Whispering Verse

"It's okay, this is also in the plan. Xiwei's niece is still on the first floor. She is the witch's apprentice. As long as she is still there, the ritual on the first floor will not be invalid."

Miss Sylvia grabbed Shade's arm, and Shade nodded slightly:

"Seven forty-one, seven minutes to go."

"Um?"

Priest Augustus, who was standing in the corridor, suddenly looked towards the window of Dorothy's room:

"Detective, I feel a familiar force, an edge of life and death, unfolding nearby."

"On the verge of life and death?"

"It's very close. It's quite close. It's an outlet opened by unstable space. No, I have to deal with it, otherwise the scope there will become bigger and bigger. Once out of control, the problem will definitely not be small."

"Priest, I'll go with you."

Dr. Schneider also said, and the two nodded to Shade and jumped directly from the window to the outside. Although this is the third floor, it has little impact on priests and doctors.

"How could it be such a coincidence?"

The three relics supported by the Witch Council, the Keeper-level [Hide and Seek Wardrobe], the Sage-level [Invisibility Cloak to Escape Death], and the Keeper-level [Concentric Sword], have all been brought to Dorothy's room. in the room.

The wardrobe was placed in the corner. If someone hadn't reminded it, Shade almost didn't notice it.

Everyone except Dorothy, Lesia and Agelina temporarily entered the corridor. Shade and Megan stood in front of the closet in the corner. The girls looked at Shade with some worry, but Shade shook his head slightly:

"The last five minutes."

He hugged Megan gently, and then felt that the seemingly calm witch was actually shaking slightly.

Smiling at Meghan, he put on the silver invisibility cloak and entered the closet, but did not close the door for the time being. Megan stood at the door of the closet holding the [Concentric Sword], preparing to face what was about to happen.

Miss Sylvia stood sideways at the door of the room, looking nervously at the interior of the room. Little Mia, who was being held by Agelina, widened her eyes and was quite puzzled as to why it was Shade who entered the closet this time:

"Meow~"

A soft meow sounded exactly with three minutes left. After the meowing ended, Miss Sylvia frowned and looked upward:

"There's something on the roof, no, more than one."

Even though she knew it was best not to leave at this time, after the top of her head began to shake and dust continued to fall from the ceiling, she still greeted her two high-ring followers, and then disappeared into the corridor with one step. Then, even Shade in the closet heard the sound coming from the roof of the Green Lake Hotel.

There is no attic in this hotel, and the third floor is the rooftop. Naturally, the witches will not forget to arrange defense and detection rituals there.

It is hard to imagine what kind of powerful enemy she encountered that caused Miss Sylvia to burst out with such amazing fighting power in an instant. But this undoubtedly means that the great witch of the ten rings has really encountered a difficult enemy.

Shade in the closet took a deep breath, gave Megan a look, and then stretched out his fingers to hook Megan's little finger. The red thread wrapped around their fingers, then turned into a golden thread, and finally disappeared. This is a thaumaturgy she has used before. With it, the two of them can sense each other's position at any time, and even share vision at close range.

The witch closed the closet door, and then pressed her hand on the side of the closet. At the same time, her short brown hair began to grow crazily, and within a few dozen seconds, the hair completely covered the wardrobe.

Agelina, who was holding the cat, was quite envious of this ability.

Dorothy pursed her lips and held Lesia's hand, her heart filled with uneasiness. Except for Agelina and Cat, everyone present is a ring magician, so they can clearly calculate the remaining time:

"Sixty seconds."

Shade in the closet only felt darkness. He was ready to use his "calm gesture" to turn himself into stone at any time. He was also ready to rush out of the closet and let Megan use the [Concentric Sword] to penetrate their bodies. Thinking about all the plans in his mind, in this darkness and silence, he asked himself:

"Have I really thought of all the possibilities?"

"Thirty seconds."

Megan Edwards was definitely not as calm as she showed, and Audrey in her heart remained silent, just like her at this moment. She imagined what it would be like when that day came, and at this time, all her friends were fighting for her, and the lover she chose was also dormant and waiting in the darkness. She is already very satisfied with this. She doesn't know what the future will be like, but she at least thinks that her current life, except for the small regret of being rejected by Shade last night, is considered complete.

"Fifteen seconds."

Most of the girls in the high and middle rings in the corridor were counting down silently. Follow your great witch to Green Lake and participate in this adventure and battle that no one can predict. This is the last moment. In fifteen seconds, you may face unpredictable death, or something worse. Some people regret it, some people are eager to try it, some people have regrets, and some people are thinking about the things they have pursued but have not obtained until now.

"Eight seconds."

The cat yawned lazily.

"Three seconds."

Tifa stood next to the two princesses and the blonde writer, and there was no sign at this moment. But to be more precise, except that little Mia suddenly jumped up, grabbed Agelina's shoulders with her front paws, stood up, and meowed a few times, there were no signs.

The writer lady suddenly realized something:

"The last time little Mia screamed like this, it seemed that it and I encountered a space transfer."

The rain month of 1854 in the universal calendar is Wednesday, the 21st, night, 7:48 minutes and 0 seconds.

During another major earthquake that struck the Green Lake area, Miss Aurora, who was flying in the air with her high-ring followers and cooperating with the church's thirteen-ring warlocks to fight against the enemy, felt as if she was struck by lightning. , suddenly realized something in his mind:

"Why should I leave the hotel at a time like this?"

At the same time, Miss Sylvia, who was on the roof of the Green Lake Hotel, fighting two completely transparent enemies using double blades with two followers who also had space powers, also suddenly widened her eyes:

"It's seven forty-eight, why should I leave the hotel?"

Miss Aurora suddenly lowered her height away from the battlefield in the night rain. Although the church's magicians were surprised, after all, the Witch Council came to help for nothing, so it was not a big surprise. Besides, this battle is almost over.

Miss Aurora didn't even use her strong mental power to avoid the rain, she just turned into a beam of light and fell on the roof of the hotel. Her long brown hair, which was twisted together due to being soaked by the rain, turned into a slender whip of light as she shook her head. This weapon, which was sharper than any sharp blade, cut through the rain, and then met Miss Sylvia. Together, they can defeat two monsters that can transform reality into reality at any time and cannot see their true form.

The cut card floated downstairs in the wind and rain after the monster died, but was later caught by Miss Sylvia. She saw the phantoms of two monsters back to back on the card:

"What Shade said, the fortune teller's alchemy cards."

Miss Sylvia said, then grabbed Miss Aurora's shoulders and returned to the third floor in an instant with her two followers. Although the white fog will hinder spatial abilities, it is obvious that the fog here is not thick enough.

Several ladies appeared on the third floor together. After the earthquake at 7:48, the hotel became quiet. The two witches who came back in a hurry did not see any girl in the corridor, nor did they see anyone after they came to Dorothy's room.

White mist has occupied every corner of the hotel, the bonfire arranged by Shade has disappeared, and all living creatures in the hotel have disappeared.

Miss Aurora looked very ugly, but the great witch of space had a different view:

"In addition to everyone and Shade's flame gone, have you noticed that even the [Hide and Seek Wardrobe] in the corner is gone."

"What's the meaning?"

Miss Aurora frowned slightly.

"Go to the basement."

Miss Sylvia smoothed the rainwater from her short hair:

"If I'm not wrong, Megan has probably entered the island. But things shouldn't be as bad as we thought. That fortune teller is really good at it."

She walked to the window at the end of the corridor on the third floor and easily removed the wooden board. Behind the wooden board was a foggy rainy night instead of the scenery of the deep sea:

"Sure enough, the relic here [the sea view window] has also disappeared."

The ladies walked along the stairs to the second floor, where the entire second floor was still in darkness. Then we came to the first floor. As expected, the fog had already dispersed on the first floor. Only the gas lamps on the walls illuminated the hotel at night. All the people who were supposed to be here, as well as Shade's bonfire, were all the same as on the third floor. No trace.

"really."

Miss Sylvia murmured to herself and led the group down to the basement.

Of course there is no one in the basement, but that is not what the great witch of space cares about. She arranged for others to examine the ritual with her, and later discovered that the ritual itself was intact, but the relics supporting the ritual were all missing.

She summoned her life ring again and let the spiritual runes illuminate the wall. The hidden passage appears, and the circular space and the statue of the ancient god behind it still exist:

"It seems that this is not considered part of the hotel."

"Emma, ​​what did you guess?"

Miss Aurora still couldn't come to a conclusion.

"Not everyone was transported by space in an instant."

The black-haired space witch said with certainty. She looked around and frowned slightly:

"It's a good method, but the fortune tellers on the island are still afraid of Sha De, otherwise there would be no need to use this method. Xiwei, do you know who decided on the location of this hotel? The original location of this hotel was really Was it Maria Edwards who decided?”
