Chapter 3944: Photo

On one side of this factory was a separate apartment building, which was Mr. Finch's living area. He led Xia De to sit down in the reception room on the second floor, and only then did he listen to Xia De talk about the appearance of the 【Holy Son Alliance】 on Sunday afternoon and the matter of the "Source of the Spark."

Although Xia De trusted the 【Light-Guiding Hermit Society】 very much, he did not say that he had already manufactured a "Source of the Spark," only saying that he knew through special channels that the 【Creation Church】 was highly likely researching and manufacturing this kind of thing.

"Edmund told you about the 【Holy Son Alliance】... This is actually not particularly important. There are careerists and lunatics emerging in the material world every moment. What I care more about is the 'Source of the Spark.' If the life spark we saw in the Strange Machine Tower is really a manifestation of calamity, how can the 【Creation Church】 study it?"

"Judging from the control of 【Active Metal】, my guess should be accurate."

Xia De emphasized. Mr. Finch did not disbelieve, he just couldn't imagine the consequences of this:

"Actually, the matter you said can also be verified. Currently, the Papal See of the 【Creation Church】 has gathered three thirteen-ring warlocks at once, which is absolutely impossible under normal circumstances.

Although it is rumored locally that this is because a twelve-ring warlock about to advance has appeared in the 【Creation Church】, I don't quite believe this view. From the current situation, I am afraid this is related to the 'Source of the Spark.'

Arcadia and Tobesk have both appeared with life sparks. In addition, I also heard news that this phenomenon has begun to appear in other cities in the Old World. It's just that the True God Church in small cities has insufficient manpower and cannot determine what is wrong with those out-of-control machines.

In this season, I am afraid that the Church's 'spark research' has also been affected, so they need three thirteen-ring warlocks to sit in the Papal See."

Xia De sat on the sofa, while Mr. Finch paced in the room. He seemed to care more about this matter than anyone who currently knew this guess:

"No, I need to confirm it. Mr. Watson, I have a close friend in the local 【Creation Church】. Although he can't tell me the truth even if he knows it, I think I can go to the door and test it."

He said this and looked in the direction of the church in the city:

"Sorry, I still can't treat you to this lunch today. I will definitely find an opportunity later. I will set off now. Today is Monday, and my old friend should be in the local church.

If you have time, Mr. Watson, please come again in the evening. I will give you an answer by then."

Xia De appreciated such decisive people:

"That's good, but you must also be careful. I don't doubt the 【Creation Church】, but this kind of thing..."

"I understand, young man, I understand very well."

Xia De then said embarrassedly:

"Since I know the particularity of 【Active Metal】 now, I might need this in the future, so I want to reserve more of it before this relic is completely controlled. Mr. Finch, do you have any channels to help me get this?"

The excuse Xia De came up with was very reasonable. Mr. Finch, who was in a hurry to visit his church friend, did not doubt:

"I'll help you ask again in the next two days. Munios might have a channel. But it's not certain that it can be found again, so you should be prepared."

"That's good, then I won't disturb you first, and I'll contact you in the evening... Please be sure to be careful."

Xia De had a bad premonition in his heart, so he warned again when he got up to say goodbye. Mr. Finch said he understood, and at the same time, he told Xia De:

"If you come to find me in the evening today and I am not there, and the apprentices in the workshop don't know my whereabouts, then try your best to notify others in the Hermit Society that I have had an accident. Although our organization cannot compare with the True God Church, we have many friends."

Seeing that it was lunch time again, without an advance appointment, it was not convenient for Xia De to visit Mr. Old Leibori directly, so Xia De went home for lunch this day.

Today is Monday, and everyone is busy, so only Little Mia is at home. Lunch was still prepared by Winnie. Xia De was very curious about how Winnie always seemed to know when the house needed her. There must be some secret to this.

When Xia De returned home, he put the "Source of the Spark" on the dining table. The cat also walked over to take a look while waiting for lunch.

Xia De was sitting at the table at this time, so he didn't stop it. The cat, which was full of curiosity, just reached out its paw and touched it, watched it roll a few times on the table, lost interest, and then excitedly went to look at Winnie in the kitchen.

Since only Xia De was at home, the maid also stayed for lunch, and Xia De shared his worries with her:

"In my opinion, although I have seen some people in the True God Church go on the wrong path in Moon Bay and other areas in the past, this is the first time I suspect that the entire Church has problems.

The Five God Churches maintain the most basic order of this era. I never thought that there would be such a situation before."

Winnie's understanding of this era was limited to these few months, so she looked at this matter from a longer-term perspective:

"There is no organization that is completely just. That is something that only exists in storybooks. But I don't think the entire 【Creation Church】 has problems. After all, the True Gods still exist, and God will not allow their believers to go too far on the wrong path."

Xia De nodded:

"In the past era, have there been cases where God took the initiative to punish believers?"

Winnie sat opposite Xia De and tilted her head to think:

"Yes, but very rare. Most of the Great Ones actually don't care much about mortal affairs. Unless it is something very blasphemous or very wrong, to the extent that it will endanger the world, God usually does not take the initiative to punish."

Xia De nodded clearly, thinking in his heart whether he had a chance to see divine punishment.

After lunch, Xia De went to Arcadia again. The overcast sky finally brewed into spring rain in the afternoon, but compared to the heavy rain yesterday, the rain today was obviously much smaller.

Finch went to visit friends, Weige was not at home now, and Xia De could not contact Mr. Bernhardt who didn't know where he was hiding, so he decided to find Mr. Old Leibori while he finally had time.

But very coincidentally, the old gentleman was not at home. It was raining, and Xia De had nowhere to ask others where he went. So, Xia De, who felt that he had many things to deal with in this city, suddenly found that he had nowhere to go.

"If Miss Sabeier could also appear today, I could sit in Madame Bovary's tea house with her."

It's just a pity that the mysterious blonde lady didn't appear again. Xia De thought for a while under the alley entrance and decided to go to the "Strange Machine Tower" to see if Mr. Munios was there.

But this gentleman was also not there. Everyone seemed to have their own things to do on this Monday.

However, since he had already arrived in the upper city, Xia De finally went to the Fragrant Mansion. Although Weige was definitely not at home, Xia De could also spend some time there.

The house manager, Miss Luolin, received Xia De who visited from the rain. Because Xia De saved her, Miss Luolin had a very high favorability for Xia De.

She informed Xia De that Weige had sent people to the black market to spread news about the 【Blood Spirit School】 and the 【Holy Son Alliance】. She also said that after the Witch Council meeting ended last night, Weige seemed unhappy when she came back.

"What happened?"

Xia De asked curiously. When Megan came back from the meeting yesterday, she didn't mention this.

Miss Luolin revealed some of Weige's "privacy" within the permitted scope:

"Miss said she wanted to find the witch who was close to you, but everyone's performance was very normal."

After all, except for Claire, everyone was not experiencing this kind of thing for the first time, and they now knew that they were the "majority." If they were easily seen through by Weige, that would be strange.

"If Weige takes the initiative to ask me, I will tell her."

Xia De expressed. Although Miss Jia Lin Na forbade him to take the initiative to say, if Weige insisted on asking, it would not belong to Xia De's initiative. Although this would make Miss Jia Lin Na a bit disappointed, the Duchess would also think that this was Weige taking the initiative to "admit defeat."

Miss Luolin obviously didn't think her master wanted to know the truth through this channel:

"Although the master has been physically weak since childhood, her personality has always been strong."

She also intended to promote her master's "good things":

"However, it is rare for her to be so attentive to a thing like this, even for us who are almost by her side every day. Mr. Watson, you will treat the master well, right?"

"We are just friends for the time being... What kind of look is this... Alright, although I like more than one girl, I will definitely not hurt Weige. I can guarantee this."

Miss Luolin smiled:

"Then should I take the master's photos from before for you to see? The master was also very beautiful when she was a child. I was only ten years old when I first saw her. At that time, she was simply like a little angel."

Miss Luolin had quite high authority in this house, and she could even take out Weige's private photo album without permission. However, in the eyes of the manager lady, her master would probably praise her for this.

So Xia De really saw Weige's photos in the sound of rain this afternoon. Noble families mostly had the habit of taking photos of their children every year, and there were quite a few photos of Weige.

Miss Luolin was right. Even before Weige came into contact with the witch's power, her appearance was top-notch among her peers. So Xia De guessed again that perhaps her appearance advantage as the most beautiful Great Witch of this generation was not because the seat was special, but because she was already very outstanding in appearance.

And she was also sickly when she was a child. This could also be seen from the black and white photos.

Miss Luolin grew up with Weige, and her parents worked for the Astley family, so she could be counted as absolute own people. Therefore, when Xia De flipped through the photo album, Miss Luolin would tell some interesting stories about those photos from time to time.

Xia De also learned from this that Weige didn't like to drink very bitter medicine since she was a child and always asked to eat sugar before drinking medicine. And during her rebellious period at the age of thirteen or fourteen, she wanted to cut her beautiful black hair into short hair, but later she dreamed that she was bald because of cutting short hair, so she was so scared that she never dared to cut her hair again. ===== CHAPTER 3945 =====
