Nothing happened that night and everything was safe. After being woken up by Mia at 6:30 on Thursday morning, the blonde girl in a nightgown was still lying next to Shade, with golden hair covering her small ears and delicate side.
Her face and eyelashes trembled slightly when she opened her eyes. Dorothy Louisa also liked mornings like this very much.
Miss Sylvia, who arranged the ceremony for Dorothy's room, opened the portal early and came to the Green Lake Hotel from the basement. When Shade had breakfast with Dorothy and Miss Sylvia, he also heard that
Sister Devlin has arrived locally:
"The nuns have brought more than ten blind nuns from the [Spiritual Order], and they have already met with the church. The church plans to rely on the power of these blind nuns if the divination by the Prophet Association does not go smoothly.
Inspired to find a way to enter another island, this can be regarded as the second plan."
Mother-in-law Cassandra and her party will probably arrive tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. As for Miss Aurora, who came in a private capacity and kept a low profile, she may not be able to arrive in the City of Glass until the weekend.
However, Shade does not need to go to Sister Devlin specifically. The nun should come to him. The most important thing for Shade today is to meet those believers of the old gods.
The time agreed with Miss Denister was nine in the morning, so Shade was not in a hurry to go out. After breakfast, he went to see Doctor Schneider and Priest August respectively.
The doctor has been busy making the alchemical item for Shade these days, so he spends most of his time either in his own room or borrowing the basement to do alchemy experiments. When Shade entered the doctor's room this morning, he saw the unfinished coin.
, is being calcined in the small stove on the coffee table in the living room. The blue giant in the bottle is floating in the air, with his hands clasped in front of his chest to monitor the calcining temperature.
The flames in the small portable stove, which looked like an ordinary gas stove, were related to the power of the Balrog, but even so, the coins only changed color but did not melt.
“The production went very smoothly.”
The doctor invited Shade to sit down:
"Now there is only one last question left: What do you want the size and the front and back of this coin to be? Should it be made according to ready-made currency, or can you give me other plans?"
Because it involves betting on heads and tails, this question is indeed important:
"There is no size requirement, just make it whatever is convenient. As for the pattern, one side has the moon symbol and the other side has the sun symbol. If you feel that there are only symbols, it will look too simple. Doctor, just pick some runes related to the sun and moon for decoration.
Go up."
"This is simple. Since there are no special requirements for the pattern, the coin can probably be completed tonight. Remember to pick it up."
This was really fast. Shade met with the Old God believers in the morning and got the coins in the evening. He didn't even have to wait until Friday to use the key immediately.
【Are you really that anxious?】
Dr. Schneider will probably be busy all day today, but that's a good thing. It's still raining outside, so it's not a good time to go out. And depending on the doctor's luck, it's hard to say what will happen to him after he goes out, but he stays.
During the time when I was not out at the hotel, nothing happened in the hotel except Dorothy's accident.
Priest Augustus insisted on going out these days, but today Shade found the old priest before he went out. The priest seemed to be in a good mood. Occasionally leaving Tobesk to visit other places can really change people's mentality.
"I went to see Mr. Nicholas Green, and he really liked roast chicken."
In the room on the third floor where the priest lived, he said with a smile:
"Although the old Mr. Green doesn't know much, it is very valuable. Among the materials and books left to him by the fortune teller you mentioned, there is some information related to the ancient god - the ancient god of death. I can guess
Come on, where did he get the remains?"
This also shows that at least the angel bones were not originally found on the island.
"Can you get the bones? If not, you can land on the island with the church when we rush to the island. You can always see the bones."
But the priest was cleaning his pipe and shaking his head:
"It's not that troublesome, and getting the skeleton back in advance will also make your final actions easier. I need something closely related to the skeleton, and use them to resonate with the position of the skeleton. Plus other remains I own
, enough for it to take the initiative to appear in front of me."
In other words, you don't have to go to the island to get the bones.
Shade thought for a while:
"You mean the lichs that the three Edwards brothers turned into?"
"Yes, the special ghoul transformed by Nicholas Green has the power of the skeleton, but not much."
The priest nodded:
"Didn't you say that the three brothers are now looking for descendants of Green Lake Town?"
"Yes, the church has fought against them during this time. Those three ghoul lichs, when I first saw them, could only join forces to activate the Mystery Chain, but now they are getting more and more powerful. You know the sun
Miss Iluna Bayas from the church is my friend. She told me not long ago that the three things now combined are difficult for ordinary eleven-ring warlocks to deal with. What's more, they are very good at escaping and will not die.
Destroy."
Shade explained that in addition to the church, the Witch's followers also recently encountered the three corpse lichs when performing the Witch's task list. They spoke highly of these three undead. If Shade continues
When encountering them, it might be Shade's turn to think about how to escape.
"The most troublesome problem is actually that most of the powers that have special damage effects on the undead are ineffective against those three brothers. Priest, when I encountered them, even the power you gave me that was integrated with the badge couldn't hurt them.
.”
"That's why I came."
Priest August pointed to himself:
"Since I'm here, I don't need to trouble you about this matter. There is no need to set any traps to lure the three brothers. I will find a way to sense their location myself. However, I need a card that can go back and forth between Green Lake City and Michaela Blast Furnace City.
Pass, and then you just wait for the good news."
"No problem. You can take my pass first. It can be used at the crossroads barracks. If you encounter any difficulties, just go to Captain Rades. He is my friend."
Shade handed the pass to the priest. He could write to Captain Rades later and ask for another one. Although a big shot like Miss Carina could directly issue him an indefinite transit document, on the one hand, this
There was too much movement. On the other hand, Captain Rades was in charge, and sometimes the in-charge was more useful than the Duke's orders.
The matter of the angel's remains is left to the priests, and the search for Maria Edwards's soul is left to the Witches' Council, so Shade can deal with other matters with peace of mind.
After bidding farewell to the priest, he set off to see Miss Danister. Shade arrived ten minutes early. Unexpectedly, the believers of the old gods were actually sent by the people of the Prophet Association half an hour early.
Miss Daniste did not participate in the conversation, but asked Shade to meet them on his own. Similarly, Shade would not ask what the academy's thoughts were on the [Pedestal of Destiny]. This was a tacit understanding among everyone.
Entering the study, sitting and waiting on the sofa were two men who looked like Kasenrick. The slightly older one looked at least ten years older than Dr. Schneider, only slightly younger because his hair did not appear gray. The younger one.
The other wears glasses and looks about thirty years old.
What they have in common is that they all wear gold rings on their fingers. This is not a relic like the "witch's gold ring", but ordinary jewelry, which is said to be a necessary medium for performing divine magic.
"I won't introduce myself. I came to you through St. Byrons this time to ask about something about your order."
After he sat down, he started the topic directly, and the two men opposite him sat upright.
Before coming, the ring magicians from the Prophets Association told them that someone had approached St. Byrons and asked him to ask them to discuss some doctrinal issues with strangers. Therefore, they knew that the person in front of them was definitely something extraordinary.
"I heard that you have lost most of the information on the Fifth Era, and even most of the religious classics. But I think you must still have some oral stories. I have no intention of exploring your core secrets, but
."
"Please don't say that. St. Byrons has paid for it, so we can answer whatever you ask."
The older man reminded Shade. Suddenly, Shade quickly changed his mind and reorganized his words in the same way as he communicated with the old John who opened the pawn shop in Tobesk:
"I understand. Then I will ask directly: In the fifth era, the Golden Order was one of the most influential religious organizations. At the same time, the great man of your faith was also the one with the most recorded divine descendants.
.So in the Fifth Era, is there a general way to meet the gods you believe in? I am investigating the history of the Fifth Era, and there are still many doubts about the old gods setting foot in the material world."
He even gave an explanation for his question, and the two people opposite gave him the answer without much thinking:
"First of all, we need to make it clear that although our Lord is the god who has set foot in the material world the most in the records of the Fifth Era, there must be a reason for the appearance of gods. It is not certain that they will appear as long as a mortal calls.
As for the general way to call my Lord, the mortal must have a valuable transaction item in his hand, or the transaction to be carried out itself is valuable. My Lord likes those interesting transactions, and also likes those treasures that cannot be valued. The treasure here refers to
It is definitely not powerful weapons, weird relics or huge amounts of gold and silver treasures. God does not care about these mundane things.
My Lord cares about other things - the great music composed in a flash of inspiration, the true love that touches everyone, the fearless heroic soul who is willing to sacrifice, these are priceless treasures."
