Promotion is not the end. In order to make themselves stronger to resist the impulse of fusion, they almost bit their lips. Enlightenment - [Patience] first appeared on their life rings. Almost the next second, the two of them were together again. Obtained the miracle - [Fusion].
But the power gained from the ritual makes them want to truly become one with another person. Such a rapid acquisition of spiritual runes itself represents an extremely abnormal phenomenon.
The existence of Shade and the oath to Shade still made them walk firmly towards Agelina, who had already burst into tears at some point.
The short distance was less than ten seconds, but Lecia and Dorothy felt like they had walked for a long time. And when they finally left the scope of the ceremony, they realized that their whole bodies were soaked with sweat. Although their trembling bodies were a little weak, the strong impulse in their hearts weakened in an instant, leaving only a faint trace.
"elder sister."
The life ring was retracted, and before Lesia could say anything to Dorothy, she staggered and hugged Agelina, who came over crying. Lesia's long red hair stuck to the side of her face. She turned around and smiled helplessly at Dorothy, who was also pale, and whispered to her in her heart:
"Look, Agelina is so old and she's still crying."
The three people and the cat were all safe. Dorothy and Lesia checked themselves. In addition to grabbing power from the ritual matrix and being suddenly promoted, their souls have become more stable and powerful.
This was a good thing, but they still had to figure out where this place was and how to get back to the hotel. The walls are shaking and blood mist is spreading around. This is not a place where you can stay for a long time.
Fortunately, Grace and Helen gave them a red butterfly, but before the two sorceresses could take action, footsteps came from outside the arch. First, two red butterflies flew into view, and then Miss Danister, who followed the red butterflies, came over.
Lesia reacted the fastest and immediately wanted to cover her face. Fortunately, the flying red butterfly crashed into the three of them. Grace and Helen's illusions instantly hid their figures and appearances.
Miss Danister, who followed Hongdie, saw three people and a cat here, and the cat looked very familiar. She was surprised at first, and then looked at the huge ceremony on the ground in even more surprise:
"The sun, moon and stars? They are actually here! No, this is the underlying core ritual of Edwards Den's magic!"
"Does that mean that by destroying this place, the ceremony will end?"
Lesia asked immediately. Miss Daniste glanced at her and shook her head slightly:
"It should have been possible a few days ago, but now it's too late. Even if it is destroyed, it will only make the big tree above us lose its self-healing ability to a certain extent. This ceremony has come to the end. What is important now is not here, but The man in that tree.”
She deeply imprinted all the details of the ceremony in her mind, and then asked the three people:
"The butterfly led me to you. You are two middle-level warlocks and one ordinary person. Oh, it seems to be about to awaken. This cat. Shade's cat? I remember it's called Little Mia?"
"Meow~"
Butterfly did not cast illusion magic on little Mia.
"Ma'am, can you take us back to the ground safely?"
Dorothy plucked up the courage to ask the college librarian in Carsonlic.
The sorceress who also had red hair nodded:
"Of course, I'm here to repay the favor, but what are you doing here? Forget it, I won't ask. But if you see Shade, remember to remind him not to mix with human relics, even if It doesn’t matter if the other party is very beautiful. I know he has many lovers, but is it too much to provoke even relics?”
She sighed for her careless student. The three girls pursed their lips and did not show their expressions:
"The Hongdie Twins are just partners of Mr. Xia and Mr. Hamilton, not lovers."
"Let's not talk about this. Where do you want me to take you?"
Miss Denister asked again.
Lecia thought for a while, and looked at each other with Dorothy. The red butterfly left by Grace and Helen flew out of their hands:
"Follow this butterfly. If the old Edwards house is above, we want to go there. Mr. Hamilton, you might need us later, and now that we're here, we won't leave."
Lesia looked at Agelina aside again, but Agelina held her arm tightly, so she could only sigh and did not object.
At this moment, the ladies underground on the island don’t know the situation on the ground. At this moment, on the island where all the light has disappeared, the only thing that can be illuminated by the huge red light is the remains of the banquet hall in the canopy.
Shade, Iluna and Megan stood together, and the golden ancient sacred symbol between the witch's eyebrows lit up, helping her resist the instinctive urge of her blood to merge with the red light.
She clutched Shade's clothes tightly and watched as Shade pulled Dulute Giles who was slumped aside. I don't know if it was because Rusty Edwards gave him part of his power before he disappeared. This man with a big hole in his chest still had the strength to cry heartbreakingly.
And Shade, who had a more acute perception, felt that part of his soul had undergone permanent and irreversible changes due to the "fusion" just now.
"Actually, my original plan was that if it was really impossible to stop Laplace Klein Howard's two-hundred-year-old plan, I would let Durut Giles be absorbed as well. As the first and second candidate If the chosen ones become one, there will most likely be problems with the ceremony of the chosen ones, and I can separate them again afterwards."
Shade said softly, and the brown-haired girl behind him pulled his sleeve, almost crying:
"Why did you agree to your ancestor's request just now? Since you feel that you can separate the absorbed family members again, why did you agree to him?"
"Of course he doesn't want you to suffer."
"Of course he doesn't want you to suffer."
The dark golden scale suspended above Iluna's head on the side protected everyone from harm in the increasingly bright red light. She didn't seem to be worried about the current situation at all, but instead said to the witch:
"Meghan, or rather Audrey."
Iluna is obviously much younger than the witch, but she sees it more clearly;
"Shade doesn't want to lose you, even temporarily. I said, don't you have the title of 'wisdom'? Why can't you see this clearly?"
"But."
Iluna interrupted her directly:
"If you want to believe Shade, don't hesitate or hesitate here. You know, I have always believed in him, from the beginning."
She blushed slightly at her boldness in saying these words, but she was satisfied with her boldness and regarded this as her own growth before her birthday.
"You don't need to be sad, you can see her again."
Shade on the side said to Durut Giles. The man with tears on his face shrank on the ground and looked at Shade:
"Will Rust come back?"
Even if the church prepared the "Heart of the Living Dead" in advance, Shade still did not agree:
"Bringing a dead soul back from death is an absolute taboo. I can't guarantee that she can come back. I can only guarantee that you will still have a chance to see her again."
After saying that, he looked at Iluna again:
"Do you understand the power of flesh and blood fusion?"
The seventeen-year-old girl smiled and put her hand on the center of her chest:
"Edwards Den's magic, I understand it as well as you do."
Although they failed to find the diviner's identity in advance and kill him, and therefore failed to make themselves the leaders of the "Edwards Den Magic", at least at this moment, when the ritual was going on to the last moment, they all understood What is the power of flesh and blood fusion?
"So Shade, are you ready?"
Iluna asked, Shade looked at the dazzling red light that continued to expand high up, and shook his head slightly:
"Before that, I have one last question. Durut Giles, stand up. Now, you three, please answer me a question: What is the farthest distance in the world?"
Megan and Audrey answered together:
"The central island of Green Lake is one with this island, but will never be touched."
Durut Giles stood up holding the ground and said with sobs:
"It's the distance between life and death, it's asking for something but not getting it, it's the mistakes of the past that can never be undone now."
Only Iluna smiled and said:
"The farthest distance in the world is obviously the distance between hearts."
She seemed a little mature inexplicably at this moment. It was not the cold and cruel maturity that Shade saw in the memory of the dark fishman Mrs. Flamel. It was a gentler and softer maturity:
"People can never understand each other, and they can never open all the spiritual barriers. Although this is the farthest distance, it is also the closest distance that can exist between people. Space, It’s so interesting to bridge and separate.”
She seemed to understand something, but before she could figure out how to express it, Shade thrust a "weapon" into her hand. The pink crystal spike was already lying in her hand.
Iluna Emilia Bayas bit her lips lightly to calm herself down. The gentle crystal spikes made her feel like she was going to tremble, but she still forced herself to calm down:
"So, is it still the same as before?"
"Yes."
Shade smiled and nodded:
"Wait for me, it'll probably take a few minutes."
Iluna also smiled, and everyone raised their heads. The blood-red light above their heads was already as dazzling as the moon in the dark night, and gradually illuminated the place on the island that had just been swallowed by darkness.
The lush blood-red trees are gently swaying. When the blood-red light truly illuminates every corner of this space, this place will completely change from the opposite side of the material world to a space separated from the material world.
And this is also the process of "creating space".
"What are you talking about, what exactly is Shade going to do?"
Megan still didn’t understand, but Iluna shook her head and stopped talking.
