Yes, even after more than four hundred years, the name has been blurred, but the scene at that time is still vivid in my mind.
The blue-haired witch knelt down on one knee in front of the three seats of the federation, solemnly took over the robe and scepter symbolizing a high-ranking person, and accepted the blessing from the head of the quest.
No. 76 deeply remembered the posture when she turned and raised her scepter to the bottom of the ceremony—as the youngest high-ranking witch born in the Taquila era, her proud and confident expression was like a brand. in the hearts of all bystanders.
At that time, No. 76 was only a member of the garrison, an original battle witch. At that time, looking at the high-spirited young junior, she only had infinite envy and a trace of inferiority in her heart.
It turns out that this witch is Agatha.
Fragments of memories covered in dust instantly reappeared in my mind.
She even remembered that the other party violated the Quest Society's principle of never hiring mortals because of some outrageous actions, and was excluded from the core research circle.
And Agatha did not repent in the slightest, and went straight to build her own research tower outside Taquila City.
It is precisely because of her status and identity that no one has stopped this behavior. If the Primordial Witch dared to openly confront the Quest Club, she would probably be dispatched to the front line of battle with a paper order until she became one of the dead in the bloody defensive battle. member.
At that time, No. 76 was still quite dissatisfied, thinking that under the current situation of the enemy, she should not make such a move. Said, lost most of the resources and foundation to explore the mysteries of the magic stone. The combination of the two is the loss of the holy city of Taquila.
But now, all dissatisfaction has long since disappeared with the demise of the Federation, more than 400 years have passed, and now all that is left in her heart is joy... and incredible surprise.
The joy is that she was able to meet a Taquila witch here again.
Surprisingly, how did this Taquila witch survive until now
There is no doubt that Agatha still maintains the body of a witch, and even her appearance and age seem to stay in that era, and there is not even a trace of old age!
The bodies of the other survivors have long since been turned into bones, and only the souls have been preserved through special methods.
No. 76 tried his best to restrain the urge to stop her immediately, and watched her leave without moving. He didn't take a deep breath until the gate of the courtyard was closed again.
She already knew what to do next.
…
"What, did you find something wrong?" When it was getting late and the howling cold wind became cold again, Nightingale noticed that Sylvie's expression changed a little.
"No. 76 left the Diplomatic Building and jumped out of the second-floor corridor window." The latter replied.
"Oh?" Nightingale raised her eyebrows, "Aren't those windows sealed with iron railings?"
"It's probably rusted, and the whole window frame fell off after a shake." Sylvie stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking down at the city that was slowly disappearing into the darkness, "She turned over the wall, but the guards at the door didn't notice it. movement."
"But we still found out," Nightingale couldn't help raising the corners of her mouth, "She really has a problem!"
Since Roland's safety was more important, she called Sylvie to monitor the group's visit directly in the castle office.
No visions were observed in the morning, everything was normal. After the wolfheart witches had their lunch, No. 76 suddenly showed an uncomfortable appearance. Judging from the mouth shape of the conversation, it seemed that he was tired from sleepless nights. In the end, under the consolation of everyone, she put her clothes on the bed in the bedroom and directly missed the visit in the afternoon.
Nightingale originally thought that the day would be spent peacefully, but she did not expect that as dusk approached, she had an unexpected new move.
"You really guessed it," Roland closed the book with great interest, "but an ordinary person can escape your lie detection, which is considered a genius."
Nightingale coughed twice, "When I catch her, I'll figure out how she did it sooner or later."
"Number 76 is moving south along the side street outside the castle district, wait... she stopped by the street," Sylvie went on to report, "Looks like... waiting for someone?"
"There is no magic power, nor does he carry any weapons, either he came for information, or he has colluded with other people and tried to plan a major event," Nightingale analyzed with high fighting spirit, "If it is the former, it should be hidden for a longer time. One point is right, so I can't wait, maybe I will start tonight."
"Do it? Against whom?" Sylvie asked.
"Uh... Well, I'll find out later."
Half an hour later, Sylvie's voice suddenly froze, "Hey, she's moving again... The goal seems to be... Oops, isn't that Agatha?"
"It's the factory shift time, so it's normal for her to be here..." Nightingale frowned, "But Agatha is a battle witch, and she doesn't have the Stone of God's Retaliation on her body. Are you sure that No. 76 is aimed at Did she go?"
"Agatha has done it! No... how is this possible!" Sylvie exclaimed in disbelief, "There is a divine stone reaction on the other party!"
This news changed Nightingale and Roland's expressions!
"nightingale!"
"I'll rush over now," Roland said before nightingale escaped into the mist, "Silvy, protect your majesty for me!"
…
Agatha's hands stopped in mid-air, her heart sank suddenly.
This road is a small street leading to the Castle District, and generally few townspeople will pass here, especially at dusk. When she noticed someone approaching her from behind, she turned around without hesitation and summoned the ice, which directly froze the other's feet.
However, the ice that appeared out of thin air lasted only a breath and then disappeared in a blink of an eye, as if it had never existed.
This is... the Stone of God's Retribution
No, if it was a divine stone, it would be impossible for Frost to get close to her.
The magic power was clearly condensed into icicles just now, and then dissipated into nothingness.
how can that be
But Agatha understood that now was not the time to dig deeper.
After following this secluded street, he has the ability to dissolve magic power, obviously he came prepared. Just when she was ready to take the opponent's attack hard, the action of the incoming person left her stunned.
I saw the follower raised his elbows flat, his fingers crossed on his chest, and he bent down deeply towards her.
She hadn't seen this kind of etiquette for a long time.
That was still the standard etiquette used by members of the Federation when they met their superiors in the Taquila era.
"You are..." Agatha couldn't help but asked.
"Salute to you, the youngest high-level awakener, Lord Agatha," the other party said slowly, "Can we find a place to talk?"
