After shaking hands with the two of them respectively, Miss Bayas seemed to be relieved, and said with a sigh:
"Well, you guys have regained my trust, but this information bothers me even more. I don't understand. Why hasn't the church told me about this?"
"Because it's meaningless to tell you, and it will make you think wildly. What's more, even the Orthodox Church will not know more about "Whispering Verses" than me."
Miss Anat said she looked especially good smiling tonight, which Shad attributed to the color of her pretty red lipstick. It's a pity that he can only tell that it's red, and can't distinguish it in detail, but that red is really beautiful.
"The church's attitude towards the chosen ones is still unclear, because they don't know what it means. Iluna, cooperating with us will not harm the interests of the church. After all, we are all... "
Miss Anat looked at the young detective who was pouring tea, and the latter immediately added:
"Positive characters, we are all positive characters in the story."
"I know this. I really believe in my ability to judge people. You are all good people, and you are helping me. I would also like to be friends with you. It's just..."
Rapunzel leaned back on the sofa, staring at the ceiling. This action will reveal the fair neck, and Xia De immediately looks away after taking a look to avoid being misunderstood.
""Whispering Verses" and the Chosen One, it turns out that this is the same thing, so many things can be explained. Heh, it sounds like I am the Chosen Child of Destiny in those knight novels... ..The epic of the sixth era... Detective, Miss Anat, do you think I am really qualified to be the kind of person who can be recorded in legends?"
After the excitement of learning the truth ended, the young girl became confused again.
"Of course, you are meant to be."
This was Miss Anat's opinion, and she seemed sure of it.
"No matter what, we will always be by your side."
Xia De said that he understood the other party's mood very well. The feeling of knowing that he is special, but worried that he will not be able to play the role well, is very similar to his feeling of knowing that he is a foreigner, but worried that he will not be able to adapt to the new life.
Because of this empathy, he said more:
"Since we have decided to help you, we will accompany you to the end, to the end."
The two sides are honest with each other, which can be regarded as solving the last hidden danger in the cooperation. Although the unexpected meeting and honesty made Xia De almost stabbed by Miss Anat and was shot by Miss Bayas' [Sunshine Gun], the whole process was smoother than Xia De thought.
After all, he had gained enough favor from Miss Bayas before that. From this point of view, Miss Anat's plan was successfully realized in Xia De.
After confirming the relationship of mutual trust between the two parties, the reason why the three of them appeared in this banquet was discussed.
It goes without saying why Shade came here. Miss Anat even teased the term "Radgerd's Hamilton", and Miss Bayas congratulated softly.
As for Miss Anat and Miss Bayas, they didn't have invitation letters, but they managed to sneak in.
They came for a [relic], and that relic could pay for Miss Anat's accurate divination, so as to use divination to obtain the ritual needs of Miss Bayas to become the truly chosen one.
"Actually, I've always been curious about what the price of your so-called divination is. Can the price be paid with [relics]?"
Before Xia De broke in just now, the two ladies were also preparing to discuss this issue, and now the topic can continue.
"This can be regarded as my special talent. I can accurately predict the future by paying a price. Now I can tell you that there are three ways to pay the price. I pay part of my soul, pay a specific relic, or..."
She shook her head and did not continue:
"Look, this is the relic."
Miss Anat took out a white paper bag with spells written all over it. The general meanings of these words in different eras can be interpreted as "suppression of curses", "purification" and "sacredness".
There was a small thing wrapped in the paper bag, and when it was removed, it turned out to be a gold coin, which was three times the diameter of a penny coin. This gold coin should be considered an antique, and its rusty appearance is full of sense of history.
After the gold coin appeared, the voice in her head immediately reminded Xia De that this was the item she felt had a strong whispering element. And that paper bag can actually block the perception of long-distance whispering elements. Before Xia De broke into the room just now, it probably happened to be the moment when the paper bag was opened.
There is a half-circle of text on the edge of the back. Shade deciphered the text after asking Miss Anat to confirm that the characteristics of the gold coin were not triggered by spells:
[Greedy exchange souls for gold coins. 】
"This is a sage-level (level 2) relic [Pirate Blood Money], to be precise, it is part of it. The records of [Pirate Blood Money] can be traced back to the early days of the Sixth Epoch, when a group of pirates landed on an unnamed island after a storm , and found a treasure in it. There is a box of coins in the treasure, and this is one of them. According to the church's after-the-fact investigation, the total number of coins is between 1025 and 1034. 27 pirates divided up the box of gold coins and spent them In the pier pubs, brothels and casinos after docking. All the pirates who spent the blood money committed suicide by throwing themselves into the sea at midnight on the third day after spending the blood money. Their souls were absorbed by the blood money, and their bodies turned into undead .”
Miss Anat said that Miss Bayas looked the same as Shad, and she just knew what it was:
"Is that all?"
she asked, slipping on gloves and taking the rusted gold coin from Shad.
"Of course it's not just that. The undead who committed suicide by throwing themselves into the sea will return to the shore after death and kill the people who traded blood money with them, but they will not take the blood money with them. When the blood money is traded again, they will Will go ashore again, and together with the second person who used the coin and threw himself into the sea to become a dead soul, hunt down the second person who got blood money through trading... and so on and on. This means that every Behind a piece of blood money, there is a group of undead waiting to be hunted down. When an individual uses multiple blood money at the same time, it will only be affected by the first one, and the other blood money will take effect in the hands of the next user."
Miss Anat took the coin from Miss Bayas, flipping it with her fingers easily:
"Of course, the undead hunters in the sea cannot leave the ocean too far. Therefore, if people who get blood money through trading live inland, they will be induced by the power of the relic to go to the seaside. There is even a saying that holding blood money People with money are led to the sea by the power of fate."
"This is the power of the sage-level (level 2) relic?"
Xia De couldn't help sighing that more than 1,000 coins represented more than 1,000 undead teams, and this was the first sage-level relic he really came into contact with.
"The sage level is the dangerous level of all blood money. If there is only one coin, it is probably only equivalent to the keeper level (level 3)."
Miss Anat said.
"Then what about containment? As long as they are contained by the church, wouldn't those undead in the sea lose their meaning?"
asked Miss Bayas.
"It's not that easy, otherwise it wouldn't be rated as a sage."
Miss Anat shook her head:
“[Pirate’s Blood Money] itself is deceptive. Although you can now see that the front and back of this gold coin are different, this is the activated form. I use it, and it will become like this. Once I go to If the sea dies unexpectedly, the blood money will look like an ordinary old coin. In this era, it will become an old gold pound. In its inactive state, it has almost no whispering elements. Even if the ring warlock knows the characteristics of this relic, It is hard to find the difference in your own wallet. In the 15 centuries since the first discovery, the Church has housed a total of…”
"You used it?"
Xia De interrupted Miss Anat's speech very impolitely:
"Miss Anat, are you sure you know what you are going to do?"
Miss Bayas also said worriedly:
"That's why we had a quarrel tonight. I know that Miss Anat has her own secrets. It's understandable that there is a price to be paid for accurate divination, but I've never heard that relics can also be used as a price."
"Don't worry, I activated this blood money two days ago. Before that, it has stayed with me for three months. I trade with myself, so my identity is the one being traded, Instead of a trader, in this way, I will not die for three days, but wait for me to go to the seaside and be killed by the army of undead. Only by activating it can I use it as a price to consume the relic for divination."
Shad also thinks this approach is too dangerous:
"The price you need for accurate divination is a relic like blood money?"
"The 'paying relic~www.mtlnovel.com~ in the three ways is just a form of price, and any relic of coin type is fine. Coin itself is the most complicated symbol in occultism, and it can even represent together with words Civilization. [Whispers] of relics, [Enlightenment] of coins, what I need is not coins, but elements of [Whispers] and [Enlightenment] that exist harmoniously in this special item, only in coins and more special types of relics, There is such power."
She was playing with the gold coin in her hand, Xia De thought about this statement, and Miss Bayas, who was born in the church, looked at Miss Anat seriously:
"Miss Anat, do you know how strange this practice is? I've heard of people who were able to absorb relics and make them part of themselves, but those people are definitely out of control. You do it like throwing powder bombs by the fire just as dangerous."
"I'm not absorbing them, I'm paying for them."
Miss Anat said, with a confident expression on her face:
"This is not the first time I have done this. Three years ago, I got 6 blood money and activated them separately when I needed to do divination. The first five had to be consumed in a previous accident (Note), this One is the last one in my hand."
