Chapter 2586 The Second Tree Hole
When the red-haired girl pinched her waist and spoke, she showed the sternness of a teacher who had been in school all year round, which obviously scared the ghost of Miss Bettany.
The ghost came out of the wall again, and this time she waited for half a minute before coming back. Of course, only half of his face was still exposed in the wooden house. Shade guessed that the outside was covered by the shadow of the trees.
"I can answer the question, but can you not send me away after that? I think, I want to play for a while longer."
The ghost begged, and Miss Daniste nodded:
"Yes, we promise you."
"No, let him tell you, are you his lover or his student? That man is the one who loves you!"
Miss Bettany pointed at Shade, and the red-haired girl took a deep breath to calm her temper, then waved to Shade, who then nodded and said:
"We promise you. But you must promise not to hurt anyone, otherwise I will definitely come back to find you."
Actually, this warning doesn't mean much. Judging from the strength of this soul, she probably doesn't have the ability to hurt people. She can only scare the timid ones in her dreams.
So Miss Bettany’s soul completely floated into the wooden house, and then nodded quickly:
"No problem, I promise not to hurt anyone."
After speaking, he pointed to the door:
"There is actually nothing unusual here, except that I heard two strange sounds. There was obviously no living person here, but I heard two loggers complaining about not having a holiday this month, and once I heard There was a thunderstorm, but the weather was clear that day."
Miss Danister's eyes lit up. This was clearly the same as the broom room where the cabinet was located, indicating that there must be a "tree hole" nearby.
"Where is the source of the sound? Is it in the well where you are?"
Xia De asked again, very worried that he would jump into that kind of place, but luckily Soul shook his head hurriedly:
"On the ground. I was also very curious at the time, and I wandered around looking for it. The source of the sound was roughly around here, yes, it was near this wooden house."
"Echoes from the past!"
Shad immediately cast a spell, but after listening for a while, no strange sound came from it. Combined with what the ghost said, the recent activity of the "tree hole" here should be far less than that of the cupboard.
"Are there so many tree holes in the Vista area? I have never heard of digging up this area three feet in other places. I want to find the door too!"
As the sorceress was about to take action, Shade stopped her:
"Don't bother me, I'll do it."
He took the red-haired girl out of the wooden house and went outside. The ghost of Ashley Bettany plunged into the well covered by the stone slab, but stuck his head out and looked at it again.
Then Miss Danister turned back and waved, and a layer of red moonlight covered the mouth of the well, blocking the ghost's prying eyes.
"Remember? That cabinet was immune to my spell last time."
Xia De asked, the sorceress recalled it and then looked at the wooden house in front of her:
"Toy transformation, right? But this one is so big, you"
"Would you know if you try it?"
Shad took out a handkerchief from his pocket. In fact, it was a toy made from a huge canvas. Then he took out the small pink bottle. The bright pink liquid looked even more crystal clear in the afternoon sun.
Shad took off the lid and took a sip, then wiped the "handkerchief" on his body, and then threw the rapidly growing canvas into the air.
The spell controlled a large piece of canvas to float to the top of the wooden house, and then accurately covered it underneath. As Shade frowned slightly and began to cast spells, the outline under the canvas quickly shrank and became smaller.
This is the largest item that Shade has handled since he learned "Toy Making". However, because it is hollow and has a small mass, the spiritual consumption is smaller than he thought, even if he didn't drink it just now. That mouth essence should also work:
"It turns out that I am already so powerful."
Soon, the huge canvas seemed to be lying on the ground of the lumberyard. Miss Daniste stretched out her hand to let the canvas fly again. In addition to the exquisite wooden house model the size of a human head, what was covered under the canvas was There was also a wooden door that had been eaten away by insects.
That's the door of the wooden house.
"I'll come."
Shad immediately came over and was about to take out the black time key to see if it could be turned. Unexpectedly, Miss Danister handed him a normal time key directly:
"Ask the college for it."
Of course, a normal key would be better. Shade stretched out his hand to stand the wooden door up and then put the key close to the keyhole:
"May the World Tree protect me in infinite time."
The key was successfully inserted into the rusty keyhole, but Shade's wrist tried hard but failed to turn. Both of them were startled for a moment, and Xia De immediately made a guess:
"Although they both use keys, opening the tree hole is different from opening the door to the 'Time Corridor'. The focus of the former is the tree hole itself, while the focus of the latter is the key. So the door of the latter only needs It’s okay if it’s a door, but the former door must be a door.”
After thinking about this, he and Miss Danister stepped back together, transformed the wooden house back into shape, and then leaned the door against the door frame:
"May the World Tree protect me in infinite time."
With a click, the key was turned.
[Outlander, you have opened a "twisted tree hole". 】
[Tips from the Father of the Infinite Tree:]
[Using the normal time key to open the door will connect to the following time point: 1821, the sixth era of the present world. 】
[Note, except for you, any life that uses this channel will be cursed by time. 】
[Note that you can enter the past twenty minutes through the abnormal channel here, and you must return through this channel after the time is over. 】
[Note that after using the key to open the door here twice, the passage will completely collapse. 】
"How was it?"
The red-haired girl asked expectantly, and Shade did not disappoint her with a smile:
"Connected to 1821, it can still be used twice. The last cabinet I met was also usable twice. Is it a coincidence?"
"Did the teacher from that time actually come to Ximu Town 33 years ago?"
The sorceress was a little distracted, so Shade took the opportunity to ask:
"Have you graduated by then?"
"No, I was just a kid at that time. You can't even think of deducing my age from this."
She said this immediately, and then looked at the door with a serious expression:
"If you use both opportunities now, what will happen to this door?"
"I don't know, this is not a normal time tunnel. It may be that the distortion disappears, but there may be some bad consequences, so it is best not to do this."
Xia De shook his head. If these "twisted tree holes" are really disasters caused by changes in the world, then I am afraid that the consequences will not be simply the disappearance of tree holes.
Miss Danister pursed her lips and nodded:
"Fortunately, this tree hole can be used twice."
"Even if it can be used twice, I can't let you use it. Do you still remember what you promised me?"
The red-haired girl nodded reluctantly:
"I see, it's really... Sui Shade, do you think the teacher came to three years ago through this door? Was it like me and Flora who encountered an accident where the tree hole opened unsteadily, or was it like you?" It is most likely an accident to open the door with a key, and the teacher does not have the gift of time."
[Unexpectedly, the twisted tree hole opened with the time key is a one-way door. 】
"Unexpectedly, the tree hole opened with the time key is a one-way door. I can only come back from the past because of time constraints."
Xia De explained:
"So your teacher is most likely contaminated with a time curse. If we can find her, maybe we can figure out whether she expelled the curse. Did she never talk about time travel and time curses before she disappeared? ”
Xia De asked seriously. The red-haired girl shook her head in disappointment:
"No, never. The teacher doesn't tell me everything, but I will tell you everything I know. The teacher and I are different."
She didn't want to show her closeness to Shade, but she wanted to show that she was doing better than the teacher - this is a child's way of getting angry.
"It's almost four o'clock in the afternoon, let's go back now. This door will be placed in your room from now on, but it must be placed in the innermost room of the suite, and you cannot approach it casually. I don't want you to be involved again. past time."
Judging from the experience of the cabinet, as long as you are not too close to these "twisted tree holes", you will not be involved in it at will.
"I know. When I go back, I will check the relics left by the teacher again. Maybe there are clues that I didn't notice before."
The red-haired girl said, her tone not very low. Being able to discover this door was something she didn't expect before going out this morning. Now that Shade is by her side, she believes that one day she will be able to see her teacher across time.
Even if she can’t meet him, Denister Gustave is already satisfied with letting Shade meet the teacher:
"Xia De, if someone in Ximu Town masters a safe way to travel through time, will you stop me from using this door in this way?"
"You mean Baron Cumming and his son?"
Xia De asked, turning to look at the well again. Although he promised not to deal with the ghost, he still had to use the spell - [Oath Binding] to ensure that Miss Ashley Bettany would not hurt anyone or speak nonsense.
"Yes."
"That won't work either. I don't believe that traveling through time through the 'Twisted Tree Hole' can be done at no cost. This is a disaster of time."
As he said that, he walked towards the well, and the red-haired girl followed. The door floated behind them:
"So you think you are the only exception. Shade, you are so arrogant~"
She poked Shade's arm from behind with some dissatisfaction.
"Arrogance is indeed my original sin. Listen to me today. I will not let you use this door."
"I don't want to use it either. Am I the kind of impulsive person? But Shade, when I recover, just wait for me to give you homework~"
