Miss Carina asked while looking at Shad who was helping Tifa and the others collect broken ice and rocks.
Hearing this question, almost all the girls in the basement laughed. Miss Sylvia smiled and shook her head:
"How could Vanessa tell me such a private matter?" Just as Shade secretly breathed a sigh of relief, she added:
"But you should also know about Shade's illness last week, right? I asked about what happened before, and I found out that in order for Shade's perfume bottles to be filled up, they..."
She leaned close to the red-haired witch's ear and whispered a few words, while Miss Carina's eyes towards Shade gradually changed: "Really, even Bernice wants to compete with me..." "
She secretly made up her mind.
Shade did not stay in the witch's manor for too long. After making sure that the witches were making their own preparations, he set off again to the manor where the professors of St. Byrons stayed.
The old gatekeeper at the gate of the manor had probably heard Miss Danister talk about Shade, so he didn't stop him from entering this time. Miss Danister happened to be at the manor at this time. When she heard that Shade was coming, she received him in the study.
The decoration level of this manor belonging to the college is obviously not as good as that of the witch's manor, but the decoration of the study room is particularly good. The four walls are all covered with bookshelves, and the highest part of the bookshelves reaches directly to the roof, so that no trace of the walls can be seen at all. Because gas lamps could not be placed on the walls, light was provided by crystal chandeliers overhead.
"I have received your letter."
Shade mentioned the information to his teacher:
"Miss Denister, in your opinion, how were the original founders most likely to obtain the current location of the school?"
He posed the question to the sorceress of the Thirteenth Ring, and Miss Danister thought for a while and gave an answer very similar to Shade's guess:
"Treasures of the First Era. Gods rarely have any thoughts about mortal things. After all, the gods of the old days are fundamentally different from us mortals. What seems precious to us is not the same as the dirt on the ground in the eyes of God. no difference."
Although she didn't know what Shade wanted to do, she still didn't hesitate to give her thoughts:
"In fact, not only when it was first established, but even now, the school still contains some treasures related to the First Era. That is the most precious secret of St. Byrons, but I bet that Lotherth School of Literature and Arthur There should be a similar collection at the University of Science and Technology of Xexus."
"Can you tell me what the school's treasure is?" Shade was very interested in this.
"It's not an extraordinary item, but it's something that can be preserved to this day." Miss Danister counted in detail:
"There are some things that are not suitable for you to know yet, but the most important thing to us is a stone tablet that records the story of the oldest moon god [Silver Moon Sage]. Even though I am thirteen rings, I still cannot complete it. Retelling this story. I can only say that the general idea of the story is that the ancient god came to the material world in the form of a saint, and together with the sun god [the supreme Sunbinder], defined day and night."
Shade showed an astonished expression:
"We actually have such a great thing." Miss Danister said with a smile:
"When you reach the twelfth ring, I can take you to see that stone slab. But not yet, you can't bear the weight of that knowledge."
The two were talking when they suddenly heard a knock on the door outside the study. "whats the matter?"
Then Miss Denister asked.
"Professor, something happened in the city. The church sent someone to deliver a letter. If you have time, please go and have a look as soon as possible." "There is something happening in the city? Can't they solve it on their own?"
The sorceress stood up immediately: "Where?"
"Randall Valley Masons."
The young voice outside the door said that in addition to the two college professors accompanying Miss Danister, she also brought some assistants to help with writing notes and running errands.
"I'll go."
As she said this, she was about to ask Shade
Saying goodbye, Shade also stood up: "I'll go with you. It happens that there is nothing to do in the afternoon." Miss Danister hesitated:
"If it's not very dangerous, the church won't let me go... I can take you with me, but you have to promise to always be by my side, and if I ask you to leave, you have to leave."
"Of course, I never go to dangerous places."
Shade nodded in agreement, so after the two of them met with the other two accompanying Professor Gao Huan, the group quickly took a carriage and rushed to the Masons' Association in the old city.
Last week, when Iluna and Iluna tracked down the little girl selling flowers, they also came to the Mason Street where the Masons Association is located, but because the masons on the Mason Street were fighting with each other at that time, the two of them did not go in.
And when I came here again on this gloomy Monday afternoon, the entire street was blocked off by the police. Huge thin wooden boards were erected at the street entrance to prevent anyone from peeking into the street. And when Shade got off the carriage with Miss Danister at the street corner, he felt a strong element of blasphemy.
The professors also felt the undisguised power, and when they wanted to check the situation further, the old priest who came to greet them had already walked over.
The gray-haired Professor Lemar from the seminary asked, "What's going on now?"
"Please follow me in and take a look. The professors from Zarath and Serkses have also just arrived. The situation is very complicated."
The street entrance is guarded by the local police, and behind the wooden boards that block the view are guarded by the church's magicians. Entering the street from between the wooden boards, the group immediately saw the lifelike statues standing on the street.
But then, including Shade, they immediately realized that this was definitely not a statue, but a living person. A rough count shows that there are hundreds of stone statues that can be seen on the streets alone.
"A living person polluted by the crazy land?"
Professor Mason from the School of Ancient Literature asked softly, reaching out to touch the nearest statue that looked like a businessman. The statue kept raising its right leg and looked to the left. There was no look of panic in its eyes. There seemed to be no warning for what happened.
"No, it's not permanent petrification. It's similar to malicious transformation."
Professor Mason made an accurate judgment, and the old priest who led the way said worriedly:
"It is true that they are not permanently petrified. This is similar to a curse. But if they are not restored to flesh and blood as soon as possible, even if they are successfully treated, they will only be rescued as a group of soulless vegetative people."
"When did this happen?"
Shade asked, and the old priest of Sun Church thought for a moment:
"Around 2:30 in the afternoon, the Peace Church's church was also in the old city, so the fluctuation of the blasphemy element was detected almost immediately, and the news was quickly received."
"The Peace Church planted spies in the Masons' Association for the sake of peace between the association and the royal family?" Miss Danist asked, but the old priest shook his head seriously:
"At that time, there were two very special people in the association. Out of obligation, the local church sent people to provide long-distance protection at the street intersection. This stabilized the situation immediately and did not cause panic in the city. Those two noble people The nobles have also been petrified, and this is the crux of the problem."
"I don't know much about the local area. Which two nobles are they?"
Miss Denister asked again as they passed the stone statues on the street and approached the Masons' Guild. "Prince William and Princess Margaret."
"What?!"
Shade suddenly looked up in the direction of the Masons' Association, but no one paid attention to his expression at this time. Miss Denister frowned:
"Don't let anything happen to these two, otherwise the entire order of Kasonrik will change. At this time, this is absolutely impossible... Why don't you change them back first?"
"No, the stone statues of the descendants of the Anjou family are now inside the Masons' Association, but... please come with me." The group quickly arrived at the door of the Masons' Association and noticed that a group of people had gathered here. Large groups of people.
In addition to the representatives of the Five Gods Church, Xerxes
Professors from the Higher School of Medicine and the Zalas School of Letters have also arrived. Among them, Serkses Medical College, just like the rumors heard by Miss Elf Amelia, sent the provost of the Thirteen Rings, Professor Miller Stewart, known as the "Iron Punisher".
After a brief greeting, Miss Danister looked up at the upper floors of the building:
"What's on the third floor?"
She asked, and Mr. Granger, the "Earth Shaker" of the Church of the Sun, said in a deep voice:
"Similar to last Tuesday night, it was the stone statue brought by the cultists. Last Tuesday night, the cultist's stone statue attracted the attention of the evil god. If the guardian and the god caller hadn't helped at that time, we would have been in great trouble. . This time, although we are not sure whether the stone statues of cultists can cause similar results, for the sake of safety, we did not attack by force."
In order to deal with the incident in the Randall Valley, the Church of the Five Gods mobilized six thirteen-ring warlocks to the Randall Valley, plus two from the three major academies, "Bloodweeper" Hermons, and special existence forms. Guardian, at this time, Randall Valley City has an unprecedented gathering of eleven thirteen-ring warlocks.
In order to prevent the situation like last Tuesday night from happening again, Mr. Granger, the "Earth Shaker" of the Church of the Sun, Ms. Tris Michelle, the "Free Singer" of the Peace Church, and Chris, the "Illusion Master" of the Creation Church Mr. Evans has already appeared here. Together with the two Thirteenth Rings of Serkses and St. Byrons, five Thirteenth Ring Warlocks will work together to solve this matter.
Time was urgent, so the five thirteen-ring warlocks who gathered did not bother to greet each other. Mr. Granger of the Church of the Sun serves as the commander-in-chief of the operation:
"Don't worry about other things. You must defeat the stone statue with one blow to prevent any possible evil power from leaking out of this street. Of course, if a problem like last Tuesday really occurs, the ascetic monk in our church will , carrying an angel-level relic, will attack it head-on."
