"Welcome. No matter where you are from, what your status is, or what your purpose is, I always welcome new faces." The Blue Moon Witch said slowly, and then made a sign to invite in. After a while, she looked at the surprised expressions on the faces of the visitors and suddenly said: "Yes, no one has been here for many, many years, so I have forgotten what I look like. It's really sad. You know, I was also a beauty-loving woman before, and was called the 'Moon Flower of Livia'." After saying that, the witch waved her hand and touched it gently, and the withered and aging half of her body suddenly disappeared, completely. The whole beauty appeared in front of everyone. Okay, although I know this is just a small illusion, at least it looks more pleasing to the eye. After all, even Gordon could not completely ignore the terrifying and strange appearance of the witch Faretan just now without changing his expression, and have a calm conversation with her. The mage recalled the demonstration that Bai Long gave to everyone with a small tree not long ago, and secretly speculated that the Blue Moon Witch might have accidentally entered the kind of tree blocked by a blue barrier when she first arrived in this place. area, and ended up like this. Although Eamonn Reese is not a frequent visitor to this witch hut, he has obviously been here a few times. He walked into the living room first, and then sat down unceremoniously in front of a large table that was carved from a whole tree root and was four to five meters in diameter. Gordon looked at each other and Weinia who was beside him, followed Bailong and took their seats one by one. After everyone was seated, the witch directed two wooden puppets to serve tea to the first batch of guests in who knows how many years. While the girls were attracted by the extraordinary aroma of the green tea, Gordon noticed. There is a familiar tattoo pattern on the back of the Blue Moon Witch's neck. A dead tree in a swamp illuminated by the silver moon. "Isn't that the mark that one of the witcher's girlfriends also has on the witch Tris?" Gordon thought. He recalled the scene when he first met the Northumgardians in the City of Symmetry. In the team of Countess Zebela. There is a beautiful red-haired woman - the witch Tris, who is being closely guarded. On the back of her neck, she also has the same tattoo pattern as Faretan. The Neisser Magic Empire created the arcane system of the eight schools, and also created a set of rigorous and efficient education methods, which are still in use today. However, the witches of Livia have been using a more private method to ensure their inheritance. A witch and her apprentices will form families of varying sizes, such as witch families. Regardless of blood relationship, as long as they are recognized and have the same tattoo design, they are a member of the family. Gordon didn't have much research on this special group structure of witches, but he at least knew that although the witches of Livia, except for a few mavericks, most of them would use the swamp dead tree of Livia. The biggest environmental features of the area are used to depict your own tattoo patterns. But even all witches use dead swamp trees as tattoos. The specific details of each family pattern are still different and will never be repeated. So Gordon can be sure that this Blue Moon Witch is. Coming from the same witch family as Geralt's girlfriend. "That group of Northgardians came all the way to the Endless Abyss. In addition to forming an alliance with the demon lord Ironhoof Baral, their main purpose was to obtain the eternal orb 'Anzra Lucent'. And the reason why they didn't If you find it troublesome, you have to take Tris as a witch prisoner. It is also related to the Eternal Orb" Gordon connected a series of clues and came to a conclusion: this witch family is symbolized by the dead tree in Silver Moon Swamp. I'm afraid it has a very deep connection with that eternal orb. While Gordon was silently thinking, the white dragon Emmon Reese had told Faretan all the reasons why the group came here. After spending nearly ten thousand years in solitude, this guy seems to have some time to talk endlessly and have endless topics to talk about. "Oh, it turns out these are guests from Fereydon and Antolia. Speaking of which, I, a witch from Livia, can also be considered a Fereytonian After spending thousands of years alone, , It is really a gratifying thing to meet guests from my hometown." Faretan smiled softly, as elegant as a lady from the imperial capital, rather than a lonely witch living in the wild swamp. "Wait" Gordon frowned, "Ms. Faretan, you said you have lived in this place for thousands of years?" The witch nodded and said: "Yes. To be precise, it is four thousand eight hundred and two. "Seventeen years, ten months and five days." "But if you were a person of four thousand years, it would be impossible for you to have heard of Fereyton and Antoria, right? That was still the Third Age, and these two countries were not at all. does not exist?¡± Faretan said calmly: ¡°Mr. Master, you are right. But I didn't lie either. I have indeed lived here for over four thousand years. The reason for this contradictory situation is related to it. "The witch's white fingers raised up and pointed to the night sky outside the round window, the high-hanging blue moon. "Although Emmon Reese called me 'Blue Moon Witch', this title was just made up by himself. I am Faretan of Rivia, commonly known as Faretan of Silvermoon. And the blue moon in this place is not only not my symbol, it can even be said to be my enemy. The reason why I have fallen into the half-human, half-ghost state today is inseparable from it. " Seeing the audience's expressions gradually becoming solemn, the witch paused for a moment before continuing: "That blue moon is the eternal orb 'Anzela Lucent', the legendary supreme treasure that can control time and space. " "Everyone here was shocked" is the most appropriate way to describe the reaction caused by the witch's words. In addition to the mysterious and mysterious statement of "being able to manipulate time and space", what worries Gordon even more is that high in the night sky The huge blue moon hanging in the sky is actually the Eternal Orb. This is completely different from his previous knowledge. Although that treasure has very magical effects, its mentality is at least as good as its own. True to its name, it is a bead. And now the other eternal orb appearing in front of him is actually the huge blue moon above his head. And this is a problem if he wants to get it. How to take away this eternal orb? I¡¯m afraid no dimensional bag can hold such a huge object. What¡¯s more, even gods may not have the power to reach out to reach the stars. She stayed on the topic of the Eternal Orb for too long, but began to slowly tell her own experience. She is a member of the witch family "Silver Moon". She has shown extraordinary talent in magic since she was a child. It is said that she is the most promising. Become a genius whose achievements are comparable to those of the founder of the Silver Moon Family, the Everlight Witch Ximenas. It is said that she has the ability to control the passage of time and even go back to the past. Almost single-handedly, he fought against the great arcane masters of the entire Neisser Magic Empire, and finally reached an agreement with them to preserve the witch clan and its cultural heritage. Gordon probably didn't believe this statement. Even the most powerful gods cannot do this. How can a mere mortal witch have this ability? Moreover, no one has been able to learn time magic since this witch. This kind of power that can make the entire Nesser Empire tremble has disappeared. This is just like the clich¨¦ in martial arts novels: "The senior master creates a magical skill that can dominate the martial arts, but the juniors who are not qualified can not learn it, which ultimately leads to the decline of the sect." The plot is the same. So even if the Eternal Light Witch is really as powerful as the legend says, Gordon doesn't think much of the so-called magic, which is the inheritance of the system. Next. Future generations will continue to create new peaks through the continuous accumulation and summary of the predecessors. That is a healthy development process. If the Neisse Magic Empire had not suffered a sudden death due to natural disasters, the entire magic inheritance would have been discontinued. The fourth era will have a more splendid magical civilization than the third era. The magic system of the witch family has poor risk resistance and lacks vitality and growth ability. However, no matter how hard you look down on the witch, it will gradually die. The group, at least for the Witch of Eternal Light, still maintains respect for her. After all, she can be regarded as a powerful magic user with a name in history. Moreover, even if the legend that she can manipulate time is just an exaggeration, at least the Silver Moon Witch. The research on time in the First Department, even if it only stays in theory, has gone further than other mages. Even the Arcane Federation, the largest mage organization on the continent today, has great appreciation for the time magic research of the Silver Moon Witches. Faretan pursues her idol, the Witch of Eternal Light, and wants to explore the mystery of time. By chance, she found the legend of Se'anzu and the traces of the eternal orb "Anzela Road Kent" from the yellowed and dusty ancient books. So she decided to find this eternal orb to truly gain the power to control time. Gordon also needs to learn about the existence of Se'anzu from several gods with evil intentions. Faretan, however, determined the location of the Eternal Orb just by relying on divination. Of course, witch's divination is a wonderful, profound and incomparably brilliant form of prediction, even for the most skilled ones.Even the teacher can't understand it. It's different from those goddesses who use crystal balls and tarot cards to fool stupid people. It was only ten years ago that Faretan left Livia and headed for the endless abyss. But the length of time "ten years" is only for others. For Faretan himself, it is far more than this time. She successfully followed the guidance of the prophecy and entered the endless abyss. Se'anzu had not appeared at that time, but was just wandering between the gaps in the abyss level. However, the witch still relied on her magic and a little bit of luck to find the city, and finally arrived at this place where the flow of time is disordered. "At that time, the joy in my heart was simply beyond words. So after I stayed for a while, I began to explore this area shrouded in blue moonlight. And I was the same as the mage. , I saw the magnificent floating city floating in the sky at first sight. "Is there a floating city in the sky?" Bailong was shocked. With his exclamation, others also focused their attention on Gordon, who had to explain. "Yes, there is a floating city in the sky. It's just that it is shrouded in a very clever and powerful illusion. Ordinary people can't detect it at all." "Humph, isn't it just a different way to praise yourself for being unusual" Ji Er whispered. muttered. Gordon directly ignored the young lady¡¯s dissatisfaction. He said to Faretan: "Madam, you must have explored that floating city, right? Do you have any discoveries that you can share with us without any scruples? Your wonderful cabin that can fly. I think it will be the same as the floating city." "Yes, I made this hut based on some inventions of the Nesser people and then removed some materials from the floating city. It can be regarded as a super miniature floating city. A small castle where I live alone. But that trip to the floating city was not very pleasant, it could even be said to be very painful, and I can remember it forever.¡± Due to the influence of the Eternal Orb Anzira Kent. , there are many areas in this place where the flow of time is completely different from that of the normal world. This area is blocked by a mysterious blue barrier. Called the "time turbulence zone" by this witch. On the ground, because it is far away from the eternal orb suspended in the air, there are relatively few time turbulence areas. But the further you go in the air and the closer you get to the Eternal Orb, the more dense the time turbulence area becomes, and it becomes more and more manic and unstable, changing all the time. If Faretan wants to enter the floating city, he will inevitably have to pass through many obstacles in the turbulent time zone before he can reach his destination. After unremitting efforts. Faretan succeeded and finally boarded the majestic and huge floating city of Nesser. But before she could celebrate, she was horrified to find that she was trapped in a time turbulence zone. ??In the time turbulence zone that Faretan first entered. Time passes a thousand times faster. Only ten years have passed in the outside world, but this witch has spent thousands of years of loneliness in the floating city. However, it is different from the turbulent area that Gordon and his team witnessed before, which can accelerate the flow of time and make living things age instantly. Faretan has not aged in the floating city and has always maintained her youth. Later. She finally couldn't bear the current situation, being a lonely prisoner. So he made up his mind to break through the powerful barrier and escape from the floating city. Since the witch can now sit in a cozy hut and talk slowly with Gordon and his party, it means that she succeeded in the first place. Unfortunately, during the process of escaping, she accidentally entered another time turbulence area. Although it only lasted a few seconds, because she accidentally leaned half of her body into the blue barrier, half of the witch's body began to age rapidly, like a dead leaf. With such serious physical injuries, Faretan was no longer able to leave this place and had no choice but to settle down. Later, she accidentally met Eamonn Reese who accidentally entered here, and helped him set up a teleportation circle for escape. After some time passed, the arrival of Gordon and his party caused ripples in her stagnant life. "This is my story" After telling it for more than an hour, Faretan finally stopped and summarized his journey into the endless abyss. She looked at Gordon, who was lost in thought, and said to him: "Mr. Mage, if you are interested in that floating city, or want to study the eternal orb hanging high in the sky, I won't stop you. But I won't stop you. You'd better think carefully before taking action. " "Thank you for your warning. I admit that I am very interested in both the Floating City and the Eternal Orb, but my curiosity and possessiveness cannot overcome my desire for my own life. Cherish it. So I will wait until the conditions are ripe before taking action." Gordon nodded to the witch The mission Gordon received from Bahamut, the Platinum Dragon, was to retrieve the invincible legion "Gold and Silver Wings" that disappeared that year. Now, he has found this legion. It's just that everyone in the legion fell asleep because of the power of the Eternal Orb, and then the illusion formed by the condensed consciousness was sleepwalking in the city below, carrying out the cycle of futile war. So if he wants to accomplish his mission, he obviously has to eliminate the influence of the Eternal Orb on the legion. How to do this needs to be studied slowly. After the long conversation at night, everyone was tired, so they dispersed to rest. Gordon was in the hut he summoned, sorting out the various scrolls, potions and other supplies left in the dimensional bag, when he heard someone knocking on the door outside. He originally thought that his fianc¨¦e was unbearably lonely and wanted to take advantage of the temporary safety to have a secret intimacy with him. Unexpectedly, the visitor was not Venya, but the witch Faretan. Well, although this Silver Moon Witch is a first-class beauty, she is based on illusion. He wasn't crazy enough to be interested in her. And Faretan came to see Gordon in the middle of the night, so naturally it was impossible for her to have a tryst with him. "Mr. Master, how about we make a deal?" Deal? It was a word Gordon was happy to hear. Because trading means profit. "Mr. Master, from the looks of your group, it's obvious that you are not here for tourism. So sooner or later, you have to leave here, right?" "Yes. But we haven't found a way yet." Gordon said frankly. "Don't worry, I can help you leave." The witch looked directly into Gordon's eyes. (To be continued)?¡
