Chapter 5: The Flipped World Line

"I see, if that's the case, then I'll accompany you ¥&@#*......"

What, what?

Charlotte looked at Claire, who was slurring words in front of her, and in his eyes, the whole world began to turn upside down and become confused. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The retina became blurry, and the walls on either side sped at a dizzying speed like a mosaic. In the spell laboratory behind him, the scattered glass shards on the ground were pieced together into a complete glass test tube, which seemed to be inhabited by the demon god of the storm, and the gray smoke poured into the bottle like a movie special effect.

Dizzy and dizzy.

Charlotte held back the dizziness of her mind and the discomfort in her stomach, forcing herself to feel all the changes with her thoughts.

That's right, this isn't the first time such a change has occurred, and in the past five days, the space-time reset ability has gone berserk as if it were out of control. As Charlotte said to Elle, counting this time, this is the fourth time that the plane has begun to flip without warning.

This is also the reason why Charlotte has long known that she will accept the two loli named Vivian and Lolita as apprentices at this moment.

It's different from before. Since Charlotte's level has become higher and higher, and her thoughts have become stronger and stronger, the changes that originally occurred in a trance have gradually become able to be perceived with thoughts. Charlotte calmed down and carefully experienced the process of reversing the world line, from which he wanted to analyze the reasons and principles of the space-time reset.

No aspiring mage with roots would tolerate changes that he could not grasp, and Charlotte was no different. This time, however, he failed.

Aside from the nausea and dizziness, he couldn't parse the principles and changes at all.

When it was all over, Charlotte staggered off the quilt with her head covered. Judging by the morning star twinkling in the sky outside the glass window, it was about 5 a.m., and because Icewind Castle was located in the far north of the continent, it was unusually late in the morning, even on a summer day.

He looked at the calendar on the khaki bedside table by the faint starlight, where the time of day was clearly displayed, July 3, 3467 A.D.

"Well, if you count my habit of flipping through the calendar the next morning, that means ......"

He turned the page of the calendar, and there was a new date—July 4, 3467 A.D.

It's very strange!

He clearly remembered that the first time reset also happened on July 7, and the time point of the reset was in the early morning of July 2. Since then, the timing of each space-time reset has been going back until today, when the calendar flips through to July 4th.

As before, the timing of the space-time reset is moving backwards. But why did the space-time reset ability suddenly go berserk? If you think about it, it seems that the space-time reset failed when I was a child. And over the years, even if he wanted to take the initiative to use this ability to obtain benefits, the space-time reset did not take effect as he wished.

So, here's the problem. What are the prerequisites for the space-time reset to be activated? Could it be that there is something in the underworld that has been observing its every move? Or is it ......

Charlotte had a vague idea, and he looked at the small pink painted cot next to him, filled with all kinds of toys, where Elle was drooling in her dreams while making a strange laugh. Charlotte thought about it for a moment, and then stepped forward without hesitation to perform the cheeky magic skill.

"Wow, Charlotte, what the hell are you bastards trying to do, huh, where is this? Am I not in the hallway in front of the lab?"

Ahh

Charlotte clutched her forehead and put on a pained expression. He struck Elle's head with a knife that was not light or heavy, and said with a serious expression.

"Don't sell cuteness there, you stupid guy. Get up and get to work, this time we have to get back to Erosa as soon as possible!"

"Oh! Why! Elle is waiting for Vivien and Lolita's crepes in a few days!"

Whew-patience! Patience! In the face of this situation, I can only sigh!

"You idiot, haven't you realized the reason for this plane reset? Vivien Leigh will die of a murder in three days, which means that we have less than three days left! As for Vivien and Lolita, don't worry, I'll send someone to the apprenticeship academy later. Yours, you know?"

Elle shook her head with a look of cuteness as Charlotte had expected.

Ahh

"Forget it, you don't care about anything, just follow me!" Andersdown?"

She had long been accustomed to Charlotte's strange words from time to time, and this time, Elle nodded abruptly.

After that, Charlotte placed the Thinker's Skull in her space bag and carefully counted the various magical items inside. He then instructed the mages on duty at the Tower of the Supreme to summon Vivien and Lolita, and when everything was in order, he walked to the tenth floor of the Tower, where the first seat of Icewind Castle lived, the legendary maids named Dema and Dinah.

If you want to get to Lucerne as soon as possible, you must borrow the teleportation circle of the Tower. And the coordinates of Lucerne can only be known through those two legendary mages.

Incidentally, the Tower is divided into 11 floors. The top layer is exclusive to Sylvia. This time, however, Charlotte didn't intend to alarm the true ruler of Icewind Castle.

From the outside, the Tower of Icewind is undoubtedly a regular building with a wide base and a narrow top, resembling a cone, and using unknown materials to create a glass curtain wall effect throughout. Normally, a cone-shaped building that looks crystal beautiful from the outside should have a very small space at the top, but this is not the case.

Because of the spatial magic, in fact, the space of the top two floors far exceeds the floor covering an area of 5,000 square meters, and the space is beyond human imagination.

The proof is that when Charlotte stood in front of the door of the house painted with all kinds of cute animals, he had already walked at least five kilometers on this floor.

"Visitors are found and visitors are not allowed to enter without authorization. ”

The voice reached Charlotte's ears before he was about to knock on the door, and he sighed slightly, and quietly glanced at Elle. As long as it involves sabotage and pranks, Elle's tacit understanding with Charlotte will immediately soar to the point of heart-to-heart connection. With just one look, Elle patted her flat chest and put on an expression of 'rest assured, leave it to me'.

Thoughts molded a model in the void, and then encouraged the magic energy in the body to pour in. The model shimmered red in the void, and Charlotte was not satisfied with this, just in an instant, the skills of powerful spells and extremely effective spells were superimposed on it. On the other hand, Elle also poured a similar effect into Charlotte's spell model. Then, a fireball that was so hot that it was almost pure white appeared in front of him.

It's just a spell of the three rings, but through the separate enhancement of Charlotte and Elle, it has a destructive power close to the spell of the five rings, which is the terrifying power of the Book of Atroac. Although Charlotte, who has Elle, is only a high-level mage at the level of the Six Rings, her real challenge level is far more than that.

Before the fireball was about to be guided by thoughts towards the gate, the fireball containing terrifying energy suddenly extinguished with a pop. The door of the room, which was decorated with animal drawings with spell runes, opened to reveal a short, pink-haired girl with a crippled figure and wearing pale blue pajamas with a rabbit pattern. Behind her, a girl in pink pajamas who looked exactly like her was rubbing her eyes in confusion.

"Damn wolfhound, are you too long, and you dare to run to my bedroom with Dinah and Dinah to play with your lame spells!"

"Hoo-ha-yes, yes! Because of you, Dinah is severely sleep-deprived, what if she can't develop in the future? Can you afford it? Wolfhound!"

"You're still hundreds of years old and still developing! You're lying to ghosts here! And ah! What kind of dress are you, I beg you not to pretend to be tender here, this has caused me a serious psychological blow!"

Whether it is the painting style or words of the two sisters, Charlotte feels that she really can't accept it. After a habitual death, Charlotte cleverly shifted the subject before the two legendary mages could stare at her.

"Wait! Don't do it yet! I need your help with something very important this time, please tell me the coordinates of Lucerne! ”

Charlotte took a fluorescent plant out of the space bag in the pre-dawn darkness, and he held the young weed-like plant in his hand and handed it forward, and immediately saw Dema and Dinah with a look of joy and obvious jealousy.

"Damn! I can't bear to have such a strange thing, and the master is too kind to you, a wolf dog! Dinah, Dinah, I can't stand it!"

"Well, for your sake, for the sake of giving such a strange thing, Dema will reluctantly help you once......"

The weed-like plant was no ordinary thing, but a rare curiosity known as the beard of Stee. It must grow away from the crowd, as inconspicuous as ordinary weeds during the day, and at night it spews magical energy like a tidal wave and glows faintly.

It is said that the plants called Stae's Beard are born from the essence of the Stae's world, and they have the power to expand thoughts and guide rules, even for legends, which is a treasure that is rare in a lifetime.

Sylvia would give such a strange thing to a six-ringed mage, you can imagine how much she doted on Charlotte. You must know that even Dema and Dinah, who have served Sylvia for hundreds of years, were only given by Sylvia before they were promoted to legends, and that time was just a small leaf.

"Then please two!"

Although it is heart-wrenching, there are at least six more of this precious plant in Sylvia. Now that Vivien Leigh's life and death are uncertain, it is completely worth paying such a price. Otherwise, the two maids would have told Sylvia about it. At that point, it won't be so easy to leave.

By the way, in the past 8 years, although Sylvia has spoiled herself to an excessive degree, she has almost tilted the resources of the entire Icewind Castle towards herself. However, there are two downsides!

First, he did not allow himself to touch any temporal and spatial spells, and second, he was so strict about his whereabouts that he was almost not allowed to take half a step out of Icewind Castle.

Therefore, if you want to bypass Sylvia and make your way to Erosa, this Stae's Beard is a must-have.

"Well, for the sake of your sincerity, I'll help you activate the teleportation ......"

Just before Dema decided to open the teleportation circle for Charlotte in private, a cold and inorganic voice suddenly echoed throughout the entire tenth floor.

"Charlotte, Dema, Dinah, Claire, come to my study at once. Well, by the way, bring the two junior apprentices on the first floor who are waiting to be summoned. ”

It was undoubtedly Sylvia's voice, and only Sylvia could let it spread to all sides of the Tower. Charlotte watched as Dema quietly put the Stae's Beard into her pouch, and let out a miserable cry when she realized that she had lost all her money.

"Pit daddy, pit dad - please, please, can you treat it as if the transaction just now didn't happen!"

"What do you say......"

Looking at the sneer on Dema's face, Charlotte pulled her silver hair in pain.
