Chapter 4205: Speculation and Going Out

The two Ms. Victors were adventurers in the traditional sense, having traveled through countless places together in their lives. As for why they came here in their old age, they also didn't remember.

"If we can't think of why we came here, let us die here. That purpose must be very important, yes, it must be very important. Rather than going back with regrets, it is better to stay here forever."

The two old people said this. Having reached the end of their lives, they had clearly made up their minds.

"Then besides us, Ms. Thorne, have you seen anyone else here?"

After chatting with the others, Xia De asked the witch with the eye ailment again, and the latter nodded:

"Yes, some people stayed here for a period of time and then voluntarily asked the god to leave. The god then pointed out the path for them to leave, and the price was that they could never appear here again. Some people insisted on not leaving after coming, and later disappeared into the white fog outside for various reasons, never returning."

"Has no one ever been healed?"

"No, someone did realize their wish. It was a mother and daughter. The mother was a witch, and the daughter was a child she adopted. Although they also forgot their purpose, the congenital heart disease of the young girl was easy to observe.

So the mother took her daughter to meet the god. The latter's illness was cured, and she awakened to become a witch because of bathing in the god's radiance."

Ms. Thorne showed a reminiscent expression:

"Before they left, we cooked a lot of mushrooms together to celebrate the girl's recovery. When they said goodbye to me, they left all their luggage except for their own clothes to me, and wished that I could also recall my purpose sooner.

That was a long, long time ago. At that time, the man over there and these two elderly witches hadn't come yet."

Seeing her say this, Xia De remembered Miss Meiz from the Strange Tree Academy in the "Ash Valley," who also said she had stayed in that strange place for a very, very long time, and it turned out she was simply someone who didn't want to leave the Strange Tree Academy.

Xia De then asked:

"Forgive me for asking, but do you think your memory is real?"

He explained again:

"Is it possible that you are actually the last priest or nun in this temple, and because you don't want this temple to be abandoned, you voluntarily stayed forever, responsible for receiving us visitors?"

"Your idea is bold, but not without reason."

Ms. Thorne said, thought for a moment, and shook her head:

"I have gone through my memories. Although some memories are lost, I am very sure that I am not a member of the clergy, and I don't have much connection with this compassionate lady. The most inexplicable encounter in my life is actually meeting you."

Xia De didn't know how to respond to this, but since Ms. Thorne was a normal person, Xia De followed the normal process:

"You also heard my exchange with the god just now. Can you tell me in detail what you still remember? I will help you find your memories."

But Ms. Thorne shook her head:

"My affairs are more complicated. I suggest you choose a simple task first to understand this place. Since you have made a promise to God, I am not in a hurry about my own affairs."

She pointed to the ordinary man, the young man named Leonard Albert:

"You can start with his affairs. He sometimes talks to himself in his sleep. I heard him say that he left his most important 'luggage' in the mist outside. If you are confident, you can try to find his luggage in the mist outside. I can go with you."

"Do you have a way to resist the forgetting effect outside?"

Ms. Thorne took out a very ordinary kerosene lantern from the luggage behind her:

"The fire here can be taken out with any tool, lanterns or torches. But no matter how much fire is taken out, it can only support for a very short time. We must return before the fire goes out, otherwise we may never be able to return."

She cast a spell to draw a wisp of fire from the bonfire in front of her, and the fire ignited the kerosene lamp:

"How about it, do you want to go out and see?"

Xia De thought for a moment:

"Of course, but are you sure you want to go out with me?"

Ms. Thorne nodded:

"Of course. My perception is weak here because the god's great power suppresses the power of us mortals. Once I go out, I am still a twelfth-tier witch.

You don't have to worry about my purpose. I just thought that since the god is willing to wait for me and provide me with help, I also want to repay this compassionate god. I didn't have a way to thank her before, but now I want to help you complete the task."

Xia De felt again that this mission was really easy:

"I'll prepare a little bit and then we'll set off."

"Okay, I'll also organize the supplies you brought."

There was still plenty of time. Although there were four companions this time, only one could communicate with Xia De seriously, so the time consumed so far was not long.

And Xia De actually didn't need to prepare anything. He just wanted to experience the power of "Sunlight" again.

After leaving the room where the god was, although the traces of "Divine Radiance" temporarily faded, the warm feeling all over his body still existed. Even when Xia De looked at his wrist, the veins that should have been blue under the skin had turned a faint gold at this time.

He believed that if he bit his finger, the blood that seeped out would also be golden.

His body temperature was slightly higher than normal. He could clearly perceive that with every breath he took and every heartbeat, the sunlight was surging in his body with his blood.

Even if he didn't intend to absorb this power from the sunlight, he felt that he was slowly becoming stronger. This was already very rare for the current Outlander, and becoming stronger was only because of a grain of "Sunlight."

"The sun represents 'Supreme'."

Xia De thought in his heart. When he looked at his palm, silver-white thunder jumped, but if he observed carefully, he could see traces of gold. The powers he mastered related to "Thunder" were "Thunder Spear" and "Thunder Wave." Under the blessing of that grain of sunlight, both of these miracles showed the power of the sun.

He didn't intend to let that sunlight become his own power, nor did he intend to fuse it into "Sun Fire." Since this was requested from the god specifically for Wei Ge, the ownership of this sunlight was Wei Ge's.

"However, I had ignored it all along. Besides 'Creation,' life also corresponds to the sun and the earth."

Xia De thought in his heart:

"If the Chosen of the Sun could appear before Creation, would the other party have the ability to contend with the 'First Child'?"

【Do you want to use the sun to evaporate the Origin Sea?】

"She" asked gently.

"If I can do it, I would be happy to do so."

He let the gold and silver thunder light in his hand disappear, and then silver moonlight appeared, but the cold moonlight became warmer and warmer until it was completely transformed into golden sunlight. Sunlight appeared in Xia De's hand. He carefully experienced this power, and even felt that using sunlight was as skillful as using moonlight.

After a moment of preparation, Xia De and Ms. Thorne set off. Ms. Thorne only knew the general direction from which Mr. Albert came, so they could only try their luck in the fog. Once the firelight became weak, they had to return.

When the two left the fire, Ms. Thorne also warned Xia De:

"In the fog, you may encounter strange things from the outside world, you may encounter monsters formed by dissolved memories, but more often, they are hallucinations and auditory hallucinations that appear from your memories. Remember not to be distracted by things you are familiar with. As long as you ignore them, they won't come to you."

Xia De asked:

"I didn't encounter these situations before I came to the temple just now."

"The situation in this swamp is changeable. Maybe you were just lucky just now. Oh, if we are unfortunately separated, remember to return along the direction of the firelight. The fire in the temple is special, you won't recognize it wrong."

Ms. Thorne carried the lantern, while Xia De found a candle in the sundries. After igniting it, he let it float beside him to provide light.

The other three companions didn't react to the departure of Xia De and Ms. Thorne, and after pushing open the door, the two left the temple directly.

It was very quiet in the fog. Although space-type abilities were not prohibited here, perception-type powers were greatly restricted, so Xia De couldn't use "Enhanced Space Perception" to understand the surrounding terrain. However, time and space here were chaotic, so even if he could use miracles, it wouldn't make much sense.

"This way."

Ms. Thorne subconsciously lowered her voice to remind Xia De. The fog itself was glowing. The role of the firelight was not to provide light, but to push away the thick fog.

Xia De followed Ms. Thorne forward for a few steps, and sure enough, he didn't feel his memory having problems again. He originally wanted to continue communicating with Ms. Thorne, but his peripheral vision saw a figure appearing on the left side of the forward direction.

Xia De looked over, and then saw Sparrow Hamilton standing there.

The witch noticed Xia De's slight pause:

"Did you see someone familiar, or hear a voice?"

"I saw my uncle... You didn't see it?"

"That is your memory, how could I see it?"

Ms. Thorne took Xia De and continued to walk forward. Xia De stared at Detective Sparrow, who just smiled. Even when Xia De passed by him, he didn't say anything.

"You and your uncle must have a very good relationship. According to past experience, the people people see here first are the people they are most impressed by."

"Our relationship can only be considered average, but when he passed away, he left all his property to me."

"Then it's not strange. You are really lucky."

Although she was wrapped in a blindfold, Ms. Thorne walked without being affected at all. She had probably explored the fog many times. Although Xia De saw many figures including Luweiya later, and even heard the voices of some acquaintances calling for help, Ms. Thorne behaved as if she couldn't see or hear anything. ===== CHAPTER 4206 =====
