Chapter 2288: Legacy

"Wait, light will not melt light. If the warm sunlight on this armor is sustainable, then can this armor help the wearer resist the special light that has appeared in the Sixth Era to a certain extent?"

Xia De thought in his heart, and because of the attachment of miracle elements, this set of armor had also undergone some changes.

In addition to emitting warm sunlight itself, Xia De judged with a simple touch that both the physical defense and the defense against spells of this armor had been slightly enhanced.

"Since you don't know what happened to it either, why not leave it here to continue accepting the sunlight, and take it away when you leave next time?"

The old elf suggested again. Xia De thought about it and felt that this was a good idea. Although he had never actively left any items in the past time, even if it failed, at worst the armor would just go back with him.

It was not appropriate to place the armor at the entrance of the temple. Xia De looked left and right and chose the altar deep in the temple.

However, this altar was once a sacrificial tool for the Sun God, so Xia De prayed cautiously first, then moved the altar with great effort, changing it from half in the sunlight to completely in the sunlight.

After doing these, he moved the armor box to the altar.

Originally, Xia De wanted the various parts of the armor to be in contact with the sunlight as much as possible, so he opened the box. But later, he thought that Granny Sianode and the others still had to live here. If the armor could really be left behind, it would be inevitable for them to feel annoyed looking at this lion-shaped armor every day. Then he thought that anyway, he didn't really need to make the armor powerful; his own body was strong enough.

Therefore, what was finally placed on the altar was the closed armor box. Among the "smiling sun pattern," "sword and shield," "golden lion," and "woman's face surrounded by curved patterns" on the side wall of the box, the one facing the obliquely shining sunlight was the "smiling sun pattern."

And after doing these, white mist had already lingered on Xia De's body.

Xia De held Little Mia in his arms and formally said goodbye to the ladies:

"Granny Sianode, Miss Sandel, Miss Mester, and Miss Nite, I am leaving again. During my absence, I will investigate the pattern of the door that Miss Sandel drew, and you should also prepare to explore together."

"Okay, you can leave with peace of mind."

The old elf said with a smile. Miss Mester just sat there and nodded at Xia De. Miss Sandel and Miss Nite sent Xia De to the entrance of the temple together, watching Xia De hold the cat with its tail on fire and walk toward the depths of the desert until he disappeared completely.

The two returned to the side of the chair and sat down. After sitting down, they felt they didn't want to speak or do anything anymore. After Xia De and that cat left, it was as if they had taken away all the vitality in this temple, but it was more like they had brought vitality.

Now there were only four people left here, and the souls worn down by the long passage of time had also fallen silent again. Although they still had to prepare for Xia De's next return and the final adventure, but... anyway, there was plenty of time.

Miss Nite looked at the stone heart placed beside her, while Miss Sandel looked up at the golden box on the altar illuminated by the sunlight deep in the temple.

The golden box was bathed in sunlight and shining brightly. She stared at this scene blankly, and suddenly felt that this box containing the armor was so compatible with this temple. When it was placed on the altar and illuminated by the sunlight, the mermaid girl even felt that this scene was natural, more natural than the most beautiful coral underwater.

"It seems it should have been like this originally."

She was completely unaware that her eyes were being dyed golden by the golden luster on the box. Granny Sianode and Miss Nite did not see her stand up unconsciously, walking toward the box like a moth to a flame.

Fortunately, after the blue-haired girl took the first step, Miss Mester, who was sitting beside her, pulled her.

The blue-haired girl then sat down, then gasped for breath and lowered her head. Suddenly she turned to look at the lady with light-brown skin and whispered:

"Thank you, I just now... that box is really beautiful."

Although the others didn't know what had happened, they all looked at the golden box left by Xia De. No one spoke, and the solemn and respectful atmosphere that suddenly rose in the quiet temple even made the ordinary person Miss Nite feel a bit unable to breathe.

After waiting for a moment, the elderly elf took the initiative to speak:

"Don't investigate. We are just here to find the 'Heart of the Oasis.' If we can leave here safely, not much of the remaining memories will be left. It's better not to know some things. This is not something you should come into contact with. Don't try to understand, don't try to feel, don't think about anything."

The blue-haired girl nodded ignorantly, but when she looked down at her feet, she still quietly raised her eyes and looked at the box again.

For a mermaid in the deep sea, warm sunlight was something they rarely came into contact with. And compared to the scorching sun in the desert, clearly this box was more warm and comfortable.

Sixth Era, 1853, Thunder Month, 28th, Monday morning.

【Outsider, you have returned to the present time.】

"Oh~"

Accompanied by Xia De appearing at the doorway with the cat that had not turned into a toy but returned to the present time with him, the red-haired Duchess walked forward, reached out and wrapped her arms around Xia De's shoulders, and pulled him to turn around in place like dancing, then leaned down slightly to make Xia De bend backward, and then kissed him.

The breath of extreme cold was sent into Xia De's mouth from the witch's mouth. Xia De, who was scorching all over, then gradually felt his body temperature return to normal bit by bit.

But he did not notice that the witch opened her eyes and looked forward at this time, so Luvia and Dorothy both gave her a thumbs-up.

Because they were kissing, it was not very convenient to smile, but Galina Cavendish still extended a hand downward according to the plan, and then...

"Oh! What are you doing!"

Xia De separated from her in panic and protested.

"The temperature is indeed high. Oh, it's really energetic early in the morning, Xia De, your reaction is really fast."

The witch said leisurely, then kissed Xia De again unreasonably, helping him continue to lower his body temperature.

After a long time, the two separated. The red-haired witch said very firmly to the two girls standing beside her:

"The guess is correct, the temperature of the whole body is indeed rising. If any of you are interested, next time you can, after Xia De finishes the adventure of this key, let him..."

"Please don't say anymore!"

Xia De interrupted her words. Galina then shook her head with a smile, and then kissed his side face affectionately. The witch's perfume had already dispersed around Xia De. To be honest, being able to immediately smell this scent that made him invigorated after experiencing a harsh environment, he was actually very happy.

Luvia pulled the topic away with a smile:

"Alright, alright, sit down and tell us the story. Of course, before telling the story, you'd better explain how Little Mia's tail caught fire."

Xia De turned his head to look at his shoulder. The cat's tail was still on fire. However, Little Mia didn't seem to care much. Returning to the familiar and comfortable home, it showed greater comfort than in the desert:

"Little Mia has evolved... I mean, it... let's tell the story first."

The second adventure in the Gravel Sea of Sand was more complicated than the first. Because Miss Mester didn't do much this time, Xia De could describe most of the details.

Female knight, Power of the Earth, illusion, demon, golden armor, of course, the cat on fire could not be forgotten.

And when Xia De mentioned that Little Mia's power was further enhanced and it could now spit out small flames, Dorothy actually looked at the cat lying on the coffee table with great worry.

It was about the same as Xia De thought. The temperature of the flames on Little Mia's tail was not very high and would not easily ignite furniture, so it didn't matter if it was left to walk around by itself.

"So you successfully left that armor behind?"

After Xia De finished the story, the writer girl asked again. Xia De nodded:

"At least I didn't find the armor coming back with me. I'm not worried about the armor coming back now, I'm worried that I won't be able to bring it back next time.

After all, for my time exploration, except for the items necessary for the mission, other items with supernatural power cannot travel between two times. That set of armor is already glowing now, I'm worried that after I go back next time, I won't even be able to turn it into a toy."

"After all, it was given to you by that Miss Gaude, so you cherish it very much, don't you?"

The Duchess asked. Xia De suspected she was teasing, but he still explained:

"This is one of the very few pieces of evidence that proves to me that Miss Gaude is a truly existing person."

"Look, he not only suspects that his cat is abnormal now, but even begins to suspect that the cat's owner is also abnormal."

So Miss Galina said to Dorothy with a smile, and the writer girl comforted:

"Alright, alright, don't worry about this now. If that set of armor belongs to you, you will definitely be able to get it back. At least this experiment was successful, wasn't it? You left an ordinary item in the past."

"Actually, there have been similar things before, such as the flowers given to Miss Feilian, and I have a coat at Fiona's, cough cough, you guys look at this pattern."

He drew the pattern that Miss Sandel saw on the human-head-mouth door when she was running wildly at midnight on paper again.

Miss Galina, Luvia, and Dorothy all picked up the paper and looked at it, but none of them could see what it was:

"We will investigate for you. The Witch Council, the Zaras Academy of Literature, the Seer Association, there will always be clues. The girls in Moon Bay are preparing to face the dragon, and we can also help you in Tobesk." ===== CHAPTER 2289 =====
