Iluna patted her back gently. Luweiya coughed a few times, forcibly swallowed the blood in her mouth, and then rinsed her mouth with the tea Xia De handed her. She was not a delicate girl:

"Five powers that transcend the Thirteenth Tier, not even including himself, and that's just what I saw.

First is the evil object—Door in the Bottle—that Sister Sister Daifulin saw from Rast Edwards' memory. This thing has no self-consciousness, and the diviner's initial madness was related to him;

Second is one-third of a pale skull. I don't know what this is, but it shouldn't be a Relic. This thing is related to death. When I saw it, I felt like my whole body was going to freeze;

The third is a book, a book held up by many souls, which seems to have the power of fate. It may be Angel-level (Tier 1), or even Unknowable-level (Tier 0);

Then there is a person who is locked up and kept in a coffin. The other party is very wrong. Time and space overlap on him. He seems to be in the present, but also in the past. I don't know what he has experienced. It may be related to experiments and human alchemy;

Finally, the cards...

Xia De looked at Luweiya suddenly. The girl with purple eyes shook her head:

"It's not the Universal Impermanence Cards, I know those cards. That is the Angel-level Relic 【Poetry Cards】 he took away when he defected from the association. Xia De, do you remember that on the night of the lunar eclipse, he once summoned monsters with a stack of cards?"

Xia De nodded:

She originally thought this would cause a heated discussion between Xia Qi and Luweiya, but she didn't expect them not to care at all:

"Fortunately, Xia De solved the devil in advance, otherwise the five problems blocking the way would have become four."

Leaving Little Mia, who didn't know what happened, at home, Xia Qi quickly went downstairs and walked out of the house. With a flash in the shadow of the square, he had already turned into a silver cat.

De Er Gong was not surprised that Xia De knew so much, after all, he had always been like this every time.

"Of course I remember, at that time it was guessed that it was his alchemy item."

Xia De and De Er Gong's expressions were the same at this moment.

"One o'clock sharp, no matter if it's Princess Lei Lei Qianya or the carriage, they didn't come... It seems something happened."

"Skull, ah,

In order not to miss the time, he took Little Mia at 5 o'clock in the afternoon to say goodbye to the blonde Princess who was reluctant to part and returned home. Princess Lei Lei Qianya said that she would send a carriage to pick up Xia De to the opera house around one o'clock, so Xia Qi waited at home after dinner.

He peeked inside from the window glass, but found that there were indeed many people in the room, but Princess Lei Lei Qianya was not there. Princess Lei Lei Qianya's maid, Miss Weiss Dur, was being questioned by a man Xia Qi didn't know but looked like a colleague of Military Intelligence Section 6, and the general manager maid who invited Howard was leading a team of maids to check every corner of the room.

"In addition, before that diviner arrives in Iluna, the association believes that the central island of Iluna itself has a quite big trouble, a trouble close to a natural disaster. When we solve Laplace-Wei Edward, we must also pay attention to this point."

"Besides old medicine experiments, he has experienced other things."

Howard's situation was a bit wrong. Although it couldn't be seen from the outside, when the silver cat entered the palace garden under the cover of the fence, it found that the palace guards were mobilizing abnormally. In order to facilitate Xia De to see her at any time, Princess Lei Lei Qianya told him the duty and guard shift schedule of Howard, and the state at this time was obviously wrong.

"The Door in the Bottle matter, during the battle on the night of the lunar eclipse, the Church noticed it; the Relic held up by many souls is the Angel-level Relic 【Soul Storybook】. You can think of it as a strengthened version of the 'Full Page Puppeteer Script' that acts on the soul. I will tell you the specific information later; I don't know who the person in the coffin is, but it might be some Edwards, but

Xia De, who was wearing a white formal suit and walking around the living room with his hands behind his back, gradually had some bad premonitions in his heart. Turning to look at the grandfather clock in the corner, he watched the second hand and minute hand move towards the top together until they overlapped at the number "12".

"What?!"

They didn't mess up Princess Lei Lei Qianya's things, but seemed to be looking for clues. No one found a silver cat outside the window, and although the glass was soundproof, Xia De barely heard words like "missing."

"Later, the Church asked us to verify. In fact, when he defected, he took away an Angel-level Relic of the association. However, for the sake of face, the association did not inform the Church and the college."

"Before the decisive battle in Iluna, I will let it leave the hands of Laplace Klein Xia Qi Shan."

"【Poetry Cards】 only has one, which is said to be one of the game cards made by imitating a unique card in the Fifth Era, but later only this one turned into a Relic. Its function is to summon heroes who have been recorded in poetry. This is an Angel-level Relic extremely suitable for sorcerers like Duo Luo Qian who take the enlightenment elements of stories as the core system. If I guessed correctly, the set of cards used by Laplace Xia Qi Shan was developed based on this Angel-level Relic. As for the 【Poetry Cards】 itself, the association's containment record says it can summon demigods."

Although he was busy all day in Xia Qi Shan, Xia De did not forget that he had to make up for the opera house date with Princess Lei Lei Qianya tonight, as well as the fairy tale study course that was delayed on Saturday.

Xia Qi Shan and Luweiya looked at each other: Xia De signaled her not to be nervous:

Mr. Nicholas Green almost said the status quo of all Edwards, so the targets to be suspected were very few, and it could even be said that there was only one: the eldest son of the third generation, who was said to have died young, but was actually Envy Edwards who was locked in a well for old medicine experiments.

He touched the cat and sighed:

"That's hard to say... Let's talk about other things first. Regarding the 【Poetry Cards】 matter, the Prophecy Association should be more anxious to deal with it than us, after all, it is a Relic contained by the association."

The time-telling sound of the city bell tower came from the distance, Xia De stopped his steps, his face was grim:

Xia Qi Shan wanted to liven up the atmosphere, but Luweiya was still quite troubled:

But he waited until the sun went down, and the gas street lamps around the square were lit one by one, illuminating the edge of St. Deran Square, which was in a peaceful atmosphere in the night, and he still didn't see the carriage.

"Solve the matter here first. When I got the 【Source of Chaos】, didn't I learn from the ancient astrologer Mr. Euclid that the Chosen One of the Moon would stay at No. 3 St. Deran Square? We are not sure if those things that haven't happened yet will definitely happen. Xia Qi Shan, that's just a dream, even if it's true, it's not something that should be discussed now. As for Ajelina... I will pay attention to her."

"Don't be anxious, calling heroes from the past requires very harsh conditions. Now that card is in an inactive state, so I don't know how he will use that card. But what is certain is that the ancient heroes summoned will definitely be extraordinary."

"Evil object—Door in the Bottle, Relic—Soul Storybook, suspected Envy Edwards, Relic—Poetry Cards... Then what about that one-third of the skull?"

"The most important thing now is to figure out what you saw.

"On the night of hunting the devil, I once entered the bottom of the dry well of the old Edwards house in Mr. Soren Green's dream and saw strange murals. Half was Envy Edwards being forced to swallow drugs for experiments, and half was him passing through doors, and the lines depicting his body became more and more blurred."

Luweiya added:

Xia De and Luweiya discussed with De Er Gong the results of the divination for a whole afternoon, and they were quite clear that it would be difficult to achieve results this time even with the support of the witches, even if they borrowed the power of the Church.

The cat climbed up the high floor along the steam pipe outside the wall under the cover of moonlight.

The cat pondered for a while outside the window, then turned and left. After recovering into human form in the shadow of the alley on the side of Silver Cross Avenue, Xia De immediately rushed to No. 221 Cat Tail Alley in the university district in the night.

Luweiya and De Er Gong summarized the information that could be told to the Church, and De Er Gong revealed it, to increase her weight as a "Balanced Chosen One" in the Seven Gods Church. At the same time, during the discussion, De Er Gong mentioned a strange dream she had recently:

Didn't take the normal road, but climbed up along the steam pipe on the outer wall of his own house. After reaching the roof, he took a look at the place where the long-haired Luweiya sat in the dream, and then rushed out from the back of the house.

"In the matter of dating, Princess Lei Lei Qianya even hates to arrive an hour early, it is absolutely impossible to be late."

"I seem to have dreamed that Princess Ajelina Cavendish stood barefoot on the Cherub Lake of the Lady of the Lake, and was saying strange things like the Chosen One of the Witches." The atmosphere was a bit heavy for a while. The Thirteenth-Tier diviner herself was difficult enough to deal with, and now with these, the trouble became even bigger.

"You," she asked softly.

If Xia Qi relied on himself alone, for the upcoming Iluna battle, he couldn't think of any other solution besides burning divinity, and what needed to be burned was not necessarily just a drop of divinity. But now with the great witches by his side, with the full-state Seven Gods Church and the three major colleges, and even the "Hidden Mirror Man" willing to help in secret. This matter still has the possibility of being solved by his own power.

【Why didn't you arrive late?】

After having lunch at the Iluna Hotel at noon, Xia Qi Shan and Luweiya left separately. Xia De found the witches who were busy in the basement and told them the new information he got in the afternoon. As for the afternoon of this Monday, he went to the City of Glass on the other side of the lake. On the one hand, he visited Margaret who was frightened last night, and on the other hand, he inquired about the progress of the Church's pursuit of the 【Tyranny Club】.
