Chapter 2810 How to get home
Time travel has never been an easy thing. Although Shad has experienced time travel many times in Vista Woodland, he was all relying on the power of the "twisted tree hole".
But if the power of the tree hole is used correctly, it can only allow the user to go from the "present" to the "past", and the return process can be regarded as repatriation.
Therefore, Shade, who is in 1821, cannot use the power of the "twisted tree hole" to return from 1821 to 1854. Of course, he can also use the power of the tree hole incorrectly like the "time curser", but this will only increase the instability of local time, and how to open the tree hole is also a matter of luck.
As for the magic "Return of Time", unfortunately, this magic can only work on targets other than Shade. Just like the basic spell "Move Object" is ineffective only on oneself, Shade cannot push himself back to 1854. Moreover, his current timestamp is 1821, and he is not considered to be a person from 1854 at this time.
On the way back to Ms. Helena Carter's home in the forest on the flying carpet, Shad told the lady who cared about him about his experience on Wednesday night, the 1854th of the Dead Leaf Month in .
He concealed the fact that the doctor also used demonic power and only said that he had found help, while explaining all the other details.
He was originally worried whether it was too risky to talk directly about the evil creature in this forest, but then he thought that his sudden appearance with such obvious signs of the curse did not cause any reaction, so a simple discussion should be fine.
Shad told the story all the way until the two of them landed on the platform on the tree house. He then talked about how after the devil was defeated, he was exiled by the big black tree into the cracks in time and eventually landed in this era.
"I'm actually worried about my friend right now. I don't know how he is doing after being knocked away."
Shade said this and walked into the room with the black-haired sorceress.
I don’t know if the spell this lady used to build the tree house was the same as Emilia’s. Shad took a closer look this time and always felt that both the layout and style of the house were very similar to Emilia’s three-story tree house more than 30 years later.
The tree house was obviously only for one person, so the indoor area was not very large, so Shade sat directly at the table. The black-haired lady also sat down, and the teapot automatically flew to the charcoal stove to heat up. She said with concern:
"The academy also houses some relics that can allow you to return to the correct time. You can wait a few days and I will borrow those relics to give it a try."
"Thank you for your kindness, but I'm afraid that repatriation relics are useless to me. My situation is somewhat special."
He then introduced his own characteristics of being accepted by all time points, so the thirteenth ring sorceress doubted whether Shade really belonged to 1854, but she only had a slight doubt:
"There aren't many legal ways to travel through time left in this day and age. What do you think?"
"Time Key. I'm wondering if I'll be sent back to 1821 now or 1854 thirty years later after using the Time Key. But there's a problem with that. I promised to use the key with another girl. If I break my promise, it will easily cause a time paradox."
This time he is really in trouble. Of course, there is another way, that is, if Shad lives from 1821 to 1854, he only needs to wait 33 years to see Luvia and Mia again. Just thinking about it makes me feel that this method is terrible.
Of course, Shad's current situation is at least much better than that of Miss Danister and Flora, who traveled through tree holes and could not leave the Vestal Forest. But Shad was exiled, and he came to this era semi-legally, so he can go wherever he wants.
In short, there is no point in rushing about going back. If Xia De could really find a way to go back, to everyone in 1854, he would have only been missing for a few seconds or hours.
It was late at night, and there was no good idea to continue the discussion tonight. Moreover, seeing that Ms. Helena Carter had been busy for him all night, Shad suggested that they rest tonight and think of a solution tomorrow.
The black-haired lady nodded, and considering that Shade had just recovered, she suggested:
"You can sleep in my bed. Although you said you have fully recovered, an ancient curse of that degree cannot possibly not leave sequelae."
"No need for this, I brought the bed with me."
His luggage contained everything, including furniture such as a wooden bed. So he put down his own bed far away from the single bed, and then gentlemanly took out a curtain to separate the room from the center.
Seeing how skillfully he did this, the sorceress did not refuse. After that, the two of them washed up and rested.
The night was dark, and although Shade didn't feel tired, he was exhausted physically and mentally after the battle with the devil and the curse, and he fell asleep almost as soon as he lay down. The sorceress lying on her side under the window was not so tired. She listened to Shade's breathing gradually becoming steady, and then she leaned slightly to look at the shadow behind the curtain.
There was one thing she didn't actually say. Just now in the temple, when she saw the statue hugging Shade and kissing his forehead, although the scene was quite sacred, more sacred than any religious murals she had seen in churches, she clearly felt that it was not like a god blessing a mortal, nor like a mother blessing her child, but rather like...
She quickly shook her head to get rid of her wild thoughts, fearing that her blasphemous thoughts would cause other troubles.
But perhaps because of her random thoughts before going to bed, she actually dreamed that Xia De kissed her forehead in her dream that night.
This dream was so bizarre that she refused to tell anyone about it.
A night's sleep passed quickly, and when the morning sun of midsummer 1821 shone into the tree house, Helena Carter was actually awakened by the smell of breakfast.
The smell drifted in from the window. When she changed her clothes and walked out of the cabin to the platform, she saw breakfast, tea and snacks on the wooden table. At this time, Shade was holding a cup of tea, sitting at the table with the chirping of birds. Looking at the scenery of the forest from this high place, he could probably understand how Emilia felt every morning.
The sorceress looked at Shad's back and felt that he had almost merged with the morning scenery in the forest. It was a strange feeling, as if he had become a part of the forest. So she thought of "affinity with nature", a trait that only appeared in a few alien species such as elves.
"Is this the breakfast and tea snacks you prepared?"
The black-haired lady asked with a smile, and Shade turned around when he heard the voice:
"I don't have such a skill. I summoned this with thaumaturgy. A ruby and an emerald are enough."
"Fiona's house servant" - ruby or blood diamond, red dragon, good at cooking and kitchen work; emerald or precious jade, green dragon, good at living room cleaning, brewing black tea and making snacks. Shade usually uses rubies to exchange for sumptuous meals. This time, in order to thank Ms. Helena Carter for taking care of her last night, he remembered the emerald.
The sorceress did not accuse Shade of wasting food. Instead, she smiled, thanked him and sat down.
The two did not discuss Xia De's return immediately, but ate breakfast together peacefully. After breakfast, the plates, knives, forks and teacups disappeared without a trace. I guess Miss Long would clean them. Xia De then talked about business:
"I thought about it carefully this morning. Most of the legal time travel methods are inseparable from the power of the gods. As for this forest, the temple on the top of the hill may be able to help me. Or there are ruins of the temple of the old god 'Yaobianmen' in the forest. That old god has the power of time and space, and maybe he can help me."
He had originally thought of the hermits in the forest, but after thinking about it carefully, the methods they came up with were also inseparable from the tree holes:
“I want to visit these two places.”
"I'll go with you."
The black-haired sorceress wiped the corners of her mouth elegantly with a handkerchief:
“You should know that I came here originally for the matter of the astrologer Euclid, but even after traveling through time to the future, I didn’t find any more clues.
Since there is nothing else to do, I will follow you. However, isn't there a music hall at the top of the hill? Is that the temple where the ancient gods once stood?"
In 1821, the city of Vista was in a period of rapid expansion. History books refer to this period as the early days of the steam revolution, and even the small town in the woods was taking advantage of this booming development trend to expand its urban territory.
During this era, the accordion hotel run by the Bennet family had been established, and the "Golden Music Hall" had taken shape. This concert hall, which became famous throughout the Old World thirty years later, was not fully built until more than ten years later in the 1854s, so its current appearance is somewhat different from what Shard saw in .
However, considering the distance, Xia De first went with Ms. Carter to the ruins of the temple of the old god "Yaobianmen", which was the scene of his one-on-two decisive battle with George Kant and Mrs. Xiatala on a late autumn night more than 30 years later.
It was not difficult to find the place. The stone arch was still surrounded by green vines just like it was many years later. Now in midsummer, the grass and trees were lush and there was no open space for young people to hold parties. If you didn't look carefully, it would be easy to overlook the arch under the cover of trees.
The sorceress, who had never been here before, was curious and looked around, while Shad walked under the arch and touched the severely weathered stones with his hands, then took out the Staff of Yggdrasil and knocked on it.
"Well, this probably won't be of much use to me."
He didn't know how the demon activated the power of the arch at that time. This was probably related to that evil creature. After all, part of the power of the old god [Shining Gate] came directly from the Tree Father.
