Chapter 2229 Emilia’s Dream
“Let me see. The sun is in the right position. It seems that the result is not bad. I thought you would object to my divination.”
Miss Belindel smiled and said to Shade again, Shade felt very strange:
“When have I ever objected to your divination?”
“It seems to me that you are making peace.”
She originally wanted to say “Speaker”, but thinking that Emilia was still here, she changed her words:
“They are all the kind of people who respect fate, but don’t like to interpret it casually.”
Shad was curious about what Miss Adele Isabella would do if she heard the title “old boss”, but he just smiled at this time, and then said to Emilia:
“Don’t put too much pressure on me. Before you moved into my house, you even encountered sage-level relics, but now you only encountered poet-level relics. This shows that the curse left by these cultists on you has been seriously weakened. ”
The witch heard “Check into my house”, and Emilia nodded slightly, but she still felt that she had been causing trouble to Shade.
After lunch, everyone began to prepare for the eviction of the relics. In order to ensure no light, a basement without windows was the best environment. Belindale Manor has a long history and has a large number of basements used for various purposes, such as wine cellars, vegetable cellars, etc. In the end, the witch chose the basement in the southeast corner of the manor. This is where the witch temporarily stores extremely dangerous relics, but it is currently idle.
After a little cleaning, pillows, mattresses, quilts and a metal folding bed were brought in. After Shade, Miss Belindel and Amelia entered, Miss Matilda waved to the three of them, then comforted the little unicorn Liana, and then closed the door outside.
The silver ball of light condensed in Shade’s hand illuminated the surroundings. The witch motioned to the elf girl to lie down on the bed. She glanced at Shade and got into the quilt with some embarrassment:
“Then Miss Belinder, Mr. Watson, I’ll see you later.”
As he spoke, he obediently drank the sleeping potion prepared in advance. It was actually a powerful sleeping potion. After closing his eyes and lying down, he quickly fell into sleep.
Shade extinguished the light ball he summoned, and the surrounding area fell into complete darkness. Both Shade and Miss Belindel have “dark vision”, so when they sit down by the bed and wait for the relic effect to be triggered, they can clearly see each other in the dark.
I just had to admit that with his vision suppressed in the darkness, Shade felt that his sense of smell had become more sensitive. The evidence is that when the witch leaned towards him, he could feel the scent of perfume in her hair and body very clearly.
“I slept well this morning.”
The witch said softly:
“I haven’t slept so comfortably for a long time.”
She was satisfied to see that the man in front of her was at a loss. Shade didn’t know how to answer this sentence. Fortunately, she just wanted to see Shade’s reaction. Of course, it was true that she slept comfortably:
“When I woke up just now, I saw you reading “Psychic Compass”.”
“Yes, for the seven-ring sublimated language spirit rune, [Guide] or [Direction].”
Xia De whispered, in fact, even if he used [Dragon Roar] at this time, he would not be able to wake up the sleeping elf girl behind them. As for the “Psychic Compass”, it was a book lent to him by the Thirteenth Ring Sorceress after the Green Lake Incident, at the dusk when he and Miss Daniste were temporarily separated. That was back in May, and now it’s mid-July. After nearly two months, although Shade had gained something, it was not enough to obtain the spiritual runes.
“Guidance and direction?”
She nodded slightly:
“Perhaps I can give you some help. My core spiritual runes are four rare ones: Enlightenment-[Eye][Guidance][Travel][M].”
Compared to Luvia’s core spiritual runes – [Nobility] [Destiny] [Destroyer] [Doom], Bella Belindel’s initial talent as a diviner is actually not outstanding. And her current achievements are obviously not only due to the convenience brought by her identity as a witch, but also due to her own efforts.
“The teacher took a fancy to my [guidance] and [eyes] back then, thinking that I had the talent to spy on fate and guide the future. I don’t know who recommended the “Soul Compass” to you. I admit that it is very important. [Guide] Obtaining spiritual runes is beneficial, but it is also a bit too cumbersome and troublesome.”
She smiled in the dark:
“There is a more convenient way: try to lead a person’s destiny and guide her or him onto the right path. The meaning of [guidance] corresponds to the four elements and has different interpretation methods, but in my opinion This is the most convenient. Of course, if you just give directions to ordinary people, you will not gain anything even if you work for a year. Only special destiny can get extra gifts from fate.”
In fact, this is one of the ways Luvia can quickly level up and gain strength by witnessing the stories of the chosen ones. Shade did not expect that this method would also be helpful to herself:
“Would you like to guide the chosen ones? That’s a good idea. My relationship with the chosen ones has always been very subtle. In fact, if I think about it carefully, I didn’t deliberately guide anyone. I just watched the story happen. But what if I want guidance, so it’s not difficult, as long as”
He was about to say something more, but suddenly closed his mouth because footsteps sounded in the basement.
There could not be a fourth person here besides Shade, the witch and the elf, but the footsteps sounded so real to Shade. No matter how powerful the illusion master is, he cannot simulate such a perfect sound. Shade can even imagine the position and posture of the “person” who entered here in the darkness through the sound of footsteps in an instant.
“Fake, it’s all fake.”
He thought in his mind that Emilia, who was sleeping on the bed behind them because she had drunk enough sleeping potion, was also beginning to wake up.
However, the footsteps this time will not disturb the house upstairs. After all, it is still daytime upstairs, and “midnight footsteps” will not occur during the day.
Miss Belindel squeezed Shade’s hand gently. She stood up alone and put her hand on her right shoulder. As the [Source of Chaos] buried deep in the flesh and blood was stimulated by her own spirit and glowed, the light of the yellow moon temporarily illuminated the place. As expected, there was no fourth person in the basement.
There are no restrictions on the use of light at night, but when creating a “dark night” environment to trigger the relic effect, only the light of the moon and starry sky is allowed, otherwise the “night” will be destroyed and the relic will temporarily leave. In fact, Shade is better at using the power of the moon, but he also has a more important mission.
After confirming that the light of Huang Yue was on, the frequency of footsteps temporarily decreased. Shade’s right hand quickly held the hand of Emilia who was about to wake up. With his left hand, he picked up the reagent bottle and drank the same amount as Emilia just now. After taking the same sleeping potion as Miss Matilda in the morning, he curled up on the ground like Miss Matilda in the morning, with his head leaning on the specially treated pillow where Emilia was lying, and he also fell into a deep sleep. go.
Thoughts fell in the dream, Shade’s purpose was to enter Emilia’s dream to stabilize her state. The important condition for expelling [Midnight Footsteps] is that the person entangled by the relic must be in a sleeping state, otherwise the relic will be completely invisible.
The effect of the potion was quite powerful, and Shade almost immediately felt trance-like after closing his eyes. When he “awakened”, he found himself in a forest he had never seen before, with snow on the ground and trees, and a silver moon above his head. He could feel that the moon appeared here because of his appearance.
It was dark at the moment, and the woods were making a rustling sound in the not very strong night wind. The surrounding scenery is not very clear, but this is not because the moonlight is weak, but because the owner of the dream is waking up.
“Where’s Emilia?”
Shad is not a dream master like Dr. Schneider. He will definitely encounter things that he cannot solve in his dreams. But fortunately, at least this time the trouble was not too big, because the sound of footsteps soon came from the depths of the woods, and then the blond elf ran quickly and appeared in front of Shade:
“Shad, run, that thing is coming!”
She took Shade’s hand without giving him a chance to speak, and ran deep into the forest with him. Shade didn’t know what was chasing them behind him. He could only feel that when Emilia grabbed his hand, the dream immediately became more stable.
This is also the reason why Shade entered Emilia’s dream instead of Miss Belindel. Compared to the witch, the elf girl trusts Shade more.
At first, it was Emilia running with Shad, but soon it turned into Shad grabbing Emilia’s hand and running. The moonlight in the dream was originally very weak, but after Shade appeared, the silver moon clearly illuminated the seemingly endless woods.
Shad didn’t know why Amelia had such a dream about being chased. He thought it was a “horror dream” at first. Most people have had dreams about being chased by bad things. Dr. Schneider and When he talked about dream analysis, he specifically mentioned this type of dream as an example.
But soon Shade knew that he had guessed wrong. The theme of this dream was definitely not horror. Because although he knew that something was chasing them from behind, the dream did not become eerie because of this, and Shade, an outsider in the dream, did not instinctively feel the fear that did not belong to him.
What’s more important is that Emilia is actually smiling.
The moonlight illuminated the dense forest, and the elf followed Shade and ran together in the forest. They didn’t feel tired, and they didn’t have to think about how to choose the way forward. The trees and terrain in the woods seemed to have deliberately created a channel for them to run forward without any scruples. They just needed to hold each other’s hands and keep moving forward. Just fine.
