Chapter 1171: The Origin of

Miss Danister's condition was quite good, so Xia De tried hard to support her and took two steps back. The library scene in the starry sea was covered by the surging thick fog. Continuing to take two steps back, they walked out of the double-opening silver metal gate.

White fog surged from the door crack, wrapping that gate. After the fog dispersed, the gate summoned by the ritual also disappeared. The wordless black book and the yellow moon stone slab fell to the floor, and the gems, diamonds, and precious materials that made up the ritual all turned into powder.

The ritual worth 40,000 pounds ended completely like this. Xia De believed that although Miss Danister was very rich, it was absolutely impossible to perform this ritual again at will. And although Xia De obtained very important information through the ritual, if he had 40,000 pounds, he would also be willing to spend this money to obtain this information.

Miss Danister's condition still looked very good. Xia De supported her back to the first room, let her sit on the sofa, and then went to the study to get a small bottle of holy water. After the librarian lady recovered a bit, she drank hot tea with holy water concentrate added.

Miss Danister also carried potions herself. She drank a bitter brown potion with a painful face, then drank a few sips of hot tea, and her face finally had some blood color. She held the teacup, looking at Xia De who had a cat lying on his lap:

"Sorry, let you see that scene just now."

"It's okay, peeking at knowledge always comes with a price, not to mention the stories recorded by that moon."

He said while touching the cat:

"You look still good, do you want to rest here tonight? My house is still very big, I can arrange a guest room."

Miss Danister showed a smile, but shook her head slightly:

"This trip must be reported to the Academy, and I must rush back before dawn. Xia De, I'm curious, why are you so persistent in looking for the library?"

"This is your secret, I won't ask."

Xia De shook his head. The ritual that Miss Danister spent 40,000 pounds to complete was free for him to participate in. What he got was enough, he wouldn't pry into others' secrets.

"Well... I have never told anyone else about this. Even Principal Pigman only vaguely guessed my purpose... it has to do with my teacher."

Steam rose from the teacup between her hands, and the firelight from the gas lamp and fireplace illuminated the two. This atmosphere of listening to stories in the middle of a winter night was not bad. Xia De touched little Mia and asked hesitantly:

"Your predecessor as librarian?"

"Yes. Although we are both thirteenth-ring sorcerers, my teacher was more talented than me and more outstanding than me. My teacher was also proficient in the power of the moon, but unlike me, her core spirit rune was Silver Moon."

She showed a quite nostalgic expression:

"She disappeared a long time ago. The second year after I took over as librarian, she disappeared completely after a trip out. I don't know what she did. My teacher had said a long time ago that she wanted to meet the Old God of the Silver Moon—【Silver Moon Sage】."

"Hmm?"

"Although the school opens information about the thirteen Old Gods to sorcerers above the high ring, looking at your expression, I know you don't know this god."

Miss Danister showed a reluctant smile.

"I..."

Xia De looked shocked, even doubting if he had heard the content correctly: "But the Old Gods have already left, right? Your teacher, do you know where the Old Gods are sleeping?"

"Of course I know, she was a mortal after all." Miss Danister bit her lip:

"But the departure of the Old Gods, more or less, left some traces in the material world. My teacher always believed that 【Silver Moon Sage】, that god of the moon, night, and starry sky, left behind a saintly shell or something of equal weight that He had used in the material world."

Xia De looked at her in shock. He had originally thought that his memory of this Friday many years later would only be fighting a puppet while riding a cat.

"My teacher studied these things a long time ago, and after handing over the identity of the librarian to me, she went out to find it. I don't know where she ended up. Maybe the legendary Star Realm, maybe the depths of the collapsed ruins of the high tower on Mount Kalas, maybe some hidden corner of the material world..."

She looked at Xia De:

"In order to continue my teacher's research and also to find my teacher's whereabouts, I inherited all her research materials and walked step by step to today."

"Then, did you see the answer just now? Where exactly did your teacher go?"

Xia De asked immediately, but Miss Danister shook her head slightly: "Prophecies, divination, and other signs all indicate that my teacher has already died. I can accept this point. The content in that book just now... was something I could bear. I did see the answer, but I only saw that she went to the high tower ruins of Mount Kalas and found some things... I saw the content behind, but my body forced me to forget those contents. Fortunately, you were by my side, otherwise, it would be a very dangerous behavior to faint in the 【Silver Moon Library】."

"Mount Kalas..."

Xia De frowned slightly. The appearance of this name in his memory only happened twice, and the first time he had just arrived in this world. The terrified Outsider desperately memorized everything he saw, so the impression was quite deep:

"Last summer, when my uncle Sparrow the detective died, I saw the news in a crumpled newspaper about the investigation report of the collapse of the high tower on Mount Kalas (Chapter 4). And, a professor friend of mine said that the Mount Kalas region has primitive moon-worship traditions (Chapter 927)."

"Yes, the collapse of the high tower ruins on Mount Kalas happened in the spring of last year. The ancient moon-worship cult had built magnificent churches and sacrificial places there, but now there is not much left. The high tower collapsed in the spring, and the church investigated for several months to determine the problem before letting ordinary people intervene to write and publish the investigation report in the newspaper. I originally thought it was just an ordinary collapse..."

The steam from the hot tea smoked Miss Danister's cheeks, and blood color was surging back:

"Last time in Tobesk, I met the vice president of the illegal organization 【Reason Society】. She personally admitted to me that the Reason Society had investigated the high tower ruins of Mount Kalas (Chapter 1081). The church caught sorcerers studying the resurrection of the dead locally in the autumn of last year (Chapter 440), and thus learned that the collapse of the high tower was inseparable from them (Chapter 564). Moreover, the original owner of the Relic 【Source of Chaos】 in my hand, the astrologer Mr. Euclid, had also been to the ancient high tower of Mount Kalas. The Reason Society found his notebook there and learned that the 【Source of Chaos】 that the bard Keeper wanted to obtain was in Tobesk City."

Xia De immediately thought of what Mr. Euclid said in the letter left in the secret compartment—"Planning to find the legendary high tower, the high tower that buries the moon (Chapter 1088)." Looking at it now, after Mr. Euclid left No. 6 St. Deran Square, he likely went to the ancient high tower located on Mount Kalas.

Because the letter left by Mr. Euclid also mentioned news about the "Chosen One of the Moon"—who would stay overnight at No. 6 St. Deran Square, Xia De didn't tell Miss Danister about the existence of that letter, but the clues were already very clear:

"Miss Danister, next step, investigate the collapsed high tower ruins?"

"Yes, it would be best to learn from the Reason Society what exactly happened to that high tower in the spring."

The female sorcerer nodded. She saw that Xia De was also very interested in this and believed that he also wanted to know the secret of the Old God 【Silver Moon Sage】:

"I admit that as a student, just like inheriting my teacher's research, if I get the final result of this investigation, then I will inherit it. So, if there is new news, I will tell you."

She said softly, looking like her spirit had recovered well:

"Just now when you manifested your Destiny Ring, I noticed that your fifth ring has already added the first spirit rune. Not bad. If you can be promoted to a high ring soon, maybe I can take you on adventures and investigations. Do you need to associate this spirit rune with the Language of Ascension?" She asked.

Xia De called out his own Destiny Ring:

"Whisper spirit rune 【Puppet】. Although I have seen the Language of Ascension provided by the Academy, I don't think it's suitable even if it can be associated with 【Silver Moon】. Let's wait."

Miss Danister finished that cup of tea and left. Xia De

sent her to the door, watching her figure "melt"

into the shadows by the street. The fog in the city tonight was very light, and the moonlight illuminated Xia De's side face. At this moment, Xia De, with half of his face in the shadows, had no expression.

For him, perhaps the most important information tonight was not the secret of "Crazy Earth." He thought of something even more important: "The high tower ruins of Mount Kalas, collapsed in the spring of 1853... Joey Barton used 【Major Arcana · Death】 for divination, saying that he should have died in the collapsed high tower at the beginning of 1853 (Chapter 676), and it was also the beginning of spring, the same time point... Before the Battle of Pantanal, the keeper of the lighthouse on the heart island of Pantanal Lake said, falling high tower, voluntary sacrifice (Chapter 1118)..."

【Then, do you think there are other secrets about the past of this body?】

"She" asked with a chuckle.

Xia De emptied his brain, quietly looking at the gas street lamp closest to his home. After a long while, he asked a question:

"Confirm one thing, even for you, is there any memory about this body before I woke up?"

【Outsider, it is you, it is you. Therefore you opened your eyes, there is no need to doubt this.】

Xia De nodded slightly:

"So, the Academy's summary of the past, and the investigations of Helen and Grace into the past of this body, are likely problematic. The Academy might have been negligent, but Helen and Grace's investigation... Wait for Miss Danister to further investigate the high tower of Mount Kalas, or find Miss Pawo and ask what the 【Reason Society】 did... Or, go to Mount Kalas yourself."

"Meow~"

"So, the Academy's summary of the past, and Helen and Grace's investigation into the past of this body, likely have problems. The Academy might have been negligent, but Helen and Grace's investigation... I must wait for Miss Danister to further investigate the high tower on Karas Mountain, or find Miss Pawo and ask what the 【Society】 actually did... or perhaps, go to Karas Mountain myself."

"Meow~"

The cat poked its head out from behind Xia De's feet, glanced outside the door, and then retracted its head because it preferred the cold air.

Xia De bent down to pick up Little Mia, and then saw the figure of Luo Xi appear at the street corner of Saint Teresa Square.

Carrying the cat, he went to greet her, and the blonde girl also smiled and walked quickly toward him.

Regardless of what secrets this body or this identity held, in this world, he was only Xia De Suren Hamilton. The outsider would grasp everything in his hands and everything he possessed. No matter what had happened in the past, just as he told Luweiya tonight, he would create his own future.
