Chapter 2894 The Story of the Egg
"Well, no matter what, you are really amazing. I just counted and there were fifteen ring sorcerers present, and you were able to suppress them all at the same time."
Xia De praised again, and the doctor immediately shook his head:
"That's because they all use demonic power. I have a natural ability to suppress these people. And you also know what kind of power I fear the most. The [Fog Raven Brotherhood] obviously won't use that kind of power. Otherwise, let alone whether I could defeat that eleventh-ring warlock just now, I might not be able to defeat even a ring warlock of the same level as me easily."
Although there was a hint of modesty in this, what the doctor said was also true. The [Mist Crow Brotherhood] was naturally restrained by him, so he was able to display such strong power just now.
Judging from the number of people in the camp, the ring warlocks here should not be all members of the Brotherhood. It's just that Shade has no intersection with them for the time being, so there is no need to be curious about other people's secrets:
"So since the materials are ready, shall we still meet on Monday night? It's Sunday now, can we finish the preparations in one day?"
Xia De asked again, and the doctor was very confident:
"Not one day, but two days. It's only eleven o'clock on Sunday morning. We'll still meet on Monday night. Don't forget to bring the book."
He turned and left, and when the doctor was far away, the owl holding the sword fell from the sky. She released her claws at a height of ten meters, and when Shade caught the Night Watchman, the owl also landed accurately on Shade's shoulder.
She didn't discuss the friend just now with Xia De:
"Found it. The eggshell guided me and I dug out a rusty iron box under a big tree in the camp. Inside was a wooden key."
That key was not a time key, but it was not an ordinary item either, and Shade almost immediately realized what the function of this key was.
After meeting up with Sylvia and the others, the group returned to the boat on Lake Yuren. They just caught up with lunch on the Shining Messenger. After lunch, Shade took out the wooden board left on the boat, and then looked forward to pointing the key dug out from the camp at the "door" symbol.
But nothing happened.
"Try to hit it a few times."
The very experienced Miss Elither said at the side. At this time, the maids were cleaning the table, and the girls who did not need to go out in the afternoon were watching what Shad was doing.
Miss Danister had not returned from contacting the church, and Vanessa continued to lead the team out, so Miss Sylvia stayed in the hotel. Luvia, Ajelina, Dorothy, Flora, Granny Cassandra and Xiwei were all there, and they saw Shad knock the tip of the key twice on the wooden board, and then with a sudden force, the key "pierced" the wooden board directly.
But looking at the back of the board, there was clearly no key piercing through it.
"Is this the key to 'unlock' the seal?"
Xiwei asked curiously. Xiade tried to turn the key, but the amplitude was very slight. The leaf pattern around the wooden board did not disappear or glow, but the patterns engraved on the surface of the wooden board glowed:
"The lock on the board has nothing to do with this key. Someone has put something else in the board, and this key is for that thing. Miss Elaether, is it safe for me to open this lock here?"
Three huge gun barrels appeared behind the boat girl and pointed at Shade's hands:
"It's safe now."
She said this, but in fact, the gun barrel was just joking with Shade. Everyone felt that there was a strange change on the outside of the wall of this room. She was separating the space where the banquet hall was located from the interior of the cabin, so that even if this room was damaged, it would not affect other parts of the ship.
However, this meant that the maids could not enter and exit normally for the time being. So Miss Bell and Miss Swift asked everyone to put down their work and come and see what would happen next.
With a click, Shad turned the key, but everyone was ready for battle. Dorothy even led Ajelina by the hand and she retreated to the wall, but no danger occurred.
Everyone saw the symbols engraved on the surface of the wooden board light up one by one, and then the light gathered at the center of the board, until a huge square of light and shadow was projected above the board.
So Xia De pinched the air with his left hand, and with his ability to control light, he dimmed the lights in the banquet hall, making the light and shadows clearer.
As the light and shadow appeared, the sound of falling snow echoed around, and then the wind whistled. Ajelina, who had just come to join in the fun, brightened her eyes, and after sitting down with Dorothy, she looked up at the light and shadow projected in the sky.
She thought it was like watching an opera, but opera didn't have such realistic sets and ambient sound effects.
The light and shadow spreading from the wooden board soon spread into a larger area, and in the light and shadow was a forest full of snow. The sound of the whistling wind and the sound of the falling snow became louder and louder, until it was no longer possible to tell whether the sound came from the picture or the surroundings.
And in the center of the light and shadow, there is an egg buried in the snow, with only the top of the eggshell showing through the thick snow.
Xia De then placed the wooden board on the table and gently pushed it to the center of the long table. Immediately, the light and shadow also moved to the center of the banquet hall, allowing everyone to see it clearly.
From his position, a line of Carsenrick letters appeared on the left side of the screen:
[Sixth Era 227, deep winter.]
"This is the year that the dragon egg I predicted was born."
Luvia's voice appeared amid the sound of the wind and snow, and Flora judged:
"The pattern on this dragon egg is consistent with the eggshell fragments we found. This is the egg of that dragon beast."
Their faces were illuminated by the light, and Granny Cassandra said:
"Judging from the thickness of the snow, the egg should be half a meter tall. Normally, the dragon beasts bred from this kind of egg should not be as big as what we see."
The wind and snow became stronger and stronger, and the dragon egg was soon completely buried in the snow. Fortunately, even if the dragon beast was not a pure-blooded dragon, it would not freeze to death in such a harsh environment, but it would definitely have problems when hatching due to such hardships.
Time seemed to be accelerated. Snowflakes gradually became smaller in the whistling cold wind, and the sun became brighter and brighter. Then winter turned to spring, and the time in the upper right corner became the spring of 228. Flowers and green grass grew out of the soil at a speed visible to the naked eye, surrounding the dragon egg.
Ants built nests around the warm egg, sparrows rested on the egg and flew away. A long snake was in the grass, ready to attack the rabbit, but after the rabbit ran away, it found the egg. It swam out of the grass, wrapped its body around the giant egg and tried to crush it, but found it was powerless and disappeared into the distance of the forest.
A rumble of thunder startled Ajelina, and Dorothy grabbed her hand. As the light in the picture darkened, the sound of rain seemed to follow closely around them. The soil became moist, the trees continued to grow wildly, and the weeds had covered half of the dragon egg.
With the arrival of summer, several rainstorms and strong winds moved the egg, and a passing wild boar hit the egg, causing it to cross the distance of several trees, but the egg was still located in the center of the light and shadow.
As the sun rose and set, the green forest began to turn golden again. The falling leaves quickly buried the dragon egg. The squirrels that came to look for pine cones were startled when they saw the egg after turning over the fallen leaves. But when they saw that the dragon egg was motionless, they quickly climbed up the tree and ran away.
"Meow~"
Everyone was curious about why there was a cat meowing in the forest, and then they followed the sound and saw Shad knocking on Mia's head in the dim light in the room.
Seeing that there was no danger, Miss Elither released the restrictions on the room. Miss Bell wanted to take people to prepare tea for the witches and Shade, but found that the maids didn't seem to want to leave. They all wanted to see what would happen next - even Miss Swift stared at the light and shadow.
So the pale-faced Miss Bell had to go to the door herself and call the maid outside to prepare tea and snacks. She stood at the door and looked back into the room, watching the first snowflakes falling next to the withered yellow leaves, and winter came again.
Flowers bloom and fade, the seasons cycle rapidly, starting from the winter of 227th year of the Sixth Era, as the years passed, time passed faster and faster in the light and shadow. In the first few springs, animals could be seen moving around the egg, but soon everything was just a fleeting afterimage, and the egg kept moving for various reasons throughout the year.
But no one took it away. Neither wind, frost, rain, nor snow could kill it. Only this forest remained with it.
Fortunately, the acceleration of time has an upper limit after all. When the time in light and shadow reached 20, 247 years later, it continued to move forward at the highest speed.
Year after year, spring goes to summer, summer goes to autumn, autumn goes to winter, and finally another spring comes. Moss gradually appears on the surface of the originally smooth dragon egg, but it becomes clean because it is licked by a group of goats, and then becomes dirty again in the autumn of another year because it falls into a mud pit.
It just kept circulating in the forest. Although the stories year after year seemed monotonous, everyone watched it very seriously. When the letters showing the time on the screen came to the 308th year of the Sixth Era, the time in the light and shadow finally returned to its most normal speed.
"This is the earliest time corresponding to this tree hole."
Xia De then reminded them softly, but everyone was watching very seriously, so he only said one sentence.
