"I am only a mortal after all. It is impossible for me to understand every aspect."
Xia De said this in his mind, admitting his own shortcomings, and at the same time, he wanted to reach out and touch the last two stone slabs in front of him.
But suddenly I heard "her" laughter:
You are great at telling stories.
Outsiders are really good at telling stories.
And I love the opera of this era. You and I learn a lot in the opera house.
Xia De raised his eyebrows, but saw that the "Silver Moon Slab", "Yellow Moon Slab" and "Red Moon Slab" that were rotating around his body were overlapping at this moment, and the light enveloped the last two huge slabs that were pieced together.
In the simple concave engravings on the stone slab, Xia De walks alone in the snow, as if telling something to someone he can’t see:
“Stories pass on civilization.”
He hesitated and spoke softly.
From the huge stone slab, a silver girl's figure walked out, and her figure became larger and larger until it almost covered most of the starry sky. The huge upper body floated above Xia De's head, and she stretched out her right hand. Three full moons were suspended in her palm. The three moons were not the same size, but they formed a strange triangular pattern in her palm.
No matter how Xia De looked at that figure, it looked like Yin Luna's.
At the same time, "Laijins Prisha" who walked out of the clay tablet had also arrived in the air between the two. The illusory figure raised his gun and shot at the tall half-length girl in front of Shade. In the palm that seemed to be made up of galaxies, a triangular pattern formed by three full moons radiated light. In the center of the triangle, a dark golden beam of light shot out and connected with the light bursting from the muzzle of the gun.
The light of the five stone slabs and five clay tablets covered the night sky. No one could tell what happened at that moment. The huge explosion stirred up snowflakes and smoke, covering the center of Stonehenge. When the smoke and snowflakes fell, when we looked at the three people in Stonehenge, the huge stone slabs and clay tablets were all gone, and the snowflakes in the sky were still flying.
Three strange glowing stone slabs were suspended around the "God Summoner", and he seemed to be floating in the air as if he was about to leave the ground. The "angel" with white wings fell from the sky and landed on the ground next to the campfire.
There was a crackling sound coming from the bonfire in Stonehenge. Shade squinted his eyes and looked at the three moonstones, somewhat puzzled. Laikins Prisha lay on his back on the ground, looking at the snowy night, and did not speak for a long time.
"Come on Kings Prisha, you lose."
Yin Luna's voice echoed inside the peeling puzzle, and the scenery of the island in the middle of Lake Pantanal was returning. The blizzard replaced the gentle snow scene, but for some reason, the huge silver moon in the sky still shone on Shade.
She actually had a lot of questions she wanted to ask Shade. Although she knew that Shade knew a lot, she didn't expect that he could almost be called a scholar. The 17-year-old girl received a full set of education in a church school. Although the education level was far higher than the average level of this era, it was still far from enough compared to what Shade had just shown.
The long sword that had pierced the ground when the maze was opened was pulled out by Shade, and he repeated:
"Come on Kings Prisha, you lose."
The knight of the Southern Kingdom supported himself on the ground, the right half of his face stained red. He didn't care about his injuries, and raised his head to look at him. There was no resentment in his eyes, only confusion:
"Who...are you?"
"They call me the Godcaller."
Shade said, the three stone tablets around him vaguely let him understand how to seal the "power of the chosen one of knowledge and wisdom". Defeating the chosen one head-on in the competition of wisdom and knowledge just now made him understand a lot of things.
The "divine overflow" state is about to end, and he must act quickly:
"Do you admit, the Chosen One, Laikins Prisha, heir to the power of the Keeper of Secrets, that your knowledge and wisdom are not as good as mine?"
“Haha~”
A dry laugh was heard, and Sir Prisha looked at the clay tablet in his hand that broke into pieces, and the five Wise Pyroxenes that fell beside him had completely lost their brilliance:
"The ceremony should have gone smoothly. I didn't make any mistakes."
"The only mistake is..."
Shade looked at him:
"My five pyroxenes were all obtained by me from the Secret Keeper through tests. Your pyroxenes are not all like this. My knowledge comes from my own thoughts and observations. I may not be the smartest person in the world, but at least I know what I know and I carefully guard my knowledge and secrets."
“Haha~”
Dry laughter was heard again. The maze "knowledge field" had completely failed. Shade's four-in-one maze was still collapsing, and the blizzard had returned.
Snowflakes fell all over the ground that had just been cleared by the collision of forces, and also dyed the knight's hair white, or rather, his hair was really turning white:
"I... ... "
"You've already lost twice."
Yin Luna reminded, holding up the scales in her hand in the light of the rekindled bonfire:
"by... ... "
"Wait, I abide by the agreement, I admit defeat, I admit it. But, please allow me to make a request."
He looked up at Shade holding the sword:
"You passed my library maze. Yes, I know you did. This shows that my knowledge is not difficult for you in any way."
In fact, it was because "library search" took Xia De to the easiest path, otherwise he would not have encountered simple equations and brain teasers.
"Now, at the end, ask me a question. A mortal question, try to stump me. No word games, no riddles, just a question of true wisdom."
Xia De thought for a moment, and asked amidst "her" laughter:
"Definition: Among integers greater than 1, a number that has no other factors except 1 and itself is a prime number. Please, how can you prove in a mortal way that any even number greater than 2 can be written as the sum of two prime numbers?"
Jazz looked at Shade in confusion. As the space around him shattered into pieces like a mirror, he lowered his head. His hoarse voice echoed in the wind with a long sigh:
"I... lost. According to the agreement... everything belongs to you."
"In the name of the Ancient God, the upside-down judge, the winner of this duel is Xia... the Godcaller!"
Yin Luna said while holding up the scale, and the dark golden light enveloped Shad and Laikins Prisha in the light of the campfire.
Divine overflow state, one minute left.
"She" reminded softly.
Xia De nodded slightly, and as Yin Luna finished speaking, he whispered:
"In the name of the Recorder, I will record the knowledge I have earned."
The three stone slabs around him radiated light, and tiny dark golden lights flew from behind Kings Prisha. As the light faded, the illusory dark golden book melted and turned back into his severely broken life ring, but the knight did not react.
The dark golden light merged silently into the three stone slabs, but there were still some tiny spots of light that flowed into the founding knowledge that Shade carried with him.
As the light began to pour out from the stone slab again, it formed a translucent book in front of Shade. On the surface of the book was a strange pattern made up of three dark golden balls of light:
"This is..."
The full power of the chosen one, if you don’t want to give it to someone else right away, you need to prepare a vehicle for it.
She reminded softly:
One needs to have the power corresponding to the ancient gods in order to temporarily record this power.
Aikenola's Arrow of Knowledge was taken out, and the tip of the arrow lightly touched the book, which turned into a dark golden light stream and entered the top of the arrow tip. But this seemed not enough, so five Wise Pyroxenes were also integrated into this light.
When the light subsided, a triangular pattern consisting of three spheres of different sizes appeared on both sides of the tip of Aikenola's Arrow of Knowledge. The outer edge of the triangle was surrounded by four blue and one gold, a total of five teardrop-shaped particles embedded in the tip of the arrow.
The outsider, "Aiken'ola - Arrow of the Chosen" has undergone a transformation.
When you personally pierce the "Aik'ola - Arrow of the Chosen" into the body of a transcendent, it will bring at least one kind of magic to them.
When you personally shoot the "Aik'ola - Arrow of the Chosen" at a target that you yourself evaluate as "wisdom-filled" or "thirsty for knowledge", it will be endowed with the identity of a chosen one of "knowledge and wisdom".
The above effects will not work for you.
You cannot use the power of this arrow until you lose the power of "The Chosen One".
Before losing the power of "The Chosen One", anyone needs your assistance to shoot this arrow.
Even Xia De, who had always been extremely calm, had to try hard to control his ecstatic expression at this moment:
"The arrow in its current state is definitely above the Sage Level (Level 2)!"
But the ensuing feeling of declining strength and weakness reminded him that the "divine overflow" state was about to disappear, and he was about to fall into a coma that would last at least a day.
The defeat of Laijins Prisha was not unexpected by the others present. After all, the "God Summoner" had appeared before the first Chosen One, and had always demonstrated amazing combat power.
At this moment, the maze space was completely peeled off, and everyone and Stonehenge returned to the real world, the island in the middle of Lake Pantanal in the snowstorm.
The cold wind blowing on my cheeks was a little uncomfortable, but what was even more difficult to adapt to was the chaotic whispering elements and the violently shaking ground.
Fires started everywhere, and the thick fog covering the island in the middle of the lake became even thicker. In the distance, amid the howling of giant beasts, countless huge, wriggling black tentacles danced on the lake and the island, like giant pillars connecting the night sky to the ground.
Traces of battles could be seen everywhere, and violent spirits collided violently in various places on the island. With the island in the middle of the lake as the center, thick black clouds spread to the entire swamp, and were affecting the entire western side of the old continent.
hold head high!
Amid the heart-stopping screams, obvious cracks appeared in the dark night sky. The crowd that had just walked out of the maze stared at the violent snowstorm, then turned to look at the western sky under the dark clouds and firelight. The colorful black was wriggling on the snowy ground, and with a clear sound of "Kacha", the last loud prayer shout in the distance, and in a shocking black lightning, the sky shattered.
The wind blew away the dark golden light on the arrow in his hand, and it turned into a point of light that flew away. As Shade was about to fall asleep, he looked at the terrifying sky:
"Luvia's dream and the vampire's prophecy... Is this the first bell of the end?"
He is ready.
