Chapter 2131: Ash Annihilation at Dawn (63)
Even in this case, the Great Teacher Clarna still did not take off her black gold-wrapped robes of the witch, and her mysterious true face was still hidden in the shadow of the hood of the robe.
"That's right...... It's better to start there. She sighed and repeated what she had just said, as if she were just muttering to herself.
"I would stay in the Turkic Everglades for two reasons. One of them is my personal reason, inconvenient to say. But the other one, it doesn't hurt to say it to you. "
She looked up, as if looking at Eric the Strategist. Because she could already see his question in Bediwell's eyes, "Is it really okay to say this to everyone here?"
"You're Lawrence's brother, aren't you. I hugged you when you were a child. "Time flies so fast, you've grown up." "
"I've heard my brother talk about you. If it weren't for your treatment, I would not only be paralyzed, but even blind and deaf, and I would not have been able to live to this day. Eric also picked up and said, "So don't worry, big teacher, I won't tell your secret." I swear by my life. "
"Very well, then ------" Clarna picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip of black tea. Even the teacup was made of amethyst, presumably something derived from this abode. And when she drank tea, there was no flaw in the whole movement, her face was still hidden under the shadow of the hood, and only a faint silhouette could be seen. Only then did Bediwell realize that the hood was actually not a simple hood, the part of the hood covering her face seemed to have some kind of concealment magic at work, and there was a layer of something like black mist blocking the light from the outside world, so as long as the big teacher did not take off the hood, no matter which angle she looked at, outsiders would not be able to see her face clearly.
"Do you know the [Gate of Eternal Calamity]?" she said suddenly.
"Eternal Doom...... Huh?!" Bediwell suddenly seemed to think of something, but with a pain in his head, what almost came to his mind disappeared without a trace, and what he almost remembered suddenly became unrecalled.
"Can't remember?" Clarna asked tentatively.
"Hmm...... What the hell is going on...... I seem to have an impression of this...... Bediwell clutched his aching head.
"I can't think of it. The kind of red potion you use will make you lose something every time, and it's a bargain with [Chaos], an equivalent exchange. The thing taken away can be a part of your body or a memory. You may still be aware that a part of your body is gone, but your memories are silent and you can't notice it until you use it. You have a special constitution, and if a part of your body disappears, you can redeem it from chaos. Memories that have disappeared are gone forever and can never be retrieved again. In the future, it is better to use less red potion. "
"Is that so...... Bediwell's head was still swollen and aching, and he knew that it was useless to continue to think about it, and that the memory that was lost was lost, so he deliberately did not think about it. The moment he thought like this, the werewolf youth's headache suddenly disappeared. He didn't delve into why the Great Teacher Clarna knew that he was able to use [Chaos Blood], maybe he had revealed the corresponding information to the Great Teacher through the Spell Fire, which had been passed down from the Great Teacher.
"Since no one here knows about [the Gate of Eternal Calamity], I'll just explain it directly. Clarna sighed and continued, "The Gate of Eternal Calamity, simply put, is a device used by the ancient gods and men to travel through the [Old Universe] that is about to be destroyed to reach the [New Universe] where we are currently located. To put it more simply, it is a kind of equipment that crosses cosmic time, avoids the great destruction of the universe, and directly teleports through time and space. "
"I've heard of that. Strategist Eric sighed, "Legend has it that the ancient gods and men used some means to avoid the inevitable destruction of their universe and came to the new universe. Human beings are just a species created by the ancient gods and humans after they came to the new universe. It turns out that the device used to travel through the universe is called the Gate of Eternal Calamity? "
"That's it. The senior teacher nodded: "Normally, with the decline of the ancient gods and human races, their ancient civilization has also been dusted, and no one will ever be able to touch and rebuild the [Gate of Eternal Calamity]. But now there is a special case. ------ [Lord of Chaos] Demian, the genius of reverse engineering, the old succubus, is using the first-level ancient ruins of the ancient gods and people to study the [Gate of Eternal Calamity]. He's even already working on [Eternal Gate], and the creation of this device is just around the corner, and it's estimated that it will be made within a few years. "
"Awesome. The werewolf youth picked up the black tea on the table and took a sip. As he had ordered, the great teacher Clana added just the right amount of herbs to the black tea, which smelled very pleasant, had a refreshing and fatigue-relieving effect. Bediwell suddenly remembered that a few years ago, when he was still living with Lianyin and Husky in the snowfields of Western Siberia, Lianyin often made this vanilla black tea for him to drink.
It would be more accurate to say that she brewed him a refreshing vanilla black tea when he got up in the morning, and prepared milk black tea for him at night before going to bed. This menu is exactly the same as the two-choice menu that the teacher proposed just now.
It's weird.
"The reason why I stayed in the Swamp and couldn't leave for the time being was [Eternal Gate]. Clarna continued, "According to someone's words, the [Gate of Eternal Calamity] created by Demian will be the last ark of the world, the only ship of distress that will take away those who carry hope when the destruction of this world comes. So it had to be done, and it had to fall into the hands of Great Britain successfully. Only by doing so, the world ...... That child will be guaranteed to be saved. "
"...... kid?"
"...... It's self-care here, don't care. The Great Teacher took a sip of tea and continued, "But our enemies are also eyeing [the Gate of Eternal Calamity]. I cannot reveal the names of these enemies, but they are certainly not on our side. If [Eternal Gate] falls into the hands of these bad people, it will not only fail to be the shipwreck of the world's last hope, but will instead become a source of calamity that will spread the seeds of calamity to the next universe. So I must stay here, and under no circumstances will we allow our enemies to succeed. Do you understand?"
"I don't understand. "In that case, can't you contact Demian and the Britons directly, and let them accept you and keep you in the secret base where they built the Gate of Eternal Calamity?"
"If only things could be as simple as that. The Great Master sighed, "The construction of [the Gate of Eternal Calamity] is a confidential matter for Great Britain and for the Turkic elephants. I, the one who knew their secrets for no reason, rushed to contact them, and no matter what I said, I could not gain their trust. As a result, I'd better keep it secret, they built their [Eternal Gate], and I silently guarded them in the shadows, which was the best option for now. "
"I know everything. Eric asked, "But just now you burned the giant worms of the entire swamp to ashes with a spell, so that such a big action will not attract their attention...... "
"Don't worry about this, the base of the ancient gods and people is very deep in the ground of the Demon Swamp, and they use special means of teleportation to enter and exit the base. They wouldn't notice a little fight of this magnitude on the swamp. "
"Really...... Eric didn't go any further. The fire rain and flame storm just now were already close to the ultimate magic level spells, and that level was still a small fight. So how terrifying it must have been when Clarna moved her real life.
"Then, the things I have to explain are also done, and it is your turn, stupid apprentice. The big teacher turned to Bediwell and said jokingly, "You came to the Demon Swamp to find me, and you have gone through hardships all the way, of course you have your own goals, right?"
"Hmm," the werewolf youth rubbed his arm, "Please help me break the seal of the spell fire." That thing has been dragging me down, and my hands and feet have been almost like they are bound by invisible shackles for the past few days, and the symptoms are getting worse day by day. It's almost the limit. "
And so it was. The Great Master sighed, "I gave Lawrence the spell fire in the first place to limit his own overly powerful spell potential. I didn't expect him to give you this problematic spell fire. I'm sorry for the trouble. "
"Not really...... Bedivel scratched his head: "It's just...... Hurry up and give me a spell fire that doesn't have a problem, okay?"
"The spell fire can be said to be a split soul, once you accept it, it becomes a part of your soul, and it will always be with you, and it is very difficult to cut it off. The Great Teacher said, "So what I can do is not to give you another spell fire, but to directly lift the seal of the spell fire on your hand." I can still do this, but it takes more time to perform the ceremony. "
"How long will it take?" said Bediwell, with a puzzled expression, "I still want to break the seal and get back to Cairo by tomorrow morning." "
"Are you in such a hurry, stupid apprentice?" Clarna snorted, "Fortunately, I know you'll be coming to me in the near future, so the preparations for the ceremony are ready, and it's just a matter of performing the ritual on you." Let me think. No matter how fast the ceremony was, it would have to take at least five hours. And a lot of stamina will be consumed during this time. After the ceremony, you won't even have the strength to walk. In that case, are you still planning to do the ritual right now?"
"Yes, as soon as possible. Bediwell replied categorically.
"Yes. Then follow me. Clarna was cheerful enough to immediately agree and leave her seat.
"What are you going to do? Do you want to stay here?" she asked Eric, the Strategist, again, "It's been a long wait, and it's none of your business." The room is ready for you, do you want to go sleep until tomorrow?"
"I'd like to take a look at the secret underground base where they built [the Gate of Eternal Calamity]. Is there a way to get in?" asked Eric.
"That's impossible, die. Clarna replied.
"Yes. Little Lawrence sighed, and immediately gave up the idea: "If you don't find a way to curry favor with Great Britain first, you probably won't be able to participate in that kind of secret project." That's fine. Where's the guest room? I went to sleep. "
"This way. Clarna stretched out her hand, and a bright, but unwarm flame appeared on the crystal floor, leading Eric into the common room. And the big teacher here also walked in front and led Bediwell to the room where the seal was lifted.
