Chapter 2706 The Third Paradox Insect
The twisted tree hole has been cut off, but the matter is not over yet, because the soul dedicated by York Bronte is still in the coffin.
Because he didn’t know whether the coffin lid would be broken directly after pulling out the sword, Shade let the sword stay where it was for the time being, and then blew the butterfly calling flute.
Amidst the melodious flute sound, accompanied by snowflakes and green spots in the sky, crimson butterflies came out of nowhere. The butterfly turned into two torrents and intertwined with each other. After turning clockwise and counterclockwise around Shade’s waist, it turned into Grace and Helen in front of him.
“Good afternoon, sir!”
The girls in white skirts and black skirts greeted each other with a smile, and then said to the other two:
“Good afternoon, Miss Bayas~Good afternoon, Miss Emilia Siam Nord of the Yuexi Clan.”
Emilia had met the Red Butterfly Twins during the Battle of Moon Bay, so they knew each other. Iluna nodded in response, and the blond elf didn’t even bother to refute this time.
“Sir, I haven’t seen you in two weeks. Are things so busy here in Vista Grove?”
Helen held Shade’s hand, and Shade hugged the two sisters apologetically:
“I have been really busy with various things recently. Mother-in-law Cassandra should have told you about things here.”
“Yes, yes, you are always busy. So why did you come to us this time?”
“This coffin.”
He briefly explained the origin of the coffin, and hoped that the two sisters could stabilize the spatial turbulence in it so that Shade could find the part of the soul that Bronte gave.
It wasn’t difficult, because “death” and “space” were the easiest things for the sisters to deal with, but they checked it out and gave them good news and bad news.
“The good news is, if you’re just looking for a broken soul, it’s easy to find.”
As her sister Grace spoke, she let a red butterfly on her fingertips fly into the coffin.
“The bad news is that although the craftsmanship of this coffin is very sophisticated, because it took too long, and more than one person tried to violently break the remaining seal on it, the situation of this thing is very complicated now, and we can’t Fixed it in minutes.”
Helen in the black dress said, and at this time the red butterfly had flown out of the coffin, followed by an extremely illusory transparent figure. His appearance is very similar to York Bronte, or this is the difference between a person’s middle age and his youth.
“Found it!”
Grace said with a smile, while Helen continued to add:
“Sir, I’m afraid we have to take this coffin back to Fort Rice for repairs. It will take about half a week, but we can also easily dispose of the other souls remaining in it and let them stay in the narrow room of life and death.”
“Okay, then I’m sorry to bother you. I’ve been too busy to see you lately. I’m really sorry.”
Nothing went wrong this time. The fragment of Theodore Bronte’s soul indeed contained the third Paradox Worm.
This time there was no Sister Devlin demanding that the bugs must be burned, and the Chosen Ones of Space and the Chosen Ones of Balance were both present. Except for the chocobos who were a little frightened, the Paradox Worm was solved. No danger was encountered.
When Shade tried to use [Ocarina of Time] to perform the “Stability Principle of Ancient Elves”, he found that the damage effect of thaumaturgy was even more obvious than that of [Stand of Yectrasil]. But if you are just using this thaumaturgy to stabilize time, the staff will be more effective.
In short, although the third paradox insect also reached the second growth stage, it was still successfully defeated, and its carapace was recovered by the elf girl to make the paradox insect potion.
The coffin was brought back to Middleburg by Grace and Helen. It will be repaired and given to Shade next week. In this way, Shade will have a precious space alchemy item. Bronte’s incomplete soul spontaneously absorbed it after touching the frozen soul core. This can be regarded as realizing the integrity of the soul.
Shad originally wanted to send the soul back to Tobesk, but now that the soul is complete, it might be possible to read the memory, so he temporarily gave the soul to the elf girl for safekeeping until tomorrow morning He comes to get it again.
In this way, Shade ended his adventure in the Vista Woods this Saturday. After saying goodbye to Amelia who did not want to admit that she was Amelia, he invited Grace and Helen to his home. Of course, the two sisters happily agreed to eat.
The group of four returned to St. Teresa Square. Because they spent a lot of time dealing with the coffins in the woods, it was already half past six in the evening when they walked out of the basement of their home.
It is Saturday night, so Dorothy is here as well, in addition to Luvia, who has been staying recently. Luvia seemed to have guessed that it was definitely not just Iluna who came back with Shad, so she ordered more food at the restaurant outside.
The family of six enjoyed dinner together in the restaurant. After dinner, while the writer went to wash the dishes and Iluna explained the evening’s events to the fortune teller, the Hongdie sisters took Shade and ran to the bedroom. Li Wen stayed for a while before leaving.
Of course, Shade felt that this was Luvia and Dorothy giving time to them.
But Shade didn’t just need to go to class that night. After dinner, he sent Iluna back to the apartment and stopped by Dawn Church on the way back.
The priest did not dare to let Shade take out his things in the church, so he took him to the potion workshop in the basement of the church facing the street:
“Eyeball? It looks like the right eye. Oh, let me tell you why the skeleton can actually move this time. You know, the eyes in occultism have a different meaning from other parts. This is also true for angel remains. Same.”
The priest took the eyeball in his hand and pulled out the wooden stake. The power of the eyeball was still stable, so he smiled and said to Shade:
“If someone has the courage to implant this eyeball into his body like Joey Barton, then this will become the most terrifying magic eye in history. Seeing who dies is just a basic ability.”
“Priest, don’t be ridiculous, I don’t believe anyone can afford such a heavy death curse.
However, are there other remains that are not skeletal? I always thought angel remains were just bones. ”
The priest smiled and shook his head:
“Except for the left eye, everything else is just bones.”
He looked at the right eye placed in his palm again:
“Don’t you want to repair an item that was shattered by the power of this right eye? Now that you have got the right eye back, I can make targeted preparations. This requires the power of the relic, In addition, give me three days to prepare the potion, and I will give you the results in three days.”
The last activation of the time key to the “Black Sand Pier” will not be until next Monday, so even a three-day delay is not much time. Then Shade told the priest about the final fate of the Dead Apostles. The priest was not surprised that Shade was able to defeat the opponent. He only gave his thoughts after hearing him say that the opponent’s soul was frozen:
“It is not easy to retrieve the memory of such a pure soul core. Since you said you have friends who are very proficient in soul power, I don’t need to help you. But you plan to dedicate that soul to the old gods. It’s a very smart approach. This kind of special soul may still cause trouble even after death.
Dead disciples don’t appear easily. Once they appear, it’s a big deal every time. You are very lucky to be able to solve it so easily. ”
“It’s not very easy. Well, then, priest, I’ll wait for your good news. But now that you have this eyeball, will you gain interesting powers related to the eye? For example, you can see someone’s death date and so on. ”
The old priest laughed again:
“Detective, seeing death coming is not a very powerful skill. What is really powerful is seeing the end. After all, death is sometimes not the end, but it is the real end. Once you pass it, there is really no turning back. ”
When Shade returned home, Luvia had already gone to the third floor for stargazing, leaving time and space to Dorothy. So the “course” continued this week, but before class, “Teacher Dorothy” mentioned the topic of “Eternal Fire Seal”:
“Where do you want to leave that mark on me?”
She smiled and asked Shade, who was petting the cat, because Shade had not been in contact with chocobos today, and the cautious cat did not smell the scent of other creatures, so he behaved quite well tonight, accepting Shade’s The tail was wagging while being stroked.
“Right arm.”
Xia De said without hesitation:
“I can’t control where you and Lesia will transfer the mark afterwards, but at least I have to express my attitude.”
The blond girl smiled happily and looked forward to next week’s “Red Butterfly Day” when the two become one and Shade saw the two symmetrical moon seals.
Not many important things were said in the group meeting that Shade missed today, so after talking about Moon Seal, they started this course directly.
The study of the fairy tale “Crystal Light” has been going on for more than half a month. In addition to learning the thaumaturgy [Crystal Touch] and allowing Shade to understand multiple versions of the story, Dorothy even convinced Vanessa helped get the Golden Dawn Opera Company, which was performing in Tobesk, to rehearse this relatively unpopular play in preparation for its performance on Red Butterfly Day next Thursday.
As for today, Dorothy brought something really cool:
“Look~”
She put the suitcase she brought on the table and opened it, and inside was a series of crystal products. Crystal dolls, crystal animals, crystal flower specimens, a total of eight pieces.
“Dorothy, you don’t want to tell me that these are crystals transformed by [Crystal Touch], do you?”
Shadow asked in surprise, Dorothy nodded:
“I know you can guess it. Yes, I said that in the early Sixth Age, when order was relatively chaotic, many criminals used this thaumaturgy to turn living people or rare animals into crystals and collect them.
Because these unique crystals are not affected by the passage of time and are almost impossible to restore, the criminals’ crystal collections have been passed down to this day. ”
