Chapter 289: The "Girl" Who "Traveled" Through Time and Space

According to Miss Witch herself, when she was still a normal Lori, she had seen a miracle.

She seemed to see the magnificent and majestic ancient city in a haze, and walked in a daze on the streets paved with unknown blue metal. The road is so wide that it can accommodate more than 20 four-wheeled carriages walking side by side. In this way, even the imperial capital of Auckland, Seroxia, and the capital of the seven seas, Neosfia, did not have such luxury.

The tower-shaped buildings on both sides of the road appear to be stable and vicissitudes, as tall as if they were mountains that stood between heaven and earth tens of thousands of years ago, and are also made of metal of the same color and material as the ground.

The sky above the city was not a blue sky, but a huge ball of light floating in mid-air, sprinkling a bright but not dazzling light in all directions. The cluster of light was encased in a disk of purple orbits, like a giant celestial globe.

It's obviously a man-made device, but for some reason, Miss Witch can feel an aura that is more magnificent and great than nature. It was as if tens of thousands of years ago, the maker of this instrument was the supreme and only being who could rule over all things in heaven and earth.

The little girl sleepwalked through the vast empty city, and finally stopped at a gate where something seemed to call to her. She stepped through the gate through which even dragons could pass through and entered the large hall, flanked by two or three stories high vertical platforms with all sorts of delicate utensils.

The little girl was overwhelmed, but she didn't know what it was. She stayed in front of the central platform, the towering metal column reaching straight up to the ceiling. On the cylinder hangs a delicate and gorgeous object like a pocket watch, and the silver-blue material looks warm and smooth. It's like a moon.

"If only I could touch that thing." As soon as the little girl thought so, the "pocket watch" that had been hanging high on the pillar fell down. It landed right in the palm of the girl's hand.

This was Miss Rosalie's last vivid memory.

When she woke up, she found herself sleeping in the wild forest. Silver-fured wolves and blue-frost-fured bears stood by her, and the forest's most terrifying predator beasts would not hesitate to tear to shreds all strangers who trespassed into their territory, whether they were weak herbivores or fierce beasts that were fellow predators, but they were harmoniously guarding Zai's side. It's like a loyal pet that she raised since she was a child.

Rosalie knew that she was no longer who she used to be.

Since then, the power of the witch's bloodline in her body has awakened. She's only a half-elf (that's a catch-all term, but in fact she's less than one-eighth of the elven blood in her body). However, it can communicate nature and life magic more effectively than pure-blood elves. Her physique also allows her to easily gain the love of animals and plants, from flowers and plants and kittens and dogs to terrifying ogre-like monsters such as moon wolves and frost bears.

All of the above is only one aspect, and what is even more terrifying is that after that, time seems to have stopped in her body. Her existence is enough in itself to make those lichs and vampires who seek "immortality" envious and jealous to the point of shame, and almost immortality, but do not have to bear the fate of "curse" and "spurning". Of course, it is not appropriate to say that it is eternal life. After more than 300 years, she has changed from a "young girl" who was about ten years old to a "girl" who is now about twelve or thirteen years old. With this alone, one can believe that she will outlive all the pure-blood elves of the noble gold species, including the Night Elves.

But. It's not scientific.

Her bloodline determines the limit of her lifespan, unless she also transforms herself into an immortal, twisted being, like a lich or a vampire. However, one can communicate with nature at will. A legitimate Lori who uses life magic lightly, says she's an unclean undead. Who believes?

There is only one possibility, and the torrent of time has really turned into a slow stream or even a quiet lake in her body.

"I lived in seclusion near my hometown for almost a hundred years. In this way, I watched my friends grow up one by one, start a family, start a business, have children and grandchildren, grow old, and finally turn into a handful of dust. Like a ghost behind time, watching the vicissitudes of the world change coldly. Fortunately, I finally went crazy and reacted to myself, since I had such an opportunity, it can be regarded as an arrangement in the dark, and I must not waste this precious treasure. ”

It took you a hundred years to figure out such a simple truth...... It seems that everyone has a time for secondary two! Even if it's a strange creature with a lot of information, such as a female man, Lily, and Lori.

"After that, I came to Neosphia, and soak in the infinite book city of Ocean University, and it took me nearly fifty years to find the account of the city of my dreams from an ancient book that was almost weathered......" said Miss Witch.

It took half a century to find a book? Although I know that it is Mu Youdu's mother now, although I also know that the Infinite Book City claims to have books from the beginning of civilization of any race, but is this kind of work efficiency also a little slow? Lu Xi thought about it as he showed a look of sudden realization: "...... It turns out that the 'Lori Ghost of the Library' in the Seven Incredible Wonders of Ocean University refers to you? ”

"Eh, is there already such an urban legend? It was so distressing. Lori Witch's face suddenly showed a very obvious distress: "In order not to alarm the administrator, I don't light the lights when I stay up late in the library every day." With my magic, this bit of night vision is always fine. But once I was too careless, and I actually let a few female students who came to stay up late to prepare for the exam bump into each other. I wanted to explain, but those cute little birds were so timid that they kept screaming, and it was just like that. ”

Sure enough, all the supernatural stories that sound very loving, once they involve the truth, they feel extraordinarily powerless.

"As a result, what do you see in the books?" Rather than the incredible urban legends, Karin seems to be more interested in the true story that happened to the legitimate Lori. What a realistic person!

"Zero clock ticks. This is the treasure that gave me near-immortality, and it is also the greatest secret treasure left by the ancient giant civilization. Rosalie said in an almost dreamy tone, "As the name suggests." This is the only artifact in the world that manipulates time, although it is only limited to a certain range and space. But it also reaches a realm that is beyond the reach of the gods. ”

“…… As far as I know, there are still many secret treasures that can manipulate time and even space to a certain extent. For example, the Night Elves' Frost Whispering Hour Wheel, the Sun Elves' Sunlight Bible, the Mermaid's Tidal Jade Seal, the Dragons' Hourglass, and so on. Lu Xi suddenly felt that he who liked to lift the bar so much must be very annoying sometimes, but this was due to his personality, and there was really nothing he could do.

Rosalie glanced at Lu Xi with interest, as if it was the first time she had seen someone with such a broken mouth. Then he spread his hand and shrugged his shoulders and said, "You're right, but which of the above secret treasures can give me such an almost eternal life?" ”

She continued, "We all know that the glorious ancient giant civilization was destroyed in the War of Gods and Demons, and the last Titan Giant in history also fell in the Qiming War. However, I did find an ancient scroll from the Ocean University Library, which is known as the City of Infinite Books...... According to the ancient documents of the Giant Civilization itself, Hour Zero was sealed by the Titans and placed in the Giant King's capital Gudeteas after being sealed by the Titans due to its excessive power. This should be the magnificent uninhabited city I saw in my dreams. ”

Karin couldn't help but say: "But we all know that Goodetias was besieged by the demon legion in the war of gods and demons, and the Titans unleashed the city's defensive function, and the giant city sank to the ground with hundreds of thousands of demon legions and giant kings. Then ......"

And then. Torrents of mountain water rush out of the valleys, turning the city into deep lakes and rivers. Thousands of years have passed, and the mountains have turned into icebergs. The lake became a snowy field, and the boundless forest sea appeared in the original site of the city. No one knows anymore. The original giant kings were covered in this frozen canyon...... I came here to unlock the secrets of the Giant Civilization. Unfortunately, it took more than a century to find a reliable clue. I usually live in seclusion in the forest, I don't want outsiders to disturb me, and I sent Warcraft to scare away the hunters several times, and I didn't expect to have the title of "Queen of Warcraft in the Snow Forest", and it also attracted the Night Elves to verify, causing a storm in the city. ”

Lu Xi and Karin glanced at each other, and each saw obvious horror in each other's eyes.

"You know her well, don't you? Why are you so surprised? Hasn't she ever said anything like this before? ”

"I know her, but I didn't expect her to hide such a secret, I just think it's an ordinary witch with a natural communication." Seeing Lu Xi's disbelief, Karin explained: "Because many of the Night Elves were friends of my grandmother during her lifetime, I happened to come to Hyjal at that time to ask the Night Elves to help me cultivate the Heart of the Holy Spring, but they told me that it was not them who could communicate with plants in the world, but Miss Rosalie. I gave her the hidden fruit of the Purple Night Thorn Fruit. ”

"Wait...... Didn't you say that all the thorn trees were destroyed in the Qiming War? ”

"Oh, use your mind to think about it, of course the Holy Thorn Tree and the Holy Spring can be destroyed, because there is only one, but the witches of the Jackdaw Sisterhood were not a hundred but eighty, and everyone knows how to cultivate the Purple Night Thorn, how could that thing disappear? It's just that the Dragon Knights and the Great Sanctuary have been investigated more strictly in the past few hundred years, so they have gone underground. ”

"Then I can ask, why did you collect the fruit of the Purple Night Thorn?" Lu Xi couldn't help but ask.

"Not only did I collect the fruit, but I also hired several skilled witches. Whoever implants the Heart of Thorns will be a loyal warrior who is unrivaled and fearless of death, what do you say for? ”

It's so scary, it's scary, it's really a political character! However, the ...... of human weapons Karin, I don't even know you anymore.

"Don't worry, I'm on death row." Karin seemed to see the unnaturalness of Lu Xi's face, so she replied with a smile.

Although he knew that this might be Karin's words to comfort him, Lu Xi still decided to pretend to be confused to believe her.

"I've spent so much time and still come nowhere, plus what happened fifty years ago...... I was ready to give up, but since you are so anxious to mature the heart of the Holy Spring, then help me go to the giant city of my dreams and get the zero hour. The ancient texts I found made it clear that since that treasure slowed me down, it could in turn speed up the heart of the Holy Spring. ”

"This ...... What a sudden unfolding! Lu Xi let out a long sigh: "Can you sue me, why did you give up in the first place?" ”

"Hey, I thought you knew." Rosalie shrugged, "Fifty years ago, I became friends with St. Phineth of the Ice Sword. She was so intrigued about it that we assembled an expedition to go deep into the depths of Crystal Creek Caves...... In the end, I was the only one who survived. (To be continued......)
