Chapter 3723: Dragon Scale Amulet and White Snake Invitation
The thirteenth-ring dragon blinked at Xia De after speaking, and Xia De also blinked at him. Xiwei, who hadn't spoken on the side, maintained a smile. As the nominally most mysterious and powerful thirteenth-ring warlock in the entire material world, the "God-Caller" finally appeared in public in this incident, which would naturally attract a lot of attention.
But Xia De is the kind of person who is afraid of trouble:
"So that's it... I maintain a good friendship with the 【Witch Council】. The witches also walked out of the Mythological Era. Perhaps you can communicate more with the Council later."
This was throwing the matter to Ms. Isabella.
But fortunately, this "Scroll Wing" didn't expect to reach any agreement with the "God-Caller" upon the first meeting. Although there are many dragons on Dragon Island, in the eyes of this "God-Caller" who has summoned gods many times and is incomparably powerful himself, dragons may not be the most valuable allies.
Especially in the rumors, those sharp-eared ones who have considered themselves noble since the beginning of the Mythological Era directly offered their Elf Queen—the crystal statue in the "Throne Land" of Vesta Forest can testify to this.
"Please accept this, God-Caller. Although I have never witnessed your dragon transformation posture, this will definitely be useful to you. This is a witness of friendship, with no other purpose."
The silver dragon handed over a scroll, and Xia De accepted it after considering it. He didn't open it immediately, but he could guess that this was a secret method inherited by the dragons. He didn't think he couldn't learn it. Now that the transformation posture had been regarded as his true body, and he transformed into a dragon, his race was truly transformed into a dragon, so there was no reason he couldn't learn the dragon's secret method.
He was just thinking about whether the dragons of Dragon Island could play an unexpected role in the subsequent stories. Judging from the news given by the Witch Council and the communication results after the dragons found Mr. Albert, the number of dragons returning from Dragon Island reached three digits, and the number of dragons above the high ring was terrifying.
But the number of dragon eggs buried on Dragon Island today is the most massive, because for unknown reasons, the reproductive ability of dragons in the Sixth Era has further declined, and most dragon eggs are difficult to hatch even if they are born.
But even relying only on the existing dragons, although they do not yet have the ability to subvert the order of the civilized society constructed by the Five Gods Church, this is already a supernatural force second only to the Five Gods Church and the three major academies.
The dusk light eventually spread out, but because of the control of Iluna and the others, the final casualties were not large. But the disappearance of one-third of the city and the subsequent turning of Cabon City into a restricted area would have what kind of impact on the situation in southern Karsinrik, which is not something that can be guessed now.
The resettlement of refugees and the control of public opinion were left to the Church to handle. Xia De returned to the Schluch Lake island with Xiwei and Ellie at 4:30 this afternoon.
Claire went to meet Ms. Eden in the afternoon, and it seemed she gained a lot. And after hearing Xia De and Xiwei talk about the current appearance of Cabon City, the great witches were all a bit worried and uneasy. Not only about the current situation, but also uneasy about what kind of exaggerated disasters would happen in the stories of the four Chosen Ones that had not yet occurred.
Xia De returned to the ship to check the scroll given by the silver dragon "Scroll Wing." As expected, the scroll was in ancient dragon language. This was not because the dragons specifically wanted to show off their antiquity, but because many sentences and words would lose their original meaning after translation.
"The dragons really specially chose the power most suitable for me."
Xia De sighed after checking the scroll, and Xiwei asked on the side:
"Is it the power of the combination of dragon and moonlight?"
"No, no, it's just a secret method of the dragon race—Miracle: Dragon Scale Amulet. The effect of this miracle is quite simple: pluck one's own scales, imbue them with the shield-like power one possesses, and turn them into amulets that can be given to others or used by oneself."
"For example, if I possess 【Heaton Seal】 and 【Night Curtain Seal】, I can turn dragon scales into amulets that can release these two miracles. Making amulets only consumes spirit, and the spellcasting ability of the amulets is equal to my own. When releasing the amulets, I only need to pay mental power. These amulets are not alchemical products, but existences similar to spiritual weapons, and their effects are more powerful and stable than alchemical props."
"If it weren't for the fact that the number of amulets that can exist simultaneously is equal to one's own level... for me, the number of existing amulets is equal to 5 times my own level, the significance of this miracle would be even greater. I am now at the ninth ring and can simultaneously produce 14 dragon scale amulets. Not only can they be given to others, but they can also be used by myself."
The state of divine afterglow will enhance the effects of some miracles, and the increase in the number of amulets is because of this reason.
Xiwei thought for a while:
"Can the amulets be activated simultaneously?"
"Of course they can."
"In other words, if you carry all 14 dragon scale amulets and activate them all, it is equivalent to fourteen of you using the seal simultaneously?"
Xiwei also realized the value of this. Although the shield strength cannot be a purely additive relationship, no matter how Xia De wants to use these dragon scale amulets, this miracle has a very important significance.
The learning of the dragon's secret method requires preparation of materials, and the events of this Tuesday did not end there.
Not long after Xia De returned to Kyle-Todd Town, a woman with white hair and snake pupils came to the snowy mountain hall from the fog that permeated the entire island.
"Snake pupils" as Mr. Snake's sign immediately caused a commotion, but the other party claimed to be a "clone of the snowy mountain guardian" and submitted an invitation letter to Stella in a quite official manner.
The letter said that as the guardian of the snowy mountain left by the ancient god-Ring Master, after the end of the sixth act of the story, it invited all candidates who currently possess snake sloughs to gather and discuss the seventh act of the destiny story together.
The time was set for 7:30 tonight. At that time, in addition to the candidates themselves, they could also bring two other people to accompany them.
"Claire and I will go. Ms. White seems to not want to open a back door for us on the rules set by the Ring Master. But even in fair competition, we are absolutely not at a disadvantage in the story of the seventh act."
Xia De said at the dinner table. The witches had no opinion, but Dorothy asked:
"We have never doubted that you will lose in playing cards. Even the person who was given the destiny of certain victory by the snake could lose to you. I can't think of anyone else who can beat you. But the problem now is, Xia De, in what capacity are you going to participate in the story of the seventh act."
"I'll decide after going to Ms. White's place tonight to listen to the story of the seventh act... Winnie, did Ms. White say anything else to you?"
Xia De asked the ice maid standing behind his chair again. The maid, who was using her fingers to cool the champagne in the champagne bucket, replied:
"Not yet. But I told it that we are not seeking unfair favoritism, but if it can let you participate directly in the seventh act, that would be the best."
The meeting time agreed by Ms. White is always very strange. Last time it was dawn, but this time it was night. However, since all five candidates would appear, Stella naturally would not go.
It's just that since there was still some time after dinner, Xia De took the arcs given by the Church before dinner and went home to cast a batch of special bullets. Unlike the Prophecy Association which gave various carriers, the Church only sought to imbue bullets with destiny.
Casting this batch of bullets did not take much time, and the meeting with Ms. White this time was no longer at the ice lake in the north of the snowy mountain, but at the Peak of Destiny at the top of the snowy mountain. As the main peak of the Schluch Lake snowy mountains, it has extraordinary significance. Gathering the candidates of destiny there, Ms. White was also telling everyone that this story was finally coming to an end.
Because it was unclear whether Ellie would be counted as a "person," the little unicorn was not brought out by Xia De for this outing. Recently, Stella had also gradually begun to master the flying technique, but she did not fly well, and flying alone at night was very unsafe, so the three of them walked out of Sylvia's tower after passing through the ice and snow castle via the portal from the ship that night and prepared to take off. Claire reached out to her apprentice:
"I'll take you to fly. It's not far from here to the main peak, and we'll be there soon."
Seeing Stella actually look at Xia De hesitantly, the Great Witch of the Sun couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied:
"Stella, why, do you think my flying technique is not as good as Xia De's?"
"Teacher, I definitely didn't think so."
Claire raised her eyebrows:
"Since you don't doubt my flying ability, then you want Xia De to hold you and fly even more?"
The white-haired girl's face flushed red, and she couldn't speak. Claire was proud of her small "revenge" for her accidentally breaking into the courtyard last night, but then said:
"Stella, don't worry, I'm not that kind of person like Galina. What I have, you will definitely have too. Why are you in such a hurry now?"
"Claire, what are you talking about?"
Xia De finally couldn't help but speak, and the Great Witch of the Sun smiled very happily:
"You certainly know what I'm talking about, but now is not the time to talk about this. Let's go, I don't want to be the last one to arrive. The story of destiny has finally reached its end. Stella, you have to work hard. If you really become a Chosen One, you will definitely be able to get what you want."
She flew up holding her apprentice's hand. Even if the night wind was cold, it couldn't make the blush on Stella's face fade in a short time:
"The status of a Chosen One?"
Until now, she still had no sense of reality that she would become a Chosen One of destiny. At this moment, being pulled by her teacher to fly toward the snowy mountain, as snowflakes drifted before her eyes, Stella Larson suddenly had a feeling:
"The Chosen One of destiny is definitely not me. I untied the knot in my heart on this island and completed the reconciliation with my past self and tribe. This is already enough."
And when she tried to interpret from the trajectory of the falling snowflakes who would be the most dazzling character on the stage, she found that what she saw was only a reassuring pure white:
"What does this mean... Could it be that the final Chosen One is Ms. White who appears in the form of a white snake?"
This was an even more outrageous idea than "turtle." ===== CHAPTER 3724 =====
