Chapter 2158 Katerina

Under Joan's curious gaze, the mysterious girl rode a cane sideways, and slowly landed from mid-air, with her feet floating on the ground.

The girl was wearing a snow-white fur cloak, and she took off the hood behind her back. A gauze scarf embroidered with a skull pattern covered half of her face, revealing only her tall nose bridge and a pair of lovely dark blue eyes. Her curly long hair hangs over her shoulders, giving Joan an, Emmm... how should I put it, pretending to be noble and glamorous, but actually being a bitch.

The masked girl grabbed the staff hanging in the air, walked slowly to Joan, and nodded slightly.

"Young friend, you don't look like a local, is it convenient to chat?" The girl's slightly hoarse voice sounded extremely sexy.

"I'm not a local, I'm just a traveler who passed by here. Dear lady, what's my name?"

Being accosted by a strange woman, Joan was somewhat embarrassed.

"My name is Katerina, and I am a witch traveling in this area." The girl pointed to her veil and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, but due to the rules of the church, I can't take it off in front of strangers of the opposite sex. Veil, please bear with me if I am rude."

Hearing her speak politely, Joan's impression of the girl she met on the way improved a lot.

At this time Clark came over, stared at Katerina's veil, and asked tentatively, "Are you from the temple?"

Katerina froze for a moment, and asked back, "You also know the Temple of Styx?"

Clark nodded with a smile: "Not only do I know, I have also been to the Temple of Styx!"

Katerina frowned, with a look of doubt in her eyes.

Clark reported his and Joan's names, and found that Katerina didn't respond, and felt very embarrassed. He explained to Joan awkwardly: "Not all Styx witches are stationed in the temple, and there are many that I don't know." I've seen it, it's normal for people not to know me, hehe!"

Joan nodded in understanding.

"Brother Clark, is Ms. Katerina's veil the symbol of the Styx witch?"

"That's right! The witches of the Styx wear veils from morning to night when they go out. The white skull on the black scarf symbolizes death, and half of their face is exposed, representing vitality. In this way, they worship the goddess of the underworld. pay tribute."

After listening to Clark's explanation, Joan immediately thought of Ms. Hull's bony half-body and beautiful half-body image, which indeed resembled a masked witch.

Katerina was listening to the chat between the two, her blue eyes turned slightly, as if she was thinking about something, she suddenly interrupted.

"Is it convenient for the two parties to disclose the destination of this trip?"

"Brother Joan and I are planning to go to the Styx Temple. If you drop by, how about we go together?" Clark said enthusiastically.

Katerina brushed her curly long hair behind her ears, and said flatly, "I'm used to being alone, and I don't plan to return to the temple yet, so I won't accompany you."

"Since it's not on the way, then bye." Clark shrugged indifferently, "Brother Joan, let's go."

Joan nodded, and was about to get on the horse with the reins, but was stopped by Katerina raising her hand.

"Mr. Vader, if I'm not mistaken, you should be a spellcaster, right?"

Joan thought about it, and felt that there was no need to hide it, so she confessed: "I am a mage, Ms. Katerina."

The witch gave a meaningful "Oh", and then asked Joan: "Mr. Mage must be well-informed, but have you ever heard of a creature like a 'witch crow'?"

"Witch crow?" Qiao An frowned and thought, and slowly replied: "I have read about this kind of creature in the literature. It is said that the witch crow looks similar to ordinary crows, but it is very smart and can communicate with people. And born to be good at witchcraft."

"The witch crow is not only good at witchcraft, but also Ms. Hull's favorite pet, so it is revered as a 'holy bird' by the Church of Hull." Clark added after Joann's words.

"It is said that every girl who aspires to become a Styx witch must sign a contract with a witch crow. The witch crow is not only the magic pet of the Styx witch, but also a bridge for the witch to communicate with the goddess of the underworld. It is through the witch crow Get enlightenment from the goddess, and then comprehend more and more powerful witchcraft."

Joan nodded in agreement: "That's what the book said, and it was also mentioned that the witch crow likes a cold and dry environment. Niflheim is one of the main habitats of the witch crow. Unfortunately, we have not seen any during this journey. Even a wild witch crow."

Katerina narrowed her blue eyes and said softly, "The Witch Crow is a very smart magical beast. Most of them live in hidden valleys deep in the snow-capped mountains, and rarely appear in front of humans. It's normal if you don't meet them."

"Ms. Katerina, you are a Styx witch, why don't you have a witch-crow familiar?" Joan asked.

The witch sighed, with a slight sadness on her face.

"You asked about my sore spot, Mr. Mage. Not long ago, I encountered an accident. I managed to save my life, but lost the Witch Crow Demon Pet. I am currently looking for a new Demon Pet."

"Can't you cast a spell to summon a new witch crow?" Joan asked in surprise, "If we mages lose their familiars, we can easily recruit a new one."

"The significance of magic pets to witches is far more important than to you mages, and they cannot be easily replaced."

Katerina sighed, and continued: "Until I get a new familiar, I can't raise my professional level, nor can I comprehend new magic and witchcraft."

"This is too bad!" Clark said sympathetically.

Joan didn't make a sound, and the confusion in his eyes deepened.

How come what Katerina said doesn't match what Aunt Guslin said? Is the Styx Witch special?

"In fact, I have found the valley where the wild witch crows live, and I have made a request to the leader of the witch crows, hoping to find a new partner, but the leader of the witch crows has presented me with a problem." Katerina wanted to speak and then end.

"What problem?" Clark asked with concern.

"The witch crows in the valley invented a brand new witchcraft, which requires at least thirteen crows to perform together, and can temporarily create a teleportation array leading to any place in the world."

"Wait first!" Clark raised his voice, "Ms. Katerina, can the teleportation array you mentioned be used in the Niflheim area?"

"Of course." Katerina nodded and smiled.

"That's weird, wouldn't the teleportation spell be interfered by the magic fog that shrouds Niflheim all the year round?" Clark asked in surprise.

"The witchcraft teleportation array invented by the witch crows, the most amazing thing is that it is not affected by the magic fog, and can accurately send people who step on the teleportation array to their destination." Katerina emphasized her tone, "Actually, the witch crows The reason why this witchcraft was invented was to overcome the interference of the magic fog."
