Chapter 1600

"Lunar eclipse? Yes, Miss Danister of St. Byrons also asked me to learn a brand new miracle related to 'End', 【Black Moon Rune】, during this lunar eclipse."

Xia De said, and when he went to the sacrificial ground on the top of the mountain to find Sister Daifulin, he also mentioned this matter.

In the true First Flame sacrificial ground at the bottom of the sacrificial ground, the burning flame was inserted with the angel-level relic longsword 【Ash】, the longsword was wrapped in ash, and the ash was covered with slender fiery red cracks, providing faint light in the center of the dark sacrificial ground.

The blind nun, wearing a grey-black robe, had her hands with slight fire burn marks folded together, sitting on the lowest level of the steps leading up around the sacrificial ground.

She listened quietly to Xia De, who was standing in front of her, finish talking about everything. Telling the church about Green Lake was naturally no problem. But when Xia De mentioned the lunar eclipse near the end of this month, the silver eye mask with dense patterns raised and "looked" at Xia De:

"Yes, the lunar eclipse at the end of this month is very important to you."

"Why do you say that?"

"When the moon completely disappears, the power hidden on the back of the moon, which is one body and two lives with the moon, can be completely displayed."

"Hmm..."

Xia De looked at the nun's beautiful and delicate face and blinked at the nun:

"Sister Daifulin, are you trying to remind me of something?"

The nun shook her head slightly, and the grey hair bound by the silver metal hoop swayed with it:

"I am describing your spirit rune 【Moon Shadow】. High-ring warlocks always have one or two unique spirit runes related to the core spirit rune, which is a portrayal of the soul and mind for high-ring warlocks... Wait for the night of the lunar eclipse to come, that will be your opportunity."

Although he didn't understand very well, Xia De still nodded:

"Sister, there is one more thing. Do you have any understanding of the Traveler Association and the Winter Choir? Does the Spirit Cult have any contact with them?"

"We have no contact with the Traveler Association, but my teacher, the previous nun who held the fire, had a brief contact with the thirteen-ring warlock 'Winter Singer' of the 'Winter Choir'."

The nun said, but the information she could provide was not much:

"At that time, that Winter Singer was not yet thirteen rings, and our contact with her was limited to brief exchanges. If you try to contact her, it will be more convenient through the channels of St. Byrons Comprehensive Academy."

After all, the "Winter Choir" and St. Byrons both operate on the Great Northern Ice Sheet, and the relationship between the two sides is also quite good.

"I understand, Sister."

Xia De nodded, but did not leave immediately, but took out the 【Night Watcher】 he brought this time, wanting to practice swordsmanship with Sister Daifulin while the "Seal of Hilton" had been improved.

The nun naturally agreed, so in the two hours before lunch, the two spent time together in the underground sacrificial ground. The effect of the "Seal of Hilton" that can be used while moving was indeed very good, and when the improved seal was cast, the golden light marks flowing on the surface of the spherical shield were also more gorgeous than the original, which was a sign of the enhancement of the seal's strength.

When the panting Xia De expressed to the nun at noon that he wanted to have lunch here, the nun asked a question that surprised Xia De a little:

"Grandma Cassandra's teachers, Miss Grace White and Miss Helen Black, haven't seen you for almost a month. Why don't you go to Midhillburg to see them?"

"Hmm... Sister, you don't welcome me to have lunch here?"

"Of course not."

The nun answered almost immediately, then realized that she answered a bit fast, so she turned her face slightly to look at the side below. Xia De didn't notice this:

"Grace and Helen are complaining that I haven't seen them recently, right? Sister, you should know why this is. The Green Lake area involves the Chosen One of Space, and their power has a major connection with that Ancient God. Since they have broken free from the manipulation of fate, I absolutely must not let them have any relationship with the Chosen One again. Even if there is only a glimmer of possibility, it is absolutely not allowed."

"But no one is outside of fate, even you, Xia De, the hero who carries the fire, have long stepped into fate."

Xia De shook his head, his attitude was very firm:

"After a while, when the secrets of Green Lake and Edwards are almost revealed, and I can be sure that it has nothing to do with them, I will apologize to them. Oh, Sister, help me send a letter, although I don't go to see them, at least let Helen and Grace know that I am fine."

The nun, who would never oppose Xia De's opinion, did not agree to his request this time:

"Go to Grandma Cassandra's for lunch."

"But..."

"Go to Grandma Cassandra's for lunch."

"But I..."

"Go to Grandma Cassandra's for lunch."

The nun stood in front of Xia De and repeated the same sentence. Although she had practiced swordsmanship with Xia De just now, her makeup was not affected at all.

Xia De himself was not the kind of person who was easily persuaded, but facing a lady as calm and composed as Sister Daifulin repeating it over and over again, he was still a bit shaken, and finally had to nod:

"Alright then, not going for a month is indeed very impolite. However, you have to go with me."

The nun did not repeat it this time, but nodded lightly.

Going from the sacrificial ground on the top of the mountain to the Cassandra Auction House in Midhillburg was only a matter of ten minutes. Seeing Xia De's arrival, not only Grace and Helen, but also Grandma Cassandra and Miss Rita Swift were quite happy.

The six of them had lunch together on the third floor of the auction house. During the meal, the Red Butterfly girls really complained that Xia De hadn't come to see them for a long time, and Xia De could only cope by saying that he had been very busy recently.

After lunch, Sister Daifulin went to help check the physical condition of the Red Butterfly girls, while Xia De talked with Grandma Cassandra and the witch apprentice in the lounge:

"Grandma, do you know anything about the Great Witch Audrey Edwards?"

Grandma Cassandra had quite high seniority in the council, and her understanding of Edwards should be more than Miss Galina's:

"You met her?"

The old witch with silver-white hair was a bit surprised.

"Yes."

He briefly narrated the experience of boarding the island twice with the "pharmacist" lady, talked about the brief fight with the 【Mirror-Hiding Man】, and mentioned Miss Galina's judgment.

After Xia De finished speaking, the old witch said to her apprentice:

"Rita, you have seen Audrey in the council. Describe your opinion of this Great Witch."

The brown-haired girl stood beside the old witch, she smiled sweetly at Xia De, and then said:

"Miss Audrey Edwards doesn't like to talk, but every time she expresses an opinion, she can hit the point. She doesn't have a very close relationship with most people in the council, and she rarely sees her communicating with other Great Witches privately. I have had two very short conversations with her; this lady is cautious and speaks little, and her emotions seem to have been very low."

Grandma Cassandra nodded:

"Observed very carefully. Rita's description is basically correct, and the news you can get from Sylvia and the others is about the same. I do know the secret of Audrey Edwards, the Speaker once came to me to deal with the problem of her being on the verge of losing control. But I must also abide by the rules of the 【Witch Council】 to keep secrets for companions. Xia De, I can only tell you that Audrey Edwards and Megan Edwards are both real names, she did not deceive you."

"Grandma, I understand now that you say that."

Xia De smiled, but raised another question:

"I currently know that the ceremony of the Chosen One of Space contains the content of 'multiple individuals merging into one individual'. In other words, the Great Witch of Knowledge and Wisdom may be the Chosen One of Space. And the real Great Witch of Space, Miss Sylvia, seems to me to be more in line with the requirements of knowledge and wisdom... the seat of the council, didn't make a mistake, right?"

Xia De had already tasted Miss Sylvia's wisdom. At the end of the Battle of Pantanal, many people came into contact with the light of enlightenment during the Chosen One ceremony, but only Miss Sylvia received the revelation that could promote the development of civilization—Xia De didn't know yet what Miss Pawo of the Truth Society had obtained.

"The identity of the Great Witch is just a symbol, but the witch herself is complex, and the talent of different witches is high or low, which is very normal."

The old witch said with a kind smile, and then abruptly changed the topic:

"Is it because of the Chosen One of Space that you don't want to involve the teachers?"

"Yes."

Zina Cassandra's aged eyes looked at Xia De:

"Have you ever thought that by doing this, you might instead push them to be curious about what you are doing, and then in private investigations, get closer and closer to the Chosen One's affairs. Xia De, don't walk on the wrong path because of fear of fate."

"I have thought about this possibility, but can't they not easily leave the Midhillburg area?"

"Are you sure?"

The old witch asked again, and Xia De couldn't give an answer easily this time, and Miss Swift also said on the side:

"Xia De, even if you don't say it, they have their own channels to understand the Green Lake matter. Your concealment doesn't actually mean much. I think Sister Daifulin also thought of this, so she insisted on you coming."

Xia De nodded lightly:

"I understand what you mean, I still need to consider it. At least until I determine the general content of the Chosen One ceremony, I will mention this to Grace and Helen."

"Since it's related to the teachers, when the Speaker decides to send a Great Witch to the Green Lake area, I will go too."

Grandma Cassandra said again, Xia De and Miss Swift were both surprised, and the latter even said:

"Teacher, but your body..."
