Angel still had a look of doubt on his face, but he didn't continue to ask, because the two of them had a long conversation, which made the shadow on the side look curious again.
Regarding the abnormality in the soul, he did not want others to know.
"Don't tell anyone about the law context in my soul." Angel said to the high priest.
The high priest nodded slightly.
After the selection was over, the high priest signaled the priest to take Yelena to leave first. After the people left, he turned around and said, "Two lords, this grand ceremony also comes to an end."
"However, there is still a problem now." The high priest glanced at Fiona: "This time the grand ceremony has been brought forward by nearly two months. The Holy Fort once said that this time there are distinguished guests coming, and the sky needs to be selected earlier. Choir, go to St. Fort for a performance. Do you need to organize a sky choir now for rehearsals before the performance?"
Your guest is here? Going to a show at Fort St? Angel paused for a while, and then understood the reason for the advance of this big ceremony, which should be Felicia and Greya.
But it's hard to say whether or not to bring the Sky Choir to Castle Black... They used up the number of times the secret treasure was used, and now they bring the Sky Choir to Castle Black. Obviously, the timing is not right.
When Angel was having a hard time making a choice, Shadow suddenly said, "Wait, I'll ask Fiona."
Angel nodded to Shadow, who took Fiona to the second floor.
"Wait a moment, they will discuss it."
The high priest naturally understood what "discussed" meant, nodded with a smile, and sat down again.
While the shadow was leaving, Angel was going to ask something about Pocrates again.
"High priest, have you seen this pattern before." Angel created a miniature illusion, a black snake covered with scales wrapped around a long silver-white annular cone.
The high priest looked at Angel with thought in his eyes: "Your Excellency has been to Pocrates?"
In the previous conversation between Angel and Shadow, he almost admitted the fact that he had been to Pocrates, so he no longer concealed it, and nodded to the high priest: "I have been there."
High Priest: "I remember our family living in the attic of a single mother in West Pollack when I was a child. The mother's name was Taisha, and she had a lovely daughter, Bra. Before the war came, We had a good life. Taisha loved telling stories to Bra, and one of the stories that came up most often was that of Pocrates.”
The corner of the high priest's mouth twitched into a smile, recalling the good old days.
"Taisha said that Pocrates is a holy place, where there is no war, no disease, where the light shines, there is the protection of Akso, and the tone of the royal family is set, which is the supreme and beautiful realm pursued by human beings." High Priest: "My lord, I have always been curious about what Pocrates is like. Is it really such a holy place?"
"Do you think that such a beautiful utopia really exists?" Angel asked.
The high priest lowered his head, shook his head and smiled: "If Xipolok didn't have a magic energy array, it would probably be a utopia, right?"
"If you didn't have that magic energy array, you wouldn't have inherited it for thousands of years." Angel said.
The high priest did not answer, and he obviously understood this.
"Let's go back to Pocrates. I don't know if it was what you said before. But it's definitely not now. The description I can give is only one sentence." Angel said word by word: "Who, Go, who, die."
The high priest froze, then shook his head and laughed at himself: "Taisha died when the war started."
"Bula always believed that Pocrates was the place where she could redeem herself. After the war, she returned to Cipolac." The high priest said at this moment, his tone suddenly became sad: "She lied with a sweet smile. We, my mother, my sister, my brother, and my children... were tricked by her and sold to slave traders from far away. I escaped and was rescued by Lord Isabelle."
"Bula said she loves us and wants us to love her too. As long as we can sell for a good price, she can pay someone to find Pocrates, and as long as she can get to Pocrates, the good light will shine Everything in the world, this is the price we need to pay for loving her." The high priest said with sadness in his eyes: "I don't blame her, she and Taisha brought me the best memories when I was a child, so even if I leave After Sipolak, I still silently wish her from the bottom of my heart that she can find Pocrates and fulfill her long-cherished wish."
The high priest raised his head and looked at Angel: "However, hearing what the lord said today, it seems that she is also wrong and has been deceived for a lifetime."
Angel: "Not necessarily, maybe a thousand years ago, was there really a utopia there?" At least, from the current signs of Pocrates, it can be seen that the time of their destruction was a thousand years ago.
High Priest: "I hope so. Having said that, the reason why I saw this emblem, I guessed that the lord had been to Pocrates because I overheard something when our family was sold by Bra to a slave trader. Slaves The dealers also wanted to go to Pocrates, they checked a lot of royal books and learned that Pocrates' holy emblem is the black snake hovering on the long circular cone."
"The 'snake hovering in the scepter' circulated in the outside world is actually the holy emblem modified from Pocrates. But the real holy emblem is not a scepter, but a long circular cone."
"Its name is the emblem of the eternal snake."
Eternal snake emblem? Angel read this name subconsciously, and somehow, he recalled the behemoth that he saw in the underground waters - Akso.
If Akso is the black snake on the snake emblem, what is the "long cone"? Why didn't he see it in Pocrates
"Do you know what the long cone on this emblem represents?" Angel asked.
"Eternal life." The high priest paused: "This awl refers to the awl of eternal life."
Immortality... As if lightning flashed across Angel's mind, when he mentioned immortality, the first thing he thought of was the thousand-year-old Dodoro. Is this considered immortality? But he didn't find any cone of immortality on Dodolo.
When Dodolo was fished out of the coffin, he was naked and had no other cones except a broken bowl in his hand.
Shouldn't it, that broken bowl is the cone of eternal life, right
When Angel recalled it carefully, the bowl was very ordinary. He checked it several times and found nothing unusual. But Dodoro was very persistent in it, he kept holding it and wouldn't let it go. He simply let him go and didn't take the bowl away.
Later, he didn't pay attention to the bowl, and he didn't know where Dodolo was placed.
However, a bowl and a long cone, the gap is still a bit big. Moreover, since Akso is hovering on the long cone, he obviously knows about the long cone. No matter how generous it is, it will not send the cone of immortality out, right
Angel had all kinds of doubts in his heart, but this was not the time to investigate. I can only wait until I return to the surface world and go to Dodolo to get a bowl and have a look.
Angel also wanted to specifically ask about the Cone of Eternal Life. At this time, Shadow walked down from the second floor.
The shadow said to Angel: "Don't worry, I asked Fiona just now. She said that she asked the Sky Choir to perform at Castle Black in advance of the big ceremony. Madam Butterfly didn't know about this. , we'll just pretend there's no such thing."
"Your way of asking is very unique." Angel looked at Fiona, whose face was red, swollen and bruised, and was once again controlled by the puppet thread.
"Non-violence and non-cooperation save time." Shadow answered happily.
Angel didn't talk to him, and said to the high priest, "You don't need to worry about the performance. If it happens, just expose us."
The high priest nodded and retreated from the Centennial Hall.
After the high priest left, Angel and Shadow were also preparing to return to the inner world. Shadow has not given up looking for Naga, and Angel needs to go to Felicia's appointment.
When we returned to the inner world, the time happened to be approaching night.
Shadow acted alone, and Angel came to the first floor hall of Castle Black.
When he arrived, Felicia was sitting at the bartending table, while Gloria was sitting on the floor, cooking ingredients with one hand and stuffing them into her mouth with the other.
"Lord Greya, I don't know Toby now..." Angel paused as soon as he asked half a sentence.
Greya looked at him with strangeness and curiosity, as well as ignorance and shyness. Angel has seen such eyes in the eyes of many young girls, but only Greia does not appear.
"Little brother, are you thirsty? This is for you."
Greya's reaction was also very strange, blinking her beautiful clear eyes, and handing a glass to Angel.
There was no liquid in the glass, but a cloud of gas swirling like a nebula.
Angel didn't know how to react with the glass, but Greya still looked at Angel with green eyes and motioned him to drink.
Angel also knows that the ingredients of the gourmet wizard are all kinds of strange, who knows what effect he will have when drinking it. In addition, Gloria's reaction was very strange, he didn't know how to deal with it, and he held the glass and didn't move.
At this time, Felicia said: "Drink it. This is a vortex of measuring qi. After drinking it, the operation efficiency of the magic source will be slightly improved within a week. It is only good for you, not bad."
When Angel heard what Felicia said, he could only bite his scalp and drink it.
After Angel drank it, his eyes lit up slightly.
After entering the vortex, it is not as dry and tasteless as imagined, but has a wonderful milk taste, with a strong milk taste, which is completely comparable to the best milk that Angel has ever drank.
"It's so rich in milk." Angel was expressionless and sighed with restraint.
Felicia glanced at him, raised her eyebrows, and said, "The vortex does not have any taste. The reason why you feel the taste is that the gourmet wizard has added edible sulomone, which directly arouses your personal taste. According to the individual Taste preferences are different, and the taste of the vortex is also different."
"The whirlpool I drink is tasteless, but the smell of my sister is wine." Greya smiled and said, "It turns out that my little brother likes to drink milk."
Angel's face turned dark, and the things made by gourmet wizards really sucked. He forced a smile, and now he wants to hide his taste even if he denies it, so he can only face it with a smile.
"Do you want to eat this?" Greia held up a plate of round lumps that looked like metal, and happily wanted to continue sharing.
