Chapter 1076

The water pot in the room was bubbling on the small stove built by Priest August himself. The priest got up and took the water pot down, and shook his head:

"Xia De, what do you treat angels as?

Although I don't know why that Wisdom Angel would let its own bloodline power be passed down to humans, angels are not villainous characters, you think too much. Moreover, even if the other party really descended because of this matter, you don't have to worry. You only need to ask one question, and any Wisdom Angel will not make things difficult for you."

"What question?"

Xia De asked curiously.

"If it weren't in the church of the Lord, I wouldn't dare to discuss this kind of topic easily."

The priest was mysterious, Xia De knew that the matter he was about to say must be related to the ancient gods.

"The ancient god 【Secret Keeper】 of knowledge and wisdom is the guardian of all knowledge and wisdom. The ancient god once let his own angel visit the mystery of death in the true death in the First Era, but was blocked by the Death-Announcer."

This sounded like a story from the First Era, but Xia De knew that this actually represented that 【Secret Keeper】 once tried to infect the death authority of the 【Ancient God of Death】, but failed.

The thirteen ancient gods have never been completely harmonious. The authority and power possessed by the ancient gods are far from what the old gods can compare to, which has caused the overlap of power. For example, 【Silver Moon Sage】 dyed death because of the meaning of "Underworld Moon", but the dispute between this ancient god and the 【Ancient God of Death】 is not particularly obvious.

"Thinking about it this way, the contradiction between the ancient god 【Silver Moon Sage】 and the ancient god 【Secret Keeper】 should be greater."

Xia De thought to himself. After all, the old god 【Gray-Robed Sage】 in the Kadis Library of the Death Valley said that his power of "Library Guardian" is related to 【Silver Moon Sage】, and the ancient god of the moon also has the power of "Recorder", which looks like it overlaps a lot with 【Secret Keeper】.

Priest August naturally didn't know what Xia De was thinking. He finished telling the secret of the First Era softly, and after praying with Xia De to 【Mr. Dawn】 for a while, he continued to inform Xia De of the question to ask when facing the Wisdom Angel:

"What is the mystery of death. You only need to ask this question and hold your round badge, and the Wisdom Angel will not maliciously make things difficult for you."

Of course, this has no effect on tests like the "Lake Goddess" trial, and even if said, Xia De believes it will make the difficulty of the trial even greater.

However, "Lake Goddess" Cherub is the first Wisdom Angel, not the bloodline source of Leijinsi Miss Pulin's family, otherwise it would be even easier to deal with Miss Pulin's angelic bloodline power.

"Besides the angel matter, priest, I actually have another important matter. I think you still remember the adventure you once mentioned with Luweiya, that is..."

Xia De lowered his voice slightly:

"You together contained an unknowable (0-level) artifact - 【Time of Cycle】, the appearance is an hourglass filled with silver fine sand, which will trigger a regional time cycle, and with the increase in the number of cycles, the affected area of the time cycle will become larger and larger. I remember you said that you suppressed this artifact under the feet of the Dawn Church statue. (Chapter 512)"

"Yes, why mention this?"

The priest asked in confusion, Xia De hesitated:

"I want to borrow this artifact, no, no, not now. I recently got a very good ritual that can be used to sublimate my own time-related magic. But the ritual requires the use of a high-level time-related artifact as the core part of the ritual, and the purer the better. You know, time-related artifacts themselves are quite rare, and high-level time-related artifacts are even more... for us correspondence Ringed Ringed Shushi..."

He showed an embarrassed smile, and the priest nodded:

"If it's only for a few hours, it should be no problem, but I need to tell Annette, after all, it is..."

"Don't tell her yet!"

Xia De immediately stopped him:

"I don't mean to hide it from her, but wait until I finish the ritual before saying it. This ritual has a certain degree of danger. Yes, it's just a certain degree of danger, I'm worried she won't agree to me doing this. Rest assured, I know what I'm doing."

The priest said the same thing as the doctor:

"If it weren't for knowing your relationship with her, and trusting your character, I wouldn't... That's fine, tell me in advance which day you need to use it. I need to emphasize again that it is an unknowable artifact, one of the most dangerous items in the material world. The entire 【Life and Death Gap】 combined is only at the same level as that hourglass."

Priest August picked up the teacup, sighing with some emotion:

"How terrible 【Life and Death Gap】 is, you and I have already experienced it in the autumn."

(Duo Luo Qian is rushing the manuscript...)

For the whole Monday, Xia De was preparing for the trip to go deep into the Pantanal Great Swamp.

If this action fails, the impact should not be as serious as in Mid-Hill Fort, after all, the root of this time is in the depths of the Great Swamp where no one goes, even if it spreads out, the population covered is far less than in the autumn in Mid-Hill Fort.

But in terms of the difficulty of the action, the situation this time is more severe than the last time, after all, the Church had been preparing for the sealing ritual for several years in advance in Mid-Hill Fort.

The continuous heavy snow weather still did not subside. Luweiya did not leave No. 6 St. Deran Square on Monday night, so when Miss Xierweiya appeared from the basement on Tuesday morning, the young witch first saw the female diviner who was helping Xia De organize his luggage in the living room, rather than Xia De who was checking the travel item list in the study.

"Miss Xierweiya? What happened in Huntington?"

Seeing the big witch appear, Xia De immediately poked his head out from the study and asked.

The witch with black shoulder-length hair shook her head slightly:

"Last night, a very strong earthquake occurred inside the Great Swamp, and the surrounding areas of the swamp could feel it. The Church has notified Sister Sister Daifulin that the stars running to the correct trajectory is Wednesday night or Thursday morning. Miss Xiwei Afurola has also arrived in Huntington City. Miss Miss Jia Lin Na asked me to tell you to spend the night in Huntington tonight. Tomorrow, which is Wednesday noon, we will set off into the Great Swamp."

"No problem."

Xia De nodded, and went to look at Luweiya. The purple-eyed girl was holding a pocket watch with two 【Youth-Preserving Leaves】 inside, biting her lower lip, and the worry in her expression was even more obvious.

During the day, he packed the luggage that needed to be taken to Huntington City. Before setting off in the evening, Xia De took out the Sage-level artifact 【Source of Chaos】 he just got. Although this item that can enhance moon magic is unusually dangerous, it will definitely play a role in the upcoming war.

In order to limit the spontaneous chaotic effect produced by 【Source of Chaos】 because it had been shining moonlight through the wall for hundreds of years at St. Deran Square, Luweiya helped Xia De make a box that could suppress most powers related to "starry sky" and "moon", which was used to contain the artifact.

And Xia De definitely wouldn't take Little Mia to Huntington this time. After all, although this matter didn't involve evil gods, the danger would not be less than the last time. During Xia De's absence, Luweiya would stay here to help take care of the cat. Xia De had already prepared cat food. Little Mia and Luweiya were very familiar, so there was no need to worry that it would be disobedient.

Artifacts like 【Higgs Dragon Head Stone】, "Little Mia Four Rings", 【Night Watcher】, 【Aikenola's Arrow of Knowledge】, 【Youth-Preserving Leaves】 that were useful or small in volume definitely had to be brought. And 【Gun of Kindness】 and 【God's Gift Box】 were left at home.

Choosing the artifacts to carry was not difficult. Luweiya helped Xia De prepare silently. At five o'clock in the afternoon, Tifa also came to St. Deran Square. Miss Miss Jia Lin Na had contact information with the maid lady, so she also knew that Xia De would go to Huntington City tonight, and came to see him off specially.

Because she had to act as the lady-in-waiting for the "bedridden" Duchess recently to solve the troubles in official business, Tifa rarely wore the black and white maid long skirt today.

"Then, I'm ready to set off."

In front of the hidden wall in the basement, Xia De, who was wearing a bloated coat and carrying 【Night Watcher】 on his back, said to Luweiya and Tifa.

"Be careful with everything, I'll wait for you to come back for the year-end festival."

Today is the 24th day of the Sleeping Month, and there is only one week left until the year-end festival. If this blizzard doesn't stop in time, many celebration activities in the city will be delayed because of this.

Luweiya hugged Xia De carefully. The cat she was holding probably understood that Xia De was going on a long trip, looking at him unhappily, with an expression of being about to be depressed:

"I conducted a divination last night, although it may not be useful, maybe there will be something under the lighthouse on the lake island that can help you."

The purple-eyed girl exhorted, gently letting go of Xia De, the worry in her eyes almost turned into substance.

"Mr. Hamilton, please convey my greetings to the lady."

Tifa's farewell words seemed much more normal. She knew the relationship between Xia De and Luweiya, so she left more time for Xia De and Luweiya to talk.

"Before you go, let's do one more divination. Divinate what will be beneficial to you in the upcoming battle."

The female diviner handed the divination cards to Xia De after hurriedly cutting the cards.

"The one at the bottom."

Xia De said, and Luweiya pulled out the one at the bottom:

"Book."

She looked at the card face of the divination card, and then looked at Xia De.

"Then, what is the meaning of this divination card?"

"Accumulation, wisdom, harvest."

Luweiya said, pushing Xia De gently:

"Go quickly."

Xia De nodded and waved goodbye to the two girls:

"Then, I'm off."

He walked into the passage behind the hidden wall, and the three pairs of eyes watching him disappear were all filled with a sadness that others couldn't describe.

"Mr. Hamilton will be fine, he has always been very reliable."

When others were present, Tifa never called Xia De by his name directly.

Luweiya nodded and reached out to take back her cat from Tifa's arms:

"Every time I watch him go out on adventures, but I can't help, I feel that I..."

The maid lady looked at her with a smile:

"You are still waiting for him here, isn't that the gravity that makes him come back?"

The purple-eyed girl looked at her in surprise, and it took a long while to sigh:

"Fortunately... the first one to meet Xia De was not you."

Tifa still had a smile on her face.
