"The whereabouts of that adult is beyond my knowledge."

"Dear guest, please take a short rest and change your clothes before meeting with our Lord..."

"Please—"

Facing Ella's eagerness, the latter just continued to repeat what he had just said.

"Dear guest, please take a short rest and change your clothes before meeting with our Lord..."

Although she was very concerned about the envoy and the teacher, the puppet maid in front of her was obviously unwilling to communicate more.

Ella took a deep breath and entered the dragon carriage hall.Follow the guidance of the puppet maids into the huge bathhouse like a natural lake.

She raised her head, and the headless goddess statues on both sides of the bath poured a steady stream of hot water into the bath. Above it was a colorful stained glass, which depicted two princes facing each other with swords, surrounded by entanglement. angels and demons.

The story dictated by the envoy once again surfaced in Ella's memory:

[In a certain country, two princes look so similar that even the queen can't tell the difference.On the night before the eldest son ascended the throne, civil strife broke out in the palace, and a prince came out of the blood-stained room and took the throne.Another prince was imprisoned in an underground prison for rebellion. 】

[But no one knows who the person who walked out of the room that night was. 】

[Remember, this is just a meaningless story, meaningless, so don't retell it, don't even think about it]

Nodens' identity is questionable...

Ella quickly lowered her eyes and stopped looking directly at the contents of the stained glass. This is knowledge involving the secrets of the gods, and it contains unimaginable pollution.

Maybe only by returning to the material world... No, only in a place where she can avoid the eyes of gods can she look directly at this memory.

Ayla suddenly thought of what she had seen in the historical images—Sibyl's alchemy room was such a place.

Chapter 21 Broken Moon

"The treasure house of Sibylla..."

In the historical images, there is indeed a certain arrangement that can isolate the sight of great beings.But Ella remembered that most of the things there had been moved back to Kraft. If she wanted to borrow the layout of the treasure house, she still had to face the principal after all.

This was like a bell urging fate to advance. No matter how she tried to avoid this result, she still had to fight the old man.

Putting aside the messy thoughts, Ella temporarily sealed this memory through hints. She had completely forgotten the story from the moment she stepped out of the bath, and would never recall it until a certain condition was triggered.

The off-white flames flickered on the girl's skin, instantly evaporating the moisture sticking to her body.

The puppet maid has sent over the prepared dress, which is a gorgeous long dress including a crown, decorated with a lot of tassels and metal ornaments.It is fixed with two shoulder buckles as a whole, hanging from the neck to the ground, which has an old classic style.

Ella instinctively wanted to find her original clothes, but was told that she needed to follow proper etiquette when meeting the gods.

A circle of ripples spread rapidly on the water surface, and there was a slight vibration in the palace. Ella had the experience of riding a dragon carriage once, and knew that this was a normal reaction when landing.

Under the guidance of the puppet maid, she left the dragon chariot and set foot on the pale barren ground of the moon.Ayla's eyes quickly scanned the surroundings and the tall temple in front of her, but the figure of the envoy still did not appear.

Suppressing the uneasiness in her heart, Ella stepped into the stone gate tens of meters high.

Among the forest of stone pillars as thick as three people's arms, there are a lot of fine and soft silver gravel piled up. They spread all the way to the end of the dark hall, supporting a majestic jet-black throne.

The skinny old man who didn't fit in with the surroundings sat obliquely on the tall stone god seat, holding his chin with one hand, and his two short thin legs couldn't even reach the ground.

Faced with such a ridiculous scene, Ella did not dare to relax at all.

That was the only true god she knew who still walked the earth.He is the omnipotent Father, the eternal King of the Abyss, and the Creator Nodens who dwells on the moon!

Recalling the titles she had used before, Ella saluted respectfully:

"Ella Williams, the court mage of the Kingdom of Snow, has met the master of the dreamland, the great Mr. Nodens."

The face of the old man is blurred, but anyone who is in front of him will be attracted by a pair of deep eyes like the abyss of the star sea.

There is now an inexplicable smile in His eyes:

"It's a real oddity, a really interesting oddity."

This attitude made Ella feel a little inexplicable, but her rationality prevented her from interrupting the old man.

"You are not a resident of Dreamland, but you came here again with my invitation letter, which broke the rules that have lasted for thousands of years."

"Distinguished guest who travels back and forth between time and space, every time you appear, the flow of karma and fate has been shifted-although this change is insignificant, it is not reasonable."

"It can be seen that you have a lot of questions. As a reward for your second arrival here, in addition to allowing you to return to the material world, I can also answer three additional questions for you."

Ella was startled, although instinctively felt something was wrong, but this was an unexpected huge gain, a precious gift that could not be refused!

For any wizard, this opportunity is enough to make them throw everything away.Knowledge bestowed by the gods, which could mean untold wealth, unrivaled power or even eternal life!

But a sense of disobedience from deep in her memory made Ella calm down. She organized her words and selected a few questions that most urgently needed answers.

"Thank you very much, the great Mr. Nodens."

"A friend of mine disappeared due to an attack by creatures from different spaces. I want to know her whereabouts."

The old man's expression suddenly became a little sad,

"That's the dark side of the madman who once had the name of a saint. He fell into madness in order to collect the bones and blood of the past. In the depths of the wilderness basin, kill it and you will be able to find your friends."

The statement of the god made Ella silent for a while. She also had some guesses about this result, but it was finally confirmed today.

So she asked the second question.

"The current material world is overlapping with other different spaces. I want to know what this means?"

Nodens's smile became stronger, and this kind of gaze made Ella feel great pressure, almost unable to move.

"He returns with the hymn, the stars overlap the world, and all mysteries will awaken. And you mortals will face the tide, although this time you have not yet built an ark."

"last question."

wave......?Ella had heard the word from Sibylah before, but now she didn't have time to think about its meaning.

Ella raised her head to meet those purple-black eyes as deep as a sea of ​​stars, took a deep breath, and asked word by word:

"Can my teacher, Howard Yousef, return to the physical world?"

She tensed up uneasily, waiting for the final verdict.But the gods remained silent for too long.

After a long time, the old man chuckled and said:

"I cannot answer this question, but the sentence itself is part of the answer. In compensation I will tell you another thing."

"In the soil of the void, the black mother is buried. She is the omniscient who sees the darkness, the first witch who knows everything. Even if she loses her life and is deprived of authority, her existence will still affect the void. The rising of the Lord—remember, His name is Lilith."

For a moment, Ella seemed to have fallen into a cold ice cave, completely frozen by the bone-piercing chill.

After a while, Ayla left the temple and used the passage at the back to reach the "tomb" of the dreamland, which is also the only way to leave this world.

-

Not long after Ella disappeared, a brilliant figure appeared in front of the Moonlight Temple. His pairs of wings spread out, and the halo expanded and almost lit up the entire night sky!

Screaming, the gigantic night-gaunt broke free from its chains, dragging the rickety palace flopping away from the moon.

The silver gravel on the ground melted in pieces under the golden flames, flowing and converging on the ground like flowing gold. The steps and stone pillars in front of the temple turned into powder under the high temperature and surging power, and the whole celestial body trembled and moaned!

Faced with such power and influence, the old man still did not leave his throne, with a relaxed expression as if he was looking down on the children's farce.

"I never thought that you could hide so much humanity from my eyes. I thought that after helping that girl for the last time, you would be promoted."

"But I don't understand why you challenge me at this time? After tonight, your hidden humanity will be completely burned out. Isn't it a pity according to human thinking?"

"and--"

Having said that, he leaned forward slightly.

"Dear Howard, do you think you can defeat me like this?"

Under his gaze, the majestic and desolate pillars of the temple and the pale surface of the moon began to look unreal and comical.The stone pillars have softened, like long, light and round balloons blown up by a circus clown, and the pale ground of the moon is like innocent and simple lines drawn by a childish brush.

The stars and moonlight turn into swirling circles, and the majestic envoy also turns into a stick figure with a few ridiculous wings in this weird picture.

The light and heat enough to turmoil the celestial bodies have no meaning in this playful but eerie picture. They are just orange or red paints, dyeing a small area of ​​​​the canvas with their colors.

But the stick figure with gray-green eyes suddenly spoke, his serious expression seemed out of place in this childlike picture.

"Of course not, so I'm not alone."

At this time, the end of the canvas was suddenly dripped with a few drops of black ink, which seemed to be blurred by water and spread on the canvas into large dirty colors.

The old man narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling a little irritated for the first time.

The grand and desolate bell rang at the end of the night, and a darkness darker than the night quickly swept across the night sky, covering the stars in the sky and the lights on the ground at the same time!

"Boom, boom—"

The bell sounded from far to near, and the corners of the canvas were quickly filled with black ink!The funny stick figure shattered suddenly, and the shadow that gradually covered the moon was a black cloak tens of thousands of meters wide and countless terrifying night nightmares with smooth skin like whales and no facial features!

"You invited the bell ringer... so you know more than I thought."

The old man sat upright on the throne, looking at the envoy standing in front of the hall with a half-smile.

"But why did you choose this time to take action?"

The flames surrounding the envoy gradually dissipated, and he stretched out his hand into the void, pressing a black bowler hat on his head.

The pure white armor was dyed black at some point, and the hem of the long windbreaker swayed in the wind.

"My students have grown up and no longer need my protection."

"If you continue to sit on the god's seat, the Snow Country will inevitably lead to another doomsday. It is the executor's duty to stop you, even in the Dreamland."

"No matter what happens, you will fall into a deep sleep. When you wake up again, the world will have lasted for a thousand years or more-this is my promise to Ella."

The man pulled out the rusty sword from his waist and pointed it at the old man on the throne.

"As for the last thing left, it's just a little personal matter. I want to see if the gods really can't be killed. What do you think...Nia."

The old man's smile gradually curved into a pleasant, yet malicious angle.

"Regardless of how it ends, you'll quickly learn that it's all meaningless."
