Chapter 3834

Xia De continued to look at the sea of clouds under the mountain with his hands behind his back. When the time was almost up, he took out a broken sword that looked ordinary given by the doctor.

Afterward, he first placed the mirror on the snow surface at his feet, and then fiercely stabbed the broken sword toward the middle of the mirror. So in the sound of glass shattering, boundless darkness seeped out from the cracks in the mirror.

Not long after, the doctor walked out of that darkness:

"Good morning, detective, look, the weather here is really good."

"Good morning, doctor... I hope you can find a remote transmission method that looks more normal."

The doctor, who bent down to collect the ritual items on the ground, was quite indifferent to this:

"It doesn't matter, anyway, except for you, no one will summon me."

"Actually, I'm doing it for my own reputation."

The weather was really good, and neither Xia De nor the doctor had other urgent things to do this morning, so the two walked up the steps of the Road of Atonement unhurriedly, telling each other about the fresh things after the Battle of Destiny.

Although Xia De had returned home these past few days, he just put down some items and left, so he didn't know much about Tobesk. The doctor told Xia De the news that everyone had long foreseen:

"The first batch of conscripts in the Tobesk area this year has already boarded the train to the southern front. When the train departed yesterday, it is said that the family members who went to see them off almost squeezed the station down. It has been many years since soldiers from the Tobesk area were placed on the southern border line."

The doctor followed Xia De and walked through the archway at the end of the Road of Atonement with him. Ahead was the silver-shining snow surface:

"But also because of the conscription, my business has also improved a lot."

"Conscription and your... someone wants you to identify mental problems?"

Xia De reacted immediately, and the doctor nodded:

"I am one of the few psychologists in the Tobesk area who can issue a 'mental illness certificate'. The Ministry of War of the Kingdom is also unwilling to let unstable lunatics hold guns to the front line, so a few types of mental illnesses can be exempted from military service after being confirmed."

"The war hasn't started yet, and someone is actually doing this kind of thing... Then doctor, have you issued a certificate that can exempt from military service?"

Xia De asked curiously again, and the doctor smiled:

"In principle, I am very professionally ethical. But I have also met several young people who really resisted enlistment. Even if I don't help, they might go find other ways. Everything has a price, so I issued a certificate and sent them to some... special hospitals outside Tobesk City."

"I warned them in advance, but they said they would rather stay in the hospital until the war ends than enlist."

"Tsk tsk, that kind of hospital is managed by the Church, right? I remember that once you live in, it seems that not many people can come out?"

To this, Xia De could only say:

"Then wish them good luck."

Winnie had already informed Xia De of the specific location where the broken sword would appear, so the maid didn't need to come over in person. At this time, Xia De and the doctor used illusions to block their sight, but in fact, there were not many people in the ruins, so even if they didn't use illusions, no one would notice them.

The two continued to chat about conscription and the weather. When the doctor mentioned the topic of "military doctor", they arrived at their destination. It was an inconspicuous broken wall on the northeast side of the ruins. The remaining wall surfaces on the left and right sides formed a right-angled corner. Both Xia De and the doctor could feel the folded space at the corner slowly unfolding.

Seeing that it would take another minute or two, Xia De asked again:

"Will psychologists also be conscripted?"

"Of course not, but I still received a letter. I only knew after going to City Hall that psychologists were also classified as doctors on the registration form. But they heard that I only make people sleep better, neither treat trauma nor boil herbal medicine, and don't even know the most basic bloodletting and enema therapy, so they let me leave directly."

In fact, Dr. Schneider couldn't have been conscripted at all. He was also a relatively famous psychologist in the East District of Tobesk, and many nobles had been treated by him. The conscription order sounded terrible to civilians, but it didn't count for anything to nobles.

"Looking at it this way, it really is the eve of war now."

Xia De stood in the sun and said, while the doctor stood in the shadow of that wall leaning against the wall:

"It's not that fast, but spring is coming. At most a month, at the fastest it might be next week. As for how long the war will last, that's hard to say. The weather in Tobesk is similar to here. After the Battle of Destiny, the temperature is rising rapidly. Now both countries are making final mobilization for the battlefield. Now it depends on who fires the first shot."

Xia De sighed, looking down at the space at the corner of the wall constantly expanding. This is a process that is difficult to describe. Neither he nor the doctor moved, but the distance between them was increasing, but in terms of senses, the corner of the wall had no change at all.

"Let's talk about something happy, doctor, do you remember the matter of little Beren I mentioned?"

"Of course I remember, the child you resurrected in the temple."

"Just before summoning you, I went to visit her with the Chosen One this time, she... let's talk about it later."

The two looked at the snow surface at the corner of the low wall with serious faces. At the moment when that streak of deep black light appeared, the doctor grabbed it, not letting that powerful and strange power leak out even a little bit.

The broken blade transformed from part of the essence of the "Demon of Weapons" appeared again, but because of the infiltration of Snake's powerful power, now this broken sword gave Xia De the feeling that it was no longer a pure demon essence.

Although the broken sword didn't emit dim yellow light, when it was waved in the doctor's hand, it was clearly dropping yellow sand downward. The yellow sand seemed to be secreted by the broken sword body itself. Xia De touched those sand dusts. Although they possessed whispering elements, the power was not particularly strong.

Strictly speaking, this sword no longer counts as a weapon transformed by demon power. Although it has whispering elements, it is not strong, so it doesn't reach the threshold of a relic. I don't know if it was because it collided with Xia De's maze world, but it also has miracle, blasphemy, and enlightenment elements, but none of them are strong.

"Better than I thought, this sword shed its demon attributes and has now become a very strange thing. I knew that if you want to erase the demon's power, you can only use stronger power."

The doctor said, handing it to Xia De:

"Since it no longer has demon attributes, this broken sword is useless to me, you take it."

"I already have 【Night Watcher】, what do I need this sword for?"

Although he said so, Xia De still took it, and then immediately noticed the "calamity attribute" on the broken sword. This is somewhat similar to the 【Calamity Cards】 held by Xia De, but it is far from being as powerful as any card.

"She" whispered:

【Outsider, holding this unnamed ritual broken sword, when using low-ring sublimation language to summon Adele Isabella, you no longer need to pay extra Philosopher's Stone; when using power related to doomsday, if the power is not strong, it will not trigger the early arrival of doomsday.】

Summoning witches of the Fifth Era with low-ring sublimation language only needs to satisfy the conditions, but the time and space Adele is in is special, so it always needed "Philosopher's Stone" for high-efficiency spellcasting to call her before.

As for "not strong doomsday power", this must have nothing to do with the cards in Xia De's hand. So he thought about giving this broken sword to Luvia, so that even if long-haired Luvia is inconvenient to help sometimes, his beloved girl also has the power to protect herself.

"This broken sword is the most important gain of this Battle of Destiny besides 'Fall' and divinity. But in this way, every time I summon Adele, I need to get the sword back from Luvia first... I hope Adele doesn't misunderstand, this is really not any conspiracy of Luvia."

"She" smiled gently, and Xia De hung the broken sword on his waist very casually, and then signaled Dr. Schneider to follow him to walk toward the uphill of the cliff.

The two continued the topic that hadn't ended just now:

"Before summoning you, I went to the church in the city to visit little Beren. The child is already a month old, healthy and energetic. Although she will definitely become a ring sorcerer in the future, I think she can at least have a very happy childhood.

The 【Rebirth】 destiny I am going to handle in a while was generated because of her. That child did indeed gain rebirth because of me."

Although the doctor had never been married, he was also very friendly to children:

"Although it's not appropriate to say so, this can be considered a blessing in disguise. The future can be chosen by the child herself. In this era, how many people can freely choose their future?"

The doctor obviously thought of himself:

"Anyway, it's convenient for you to come and go between the island and your home, you can come to see her often... or forget it, with your current identity, it's not suitable to contact her often."

"Yes, I will entrust the Fatum people to come and visit her often."

The two walked along the road cleared under the cliff wall toward the uphill position of the cliff. While talking, they had already arrived at the entrance of the Upper Spring.

They didn't stop, but both looked at the waterfall. Xia De said with a smile again:

"Doctor, don't you try to condense destiny? Ms. White told Luvia that you blocked the fatal blow sprayed by the snake from the sea by relying on 【Bad Luck】 and 【Protection】, so you can go and resonate with another destiny."

The doctor shook his head:

"You also said it yourself, solidified destiny doesn't have much significance. What's truly important is to let yourself understand your own destiny."

The two were in an invisible state, and their boots wouldn't make a sound when stepping on the cleared path in the snow. Xia De continued to ask curiously:

"Then doctor, what do you think your third destiny might be?"
