Chapter 3462: The Ice Maid's Request

Xia De pointed to one of the descriptions:

"The sentence left by Mr. Euclid is the most valuable—the secret is in the water or underground; the relic part on the ground is just a moon in the water, meaningful but not real."

Xia De looked up at Danister:

"I have been worried that since the tower has been destroyed, would we not be able to find some important clues that originally existed? But since that tower is a moon in the water, then even if the moon in the water disappears, it does not affect the existence of the real moon."

The manager lady pursed her lips and asked:

"You mean, the collapse of the tower actually doesn't matter?"

"No, it still matters very much. The reason for the tower's collapse must not be simple, but now only the 【Truth Society】 might know the original cause. What I want to say is that Ms. Helena Carter probably broke the secret of that tower just like the astrologer. The curse-eroded tree that her corpse turned into is likely at the location of the real tower.

Since it is a moon tower, the way to hide that tower is likely related to the 'moon in the water' mentioned by the astrologer. Before we go to Karas Mountain, Danister, you need to prepare some materials or methods to crack this 'puzzle'.

Or, since Mr. Euclid got guidance in the Temple of Fate, perhaps we can also get guidance there."

She sighed lightly, then threw the book away and hugged Xia De again:

"If I only relied on myself, I really couldn't think of how I could find the teacher."

Xia De also hugged her waist:

"Now the clues have appeared again, this is a good thing, so don't worry about it anymore. However, that astrologer is really amazing. Ms. Helena Carter has the level of thirteen rings and the resources of the entire Saint-Byron, and in the end, she followed the clues of the astrologer to find Karas Mountain.

That astrologer is not famous, and he doesn't look like thirteen rings. Did he actually find Karas Mountain just by himself?"

Danister had also investigated "Astrologer Euclid", but there were not many records left by this ringed sorcerer from a hundred years ago. The records of him by the hermits Xia De found in Vesta Forest already belonged to the very detailed kind.

Danister had once heard from Miss Pawo of the 【Truth Society】 that the astrologer was seven rings when he arrived in Tobesk (Chapter 1081), and the specific year was 1752, which was 101 years away from 1853. As for the astrologer's visit to the forest hermits, it was in the Frost Month of 1750 (Chapter 2583).

For this reason, Danister even carefully read the lists of graduates, dropouts, and missing persons of the three major wonder academies between 1653 and 1752, but did not find the name "Euclid". Therefore, Astrologer Euclid was likely not from the three major academies.

And Luvia had also investigated this name in the Divination Association, but it was clear that the astrologer was not a diviner of the association. Coupled with the fact that there were not many religious terms in the letters he left behind, and he did not use official power when acting, the possibility of his origin from the Five Gods Church was also not very high.

So the origin of this mysterious person is still a mystery to this day.

Danister kept a copy of the book "Relics of the Moon". She wanted to study the other relics recorded in the book, hoping to find their locations through this. Xia De's "Moon Fire" also needs "Moon Rhyme" for further upgrades, and those ancient moon relics can definitely help.

And the manager lady also brought Xia De a surprise today:

"When organizing the underground collection of the library a few days ago, I accidentally found a handbook about evil objects left by a Witch Empress who visited the academy at the end of the Fifth Era. There is a separate sentence in the corner of the handbook. We judge that this is a poem fragment—When the story comes to an end, the dice clatter, jumping out the answer of Fate."

Xia De thought about it:

"Does this refer to the end of the Chosen of Fate ceremony? Indeed, one scene in the Seven-Day Miracle of Mr. Ring is related to dice, so will this scene of the story happen last? Or does it mean that after the seven-act story ends, there will be a ceremony process related to dice?"

Danister couldn't say clearly either, and this required Xia De to investigate it himself.

Xia De stayed at the academy until 9:40. Because Danister had classes in the third and fourth periods in the morning, Xia De left at this time. And arriving at the ice castle on Fatumont Island to see that ice maid was only three minutes later.

The maid lady, who looked cold and icy, actually didn't show cold emotions at all. After Xia De said he had something to ask her for help, she went to make tea first. After Xia De sat down in the reception room, she stood in front of the coffee table with her hands hanging in front of her and listened to Xia De talk about the request for help.

"If you can find the key to the castle, then I will obey any of your orders."

She answered like this, and Xia De tried hard to express his sincerity:

"I don't have any clues about the key for the time being. Can you help me? You can make other requests, as long as they don't violate my own principles."

A smile appeared on the face of the maid Winnie, who looked cold and icy:

"You don't have to say that. I am willing to help with the matter of the 【House of Pseudo-Humans】. But, you need to answer a question for me in the future."

"Okay, what question?"

"The fifth floor of this castle is temporarily not open to you, but there is a room with a '5012' door plate on the fifth floor. In the future, you must tell me what is behind this door."

Xia De can only go to the fifth floor if he gets the key. That was Chloe's private living area, and only the owner of the castle can enter. So this question probably has to wait until Xia De finds the key to know:

"No problem, I can take you to see that door together when the time comes."

The ice maid nodded lightly with a smile:

"Then please notify me when you set off for the 【House of Pseudo-Humans】, and I will face the enemy with you."

Today is the second day of the All Souls' Festival. Unlike the weather with light snow yesterday, Fatumont Island welcomed very good weather today.

"It feels like spring is coming."

Claire, who was waiting for Xia De at the entrance of the Snow Mountain Hall, said, looking behind Xia De to confirm that he was alone this time, and then hugged him and said very aggrievedly:

"Didn't dance yesterday, you can't break your promise again today."

"Yes, yes, even if I have to wait until midnight, I will definitely dance with you before leaving. But aren't you going to have a meeting in the council tonight? Do you still have time to participate in the Snow Mountain Hall banquet and dance with me?"

"Of course, the meeting won't take too long. Do you need me to bring Ellie to the council and register it under my name? From now on, I am also a witch with a unicorn!"

The elements that were unusually turbulent during the All Souls' Festival actually calmed down a bit on the second day of the festival, but according to Claire, the turbulence of the elements at night would be even more severe than last night. She was responsible as the high priest and couldn't leave, so she talked with Xia De in the courtyard of the Snow Mountain Hall for a while before leaving Miss Larsen behind and going to find Elder Ursa and the others.

The white-haired girl and Xia De watched her leave together. When Xia De looked at her, she also looked at Xia De and asked in a low voice:

"Then Mr. Hamilton, what are your plans for today? The lady said you can't run away, and let me follow you all day today."

The matter of the Pilgrim's treasure came to an end for the time being, the doctor wouldn't come here until tomorrow, the snake tooth was still soaking in the Lower Spring, and the unicorn Ellie's body was much better, so Xia De didn't need to worry about it.

It seemed that there was nothing for Xia De to do on the island. He looked at the good sunshine outside and asked again:

"Are Matilda and the others still in town?"

"Little Miss Aurora came over half an hour ago and went to the city with them again. They said they wanted to confirm the matter of the pseudo-humans again and would probably be back in the evening."

"Then let's go to town and walk around casually. There is no need to leave Kyle-Todd Town. Maybe there are other things that need me."

But in fact, before the sun set that day, no one came to ask Xia De for help.

He spent the morning strolling around town with Miss Larsen, buying some interesting souvenirs to take home as ornaments; he had lunch with Claire at noon, went to see Ellie and Little Liana, and then remembered Miss Sabel, so he went to the roof and stood for a while.

Because there was really nothing to do, and Xia De was unwilling to use the fishing suggested by Miss Larsen to pass the time, he said to the girl:

"I want to visit friends in Time Wheel City. Do you want to follow me?"

The white-haired girl nodded immediately:

"I won't leave even a step."

The so-called "visiting friends" was to find Major Lades. The first two times he went to reminisce with him, he encountered the Infinite Snake once and the pseudo-human once, so neither of the two reunions could be considered pleasant. But in the calm All Souls' Festival now, Xia De felt that he shouldn't encounter anything this time.

However, unlike the first two times, Xia De did not make an appointment with Major Lades in advance this time, so he planned to try his luck. If he couldn't find the Major, he would go to the Radiant Messenger to kill this boring afternoon.

As a result, he had just landed on the pier of Time Wheel City in a small boat carrying the white-haired girl when he saw the Major's figure from afar.

However, Major Lades was not taking an afternoon stroll, but mediating a fight on the pier. A circle of people had already gathered. Xia De didn't need to ask around to know that about twenty minutes ago, the off-duty Delarian naval soldiers had a conflict with the Karsenrik sailors here, and the two sides fought fiercely and even once wanted to pull out their guns, so Major Lades, who happened to be nearby, rushed to mediate.

At this time, the naval officers from the Karsenrik side had also arrived at the scene, and neither side wanted the conflict here to escalate.

Just watching the conflicting soldiers being separated, Major Lades was also communicating with the brown-haired Karsenrik naval major about the cause of this incident, when a voice suddenly came from the crowd of onlookers on the Karsenrik side:

"Isn't this Napoleon Lades? I saw him among the prisoners when I was watching prisoners in the army before!" ===== CHAPTER 3463 =====
