.

With a thunderous sound, Ajelina was startled, and Dorothy on the side held her hand. At the same time as the light in the picture dimmed, the sound of rain, which seemed to ring around everyone, followed. So the mud became moist, the big trees continued to grow wildly, and the wild grass had already covered half of the dragon egg.

With the arrival of summer, several heavy rains and strong winds caused the egg to move, and a passing wild boar caused the egg to cross the distance of several trees through collision, but the egg was still in the center of the light and shadow.

In the sunrise and sunset, the green forest began to turn golden bit by bit. The fallen dead leaves soon buried the dragon egg. The squirrels who came to look for pine nuts were startled after turning over the fallen leaves and seeing the egg, but seeing it motionless, they climbed up the tree and ran away quickly.

"Meow~"

Everyone was curious about why there was a cat's meow in the forest, and then followed the cat's meow, and saw Xia De knock on Little Mia's head in the dim light of the room.

Seeing no danger, Miss Ilesa released the restriction on the room. Miss Bell wanted to bring people to prepare tea and snacks for the witches and Xia De, but found that the maid ladies didn't seem to want to leave. They all wanted to see what would happen next—even Miss Swift was staring at the light and shadow.

So Miss Bell, who was pale, had to call the maid outside the door to prepare tea and snacks, while she stood at the door looking back at the room, watching the first snowflake fall beside the withered yellow leaves, so winter came again.

Flowers bloomed and withered, and the four seasons cycled rapidly. Starting from the winter of 227 in the Sixth Era, as year after year passed, the time in the light and shadow flowed faster and faster. At first, animals could still be seen walking around the egg in those springs, but soon everything was left with rapidly passing afterimages, and the egg moved constantly for various reasons year after year.

But no one took it away, and wind, frost, rain, and snow could not kill it. Only this forest was with it.

Fortunately, there was an upper limit to the acceleration of time. When the time in the light and shadow reached 247, 20 years later, it maintained the highest speed and continued to move forward.

Year after year, spring passed and summer came, summer passed and autumn arrived, autumn passed and winter arrived, and finally it was another spring. The surface of the originally clean dragon egg gradually appeared moss, but it became clean because it was licked by a group of goats, and then became dirty because it fell into a mud pit in another autumn.

It had been circulating in the forest like this. Although the stories year after year looked monotonous, everyone watched them very seriously. When the letters showing time in the picture reached 308 in the Sixth Era, the time in the light and shadow finally returned to the most normal speed.

"This is the earliest time corresponding to this tree hole."

Xia De reminded softly, but everyone was watching very seriously, so he only said one sentence. **Chapter 2848: Dragon and Man**

"This is the earliest time corresponding to this tree hole."

Xia De then whispered a reminder, but everyone was watching very intently, so he only said that one sentence.
