"Yes!"
Xia De endured the surprise in his heart and stared at the stone box in his hand:
"In other words, the tomb robber I'm looking for actually stole the burial objects of the Edwards family. Although the low-level warlock knew that the bones were unusual, he was unable to discover what they were. So, through an introduction, he sold them to the Watson family in the Randall Valley who wanted to fight against Stone Oxenfurt."
The clues were completely connected, and the ideas for further investigation were divided into two.
On the one hand, although it is not known whether the first generation lord Clain Edwards knew what those finger bones were, since they were found in the tomb of the second generation's eldest daughter, they might also be found in the burial objects of Clain himself or even other Edwards. On the other hand, the tomb robbers who stole the burial objects might have things related to the skeleton of the angel of death in their hands, but they did not realize it.
Therefore, it becomes even more necessary to find those tomb robbers and ask them what happened when they entered here.
"You have a weird look on your face."
The brown-haired lady said, and Shade looked up at her, with a light in his eyes:
"Remember the tomb robbers I mentioned in the downtown area of Michaela Blast Furnace during the day?"
The pharmacist nodded:
"Of course I remember... these are the people?"
"Yes, this stone box once contained the things I encountered in other places. It seems that we must find the group of tomb robbers. I want to know what they encountered. We don't see the soul now, maybe they encountered it in the past."
After saying this, he realized that the angel's finger bone that had been taken away by priest Augustus was a burial object for the ancestors of the lady's family:
"Hmm... that thing..."
"It doesn't matter."
She shook her head at Xia De. Compared to the excited Xia De, she was very calm:
"If it's useful to you, then it belongs to you. Rather than lying here, it's better to put these things to good use. But even if someone else takes them away, I, the descendant of the Edwards family, must agree. I can give them, but others cannot take them on their own initiative... If you really find that group of tomb robbers, be sure to call me."
She clenched her fists. It was hard for Xia De to imagine what would happen to that gang of tomb robbers.
Although it was very rude, the pharmacist still opened the stone coffin, revealing the metal coffin inside. It was obvious that the previous group of tomb robbers could not find a way to open the coffin, so they directly destroyed the metal coffin, and the big hole melted out looked like it was burned by a fireball.
The pharmacist tried her best to repair the coffin, but there were still traces of damage. The pattern on the surface of the coffin was still a well-developed plant root system, but the density of the silver roots was far more exaggerated than the two coffins seen today.
There was a small skeleton lying in the coffin. Xia De and the pharmacist lady touched it one by one, but neither of them could cause any abnormal phenomenon. So they restored the coffin to its original position and prepared to leave.
"Go back and wait for my news. Your piece of mountain copper is also for a key. I thought the mountain copper was the most troublesome, but I didn't expect it to be the first one to get. I will be able to gather the rest of the materials soon. Next time we will get the next key."
As the pharmacist turned to close the door of the ossuary, she said to Shade:
"If everything goes well, I'll take you to other places on the island next time. Who knows, maybe we can find the pattern you mentioned."
Xia De naturally nodded in agreement, and the pharmacist confirmed that the door was locked. She was about to wave her hand to let the fireball fly into the distance to illuminate the way back, but suddenly she frowned, and with her right hand, two fireballs went out at the same time.
At the same time, Xia De also looked into the depths of the thick fog outside the small cemetery:
"There are people! Did we meet people again this time? There are more 'tourists' on this island than I thought."
Five or six figures were walking towards the pool from a distance. Because the fog was too thick, even though the other party had summoned a ball of light for illumination, Xia De and the pharmacist lady still could not see each other's faces clearly.
"Don't kill anyone this time."
Xia De warned, not forgetting the lesson from last time:
"Last time, you just asked a sensitive question, causing the other person's head to explode, and you were judged to have killed someone with your own hands. This means that this murder..."
His eyes suddenly widened, he made a gesture to keep quiet, and then quickly moved closer to the sorceress. The latter hurriedly stepped back, but saw the serious expression on Shade's face:
"Among those six people, there are twelve or thirteen rings."
"What?"
Shade stopped 1 meter away from the sorceress, and the pharmacist, who had received the reminder, also tried to look towards the thick fog. She didn't have such exaggerated perception as Shade, but as the team got closer, she also recognized a very recognizable face among them.
Of course, because this cemetery is in a folded space, Shade and the pharmacist lady can see each other, and even if there is a thirteenth-ring warlock in that team, he cannot sense them for the time being.
"'Mirror Man' Al Haken?!"
"The thirteen-ring sorcerer from the Mirror Society? How come this kind of sorcerer shows up at a time like this? It's not even the final battle yet."
"Now is not the time to worry about this kind of thing. Even if I recover my full strength, I can't beat him!"
This time, the panicked pharmacist finally made up her mind and approached Shade. As the distance between them became less than 1 meter, the badge on Shade's chest finally started to burn as if on fire.
At the same time, the witch's special spirit was clearly captured by Shade's perception. He turned his head to look at the pharmacist lady, who directly grabbed his wrist, as if she really made this move just because the situation was urgent.
Her heart was filled with ecstasy at this moment, and a voice that Xia De could not hear whispered in her ear:
"Yes, Megan, the witch's curse was indeed not triggered."
Most likely a male, he entered within 1m and there was no sign of the curse being triggered.
Even in the dark, Xia De could clearly see her beautiful face. That face was trying hard to suppress the conflicting emotions of panic caused by the appearance of the thirteenth ring and the surprise caused by the proof of Xia De's specialness:
"We must hide. It's too late to leave now. Fortunately, the fog can interfere with our perception. I have a potion here..."
"I have my own way."
Xia De shook his head quickly:
"The question is what do you do?"
"You have a way to deal with the Six Rings, so why can't I have one?"
The sorceress asked back, releasing Shade's wrist and taking a quick look at her palm:
"If you are sure that you are okay, we will split up and hide. Remember, if we can't meet up, we will meet up at the dock... Damn, I don't know where they landed from. Are my two followers okay..."
As she spoke, she hooked her finger towards Xia De, and the golden line swayed, representing the connection between the two.
She saw Shade quickly retreat to the middle of the stone statues in the cemetery, and as he covered his face with his hands, petrified wings extended from behind him, and then wrapped around most of his body. Thus, the statue of the weeping angel with his face covered stood in the middle of the stone statues, looking so harmonious.
"No problem, you hid perfectly. And then there's me, thanks to the Duke..."
The sorceress whispered something, then took out a brown potion with the words "white cat" from her small bag. She drank the potion in one gulp, and then in just a few seconds, she turned into a black and white kitten.
Before the cat ran into the fog, Shade, who had turned into stone, recovered. He took off his coat and covered the witch's clothes, and paid a high price to turn all the items, including the potion, into toys - fortunately, the only relic on her was a golden earring.
Shade put away the toys and walked back to the statues. The black and white kitten bit the earring that could not be turned into a toy, cast a spell in the form of a cat to erase the traces on the ground, looked back at the angel statue, and hurriedly ran into the fog.
Soon, footsteps were heard and the strangers officially entered the cemetery.
Although Xia De covered his face, it did not hinder his perception. He could know that the Mirror Association came to the lake with a clear goal, and then moved according to the method he and the pharmacist had just used, thus opening the entrance to the folded space.
The thirteen-ring warlock was the first to enter the cemetery. In the hazy fog, his appearance gradually became clearer.
The "Mirror Man" looked to be in his thirties, a bit short for an adult man, about the same height as Dorothy. He wore a light grey coat and had a small reflective mirror hanging from his right ear as an earring, which looked particularly strange.
Behind him, except for the man who escaped in the fog last time, there were four people whom Xia De didn't recognize. But among the four people, there were two identical twins, both of whom had eight rings, and one was blind in the left eye and the other in the right eye:
"Hmm... This wouldn't be what the doctor mentioned..."
The twins guided the thirteenth-ring sorcerer "Mirror Man" into the ossuary. When the six of them passed through the cemetery, although they all glanced at the stone statues displayed in the cemetery, and one of them even released the magic of detection, but even the thirteenth-ring sorcerer could not discover the peculiarity of the stone statue that Shad had mimicked due to the obstruction of the fog.
The group was very cautious, and the sound-silencing magic was everywhere around them, so Shade couldn't hear what they were saying. He could only "see" the twin men and the short thirteenth ring warlock enter the ossuary, and soon they walked out with frowns on their faces, apparently not finding what they came here to find.
However, the group did not leave immediately, but started talking in the cemetery. The thick fog also hindered Shade's perception, and he could not know the content of the conversation through the changes of their lips. The conversation lasted for half a minute, and then the thirteenth ring warlock suddenly raised his hand to signal everyone to stop.
White mist lingered in the dark night, and there seemed to be no life in the calm night. The thirteen-ring warlock looked around cautiously with his brown eyes, and after passing by the statue of Shade's mimicry again, he looked at the ground under his feet.
