Chapter 2929: Rebirth Ceremony (※)
Seeing Xia De say this, the Countess of Yuewan reminded him:
"But there are still some unresolved issues. Who is the water in the five elements of earth, wind, water and fire? And two of the seven candidates are still missing. Didn't you say that Emilia was only the second candidate?"
"If I were to talk about doubts, there are actually many. For example, I have always suspected that Flora's missing uncle might jump out in the end and become the most powerful enemy."
Shade said with a smile, and Miss Owl immediately had a question mark on her head. But after the joke, Shade also talked about his real thoughts:
"The Bennet family will definitely have a candidate, but I'm not sure if it's the most critical first candidate. As for the other questions, don't worry, the answers will come to me before I find them."
"So who are you going to deal with first? The dragon beast? The caretaker of the paradox worm? Or the mysterious Bennett?"
Xiwei also asked Xia De, and Xia De took his hand away from the cat:
"There's no rush for the Bennett matter. I still need to confirm some things. Luvia, you and Bella need to confirm the bloodlines of the four Bennett children as soon as possible."
If all the Bennets were dealt with at once, and then it was discovered that the person whose debt was supposed to be collected was already dead, then Desire's mission would not be completed. Shad did not want to go to death to collect debts.
"As for the Paradox Bug Guardian, although we are now certain that we can defeat it, I am worried that once we really start, hundreds of bugs will rush out. The hermits of the [Forest Hermit Group] have said that there are tens of thousands of bugs sleeping here. Miss Danister, you go and communicate with the three major colleges and the church to prepare for a big battle. Iluna, the final battle with the Guardian will still require your power of balance to suppress it. Now, let's deal with the dragon beast first."
"Are we going to destroy Jindel's tomb in the dragon beast's lair? If we do, we need to prepare in advance to prevent the curse in Flora from reappearing."
Bella reminded him, but Shade shook his head:
"I'm going to go to the woods and see the grave with my own eyes. If there's really no other way, I'll destroy the grave."
In other words, if there was a way, Xia De still didn't want to do such an immoral thing, and the girls all thought that this was indeed what Xia De would choose to do.
Then came the series of battles, and everyone on the ship became busy. As for the task of taking Shade to the dragon beast's lair, it was done by Sylvia and Flora, because they were the only ones who had the least time.
However, before leaving, Sylvia still had to explain to Dorothy about the semi-permanent teleportation array, and Flora had to arrange for Miss Bell to continue to hand over information with the church, so they asked Shad to wait for a moment.
After all, it was early in the morning and there was no rush. So after everyone had dispersed, Xia De went to confirm the harvest of the time key.
First and foremost, it was the [Leaf of Eternal Youth] that Shade was holding at the moment. Before this, for the "Proof of Time" ritual, he had given both leaves to the Witch Council, leaving only the one he obtained after destroying the tree hole. With this one, the number of leaves in his hand returned to two.
Of course, the leaves themselves are valuable, but what is more important is the knowledge they contain.
Under the gaze of Mia on the table, Shade placed the leaf in front of his right eye. Then the golden light flowed along the fine veins of the leaf into Shade's eyes, and "a piece of real information - an additional core spirit rune" was known to Shade.
This is information, not power, so it does not allow Xia De to directly obtain the third core spirit rune. He took the leaf away and closed his eyes to digest it for a moment before he fully understood the contents. Just like Xia De's initial guess, this is indeed a method for obtaining the core spirit rune only for himself. After all, the direction of this method is too clear:
[Fully aware of its origin, re-hold the "Rebirth Ceremony" at the place of birth, and obtain the following components:
The blood of the person you admire is like silver, not red;
The mark of the guardian, the supreme power;
The roots of the man who taught, the curse erodes the remains;
The finger bones of the astrologer guide the destiny;
The hair of the man chasing the moon, a devout faith;
The existence of the sacrificed person is proof of replacement.
After completing the ritual, any Spirit Rune you have obtained can be converted into a Core Spirit Rune. The type of Spirit Rune element is determined by the original Spirit Rune type. 】
Although the final "result" was clearly stated, overall, Xia De didn't understand a word of the process in between.
The general meaning should be to know "something", then go to "some place" to hold "some ceremony", and six items are needed. In other words, there are nine puzzles in this "riddle" waiting for Shade to solve, which is a bit too exaggerated.
The "she" beside him chuckled. Xia De touched the cat lying on the table. Although he didn't know the answers to some of the "puzzles", he instinctively guessed:
"The blood of the person you admire is like silver but not red - is this the Philosopher's Stone?"
【why? 】
"I feel like it's the Philosopher's Stone, but it shouldn't be an ordinary Philosopher's Stone. The roots of the Teacher, the Cursed Remains - are these the roots of the Cursed Tree that Helena Carter turned into after her death?"
【why? 】
"After all, roots and curses, that's all I can think of, and she did teach me. The finger bones of the astrologer, the finger bones of the astrologer Euclid?"
【why? 】
"This person from a hundred years ago is so mysterious. I think of him and Helena Carter for the same reason: they are both suspected to have died in the Moon Tower on Mount Karas. Didn't I realize a long time ago that this place has a very important relationship with me?"
The "she" beside my ear continued to smile gently and asked in a light tone:
[So, the ceremony took place at the collapsed tower on Mount Karas, right?]
Although Xia De's eyes were looking at the void in front of him, he actually didn't care about anything in his vision. The maids were cleaning the banquet hall and didn't disturb him. He placed his right hand on the table and tapped the table repeatedly:
"It is very likely that it is there, but why are these people who died in Mount Karas related to my extra core spirit rune? The rest is the hair of the Moon Chaser. I suddenly thought of Miss Bister, but what does this have to do with her? I probably only thought of her because I just parted with her.
Miss Bist lives in the Fifth Age, and she is not a special person like Miss Elither. The existence of the sacrificed person is the most difficult to understand. And the mark of the guardian, the Supreme, um. I don’t understand. ”
"Meow~"
Mia left her paw print on the back of Xiade's hand on the table, but the force was very light, as if she was stepping on his hand for fun.
"The last part is 'fully aware of one's own origins'. Isn't this the path to becoming a demigod that you mentioned before?"
【So do you know your origin? 】
"I know I'm here because of Luvia, but it's my soul."
He pulled out the hand that was being stepped on by Mia and pressed it against his chest:
"This body is definitely not brought from my hometown. I am also sure that the results of the background check conducted by the academy on me are also wrong. Therefore, the answer to where this body came from is probably in that collapsed tower."
This time "she" didn't say anything, but just smiled gently, so Xia De summed it up:
"There are nine puzzles, of which five, 'Origin', 'Location', 'Blood of Admiration', 'Root of Teaching', and 'Bone of Astrology', can only be solved by going to that tower. As for 'Ritual of Rebirth', 'Seal of Protection', 'Hair of Chasing the Moon', and 'Existence of Sacrifice', I still need to understand them."
He thought about it and shook his head:
"But I always feel that all of this is related to the collapsed Moon Tower."
[This doesn’t seem to be something that can be resolved in a short period of time.]
"Yes, if it is really solved, I feel like I might become a demigod in an instant."
Shade said this, and he was not joking. The tower must be closely related to his appearance. Although he started this journey from the second-floor bedroom of No. 1853 St. Teresa Square in Tobesk on the "Silver Moon Shining Day" in the summer of , the time and place when he arrived in this world were definitely not then and there.
All signs indicate that the answer is most likely the spring of 1853, and is related to the fall of the tower.
But it seems that he doesn't need to worry about this matter. Even if the third core spirit rune has not been obtained yet, he can still prepare the sublimation words of the higher ring immediately after he is promoted to the ninth ring.
He just needed to determine what core spirit rune he wanted, then obtain that spirit rune before being promoted to the thirteenth ring, and then transform it into a core in the end.
Therefore, Xia De had a strong premonition that the acquisition of the third core spirit rune would probably not happen in the near future, or even this year. It would be a long time in the future. He just hoped that he could get an answer before the matter "ended".
Thinking in his heart, he reached into his pocket and took out the souvenir of this time adventure, which was the silver crescent-shaped pendant that Miss Bister threw to him at the end. He looked at the pendant and gently rubbed it with his fingertips:
"My soul came because of the impossible miracle caused by Luvia, but who did my body come from?"
【Maybe it's Mia. 】
she said with a smile.
"Meow~"
The cat squatted on the table obediently and looked up at Xia De, hoping that Xia De would put his hand back as soon as possible.
"Yes, maybe. 'Re-holding' the rebirth ceremony. Is it a ceremony to celebrate the rebirth, or a ceremony to give the rebirth?"
