Chapter 4110: Shadow of the Yellow Moon

"Sniff~ Sniff~ This way!"

After Xia De and Viga joined forces to repel another batch of corpses wearing skin-objects, Ali, who was sniffing around, had her eyes light up. She tugged at Xia De's sleeve and pointed very affirmatively to the southwest corner of the banquet hall:

"Right there, there must be what we are looking for!"

The corpses were scattered around, but the skin-objects had disappeared after being defeated. As the darkness lasted longer and longer, the originally tidy clubhouse banquet hall seemed to have been abandoned for more than a hundred years, and the food on the long table had long since rotted into a black, strange appearance.

The door Ali pointed to seemed to have been hit hard by a huge force, and the door was stuck on the crooked door frame and could not be pushed open at all, so Xia De broke the door with his sword. The silver light ball flew in first, illuminating the equally dilapidated banquet hall behind. After confirming safety, the three entered together, and this place was clearly different from all the previous banquet halls.

"The power of the Witch Emperor? How could it appear here?"

Viga, as a Great Witch of Chaos, immediately sensed the power remaining in this room.

And this banquet hall was more dilapidated and messy than any of the rooms just now. It was as if a battle had broken out here many years ago. Various furniture such as long tables, sofas, and cabinets were mostly lying on the dust-covered ground in the form of fragments.

And in the center of the room's floor, a sword mark that still emitted yellow light in the darkness had not been completely erased by the relic's whisper elements even after thousands of years.

That sword mark almost split the entire room in two. Viga could even imagine the scene of the unknown Great Witch standing on the other side of the room, slashing with one sword and shattering everything in this room:

"It should be a trace left by the Fifth Era. The Great Witch who swung the sword was very strong. I suspect the other party was a demigod; otherwise, the 【Skin-Object Clubhouse】 would have no reason not to be able to deal with the traces left by the other party."

Viga said, but she did not understand:

"But what did Ali bring us here for?"

"It's right here!"

The little unicorn was very certain that she had not pointed the wrong way. Xia De looked at that golden sword mark and was also very certain that Ali had indeed found what he wanted to find most:

"This sword mark was left by the Moonlight Great Sword."

Viga looked at him in surprise, and Xia De nodded gently:

"Do you remember Blaney O'Lannod whom I introduced to you?"

Viga suddenly realized:

"That first librarian of Saint Byron's? So, that lady also came here during the Fifth Era?"

"And it is very likely that this sword mark is information she left for me."

This glowing sword mark had lethal dangerous power for skin-objects, but Xia De, Viga, and Ali could safely approach it.

Ali was proud that she had helped Xia De again, and Viga was shocked that the power of the Fifth Era demigod witch was so strong. And Xia De knelt on one knee beside the sword mark and reached out his hand.

The moment he touched the sword mark, he seemed to hear Blaney's soft sigh. The face of the yellow-haired witch clearly appeared in Xia De's heart, and then came "She"'s gentle reminder:

【Outlander, you have touched the Witch Echo · O'Lannod. Since you have already touched an echo from the same source, you will not gain voting rights this time.】

Compared to the witch echoes remaining in other areas, this echo had very poor stability due to the erosion of the relic's power. But even so, as the yellow moonlight in the sword mark resonated with the moonlight at Xia De's fingertips, Blaney's phantom still stood up from the light of the sword mark, holding the edge of her skirt.

Ali was not surprised at all. The white-haired girl just made a waving gesture to say hello. Viga, on the other hand, was so surprised looking at that face that she couldn't speak. She didn't quite understand how everyone was looking for things together, and how they ended up finding a Witch Emperor.

Blaney's phantom smiled at Xia De. She raised her hand wanting to touch Xia De's face, but her hand just passed through his face.

"I... Fio... Teacher..."

Her voice was intermittent and unrecognizable at first, but at least that most critical sentence, with the help of the Red Dragon Queen who possessed the power of the Time Dragon, was clearly engraved in the depths of this echo:

"Xia De, open the key here, go find the teacher, and complete the closed loop of time." (Fifth Era Common Language)

The glowing figure walked toward Xia De and then hugged him. This time, Xia De felt a physical body.

"Completely destroying the clubhouse also requires our power. We are waiting for you in the Fifth Era."

The light and shadow dissipated from Xia De's arms, and only a small amount of bright yellow moonlight attached to Xia De, bringing Xia De a very short "Blessing of the Yellow Moon," protecting him from getting lost.

This witch echo did not contain much power, but as long as the most important information had been delivered, then this echo had completed all its missions:

"I want to use the time key here."

He turned his head and said to Ali and Viga. Ali didn't have much reaction, while Viga asked:

"You want to leave temporarily?"

"Yes, I'll be back in three seconds. Looking at it this way, Blaney, who left this echo, should have met me who is about to start the last leg of the journey. It seems I have indeed made up my mind to eradicate this place and even seek help from the teacher and the others."

"That's fine."

Viga actually still didn't understand what had happened, but since Xia De was only leaving for three seconds, she had the patience to wait:

"I have only heard other witches talk about what you are about to do. I don't know how big the risk is."

She kissed Xia De on the cheek:

"Then take care of everything. Ali and I will wait for you here."

"Be careful! Waiting for you to come back!"

Afterward, the unicorn girl also stood on tiptoe and kissed Xia De on the cheek. If Emilia saw this, the little sprite would definitely be very angry, but Viga didn't think there was anything wrong with it; instead, she thought the pure kiss offered by the unicorn was some kind of blessing with lucky power.

【Night Watchman】 and other relics on his body were temporarily handed over to Viga by Xia De. The spellcasting materials that the witches needed to replenish and the materials that Miss Felianna was preparing to make dolls, Xia De had already brought them all. He had also prepared the power to suppress the crystallization of withering and the miracles related to flesh distortion.

He took out the time key covered with cracks and took out the prepared door pendant:

"May the World Tree protect me in infinite time."

The key was inserted directly into the extremely tiny keyhole on the pendant. Before opening the door, Xia De nodded to Viga and Ali again. As the white mist pouring out from the door swallowed Xia De, the pendant fell to the ground, but was caught by Viga.

"Is his cat still on him in the form of a toy?"

Viga thought to herself, and then noticed that after Xia De left, the bright yellow sword mark that had existed here for thousands of years finally completed its mission and dissipated.

And at the same time the sword mark dissipated, several figures appeared out of thin air in the room. The skinners holding small knives finally found Viga, but before the witch could raise her sword to cast a spell, Xia De's hand burning with fire pressed on her shoulder, and on his shoulder, the witch as beautiful as a violet was revealing a smile.

(Little Mia is running...)

【Message from the Ancient God "Father of the Infinite Tree":】

【Autumn, 3030, Fifth Era, Southern Continent, Blood-Stained Factory.】

【Event: Birth of a Newborn.】

【Duration: 100 minutes (3/3).】

【You have obtained additional information.】

【The figure of the Father of the Infinite Tree watches you.】

【The Ancient God of Time gives you a test.】

【Assist the Old God "One-Armed Prince" to complete the birth of a new life.】

【The Father of the Infinite Tree will give you a reward: Miracle - Veil of Night, Divine Art Contract · Dragon Maid Contract.】

"Didn't use the door at home this time, time couldn't double, otherwise it would have been two hundred minutes!"

Xia De, who appeared in the thick white mist, suddenly realized this problem. "She" smiled gently:

【Do you want to use the extra time to have a secret meeting with Blaney O'Lannod?】

"... And Miss Felianna, Fiona, and it has been a long time since I last saw Miss Wilde. Gina helped me so much this time, so I have to say hello properly before leaving."

"She" smiled gently. Xia De, who was increasingly dissatisfied with the 【Skin-Object Clubhouse】, was not in a hurry to take the first step out of the white mist, but took a deep breath to adjust his state. His consumption in the 【Skin-Object Clubhouse】 was not great, but he was also affected by the scene-type relic.

At this moment, having broken away from the clubhouse, his mental state was recovering rapidly, and he was also ready to face the challenges in the 【Blood-Stained Factory】 again:

"Strive for thirty minutes, speed-run the Blood-Stained Factory!"

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

【So confident?】

"Miss Felianna is by my side this time, and the 【Flower of Corroded Moon】 I mastered completely counters those flesh distortion bodies. Except for the gods that might appear in the deepest part of the factory, there isn't much here that can stump me."

Xia De patted his chest to prepare to officially enter this mission, but after he patted, the inside of his left chest clothes wriggled immediately, and then Little Mia poked its head out from the button:

"Meow?"

The cat looked around curiously. Xia De blinked, then pressed Little Mia's small head with his right index finger and pressed the cat back into his clothes:

"The next adventure is very dangerous. If you don't want to become very strange, Mia, be a toy obediently."

But this time the cat clearly didn't want to do this. However, the obedient cat didn't directly resist Xia De's finger. After shrinking back into his clothes, it meowed, and anyone could hear the sorrow in the meow.

"But it's really dangerous... Alright, after seeing Miss Felianna in a while, I will ask her if there is any way to protect you temporarily. But once a battle occurs, you must be obedient."

The cat stopped meowing immediately. It seemed that it could really understand what Xia De was saying. ===== CHAPTER 4111 =====
