Chapter 2517 Blessings of the Gods
As the three of them looked around the place, Shade did not forget to tell Miss Feliana and Fiona about the information about this place that the Tree Father had given him:
"In the hall, we will see the holy emblems of all the gods we have come into contact with. By touching these holy emblems, we can obtain different short-term blessing effects. Of course, the depth of the relationship with these gods will affect the strength of the blessing."
Therefore, the number and types of holy emblems seen by Shad, Miss Feliana, and Fiona were different.
This makes this place more like an "exhibition hall" or "showroom" than a "hall". And for an experienced outsider, he certainly saw quite a lot of holy emblems.
All the evil gods that have been encountered in the world - [Vampire Duke Laoel], [Lord of the Blood Feast], [God of the Drowned in the Deep Sea], [Lord of the Scarlet Spiral], [Raging Storm], [Stone Heart Demon], [Dragon Devourer] are all on the list;
The holy emblems of all the old gods encountered in the Fifth Age - [Pure Creator], [Gate of Radiance], [Noisy Black Hunter/God of Gambling], [Grey Robe Sage], [Uncertain Wise Man], [Winter Girl], [Thousand-Eyed Illusion Butterfly], [Curtain of Eternal Night], [God of Journey], [Lord of Gold], [Giver of Dreams], and [Lady of Mist] are also displayed one by one.
In addition to this, for some reason, the holy emblems of the old god [The Forgotten Old Man] that Sirius believed in, the old god [Twin Gods] who had helped Helen and Grace, and the old god [God of Love/Red Heart Lock] who was hostile to "Desire" also appeared here.
Although the patterns and light effects of these holy emblems are different, their sizes are roughly the same. The only holy emblem that is larger than these holy emblems observed by Shade is the golden sun-patterned holy emblem of the righteous god [The Lantern Old Man].
The holy emblem of the righteous gods shone brightly, but only this one's holy emblem appeared among the five righteous gods. Shad guessed that this was because this [God of the Sun and the Earth] was in the Randall River Valley and attended the banquet in the dense forest with him.
In this way, a total of 23 holy emblems appeared.
What made Xia De very regretful was that he could not see the holy emblem of any ancient god among them. He did not know whether it was because the holy emblems of the ancient gods would not appear here, or because he had not actually come into contact with these gods. Xia De tended to believe the former.
"But it is true that darkness contains the shadows of human nature, and light contains the power of God."
Miss Feliana and Fiona both tried to touch the holy emblems that only they could see. Shade counted the number of holy emblems he could see, and then decided to try what kind of blessings this place could bring him.
Of course, the first god he chose was the one he was most familiar with. When Shade's hand touched the holy emblem of the vampire god floating on the octagonal white stone base, "she" said gently:
[Outlander, do you want to accept the blessing of the old god - the vampire Duke Laoel? ]
[Blood Blessing Effect: Transfiguration - High-level Vampire. ]
【Blessing validity period: 24 hours.】
"Just now I said that I can only accept one blessing at a time. So can I change blessings at any time, or do I have to wait until the validity period of the previous blessing ends before I can change to the next one?"
【Can be replaced at any time. 】
Shade nodded. In his opinion, the effect of "Blood Blessing" was very powerful. He had seen how powerful the so-called "higher vampires" were compared to humans from Mr. Bernhardt and Mr. Albert.
He believed that the blessing was so effective because he was so closely connected to the evil god.
"Don't rush to trigger the blessing effect. This is really interesting. Try something else. This is the old god I met in the Thousand Trees Forest - [Glowing Gate]."
The holy emblem itself is a "door" pattern. This god was the first to tell outsiders that "the Sixth Age is not the real Sixth Age". This mysterious old god also possesses the power of time and space.
“She” gently reminded:
[Outsider, do you want to accept the blessing of the old god - Yaobianmen? ]
[Blessing of the Gate Effect: Enhances the effect of the spell "Key of the Gate".]
【Blessing validity period: 24 hours.】
"Just an enhancement spell? It seems that my relationship with this old god is not very deep. That's right, it's just a one-time encounter. But, is it also 24 hours?"
He continued to pace, and this time he chose the god he first came into contact with in this world:
"【Creator of Innocence】."
[Stranger, do you want to accept the blessing of the old god - the innocent creator? ]
[Gift blessing effect: Thaumaturgy - [Toy Making] can be used on living things, but if the requirements are not met, toys with souls cannot be brought into the special space.]
【Blessing validity period: 24 hours.】
"This"
Shade had been trying to find a way to break through the limitations of his magic so that it could work on living creatures without having to trust him wholeheartedly. Now, with just this blessing, his magic had undergone a qualitative change.
The problem is that while this enhances his fancy fighting skills, it still doesn't allow him to take the girls to a past era.
"But that god was really good to me."
Then continue to try, the blessings of the 22 old gods have different effects, and the duration is 24 hours.
Most of these blessings enhanced certain abilities or enhanced certain thaumaturgical spells, but a few were so strange that Shade thought he would probably never need them.
For example, the blessing effect of [Twin Gods] is to enhance the "twin sisters'" favorability towards Shade within 24 hours; and the blessing of [Stone Heart Demon] is that Shade can turn the heart touched by his hands into stone.
But the problem is that if Shade wanted to kill someone, he could just touch the other person's heart with his hands and crush it directly. Turning into stone is really unnecessary.
But since these blessings could be obtained at no cost, all he had to do was enter here, so Shad certainly wouldn't complain.
And although the effects of some blessings do not satisfy him now, if he can make these gods have more favor/dislike for him in the future, the effects of these blessings will be improved.
Xia De saved the blessing from the righteous god [The Lantern Old Man] for last, and it turned out that the blessing from the righteous god was different from that from the old gods:
[Stranger, do you want to accept the blessing of the righteous god - the old man with the lantern? ]
[Blessing of the Sun and the Earth Effect: When holding a lantern and the holy emblem of the god, it will drive away evil.]
[Blessing validity period: one week.]
"So the blessing of the righteous gods is effective for a longer period of time?"
However, he did not have the blessing of the other four gods, so he was not sure whether this guess was correct.
After reading all the blessings, Shade did not choose to accept the blessing of this righteous god, but found the holy emblem of the "Pure Creator" again and received the blessing. The feeling of receiving the blessing was very strange, like warm water pouring down from the top of your head.
Then he asked in his heart:
"As usual, what is the hidden information I obtained in the [Saint White Chapel]?"
[Sacrifice a drop of divinity to gain the chance to touch the ancient sacred emblem. ]
[Sacrifice an old sacred emblem that contains power, and gain the opportunity to touch the ancient sacred emblem related to it. ]
Xia De frowned slightly, and continued to look at the Holy White Hall in the white mist:
"Contains power? It shouldn't mean contains divinity, otherwise it would overlap with the above one. So, it refers to the powerful divine items that are worshipped by believers all year round?"
So far, Shade has not come into contact with many similar holy emblems. Mr. Bernhardt did take out one in Moon Bay, but obviously Shade cannot snatch it.
However, if you pay attention later, you may have a chance to get the holy emblems of other old gods:
"I just wonder if the effective time of those powerful ancient gods' blessings will be extended to a month or even a year?"
Shade wasn't sure how many gods Miss Feliana and Fiona had encountered, but it was clear that in the Fifth Age, the number of old gods was far greater than it is today, so they spent more time checking here.
However, Shad did not ask the two ladies what they gained in this auditorium, and they certainly would not ask Shad this question.
It was only after the three of them returned to the attic from the auditorium that Xia De immediately proposed to try out the new improvements in his magic.
"Turning people into toys?"
Fiona asked curiously:
"Teacher Feliana is a demigod. You probably can't influence her. So let me try!"
The big-tailed dragon girl was very enthusiastic about this and even helped Xia De move the spare curtain fabrics from home.
And when Xia De covered her with the curtain, Xia De frowned at the first moment.
"Why, not enough spirit?"
Miss Felina asked, getting Fiona out from under the huge curtain:
"Fiona is at level 13 after all, and her dragon bloodline makes her extremely resistant to Transfiguration. Why don't we try to catch a few wild cats? When we went outside yesterday, I saw quite a few stray cats in the city."
But in the end, the stray cats in the city did not become Shad's experimental subjects. This was not because Shad was worried that bringing stray cats into the house would anger Mia, but because Iluna appeared at the door of No. 6 St. Teresa's Square that morning.
"Good morning, Shade, I'm back! Good morning, Miss Feliana, Miss Drago!"
Iluna also left Moon Bay on Saturday morning to return home, but the chosen one of balance did not need to take the train, but took a steam floating airship. In addition, the weather in the entire western part of the Old Continent had been unusually good recently, so she returned to the capital of the North Country in just one day.
Iluna wanted to come over to tell Shade that she was back. She seemed a little reserved when she saw the two witches from the Fifth Epoch in Shade's house. Of course, she was mainly reserved in front of Miss Feliana.
After all, before she went to seek revenge on the "Silver Eyed One" and performed the Chosen One Ceremony last summer, she had personally admitted to Shade that she admired this lady. And now, Miss Felena was right in front of her.
