Chapter 2521 New Relic
In short, no matter how unhappy Carina was, life had to go on. The Duchess seemed to have nothing to do in the morning, but she was still dragged away by Leicia before she left, asking her not to do anything that would damage the reputation of the Cavendish family in broad daylight.
She usually does this kind of thing at night.
Luvia also left with them. Today was Wednesday, and she also had to go to work at the Prophet's Association. So, the originally lively home was now left with only Shade and Mia.
Tifa had already cleaned up the breakfast dishes with the maids before leaving, and Shade didn't have any housework to do. So after returning to the second floor from the hallway, he went to Room 2, the bedroom where Miss Felena lived these days.
The bedroom has been tidied up, with the quilt spread flat on the bed and the desk bathed in the morning sun.
In the past two days, Xia De has never taken the initiative to enter this room, and the room now looks as if it has never been used.
He sat down on the bed facing the window, petted the cat for a while and then stood up. He put Mia on the windowsill to let her bask in the sun, and then he lifted the quilt and planned to fold it and put it in the closet.
Miss Felina must have used thaumaturgy to clean it, and the quilt and pillows are very new.
[Don't you want to keep this quilt? ]
"She" asked in Xiade's ear with a smile, but Xiade ignored her. He just folded the quilt and picked up the pillow to put them together when a letter appeared under the pillow.
"Oh?"
There was nothing written on the white envelope. When the envelope was opened, there was only a folded piece of letter paper inside. There was no text on the white letter paper either, but there was a clear red lip print on the top of the folded piece of paper.
The lines on his lips were very clear, and the light red color made Xia De not sure how to describe it. He only knew that he was very happy at the moment. After putting the letter away, he went to the window and opened it, letting the warm summer breeze blow into the room.
It is a rare good day in Tobesk today, just as good as Shad's mood at the moment.
After writing a letter to Miss Danister and informing her of the departure of Miss Feliana and Fiona, Shad took Mia out.
Miss Danister will probably talk to him about the "teacher clue" soon, and although Shad has listened to the two witches talk about their visit experience, this matter should be more interesting from Miss Danister's perspective.
As for going out with Mia, it was certainly not because Shade and the cat couldn't stand the empty and "lonely" atmosphere of the house, but because he had things to do.
Soon they took a carriage to Old John's pawn shop. As the door bell rang, the old man who was reading a newspaper behind the counter raised his head and smiled at Shade:
"Look who this is. I didn't expect a busy man to come to my place."
"The matter of Yuewan is over. What else do I need to do?"
Xia De also said with a smile, put the cat on the counter, and sighed as he looked at the familiar furnishings of the pawn shop:
"Father John, I really envy you for having such a leisurely life."
A few weeks ago, in order to find the [Star Sword Stone], Shad asked Old John for help, and thus learned that the relic was in the hands of Mr. Chekov, who ran a used bookstore in Yuewan City, so Old John knew that Shad was active in Yuewan.
"I really don't know whether you are praising me or mocking me."
The old man put down the newspaper and prepared hot tea for Xia De, but he did not ask anything about Yuewan or even the war of gods:
"Are you buying intelligence or relics this time?"
"Relics. I've said before that I've been buying special coins and relics that can absorb energy, spirits, and other entities or non-entities and pass them on to the user. Do you have any now?"
The [Profane Cross] that had been with Shade for more than half a year had already been consumed in Moon Bay. It was given to him by Grandma Cassandra. Although it was unlikely that he would encounter another evil god right away, he couldn't wait until the moment came to prepare for it.
Old John also remembered Xia De's purchase commission:
"Of course I have the goods. Don't underestimate my channels. However, this time the relics are only at the poet level. Although they meet your requirements, I don't know if you are satisfied."
He quickly took out the relic. This time the relic was also not big, or to put it another way, if you didn't lower your head to look, it would be difficult to even see the thin silver needle embedded in the alloy.
"The containment condition is to place it in this special iron alloy. Poet-level relic [Benevolent Doctor's Injection Needle], yes, this is not a sewing needle but a syringe needle.
When using it, you need to pierce one end into your body, and then use it to pierce the body of another person. Remember, don't get the order wrong, otherwise it won't be you sucking others, but others will suck you. "
The old man signaled Xia De to take out the thin silver needle and have a look:
"Of course, since it is only a poet-level relic, its use is very limited. The hardness of this needle is very low, and ordinary [Petrified Skin] can easily defend against its attack. Moreover, it can only absorb spirits, and the conversion efficiency is also shockingly low.
Because the spirit itself is a collection of energy, information and various things, it is immeasurable and unobservable. Therefore, I cannot give you the exact conversion efficiency, but it should be between one-tenth and one-fifteenth.
In other words, if you use this to absorb the spirits of others, and absorb the spirits that can release ten fireballs, you can almost get enough spirits to release one fireball."
"How is the absorption rate?"
Xia De asked again, and Old John shook his head regretfully:
"The longer you pierce it, the more spiritual energy it absorbs. This means that you need to keep piercing it to do this. Its absorption efficiency is extremely slow, and it's hard to describe in detail. In short, this is not a relic for you to use in actual combat."
"So its greatest function is actually to share spirits between companions when they are resting, right?"
For example, in special areas such as the "Gravel Sand Sea" where it is difficult to restore spirit, Shade can use this relic to share his abundant spirit with his companions. Of course, if you can carry the relic, it is more efficient to use the [Perfume Bottle of Desire].
"Yes, that's what it does. The low conversion and absorption efficiencies are indeed disadvantages, but at least as a poet-level relic, it is safe enough. But I must remind you that if this relic is used on a ring sorcerer or an ordinary person who is extremely short of spirit, then what it absorbs is life force."
“What are the negative attributes?”
Xia De was very interested in this relic.
"Share extreme emotions and curses related to the flesh. Note that it is not shared, but shared. After all, it is a poet level, so the side effects are not serious."
"Does this relic satisfy my needs?"
Xia De asked in his heart.
【Can. 】
So Xia De carefully took the thin silver needle out of the alloy. If the relic fell on the ground, it would be very troublesome to find it only by eyes. And no matter how thin the relic was, when Xia De's fingers touched it, he still touched a very tiny carving on the surface of the silver needle.
[Noble people know how to share, but they should also be wary of human greed. ]
"Dad John, make an offer. For a low-level relic like this, cash is usually enough, right?"
"Of course. But this relic can share spirits, so it is useful to a certain extent. So the price is a bit high, 13 pounds."
This time, Xia De didn't even bargain. After putting the relics back, he went straight to his wallet.
But the old man behind the counter told him not to worry. He smiled and said:
"I also have a deal to make with you. If this deal is reached, maybe I will be the one to give you the money in the end."
"Why, Father John, what do you want to buy from me? Let me make it clear in advance that Mia is not for sale."
Xia De stroked the cat and joked. The old man behind the counter also smiled and shook his head:
"I know you were in Yuewan some time ago, so I want to buy some information about Yuewan."
"What kind of information is it?"
Shade asked again, so Old John put the cup in front of him and thought for a moment:
"I wonder if the two distinguished guests who came from afar are still with us?"
"Already gone back."
Old John nodded in surprise. He was not surprised that they had left, but that Shade spoke so readily:
"So, can the 'hero' who invited three unexpected guests to Moon Bay last Sunday still invite unexpected guests to our place at any time like he did then?"
Shade thought for a moment:
"I don't know much, but I don't think so. After all, what happened in Yuewan was an accident. If the gods can show up, there's no need to invite those dangerous guests."
Old John nodded in understanding and praised Xia De:
"I'm not against the hero using this method. Although I'm old, I'm a very open-minded person. As long as he can control the power, then any power can be used. The purpose of the existence of the monastery is to pass on civilization, and we don't mind using any means to achieve this."
"But don't everyone else think so?"
Shade asked with a smile.
"Don't worry about that. As long as the hero is strong enough and can solve such big troubles every time, people will understand even if he invites more guests next time. Besides, do you think that after what happened, who in the material world would dare to mess with him casually?"
The old man who belonged to the Guiding Light Hermitage looked at Shade:
"You were probably too busy entertaining your duke at home some time ago and didn't have time to go to the black market to inquire about the latest situation. Now people have recognized that the 'God Summoner' is the most powerful ring sorcerer in the material world of this era. He is proficient in the power of the moon, time and summoning. There are even rumors that the Chosen One of Light and Justice who has never appeared is actually his subordinate."
Xia De smiled and did not comment on this. He would not talk about the coroner of Yuewan with anyone.
