"Ah ~ don't!"

In the quiet bedroom, Celine, who was already asleep, suddenly let out a dreamlike low cry. This movement alarmed Link, who was sitting at the desk in the bedroom studying the magic book of time.

He took the paperweight to press the pages of the book, and slightly dimmed the brightness of some magic lamps. He walked to the side of the big bed, but saw that Celine was still sleeping, but she didn't seem to be sleeping peacefully. He frowns slightly from time to time, a little sweat is still on his smooth forehead, and his hands are exposed outside the quilt, clenched tightly.

'It's a nightmare again. Link sighed slightly in his heart. He sat on the edge of the bed, gently grabbed Celine's hand, and held it like that.

This is a side effect of Celine's powerful prophecy talent. Now, her power is about to break through level 9, and her ability to predict the future is getting stronger and stronger, but she has not fully mastered this strange power. But now that the situation in the mainland is complicated, she will have some prophetic nightmares from time to time.

These nightmares indicate that there will be dangers in the future, but this does not need to be predicted. The core magicians of Field know that the big ship Field has now sailed into the stormy sea.

Field's high-level magicians all have a sense of urgency in their hearts and are always ready to fight.

Usually, as soon as Link sat next to Celine and held her hand, Celine would calm down after a while.

It was the same this time. After ten minutes of silence, Celine's brows eased, her breathing became slow and even, and she fell into a deep sleep again.

Link didn't walk away, he simply took off his coat, then sat on the back of the bed, and waved lightly to the desk, the magic book flew towards him silently.

He lit up a dim magic lamp by his side, and then leaned on the bed like this, continuing to read this extremely difficult and obscure time magic book.

The three pillars of the plane, space, time, and energy. He already has a lot of experience in space and energy, but time alone, although he has comprehended some mysteries, but generally speaking, he is still a beginner.

While concentrating on deducing a magic energy equation in the book, Celine who was sleeping next to her suddenly turned over. After a while, she reached out with a hand and put it on Link's waist. Celine's voice came: "Not yet sleep?"

Link closed the book and asked, "Did it wake you up?"

"No, I just woke up from a dream." Celine said lazily, she reached out and closed the magic book in Link's hand, then took it over and looked at the cover: "This magic book is very difficult. Is it? I think it’s been more than two months, but I only finished the first chapter?”

Link's brain was hurting from reading it. Seeing that the book was taken away, he didn't bother to continue reading. He stretched out his hand and rubbed his aching forehead, and said with a wry smile: "It's not very difficult, it's very, very difficult. I'm afraid I need to reach level 14 before I can study it more smoothly."

Link has a reason for saying this, because during the game, the magician acquired the first time-type legendary magic: Time Acceleration.

Before level 14, all magic of the player has nothing to do with time. The most difficult magic is space magic, and time magic is a hundred times more difficult than space. It involves various causal loops, logic matrices, space-time interference ripples, etc. The super-complex calculation made Link feel like his brain was starting to boil.

Seeing Link's tired face, Celine didn't persuade him to take a break, but changed the topic to a more relaxed area: "How is that snake man doing now?"

"Snakeman?" Link smiled: "The progress is going well, Wayans and the others have found a reliable way to control her, the only trouble is that the Spear of Victory is automatically protecting its owner, but the energy of this weapon always It is limited, and it is estimated that in another week, its power will be exhausted."

"That's not bad, but speaking of it, the dream I just had was related to this snake man, do you want to hear it?"

"you say."

Celine put the time magic book in her hand on the bedside cabinet, then sat up, leaned on Link's shoulder, and said: "The content of this dream is very vague, but it seems to carry a lot of meaning, anyway, it's scary and eccentric."

Link didn't dare to underestimate Celine's talent for prophecy, so he listened intently.

Celine closed her eyes and seemed to recall her dream again. After a while, she whispered: "In the dream, I saw my father... Since my demonic power was suppressed until now, I am still the first I dreamed of him for the first time. In this dream, I saw a figure coming towards Field from the direction of the sea. This person was very strange, and his body was filled with thick blood. When he was seen from a distance, he looked like a high elf. When he got closer, he saw another girl with goat horns on her head. The girl's face was very vague. After she arrived at Field Harbor, she seemed to see me, and I heard her say something to me, which is The words were very clear, as if they were real. She said: "Sister, father misses you very much." As soon as she finished speaking, her appearance suddenly changed into a man shrouded in black shadows. I don't know the appearance, but in my heart, this should be the appearance of Nosamas. He suddenly spread his wings, stretched out a huge claw, and grabbed me... "

Celine's dream sounded a little absurd, like an ordinary nightmare, but the aura hidden in it made Link feel a little surprised.

"Nosamas, High Elf, Blood Light, and calling your sister, this dream is a little scary... Otherwise, we will go see Elendor tomorrow, she is known as the daughter of destiny, she is good at dream analysis, she should be able to see Come up with something."

Speaking of Celine's sister, the first thing Link thinks of is Sarvini, but Sarvini should be in the plane of Agura now.

Calculated according to the speed of time, Saluwini has been in Agula for hundreds of years. Could it be that she now has the power to break the plane? Or did Nosamas find her, and the two sides began to unite

Each of these conjectures terrified him.

"Okay, I'll go then too. But it's late now, go to bed first, and take some rest today, don't be so tense." Celine pulled Link's arm slightly, trying to make him lie down.

Link could only let her go. After lying down, he relaxed and fell asleep in a daze.

Nothing to say all night.

The next day, Link went to check on Katyusha's situation. After confirming that everything was going well, he took Shilin to the Bluestone Island of the Job people.

This island was originally a deserted island, but after more than a year of uninterrupted construction by the Job people, it has taken on the appearance of a city.

After seeing the small island in the air from a distance, Link lowered his flight altitude, slowed down, used void walk all the way, and finally landed on the airship platform at the dock.

When the airship administrator on the platform saw Link, he hurried over to receive him. After Link reported his destination, a small airship was already arranged.

Link and Celine sat on it, the airship started, and drove all the way at low altitude. After about five minutes, they arrived at a sea cliff plateau east of Bluestone Island.

There is a small magic tower on the high ground, which is the residence of Elendor - the arc tower of fate.

Link and Celine walked over, and before knocking, the tower door opened. Behind the door stood a little Job of twelve or thirteen years old. She raised her big head and looked at Lin Ke with big emerald green eyes. Ke, with a high-pitched voice: "My lord, the prophet said that she has already prepared afternoon tea on the balcony, waiting for you to arrive."

Link and Celine glanced at each other, and walked into the magic tower one after the other, while the little Jober led the way bouncing in front, all the way to the lobby on the third floor, which was connected to a balcony, and Yilin Dole was standing by a round table, looking at them with a smile.

The two walked over, and Elendor invited: "Welcome, Lord Lord, Lady Lord."

Although Celine and Link have not held a wedding yet, everyone knows their relationship. Link means that after defeating the Legion of Destruction, a formal wedding will be held. This news is also public, so in this private occasion, still It's no problem for Lindor to call Mrs. Celine the lord.

After the three of them sat down, before Link could explain why he came, Elendor smiled and said, "Don't talk about it, just draw two cards."

With that said, Elendor took out her own destiny tarot cards and spread them out on the table: "My predictive power has basically merged with this deck, lord, it's the same as before, you think in your heart Ask the questions you ask, and it will tell you the answers."

Link nodded, meditating on the dream described by Celine in his mind, and stretched out his hand to draw two cards.

There are no outsiders here, so Link opened it directly.

But as soon as the deck was opened, all three of them were dumbfounded.

The surfaces of the two cards that Link drew were gray, without any patterns, let alone predictions. Looking carefully at the cards, I found that the decks on these two cards actually had patterns, but an indescribable force appeared on the surface, which distorted all the information about the decks.

Link felt this strange power, his heart suddenly moved, and he remembered a word in the time magic book: the fog of time!

The fog of time, when the future situation evolves very violently, the prediction technique may fail, and it is manifested as a fog of unknowability.

Looking at the fog, Link felt awe-inspiring. He felt that the situation this time might be different from the past, and it might be very dangerous.

"What's going on?" Celine asked.

Link also looked at Elendor, waiting for her to explain.

Elendor was also very surprised. She took the cards and gently stroked the patterns on the back of the two cards. She was already familiar with this deck of Tarot cards to the bone. Through the subtle differences in the patterns on the back, she could distinguish the faces of the cards. content.

But when she touched it, she was even more surprised, because when she tried to identify the group of cards, a sense of trance appeared in her mind unconsciously. As a result, she touched it for a long time, but she couldn't figure out what kind of card it was.

After a while, she finally spoke: "I'm afraid the content of this prediction is beyond the limit of my strength... Lord, you should just tell me the matter directly."
