Chapter 3442: Xia De Returns Home
"Flesh of the Firstborn?"
Although Xia De had never heard of a similar concept, since the 【Radiant Dragon】 could use itself to create offspring, the 【Dusk Creator】, who possessed the power of creation, evolution, and flesh, certainly could too.
"More precisely, this is the residual and degenerated Flesh of the Firstborn. Although it no longer has its past power after the end of the Mythical Era, we pseudo-humans are indeed differentiated from this mass of flesh. We are also the 'First Offspring'."
It said calmly, without much pride, but Xia De pointed out:
"The First Offspring should have been created by the Ancient God who held the power of creation, right? But you seem to be things that split off after this mass of flesh had problems—that is, according to your own words, after it degenerated. The Ancient God would not create such weird and disgusting things as you. Ancient races like the Titans are so magnificent and magical; as for you, you should actually be called... a product of error, just like a tumor growing on a human body."
The Outlander actually wanted to say "cancer cells," but this era did not yet have that word.
The pseudo-human on the wall was not angry at all:
"Humans cannot understand this honor; after all, you were not created by My Lord."
Xia De then said:
"First, I don't think the Ancient God would necessarily like you calling it 'My Lord.' Second, since you say humans are not the creation of that Ancient God, do you know the origin of humans? Where did humans come from? Did they evolve from monkeys?"
Then he noticed that the fourth-stage pseudo-human was looking at him with a strange gaze:
"This is the first time I have seen someone insult their own race like this."
It seemed that the humans of this world were not the product of evolution, but seeing that the other party had no intention of answering his question, Xia De did not intend to stay any longer.
If he could find a way to solve or temporarily paralyze that degenerated "Flesh of the Firstborn" and then close this door, then the problem of the 【House of Pseudo-Humans】 would no longer be a problem. As for how to solve it, this was something Xia De needed to investigate next. Although the 【Dark Moon Mark】 was ineffective, he would find other methods... Xia De really hoped the final method would not be for him to eat this thing.
"Alright then, thank you for your hospitality this time. Next time I will bring more friends to visit you, and repay your invitation this time twofold."
Xia De said, and as he spoke, the crystal slipper had already been thrown out.
Although the pseudo-human on the wall did not know what Xia De was doing, it still manipulated the flesh under Xia De's feet, wanting to entangle his legs.
It was too late. As Xia De's figure vanished, a dazzling Miracle light erupted like the sun beside the blood pool, and the center of the light's eruption was exactly the last position of the crystal slipper, which had also vanished.
The flesh on the ground was scorched and melted under the golden Miracle light, and then the flesh in the entire core room was burned with scorched marks in the erupting light.
"Ah!"
A shrill scream rang out in every room inside the 【House of Pseudo-Humans】. A small number of low-level pseudo-humans located inside the 【House of Pseudo-Humans】 could not even maintain their human form, directly exploding into a mass of flesh, which was reabsorbed by the house.
And when the Miracle light in the core room dissipated, Xia De and the crystal slipper were of course nowhere to be seen. The flesh wall on the surface of the core room melted outward by at least thirty centimeters, revealing deeper flesh tissue inside the wall.
The blood pool was evaporated by about three centimeters, and even the "Flesh of the Firstborn" clinging to the door looked as if it had been severely damaged and was listless. If Xia De had seen this scene, he would have understood that the power of a god against this... this went without saying, the power of a god naturally restrained Relics.
It was just that the fourth-stage pseudo-human in charge of this place did not disappear because of this, but after that burst of light, it still stumbled out of the wall, then threw itself into the blood pool, and did not surface for a long time.
(Little Mia is running...)
The crystal slipper landed on the carpet, and Xia De appeared in the living room of Room 1 on the second floor of his home. This was the first time the landing point of this Miracle had appeared in this room, which could also indirectly show the influence of the power given by the Old God on the Miracle.
However, it was a pity that although the blessing for the home was long-term, the blessing for the 【Cinderella】 Maze was one-time.
【Outlander, you have returned home carrying a blessing, and the blessing for the home from the Old God - Lord of the Walls has officially taken effect.】
"She" reminded him gently. No matter what, he had indeed returned home safely. Seeing the familiar scene, Xia De let out a long breath. He originally thought there was no one at home, but he did not expect that as soon as he appeared, Miss Jia Lin Na, with her dazzling red hair, stood up from the sofa at once:
"Xia De!"
Golden eyes looked at Xia De, and then she rushed over.
"Meow!"
But it was Little Mia who jumped from the back of the sofa onto Xia De's shoulder first, and then the Duchess threw herself into his arms. She looked extremely worried. Xia De patted her back, stabilized his own emotions, and then asked:
"Don't worry, it's already fine. So, how long have I been gone? What is the situation now?"
He entered the 【House of Pseudo-Humans】 around four o'clock on Tuesday afternoon, and looking at his window now, the heavy night had descended on the capital of the North, and it was clear that a long time had passed.
It was now 7:13 PM on Tuesday, three hours since Xia De "vanished" in the snowy mountains. Miss Jia Lin Na hugged him tightly and told him the current situation.
At that time, after Xia De vanished in the blood mist and the Blood-Crier Hermons fled, Xiwei contacted Miss Jia Lin Na almost immediately through the Council, and then Miss Jia Lin Na sent Difa to find Luweiya at the Divination Association. Luweiya's divination gave the answer:
"He will appear at home between 7:10 and 7:20, three hours from now. Don't worry yet. I will go to Schluch Lake to see the situation on the spot. Miss Jia Lin Na, you stay at home and wait for news. Once Xia De returns, tell us immediately."
Xia De suspected that Luweiya had used up her last special coin, otherwise it would have been impossible to get such a precise time.
Afterwards, Miss Jia Lin Na had been waiting for news at home until Xia De appeared just now. And now that Xia De was back, he did not immediately talk about what he had encountered, but asked Miss Jia Lin Na to notify the other girls that he was safe.
The Duchess did not want to leave Xia De at this moment. She hugged Xia De's arm tightly, afraid he would vanish again, and then summoned Difa to send a letter to the Council.
The black-haired maid who walked out of the kitchen also breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Xia De return safely. After winking at him with a smile, she took her master's jewelry and, singing a song, entered the old corridor from the hallway. But after she entered the interior of the Council, she found an unexpected person there:
"Good evening, Your Excellency Isabella."
Daylight shone from the white mist high above onto the round table below. Beside the table, Adele Isabella, with her golden hair, sat in the seat of "Time."
Besides her, Vanessa, Bella, and Flora were also there. Megan and Silvia had gone directly to the island. Although Cassandra was not there, Miss Swift, who was also on the island, was waiting for news here at this moment.
Difa greeted the golden-haired Great Witch softly, and Miss Isabella, who had a tear mole at the corner of her eye, looked her over:
"Good evening."
Then she asked Vanessa beside her:
"Although Miss Jia Lin Na didn't come, Miss Servit came, which means the matter already has a result. So, why are you three and Miss Swift appearing here together tonight, waiting for what news from Miss Jia Lin Na?"
There was no collective meeting of the Council tonight. Adele Isabella had only entered the Council because of some matters, and then accidentally discovered that three anxious Great Witches and a witch apprentice were acting as if they were participating in some collective activity.
She realized almost immediately that something had happened on Schluch Lake, and then thought it should be related to Xia De. If she knew nothing, she might not be able to read their expressions, but now she could easily see that her colleagues were worried.
So because of some worry, she also stayed here; after all, she might be able to help.
"We are waiting for news about the pseudo-humans. On Monday night, Tobesk wiped out a House of Pseudo-Humans, and the investigation revealed some incredible things. Those pseudo-humans have mastered some very powerful means."
Flora spoke immediately. The owl lady had already thought of the wording:
"Vanessa's opera troupe was in Tobesk during the winter, the Moon Bay area controlled by Bella also has representatives in Tobesk, Cassandra's auction house has a branch there, and several girls under my command were also in Tobesk recently helping me acquire art, so we wanted to know from Miss Jia Lin Na if the newly confirmed list of pseudo-humans would implicate us."
Difa understood, bowed slightly, and said respectfully:
"Just three minutes ago, my lady received that list. The matter of the pseudo-humans did not implicate anyone closely related to the Council, and everyone you are concerned about is safe."
The witches and witch apprentices all breathed a sigh of relief. Miss Isabella of course also understood that this meant the matter had been successfully resolved, and Xia De should not have encountered any danger:
"But just because of such things, you are waiting for news in the Council; you are all too cautious, aren't you?"
She asked in a lazy voice, still guessing what Xia De had encountered tonight. If it were just a few pseudo-humans, they shouldn't be this worried.
"At this time of year, one cannot be too cautious."
Bella said with a smile. Her apprentice Matilda was at the scene in the snowy mountains at the time, so she was also one of the first to know the news of Xia De's accident. Of course, she would not discuss this now:
"According to Miss Jia Lin Na, on Monday night, there was a rare fire in the city of Tobesk, and the Church attached great importance to this matter. And the means of the pseudo-humans this time were truly astonishing. What's more, Miss Jia Lin Na even learned from Miss Beiya about the deeper secrets of the 【House of Pseudo-Humans】, which is that door, so we were all worried that we would be implicated.
Now that everything is fine, everything is fine." ===== CHAPTER 3443 =====
