Chapter 3457: The

Adele looked at the people gathered together talking. She had actually seen that archway just now and had answered that question. She didn't have a deep feeling about "struggling against Fate," and she didn't know why she had completed the so-called "Pilgrimage of Fate" when she hadn't touched Fate at all.

When facing the question of the archway, her answer was "The Witch Council can unite, and everyone walked to this point holding hands." And when standing on the ridge, she didn't feel like she had gained anything, just felt increasingly lonely.

"So can we go now? I'll check your body when we get back."

Xia De urged Luvia again, but the purple-eyed girl wearing Xia De's coat still stood under this starry sky with a smile. She was in an exceptionally good mood now:

"Wait a little longer, let me say a few words."

She pointed to the sea of stars:

"This is the best gift pilgrims of Fate can receive. After everyone walks to this point, they all know the true meaning of Fate after seeing such scenery. Most of those who have had an epiphany have given up some things. The diviner who left behind the 【Pedestal of Fate】 back then was like this, and the ancestors of Megan and Audrey were also like this.

As for that traitorous priest, he was probably a diviner, otherwise he wouldn't have walked here. But he came for the treasure, not for the pilgrimage. He didn't see the archway, but he understood here what he had missed.

Although there is no evidence, I suspect he was disheartened by this. He saw the state of mind and harvest of those truly faithful diviners, those diviners who truly dared to struggle against so-called Fate when they came here, and then knew he had taken the wrong path. Finally, he was relieved of his hatred under this starry sky. Years later, sensing that he was about to die, he followed the Fatum tradition and went to that dark lake before he died."

This sounded reasonable, and Emilia's pointed ears twitched, which was when she remembered the key question:

"I almost forgot, that Unknowable-level relic—the Pedestal of Fate is here!"

Except for the unicorns, even the Great Witch of Time, who was hiding on the side, looked at the treasures with various spiritual lights on this ridge that looked like a silver thread.

However, Xiwei was more cautious:

"Luvia, can we take the things here?"

Luvia nodded:

"Of course. The predecessors left these things, which means they have given up their ownership. If needed, we can take all the items here."

But of course, everyone would not do such a thing. Xia De was even hesitating at this moment whether he should take the "Pedestal of Fate".

However, it was not difficult to find that relic here. Although the elements were suppressed, he had seen that relic with his own eyes in the "Black Mist Camp" after all, and the brilliance of the sea of stars was very bright at this moment. He looked around and saw the target at a glance:

"It's here."

He temporarily left the team, walked two hundred meters along the ridge, bent down, and picked up the brass metal object that looked a bit like a crown and was slightly rusted. However, the existence of the nameplate let people know that this was not a crown, but a base. The nameplate read—【Part the Mist to See the Truth】.

When Xia De came back, everyone gathered around, and even the Great Witch of Time took a curious look from afar.

"This is an Unknowable-level relic."

Emilia sighed softly. After getting Xia De's permission, she reached out her finger and touched it, then smiled:

"I am also an elf who has touched an Unknowable-level relic."

Everyone understood her feeling. When Xiwei and Sylvia were curiously observing it, Xia De confirmed with Luvia again:

"We can really take this, right?"

The purple-eyed girl, who had gained a lot, nodded. Both the long-haired and shoulder-length Luvia had the same attitude:

"Taking it doesn't mean we have to use it. I want this. I studied the 【Diamond of Hope】 last summer, but that relic was borrowed by you after all. This time, I have my own Unknowable-level relic."

She didn't think about handing this relic to the Divination Association at all. After saying that, she flipped out the relic 【Mercury Echo】 she used to store divination cards from her pocket. The divination cards were soaked in the mercury of the card box. However, what she was looking for was not this, but the twelve small cards with handwritten text and hand-drawn borders that she had pressed to the very bottom of the card box—

【Command Card: Let Xia De do anything】

【Valid until: General Calendar December 31, 1855.】

"I won't take things from here for nothing. Since I took the 【Pedestal of Fate】, I will leave my own treasure."

She couldn't bear to throw out all the cards, so she just flicked one forward, letting that command card slant into the snow. Luvia was still quite reluctant in her heart, but this was indeed the most precious thing she could take out at this moment.

Adele Isabella looked down at the text on the card by her boots, blinked, and didn't bend down.

Emilia, Xiwei, and Sylvia also saw the content on the stack of cards, so they asked Xia De:

"What is this?"

"Um... a Year-End Festival gift for Luvia."

And so, three girls of different ages and backgrounds all showed expressions of "You are biased" at the same time. Miss Larsen pursed her lips and looked at them, thinking that they had all received Xia De's Year-End Festival gifts. Luvia carefully put the remaining eleven "Command Cards" back to the very bottom of the card box:

"That's fine... If you want that card, you can take it after leaving something behind."

She gave a suggestion, but although the girls were tempted, none of them did so. That was made by Xia De for Luvia. If they really wanted one, they wanted a unique "Command Card" made by Xia De for them personally.

"So, is this the end of the second act of the seven-act story of Fatumont Island?"

Miss Larsen asked carefully until this moment. Luvia turned to look at the starry sky again, sighed, and answered:

"The magic sword broke, and the first act ended. But the second act is different. The pilgrimage path still exists, and others can still come here like us if they have the opportunity. In other words, the story of the first act has uniqueness, but the second act can be re-enacted many times. As for how much one gains, and whether the performance is brilliant, it depends on one's own ability."

"I think our performance this time shouldn't be considered brilliant. After all, everything tonight was a bit inexplicable, feeling like we just arrived here... but regardless, we have completed the second act, which is a success."

Actually, if the end of this pilgrimage site were destroyed, the second act would theoretically be impossible to "re-enact". However, everyone present would not do such a thing. Xia De even felt that even if cultists from the 【Society of Ten Thousand Numbers Returning to One】 or the 【Misfortune Cult】 came here, they would not do such a crazy thing.

However, seeing that Luvia was finally satisfied, he called everyone to go down the mountain. There was no need to climb the mountain again; just fly to the foot of the mountain from here. Luvia, who was injured, could let Little Liana carry her.

This time Luvia did not object to leaving, but Xia De looked at the things scattered on the snow and found that there were even books and notebooks among them, so he thought of the matter of Danister.

"Wait for me a moment."

He said this, and after using the wonder 【Moon Library】 to unfold the library behind him, he reached out toward the silver thread of the ridge:

"Are there any notebooks or books left by Ms. Helena Carter?"

This was absolutely not a "library" or "study" scene, but the wonder was successfully activated. It was a pity that there was no result. Xia De was not disappointed; after all, he was just trying.

"Then are there any notebooks or books by Mr. Astrologer Euclid?"

And so, with a *whoosh*~, a book with a silver-white gradient cover flew into his hand. A book that could be printed like this must contain occult knowledge. The cover of the book was a huge silver moon, and the title was "Relics of the Moon".

"That astrologer actually really came here?"

Xia De was a little surprised. He patted the book and tried to record it in the library, which also succeeded smoothly. However, although he did not take the original copy of this book, he still searched his pockets like Luvia just now, and finally left the relic derivative—Greed Brand—that he had obtained when he killed the "Mimic" in the Vesta Forest.

The effect of this relic was to enhance one's own greed, but when encountering a scene of "probability of obtaining something", wearing this silver medal would increase the probability of obtaining items. Although Xia De often carried it, he actually did not like this thing condensed by the Seven Deadly Sins, so he didn't even think about giving it to the girls:

"I abandon my greed here."

He said with a smile and threw the silver medal into the snow. Then he scanned the surroundings but did not see that blonde figure:

"Luvia, you said where did Miss Sabel go? Will she walk here?"

The purple eyes carried a smile:

"She will appear again at the right time, don't worry about her. But I have confirmed that Miss Sabel is our friend; she is not a bad person with ulterior motives."

Xia De nodded and went to check Ellie's situation. Everyone had just seen her protect Luvia. At this moment, the unicorn was still shivering and was being comforted by Emilia. She had been scared out of her wits. However, when Xia De handed over an apple, she still accurately bit it.

Sylvia then asked Luvia again:

"You just said that diviners who come here to complete the pilgrimage will leave behind one of their own items. Then do Xia De and Miss Larsen need to do this additionally?"

"No need, that is a voluntary act. Since Xia De and Miss Larsen only completed the pilgrimage but didn't understand any truth, they don't need to do it deliberately."

The purple-eyed girl, who was riding on Little Liana's back with Xia De's support, said. Seeing Ellie also walk over, she casually pulled a tuft of hair from Ellie's back, and the unicorn didn't mind.

"Then what did you leave behind?"

Xiwei also asked her. Luvia rode the unicorn and flew high into the air. That tuft of unicorn hair fell from her hand toward the snow surface of the ridge:

"I left behind my candidate qualification."
