Chapter 3997: Prayer Room

Gina continued to comfort Miss Bladevi, and Xia De, sitting with his legs hugged, looked at Lady Gustav:

"You come from the 【Creator Church】. Miss Bladevi's origin is fine, but she is also involved with that Ancient God, and the letter she received originally belonged to her sister; the other party is likely a true believer of the Ancient God."

People in this world also despise pan-believers, but if one believes in both an Ancient God and an Old God related to the Ancient God, then there is no problem.

"It seems that this factory has conditions for selecting invitees. But I don't understand why Gina was invited."

Xia De said, and Gina turned around and shook her head immediately:

"I am a shallow believer of the dragon god 【Dragon Wing Emperor】; this great one certainly has nothing to do with that Creator."

This is the second son of the dragon, who can be called the younger brother of the evil god 【Dragon-Devouring Demon】 that Xia De encountered in Moon Bay. It is worth mentioning that the blessing of the fourth son of the dragon is still on Xia De.

But Lady Gustav pointed out:

"Gina is a mutant ruby dragon. Although she is pure-blooded, her lineage has mutated. In the ancient faith related to the God of Creation, it is generally believed that mutations of lineage, especially those positive mutations, are all related to the blessing of the Creator."

Gina blinked:

"Positive mutation?"

She had never thought that her lineage mutation was positive; after all, the "strange" scale color that was different from her peers had made her suffer a lot when she was young.

"In the 【Creator Church】, some witches specialize in the subject of lineage mutation. They generally believe that as long as it does not significantly show defects, the mutation situation can be regarded as positive."

Lady Gustav concluded:

"In this way, except for Mr. Hamilton, who is different from us, the three of us are actually here because we are related to that ancient Creator."

"Your act of igniting the four furnaces is looking more and more like a ritual."

Xia De said, and the old witch nodded with some worry. At this time, even Miss Bladevi, who had red eyes, looked over:

"I have heard many similar stories from my sister, so are the three of us sacrifices?"

She said what Lady Gustav had not said. Gina's face turned white immediately, and the old witch did not express affirmation or denial:

"Only the second furnace has been ignited; don't think so much now. Mr. Hamilton has limited time to stay; let's set off first."

The pink dragon girl's big tail stopped wagging, and she pursed her lips and continued to pack things. But soon she felt Xia De's gaze, and after turning her head, she saw Xia De looking at her.

Xia De did not make any promises, just smiled at her. So the pink ruby dragon, Miss Gina Rosa, blushed immediately. She hurriedly turned her head to avoid letting Xia De see her expression, but her mood was indeed much better.

The witches soon dismantled the shelter and set off again. It was still Lady Gustav in the front, Gina in the back, and Xia De and Miss Bladevi, who was carrying the small bucket and the small shield, in the middle.

At this time, it was no longer Gina who could hear the baby's crying, but Lady Gustav. She led everyone to the door where Xia De came from, opened the door and took a look, and then said with relief:

"No problem, let's go in."

In the brand-new room, there was a rhythmic loud thumping sound. The area of this room was almost as large as the "Blood Collection Workshop". 10 conveyor belts driven by unknown power sources were sending various withered yellow bones of different sizes out from one end of the room, while the metal forging hammers connected to the ceiling constantly struck them before the bones entered the exit at the other end of the room.

The efficiency of such hammering was extremely low, because bone fragments constantly flew off the conveyor belt during this process, so the floor of the room had a thick layer of broken bones.

"This is the Bone Forging Workshop. Like the Blood Collection Workshop, this type of room is very easy to appear in the 【Filthy Blood Factory】."

Miss Bladevi, who was walking with Xia De, whispered. Her eyes were still red. Although everyone did not blame her for lying at the beginning, she still felt a little guilty:

"The danger here is not great. When walking on these broken bones, certain areas will assemble into skeletons similar to undead creatures because they sense the presence of living people nearby, but they are much more powerful than undead. Even flying is useless; no one knows what they are sensing."

Gina asked with some expectation behind Xia De:

"Xia De, can you sense which area has a problem?"

Xia De shook his head:

"I can only sense that all the bones on the ground contain amazing life force. Theoretically speaking, these bones are actually alive."

He remembered that he had not yet shown that power, and considering that he might use it later, he let Lady Gustav not walk inside first:

"Look."

He bent down and pointed his hand at the bone fragments near the door:

"Spell: Life Spark."

Thus, Lady Gustav, who had just said "using the life spark is the authority of God," saw a wisp of flame emerge from Xia De's fingertips. At this moment, the three witches breathed heavily at the same time; they all longed to obtain this.

But fortunately, the tempering in this strange place made their mental power stronger. They soon got rid of this longing from the heart, and Gina said with great awe:

"Is this the 'Life Spark' that everyone was discussing just now?"

"Yes. The life force contained in every piece of bone here is stronger than the life spark of ordinary people I have seen in the normal world. In my opinion, every strike of those forging hammers is tempering the life force."

"These bones that fall off the conveyor belt are actually those with relatively weak life force; the life force contained in the bones on the conveyor belt is the most amazing."

Xia De made a very appropriate analogy:

"It's like the difference between an ant and an elephant. If these bones are also the basic raw materials for manufacturing some kind of life form, I can hardly imagine how powerful the life force of the so-called 'new life' that finally appears will be."

"Let's go. Since all the bones are problematic, we can only be more careful."

Lady Gustav said, without commenting on Xia De's spell. The old witch led everyone, *crunch, crunch*, stepping on the bone fragments, and walked towards the room diagonally opposite the room. These bones seemed to come from various different races, and their physical strength even exceeded the alloy used for casting steam cannon barrels in the Sixth Era that Xia De knew.

The probability of activated skeletons appearing in this room was not very high. They had walked a third of the way when the first one emerged behind Gina's tail.

The powerful tail swept out with a sudden force, but with a *bang*, it struck the skeleton that had seemed not very sturdy; unexpectedly, it was Gina who nearly lost her footing due to the force of the recoil.

"My turn—Binding Halo!"

Three moonlight halos of different colors flew out, binding the skeleton firmly. It did not possess the ability to break free from the restraints, but under the confinement of the halos, it hopped along, still trying to keep up with the group.

Consequently, Gina's large tail swept toward its feet, causing it to tumble into the remains of its own kind, unable to hop up ever again.

As the most common room in the factory, the danger in the Bone-Forging Workshop was not great. But correspondingly, the group had no other gains in this room either. As they approached the door leading to the next chamber, Lady Gustav warned them again:

"I can still hear the crying in four more rooms. If we haven't found the furnace after passing through four rooms, I'm afraid everyone will have to find a way to rest."

"But what on earth is going on? Why are the rooms so hard to find this time?"

Miss Bredewei did not understand. The old witch shook her head, signaling everyone to follow her and continue forward.

Xia De and Gina dealt with the three skeletons that emerged from behind. After Lady Gustav opened the next door, she said in surprise:

"Why is it another rest room? A safe room! This is the prayer room in the factory. Come in quickly. It's only been one dangerous room since the last one, and already a new safe room has appeared; this is also a situation that hasn't happened before."

The four of them quickly entered the room, shutting the *bang-bang-bang* sounds of the forging hammers and those skeletons outside the door.

Xia De and Gina had been fighting in tandem just now. Before closing the door, Gina saw Xia De chew something vigorously and then spit out a grayish-white bubble, letting it float out through the crack in the door.

"Are you using the bubble spell I taught you? Oh, you combined it with a Dragon Roar? How did you manage that?"

"I just cast them together... can't you do that?"

Gina felt a bit embarrassed:

"My control over Dragon Roars isn't that strong. When I tried it before, I blew the windows and Elfina straight into the Academy's garden, and the Black Dragon Maid then used a broom to sweep me out too... Your control is truly strong."

Because true gods exist in this world, even in the Sixth Era, prayer rooms exist in the Great Factory, though they are generally only used by the management.

The brand-new room was the prayer room of this factory. The room was long and narrow, with two doors located at opposite ends of the corridor.

On the wall along one of the long sides of the room, many shrines were embedded at even intervals. Inside the shrines were the holy emblems of different gods, and on both sides of the emblems, golden eternal candles were lit.

"The notebook I found described this kind of room. It is almost absolutely safe here, and one can obtain blessings by praying to the gods. This is the safest and most valuable room in this factory that we have learned about."

Miss Bredewei spoke only after seeing that Xia De and Gina had finished talking. Lady Gustav was still frowning:

"Two rest rooms have appeared almost consecutively. I have a very bad premonition."

"However, the holy emblems here all seem to belong to gods related to 【Creation】."

The room was quite solemn and respectful. Although these holy emblems looked very ordinary and had no strong elemental reactions, Gina still instinctively lowered her voice when she spoke.
