Chapter 3747: Apple and Ouroboros Pupil

The apple lying on the snow in the wind and snow glowed slightly. The nature of the curved arc had not actually changed; the apple was still solidified fate, but under Ellie's talent, its appearance and shape had changed.

But even so, this ability to change the shape of solidified fate was quite terrifying. Even if Luweiya were here, she would probably be surprised by this scene. The reason why fate is a circular ring is because the God of Fate is an Ouroboros. And now that fate can be turned into an apple, perhaps it means...

But Ellie didn't care about other things. After raising her head and seeing that the apple had really appeared, she happily "huh~" to ask Little Mia if she wanted to eat something. After getting a disgusted cat meow, Ellie ate the glowing apple that the curved arc had turned into—this was also something others couldn't do.

So Ellie's fate ring appeared again, and the brand-new spirit rune blasphemy - 【Freeze】 was engraved on the fate ring. This spirit rune was completely consistent with the fate represented by the curved arc.

The little unicorn was quite satisfied with this, but the cat meow "meow~" on her head made her turn around and look at the rock wall where the ice layer had just been smashed by her.

At this time, the white mist formed by the falling ice and snowflakes had disappeared, and the huge golden snake-shaped rune clearly appeared on the flat cliff.

Although Ellie didn't know what this was, she could feel that this rune was more ancient than the oldest bloodline memory she possessed, and more mysterious than the most mysterious story she had ever heard from Chloe.

At this moment, Ellie understood that her and Little Mia's actions tonight were to break the seal of similar runes in thirteen places in the snow mountain. So after raising her horn and calling out "huh~", Ellie carried the cat and crashed into the rock wall again.

In the crackling sound that all Ringed Shushi in the entire Falling Star Bay could hear, the ancient snake-shaped rune dissipated under the impact of the unicorn's horn.

An earthquake without warning trembled the island and the seabed at this moment. The mermaid girls scattered in the bay were terrified to find black cracks appearing on the seabed. Something huge suppressed under the Falling Star Bay trembled for the first time in hundreds of thousands of years as the first seal shattered.

The starry sky became more chaotic tonight, and even the most brilliant astrologers could no longer interpret the stars at this moment. Snowflakes drifted outside the window of the Drowned Ghost Tavern, the girls on the Radiant Messenger had serious expressions, figures were coming in and out of the church door in the city, and the prophets in the Prophet Society were trying to interpret new fate through the cracks in the crystal ball.

Countless people looked at the towering snow mountain at this moment, feeling the terrifying power of the terrible fate sealed by the ancient gods released in an instant. Ringed Shushi with high enough perception could even hear a snake's roar while closing their eyes, which meant that more of Mr. Snake's power was pouring out from the seal.

The night became darker, the wind and snow became heavier, and the "beast" manifested from fate in the darkness, after being stained with the fate of doomsday, ran toward the stage of the Seventh Act story at this moment.

However, these had nothing to do with Ellie for the time being. When her figure fell, all the golden light emitted after the snake-shaped golden rune broke fell on her and Little Mia. The cat had no interest in these lights, and when the rich miracle elements entered Ellie's body, the fate ring she hadn't put away had silently turned into a two-ring.

After breaking the rune, the power of the ancient gods was gifted to the little unicorn. She lay slowly on the snow and closed her eyes to feel this new power. She understood that she had become much stronger, and had become more adept at using the power gained because of the connected fate.

Of course, Ellie didn't know what kind of influence her actions just now had caused.

In the Keltod Town, which was under martial law tonight, in the snow mountain hall, Beiya, who had rushed from the ship after receiving Claire's news, just wanted to ask Claire if she had really found the 【Ouroboros Pupil】, when she saw Claire, Elder Harald, and Elder Vilda looking at the direction of the snow mountain with serious expressions.

"What's wrong?"

Beiya asked, and Claire shook her head:

"I just had a very strange feeling, as if one of the nails stuck in the snow mountain had been pulled out, and the snow mountain became more..."

"Real, and the spirituality of the snow mountain became easier to touch. The power of the snow mountain is being liberated. While the terrible existence sealed by the ancient gods is getting out of trouble, because the snow mountain does not need to seal it with its own power, the power we can borrow from the snow mountain will also become stronger."

Elder Harald added for Claire, and Claire nodded hesitantly:

"It seems that someone made a key move in the card game in the tavern, and I don't know how my mother is... Beiya, you take a look at this. Grandma and I think this might be the 【Ouroboros Pupil】."

She opened the box placed on the long table. Inside was an ice crystal in the shape of a pebble. The ice crystal emitted coldness outward and possessed an exceptionally powerful miracle element.

Elder Vilda, wearing a sheep-horn hat, introduced to the Great Mage of Fate:

"This is the holy relic of us Fatu people—Ice Jade, also known as Snake Jade. Some time ago, we communicated with our distant relatives in the Jibei. This piece of ice jade was not brought from the Jibei by our ancestors, so this is a holy relic obtained after our ancestors settled here."

"This holy relic can display the Ringed Shushi level information of the toucher, and after using a specific method, it can also guide the fate for the toucher. The God-Caller had touched this holy relic and gained a lot."

The mages all knew about this. The Ice Jade told Xia De the clue to the high-ring sublimation language, which was falling from the snow mountain (Chapter 3268).

And thinking of this, Beiya felt that this ice jade was probably the artifact she and Luweiya were looking for. Xia De had mentioned this item many times, but before tonight, no one had realized the secret it might hide.

Of course, whether it was really the 【Ouroboros Pupil】 had to be verified. Beiya took out a heart-shaped ruby, which was the 【Snake Heart】 in the temple exchange list. She held this 【Snake Heart】 in one hand and touched the Ice Jade with the other. After careful casting, a touch of ice color appeared on the surface of the 【Snake Heart】, and a touch of blood color emerged on the Ice Jade in her right hand:

"Yes, this is the artifact left by the God of Fate—the Ouroboros Pupil!"

Beiya didn't expect to find this artifact so smoothly. After asking for the elders' opinions, she planned to bring it back to the ship. And Claire still had to stay in the snow mountain hall for a while. In order to disperse the opponent's power, Mr. Snake would definitely manipulate "beasts," demons, and other things to attack the town. Claire still needed to coordinate the subsequent defense forces here.

In addition to the Fatu people themselves, Claire's followers and some elves would also participate in the battle to defend the town. At this moment, the sharp-eared elf archers had already climbed the towers and wooden city walls outside the town, the mage followers were confirming whether the defense ritual was safe for the last time, and the Fatu priests were trying to borrow more power from the snow mountain.

And just as Ellie shattered the first seal, beside the card table in the Drowned Ghost Tavern at the pier of the Clockwork City, the card game had already reached the third turn. The people who had finally directed their respective characters to enter the snow mountain area and were thinking about how to use their decks to counter the next battle turn all heard a clear clanging sound.

Golden streamers emerged from the void, and then condensed into a gold coin that fell from the sky and landed in the center of the card table, shaking for several seconds before stopping completely. Xia De's dynamic vision was very good, and he was sure that this was not any style of coin he was familiar with.

This was not even a currency-type coin. In Xia De's view, this was a condensation of the power of ancient gods. It was not the supreme power of "divinity," but a crystal condensed from miracle elements. He guessed that this should be useful to Lady White.

The five people were just whispering to discuss countermeasures. Although they were strangers to each other and belonged to a competitive relationship, the five people here were ordinary people after all. After the card game had been going on for a while, they all became familiar with each other, willing to provide suggestions to each other and guess what kind of situation they would encounter next.

The atmosphere of the card game was actually quite good. Compared to the story characters who were currently braving the wind and snow to enter the mountain area in the middle of the night, the environment where the players were was not only warm and comfortable, but there were also drinks, side dishes, and even snacks on the table—this was provided by Lady White.

They all looked at Lady White, and the lady stood up and took the coin:

"The first of the thirteen seals has been liberated, the story progress has moved forward, and the stage has changed—the probability of characters encountering enemies during the action has increased slightly. When using power related to fate, the effect will be more obvious. The probability of snake-like enemies appearing has increased. The probability of obtaining the special item 'Curved Arc' after eliminating any enemy has increased."

"But our five characters have just entered the mountain area... Is it the sixth character, that unicorn who liberated the first seal?"

Prince Samuel Anru guessed, and Lady White nodded, placing the coin beside her hand:

"Yes, so there are only twelve seal locations left for you... The total number of effective cards you five have played has reached twelve, so before the next round of playing cards, I will draw and use a card for the sixth character in the story."

She flipped over the top card of the deck, glanced at it, and threw it directly onto the table, letting the players see the content on it:

"【Aid · Partner】, choose a companion whose power is weaker than the character themselves to join the adventure. This is an opportunity and also a danger. The companion is not protected by fate. Whether the help brought or the trouble brought is greater is also a puzzle from fate."

Lady White did not tell the players what kind of companion Ellie had obtained at this moment. Although Xia De was very worried, he could only take care of Stella's affairs first.
