Chapter 1937
According to Sloth Edwards, who was restored to a normal person after being "resurrected," handing the remaining power to Megan and Audrey was a decision made by his father before the Battle of Green Lake began:
"After all, this is the family's property. Instead of falling into the hands of the Orthodox Church or other organizations, it is better to leave it to the most promising person among the descendants."
"Wait, Princess Lei Qianya, do you mean that the island now belongs to Megan and Audrey?"
Xia De asked in surprise on the bed, and Dorothy helped nod:
"Listening to that witch, Green Island belongs entirely to her, but she doesn't have such strong control over the island in reality. Sloth Edwards handed over all the land deeds and house deeds of the central island of Green Lake in reality to her, and she intends to put the land deeds and house deeds in the hands of the Green siblings, letting the Green siblings inherit the island. After all, she cannot admit that she is a member of the Edwards family, otherwise once investigated in detail by the church, the identity of the witch might not be hidden."
The central island of Green Lake in reality, although it also had a large area of real land, its value could not be compared with "Green Island." Xia De agreed with Megan's decision:
"So now, Megan and Audrey can easily expel everyone else on Green Island now, right?"
Princess Lei Qianya nodded:
"But she didn't do that for the time being, just used fog to hide important locations on the island, including the old Edwards house, the lighthouse, and the Green Lake Hotel. The Witch Council seems to want to share the development and research of the island with the Orthodox Church to a limited extent, and also jointly maintain the seal, at least to ensure that before the Sixth Era ends and the existing order collapses again, there will be no more problems there. We don't know the specifics yet, after all, there are only some ideas now."
"I thought Green Island could become a stronghold for the Witch Council."
Xia De felt a little regretful, and Dorothy explained for him:
"Miss Galina said she originally had this idea too. But after careful inspection, it was found that the monsters on the island were endless, and the disordered space caused the monsters' bodies to have long split into mirror images, so they could never be killed. What's more, it is the core of the seal after all, so it is best not to let too many people contact it."
Xia De sighed slightly:
"You and Princess Lei Qianya are also completely involved in this matter. Although you are not completely the Chosen as individuals, it is not certain yet whether you will really not face the terrible fate of the Chosen. After we return to Tobesk, you should stay in Yodel Palace and your own apartment, observe for a month or two, or move to my place temporarily. I am really worried about you."
Princess Lei Qianya did not object, nodded gently, then held Xia De's right hand holding the dinner knife, and blinked her green eyes at him:
"Speaking of which, since the Day of the Red Butterfly will last until around twelve o'clock. Then tonight... Knight, are you willing to help us check if there are any other strange problems with our bodies after fusion?"
Biting her lip slightly:
"That body after fusion is different from both of us. Not only you, but we are also very interested."
Seeing Xia De blush, Dorothy patted her behind Princess Lei Qianya, as if blaming her for bringing up this topic now:
"But before that, there is one more important thing tonight. Xia De, isn't there a girl who is about to have her eighteenth birthday?"
"Yes."
Iluna's birthday must not be forgotten.
Laplace Howard once told Xia De the real reason for the soul exchange and soul fusion of Dorothy and Princess Lei Qianya, which was that the world chose them, letting their situation "infect" the whole world, letting all living things become one at the end of the world, and one person surviving means the world and civilization survive. It's just that the Battle of Green Lake hadn't ended at that time, and Xia De planned to tell them after it ended.
But when the Battle of Green Lake really ended, Xia De didn't want to tell them this anymore. Whether in the eyes of Xia De or the dead diviner, even if Dorothy and Princess Lei Qianya really shouldered the so-called "mission," that mission had absolutely no possibility of being achieved in this Sixth Era, because there was not enough time.
Therefore, saying this would only increase trouble, and instead, he would have to explain the news of the impending end of the world. So when Xia De sat on the bed and thought of this, he just sighed in his heart, and then forced a smile on his face:
"Iluna's birthday is indeed important, but I have one more important thing for you here."
He changed into pajamas before going to sleep, and the items he carried were all placed in the bedside table. He opened the drawer, found the stack of blank cards left by the diviner, and handed more than a dozen cards to Dorothy and Princess Lei Qianya:
"Laplace Howard is indeed a genius. When he studied the Edwards Apotheosis fusion of family descendants, he noticed you. Although he couldn't solve the problem of soul fusion between you once and for all, at least he found a way to keep delaying it."
He told the two about finding "items related to stories that can become the enlightenment power of ring mages" and "needing to use these cards frequently":
"However, after all, there is no evidence that what he said is true, so these cards will be kept in my hands for the time being. After I verify whether it is true and whether there are other precautions, I will give them to you."
That is, find Luweiya to divine.
Dorothy was very interested in checking those cards:
"The same size as the Deck of Many Things... Does this count as a spatial item? That is, can it store objects and take them out at critical moments?"
"It should only be able to store corresponding items that meet the conditions, and once sealed, only power can be used."
Xia De shook his head:
"However, I know where the diviner's research materials are. He almost gave all his research to me. I will read it carefully later, not only the role of the cards, but also the method of continuing to manufacture cards. I hope the materials are not expensive... After we return to Tobesk, Princess Lei Qianya, Dorothy, you can try to find similar items first. Although they are not necessarily the original texts of those stories, they must be directly related to them... Thinking about it, I know it's not easy to find. After all, they are antiques from before the era, or even relics."
He shook his head, and Princess Lei Qianya smiled and kissed his side face:
"No problem, I will do this. The problem of gold pounds is a small matter. You eat quickly, and then we will go to the birthday party. You have to keep your spirits up, the Day of the Red Butterfly once every 21 days cannot be wasted."
Dorothy patted her again, but also bent down and kissed Xia De's side face gently.
The time Xia De walked out of the room with the writer and the princess was six o'clock on Thursday evening, and the Green Lake Hotel had also returned to its normal business appearance. In this hotel in Green Lake City, there were not many witch followers for the time being, because most of the girls were now on Green Island. But this hotel, which served as a key passage, was still under the control of the great witches and would be the most important asset of the Witch Council for a long time.
The Green siblings were not continuing their normal ordinary life in the hotel now. After they "fainted," they were discovered by the church on the central island of Green Lake where the fog had almost dispersed this morning, and the land deeds and house deeds of the island were discovered together.
And as the two "Edwards" known to be alive, this pair of ordinary siblings still needed to pass the strict review of the church. But the church should give some face to the Witch Council. After all, the Witch Council had already declared their ownership of Green Island to the church, which was a disguised admission of the deep connection between the great witches and the Edwards family and the Green siblings.
The passage connecting the hotel in the city and the hotel on Green Island was on the wall of the hotel basement. And very coincidentally, it was adjacent to the hidden wall leading to the "Spatial Maze," and the distance between the two was probably the distance of Xia De's arm plus Little Mia's tail.
This passage had now been hidden by Miss Sylvia and used the relatively classical "setting a password" as the way to open it:
"The square root of is plus or minus 123."
Dorothy said, pointing her finger at the wall, and the complex door frame outlined by branch patterns appeared on the wall.
"It really has Miss Sylvia's style."
"She thinks that people might say anything in the warehouse, but it is unlikely that they will perform complex mathematical operations here."
After passing through the "door" that had stabilized, they came to an almost identical warehouse, except that there were shining witch rituals and witch hair spreading everywhere like spider silk in this warehouse.
The girls who were maintaining the ritual greeted the three with a smile. After coming to the first floor of the hotel from the basement, although the three traveler camps summoned by Xia De had disappeared, a bonfire was still lit in the center of the lobby on the first floor.
"We decided to place a bonfire here permanently. On the one hand, the ritual needs it, and on the other hand, it is considered to commemorate the Battle of Green Lake."
Miss Aurora, who was casting a spell, said to Xia De. Now there was still "Sun Fire" brought by Xia De that had not been consumed in this bonfire. This was not all of Xia De's "Sun Fire" stock. Except for the old lantern obtained from the 【Sin Mansion】, the crystal beads could also temporarily store this special flame. He only brought about one-third of the amount with the lantern this time.
As for the old lantern that was now empty, it was placed on the table beside it, together with the lantern brought by Sister Daelin from the bottom of the lighthouse in the south of the island.
The two lanterns were almost identical and were definitely special items manufactured together. It's just that even Sister Daelin didn't know the origin of this precious flame container, but fortunately, these now belonged to Xia De.
There were many people in the hotel on the island, and all the girls would take the initiative to greet Xia De after seeing him, so after coming out of the basement, sounds like "Mr. Hamilton" almost never stopped.
