Chapter 3566

Violet, who was hugging Xia De at this moment, was an echo from a memory in the past, but Xia De could still feel her gentleness:

"The fire is hidden in a hidden place. As long as you want to solve the trouble of this snowy mountain, you will find it sooner or later. It is also part of the heavy seals here. Sister Belen did not take away that flame, not only because of the need to contact you, but also because this flame cannot be easily touched."

Gentle lips kissed Xia De's lips:

"May you always miss me on the other side of time, Xia De, see you next time."

"See you next time."

Xia De spoke at this time, so the colors around surged again, and in Matilda's view, Xia De was just in a trance for a while.

When his hand moved away from the oil painting, this exquisite work of art was swallowed by the raging flames. Violet's voice entered Xia De's heart, and she said:

"To prevent you from only watching the oil painting and forgetting to miss the real me, this cannot be left to you."

The oil painting and the easel were burned to ashes in just over ten seconds, and in the ashes, several colorful streams of light floated towards Xia De, giving him new power.

【Outlander, you obtained the miracle "Lost Curtain": After casting the spell, confuse the surrounding area, making detection means including spatial perception unable to perceive the situation inside the area, making the area assimilate with the surrounding environment. Corresponds to the "Guidance" spirit rune.】

This is not an illusion, but a power woven by the Great Witch of "Chaos" with "Chaos" as the core. For example, when camping in the dangerous wild or exploring an ancient castle, if you need to rest for a long time, you need similar miracle spells to protect the camp.

If Xia De can understand this miracle thoroughly enough, he can even hide an area directly in the spatial sense—for example, hiding No. 6 St. Deran Square, making people only see that No. 7 is next to No. 5.

Although he was happy to obtain a new miracle, the most important harvest of this search was to prove the speculation of Sister Daifulin and Xia De, that is, Violet and the others left things for him beside the initial fire.

He originally only thought of the 【One-Shot Kill Pistol】, but didn't expect those strange bones from last time. During the adventure in the wasteland, Xia De learned that it was the 【God of the Grave】 who split the remains of the Angel of Death, and He also retained the foot bone of the left leg and the lower leg bone connected to it (Chapter 3404).

Xia De thought he could find those angel remains during that journey, but all he took away when he left were fragments of the blindfold. Now it seems that those remains were clearly handed over to the "Gravedigger of the Underworld Coffin" by the god to guard, and Xia De obtained them, but didn't have time to check before leaving.

【If you weren't being intimate with that Witch Emperor in the castle at the end, you should have had time.】

"She" kindly reminded, and Xia De pretended not to hear:

"I touched the witch echo left by Chloe when I first came to the snowy mountain, and now I met Violet's... Miss Feilian and the others, wouldn't they have been to the snowy mountain too?"

No one could answer this question, but at least nominally, Miss Feilian, Blaney, and Fiona had nothing to do with this snowy mountain.

【Or you can think of it this way, Violet sent the ship girl, Chloe sent the ice maid, so what might Feilian send?】

"She" asked softly in Xia De's ear.

Xia De thought for a while:

"Most likely a dragon maid... no, no, Miss Ilese and Winnie are not items, how could they be sent around?"

"She" continued to smile gently, seeming very happy.

There was nothing else in the dark room. The echo left by Violet was actually just an insurance to ensure that Xia De could get some reminders. But she was not sure if Xia De could find this place, or if this place would be discovered by others in advance, so except for the oil painting that would explode if touched by anyone other than Xia De, she left nothing behind.

Xia De sighed at the care of the ladies on the other side of time for himself, and missed the adventures of the past. He was about to explain his experience in the "Old Dream" to Matilda, but as soon as he turned sideways, the blonde maid hugged him.

"It's over, right?"

She asked softly.

"Yes... what's wrong?"

The hair on Matilda's temples rubbed against Xia De's cheek.

"The day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow the young lady will arrive here. When we set off just now, I was thinking that this is probably the last chance for us to be alone before the big event of the snowy mountain ends."

Her voice became lower and lower, but because her mouth had reached Xia De's ear, Xia De still heard it very clearly.

"I think so."

"Then..."

Matilda asked in Delarian almost in a whisper:

"Do you want to stay here for a while?"

She didn't give Xia De a chance to answer, and her red lips kissed Xia De.

(Little Mia is running...)

Although Xia De and Matilda stayed in that secret room for a bit too long, the maid ladies who followed knew the truth that "some things should not be asked." Of course, although it was already 4:30 in the afternoon when the group returned to the big ship at the Kael-Todd Town pier, the Great Witches also didn't notice what the maid captain of Moon Bay had done.

Although the trip to the abandoned castle failed to find clues directly, the appearance of the witch echo confirmed Xia De's idea, and also connected the demon and Mr. Snake—

If Mr. Snake wants to get out of trouble, he must get rid of the initial fire as one of the sealing means, and what the demon wants to find is in the same place as the flame.

Xia De didn't know if the demon knew that the 【One-Shot Kill Pistol】 and the flame were in the same location. If it knew, then his two enemies would likely join forces.

"But what does the evil god want to do?"

He originally thought that nothing else would happen today, and originally wanted to prepare for the last use of the "Whispering Hill" key tomorrow morning when he went home in the evening, but after returning to the ship and just finishing talking about the castle with Megan and Xi Wei, they were just about to tell Xia De that Vanessa had just arrived on the island and was excitedly pulling Claire to inspect the island's terrain and mineral deposits, when the girl arranged in the city sent news:

"Found the third person suspected of trading with Mr. Snake."

This clue was not found for nothing. The time he saw Mr. Snake in the temple, Xia De used 10 points to exchange for little Belen and asked it to say the reason for doing these things. When it mentioned that all the miracles it gave would lead to the destiny of destruction, it clearly cited Clement Krug who played cards with Xia De, little Belen's parents, and another example.

The content of the third example is "people who want to obtain beauty will only bring death to others in the end." Considering that the snake's range of activities should not leave Fatumunster Island, at most extending to the bay area, then as long as you investigate the death records of the past two months locally and find events with abnormalities, this example should be easy to find the corresponding object.

This line of thinking was indeed no problem. Last weekend, with the help of the Chronos City Police Department, the church screened out the cases to be found. And there was not one deceased, but two.

The autopsy results of ordinary forensic doctors showed that the cause of death for both deceased was sudden death caused by heart disease, so they were not linked together before the church investigation. But when the church sorcerers checked the two corpses that had not yet been buried, they found that they clearly died because of mental exhaustion.

But the subsequent investigation fell into a deadlock. Both deceased were foreign merchants. After spending time investigating their itinerary locally, the common feature of the two was that they met beautiful girls in the city and died suddenly for no reason after spending time with them.

And the descriptions of the two girls by the subordinates and friends of the two deceased were completely different except that they were both very, very beautiful.

The church therefore suspected that the other party used illusions or even had the ability to transform, and the subsequent investigation based on the appearance of the "two people" also fell into a deadlock.

On the evening of this Tuesday, the girl arranged on Victoria Street received a letter from the 【Jester Troupe】. Although the church's investigation fell into a quagmire, the jesters discovered some traces that might be related to the "third case" in the process of continuing to track down the "Apostle of Desire."

The letter did not mention the origin of the matter in detail, but gave an address, so Xia De, who received the letter, set off for the city immediately. Mr. Mortis also told Xia De that if he wanted to appear with his companions, regardless of the gender of the companions, he must find a sorcerer with high enough resistance to "charm."

There are still Xi Wei and Megan on the ship. Finally, Xi Wei set off with Xia De. When the two arrived at Martin Street in the western residential area of Chronos City in the twilight, the brilliant sunset had already reflected the snowy mountain in the distance into orange-red.

This neighborhood belongs to the area where the wealthy middle class of Chronos City lives. Each household is an independent two-story house with a small garden. The lawns are neatly managed, and uniform mailboxes are neatly set up at the door of each household. This is the residence that most people in this era dream of.

The carriage stopped at the door of No. 14 Martin Street. When Xia De and Xi Wei got off the carriage, a middle-aged man opened the courtyard gate to welcome their arrival. This person is a sorcerer and his level is Eighth Tier. Judging by his appearance, he is a local of Chronos City. He is probably like Mr. Mortis, both are manpower of the 【Jester Troupe】 locally.

Mr. Mortis and other masked jesters were waiting for Xia De and the others on the first floor of the house, but Xia De didn't see the owners of this house.

Mr. Mortis stood at the stairs and told Xia De about what happened here:

"The male owner of this house is a very famous watchmaker in the city. He has a high-end pocket watch shop in Chronos City. The current Grand Duke Lagerson has sent orders to his shop. About a week ago, his wife discovered that her husband would come home late every day. At first, she thought that the negotiations between the two countries brought a large number of customers who wanted to buy high-end pocket watches to the local area, but later discovered that her husband actually had a young dating object."
