Shadow trail of the beautiful world

Chapter 356. Disaster and Seal

Merlin was sitting in a very simple and knowledgeable room.

In front of him, beside him, and on the wall of this room, there are tall bookshelves filled with various books.

Merlin is a wizard, and he is very sensitive to knowledge. He can see that the books on these bookshelves emit a faint magical light, which means that these books should contain deep knowledge of magic.

In front of his eyes, the bald lady in a moon-white robe was brewing a pot of tea with elegant movements. In the blending of hot water and tea leaves, a peaceful atmosphere was rippling in the room .

This should have been a very suitable environment for conversation, but there were discordant voices.

"woman!"

The blackened arrogant Queen Ruiwen jumped up from the chair, she looked at the surrounding environment vigilantly, she didn't even look at Merlin beside her, she clenched her fingers tightly, and a dangerous black energy shot out of her hand like a sharp sword , smashing everything in front of him to pieces.

Ruiwen, who was in a state of dementia, didn't keep her hand at all. She turned her wrist, as if holding a sharp sword that would destroy everything, and wanted to destroy the entire room and even the building.

There was undisguised malice in her eyes, a love of destruction like a naughty child playing with fire.

Even Merlin himself was pulled closer into the dark light beam. He could feel the pain of his body being torn apart. He could see the teapot that the bald lady was pouring out of was disintegrated. He could see The bookcase behind the boss was smashed to pieces, those precious magic books were scattered everywhere, flames, black flames were dancing.

Everything in front of him must be crushed under the will of the arrogant queen.

But the next moment, it was like turning back time.

Sawdust flying around, broken pottery, books being set on fire, torn bodies, and blood flying around, all followed the wonderfully reversed time and quickly returned to their original appearance.

Everything is exactly the same as before.

Merlin turned around in a daze, and Ruiwen sat beside him with the same dazed expression as before, but in front of his eyes, the bald lady's tea had already been brewed.

The waves of time did not affect her.

It was as if she had transcended time.

"woman!"

Ruiwen jumped up angrily as before, she clasped her fingers, and a dangerous black beam burst out from the palm of her hand.

"Snapped"

There was a soft sound, like the snap of fingers.

The time flow that belonged to Riven was frozen.

Right in front of Merlin's eyes, his naughty, darkened, destructive, slightly mentally ill younger sister was maintaining that angry posture, her eyes widened, her teeth gritted, her hair fluttering, The brows were furrowed again, like a sculpture performing beauty.

The most surprising thing is that even the destructive power from Sangong, the light that burst out in the form of beams, was also frozen.

"Is she your relative?"

The bald lady was sitting on the cushion in front of Merlin. She stretched out her hand and gently pushed the 7-point tea cup, and a cup of tea appeared in Merlin's hand.

He didn't even see how the cup of tea got into his hand.

But reason told him that it was best not to delve into these unimportant issues.

Holding the tea, he tried his best to maintain the most gentle smile, and he said to the big man in front of him:

"No, Raven and I are not related by blood, but there is a symbolic connection between us."

The bald lady also picked up a cup of tea. She took a sip of the tea and said to Merlin:

"Don't call me 'bald lady' in your heart, it's very impolite. Mr. Merlin, you can call me Supreme Master, or simply call me Ancient One."

"Okay, Ms. Gu Yi."

Merlin immediately restrained his mind to prevent his will from wandering to weird places. He lowered his head and tried his best not to look at the bald head of the lady in front of him.

But in Merlin's heart, there was an unconcealable shock.

A few years ago, he knew from Dumbledore that in the wizarding world, there was an existence known as the Supreme Sorcerer. She was the current rule-maker in the wizarding world and even the mysterious world, and she was a supreme figure.

Other than Sangong, this was the first time he faced such a rule-level boss.

"You are all children of Sangong."

Ms. Gu Yi put down the teacup, she looked at Rui Wen with great interest, and then at Merlin, she said:

"Well, they are all those kind of strange 'children'. In the past countless eras, there would not be one, but now there are two at a time, which is really strange."

"strange..."

Merlin savored this comment, and after a while, he raised his head and looked at Ms. Gu Yi, with a look of apprehension in his eyes, he said:

"Ma'am, I have been looking for a way to escape from the fate imposed by Sannomiya, although it is presumptuous, but..."

"I know what you want to say."

The Supreme Mage raised her hand and interrupted Merlin, she said:

"I can help you."

"really?"

Merlin's tone became agitated at this moment, like a person who pursued the light in the dark and finally saw the sun, he said in a hasty tone:

"So, what do I need to pay?"

"Nothing."

Ms. Gu Yi said softly:

"Fate has been so unfair to you that it doesn't even give you the right to 'quit'. I'm sorry for what happened to you, boy, and if you really want to get out of this, I can help you now .”

"You, do you really want to quit?"

Merlin instinctively wanted to answer "yes".

But at the moment when the words came out, he suddenly closed his mouth.

He looked suspiciously at the Supreme Mage in front of him, and after a while, he said:

"You know, those things behind me?"

"Yes."

Ms. Gu Yi looked at Merlin, she said:

"I know very well, but I can't tell you."

"If I 'quit', what is the result?"

Merlin asked again:

"Am I going to die? Or will I go somewhere else and start my life anew?"

"I do not know."

The Supreme Master said frankly:

"You came from behind that 'door', which is a field I haven't stepped into. I can only tell you that once you choose to quit, your existence will disappear from this world. What you love, what you hate, everything Everything that was expected will vanish.”

"You go back to where you came from. A new soul takes your place and everything starts over, but that has nothing to do with you anymore."

"So, 'exit' means..."

Merlin said softly with some disappointment:

"Actually, let me leave everything behind and crash into another world that I know nothing about?"

"Well, in theory it is."

The supreme mage picked up the teacup, and she said calmly:

"Those misbehaving children didn't ask your opinion before starting, so I'll give you the missing link, Merlin, choose carefully."

"Once you make a decision, there's no going back."

Facing the choice given by the supreme mage, Merlin remained silent.

He has lived in this world for 30 years, and it is difficult for him to make up his mind to abandon all of this. Most importantly, even if he chooses to abandon, the result may not necessarily be satisfactory.

He may fall into a more miserable situation than he is now.

This is an uncertain adventure, as long as he is rational, he will not choose this option recklessly.But in a sense, the key to fate is indeed in his own hands now.

After a while, Merlin took a deep breath, raised his head, and said to the Supreme Mage in front of him:

"I can't make up my mind."

"It's ok."

Ms. Gu Yi replied with a smile:

"When you want to make a decision, come here to find me, Merlin. I know it's difficult, but I believe that at some point in the future, you will finally make a decision and choose your own destiny."

"This is the power you deserve. But I'm sorry, before that point comes, I must first seal this memory of yours."

The Supreme Mage said to Merlin:

"I think you can understand what I mean by doing this, right?"

"Well, I can understand."

Merlin closed his eyes and said:

"Come on then, I've already..."

"Swish"

The next moment, Merlin opened his eyes in a daze. He looked at the Supreme Mage who was making tea in front of him, and the arrogant Queen Ruiwen who was frozen in time beside him, who seemed to be performing Yan Yi.

With a trace of apprehension, he said softly to the big man in front of him:

"Ma'am, I have been looking for a way to escape from the fate imposed by Sannomiya, although it is presumptuous, but..."

"Sorry, Merlin."

The Supreme Mage raised his head, glanced at Merlin, and she said:

"I can't help you, at least not at this point in time."

"why?"

Merlin asked in surprise:

"I've heard your legend. Didn't you personally set up the blockade between dimensions? Could it be that you, like this, can't solve the magic power left by Sangong?"

"I can."

The supreme mage stretched out his hand and gently pushed the teacup, and the cup of tea fell into Merlin's hands silently.

She also picked up a cup of tea herself, and explained to Merlin slowly:

"But not necessary."

"What do you mean? Master, please explain clearly."

Merlin asked.

Ms. Gu Yi glanced at him, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, she replied leisurely like a real magic stick:

"Because it's not yet time."

Seeing that Merlin was about to ask another question, the Supreme Mage shook her head. She looked at the arrogant Queen Ruiwen who was frozen in time, and said:

"Let's put aside the issue of fate for now, Merlin, you still have a more difficult matter to deal with."

Merlin also looked at Ruiwen, he frowned, and said to the supreme mage:

"Master, Ruiwen was not like this before. Although she was a little arrogant, cold, and unapproachable before, she was a good girl who preserved her kindness before. Sangong used a trick to pour its evil power into Rui into Wen's body, turning her into what she is now."

"I know."

Ms. Gu Yi stood up and walked up to Ruiwen. She looked at the girl's delicate face and flowing black hair, and said softly:

"The original sin in her was forcibly activated...Arrogance, her potential is amazing."

"Master, can you cure her?"

Merlin stood behind Ms. Gu Yi, he asked.Ancient One nodded, she looked back at Merlin, she said:

"I can seal the original sin, but I need one thing. It's in your hands."

"In my hand?"

"Yes, the projection of Sangong is a ray of real power left in the material world."

Supreme Mage said:

"It's very rare."

"Is it this one?"

Merlin put his hand into his pocket. After a while, he took out a box and opened it. Inside was the orange ball of light that he found from the skeleton of Constantine who was possessed by Sangong.

He glanced at the sphere of light, then handed it to the Supreme Sorcerer.

Ms. Gu Yi looked at Merlin, she emphasized her tone:

"Are you really willing to use it to help Raven?"

"You have to know, Merlin, this 'true power' is completely different from the power seed injected into your body by Sangong. It can make the son of Sangong reach the peak of ordinary power in an instant. If you absorb Once you have it, you will immediately become stronger...have at least 5 times the magic power of your own body!"

"Do not."

Merlin shook his head, he said indifferently:

"I do not need."

"why?"

The Supreme Master asked meaningfully:

"Why don't you want it? You may not know its value, let me explain to you."

"This thing."

Gu Yi held up the box in her hand, and she said:

"It is a treasure that has only appeared less than three times in the wizarding world since its establishment. You can exchange it for many things. As long as you ask a price, some wizards are willing to take over, and even some extraordinary forces will be eager to get it."

"You can trade it for wealth, for hope, for a new life."

Gu Yi looked at Merlin, she was like a temptation, and said softly:

"You can even use it to hire some extraordinary people and ask them to help you find a way to escape the magic power of Sangong... Such a precious thing, are you sure you want to use it to save a girl you don't even know well?"

"You should know that the connection between Rui Wen and you is only on a symbolic level. Even if you use this thing to save her, all you can gain is gratitude."

"Don't tempt me again, master. I have already suffered a loss once, and I should learn a lesson."

Merlin took a step back, his eyes blinked, and he said to Gu Yi:

"And if you go on, I may not be able to make up my mind... Hurry up and treat her, before I regret it."

Gu glanced at Merlin, she turned around, roughly grasped the real power left by the ball of Sangong, and pressed the orange ball of light on Ruiwen's forehead in a pressing way.

At this moment, time was in chaos before Merlin's eyes.

With the pressure of the ball of light, Rui Wen's appearance is constantly changing, she sometimes becomes a more mature woman, sometimes a toddler, sometimes the indifferent girl before, and sometimes He Sangong A female demon with a very similar appearance.

That was the transformation of Ruiwen in different time periods of her life, which represented that the power of darkness that was destined to accompany her was extracted and sealed in the light ball in the hands of the Ancient One mage.

After a while, the ball of light was completely pressed into Ruiwen's forehead, leaving only the last piece, and its color also changed, similar to a diamond-shaped crystal ornament, attached to the forehead above Ruiwen's eyes.

Under the shining light, Ruiwen's size shrank rapidly, and soon returned to the cold little girl before.

"finished."

Mage Ancient One withdrew her hand, she looked at Rui Wen who was sleeping in front of her, and said to Merlin:

"Original sin is sealed, you can take her away, Merlin."

"But I want to remind you that this seal is not omnipotent. Once she loses control of her extreme emotions, the original sin is likely to be awakened again."

The Supreme Mage turned her head, she waved her hand, and a black magic book fell into Merlin's hands, she said to Merlin:

"Since you are willing to save her, then just save her to the end."

"This child longs for a home in his heart. I think you can satisfy her trivial wish."

Ms. Gu Yi waved her hand as if saying goodbye.

"As for this book... just treat it as a reward for kindness."

The next moment, a magic book locked in a thin chain fell into Merlin's arms, and then Merlin and Ruiwen, who was in his arms, disappeared into this mysterious building like quicksand, as if they had never Same thing happened.

The supreme mage sighed, she turned her head, and on the chair behind her, a yellow-skinned man in a suit and with a strange bracelet on his wrist looked at her with an unkind expression.

"Long time no see, Overlord."

Ms. Gu Yi said softly:

"I...have been waiting for you for a long time."
