The Spine of the World, the highest mountain range located in the middle of the continent of Ios, is considered by the world to be the place closest to the residence of the gods, so it is home to many man-made temples.
Even though it is bitterly cold on the top of the mountain, countless pilgrims still climb to the temple on the highest peak every year in an attempt to gain enlightenment from the gods.
In the wind and snow, another pilgrim came to the tallest temple. It was a simple temple built of stone, with no roof and only four walls made of square stones.
Because there is not much space on the top of the mountain, the scope of the temple is also quite limited, only about ten meters wide.
The strange thing is that even though there is no roof, not a single snowflake falls into the stone wall, and the howling wind is also blocked, as if there is a mysterious force protecting the temple.
There is an altar in the center of the temple, and a round stone container is placed on the altar. Other than that, there is nothing here.
The pilgrims, shrouded in black robes, knelt in front of the altar, bowed their bodies, and prayed.
"The great omniscient and omnipotent God, please give guidance to your humble believers. What is the ultimate answer to the world?"
The pilgrim knelt on the ground and listened intently, but he heard nothing except the slightest sound of wind.
God would not answer everyone's prayers, but He decided to wait until the next pilgrim arrived. He still had time.
He maintained his worshiping posture and continued to wait.
I don't know how long it took, but he suddenly felt something in his heart and raised his head.
A beam of light fell on the stoneware on the altar, and a mysterious thing landed lightly in the light. It was as white as snow and had a unique structure, like a strange flag.
If he had more life experience, he would have known that it was a pair of women's silk underwear.
But he grew up in a monastery where there were no women, and he had never seen such a thing - the monks in the monastery did not wear such underwear.
So he excitedly stared at the underwear floating from nowhere, trying to understand some truth.
"Is this the revelation God gave me? Thank you, merciful God, I will definitely find the answer."
He stood up, ready to take away the "object of divine revelation", but when he stretched out his hand, the divine object flapped its symmetrical corners and flew out of the stone.
He waved his arms to grab it again, and the divine object dodged lightly. It flew high into the sky like a butterfly and disappeared into the vast wind and snow.
One of the pilgrim's arms is still stretched high into the sky, and his whole body seems to be frozen.
"The divine creature has escaped!"
He stared blankly at the sky, and it took him a long time to recover from the heavy blow.
"It doesn't matter, I already remember what it looks like, I will definitely be able to find the answer."
…
Emerald Bar.
Tinian has left, and Karina is the only one left at the bar.
Ringer was still thinking about how Tinian escaped from Jelit, when he suddenly heard Lanya say: "The soul of the guest just now is so strange."
He looked outside the bar and found Lanya staring at the door with a confused look on her face. He suddenly remembered that Lanya could see the state of people's souls, so he asked:
"Lanya, what did you find?"
"Her soul is like a mist, constantly changing, without a stable form, and sometimes disappears suddenly. This is the first time I have seen this kind of soul."
Is this unique soul form the reason why Tinian escaped the eyes of the demon hunter?
While Ringer was thinking about it, another customer opened the door and entered the store.
This time it’s an acquaintance, the witch from the Nightingale Forest, the witch Del who once left her bath towel in the store. She has no talent for writing. She hasn’t written a popular work in a hundred years, but the witch Del is good at writing and loves to write. you.
When she entered the store, she looked sad again, as if she had lost something precious.
Some people died, but not completely...
