Chapter 3371
Tonight, Luweiya and Duoluoqian would go to No. 6 St. Deran Square to try to make the ancient ink of the Fatum people. Therefore, although he had obtained the information for the further strengthening of 【Night Watcher】 from Dannister, Xia De planned to wait until they succeeded before using the remaining 【Philosopher's Stone】 with the magic sword fragments to strengthen 【Night Watcher】, which would be safer.
During the day today, Xia De was going to meet Major Lades. Sylvia, who came to the tower with him, had to return to Willendale first, and then would deal with the portal issue with the Red Butterfly girls.
"Xia De, see you next time, I felt very good last night."
The black-haired girl with a gorgeous complexion hugged him gently in the portal room of the tower, and then held Xia De's hand and kissed him reluctantly, before walking into the portal to Willendale while looking back three times.
Fatumunster Island was also snowing lightly today, and such weather was actually fine. The meeting time with Major Lades was 9:30 in the morning. Because there was still some time, Xia De didn't rush to leave immediately.
He walked out of the main entrance of the tower, stood on the ancient stone steps looking at the vast snow mountains, and opened his arms to the sun behind the dark clouds for a long time:
"Praise the sun!"
The miracle was activated, slightly enhancing his physical strength and spirit recovery speed. Then he kept his current posture unchanged and continued to cast spells:
"Photosynthesis."
The light of the sun slowly poured into his body and then turned into spirit. Although the speed was not particularly fast, this miracle could actually be turned on all the time, and there was no requirement other than "staying still," and the spirit obtained by casting spells was much more than the consumption.
The power of a high-ring Ringed Shushi lies not only in the power of miracles, spells, or physical fitness, but also in the many passive effects they possess. The outlander was even the kind of Ringed Shushi who didn't care much about passive miracles and spells because of his fast promotion speed, but even so, after turning on a few miracles, his combat power was much stronger than in his normal state.
But what he wanted to do at this time was not to turn on various passives like "morning exercises" and then go down the mountain, but after obtaining a fast enough spirit recovery speed, Xia De pointed his right finger at the higher mountain peak not far away:
"Miracle - Moonlight Ray!"
The pure silver light was shot straight out, and gradually evolved into a "light cannon" with Xia De's spirit output. Just because pure moonlight is not very damaging, even if the light left traces in the air and finally touched the snow-covered mountain peak, it did not cause any destructive effects.
"Basic spells..."
He remembered the words of the werewolf girl in yesterday's dream again. For moonlight-type miracles and spells, there are actually only four basic spells. Any other moon-type power can be considered an extension and deformation of these four spells—
Light spell, Moonlight Slash, Moonlight Ray, Moonlight Soothe.
Xia De mastered the first two when he was at a low ring, and although he didn't learn "Moonlight Soothe," he directly learned the advanced version of "【Cynthia's Silver Moon Blessing】." It was also because of this that his use of moonlight was more inclined to attack rather than healing power.
Although "Moonlight Ray" and "Moonlight Slash" are both inclined to attack, the former is inclined to energy release, and the latter is the transformation of moonlight form.
For Xia De, who has entered the ninth ring and possesses "Moon Fire," it seems meaningless to think about "Moonlight Ray," but Xia De knows that the werewolf girl chasing the moon will not give advice casually.
【Moon Fire, what kind of change has it brought to you?】
"She" asked softly in the sky full of drifting snow, and Xia De could give an answer:
"Moon Fire makes some miracles undergo qualitative changes on the original basis. For example, the Undying Fire Seal has a 'Moon Seal' form because of Moon Fire; Dark Moon Grace also changes from fire shining on all things to the moon shining on all things because of Moon Fire."
Thinking about it this way, 【Moon Fire】 seems to be able to make specific miracles undergo qualitative changes. According to legends, those god-chosen ones who mastered Moon Fire in ancient myths also used 【Moon Fire】 as a basis to enhance some of their abilities.
It is very rare for someone like Xia De to directly shoot Moon Fire as an attack method. Because directly radiating "Moon Fire" is really very spirit-consuming, even the god-chosen ones of ancient times couldn't withstand Xia De's way of using it.
In fact, Xia De couldn't withstand it either, he just had a variety of recovery methods, so he dared to do so.
"Direct radiation of Moon Fire is a waste of spirit to a certain extent, far less efficient than using Moon Fire to qualitatively change miracles."
He summarized in his heart, and since 【Moon Fire】 can qualitatively change the other two miracles, it can of course also take effect on moon-type miracles.
Xia De looked at the vast snow mountains and stretched out his fingers again, trying to shoot Moon Fire in the way of using 【Moonlight Ray】.
This is very simple, after all, although the form of Moon Fire and fire light is different, the essence is the power of the moon. And 【Moonlight Ray】 and the 【Sunlight Ray】 that Xia De is proficient in only differ in the nature of the emitted energy, and he is very familiar with this way of casting spells.
After trying several more times, Xia De, who gradually mastered the technique, pointed forward:
"Moonlight Ray!"
It was still a silver light trace bursting from the fingertips, but this time it was not just a simple burst of light. After the silver light trace flew into the distance, silver light shadows like fire burning remained in the air.
If the front was not air, but obstacles like stones, this blow would be enough to form a small hole penetrating the stone surface. And if the front was not stone, but evil undead or monsters, this blow would be enough to pierce any tough skin and armor.
The miracle 【Moonlight Ray】 did not change, it was just that Xia De used it to shoot Moon Fire, or used "Moon Fire" to sublimate "Moonlight." This unique way of casting spells did not weaken the effect of "Moon Fire" itself too much, but the spirit consumption was greatly reduced.
In other words, instead of directly releasing Moon Fire, but using the way of 【Moonlight Ray】 to cast spells, this blow can be completely used as a conventional combat means, and this is only because Xia De learned basic spells.
"Miss Bister was really right."
He stared at his fingers and thought about whether he could develop other forms of this blow. Or, whether "Moon Fire qualitative change" could be promoted to more miracles.
Xia De's "Moonlight Slash" and "Moonlight Wheel" had been developed into four different form changes in the low ring and mid ring, and he had enough talent in manipulating moonlight.
However, continuing to carry out further miracle form changes was not what should be done now. The meeting time with Major Lades was almost up, so Xia De returned to the tower and came to Victoria Street from the portal room.
Meeting Mr. Motisi yesterday was at a remote lighthouse at the docks, but meeting Major Lades didn't need to be so troublesome. He found a relatively large tavern at the docks and arranged to meet Xia De directly at the tavern, and even agreed to prepare their respective Luo De card decks in advance.
This seemed to return to the past time. In the traveler camp tavern on the Wind Path of Mid-Hill Fort, at the crossroads tavern of Green Lake, they were all gathering and talking like this.
Of course, compared to the tavern next to the border barracks and the tavern in the remote countryside, the "Drowned Ghost Tavern" at the docks of the City of Time was much more lively. Even on Wednesday morning, standing at the door of the tavern, one could still hear the noise inside.
It was just that Xia De's footsteps paused, and he looked up at the sign quite surprised, feeling very incredible:
"The tavern at the docks is called this name, and there are still guests willing to come in? Isn't it said that sailors are the most superstitious?"
Then he guessed whether the meaning of "Drowned Ghost" meant that the wine here was very delicious, so that sailors were willing to "drown" here.
They arranged to meet at 9:30. Xia De arrived ten minutes early and didn't see the Major, so he sat down by the wall with a newspaper first. He asked the bartender to bring the most famous wine in the tavern, and then Xia De found that he really didn't like drinking.
The news of the meeting between the representatives of the two countries yesterday had been published in the newspaper, but the newspaper, besides emphasizing that the closed-door meeting lasted for three hours, did not mention any substantive content. Xia De even suspected that the representatives of the two countries who held the meeting played Luo De cards in the meeting room for three hours.
As for Fatumunster Island itself, there was no big news. The newspaper only used the second edition to promote the local "All Souls' Day" which would be held at the end of this month, and gave a recommended itinerary for foreign tourists to participate in the activities.
The schedule for this year's All Souls' Day was three days, during which tourists could participate in the grand bonfire party and celebration activities held in Kyle-Todd Town on the first night. The location was on the open space at the docks of Kyle-Todd Town. Recently, people in the town had been preparing for it, but Claire said this part was the least important part of the entire All Souls' Day.
By 9:30, Major Lades still hadn't appeared, but he wrote a letter to Victoria Street yesterday to confirm the time and place of the meeting with Xia De, so he definitely wouldn't forget this matter.
Xia De thought the Major had something to delay him, so he continued to wait while reading the newspaper. About ten minutes later, a northern man with the rank of captain and wearing a naval uniform hurriedly pushed open the door of the tavern:
"The one with the most outstanding appearance... found."
He came directly to Xia De and asked quite politely:
"Excuse me, are you Mr. John Watson?"
Xia De looked up and looked at him in surprise:
"It's me, what's the matter?"
So the officer introduced himself:
"Hello, I am the chief engineer of the White Pearl, Captain Kavi Vernon. Mr. Watson, Major Lades asked me to find you, saying that something happened on the ship, and he is temporarily unable to come to meet you. If you are willing, the Major said you can follow me to the ship first, and the Major will come to see you as soon as he is busy."
