Chapter 1869

Seeing that Xia De had arranged for Ajelina, Grandma Cassandra asked again:

"Devlin, what are your arrangements?"

The blind nun beside the old witch replied softly:

"The Chosen of Balance has been arranged at the Peace Church. He will leave the church and head to that cruise ship. Ultimately, only those who can board the island will have an effect."

"That's good, this way the manpower will be more sufficient. Originally, there were only Vanessa and Grandma Cassandra on the cruise ship, and I was a bit worried, but now it's enough."

Miss Aurora was very happy about this:

"Although we don't have a 13th-ring here, our combat power is barely sufficient. Our followers cannot all be arranged into the battlefield, but there are already many loyal girls. If that diviner really wants to go head-to-head with all the forces in the Grace Lake region, he would have already lost even without boarding the island. The only uncertainty now is how exactly he intends to invite his descendants to the island."

The plan and backup schemes had now been discussed, and everyone had to make their own preparations for tomorrow's battle, so the afternoon meeting did not last long. Although Sister Devlin decided not to act with the church, she still returned to the church with Iluna that afternoon.

Xia De took Luvia to his room, but it wasn't because he wanted to do anything private in broad daylight, but for another key piece of information:

"How exactly can the angel relic 【Poetry Card】, which can summon ancient heroes, unleash its characteristics?"

"What incantation?"

Xia De reached out to touch her body, but his hand couldn't touch anything:

【Escape is not the end, death will surely come.】

"Then, if this clothing is balled up, can it make the invisibility cloak itself invisible?"

"Is it convenient to talk to you now? Or, I'll leave you some time."

"That's really amazing... what are the drawbacks and costs?"

"A Keeper-level longsword weapon is also quite rare."

Miss Aurora said, and Luvia added from the side:

"How many charms did you make?"

"Keeper-level relic 【Concentric Sword】. Two different objects pierced by this sword will be treated as a single entity."

Luvia nodded affirmatively:

He evaluated it this way, and Luvia lifted the cloak to hand it to Yu Guan for inspection, while Miss Aurora continued to introduce;

"You take it, I hope it can come in handy. I really have no confidence in this battle. I am the lowest-level Great Witch in the Council. It seems that after this matter is over, I also need to consider promoting as soon as possible, otherwise, I can only do this kind of logistics work in the future, or act as a tool person for opening portals."

Luvia on the side was very surprised, picked up the cloak and put it on. The smooth, silk-like fabric covered her whole body, making her body completely transparent, leaving only her head floating in the air. This scene was quite terrifying.

"Don't be so surprised, it's not as powerful as you think. I only have a superficial understanding of your mystery, so the production of this thing involved the power of the Council and can only be used by women. Moreover, it can only be used at short distances. It's not like you, who can cross half an Old Continent; this charm might be ineffective at the distance of half a city. And the reason for choosing to return to this inn is also because the inn has matching rituals for positioning."

"Bend the metal, activate the characteristics, and then you can return directly to the first floor of this inn. I call it the 'Return Charm'."

"Some time ago, you discussed the home-returning effect of your mystery 'Cinderella' with me. I was inspired and flipped through some past literature before finally producing this."

Luvia asked curiously; the effect of this charm was quite useful in certain specific situations.

Xia De evaluated, but Luvia shook her head:

"Absolutely do not do that; it will cause the relic to go out of control."

"Are only these three conditions needed?"

Luvia was somewhat surprised:

Seeing Luvia was also there, he teased:

But Yu Guan didn't want to use the cards himself, but was worried that the diviner who had guessed the existence of the "Past Era, 6th Era" would use the cards to summon something else:

She shook her head regretfully:

"Oh, Xia De, you're here."

"Yes."

"Although it can be invisible, beings with strong inspiration can still vaguely perceive it. Its hiding effect is actually not as excellent as that Keeper-level 【Hide-and-Seek Wardrobe】. And the main characteristic of this clothing is that once the 'escape death' characteristic is triggered, it means you can never come out of the invisibility cloak again. Otherwise, no matter what method is adopted, once the cloak is lifted, you will die immediately."

"I also recognize this, Xia De, this is not a weapon. This is similar to your 'Thorn of Eros'. Although it looks like a weapon, it is actually a ritual item."

She really underestimated herself. No matter what enemies or disasters she faced, the power of the Great Witch of Space was always indispensable.

"Less than ten. The rarity of raw materials is secondary; the main thing is that the production process is very troublesome, and I cannot devote all my time to this."

"Only in the Grace Lake region can such things be produced. Although the instability of space leads to increased danger in crossing space, it also reduces the difficulty of crossing space. Leaving the Grace Lake region, I wouldn't be able to produce this thing... unless I continue to promote."

She wasn't looking for Yu Guan to chat, but was showing Xia De a triangular charm made of silver metal. Witches were good at making various charms because the witches of the 7th Era loved to study how to make their personal accessories beautiful and useful.

"What?"

"Yes, after putting on the cloak, not only can others not see you, but you no longer exist as a tangible entity. But the true value of this relic is the 'escape death' in its name. Covering your whole body with the relic when you are about to die means you will absolutely not die. It's as if this invisibility cloak can also shield you from the pursuit of death. Your miracle 【False Immortality】 is similar to the effect of this relic, but the immortality state after putting on the invisibility cloak will not be broken by more severe injuries."

"Select the summoning target, know their life story, hold relevant items, recite the incantation—the relic activates. This is a relic related to time, and its danger also comes from time itself. The Association's containment files do not explicitly mention where the specific danger lies, only warning diviners not to use the power of time casually. Time, like fate, is incomparably fair to everyone."

"What I'm worried about is also this. The diviner uses his descendants with space-time talent to explore the past. If what he finally summons is what I think it is, that would be too terrifying."

Yu Guan asked, and the purple-eyed girl recalled:

"Is that considered invisibility? That's simply disappearing."

"The Association attaches great importance to this relic, believing that this clothing is related to that ancient death god, and it might even be an ancient god's creation. Besides what Miss Aurora said, the Association also recorded that the person wearing the cloak might disappear completely and never be found again. Having hidden oneself, no one is clear what the invisible person will encounter."

She obtained Miss Aurora's permission and introduced it to Yu Guan:

Xia De sighed longly. Luvia was about to say something else when a knock on the door sounded, and then Miss Sylvia walked in:

"Hmm... you can just assume that's what I think. How exactly should the cards be used?"

"I don't know, but it's on that card. It's ancient text, which surely isn't a problem for you."

"I've seen the specific containment report... I remember now."

"Oh? It's actually this relic? I thought it was in the hands of the Church of Nature."

"Are you trying to snatch that card and then call for an ancient witch to come and help? That's not a bad idea."

Miss Aurora warned, then took the bleeding longsword from the box held by her niece. However, the blood droplets would automatically disappear during the falling process and would not contaminate the inn's floor:

One side of this cloak was silver, while the inner side was some kind of flaxen fabric, which also prevented the clothing itself from being invisible. The tail of the cloak was sewn with fine stitches of elderflowers, but the flowers and vines connected together could be interpreted by Xia De's "Language Comprehension"—

Xia De was stunned:

Yu Guan asked curiously, pulling Little Mia out from under the cloak.

"This relic, like the 【Hide-and-Seek Wardrobe】, is Keeper-level (Level 3). It's not that the Council doesn't have Angel-level (Level 1) and more Sage-level (Level 2) relics, it's just that there are too few low-danger relics with huge side effects. Your 【Night Watcher】 is perfect in that regard."

Before this relic was stolen, it had always been contained by the Divination Association, and there was little information about it elsewhere.

"Let me briefly introduce it. This is the most suitable relic selected by the Council. This cloak is the Sage-level relic 【Invisibility Cloak of Escaping Death】."

She took out another identical charm and gave one to Yu Guan and Luvia each:

"This is really..."

First and most importantly, learn as much as possible about the life story and deeds of the ancient hero you want to summon, which will greatly affect the power of the summoned hero; secondly, have items related to that poetic hero—not necessarily used by the other party, but also symbolic items like longswords or horses; finally, the incantation. Yes, the activation of this relic requires an incantation."

Not long after Miss Sylvia left, Miss Aurora brought two relics to Xia De, which were a silver cloak and the longsword dripping blood in a box held by Miss Hayley Aurora.

That afternoon, the witches of the Council also received two other relics that might help Xia De and let him board the island with Megan.

The Great Witch of Space "humbly" introduced the effect of the charm to the two:
