Chapter 3494
The destruction of the 【Pseudo-Human House】 also meant the end of the third act of the seven-act story of the Chosen One of Fate ritual. Although it seemed that Xia De led people to solve the trouble, all the candidates also had intricate connections with this matter.
Although Shi Dai La did not enter the 【Pseudo-Human House】, the remedial ritual for the All-Souls Festival she participated in played a vital role in the final battle; although Mr. Clown Mo Ti Si did not participate in the frontal battle, he and his companions cleared the obstacles for Xia De and brought that set of Golden Lion armor.
What the old man Cha La Tu of the 【Prophet Association】 and the unknown candidate of the 【Bad Luck Sect】 did, Xia De did not know, but since the demon had blood-stained script pages in its hand, the priest with the unique hairstyle of the 【Ten Thousand Numbers Return to One Society】 must also have a major connection with this matter.
After all, the ritual only required participating in the story as much as possible to make the story more exciting, and did not require being a positive character. Xia De hoped that Shi Dai La could play a positive role in the story, but she looked more and more like a supporting character in the protagonist group who couldn't help much but could play a key role; Mr. Mo Ti Si had made up his mind to do his "clown" identity well, and he understood fate better than Shi Dai La. And whether the cultists would miss the villain's position after finding that they couldn't defeat Xia De head-on, it's hard to say.
And after the incident, brand new content appeared on everyone's snake skin.
Not only the snake skin of Shi Dai La, who was a candidate, but also the snake skins held by Ai Mi Li Ya, Duo Luo Qian, and Ke Lai Er gave brand new descriptions.
Ai Mi Li Ya and Duo Luo Qian were both Chosen Ones, and their participation in the story would not have immediate gains. They would only get "gifts" when the story of fate ended, so the content on the snake skin only described what they did in this incident.
It was Ke Lai Er's "luck" on the snake skin that was improved again, but the role positioning that the great witch of the sun missed was still "minor supporting character":
"Wait a minute, why is there still no change? Did I still not do enough?"
She really didn't do enough, and didn't even enter the interior of the 【Pseudo-Human House】, just attacked the building outside with other witches.
It was Shi Dai La's snake skin that had such a description—
【Flesh and blood turned into a disaster in the season of ice and snow, and the weak you once again failed to become a sword-wielding warrior to face the enemy. Watching others' efforts and playing a small role at the end, are you unwilling to accept your own powerlessness? But it doesn't matter, you have never possessed the power of flesh and blood, but the power you have long possessed is responding to your call. Winter has not ended, snowflakes are still flying, and the story has not ended.】
This sounded like it meant that the strange chill in the white-haired girl's body would make her more powerful, but Shi Dai La herself had no perception of this, but she also admitted that she really wanted to help, but was too weak.
And as a reward for completing this act of the story, although her role was still "protagonist candidate" and her luck had not changed, she had gained new abilities:
"I can now barely see a person's death fate. It's not seeing how much lifespan or vitality they have, but seeing what they do that will lead to an increased probability of death."
She briefly described it to everyone:
"After opening the ability, there is an extra layer of black fog in the field of vision. The thicker the black fog on the head, the easier it is to die. It also applies to people with higher levels than me... everyone is very safe."
"In the seven-day story of the ancient god mentioned by the ice maid Xia De said, what corresponds to the 【Pseudo-Human House】 is indeed that the god refused to be resurrected, so Shi Dai La got similar abilities? I don't know what the other candidates got."
Ke Lai Er said. Shi Dai La's ability looked like a death-type ability, but in fact, it was also very common for fortune tellers to look at death dates for others. The powers of the ancient gods overlapped and covered the whole world, so this phenomenon was quite normal.
Xia De, who had no snake skin but had a "Fate Manual," of course also received the "participation award" after the story ended. It was just that even though he had been participating in the story from beginning to end this time, and he defeated the final enemy, what he got was still just a temporary boost in luck.
But fortunately, Xia De didn't care much about this, but Duo Luo Qian asked Xia De if he wanted to do something while his luck was very good.
Xia De touched the deck in his pocket and looked at Elder Ha La Er De who was talking to Ke Lai Er. After hesitating for a moment, he shook his head, feeling that it was not good to bully the elderly like this.
After lunch, Yin Yi Yi Lu Na and Ai Mi Li Ya went to the unicorn nest together. Ai Mi Li Ya wanted to teach her the skills of taking care of injured unicorns. The work of Black Stone Security Company was not without holidays, and she planned to have a good vacation at the foot of the snowy mountain today.
After a full meal, Ellie's mental state was significantly better. As for its physical condition, Xia De and the witches conducted a careful examination. The injured state was actually lifted after the unicorns' ritual ended, and after this incident, Ellie's power was significantly enhanced.
Its physical fitness had far exceeded the level of a unicorn that had just reached adulthood. According to Ai Mi Li Ya, even those truly adult unicorns might not have as strong physical fitness as Ellie:
"After she truly grows up, I'm afraid she can wrestle with giant dragons."
The unicorn's spellcasting ability could not be easily detected, but the elements and spirit possessed by Ellie itself had been significantly improved, obviously also benefiting a lot from this incident.
And the faint pink scar on the side of its neck that could not be erased no matter what proved the permanent influence of the pseudo-humans' power on it. Ai Mi Li Ya was actually looking forward to Ellie being able to shapeshift into a human. The little elf thought that this way Ellie could go into the city to play with her:
"If Ellie really masters shapeshifting, maybe she can teach this trick to little Li An Na! When I was a child, I thought that if little Li An Na could also turn into an elf or a human, we could go to school together!"
The elf girl with pointed ears said to Yin Yi Yi Lu Na with a smile, and Yin Yi Yi Lu Na, who considered herself more mature than her two friends Ai Mi Li Ya and A Jie Li Na, considered more things:
"I always feel that in this story of fate, a unicorn that might shapeshift into a human suddenly appearing is definitely not a coincidence. But what would this mean?"
For Ellie's situation, Ai Mi Li Ya and Xia De would pay long-term attention. Ellie fell into the blood lake to save Xia De, and it acknowledged Xia De as its master, so Xia De naturally had to take responsibility.
Even if it wasn't that the risk of raising a unicorn in Tobesk was too great, he even considered taking Ellie home as "Pet No. 2" after the story on Fatumunster Island ended. It just so happened that he bought No. 7 Saint Delan Square before the Year-End Festival, and the space of the two houses was large enough.
"Meow?"
However, Xia De later thought that it was really not good to trap a unicorn that loved freedom in a house. Unicorns are different from lazy cats, so after the story of the snowy mountain ended, Xia De would ask for Ellie's opinion to see if it wanted to continue living on the island or go to the academy to live with the unicorn group.
The church people didn't leave the town all afternoon. They also had to discuss with the elders how to strengthen the defense of Keier-Tode Town. Although only Shi Lun City and Keier-Tode Town were attacked at night and in the morning, and the coastal villages were not attacked, the city and the town were the two largest human gathering areas on the island. In fact, this attack could be regarded as targeting the entire island.
As for the information that the reflection of the Flesh City came from the 【Pseudo-Human House】, it was finally passed out by the witches, but it seemed that the Prophet Association also knew about this at noon.
But this matter also involved the participation of demons, which was information that neither the church nor the prophets knew. The demon-slaying team of the Five Gods Church had not left the town yet. They were still checking the remains of the demons after they died in Keier-Tode Town—demons would not leave corpses after they died, but after the church received news from the black market that the weapon demon was active again, they hurriedly returned to the urban area.
Miss 【Sun Emblem】 Ka Mi Er Yi Deng was still on the island, but since the demon displayed the terrifying ability to catalyze a Sage-level relic into an Unknowable-level relic for a short time, I am afraid that more thirteenth-ringers would come to the island next. The story of fate is about to reach its climax.
Of course, it was not just church members who came to visit the town this afternoon. At 2:00 PM, Mr. Mo Ti Si sent a letter to the Snowy Mountain Hall. Because the recipient was "the owner of the white horse," the letter was transferred directly to Xia De's hands.
Xia De was originally discussing with Fu Luo La whether her "unicorn shapeshifting" had reverse feasibility. After opening it and seeing that it was Mr. Mo Ti Si who had arrived, he took little Miya, who was taking a nap, to the town and met the "clown" at the herbal shop of "Potion Merchant" Mr. Sa Jin Te.
This time he didn't wear a mask. When Xia De entered the door, he was talking to Mr. Sa Jin Te about the latter's shop earnings during the All-Souls Festival:
"If I had known that setting up a stall in Keier-Tode Town during the All-Souls Festival was so profitable, I should have come in previous years."
Mr. Sa Jin Te's shop was too small, and the pier was now full of church people. In the end, Xia De borrowed a place from the elders and went to the warehouse in the town to talk to Mr. Mo Ti Si.
The town had a warehouse specifically for storing food and daily necessities. In winter, it was full of food, and there were some vegetables that could be stored in the cellar. Now that most of the winter had passed, the warehouse looked empty. Xia De remembered Ke Lai Er saying that she liked to come here to play hide-and-seek with her friends when she was a child.
"Mr. Watson, the matter of the 【Pseudo-Human House】 can be considered solved, right?"
Mr. Mo Ti Si first asked about the morning's events. He also helped a lot, so Xia De naturally wouldn't be stingy about sharing information.
