Chapter 4141

In addition to the knowledge and power harvested in the factory, this operation against the 【Skin Item Hall】 naturally also yielded a lot.

Although the 【Vanity】 spirit rune obtained when defeating the master of the hall belongs to the "Whisper" category of the four elements like the previously obtained 【Life】, the appearance of a new Great Sin spirit rune will undoubtedly make the 【Great Sin Chain】 stronger. This is the strongest control-type ability Xia De currently possesses.

As for the sorcery 【Vessel's Humility】, which can hide the intensity of an item's elements after wrapping it with leather material, Xia De also tried its effect this afternoon.

Miss Rolin found a whole piece of sheepskin for Xia De. After Xia De wrapped the 【Night Watcher】 and the scabbard 【Edgeless Blade】 with it, Luviya and Dorothy felt it one by one:

"The Whisper elements have not completely disappeared, but with such a low element content, it is impossible for anyone to directly see through that what you are holding is the 【Night Watcher】 without knowing in advance what the sheepskin is wrapping."

They also thought this sorcery was very useful. It's just a pity that perhaps because of Xia De's disgust for "skin items," the sorcery 【Vessel's Humility】 is ineffective against objects with life, meaning it cannot be used to hide elements by covering a human with a layer of skin. However, Xia De didn't care about this; he really hated "skin items."

As for the fact that the 【Vanity】 spirit rune actually gave Xia De the sorcery of "Humility," the girls also understood. The powers corresponding to Xia De's previous sin-related spirit runes were not the sins themselves.

"Skin items were originally evil items born for the sin of vanity, but in Xia De's hands, skin has become a tool to hide his own strength and nobility. This also shows that Xia De is very noble."

Dorothy summarized it this way, and Xia De was a little embarrassed by the praise. He actually just thought that overly showing off and flaunting himself would make life very tiring.

Besides the power of 【Vanity】, the brand-new unicorn transformation form is of course also very useful. Although the brand-new form was obtained in the Sixth Era, the ability to acquire a new form was still due to the blessing of the evil god 【Lord of Flesh Distortion】.

Before deciding to choose the unicorn, Xia De also thought about how he would use this opportunity. His main body and moonlight dragon form were already strong enough. He originally planned to use this opportunity to choose a different race with strange abilities. Choosing the unicorn in the end did not quite meet Xia De's initial expectations, but at least the unicorn really flies very fast.

Neither Luviya nor Dorothy had ever seen Xia De transform into a unicorn. Since they had time now, they asked Xia De to transform once in the study.

"Of course, fortunately, the unicorn I turn into is not big, so I can show it in the study."

So he got up and walked to the open space in front of Vige's desk. After the moonlight lit up, there was a unicorn in the room that was slightly larger than Ellie's size.

The pure white hair had a soft luster under the sunset outside the window, and the unicorn horn on the top of its head was pure silver, which is different from the vast majority of unicorns.

"It's really beautiful."

Dorothy had been standing beside Xia De. As she said this, she hugged the unicorn's neck and buried her face in the hair, rubbing hard. Luviya also reached out her hand. Just as she was about to express her opinion, the study door was pushed open. Vige, holding a retort, and Bella walked in together, and then they both saw the unicorn being hugged by Dorothy.

"Is that Xia De?"

The Countess of Moon Bay asked curiously, and the unicorn spoke in human language:

"Bella, how did you tell? You haven't seen this form of mine before, have you?"

"It's just an instinctive feeling that it must be you. I think that besides me, the girls who are familiar with you can all feel it. After all, in our eyes, you are unique. If little Liana gives us the feeling of childlike holiness and Ellie gives us the feeling of the purest shadow in our hearts, then the feeling you bring us now is as if the messenger of the ancient Moon Sage has come before us."

Bella said, and together with Vige, she also surrounded him, and then she reminded him:

"If I remember correctly, the number of male individuals in the unicorn population is far less than that of female individuals; unicorns are a truly matriarchal society. So Xia De, if those unicorns discover you, they might invite you to join the population."

Xia De changed back to his own appearance in the light:

"Even if they discover me, it won't matter. Unicorns are very smart; I just need to explain clearly that I am a human."

Everyone still respects unicorns, so they didn't continue to joke about it, and Xia De asked Vige:

"How is your sister?"

The frail witch had worry on her face, but fortunately, that expression was not very obvious:

"The knowledge provided by Miss Feilian is very useful. I have already fused the two separated liquids back together. But according to Bella's and my inspection, this liquid has indeed been slightly contaminated. Although it is not particularly serious, I am afraid it needs to be purified before it can be fused with the other three solutions."

"How to purify it? Does it require a ritual, or does it require the use of specific techniques?"

Luviya also asked with concern, and Vige shook her head:

"It still needs time to study. We don't know enough about this kind of solution and cannot rashly conduct experiments."

"Let me take a look."

Xia De reached out to Vige, and Vige handed the bottle directly to Xia De.

The bottle stopper had already been opened by Vige, but it is best not to let this life solution come into contact with the air, so Xia De just held the bottle and felt it, then asked Vige:

"Do you trust me?"

"Of course I trust you."

"Alright then, let me try."

Vige nodded, and everyone watched as Xia De cast a spell to make the retort float in front of him. Then, his left hand lit up with silver moonlight, and his right hand lit up with red moonlight.

The silver moonlight has the "holy" power of purification, and the red moonlight now also has the power of "flesh and blood nourishment."

The two-colored moonlight approached the retort from left and right, but the liquid in the bottle had no reaction. About five minutes later, Xia De held the bottle again, felt it slightly, and returned it to Vige:

"This kind of purification is effective, but the life in the bottle is too fragile; I dare not give her more moonlight at once. Next, I will purify it once a day, and it should be able to remove all contamination in a week."

Vige let out a long breath and handed the bottle to Miss Rolin, who was standing by. She immediately wanted to kiss Xia De, but she was pulled back by Bella:

"You just came back from outside and went to the underground palace with me. You've been busy all afternoon and haven't changed your clothes or washed up. Don't kiss Xia De now."

Vige nodded immediately and let go of Xia De:

"Yes! Then I'll go change my clothes first, and we'll all eat together in a while. Luviya, Dorothy, Bella, you guys watch Xia De for me, don't let him run away!"

She said this and left the study, and Bella also stood up with a smile:

"The task of watching Xia De will be left to you. I also need to wash up. After dinner, I have to return to Moon Bay. There are still many things there that need me to handle; I'm afraid Matilda alone is not enough."

"You should also pay attention to rest."

"Xia De, you are the least qualified to say that."

She leaned close to Xia De and kissed him lightly before leaving.

After the door was closed, Luviya smiled and said to Xia De:

"Look, Bella didn't let Vige kiss you, but she did it herself. I think Bella also has the same sense of urgency as Xivi in the past."

"I heard someone mention me."

Xivi and the boat girl walked in together, and Dorothy also smiled:

"Luviya is guessing that there will soon be another lady with a title in our home."

Xia De will visit Mr. Bernhardt tomorrow; he probably won't be able to get the information about desire and the fake human today. However, there were still some important gains today that Xia De hadn't checked carefully. There was no rush to check the two Youth-Preserving Leaves, but at the bottom of the park lake, he definitely had to check the scissors that "Desire" gave to Xia De again.

"Artifact!"

During Xia De's coma, the scissors were kept by Vanessa. When she and Siris came to the study, they brought the scissors with them.

The appearance of the scissors was plain and unremarkable, looking like they were forged from an unknown black metal. If it weren't for the quite ancient miracle elements on them, they wouldn't be much different from the scissors used by ordinary people today. There were no emblems or runes carved on the scissors. When everyone took turns checking and playing with them, they all felt that this artifact was truly overly plain.

"The God's Gift Box, the Butterfly-Calling Flute, the Oar—the three artifacts Xia De possesses don't look particularly conspicuous when not in use... Could it be that all artifacts are like this?"

Siris asked curiously. The girls of this era didn't have the opportunity to see many artifacts, but the boat girl from the Fifth Era had seen other artifacts beside Violet:

"Artifacts are usually this plain; at least most artifacts are like this."

"The artifacts Xia De mastered before were left by the Old Gods, so what is the use of this artifact of the Ancient God?"

Xivi asked Xia De again. At this time, the scissors returned to Xia De's hands. He held the thing and opened and closed the blades a few times:

"Holding the Chosen One ceremony requires items related to the Ancient Gods, and these scissors definitely meet the requirements. Besides that, it can make skin items."

The girls all frowned. Xia De also knew that everyone hated the relics called "skin items," so he declared:

"I will not make skin items. Even if I face the most hateful enemy, I will only send the other party to death. You can rest assured about this.

But speaking of which, although I generally understand the story of the birth of the 【Skin Item Hall】, I actually don't know how these scissors ran into the hall. I guess that perhaps when the believers of the Ancient God sealed the master of the hall back then, this was the core of the seal. After that thing ran out of the seal, it took it as its own."
