Chapter 1861

The test was very successful. As long as Xia De was still willing to spend his own spirit to maintain the existence of the boat, even if he was far away, he could let the boat exist. But when Xia De did not board the boat, others could not rely on their will to make the boat move like him, and could only drive the boat by rowing.

And after further testing, it was determined that Xia De himself not boarding the boat would not affect the characteristics of the boat, that is, it was not easy to be damaged, it was difficult to sink after being damaged, and it could carry the dead.

And the last and most important test was whether the small boat summoned by Xia De had the power to penetrate space.

For this point, Xia De himself had a guess. When he used the small boat to transport the old ship at the bottom of the lake last time, he found that his boat could only repel the thick fog covering the lake island, which itself was a symbol.

And that night, the spatial blockade imposed by Miss Sylvia with the help of relics, and the spatial movement influence of her own sorcery on the small boat, all showed that at least for the spatial blockade of relics and sorcery, Xia De's boat could be completely immune.

It's a pity that this old wooden boat can only exist in water areas, and will automatically disappear once it leaves similar scenes. Otherwise, carrying the boat, carrying the boat, or even installing pulleys on the bottom of the boat, the role of this boat could be even greater.

Seeing that the time was not early, Xia De left the boat for the two witches and Luweiya to continue testing, and he went up the Duin River to return to the urban area, preparing to meet the cultists of the 【Dragon Feast Sect】.

Walking into the slums in the southeast of the city alone with an umbrella, the night rain soon covered Xia De's tracks. No matter what the weather, entering the city slums at night is a very dangerous behavior. The rainy night can cover some sounds and wash away the smell of blood. Xia De really didn't expect that on the way to the appointment, he would be blocked in the alley by two people one after another to rob him. And the other party didn't hesitate at all, coming up and stabbing Xia De's abdomen with a knife.

So Xia De didn't be polite, and the flying moonlight cut off two heads.

He was very curious about whether he was plotted against or had bad luck, so he specifically used the sorcery 【Guiding Death】 to communicate with the soul of one of them in the rain:

"We were originally porters at the pier. The reduction in trade between Green Lake City and the City of Glass made us lose our jobs. We couldn't find jobs in the city immediately, but our families and rent all needed gold pounds."

The soul said his identity and story sluggishly, so the two corpses were placed against the wall by Xia De, waiting to be discovered tomorrow during the day. He dispersed the soul and continued to walk towards his destination.

The Dog Bark Tavern in Black Dog Alley is the kind of tavern located deep in the slums that Xia De can imagine, which must be stained with illegal business.

Most of the buildings around in the rainy night had no lights. The people in the slums cared very much about the changes in the gas meter readings. Only the windows of this tavern still had dim light. It was just that when Xia De pushed the door and entered, he found that there were actually not many people inside, and it was not as noisy as he imagined.

Men gathered together to drink and talk about the bad weather, or gathered around the table to play Luo De cards. The girls dressed up in flowers sitting at the table against the wall were either talking to their companions or throwing winks at the men looking at them.

Xia De, who broke into the tavern on a rainy night, only attracted the attention of a few people near the door.

He put away his umbrella at the door, looked at the dilapidated but obviously daily maintained tables and walls in the tavern, and then unexpectedly found that the person he was waiting for seemed not to have come:

"It is... 8:40."

Asking for a glass of ale casually, Xia De carried the wine glass and went to the second floor of the tavern on the creaking wooden stairs. There were even fewer guests on the second floor. This bad weather really made people unwilling to go out at night.

So he sat down in the corner, confirmed that the gold and silver rings were worn on his fingers, took out a newspaper from his arms, and checked it under the dim light.

8:56, footsteps walked towards Xia De, followed by the sound of chairs being pulled and sitting down.

Xia De put down the newspaper and looked at the lady sitting opposite wearing a black leather jacket and a black long skirt. She had brown hair similar to Megan and Audrey, in her thirties, and her eyes were like vertical pupils. When looking at Xia De, she showed a vigilant and puzzled expression.

And what is more critical is that when Xia De tried to listen to her heartbeat, the thumping sound he heard was extremely strong, not only vibrating the air, but even disturbing the spirit and elements. This is definitely not a heartbeat that a human should have.

Glancing at the silver dragon-shaped badge hanging on the other party's chest, Xia De nodded:

"Nadia Folen?"

The woman with a serious face and pursed lips looked like the kind of very strict person.

She also nodded:

"How do you want me to believe that you are the God-Awakener, not someone found casually by the church?"

Xia De took out five small keys from his pocket. These keys came from the blacksmith, mineral scholar, Rotten Eye Barry, boatman, and mayor. As for Victor Fanni's key, Megan had already returned it to him.

"Currently, the Edwards descendants found by the church are only the Folen brothers, and they only have one key. The Truth Society has one, you have one, the 【Tyranny Club】 has one - that key is probably in the hands of the Truth Society now, and the 【Mirror Association】 has one. There are eight keys left out of thirteen, and I brought five. Can this prove it?"

The three he didn't mention were in the hands of Victor Fanni, the Green siblings, and the old corpse ghost.

The woman who looked less than thirty years old and had slightly wet hair nodded:

"Although I know your current appearance is an illusion, it still surprises me that you are so young."

"Ms. Folen, what do you think I should look like?"

"More mature, with a neat beard, elegant but with a somewhat reserved arrogance."

For some reason, Xia De thought of Doctor Shi Nai De.

He shook his head:

"Nice to meet you, so what are we going to talk about tonight? Although I don't mind staying in the tavern with a beautiful lady like you until late, you also know that the situation is turbulent now, maybe the police will rush in at any time to search for suspicious personnel."

He knocked on the newspaper stacked on the side of his hand. The picture on it was the man holding a steam bomb who was caught. He didn't say anything after being arrested. Xia De knew that the Military Intelligence Service would soon arrange for him to disappear reasonably.

"I want to talk to you about my ancestors."

The woman said, leaning her body slightly forward, exposing her entire face to the firelight of the oil lamp on the table.

"Do you want to seek my protection?"

After Xia De finished asking, he saw the contemptuous smile on the serious woman's face:

"No, I never believe that others can protect me, only I can protect myself. I just hope you can get some information to increase the possibility of the ancestor's plan being destroyed."

"Give me information for free? Actually, even if you propose a deal, I won't disagree."

Nadia Folen shook her head;

"You are right, it is not safe here, so I will make a long story short. Whether to believe what I say next, you can decide for yourself. But I believe you should understand that our sect no longer puts the matter of the spatial Chosen One in the first place. If it weren't for the fact that I am a member of the Edwards family, I wouldn't stay either."

"Then please tell me your information. What I care about most now is whether I can follow the Edwards to the island at the first time and attend your family banquet."

"Without the ancestor's consent, this is difficult to do. The power that isolates the two islands is very ancient, but you can try to keep the Edwards around you forcibly. No matter how the ancestor wants to ensure that the disobedient descendants arrive at the banquet in time, you are currently the biggest threat to him."

This method is exactly what the witches are preparing. The Green Lake Hotel as a stronghold is also for this purpose.

"I don't know much about how to enter and leave the island. Only the ancestor knows the core secrets of the two islands best. What I want to remind you today is the set of alchemical cards that the ancestor imitated the angel-level relic 【Poetry Cards】. In that set of cards, each one seals a monster that appeared because of the ancestor's experiment and the evil things he summoned. You have seen one of them on the night of the lunar eclipse."

"Yes, I remember this. But that set of cards is just an alchemical item after all. Although powerful, it is also limited. What do you want to remind me?"

"That set of cards is the retreat prepared by the ancestor after his failure. That set of cards can truly realize a 'resurrection from the dead' for him. So, if you have a chance to kill the ancestor, you must destroy his deck before that."

"Oh?"

Xia De looked at her very unexpectedly. The woman's face was uncertain in the flickering candlelight. The window on the second floor of the tavern leaked wind, but it also made the room not very stuffy.

"You have told me the most important secret of that diviner."

"You need this secret, you are the person most likely to defeat him. People in the family who have seen him all know how powerful he is. You can't be careless at all when dealing with him."

"But have you ever thought that since the role of those cards is so important, why does he let you know? Is there a possibility that this matter is also in his expectation?"

Nadia Folen nodded:

"The ancestor's divination skills are terrible. Maybe everything is really in the ancestor's plan, but this doesn't mean that I will therefore succumb to his arrangements and the so-called fate of the family... One person ascends, others are steps, ha~ I will do any preparation I can before the family banquet. The sect still needs me, I cannot die in Green Lake."

"You are really pious... This is not sarcasm, it is a compliment."

Xia De smiled and picked up the wine glass, toasted to her, but the woman ignored his actions.
