Mystery: Mr. Witch and Miss Hunter

Chapter 268
Knowing that her chief engineer is knowledgeable in similar fields, Adele didn't care about what language it was, but continued to ask, "Apart from this, is there any other information?"

However, she didn't hear Wendy's answer.

The archaeologist sat on the ground with his eyes blank, facing the moss-covered stele for a long time, as if he had suddenly received a great mental shock.

"what happened to you?"

Adele shook the other party worriedly, and at the same time turned on the spirit vision without hesitation, ready to confirm the other party's status,
In her spiritual vision, Wendy's entire spiritual body appeared dark blue, almost pitch black.This is a manifestation of extreme depression, and it may even be unbearable and direct suicide.Adele had only seen similar colors in Mr. Rand who begged her to give him a good time before.

What did she learn?Adele couldn't help being curious while being astonished.

Wendy, who was shaken by Adele, woke up like a dream, jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and said loudly to Adele, "Have you brought the map?"

Adele was taken aback, and quickly found the map of the Northern Continent drawn on silk in her pocket, and spread it out in front of Wendy. "Take it, what are you going to do?"

Wendy took the map of the Northern Continent and read it over and over again, her knuckles holding the edge of the map turned white from the force.After a long time, she slumped to the ground like a deflated ball, and sighed heavily.

"...Yeah, what else can I do?"

……

The Abyss Vortex and the Bermuda Vortex, the "Fountain of Youth" on the Bimini Islands...

The geographical indications, myths and legends of the original world gradually corresponded with the reality in front of her. It was not until she saw this stele that Wendy formally connected this extraordinary world with her own.

Now it seems that the northern continent here corresponds to North America, and the vortex of the abyss is near Greenland; if the guess is correct, the "Queen Honeysuckle" has accidentally crossed the entire northern continent during the process of falling into that vortex. Arrived at Rorsted Islands, which is near the West Indies!
Although it is impossible to explain how all this happened, thinking of the occasional strange disappearance of ships inside the Bermuda Triangle, and after a period of time, empty ships will appear far away from the Bermuda Triangle, Wendy suddenly felt that Not so difficult to understand.

What a shocking discovery, if my original world is still there, I must use this to publish a paper, and go back and tell the people there that the disappearance of the ship in the Bermuda Triangle is actually caused by Extraordinary characteristics...

Wendy tried her best to pull the corners of her mouth, trying to smile, but found that she didn't even have the strength to smile, and felt extremely tired.

Although her nostalgia for her hometown is not as strong as it was at the beginning, and she has nothing to worry about there, she does not have to go back; but suddenly she knows that she has never left her hometown, but she has passed through an unknown number of years without knowing it. , she still felt as if a large piece of her heart had been torn out by something, and she felt empty.

But soon, there was another uncontrollable thought in her heart, and that thought quickly swelled up, crowding out all other thoughts.

Since the Northern Continent corresponds to North America, if I take a boat from the west coast of Intis or Fusac and sail westward, will I be able to return to Asia?
Although this idea sounds illusory, Wendy looked at the stone tablet and the map as if possessed, thinking about a possible plan for returning home in the future, until Adele twisted her body around , and then raised his hand.

"Wait, wait, I'm fine!"

Even though Wendy hadn't completely come out of the depression, her survival instinct still made her body move subconsciously, protecting her face.And almost at the same moment, Adele's slap barely stopped beside her ear, and Wendy felt her hair was blown a little.

"is it?"

Adele shrugged, "To be honest, Venata used this method on me before, and it took effect very quickly. I really want to find someone to try it."

May the gods bless you never to find the test subject...

Wendy swallowed her saliva, but then she remembered something and started to search around.

"What clue did you find?" Adele followed Wendy, looking around with her.

"...Well, I'm looking for something now."

Wendy swiftly turned over the pile of rubble, throwing the black basalt fragments aside.

Of course, she wasn't looking for the fountain of youth.If this place really corresponds to some of the previous legends, then she should still remember which direction the wetland covered by mangroves is located on this stele.

After the mysterious recovery, a large-scale crustal change should have occurred here, causing some ruins that were originally submerged to rise to the surface, while most of the buildings on the surface sank into the sea.This stele should be located exactly in the center of the volcano, so there is not much shift in position.

Before crossing, Wendy was a marine biologist. She was invited to participate in the survey of marine life near the West Indies. At that time, she even took a photo with this stele.

The islanders there will collect stones from the Bimini Wall in the surrounding sea and place them around the ruins on the surface for tourists to engrave.This can also effectively prevent tourists from scribbling on the remains.

Wendy was not very interested in this kind of behavior, but her best friend was very interested in it, and insisted on pulling her to carve their names on the stone tablet.

Since the stele is here, maybe the engravings left at that time are also there...

Wendy turned the surrounding stones obsessively. This was the first time she worked so hard on unpaid work.

Finally, before Katerina got impatient, Wendy finally found what she was looking for.

It was a gray stone covered with moss.

When the earth's crust changed, the stele toppled over in the vibration, and the exposed part was polished smooth by thousands of years of wind and rain, but the words stuck at the bottom miraculously did not disappear.

The character "You" in "Qiao Qiao Comes Here" is engraved on the stone, and the rest of the fragments have disappeared.

In this case, it is obvious that her former name is more meaningful. However, Wendy has no better choice at this time, just like she was cast here inexplicably.

Holding the stone that was carved by herself thousands of years ago, Wendy felt warm liquid swirling in her eye sockets.

After wiping her face indiscriminately, Wendy carefully hid the stone in her pocket, and said to Katerina and the others:
"Come on, I almost know where it is."

……

Looking from the top of the mountain, there is actually not much information to be seen-the trees here are very dense, covering almost everything on the island.However, Wendy still vaguely judged the location based on her own impression.

According to Wendy's memory, the Fountain of Youth is located in a saltwater swamp with mangrove forests.Of course, after thousands of years, the environment here must have undergone earth-shaking changes, and it is not easy to find it.

Because they were worried that the environment here would respond to the extraordinary ability, everyone did not use the active extraordinary ability, but only relied on the improvement of physical fitness brought by the potion, and walked forward in the forest like ordinary people.

"...So, you think we've reached the Rorsted Islands by now?"

Tracy asked suspiciously, "This is...too bizarre."

Wendy didn't tell them about her time travel, but told them that according to the information on the stone tablet, she found some special phenomena in a nearby place, which might be related to the Fountain of Youth.

Anyway, the witches couldn't understand whether it was English or Spanish.Although Katerina had some doubts, she originally planned to search the island all over, so it didn't matter to her where to search first.

"However, there is some truth to it."

Katerina frowned, but still reluctantly agreed with this point of view. "At the end of the Fourth Epoch, the God of Death was killed by the Seven Gods, but he did not die on the spot. When he returned to the southern continent, he set off a violent storm and completely cut off the waterways of the North and South Roads. This is a familiar legend."

"At that time, our Witch Sect and the Death Sect had a very close cooperation. The current leader of the Spirit Sect, Shia Lempak Eggs, was a descendant who combined the blood of the Witch and the Death God. Now that they have achieved high-sequence intermarriage, then it is indeed possible that things such as the leakage of sealed items will happen."

"So, the sunshine here is likely to be produced by the relics of other church angels? For example, the Church of 'Eternal Blazing Sun'?"

Adele asked.

"It's just speculation, and our goal this time is not it." Katerina said cautiously, "Sealing an angel-level sealed item of the 'Witch' path is not an easy task, and adding a 'Sun' Even if I can bear the high-sequence sealed artefacts on the way, your ship will soon fail."

"I'm just talking." Adele shrugged, of course she knew the truth.

"We should be almost there... If the description is correct, there should be a spindle forest there. However, it is not bad if we can find the fossils of the spindle tree now."

The plant names in this world are somewhat different from those in Wendy's memory. The mangrove tree is called the spindle tree here, named after the shape of its fruit.

"To be honest, I'm curious. There are not many symbols on that stone tablet. Even counting the small characters on the back, there are not many that can be seen clearly. How did you see so much information?"

Seeing Wendy's determined look, Adele couldn't help asking.

Because there is nothing written on the stele, I am showing you the way based on my personal experience...

Wendy complained secretly in her heart.Even in her time, the Fountain of Youth was a well-known legend. The famous "Falling into Science" column group even analyzed a special issue, and the spring in the center of the wetland, which must be reached by boat, has also become Bimini. The island is a must-see attraction, and she even swam in it.

"This language is very expressive," Wendy said perfunctorily to Adele as she hurried on her way.
"Do you know Elvish? Those elves can express quite complicated meanings in a few short syllables, and this language is similar to it. It is a language that expresses a large number of meanings with simple symbols. Later, because it often caused ambiguity And gradually no one is using it.”

The hidden meaning in her words is that this language has many ambiguities, and translation errors are very common, so don't get too angry even if you lead the wrong way.

"Well, I hope you're right."

Adele stopped pestering her and continued on her way.

Nearly half an hour later, Wendy who was walking in front suddenly cried out in surprise:

"There's a wall ahead!"

Adele and the others looked around, and they saw a section of gray incomplete wall.

Speaking of walls, there are only a few white masonry foundations left in some places, and cement-like fillers can be seen between the gaps.

The wreckage of this wall stretched intermittently to the end of everyone's field of vision. The high part was about two meters, and the low part was only the foundation.

The walls are made of white marble, each piece is about five meters long and half a meter to two meters wide, which makes people wonder what the walls looked like before they collapsed.

"It doesn't look like the architectural style of the Balam Empire."

Katerina, who has actually experienced that period of history, commented doubtfully, "The ancient buildings of the Balam Empire like to create large steps and platforms around a certain building, and the wall in the direction of the outer city is also a right-angled trapezoidal section. This kind of city wall that goes straight up and down I really haven't seen it."

"Anyway, let's go in and take a look."

Wendy carefully held the pistol in her hand, "Since there is such a building here, civilization must have existed; and if our direction is correct, then the environment around here is likely to be much more dangerous than the environment just now .”

Then, she glanced at Katerina and Tracy worriedly.

Of course, what she meant was not to make them pay attention to safety, but to remind them to protect themselves.As the floor of the four-person team, she had to rely on her teammates to have the confidence to continue exploring.

The three witches nodded one after another. Katerina asked Wendy to come to her side, while Tracy moved to Adele's side. Then, the four of them divided into two groups and walked to the other side of the big wall.

However, despite walking with the saint, Wendy unfortunately encountered an accident.

Wendy was wearing breeches, while Katerina was still wearing a long white dress, so when she stepped over the wreckage of the large wall, she was one body ahead of Katerina.However, it was precisely because of this position that Miss Archaeologist slammed into the air in front of her with a "bang", and bounced her back completely.

Seeing what happened to Wendy, Adele, who was only one step away from bumping into her, hastily used the assassin's ability to control her muscles, barely stopping her pace.

Although the tangible stone wall has been destroyed, there is an invisible air wall here!
