Whispering Poems.

Chapter 1777 Everyone's Preparations

After bidding farewell to the doctor, Xia De met Priest August who had not yet left downstairs, and then left in a carriage with the priest.

Priest Augustus deliberately waited for Shad, and of course he had something to say:

"Wednesday, you used the ring of thorns I gave you?"

"Yes, I used it to use the power lent to me by others. There are already many cracks in the ring of thorns, and it is estimated that it will be damaged next time it is used again."

Xia De lamented the effect of that halo:
"It really helped me. Otherwise, I really couldn't think of how to solve the problem about the skull. I don't have a clue yet. Priest, can't you make alchemy props that can track bones from a long distance?"

"Young man, don't think of alchemy as a panacea."

The priest smiled and shook his head:

"You don't need to be too urgent about this matter. Whether we can find it actually doesn't have a big impact on us. In short, if I need to go there, I can leave at any time. If you don't want the church to know where I went, even I can ask the church to reimburse me for train tickets and accommodation expenses. The young people in charge of finances in the church are all brought out by me back then."

At least while Dr. Schneider was in Green Lake, Shad didn't want Priest Augustus to go there.But judging from the current situation, Xia De really needs to rely on the strength of the entire team this time.

The carriage first sent the priest to the Church of Dawn, and then brought Xia De home.

When I went upstairs, I found that the house was quite lively.Dorothy, Luvia and even Iluna are here, the purple-eyed girl is preparing tea in the kitchen, and Iluna is excitedly talking to Dorothy about the serial that was published in the "Steam Bird Daily" this week Details of the story:

"Is this going to be a five or six long series? This time the story is so interesting. The missing pet dog and the strange cat must have important stories. If it's just up, down, down It’s a pity that it’s over in three chapters.”

Dorothy's most recent serial, "Cats and Dogs and the Detective," was based on Shade's experiences in Randall's Valley.The demon summoned by Stone Oxenfurt in order to deal with the Stone Heart Demon, incarnated as a housekeeper and maid, and gave him important clues about the final puzzle after being liberated by Shad.After Dorothy heard the story, she cleverly changed the identities of the two into cat and dog. So far, this story has been published twice in newspapers and has received wide acclaim.

Seeing Xia De came back, the girls all got up to say hello.Miss Writer saw that Xia De and Iluna had something very important to discuss, so she said goodbye temporarily, went to the publishing house to deal with the matter, and agreed to come back after more than an hour.

After all, today is Saturday, she will not miss the date.

"What is this painting?"

When Xia De went downstairs to send Dorothy back, Iluna on the sofa curiously pointed to the picture frame covered by black cloth on the wall and asked Xia De.With a casual finger, Xia De opened the canvas to the sides, revealing the colorful underwater mermaid oil painting.

Iluna was shocked at once:

"I've never seen such a beautiful painting. I'm not saying I don't have a level of art appreciation, but this painting... no one will deny its artistic level. I have never seen such a work of art. Even Shade The statue of the severed arm that was once given to Princess Adelina Cavendish, also... Is this also Shade's work?"

She looked at Xia De in shock, Xia De immediately denied:
"I'm not at that level, and I'm not that unlucky."

"Xia De said that this painting should not be seen more."

Luvia, who came with a saucer, reminded that she had never seen "Desire", and it was impossible for Xia De to describe it to her in detail, so she only knew the general idea:
"But Xia De said that you have seen the existence depicted in the painting."

"By the Pantanal."

Xia De also reminded.

Iluna thought for a while, she was shocked at first, and then showed a dissatisfied expression, obviously remembering that the woman's head in the water made a very wrong evaluation of her.Although "simple" is a neutral term with a positive meaning, she doesn't want to be judged as pure when she is close to 17 years old, especially when Xia De was there:
"Actually, this painting is not very beautiful."

she said softly again.

Luvia laughed, and Xia De also looked up at the painting. The painting has been hanging here for half a week, and there is indeed nothing unusual, but he will not let down his vigilance. He has always been elusive about the strange idea of ​​"desire". well.

Leaving Mia in the living room, Xia De went to the bedroom to change clothes before sitting down and talking about things.

"The church has given me orders. I'm leaving on Monday, but I won't be in Green Lake next week."

Iluna shook her head:

"The church arranged for me to go back to the Holy See for half a week of training."

"Training what?"

Xia De asked curiously, but Luvia had some guesses:

"A way to fight against space power?"

Iluna nodded:

"Yes, that island is very dangerous, but as a chosen one, it is impossible not to land on the island. In order to prevent accidents, I need to conduct some safety training, at least to ensure that there is a chance to fight back when facing a chaotic space."

This is not difficult for her, the power of "Balance" can maintain the stability of the space, although the release effect is not as good as Shade's "Space Stability Aura" which is specially designed to deal with unstable spaces, but a little training can also allow Iluna to master self-protection Methods.

"Although it's not the first time I've been on a business trip, it's the beginning of June and I'm afraid I won't be back until the end of the month at least."

Iluna said so, and glanced at the two of them quietly.Luvia gave Xia De a look, of course Xia De understood what she meant:
"If you haven't come back on your birthday, I will celebrate for you instead of Luvia."

"I didn't mean birthday."

"I have prepared the present."

The purple-eyed girl said, Xia De also nodded:
"I want to prepare some unexpected gifts this time. Your birthday is very important."

He has already looked for a gift, but he is not sure if he can get it, after all, the gift is still in the Fifth Epoch.

Iluna expressed her thanks with some embarrassment, and Luvia took out the small bag that Priest Augustus gave her at the group study meeting just now:
"It just so happens that Iluna is here, and I got enough coins. Before Iluna leaves, we need to clarify some things. For example, who is the traitor of the Prophet Association who claims to be the 'Space Chosen One'?" Not who he said he was."

The pouch at the mouth of the bundle was opened, and inside were four coins.Three of them were identical, brand new coins Shad had never seen before.

The coin was quite big, half the size of a palm, made of brass, but rather thin.Shade thought that the front was a pattern of a house, and the back was all text:

【A house is not a home, but there is no home without a house. 】

"Poet-level relic [Homeland Coin], a very simple and straightforward name. Its function is to throw the coin into the lake or river at midnight on the night when the yellow moon is full among the three moons, and it will be legal within a month. to get a house all to myself.”

Luvia introduced that both Xia De and Iluna were quite interested in this, and the female fortune-teller said:
"It may be a simple straw house, or it may be an expensive real estate like No. [-] Saint Teresa Square, which most people can't afford in their lifetime. Poet-level relics, the degree of danger is not high, just houses obtained with this kind of coins, some It is easy to provoke unclean things."

She gave an example:
"For example, if there are humanoid relics visiting the block, there is a high probability that they will go straight to the house obtained with this coin. Although the house is very important, no one should take such a risk."

"No, I think there should be someone. I know the last coin."

The stranger withdrew his nostalgia for his hometown, and twisted the remaining coin in the bag:

"A clerk-level relic [The Soul Coin of the Fanatic] (Chapter 796), this coin can be used to trade with demons or some humanoid relics, but once you do so, you will be stained with sins that cannot be washed away. Unexpectedly, Priest Augustus They actually found such coins for us."

"The priest is a wonderful man."

Luvia said, and asked Xia De to take out the only remaining [Ghost Iron Coin]:

"In this way, in addition to the [Seer's Silver Coin] that we don't want to consume, we can consume five coins. I want to try a super-standard divination, Shad, Iluna, I need you all Come help me."

"What do you want to fortune?"

Shad asked.

"I still can't directly divination the identity of the chosen one, but as my level increases, the vague information about the chosen one can already be touched. Since the chosen one in this space has the ability of 'unity of many into one' characteristics, then I will come to divination, how many people are there in those 'union' components, and who are there."

They went to Room [-] on the third floor together. This room, which has not been used so far, is very empty and very suitable for holding ceremonies.

Theoretically speaking, Luvia's special divination method cannot be enhanced in any way.Even the relics that can assist in divination, such as the [Silver Coin of the Fortune Teller] and the [Obsidian Pendulum] in her hand, have no effect on it at all.

Both Shad and Iluna vaguely knew that Luvia's special divination was related to her powerful power in the past.Therefore, in order to enhance this power, one can only use great power beyond the ordinary.

Just like the power of the chosen one.

According to Luvia's instructions, Xia De drew the sun, moon and stars on the floor that he and Miss Dennist had been investigating.Luvia vaguely felt that this ritual formation had a lot of background, so she decided to give it a try.

As for Iluna, she summoned the life ring on her back and transformed the brass life ring into a dark golden scale.Then he carefully held his balance and handed it to Luvia.
