Chapter 2224

The doctor pushed the box to Xia De:

"Non-human demons like Fanalus are different from the stone mirror demon Gothe; it doesn't have the habit of collecting valuables and carrying them on its body. However, it might be related to its crow form; it always keeps some coins and glowing gemstones on its body."

Although those gemstones were valuable, they were all ordinary items. However, among the six coins, except for one antique silver coin of unknown era, the other five coins were actually all relics.

Xia De was very satisfied with this:

"These are valuable enough, doctor, you know that Luweiya and I have always been collecting coin-type relics."

"As long as you don't mind that the harvest this time is small."

The doctor breathed a sigh of relief; he never thought that Xia De helping him was a matter of course:

"In a few days, I will make another alchemical item to help you find the crow's nest in Moon Bay.

Evil spirit demons themselves don't have a fixed form, but once they determine their fixed form, they always tend to lean towards the habits of the corresponding form. A typical example is the fire demon we encountered in the Sikar Mountains at the beginning. If I'm not mistaken, Fanalus should have a crow's nest in Moon Bay. Although I can't guarantee that there are special coins in it, it shouldn't be a problem for you to pick up some gemstones or something."

"I don't require any special harvest, I see this very openly. And I had other harvests in today's operation, doctor, you must remember that sword of light."

The blue-eyed psychologist indeed showed a slightly uncomfortable expression:

"Of course, it's worthy of being the power left by the ancient gods. Justice and light are simply my natural nemesis."

"Yes, I saw that sword this time, and in the future..."

Xia De was startled, put down his wine glass, and asked suspiciously:

"Doctor, I don't remember telling you about that sword, do you also know about the Sword of Light?"

"Of course."

The doctor nodded, instead feeling that Xia De's performance was very strange:

"I know a lot of knowledge related to demons and demon hunting. That sword hasn't appeared in this world for the first time. In the ancient Third Era, there was no lack of brave people who had pulled out that sword."

He paused slightly to recall the knowledge in his mind:

"For example, I remember a vampire witch hunter who once used a sword called 【Blood Sorrow】 to pull out the Sword of Light. This matter is very famous, and you can check it elsewhere."

Xia De took a deep breath, so little Mia, who was lying on his lap, also learned to take a deep breath:

"Yeah, why did I forget to ask you about this?"

He sat up straight again:

"Doctor, that sword is related to the next seventh Chosen One, we still need to pull the sword. Regarding this, what else do you know?

Currently, I already know that using that sword once requires four conditions: an enemy that threatens civilization, a strong person, a heart of justice, and a sufficiently strong holy sword as a carrier; and permanently obtaining that sword requires a complex ritual, but we know nothing about it."

The doctor sat on the short sofa opposite Xia De, holding his wine glass and thinking again:

"This question is really hard to answer. The Sword of Light, or the Dragon Sword, is one of the few weapons that can directly damage the demon's body. But that weapon is no different from a legend to me. I didn't even think I would have the chance to touch it before."

I don't know how to pull the sword, but I know some little stories related to that sword. Would you like to hear them?

"Of course."

"Alright then."

The doctor also put his wine glass on the coffee table:

"It's called a little story, but there's actually no plot. For example, the vampire witch hunter who once used 【Blood Sorrow】 obtained the mercy of the ancient gods under extreme circumstances and pulled out that Sword of Light.

But after fighting the demon and sealing it almost permanently, that ancient hero also died of exhaustion. Using that sword requires a price; ancient god creations cannot be used casually."

Only then did he ask with concern:

"Forgot to ask just now, has Miss Synode woken up? She only swung the sword three times, so it shouldn't be a big problem."

"Woken up, her bloodline is special, and she has that little unicorn by her side, no need to worry about her."

The doctor nodded and continued:

"Besides, how is your physics?"

This question was very strange, but the outlander, who almost got the highest degree back home, still nodded:

"Quite good, at least the basic knowledge is no problem."

"Then you should know that white light can actually be considered a mixture of countless different colored light rays.

According to the knowledge I know, the white 【Sword of Light】 we saw today is actually the most basic form of that sword, and also the form with the weakest power. When the user of the sword can make that sword evolve into different colors, it can be considered the second form of the 【Sword of Light】, but it is clear that Miss Synode does not have this ability yet."

The doctor said easily:

"As for the final form of the 【Sword of Light】, this is just a legend. Turning oneself and the sword into light, yes, that's all I know."

"A very interesting statement, that sword actually has forms?"

Xia De thought carefully, his right hand stretched out and gripped the air;

"It's really interesting, first it's white light, then it converts into a light sword of a specific color. If I were to use it, it would likely be... um?"

He was startled and looked at the doctor, and the doctor laughed:

"It seems you realized it. That's right, you guessed it. There is a saying that the source of the strange art you mastered is this sword."

He watched the moonlight greatsword with complex rune strings take shape in Xia De's hand:

"Using light as a sword, it is said that after the ancient sages saw the 【Sword of Light】, they created the 【Moonlight Greatsword】 and the 【Sunlight Greatsword】 according to their own understanding... Actually, I have always been curious, why is there no 【Starlight Greatsword】? Is it because the light of the stars is very dim?"

The doctor pondered this complex question, while Xia De looked at the spiritual weapon in his hand with some surprise:

"But doctor, the statement in the academy library materials is not..."

"Yes, but is the information in the academy 100% correct? Detective, what I told you is only one of the statements. Maybe both of these statements are wrong."

He shook his head at Xia De:

"Some things are too far away from us, so far that even ring warlocks can only hear broken words from the wind. Don't think too much; compared to the source of power, the form of expression of power in your hands is the most important."

Xia De nodded thoughtfully, continuing to look at the 【Moonlight Greatsword】 in his hand. The doctor picked up his wine glass and took another sip, then suddenly asked;

"Speaking of which, when flying over the city this morning, I also smelled another faint foul stench of a demon in Moon Bay. That seems to be... a succubus? No, not an evil spirit demon, just a pure demon variant. Detective, do you have any clues about this?"

Xia De hesitated for a moment, then nodded:

"I know, a count's manor was completely corrupted by evil power, and the countess and maids in it fell into succubi. However, this is not an evil spirit demon behind it, but the degree of terror will not be inferior to an evil spirit demon. Don't worry about this matter for now, the other party promised to limit the actions of those succubi."

The doctor nodded, not caring what Xia De was talking about. Since it was not those ancient evil spirits, it had nothing to do with him:

"Moon Bay is really a dangerous place. I heard you say that there are quite a few dragons lurking in the nearby sea? If you need me to go to Moon Bay again to help, please speak at any time. I'm not in a hurry to advance to the ninth ring. Following you to hunt demons in the past year, I have also saved a lot of materials, and I won't be as strapped as before."

"If I need to, I will speak. But let's prepare for next week's exam first, there are only seven days left."

Xia De paused, his eyeballs moved slightly downward in his eyes, and he finally asked that question:

"Doctor, you have digested so many demons one after another, will you... will that kind of slight loss of control like Priest Ao Gu Si happen to you?"

His hand stroking the cat had stopped, and the doctor also knew what Xia De wanted to ask:

"I can only say, at least for now, there is no problem."

His tone was very relaxed:

"Mr. Shelf Tim and Miss Shana Aya... speaking of which, when that happened back then, Team Leader Tim was also at the eighth ring. Time really passes quickly, in the blink of an eye I have reached the same level as him."

The doctor sighed, then sat up straight and said to Xia De:

"Remember, detective, I once told you, it was after that matter of human pus that we said, if one day, you suspect that I have lost control, then don't hesitate, put on the 【Witch Hunter Seal】, hold your 【Night Watchman】 tightly, and then kill me.

Your existence makes me dare to devour demons so quickly. You are my insurance, so I am not afraid of losing control."

Seeing the expression on Xia De's face at this moment, he waved his hand with a smile again:

"Of course, that is still a long way off. Now it's only the middle ring, detective. The five of us in the group will go a long, long way together.

I am still looking forward to taking the train with you to the town in the King's North, passing through the pass of Winterhold, walking across the Great Northern Ice Sheet, moving forward in the wind and snow in the brilliant sea of stars and the long polar night, spending the cold night in an igloo, and finally holding hands together, witnessing our footsteps arriving at the gate of St. Byrons Comprehensive Academy."

He looked up at the lamp in the center of the room's ceiling, his eyes seemed to be flashing:

"According to tradition, the professors of the academy will form a welcome group to welcome every correspondence student who returns to the academy on their own.

What will the situation be like then? Will Priest Ao Gu Si complain that he is old but still has to travel long distances? Will Louisa create more charming stories based on our experiences? Will Anate know more about destiny under that starry sky?

No, I don't know, but I am really looking forward to that day, Xia De, I am really looking forward to the arrival of that day. So, let's go on together, don't let go of anyone's hand by your side, don't let us leave."
