The image faded, and Adriana whispered, "These are the memories I have not shared with anyone for thousands of years. Now you all know what the Seven Towers' cards are and how they came to be."
"The hope you mentioned should be that we can find the flaws in the mind of the God of Nature by understanding his inner world, right?" Xiao Chen asked.
"Yes, although the hope is slim, this is the only chance I see. I don't know what you will do in the end, but you are at least more likely to succeed than Hastings and his men. The failure of the Spirit Tower may also be washed away after thousands of years."
"I don't have a definite method yet, but we will try our best to find this possibility." Xiao Chen said, "However, do you know the details of the battle that year? If we know how the God of Nature fought, it will definitely be of great help to us."
"I only know that the prophet provided Hasting with a tool to enter the Kingdom of the God of Nature, but I was in a coma when the God-killing War took place. So I don't know what happened. In fact, since no one can return from the Kingdom of God, none of us mages who stayed behind know what happened there. I met Gregorio afterwards, and he had no idea what happened."
Xiao Chen nodded. It seemed that the surviving Seven Towers mages did not know as much about the battle as Mei Tiantian. The scene that the God of Nature showed her at least let her know the reason for the failure of the battle.
"Then are you willing to join us with the Spirit Tower?" Xiao Chen asked.
"I can give you the Spirit Tower." Adriana said unexpectedly straightforwardly, "Originally, I was completely disappointed, so I created these ghost armies, hoping to use them to attract the lackeys of the City of God, and then use the Spirit Tower to cause them some trouble. Now it seems that there is no need to do that."
Adriana's statue-like body trembled slightly, and she said, "As for me, I am just an ugly soul remaining in this world. Now that I have done what my father asked me to do, it is time for me to leave."
Xiao Chen said: "You may not know that as a magician of the Dream Tower, I have a very broad meditation world. Even if your body is facing collapse, since your consciousness is still there, you can live in my or other people's meditation world."
"You want me to be your spirit servant?" Adriana laughed. "Little wizard, you are so bold. With your status as a great wizard, you actually want to subdue a saint. Even in the Seven Towers era, there was no one so self-righteous."
"My meditation world is so big that I still haven't found its boundaries."
"No, it's useless even if you are a saint. In order to prolong my life, in addition to making a seat of immortality for myself, I also integrated the Spirit Tower into my soul and turned it into the soul core that supports the existence of my soul. Unless I release the Spirit Tower, you can't get it. And if I release it, my broken soul will be completely shattered." When Adriana said these words, she was much more relaxed than when she recalled the past of the Seven Towers. "You have to make a choice, do you want to join an ancient saint in the meditation world, or get the Spirit Tower itself?"
Xiao Chen said: "I have said before that using the power of the Seven Towers is just an additional option. I don't think you need to give up your life. We happen to know some scenes of the God-killing War. The mages of the Seven Towers were not defeated by the disparity in strength, but the God of Nature cut off the connection between magic words and magic power, depriving the mages of the ability to use magic. Knowing the methods of the God of Nature, he is not so scary, and we still have other opportunities."
"So that's how it is. No wonder you guys practiced the Origin Tower's Origin spellcasting method." Adriana was a little surprised. "But it's up to you to figure it out. I'm really tired after wandering on the sea for four thousand years."
"Maybe you need to calm down and think about it carefully..." Xiao Chen wanted to say more, but was stopped by Luo Ling: "Stop talking, Saint Adriana has made her choice. Look..."
Xiao Chen found that Adriana's bloodshot eyes stopped moving, and the middle of her bald head began to crack, and then a thick crack appeared. But no blood flowed out of the middle, and a glowing white ball flew out of her skull, and a black and white crystal could be vaguely seen in it.
The crystal slowly floated towards Xiao Chen, and finally stopped less than one meter in front of Xiao Chen.
Adriana's voice rang out again in the air: "The Spirit Tower is now entrusted to you. Glade, you have to see the final outcome for me."
After saying this, the ball of light in the air shattered into fine dust like broken glass, and the crystal of the Spirit Tower fell into Xiao Chen's hand. However, two small and slightly larger pieces of the dust suddenly flew towards Xiao Chen and Glade, and one piece sank into Xiao Chen's head. Xiao Chen's expression froze and he stood there in a daze. The other piece fell on Glade's chest, which was the location of his book spirit origin.
"What's going on?" Luo Ling exclaimed.
She hurriedly sent a trace of her mind into Xiao Chen's meditation world through the soul bridge that had already connected her and Xiao Chen.
When she appeared on the beach, she saw Xiao Chen and his spirit servants standing not far away, looking at a graceful woman in a fiery red dress standing on the slope of the beach.
That was undoubtedly what Adriana looked like originally. With just one look at her, Luo Ling understood why Glade said that wherever Adriana was, it would give people a feeling of prosperity. Even though she was a woman, she could feel her heartbeat speeding up.
Adriana walked slowly on the beach, seeming to feel the sand and the sea water, her toes sank into the sand, the insteps of her feet were hit by the waves, she stared at her feet for a while, then opened her arms and stood facing the wind. The wind lifted her hair and skirt, like a blooming flower.
"Has she become your spirit servant?" Luo Ling asked.
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"What a beautiful and real world." Adriana turned around and smiled. Her face was so radiant that Luo Ling and the others felt their hearts tremble.
When they came to their senses, her figure had disappeared.
Only a single red flower remained on the sand at her feet, its petals long and slender and flamboyant.
"This is Lycoris radiata." Luo Ling said. (To be continued)
