Chapter 4245

~10 min read 1,958 words

Xia De says something about his recent experiences at the group study meeting every week, so Priest Ao Gu Si has long known about the 【Son of God Alliance】. As a member of the clergy and a devout believer, the priest is of course even more hateful of this kind of blasphemous behavior.

At this time, after hearing his new discovery from Xia De, without Xia De asking for help, the priest nodded immediately:

"No problem, regardless of whether the so-called angel remains exist, I will help you with this matter. When exactly are we taking action?"

"Tentatively tomorrow, which is Sunday daytime. Luo Lu Weiya is still looking for their stronghold through divination; she said there will be results tonight."

The priest then took a bone whistle out of his pocket and handed it to Xia De. This is a brand-new alchemical prop he made after gradually mastering the power of angels:

"I will find a way to reach Arcadia City first tomorrow by myself. After you blow the whistle around that city, I or my power will reach your side within three seconds. Of course, if you change the action time, remember to notify me in advance."

Xia De was very happy to receive the whistle, but still reminded:

"Priest, you haven't seen the 'Abomination,' so you might not be able to understand how terrifying it is through my description. Be careful when the time comes, and don't face it directly if it's not necessary."

The priest nodded:

"In the memory of angels, blasphemers have also appeared. Although the methods are not the same, for the kind of golden power you mentioned, I can vaguely find some memories.

The name 'Abomination' is really very precise. It seems you have really understood the essence of that power. It is the opposite of divinity, the opposite of the great ones who shoulder the responsibility of maintaining the world and represent the order and rules of the world. That power that hates everything is something that should not have existed.

Even in the ancient mythological era, such power was taboo, and no form of record would dare to retain data about such 'Abomination' life forms."

This should be a memory the priest found recently; the priest had never mentioned these contents before.

"Then Priest, how did people in the mythological era fight against 'Abomination'? By calling on the gods?"

"No, no, detective."

The old priest laughed:

"Although in that era, gods came to the material world more frequently than now, it was not a very important matter, and mortals would not easily call on gods. Most 'Abominations' do not need gods to take action personally. When the demigod chosen ones of the gods hold divine artifacts, they can fight against this kind of power."

Xia De nodded:

"Alright, whether it's demigods, chosen ones, or divine artifacts, we can't find them now... There are still a few divine artifacts. But fortunately, the 'Abomination' has not yet been fully born, which is also an advantage for us."

The priest nodded:

"Yes, the supreme power of the sun is the nemesis of this kind of existence. Taking advantage of the fact that it has not yet been born, sealing or even destroying it is the most correct choice."

After the carriage sent the priest to Dawn Square, it sent Xia De back home. Luo Lu Weiya had already gone to Bella's place, and their divination would have results tonight. Dorothy was waiting at home to go to Vigo's place with Xia De.

However, Xia De didn't set off with Dorothy immediately:

"Dorothy, please go to Fragrant Mansion first, I want to meet with Sister Sister Daifulin. Winnie, we might come back very late tonight. If Danister comes, you entertain her first."

He also instructed the maid in the house, and the girls all nodded to show they understood.

In the past, when he didn't eat dinner at home like this, Xia De would generally take Little Mia out together. But now he still needs Little Mia to soothe the unborn life in the dragon egg, so he can only wrong Little Mia and let her stay at home.

Xia De also comforted the cat before leaving, but Little Mia obviously didn't think there was anything bad about being left at home. After all, Xia De would come back sooner or later.

So after sending Dorothy to the Blue Ink Library, Xia De also set off for Mideerburg. When he came to the sacrificial ground on the top of the mountain, the sky had already been dyed into a pleasant golden yellow by the sunset.

Sister Sister Daifulin was not in the sacrificial ground at this time. The blind sisters pointed the way for Xia De, so Xia De walked down along the stone steps, passed through the stone gate, and saw Sister Sister Daifulin in the sisters' cemetery.

She was standing in front of her teacher's grave at this moment, bowing her head slightly. A strand of broken hair caught by the eye mask kept stroking her side face with the wind on the top of the mountain. This scene was like a dynamic oil painting.

Xia De didn't disturb her as usual, stood quietly behind the nun and waited for a while, before the nun raised her head and ended the prayer.

"Death, it's a bit uneasy recently."

Sister Sister Daifulin said softly, without turning her head to look at Xia De. Both of them were standing with their backs to the sunset at this time. Xia De stood diagonally behind the nun and could see her back and hair being illuminated by the sunset into a piece of golden yellow.

"The concept of life in the material world has a problem. More people who should have died have therefore gained a chance to breathe."

"Sister, you mean, the problem caused by this Chosen One war has instead brought benefits to some people?"

"Yes. This is their fate, but more life is also invading the death that was already calm. During this period of time, I often enter the Underworld Beach to soothe the undulating waves. The concept of death is being affected by excessive life. The matter in the Arcadia region needs to be solved as soon as possible."

Xia De nodded:

"I understand."

He came here this time to invite Sister Sister Daifulin to participate in the operation against the 【Son of God Alliance】. The nun naturally wouldn't refuse. After learning that the action time was tomorrow, she promised to arrive at Fragrant Mansion tomorrow noon.

"The unborn 'Abomination' is not yet a true life; without birth, there is no death."

She wanted to tell Xia De that the power of death might not be effective on the "Abomination" in its current state. Xia De didn't think this was a problem:

"It doesn't matter. Sister, inviting you to participate in the operation is actually to prevent the 'Abomination' from being born forcibly under extreme circumstances. It's just that I don't know if the initial fire in the current state can burn this level of things."

Although the "Abomination" does not possess the power of gods, the appearance of such dangerous things is related to the power of gods after all, so Xia De's attitude toward it is very cautious.

The nun couldn't answer this question either, but since they talked about the initial fire, the nun said again:

"There are two last flames of the initial fire left that have not been recovered. One has no response, and the other should be found soon."

Xia De nodded. He actually thought in his heart that if he encountered other fire-bearing nuns of the Fifth Era again later, he could ask them for more ways to sense the flames of the initial fire, but he couldn't say this now:

"Luo Lu Weiya and Bella's levels will get higher and higher. When the time comes, they can use the 【Fate Pedestal】 to try divination. The world is heading toward destruction, and the completeness of the initial fire is also a destined thing.

Now we need to consider under what circumstances the initial fire will become complete. Is the completeness of the initial fire some kind of signal, or... a turning point."

Sister Sister Daifulin didn't say anything. Xia De took a step forward to the nun's side and looked at the grave in front of them together.

"Will you always be by my side? Hero who bears the fire."

It seems someone is asking like this.

"Yes, this is a promise."

The Outsider promised under the sunset.

In the following days, it has been circulating in the sacrificial ground on the top of the mountain that someone saw the two people below the mountain hugging each other on this evening. However, this rumor only circulated quietly among the young nuns wearing blindfolds. The mature nuns wearing imitation eye masks didn't talk about it, but everyone knew about this matter.

Because he was delayed for some time at the nun's place, when Xia De came to Fragrant Mansion, the sky had already completely darkened. Vigo and Flora had changed into evening gowns and were preparing to set off. The witches also turned around twice in front of Xia De, and Xia De also praised their makeup tonight as quite beautiful.

Tonight's welcome banquet would last until about ten o'clock to end. Xia De and Dorothy planned to wait for them to come back before going home.

Looking at the carriage driving toward the city illuminated by gas lamps under the gentle slope at the door, Dorothy asked Xia De:

"Do you have other plans tonight, or continue our course?"

"Of course, continue the course."

Xia De answered, and then looked up at the sky again:

"Dark clouds are drifting over, I'm afraid it will rain tonight."

Since the end of the Fate War, most of the Saturday night classes or dates have been conducted by Dorothy and Lei Lei Qianya together with Xia De. It's just that now Dorothy and Lei Lei Qianya are temporarily forbidden to contact or even approach each other, so the night class has returned to being conducted by Dorothy alone.

Vigo lent her study. When sitting down in the study, Dorothy asked Xia De again:

"Dorothy and Lei Lei Qianya, shouldn't we be unable to see each other forever in the future, right?"

"Of course not, it should be fine after this period of time. Even if it cannot recover naturally, I will find some flesh-and-blood research experts to help you solve the problem."

Dorothy tilted her head and smiled:

"Then who is this expert? Vigo's mother, that female alchemist?"

Xia De didn't deny it:

"This is also a plan. That Ms. Peggy Lemei might have problems with her moral values in some aspects, but at least her academic level is worth affirming."

Besides that Ms. Lemei, Megan and Audrey's ancestor Laplace Howard was also in Xia De's consideration. Although the other party was dead, it wasn't the first time Xia De sought help from the dead. As for how to persuade the other party to help himself, Xia De was quite confident in his eloquence.

Dorothy continued to carry out today's night class according to the original teaching plan. Last week, she and Lei Lei Qianya were on a cruise ship on the Teral River, playing the bean-splitting game with Xia De from the perspective of robbers, letting Xia De experience greed.

This week's plan is to let Xia De think about how to formulate fair game rules and how to seize opportunities to seek a way out when facing a desperate situation from the perspective of that traveler, that is, the owl in the animal perspective.
