Chapter 3693: The Memory of Petals

~10 min read 1,826 words

Luveia reminded:

"Xia De, 【Fool】 doesn't just mean being silly. As sequence 0 in the tarot cards, its meaning is very rich. You don't need to worry about this, just care more about your own fate. A ring can let you defeat Mr. Snake's clone with the help of others, but it definitely cannot confront his main body."

"Yes, but just with the end of the fifth act story, we harvested four rings. Now there are at least two acts of the story that have not yet been performed. Rings should still appear."

Xia De pressed 【Rebirth】 on the back of Little Mia on his lap. The cat squirmed uncomfortably, but did not leave:

"The ring matter is like this for now. Next, let's see what kind of information is here."

That ice petal containing Valentin Halonin's memory was taken out by Xia De, and then directly pasted on his forehead. The information in the memory was not much, but it was only ten seconds of time before that petal melted.

Luveia handed over a handkerchief. When Xia De wiped it on his forehead, she teased again:

"Look, even if it is an enemy, as long as it is a woman, you can make them hand over information willingly."

"Luveia, you seem to be saying that I am the kind of person who always likes to flirt."

【Isn't it?】

"She" asked with a smile. Xia De naturally denied it... He only picks the most beautiful flowers.

"In summary, there are three pieces of useful information.

The first point is about Mr. Snake's main body. She had told me many times that she had witnessed Mr. Snake's main body. It seems this is true. However, she did not share the specific appearance of the main body of that thing with me. What is in the memory is the way she saw Mr. Snake."

Luveia listened attentively. She noticed Xia De frowned:

"Walk inward after entering the temple, and then bypass the wall hanging the Ouroboros disk. Walk through the corridor behind the wall and enter a small stone room. Fire basins were placed in the four corners of the stone room. The murals on the wall in the memory were blurry. There were steps downward in the center of the stone room, but she did not walk toward the steps, but a huge black snake head emerged directly from under the steps.

The architectural and decoration style of that stone room was completely different from the temple. I suspect the stone room is not part of the temple at all. That place is already part of the seal."

"In other words, if we fight to the top of the mountain in the future, the destination is there?"

Luveia asked. The answer Xia De gave was not clear:

"It is also possible that Mr. Snake escapes directly, and the battlefield is even directly in the snowy mountain."

He touched Little Mia, and the cat meowed gently.

"The second point of information is about the story of the fifth act. In the memory, there are memories of Valentin Halonin's complete life. Besides that, it is what she did in the ten years she left this island.

The plague of fate had already been scattered in all parts of the world. That time was even far earlier than 1853 when the doctor first met me. Outside the island, she also borrowed Mr. Snake's name to let Mr. Snake trade with mortals. The ordinary people that the church recently discovered outside the island who had nothing to do with Fatumunster Island have a relationship with her."

"Ten years, ah."

Luveia sighed:

"Ten years ago I was still a little girl who didn't understand anything... Don't refute me, I know I had already joined the association at that time."

She warned "smallly":

"So, can we catch the traders according to her memory?"

"Can only catch a part, because in her memory, although she is the earliest person known to trade with Mr. Snake, besides her, there were other traders running around the world in these ten years."

Xia De frowned precisely because of this reason:

"We still greatly underestimated the degree of Mr. Snake's influence on the world outside the Falling Star Bay. In the memory, she even knew that a trader had been to Vesta Land... From Karsinrik to Delarion, from the jungle in the south to the academy in the far north, from the Old World to the New World, Mr. Snake's traders had left big and small troubles in almost all parts of the world. It's just that before the story of fate officially opened, those troubles only led to a series of tragedies of mortal fate, and it didn't look like it involved supernatural factors on the surface.

Although it itself failed to leave this island, it had already done too many preparations before the story of fate officially opened."

Luveia grabbed Xia De's hand that was petting the cat. The weight of the two hands superimposed on the body made the cat meow again.

"Let the church handle the things outside the island. We just need to think about how to deal with Mr. Snake's main body."

Xia De nodded:

"Besides, she also met many people who traded with Mr. Snake after returning to the island. I can tell the church these intelligence later and let the church go catch people... Do you remember Ms. White said she suspected that someone among the current candidates had traded with the snake, or was used by the snake?"

Luveia raised her eyebrows:

"You saw someone?"

"No, but in her memory, the Ringed Shushi of the 【Tyranny Club】 appeared in the temple. Didn't the believers of the God of Tyranny cooperate with the other two cults?"

Xia De suspected:

"Maybe this is a very important clue. Let the church investigate it, or go to divine it after we get new coins."

Luveia nodded:

"The new coins should be in hand soon. The witches are helping to think of ways. Then what is the third piece of information about?"

"Snowy mountain seal. Actually, what she did was not to destroy the seal, but to accelerate the rupture of the seal. The seal itself couldn't hold on. Including the huge snake teeth that appeared last night, all the means were to let Mr. Snake escape faster.

The influence already caused, besides the purification means given by Ms. White, has no possibility of being recovered. Besides Valentin Halonin, there were others secretly influencing the seal. She didn't know the identities of those people either, but Mr. Snake's most important trader definitely didn't only have her. The power possessed by other traders would not be inferior to her.

The murderer 'Slayer' who is being wanted by the Karsinrik official and was given power by Mr. Snake; the 'Lost One' who was given a new life goal by the snake and can make people get lost in the fog; the 'Greedy Merchant' who blamed everything on the partner after the business failed and can stir up anyone's greed... Everyone in her memory had a failed life and met the snake in a desperate situation. In my opinion, everyone's thoughts should be sent to the doctor for purification treatment."

Luveia was not very surprised by this:

"The snake itself has no hands, so it needs mortals as its hands. Those people's failed lives are probably inseparable from Mr. Snake. During the sixth and seventh acts of the story, it seems everyone has other things to do."

Xia De said again:

"There are more important things before that. Her memory shows that the second fate impact will appear on Saturday afternoon, which is tomorrow afternoon. Originally, wasn't the ritual of the Great Movement of Fate arranged to start tomorrow afternoon? Notify the association to postpone it temporarily, otherwise the ritual will definitely have problems."

"Like this... Then regarding the fate ring, does that woman know nothing? Although she is not a Ringed Shushi, she has lived for so many years and doesn't know anything about fate?"

Luveia asked again. Xia De shook his head:

"She doesn't know the whereabouts of any complete ring. The curved arc and the fate ring were all given to her by Mr. Snake from the temple. I know the method she used the ring's power. If you are interested, you can refer to it. Speaking of this, others who made wishes to the snake might also have rings, but these rings resonate with them, and it is very difficult for us to get them."

Xia De hesitated:

"At the end of her memory, it was a dialogue between Mr. Snake and her when they were talking. That snake once told her that for the strong who know their own fate, the so-called dice, curved arcs, and rings are all appearances. The strong can directly resonate with fate by themselves, without needing these external objects. And the condensation of the ring is just a process of knowing fate."

"Condensing fate out of thin air, that is something that the heroes of the Mythical Era could do."

Luveia laughed and leaned on Xia De's shoulder:

"Then what about you? Xia De, can you condense fate by yourself?"

"Temporarily can't. However, I have some ideas about my other two rings. The fate of 【Rebirth】 is not the fate of the future, but the manifestation of the fate of the past... However, even if the Great Movement of Fate is postponed, it will be at most until next week. I am more worried about whether that *Vantage* card can fall into my hands during the seventh act story."

Xia De hugged Luveia's shoulder, and the purple-eyed girl whispered:

"If you can't get it yourself, I will definitely help you get it."

"Why do you say that?"

"Except for Little Mia, you don't have other hobbies usually, and there are not many things you want. Your material desire is really low. Rod cards are one of the few things you are interested in. If even this we can't help you get, then we almost can't do anything for you."

She said very gently. Xia De hesitated:

"Luveia, you can't think about attacking the headquarters of the Prophecy Association."

"Why would you think so? Of course I won't do such a thing. The association headquarters is not something we can attack now... But isn't that card going to leave the headquarters and come here during the seventh act story?"

"This... it is best not to have such thoughts."

"You don't need to worry about this. Maybe that card will appear in your hand inexplicably like before. There are many things to do today, it seems we can't rest temporarily."

The two soon separated. Luveia took 【Breeding】 to find Grandma Cassandra, and Xia De went to find Shivi, and went to see the girls who were injured in the battle last night together with her. ===== CHAPTER 3694 =====
