Chapter 3711: The Dream of Burning the Snowy Mountain

The ritual was scheduled to start at 9:30 on this Monday morning, so after breakfast, everyone gathered and set off. Xia De's group followed the rules and did not fly directly to the Peak of Fate, but landed on the mountain road below the summit, and then walked up together.

Luvia stayed on the ship, but she let Xia De bring both Ellie and Little Liana.

Little Liana was following Stella happily at this moment. Little unicorns always have a good mood. Ellie walked behind Xia De. Xia De could almost bump into that horn if he fell backward.

The scenery near the summit was spectacular and magnificent, but Claire had long been used to such scenery. She confirmed that only Ellie was following behind, and the people behind Ellie should not be able to hear the conversation here, so she reached out and poked Xia De, saying with some hesitation:

"I had a strange dream last night."

Xia De knew what she meant. 【Calamity Card: The Last Fatum Person】 was left in Claire's hands. Luvia said she might dream because of this:

"What did you dream about?"

He was a little worried that Claire would see the scene of the end of the world directly, but fortunately it was not:

"I saw my grandfather. We fought on the summit of the Holy Mountain. I don't know why my grandfather wanted to fight me, but... the snowy mountain melted."

She said with a worried face:

"While I was fighting my grandfather, a raging fire was burning on the mountain. The ten-thousand-year-old snow was melted by that flame. Everything I knew on the snowy mountain was dancing in the fire. I never knew it could be so hot here... Is this a precognitive dream? Is Mr. Snake going to burn the snowy mountain?"

From the information Xia De learned, it should not be the snake that burns the snowy mountain but the long-haired Luvia. Although it is not clear why she did this back then, this kind of thing will definitely not happen in this Sixth Era.

"Don't worry, this is definitely not a precognitive dream."

But Xia De's comfort did not make Claire feel at ease. She was still worried:

"Originally, I thought my 11th-tier level was high enough. Even my grandfather only reached this level. I was a full thirty years earlier than him. But seeing that dream, I realized more deeply how weak I am."

Xia De already regretted handing that card to Claire, but fortunately, he still underestimated the girl's determination:

"So, if I go to ask Iluna Miss Beiyasi, will you laugh at me?"

"Huh? What?"

Claire clenched her fists:

"I must complete the promotion before the decisive battle. As a Great Witch of the Sun, the only people I can think of who are worth asking are that 'Sun Emblem' Miss Eden and the Chosen One of Balance.

Although that young Miss Miss Beiyasi is 10th-tier, one level lower than me, her understanding of solar power is not necessarily weaker than mine. I will go to ask her, and then go to talk to that Miss Eden with the angelic bloodline. Maybe I will gain something."

Hearing her say this, Xia De felt relieved. He thought Claire was just disappointed. Girls who use solar power seem to be so strong-hearted. Xia De hooked Claire's hand:

"Aren't you only missing the last spiritual rune for your promotion? Don't worry about this kind of thing. After all, the story hasn't ended yet, and there are still many opportunities left for you."

"But I am just a secondary supporting role."

She also held Xia De's hand. Neither of them noticed Ellie behind them tilting her head and looking at their hands.

"Those unexpected gains and gifts of fate are prepared for the lead or other important characters, and in this story, I can probably appear on stage with everyone when 'witches' appear. If there is a cast list after the performance, I will probably be mixed in a pile of names and have to look for a long time to be found."

Xia De heard "her" laughing in his ear. Xia De was actually almost amused by Claire's metaphor:

"For me, there are never any 'witches', there are only you with distinct personalities. After today's events are over, I will help you write a letter to invite Iluna to chat. Iluna will be very willing to communicate with you."

Claire nodded and continued to hold Xia De's hand and asked:

"In all your adventures so far, have you come into contact with power related to the Ancient God of the Sun?"

"In the past, I saw a temple of the Ancient God of the Sun in a desert. Then it was Little Mia and my set of armor that gained power... After today's events are over, I can move the armor to the ship."

It's just a pity that the armor should not be able to defend against the power of fate or the power of the end of the world... At least Xia De thinks so.

The sound of boots and shoes stepping on the snow was messy, but it had a rhythmic beat. The team soon arrived at the highest point of the mountain. Although the whole island was filled with thick fog today, the fog had not yet risen to this position.

Looking at the island covered by rolling and undulating thick fog in the sunlight was also quite a good scenery.

In addition to the girls of the 【Witch Council】, the Seers Association and the 【Music Cult】 also sent musicians to participate in the performance of the ritual here. In order to maximize the dice points of this scene, Claire and Xia De, who have snake sloughs, will also participate in the performance. Xia De uses his own Butterfly-Calling Flute, and Claire holds the musical instrument she just obtained from Miss Aisberg not long ago.

The ritual had been prepared for half a month, so of course, there would be no mistakes at this moment. After arriving at the summit and confirming that the advance arrangements were fine, the group began the final preparations.

In addition to the "God-Caller", the 13th-tier sorcerers in the summit area also included the 【Nightmare Witch】 of the Church of Nature who Xia De was most familiar with, and Danister. As for why Danister happened to be assigned to the summit, Xia De believed that Miss Manager must have her own way.

In short, most of the summit area were their own people. Xia De did not need to participate in the arrangement of the ritual. He first chatted with Miss Ingram about Sister Daelin's recent situation, and then talked to Danister about the "artificial Ring of Fate".

【Moon in the Water】 was used last night, and what will be used during the day today is 【Sun Shadow Twin Wheels】. Xia De knew nothing about this relic, but Danister knew about it.

Although she did not reveal too much to Xia De, she also explained the basic situation of the relic:

"That relic is a golden metal ring with two centers of circles overlapping. The two do not overlap but maintain a certain angle and rotate spontaneously. The relic itself is these two rings, and their characteristics are mainly reflected in the shadows.

Daily containment requires placing these two metal rings in a completely dark environment. After 48 hours, they will stop spontaneous light behavior. And if they are placed under a light source, the shadows of the rings will form a rotating black circle on the plane, and that circle... can be regarded as a weapon similar to your strange technique 【Moonlight Wheel】."

As for the origin of this relic, it is not complicated. The modern Church of the Sun has an unclear connection with the ancient Church of the Sun of the Ancient God 【Supreme Sun-Binder】. This Unknowable-level relic is an ancient divine ritual item passed down from ancient times, and it turned into a relic at the time point when the Second Era and the Third Era intersected.

"The believers of the ancient Sun God still have inheritance. Although the believers of that Moon Sage have also dispersed into various Orthodox Churches, the main body of the inheritance has disappeared. Otherwise, we should have some very powerful moon-series relics in our hands today."

Xia De said with some regret, and Danister smiled:

"If you look for it carefully, there are many traces left by that Moon Sage in the material world. The Black Night Temple in the Randall Valley has already helped you many times."

Xia De nodded and continued to look at the island shrouded in thick fog.

Everyone was actually prepared to deal with the attack, but until the final preparations for the ritual were completed and they were just waiting for the signal to start playing, nothing else happened here.

The whole island looked quite normal. Not to mention Mr. Snake, even the cultists did not show any traces.

But in the memory of the Lovers, it was said that Mr. Snake had more than one follower. Xia De certainly would not really think that the Sixth Act would end so easily.

Xia De was even prepared for the "Demon of Weapons" to appear again in some way, but until 9:20 in the morning, with only ten minutes left before the ritual officially started, they still waited for nothing.

At this time, Stella had boarded the ritual platform in the center of the "Peak of Fate". Because it was an ancient ritual, Xia De thought it was a sacrificial altar no matter how he looked at it. But fortunately, the sacrifices were not necessarily living things, and music and art were also very common sacrifices offered to the gods.

The white-haired girl was trying hard to adjust her breathing to calm herself down. Seeing Xia De looking over, she even smiled shyly at Xia De. She was wearing a slightly formal blue satin dress today, and she had asked Matilda to help with makeup in advance. Although the ritual did not require the core musician's attire, Stella still treated this matter with the most serious attitude.

Now with the fate of 【Ice and Snow】 and 【Frost Mourning】, although Stella is still in the middle tier, she can already participate in some dangerous battlefields. Compared with two months ago when Xia De first met her, she has really changed a lot.

"Story after story, besides the birth of the chosen ones, is also a way for those who can seize the opportunity to gain power... What will happen next?"

Xia De thought in his heart, and then saw Megan blinking at him with a smile. Miss Edwards obviously thought of something interesting, but obviously it was not the time to talk now.

All personnel were in place. The huge ice pipe organs surrounding the sacrificial altar were the most conspicuous musical instruments on the Peak of Fate. Except for Megan, Danister, and Miss Ingram, the three female sorcerers/witches who did not need to participate in the performance, everyone present picked up their respective musical instruments.

Xia De also put the 【Butterfly-Calling Flute】 to his mouth. The following song is actually not the most important part. The most important thing is whether Stella can resonate with the power of the ritual through music while performing that ancient fate divine ritual, and then cooperate with the ritual points in the other six locations on the island.

He believed in Stella, so he didn't look at her again. He counted down in his heart for the arrival of 9:30, and the female conductor from the 【Music Cult】 wearing a black dress had already raised her baton and was ready.

"Three, two, one!"

The baton fell, and the Great Movement of Fate officially began. ===== CHAPTER 3712 =====
