"Mr. Hamilton, you should also treat me, I have to find my way back to the camp in a while. I don't have your ability to face God directly."

Miss Violet extended her hand to Xia De. Xia De nodded and held that white and soft right hand. Silver moon light flickered, and the stable output of spirit acted on reality in the form of four elements. The thirteen-ring Great Witch closed her eyes and let out a long breath:

"As for the sacrifice, I'm afraid you still need to help me. I am very sure that we don't have sacrifices suitable for God."

"But what kind of sacrifice does that god actually need? I don't believe God just asks us for lake water, dew, and tears."

Xia De thought for a while:

"Let me think... are there any special liquids that can increase wisdom after drinking?"

"Of course there are."

It was Miss Theresa who gave the answer:

"Before the exam week every year, some people in the academy will sell similar things, but I think those contraband drugs shouldn't be the answer."

"Yes, yes, 'Wisdom Potion', 'Smart Potion', these are fake, not one's own wisdom."

Xia De nodded immediately. He had heard Dr. Doctor Doctor Shi Nai De mention similar potions during the exam week.

"Besides potions, there is a special liquid called 'Water of Wisdom', which is a very rare alchemy raw material."

Miss Theresa said again.

"Then where can this liquid be found?"

"Where the Lake God appears, the surrounding living water will spontaneously transform toward 'Water of Wisdom'. And the closer to God, the stronger the supernatural effect of the water."

Miss Violet gave the answer. Xia De looked back at the tower. It is very common for special materials to appear at the location of God's descent, but it is a pity that he cannot bring special materials back to his own time:

"Then it must not be this either. Where is the reason to offer the water under God's feet as a sacrifice?"

"Yes, the sage's test should need wisdom to answer. The sacrifice God needs must be very rare, but God will not give tests that cannot be completed."

Miss Violet looked around:

"Mr. Hamilton, I think you can find the answer in the place you are going to return to, and we should also be able to find the answer here."

"Maybe this is related to the Ancient God?"

Xia De put forward his own view. Witch Emperor raised her eyebrows:

"You actually know the Ancient God?"

"Yes, the Great One in the tower is related to the Ancient God of Wisdom and Knowledge. As early as in the more ancient years, the thirteen ancient gods had already left us, but the material world still retains items containing their power. Maybe I should look for 'water' containing the power of the Ancient God."

"It sounds like this is indeed possible to be the answer."

Miss Violet said, then saw the white fog had wrapped around Xia De:

"You are leaving again."

Xia De looked down:

"There is still half a minute, let's continue talking. You pay attention to safety by the lake. Although you should be able to find the answer to the trial in the Lost Lake area, you don't have to take too much risk. My action there is much safer than yours here."

"Since being promoted to the thirteenth level, I haven't heard anyone tell me to pay attention to safety for a long time."

Miss Violet smiled, then reminded:

"Since you are from... then remember to use the data from your side to check whether the Great One's sect has offered other sacrifices."

"Yes, I will check the data."

Xia De's field of vision was almost completely shrouded in white fog, and the witch's voice became abnormally blurry:

"I don't know when I can come next time, Miss Violet, Miss Theresa, pay attention to safety, see you next time!"

"Remember to bring your cat next time, although I can't get it, but seeing it again can..."

The thick white fog disappeared between the two witches, and Xia De's hand on them also disappeared. Xia De didn't hear the second half of the sentence, but had already nodded in agreement.

Miss Theresa sighed softly with a sense of loss, and then reached out to cover her forehead.

"Your face is very red."

Miss Violet reminded, then looked at her right hand, and then tried to grasp a few times:

"Really interesting."

"Blushing is a very normal thing."

Miss Theresa immediately retorted, but Witch Emperor sneered:

"I didn't say you were interesting, what are you in a hurry for?"

She looked at the position where Xia De left with deep eyes:

"Just now being held by him, I felt... a very special feeling."

"You fancy him?"

Miss Theresa asked cautiously. Miss Violet hummed again:

"Schultz, you really don't understand anything, this is why you haven't been able to graduate smoothly until now."

"I..."

"If you evaluate a person just by appearance, then you can at most become someone like me."

Miss Theresa pursed her mouth:

"Aunt, what do you want to say?"

"Holding his hand, I felt some kind of strange... echo? It's as if after hitting a big bell, then sticking your hand on the surface of the big bell."

Miss Violet looked at her palm:

"But that is an incomplete echo, it should be called reverberation. He possesses strange power, reflecting the past, analyzing history, traveling through time... the outsider who witnesses the story, it's really interesting. Next time should be the last time he comes here."

Without waiting for Miss Theresa to ask, she answered:

"I know this because he asked God if he could tell us the third trial. It's a pity that he couldn't be kept forever. But this is also good, a man like him is not suitable to appear in our era."

Miss Theresa stood on the side and didn't know what to say. Although she had long guessed that the strange man would leave forever sooner or later, when she really knew this, there were still some unspeakable emotions in her heart.

"Speaking of which, Theresa, like you, he pursues far more than the power of the thirteen rings, can't you even see this?"

Witch Emperor drew 【Watcher】, preparing to return to the lakeside camp.

"I..."

Miss Theresa lowered her head slightly, fearing that her thoughts would be seen.

"Both I and that cat have supreme beauty, you have enough ambition. Schultz, but sometimes you still lack some knowledge and wisdom. This is the difference between you and that man. He has seen many things, and you haven't."

Witch Emperor looked at her distant niece:

"But you are still young, and there is still a chance, this is the luckiest thing about you. Fate actually let us encounter this kind of thing, which shows that fate has arranged more things for you in the future."

She held 【Watcher】 tightly, frowned slightly, and saw Xia De and a middle-aged man fighting against a flame demon.

At the current time point, 【Watcher】 has not been placed under Sikar Mountain to suppress the flame demon, so Miss Violet doesn't know what this scene means.

She raised her eyebrows, and praised with a light tone:

"Of course, I also admit that it is a very charming man. The witch who helped him with his thesis is really a lucky guy."

(Priest August is in morning prayer...)

The second return in 5177 of the Fifth Era means that Xia De has a new task. However, he has completed this kind of task of finding some uncertain items many times, so he doesn't think it is particularly tricky.

Especially, this kind of task is theoretically without a completion deadline.

After returning home, it is still Sunday morning. After turning little Mia back, the cat immediately continued to gnaw on the dried sausage, but only took one bite and made a strange sound with its throat. It very disgustedly used its small claws to push the dried sausage aside, and then meowed to urge Xia De to make breakfast.

Any item that does not belong to this era, whether it comes to the present through toys or physical objects, will be worn down by time. The dried sausage can no longer be eaten at all, and the traces of time remind Xia De again of what he is doing. And this dried sausage from the Fifth Era, in his opinion, is not qualified to be compared with the "souvenirs" he got in the past, so it was thrown into the kitchen cabinet by him, waiting to be destroyed when he has time.

"Hmm?"

When he went downstairs to get milk and newspapers, he felt the chill of the winter morning as soon as he opened the door, and then saw a large wooden box placed at the door. Xia De immediately remembered the "wooden box theft method" discussed at Dr. Doctor Doctor Shi Nai De's place yesterday. He shrank back fiercely, exposing Mia who was originally following his feet.

Mia looked back at Xia De, and immediately followed him back into the door, and thought this was very interesting.

"No whisper elements. Speaking of which, how could it be so unlucky to steal to my house?"

Xia De thought in his heart, walked to the door to check the wooden box in "her" laughter:

"Sent by Taylor and Wanda United Mining Company?"

He remembered that when the academy mailed poem manuscript paper to him, the sender was also this company. Afterward, Xia De also investigated, this is a large mining company in the central and southern part of the kingdom, mainly mining gold mines and some rare metal deposits, belonging to a large company that is not famous but quite rich.

First took the newspaper and goat milk, then looked left and right, there was no one in St. Deran Square, before holding the heavy wooden box with both hands and getting it into the hall.

It was probably because the sound of going upstairs was too loud, waking up Dorothy. When Xia De carried the wooden box, with the cat lying on the wooden box in high spirits, and arrived on the second floor, the sleepy blonde girl was stepping on slippers and wearing pajamas, walking out of the bedroom:

"Good morning, Xia De, oh, what is this?"

"Task items sent to me by Miss Danister, remember? That high-score academy commission given to me by the librarian."

Xia De said, but he kept his promise and didn't tell anyone the truth about that commission.

The wooden box was exceptionally heavy, as if it contained metal blocks. And in fact, it was indeed like this. Dorothy went to heat milk and prepare bread. After Xia De pried open the wooden box with a crowbar, he found that there was a standard silver-gray rectangular body at the bottom of the square wooden box, the length of the long side was consistent with the side length of the wooden box, and the top was covered with straw:

"Alchemy item for detecting spiritual light, the volume is so large?"

Xia De was surprised, but immediately realized that the silver-gray rectangular body was just a container.

There was also a letter for Xia De in the straw. There was no text on the letter, and it was illuminated by Xia De's core spiritual rune 【Silver Moon】 to reveal Miss Danister's handwriting.

The letter explained the usage of this alchemy item. Its body is a palm-sized mirror imprisoned in that silver-gray rectangular container. Because this alchemy item was made using the derivative of the Angel-level relic 【Burgundy's Evil Mirror】, which is broken mirror fragments, this alchemy item for collecting spiritual light must be carefully housed.

When Xia De needs to use it, he can take the mirror out of the silver-gray rectangular container, but he must put the mirror back into this silver-gray metal block within 17 hours and keep it in a housed state for more than 11 hours before it can be taken out again. And the usage method of the mirror is also very simple: align the mirror surface with the spiritual rune that needs to collect spiritual light, the distance cannot exceed 15 feet (about 4.6 meters), and keep the action for 30 seconds.

This basically means that it is impossible for Xia De to hide in a corner and secretly collect spiritual light. But fortunately, now that he knows that the "Guide of the Moon" Pulis is suspected to be an academic spy, as long as he finds specific evidence, Xia De has many negotiation options in his hands.
