Chapter 66 Close cooperation between the two organizations
"Shh Alcmene slapped Pennis with his tail a few times to express his dissatisfaction: "Do you know who Jack is talking about?
"Well, I didn't mean not to tell you, but at first I didn't think the two things were closely related, so I didn't mention it. Pannis scratched his head and explained embarrassedly: "It's an organization called the Sands of Time, and most of the members we know now are mages, who are causing tragedies everywhere, using magic arrays to kill a lot of people, and all the people who are killed are in a state, that is, they become extremely old, and then their organs fail to die of the whole body, which is commonly known as old death." Judging by some of the information given to us by the Sea Clan, their purpose is to steal the time of these people, collect the victim's time and don't know what to do. ”
"Hiss, collecting time?" Alcmene forgot to shake his tail and asked suspiciously, "Can that kind of thing be collected?" Hiss, this completely abstract and non-physical concept could not be taken away from anyone. ”
"That's what I used to think. Pannis shook his head and said, "However, the magic circle they use is of the same origin as the magic circle used by the gods, and according to the current situation, it should be taught to them by the few remaining half-dead people of the Three-Eyed Clan of the Divine Servant." ”
"Sss Hiss, but seriously. I really can't understand how you can steal someone's time, hiss, and it's hard to understand what you just said about the victims. Hey, a good person, after being attacked by the magic array, he directly became old and dying? Unlikely, hiss. Is that really unimaginable, getting older and older at a speed that is visible to the naked eye? ”
"Actually, I can't imagine it. Pannis smiled bitterly and sighed, "I didn't even think it was knowledge that belonged to the mortal realm, but they did it. Although we have not witnessed the process of their spells, the victims have seen many of them. Especially in the two places around Spindle Village and the villages around Dilsalen, thousands of people died like this, and all of them were dead alive, and you have not seen it, it is difficult to understand the shock. So I have to believe that someone can do this kind of thing. However, I still have some doubts about Doris's news, which means that they are stealing time, and like you said, I don't understand what the so-called stealing of their time is, so I am not sure if they are stealing time. ”
"Looks like you're going to have to go to Fira's, hiss. Alcmene's yellow-green vertical pupils shone brightly: "Hasn't he been studying time magic for a hundred years, hiss." And he can actually use time magic to change the effect of time on him, and forcibly let himself live for a few more decades, hiss, I think the problem related to time magic. There must be nothing wrong with looking for him. ”
"That's what I thought about when it first came out. Pannis said helplessly: "But Christo told me at the time that Fila was too weak to get out of bed, and it was really inappropriate for me to consult him about these problems at this time." ”
"It's not so exaggerated that you can't get out of bed, hiss. Alcmene shook his head and said, "I saw him once a few years ago. His apprentice brought him to me for a follow-up visit, hiss, at that time he could walk slowly a few steps with the help of the apprentice, of course, he certainly couldn't go far, hiss, he was panting after walking around my room, and it took twenty minutes. ”
"And what about his mental state?" asked Pannis, "can he still stay awake?"
"Hiss, the mental state is good, the mind is very clear, hiss, and there is nothing wrong with the logic of speaking. Alcmene said: "It's just very easy to get tired, hiss, and talk a little slurred after a long time." And this is still on the basis of continuous medication, hiss, if you stop taking medicine one day, I am afraid that you will soon not be able to be as awake as you are now. So, hiss, if you still want to ask him for more information about time magic, you have to do it as soon as possible, hiss, if it drags on any longer, I'm not sure if he will have a chance to answer your questions, and then he will miss the matter. ”
Alcmene's words sounded cold, but they were nothing more than the lizardmen's natural bluntness, and Pannis knew that she was not wrong at all. Originally, Pannis thought that the Servant of God and the Sands of Time only had a temporary partnership in the City of Innocence, after all, the members of the Sands of Time were all living and were unlikely to work too closely with the dead, but Jack's message shattered his illusions and brought the relationship closer together. Obviously, the half-dead of the Divine Servants knew that they could not quietly enter the Whispering Swamp, so they entrusted this matter to the members of the Sands of Time, since the half-dead could even leave things like divine blood to the people of the Sands of Time to deal with, it was enough to show that the cooperation between the two sides had reached a very close point, and they could no longer be separated. If you want to deal with the plan of the half-dead who don't know the contents, you must also take the Sands of Time into account, so figuring out the hidden methods of the Sands of Time has become a major event that can affect the safety of the entire Yara world, and he can't afford to hesitate anymore for fear of burdening his old friends.
"Whew, I understand. Pannis sighed deeply and said with a self-deprecating smile: "Originally, I was going to visit him this time, but now it seems that I have to trouble him a little more, I hope it won't bring him too much burden." I just sent off the goblins a few months ago, and I don't want to watch another friend leave so soon. ”
"If you just ask him to answer some questions or judge some situations, hiss, it shouldn't be a big problem. Alcmene said: "As long as you don't let him accompany you to fight, hiss, your worries will not come true, don't worry." ”
"Hopefully it's like you said. Pannis, however, was not so confident: "If it was because of me that his death was haste...... Oh, forget it, I have to go no matter what, so let's do it, let's go according to the original plan, and we will leave in two days. "To be continued.
