Ring of Fate

Chapter 1039 Wedding Dress (Thanks to FreyJun1552 for the reward to Silver Alliance)
Glancing at the dark end of the stairs where he couldn't see below, Lumian took out a mirror and activated his contract ability.

He immediately sensed the mark on the full-length mirror in Tudor's treasure, and could enter the mirror and travel through it at any time.

Keeping this feeling, Lumian reminded Franca and Janna:
"Wait and walk along the sides, stick closely to them."

According to his experience, if he walked down the stairs like this, he would enter the reflection range of the full-length mirror.

For the extraordinary people from other paths, what they need to guard against is that they themselves will be affected by the hallucinations caused by them, and they will scare themselves crazy or even kill themselves. As for the "hunters" and "witches", if their images are reflected in the full-length mirror, they may be resurrected by the long-dead Alistair Tudor who has taken over his body with the help of the reserved arrangement.

Lumian felt that, given Alistair Tudor's level of madness, he probably wouldn't mind whether it was the "Blood Emperor" or the "Blood Queen" who returned, so the "witches" had to be careful.

"Yeah." Franka and Janna had heard from Lumian a long time ago about the dangers within the Tudor treasure.

Even if they don't know, in the current situation, they will listen to the advice first and then find an opportunity to ask why.

Lumian kept the mirror mark activated, and the residual aura of the "Blood Emperor" on his right palm turned from light to heavy, covering it with a pale color.

Before he could go down the stairs, the voice of the "magician" lady suddenly rang in his ears:

"I have located your mirror mark."

As the voice answered, bright stars lit up, covering Lumian and the others.

When her vision returned, Franka found herself in a corridor that looked like it was made of starlight.

On both sides of the corridor, there are starlight doors standing in the darkness. The bottom is translucent, and endless darkness can be seen. There is no dome above, and the high places are dotted with illusory stars.

At the end of this deep and spacious corridor, there is a full-length silver mirror with a classical shape and intricate patterns around it.

Almost at the same time, Franka and Janna noticed that the "Magician" lady raised her right hand and gently reached forward.

The space around the silver full-length mirror suddenly bent, forming a closed sphere with deep shadows, blocking all light from entering.

Lumian and the others could not see the silver full-length mirror, and the silver full-length mirror could not reflect them either.

"This way you can be a little freer." Ms. Magician said with a smile.

She, wearing a black magic robe with silver patterns, turned to Lumian, Franca and Janna and said:

"You can choose the treasure room. I will deal with the dangers inside."

Franka and Janna immediately looked at Lumian, waiting for him to demonstrate to them.

Lumian glanced around and walked slowly along the deep and spacious corridor, saying casually:
"When I mentioned Madam Puaris and Omybella above the gray fog, I also mentioned a concern."

"What worries?" Franca asked cooperatively.

Both she and Janna could probably guess that Lumian wanted to use small talk to distract himself, and choose the treasure room based purely on spiritual intuition and his own characteristics, aura, and pollution.

Lumian, in the form of the Witch of Despair and with her black hair loose, glanced at Ms. Magician and Mr. Hanged Man and said:

“At the end of the awakening operation, there are two things I cannot understand:
"First, why didn't the 'Original Witch' make any moves? Second, why didn't the 'Great Mother' try to stop it when she had clearly made many arrangements in the Dream City?

"It was expected that there would be no interference from other beings. Tianzun would not wait until they were ready and could effectively interfere with the internal situation of the dream before letting Zhou Shasha come. In that case, the one who was suppressed might be his hope of success. Moreover, Anderson would burn down the 'Painted Hotel' and the 'Dumb Studio', leaving no chance for the believer of the 'Fantasy Society' to intervene. Mushu Hospital is also suppressed by the true god.

"But the 'Great Mother' sent Mrs. Pualis with baby Omibella to be the director of Mushu Hospital, so how come there is no splash at all?
"His influence in Dream City is not limited to Mushu Hospital. Whether it is Green who was originally active outside the hospital, or Lu Yongan who can enter and leave the hospital freely, they can effectively avoid the suppression of Mushu Hospital by the True Gods and do something."

“Perhaps it was Pengden, Grisha, and Amon who didn’t appear in the final stage who were blocking them?” Janna guessed.

"That's a possibility." The Magician talked about her speech at the Tarot Club, "But I have a bad feeling. Maybe the Great Mother has achieved her goal in a way that is beyond our thinking."

"My experience is that abnormal calmness must be a problem," Mr. "The Hanged Man" emphasized.

Franka took a breath and turned her gaze to Lumian.

Lumian understood what she meant and smiled.

“Mr. Fool only gave this revelation about the Great Mother: becoming the Immortal Witch, borrowing the Gift of the Earth, and facing the Abscessed Hand.”

After saying this, Lumian suddenly had an inspiration. He turned to the right and pushed open a translucent door filled with starlight.

The light behind the door dimmed and no attack occurred.

Lumian waited two seconds before passing through the door and entering the room.

What caught his eye was a pitch-black coffin.

This coffin is different from the rectangular coffins used in Trier in daily life. It has a distinct curve, with one end larger than the other, and many bird and tree patterns carved on the surface.

“Eh…” Franka’s head popped out from Lumian’s shoulder. “Is this a coffin in the Western Continent style? Where did the Blood Emperor get it from?”

She already knew that the Western Continent was the country she had traveled through before, which had evolved over thousands or tens of thousands of years or even longer.

From the fact that she could barely understand the language of "Armored Shadow" Chen Tu and the way he was dressed, Franca felt that the civilization of the Western Continent might not have experienced a break like the Northern and Southern Continents, but had maintained a certain continuity. The shape of the coffin in front of her seemed to be another piece of evidence.

As for why the language and style of the Western Continent had "regressed" to what she remembered as the "ancient times" when civilization had not been interrupted, she could not think of a reason for the time being.

The known "time travelers" are all in the North and South Continents and the original East Continent!
No, the "Mysterious Queen" said that the ancient sun god is not a "cocooned person" like us, and there is a "traveler" who has not revealed his identity... As Franka's thoughts gradually dispersed, Lumian and Ms. "Magician" had walked to the black coffin in the style of the Western Continent, and the latter let the lid slide to the side and fall onto the translucent ground.

At a glance, Franca saw a beautiful face with eyes tightly closed, pale and cold, she saw the gorgeous phoenix crown and bridal robe, and she saw the color of bright red.

"Chinese wedding dress...the bride's corpse...Fuck, what the hell is the 'Blood Emperor' doing?" Franca blurted out.

Before she finished her words, the black coffin with pine, cypress and crane patterns began to shake violently.

A pale, delicate hand with abnormally long, sharp, and cold gray nails silently pressed on the edge of the coffin.

With this action, Franka and Janna's lips suddenly became dry, as if they were being roasted.

Outside the treasure house, the "Blue Avenger" was sailing in the strong wind and huge waves and suddenly fell down.

The wind stopped, the waves calmed down, and water vapor rose from the blue sea and evaporated quickly.

The deck of the Blue Avenger began to crack at a speed visible to the naked eye. Even though the consciousness of this ghost ship had been trying hard to repair it, it was unable to stop the trend from worsening.

In the Tudor Treasury, in the corresponding room.

Before the "Magician" could deliver a violent blow to the corpse in the coffin, Lumian stretched out his right palm.

His palms were dark red with spots and covered in paleness, with a deep black "pinhole" emitting an indescribable aura.

The female corpse wearing the bright red wedding dress and golden phoenix crown mentioned by Franca stopped trembling and no longer looked like it would get up at any time. The delicate but pale hand slowly slid down and returned to the side of the corpse.

All abnormalities disappeared.

"The power of the 'Witch of Disaster'." The "Magician" lady looked at it for a few seconds with eyes as bright as the starry sky, and said, "Also, the power of the 'Undead'... Can the gifts of these two paths be put together?"

As she spoke, she and Mr. Hanged Man both looked at Lumian.

Lumian glanced at the dark "pinhole" in his palm and muttered to himself thoughtfully:
"Perhaps..."

This thing seemed to be a fusion of the residual aura of the "Blood Emperor", the gift of the "War Bishop", the seal of the "Underworld Man", and the status and knowledge of the "Witch".

If such a big hodgepodge can be put together, then the powers of the "witch" and "death" paths picked out separately should also be possible.

Ms. "Magician" and Mr. "Hanged Man" fell into deep thought, while Franka associated the two terms "disaster witch" and "undead" with the state of the female corpse and her previous performance.

She said in amazement:
"This, this can't be a drought demon, right?

"Did the Blood Emperor bring Hanba to the Northern Continent?

"How?"

Isn’t it said that the Western Continent is sealed by the power of the Heavenly Venerable, and that only when Mr. Fool truly gains the upper hand can the barrier be opened and people can enter and exit freely?

Before that, shouldn't we just be able to do some secret rituals?

Even if the Blood Emperor really opened a passage before his death and tried to drag the gods down with him, that passage was sealed in Trier in the Fourth Epoch. The Blood Emperor should not have had time to send this Hanba to the Blue Avenger...

Hearing Franka's words, the "Magician" turned her body and explained:

"The power does not come from Beyonder characteristics. It may come from the Western Continent or somewhere else, but the person is from the Northern Continent."

"Uh..." Franca looked carefully and found that the female corpse in the coffin had light yellow hair and her facial features were quite deep.

"Artificial drought demon?" Franka said with enlightenment, "The Blood Emperor has obtained some strange knowledge. Is this the product of an experiment? The phoenix crown, the shawl, and the coffin are part of the knowledge, part of the ritual?"

Lumian nodded, looked at the female corpse and said:
"If we wake her up, will it help her regain her sanity?"

Ms. Magician shook her head slowly:
"'She' was born to be a monster."
