Chapter 1846 The Secret of the Ritual
"In the worst case scenario, at least the witch can be saved, which is not a bad result. I am in good condition today, so what should we continue to divine?"
Luvia asked the two of them, and Iluna thought about it:
"There are still five keys left of the thirteen keys, and Laplace Howard's entire plan is also more important. The less important thing is where is the soul of Maria Edwards floating in the Green Lake area."
"There is also the 'Edwards Den Magic'. I doubt that this is actually the name given by the soothsayer for the ceremony of the chosen ones. Finally, it is the way to enter another island."
Xia De added that the three of them discussed it and finally decided to divine the whereabouts of the remaining five keys first. The news from Maria Edwards is not necessarily important. Shade feels that many clues can be investigated on the method of entering the island, and the Prophet Association is also working hard for this. As for the divine ascension technique and the diviner's plan, it is possible that too many coins will be consumed because it involves the chosen one.
So one of the brand new coins brought by Iluna was thrown into the sky and scattered into ashes before falling back in front of Luvia. The girl with purple eyes opened her eyes, with a thoughtful look on her face:
"It's very interesting. Three of the remaining five keys have been fully formed. One is in the hands of [Tyranny Club] and the other is in the hands of [Dragon Feast Order]. If there are no accidents, this should refer to that The two Edwards cultists finally took shape. In the hands of the "Truth Society", they learned through divination that it was the soul of the last gravekeeper of the small town cemetery after they landed on the island. Got it from a deal.”
This method is consistent with Megan and Shad exchanging keys from the blacksmith and the mineralogist.
"Where are the two that haven't taken shape yet?"
"One clue is on the island and one is outside the island. Specifically, the one on the island is not inside the island, but under the waters on the edge of the island covered in white fog, in the former town of Green Lake. The clues outside the island are hidden in the boatman's soul, and are in the hands of the descendants of the last mayor of Green Lake Town."
"Wait a minute."
Eluna asked Xiang De in confusion:
“Isn’t the mayor of Green Lake Town a member of the Edwards family?”
"No, the mayor and the lord are not the same concept. However, more than a hundred years have passed since the town of Green Lake was abandoned. Who was the mayor at that time? I am afraid that the fifth and sixth generations of Edwards None of them know."
"It doesn't matter, I divined everything. Including the position of the boatman's body underwater, I divined everything."
Luvia smiled and said:
"This kind of divination to find something, especially the divination that can delineate the area with detailed information, is the simplest. The underwater clues still require Shade to go there personally. As for the descendants of the mayor, Now he lives in the City of Glass on the other side of the lake. I will write down the specific address now, but I can only divine the clues in his hands. We have to find out what it is."
The first [Mechanical Blessing] solved all the key problems, and Luvia picked up the second one:
"Do you need to continue divination on the relationship between the **** door and Edwardsden's magic?"
Eluna motioned to Shade to make up his mind, and Shade thought about it:
"Well, let's try and see if we can get the answer."
A coin was tossed into the sky, but to no avail. The three of them discussed again, and Luvia threw a [Mechanical Blessing] and a [Ghost Iron Coin] into the sky at the same time.
The two coins scattered ashes in the air, and Luvia opened her eyes and met the probing gazes of Shade and Iluna;
"The results are not very clear, but what is certain is that the Space Chosen Ceremony is only part of Edwardsden's magic. This is not only related to family integration, but also to the creation of space required by the ceremony. And in the Chosen In addition to the ritual of the chosen one, there are other secrets in Edwardsden's magic. He collected the flesh and blood of the descendants of Green Lake Town and made thirteen keys related to it. Becoming the Chosen One was only part of his plan. He was pursuing other things. ."
After three special fortune-tellings in succession, her face turned a little pale. Shade asked her to take a rest first, while Iluna poured her a cup of hot tea. Luvia didn't force it, and held the tea cup to sort out her thoughts:
"If you want to see Laplace Klein Howard, you must pass through the **** door. Although the door appears in Edwards' dreams, the door itself is on another island. Edwards Through the symbolic act of 'going through the door', the power awakened in the bloodline, like the nutrients absorbed by the root system, will be copied and transferred to the fortune teller at the top of the root system, and will be truly realized after the so-called 'banquet' The fusion of soul and flesh. And the thirteen keys, as Shade guessed, symbolize the inferior version of the ceremony of the thirteen chosen ones in "The Whispering Canto". The process of finding the keys is the process of finding the chosen ones. , represents the history and inheritance of the Edwards family, the accumulation of two phases, and the thirteen keys that open the door are equivalent to the last door opened by the chosen ones: the Edwards opened the final door."
This passage is a bit complicated, and the ritual knowledge involved is also quite abstract. This is only the part that Luvia can see. The fortune tellers on the island should be more prepared:
"I don't know what the final purpose of Edwards Den's magic is. I have never seen such a ritual."
"In other words, the stronger the Edwards are, the stronger the final diviner will be. And by collecting these keys, is it actually equivalent to helping him in his ritual?"
Iluna frowned and concluded, Luvia shook her head:
"The ceremony is a ceremony of unity. It does not mean that if we don't collect the keys, the ceremony cannot be carried out. Laplace Howard has many ways to get those keys and open the door himself. And once we can gather them in advance, If you have enough thirteen keys, you can land on the island in advance before the opponent's ceremony is launched, and see him through that door before he can perform the ceremony."
Xia De finally understood the most important and final task at hand:
"Collect the thirteen keys as soon as possible, then lead people to the island, defeat or contain Laplace Klein Howard."
Luvia nodded slightly:
"The final message of this divination: Once the ritual is launched, all Edwards will instantly appear on another foggy island and be guided to the **** door. This is hidden in their blood The power of space is passed down from generation to generation and cannot be erased like the bloodline prophecy."
There are only two coins left on the table. Iluna left the [Home Coin] that can be exchanged for a house and picked up the last [Mechanical Blessing]:
"Now that the goal has been clarified, we can ignore the other details of Edwards Den's magic for the time being. Just like when we fought against the 'Silver Eyed One' and [Mercury Blood], for the last divination, please do your best. What dangers are there around and in the hands of the possible fortune teller that we have to face?"
This is a danger that may be encountered in divination in the future. Although the demon has been eradicated, the "ancestor" has more than just demons around him.
Luvia also understood what Iluna meant, but she had already performed divination three times in a row, so both Shade and Iluna asked her to take a rest. The three of them started chatting over cups of tea. On this rainy Monday morning, under the light of the gas lamp in the hotel room, they talked to each other about their thoughts and plans.
Eluna likes this kind of atmosphere very much. Chatting in a warm room on a rainy day is a joy, not to mention having Shade and Luvia by her side. She complained to Luvia that Green Lake City's environment was not as good as Tobesk's, and talked to Shad about whether Green Lake would turn green as rumored, and finally recommended Luvia to try Green Lake City's specialty wildberry jam. , the jam made from blueberries and cranberries produced on the shores of Green Lake is only sold locally, but the taste is quite good.
Luvia smiled and listened to her words, and the topic she raised was about Shade's several visits to the island, the scenery he saw on the island, and the topography of the island.
As for Shad, in addition to mentioning that the [Witch Council] was preparing supplies for the Chosen Ceremony for Rusty Edwards and Durut Giles, he also mentioned that he would wait until the incident in the Green Lake area is over. , he would go to the town where Miss Mia Gold’s family is located no matter what:
"I'm really curious about that lady."
He held the lively cat to prevent it from putting its paws into his teacup:
"Due to my serious illness in the spring, and the fact that Miss Gold herself was too busy to entertain me, the original spring trip was cancelled. I have to go anyway this time, from Midhill It won’t take long to set off from Fort to the small town on the east coast of the Old World.”
The chat lasted for an hour, during which Luvia claimed many times that she had rested, but Shade and Iluna still did not allow her to toss the coin. It was not until 10:30 in the morning that the fourth coin finally flew high into the sky.
Just as the coin fell and quickly scattered into ashes, the purple-eyed girl suddenly groaned in pain, and then blood overflowed from the corner of her mouth:
"It's okay, I'm okay. I've seen too much."
Shade hurriedly supported her, while Iluna handed her his handkerchief and put his hand with the warm sun's rays on her back. This was a healing thaumaturgy.
However, Luvia's condition was not as bad as they thought. It was not that there was something wrong with the divination itself, but that she saw something very dangerous:
"This decisive battle is definitely more dangerous and troublesome than the one in the Randall Valley. No matter how powerful the contaminated guardian in the Randall Valley was, no matter how powerful he was, he was essentially just one individual. But now, There are at least five things beyond the Thirteen Rings around Laplace Klein Howard."
