Chapter 283: Spoils of War

Xia De put away the ring, let the cat sulk there, and then continued to discuss the ownership of other items on the table.

"【God's Gift Box】 belongs to Xia De."

Luweiya said, and Miss Beiya had no opinion on this:

"But what exactly is the function of this Sage-level relic?"

She was very curious, and Xia De picked up the stack of paper on the side, which was the research material left by the cult:

"Three positive characteristics and one negative characteristic. First, it is what the church has already recorded. Every Ringed Shushi who touches the gift box for the first time can obtain a synthesis formula to synthesize high-level relics from low-level relics. But the box only provides a possibility. The cult that has already perished did not succeed, and the Silver-Eyed One did not succeed either."

"There is no record of success in the church's records either."

Miss Beiya added.

"The Academy is the same."

Miss An Na Te also added.

Xia De then shook his head:

"So, this characteristic is actually not clear. And judging from the Silver-Eyed One's end, greed has to pay a price."

Xia De did not obtain the so-called synthesis information when touching the box, because what he obtained was divinity.

Moreover, based on his understanding of that god, there was no reason for his final work to add this function. In Xia De's view, this kind of "synthesis" was probably feasible, but it must be abnormally difficult. It was probably a small joke made by that god.

"Secondly, this box can accommodate abnormal items, whether it is other strange things or relics. Yes, as long as it can be put in, any relic placed in the box will absolutely not lose control. And..."

Xia De paused:

"Relics in an out-of-control state, as long as the volume is enough to be stuffed into the box, can also return to normal."

"Worthy of being a Sage-level relic."

Luweiya sighed.

"This is really not bad, but there should be an upper limit, right?"

Miss Beiya asked again.

"Of course there is an upper limit, but the cult people didn't explore it either. After all, this is God's creation. Relics that can be unaffected by the box probably also have to be related to gods."

It was a pity that this metal box was too big, otherwise Xia De would definitely carry it with him.

"The last characteristic, and also the true characteristic of this gift box. During the period when a child holds it, they can receive a gift from the box every week. The box can only produce one gift a week, so there is no situation where a team of minors is organized to receive gifts. This gift is manufactured based on existing items in the material world. It could be ordinary items, or supernatural items, which is to say, this relic has the possibility of perfectly replicating another relic. As for the type of gift obtained, it is not completely random, it is influenced by what the child holding the gift thinks in their heart, but it is highly likely to be just ordinary items."

Xia De said, stroking the metal cube box:

"By the way, the gift I received this week was the thing that emitted golden light in the ruins and scared away the cracks."

"This... worthy of being a Sage-level relic."

Luweiya sighed again.

Compared with the 【Ancient Witch's Gold Necklace】, which is also Sage-level, the function of 【God's Gift Box】 is more complex. It is difficult to compare which relic is better, but in Xia De's view, what truly belongs to him is definitely better.

"Xia De, you said that the box thinks you are a child? In this way, you can hold it for at least more than ten years?"

Miss Beiya's tone revealed envy:

"Children rarely can awaken Ringed Shushi talent, this relic is probably most suitable in your hands. But I don't understand, why can only children receive gifts?"

Xia De leaned back slightly on the sofa, and the appearance of the young man wearing a ridiculous clown hat appeared in his eyes again:

"Because, this is a gift for children."

The positive characteristics of 【God's Gift Box】 are very good, and the negative characteristics are also equally powerful.

After an adult touches the box and obtains the synthesis formula, there is a one-fifth probability of losing the memory of childhood, a one-fifth probability of dying directly, and a one-fifth probability of going crazy directly.

This relic is extremely strict with non-child holders, which is no wonder Miss Galina thought it was best not to have ideas about this relic when she first talked to Xia De about it.

During the period when a child holds the box, they receive a request at the same time as receiving each gift. For example, feed a pet once, kiss their parents. If the request cannot be met, they will fall into nightmares every night for a week.

That is a nightmare from God, even a Ringed Shushi is very likely to get lost.

Miss Beiya was worried about this, but Xia De didn't care:

"I saw Him in the past, this is a truly kind god. This god will not be so harsh on children. Even if the request cannot be met, as long as you apologize sincerely, the punishment will definitely be reduced."

The female diviner showed a look of reverence, and Miss Beiya said softly:

"It's really amazing."

I don't know if she was evaluating Xia De or evaluating that Ancient God.

The discussion of 【God's Gift Box】 came to a temporary end, and then it was the 【Puppeteer's Script】 with only three pages left. This thing had five pages, but the first two pages were painted black, which should have been used by the vampire himself.

"Take it away! Don't let it get close to me!"

The two ladies hadn't expressed their views yet, and Xia De immediately shook his head, as if this relic was something with a curse. He gritted his teeth, his expression abnormally firm:

"Absolutely, I will absolutely not use this kind of thing. Take it away, don't let me see it!"

Xia De hadn't forgotten the lesson of using dice to manipulate fate last time, which almost resulted in him dying on the street. Luweiya looked at him holding the cat with amusement:

"Xia De, in fact, fate is not as terrifying as you imagine."

"Regardless of whether fate is terrifying or not, I will absolutely! Absolutely not touch this kind of thing!"

Xia De had completely learned his lesson.

"Yin Yi Yi Lu Na, do you want this?"

The purple-eyed female diviner asked again, and Miss Beiya heard what she meant:

"It doesn't matter, give me whichever one."

"Then I will keep these three pages of paper for the time being, this is very useful for my divination."

Luweiya looked very happy.

Thus, of the six relics harvested, only the blood-stained iron scissors and the mercury bottle remained unallocated. Miss An Na Te took three pages of 【Puppeteer's Script】, and the remaining two items were divided equally between Xia De and Miss Beiya.

Because they still didn't know what this was, the two decided the ownership of the 【Relic】 by drawing lots. Finally, Xia De took the mercury bottle, and the scissors belonged to Miss Beiya. Xia De could go to Old John for identification, which was charged; while Miss Beiya could identify it at the church, which was free of charge.

Up to this point, all the finishing work related to the ruins and the god descent last night was completed. The plan prepared for a week ended like this, and the three sat here safely, which was the best ending Xia De could think of.

Miss Beiya suddenly turned to look at Xia De:

"Oh, forgot to say, thank you for your eyes."

She pointed to her left eye. Xia De and Luweiya both looked over. The brown eye seemed to lead directly to her soul. From the appearance, this eye was no different from her normal right eye, but since it was a gift from a god, it certainly wouldn't be just an ordinary eye.

"Very beautiful eyes, Xia De, I know this gift was not given to me by God, it was given to me by you."

She looked at Xia De:

"I actually was prepared to be one-eyed for a lifetime... thank you. I noticed that you still use the address 'Miss Beiya' to talk to me, call me by my name directly in the future."

"Alright, Yin Yi Yi Lu Na."

Xia De sighed slightly, picked up the Mia cat that was dozing after eating:

"I'm glad you like it. Speaking of which, do you have anything else to deal with recently?"

"The Chosen One brings not only power, but also knowledge. I have to organize it recently, and I will tell you things that are valuable. Next week, I will probably go to the Vatican, but I will be back soon."

Yin Yi Yi Lu Na said enthusiastically.

"The first Chosen One has appeared, I have to start looking for the second one. The only blood money cannot be consumed at will, I think I have to find some other ways."

Luweiya was a bit worried:

"Xia De, what are you planning to do?"

"After the martial law is lifted tomorrow, I will go with the doctor to take away the 【Forged Philosopher's Stone】."

"I can help you divine the danger at that time, of course, just ordinary divination."

The diviner proposed.

"I can make the church's patrol team not approach that area within ten minutes, I have some power in the church now."

The brown-haired young lady also said.

"The patrolling police, I also found someone to help transfer them away. In this way, this matter is finally coming to an end."

Looking at the night view outside the window with her head tilted, it was midsummer now. Tonight, under city-wide martial law, was probably the calmest night in Tobeisk this year. ===== CHAPTER 284 =====
