Ling nodded and apologized for her attitude before she sat on the side of the earthen bed and put the glass tube on the table.

"I think Ayla got the contamination while divining the origin of this eyeball."

"Divination?"

Hyde doubts this.

"Although divination is indeed dangerous to a certain extent, will wizards who have reached our level be eroded to this extent in ordinary divination?"

It is not impossible for Ella to look like that, even if some people say that she looked directly at a great existence with malicious intent.

For senior wizards with powerful magic, they have rich experience and a good understanding of the dangers that exist in the occult.Even if you really see something that shouldn't be seen during the divination, a high-ranking wizard in good spirits has the ability to forcibly interrupt the divination process.

This may cause them to be harmed to a certain extent, or even polluted and corroded, but it will never become such an almost out-of-control state.

"But that's where the problem lies."

Ling looked at the silver-haired girl sleeping on the dirt bed with a complex expression, and some negative thoughts inevitably flashed through his mind: Are those secrets so important, worth your reckless nonsense?Abandoning reason, abandoning mission, even I...

She shook her head, trying to clear the mess of thoughts.Now is not the time to be entangled in this kind of thing, at most, wait for Ella to teach her a lesson after she wakes up.

Ling continued: "We all know Ella's talent well. Do you think she will not be able to interrupt her divination?"

This is an optional process, just as Professor Anderson failed to resist the temptation to resurrect his wife.The babbling in the magic ritual itself did not cause him to lose control, but his behavior of peeping at some kind of existing wisdom and attempting to break the boundary between life and death doomed his end.

Hyde was silent for a few seconds, then replied thoughtfully.

"You mean...she failed to withstand the temptation and chose to actively accept forbidden knowledge?"

"Ella's mental state should be fine. What did she see during the divination that made her make this choice?"

The cold night wind poured in from the glassless round window, causing the candlelight on the table to dance violently a few times, and the black shadow under the firelight was elongated and deformed like a hideous ghost.

Ling's voice sounded a little gloomy in the wind,

"This eye—don't you think it looks familiar?"

Hyde took the glass jar, and he suddenly felt that he had seen this thing somewhere before.A long time ago, when Hyde was still jealous of Ella Williams for some naive victories, he had entrusted the family's intelligence officers and some Kraft students to investigate all of Ella's information.

Among them is the alchemy tool that once belonged to the prophet Sibilla - the Eye of Hermes.The pattern and power of the bronze mirror had been drawn up in detail on several pages of parchment and sent to his single dormitory desk in Kraft.

The moment such an eyeball caught my eye, the pattern on the parchment overlapped with it in my memory.

"The eye in the amber! Did you dismantle that alchemy tool?"

Before he finished speaking, Ling slapped the complete Eye of Hermes on the table.

"How is this going?"

Hyde opened his mouth wide, and now he feels a little scalp numb.Because these two eyes look so similar, just like the left and right eyes of the same person.

The prophetic activity of Kexibilla was at least 2000 years ago. According to records, she created the three alchemy props at about the same time.Leaving aside the part protected by magic power, could it be that this dirty-looking eyeball placed in a glass tube has existed for more than 2000 years?

"The Eye of Hermes...Hermes, Thoth, Mercury, the Three Greats, the God of Alchemy and Magic—isn't the name of this alchemy item just a description and Exaggeration, they belong to the real body? The prophet Sibyl made an eye of God into an alchemy tool?"

Hyde's thinking became a little confused. He stood up unsteadily from his chair and spit out such a ridiculous inference.

He did not discover divinity in this eyeball, if this is really a relic of God, it may seem a bit too shabby.This absurd idea was quickly ruled out by Hyde.

"This thing was left by the shadow—you mean she went out for a stroll, and then casually found the inheritance of the gods from that wendigo?"

Ling shook his head and continued his reasoning.

"I'm not interested in the origin of the eyes, but Ella's abnormality is definitely related to it... She may have seen something related to herself in this divination—you remember, the one who died at 100 Norbird Williams years ago."

"The content of the raving that Ella heard was related to him, whether it was the prophet or the man who died 100 years ago... I don't think it's a coincidence that this thing appeared in Nod, it may be far away Far more dangerous than we thought."

She paused, and held the sleeping girl's cold hands.

"Especially for Ella."

The silver-haired girl just lay quietly on the soil bed, her eyes closed, and her breathing was weak.

Chapter 50 Keeping it secret

"So Hyde, you know what I mean too."

Ling stopped talking, as if he didn't intend to continue talking.

Hearing this, Hyde nodded.From the investigation a long time ago, he vaguely felt that Ella Williams' life experience was a little weird.Presumably Kleist's sudden change and her abnormal behavior this time are mostly related to that.

It's not like Hyde and the others haven't mentioned related topics with Ella before, but the latter doesn't know much more than they do.

It's not like a lie, Ella was only nine years old when she entered the school, so it can be said that she grew up with them.And when Howard Yousef was the executive officer, the files of the girl before she was nine years old were also collected and kept in Kraft's reference room.

Parenthood doesn't determine everything.

At least that's what Hyde thinks. On the contrary, if you look at everything from birth, it will violate his principles.

No matter how weird the girl's life experience is, Ella is Ella, the rival he once thought was the best, the person he liked, and an indispensable member of them.

But this is only for a small number of trustworthy people. Perhaps some core members of the alliance are also reliable, but not all of the envoys are like this.

"You're right, we should... keep things about Ayla and this eye a secret for now."

Hyde let out a breath, although this approach made him feel a little uncomfortable.

"Yes, but the power of the envoys is still indispensable. As representatives of the alliance, we should make full use of this resource."

Ling glanced at her pocket watch. According to the time she calculated, Fitili should have been informed to others.

Hyde was stunned, he felt a little familiar with this way of speaking, he laughed dumbly and said:

"That sounds like something a shadow would say."

"If it was a shadow, she would have said 'this is a reasonable benefit for members of the alliance'."

Ling reluctantly grinned, as if imitating Shadow's cynical smirk.It can be seen that her spirit is very poor now, this is just a forced mental bickering.

Ling felt that he might go crazy if he kept silent at such a time.

"Speaking of the shadow...you never asked us what clues we got. Aren't you chasing her? Why doesn't it look like you're in a hurry?"

Hyde shook his head helplessly. There was no point in explaining at this time.

What's more, even though he tried his best to deny it, the damn thing is that he found that he did have a little, a little, insignificant, negligible affection for that doll.

This strange feeling made Hyde shudder.

To be honest, even he himself was shocked by the result.Maybe it was because the other party had saved him several times, or maybe it was because she had used a look similar to Williams, and even he himself couldn't understand the reason.

But one thing is for sure, if Straw found out that he had a similar hobby to Professor He Roger and used the Ascension Ritual for a puppet, his father would probably dismantle him into a pile of bones.

"That's another matter."

A voice spoke to itself in Hyde's consciousness,

"The shadow disappeared to help you undo the Wendigo curse. It would be dishonoring to Beluce's honor to hold back at such a time."

Although all kinds of strange thoughts appeared for a moment, Hyde replied calmly:

"What's the use of being anxious? It can be seen from your faces that this is not a problem that can be solved in three or two days. Our situation is very bad. Only by calming down can we help her."

"But now that we've talked about it, let me ask, where is that guy?"

Ling took out a scroll of paintings from Ella's backpack, but had no intention of opening it.

"You'll know right away."

There was a knock on the door, and before he knew it, Ling had already revoked the silent barrier that wrapped the house.

"Mr. Beluce, Ms. Mephister, Head Lucien and representatives of the diplomatic missions hope to come in and have a talk."

It was the voice of the accompanying maid.

"come in."

As the wooden door was pushed open, the two representatives of the alliance, Val Farmini from the Albion Brotherhood, and Fidili and Victoria, who were bloody, entered the room one after another.

"How is Miss Williams doing?"

Lucien asked, but to be honest, his magical ability was of no use at this time.

Schiff has a certain attainment in white magic. The moment he noticed Ella, the second son of the Mephisto family frowned.

Although the young girl's appearance hasn't changed much, her mental body and magic power appear to be very disordered under the spiritual vision.This is not just a matter of knowing the pollution. Ella's spirit itself has been induced by the pollution, resulting in some unknown tendency of alienation.

They are only suppressed by some kind of force, so that the girl's condition will not continue to deteriorate, but it is unrealistic to rely solely on Schiff or the accompanying witch doctor to treat this level of pollution.

"Sorry, this is beyond my ability."

Schiff shook his head, expressing helplessness.

"Is she going to lose control?"

Faminie covered her mouth exaggeratedly, showing grief, but there was almost no emotion in her eyes.

"No, not yet, I have a clue..."

Fitili said:

"Mrs. Nadasidi's crown is a sacred object of foul blood. If it is there, I think Ella's condition will be stable for the time being."

"The filthy blood possesses more than one holy object. I remember that they have a holy object that can perfectly solve the pollution. As long as you arrive at Enoch City, you can use the temporary loan of the holy object as one of the conditions."

"This is good news, but what about Miss Shadow, you haven't found her yet, have you?"

Lucien asked.Shadow can be regarded as one of the representatives of the alliance. From his standpoint, this is also one of the members that cannot be given up.But given the current situation, it is impossible for them to split the mission into two parts. If the team, which already has less than [-] members, is split into two again, it may bring about more unexpected changes.

"This is not a problem."

Ling spread out the picture drawn by Ira,

"According to the clues we got, the disappearance of the shadow may be related to Enoch. We must go to that place no matter what."

Although things became logical because of this, Lucien's face still unconsciously became ugly.

"Did the blood do it? If Enoch really has malicious intentions towards us, then the next action may become very dangerous. I can't even guarantee the safety of all members."

Before Feitili could speak, Ling tugged at the corner of her clothes from behind.Although she had explained the matter, the current situation made it not bad for Lucien to be wary of Enoch, at least it was more beneficial than disclosing Ella's relationship with the incident.
