Chapter 1298: sands of time

Latest URL:

The raindrops on the body took away the heat, and the exhaustion made Xia De want to lie down, never to be separated from the night. This is not the worst, he actually heard a familiar voice calling to him in the deep night, the first voice came from Miss Fei Lianna

"Xia De, you appeared again. I used Fiona as a bait, and I caught you out!"

Xia De subconsciously wanted to look to the left, but the red dragon girl slapped his arm fiercely with her tail:

"Don't look at the night, look at me, absolutely don't get distracted! It's all fake, it's all fake! Only I am real!"

The last sentence is quite hysterical. Before Shade appeared, the young witch who lived alone in this city probably experienced many things.

"Yes, I remember!"

During the conversation, the first candle was almost extinguished, and the disappearing flame made the night black and blacken the clothes of the two of them. This is not an adjective, but their clothes and naked skin have really turned black, and Xia De even feels that part of his body has merged into the vast and indescribable giant "Night".

But fortunately, the second candle was lit in time, and the warm fire light illuminated them again, driving out the darkness.

At this moment, a sense of panic that cannot be described in any words appeared in my heart. The surrounding night turned into a solid monster in an instant, but thanks to seeing something more terrifying, Xia De immediately realized that this was completely an illusion. It's just that Fiona froze in place, so this time it was Xia De who reminded her:

"Don't pay attention to the night, look at the light of the candle, it's all fake!"

He grabbed Fiona's right hand and ran forward desperately. When the latter also recovered from the panic and panic, the second candle burned out, and the last candle was taken from Fiona's maid skirt by Shade. I took it out of my pocket and ignited it, and the power of the first fire could not make the light last longer.

The last candle represented the last ten seconds of safety. The night did not do any harm to them, but Xia De felt that he had never known that the night was such an oppressive thing. At this moment, the outsider seems to have returned to his childhood, to the age when he was afraid of the dark, his eyes closed, and the shadows shaking, but this time he had no quilt to cover him, only the girl who was walking with him.

The candlelight in his hand gradually shrank, even to the size of a grain of rice. The light was not enough to cover the two of them, so they held the candle together so that neither of them would melt into the darkness.

The small piece of light at the door of the watch shop is in front of you, but according to the current progress, it is absolutely impossible for the two of them to reach it. Just a second before the last candle was about to be extinguished, Fiona violently tried to throw Shade forward. Unexpectedly, Shade was faster than her. When she realized it, her body had already staggered to the The light at the door of the store.

The candle was completely extinguished.

The girl standing firmly against the wall looked at the dark night without any light behind her. She couldn't see the light, and couldn't see Xia De's figure. She covered her mouth in horror, and then saw Xia De's hand stretched out from the edge of the night.

His whole body seemed to have turned black, but the surface of his body was slightly emitting a silver light. And as Shad came to the place illuminated by the light, that layer of black also quickly receded:

"Oh, I was really scared just now. I almost forgot that I can shine. Although my friends despise this ability, it has saved me many times."

He staggered out of the night, feeling as if his whole body was about to freeze. And the red dragon girl hugged him again, the ups and downs of emotions made her unable to control her tears.

Of course, Xia De is not completely fine as he himself said. At the moment when he stayed briefly in the dark just now, something like a tentacle touched his left arm, so that he could hardly control the left half of his body now. Although he could still stand, he was unconscious.

But fortunately, from the past time point back to the present, although the spirit cannot be replenished, any damage received—except for the spiritual damage caused by God, will be healed. This is the right of all time investigators.

[Outlander, you have some understanding of "night" and "shadow". 】

This is already the second time that Xia De has had an understanding of "Shadow", according to the information accumulated by the academy. No matter how bad the talent is, if there are three to five perceptions of the same spirit rune, more than 80% of the spirit runes will come.

One voice in her ear disappeared, but the other voice never sounded. She just hugged Xia De, and even wrapped her tail around Xia De's waist.

"Let's go in first, there's no need to get wet here."

Xia De persuaded, and then Fiona said softly "um~", wiped away her tears, and followed Xia De into the antique shop with lights on.

The interior of the store resembles the decoration style of the old era before the Steam Age of the Sixth Epoch. Dark golden wallpaper is used in the old interior, and wall clocks of various colors and sizes are hung on the walls. The shapes are even more varied, and there are even cat-shaped wall clocks. The material of the pendulum is also very rich, such as metal, gemstones, and the wall clock by the door even uses a skull as a pendulum. Every time you shake the green fire in the skull's eyes, it will pull out the wire of fire.

The store was filled with low, two-tiered shelves filled with small clocks and clocks. The clocks were stacked like cabbage on the left side of the wall next to the door of the store, and the pocket watches were randomly placed in the glass cabinets and oval windows, and the watch chains were almost all intertwined.

All the clocks told different times, even different speeds, but all pointed to the fact that it was night. The only shop Shade had ever seen that was messier than this was probably Old John's Pawn Shop.

Only those stores that have imprisoned outsiders have other people, and there are no people here. They tried not to touch anything, and found their way between the clocks and came to the deepest counter. On the wall behind the empty counter, there was actually an oil painting of a golden throne covered by a transparent curtain.

The merchandise brochure was placed in the corner of the counter, and compared to the exquisite menu in the cafe, this watch shop’s merchandise brochure was a bit too shabby.

"I don't have much time left, let's see what I need to exchange this time, maybe I can bring it."

Xia De urged, Fiona Drago has never been the kind of girl who would affect her actions because of her emotions. She suppressed the emotions in her heart and quickly flipped through the catalog, and quickly found her target:

"it is this."

It’s still the same as the picture on the left and the right side, but there are exquisite color pictures in the cafe, but here is just a rough black and white picture, which is a huge gear:

[The lost clock wheel is immune to the effect of part of the power of time after holding it, and its own aging speed is halved. 】

[The gears of a certain clock in the palace of the monarch, nothing more. 】

[Need to pay 4 cups (approximately 113.4 grams) of Sands of Time infected by the night. 】

"Sands of Time?"

This is a famous relic that Shad encountered twice in the Sixth Era. The first time was in Coldwater Harbor, I participated in the cruise ship auction with Rezia, who was aliased as Miss Prince (Chapter 321). One of the three optional rewards given by the villainous thief [Jack the Thief] (Chapter 988).

But both times, Shad only saw it rather than obtained it. [Sands of Time] is a keeper-level relic, and its body is a desert located outside the material world. The sand itself is just a derivative of the relic. Once this kind of sand is spilled, it can affect the flow rate of time in a certain area depending on the amount used.

But because there are always various problems involving time, it is mostly used for research rather than combat.

It is not particularly difficult to acquire this kind of relic, but the prefix "infected by the night" is not very clear to Shad.

Ask Fiona for advice, but the red dragon girl doesn't know either. Originally, Miss Fei Lianna had prepared such materials for her, but it was a pity that she had lost them.

"No problem, next time I come back, I will bring this material."

Xia De assured her that the young witch was obviously a little disappointed:

"Are you leaving now?"

Xia De knew it was cruel to leave her alone in this kind of place, but he couldn't decide this kind of thing.

while there is still some time

, He restored the toys in his pocket, and built a small camp with tents, quilts and other items in the corner where there were not many sundries. As long as Fiona gets into the tent, she can be covered with layers of quilts,

And all around is the food and drinking water he left behind.

In the night of Evernight City, there is actually no hunger or thirst, and Xia De left these just to make her feel at ease.

"Before I come back, try not to leave this store~lightnovelpub.net~Xia De entrusted, the white mist around his body has been floating up a little bit, which is a sign that he is about to leave.

"You're definitely coming back, aren't you?"

The red dragon girl pursed her lips and asked, Xia De, who was looking at those eyes, couldn't bear to leave, but he couldn't find the Sands of Time without leaving.

"Yes, I will definitely come back, accompany you to meet the king, and then send you away safely. This is my promise.

Fiona nodded slightly:

"I still can't remember exactly what I came here for, but it seems to have something to do with the school that the teacher and the teacher's teacher want to build... You must come back.""

She tugged on Xia De's sleeve, and then asked rather embarrassedly:

"Can you... leave me your coat... I'm not afraid, it's just..."

Xia De didn't let her continue, but took off his coat and handed it to her. Fiona hugged the dress silently, and the two looked at each other until Shade was engulfed in the white mist.

Generally speaking, the gods of the fifth era can see the white mist, but ordinary people can't see it, but this time Fiona saw it.

The ring of life and the golden ladder slowly appeared behind her. The young witch looked timidly at the clocks and clocks around her, and then curled her tail into the quilt in the tent, making up her mind to "hibernate" until Shade came back .

On the life ring, the spirit rune of [Time] already engraved on it shone brightly, and Fiona buried her head in Shade's coat, covering herself completely with the quilt:

"Traces of time, it turns out to be like this."

The sound of clocks and clocks clicking, and the rain pattering against the window. The night is thick and there is no day in the city.
