"When Sister Devlin and I went to visit the Lady of the Lake, the nun said that the Pantanal was more dangerous than Fort Midhill."
Shade supported Luvia and looked at Iluna:
"Although you know that it may be too late to stop their plan in advance at the base camp of the Voodoo Society, you still have to inform the church about this matter. At least prepare in advance to deal with the unsealing of the evil things, and know who our opponent is.
What are the weaknesses of the thing, and how can it be sealed again? There must be a reason why Lykins Priscia chose the Pantanal as the location of the ceremony. His ritual is very likely to cause evil things to return to the material world."
Iluna nodded again:
"Be careful, the epic begins again."
Iluna left very quickly. The steam airship dispatched by the church quietly transported her to the south on Wednesday night. And it was not just Princess Margaret, Old John and Iluna who left the local area.
, on Wednesday, Luvia originally wanted to inquire about the movements of the Truth Society again, but on Thursday she told Shade that the Truth Society seemed to be preparing to withdraw from the local area, and Miss Pavo was no longer known as "Witt".
The identity of "Miss" appeared.
The city that became lively due to Princess Margaret's visit seemed to calm down after the princess left. As the end of the year approaches, everyone has things to deal with, and no one realizes what will happen further south.
disaster.
Everyone is probably still on the road now. After Shade went to Fort Midhill to inform Granny Cassandra and Sister Devlin of the news, he spent the entire Thursday dealing with his affairs in Tobesk.
, so that you can concentrate later on to complete the chosen person’s tasks.
First of all, he naturally contacted his boss, Director Anlos, and delivered the note with the bomb information to MI6.
The handwriting on this note cannot be seen to be written by Sha De at all, and the paper was torn from a notebook that Sha De never used. It is impossible to trace him because of this. And there is no knowledge of this note and Sha De.
Director Anlos, who is responsible for the relationship, was ecstatic:
"Very good, Shade, you have overfulfilled your task. I heard that your relationship with Princess Margaret has also made good progress. It's a pity. If you can be transferred to Willendale City to work, it will be like disappearing.
Miss Brown, then..."
He was probably thinking of Miss Carina and did not continue his thoughts. It was impossible for Shad to be transferred to Willendale, the capital of Carsonlik. The Duchess who was "resting in bed" was the first
Don't agree.
The second thing that I continue to deal with is the [Origin Knowledge] that was finally sent to Tobesk from the headquarters of the Prophet Association.
The Prophet Association sent a letter to Shad on Wednesday evening, asking him to pick up the card on Thursday. So after meeting Director Anlos in the early morning, Shad went there in an excited mood.
Society of Prophets.
President Stan of the local branch and Shad's friend Vice President Mark received Shad on the third floor. In addition, there was also a priest from the Dawn Church. After all, it seemed that it was the Dawn Church that facilitated the deal.
.
"Good morning, Mr. Hamilton."
After Shade sat down on the sofa in President Stan's office, the two parties did not waste much time chatting. Vice President Mark pushed the mahogany box that had been placed on the table to Shade.
The mahogany box is particularly elegant, with the Ouroboros logo on the lid. The four surrounding sides are engraved with patterns of the sun, moon and stars, which is a work of art in itself.
Shade opened the box with excitement, and then officially saw [Creation·Knowledge].
The front of the card is still only white, black and cold colors near the two colors. Three light balls of different sizes are located in the center of the card. The largest of the three light balls is three times the size of the smallest one, forming a triangle with each other.
The structures are arranged and connected by white light traces.
The white color of the light ball itself is not uniform. The brightest part inside then gradually dims towards the surroundings, making it appear particularly three-dimensional. The strange shape composed of three light balls itself seems to comply with strange rules, as if it is some kind of natural
A pattern that should have existed since the birth of the world.
The background of the card face is not pure darkness, but is dotted with ambiguous white light spots in the black, just like the silent black starry sky. Just by looking at it, you can feel the card face.
In the lonely atmosphere.
If you look carefully, you can see a hidden pattern in the black color of the card. It is a figure with only the upper body exposed, outlined by white light spots on the card. It must have a strong sense of space and imagination.
This pattern can only be seen with strength. The palm made of light points is holding up the pattern of three light balls. However, no matter what, it is impossible to know what the specific image of the hidden figure is.
The upper right corner of the front is marked with the number 1, and the upper left corner is the small sign of "Flower". Between the two, in the center of the upper front of the card, there is a black vertical line drawn in a white circle, which is "Foundation".
” series of logos.
At the bottom of the card, there is a slight blank space, where dense words are written:
[If this card is the first card, it will invalidate any effect of a special card that the opponent has already produced; if this card is the second card, it can be adjusted between the numbers 1, 2, and 3;
If this card is the third card, you can choose whether to force the opponent's total points to be reduced by 3; if this card is the fourth card, if the card is busted in this round, you can redraw only one card to replace the first card.
However, special rules cannot be used; if this card is the fifth card or later, you will directly win regardless of any circumstances.】
This is the card with the longest special rules text that Shade has ever seen so far, but the rules of this card itself are not complicated at all. This is a brand new rule system among the special rules that he has seen, that is, visual
The number of cards drawn when the card is drawn is used to activate the effect.
Although the first four effects are not as good as those of other Founding Series cards, the fifth effect is also difficult to achieve. However, this card can activate its effects in almost any situation, and its effects are quite complete.
From this aspect, [Origination·Knowledge] plays a very strong role in the Rhodes game, just like other [Origination] series.
"This card is very interesting. The more cards you draw, the greater the effect this card will have when it appears - only the accumulation of knowledge can create wisdom and strength."
Shade commented on the rules and looked at the cards in his hand with a smile:
"Flower 1, Creation·Knowledge. Yes, I am very satisfied."
President Stan also smiled and nodded:
"Yes, and you need to carefully control where the 'knowledge' appears. Don't be greedy. This requires your wisdom... The appraisal certificate is under the box, Mr. Hamilton, according to the contract signed before,
This card belongs to you until you pass away, but you cannot give it away, trade it, or use it to gamble with others."
He reminded him uneasily that this card has been kept at the headquarters of the Prophet Association since the creation of the Rhodes card game. If the Five Gods Church had not jointly sent a letter requesting assistance this time, Shade would have been there anyway.
Can't get it.
Shade nodded:
"Of course, I understand... Speaking of which, aren't you going to send someone to take that blue crystal away now?"
He asked knowingly. President Stan looked sideways at the old priest with five rings. The latter coughed, so President Stan gave the answer:
"Yes, take it now. Do you take it with you?"
"Yes, right here, I knew I had the cards and you would ask for the gem."
Shade took out the jewelry box from his coat pocket, and after opening it, there lay one of the two [Wise Man's Pyroxene] in his hand.
"Then please take it."
"We are not taking it away. Please excerpt this and sign your name. It will be considered a delivery record."
President Stan handed Shad a piece of letter paper. The content on it was roughly that Shad Suellen Hamilton voluntarily transferred the [Wise Man's Pyroxene] to Iluna Emilia Bayas.
Any pyroxene can only be given away once. It seems that even though the church does not know who the chosen one is, it still has its own plans. The reason why Shade gave it to the chosen one is because he is worried about the pyroxene.
taken away by others.
"It turns out that this kind of stone has this name. It's really interesting... Speaking of which, Miss Bayas is a good friend of mine. What is her relationship with the Prophet's Association?"
Shade asked curiously, and President Stan, the best fortune teller in Tobesk, said with an unchanged expression:
"The Prophet Association commissioned the Blackstone Security Company to escort this crystal to the headquarters of the Principality of Lagson. You should know that Miss Bayas is going on a long trip recently."
"Yes, it turns out she is going to such a far away place. I hope she can come back before the end of the year."
Today is Thursday, the 19th day of the Sleeping Moon. There is only the last week and a half left before the official end of the universal calendar year 1853. Foreigners are about to spend their first year in this world.
Having obtained [Original Knowledge] made Shade feel very good, and corresponding to his mood, on Thursday night, the sunny weather that he had been waiting for for a whole week finally appeared.
Shade plans to use the resonance ritual of the core spirit rune to find Huang Yue, the "bard" he met when defeating the demon of proliferating desire. Of course, this is a very dangerous act, because no one knows what he will do.
It resonated with something dangerous. Therefore, Shade specially found Luvia and came to his home to help him perform the ceremony.
The ceremony took place in the attic of the home, next to the long table where the "Fire of the Sun" and "Water of the Moon" rituals were arranged.
When the three-color moonlight in the clear night sky shone on the ceremonial array on the wooden floor, Shade, who had drank the magic potion "Inspiration Potion" and a small amount of "Moonlight Water" in advance, sat on the floor with his upper body naked.
－－－－－－Digression－－－－－
ps: The two crystals in Shade's hand are for capturing Jack the Thief and defeating the devil. The one crystal in Iluna's hand comes from the dice game. In addition, the bard's test has not been completed, and this is also one.
Here is a spoiler: During the final battle in this volume, Shade will also have five crystals in his hand (including the one given to Iluna in this chapter), so how will the missing crystals be obtained?
