Chapter 305: The Guiding Light Hermitage

"The Prophet's Association."

Amid the crackling sound of firewood, Shad's answer almost came out of his mouth.

The Prophet Association has never experienced particularly strong development, and even degenerated into a regional organization in certain historical periods. But the Prophet Association has never disappeared, and they have almost always existed with human civilization, because the desire to know the future is an expectation that has never disappeared among intelligent creatures since ancient times.

The association that developed unexpectedly rapidly in the Sixth Era thanks to the Rhodes cards is probably the most powerful association in history.

"Those people who always only say half of what they want to say really have a way to make themselves live longer."

The Moon Witch said in a low voice, it seems that the habits of fortune tellers are the same in every era.

"No, the Prophet's Association probably doesn't have any information about contacting gods. Cautious fortune tellers won't store dangerous knowledge. And even if they do, they won't easily tell an outsider like you... ... Name another one."

Miss Felina said again, and this time Shade thought for a moment:

"Blood Spirit School."

He pursed his lips and added:

“I have issues with them.”

"That's normal. The Blood Spirit School doesn't have a good reputation in our time. I didn't expect that group of people could exist for so long. It seems that the evil god you mentioned last time is probably related to them. But I don't think they have access to information about the God's Brilliant Transformation Gate. The knowledge of the Blood Spirit School is more inclined towards blood."

Miss Felina said quietly, but did not let Shade continue to list. She thought for a moment:

"I thought of an organization that might know the ritual information, and if it existed at your time, you might be able to contact them and obtain the ritual information from them... Did you know this?"

She did not say the name, but stretched out her hand from inside her robe and drew a light symbol on the ground.

The main body of the symbol is an equilateral triangle with a small circle connected to each of its three corners, and inside the triangle is a person with wings.

Xia De was stunned, and Miss Feilianna smiled:

"Do you know him?"

"Yes, but I have only seen it once. I asked my friends to help me find information about this symbol, but there has been no information. Let me put it this way, I am very sure that the organization that possesses this symbol still existed at least a hundred years before the time when I lived."

Shad had only one encounter with this strange symbol, in a space hidden behind a wall in the basement of Saint Teresa's Square, where all the potion bottles had this symbol on their bottoms.

By analyzing the text on the parchment among the sundries, he realized that someone had entered the wall a hundred years ago, but was unable to touch the statue of the ancient god like him. That organization knew about the "space maze" and even found clues to the "creation delivery room", so they must know more about the secrets of the thirteen ancient gods. Shade tried to learn more about the ancient gods and the secrets of the space left by the ancient gods through the organization represented by this symbol, but no matter what method he used, he could not find out what this symbol meant.

"What organization's symbol is this?"

Shade asked, pointing to the ground.

"The Priory of the Guiding Light."

Miss Feliana said, explaining very patiently. Shade noticed that her nails were very beautiful. In addition to their special powers, witches also have unique charms:

"If the Blood Spirit School can be directly classified as bad guys, then the Guiding Light Hermitage can be considered good guys who tend to be bad guys. This group of people are firm doomsday theorists. They firmly believe that the end of the world will come one day, so they are actively preparing ways to help themselves and more people survive the end of the world."

"Doomsday theory? There are actually people like this? And they have been passed down for so many years?"

Xia De was a little surprised. He originally thought that the organization that could find the hidden space behind his basement was an ambitious group that was committed to obtaining the secrets of the ancient gods. But now it sounded more like a group of people with a little problem in their brains.

"The tradition of the Guiding Light Hermitage is extremely ancient. Before the Fifth Era, they believed that the end of the world would definitely come. In the Fifth Era, they believed that the end of the world would definitely come. Since you have also found their traces, then they must have believed that the end of the world would definitely come after the Fifth Era."

The Moon Witch added:

"You may find these people ridiculous now, but once you get in touch with them, you will find that their rhetoric is very attractive."

Miss Felina nodded, not paying attention to the student's interruption:

"Yes, but because of the Guiding Light Hermitage's views, they have a lot of secret knowledge that others can't think of. I recommend this organization because as long as your goals do not conflict with theirs, they are very willing to trade with strange witches. I can't guess whether the Guiding Light Hermitage is reviving or completely declining in your time, but as long as it exists, it's fine."

“How do I find them?”

Xia De asked again, this method is feasible.

"It's a bit difficult, but there are ways to do it. Look for academic groups of ordinary people who advocate doomsday theory. If you can find that their views and logic are abnormally perfect, then they are likely related to the Guiding Light Hermitage. The Guiding Light Hermitage has been funding similar organizations for many years. This is one of their core principles."

But this method of searching is no different from looking for a needle in a haystack. In the prosperous steam age, there were many people who had nothing to do after eating and thought that the end of the world was coming. Doomsday theory itself is not an uncommon idea.

“Apart from this organization, is there any other way? I only have one last chance to come here. I can’t spend decades looking for this organization and then come to see you after a long wait.”

Xia De asked again.

"You seem anxious?"

Miss Felina smiled and shook her head:

"Your arrival was something we didn't expect. Even if you didn't show up, we still have other ways, ways that are very costly, to escape from here by force, but no one wants to see that scene. So, you just need to try your best to find it. It doesn't matter if you really can't find it."

She pointed to the documents being transcribed:

"I asked you to look for these documents and materials because I wanted to learn more about the god and speculate on the final conditions of the ritual to contact the god. The story of the god and his own power may point to the content of the god's descent ritual."

For example, the advent ceremony of the Lord of the Blood Feast is related to holding a banquet.

Miss Feliana's words made Shade feel a little embarrassed. His original intention was not to waste too much time on a time key, but he also wanted to help Miss Feliana and her group. Miss Feliana was the founder of the academy, which was secondary. The key point was that she had helped Shade a lot last time, and Shade was not the kind of ungrateful person:

"I'll try my best. Even if I can't find the Guiding Light Hermitage in the end, I can probably try other methods."

For example, he spent his last blood money to have Luvia divine the contents of the ceremony. It was difficult for Shade to judge which was more difficult, the ceremony of becoming the chosen one or the ceremony of summoning the gods, but as long as the conditions were met, Luvia would definitely be able to divine.

But this brings up another problem: one blood money might not be enough.

Therefore, after Xia De returned, he had to do two things at the same time: look for the Guiding Light Hermitage and look for more blood money or similar relics.

The following week became increasingly busy.
