Chapter 3122: Seed of Salvation
The spider's mouthparts opened, and crimson spider silk sprayed toward Xia De, but the spider silk was immediately blocked by a small silver shield with a double-headed eagle emblem urgently summoned by Dorothy. The shield disappeared immediately, and the writer lady saw the clue:
"This kind of 'Fate Weaver' is similar to a phase spider. If you are touched by its spider silk, you will be randomly teleported!"
Luweiya, who also saw the clue, said:
"The two spiders are in a symbiotic state. They must be killed at the same time with one blow. They are immortal if only one is killed!"
"Doctor, Detective, gather them together in five seconds!"
Priest Ao Gu Si said while retreating from the battlefield. The spider silk of the two spiders sprayed toward him at the same time, but Dorothy just pointed, and the space around the spider silk twisted, and they entangled each other and disappeared.
"Adele's Time Stop!"
Xia De pointed at the enemy in front of him, but the light trace of the crystal had just floated out, and the spider immediately broke free from the shackles of time stop.
"Time resistance is so high?"
The spider legs tapped the ground to make it retreat quickly. At the same time, Xia De's two great sin chains shot forward from his sleeves. The blood-red spider jumped violently wanting to jump to avoid it, but Luweiya, who was at the outermost periphery of the battlefield, seized this opportunity:
"Word Spirit: Spider Weakness!"
The half spider that jumped up fell to the ground, and was then tightly entangled by the two great sin chains. Although its time resistance was high enough, it didn't have much resistance to the power of "sin".
And behind Xia De, Dr. Shi Nai De, who was facing the other half of the blood-red spider, also tacitly used binding spells after Luweiya's word spirit took effect.
The space resistance and time resistance of this "Fate Weaver · Twin Spider" were surprisingly high, so by borrowing the power of "Fanni, the demon who increases desire", Dr. Shi Nai De dripped a drop of "Human Pus" into the ground under his feet, and then hundreds of black arms stretched out from the ground under the spider.
Those black slender arms looked fragile, but their color was deeper than shadows. When the pus of humanity touched the blood-red body of the spider, even the color of the spider was gradually dyed black.
The spider silk wanted to spray, but was immediately sealed by the pus of humanity. Hundreds of arms firmly imprisoned it, but the wriggling arms themselves were disgusting.
Seeing that the doctor and Xia De had controlled their respective opponents, Dorothy said at this time:
"You two move away, don't block my view."
The two immediately dodged to the side, and the writer lady stared at the two spiders, opened her arms and clapped inward violently.
When the two palms clapped together with a bang~, the two spiders that were originally located at both ends of the warehouse appeared out of thin air in the center of the warehouse and stuck together.
The shadow parts overlapped, and the two spiders that only had half were forcibly spliced into one by Dorothy.
The five seconds of time just reached the end at this time. The "Fate Weaver" would only be damaged by the same move once, so in order not to waste the opportunity, the priest specially prepared the most secure power:
"Finger of Death!"
After the black light flashed, the spider that was still struggling just now stopped trembling. The body was covered with a layer of decaying gray luster, and two seconds later, the spider corpse lay on the ground and didn't move.
Xia De and the doctor walked over to confirm the situation. Priest Ao Gu Si was confident that there was no problem, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and Luweiya said to Dorothy:
"When you moved them just now, did you use space movement on them?"
"No, it's space reduction. The space between the spider and the spider was deleted, so they stuck together."
Dorothy answered. This move was learned by Princess Lei Qianya from the Zalas Literature Academy.
Under the priest's instant death spell, the split spider of course had no possibility of survival. Even after the spider died, they actually re-fused into a whole, which was originally forcibly put together.
Because this battle was very short and didn't make too much noise, everyone didn't rush to leave immediately. After all, they still had to wait until the next destination.
The doctor melted the corpse with potion and went to take care of the hypnotized horse. So far, two "Fate Weavers" had appeared, and he still needed to report the situation to the Academy.
Xia De was responsible for moving the remaining parts of the disgusting red spider into the carriage, and separated them from the remains of the first spider.
Luweiya exerted the specialty of a diviner to eliminate the traces left by everyone, and Priest Ao Gu Si stood guard outside after Xia De untied the "Moonlight Thorns". The streets in the West District of Tobesk at night were actually crowded with pedestrians, and he would notify everyone in the warehouse to leave when he found an opportunity when no one was at the warehouse door.
Dorothy was not assigned work, so she followed Xia De into the carriage, watching Xia De hold a parchment with precautions written on it, and chanting spells at the two spider remains. This was to prevent the two "Fate Weaver Spider Silks" from merging with each other. The Academy hoped to hand in the remains of each "Fate Weaver" separately.
"Are you and Little Mia the only ones at home tonight after you go back?"
The writer lady asked in a low voice, Xia De didn't answer because it was inconvenient to chant, so he just nodded, and the blonde girl smiled:
"I'll tell Luweiya in a while, let's go to your place together. It's troublesome for us to go back to our respective apartments so late, so it's better to go to your place nearby."
Xia De nodded faster while chanting, so Dorothy asked the question she really wanted to ask:
"After you came back from the Southern funeral, I also went to your place a few times. The oil paintings painted by the artist are indeed outstanding... But didn't she promise to paint seven paintings? Why did I only see six?"
Xia De looked at her in surprise, and after chanting the last small paragraph of the Kromor spell at a fast speed, he drew a head-to-tail circle around the two spider remains with his right index and middle fingers together, and then asked her:
"Wait a minute, you wouldn't know about the artist's actions in advance, right?"
"Why would you ask that?"
Dorothy, who was also thinking about the oil painting that belonged to her like Princess Lei Qianya, asked. Xia De didn't see any clues from her expression, just thought his inspiration was wrong, and didn't expect her to say apologetically:
"Okay, I really don't like lying to you. I did know about it long ago, but I forced her to admit her mistake to you and the other person involved after the fact... That artist promised to give me and her each an oil painting of you. Detective, you know that for us, this is a reward that is hard to refuse."
Xia De looked at her in the carriage:
"If you and her want to see... hmm, although it's strange to say so, aren't I by your side? What's the need to ask for oil paintings?"
The writer lady shook her head because Xia De didn't understand art:
"Vases are also things you can see at any time. Then why can the vases painted by some painters be sought after by people at auctions at high prices, while the vase itself as a model will not be cared about?"
After speaking, without waiting for Xia De to persuade them to give up the oil paintings, she stuffed the card in her hand to him:
"Look at this, the content on it is very interesting."
The third 【Fate Observer Card】 was indeed not an ordinary product. Rubbing the side where the text was just generated with his fingertips, he could feel the concave and convex patterns formed by butterflies in different postures.
Of course, when looking with eyes, the surface of the card was still flat, and the front presented a bright red background, but because this kind of red had a relatively high transparency, it didn't look dazzling.
The card background was a group of dancing red butterflies, and the middle part was two figures who were back-to-back and only showed their side faces. The two figures with shoulder-length hair looked like women, but only the figure on the left had vague facial features.
The letters on the card were spliced together by pieces of butterfly wings. Those words looked crooked, but after getting used to it, Xia De felt that this had an artistic beauty—
【Name】: Dorothy · R · Lu Yi Sha
【Race】: Human
【Physical State】: Empathy/Butterfly Transformation
【Soul State】: Twin/Telepathy/Blessed (Silver Moon)/Fusion (Slight)
【Special State】: Red Butterfly Blessing (16/21)/■Chosen■(World Protection)/Seed of Salvation
【Level】: Ringed Sorcerer · Eighth Ring
【Legend Degree】: ■Space#*%'s &■Chosen■
【Fortune】: ↑
【Fate Maxim】: Unity, this is the method; Fate, this is the possibility.
The content of Dorothy's card was obviously much more complicated than Luweiya's just now, and there was also a 【Special State】 item that Priest Ao Gu Si and Luweiya didn't have.
The "empathy" of the body and the "twin/telepathy" of the soul should all refer to the relationship between her and Princess Lei Qianya. They can share senses with each other, and Xia De is the biggest beneficiary among them.
"Butterfly Transformation" should be the manifestation of them being influenced by Grace and Helen, and as for the slight fusion of the soul, Xia De had already known about it, but because the method of finding 【Red Butterfly Card】 was now suppressed.
The blessing (Silver Moon) was the same as what was shown on Luweiya's side, but it was not known whether it was the influence of "Moon Seal" or whether they were influenced by the essence of Xia De's soul when their souls collided.
Dorothy's level was no problem, the chaotic runes in the 【Legend Degree】 item were obviously "Chosen One of Space", this card seems to be able to feel the power of ancient gods, but does not have the power to manifest it.
It's just a pity that "Hamilton Detective Story Collection" has only been published for less than two years. If she can complete the complete story and let this story spread for hundreds or thousands of years, Dorothy's "Legend Degree" should have an extra label of "Mother of Detective Novels".
As for the special state, 16/21 should refer to the 16 days that have passed since the last Red Butterfly Day, which is easy to understand. As for the "Seed of Salvation", Xia De understands it as the seed of a possibility for Dorothy and Princess Lei Qianya to save the world.
PS: Why is "Seed of Salvation" not Legend Degree? Because no one knows, and they haven't saved the world.
Why is Priest Ao Gu Si's "Angel Possessor" Legend Degree? This Legend Degree comes from the Death Announcer Angel, not the priest himself.
