Chapter 15: The Age of the Buried

Evan shook his head bitterly, his head still in a mushy state, and when he struggled to get up, he would still sway like a hangover drunkard. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Here...... Where the hell is it? I'm not ......."

This was a very unusual situation, and Evan remembered that after Charlotte performed a magic ritual, he was swept into a strange space that repeats time and space, and that was why he suddenly appeared in this castle. He touched the trinkets that hung around his neck and tucked away in his clothes, and then he tried to get up and check his surroundings.

Her sister, Vivien Leigh, was lying on the cold floor, frowning slightly, and then opened her eyes in a daze.

"Hey, where is this? Aren't you still playing Dragon Quest with your brothers in the Rose Garden? Just repeating that game every once in a while, no matter how fun it is, it's terrible!"

She pursed her mouth and let out a whisper of grumbling, only to notice that Evan was standing beside her with a pale face. The little princess seemed to have found her backbone, and hugged her brother who reassured her.

"Ah......h That game has been repeated at least dozens of times, and it makes me almost vomit, and I don't want to play that game again in my life!"

"I don't think it was a dream...... In fact, I also dreamed of my mother and that damn fat pig, and it was disgusting......"

Claire's cold voice came from the corner, and he seemed to have come to his senses, now leaning against the wall, and in a state of desperation, pressing his fingers to his brow. As he awoke, Edie, Cynthia, and Cecilia soon came to their senses, and they exchanged what they had heard and seen, and immediately realized that the so-called repetitive dreams were not so simple.

"By the way, what about Charlotte? Have any of you seen Charlotte?"

After a brief exchange, Evan suddenly asked his friends, and of course, none of them saw Charlotte, who was missing.

"Could it be that he used a magic ritual to make us have a weird dream, huh, bastard Charlotte, I'm going to have to kick him a few times to see him!"

Vivien Leigh thought of Charlotte's strange magical ritual in the Chamber of Secrets, and immediately wondered if it was another nasty prank by Charlotte.

"No, I don't think so. Think about it, how could a warrior who couldn't do magic influence so many people with a magical ritual. Anyway, let's go out and check the situation first, and it seems that we are back to reality. ”

Evan's words quickly won everyone's approval, they were not like Charlotte who had the protection of the Book of Etroac, they had just experienced the endless corridor of time and space, they were already emaciated, and now they just wanted to lie on the soft puff bed to relieve their headache and exhaustion. Evan pushed the door open first, and the group rushed out after him, only to notice that something seemed wrong.

Through the thick stone walls, you can hear the voices of people outside the castle, as if some riot was going on outside, and you can faintly hear the sound of the sword handing. Evan suppressed the anxiety in his heart, he led the staggering few people to the castle hall in his memory, when passing by the corner of the corridor, the castle seemed to have been hit by some behemoth, and suddenly there was a violent shaking sensation.

As soon as they came out of their respective corridors, several of them fell to the ground, and when they looked up again, they realized that they had been surrounded by heavily armed guards.

At the head of the pack is a knight in full body armor, a knight with an aura of steel, and the crest of the Clayderman family engraved on his left chest. There is no doubt that he is the exclusive knight of the Clayderman family. At the moment, however, the knight did not seem very friendly, and he gave orders to the guards as if he did not know Evan and Vivien Leigh.

"How can there be a few imps here? Could it be the witch's spies? You escort them to the dungeon at once, and don't let anything go wrong at the critical moment!"

The wolf-like guards immediately stepped forward with great vigour, and controlled all the children with just one look. Before Evan could react, Vivien Leigh, whose hands were twisted behind her back, had already let out an angry rebuke like a fried cat. Her delicate face flushed, and she looked as cute as a little lioness.

"Bastard, who gave you the audacity to be rude to me Vivien Leigh Clayderman! You want to rebel! I am the daughter of the Grand Duke of Erossa, the son of Claudine, the king of knights!"

Ignoring the pain of her hands twisted behind her back, she kept kicking at the knight in front of her like an angry lioness. Of course, her little short legs couldn't reach the knight who was a meter away. But the latter, because of Vivien Leigh's unexpected words, waved his hand and stopped the very rough movements of his subordinates.

"Archduke Erosa? What is that? But you say you are the son of your master? I don't remember when Lord Claudio got married. ”

The knight's shocking words made Evan forget to resist, and he looked fixedly at the knight in front of him covered in armor, as if muttering.

"You say that Claudien's ancestors are not married? I ask you, what year is it?"

"I really don't know where a few idiots came out, if you count by the outbreak time of the Annihilation Crisis, to be precise, it should be the year 294 of the Fourth Age. Got it, little ghosts. ”

In the year 294 of the Fourth Age?Crisis of Annihilation?What is going on?

It is worth mentioning that the world of Stee is divided by an event that affects the multiverse pattern. Evan and Charlotte were born in 3447 A.D., and it stands to reason that the Fourth and Third Ages were divided by the end of the War of Annihilation. If the history books are not mistaken, then why did this knight say that the Crisis of Annihilation took place in the Fourth Age?

If Evan's historiography is correct, the Annihilation Crisis should have erupted at the end of the Second Age and the beginning of the Third Age, but what this knight told him was completely different from what was written in the history books!

Did Evan remember wrong? Or ...... Is there a deliberately buried Third Age in the real space-time?

Like Charlotte, Evan is in a state of confusion where there are not enough brain cells.

"Which of you will tell me what the hell is going on?Ah, by the way, Charlotte, a descendant of the Clayderman family, would like to extend my sincerest apologies to the noble Duke of Icewind Castle!"

In Sylvia's room on the other side, Charlotte finally recovered from her weak state and couldn't wait to ask a few people. As if he suddenly remembered the etiquette he had abandoned for many years, he solemnly bowed slightly to the girl in front of him. Charlotte's dislike of etiquette does not mean that he is a fool, the three masters and servants in front of him are all legends, and he will continue to die unless he is tired of being crooked.

In fact, when he saw the maid mage who had not been seen for a long time, he was slowly relieved while he was worried. There is no better news than meeting relatively familiar people in an unfamiliar environment.

The puppet girl Sylvia sat back in her chair, her face paralyzed again, and she didn't seem to answer Charlotte's interest at all. Instead, Dinah glared at Charlotte fiercely, and although her tone was not good, she finally introduced him to the whole story.

"It's all to blame for a stupid little ghost, casually performing magic rituals, causing Dinah and her sister to be involved in strange root magic, if it weren't for the master's rescue, Dinah and her sister would have become dead corpses that can't do anything!"

"I know this, but what about suddenly going back to 3,000 years ago?"

"Stupid abyssal maggots, don't you understand? in fact we have not escaped this magic at all, but the master has pulled us out of our respective corridors to the corridors to which our masters belong alone. ”

"That's right, that's right! Thanks to a certain little wolf dog, the original plan to destroy the magic circle with the master and save the master has become a state of being wiped out, Dinah really wants to turn a certain bastard into a wolf dog, and then barbecue and swallow it!"

I see, speaking of which, Charlotte finally understood what was going on.

In short, the Grand Duke of Icewind Castle was trapped in the Endless Corridor for some reason, so the two sisters, Dema and Dinah, were invited by Lady Rebecca to destroy the circle and rescue Sylvia. But because he didn't trust the two legendary mages and performed magic rituals on his own, he swept everyone into the endless space-time corridor. In the end, Sylvia unleashed her power and summoned all the people involved in the critical situation of their respective corridors to her own corridors, which led to tonight's situation.

Thinking of this, even Charlotte, who was extremely thick-skinned, blushed in amazement.

But wait, it's still weird, isn't it?!If the Endless Time and Space Corridor will make people fall into the continuous cycle of time and space in the most memorable part of their memory, then why is the Sylvia Corridor in the period of the Annihilation War, is it ...... He looked at Sylvia dumbfounded, and spat out the speculation in his mind.

"Your cloister is in the time of the war of annihilation, are you, ...... you?"

"That's right, Dinah's master is a legendary mage who became famous during the Annihilation War, and one of the three saints of annihilation in fairy tales!"

The mysterious Duke of Icewind Castle is actually one of the Three Saints of Annihilation, an old witch who has lived for at least three thousand years!

However, judging from the delicate beauty in front of her, which looks like a 16-year-old girl, you can't tell that she is a legendary figure who has lived for more than 3,000 years. Ah, yes! Combined with her own experience in the cloister, it seems that this appearance must only be the best time in her memory! Maybe in reality she is already a rickety old woman with lost teeth, shriveled mouth, wrinkled skin, and staggering walking, and can only survive on liquid objects.

As soon as the image in fantasy was compared with the breathtaking girl in front of her, Charlotte had to sigh at the cruelty of time, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but snicker.

The delicate puppet girl frowned imperceptibly, and Charlotte immediately felt a heavy pressure crush her to the ground, and even the bones in her body began to creak.

"I always feel like you're thinking something rude. ”

"Woo wow! Sister sister! Did you see it, the master seemed to frown just now, this is a miracle, big news! It's going to make people crazy when you say it!"

"Shut up Dinah, serve me well!"

"Spare your life, great Lord Sylvia!"

It was Charlotte, who was oppressed by the invisible force, who was screaming, because his outstretched hand on the ground like a drowning person was so embarrassing that the puppet girl couldn't help but pull the corners of her mouth. Then, she quickly touched her delicate cherry lips in confusion.
