"When Butterfly Dreamland mastered the holy cocoon, we used the method left by the past dream master day and night to guide the will dormant in the cocoon. It can be said that at that time, although both the butterfly and the moth were dormant and could only passively contact and fight, the butterfly's will was stronger. But now Gu Mian has guided the holy cocoon for several years, and the strengths of the butterfly and the moth have been exchanged. The moth is undoubtedly the stronger one.
"During most of the time when Butterfly Dreamland and Gumian controlled the Holy Cocoon, the Holy Cocoon was not protected by the fog, and the dreamers could directly contact and connect with the Holy Cocoon. But now the fog has appeared, it can be said that the struggle inside the Holy Cocoon has reached a critical moment. In addition to the two wills, some other mechanisms of the cocoon have played a role in creating fog to prevent external things from interfering with the cocoon... I guess this mechanism may have been left by the previous Lord of Dreams, and it is the last insurance before the God in the cocoon completely degenerates..."
The black cat then earnestly told Dorothy what he knew. Dorothy listened attentively and nodded silently. Then she began to ask questions.
"So, now, if the people of Black Dream pass through the fog and come into contact with the cocoon again, what will happen?"
"At this critical point...if Gu Mian contacts the Dao Saint Cocoon again to support Moth, I'm afraid the Twin Gods will immediately decide the winner...The Moth, which already has the advantage, will win a great victory, and immediately molt after defeating the butterfly. The worst dream master will be born at that time..."
The black cat looked at Dorothy and said this with an extremely serious expression. After hearing what the black cat said, Dorothy couldn't help but frown.
'When Gu Mian comes into contact with the cocoon again... then a new evil god will be born. The situation is so serious... The reason why Hei Meng and Ba Jian cooperated with each other, wouldn't they want the Spider Queen to help them cross the fog? The Spider Queen is known as the God of Conspiracy, isn't she afraid of being tricked?'
Dorothy thought this again, and soon after, she looked at the black cat and asked.
"So, do you know any way to get through the fog? Or a way to rescue people from the fog?"
"That fog is a product of the God of Dreams. As far as I know, unless guided by a powerful divine 'lamp', or ordered by a higher-level, main god-level 'shadow', there is basically no other way to find the way out of the fog... The current Black Dream is extremely anxious to cross the dream world to find the holy cocoon, and both of these points are extremely difficult for Black Dream to do. I don't know what kind of contract they have reached with the Lady of Pain... So the power of the Lady of Pain should not be able to cross the fog. Because although both are gods of 'shadow', they are at the same level in terms of the level of divinity. Although the current Lady of Pain is stronger and the Lord of Dreams is weaker, one cannot dominate the other in terms of nature."
The black cat continued to respond to Dorothy's words seriously. After hearing what it said, Dorothy couldn't help but sigh in her heart. She originally wanted to find a way to save Atwood from the little fox and her grandfather, but now it seems that there is no way, and Atwood will not be able to come out for a while.
“This is really troublesome…”
Dorothy sighed in her heart and said this. At this moment, when she was about to continue looking at the black cat to ask more questions, she suddenly felt a slight reaction in her "Wenhai Hangzhi", which seemed to be someone contacting her.
"Excuse me, wait a moment."
Dorothy said this while looking at the black cat in front of her. Then she took out her "Wen Hai Hang Zhi" and flipped through it in front of the black cat and Salia. After flipping through the contact page with new information, she found that it was a message from Adele.
"Little Detective, I have already sent people to investigate the matter you instructed, and I didn't find anything unusual."
Dorothy paused as she looked at the words on the page, then picked up the pen and began to write.
"Are you sure you didn't find any abnormalities at all?"
"Yes, my people checked the company where the two thieves worked before, and there was really no trace of secrets or extraordinary things. This whole case was completely an ordinary case from beginning to end, and there was no point involving the extraordinary. I have also found the batch of high-grade dyes they stole, and they are really just dyes, there is nothing strange about them..."
Adele responded to Dorothy and said so. Last night, Dorothy received information from Greg that seemed to be paying attention to this seemingly ordinary mundane case. Dorothy asked Adele, who had considerable underground power in Tivian, to help her re-investigate this seemingly ordinary theft case carefully. Now the result is out, but it is still beyond Dorothy's expectations. After Adele's investigation, this case is still an ordinary mundane case, and no suspicious points can be found at all.
Could it be that this was just an ordinary case? Why did the top people suddenly pay attention to this case?
For a moment, many doubts lingered in Dorothy's heart. After thinking for a while, she picked up the pen and wrote again while listening to Adele's words.
"Is there really nothing suspicious about those two people or their surroundings? Is there nothing that could arouse your attention?"
Dorothy asked Adele in a silent voice, and Adele quickly gave an answer.
"That's true. This kind of theft is really too common in Tivian. I have personally come into contact with them. Their goods, those two people, and other people they have come into contact with, all have no abnormalities. If I have to say something worth noting, there is actually one point.
"I discovered that the batch of high-end dyes that the two thieves stole was originally intended for a clothing brand I liked, but because they substituted low-end goods, many of the mid- to high-end clothes produced by that clothing brand recently had quality problems.
"Oh, you should have known this, right? The reason why I didn't show up on time for the appointment yesterday was because I went to that brand's clothing store to change clothes and met a bunch of people complaining. The reason why there were problems with the clothes of this brand was because these two thieves replaced their goods."
Adele said this as she looked at Dorothy's handwriting. Looking at Adele's handwriting on the "Wenhai Hangzhi", Dorothy couldn't help but be slightly startled, then her eyes widened, as if she thought of something.
"Dye... yesterday's clothes had quality issues..."
As she was thinking, Dorothy couldn't help but look out the window, at the bustling scene on the sidewalk outside the window, at the pedestrians holding all kinds of souvenirs and laughing on the streets in the festive atmosphere, and then her eyes narrowed slightly.
After some ideas came into her mind, Dorothy immediately picked up the pen again and started writing on the unfolded "Wenhai Voyage", asking Adele to respond again.
"Adele...Have you checked the low-grade dyes that the two thieves used to replace the high-grade dyes?"
"I have checked, but I still don't find anything. Although these dyes are of low quality, I still don't find any extraordinary traces. They are all ordinary goods."
Adele responded to Dorothy's words and she continued writing immediately.
"So, where are those low-quality dyes originally supplied to?"
"I checked this, too. These goods are basically supplied to factories and workshops in the south of the city. These factories and workshops produce low-end daily necessities, so the raw materials used are not of high quality, so the quantity and scale are large. To be on the safe side, I also visited several workshops. There were many workers inside, but I didn't find anything unusual from top to bottom."
Adele continued to write as Dorothy responded, and Dorothy was silent after reading Adele's response, and then continued to write.
"Are these factories and workshops currently mainly producing souvenirs for the World Expo?"
"Eh? How do you know? Yes, according to my previous investigation, the manufacturers of low-end dyes are now accepting orders from the royal government and working at full capacity to produce souvenirs for free distribution at the expo. The souvenirs that can be seen everywhere in the city are almost all produced by these manufacturers.
"These low-grade dyes seem to be used to dye those clothing hand-made souvenirs. In addition, there are a large number of cheap pigments, cloth and many other materials here. They are all bulk goods that are almost impossible to have any extraordinary problems."
Not long after Dorothy responded, Adele continued to write. Looking at the words written by Adele on the page, Dorothy thought silently for a while, looked at the clear sky outside the car window, and then picked up the pen to write again.
"Come to think of it, it seems that the weather in Tivian is a bit good today. It's not cloudy at all. This is not common at this time in the past..."
"Why are you suddenly talking about the weather again? The continuous sunny weather these two days is indeed rare in previous years, but it is because of the intervention of the royal government. Now, everyone in the secret world of Tivian knows that in order to ensure good weather for the Expo, the royal government arranged for military personnel to use wind magic to adjust the weather in the offshore and surrounding areas of Tivian a few days before and after the opening ceremony.
"It is said that it is because these military personnel use the wind to constantly drive away the rain clouds that were supposed to gather over Tivian that Tivian has been able to maintain sunny weather. It is said that in order to ensure the right weather, there are also bigwigs in the military who are involved in controlling the weather."
On the pages of "Wen Hai Hang Zhi", Adele's words appeared one after another. Dorothy glanced at them silently and was silent for a while. Then she raised her head and looked at Thalia in front of her. Thalia noticed Dorothy's eyes and said with some surprise.
"Hey, Sister Maester, what can I do for you?"
"Ms. Fox, can you give me that souvenir next to you?"
Dorothy said this while looking at the small umbrella souvenir that was brought into the carriage next to Thalia. Although Thalia looked confused, she still nodded affirmatively in response.
"This? Here..."
As she spoke, Salia handed the umbrella beside her to Dorothy. Dorothy took it and looked at it, then spread it out and carefully observed the umbrella surface. Finally, she found a striking logo on the outside of the umbrella. It was modified from the national emblem of Pritt and was the logo of the first World Expo.
Looking at the monogram, Dorothy immediately took out a kettle of drinking water from the door of the carriage, opened the lid, and poured the water in the kettle down the opening and directly onto the colorful monogram.
After being washed by clean water, the logo on the umbrella did not show any special changes at first. However, after being washed for a while, the logo on the umbrella actually began to fade. The color of most of the paper attached to it began to gradually dim, and only a small part of the color could still be maintained on the surface of the umbrella under the continuous washing of water.
The remaining colors, after removing the other colors, formed a completely different pattern from the Expo logo. The logo on the umbrella was simplified due to fading, and finally became another logo due to the remaining colors.
It was a logo of a flying insect with its wings spread out amidst crisscrossed curves. The flying insect looked like a moth.
"This... this is..." Looking at the pattern that suddenly appeared on the umbrella, the black cat who had been sitting silently beside him couldn't help but utter unexpected words.
…
Just as the sun was shining brightly in the sky, a shadow was sneaking into the main residence of the Devonshire family in the suburbs on the other side of Tinvian.
Devonshire's own shadow skillfully passed through countless prohibitions and came to a study deep in the ancient house. In the dusty study, Misha, wearing a mask and tied clothes, looked at the books displayed everywhere in front of her, which recorded the past of the owner of the house, and she couldn't help but fall silent.
"Ampelle Devonshire... My ancestor has a close relationship with the secrets hidden in this country. I wonder if I can find any valuable clues here..."
Misha couldn't help but think this in her mind, and then she began to look through the old books around her, checking the contents.
After more than an hour of inspection, Misha did not find anything particularly valuable. She went to the corner of one of her bookshelves and found an old book that was even more dusty than other books. Misha picked it up, wiped it, looked at the cover, and struggled to spell out its retro vocabulary.
The Mystery of the Decline of Howling Gun - The Mad King's 'Great Deeds'
…
Time flies, and soon the daytime has passed. When the new night falls, the remaining crescent moon in the sky has almost disappeared. The moon phase of January is finally reaching the moment of "dark moon". Only tomorrow, the moon will almost officially disappear from the sky over this land.
On an almost moonless night, Tivian was bustling with activity due to the influx of tourists. Countless areas had become streets that never sleep, and an atmosphere of celebration that had never been seen before enveloped the entire city.
And this atmosphere will reach its peak when the night ends and the next day arrives.
After three years of preparation, the World Expo, which the government of the Kingdom of Prit has invested huge amounts of manpower and resources in preparing, is finally going to open today.
In the morning, the dazzling sun was rising from the sea level in the east, gradually climbing up to the sky. Tivian, who had awakened from silence again, now focused his attention on the Plaza of Nations in the east city. Countless people were gathering there. Even though they couldn't see it with their own eyes, many Tivian citizens wanted to experience the opening ceremony up close.
In line with the high enthusiasm of the entire city, the sky of Tivian today is still as clear as the past few days. Citizens who are unaware of the truth attribute this rare phenomenon to the blessing of the Three Saints for this country. Only a few people know that this effort should be attributed to the Pritt military who have been on alert outside Tivian.
In the waters east of Tivian in the morning, while the exciting opening ceremony of the expo was going on in the distant city of Tivian, a large fleet was cruising on the sea in a mighty manner. Under the command of the Pritt naval soldiers in neatly uniforms, a dozen steel warships of different sizes cut through the waves and marched mightily on the blue sea. At this critical moment, these naval fleets were still patrolling to absolutely guarantee the safety of the Tivian waters and the safety of the distant Tivian venue.
In the middle of the cruise fleet, on a magnificent ship with mighty guns, an old man wearing a very senior naval officer uniform, an officer's cap, a lot of white beard, and a resolute face was standing on the bridge, looking at the distant sea. He was wearing frighteningly high honors, and the senior officers around him were all respectful to him.
This is one of Pritt's military giants, the highest leader of the navy, Admiral Spring. At this moment, he is leading the fleet to personally protect the safety of Tivian, where the opening ceremony of the expo is being held. Now is the most critical moment in the past three years and absolutely no room for carelessness, for example, such a heavyweight figure would come in person to take charge.
Of course, what Marshal Spring is defending against at the moment in the open sea is not just the imaginary enemy, but also the bad weather, which can greatly affect the experience of the Expo.
After gazing at the distant sea, Spring slowly raised his head and looked at the sky above his head. What he saw was a wonder that ordinary people could hardly see.
At this moment, the sky above the sea was divided into two halves by an invisible line. On the side of the vast blue sky close to Tivian, there was an endless cloudless sky, while on the side close to the open sea, there were gloomy and dark clouds.
The rumbling thunder rolled in the air, and it seemed that torrential rain might pour down at any time.
These are the rain clouds that Spring used his powerful wind power to drive away. Spring drove these rain clouds away, providing a weather barrier for the successful opening of the Tivian Festival. As long as Spring was there, Tivian would not be affected by bad weather today...
Of course, the premise is that Spring himself does not change his mind...
Just as Spring was looking up at the strange dark clouds in the sky, he suddenly couldn't help but be stunned. Then, eight sharp spikes extended out from the dark pupils in his original spirit eyes. Spring's eyes changed, and the seriousness and solemnity on his face disappeared in an instant, replaced by an evil smile.
When a smile appeared on Spree's lips, the black clouds in the sky that were originally restrained suddenly seemed to have released their restrictions and broke through the invisible blockade. Large amounts of dark clouds crossed the red line in one breath, and amid the exclamations of the soldiers on the warships, they rushed towards Tivian's clear air invasion and pounced into the distance.
"This...what's going on? How did this cloud pass by?!"
"The wind barrier is broken! The wind barrier is broken! The clouds and rain are gone!"
"What's wrong with you, Lord Spring! Please maintain the wind barrier!"
Seeing this scene, the officers around Spring couldn't help but shout in surprise, but Spring was completely unmoved in the face of such a situation. He continued to look at the black clouds invading the sky with an evil smile.
At this moment, the relatively calm sea surface suddenly rolled violently, and turbulent waves rose with the sound of fierce waves.
From the clear sky, an extremely powerful storm suddenly struck, and with a piercing roar, huge waves were blown up, pushing the mighty fleet forward continuously. Under the influence of the huge waves and strong winds, all the ships in the fleet swayed violently for a while, and even experienced sailors found it difficult to stand firm for a while.
"What's wrong with this wind?!"
“This is not normal wind!”
The sudden appearance of the strong wind surprised the officers in the bridge, and Spring's smile disappeared in the turbulence of the wind and waves. He saw that the black cloud layer that Tivian had just pushed forward not far was actually dispersed on a large scale and retreated a lot under the blowing of the strong wind. Seeing this scene, Spring quickly picked up a telescope and checked at high speed in the direction where the wind came from. After a while, he found a small figure in the distant sky.
In the narrow field of view of the telescope, what Spring saw was a petite knight flying tamely in the sky!
㱗Under the bright sunshine, the knight's luxurious and exquisite skirt-style armor exudes a dazzling light. The heroic visor-covering helmet has been covered at this time, and the knight's appearance under the helmet cannot be seen clearly. The wide cloak㱗is constantly blown by the wind behind the knight. In the knight's hand, a lance is tightly grasped,㱗and on the lance, there is a slender triangular flag fluttering in the wind. If you look closely,㱗the flag is printed with the ancient Pritt symbol.
This seems to be an ancient knight from Pritt in the Middle Ages. At this moment, she is hanging alone in the sky above the sea, facing the fleet in front and the oppressive black clouds. It seems that she is facing a vast army and quietly waiting for the beginning of a battle.
