The conversation with the two old men was more about the church showing its attitude to the three major colleges that it could share information. In fact, they themselves could not provide much valuable information to St. Byrons. On the contrary, among the classics they gave to the church,
, which records some interesting information, is the most important source of information.
Therefore, the conversation between Miss Danister and her group and the [Twin Gods] believers did not last long, and they politely ended the meeting and stood up to leave.
Shade also followed Miss Daniste, thinking about Grace and Helen, whether they were interested in meeting these two. The Red Butterfly girls had quite complicated views on the [Twin Gods], and it was indeed this god.
It gave them the power to be together forever, but it was this god who led them to suppress the seal of Mount Sikal.
The conversation at St. Byrons ended relatively quickly, and the conversation between the professors at Serkses Higher Medical School and the believers of another old god had not yet ended, so Miss Denister and others had to wait.
.
The professors at the Zarath School of Literature also knew that the old ladies were of little value, so they did not rush to visit them. Instead, they chatted with the professors at St. Byrons. They had already learned in advance that the ancient seal Grimm
Among the people on the island in the middle of the lake, there are believers of the old god [Year Transformation Gate], so contacting the believers of the old god here may be able to obtain important information.
"Miss Daniste, I want to go to the bathroom."
After saying hello to the red-haired sorceress, Shade temporarily left the reception room. In order to show respect, the church did not arrange too many people in the nearby corridor, so when Shade saw that person in the corridor in front of the bathroom,
When he saw the twin old women, he thought they were lost here.
He walked up to say hello, but the two old people seemed to be waiting for him here specially. Their old faces were still smiling in the thin sunlight outside the window. They seemed to be a fallen cult, that ancient but yet
Entities transformed from dilapidated images. Looking at them, one can see that a once prosperous organization has now reached its final stages:
"Holy Sons, did you actually choose you?"
"What?"
Shade looked back behind him, and then confirmed that there was no one around, and that the old people were indeed talking to him. The word "saint" they used did not contain a gender connotation, and had a meaning such as "saint".
"Sorry, are you talking to me?"
Shade was puzzled, at least that's what he showed. The old man on the left squinted his eyes and put his stubby fingers in front of his mouth, making a silent gesture, while the old man on the right smiled kindly.
Then, with trembling hands, he took out a small box from his pocket and handed it to Shade:
"They have been taking care of the Order in secret for thousands of years, but we have given them such a heavy responsibility. It is the Order that has failed them. The ups and downs of thousands of years are not something that our generation can explain clearly. Now Hongdie finally gets
To be free, to be free from that drunken duke, is a miracle, but it's so good."
She motioned to Shade to open the red jewelry box. Shade looked left and right again to confirm that no one was nearby before he hesitated to open the lid. He saw that lying inside was a weapon with no elemental reaction, but no matter how he looked at it, he knew it was not an ordinary weapon.
Item of crimson beads.
The bead was crystal clear and had an extremely round surface. If he hadn't known that there was no silver or red version of the "Source of Chaos", Shade would have even thought that the bead was related to the sage-level relic in his hand.
"What's this?"
The two old men were silent, and when Shade pointed the round and warm red bead at the sun outside the window, in addition to seeing a scene like a swirling red mist inside the bead, he also unexpectedly saw
The pattern of a red butterfly. In the absence of light, nothing can be seen inside the beads.
"What's this?"
He asked softly in his heart, and "she" answered gently:
[A specific gift left to a specific existence, this does not belong to you.]
Shade understood something in his heart and put away the red beads. He also wanted to ask the two ordinary old men in front of him what else they knew, but they just shook their heads.
There were footsteps from the other side of the corner of the corridor, and Shade walked into the bathroom. Not long after, the ring wizards sent by the church to take care of the two old people found them and left with them.
He was very confused, but he did not tell anyone what had just happened, and soon returned to the waiting room to join Miss Danister and her party. At this time, the professors from the Zarath School of Literature had already set off to visit the two twins.
Old woman, and the meeting between Serkses Higher Medical School and other believers of the old gods has not yet ended.
The Peace Church probably also considered not to waste the professors' time, so it temporarily hired other people to meet with St. Byrons' group.
The door of the waiting room was pushed open, and Mr. Wood, the eleventh-circle warlock of the local Peace Church who was responsible for entertaining the group, walked in with Brother Fulan and introduced their status as "Edwards descendants" to the professors.
Behind Brother Fulan, who was obviously a little nervous, Iluna also walked in with a bored look. This is not the first time that St. Byrons has cooperated with the Church of the Five Gods. Of course Miss Danister knows her.
The original chosen one.
Iluna exchanged some polite words with Miss Danister, and then looked at Shade behind her.
In order to prevent Shade's identity from being exposed, Shade's face was not only covered by his own illusions at this time, but Miss Daniste also used illusions to protect him. But even so, Iluna still recognized this person at a glance.
who is it.
As a result, her boredom about the meeting disappeared immediately, and she looked much more energetic.
Most of the information about the Fulen brothers came from Shade or Megan, so Shade was not very interested in them. He just took a second look when they took out the key that had been made.
Iluna kept winking at him, so Shade once again used "going to the bathroom" as an excuse to leave the room. Miss Denister knew that Shade knew Iluna, so she helped him cover up, which also prevented
Liao Shade was considered "physically ill" because of his frequent visits to the bathroom.
"I only heard about the situation of the believers of the old god - [Yahua Gate] last night."
In a quiet part of the corridor, Iluna explained the situation quickly:
"The church used some special means, well, some unnamed relics, to investigate who originally sealed the central island of Green Lake. That happened in a very, very ancient time, and the results obtained after the investigation were very vague.
, the only ones who can be sure are the believers of the old god [Yaochangmen]. But the ones who are not sure should also be the sect of the ancient god - [Original Rift]."
Although the thirteen ancient gods left one after another at the end of the first era and the beginning of the second era, most of the religious orders of the ancient gods have always existed in other ways. For example, the origin of the Church of the Five Gods is closely related to the ancient god religion.
The "Prophet Association" is simply the [Destiny] Order with a different name. The believers of the "Father of the Infinite Tree" still exist among the ancient elves, and the ancient god "Ancient"
The Order of the God of Death split and became the current "Spiritual Order".
But no matter how much Shade thought, he could never imagine where the believers of the ancient god who symbolized the authority of "space" were hiding now.
Iluna saw Shade's doubts, which was also what confused her when she heard the news last night:
"The investigation on the Ancient God Cult is not going well. This matter can be traced back to the beginning of the Second Era. Even the current Orthodox Church cannot give an answer. But what is certain is that the problem on the island is indeed that ancient
It existed since the 2000s and could not be suppressed in the middle and late third era. This led to those unknown people working together to seal the 'other island' and use two overlapping islands to maintain the space.
balance."
"Have you, the Church of the Sun, already talked with those Old God believers?"
Iluna nodded:
"I remember that you once searched for clues and information about the old god - [Yahua Gate], so you should know that the number of followers of this god is not large. Although the one found by the church now has some information, he is also very
Limited. For example, he knows that 'fire' is the key to maintaining the seal, and he knows that Green Lake turns green intermittently, not because of algae reproduction, but because the power of another island intermittently affects reality. However, he knows the most crucial thing
The two pieces of information are actually.”
Iluna lowered her voice:
"First of all, even if you find a way to another island, you must use some kind of special means of transportation to get there. Otherwise, even if you see the 'entrance', you won't be able to access it. This is the wonder of space; secondly, no matter what, you can't reach it.
We cannot let the spatial mutation in the Green Lake area reach its final stage, otherwise the problem will become serious."
"What does the last step mean?"
Iluna frowned and replied:
"Green Lake folds from north to south, and Green Lake City and Michaela Blast Furnace City become a whole."
She paused and looked into Shade's eyes:
"Because of the existence of the national border, the developed industrial cities and poor ancient cities on both sides of the north and south are obviously close to each other, but they are the 'most distant neighbors' in the true sense. If they really folded into a whole, then it would be devastating
Yes, it may not just be these two cities. The entire world will slowly but unstoppably fold towards the Green Lake area.
The church even believes that in the sixth era, the area of the material world is far less than that recorded in the fourth and fifth era materials, because similar things have happened before. And this time, I am afraid that it is not just a reduction in the size of the world.
It’s that simple.”
