Chapter 1892 Skull and Invitation Letter

Xia De did not intend to prevent the opponent from possessing an army of undead, after all, even if there was an army of ghouls and water ghosts, the church would stop them.

"But now I can't give it to you, it has other functions for me."

The corpse waiter came with a tray, and on that tray was a third of the skull.The skeleton looked very different from a human skull, at least twice the size of a normal human head.However, because it is incomplete, Shade cannot be sure what it will be like when it is complete.

"I know this doesn't belong to me, so please allow me to return it to you after the Chosen One ceremony."

The fortune-teller continued, Xia De didn't try to grab it, after all the priest also said that everything at present is an illusion, he only thought that he had eaten hallucinogenic mushrooms:

"Do you know who this bone should belong to?"

Xia De asked, the fortune teller shook his head slightly:

"I placed some bones in my daughter's ossuary, hoping that she could sleep peacefully. Presumably, it was the bone fragments and finger bones taken away by the tomb robbers that attracted your friend. The secret of this world is really There are too many, and even I don't know everything. I think the closest living person to omniscience is the mad Sir Lykins Priscia."

He stopped talking suddenly, turned and looked to the side.The corpses dancing to the sound of music gradually gave way to a straight road. At the end of the road, the figure of Priest Augustus with his hands behind his back appeared.

Xia De guessed that the priest should not be hallucinating, otherwise the serious expression on the face of the fortune teller in front of him would be too similar.

"This skull does not belong to me, please allow me to return it later."

So he said to Priest Augustus, who shook his head rather gravely:

"Although you are very polite, this is not your thing."

A huge shadow of wings appeared on the wall behind him, and the broken wings were just as amazing even if they were just shadows.The light of the crystal chandelier gradually decreased until it turned dark green. At the same time, discordant notes appeared in the melodious music, and it gradually became eerie.

The dancing corpses all stopped and turned to look at their lord with Priest Augustus.And this scene actually made Xia De a little suspicious, who is the villain here.

The fortune teller wearing a monocle smiled, and took out a small book the size of a palm from his pocket.The book has a brown hard cover. With a glimpse, Xia De saw the Ouroboros mark representing "Ancient God-Mr. Huan" on the front of the book, and the skeleton representing "Ancient God-Ancient Death" on the back Sickle mark.

"Angel-level relic ["Soul Story Book"]."

Xia De said softly, and the book, which was about the size of a card, had already floated in front of Laplace Howard.

It wasn't a simple levitation, but several transparent hands held it up in front of the Seer, and opened the corresponding pages for him.

After some imperceptible lights flickered, all the corpses in the banquet hall fell down.The dark green light returned to normal, and there were only three people standing in the resplendent hall.

Shad looked to Priest Augustus for his opinion.The old priest frowned slightly, and after thinking about it, he made a compromise:

"Return half first. When you hold a family banquet on the island, I will go to the island myself and ask for the other part."

"It's reasonable. I'm honored to invite you to my territory to watch the final ceremony."

The priest waved his hand, and the one-third of the skull, which should not be split by any external force, was split into two halves again.The gray fog hit, covering the scene in front of him, and when the gray fog disappeared, the surroundings returned to the scene outside the rural village, under the oak tree at the crossroads.

The moon in the night sky is still so charming, being blown by the night wind with heat, Xia De really has the feeling of breaking away from the illusion.

The three ghoul brothers who were hung up had been burned to black charcoal at this time, and they would be revived on another island soon.

Priest Augustus held the one-sixth skull in his hand and looked up at the tree, wondering what he was thinking.As for the doctor, he looked around suspiciously:

"Is this the real world now?"

"Yes doctor, you can ask me a question that only we know."

"Well, when we first met last spring, what was the first thing we said?"

[Ask about the time. 】

"Ask the time. And it's not spring, it's summer."

The doctor then relaxed:

"What did you see just now? I came to a cemetery and was besieged by a large group of ghouls. Although the priest said that those were hallucinations, the pain was very real. Fortunately, the hallucinations are over, otherwise I really want to Let's fight back. Have you got the priest's promotion materials?"

"Half done."

A tired look appeared on the old priest's face, and he carefully put the one-sixth skull into his robe:

"I'm still old after all. I thought I could succeed. It seems that when the church finally lands on the island, I have to go get the rest myself."

Dr. Schneider nodded, and didn't ask what happened just now:

"This is normal. If such a precious thing is obtained without taking risks, I would think it might be a trap. You should remember the efforts I made for that material last summer. Priest, don't worry, When the time comes, I will go with you, since I know where the materials are, I will be able to get them after all."

The priest nodded, and Xia De greeted the two to leave:

"Tonight's operation can be regarded as half the success. Priests and doctors, after returning, please prepare for the final landing on the island. It should be soon, and it will not take more than a week."

Neither the priest nor the doctor had any doubts about this. Although they didn't bring it up, they both understood what the final battle in the Green Lake area meant.The doctor wanted to help, to find some sense of participation for himself, to test his newfound strength along the way, and the priest was for the remaining bones.

Everyone has their own business, and everyone is making final preparations.

It was already very late when the three of them returned to the Green Lake Hotel that night. They didn't have supper, but went directly to rest.But Xia De didn't go back to his room, but knocked on Dorothy's door and brought back Mia who had been waiting for him to come home.

It was late at night, and because Dorothy was still in a special period, she didn't stay with Xia De overnight. Xia De returned home with the cat.

Sleeping at home is always very pleasant. After waking up early on Saturday morning, looking at the familiar ceiling, Xia De felt completely refreshed.

I went downstairs to get goat milk and newspapers, and took the cat to the Green Lake Hotel.Priest Augustus and Dr. Schneider still got up very early, and they had breakfast while discussing the news with Shad. Such an early morning was really good.

As for Miss Writer, she usually doesn't get up until after 08:30, so Xia De thought about going out after breakfast with her.Today is the day when the Prophet Association conducts the long-prepared large-scale divination ceremony, and the contemporary president of the Prophet Association will also appear, but this has nothing to do with Shad, he only needs to wait for the result of the divination from Iluna. good.

He originally thought about going to try to see the contents of the witch's task list today, trying to analyze what the big witch of time has spied from the future, and then participated in the extremely high-level banquet at night.But he didn't wait for Dorothy to go downstairs to have breakfast, but he waited for Megan who came in a hurry.

As soon as the brown-haired witch entered the door and saw Xia De sitting by the wall, at the table where the two first met, she immediately walked over and hugged him.

Xia De didn't know why, so after comforting her softly, he took the cat that was still eating, and went to the basement with Megan.

Today's basement of the hotel has been remodeled, and the ritual core array shining with dazzling blue light ensures that every corner of the building can be protected by the power of witches.Those red, golden, black and brown hairs that are barely visible to the naked eye are the "spiritual wires" or "ether wires" that witches weave with their own hair.

This is the most suitable material for witches' secret arts. Although witches can control the growth of their own hair, it is still extremely extravagant to contribute so much hair like this time.

Because this place is very important, all the big witches have drawn a small number of people to take turns guarding the basement.Because it is a shift system, the girls will not be sleepy even if they keep watch at night.Seeing Xia De and the Great Witch come in, they consciously put down the novels, Rhodes cards and checkers in their hands, pretending to be busy and started the daily maintenance work.

"What's wrong? Am I not here?"

Xia De asked softly to the girl in front of her. On Megan's face, which looked much younger than Miss Galina, there was a mixture of worry and fear.It's hard to imagine that a witch of her strength would have such an expression:

"I had a dream last night. In the dream, I unknowingly entered the family mansion on the island again. I woke up before pushing the door and entering, and wanted to turn around and leave, but Sloss Edwards walked out of the mansion."

That was the second son of the second generation, and also Megan's great-grandfather, who was transformed into a weird monster made of tentacles because he was afraid of death.

"He gave me an invitation letter, inviting me to a family banquet where six generations of the family could reunite."

She held Xia De's arm tightly with both hands, and stared at Xia De's eyes with her mouth pursed:

"When I woke up this morning, the two invitation letters were already in my hands."

She took out one of the invitation letters and handed it to Xia De, which was a folded and bronzing invitation letter.The cover has a family crest resembling the black spiral symbol of "Return to One", and below it is written "Forever Noble Edwards Family" in cursive letters. The background is the scenery of Green Lake Town and the nearly transparent Edwards family of six generations. The root family tree composed of 21 people.
