"Speaking of which, I wonder if you have noticed it."
Shade asked:
"The ointment of the poet-level [Ointment Slug], the special alloy of the Keeper-level [Star Sword Stone], the swordsmith of the sage-level [Unknown Swordsmith's Apron], the angel-level [Ancient Dragon Stone]
Long, assuming these are all materials for the Chosen Ceremony, do you feel like this is forging a sword?"
The purple-eyed fortune teller nodded immediately:
"The ointment is sword oil, the special alloy of the Star Sword Stone is the main material, and the swordsmith is the swordsmith. The dragon in the dragon stone may be used to test swords, or it may be that the bones from this special dragon are needed or
Blood is used as an auxiliary material. Yes, it does seem like you are forging a sword."
“But are these four really all you need?”
Tifa asked again, Shade shook his head:
"Maybe a fifth piece is needed. If [Ointment Slug] corresponds to light, [Ancient Dragon Transformation Stone] corresponds to dragon, and the other two pieces correspond to sword making, then there should be at least one corresponding to [Justice]. That ancient god is the best
The three most important functions are light. Dragons and justice are both very ancient relics. Moreover, the purpose of the notebook left behind by the 'Light Chaser' is unclear. Anyway, we need to look for the apron and the slug first. After that, we still need to look at the dragon scales.
What information can be displayed?"
"The four dragon scales of black, green, gold and silver correspond to the Black, Wood, Belindel and Silver families. Bella and I will divine the locations of the remaining three as soon as possible. We have been busy with this recently.
thing."
Luvia promised, Shade nodded and didn't ask much about their progress. He was still very relieved about Luvia.
There is nothing much to say about the investigation records of [Eternal Light]. Shade just asked the maids to help summarize the key points, and then he would read it himself.
At noon, everyone had lunch together in the manor, but because the witches have been busy recently, they dispersed after lunch.
Of course, Shade had something to do that afternoon. After lunch, he and Luvia went out to Spider Alley.
Last night, the meeting time arranged with John Flynn on the Moon Bay Bridge in "The Edge of Life and Death" was at two o'clock in the afternoon. Shade originally wanted Luvia to ambush around the street and take a look at him to confirm his identity, but Luvia
Ya went into the tavern with him:
"I'll sit next to you and meet him. I'll just disguise my face."
Compared with Shade, John Flynn came alone. He showed up on time at 1:58. When he saw Shade at the table by the wall, he waved his hand and walked directly over.
Of course he noticed that there was a stranger sitting next to Shad this time, but considering that Shad was surrounded by different people almost every time he appeared, he was not surprised:
"Good afternoon, Mr. Watson."
"Good afternoon, Mr. Flynn, let's keep the story short. Everyone is very busy."
John Flynn sat down opposite Shade and Luvia, folded his hands and put them on the table:
"That's what I mean too."
"This time we came for the [Light Worshipers Training Conference], and they behaved very strangely. The initial rumor was that they were cooperating with the [Dragon Feast Order] to help the [Dragon Feast Order] station, which had little influence in the local area.
Keep a firm foothold. However, [Dragon Feast Order] has done so many things in Yuewan in the past month or so, but [Light Worshipers Training Association] has not done anything."
He stared at the person across the table:
“I initially thought that the [Light Worshipers Training Society] was manipulating the local organization [Eternal Light] to do things secretly, but later it was confirmed that the two were just a cooperative relationship, and the former even wanted to annex the latter but failed.
Therefore, we met the Light Chasers in the fog last night. It was one of the few things they did proactively. The loss of control on the edge of life and death was definitely caused by his use of a strange object (note). Although you have few people, you can investigate
The progress is definitely not slow. I would like to know if you have any news about the [Light Worshipers Training Conference] here?"
John Flynn nodded, but did not pick up Shade's pen and paper:
"Our team of four is a standard adventurer team. Even if we are not in a dangerous wilderness, but in a bustling city, we still have a place to play our part. Speaking of which, Moon Bay is really prosperous. In the past month or so,
I explored so many things in taverns, underground black markets, gang stations, noble manors, and underground ruins, and it was almost more exciting than life in the New World."
Of course he didn't change the subject:
"Yes, I do have some information here. You saved us last Sunday, and I should be grateful, but my information is also very vague. I think you should know that the ultimate purpose of those madmen has always been to guide mankind
Become light.”
"Yes."
"Their purpose in Yuewan is also this. Let the [Dragon Feast Order] rush in front and pretend that they care about the chosen ones just like those cultists. This is actually true, [Light Worshiper Training Society]
It is true that there is no giving up on the chosen ones.
But their real purpose is to divert the attention of the cultists. They hide and operate secretly, only occasionally taking action to show their existence. Judging from the information we have so far, they are planning to destroy the city on the day when the prophecy of Yuewan comes true.
Taking advantage of the chaos, he launched a large-scale ceremony to turn the entire city into light."
Luvia sat next to Shade and said nothing, while Shade raised his eyebrows, guessing that the notebook last night was simply the "Light Chaser" trying to divert their attention and help them find something to do. But what if
That’s true, the plan for the [Light Worshipers Training Association] should be almost completed:
"Your statement can explain a lot of things. The [Light Worshipers Training Group] has mastered the method of using that special light and has the ability to do so. But, what is your source of information?"
John Flynn shook his head slightly:
"Sorry, in order to protect the safety of the person who gave me the information, please allow me to keep the source of the information confidential."
Shade recalled the scene he had seen in the memory of the past Mr. Bernhardt. In the sixth era when the Yuewan Bridge was suspected to have been built, Mr. Bernhardt died in that scene that was about to take place.
The whole city was transformed into a disaster of light.
"Do you know what method they are going to use?"
He asked again, and the young man across the table thought for a moment before shaking his head:
"I don't know yet. In fact, the church has also been on guard against the [Light Worshipers Seminar]. Even without me reminding them, the church can guess what those crazy people want to do. Without finding them, they can only
Can study what is needed to safely defend against that strange light.
Although some high-level relics have a weakening effect on that light, it is obvious that the church wants a method that can be popularized."
John Flynn talked with Shade for a while longer, and before leaving, at Shade's request, he read the note written by Shade.
And when he really left the Spider Hotel, Luvia looked at Shade:
"Second candidate."
"Are you sure you are the second candidate?"
"Of course. According to the current ranking, the first is unknown, the second is John Flynn, I haven't seen the egg yet, but it should be that thing and Emilia in third and fourth, and finally Ogu
Priest Si. The Sword of the Wind King, the Bone Sacrifice Sword, the Ocarina of Time, and the right arm of the angel are ranked first. If a stranger who no one knows suddenly appears, he is probably the holder of [Blood Sorrow]."
Shade sighed and looked in the direction of the autopsy room not far away:
"I think I should have the answer."
The purple-eyed girl raised her eyebrows:
"I see you are hesitating."
"Yes, in fact, it is also beneficial to make him the chosen one of the light. [Blood Sorrow] is possessed by vampires. In this way, the red wine-loving Duke can help me seriously, but I still feel sorry for him.
There are some concerns that his mental state is not as stable as the John Flynn we just met."
Shade frowned:
"We really encountered a problem this time. Except for the egg that definitely cannot be chosen, none of the candidates this time are bad guys in the traditional sense."
"After all, it is light and justice. It is normal that there are more good people who meet the requirements."
Luvia said with a smile. She was not worried at all, nor was she urging Shade to make a decision:
"Anyway, the final battle hasn't come yet. You still have time to think. Shade, do you remember? Our original purpose was to witness the stories of the chosen ones. It doesn't matter whether it is the best choice."
After all, the long-haired Luvia in the past life had already chosen the "best choice" many times, but it was obviously not the right answer.
"I understand, Luvia, I understand everything."
With John Flynn's ranking determined, the identities of the candidates for the "Light" selection are almost clear. As long as a stranger doesn't suddenly pop up and claim that he is also a candidate, it can basically be determined.
The seventh candidate was selected from these five people.
Luvia is very satisfied with the result. According to her, although the number of candidates this time is a bit larger, the quality of the candidates to choose from is quite good. Emilia, Priest August and even John Flynn,
They are all pretty ideal candidates.
Of course, she would not interfere with Shade's final choice.
After that, Luvia left south and went to the "Brilliant Messenger" at the dock to return to Belindle Manor. Shade sat in the tavern for a while before standing up and walking to the autopsy room at the end of Spider Alley.
It is a pity that Shade did not meet Mr. Bernhardt in the autopsy room that afternoon, nor did he meet Mr. Ptolemy Albert here. The latter was out to deal with his own personal affairs, and he was not what Shade imagined.
In addition to resting at home, he has been active in the autopsy room.
Of course, there are other coroners working here. After hearing that Shade was a friend of Mr. Albert, the other party warmly invited him to wait in a clean and smell-free office:
"Ptolemy said he would be back before dinner, and he kept his word. Once he promised to give me a vase that was not in use at home, but he forgot to bring it the next day. Later, he ran home to get it. He
This man is the most honest guy I have ever met. He will definitely be back before half past five."
