Chapter 3985: Opening the Grave

Xia De held the teary-eyed Vigo and thought hesitantly:

"I don't want your Speaker to know of my existence for the time being... I will turn into a cat and hide in Ms. McDonald's arms. Your Speaker has seen my transformed form before, so don't let her notice this cat."

Xia De said, turning into a ball of silver light in front of Vigo, and then transformed into a silver cat smaller than Little Mia.

Ms. McDonald then bent down, and Xia De the cat leaped lightly onto her arm. The girl, whose face was still pale, actually felt warmth at this moment because of the cat's presence. She pursed her lips and stood there motionless, and no one knew what she was thinking.

After waiting for a while, Adele, Megan, and Bella were called to Vigo's room to hear Vigo, with red eyes, recount her "nightmare."

That skin was also brought back by Xia De and was currently placed in the corner of the room. The three witches who heard the story had different expressions, but in fact, only Adele had just learned the news:

"Vigo, you mean..."

"I want to go to the family cemetery to dig out my father's coffin. I want to verify my bloodline."

"Vigo, is your mother also buried in the cemetery?"

Megan thought that ancestors could fake their deaths, and maybe she would encounter a fake death again this time. Vigo also thought of this possibility, or rather, she had now applied all kinds of conspiracy theories to her mother:

"Yes, Mother passed away after giving birth to me and was buried there first. After Father passed away, he was buried with her."

The Astley family had a traditional family cemetery locally. The cemetery was built before the founding of Karsenrik, and that Duke of the old era who voluntarily surrendered to Karsenrik was also buried in this cemetery.

The cemetery was not in the urban area but in the nearby mountain forest area. After leaving the Fragrant Mansion, there was no need to go down the mountain, but to move west along the mountain, leave the urban area from the side of the upper city, and walk along the small path on the mountain to reach this ancient cemetery.

No one was in the mood to appreciate the night view tonight. In addition to the four Great Witches, many of Vigo's girls also followed, and Ms. McDonald stood in the crowd holding Xia De the cat.

After whispering an apology to her parents, Vigo, wrapped in a long trench coat and constantly comforted by Adele and Bella, signaled the girls to open the joint tomb.

Megan stood by the grave to prevent accidents, and the speed of casting spells to dig a grave was actually very fast.

Two coffins soon appeared in the grave, and all the soil in the grave was moved to the ground nearby. Megan glanced at Vigo, and after confirming her nod, she raised her hands to let the two coffins fly out.

The four witches came to the coffins, and Vigo pointed to the one on the left:

"This is Father's coffin, and the one on the right is Mother's."

Even Xia De the cat stretched his head to look forward. After the coffin nails were removed one by one, the lids of the coffins were opened in turn. Vigo took a look inside and then threw herself into Adele's arms and cried again. The Thirteenth-Tier Adele was not much affected by Vigo's constitution, and she continued to comfort this poor girl.

Xia De the cat could not see the situation inside the coffin, so Ms. McDonald said as if talking to herself:

"The corpses are all there, and the funerary items are all there too."

The thick nanmu coffin, brass sealing, and antiseptic treatment before burial made the two corpses experience more than twenty years of baptism, but the soft tissues were significantly dehydrated and shrunken, and the skin was dark brown and leathery, which was a state of mummification, and even the outline of the face could be vaguely seen.

The witches randomly opened three other graves nearby and confirmed that Vigo's father's corpse had not been swapped through bloodline consistency. Then Bella, the Great Witch of Fate, took some tissue from Vigo's father's corpse and Vigo's blood for testing.

Divining blood relationships was also a job that diviners often did. She was very good at it and soon gave good news:

"No problem, Vigo is indeed a direct descendant of this male corpse. I am very sure that this conclusion is absolutely no problem. If the content of Vigo's nightmare is true, this only means she has an older sister or younger sister... or an aunt in terms of blood relationship."

Xia De did not have time to ask about the specific time of that "breeding experiment" while the "Skin-Questioning Art" effect lasted, but considering that her mother passed away after Vigo was born, the necklace that opened the box had always been kept by Vigo's father and passed on to Vigo later. So if Vigo really had a sister, then it was highly likely that it was Vigo's older sister.

Vigo was not born through strange means, which was good news for anyone. Xia De the cat also breathed a sigh of relief. Although he did not mind Vigo's background, it was of course better to be normal.

And Vigo herself, after a moment of joy, sobbed and continued to cry. Adele comforted her and signaled Megan and Bella to check Vigo's mother, that is, Ms. Leme's corpse.

On the one hand, to determine whether this was really the other party's corpse, and on the other hand, to continue to check the blood relationship between Vigo and the corpse. After all, things like skin objects had appeared, and there was currently a very small possibility that Vigo had nothing to do with Peggy Leme.

Checking this corpse took a little longer. After all, even if a Ringed Shushi died, the corpse was not necessarily absolutely safe. Xia De the cat was held by Ms. McDonald and waited patiently in Ms. McDonald's arms.

However, he found that Megan and Bella would secretly glance over here from time to time, and Vigo was the same. Even Adele had cast glances in this direction several times, but Xia De was not sure if this was an illusion.

Megan and Bella's inspection also had a definite result:

"Vigo is indeed a direct descendant of this human body. But this human body is highly likely not a corpse."

Vigo looked at them immediately:

"Not Mother's corpse? You mean, Mother might not be dead yet?"

Megan shook her head and explained patiently to her:

"This corpse is indeed your mother's flesh and blood, but this is not a corpse, but a complete shell regrown after cultivating with a part of the flesh and blood of the body. You know that my ancestor's situation is more complicated, and I have seen similar techniques. Whether it is creation or necromancy experts, they can actually do this."

"Didn't your dream say that your mother could create flesh-and-blood clones? This should be considered something similar."

"So, this is indeed not a corpse, but it is not necessarily a fake death to escape. There is this possibility: your mother was worried that her corpse would cause trouble in the future, so she used means to swap the corpse before she died, and placed the real corpse in another place to prevent the tranquility of the cemetery from being disturbed."

But the possibility of Vigo's mother faking her death still existed, so Bella comforted her again:

"Even after more than twenty years, this fake corpse still has unstable trace amounts of whispering elements remaining. This proves that when this shell was cultivated, your mother's physical problems caused by the Emerald Tablet were already very serious. She is highly likely really dead..."

Bella finally could not confirm Peggy Leme's condition, so the conclusion was a bit vague, so Adele comforted Vigo again:

"But at least you can rest assured, you are indeed a child conceived by your father and mother, not a product of strange experiments. You are natural, beautiful, and not a child born in defiance of the world order. Oh, Megan, sorry, I didn't mean you..."

"It doesn't matter, we don't care. Special family backgrounds gave us special powers, and we are happy for that."

Ms. Edwards replied, and Vigo herself knew that her news came from Xia De. Xia De must have had full confidence to rush over in the middle of the night, which meant that the child must exist:

"I don't know where my sister is now, and whether she knows about Mother's corpse or Mother's whereabouts."

She expressed her gratitude to Adele, Megan, and Bella with red eyes, then looked at the two coffins, and insisted on burying her parents again by herself.

The three witches could not stop her, so they had to let her do it herself:

"Vigo, keep some tissue from your mother's corpse, and then let Flora and Bella find a way together to find the location of her real corpse. Although Flora is particularly proficient in transformation, don't forget that she is the Great Witch of Death."

Vigo agreed, and then cried and apologized to her parents beside the coffin. Her originally pale face became even uglier.

This scene, which made people sad to see, even made Adele feel compassion. She thought about whether she should avoid it so that Xia De could appear to comfort Vigo.

However, Vigo quickly forced herself to stop crying, but she was not pretending to be strong, but looked at her three colleagues with red eyes and said:

"I feel like there is something at the bottom of Mother's coffin, not inside, but at the bottom of the outside."

Adele looked at Bella and Megan, and they didn't feel anything.

But since Vigo said so, Megan raised her hand to let the coffin fly up, and everyone looked at the bottom of the coffin together, and really saw a black symbol the size of a palm.

The symbol looked like a scar after the wood rotted, but if you look closely, it is clearly the mark of a "triangle wrapping a vertical pupil." This is the symbol of the ring possessed by the defector of the 【Truth Society】 shown by Ms. Pawo, which is the symbol on the ring left by Vigo's mother.

Even Xia De the cat in the distance did not sense that there was this at the bottom of the coffin before observing it. It seems that this is a mark that only Vigo can sense.

Because of the previous experience, Vigo guessed the meaning of this symbol after seeing it.

She did not bring her mother's ring, but it was not particularly far from the Fragrant Mansion. After asking about the specific location of the ring, Megan went back once and brought the ring over not long after. ===== CHAPTER 3986 =====
