Chapter 2430 The Story of Ptolemy Albert
"The Light Worshipers' Association's plan to turn Moon Bay into light can only be carried out after the Chosen Ceremony is held. And we can control whether the Chosen Ceremony is carried out, Shade, don't worry so much."
Luvia consoled him, and Iluna also said:
"I will bring this information back to the church. Since the lunatics of the Light Worshipers' Seminar need to set up rituals in various places in the city, we have a way to find those rituals and destroy them. Now that everyone's cards have been revealed, it all depends on who has the better strategy."
Without further ado, everyone went their separate ways. Shad was not idle either. After returning home from throwing away the crystal slippers, he went to the Randall River Valley and met the Earth Guardian in the form of "Thomas Granger" under a big tree in the courtyard of the "Forgotten Church".
"Sunday to Tuesday, time is uncertain."
"I see."
The Guardian did not say how he knew what was happening thousands of miles away, but he was in the heart of the earth, so he should have a way:
"From your expression, this matter is very troublesome?"
"It is almost certain that an evil god will appear, and I will most likely not be able to defeat it."
The two stood under the tree and looked out at the silhouette of the church in the midsummer. Now the church was maintained by the girls left behind by Vanessa. Not only was the exterior wall painted with new paint, but also small flower beds were enclosed in the corners with low wooden fences.
No one spoke, and Xia De felt the true summer atmosphere for the first time in a long time. After a long while, the soul aggregate asked:
"Will you sacrifice yourself if necessary?"
"will not."
Xia De answered without thinking, looking at the swing under the tree:
"I'm not alone anymore. There are still many people who care about me. I can't just leave."
The guardian nodded slightly, and changed from Mr. Thomas Granger to Mr. Willon Lathers:
"Yes, Sirius still needs your care. I, an incompetent father, left too early, and I don't want her to be left with only that witch by her side."
Then the two fell into silence again. The Randall River Valley was not deeply affected by the special light because of the influence of the "Heart of the Earth" and the guardians underground. It was the last moment of midsummer, the sun was shining, the birds were singing, and the flowers were fragrant.
If there weren't so many things to do, Xia De would actually like to have a picnic in this courtyard with the girls, or hold Mia under this big tree and take a peaceful nap, but he couldn't do it.
After bidding farewell to the Earth Guardian, Shad wanted to return to Tobesk to inform the doctor. But when he appeared in the signposted trail wrapped in white fog, that is, the "Space Maze", he changed his mind and touched the signpost of the "Night Temple" also located in the Randall River Valley area.
He walked out of the cave below the temple, and then turned into a butterfly and arrived at the Night Temple on the side of the mountain. The ruins of the ancient temple now only had the remains of three arches, and only on the open field at the end of the arches remained the huge ritual array of the sun, moon and stars left behind when Shade "violated" time travel here last time.
Xia De didn't know what he was doing here this time. He stood in the formation and looked at the forest in the Randall River Valley for a long time before he threw away his crystal shoes and left.
Before lunch, he went to the doctor's office and explained the situation in Yuewan. Although time was a bit urgent, the doctor was happy to help:
"Between 11:30 pm and 1:00 am, find an empty crossroads and summon me as I teach you."
Lunch was taken at home with Dorothy, and Miss Writer had packed her suitcase and was to start with Shard early on Saturday morning.
When Shad returned to Moon Bay after lunch, as soon as he entered the manor, he was mysteriously pulled onto the boat by the smiling Luvia.
After emerging from the banquet hall in the cabin, she took Shad to the captain's room on the top floor. Then Shad saw Megan, Miss Aurora and Miss Eliza were all there, and they were watching Miss Belindel who looked unhappy.
Matilda was also here. The blonde maid nodded slightly when she saw Shade, as if nothing had happened last night. As for the countess, a pair of golden dragon wings grew behind her, and as the wings slowly flapped, she was floating in the air:
"You know what? The way you're looking at me right now is a bit like looking at a hamster in a cage."
"The attempt to activate the bloodline was successful?"
Xia De also came forward and asked in surprise, and Megan covered her mouth and laughed:
"It wasn't particularly successful. Bella grew wings and could fly, but her strength increased a bit. Apart from that, she didn't even have a single scale on her body. Miss Swift and I had expected her to grow at least a pair of small horns, but that obviously didn't happen.
It is not known whether there is something wrong with the potion itself, or whether Bella is already an eleventh-level witch and her power has affected her bloodline. But it is a good thing anyway, Bella will be able to fly."
"It's not very fast. It can't be compared with you."
The countess finally landed back on the ground. The wings behind her fluttered twice, and then they turned into golden light particles and disappeared.
This is different from the normal process of Dragonborn covering up their physical features. Seeing that Shade was a little surprised, the Countess with a fat-red birthmark on her forehead explained herself:
"I don't know why this happened. Maybe it's because of my bloodline. So, can you guys not gather here? Don't you have anything to do? I still feel like you guys are treating me like a hamster in a cage."
Everyone laughed, and when everyone dispersed, Shade did not stay here for long, but went to Margaret Manor. Recently, the city was foggy, and the princess rarely went out. All activities were carried out in this royal manor.
She had some time this afternoon, so after hearing what Xia De wanted to say, she told the maid to get the documents:
“The coroner you asked me to help investigate has already found some information. If you don’t come, I will go directly to you.
The information about his time as a student in Willendel is the most detailed, including his academic performance, circle of friends, and the evaluation of him by those old professors. The information sent by the New World Corps about his service as an accompanying military doctor is only partial, and the information about his ten years in Yuewan City is the least. "
The beautiful princess took the initiative to invite Xia De to sit down for afternoon tea, and was somewhat glad that her teacher had taken people out to survey the spatial stability of Yuewan City.
Little Mia was left on the boat to play with the little unicorn, so Shad didn't have to think about it. He thanked Margaret for the rose-filled cookie and sank into the soft sofa.
The anxious mood was also relieved by the comfortable environment. Xia De, who came to know all of Mr. Albert's past experiences, asked curiously:
"What is his origin?"
The princess also sat down next to Xia De, her pink breasts were very shiny:
"'Albert' is not the surname of any noble. Since you said that we cannot conduct a large-scale investigation, the results in the report are not very detailed. His surname is the same as his mother who is buried in the Willendel Public Cemetery, but his father cannot be found at all. His mother, Ms. Albert, was..."
She pursed her lips and showed an embarrassment, moved closer to Xia De, and grabbed Xia De's hand:
"My uncle, my father's cousin, Madame Albert, was the housekeeper. I saw that lady when I was a child; she died of incurable consumption, when the coroner was nearly finished with medical school."
Margaret wasn't very happy when she talked about these things:
"Ms. Albert's burial location is very unusual and of very high standards. Although it is a public cemetery, it is... And even though Mr. Albert is not in Willendel for many years, the grave is maintained and worshipped on a daily basis."
Xia De understood what she meant:
"You don't mean to say that M. Ptolemy Albert is your relation?"
"I don't know anything."
The blonde princess immediately shook her head. Even she couldn't explain the royal secrets.
Although Ptolemy Albert was not rich during his school years, he lived a fairly good life. His teachers and former classmates spoke highly of him, believing that he was a man of high character and integrity, but some people also thought that he was sometimes too upright.
During the investigation, we found out that a teacher at St. York's Medical College in Willendel had been over-reporting the loss of teaching equipment for years to make a profit. Everyone knew about this, but the young teacher's family was not rich, and he didn't make much from this kind of income, so no one cared. "
"Mr. Albert reported him?"
Shade asked, and Margaret shook her head again:
"Ptolemy Albert talked to the young teacher and hoped that he would not do this. Shortly afterwards, the young teacher committed suicide. There is no evidence to indicate the reason for his suicide. In his suicide note, he only said that he had been depressed for a long time and that it was the accumulation of various contradictions that prompted him to make such a decision.
But the incident still caused a stir, and some people said that Mr. Albert had forced his teacher to death. Fortunately, the matter was quickly settled, and the incident only remained in the memories of the students at that time.
Xia De felt that he really couldn't comment on this matter:
"So why did Mr. Ptolemy Albert choose to become a military doctor after graduation and go to the New World?"
The information obtained from the investigation has been delivered. After opening the file bag, the documents were scattered on the coffee table. Xia De picked up Mr. Albert's academic information:
"His grades are quite good. Even though I don't know the situation of that school, it's a pity for him to choose to be a military doctor with such grades. Even if he doesn't open a clinic to make money in a big city like Willendale, it's better for him to stay in school and teach than to run away to the New World."
PS: This paragraph about the Night Temple is not just about wasting words. It was about hoping for help from the moon, but there was no response.
