Chapter 2571 Tree Hole Association
The sound of flapping wings appeared overhead. After confirming that the elf had left, the owl landed on Shade's shoulder:
"It's normal that you don't know about the Tree Hole Association. If I hadn't specifically investigated it before coming to Vista Forest, I wouldn't have known about this organization. The rumor about the 'Time Tree Hole' has been around for a long time. Most people don't believe it, but there are still a few who do.
The Tree Hole Association is a group of people who are dedicated to finding time tree holes and traveling through time. Their organization is very small, at least according to the information I have collected, their organization is very small. And they usually do not have any public activities. They were identified as an illegal organization because they attacked a church in a rural town of the Church of Nature around 1200 and stole several relics. "
Xia De looked down at the corpse:
"Are all members of the Tree Hole Association gifted with time?"
“Most are, but they are not naturally born time gifted people.
We all know that time talents are very rare. According to the information I have, most of them have obtained time talents through abnormal means. Among them, the time acceleration magic "Speed Spell" is their most conspicuous feature, and it is also the signature magic of the [Tree Hole Association]. "
The owl flew down from Shad's shoulder and transformed into Flora Winslet beside Shad. The witch looked down at the corpse:
"Usually, you have to use range attacks to deal with the 'Speed Spell'. As long as the attack range is large enough, it doesn't matter how fast you run. In fact, there is very little information about these people. I have another rumor that cannot be confirmed."
"What rumors?"
The witch hesitated:
"The ring wizards of the [Tree Hole Association] believe that the original founder of the association was a member of the [Tree Hole Association] who accidentally came to that era from the future. Therefore, the time tree hole must exist, because the founder proved the inevitability of their existence in the future, so they believe that time travel is feasible."
"A simple question: Even if time travel is possible, what do they want to do by time travel? Do they think they can reverse what has already happened?"
Even the most powerful time gifted person that Shade knew, Luvia, could not reverse the past and could only destroy the present and recreate the future. In other words, reversing the past was more difficult than destroying time and starting over.
“I can’t answer that question either.”
Miss Winslet shook her head.
"Take this body with you. Let's find a suitable place in the woods. I will summon the souls of these two people."
"Are you okay now?"
Xia De asked hesitantly. She was not in a good condition at all in the mansion just now.
"Don't worry, I'm proficient in more than just Transfiguration, and I didn't do much in the battle just now."
At this point, she praised softly:
"You are excellent, even better than I thought. With divine arts similar to the 'Seal of Sidon' of the Church of the Sun and the 'Seal of Night' recently shared by the Godcaller, plus your own reaction speed that can almost keep up with the 'Rapid Spell' and your powerful fire control magic, it is hard to imagine who can defeat you head-on at the level of the eighth ring. So what did Danister teach you?"
Shade smiled and took out the canvas to cover the body. The witch watched him perform the toy transformation spell and suddenly asked:
"By the way, who was that elf just now? Are there pure-blooded elves in the territory of Riverwood? I'm sure she saw through my Transfiguration. She's terrifying. Even in my prime, I wouldn't be willing to face her in this forest. She's like the embodiment of this forest."
"I thought you would ask this question right away. Don't worry about her. She is my friend and knows this place very well. If we encounter difficulties in local investigations in the future, we may need to ask her for help."
"But you're new here, so how come you have local friends?"
"Because I happen to be really good at making friends."
After cleaning up the bodies, the two continued to go deeper into the forest. The witch turned into an owl again, and then because she was annoyed that Shade was walking too slowly, she turned Shade into a cat. Then she grabbed the cat and flew him high into the sky.
In fact, Shade just didn't want to turn into a group of red butterflies in front of her. Now this move has been known to the witches because of "God Summoner". In the previous battle, he didn't use the Silver Moon series of spells because he didn't want to be exposed too early, but there was no need to use all his strength against two ring magicians whose level was lower than his own.
Miss Winslet finally stopped at a stream in the woods, where she directed Shad to dig two shallow graves on the pebbles and place the two bodies in them.
Finally, she used magic to dig out the four eyes of the corpse, and personally found four stones that were closest to a circle and placed them in the eye sockets.
After doing all this, she chanted the spell. She didn't use any spellcasting materials. After just a moment, an extremely cold wind suddenly blew through the forest.
The light in the forest seemed to dim a little, and then the body of the seventh-ring warlock who died from the wooden arrow piercing his heart suddenly sat up from the pit. The pebbles in his eye sockets were gradually burned by the blue flames, and finally only two blue ghost fires remained in his eye sockets.
The witch wiped the sweat from her forehead:
"I didn't expect that the cursed state would make even the simple spiritual communication difficult. Both of their souls have been restricted and cannot be summoned under normal circumstances. The current state cannot be maintained for too long. We should hurry up and ask them."
The first soul lost control after being asked three questions, but these three questions also made him admit that they were indeed from the Tree Hole Association, and that they were indeed monitoring the old house because they suspected that the Bennet family was related to the power of time.
But unlike what Shade thought, the [Tree Hole Association] did not only suspect the Bennet family. They suspected that any family that had existed in this area since the time of Creekwood Town might have been involved in the power of time:
"There is a huge web of time in Ximu Town. Ordinary people have done many things that even the ring sorcerers dare not even think about."
This suspicion was very strange, so when Miss Winslet communicated with the second soul, Shad immediately asked them why they thought so.
"I don't know. This is the conclusion given by the top leaders of the association. It is said in the association that the president's eyes can directly see the past and the future, but some people also say that it was people from the future who traveled through time and space to give the president the information."
Shade and Miss Winslet looked at each other, neither of them believed this statement, they must have specific clues. But the statement of the [Tree Hole Association] was consistent with the thoughts of the witch and Miss Danister, they also believed that there must be a big secret hidden in the local area:
"How big is your organization? How many of your people are there in Vista Forest now?"
"We have a hundred."
The corpse suddenly swelled up violently. While Shade used the [Hedon Seal] to protect Miss Winslet behind him, the corpse exploded with a bang. After the explosion, a three-meter-deep pit appeared in the forest, including the original stream. The billowing black smoke with a foul smell was blown away by the wind, and the stream water was constantly flowing into the pit.
"If his answer is more than a hundred people, then the [Tree Hole Association] is definitely not a small organization."
The witch with gray-black hair said, looking at Shade with her golden eyes:
"Will you take the risk?"
"Risk for what?"
"Even if the corpse explodes, I can still communicate with the spirit. But I'm not in my prime right now, so I might run into some trouble if I try again, such as resurrecting the dead. Do you dare to accompany me to try communicating with the spirit again?"
Xia De smiled and patted his chest, where the badge was hidden:
"No problem. What I fear least is the undead."
The next spiritual communication was not just a simple spell. The two continued to move deeper into the woods, and the witch explained to Shade:
"I want to find an area that is most suitable for the existence of the undead, that is, an area where the boundary between life and death is the most blurred. Generally speaking, such places are most likely to appear in places with less human activities. Just wait and see, my control over the power of death is no weaker than Transfiguration."
It was already noon, so they simply had lunch in the woods. This time, Shade did not use "Fiona's housekeeping servant" again, but took out the toys.
During lunch, in addition to taking a short break, Miss Winslet also discussed with Shad his performance in the battle in the manor, and once again praised Shad for his excellent performance in performing the two magic seals.
The lady was very willing to give Shade advice, as she had much more combat experience than Shade.
Then the two of them also talked about "toy transformation", which is Shade's magic "toy making". Shade did not hide the fact that this magic was actually a "divine magic", and when she learned that Shade could even turn living people into toys, the witch was even more eager to try and said:
"You can turn a ring wizard into a toy? This is incredible. The increase in the level of a ring wizard will passively improve various resistances, including resistance to malicious polymorph. Try it on me, I want to experience the power of your polymorph."
Sitting on the tablecloth and eating lunch under the tree, Shade shook his head:
"I'd better not do that. It's not a good feeling to be turned into a toy. I will feel confused and my perception of time will be wrong."
So Flora Winslet smiled confidently and said:
"You don't think your Transfiguration will work on me? I'm a master of Transfiguration."
After thinking about it, Shade felt that what she said was right. After all, even after being blessed in the "Holy White Chapel", his current [Toy Making] was still ineffective against the twelfth-level Jialina:
"Then I'll give it a try."
As he spoke, he took out a brand new canvas. Miss Winslet, who was also sitting on the tablecloth, even covered herself with the canvas:
"Come on, I'm ready."
Knowing that the other party was the "Master of Transfiguration", Shade seriously summoned the Life Ring and then reached forward to touch it.
