Chapter 663 Goddess Statue!
After returning to the academy, Gervais and Lucky went directly back to their dormitories.
"Phew! Now I finally don't have to worry about gold coins. I'll just wait for the caravan from the Holy Trading Company to contact Caroline. Then you can choose whether to go or stay!"
After closing the door of the dormitory, Gervais went directly to the sofa and sat down.
Today he has finally completed his money-making plan, allowing him to wait for news about Caroline at the academy with peace of mind.
Even if he needs to go find Caroline in person in the future, there will be enough funds for him to make adequate preparations, which can be regarded as relieving him of a psychological burden.
Of course, this is because Gervais does not know that his cheap wife is about to come to the City of Hope as the queen of the elves, otherwise she would probably have smiles on her face.
After sitting on the sofa and resting for a while, Gervais remembered that he had spent more than 5,000 gold coins on a statue of a god at an auction.
Moreover, this god was a rare task issued by the system that required him to take a picture.
"What's so weird about this statue of a god? Can it reveal a cheating system that hasn't appeared in months?"
Gervais muttered in his heart, and opened his space ring directly with this question.
Then, with a thought in his mind, the statue of the god, which was only more than ten centimeters high, appeared in his hand.
"Statue of the gods!"
After putting the stone statue of the god in his hands, Gervais began to observe it carefully. It was not easy for him to investigate at the auction site before, so he only took a brief look at it. Now that he returned to the dormitory, he naturally needed to investigate carefully and take a look.
Can you find anything strange?
"Hey, something's wrong. Why is the chest of this god statue bulging?"
When Gervais picked up the statue and observed it carefully for a moment, he found some clues.
Because after his own identification, he found that the chest of the god statue was slightly bulging, as if it were a female statue.
Of course, in fact, this is not very obvious, otherwise Gervais would not have noticed it on the spot at the auction site before. He needs to look carefully now to find out the clues.
Gervais looked away in confusion and looked at the face of the god statue, but that face was clearly that of a handsome man. Gervais could naturally tell this.
"Could it be that Brother Chun is an iron-blooded man? Are boys and girls alike?"
Gervais wondered in his mind whether this was possible.
"Huh? No, there is a mezzanine here!"
Just when Gervais was thinking wildly, he suddenly discovered that there was a gap on the side of the stone statue's cheek and below the ear.
This gap is very small, many times smaller than a hair. If Gervais had not had extraordinary eyesight, he would not have been able to spot it.
"Could it be a mask? Or there's something else inside?"
Gervais's eyes showed a curious look, so he immediately took out an ordinary short blade from the space ring.
Then he inserted the tip of the short-edged sword into the tiny gap.
Click!
As the tip of the short-edged sword inserted into the gap, Gervais twisted it slightly, and a crisp sound immediately came from the statue of the god.
Then Gervais was stunned.
"She is really a goddess!"
When Gervais unscrewed the gap, a shell on the face of the god statue was immediately lifted and fell from the statue.
And underneath this stone mask is a peerless face, with bright eyes and white teeth, a soft demeanor but an air of untainted temperament, which is completely consistent with the image of a goddess in Gervais's mind.
Of course, this goddess is not the kind of goddess you call a beautiful woman, but a truly aloof deity like the goddess of life.
In addition, what surprised Gervais even more was that the statue of the god was not a stone statue at all. The outer layer of stone was just a shell, more like it was added later to protect the things inside.
The real material inside is an unknown material that is as transparent as crystal.
"Let's treat you as a crystal statue first!"
The reason why Gervais was sure that this transparent crystal-like material was not real crystal was because when he lightly touched the statue with his fingers, he could clearly feel the warmth from the statue.
The crystals in this world are similar to the crystals in Gervase's previous life. They don't feel warm when touched.
"Peel off the entire stone shell first!"
Now that he knew that the rough stone statue outside was just a shell, Gervais naturally would not keep it, and then used the short blade in his hand to carefully peel off the shell.
After just a few minutes, Gervais completely peeled off the stone shell of the statue of the god.
What appeared in front of him at this time was a statue of a goddess made of crystal-like material.
Although the armor and weapons on the body have not changed, the statue of the goddess is no longer comparable to its previous appearance.
At this time, the statue of the goddess is vivid, as if the real goddess is here in person, and you can feel the grace of the goddess just by looking at it.
"Well! It seems that five thousand gold coins are not a loss now. Although I don't know what this transparent and crystal-like material is, but according to Lachi, a material that can carve and leave the appearance of a god must be extraordinary.
."
Looking at the statue of this peerless goddess, Gervais kept thinking in his mind.
"However, this goddess statue must have some secrets that I haven't discovered, otherwise the system wouldn't just let me get this statue with extraordinary material!"
After continuing to observe for a while, Gervais could not find any other clues.
Because the statue of the goddess at this time has an unobstructed view and can be seen directly through the statue itself, there are no secrets inside the statue.
If there is any effect, it can only be from other aspects, such as the aura of the gods contaminated by it.
These things are not something that Gervais can detect now, so Gervais plans to go to the college's library to see if there is any introduction to this aspect when he is free in the future.
After having this idea, Gervais stopped observing the statue. Then with a thought, the goddess statue was taken into his space.
After putting the goddess statue into the space ring, Gervais went directly to the training room to start practicing fighting spirit.
In the past two days, Gervais can already feel that he is not far away from becoming a Golden Knight.
Sitting cross-legged in the center of the training room, Gervais began to practice with concentration.
But when Gervais began to concentrate on training, strange things happened inside his space ring.
Originally, the concept of time did not exist within the storage space.
Because this is a strange and relatively eternal space, a place that has not been understood by humans for thousands of years.
But when Gervais put the goddess statue that he spent 5,000 gold coins into the space, the goddess statue that was originally just like an ordinary crystal statue changed.
In this dark and small storage space, faint white light spots began to appear faintly in the body of the goddess statue. These light spots were very small and kept appearing and gathering in the body of the goddess statue.
As the number of light points within the body of the goddess statue increased, it finally slowly extended outside the statue, and headed towards an object in the storage space like a beam of light.
After a while, the white beam finally arrived at its destination, and through the faint light you could see that it was a small seed.
This seed was a gift that Gervais received from the Holy Tree when he was in the Holy City of Heka. At that time, he and Adela each received one.
However, after arriving in the Holy Continent, Gervais has been running around, always thinking that if he goes back and improves his strength, he will have no time to study how to cultivate the seeds of this holy tree.
Moreover, even if such seeds were to be planted, Gervais was prepared to wait until he returned to Eurasia to plant them on his own chassis, so he kept them in the space ring.
At this time, the white light points emitted by the goddess statue had slowly enveloped the holy tree seeds, and then more and more light points followed the beam of light and came to the holy tree seeds.
When these light points came to the Holy Tree Seed, they began to slowly penetrate the shell of the Holy Tree Seed, and then merged into the Holy Seed.
All of this happened within the storage space, and no one knew about it. Even Gervais, the person involved, was completely unaware of it.
After about a few minutes, the spots of light emanating from the statue of the goddess became less and less until they completely disappeared and merged into the seeds of the holy tree.
