[Outlander, you have stepped into the "corridor of time". 】

[Message from the ancient **** "Father of the Infinite Tree":]

[Fifth Epoch 5177 Spring, Broken Isles, Lost Lake. 】

[Event: The witch who pursues eternal beauty. 】

[Duration thirty minutes (1/3). 】

"The Broken Isles? After five continents in the east, west, north, south, and middle, this time, it actually reached the sea?"

Xia De was a little surprised.

[You have obtained additional information. 】

[The figure of the father of the infinite tree is watching you. 】

[The ancient **** of time gives you a test. 】

[Help mortals visit the gods and learn the secret of eternal beauty. 】

[The Father of the Infinite Tree will give you rewards: Ritual - Water of Moonlight, Ritual - Fire of the Sun. 】

"The reward this time is two rituals?"

Although a little surprised, past experience has proved that any reward given by the father of the infinite tree is very useful to Xia De, so even though it is a ceremony, he is also very happy:

"This time, the ancient **** of time gave the knowledge of the moon and the sun again, and I don't know what the next time will be."

The familiar white mist around him has come more than once, and Xia De didn't think too much about it, and took a step forward with excitement.

The white mist retreated silently to the sides, as if the curtain had been drawn. And what was shown to Xia De in front of him was the big lake under the night and the mist lingering over the lake.

"It's night again?"

But if you look closely at the night sky, the stars are covered by the mist, and even the moon becomes extremely hazy.

In front of you is the silent lake at night, and in the center of the lake you can vaguely see the mid-lake island covered by mist. Looking back, there are low bushes and lush forests. It's just that there is also abnormal fog in the bushes and forests. This fog is not particularly humid, but when it is inhaled into the lungs, Xia De feels a little dizzy.

[There are ingredients in the fog that inhibit the activity of the brain. 】

"Is this fog a tranquilizer?"

[A tranquilizer with extraordinary power. 】

The night was very dark, and no one could be seen around. It was clearly in the depths of the dense forest, but no insects could be heard. On the contrary, a strange rustling sound was coming from the bushes behind him, and quickly approached Xia De who was standing on the shore. Xia De was not interested in knowing what it was, so he walked towards the lake:

"Walk on water."

This is a spell learned after absorbing the divinity hidden in the golden pearl of [Scarlet Spiral Lord]. Shad borrowed its power when he fought Joey Barton in death.

He successfully raised his feet to step on the surface of the Lost Lake, and stood steadily on the lake. But in the next moment, the extreme chill surged from the soles of the shoes to his feet, and immediately rushed to his whole body. Xia De froze there, only a subconscious exhalation was left.

Obviously the temperature here is close to midsummer, but the breath he exhales is white cold air.

Not only was the body frozen by the chill from the water, but even the soul felt stagnant. And as time went by, the cold air became stronger and stronger, making Xia De feel like he was about to be assimilated by the lake water:

"Sure enough, Lost Lake is just as unsafe as places like Hope Town and Fort Dread."

The burning Chuhuo in his body tried his best to fight against the strange cold air, and Xia De, who was frozen stiff, barely lifted his legs and ran towards the lake center island. Every step he took left a piece of thin ice in the shape of footprints on the lake, and the closer he got to the island in the middle of the lake, the more unbearable the coldness became:

"Ragley's Jump!"

Because the spell-casting materials were prepared in advance, the thaumaturgy was used directly at this moment. But Xia De failed, this area actually prohibits the power of space movement:

"Incarnate as a red butterfly!"

In the mist on the lake, the whole person dispersed into a group of red butterflies. Exuding red light, the butterflies flying red light spots are flying above the water surface, of course they will not touch the water surface. But the surrounding mist is not only a powerful tranquilizer, Xia De, who turned into a red butterfly, felt that his consciousness was assimilating with the group of red butterflies in the thick fog in just a few seconds, so he had no choice but to change back to human form .

He hurried forward a few steps, feeling the cold and unbearable, so he turned into a group of butterflies again.

As Xia De got closer to the island in the middle of the lake, he saw light in the mist. There was a cluster of campfires on the shore of the island in the middle of the lake that were not particularly conspicuous, and the people beside the campfire also noticed a group of bonfires emitting red light. The butterflies were flying towards them, and then saw the group of red butterflies transform into a tall figure in the mist, and the figure quickly turned into a red butterfly:

"Someone is here again, help her."

This was the language of the end of the Fifth Era, and Shad had learned it in his textbooks, but he was not particularly proficient.

The clear female voice fell, and a flying snake shot at Xia De from the shore of the island in the middle of the lake, but Xia De quickly realized that it was a hemp rope. The flight of the hemp rope completely violated the basic laws of physics, and there was no tendency to fall at all. Unfortunately, after flying less than half the distance, it suddenly fell to the water surface as if being pulled by an invisible force.

"The Great Sin Chain!"

Xia De waved his hand forward, and the chain that flew out of the sleeve also flew into the fog like a flying snake.

Just like the hemp rope, the chain was pressed to the surface of the water shortly after it flew out, but fortunately, [The Great Sin Chain] imprisoned all power, and the invisible power was also slightly affected, so that the end of the chain barely touched The end of the twine.

The witch who manipulates the rope on the shore of the island in the middle of the lake seems to know the spell of [Living Rope Trick]. The chain and the front end of the hemp rope were tightly tied together in a dazzling way, and then a huge force came, and the rope and chain stretched straight at the same time, Xia De instantly flew his feet into the air, and was actually dragged directly to the shore by that force.

"Oh~"

He staggered from the water to the shore, knelt down beside the campfire and stretched out his hands tremblingly to keep warm. If the rope didn't appear, he really felt that he was about to be assimilated into water by the chill, and that feeling even made him almost touch the edge of the spirit rune [Water].

"man?"

As the pale Shad warmed up, a voice beside him said, but then another retorted:

"Your Majesty, this should not be a man, otherwise how could the effect of the curse not appear?"

"But it looks like it's really a man. Miss Teresa, Serkses should have taught you not to be fooled by common sense...Although the current situation is indeed very weird."

Said the first voice that appeared, and it was also the voice that said it wanted to help Shad.

The witch called "Your Majesty" softly asked Xia De whose heart was still beating violently, as if afraid that her voice would scare him:

"Sir, since we saved you, can you introduce yourself?"

"Sorry, I...take a break, what is under the Lost Lake? I can perceive something more terrifying than the cold."

After finishing speaking, I realized that the two witches around me should not understand my words, but I didn't expect the second voice, the lady called "Miss Teresa" replied:

"There are more than one things under the Lost Lake. As long as they don't touch the water, they won't wake up. You are so brave, you dare to walk over the water."

"If it's not impossible, I don't want to."

Xia De's body temperature gradually returned to normal. He supported the ground and tried to stand up while looking at the surrounding environment.

This is indeed the edge of the island in the center of the lake. The island itself is not big, and it is covered with low shrubs. Even if there is fog, you can almost see the whole picture at a glance.

In the center of the island is a dilapidated tower, an obsidian building, which looks even more abrupt in the dark night. Xia De just took a look, then immediately looked away, and then gasped again.

A great existence, a "big" existence than this island, this lake, and this overseas jungle is in the tower, and that is a real god. He was definitely able to detect the few people by the lake, but he didn't have any malice towards them, so he should be a good god.

Looking at the witches around him again, Xia De was very surprised that there were not only two witches beside the campfire, but eight ladies.

However, except for two of them, the other six were all dressed in black and white maid outfits.

They bow their heads and do their own things, or maintain the bonfire, or use their power to disperse the white mist, or arrange rituals to guard against danger.

The two witches who were not wearing maid skirts, that is, the two ladies who were talking to Xia De, looked at Xia De warily.

The witch known as "Your Majesty" stood closest to Xia De, and Xia De knew with just a glance that this was another witch of the thirteenth rank.

She was wearing a purple gown, with long, wavy hair hanging down her back to her waist. He wears three jeweled alchemy rings on each of his left and right hands, and a pointed hat inlaid with white, black and pink diamond fragments on his head.

The eyes are brown, and there are dots of broken light in the pupils. Seeing her beautiful face, Xia De was taken aback for a moment, but immediately adjusted his expression again, and said very respectfully:

"Thank you for saving me. I think if I'm a second late, I'm afraid I'll really get lost in the lake."

"Although your strength is not strong, you still have great courage. We just used a special method to directly open the door to the lake center island of the Lost Lake. Over the years, you should be the first one who dared to walk from the water people."

said the tall lady in the peaked hat, eyeing him curiously:

"These maids are my servants."

She introduced that the weakest of the maids are at least six ranks, and the two strongest are tenth ranks. Although the maids were all doing their own things, Xia De could feel that they were secretly looking at him.

This is the time he met the most people in his adventures in the past time ~lightnovelpub.net~.

"This one is Miss Schultz Theresa, a tenth-year student at the Serksex Medical College, and my distant niece."

She pointed to the young girl beside her, who looked nothing like the talking witch. She was wearing a pair of round-rimmed glasses, her long blond hair was tied into more than ten braids, and she was examining the man in front of her.

After introducing the people here, the thirteenth-rank witch known as "Your Majesty" asked Xia De again. Although there was a gentle smile on her face, there was no smile in her eyes:

"Then, sir, who are you?"

"I am a traveler from a foreign land."

Xia De said, patted the dirt on his clothes when he knelt in front of the bonfire just now, then looked at the witch, and asked softly:

"May I ask you are......"

The corners of the big witch's mouth curled up, her eyes narrowed slightly:

"Although I don't know your gender, but since you use extraordinary power, don't you even know me?"

"you are......"

Xia De pretended to be thinking, and then suddenly realized:

"Ruler of Witton?!"

"Yes."

Wearing a peaked hat, all the clothes and accessories on her body have spirit and elemental reactions, and the witch said softly:

"I am, the Witch Emperor - Violet Marshall."
