Chapter 3570

The third category is the rarest and most inexplicable situation. The material world will naturally give birth to the "Ring of Destiny," which appears directly without any signs. The society also attributed the "Infinite Snake" to this category, and believed that they all reflected some kind of destiny that was bound to come.

And outside of the origin, the society even explained the methods they found to use the Ring of Destiny.

It is not embedded in the body, nor is it forged into a Blade of Destiny with the power of "cornerstone." The Ring of Destiny and the destiny arc can enhance the power of some aspects just by carrying them, and the prophets found a way to "activate" the Ring of Destiny to enhance the power of the carrier to the greatest extent:

"In any ancient sacrificial place, hold and raise the Ring of Destiny, and then throw the destiny dice. The effect is not to bring good luck to oneself according to the points of the dice, but to activate the Ring of Destiny for different times according to the points... limited use time."

Megan read out this part of the text:

"Ancient sacrificial places are easy to find. The Dragon Feast Sacrificial Site, the Night Temple, and the Initial Fire Sacrificial Site all meet the requirements. In this way, the prophets are consuming dice to use destiny... The method we found in the council to forge the Blade of Destiny, isn't it also using dice to smelt the Ring of Destiny?"

In this activation method, the effect that the Ring of Destiny can exert is much greater than the effect after smelting into a weapon, and it is even very close to the effect when embedded directly into the body. But doing so has a time limit after all, so it is hard to say which method is better, the one passed down by the society or the one passed down by the witches.

All "Rings of Destiny" can theoretically give birth to "Ring Beasts," but they undoubtedly all require a long time. And stripping the Ring of Destiny from the body of a Ring Beast is quite difficult. The method mastered by the 【Tyranny Club】 should also be mastered by the society, and the society's materials say that the method of stripping the Ring of Destiny from the human body and stripping the Ring of Destiny of a Ring Beast are universal.

Other destinies are fine, but the whole material world should only have Xia De who dares to use his own destiny ring to directly collide with the "wrong destiny."

Fusing the "Ring of Destiny" into someone's body and then completely killing them is the simplest way to "shatter the ring." But the society knew that what Xia De was looking for was definitely not this method, so they provided a more direct means to "shatter the ring":

"Destiny must be opposed by destiny—this is indeed consistent with Sister Daifulin's statement. A strong person who completely knows his own destiny and understands his origin and mission can use his own destiny to shatter the Ring of Destiny.

This requires at least the Thirteenth Tier or even the demigod level, and mastering powerful power closely related to his own destiny. When shattering the Ring of Destiny in this way, the soul will directly face the final attack of the Ring Beast corresponding to the Ring of Destiny, but as long as the ring is successfully shattered, he himself will also gain additional gains because of the great cause of shattering destiny."

Xia De finished reading these contents, and the following are examples of the Prophet Society trying to shatter some more troublesome Rings of Destiny.

"In this way, except for how to turn the Ring of Destiny into several arcs, I understand the means of forging, using, and shattering the Ring of Destiny. But origin and mission..."

This sounds to Xia De like a requirement for the road to a demigod. Although he is not the Thirteenth Tier, because he knows that he came because Luweiya destroyed time and space six times, he actually already meets the conditions. As for the mission... the outlander of course knows what he wants to do. Except for the beginning, he has rarely been confused because of the future.

As for "powerful power closely related to his own destiny," it is even simpler. Moon Fire perfectly meets the conditions.

"Then do you want to try it? Try to activate the arc with dice, or try to shatter the arc with Moon Fire?"

Flora asked, and Xia De just wanted to answer, but immediately turned his head in surprise to look at her:

"Flora? Wait a minute, when did you arrive?"

The gray-black-haired artist lady smiled brilliantly, and others also realized at this moment that she actually appeared on the ship.

"Arrived ten minutes ago. You were all focused on reading these documents, and no one noticed me. It was Miss Ilese who brought me here. Charlotte has already taken people to settle the luggage. Don't worry about me, then are you going to activate the arc or shatter the arc?"

"Of course it's shattering. This kind of destiny should not be used, but if there is a chance to obtain arcs symbolizing other destinies in the future, it can be considered to try to use them."

So the arc temporarily stored on the ship was taken, and after the seal of the coffin was untied, the black arc was no different from when Xia De stored it. It was indeed relatively stable.

Xia De held it, and then released Moon Fire to wrap it. But nothing happened, and Moon Fire and the arc did not react at all.

Xi Wei reminded:

"Although the society's materials don't say it particularly clearly, in those examples, the strong people who shattered destiny all chose special times and places to do this. If this is not because they all have a sense of ritual, I think it must be because broken destiny requires suitable time and place."

"The most suitable time for Xia De must be the night under the moon."

Megan said, and Vanessa also smiled and said:

"The most suitable place is of course our Night Temple in the Randall River Valley."

So this matter can only be done at night, but Xia De had new thoughts:

"When the Chosen complete the ritual, the destiny ring often turns into weapons or ritual items related to the old gods, such as scales, cubes, scythes. The destiny ring of the ninth Chosen, as expected, will turn into an Ouroboros roulette or a simple dark gold ring—is this also a Ring of Destiny?"

"Then what kind of destiny is this?"

Claire asked, and Xia De thought for a while:

"Destiny of destiny."

He put the black arc back into the coffin:

"Now the way to shatter the ring has also been found. I will try it tonight to see if it has any effect. The Falling Star Beast matter can be started to be solved. This time we skip the early investigation stage and go directly to defeat the final enemy."

He looked at Xi Wei, Vanessa, Flora, Megan, and Claire in front of him. Grandmother Cassandra will not arrive until next week, Galina and Sylvia have their own things and have not set off yet. The only one on the road now is the Countess of Moon Bay:

"The strength of the Falling Star Beast is not known yet, so we treat it as the most difficult evil thing to deal with. Since the other party has the power of stars, we should not act at night. Tomorrow is Thursday, Bella said they will arrive in the morning, we will set off at noon, and it is not clear how long the underground journey will take, after all, no one has been in.

So I plan to set off at dawn on Friday. Whoever can catch up between Luweiya and Iluna will be called. It is best to bring one of Bella or Luweiya for this action.

In addition, I also invited the jesters to come and help. I will write to them in a while; besides that, I will also write a letter to the 【Winter Anthem Troupe】 stationed outside the city. Miss Elsa Eisberg will also be happy to help. You take advantage of these two days to prepare well. At that time, we will leave one person to look after the town with Miss Ilese, and others will act with me. I suspect that we will encounter other troubles halfway."

"Should the church and the Prophet Society be notified?"

Flora asked. Now there is a Thirteenth Tier sorcerer and a Thirteenth Tier Great Witch in the team. Xia De originally didn't want to notify the church and the society. After all, if the participants are all his own people, they can fully let Stella play a greater role.

But he has always been cautious. Even if he feels that such a team should be enough, he is still a bit worried that he is too careless:

"If Bella or Luweiya are there, it would be good to let them help divine whether this trip is smooth... Matilda."

He called the blonde maid behind the crowd and handed her the gold coin with point 5 obtained after twisting little Belen's destiny:

"Use this coin to divine whether our action on Friday is smooth."

Coin divination can be said to be an introductory skill for diviners, but Matilda was very hesitant:

"Why not wait until Miss Annette or the master arrives and let them try?"

"You are Bella's apprentice. If the teacher is not there, the apprentice should play a role. Sylvia changed from an apprentice to a Great Witch at once. Her performance at that time was very good. You should all learn from her."

Flora took the coin and stuffed it into Matilda's hand, so the maid threw the coin thirteen times on the table—this did not count as using the coin, so it was not consumed. Among them, four were heads, eight were tails, and the last one was actually standing upright.

"The possibility of achieving the goal is more than half, but before success, you will definitely encounter great difficulties."

Xia De then made a plan:

"Like dealing with the demon at the beginning, three hours after we set off, send a letter to the church and the Prophet Society. In this way, if we find the Falling Star Beast and cannot deal with it, we can also join forces with the follow-up team."

The girls also thought Xia De's arrangement was very appropriate, and the report on "Snake Fang" was relatively simple.

Although the Fatumunster people have been preventing the Prophet Society from approaching the snowy mountain, the society actually knows a lot about this island. Combining folklore, legend, terrain exploration, and divination results, the Prophet Society gave a total of four clues.

The clue considered most likely to find the snake fang is the investigation report on the underground part of Fatumunster Island.

There is no huge underground city under the island, but according to the geological exploration results during the construction of Chronos City, there are some relatively ancient cracks and passages under the local area, and even rich mineral deposits.

It's just that the society knows that dangerous things are sealed under the snowy mountain, so it has always strongly opposed any excavation and exploration projects targeting the island's underground. And the Fatumunster people living locally also don't have the habit of digging underground—even most people are directly buried at sea, not even digging graves.

But the society still conducted shallow investigations on the existing natural underground caves and determined that several of them had traces of being used. It's just that the society has always been worried about the underground part of the island, so the investigation was only shallow.

And a hidden cave in the west of Fatumunster Island is considered by them to be an ancient underground refuge for the Fatumunster people, used to hide the elderly and children when the village was destroyed.

The diviners don't know where they got the records, mentioning that the Fatumunster people have always believed that the underground is the "dark world," and the high place represented by the snowy mountain is the "light world." Therefore, such caves that might be used are usually arranged with altars in the depths.

And the diviners inferred from some materials that a snake fang is enshrined in the altar of that cave on the west side of the island. They even conducted divination for this, believing that deep exploration there will definitely gain unexpected gains.
