Chapter 2956: Isolation Review
"But today is already Wednesday, the soonest is the day after tomorrow?"
Xia De and Miss Dannister almost both saw Emilia's pointed ears stand up. Even after making preparations for so long, when the final moment was really about to arrive, she still couldn't be completely calm.
"Yes, Emilia. The soonest is Saturday, the latest is next Monday. Are you ready?"
All eyes looked at her, and Emilia nodded, facing those gazes:
"I'm ready, I've been preparing for a long time... it's just that the Time War hasn't been completed yet, and I still have three opponents left."
"There's no need to worry about this."
The red-haired girl finally spoke:
"Even if you don't go looking for the 'Clockmaker,' she will come looking for you. As for the other two..."
She glanced at Xia De on the side:
"They will appear before or after we go to war with the paradox worms. Now, what you need to worry about is not whether the Time War can be completed, but the construction of the Chosen One ritual."
"The winner of the Time War turns the brand on the back of the hand into a seed, then combines it with the leaves, branches, and roots of the World Tree, and finally grows a new big tree. And this requires the Chosen One to have traveled through time, which will give the seed nutrients."
Emilia said what Xia De had told her, and these contents were also what "Emilia" had told Xia De.
The old elves discussed in low voices:
"Sounds very reasonable, so is there anything else we need to do?"
Miss Dannister had already explained it to her on the way here, so Emilia said directly:
"I can complete the Chosen One ritual myself. It's just that before that, we will inevitably have a battle with the paradox worms and even the local Ancient One. The Church and the Academy are actively preparing, and even Dragon Island, the Witch Council, and other Ringed Shushi organizations will participate in the war.
I hope the elves can provide as much help as possible to Vesta Woodland, although I am not yet... the Queen."
She actually felt quite ashamed to say such things:
"But I still hope that my fellow clansmen can support us as much as possible."
"This is certainly no problem. After Qishala brought the news of your return a few days ago, we have already been arranging this matter. Now that the date of the Chosen One battle has been determined, we are all looking forward to the day you become the new tree."
The old elves all said so, even the Moon Elves who didn't believe in the Tree Father actually hoped that in this era when the Elven race was gradually declining, a leader with leadership could appear.
Now the Tree is still there, the Moon is still there, but the first era has passed for a long, long time. When stories became legends, when legends became myths, and when myths turned into smoke and dissipated in the dust of time, new green shoots seemed to have been born among the ancient races that had entered the corners of the world.
It is just that, as an outlander who perhaps cannot even be counted as human, he is unwilling to see an elf turn into a great tree. The story of Ms. Helena Carter happened in the past and is already a foregone conclusion; he cannot change it, but for Amelia's future, he still hopes to keep it in his own hands.
【You have a deep desire to control her.】
"Her" voice appeared among the elves, and Xia De did not deny this point.
The news that the Chosen One ritual would be held as soon as Saturday also startled the witches, but fortunately, there were no materials or ritual means that needed to be prepared in advance this time, so even knowing the time, it only accelerated the speed of dealing with the paradox worm army.
After dinner that day, Xia De, who had chatted with Emilia again, found Xivi and Vanessa:
"Help me contact the Church. I want to see the Bennett family. Forget it, I'll go see the members of all three families. It's best not to let the Church pay special attention to Bennett now."
"Under what pretext and in what capacity do you want to go?"
The two Great Witches with the highest level and highest seat asked. Xia De stood on the deck and looked at the moon in the night sky. I don't know if it was because the full moon was approaching, or because of the influence of the "Crazy Moon" last night, the three moons in the night sky tonight were all shining amazingly.
It was just that dark clouds had already drifted from afar, and presumably, they would cover the moon before long:
"Have the Church prepare a set of clerical robes for me. I'll pretend to be a member of the Church's clergy and try to contact them. In addition, if the Church asks what the God-Caller wants to do, just say that the God-Caller wants to confirm whether the suspects found by the prophets really have problems; the God-Caller trusts herself more than the Church."
"You are indeed qualified to say such things."
Xivi smiled, hugged Xia De's neck, and kissed him on the side of his face:
"I'll find someone to notify the Church right now. Everyone's efficiency is very high now. You prepare and set off in half an hour."
Saying that, she turned and walked toward the cabin, while Vanessa said angrily:
"Xivi must have seen that I can't kiss you with my current height, so she did it on purpose."
Saying that, she beckoned to Xia De. After Xia De lowered his head, she hugged his neck and kissed him on the side of his face:
"Then Xia De, can the problems on us 13th-tier Shushi be solved in the end? I don't want to stay in this body shape forever, and I don't want to go through puberty again."
"Sister Daelin said that she can cooperate with the Chosen One of Time to clear the time curse. The problems on you shouldn't be as strong as the time curse, right?"
"That's good. I don't want to drink age-increasing potions every time. Although I can see that you are very satisfied with my 18-year-old appearance, Xia De, I still prefer you to like the most real me."
She said with great grievance, so Xia De asked with a smile:
"Vanessa, then if you were given a chance now to let you become 18 years old forever like Miss Dannister, would you be willing?"
The little witch nodded without thinking:
"If it doesn't affect the level, of course I'm willing!"
"You see."
"This is different... anyway, 18 is fine, and the real age is fine, as long as it's not like this now."
She jumped lightly, like a feather blown by the wind, and came to Xia De's side, then kissed him on the side of his face again.
The Church quickly agreed to this visit by the "God-Caller," or rather, the Church also wanted to know what the "God-Caller" would do.
Miss Dannister originally wanted to go with Xia De, but Xia De didn't agree:
"No need to tell the Church that the God-Caller is actually very familiar with St. Byron's."
However, Luweiya didn't agree to Xia De going to the Church alone, so in the end, Megan was chosen to go with Xia De. After all, among all the witches, their body transformation magic was the most powerful. As for Flora, as long as the Owl Miss was still an owl, no one would let her perform risky tasks.
Male and female robes were sent over. Because Bennett, Fisher, and Koch were in different churches, Xia De and Megan both got three different robes. Xia De was most familiar with the robes of the Dawn Sect where the Bennett family was located. Even though the northern and southern countries were different, the Church's standard attire was the same.
As for Megan, she made herself a bit shorter, made her figure a bit flatter, and her face turned into a plain-looking girl Xia De had never seen before. Later, Megan admitted that except for the face shape, other parts could be considered as turning into a large version of Ajilina, and Xia De told Megan not to say this on the ship:
"Ajilina has always been worried that she won't grow anymore."
"Speaking of which, it's strange."
Megan laughed:
"Both are children born to the same father and mother, but the difference between Ajilina and Leixia is too big, right?"
According to the itinerary, the two were to visit the Creation Sect, the Dawn Sect, and the Sun Sect respectively. The first stop was Baron Fisher's family in the Creation Sect. Although this was not the focus of tonight's itinerary, Xia De and Megan would not treat it perfunctorily.
The Creation Sect sent people to meet them outside the city, and then the carriage took the two directly to the church located in the southwest of the city. The Creation Church in different cities is usually located in the factory area, and although Vesta City has been dominated by the tourism industry in recent decades, it is not without factories.
At this time, the night was deep. Although the nearby factory areas were still lit, the hardworking workers were doing work that exceeded the working hours for meager wages, but there would certainly be no visitors in the church.
The Creation Sect, according to Xia De's request, did not arrange for a 13th-tier Shushi to greet the two, but only arranged for a 7th-tier local Ringed Shushi to introduce the basic situation to the two, and then took Xia De and Megan to the place where Baron Fisher's family was staying tonight.
It is worth mentioning that at present, whether it is Fisher or Bennett, they are not in a state of "formal detention," but can only be considered "isolation review."
Therefore, Baron Fisher and his wife and children were not locked in prison, but lived in special rooms inside the church—suspects of demon possession, ordinary people using relics, and low-hazard out-of-control Ringed Shushi would all be arranged here.
As for more dangerous people, Xia De had never been to the underground part of any church, so he didn't know. But according to Priest Ao Gu Si, generally speaking, the usable area underground in a church is much larger than the area above ground.
The Fisher family was not large. In addition to the Baron and the Baroness, the people under isolation review this time also included their two children and an old butler who had served in their home for more than ten years.
The five people were arranged in three rooms. The Baron and the Baroness lived together, the eldest son and the old butler lived together, and the 18-year-old daughter lived in a room alone.
The Creation Sect originally wanted to arrange for the two to act as "interrogators" to ask the five people questions, but Xia De rejected the church's kindness:
"Since it is isolation and not detention, we must maintain basic politeness. Speaking of which, have they had a midnight snack?"
Subsequently, Xia De took Megan, who was pushing the dining cart, into the three rooms separately and had a simple chat with the five people. Although Baron Fisher was only a baron in a small town in the countryside, it was adjacent to Vilon Dale after all, and he clearly knew what it meant to be under isolation review by the Church in this way, so he would try his best to answer even the questions from the "delivery man." ===== CHAPTER 2957 =====
