The stars dotting the dome have all been extinguished at this moment, the river of aurora flowing has also disappeared without a trace, and the temple hall has lost all light sources.

The magic array at Merlin's feet collapsed inch by inch, and his figure flickered, staggering to stabilize his crumbling body, and his eyes were uncontrollably stained with a layer of blood red.

Endless murmurs echoed wildly in his head.

His brow was tightly locked, and his right hand was lightly pressed against his temple, as if he was struggling with it, and after a long time, the red finally faded, and he lowered his hand, and between his eyebrows was unprecedented exhaustion.

"Uncle Merlin? Are you okay? Jia Lan helped Lin Qiye, and when he saw Merlin in the distance, he asked with some concern.

"I'm fine......"

Merlin waved his hand and glanced at Lin Qiye, who was lying quietly on the ground, "His body is overflowing with the power of faith, and he has not completely absorbed the seal, don't move his body at will, let him slowly adapt." ”

"Okay." Garan nodded repeatedly.

Merlin took a deep breath and walked through the temple hall, reaching out and pushing open the door.

Squeak ——!

The low and heavy sound of the door opening echoed through the empty temple, and Merlin, dressed in dark blue magic robes, walked to the open space outside the temple, his eyes swept around, as if he was looking at something.

After a moment, he raised the magic wand in his hand, and two magic arrays, one purple and one green, quickly outlined under his feet, intertwining into two different mysterious patterns.

In the temple, Jia Lan, who was waiting by Lin Qiye's side, saw this scene, and a look of doubt appeared in his eyes.

"Uncle Merlin, isn't the power of faith already sealed? Why are you still drawing magic circles? ”

Merlin stood in the center of the gradually forming magic array and smiled, "This is another magic array. ”

"What is it for?"

"The green one, used to temporarily cover the aura of the power of faith, these power of faith is poured into the body of Lord Nanaya, which will inevitably make the irrational Susanoo chase after him in a rage, we need this circle to delay for a while......

As for the purple one, it's kept secret for now. ”

Looking at the smile on Merlin's face, Garan stuck out her tongue.

In front of the temple, the dense magical aura overflowed, and beside the unconscious Lin Qiye, Jia Lan looked at Merlin quietly, while Merlin looked down at the magic array under his feet, and the atmosphere suddenly quieted down.

Under the red moon, the breeze blows through the wind chimes at the eaves of the temple, making a crisp tinkling sound.

"Little girl." Merlin spoke suddenly.

"Huh?"

"Who the hell are you?"

Garan looked at Merlin and blinked, "What's wrong?" ”

"I'm a little ashamed." Merlin sighed helplessly, "With my eyes that spy on fate, I can see through the truth of the demise of the High Heaven Plain, the cause and effect after the disturbance of the timeline, and the game between the two major gods behind this catastrophe......

But today, suddenly two things appeared in a row that I couldn't see through.

One is the mysterious existence of the Eight Mirrors to resist the pollution of the red moon; Another...... It's you. ”

Merlin raised his head, his star-stained eyes, staring calmly into Garan's eyes,

"The trajectory of your fate over the past three years is clearly visible. But beyond that, whether it's predicting the future or going back thousands of years into the past, it's all chaos...... Who are you? What happened to you in your past? ”

Her long black hair was tied up with a red rope and draped behind Jia Lan, and she looked up at the fluttering wind chimes at the corner of the eaves, and smiled slightly,

"I'll keep it a secret for the time being."

Merlin's expression became bitter, and he shook his head helplessly, "For a magician who has spent his life in pursuit of truth and truth, there is nothing more torturous than an unknown puzzle...... Why don't I tell you what this magic circle does, and you tell me about your past? ”

"I don't."

“…… Well, then I'll change the question. Merlin stretched out his hand and pointed at Lin Qiye, who was still unconscious, "Why are you approaching him?" ”

"Because of love."

"I'm asking very seriously."

"I'm also very serious about answering."

"You've lived for thousands of years."

"So what?"

"How can a person who has lived for thousands of years fall in love with a man who has only known him so easily?" Merlin looked into Garan's eyes and said seriously, "I have seen your fate for nearly three years, and from the time you met him until now, you have stayed together for no more than a year.

For a year, even Lin Qiye himself didn't figure out whether he liked you, and for you, a person who has lived for thousands of years, it was a snap of his fingers, right?

Don't tell me it's love at first sight, I don't believe it.

What is the purpose of your approach to him? ”

Merlin's voice became deeper and deeper, he stared at Jialan's eyes, and the purple magic array that had just been drawn under his feet gradually lit up, wisps of lightning swam on it, and a terrifying magical aura spread in the air.

Jia Lan's dark blue robe was blown away by the power of the surging magic, and she sat quietly beside Lin Qiye, her lips pursed slightly.

"That's what you really want to ask, right?" Garan spoke softly.

"Hmm." Merlin said lightly, "You must give me the answer to this question." ”

Jia Lan's gaze moved away from Merlin's body and landed on the cheeks of Lin Qiye, who was sleeping on the side, those black jewel-like pure eyes blinked lightly, and there was a slight tenderness between his eyebrows.

"I approached him for no purpose, just to stay with him...... I waited two thousand years for him, how could it be against him?

I know you're jealous of me, but there are some things I can't tell you......

But I can guarantee that even if the whole world is against him, I will always be on his side. ”

Merlin fell silent.

He frowned and stared at Jia Lan for a long time, but still sighed, and the magic array under his feet gradually dimmed.

"You believe me?" Garan was surprised to see Merlin stop so easily.

"Even if you don't believe it, you can only believe it." Merlin shrugged his shoulders and looked at Lin Qiye, who was unconscious on the side, "If I really seal you here, he will definitely look for you frantically when he wakes up, and then I will become a wicked person who beats mandarin ducks again." ”

"Will he go crazy looking for me? Are you sure? ”

"Of course." Merlin raised an eyebrow, "He told me this morning that he likes you." ”

"He, he...... Did he really say that? ”

Jia Lan's body shook, her cheeks quickly stained two flushes, and the calm in her eyes had long since disappeared, replaced by unprecedented excitement and joy.

"Well, he's just still confused, is this his own inner thoughts, or is it the effect of Cupid's arrow." Merlin waved his hand, "You can explain to him yourself, the matter between you still has to be solved by yourself, and I can only help here." ”

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

Garan coughed lightly twice, suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, and sat in the temple, looking at the figure in the magic robe in front of him, and said sincerely:

"Praise the god of magic!!"
