Chapter 459 Secret Conversation 2
“Is this... a perfume bottle to be buried with?”
The lady sitting next to Parra let out a light sigh.
She picked up the square carved glass bottle on the table and after looking at it for a few times, she confirmed her guess.
“This bottle contains a huge amount of spiritual energy.”
Parra felt something and frowned.
“There are at least nearly a thousand ‘rest’ units.”
“Your judgment is as accurate as ever, Pala.”
Ms. Shade smiled.
"Thank you for the compliment." Parra chuckled and said in a deep voice: "A container that can hold so much spiritual energy is not something that ordinary people can refine. Sade, what did you see? ”
"Hmm..."
The lady looked at the glass bottle and gently stroked the small leather ball at the mouth of the bottle for squeezing with her lace-gloved fingers.
There are some very unique patterns on it.
"As expected, this should be a mysterious creation from the hands of the 'Spirit King' Lorethio Horn."
"Spirit King..." Parra frowned Lock tight. "How could it be Him?"
He seemed to notice the confusion on Ji Lan's face.
The handsome blond man explained to him:
"'Spiritual King' Luo Sexiu is one of the apostles under the command of the 'White Dove Poet' in October Sichen, and is the same as 'Dai Shen Song' ', 'Paper Bird' are also known as the 'Three Writers of Babel'. "
"Tower of Babel? "
Jilan was quite surprised when he heard the name of this familiar mythical building. surprise.
Tower of Babel, also known as the Tower of Babel in ancient Babylon.
It is a mythical building from the "Bible, Old Testament, and Genesis" in the previous life.
It is described in detail in the Bible story in Chapter 11. At first, humans wanted to unite and build a tower that would lead to heaven.
But later, in order to prevent mankind's plan, God changed the languages spoken by mankind so that they could no longer communicate with each other. As a result, the plan failed and mankind scattered since then.
But the problem is that there is no so-called "Bible" in this other world, and God is not Jehovah, but Omer.
This paradoxical feeling appeared again, which made Ji Lan feel strange.
"The 'Tower of Babel' is the home of the 'White Dove Poet' of October Sichen, located in the 'Temple' area on the top floor of the Land of Gods. Ascending through the 'Scorpio Gate' in October, passing through the 'White Dove Poet' "River of Pigeons," you can reach the bottom of the tower."
Pala patiently explained to Gilan.
"According to legend, the 'Tower of Babel' was created by June Sichen 'Mrs. Ya' as a betrothal gift to pursue the poet. However, after the poet accepted the gift, he rejected his wife's pursuit with lies. "
"Huh?" Jilan felt an inexplicable sense of déjà vu while listening to these secret histories that could not be verified.
What does accepting a gift mean?
If this kind of thing happened in the previous life, it would be contrary to Tiangang!
As a god, why is he so stupid?
At this moment, Ji Lan seemed to have forgotten what he had done, and was complaining in his heart.
“So behind this incident, in addition to the ‘Solar Eclipse Society’ and the ‘Crescent Moon Society’, there is also the participation of the ‘White Dove Poet’?”
Jilan frowned.
"It's very possible." Sade said at this time. "In fact, 'Spirit King' Lorethio is the real controller of the 'Black Cemetery' in the hometown of gods, and 'Black Cemetery' has another name - 'Hell'."
"Therefore, Luo Sexiu also has the honorific title of 'King of Hell'."
Hearing this, Ji Lan suddenly understood.
The "Eclipse Society" is an extreme secret society that believes in the "Windmill Cat" and is deeply involved with the devil. As the king of hell, the "Spirit King" is naturally also involved.
"No wonder..." he mused.
“The birth of hell originated from the pollution of the ancient evil god ‘Sulfur Lord’. Under it, the two most powerful kings of hell are the ‘Windmill Cat’ and the ‘Spirit King’.”
Para picked up the coffee cup and took a sip.
Under the silver-plated glasses, there is a pair of deep eyes.
“Now that the ‘Windmill Cat’ is injured, it is not surprising that the ‘Spirit King’ comes to help.”
He suddenly thought of something, took a deep breath and said:
"Today is April 24th, and it is approaching the end of the month. I am afraid that in these few days, major changes will occur in the empire."
"Why is the teacher so sure?"
Jilan asked.
Ms. Sade answered his doubts:
"Because April is the month of 'Ms. Elegy'. Although the 'Art Three Stars' are contradictory to each other, most of the time they are consistent with each other."
"Next month will enter the month of 'Twin Kite' , the 'lower level' in the land of gods will be out of control, so before the end of this month, with the acquiescence of 'Miss Elegy', the devil can unscrupulously pass through the border and come to the world..."
After the lady said this. Said, Jilan understood.
Pala raised his head and said to his students:
"Don't worry, I have made appropriate preparations, and I also have plans and emergency measures for unexpected arrivals. Including the mysterious investigation committee and purification , balance department, etc., also received my order.”
"Jilan, I give you a task."
"Teacher, please tell me." Jilan lowered his head slightly.
"Once something unexpected happens, I will act together with Miss Sade to find and remove the mastermind behind the 'Crescent Moon Society' as soon as possible."
Pala gave a serious order.
“But the possible demon army and the members of the 'Solar Eclipse Society' need to be handed over to you. The personnel of each department are led by corresponding team leaders, but in the face of powerful forces above level 5 or even level 6, you need to be responsible for them. Otherwise, they can’t do anything but rely on you.”
Although Gillan wondered why the two knight commanders, Karl the Ferryman and Adams the Silent Speaker, did not take action, he did not ask any questions.
Presumably these two strong men have more important tasks.
It is a pity that Mr. Agni, the "King of Doudun" as the deputy leader, sacrificed himself in the operation to encircle and suppress the "Windmill Cat".
At that time, in order to seal the volcano, Parra used the "Philosopher's Sword" overload. The powerful alchemy caused the "King Doudun" to permanently lose his identity and had to operate in the land of gods.
Otherwise, the response this time will definitely be much easier.
"The students will live up to their trust if they know it."
Jilan said solemnly.
Pala smiled happily and nodded:
"Jilan, this will be the first time you take charge of the overall situation, and it may also be the last time I take care of you... I believe you can Do it well." Jilan felt a little tight in his chest after hearing the teacher's subtext. He had to take a deep breath and agreed again.
…
…
After talking about important matters, the three of them did not say goodbye. Instead, they ordered some staple food and simply had a meal in the cafe.
While chatting about other topics.
At this time, the sunset has completely set and the sky is completely dark. The street scene outside the floor-to-ceiling windows is twinkling with lights of various colors. Horse-drawn carriages, cars, and pedestrians are bustling with people. It is quite prosperous, and there is no sign of the desolation caused by the miasma and natural disaster half a year ago.
"Human beings have been so tenacious since ancient times."
Parra noticed the students looking out the window and sighed with emotion.
“No matter what kind of devastating natural disaster you encounter, as long as you survive it, you can recover quickly. Perhaps countless sufferings have been imprinted in the depths of the body, soul and consciousness to adapt to this sad material "
As he said that, Parra also looked out the window and murmured:
"I just hope that day will come soon..."
Ji Lan heard the teacher's whisper and felt uncomfortable. He knew what Parra meant by "that day."
This is the dream that the "Healing Knights" have been striving for for hundreds of years - to clear away the darkness and create a peaceful and prosperous world.
"By the way, teacher, after I won the 'Six-Party Gambling Battle', I received some letters from the secret sect."
Jilan thought about it for a while, and planned to change the subject to eliminate the problem. Feeling sad in the teacher's heart, he took out two letters.
After Parra took it, he opened it and saw the symbol inside. A hand-drawn illustration of a book surrounded by triangular alchemical symbols, and a black rose petal.
"This is a symbol of the 'Frozen Bookstore' and the 'Withering Nobles'."
Parra explained with a smile.
Following his explanation, Gilan also learned the information about these two secret societies.
Ningge Bookstore, an ancient organization that believes in the "Snow Lady" of September Sichen, their history can even be traced back thousands of years.
This group of people also pursues the truth and mystery of alchemy, but unlike the "Midnight Rose", they take collecting knowledge as their driving force and creed.
The most despised people are those who sell alchemical products as commodities, thinking that this is a kind of blasphemy against knowledge.
It is precisely because the Ning Ge Bookstore has collected too much knowledge that it has aroused the hostility of the "withered nobles".
The withered nobles believe in the "Twin Kite" of May Sichen and secretly control the Church of the Atonement. It can be said that the clergy of all the atonement churches in the empire are selected and deployed by the "withered nobles".
This group of people takes collecting "secrets" as their creed and possesses countless intelligence.
The "secret" of knowledge also belongs to the category of "secret", so he hates the "Ningge Bookstore" and has encircled and suppressed it more than once, trying to destroy it.
Hearing about the grievances and grievances between these two ancient secret societies, Ji Lan found it interesting.
He couldn't help but look up at Ms. Sade, who responded with a meaningful smile.
'Withered gardens, withered tea parties, withered nobles...'
Jilan secretly thought a few times.
Noting Ms. Sade's smile, he was basically certain that the secret society called "Withering Nobles" was directly related to the three May Apostles.
"Gilan, you can try to make friends with these two secret societies. It will not be harmful to you or the empire."
Pala suggested.
"Okay, teacher." Jilan nodded in agreement.
Then, he thought for a while and asked:
"I feel that I am not far away from level 6, but I have not systematically understood how to advance to the original level of 'power' The required conditions. I wonder if the teacher can explain it? ”
"Hmm...ah?"
Para nodded first, then raised her head sharply.
"How long has it been since you were promoted to level 5?"
"More than a month."
Gilan answered honestly.
Parra took a deep breath and fell into thought.
"Is it really because of the legendary 'saint''s physique that he improved so quickly?"
"It's not impossible." Sade next to her lit another cigarette. He said matter-of-factly: "As the apostle in charge of the 'Secret', as far as I know, except for the original Si Chen, there is no one who can contain four cosmic elements in a human body at the same time."
"Perhaps, this is destiny."
Pala sighed.
"I am destined to accept a 'saint' as my student before I die..."
As he said that, he looked at Gilan with eyes full of expectation, and even a hint of imperceptible... …
Grateful.
"Jilan, to be promoted to the sixth level of 'power' essence, in addition to the most basic gnosis and spirituality that need to reach the limit of the human body in the world, there is another important condition."
Pala laughs road.
"That is to successfully find the 'Corridor' of the Land of Gods and leave a rumor in it."
"Leave a 'rumor' in the 'Corridor of the Land of Gods'?"
吉Lan was puzzled.
"Please ask the teacher to clarify your doubts."
"Let me answer for your teacher."
But Sade shook her head and said casually:
"It is to let the residents of Shenxiang remember your deeds. The easiest way is to get to know an ascended person who lives in the 'corridor' and let him It’s enough to record your deeds.”
“It’s very simple, right?”
“Uh...” Ji Lan was startled. "It's really simple."
Teacher Parra shook her head.
"This is just simple for you. If ordinary mystics don't get lucky, how can they meet the ascended ones? This is nothing short of a fantasy... Generally speaking, it is very difficult to advance from level 5 to level 6. , second only to true ascension!”
Sade on the side couldn’t help laughing.
Jilan took a deep breath, overjoyed.
The original worries disappeared!
