Chapter 3694: Revisit Ms. White

~10 min read 1,865 words

Thanks to everyone's level getting higher and higher, there are basically no injuries that cannot be cured. The poison of the Infinite Snake is the cause of the most troublesome injuries at present, and this fatal poison can only be prevented from causing death by rapid amputation. Xia De can reshape the loss of the girls' bodies through "active soil."

Xia De found that he was quite good at molding people, but he would also be very troubled when facing the request of "can you make my legs thinner."

By 10:30 in the morning, Iluna and Emilia came to the town together. The elves who came with Emilia were received by Shivi and Vanessa. The girls who were talking and laughing first went to see Ellie and Little Liana. Emilia performed some examinations on Ellie. When she saw Xia De on the boat, she said to him:

"Ellie is still a purebred unicorn."

The little sprite explained:

"I originally suspected that the experience of 【House of Fakes】 caused Ellie to change her race, so she would become a human. Now it seems that Ellie's transformation is just a manifestation of ability, not involving the transformation of bloodline. However, I still have to go back and ask the elders about the unicorn transformation... If other little unicorns can learn it, it would be great.

Just now I talked to Ellie, she said she can transform autonomously, but this consumes a lot of physical strength, so she has to eat a lot of apples for replenishment every time. She is not very accustomed to the transformation form, so it seems she hasn't mastered it very purely, so except for critical moments or your request, she shouldn't transform very frequently afterward."

Xia De understood this, and he didn't need Ellie to transform often for the time being:

"Luveia said Ellie's talent comes from the fate connection she established with others, and then obtained the power of others through deepening the relationship. Now Ellie, besides race talent, has also displayed the abilities of ice and snow, moonlight, and transformation. These three abilities may come from Chloe and Winnie, me, Grace, and Helen.

This kind of strange talent is not 'copying.' Luveia believes that this can only be effective for objects that themselves have powerful fate or special fate, and as the relationship deepens, Ellie can also obtain more power.

Emilia, Iluna, you two are both complete Chosen Ones, and both have powerful fate. If you have time recently, you can go find Ellie to play more, maybe this can let Ellie obtain more power."

Iluna and Emilia naturally wouldn't refuse to do so. Iluna also thought of the question Xia De thought of before breakfast at this moment:

"This talent is not a general talent of unicorns, right? Is Ellie also a candidate?"

"This is not clear for the time being. At present, I don't have the plan to give Ellie a snake skin. Try to cultivate her first. If Ellie really resonates with a fate ring before the final act, this is a good thing, but I won't force Ellie to shoulder any responsibility. After all, she doesn't belong to this era, there is no need to force the responsibility of this era onto her."

Xia De was also using the personal pronoun for "human."

Emilia and Iluna both stayed for lunch. At the lunch table, except for Galina and Tifa, almost everyone was there, so Xia De also talked to the girls with snake skins about the addition of dice.

The story of the fifth act was still Xia De's highest points, 79-98, almost reaching the limit of the 20-sided dice. And Iluna and Stella, who also played a big role, also had many points. Stella set a record by getting 70-89 points, and Iluna's points were even 75-94.

If Iluna hadn't participated in the early investigation of the Lover, her points should have been even higher than Xia De's based on her contribution in the final battle.

And Iluna and Emilia also brought news from the church and the elves respectively... The elves had no news.

The Five Gods Church was also handling various things after the war just like Xia De. The appearance of a large number of dead bodies last night not only required them to investigate the source of the bodies but also required the Prophecy Association to determine the difference between the corpses infected by the snake plague and the living people.

The lasting influence of the Lover battle was not great, even less than the battle of the Falling Star Beast. After all, the meteorite crater of the falling star and the cracks of the star realm fragments were still there. But the memory Xia De obtained from that petal showed that the Lover was only a small part of the trouble. Mr. Snake had plenty of manpower to continue its actions.

He told Iluna about Mr. Snake's other traders, the ordinary people the Lover had contacted outside the island, and the news that the second fate impact would appear tomorrow afternoon. Although Iluna also felt that the matter was tricky, she still had an optimistic attitude:

"At least we won the fifth act, this is enough. I will bring the news. I also have one thing here, it is about those two evil god believers, I mean those two candidates.

They fought with Mr. Zarathustra of the association and Mr. Mortis of the clown last night. Later, they also returned to the battlefield after Mr. Snake appeared, and brought back the news that Mr. Snake's main body left the temple after the great war.

Those two cults sent news through secret channels this morning, saying that they have

"It seems the 【Doomsday Sect】 and the 【Society of Infinity】 have also realized the severity of the situation."

Claire asked curiously again:

"Did the Church agree to the trade?"

"They still need to hold a meeting to discuss it, and they have to report the situation to the 'God-Awakener' and the Society. They will likely send people to the town by the afternoon, so Xia De can think about how to respond in advance."

Yiluna said indifferently, and Xia De shook his head:

"Luweiya, you and the witches decide how to respond. I am going to meet Ms. White this afternoon, and Winnie will go with me."

Yiluna immediately expressed:

"Can I go too? I am also very curious."

Amelia felt she had missed an important opportunity, but since she had to coordinate Aili's affairs in the afternoon anyway, she had no choice but to gloomily pierce her steak with a fork, thinking to herself that she should speak up faster next time.

Meeting Ms. White was the most important thing today besides going to find Sister Daifulin in the evening. After the story of the fifth act, Xia De felt that his relationship with this lady should have improved quite a bit.

The thick fog from this morning had dissipated before lunch, and the weather on the island was quite good today, but on the afternoon at the end of winter, it was still very cold at the foot of the snow-capped mountains.

As a shadow appeared from beneath the ice, the head of the giant white snake broke through the surface of the lake amidst a slight tremor, and then the giant white python with red pupils revealed its head.

Xia De then introduced her:

"This is Yiluna Beiyasi, the Chosen of Balance, who currently resonates with two rings; she is the one who defeated the Lustful One head-on."

The red snake pupils swept across Yiluna:

"Yes, I remember the crimson thunder from last night; that was very outstanding. Good afternoon, heir of the Judge."

"Good afternoon, Ms. White... you are very beautiful."

Yiluna's opinion on the appearance of this snake was clearly consistent with Xia De's, but if it had been Amelia, it probably wouldn't have been the same view—the little sprite hates snakes. This guardian of the seal did not care about the evaluation of its appearance; it then nodded at Winnie and looked back at Xia De:

"God-Awakener, the fifth act of the stage has ended, and I admire the way you ended this act of the story. It is just that before our conversation begins, I need to confirm one more thing with you: have you dabbled in the power of evil spirits and demons?"

It was clearly still thinking about Xia De sealing the demon's blood during the great battle last night. That drop of blood was still on him, and he planned to talk to the doctor after returning to Tobesk before handing it over to the old priest for safekeeping.

"Of course not. You see, I am wearing the 【Demon-Hunting Seal】 on my hand, and the only 'evil' power I possess is this."

Xia De said as he summoned the Chains of Sin. Now, after the 【Original Sin Seal】, the number of chains had grown to three, and they could directly seal demons whose amount of sin was less than Xia De's, making them much more powerful than before the battle with the Lustful One.

Winnie and Yiluna had no reaction to the chains. Ms. White looked at them inquiringly for a while before asking:

"Could you reveal the origin of this chain? Although I do not know you, I believe that under normal circumstances, this kind of power should not appear on you."

Xia De then told the truth:

"This is a power obtained years ago from the Unknown-level relic 'Desire'. In fact, it appeared in the western waters of the island this morning. 'Desire' is..."

"I know, it is older than me, it..."

The giant white snake said somewhat absent-mindedly, then realized it had almost said something it shouldn't have:

"At night you said to me that in an era when the end is coming, even the power of sin is power. I admit that this statement makes sense, but not everyone can control the power of sin, even in the Mythological Era.

You are a strong person and can choose your own path. I will not speak to stop you from continuing to use and develop the power of this chain, but please remember that mortals possess more than just sin; they have many more beautiful virtues, and these together forge the mortal soul."

The snake paused slightly:

"What you used at night was the 【Original Sin Seal】; the true source of this evil power is the 【Original Sin Brand】. I should not have mentioned this to you, but I may complete my mission and disappear at any time. I think, rather than letting you learn it from that monster born of the primal desires of intelligent beings, it is better for me to tell you what the 【Original Sin Brand】 is.

This is actually against the rules; I shouldn't have said it."

Winnie immediately turned into a flurry of snowflakes and temporarily left the area. Yiluna had wanted to leave too, but she glanced at Xia De, and seeing that Xia De said nothing and the big white snake didn't make her leave, Yiluna decided to stay and listen.
