Chapter 3156

~11 min read 2,004 words

Everyone pretended not to hear the doctor's words:

"Next, we still have to apply for higher-grade courses; we definitely won't be idle this year."

Duoluoxi looked down at her report card and said happily, while Priest Ao Gu Si looked at the flames in the fireplace:

"It's better to be busy than to find nothing to do. Wasting time when young, it's too late to regret when you reach my age. We can all try to participate in the skip-grade exam like Xia De at the end of this year."

"Priest, double the grade means double the courses and double the exams."

Luweiya reminded, and Xia De gave his own experience:

"The biggest difficulty in skipping grades is actually more course papers, which all have to be handwritten and cannot be done with a typewriter."

"Alright, alright, when did you become so active and hardworking?"

The doctor smiled and stopped the continuation of this topic:

"In short, the exam week ended smoothly, and everyone can rest for a few days. Regarding the application for high-grade courses, remember to give it to me before the end of the month. Also, Anate, don't forget your joint training plan. Oh, take your souvenirs before leaving in a while; that's what I brought back from Wintercastle City in the North."

"How is the weather there, Doctor?"

Duoluoxi then asked:

"During the Year-End Festival, Tobesk had such a big snow."

"The night I left Wintercastle and went north into the glacier area, I stayed in a shelter overnight."

"The weather in the first half of that night was not bad, but in the second half of the night, there was a sudden blizzard. I have never seen that kind of weather; the howling wind was even more terrifying than the roar of a demon. I think even someone as well-informed as the priest must have never seen the scene I saw that night..."

The charcoal fire in the stove was crackling and burning, the heat above the tea cup Luweiya held was curling, Little Leaving Xiao Leaving Xiao Miya was lying on Xia De's lap enjoying the warm afternoon time, and everyone listened carefully to the doctor describing his trip to the North.

After the exam ended, everyone relaxed. There were still a few hours before dinner, and there was nothing to do on this Sunday afternoon. Xia De felt that everyone was very likely to sit on the sofa like this, listening to the doctor use all the remaining time of this afternoon to describe his magical and dangerous trip to the North.

"But this seems not bad either."

The outsider thought so, gently stroking the cat that had been fed lunch by Luweiya, who finished the exam first at noon. He always walked very fast, and before setting off again, using this lazy afternoon to kill time could be considered a fairly complete period for his winter vacation.

Luweiya and Duoluoxi both knew about Xia De's outing plan. Although they understood that Xia De was like some kind of "announcer," once he set off, he would definitely lead to major events, and he would also be deeply trapped in danger because of this, but Xia De's outing was indeed something that had to be done.

After the exam week ended, Xia De didn't go to rest again. On Monday, the next day, which was the fifth day of the Month of Birth, he prepared to set off.

The original plan was still to use the "Bai Shi Crystal" and the method of increasing luck as before to locate himself directly to the space maze located in the "Star Fall Bay" area.

But very coincidentally, although Xia De got a piece of "Bai Shi Crystal" from the academy around the Year-End Festival, he didn't get the method to slightly increase luck with a slight cost—

"Everyone needs luck recently. Starting from the second half of 1854, this kind of item has become very popular. If you are willing to wait, I should be able to help acquire it next month, but there is definitely none now."

This was Old John's answer to Xia De, but even if he didn't use the Bai Shi Crystal this time, Xia De could go directly to the peak of the snow mountain on Fatumonster Island, the largest island in Star Fall Bay, with Silvia's help.

Doing this for a long time is of course very troublesome, but he thought he would go to that area and walk around first, on one hand waiting for the appearance of related relics or magic potions, and on the other hand, maybe he could find the entrance to the 【Space Maze】 located locally while walking around.

Anyway, if he wants to go home, he just needs to throw Princess Lei Qianya's crystal shoes, and he doesn't need Silvia to send him back again, so the girls don't object to his way of going out.

And when Silvia left Tobesk a few days ago, Xia De had already informed her of his travel plan, so after waking up early on Monday morning, Xia De ate the breakfast made by Luweiya and waited for Silvia to pick him up:

"It feels like life has finally gotten back on track like this."

Luweiya, who was frying eggs in the kitchen wearing an apron, didn't look back; the diviner lady who enjoyed the knight alone last night was in a very good mood:

"I'd rather you didn't get back on track. In short, you've gone to a strange place again, so you should be careful. If you need help, just call someone over at any time."

"Got it, Luweiya, you don't need to worry about my situation. After I arrive at the snow mountain, I will go directly to Fatumonster City, the Time Wheel City in the south of the island. Do you need me to bring you a pocket watch as a souvenir?"

Luweiya smiled, placed the plate in front of Xia De and the cat, and after taking off her apron, sat down beside Xia De:

"Just come back safe and sound. But there is one thing Duoluoxi and Princess Lei Qianya didn't let me tell you before the Year-End Festival; now I think you can know. Remember when we participated in the experiment, the content of the fate proverbs on their two cards?"

"Of course—【United as one, this is the way to save the world; the land of fate, this is the possibility of liberating the shackles】."

Xia De touched Little Leaving Xiao Leaving Xiao Miya's head to signal it could eat, so the obedient cat started to eat. Xia De had already guessed what Luweiya wanted to say:

"So, the so-called 'land of fate' you divined for them is actually Star Fall Bay?"

Luweiya also picked up the knife and fork:

"More precise than that; I am a high-ring diviner now. The result points to Fatumonster Island, which is your destination in a while."

Xia De laughed, so he had guessed before that even if he never went out, more things would definitely happen around him to force him to go to the Lagson Principality.

Seeing Xia De just laughing without saying anything, Luweiya knew he had been prepared for this:

"Since you don't intend to rest, then what you said to Professor Garcia yesterday about planning to open a time key again in the near future is also true, right?"

"Yes, I haven't had a time adventure for two months. If there is nothing to do after coming back from the south today, I will open the key directly; I even miss those strange time adventures a bit."

"The number of adventures represents the number of times you can date ancient witches; of course you should become diligent, the great war in the future will depend on them."

Today is the first Monday of the brand-new 1855. After enjoying the breakfast cooked by Luweiya, Xia De didn't forget to take the first "gift" of this year.

The last gift of last year was just a piece of ordinary biscuit; Xia De thought this was because he didn't pray devoutly. It just so happened that he had nothing to do before Silvia came, so after eating breakfast, Xia De took the gift box upstairs.

When Luweiya finished washing the bowls and came to the living room wiping her hands with a towel, she happened to see Xia De sitting on the sofa, holding Little Leaving Xiao Leaving Xiao Miya with both hands and then swaying left and right to perform a mysterious "ritual" she couldn't understand.

In short, after washing his hands clean and obtaining luck by touching the cat, Xia De reached his hand into the box full of expectation:

"Luweiya, do you guess I will suddenly obtain a relic that has almost no cost and can increase my luck?"

"If that were really the case, Silvia would definitely be very disappointed."

Luweiya and Little Leaving Xiao Leaving Xiao Miya were both looking forward to Xia De's hand being pulled out of the box, and what appeared in his hand was actually a bullet.

"I originally thought the banknotes, daggers, and other gifts you took out before were excessive enough, but I didn't expect that the god would actually use bullets as gifts for children... So is this week's task that you must shoot a mortal enemy?"

Xia De shook his head:

"Of course not, this week's gift is to wipe the silverware in the house. But this bullet is not right; this seems to be a relic."

He let the bullet slide into his palm, then raised his hand to let it appear in the sunlight. The originally brass-colored bullet immediately turned crimson and even felt a bit hot, and the whispering elements became more obvious.

Xia De checked the appearance of the bullet and found that there was a circle of letter marks on the primer of the bullet that were almost impossible to observe with the naked eye:

【The sun is eternal.】

Luweiya shook her head to indicate that she hadn't heard of what this was either, but Silvia, who had just walked up from downstairs, had heard of it:

"Poet-level relic 【Fist of the Sun】. It sounds like some kind of strange spell, but it's actually just a bullet."

"This kind of bullet can only be triggered when aimed at the sky in the sunlight; otherwise, no matter how you pull the trigger, it will have no effect. After being triggered, the muzzle will spray a beam of sunlight, and then no matter what the weather is at this time, it will be forcibly converted into a clear day without clouds."

"Even in rainy and snowy weather, there is sunlight, so basically as long as it is outdoors during the day, this bullet can have an effect."

"Forcibly changing the weather? The effect of this relic is quite good. But I remember that this kind of relic that can cause large-scale environmental changes is at least a Document-level evaluation."

Xia De said, but Silvia shook her head:

"The conditions for using this bullet are very harsh. In addition to the sunlight and muzzle position I just mentioned, the most critical thing is that only relic-type firearms with whispering elements can trigger it, which greatly limits the possibility of it being misused."

"Relic-type weapons are already rare, and relic-type firearms are even rarer. As for the negative characteristics of this bullet, it is a certain probability of causing a drought disaster year in the local area."

"Doesn't Xia De have a relic-type firearm? That 【Gun of Kindness】 that 'doesn't hurt oneself or others'."
