Chapter 3250: Diagnosis
Xia De immediately remembered Miss Owl's reminder last night:
"After the Speaker confirms the time of her visit, you must tell me in time. I will try my best to hide at Victoria Street and not come out."
The witch, with one hand on her waist, smiled very happily:
"I thought you would say that the Speaker had also known you for a long time."
"How is that possible? Do you think I have secretly controlled your Council?"
Then Xia De saw the witch looking at him with a strange look, and she suddenly said:
"Stella, help me review how many Great Witches this gentleman knows."
The white-haired girl, who was looking at Emilia and the unicorn through the crack of the door with other girls, was startled because she didn't expect to be called:
"Teacher, Miss Bernice, Miss Winstone, and Miss Sylvia."
"This is close to one-third, and Vanessa among them is one of the only two 13th-tier witches in the Council. If you really want to do something to more witches, it's not without opportunity."
She said this to Xia De, and Xia De was still shaking his head:
"I always feel that in your description, I am the kind of... well, a very bad person."
【Isn't he?】
"She" said with a smile, while Claire Reinhardt just stood in the small courtyard on the side of the castle in the warm winter sun, looking at Xia De. Her expression was a bit sentimental for a moment, and she asked softly:
"Then will you hurt us?"
The girls near the crack of the door all pricked up their ears to listen to this conversation. Xia De looked at her, looked at her very seriously, and shook his head:
"I swear to the moon, I swear to little Mia, absolutely not."
A very gentle expression appeared on the witch's face, and then she was surprised to see Xia De's clothes in front of his chest rising and falling significantly, and finally, a small furry head poked out from between the buttons:
"Meow?"
The cat, with a sleepy expression, woke up because it heard its name being called. It was also brought out by Xia De today.
"Meow?"
The cat's little head looked toward the direction of the "unicorn nest" again. It smelled the scent that Xia De brought back when he went home last night.
Emilia's diagnosis of the unicorn took nearly two hours, during which everyone outside the door heard her "talking to herself", and then the unicorn let out a "Neigh~" from time to time.
By the time the diagnosis was over, it was almost lunch time. Hearing that a "pure-blooded elf" from out of town was visiting, Elder Harald specially invited Emilia to have lunch in the banquet hall of the Snow Mountain Hall. It seemed that these traditional tribes respected pure-blooded elves very much.
"The last time a pure-blooded elf visited us Fatu people was three hundred years ago. Claire, why didn't you say earlier that there was such a guest? Don't neglect the guest."
This was also the first time Xia De had eaten in the banquet hall of the Snow Mountain Hall. Although there were less than ten people participating in lunch, the meal was still delicious, and there was no "Golden Grilled Fish".
During lunch, Emilia also brought out a very professional diagnosis result. She was really professional, but the little elf was worried about the result:
"That child said her name is Ellie. From the unicorn's age, she is a female unicorn individual who has just reached adulthood. In addition to the obvious wounds caused by the demon power discovered by Xia—I mean Mr. Watson, this child's body temperature is significantly low, and she has obvious symptoms of malnutrition. Her weight is one-fifth lighter than a normal individual of the same age.
When I checked her carefully, I also found that her mental state is also very bad, but I'm not sure if this is caused by the demon power or her past experiences."
"Can these problems be solved?"
Elder Harald asked with concern. The Fatu people welcomed this holy beast that symbolized "purity" to live here temporarily.
Emilia nodded confidently:
"They can all be solved. Unicorns have strong survival abilities. I will open a diet plan for her for the next three months, and let Mr. Watson treat her external wounds in stages, while I will prepare some nutritional supplements. Although her weight is lighter than a normal unicorn, these are all minor problems, and it is easy to let her return to normal."
"Did you ask where she came from?"
Xia De also asked, and Emilia nodded but shook her head:
"This child is very different from the unicorns I have been in contact with. Her way of communication is... weird. She said she originally followed a very powerful human woman, and later one day she was suddenly frozen by ice. After the ice melted, the human companions and unicorn companions she was familiar with were all gone.
She lived on the island alone for a period of time, wanting to wait for everyone to come back. About ten years ago, the guy who hurt her broke into the 'home' where she woke up and drove her out. She was afraid of that thing, so she had been hiding at the foot of the mountain for these years and didn't dare to walk around. Malnutrition was also caused by this. The island's products are not very rich."
"That demon is really bad."
The white-haired girl said in a low voice, and everyone agreed with this point.
"But it still chose to appear to help me yesterday, it is very brave."
Xia De exclaimed, but the unicorn was not here, it was still resting in its nest.
"Then did it always live on this island before it was frozen by the so-called ice?"
Miss Reinhardt asked, and Emilia shook her head again:
"Her description of the place where she lived is very vague. She seems to have been to many places, but most places are covered with ice and snow. Unicorns and humans, elves have different ways of understanding the world. Many environmental information they describe is completely different in our eyes."
After she finished speaking, she tilted her head and said:
"But she clearly said that she had always lived with her own kind, and could accurately describe the characteristics of her friends. But I don't know any of the unicorns she described. Where are there such large-scale strange unicorn populations in the material world? Is it a space hidden like the legendary 'Dragon Island'?"
"Elder Harald, are there any legends about unicorns locally?"
Xia De asked the old man wearing a bull-horned hat, and the latter shook his head very firmly:
"Absolutely not. When I went to visit Vilda and the others this morning, I confirmed it. Perhaps the unicorn was transported to this island from afar after being frozen. And it might have been frozen for a very long time, that might have been hundreds of years ago."
Emilia shook her head:
"No, no, Ellie said she had just reached adulthood before she was frozen. Judging from her age now, the time she was frozen should be very short. Plus her description of her activity time on the island, she was attacked by the demon in 1845, and thawed around 1833, so she wouldn't be frozen earlier than 1830."
But nothing major happened on Fatu-Monst Island in that era, and no information about sighting unicorns was circulated. However, the resistance of unicorns is almost as high as that of dragons. Being able to freeze a unicorn is not something that can be done casually.
Xia De summarized this matter:
"Unicorn Ellie was frozen and then thawed on the island. During the period, she might have guided the old forest ranger around 1835. She was driven out of her residence by the demon ten years ago, wandered alone at the foot of the snow mountain, and finally met us yesterday... So, it is very likely that the demon is still hiding in the place where Unicorn Ellie used to live?"
"Where did the unicorn used to live?"
Miss Reinhardt asked again, and Emilia organized her words before answering:
"She said the place where she woke up was a very beautiful ice and snow castle. That should have been built by the master she once followed. She originally wanted to guard there and wait for her master and companions to come back, but she didn't expect a demon to break in.
I asked her how to get there, but her description was also chaotic. She was very afraid of that demon. After being driven out of her home, she tried to go back twice, but was injured by the demon, and never dared to go back again."
The kind little elf also made the same exclamation as Miss Larsen:
"That demon is really bad."
Of course, although the unicorn couldn't describe where the "ice and snow castle" was for the time being, it could find the way back itself, which meant it could lead everyone there.
It's just that Unicorn Ellie's physical condition is not good now, so Xia De wanted to wait for its injuries to improve a little before trying to find the demon's traces. This period is also enough for Dr. Schneider to carry out demon-hunting preparations.
Emilia said that although it takes a long time for the injured unicorn to fully recover, it only takes half a week to restore basic mobility and combat effectiveness. It should be able to lead everyone to set off around Thursday or Friday this week:
"But in this way, I'm afraid I have to come over once a day to monitor her recovery."
"It doesn't matter, I will be responsible for picking you up."
"Then when you go to find the demon, can I come to help too?"
The elf girl with pointed ears, who was drinking delicious vegetable soup, made a request to Xia De. The elf girl with pointed ears, who possessed power, on the one hand, longed for more new adventures, and on the other hand, also wanted to help Xia De like her friend Iluna.
So Miss Reinhardt couldn't help but remind her:
"That is an Ancient Evil Spirit. Although you have a 9th-ring level, but..."
Emilia's emerald green eyes lit up, and she was about to introduce how "powerful" she was now, but Xia De had already smiled and opened his mouth:
"Let's wait until the time for action is confirmed before we talk about it. When the time comes, I certainly won't be the only one going. Since the Church has already dispatched personnel to this island, we must call upon them to act together. And as for that 'Sun Emblem' lady, the power she displayed last night was truly astonishing. If there is a hierarchy of strength among thirteen-ring sorcerers, she must be in the strongest category."
Elder Harald then thought of another thing:
"Speaking of which, the Church sent someone to ask us today if we knew the Ringed Shushi who was riding a unicorn last night. I said we hadn't seen him either."
