The red moon returns

Chapter 482 Target, Silver Gate
Milt's house is still as distinctive as ever. Starting from the front door, they try to avoid angles less than 120 degrees.

Before they knew about the Hound of Tindalos, Lynch and Natalie just thought this family was strange. But after listening to the detailed introduction of the Yis people and looking at the house, the three of them felt creepy.

Especially those positions where sharp angles had to exist, they were like sharp blades in the eyes of the three people, as if some strange blue mist might emerge from them at any time and condense into an incomprehensible strange existence.

"Please rest assured, guests, there will be no danger." Ever since Lynch and Natalie stood up for Milt's family last time, the loyal old housekeeper has been very good to the two. As soon as he saw the three people's gaze, he had guessed what they were thinking and took the initiative to explain, "Those things will only appear around the two masters. When the masters are in the safe house, it is safe outside. In fact, the yard does not need to be built like this, but the young lady sometimes comes out to move around and meet guests, and occasionally there will be accidents that will make the young lady be discovered by those things. This kind of yard can ensure that those things only appear from a few fixed locations, so that the young lady has enough time to react."

"Where's her brother?"

"I haven't seen the young master for several years." The housekeeper sighed, his face gloomy, "The young master's condition is much more serious than the young lady's. He can't leave the safe house for a moment. So the Milt family is very grateful to you for what happened last time. If those mobs rush in to destroy it, the young lady may still be able to support it, but I'm afraid the young master..."

"This is the price of playing with time, Mr. Lynch Leviev, ah, no, it should be Sir Lynch Leviev."

In front of the mansion, Miss Skye Milt, wearing a loose white dress, knelt slightly with a calm smile on her face as she faced the group of people.

"Are you okay standing outside like this?" Perhaps because she and Lynch had seen too many cultists recently, Natalie was no longer so wary of Ms. Skye. She was as calm as if she had seen an ordinary friend. "It's still dangerous."

"Thanks for your concern, officer. Also, now is a more appropriate time to say congratulations than last time."

"What the hell, I don't understand." Natalie stammered, "Now let's talk about your problem."

"Pfft, just let go of Sir Sir's arm. He is about to cry out loud, and the Countess is about to cry too." Ms. Skye chuckled and shook her head, "Don't worry, my friend, we are used to this kind of life. Last time I said that I can use some method to confuse those crazy trackers for a short period of time so that they can't find my specific location on the timeline. Of course, the time cannot be too long, and there can't be too many hounds staring at me, otherwise it won't work. That's what my brother is like. You helped my family so much last time, and my brother wanted to thank you in person, but he's not in a good state recently. If he comes out, the yard may not be able to accommodate him."

"Why do we let you take such a big risk?" Lin Qi asked puzzledly, "Can't we go into the safe house to see you?"

"You can actually do that, as long as you are willing to take off all your clothes and belongings, but I am not willing to do that." Ms. Skye explained, "Hounds cannot jump on human bodies, otherwise the safe house will not be able to escape the hounds' pursuit, but clothes are not so lucky. Even if you wear them on your body, they will become the hounds' jumping targets, so we basically don't see each other."

Lin Qi nodded and sighed that video calls were a very civilized thing.

"Please come in and take a seat, along with this alien lady from the future or the past."

The three of them didn't react at first, but suddenly they all turned their heads to look at the Yis people.

Female? Yes, this body is borrowed. But how can a cone with tentacles and morning glory distinguish between male and female?

Putting aside the unsolved mysteries of this world, the group returned to the living room they had visited before. Compared with the last time, the living room had changed slightly. Several pieces of furniture and a lot of porcelain were replaced with new ones. This made the three of them not want to know what had happened here recently.

Ms. Skye just smiled awkwardly. "Occasionally there are some small accidents, but they are not worth mentioning. By the way, if you see a hound, do not try to attack it, no matter what happens. Once you try to attack it, it means you have established a connection with it, and it will entangle you to death."

As she spoke, Ms. Skye took out a box similar to a ring box from the glass cabinet and placed it in front of Lynch.

"You are the only one who can enter the River of Time. No one else can follow you."

Officer Natalie became nervous first and asked urgently, "Why?"

"It's hard to let someone without time ability see the River of Time, let alone enter it. Time is too tight. I only found one set of materials. Moreover, I only found the Silver Key that belongs to Lin Qi. People without the Silver Key will be lost in the torrent of time forever even if they enter the River of Time, and can never return to the present. So I'm sorry, but you can only be bystanders." Although they were mentally prepared, the two ladies were still quite disappointed. Lin Qi was very happy, at least the two girls didn't have to take risks with him. But he didn't dare to smile, and opened the box in front of him with a look of regret.

"Hmm? This thing is a key?"

There was a cigarette in the box, ordinary and unremarkable, but there was a faint and strange attraction coming from the cigarette, as if it wanted to suck in all the spirit of a person.

"The Silver Key is not a key, and the Silver Gate is not a gate. These two names are just symbolic descriptions of them. In fact, the so-called Silver Gate is just a barrier that isolates the island from time. The great One of All Things, Tavier Arthur Umr, is waiting behind the barrier, guarding the second gate."

"There's another door?"

"Yes, the door contains the truth of the universe and all the laws of the world. It is the door of truth."

Hiss...goose bumps have already crawled up Lynch's back.

"No one knows where the Silver Gate is. It may appear in the past, present, or future. It may appear at any point in the long river of time. The so-called Silver Key is the mark that guides people to find the Silver Gate and pass through that barrier."

Lin Qi sighed softly and carefully picked up the cigarette: "So, this is the sign that guides me?"

"No, it's just a cigarette." Ms. Skye said faintly, "The Silver Key hasn't melted in yet."

Lynch wanted to hit someone after hearing that.

"Shhh."

Ms. Skye raised her finger to silence her, took the cigarette with a dazed look, and said softly:
"Raquette fungus, the most beautiful mushroom in the ancient continent, with a purple cap dotted with bright red dots, and a handle as white as snow and crystal clear. This is made from the hyphae of the Raquette mushroom mixed with the filaments of the Dream Soul Flower. It has a fragrant smell and tastes very good."

"Um..." Lynch leaned back, "What about the effect? ​​Why do I feel this thing is so dangerous?"

"Don't worry, it's just a hallucinogen. It's safe. It will only make your soul leave your body."

“Do you have any misunderstanding about the word safety?”

"At least you won't die on the spot." Ms. Skye put the cigarette into Lynch's mouth and lit it. "When you die, I will send the Silver Key into your soul, and then you will naturally know what to do."

"You just used the word death yourself, right? No, I want to take it back."

Having said that, Lynch still took a deep breath.

The next moment, colorful light bloomed before my eyes.
