Chapter 2698: Ancient Elf Musical Score

Because she was placed in the same position as the demigod witch, the young woman who was secretly happy in her heart had no expression on her face:

"Don't say such things to me. You often say such sentences specifically to tease young girls to Miss Jia Lin Na, Fannisha, and the others, right... I'm not saying I'm not young."

Xia De laughed, rummaged out an 【Eternal Youth Leaf】 from his pocket and handed it to her:

"Resisting death relies not only on warmth, but also on the power of nature. Since you are proficient in natural transformation, I give this to you. It is good for you."

"So, you intend to use a gift to buy me off?"

The gray-black-haired witch asked, but actually regretted saying such things.

Xia De shook his head and looked at her:

"It's not buying off. I just want to use this as tuition. Didn't you want to teach me the local transformation art?"

The witch was speechless for a moment, but since there was an excuse, she took the leaf and put it in her skirt pocket:

"Let's say it first, I am very strict as a teacher. Xiaoluoti knows this very well."

Then she added in a low voice:

"Just now I just wanted to know how you view our relationship, not wanting to make things difficult for you."

Xia De then held her hand. Flora certainly wouldn't break free. Later, when following Xia De to continue walking into the museum, she didn't hide her smile either.

There were no clues Xia De expected in the museum. After strolling for a whole morning, they returned to the hotel for lunch. In the afternoon, for the convenience of action, Miss Bell went to contact the manager of the music hall, claiming that Flora Winslet was considering whether to participate in this Sunday's "Creekwood Town Harvest Concert," so she wanted to spend money to rent a small hall for practice.

The "Harvest Concert" is also a tradition passed down from the Creekwood Town era, but the townspeople at that time only held small town campfire banquets. In short, this city now celebrates every traditional festival in the form of a concert. And renting a performance hall for practice didn't encounter any trouble. Flora's reputation was not blown out, and the Golden Music Hall itself had such business.

So in the afternoon, Flora took Miss Bell and two followers, plus Xia De, to the music hall with musical instruments. Having not performed on stage for a long time, the artist young lady couldn't take her eyes off the piano placed on the stage.

"Do you want to wait for you to play a piece, and then we will continue to explore here together?"

So Xia De asked. The witch politely refused once, and only agreed after Xia De said for the second time that he also wanted to hear piano music.

The witch chose a serenade with a brisk rhythm. When she sat in front of the piano, she couldn't help but show a smile, and when she really started playing, she showed great relaxation or even pleasure.

After the song ended, Xia De and the young ladies sitting in the audience applauded together, and the lady with gray-black hair stood up and bowed to them.

Then she arranged for her apprentices and followers to continue making some sounds in the small hall, while she prepared to go out with Xia De.

"Wait a moment."

Standing in the aisle of the auditorium under the stage watching Miss Bell and the others tuning their instruments, Xia De pulled Flora, who had arranged things:

"In the morning, didn't I say that I learned some witch secret arts from the past? There is one that should work on you. I want to try the effect."

"You mean the echo of that Witch Emperor? Do you want to do it here?"

She showed full awe, but Xia De shook his head immediately:

"Not that one, that one makes too much noise. I mean that spell related to the Fire-Holding Nun, 【Inner Fire】."

Saying this, he pressed his hand on his chest, and a few seconds later he took out a ball of golden light:

"This is the temperature of the soul."

Saying this, the ball of light pressed toward Flora's... Seeing Xia De's hand stop, the witch smiled and surrounded the ball of golden light with her hands:

"I'll do it myself."

The scorching temperature was almost like it was going to burn her hands. She carefully pulled Xia De's hand, pressed the ball of warm light into her chest, and then closed her eyes and took a deep breath:

"Oh, this is really..."

The emptiness of the soul seemed to be completely filled at this moment. The warmth diffused to the entire soul and body even made her feel like she was being held by Xia De in a warm water pool.

Since coming into contact with the power of death, she had never felt the warmth of her soul so vividly. This warmth was not just temperature. Even if she closed her eyes, she could feel like she was being touched by Xia De's soul at this moment. It's just that after this warmth that didn't last long disappeared, what it brought was a greater sense of emptiness of the soul.

Opening her eyes and looking at Xia De in front of her, she even wanted to hug him now. Xia De certainly didn't know her thoughts, but asked curiously:

"How does this feel? Is it more effective than the potion 'Warmth'?"

"More effective, but it's just effective."

She bit her lip to maintain her calm, thought about it, and asked again:

"I remember you said that you can also extract the temperature of other people's souls. Let's try to see if my soul still has any residual warmth."

Saying this, she grabbed Xia De's hand and put it on her chest again. Xia De cast the spell immediately and then took his hand away.

Just like Miss Brock, Miss McConna, and Mr. Nelson, Flora's soul temperature was also light yellow. Xia De's hand was like holding air, but he could feel the warmth in that ball of air:

"Although it is indeed slightly lower than the temperature of other souls, it is still warm."

He evaluated it like this, and then pressed that temperature into his chest. Flora seemed a little shy, but still asked:

"What does it feel like?"

"Hmm... it's hard to describe, but it feels about the same as when I hug you."

"Really, saying such things again."

The young ladies on the stage watched the two people under the stage "flirting," and didn't know if they should remind them that their words were all heard by the people on the stage.

Flora didn't care about those eyes. At this moment, following her own heart, she opened her arms and hugged Xia De. She put her head on Xia De's neck, feeling the warmth of the soul in her body. She wanted this continuous warmth, not short-lived passion:

"Actually, before that dream, I... I won't mention that dream again. You are right, there are many memories that can be created in reality."

She whispered, and then confirmed that with the current hugging action, Miss Bell and the others on the stage couldn't see anything, so she licked Xia De's neck lightly.

After Xia De made an "Oh!" sound and pushed her away, the witch's smile became even more moving.

After leaving the rented small hall, seeing that there was no one in the corridor, Miss Owl asked Xia De again if he wanted to kiss and took action, and then the two continued their exploration of the Golden Music Hall.

Because they had already obtained the blueprint of the temple ruins before the renovation of this music hall, they could conduct targeted investigations on the structure on the blueprint.

It seems that everyone in Vesta City is very busy. During the exploration, they accidentally ran into the secret gathering of the Drin-Oll restorationists under the name of "Trauma Mutual Aid Group," Prince William Anjou with an injured right arm secretly meeting his lover, agents of unknown parties secretly monitoring Prince William Anjou meeting his lover, and finally the church team disguised as police, who also seemed to be looking for something in the music hall.

Luweiya's divination result was very accurate. The key is indeed in the musical notes.

There is a waterproof interlayer between the third floor of the music hall and the roof, but that is actually the top of the original temple building. At four o'clock in the afternoon, Xia De used the Miracle Art "Turn Stone into Mud" to dissolve part of the roof, and finally found some strange symbols on the ancient stone surface inside the interlayer.

His "Language Comprehension" could not interpret these symbols, and Flora, after identifying them, believed that these were not letters of ancient characters, but musical notes used in ancient times:

"I haven't seen these ancient musical notes either, but judging from the change rules and shapes of the dots and lines, they do conform to the norms of music in ancient times.

Although there are differences between ancient musical notes and modern ones, the history of the evolution of musical notes is much simpler than the history of the evolution of characters, and as long as you find the rules, it is easy to correspond ancient musical scores to modern musical scores."

She asked Xia De to rub those symbols from the roof. After identifying those symbols, she made a new speculation:

"This is too short, obviously not a complete piece of music. This should only be a small melody. I will hum it for you."

She tried to find the rhythm and really hummed that melody, and Xia De, who knew ancient elf culture, felt that this was a sonata in elf style.

It's just that although that melody was successfully hummed, there was no change around:

"Could it be that you need a specific musical instrument?"

So Xia De continued to dissolve the ceiling, and finally successfully found a small piece of text written in ancient elf language. This is quite ancient elf text, probably even Emilia wouldn't recognize it.

And with Xia De present, there was no need for translation. He easily understood that passage:

"Complete the melody into a complete piece of music and perform it publicly in the temple."

So the witch smiled confidently:

"So without me, you can't do this yourself."

It just so happened that the excuse used when renting the music hall this afternoon was that Flora was considering participating in the Harvest Festival Concert this Sunday. So before evening this day, Miss Bell went to contact the manager of the music hall and the Vesta City Hall that hosted the concert, and very smoothly let Flora get the qualification to perform on Sunday night.

It seems that because the danger encountered on Tuesday was too great, the actions of the whole day today were surprisingly smooth. There were no strange ring warlocks, no relics that suddenly ran out, no out-of-control tree holes, and anything could achieve its purpose.

If there was any "accident" that occurred on this day, it was probably the matter before leaving the music hall in the evening. ===== CHAPTER 2699 =====
