Chapter 800: Harvest
【Outsider, you have stepped into the "Soul Graveyard".】
After the familiar prompt, the surroundings were still thick white fog, and dense tombstones stood in the fog. At his feet were square tombstones slanted into the ground, standing cross tombstones, and wooden board tombstones that were almost rotting.
These tombstones were of different sizes and shapes, and the only common point was that there was no text on them.
"This is truly interesting."
Xia De squatted down and touched the square tombstone with a rough surface in front of him. "She" felt the information and told Xia De the result.
Xia De said to Luweiya:
"Engraving the names of the dead on these blank tombstones can summon their souls. No matter what the cause of death is, even if the soul is shattered, it doesn't matter, but shattered souls can only find residues. Here, it connects to the calm waters behind the Gate of Death and can summon spirits ignoring any conditions."
"Do you only need to engrave the name?"
Luweiya asked curiously.
"Besides the name, recognized title, nickname, alias, you also need the year of birth and death and a relatively specific cause of death. Oh, and you must have had contact. Simple contact is fine, just looking at it counts. But it cannot be a character seen in the newspaper..."
Xia De paused:
"And you cannot summon souls from outside the Sixth Era."
"What can you do after summoning spirits?"
"You can do anything. Shatter the soul, ask questions, or even bring it back to the real world, but bringing it back to the real world requires a price, which is fair. This is the graveyard of souls, the resting place of souls. The living who come here are the temporary masters of the souls. Compared to the Time Corridor and the Space Maze, the function here is also not small. If Joey Barton could enter here, he wouldn't have been defeated by me in the end..."
Xia De's fingers touched the tombstone, frowning slightly, as if thinking of an important matter (Note):
"Besides this, you can bring shattered souls here, and the graveyard will repair those souls. If you bring materialized undead here, you can make them produce some... wonderful changes."
Luweiya looked around, very interested in this place:
"Ring sorcerers who manipulate undead would probably be excited to the point of madness here, but unfortunately, I only specialize in divination."
Xia De asked Luweiya softly in his heart:
"What is the extra information?"
【Sacrifice a drop of divinity, or sacrifice a "Heart of the Living Dead", to safely open the gate to true death. That is a one-time two-way door.】
Although Xia De possesses the strange art "Gate of Death", the extra function of 【Soul Graveyard】 is still very useful, or rather, particularly useful. Even if Xia De currently doesn't know what this can be used for.
"However, what is the Heart of the Living Dead?"
Searching for information in the two witch remnants in his head, and then seeking help from the racial knowledge of elves and vampire species, but there was no answer.
Asking Luweiya softly, the female diviner thought for a while:
"I seem to have heard of it in the elective course "Time and Fate: Impermanent Death" at the Academy. I'll go back and flip through the book and tell you."
But whether he knows what this is doesn't matter at all. Xia De never wants to step into that shallow beach and water area again in his life. He is completely fed up with this autumn's Midhillburg death journey.
At noon, he took the cat and had a leisurely lunch with the purple-eyed girl. Luweiya originally wanted to stay at No. 6 St. Deran Square tonight to carefully check Xia De's physical condition after the Midhillburg battle and test his physical fitness level. But Difa said when she left this morning that Xia De would spend the night at Miss Jia Lin Na's manor tonight to inform the witch about Wednesday's events and then wait for new news from Midhillburg, so Xia De could only regretfully refuse Luweiya.
Seeing his regretful look, Luweiya kissed his cheek in the carriage:
"There will be plenty of time in the future, my knight. Saturday is the time for Dorothy to teach you, how about Sunday night? I'll bring red wine, and you prepare a candlelight dinner in advance."
The carriage stopped at the entrance of the Divination Society, and she said goodbye to Xia De with a smile.
"Wait, a gift for you."
But Xia De called the purple-eyed girl again:
"Soul Tear."
He handed the spoils he got at the Blind House to Luweiya:
"Your special divination puts a great burden on the soul. When Priest Ao Gu Si returns, please ask him to make this into a potion that can repair the soul."
Luweiya looked at Xia De in surprise, but did not refuse.
"Also, on Wednesday night, you actually guessed how to open the door at once, which is really amazing. Difa told me that you seemed to have prepared everything in advance."
Xia De praised again.
"I am an excellent diviner."
Luweiya pointed to herself, and only got off the carriage after kissing Xia De's cheek.
Xia De waved to her in the carriage window, watching her enter the Divination Society.
【Then, which soul is it to heal?】
"Her other self is severely damaged, and it was you who told me the news."
Xia De responded softly in his heart, thinking of the illusion that he was kissing two people at the same time when kissing Luweiya:
"Everyone has their own secrets, but Luweiya, you are really worrying."
Miss Jia Lin Na's carriage probably didn't come to pick up Xia De until after three o'clock in the afternoon. Before that, Xia De returned home and took stock of the harvest of this adventure.
Promotion from Third-Ring to Fourth-Ring is the biggest harvest. Although this means the gradual retreat of the state of divine radiance, it is fine as long as he finds the next drop of divinity.
Besides this, the task of the 3024 key of the Fifth Era was completely completed, and he gained more uses of the Moonlight Greatsword, temporarily lost 【Moon Shadow's Illusion】, and exchanged it for 【Power of the Red Dragon】. And before saying goodbye to that gray-robed sage, the god's story provided the spell 【Library Retrieval】. The blasphemy - 【Red Moon】 obtained by absorbing the divinity of the God of Blood was temporarily sealed, but it was exchanged for the extremely useful spell 【Incarnation of Red Butterfly】 and 【Red Butterfly Illusion】.
"Of course, the most important thing is this."
Xia De carefully restored Miss Olandon's black cloak from a toy to a real object. Even though it was brought back to the modern era through the toy state, this cloak, which was still brand new, had now become an old object.
This is a new souvenir, just like the "Feilianna Notes" from the Forest of Thousand Trees, the "Future Person Card" from Terror Castle, and the "Black and White Hair Ribbon" from Night Manor, it is a souvenir after the end of a journey. Xia De pushed the extra clothes hanger in his house into the basement and carefully hung the cloak on the hanger, storing it in the hidden space in the basement.
Grace and Helen's hair ribbons were on the hanger, Feilianna Notes and the card 【Future Person】 were placed under the hanger, and next to them was 【God's Gift Box】. In the future, there will probably be more collectibles here, allowing Xia De to miss the journeys of those past times in his leisure time:
"We will meet again."
This cloak is Miss Olandon's personal item. The dense needlework embroidered elf text runes on it, allowing the cloak itself to have the characteristics of maintaining body temperature and not being easily soiled. Although its value is not as good as Feilianna Notes, it is equally important to Xia De.
【I thought you would put your nose on it and sniff the perfume from the previous era.】
When Xia De thanked 【God's Gift Box】 softly, "She" teased with a smile.
"How could I do such a thing?"
For the sake of his reputation, Xia De immediately retorted, but thought for a while and asked:
"However, traveling through thousands of years of time, the cloak itself has experienced the washing of time, will there still be a scent on it?"
"She" just chuckled and didn't answer.
Of course, besides the cloak with great commemorative value, this adventure also had other important harvests. 【Origin·Death】 goes without saying, and the Night Watcher-level relic 【Higgs Dragon Head Stone】, although it can only cause damage to enemies with "Dragon" and "Huge" attributes, this relic is really useful in suitable application scenarios.
It can be contained by burying it in salt, so Xia De put it in the bowl containing salt and also put it into the basement.
That silly cat was very interested in white things, dipped its paw in it, and then before Xia De noticed, stuck out its tongue to lick its paw... Cats shouldn't eat too much salt, Xia De was very worried about Little Mia's health, so he grabbed this cat and forcibly fed it several drops of water treated with 【Satiety Food】.
【Red Butterfly Pendant】 of course also counts as a relic, and it is a very powerful relic. This is a key item prepared for Lei Qianya and Dorothy to deal with their problems. Xia De plans to mention it to Dorothy when meeting at the doctor's tomorrow afternoon, and by the way, talk to her about Joey Barton's story.
"Vampire Species Ring... Where did this come from?"
He forcibly snatched the blood-colored metal ring from Mia's tail. This ring can be cast by someone other than the wearer to transform any other race into a vampire species, but the wearer will therefore be infected with a terrible blood-thirst disease. Even if the cat can't speak and can't become a "vampire cat," Xia De still thinks this thing is particularly dangerous for Mia.
Especially, the characteristics of 【Ring of Incarnation】, 【Ring of Fish Training】, and 【Ring of Vampire Species】 seem to be able to form a clear chain.
But the most difficult harvest to deal with is actually the blood brew brewed from a quarter of Joey Barton's soul. Xia De originally hoped to use this to exchange for the Red Butterfly Twins from that God of Blood, but didn't expect that the god didn't look down on this wine at all and evaluated it as "garbage".
So, this blood brew was forced to stay in Xia De's hands. It undoubtedly has power, but Xia De hates improving power by "eating people", so he won't drink it himself, and doesn't intend to sell it to others.
Barton's quarter soul will stay in his basement forever. Many, many years later, when Xia De's life comes to an end, or he successfully ascends to the throne of God, he will go to find Marilyn Handel and Joey Barton, comment on what they did after returning to the world, and consider whether to return the soul to the other party.
"I am indeed a good person."
Xia De was very satisfied with this.
The lost 【Night Watcher】 is now in Yin Luna's hands, and I believe I can find a way to get it back soon. Although the 【Soul Fishing Rod】 unfortunately "sacrificed", its sacrifice is valuable. Xia De will miss it forever, and then hurry to find the next relic that may usurp divinity.
Xia De did not forget the help of 【Innocent Creator】. He hopes that he can witness the awakening of the departing Old God in his lifetime and thank the other party for their kindness in person.
"Although chasing the Chosen is dangerous, the harvest is really great."
The high-purity No. 2 holy water obtained from the Interstice Church was locked in the drawer of the study as strategic material, and the relics taken away before leaving home were also classified and re-contained.
And while organizing the items on his body, Xia De found a roll of somewhat unfamiliar parchment. After thinking for a while, he remembered that this was the reward given to him by Mr. Lacon Mathis, a Twelfth-Ring Ringed Ringed Shushi of the Sun Church in the Midhillburg parish, for helping to guard the church before he swung his sword to split the Gate of Death (Chapter 782).
"I remember this is the strange art - 【Xidun Seal】."
He opened the parchment while sitting on the sofa. Little Mia, who was still a bit angry because she was forcibly fed "medicine" by Xia De, immediately slipped over and stretched her head, and then the 【Ring of Vampire Species】 on her tail was removed by Xia De again, which made the cat even angrier. But soon, she got the 【Ring of Incarnation】 again, so she forgot her anger at Xia De and meowed while lying on his lap.
"Don't always wear the same relic ring, you will be affected by the relic, but you can change it. I really don't know why you like such tail decorations instead of the small bell on your neck... Remember to remind me when I see Sister Daifulin next week to ask where this ring came from."
Xia De talked to himself in the air.
