Chapter 1950 The Church's Promise
Now that a lot of time has passed since 15 minutes, he must speed up.Fortunately, this strange island no longer has much influence on him, and the monsters here will not actively attack him. If they rush over at full speed within 10 minutes, there shouldn't be much problem.
Crossing half of the island is a very troublesome thing for ordinary people, but in fact, when Shade arrived at the location of the disappeared mansion in the south of the town from the entrance of the Green Lake Hotel, only 7 minutes had passed.
The fluttering butterflies turned into Shade's appearance in the rain, and continued to move towards the hills. Sure enough, the closer to the old Edwards house, the less the rain and the thicker the fog.
This was the only way to the mansion in the town, and there seemed to be countless things peeping at him in the fog, but he made it so smoothly, and finally arrived in front of Edwards' old mansion.
In reality and in dreams, Xia De has been here countless times.Looking outside the mansion at this time, all the windows are lit up, and different figures can be seen moving inside the house through the windows.Like a servant in the house, or a guest who came to a banquet.
No one was here to welcome Shad, but the fence gate in the courtyard outside the house was not locked either.
Xia De stretched out his hand to open the door and walk in, but suddenly heard a voice behind him:
"Have you decided to make a choice?"
Turning around to look, there was a lady in a green robe behind him at some point.She has beautiful blue eyes, but they are a bit different from the eye color of the blond and blue-eyed Miss Writer, and the color is darker.In her hand she holds a glowing green twig, and around her neck hangs the holy symbol of two overlapping leaves belonging to the Church of Nature.
"You are the Nightmare Witch of the Church of Nature, Miss Maria?"
The sorceress with the thirteen rings has been known to Shade since the Pantanal incident.She is a friend of Sister Divelin. Although she doesn't look old, and looks similar to Miss Aurora and Miss Benanis, she is actually the oldest of the existing thirteen-ring magicians in the Church of the Five Gods. that batch.
"I came through a dream projection, this place is not my body."
The lady with emerald green eyes spoke to Shad in Delarion.Although Xia De has been in contact with her many times, it is the first time to have such a close conversation:
"Hello, what's the matter with calling me? I'm in a hurry to go to the banquet now."
He pointed to the house with the lights on:
"If you want to find the balanced chosen one, you can go to the south of the island, where she should be."
The sorceress with the thirteen rings shook her head slightly:
"God caller, I'll wait for you here."
Xia De was a little surprised, but still nodded:
"What's the matter? Who are you speaking to me on behalf of?"
"God Summoner, so far, this is the appearance of the sixth Chosen One. Who are the first five Chosen Ones, you are more or less involved. You are choosing the Chosen One."
"NO, I have not."
Shad shook his head, but the lady in the mist did not retort:
"I am waiting for you here. I hope you can tell us who you want to be the chosen one this time. It is almost impossible to stop the activation of Edwards' magic. Even if you walk ahead of everyone again, I'm afraid It is also difficult to stop the initiation of the ceremony. But you still have a chance to kill the traitor of the Prophet Association in the middle of the ceremony, and you can also choose to be his enemy after he completes the ceremony. So this time, who will you choose?"
"Certainly not the traitor of the Prophet Association."
He said with certainty:
"If it can be stopped, I will stop him and let the second candidate hold the ceremony. This is the best result I can think of. If it can't be stopped, even if he really becomes the chosen one, I will kill him .If he dies, the second candidate will not be able to hold the ceremony. In order to stabilize the space, I will let the third candidate come. The third candidate is my people, and they will be fine."
The female sorceress with the thirteen rings nodded lightly:
"This is also the result that the Church hopes to see. Godcaller, after the battle of the Randall Valley, the Church of the Sun will follow the oracle and will not over-probe your identity, and the Church of the Five Gods has no intention of being an enemy of you. For so long, You have been helping the Church, and after the Battle of Green Lake, the Church would like to send you a gift."
Xia De frowned slightly:
"Actually, you can directly say what the church wants you to say to me."
"Laplace Klein Howard, has some information. I don't mean the information about human body refining, or even the information about Edwards' magic. He has excessively explored the truth of "Whispering Verses", and also I have tried to know the mysteries of time, to spy on the past and the future, things that should not be known by the present."
"Nightmare Witch" Maria said softly:
"Those materials must still be in his hands. We will not prevent you from obtaining and knowing them. That is your right. The church just hopes that it is enough for you to know those things. Follow the path of Laplace Klein Howard to continue research."
"The church knows what he specifically researched. No, it's the Prophet Association?"
The sorceress nodded:
"The Prophet Association and the Church of the Five Gods are in a cooperative relationship, and we have no right to completely interfere with their research. This time, in order to fight against Laplace Klein Howard, the Prophet Association finally said that once in Laplace S. Klein Howard's active years, some taboo subjects studied by the Association."
"Well, I can just read it myself and not spread that knowledge around. Or if I have the chance, I'll destroy all his research materials but what can I get?"
Xia De asked, and the sorceress asked back:
"Excuse me, what do you need?"
Obviously there are many choices left for him, but Xia De said without thinking:
"First, the Philosopher's Stone. Second, I want a heart from the living dead."
The "Heart of the Living Dead" was something Xia De had long wanted to get again, and it was also to prevent an accident tonight, but there was no remedy.As for the "Philosopher's Stone", when the answer came out instinctively, he himself was surprised by his choice.But thinking about it carefully, the "Philosopher's Stone" is indeed very good, so he didn't change his words.
Miss Maria nodded slightly:
"No problem. In addition to the gift originally prepared for you, we will give you these two items through appropriate channels after the Battle of Green Lake. The Philosopher's Stone is raised by our Church of Nature. Thank you for your perfect dealt with the evil of the Pantanal."
Her figure was a little unstable, but she still reached out to Xia De:
"God caller, I have a power here that I can give you temporarily, hoping to help you fight against the fortune-teller."
So the two held hands together, and as the sorceress' figure turned into a green spot of light in the mist, that spot flew towards Xia De's right arm, leaving a patch on his skin surface. An imprint in the shape of a leaf.
[No problem, just pure power. 】
Xia De nodded, pushed the door and entered the courtyard of Edwards' old house.
As if going back in time, all the scenery in the courtyard of the old house seems to be still in use yesterday.The big trees were full of leaves, the ropes and the seat of the swing were shaking in the rain, the mouth of the well was not covered by stone slabs, and the flower beds beside the fence were still blooming.
When he came to the door of the house, Xia De knocked on the door, and then the door opened automatically in front of him.
The sound of cheerful dance music and the bright lights made Xia De's eyes feel a little uncomfortable when he came from the dark night.Those people happily dancing to the music in the house clearly have the heartbeat and vitality of a living person, but in Xia De's eyes, they are still moving in almost every corner of the house like ghosts.
No one paid any attention to Xia De. Xia De ticked his little finger and felt that Megan seemed to be on the third floor, but the invitation card in his hand showed the words on the second floor:
"Well, let's go to the third floor first, it's finally time."
Squeezing through the well-dressed townspeople, they walked all the way from the stairs to the third floor of the mansion.Pushing away the crowded crowd in the corridor, under the bright gas lamp, I saw the only open door on the third floor, which was the banquet hall of the mansion with a red carpet and magnificent double-opening golden doors.
The person dressed as the old butler maintained a bowing posture at the door, and the crowded crowd in the house only left a vacant seat at the door of the banquet hall.
Handed the invitation card in his hand to the butler, and then stepped into the banquet hall.Compared to the bustle and bustle outside, there were no townspeople in the huge banquet hall, not even the Megan that Shade felt.
Stepping into the room, the surroundings became completely quiet.There is only one dining table here, and there is only one person sitting at the dining table.
The ancestor of the Edwards family, the origin of everything in the family, Laplace Howard, wearing a black tuxedo and a monocle, is sitting on the head seat at the end of the long table facing the door. The other members of the family are missing .
He stared at Xia De standing at the door, Xia De asked:
"What about the rest?"
The fortune teller said softly:
"I sent Pride and Glatoni, who are well injured, to attack your hotel. The others are waiting for us in another place. The banquet will not officially begin until they come back. Please rest assured, I will not Hurt your friends, I just wanted to make it a little safer tonight."
The two names he said were the second son and youngest daughter of three generations, and also Meghan's grandfather and grandmother.The former was corrupted into a demon, and the latter transformed into a demonic black dragon, which Shade still remembers vividly.
Xia De narrowed his eyes slightly:
"Delaying time? Is your ceremony not ready yet?"
"No, it's not delaying time. I originally wanted to start the banquet directly. I have been waiting for this moment for more than 200 years, but my most important partner wants me to have a special invitation with you before the banquet officially starts. Carry out some interesting activities. She wants to see what else you can do without summoning the gods."
"Partner. Truth Society? Is Miss Pavo here?"
