Chapter 1898 The Garden of Roses

Luvia and Iluna obtained invitations to attend this banquet through the Prophet Association and the Church of the Sun respectively.Now that the Battle of Green Lake is about to start, the ring warlock group doesn't mind their members relaxing for the last time.

When the familiar maids smiled and opened the downstairs door for Xia De, when Xia De saw the two standing at the door of the house looking at the starry sky, both of them turned around and smiled at Xia De.

Luvia was wearing a lavender dress and a short brown shawl hair that seemed to have grown longer recently, bound by that precious unicorn tail feather.He wears silver earrings on his ears, and a silver pendant of ouroboros on his chest, which symbolizes the identity of the Prophet Association.

Iluna was wearing a long off-white dress with an extremely complicated three-layer skirt, and emerald and ruby ​​decorations tied around her waist.She didn't wear the symbol of the Church of the Sun, and the style of the gown was relatively plain.

"Very beautiful, this dress suits you very well, Iruna."

Xia De praised softly, and the 17-year-old girl also showed a faint smile.

The three of them left the gate of the mansion together and walked towards the back garden of Qiangwei Manor.Since this place is called the "Rose Manor", it is naturally because there are many roses cultivated in the garden, and today's season is when these flowers bloom.

In the garden, only the in-ground gas lamps arranged around the walkway were on. The three of them walked among them, listening to the noise on the second floor of the mansion in the distance, and felt a little tranquility.

Tifa had arranged for the maid to stand guard outside the garden, so no one would come here to disturb the conversation of the three of them.The three walked together for a while before Luvia spoke:

"Today's ceremony was considered a success. Two angel-level relics - [Mirror of Tardis] and [Unnamed Tortoise Shell], together with the assistance of 63 fortune-tellers, finally gained something. Enter from another island The normal world does not require conditions, but entering another island from the outside can only be forcibly broken through on a specific date without permission."

"The nearest date, won't it be next Wednesday?"

Shad asked.

Luvia, who had already learned the invitation letter from Iluna, nodded, stopped to look at Xia De who was wearing a formal suit under the moonlight, and reached out to help him straighten his collar:
"Yes, next Wednesday night, the night of the Edwards family banquet. Because it has to cooperate with the astrology, the storming time will be a little later. Even if the church and association can land on the island, the time will be after the Edwards family banquet starts, and it may even be close to it." midnight."

Xia De silently nodded:

"Going to the island requires a ceremony in conjunction with the astrology to force a breakthrough. This is the plan for a large army to attack. There should be a way to allow a small number of people to enter the island, right?"

Iluna smiled:

"We knew you must have guessed it. Yes, but someone needs to cooperate on the island. The Fulun Brothers will carry a special relic to the island. At that time, through the resonance of the relic, they should be able to forcefully send some people to the island. But This method is not reliable, and the fortune-tellers on the island cannot fail to think of it."

"Is there a third way?"

"some."

Still Luvia replied:

"Use special vehicles that can penetrate space."

The believers of the old god - [Glazing Gate] mentioned that even if they find the entrance to another island, they need special vehicles to enter. Presumably this method is recorded in their materials.

"Can you be more specific? I remember that St. Byrence has a similar vehicle. I once took a sage-level relic [Midnight Nightmare Carriage] from Saint Teresa Square to the academy in the extreme north. It refers to this type of vehicle ?"

Luvia shook her head lightly, and the three of them continued to walk forward. There was a large blue rose bush in front of them, and some unknown flying insects were hovering above the ground lamp on one side:

"Because of the particularity of that island, coupled with the defensive measures laid out by Laplace Klein Howard, only special ship-type vehicles can be used. Moreover, even relics may not be feasible, they must have Extremely strong space penetrating characteristics."

"Currently, the Church of the Five Gods and the three colleges are preparing to mobilize all the relics that can be used in the current environment, and try which one works before Wednesday."

Iluna added, Xia De frowned slightly:
"I have an idea, but I'll talk about it later. As long as there is a boat?"

"It must also be Wednesday, but depending on the boat, you can try to set off about half an hour after the Edwards landed on the island. Using this method, you need a fortune-teller to lead the way on the water, with a specific direction and trajectory. Try to break through the barriers of space."

Iluna then concluded:

"In other words, after the Edwards landed on the island, there are three groups of people who can land on the island.

The first batch, relying on the small actions of the Forlan brothers on the island, the Green brothers, the pair of witches, and even the Mirror Association should be able to do the same.But this method is very difficult, so the thirteen-ring warlocks can only try it first.If successful, the first batch of people can even go to meet the fortune teller with the Edwards.

The second batch, relying on special ship-shaped relics to penetrate the space barriers of the two islands, because the carrying capacity of the relics is limited, and there is a high probability that they can only be one-way, so although this method is relatively reliable, it can only guarantee a small number of people. Landing on the island.If successful, the second group would be half an hour to an hour behind the Edwards.

In the third batch, the church relied on brute force to open the gap in space. Green Lake gathered the top ring magicians and fortune-tellers in the material world. It makes no sense to be stumped by such things.With this method, it is possible to land a large force on the island, or let the high-ring warlocks land on the island, but they will be three hours or even longer behind Edwards. "

"Xia De, I don't know yet, whether you can forcefully follow the witch Edwards to the island, what are you going to do?"

Luvia asked, Xia De stopped again, and slashed in front of him casually.Behind the cracks that gradually opened, the dark moon illuminated the deserted pale beach, and also illuminated the wooden boat parked at the junction of the beach and the black water:
"Guess, can this ship penetrate the space barrier?"

Both Iluna and Luvia knew that the ship summoned by Shad's strange thaumaturgy was related to this. After thinking about it, it should be possible:

"But if you use the second method, you will be at least half an hour behind them."

Luvia reminded, Shad nodded again:
"At the moment, I have three ideas. The first idea is to find Nadia Furren from the [Dragon Food Sect] and get relevant information from her; the second method is that the invitation letter mentions that the boatman will be waiting by the lake. Then try to deceive the boatman, I will use thaumaturgy [calm posture] to turn into a stone statue, and follow Megan and the others to the island."

"But isn't the stone statue you turned into too big? If you don't move, you may be deceived, but if the witch is carrying the stone statue, you can't hide it no matter what."

Iluna said, Shad sighed:

"So I turned into a cat first, and then into a stone statue, so the size is smaller. I don't really want to do it, but it's the only way."

Both Luvia and Iluna thought about it, and then smiled together:

"Why don't you try it now, and we'll help you check how it works."

Although they knew that they had "bad intentions", they really couldn't try again at that time.Xia De nodded helplessly, took off the relics on his body, and looked at the two girls with expectant expressions:
"Luvia, help me hold these things, and then go a little farther away. Iluna, take care of my stone statue and use illusion to cover it up."

"Ok!"

Iluna nodded quickly, and Luvia gave Shad a reproachful look, but after taking the key, perfume bottle, dice and a few rings, she really walked away.

In the moonlight, the stranger's shadow turned into a ball of light, and then that light turned into the cat's shadow again.The silver cat fell to the ground, and before Iluna stretched out her hand, stretched petrified wings unfolded from both sides of the cat, and then wrapped the whole cat, completing the whole process of petrification smoothly.

Although regretful in her heart, Iluna still bent down to touch the stone, and then used illusion to cover it up.At the same time, she understood in her heart that although Luvia was lower in level than her, she had better illusion skills and a stronger ability to break illusions as a fortune-teller, so Xia De chose to carry the stone statue by herself:
"But after all, I was chosen."

She prepared happily, and then let Luvia, who had walked away, come over.

The purple-eyed girl walked back and looked at Iluna under the moonlight. After five or six seconds, her eyes locked on the cat-shaped statue behind her pair of black high-heeled shoes.

"It's faster than I thought. I'm really not good at illusion."

Iluna shook her head regretfully, and Xia De had already appeared behind her:

"It's just a try this time. In the past few days, Megan can prepare targeted illusions. Moreover, I completed the last exploration of the time key and got the usage of the Philosopher's Stone."

He took out the silver ornaments tied around his neck, which glowed scarlet under the moonlight, and the sage's stone was inlaid in the silver ornaments:
"The production and alchemy of the elixir of life are temporarily useless to us, but using the Philosopher's Stone as a one-time consumable can achieve the 'extreme effect' of spellcasting, which should ensure that I can follow Megan to the island smoothly."

He has great confidence in the Philosopher's Stone, as do Iluna and Luvia:
"But after all, there is only one Philosopher's Stone, so it's good to use it like this. After all, it's for saving people."

Iluna nodded, and Luvia asked again:

"The first is to find Nadia Furren, the second is to combine your thaumaturgy with witch illusion, and maybe you can use some relics. Then what about the third? What else can I do? I have a coin left here, Should solve the problem."

"Coins are the last resort, and the third way is a detour. Since you can't directly land on the island from the material world, it's better to leave the material world first, and then enter another island from another place."
