Chapter 1064: Re-visiting Huntington City

~10 min read 1,956 words

When Xia De returned upstairs with the beautiful ring, Luvia said to Xia De very excitedly:

"Oh, I saw that lady from the window! Thirteenth ring! Red Moon Witch! Miss Danister!"

Young girls always admire powerful female sorcerers, and Miss Danister's story and growth experience are indeed legends of the contemporary era.

"She is also leaving Tobesk City. It seems that the ritual location is not here, which is no longer a secret."

Xia De said, handing the ring in his hand to Little Mia, who had the 【Plague Doctor Ring】 and 【Vampire Ring】 strung on her tail. The latter sniffed it and had no interest in alchemical items. Xia De was not surprised; he knew that Little Mia liked relic rings.

"It seems it's really about to start. Oh? What are you holding?"

Luvia asked curiously.

"My Year-End Festival gift. Last time I gave Miss Danister some 'Water of Moon Brilliance'."

Xia De said, and told Luvia the meaning of this ring. The girl with purple eyes was a bit surprised by the relationship between Xia De and Miss Danister. But considering that he had always been able to get along well with all the female sorcerers around him, this didn't seem very surprising.

"Also, Miss Danister told me that the 'yellow moon' the bard is looking for is the Sage-level relic 【Source of Chaos】."

Xia De frowned slightly, as if thinking of something:

"Some time ago, when I was preparing the Year-End Festival gift for you, I saw the introduction of that relic."

"Do you know where that relic is?"

Luvia asked.

Xia De nodded:

"That item, if it comes into contact with real moonlight for a long time, will directly trigger mass chaos symptoms. After Miss Danister's reminder, I realized some things."

He hugged Little Mia and looked at the second room next door. Luvia also thought of the things Xia De had mentioned:

"This room on the second floor of your house... mass suicide incident?"

"Possible."

The two came to the empty room next door together. Xia De looked directly at the wall where the 【Prank Boy】 sprayed ink last time:

"Although the Prank Boy said he likes pranks, since he said he wanted to give me a gift, maybe he really gave me a hint."

Xia De hugged the cat with one hand and pressed his palm against the wall:

"Is there any reaction?"

【You already did this on the first day you opened this room, there is no reaction of elements (Note).】

"Xia De, melt this wall directly!"

Luvia suggested, so Xia De used 【Feilianna's Witch Light】. In that golden light, his palm sank into the wall like a hot fire tong passing through ice. But until Xia De's arm passed through the wall entirely, and his fingertips even passed through the wall to go to the first room, he still touched nothing.

"No."

He withdrew his arm and shook his head, using the breath of time to restore his own wall to its original state:

"That's right, if it were just buried in the wall, the church would definitely not be unable to discover it. The method of hiding 【Source of Chaos】 is impossible to be harder to discover than the hidden wall in the basement, but that relic is definitely not something that can be found by destroying the wall."

Luvia looked at that wall:

"But the possibility here is still very large."

"Why? Is your inspiration reminding you?"

Xia De asked curiously, and Luvia smiled:

"According to the weird legends of this house and the even weirder things that have happened since you lived here, anything is possible."

Xia De really couldn't refute this way of hers:

"It's really a pity, there are no coins in hand, otherwise I could tell you the answer directly."

"Even if there are coins, they cannot be consumed here."

Xia De looked at the wall with regret:

"The focus now is still the event in the Pantanal area. After the matter there is over, we have plenty of time to 'dig out' the relic."

"Meow~"

Little Mia was hugged by Xia De. This cat was very curious about what Xia De was doing now. After all, in that cat's view, it was daytime now, and the moon hadn't come out yet.

Before setting off for Middlehill Castle, Xia De activated Miss Dac Dac Nisi's Red Moon ring and then let his own 【Red Moon】 spirit rune be illuminated by the ring's light, but this could not remove the seal on the spirit rune, indicating that the power of alchemical items made by Ringed Ringed Shushi did not count as "homologous high-level power."

So with disappointment, he found Sister Sister Daifulin in Mid-Hill Fort, and then went to White River Valley Vineyard with the sister through the abandoned tower in the mountains.

The "Snake Heart Hospital" in Huntington City, which had been planned since autumn, was now in semi-operation. Although the medical staff had not been fully equipped, it could already perform childbirth work.

"Snake Heart Hospital" was located in the suburban area of the western part of Huntington City. The sister and Xia De entered the hospital together and sat down in the dean's office on the third floor of the hospital. The servant brought tea, and Xia De looked at the scenery in the suburbs from the window:

"It seems that it is also snowing here recently... Sister, the witches said that they have found a way to go deep into the Great Swamp, will you go with us?"

"I will act with the church."

The sister sat on the sofa, but Xia De knew she was "watching" him.

"The preliminary investigation of the Pantanal area has already had some clues. To be precise, the entire Great Swamp area is part of a certain seal. The 'evil things in Pantanal' we are talking about are just the most powerful one among the evil things sealed in the subspace. There are too many things underground here that we don't know."

"Where is the core of the seal?"

"Under the lighthouse with the fire of the initial fire on the top of the tower on the lake island in the central area of the Great Swamp. That large lake is called 'Pantanal Lake'."

"Lake island..."

Xia De was very sensitive to this kind of special terrain. After all, since the end of autumn, he had climbed countless lake islands:

"Then it is likely there."

He sighed:

"It seems that the Voodoo Society has blocked the inside of the swamp, and it should not be easy to enter in advance."

The initial fire is part of suppressing the seal and cannot be taken away at will. Xia De wanted to personally confirm what the central seal looked like on the lake island. Maybe there would be traces left by predecessors there.

"The Pantanal Voodoo Society probably has already blocked the inside of the swamp, and it should not be easy to enter in advance."

Sister Sister Daifulin's words were always so cold:

"The Pantanal Voodoo Society possesses the way to sign contracts with evil things and use the power of evil things. It has been confirmed that when the stars are in a certain special position, the seal of the Great Swamp area will be in the weakest state. They want to take advantage of this once-in-ten-thousand-year opportunity to release the evil things."

"We always encounter once-in-ten-thousand-year, once-in-a-thousand-year things. This is the epic of the Sixth Era."

Xia De standing by the window said:

"But this is also good. If possible, this time we will recover the fire of the initial fire... Sister, on the premise of recovering the second split fire, do you have the possibility to defeat the evil things in Pantanal?"

He turned and asked, and Sister Sister Daifulin nodded:

"I myself have the power of the Chosen One of Death. The evil things in Pantanal are a kind of weird plant aggregate, which is restrained by fire. If there is the assistance of the church like in the Battle of Mid-Hill Fort, I have the confidence to burn it."

This is quite a remarkable promise. The evil things in Pantanal are far stronger than the amputated undead born in Mid-Hill Fort.

"But the problem is..."

"There is more than one evil thing sealed in the Pantanal area."

Sister Sister Daifulin still had other matters to handle locally, and since Xia De had come to the area after a long absence, he naturally wanted to talk to the vampire Mr. Ba Dun, whom he hadn't seen for half a month; he might have new news about the Pantanal Voodoo Society.

Mr. Bernhard was in the manor today, and was configuring magic potions when Xia De visited. He let Xia De wait in the reception room for a while, and it took a long time for him to walk out of the basement:

"My crucible should be replaced with a new one. The temperature this winter is lower than expected, and my crucible has burned out two."

He complained half-jokingly. The wealthy southern viscount Bernhard did not care about heating costs.

After sitting down, the middle-aged vampire waved his hand to let the servants go out first, and then said to Xia De with a smile:

"Haven't seen you for more than half a month. How have you been in Tobesk recently? Oh, if I remember correctly, Princess Margaret will return to the local area tomorrow. How about it? In Tobesk, what progress have you made with the princess?"

He was just teasing Xia De, but he didn't expect to see the tangled expression on Xia De's face.

The vampire felt slightly surprised:

"You wouldn't be..."

"Just a small breakthrough in the relationship... Don't tell others."

"Even if I tell it out, someone has to believe it... How did you do it... No, don't answer me, I'm just a bit curious, but don't tell me."

Mr. Bernhard waved his hand with a smile, very happy about his friend's visit:

"However, the princess's visit has ended successfully. You came to the local area, do you want to welcome Her Highness tomorrow?"

"It's for another matter."

Xia De pointed to the west:

"The Pantanal Voodoo Society seems to be making a big move. I came here for this, and a few friends of high rings will come to help later. This weekend or early next week, I will go deep into the Great Swamp with them."

"This is quite dangerous. The Pantanal area has never been a place suitable for human survival and activities."

Mr. Bernhard sighed softly, actually thinking about whether he should go out to avoid it for a while:

"However, the Pantanal Voodoo Society has indeed made some things in the city recently. They are collecting a large number of weapon-type relics. For example, when we met last month, we mentioned 【Aikenola's Arrow of Knowledge】."

Mr. Bernhard did not ask Xia De if he had obtained that arrow, but continued:

"This is also related to my clan. If you are interested in this, you can go out with me in a while. Maybe we can meet people from the Pantanal Voodoo Society."

"Of course, no problem."

Xia De nodded:

"It just so happens that there is nothing to do today... Oh, speaking of which, my friend opened a Snake Heart Hospital in the local area. Yes, you have seen it in the Sin Mansion, it is Sister Sister Daifulin. Mr. Bernhard, if you have time, you can let you meet again. Maybe the sister's hospital is willing to purchase red wine from you."

"Snake Heart Hospital? 【Spiritual Cultivation Sect】? Xia De, your friends are really extensive." ===== CHAPTER 1065 =====
