Hannah's movements paused. She slowly lowered the muzzle of her gun and took a step back, another step back. She reached out with her left hand to grab Jonah's sleeve, but the astrologer rushed past her so quickly that the woman's hand in red only touched the half-dried corners of the sorcerer's robe.

"Long Ji, you...... I ......" Jonah staggered forward fifteen paces, and the figure grew closer and closer, so close that he felt a sudden pang of fear. At this moment, the woman leaning against the tree spoke, "Don't come. ”

The boy's right-raised foot landed on the spot, crushing a few dead leaves. The distance between the two was only twenty yards, and with the dappled sunlight shining through the dense forest on the leafy woodland, Jonah should have seen her face clearly, but for some reason, the shadow of the black-clad man was always shrouded in a layer of fog, and even if he was close, he couldn't see clearly.

"Long Ji, why are you in this world?What about Long Zunjun?What about his followers?" Before his brain could give instructions, he blurted out a series of questions, "Are you okay? Are you hurt? What did Long Zunjun do when he brought you to the Northern Continent?...... I'm sorry, but the famous sword 'Jairus' you gave us for safekeeping is not here, it was recovered by its master, and the King of Assassins, no, Long Chang ......"

"Don't speak. Ryuhime interrupted the boy's increasingly depressed words, "Listen to me." ”

"Okay, I won't go over and I won't speak. I'm right here watching you and listening to you. Jonah stood there stunned, afraid that the man in front of him would disappear in the blink of an eye.

The Oriental woman shook her head slightly. "I'm not sure if you're there, or if you'll hear what I'm saying. Her eyes as dark as night looked into nothingness, and she said calmly, "I don't know what world you're in, and I don't know which world I'm in. This is the seventh projection, and the last, and the space I am in is very strange, and it can give people the power to fold time and space for a short time. I have to get in touch with you, the first few times I had the opportunity to send projections to Elliot, Sibi and Jekong, but perhaps because the connection of the psychic forces was too weak, the projection failed. The fourth time I sent a message to Simion Longchang, but there was no feedback at all, is he not in the world as we know it? The chains of hatred bind us so tightly that there was no reason to fail...... Last three chances I choose to send you a projection, Jonah. We've been together for a very short time, but I think—maybe it's just an unrealistic idea—that there's some kind of supernatural connection between you and me. ”

Jonah froze, staring at the woman who was close at hand.

Long Ji paused, glanced back, and quickened her voice: "There's no time, daddy, they'll find me soon." Wherever you are, listen carefully to what I have to say. My father, Long Zunjun, the head of the Long family, is the one who invented the Yagu Cursed Soil Summoning Technique, and every undead who dies on the cursed soil will increase his strength, and in the space ring of the middle finger of his right hand is 300,000 square feet of soil, which is the soil of the core part of the Yagu Mountain Range. Listen, I know it sounds ridiculous, but everything is true, he is not betraying the Long family and colluding with the Brotherhood, in his eyes the Long Family, the Brotherhood, and even our continent are insignificant, he is pursuing a higher level, the legendary First World. ”

Jonah's eyes widened, and a meaningless moan came out of his throat.

Long Ji nodded heavily and continued, "A few years ago, he found a few things in the Endless Sand Sea, and in the ruins of the Astrology Tower of Anglicia (the marvelous location known as the Well of Light) he found several Chrono-Temporal Star Array research notes from the original astrology mentor Gilberto Gilbernaon, a magic ring that uses space-time magic to create space, and a detailed study of the Yagu Mountains. It's a sealed history, Gilbernaon discovers a very big secret, but before he can delve into it deeply, he disappears into the turbulence of time and space, and Daddy discovers that it all is connected, and with his wisdom and strength, the mysteries are solved one by one. He discovered the agreement between the betrayer Seglas and the six tribes of the elemental elves, and knew that Gilbernaion should have appeared in the Northern Continent according to the prophecy, and he realized that behind the six secret treasures was hidden the origin of the world, this world was imperfect, and the Yagu Mountains were a failed testing ground for the higher level of power, and more secrets were buried in the space-time landmarks of the six secret treasures, and what Segres left behind was not a peaceful future, but a spiral ladder to the higher world. ”

Jonah couldn't help but say to himself, "But Lord Gilbernaion never mentioned these things, although I talked to him face to face twice......"

"Daddy made a decision. The Long family, the Liang Sui Kingdom, the Eastern Continent and the whole world, he doesn't care about these, he wants the king of the top world. He gave the Cursed Soil Summoning to the Red Brotherhood in exchange for the undead for power, and when he acted, when the war began, my father found me and tied me to the Northern Continent, because my abilities could open the boundaries of time and space, and he refused to swallow my powers, because I would die if I were stripped of my bloodline powers—just like the hundreds of dragon children he devoured. "He followed the notes to find one elemental elf settlement after another, killed the guardians of the secret treasure, and devoured the elves with the power of the Great Devour." The Guardian's soul contains the information of the Temporal and Space Dao Marker, and he only needs to kill three elemental elves at most, and he can obtain the information of the secret treasure, and he does not need to break the barrier to open the ancient treasure box directly. Not long ago, he retrieved the last treasure through a strange black silk thread, pressed his hand to my forehead, and forcibly poured the space-time Dao sign into my mind. I don't know what he did, but I know that my body can't help but take the initiative to activate the power of 'ghost marriage', in a way I never imagined. My next-life lover didn't appear, the spatial rift widened, a door opened, and Daddy laughed heartily and led us into the purple mist-filled door. ”

Hannah whispered behind Jonah, "You don't care, do you? The astrologer couldn't hear her at all, and looked straight at the woman in black.

Long Ji hurriedly said, "I've never seen anything inside the door. We kept moving forward in the passage, and Daddy said that the six space-time landmarks were connected to each other, but the real place to go was the hidden seventh plane, and he didn't know how to open the seventh door, but he would always find clues. Soon we were in the first world, which was a chaotic place, where the rules of the world did not exist, and I was separated from my father. That's when I discovered a way to project, so I'll try to contact you right away. I have said the same thing to you three times, Jonah, and I wonder if you have heard me. ”

"I hear! I hear!" cried out the boy anxiously.

"If you hear it, go and tell the mainland about Daddy's intentions now!" Long Ji Zhengse said, "You are a member of the Astrologer Guild, and you have been recognized by many people, as long as you say it, someone will listen! The Emperor of the Tocharian Empire, the King of the East, the Ghost Organization, and even the Red Owl Brotherhood itself, even they will not sit idly by and watch Daddy do such a thing!" Listen, my father, the head of the Long family, Long Venerable, wants to use the power of the billions of undead in the land of the curse of Yagu to forcibly break time and space and go to the highest world, which may mean destruction for our continent!"

"I—I know, I'm going to ...... it all," Jonah muttered.

Long Ji's eyes were so hard, flashing with a steely and resolute light: "And you, you have to promise me one thing." This is an unreasonable request, because even if you are as dull as me, you can feel the deep feelings and struggles in your heart...... There are too heavy shackles between me and Long Chang, and there is no room for respite, even if we settle down in Cherry Ferry for the time being, it is just a luxurious rest waiting for the next journey to begin. I always kept moving forward, following the footsteps of that man, listening to nothing else, thinking about nothing, just afraid that if there was a trace of loosening in my heart, the power that had supported me to this point would be shattered into ashes. At one point, the moonlight at Cherry Ferry was so beautiful that I thought about letting go of everything, just for a moment. ”

"I promise you, no matter what. Jonah said. He clenched his fists and prepared for all that was to come.

“...... Come to me, Jonah. The Oriental woman pursed her lips slightly.

The boy jerked his head up.

"Come to me, even if it's an outrageous request. Ryuji said, her voice so calm, but her words so hot, like a cold volcanic lake suddenly rising into the sky. "I may die soon, or I may be tied up by my father for a long time. You're going to go where no one has ever been, and you're going to fight against the man who's stronger than anyone else. No matter what the future holds, I don't want to fight against fate alone, I'm a selfish woman, and I want to go back to the other side of the holy river, smell the grass, and sit on the roof and watch the moonlight. If I could return to my old life, I would fulfill my destiny and end my bond with Simion Longchang. If by then, we were all alive......

I promise and will give you an answer. ”

Her eyes were fixed on the air. Her projection could not see the astrologer on the other side of the world, and the astrologer could not see her on the other side of the world. But Ryuki heard, heard Jonah's voice, a ripple that crossed the barriers of time and space to bring the trembling of a soul as bright as a star to her, like the warm light of the wilderness in the middle of the night.

"Wait for me. ”

17-year-old Jonah said.
