Angel still had a look of suspicion on his face, but he did not continue to ask, because the two of them were talking without end, and the expression of the shadow on the side once again revealed a look of curiosity.
He didn't want others to know about the abnormalities in his soul.
"Don't tell anyone about the legal context in my soul." Angel said to the high priest.
The high priest nodded imperceptibly.
After the selection, the high priest signaled the priest to take Yelena and leave first. After they left, he turned around and said: "Two adults, this grand ceremony has come to an end."
"However, there is still a problem." The high priest glanced at Fiona: "This time the grand ceremony has been held nearly two months in advance. The Holy Castle once said that there are distinguished guests coming this time, so it is necessary to choose the sky earlier.
Choir, go to the Holy Castle to perform. Do you need to organize the Sky Choir now to conduct rehearsals before the performance? "
Distinguished guests are here? Going to perform at the Holy Castle? Angel paused and understood the reason why the grand festival was brought forward. They should be talking about Felicia and Greia.
But it’s hard to say whether to bring the Sky Choir to Castle Black to perform... They used the Secret Treasure a few times, and now they bring the Sky Choir to Castle Black. Obviously the timing is wrong.
When Angel was having a hard time making a decision, Shadow suddenly said: "Wait a minute, I'll ask Fiona."
Angel nodded to Shadow, and Shadow took Fiona to the second floor.
"Wait a moment, they will discuss it."
The high priest naturally understood what "discuss" meant, nodded with a smile, and sat down again.
While the shadow was leaving, Angel was ready to ask something about Pocrates again.
"High Priest, have you ever seen this pattern?" Angel created a miniature illusion, with a scaly black snake wrapped around a silver-white long cone.
The high priest looked at Angel with thoughts in his eyes: "Your Excellency, have you been to Pocrates?"
In his previous conversation with Shadow, Angel had almost admitted the fact that he had been to Pocrates, so he no longer concealed it, nodded to the high priest and said, "Been there."
High Priest: "I remember when I was a child, our family lived in the attic of a single mother's house in West Polak. The mother's name was Taisha, and she had a lovely daughter, Bra. Before the war came,
We live a very happy life. Taisha likes to tell stories with Bulla, and the most frequently mentioned story is Pocrates."
The corners of the high priest's lips curled up into a slight smile, recalling the good old days.
"Taisha said that Pocrates is a holy land, where there is no war, no disease, light shines, there is the protection of Akso, and the royal family sets the tone. It is the highest and beautiful realm that humans pursue." High Priest:
"Sir, I have always been curious about what Pocrates is like. Is it really such a holy place?"
"Do you think such a beautiful utopia really exists?" Angel asked rhetorically.
The high priest lowered his head, shook his head and smiled: "If Sipolok didn't have a magic energy array, this place would probably be considered a utopia, right?"
"If it weren't for that magic energy array, you wouldn't have been able to inherit it for thousands of years without any harm." Angel said.
The high priest didn't respond. He obviously understood this.
"Let's go back to Pocrates. I don't know if it was what you said before. But it's definitely not the case now. The only description I can give is one sentence." Angel said word by word: "Who,
Go, who, die."
The high priest's expression paused, then he shook his head and laughed at himself: "Taisha died when the war began."
"Bula always believed that Pocrates was a place where she could redeem herself. After the war, she returned to Sipolak." When the high priest said this, his tone suddenly became sad: "She used her sweet smile to deceive
She left us, my mother, my sister, my brother, and my child...she deceived her and sold her to slave traders from afar. I escaped and was rescued by Lady Isabel."
"Bula said that she loves us and hopes that we love her too. As long as we can sell it for a good price, she can spend money to hire people to find Pocrates. As long as she can reach Pocrates, the beautiful holy light will shine
Everything in the world, this is the price we have to pay for loving her." The high priest told with sadness in his eyes: "I don't blame her, she and Taisha brought me the best memories when I was a child, so even if I leave
After leaving Sipolak, I still silently wish her in my heart that she can find Pocrates and fulfill her long-cherished wish."
The high priest raised his head and looked at Angel: "However, after hearing what the Lord said today, it seems that she was also wrong and has been deceived her whole life."
Angel: "Not necessarily. Maybe it was really a utopia a thousand years ago?" At least, from the current signs of Pocrates, we can see that their destruction was a thousand years ago.
High Priest: "I hope so. Having said that, the reason why I saw this emblem and guessed that you have been to Pocrates is because I overheard something when our family was sold to slave traders by Bra. Slaves
The traders also wanted to go to Pocrates. They consulted a large number of royal books and learned that the holy symbol of Pocrates is a black snake coiled on a long circular cone."
"The 'snake coiled around the scepter' that is circulated in the outside world is actually adapted from the Holy Emblem of Pocrates. But the real Holy Emblem is not a scepter, but a long circular cone."
"The name is the eternal snake emblem."
Eternal snake emblem? Angel subconsciously read this name. Somehow, he recalled in his mind the behemoth he saw in the underground water - Axl.
If Axl is the black snake on the snake emblem, what is the "annular long cone"? Why hasn't he seen it in Pocrates?
"Do you know what the long cone on this emblem represents?" Angel asked.
"Eternal life." The high priest paused: "This awl refers to the awl of eternal life."
Eternal life... Lightning seemed to flash through Angel's mind. Speaking of eternal life, the first thing he thought of was Dotolo, who has not aged for thousands of years. Is this considered immortality? But he did not find any cone of immortality on Dotolo.
ah.
When Dudolo was taken out of the coffin, he was completely naked. Except for a broken bowl he was holding in his hand, there was no other cone-shaped object.
Could it be that that broken bowl is the Cone of Eternal Life?
Angel recalled carefully that the bowl was very ordinary. He had checked it several times and found nothing out of the ordinary. But Dodolo was unusually persistent in it and kept holding it, so he simply let it go.
The bowl was not taken away.
Later, he stopped paying attention to the bowl and didn't know where the Tatolo was.
However, there is still a big gap between a bowl and a long cone. Moreover, since Axo is hovering on the long cone, it obviously knows about the long cone. Even if it is generous, it will not give away the Cone of Eternal Life, right?
Angel had various doubts in his heart, but this was not the time to investigate. He could only wait until he returned to the surface world and went to Dudolo to get a bowl.
Angel also wanted to ask specifically about the Cone of Eternal Life, when Shadow walked down from the second floor.
The shadow said to Angel: "Don't worry, I just asked Fiona. She said that it was her idea to advance the big festival and invite the Sky Choir to perform at Castle Black. Madame Butterfly didn't know about this.
, let’s just pretend it didn’t happen.”
"Your way of questioning is very unique." Angel said, looking at Fiona whose face was red, swollen and bruised, and who was once again controlled by the puppet's threads.
"Non-violence and non-cooperation save time." Shadow answered happily.
Angel refused to talk to him and said to the high priest: "Don't worry about the performance. If something happens, just expose us."
The high priest nodded and retreated from the Centennial Hall.
After the high priest left, Angel and Shadow were also preparing to return to the inner world. Shadow had not given up looking for Naga, and Angel needed to attend Felicia's appointment.
When we returned to the inner world, it happened to be almost night.
Shadow acted alone, while Angel came to the first floor hall of Castle Black.
When he arrived, Felicia was sitting at the mixing table, while Grea was sitting on the floor, cooking ingredients with one hand and stuffing them into her mouth with the other.
"Lady Greia, I wonder if Toby is now..." Angel paused just after asking half a sentence.
The look in Greya's eyes was strange and curious, as well as ignorant and shy. Angel had seen this look in the eyes of many girls, but it never appeared in Greya's eyes.
"Little brother, are you thirsty? This is for you."
Greya's reaction was also very strange. She blinked her beautiful and clear eyes and handed a glass to Angel.
There was no liquid in the glass, but there was a cloud of gas swirling like a nebula.
Angel held the glass and didn't know how to react, but Grea still looked at Angel with green eyes and motioned for him to drink it.
Angel also knew that the food wizard's ingredients were all kinds of weird, and who knew what effects he would have if he drank them. In addition, Greya's reaction was very strange, and he didn't know how to deal with it at all, so he held the glass without moving.
At this time, Felicia said: "Drink it. This is a Qi Qi vortex. After drinking it, the operating efficiency of the magic source will be slightly improved within a week. It will only be good for you, and there will be no harm."
When Angel heard what Felicia said, he could only bite his scalp and drink it.
After Angel drank it, his eyes lit up slightly.
After taking the Qi Qi Whirlpool into the mouth, it was not dry and tasteless as expected, but had a wonderful milk taste. The rich milk flavor was completely comparable to the best milk Angel ever drank.
"Such a rich milky flavor." Angel sighed with emotion, expressionless and very restrained.
Felicia glanced at him, raised her eyebrows and said: "The Qi Measurement Whirlpool has no taste. The reason why you feel the taste is because the food wizard added edible slomon, which directly arouses your personal taste. According to personal taste
Different taste preferences lead to different tastes of Qi Qi Whirlpool.”
"The Qi Whirlpool is tasteless when I drink it, but the taste when my sister drinks it is like alcohol." Greya narrowed her eyes with a smile: "It turns out that little brother likes to drink milk."
Angel's face turned dark. The food made by the Food Wizard was indeed a scam. He forced a smile, and now he could not hide his taste even if he denied it, so he could only face it with a smile.
"Do you want to eat this?" Greya held up a plate of round lumps that looked like metal and happily wanted to continue sharing.
