A dark shadow flew across the sky above the Devil's Sea.
Under the bright sunlight, they could see that the shadow was a woman with wings. It was none other than Swan.
"Lady Swan, why don't you just hold onto me?" Helen, who was sitting on Swan's back, said. Her face was a little red.
"What's wrong? You don't feel comfortable on my back? " Swan turned around and smiled at Helen. "Like I said, you can just call me Swan."
"It's not that. It's just …" Uncomfortable.
Swan suddenly shushed Helen. "Alright, we're here. Let's go down first."
Helen was stunned. She stretched her head out and looked down. Sure enough, she saw an island full of flowers. She glanced at it curiously. The Limpet had never passed by this place before, so this was the first time she saw the Summerdew Ridge in person.
The island wasn't big, but it was full of flowers. The building was hidden among the flowers and leaves, giving off a different kind of charm.
"This is the Summerdew Ridge." Swan slowly landed on a small harbor outside the island. "I'll take you to Lady Payne to confirm your talent. Remember, you have to be respectful to everyone except me. Especially Lady Payne and Lady Summerdew."
Helen nodded. "I understand."
While Swan was explaining the rules of the Summerdew Ridge to Helen, a group of people suddenly appeared from a small path in the distance. The leader of the group was a graceful woman in a black dress. However, her face was covered with scars and she looked a little horrifying.
Swan quickly pulled Helen to her knees. "Good afternoon, Mrs. Payne." "Good afternoon.
Mrs. Payne walked over and glanced at Swan and Helen. "So this is the talent you brought back?" Mrs. Payne asked, nodding slightly. "Is this the talent you brought back?"
Swan nodded in acknowledgment.
"It seems you value her a lot. You even gave her the Potion of Austere Night that master gave you." Lady Payne's nose twitched. She could smell the strong scent of potion on Helen.
"Helen saved my life once. This is my way of repaying her."
Lady Payne didn't say anything else. She walked past Swan and headed to the harbor. The apprentices behind her quickly followed.
Swan stood up and looked in the direction where Madam Payne was heading with a puzzled expression. She thought for a moment and pulled over an apprentice she was familiar with. She quietly leaned over and asked, "Did something happen today? Why is Lady Payne here? What are you going to do? "
"A VIP is coming. Lady Payne brought us here to greet him."
"VIP?" Swan asked. "Who is it?"
"I'm not sure. But I heard that he's from the Valley of Storm."
Valley of Storm? Swan remembered there was a guest from the Valley of Storm. Why is there another one?
Just as Swan was wondering what was going on, a gust of wind blew past her. She turned around abruptly and saw that there was another person beside Madam Pei in the distance. It was the guest who had stayed at Summerdew Ridge.
At the same time, Swan also noticed that a figure was flying toward them from afar.
Swan noticed that it was Madam Pei and immediately went to greet her. It was obvious that they were here to greet this guest. But who could it be?
"It's been a long time since we last met. You look like a completely different person. You're much cleaner than before." Madam Pei looked at the woman who had landed at the port, and a trace of nostalgia flashed across her face.
The woman in front of him was wearing a strange smiley mask. Her red hair was extremely flamboyant. Coupled with the black leather jacket that was covered with rivets, she gave off a neat and domineering feeling.
"Lady Payne, it's been a hundred years since we last met in the Dwarven Graveyard Plane. You don't look any different. "
Lady Payne took out a folding fan and covered half of her face. She laughed. "My face is ruined, but Irisa doesn't see any difference in me?"
Eliza said faintly, "Appearance is never within my consideration."
"Tsk, tsk. Look at you. You think you're a man just because you're wearing a mask? "
"I don't see any difference between a man and a woman." Irisa paused. "Besides, if Lady Payne wants to restore your appearance, you can do it in the blink of an eye."
Irisa and Lady Payne only talked for a short while. Lady Payne then brought her to the island. Lady Payne wanted to arrange a room for her, but Irisa refused. "No need. I still have some things to do in the southern region. I'm just here to talk to Redhead. I'll be leaving soon. There's no need to arrange a room for me. "
Mrs. Payne glanced at Eliza and then looked at the man on the other side who maintained an unapproachable attitude. She nodded: "Alright then."
Lady Payne didn't stay any longer. She left a few words of greetings and returned to her room.
After Madam Payne left, only Eliza and the red-haired man with a cold face were left.
"Come with me." After the man finished speaking, he brought Eliza directly into a cramped space that was chaotic from top to bottom.
Eliza showed that she was not unfamiliar with this strange space at all. She familiarly took out a chair from a corner and lazily sat on it. As she opened and closed, she revealed her white and slender thighs.
The red-haired man's face darkened. "What happened to your manners, Irisa? Don't forget that you're a woman. "
Irisa rolled her eyes when she saw her thighs. "I thought you'd become more open after you got together with Eureka. Why do I feel like you're still as old-fashioned as ever? "
"I'm not in a relationship with Eureka. We just share common interests."
"Do you think I'll believe your bullshit?" Eliza angrily said, "When you say this, can you not take care of your tie? Can you not look around?"
The red-haired man remained silent for a while. "It's fine if you don't believe me."
"Fine, I'll believe you. You're just in love with someone else, aren't you? Why else would you ask me to help you spread the fake Crimson Crown all over the world? " Eliza raised an eyebrow. "If the outside world knows that the famous Thewis betrayed Goman King and is working with the Tainted Blood Shadow Thorn, I bet the gossip magazines will write about it from this year to next year."
The red-haired man was Thewis. Not only was he a wizard from Hurricane Canyon, but he was also Irisa's brother and sister.
Thewis was too lazy to pay attention to Eliza's nonsense. Outsiders could only speculate about what had happened, but he was very clear about it.
"How's the news from Goman King coming along?" Thewis asked.
As soon as they got down to business, Eliza put away her teasing expression and told them about Goman King's current situation.
"Goman King seems calm now, but as you know, the loss of the Crimson Crown has stirred up a storm in the southern wizarding region."
"… He might be suspicious of you. I heard that he has sent other wizards to the Marginalized Island. You'd better be prepared."
After Eliza told him all the information she got, Thewis was silent for a while as he digested Eliza's words. After a while, he replied, "Do you know who Goman King sent?"
"I don't know." Irisa shrugged. Suddenly, she thought of something and whispered to Thewis, "But I have a piece of news that might be useful to you."
"News? What news?"
"This is a piece of news that I received by accident. There's a Blood Retrace magic array engraved on the Crimson Crown. This magic array can connect the heart's blood to an object, so the user can sense its exact location no matter where it is. That's why Goman King was able to pinpoint Eureka's exact location every time. "
Irisa paused for a second and continued, "But, you know, Goman King won't let this happen. With Goman King's personality, there was no way he would allow his blood and sweat to be lost. So, I guessed that the blood and sweat on the Crimson Crown wasn't his. It might have been the previous Goman King. The reason he can sense it is because of the blood connection. "
Thewis frowned. "What do you mean?"
"Take this. It might be able to lure Goman King." Irisa took out two items.
One was a fake Crimson Crown, and the other was a bottle with a few drops of blood inside.
Thewis took it and carefully examined the fake Crimson Crown. His eyes flashed with surprise. "This fake looks very real, but … why are you giving it to me?"
Eliza said, "I know you want me to release the fake to distract Goman King, but as I said, Goman King can sense the location of the real Scarlet Crown. Did you release the fake?"
"Then why are you giving it to me?"
"This one is different. There's a Blood Retrace magic array engraved on it. The bottle I gave you contains the heart's blood of the Goman Royal Family. If Goman King senses the Crimson Crown through his blood, you might be able to use it to lure him. " After a pause, Eliza suddenly showed a regretful expression, "Originally, I wanted the creator to give it mystical characteristics and package it into the real Blood Crown. At that time, there will be more room for manipulation, and it can even completely solve the future problems … But mystical characteristics are not easy to give."
After hearing Eliza's words, Thewis began to consider the feasibility of this matter.
"Are you sure there's a Blood Retrace magic array engraved on the Crimson Crown?" Thewis asked.
"I'm sure. The creator is not a master alchemist, but in some aspects, especially enchantment alchemy, he's better than most master alchemists," Thewis said.
Thewis pondered. If what Eliza said was true, it seemed that there was indeed room for manipulation.
"Now that we know there's a Blood Retrace magic array on the Crimson Crown, can we erase the heart's blood connection?" Thewis asked.
Irisa paused for a second and then said awkwardly, "Oh, I forgot to ask."
Thewis stared at Irisa for a while and sighed. "I'll keep these two items for now. I'll try them out when I get back to the Old Earth. As for you, go back and ask the creator about it. "
Thewis suddenly asked, "By the way, it's rare to see you praise an alchemist like this. Who's the creator?"
