Chapter 2531 Tree Hole
In the first record, the "time traveler" claimed that he fell into the sea after passing through a tree hole, and was then rescued by a small boat. He learned from the witcher on the boat that the time was the Demon Age of the Third Age.
There were seven people on the boat, all of whom had escaped from an island that had been destroyed by evil spirits. Unfortunately, after the "traveler" was rescued and became the eighth person on the boat, the demons hidden in the boat began to kill people one by one, and they killed one person per night with great accuracy.
When there were only five people left on the boat, the suspicious people began to suspect that the unknown "traveller" and the other woman with a deformed right hand were the devil, so both of them were thrown off the boat.
The "traveller" had no idea about what happened next. When he woke up, he was leaning against the ancient tree to rest, but the hole in the tree was gone.
The "time traveler" in the second record was a female, and her report was relatively simple. According to her, she passed through a tree hole and came to a gorgeous palace. She was discovered and arrested by a maid. Because of her lack of common sense and some strange behavior, she attracted the owner of the palace.
The extremely beautiful palace hostess soon realized that she came from a different time, but before the beautiful and elegant lady could do anything, the "traveller" woke up again in the woods.
The third record is the briefest, because when the writer of the parchment found him, the man who had passed through the tree hole had gone completely crazy.
The writer of the parchment used many methods, and finally extracted some memories at the cost of completely destroying his brain, but this record only contained one sentence:
[The sky is yellow, the sun is black, people are alive, and the world is dead. ]
Others might find this sentence baffling, but Shade raised his eyebrows in surprise. He clearly felt that the third record described the scene of the apocalyptic era of the "Sixth Era of the Past". The yellow refers to the yellow sand all over the sky, and he still remembers the black sun. There is no doubt that the dead world, and the living people are probably the description of the madman himself.
"This golden parchment comes from the Fourth Age.
Therefore, the man in the first record is suspected to have gone from the Dark Age to the past Third Age Demon Age, the woman in the second record is suspected to have gone from the Dark Age to the future Fifth Age Witch Age, and the last one went directly to the Doomsday, but it is unknown which Doomsday it was. "
Compared with the previous two records about "the moon", this record obviously attracted Xia De more.
Whether it was the "time tree hole" or the experiences of the three suspected "time travelers", they all made him think of many things. For example, if there were doors in the spaces left by the ancient gods, then the "time doors" leading to the time corridors would be this kind of tree holes.
The three people who traveled through time through these strange tree holes, some went to the past, some went to the future. Although it is unknown how they came back from a time that did not belong to them, it is clear that this kind of travel is not like "only watching" like the time key, but truly becoming a part of another time.
And this kind of time travel is obviously "legal", or at least not "illegal". The writer of the parchment claimed to have examined the bodies and souls of the three "time travelers" and found no special marks on them.
Although it is also possible that the extraordinary person who left this record did not discover the ability of the "time curse", Shad is more inclined to believe that the three people were not cursed by time.
The above information is very important to Shade, who is committed to finding a way to bring the witches from the past era to this era.
The parchment manuscript of the Golden Sheep comes from the ancient Quaternary Period. Since people at that time had studied "time travel", and this manuscript is still secretly collected by the [Church of Nature and Evil], it means that research on this has definitely been ongoing for a long time.
The owner of the manuscript only said at the end that he would try to find a similar tree hole, but there was no more content after that. It was not known whether he did not find it or encountered an accident while going out.
But in short, the church believes that the content of this manuscript is true, so Shade can try to find similar tree holes in the future:
"But there are not many virgin forests in the Old World. There are some in the Pantanal Swamp, in the south of Carsenrick and in the north of Delarion. There are also large tracts of virgin forests in the Vista Woods where the 'Riverwood Town' where Miss Danister is going next is located."
He put down the parchment and looked at the Randall River Valley in front of him. The woods here were old enough, but it was clear that the so-called tree holes were not something he could find just by looking for them:
"Next time you see Long-haired Luvia, you can ask her opinion. Tree Hole"
"Meow~"
"Yes, yes, it sounds like a plot in a fairy tale, falling into a tree hole or a rabbit hole and coming to a mysterious world. But if those tree holes are really the so-called time gates, how can I grow a tree at home?"
With a touch of melancholy, he reached for the black time key hanging on his chest. Although the time key itself could enter the "Time Corridor", most people just watched. Therefore, the real way to enter the "Time Corridor" might not be through the key at all, but still to find those doors, and the time key was only one of the three conditions to open the "Time Corridor".
Of course, the above is pure speculation.
What the church did after the Battle of Moon Bay was certainly not just preparing these gifts for the "God Summoner", waiting for the oracle of God to answer the God Summoner's questions and promoting the [Seal of Night]. The "Dragon Island" that returned to the material world after the ceremony held by the chosen one of "Light" was also a headache.
Of course, Shad did not get involved in this matter. He only heard sporadic news from Iluna and Karina who occasionally visited his home.
The Church cannot be the only one to control the dragons that have separated the human civilization from the material world for the entire Sixth Epoch. Therefore, in the negotiations on the last day of the Flowery Moon, the Five Gods Church, the Three Colleges, the Prophet Association, the Witch Council, and even semi-neutral ring warlock organizations such as the Winter Choir, the Apna Library, and the Rosicrucian Order all sent representatives.
Each of the Five Churches sent a thirteenth-ring sorcerer, and the three major academies were each represented by five twelve-ring professors.
The [Witch Council] was represented by Adele Isabella, who was so arrogant that she asked all the twelve-level witches except Carina to go to the scene. This of course included Miss Aurora who was leaving for the New World, Vanessa who was far away in Moon Bay, and Miss Belindel.
In short, although Iluna and Carina did not go to the scene to observe the negotiations, they were able to vividly describe to Shade many details of the scene and the key points of the negotiations.
As for the result of the negotiation, it was not too surprising. The "Dragon Island Force" with only two thirteen-ring dragons had no advantage in the negotiation. They accepted the conditions proposed by the church, restricting their people from appearing in the human civilization world in the form of dragons, and sending "exchange students" to study in the three major colleges.
The only two conditions proposed by the dragons, besides the exchange of materials and academic exchanges, were: first, humans would not be allowed to settle on Dragon Island; second, human civilization would not be allowed to forcibly change their beliefs.
In the era when the dragons closed off Dragon Island, the belief in the five gods was not as widespread as it is today. Most of them believed in the old god, the God of Dragons - [Dragon Wing Emperor], who was the second son of the ancient god, and a small number directly believed in the ancient god [Dragon of Shining Light].
"So, the dragons didn't mention anything about the Seventh Chosen One?"
Xiade asked Iluna curiously, and Iluna nodded:
"Of course it was mentioned, but the church fooled them. The representatives of human civilization pretended not to talk about it."
But in fact, the church has no idea about the situation of the seventh chosen one. They only know that the God Summoner has entrusted the Witch Council to tell them that the Chosen One of Light has expended too much energy to save Moon Bay and needs a long time to recover.
In short, the Flower Moon passed during the vacation, and the Harvest Moon arrived in September, but Shad still didn't have to consider the adventure of the Time Key, neither the normal one nor the black one.
The arrival of September means the start of the school season, but for correspondence ring sorcerers, this only requires choosing elective courses for the fall semester.
Miss Danister has arranged all the elective courses on the moon and time for Shad, so Shad just needs to remember to attend the classes on time.
Of course, before the school started, he had already mastered his two new magics, namely Miss Danister's [Glory Moon Realm] and Miss Feliana's [Arrow of Night].
The former is a standard middle-level thaumaturgy, and Shad can sense any entity or non-entity in the moonlight within a hundred meters.
The magic he mastered - [Shadow of the Moon] ensured that he was always in the moonlight, but this magic did not guarantee that there would be moonlight around him, so [Bright Moon Awareness] only enhanced Shade's perception at night.
Shade's perception was already strong, and after mastering the magic, he even experimented a little. Turning his back, he could clearly "see" Mia jumping around in the moonlight, which was the basics. More importantly, he could even clearly "see" Dorothy's facial expressions, the degree of pupil contraction, and the skin trembling caused by her heartbeat.
Learning the witch's secret technique [Arrow of Night] was relatively difficult, but Shade finally mastered it with the help of the "Temple of Night".
To use this magic associated with the [Night] spirit rune, one must have a bow in hand. When bending the bow and shooting an arrow, a black arrow will be condensed. This is not difficult for Shade who possesses the sage-level relic [Star Mark].
