"Let other people deal with these annoying things. We risked our lives to win a war. There is no reason to have to deal with the aftermath."
Shade looked at the wine in the glass in front of him:
"Although I can take a little rest during this period, I don't think it will be too long before I start my journey again in a month or two at most."
Mr. Albert showed a rare smile:
"This is a toast to you."
He picked up the cup, and Shade also raised his cup:
"Please also allow me to express my respect to you. Without you and no one else, I alone cannot solve this matter."
The two clinked glasses and tasted the taste of the free glass of rye beer before Shade asked the most important thing:
"What is your current state? Judging from the situation getting worse each time, the story of the eighth chosen one will probably be more difficult to handle. Both I and the world need your strength."
The coroner wearing a burqa shook his head:
"As I said yesterday, I am now in a sealed state. The me you see now is just the 'incarnation of light'. Although it can be said to be the true body, I don't have much power that I can activate."
"Is it really impossible to break through the seal temporarily? For example, use some magical props to turn you into light again, and then control the powerful stone body that is hidden for fighting, and rush to the battlefield to help us. Even if there is a time limit.
Well, you can fly anyway."
Shade asked eagerly, but the black-haired coroner shook his head regretfully:
"Even with the help of death and the earth, I can appear in the form of an incarnation, but the price of the ancient god's magic is not so easy to break through."
Seeing Xia De frowning in thought, he added:
"In the state before you, I still have the power of the chosen one, but it is far less powerful. Moreover, the seal of the ancient god's magic is not permanent, and others cannot help. I have to break through the seal bit by bit.
Mr. Watson, this is a good thing for me. I have performed justice, and then I will be reborn. When the day I come back, I think I will already be the thirteenth ring."
"That's right. If everything goes as planned, so many people won't be sacrificed this time. Mr. Albert, I'm waiting for your appearance on the day of the final battle."
Shade said with a smile, and the coroner corrected:
"I won't leave here. You can come to Spider Alley anytime you want to find me. I have no intention of dealing with the church, and besides, I can't be of much help in my current state.
After experiencing so many things, I also have some other understandings of my own ideas. I plan to take advantage of the reconstruction period of Yuewan to increase the development of [Eternal Light]. Although most of them are ordinary people, for
Facing the final outcome, ordinary people are not completely powerless."
"I agree with you. If you need help, I can introduce you to some friends."
Although the [Guiding Light Priory] gave up accepting them as one of its own because of some of [Eternal Light]'s excessive behaviors, the two can still cooperate.
"And that holy sword."
The coroner lowered his voice and continued:
"That sword is not sealed. Although it will lose a lot of power if it leaves my hand, if necessary, you can ask me to borrow it when facing a strong enemy."
Shade then asked curiously:
"What kind of power does it have now? I mean when it is out of your hand."
Although he used the sword yesterday, it was obviously a special situation at that time.
"According to the church's danger classification, it can be classified as an angel-level relic, and it is a very strong angel-level relic. But when facing the evil god-[Dragon-Eating Demon], it can be regarded as an agnostic level.
It inherits all the characteristics of [Bloodmourne] and has new properties. I'm not sure which one is stronger than your [Night Watch], but at least this sword is far higher in terms of 'personality'
To your sword."
"After all, it is a genuine artifact."
Shade nodded understandingly, but he was not very interested in that sword. He would borrow it if necessary. Usually, he still preferred his [Night Watch].
"Speaking of which, Mr. Watson, did you bring that card?"
Mr. Albert asked again, and Shade took out [Creation Light] from his pocket and handed it to him:
"this one?"
"Yes, I want to give you a gift."
He took the card in his right hand, closed his eyes and pressed it on his left chest, which is in front of his heart. As his right hand glowed slightly, the card was also dyed with pure white light:
"Praise to [Dragon of Light], may your light always be with me."
After waiting for a while, he returned the card to Shade:
"I placed a door in this card. You just need to find a suitable position to make the door appear and be fixed."
Shade raised his eyebrows:
"[Holy White Auditorium]?"
Mr. Albert looked up at him across the table in surprise:
"Sure enough, you know more about these things related to the ancient gods than I thought. Yes, [Holy White Auditorium]. So do you know how to enter there?"
Shade certainly knew that "a piece of true information - Holy White Auditorium" was one of his rewards for completing the "Golden Sand Sea" mission. He was just thinking that after Iluna became the chosen one, she did not receive any direct reward.
Gives the ability to the "All Things Impermanence Card" door.
The Dark Gate comes from killing the chosen ones, the Death Gate is born from the "edge of life and death" that already exists in the home, the Knowledge Gate comes from the sealed power of the chosen ones, and the Earth Gate is a direct gift from the guardians.
Yes, the Space Gate is the first abnormal location Shade discovered in his home:
"If you want to enter this kind of space left by ancient gods, in addition to finding the door, you also need three necessary conditions: the corresponding spiritual runes, the incantation and the corresponding special artifacts, that is, the keys. The corresponding spiritual runes of [Holy White Auditorium]
The requirement has to do with light”
When Shade reached the second level, he had [Witch's Light].
"The mantra is: May the eternal light protect me who walks with the light."
Mr. Albert gave the second answer, and Shade also knew the third answer:
"As for the key, it seems to be the scales left by the ancient gods to symbolize different dragon races."
This is what Miss Belindle told Shade a long time ago.
Mr. Albert nodded:
"Yes, every time the ancient dragon god creates a new dragon, he will give them one of his own dragon scales. Even I don't know the specific number of dragon scales. The ones left by the descendants of the fourth son of the ancient god
The seven dragon scales are part of them."
He took out a small ziplock bag from his pocket and pushed it to Shade:
"The property returns to its original owner."
"You don't need them anymore?"
Shade asked curiously and touched the bag. It turned out that there were indeed seven dragon scales symbolizing the "Seven Families of Moon Bay", but their power was already extremely weak.
"No need. Don't worry, as long as the dragons represented by these dragon scales still exist, their power will soon become stronger again. These dragon scales are almost indestructible, and you can use them at will."
After finishing speaking, the coroner did not forget to remind:
"The legal basis for the seven major families to rule Yuewan comes from the descendants of the fourth son of the ancient god. Now that the prophecy has ended, and the last power of the descendants has disappeared, you seem to have a little bit left. In short, if the seven major families still want to continue to rule Yuewan,
In order to gain the power of the Bay, they must welcome back their respective dragon scales, otherwise they will be no different from ordinary mortal families."
"Is this so? Is this fate?"
Shade asked, but he didn't know about this matter. But the "Fourth Son's Blessing" made it very clear that even if the seven major families welcomed back their respective dragon scales, Shade's current rule of law over this land would be stronger than theirs.
"destiny?"
The coroner, who is also a fortune teller, showed a very serious expression:
"Mr. Watson, this is not fate, but it is fate."
That's why Xia Decai always thought that fortune tellers always like to say such incomprehensible words, and this time the vampire fortune teller did not exceed his expectations.
"Then I will accept the dragon scale. Oh, since you gave me that door, I will give you this in return."
Shade put away the playing cards and dragon scales, and took out the things he brought specially for this trip out of his pocket.
It was a very delicate little wooden box. After it was pushed open, it contained a small metal dragon statue.
"Meow~"
The cat, which had always been very well-behaved, barked at the little statue, and then calmed down after Shade touched its head. Little Mia's head felt good.
Mr. Albert stretched his head to look, and then said with some surprise:
"This is the one in the hands of the [Light Worshipers Training Group]. I thought you would keep this in your hand, or give it to the [Witch Council]."
Shade pushed the box over:
"Compared to us, this statue is more suitable for you, isn't it?"
"You should know its value, Mr. Watson. The value of this statue can even be compared to that of the holy sword in my hand. Only in my hand can the most powerful holy sword be born. The [Light Worshipers Training Association] can give birth to 'Zhu'
Thirteenth-ring warlocks like the Light One rely on this."
Shade naturally understood, but he also understood that "Light Chaser" was the only truly dead Thirteen Rings he had seen in more than a year:
"But you need it, don't you?"
The stranger looked across the table at the coroner:
"We are friends."
Ptolemy Albert also looked at him, looked at each other for a moment and then nodded gently:
"Yes, we are friends."
He carefully brought the box in front of him and let out a long breath:
"But friends must be equal. You need that diamond, right? I'll lend it to you for a month and use it as you wish. But I want to remind you that although the [Hope Diamond] is the mildest among unknowable relics,
, but it is an unknowable relic after all. You also have professional diviners around you, so it is best to let them help take care of this thing.
Although it has the name of ‘hope’, it does not mean that it cannot lead to despair.”
