Chapter 3956

~11 min read 2,005 words

The things that happened today were mainly the "Life Aberration" encountered during the three-person adventure in the morning, and the news from Dannister at night about the situation of the Holy See. These things were making the status quo in the Arcadia region increasingly complex.

"One of the conditions for becoming the 'Chosen of Creation' is to create something, which sounds very reasonable."

Galina said about this, and was really considering whether "breeding life" met the requirements.

Luweiya frowned and pondered, also thinking about what "creation" mentioned in this incomplete "poem fragment" meant to create.

Xia De actually had a guess about this. The long-haired girl once said a sentence in a dream not long ago that Xia De didn't understand at the time. Xia De thought he found the answer, but he still needed evidence to confirm it.

"The Creation Sect actually took out such important information to stall the joint inquiry of the three major academies and the four churches. This can only show that the value they harvested from the 'fire seed source' is much greater than this poem fragment."

Luweiya analyzed very calmly:

"The 【Creation Sect】 is definitely not all problematic, but among the three Thirteen-Rings in the Holy See, at least one person knows about the 'fire seed source'."

"But I think the subsequent development of this matter has a very small probability of breaking out into a battle. The people who know the truth in the 【Creation Sect】 obviously found some way to cover up the 'fire seed source.' They will probably cooperate very much with the investigations of other forces in the next few days. As long as the giant 'fire seed source' cannot be found in the end, the 【Creation Sect】 will only need to throw out some small characters to take the blame."

"Do I need to find it myself? Relying on the 'fire seed source' in my hand, as long as the thing manufactured by the church is still local, I should be able to find it."

Xia De asked. He needed to refer to the girls' opinions on this matter.

Luweiya and Galina looked at each other:

"The key now is not whether that giant fire seed source can be found. The key now is how to let the matter subside peacefully and reasonably. You don't show up for the time being, just wait for the situation to develop."

Xia De nodded:

"Vigo's meaning is also to let me focus on dealing with things in the city. Although the number of high-ring combat power in the Arcadia region is soaring now, the attention of the Five Gods Church has been drawn to the outside of the city. Maybe someone will take action because of this."

"I will continue to investigate the 【Blood Spirit School】 and the 【Son Alliance】. Since the church has taken out the poem fragment, are the appearances of these two organizations also for the tenth Chosen?"

"If this is really the case, they must also have a very clear poem fragment in their hands!"

Luweiya looked at Xia De:

"Aren't you going to wait until the middle of next month to connect with the local Grey Gloves? Then your main task in the near future is to investigate the purpose of these two illegal Ring Ringed Ringed Shushi organizations coming to Arcadia, and then collect enough information to infer the possible identity of the tenth Chosen."

"The battle of the Chosen is about to start again~ I don't know what kind of people the opponents will be this time."

Galina sighed, and then asked Xia De:

"In Arcadia, do you know any acquaintances or unicorns from the Fifth Era who suddenly popped up? If the Chosen this time is still someone we know, that would be great."

"After Emilia and Ellie, the possibility of another Chosen having a major connection with us is not high."

Xia De shook his head with a smile:

"But now we can start considering candidates in this regard. The one I know in Arcadia who understands creation best should be that Mr. Finch."

"It's too early to say these things. Wait for Xia De to collect some more information, and I can try to perform divination."

Luweiya said, and on this Tuesday night, the conversation between the three lasted until ten o'clock. However, after Xia De let everyone not stay up late and go to sleep, Luweiya, who had passed the period of physical discomfort, stayed in Xia De's room again.

During the night activities, Galina mentioned the current Arcadia region "inadvertently" again. Like the "Moon Sanctuary" in Vesta Forest, it can effectively increase the probability of reproduction. The former is because of the "Calamity of Creation · Life Fire Seed," and the latter is because of the "Calamity of the Moon · Crazy Moon."

"If the 【Moon Sanctuary】 could be transferred to the Arcadia region, it would be great."

The red-haired witch whispered, sticking her ear to the front of Luweiya, who was practicing riding, listening to the natural sound of life reproduction.

Luweiya didn't express anything about this, but Xia De could still feel that she was more enthusiastic tonight than ever before.

Xia De originally expected to be able to see the long-haired girl again and talk to her about recent things, but it was a pity that she didn't let Xia De appear in that doomsday dream.

But that didn't matter. When he woke up from the silver moon dream, it was already Wednesday, the 29th day of the Sowing Month. Soon a new month was about to begin, and Xia De would be able to see Adele and long-haired Luweiya, the two girls closely related to the "past life," again.

In the first two days of this week, people came here in a hurry at breakfast. Now Iluna and Dannister were in Arcadia. Xia De thought that Wednesday could finally be quieter. Unexpectedly, early Wednesday morning, he went downstairs to get goat milk and newspapers, and sighed that the air quality in Tobesk this spring was getting worse and worse, a figure passed through the dense morning fog and came here.

"Good morning, detective~"

The person waved at Xia De.

"Good morning..."

Xia De sighed:

"Dr. Schneider."

The doctor wearing a black hat asked in surprise:

"Seeing me early in the morning makes you so unhappy?"

Xia De was not unhappy, but just knew that he probably had new things to do.

However, the doctor was not here for a free meal. After he entered the door and smelled the fragrant breakfast, he guessed that someone was cooking upstairs. Xia De didn't have this craft. Therefore, he didn't go upstairs, but talked to Xia De on the first floor about the purpose of his coming so early.

"Wait a minute, doctor, let me guess first—you found that a demon appeared in Arcadia City?"

The doctor was very surprised:

"Of course not, why do you suspect that I came to you, it must be for the demon?"

This made Xia De a little embarrassed:

"Sorry, then why are you here so early..."

"I went out at three o'clock in the morning and went to Mr. Copus outside the city to buy things. You know, old John doesn't sell any materials related to corpses. If you want to buy that kind of material, you can only go outside the city to find Mr. Copus."

"I bought a lot of things this time, and that silent gentleman chatted with me a few more words, and then I heard that he had 【Active Metal】. Didn't you mention this on Saturday? Although you said you had already found a seller, when I returned to the city just now, I still thought of coming here to tell you."

The doctor said, Xia De was a little surprised:

"Mr. Copus is not a Ring Ringed Ringed Shushi who studies necromancy? How could he have this... Yes, I really need 【Active Metal】. Doctor, this news helped a lot!"

Although Xia De occasionally went to Mr. Copus, his demand for this kind of material was not great. If the doctor hadn't taken the initiative to provide news, Xia De would probably have taken a week to discover that there was such material locally.

"You always help me, it's nothing for me to help you pass news occasionally. However, the black market on Mr. Copus's side is only open at night. If you are in a hurry, you can go over and ask tonight. I mentioned to him that you might go, and when the time comes, discuss the price, maybe you can reach a deal directly."

Dr. Schneider said again, then grabbed the hat on the coffee table:

"Okay, the news is told to you, then I'll go back first. Before the first patient comes to the door at ten o'clock, I can still rest for a while."

Xia De then sent him to the door, but in the foyer, the doctor finally mentioned the demon:

"I have basically digested the power of the 'Demon of Weapons' now. The information related to 'that person' contained in its memory can be fully excavated in the near future. At that time, you need to go to my place. No matter what the information is, except for myself, only you are qualified to know."

The doctor waved his hat at Xia De, opened the door and entered the morning fog again, but disappeared in a moment.

Xia De went out again to open the milk box and took the goat milk, feeling that his mood suddenly became better. If he could get a new copy of 【Active Metal】 tonight, maybe he could open the key again tonight and return to the 【Blood Factory】. Pink dragon Gina from St. Byrons, the halfling witch suspected of being related to the ancient Creation Sect, and the old witch from the 【Creation Sect】, these companions were all waiting for him to go together to light more life melting furnaces.

Although he still didn't understand how Mr. Copus had this kind of relic, Xia De took it as a small surprise in life. Accidents will not only manifest in the form of "bad luck." Luck is also a small embellishment that constitutes life.

At breakfast, Xia De shared this good news with Luweiya and Galina. Miss Diviner was also very familiar with Mr. Copus. Most of the special materials for the group were purchased from him.

Galina had heard Xia De talk about this person before:

"I remember you said that you felt this person was very strange?"

"Yes, he guards the cemetery of a small village in the north of the city. Except for us Ring Mages who go to him for transactions, basically no one has heard his name. He is a Seven-Ring mage, probably an expert in necromancy. Oh, during the Battle of Midhillburg, I got a lot of necromancy materials from the 'Gap of Life and Death' and sold them to him, but I made a small fortune."

Xia De said, and Luweiya recalled:

"It was the doctor who introduced me to Mr. Copus. Xia De is right. This person's reputation is indeed not obvious. Almost no one in the city knows him. I remember old John mentioned to me once that Mr. Copus's black market has existed for a very, very long time. He seems to have been there, but no one knows his identity background and specific origin."

"However, everyone admits that the quality of special materials in Mr. Copus's place has always been very good, and his source of goods has never caused trouble for everyone. This is better than most black market merchants in the city."

There are different black market areas of various sizes in the Tobesk area. Most black markets are related to some mysterious organization, but Xia De has no intention to explore the secrets of everyone he meets, so although he is curious about Mr. Copus, he has never thought about spying on other people's privacy.
