Chapter 3068 The Miracle of the World Tree
All the light and shadows produced by the attacks stopped in front of the old man sitting on the throne. The strange light illuminated his face, but he did not raise his hands to break free from the chains or wipe out all the attacks that were about to hit him. Instead, he looked past the light and looked at Shade in the air:
"What terms?"
He did not understand the language of the strangers:
"This is indeed not a regional time freeze, but a miracle achieved by using the power of the World Tree to temporarily stop the concept of time. This is equivalent to the miracle you summoned for the night this summer."
The huge figure looked straight at Shade flying in front of him. It seemed as if there were only two people left in the silent world. Although the emerald light of the treetops above their heads had also solidified, the light around the ancient was still rippling like a flame. He seemed very dissatisfied:
"Shad Hamilton, an outsider from time, is this all you can do tonight?"
He asked inquiringly. Shade did not withdraw his hand from Miss Orlanod, but asked:
"Isn't that enough? Even if you freeze time, what can you do? How can you break free from the chains that even the evil god who devoured the dragon could not easily break free of? Or do you think you can block the attack launched by the great witches who mobilized the power of the [Witch Council]?"
The ancient one then laughed and said:
"Although I can't walk out of this forest, it doesn't mean I don't know what's happening outside. I know every detail of the Battle of Moon Bay, so I'm a little disappointed with you tonight. A drama that has already been performed once will become boring the second time, no matter how exciting it was the first time. Is this all you can do?"
Shad replied:
"It's enough that it works. You can spend thousands of years with me in this frozen time, but as long as you let time flow again, the current situation is still our victory. Although my moonlight cannot restrain you, the sword in Emilia's hand will definitely pierce your chest. This is what you said just now, let's fight together. As long as this sword hits, the war of time will be over."
The old man on the throne continued to smile and asked in this frozen time:
"I don't know if you've noticed, but the people around you have a lot of powers that can only be used within a certain time. Once the time is up, they can't use such powers at all."
This is talking about the Chosen Ones of Light and the Chosen Ones of Space. The former can only maintain its huge body transformed into light and used for battle for five minutes, while the Day of the Red Butterfly when the Chosen Ones of Butterfly Wings appear lasts for twenty-four hours.
"No, it's not just them."
The old man under the tree guessed what Xia De was thinking as if he could read his mind:
"The demigod summoned by your Word of Ascension will probably not be able to stay for too long. Even you yourself can only maintain your current state under the Silver Moon. You are still powerful under the Yellow and Red Moons, but not to your current level.
I admit that the situation is not favorable to me now. After time flows again, I can't easily break free of the chains and defend against the attack of the ancient gods. But if after time flows, the demigods disappear and the chosen ones of light and space retreat. Then with only two chosen ones and those witches and ring warlocks left, do you really think you can beat me? "
"What do you want to do?"
Shade's expression changed, and Professor Youke Wood, who was smiling under the tree, shook his head slightly:
"Can't you guess? I have been preparing for this moment for a long time. Now I will tell you what I am going to do! This is also a miracle of the World Tree."
As Shade threw the cloth from his pocket to cover Miss Orlanod nearby, the incarnation of the World Tree whispered on the throne:
"I said - time jumps to 24 hours later.
It is now: the ninth day of the month of Frost, the year 1854 of the Sixth Era, and eleven o'clock on Sunday night!
(Little Mia is running.)
"Meow~"
It was as if his head had been thrown into the laundry machine of his hometown and spun for eight hundred times. When he regained consciousness, Shade wanted to vomit and felt a pain in his brain as if it had been chopped by a knife. His memory seemed to have been completely cut off in the moment before he fell into a coma. At this moment, he couldn't even remember what happened before he closed his eyes.
After he opened his eyes, the cat's worried furry face almost stuck to his eyes immediately appeared. However, after Mia rubbed Shade's face obediently, she jumped away from his chest and let Shade sit up with his hands on the ground:
"Mi Mia, didn't I turn you into a toy? Why did you come out by yourself again? What happened?"
Beneath him was the ground of the clearing in the forest. When he stood up, five huge empty thrones stood before him. Behind the thrones was the lush giant tree that covered the entire Vesta forest tonight.
Although the traces of the battle and the fluctuations of the elements were still there, there was no one in the sky or on the ground. In the silent forest, there was only the sound of the night wind whistling. Even if I closed my eyes and listened, I could not hear any heartbeats other than my own and the cat's. After letting go of my senses, I couldn't even find creatures like ants.
This is clearly a normal world, but all living things are gone. Bewildered, Shade stared at the thrones for several seconds, then held the cat in his arms and said in his heart:
"Now time."
[Present world, sixth era, the eighth day of the month of frost in the year 1854 of the Universal Calendar, the day when the silver moon shines, eleven twelve at night.]
"I was only unconscious for more than 20 minutes? Or was it still the night the war started? Why did I remember the Ancient One saying to jump to what the situation would be like one day later?"
"She" replied in a gentle voice in the cold night wind:
[The power of the World Tree led all living creatures in this chaotic space and time, skipping 24 hours and heading to a day later - note that the affected area is limited to the Vista Forest. Due to your time resistance, you were not affected, so you were just knocked unconscious by the power of the spell. The cat was in an object state when the person under the tree cast the spell, so it was not affected either.]
"Everyone except me has been gone for a day?"
【These 24 hours are something they experienced, but this experience is blank. Therefore, everything returns to normal after 24 hours. When the full yellow moon shines on the forest, everyone will find a self-consistent reason for this missing day, but the Day of the Red Butterfly ends, the Dragon of Light turns into a stone statue again, and Adele Isabella has been driven back to the end of the world.】
Xia De listened in a daze, and it took him a long time to fully digest the content:
"Can he really do such a thing? Even if it's not to make the whole world jump, isn't it a bit too exaggerated to just make all the creatures in this forest jump for 24 hours? Is this considered cheating?"
But the good news is that he seems to have had 24 hours of rest, but he still cannot leave the woods.
"Wait a minute, I remember I put Miss Orlanod at the last moment"
He immediately lowered his head and searched in the snow with the help of the light from the treetops above his head. After touching the cloth that had just been thrown out, he successfully found the small doll of Miss Orlanod under the cloth.
At present, apart from Mia, there is still no living being who can accompany him to adventure in the Fifth Age. However, after the door of the "Holy White Chapel" appeared in the attic of his home and he accepted the blessing of the "Pure Creator" inside, Shad can now turn other people into dolls at the cost of a huge amount of spirit and with the other party's willingness.
He had tried it with Flora, so that the owl could accompany him to use the Time Tree Hole. Before the ancient man sitting on the throne took action, he felt that something incredible was going to happen, and in a hurry he turned Miss Orlanod into a doll, but he didn't expect it to be successful.
Then he suddenly widened his eyes again, finally waking up from the shock:
"And Luvia! Because of the time curse, Luvia cannot be affected by any time effects! The power of time jump is also ineffective on her. Where is Luvia?"
Thinking of this, he held the doll and looked up into the sky, trying to find any trace of the Glorious Messenger, but there was nothing in the open space, and there was no trace of the ship.
Shade then picked up the cat and the doll, stood up, flew up into the sky, and looked around. The forest and the land were still filled with smoke and dust from the thaumaturgical bombing, but both sides of the battle had disappeared. However, at least there was no sign of the crash of the Shining Emissary in the forest.
"Meow~"
The cat called softly, probably curious about why Shade didn't go to bed so late. This call gave Shade a great sense of comfort when he was alone at this time. He patted the cat's head gently and closed his eyes:
"Unquenchable Fire Seal."
The sensing effect of the Fire Seal takes effect immediately, and Fire Seals that are not in the present time can still be sensed. Shade can tell that except for Luvia, the holders of other Fire Seals are not in the "present".
"Luvia"
Although the purple-eyed fortune teller's fire seal was located now, it was a little far from where Shade was at the moment. In the confusion of time and space, Shade couldn't tell where it was exactly, but after sensing it, he immediately set off with the cat, without even restoring Miss Orlanod.
Because he didn't know whether the elf who summoned the witch was no longer in the "present", so once the ancient witch was restored, would she stay in the present or disappear immediately.
"Why didn't Luvia stay under the tree? Was she in danger?"
It was not difficult to follow Luvia's trail and cross the forest alone without any enemies blocking the way. However, even if you left the open space and continued to move forward, you still couldn't see the edge of the tree canopy above your head. It really covered the entire forest.
He flew very fast in his anxiety, and when he followed the guidance of the "Fire Seal" and approached his destination, he found that it was near the elf tree house.
"What is Luvia doing here? This is not a tree house, this is the hot spring in the Moon Sanctuary!"
After landing from the sky, he walked on the accumulated snow and continued to move towards the silver light under the huge silver moon. Soon, the heat from the gurgling water had melted the surrounding white snow.
