They were unable to find Mayfair, who had suddenly disappeared, until the celebration was about to begin at night. After some twists and turns, they once again returned to the teahouse where Mayfair had disappeared.
"If we can't find her original home in the village, is it possible that she went to the temple again?"
This was Miss Maid's opinion for everyone's reference.
"Probably not." Dr. Görs shook his head, "But … it's hard to tell since we haven't been in contact with her for a long time. But we don't have to worry too much. According to the time reversal, we'll just go back to the starting point. "
"Once, twice … maybe we can find the answer with confidence in the first few times." But at this moment, Snake suddenly said, "But if you can't change the current situation even after dozens, hundreds, or even hundreds of times of effort, can you still say something like 'at most, it's just going back to square one' … Garth?"
"You mean, you think we won't be able to persist and go crazy in the end?" Doctor Gerth said calmly, "Snakel, you're underestimating yourself, or underestimating us … Let's not talk about others, just Mayfair herself, she must have gone through countless time reversal, but didn't she still persevere?"
Snève sneered, "Don't forget that her so-called persistence is based on the fact that she will clear her memory every time she wakes up … But our memory can be accumulated. Dozens of times … or even a few times, can you be sure that you're in the same 'today'? I'm not underestimating myself. I just don't think highly of myself. That's all. "
Suddenly, the sound of the crowd came from outside. It was the sound of musical instruments. Under the darkening sky, the village of the elf tribe was lit up with bright lights.
The elves on both sides of the road made way for a group of people wearing house clothes with colorful stripes. They were carrying a palanquin and walking slowly.
"This seems to be the group that escorts the new offering?" Tina's eyes focused.
Dr. Görs said casually, "What a poor child. Because Mayfair escaped and tomorrow is the day of offering, she had to be used as a substitute … Wait, do you think it's possible that Mayfair is in the palanquin now?"
"You mean, Miss Mayfair suddenly disappeared to exchange for a new offering?" Boss Luo suddenly asked.
"Look." Dr. Görs sorted out his thoughts, "Although we're not completely familiar with Mayfair, according to these few contacts, she's kind and has a sense of justice. Otherwise, she wouldn't expose the fake God when she knew it would be dangerous. Logically speaking, she should have thought that even if she exposed it, no one would believe her. But in the end, she still risked offending everyone and bravely revealed this matter, which was why she was locked up in the end. What does this mean? This means that she might not have the heart to see an innocent child replace her because of her escape. "
"Even if that's the case, what can we do?" Tina shook her head, "If we stop her and don't let her do anything, we'll have to start again after today."
Dr. Görs said, "Before Mayfair disappeared, I asked around. There's a way to intercept the offering."
"What way?"
"That's to successfully express love to the offering during the ceremony," Dr. Görs said, "There's a legend about this ceremony. If someone expresses love to the offering and can get the blessing of the Goddess Gloria, then not only does she not need to be the offering, she can even get happiness. "
"Goddess Gloria?" Tina said subconsciously, "Is this the name of the God worshiped in the temple?"
"No." Boss Luo shook his head and said, "This is a legend."
He shared the legend of the two goddesses who created the elf tribe that he collected from the elf girls.
"Two goddesses?" Tina was startled and thought about it. Then she smiled and said, "Mr. Luo is really inquiring about information. I thought you might be drowned in the sea of beautiful girls."
"They are more talkative," Boss Luo said casually.
Snève shook his head and said, "Even if there is such a legend, the elves in the tribe are proud of being the offering … I'm afraid that even if someone intends to woo, they will be cursed by everyone, right?"
"That's true." Dr. Görs smiled and said, "So, no one knows whether this legend is true or not. But there is such a rule in the ceremony. If someone wants to express love to the offering at the ceremony, he must defeat the messenger of the temple … Because the person who wants to express love is actually challenging the authority of the God, so he must be punished. Similar things have happened before, and many challengers died in the hands of the messenger. "
"Openly snatching the offering … Even if it's an ancient rule, I'm afraid it will be hated by the elves of the tribe, right?" Tina shook her head and said, "Even if the challenge is successful, and even take away the offering lover, it will destroy the ceremony and the offering. Even if they are together, they can't get the blessing of the villagers?"
"It's not estimated, it's definitely impossible." Dr. Görs smiled and said, "Do you know why Mayfair's parents lived far away from the village?"
"Could it be?"
"That's right." Dr. Görs nodded and said, "That year, Mayfair's mother was an offering, but her father successfully took her back … In the end, because of the rules, there was no offering, and the ceremony was destroyed. Because there was no offering, the tribe was punished in the following years, and almost no crops were harvested. Until the appearance of the next offering, the situation was reversed. But even so, Mayfair's parents didn't like her, so she could only live in a remote place and had little contact with the people of the tribe. Even after Mayfair's parents passed away, she was considered an unlucky child, and was not very popular. "
"But … But even if we know this, how can it help us?" Snève said indifferently, "At best, it can only help us know more about Mayfair's background, which is of no help to the current situation."
"No, it can help us a lot." Dr. Görs smiled mysteriously and said, "Everyone, next, let's participate in this ceremony … and become challengers!"
Challenge … challengers?
Everyone looked at Dr. Görs in surprise, but they didn't know his real intention at this time — But Dr. Görs only said that they would know when the time came.
"You have to believe that we are in the same boat now. What good can I get if I hurt you?" Dr. Görs smiled and said, "I have seen the key to the light!"
"You know how to solve this problem?" Snève couldn't help but change his expression.
Dr. Görs stood up and said, "I said, you will understand when the time comes … Well, I need to prepare for tonight's ceremony. Since we are going to rob the bride, this dress is not good. You also go to prepare, and we will meet at the ceremony. "
After saying that, Doctor Gerls rushed out of the teahouse in a hurry.
"Then I will also go to prepare." Luoqiu also left his seat at this time, "See you two later."
"Ah … Huh?" The maid Tina couldn't help being stunned at this time. Until she saw Luoqiu also walk out of the teahouse, she frowned and looked at Mr. Snève, subconsciously saying, "Mr. Snève, don't you go to prepare?"
Mr. Snève rolled his eyes and said, "Do you think that if I run up to challenge the oracle and say that I want to confess my love to the sacrificial girl … will anyone believe me?"
"Love at dusk is not a rare thing …" The maid covered her mouth and laughed at this time, "How will you know if you don't try? Besides, Mr. Snève is still very rich. "
Snève's face slightly changed, then he heavily snorted, slapped the table and stood up, saying, "See you later. In fact, I don't want to act with you guys from the beginning … Don't forget what you have done to me just because this is the [Chessboard]."
Tina narrowed her eyes and smiled at Snève who finally walked out of the teahouse. Then she slowly ate and drank — at this time, she suddenly heard a familiar voice in her heart.
"Sister Tiff, you finally woke up …"
"I woke up, but they don't know yet. Tina, don't tell them first."
"I know what to do, Sister Tiff."
…
…
"How long do we have to wait here?" Nan Xiaonan squinted at the leader of the servants at this time: Cadillac.
Not long after they passed through the barrier, they stopped. They said they were waiting, but they didn't know what they were waiting for — in this treehouse they found in the forest.
It was strange … the place where this treehouse was located was actually a forbidden area — that was, the forest where [Big Stone] was sealed. It was just that she met [Big Stone] on the other side of the forbidden area, and this place was on the other side.
That barrier was actually filled with a small part of the forbidden area …
"No need to wait." Cadillac suddenly shook his head, "Let's resume our action now … Mr. Varley said that we probably can't wait until today."
"Well, where are we going next?" Nan Xiaonan asked weakly.
"The elf tribe." Cadillac said slowly, "He said we are going to find something."
"Okay." Nan Xiaonan shrugged, but her eyes suddenly glanced at a box in the corner of the treehouse, then she said indifferently, "You go down first, I will come down later."
"Why?" Cadillac frowned.
Nan Xiaonan acted as if she didn't care and said, "Mister, if you don't mind watching a woman solve her physiological needs, then stay and observe."
With that, Nan Xiaonan directly reached out to untie the belt of her pants.
"Hurry up!" Cadillac snorted and jumped down directly.
"Tsk!" Nan Xiaonan said with a disdainful look, "You don't dare to take the benefits given to you, trash!"
With that, her face immediately darkened, and she quickly opened the box in the corner, then took out a thick diary from it.
This witch of the other world's academic school narrowed her eyes at this time, and took out another fragment of the slate, and directly put it on the diary — instantly, the diary suddenly lit up.
It turned into another fragment of the slate … but the appearance was different.
"Although I don't know why Mr. Varley is waiting here, but he helped me find the second fragment … Sure enough, my luck is here, I can't stop it."
She quickly put the two fragments into her arms … When the second fragment was found, she had already sensed the general direction of the new fragment.
"Are you done?!"
"I have a lot of water!" Nan Xiaonan appeared in front of the treehouse at this time, "Aren't I coming down now?"
…
…
After the evening, on the moon … Well, there was no moon in the dimension where the elf tribe was.
But the atmosphere was right.
Those young men and women who were going to be together in the upcoming celebration were now together in pairs … in the alley, under the eaves, or beside the small bridge.
Boss Luo, who was enchanted by the spell of disguise, now walked to the back of an abandoned house.
The back was connected to the stream that ran through the village … The waterwheel house beside the stream was the destination of Boss Luo's trip — which was the place indicated by the note tied to the only intact flower.
There was no one around, only the sound of flowing water and the sound of the waterwheel turning … and the sound of knocking on the door.
Boss Luo actually just knocked once, and the door of the waterwheel house squeaked and slowly opened.
A light came in from the small window, which was the light of the village opposite the stream. It was so weak that only a vague figure could be vaguely seen.
"You really came." The vague figure walked out a little, but it was still vague, but the voice was very clear.
Luoqiu smiled slightly, "There is only one intact flower left … Such an obvious hint, I think if I don't come, it will be disappointing."
"Don't worry about the things here." The vague figure said faintly, "No matter how many times you come, the result is the same. This is a nightmare that won't wake up and there won't be a tomorrow. Anyway, you came here just to take one thing … Take it, and then go back to the treehouse. Tomorrow will come naturally. "
As the vague figure said, she threw out something … a box with something in it — it was now in Boss Luo's hand.
Boss Luo opened the box and took a look, then closed it, "I am curious about one thing … Do you like sweets?"
"Yes." The vague figure said indifferently.
"I see …" Boss Luo said slowly, "We meet again, Miss Mayfair who doesn't like sweets … To be exact, you remember me. Last time when you woke up, you told me that you don't like sweets and hate humans."
The blurry figure suddenly became clear … She walked closer, and the light from afar shone on her body. She was wearing the majestic uniform of the Temple Guards, which made her look particularly cold.
