Chapter 653 The Arrival of Fahola
The witches seemed to be a little surprised by Althea's actions, and even a trace of panic and dissatisfaction flashed in Mona's eyes, but in the end they did not express their rejection clearly.

So, the silver ring presented by the witches fell on Althea's hand.

After saying goodbye to the witches and asking the warden to dispose of the body, Althea and Eden got on the carriage back.

"Why are you…"

Eden looked at the silver ring being played with in Althea's hand.

"You mean it? This ring that the witches gave you?"

Althea asked as she held up the ring.

Eden nodded.

“I did it for a reason.

My intuition tells me that this ring is definitely not as simple as I imagined. "

Althea shook the ring and said:

"Be careful, good priest. It can know your safety, which means it can determine your location, and more likely, it means... it can monitor you."

Eden was slightly stunned.

Spy on yourself?

I really didn’t think about it that deeply.

"How did you know?"

Althea slowly put the ring on the middle finger of her right hand.

"My guess is that I heard about this kind of things from some palace conspiracies. No matter what, it's always right to keep an eye out."

Eden frowned slightly, then nodded slightly. Althea was right. Although they had cooperated with the witch coven, they were a group of wizards after all. When dealing with them, one must remain vigilant.

"I know that you must not be good at this. You are a priest. Even if there are conspiracies and tricks in the church, they are definitely not as good as Deschanel's court. The deceitfulness in the human heart is much more terrifying than the devil. Fortunately, you met me and put me Leave these to me, I am your patron after all."

When Althea said these words, she seemed to be a bit boastful.

Eden couldn't help but smile and didn't answer.

Soon after, they returned to the neighborhood where they lived, and after Eden sent Althea back to his residence, he returned to his and Verdo's house.

Back at the house, Eden met with Verdo, told him what happened in the prison, and asked Verdo to investigate the Southeast Market in the lower city together.

"It doesn't matter. There are many dwarves in the royal city. We dwarves are generally very united when we go out."

Verdo stroked his beard and said.

"By the way, Verdo...prophet him..."

Eden hesitated to speak.

"what happened?"

"Can you...can you contact the Prophet...invite the Seeran Prophet here..."

Eden lowered his voice and asked:

"I'm worried that... we alone can't handle these things, whether it's the shamans or the Fahora sects."

"this…"

Verdo was speechless for a moment. After a moment, he shook his head and said:

"No, no, I can't contact the prophet. Only he can contact me."

When he said this, the dwarf priest felt extremely guilty.

It is nonsense to say that only the prophet can contact him. Since their separation decades ago, Verdo has not seen the prophet Xilan once.

Eden couldn't help but feel disappointed, sighed, and then returned to his room.

As soon as he returned to the room, Eden grabbed the stone pendant around his neck.

Many days have passed since the two pieces of stone were glued together.

Due to the influence of the unlucky coins, the process has not been smooth.

But now, on the day when bad luck coins bring good luck, it's time to take a look.

Eden looked at the stone pendant and found that the two stone pieces had been glued together and became one piece.

His breathing couldn't help but quicken. Even though the stone pendant looked ordinary, he knew that something must have changed about it.

Eden recited scriptures, entered a spiritual state, and then gently touched the stone pendant.

A refreshing spiritual warmth flows slowly from the stone pendant to your fingertips.

After waiting for a while, Eden tried to integrate this warm current into his soul.

When the warmth first entered the soul, nothing changed.

Eden observed the trajectory of the warm current and found that the latter seemed to be drawing a ritual circle in his soul, as if he was about to perform some ritual.

The whole process lasted a quarter of an hour or two, with Eden holding her breath and waiting patiently.

"This, this is..."

When the ritual circle of the warm current was outlined, the stone pendant glowed with a burst of light, engulfing Eden's entire field of vision, turning it into a blazing white. Infinite darkness followed one after another, as if traveling into the future, ushering in a spinning sensation.

"Stop!"

Eden quickly stopped and pushed the warm current out of his soul.

Suddenly, the scene in front of him slowly recovered. Eden was holding his head, and there was still some lingering feeling of dizziness.

"Huh...huh..."

After sending out the warm current and stopping the ceremony, Eden took two deep breaths and looked at the stone pendant in his hand with surprise on his face.
"That means...from now on, I can travel to the future at any time?!"

This is undoubtedly a great benefit.

In the past, I could only wait for the stone pendant to suddenly send me to the future one day, but now, I have the initiative and can choose whether to go to the future.

"This is... such a blessing."

Eden muttered to himself.

After a moment, he took out the unlucky coin from before.

It's really good to choose this unlucky coin as a trophy.

He suddenly had a desire to use it again immediately.

After a moment, he stopped this thought and quickly shook his head.

"In fact, instead of sighing about how lucky I am today, it is better to say that I was really unlucky before, which makes me feel how lucky I am today."

Eden summarized the analysis,

"Although the rewards brought today are great,... you still have to use them with caution in the future."

Unlucky coins can certainly bring luck, but using them can also bring misfortune.

If the unlucky coin brings misfortune, then the misfortune will kill you, but it will be all over.

Eden put the unlucky coin back into his pocket, and after habitually reciting a few verses of scripture, he lay on the bed and thought about his next plan.

Today, I have collected almost all three upgrade materials, leaving two unknown materials and the fourth-level ancient sayings.

Those two unknown materials are still unknown so far...

Now it is impossible to find them.

but…

It’s a fantasy now, but that doesn’t mean the future will be a fantasy.

In the future, these two unknown materials may not necessarily be unknown.

The same goes for the fourth-level ancient saying.

Thinking of this, Eden couldn't help but smile.

The next road seems to be a smooth road.

.............................................

The good luck brought by the bad luck coin can only last for one day. As the witch Mona said, it is the luck that comes from losing money for a few days and then bursting out in one day.

Eden was not eager to use the unlucky coins again. After some experiences, he became more cautious about the unlucky coins.

The morning light had just illuminated the earth, and not long after the prayers ended, Timian in disguise came to visit.

"Messenger...may both great gods bless you."

As soon as he entered the door, Timian pulled down his hood and said excitedly.

"What's wrong? Timian." Eden paused and asked:
"Also, don't call me a messenger here."

Timian quickly changed his mind and continued:
"Priests, their priests, I have to bring you news, great news."

Eden looked puzzled.

"Seven battles with horses, seven battles with horses!"

Timian was a little incoherent.

"What's the matter?"

Eden asked again,
"I know where the Seven Battle Horse Gate is."

I know the Seven War Horse Gate, which is the gate to the north of the royal city. It is named after the seven galloping horses carved on the door frame of the city gate. Not far from the city gate, there is a hillside connected to the forest. On the back side of the hillside, there is a medium-sized rocky flat.

"The Great Elder Fahola, the Great Elder Fahola whom I have mentioned many times, is coming. In half a month he will come to the royal city, and he will be baptized and preach outside the Seven War Horse Gate!"

Timian said with great excitement. He was excited not only because of the arrival of the Great Elder Fahola, but also because the messenger (Eden) in his eyes was about to have a historic meeting with the Great Elder Fahola, and he , it is the person who wants to witness all this.

The significance is no less than the miracles witnessed by believers.

Hearing Timian's words, Eden's heart couldn't help but beat up.

I... am I finally going to see Fahola?

Eden also felt a little excited.

But the nature of his excitement was not the same as Timian's.

"Okay, I understand, you go back first."

Eden pretended to be calm and said without changing his expression:

"Let God decide everything."

Eden felt that his tone was a bit pretentious, but Timian found it useful. He repeated Eden's words religiously, as if to firmly engrave them in his memory. After a while, his The figure disappeared from Eden's sight.

................................................

................................................

Two or three days later, Verdo knocked on Eden's door.

"I found what you asked me to investigate."

Verdo said mysteriously.

Eden's eyes lit up,
"Where are those shamans meeting?"

Verdo nodded slightly,
"Exactly, thanks to the Lord's protection and the efforts of those dwarf brothers... I heard that there were signs of preparations for a gathering in Blossom Street in the Southeast Market in the Lower City.

In the past period of time, many guys have been hired to do the work, decorate and arrange the venue, and also purchase a batch of wine and food, just like holding an ordinary banquet, but you and I both know that this should Not unusual.

And...it seems like a murder occurred there. "

Eden nodded.

"Are you going to investigate?"

Wildo asked.

"Yes, and I will go there myself."

Eden replied.

Verdo was a little surprised,
"I thought you were going to call me."

Eden shook his head.

He is now a third-level choir member, but Verdo is not. He is just an old priest who knows some ancient sayings. It is too dangerous for him to follow him.

Therefore, I have to go there alone.

"Okay...but, these news have passed for a while, maybe the party is over."

Verdo continued to explain,

"Be prepared to miss out."

After finishing speaking, the dwarf priest opened his mouth, wanting to say something.

"Anything else?"

Seeing that he was hesitant to speak, Eden asked.

"I don't know if you are interested, but I also have news about the theft of the crown. However, I don't think it has much to do with us."

Verdo said so.

"Let's hear it."

"It's a rumor. It is said that the dwarf craftsmen who participated in casting the crown were often troubled by nightmares for a certain period of time. In the nightmares, they were put on cold shackles and scalded with red irons, day and night. The earth was forging something for a terrible devil, which looked like a crown. After they woke up from the nightmare, they discovered that the crown in the nightmare was very similar to the newly cast crown."

After describing it, Verdo then added:
"However, I think these are just some shocking rumors."

...........................

After a brief tidying up, Eden packed up the equipment for the trip.

They are all the standard equipment of the Night Watch, a long sword, some armor that does not affect movement, and some potions. In fact, they are almost the same with or without these equipments. Iden's biggest reliance is the path of divine creation. In comparison, but It’s the icing on the cake.

Pushing open the door, Eden took a deep breath and walked towards the place that Verdo said.

In a luxurious mansion, the maid guarding the balcony saw this and hurriedly ran to her master.

"You said he acted alone?"

Althea was a little surprised. She was holding a poetry book in her hand.

"Your knight is out alone, not knowing where he is going."

Maid Report.

Althea lowered her eyes, thought about it, and soon thought of something.

"He must have gone to find the shaman!"

The princess thought in her heart.

"Bring over my crossbow, the breastplate, and those witchcraft rings."

Althea ordered in a tone that left no room for doubt,
"Hurry, don't waste a second."

...............................

As he approached Southeast Market, Eden stopped.

He saw a familiar carriage.

Soon, a familiar figure jumped out of the carriage. Even though she was disguised, how could Eden not recognize her.

"How could you..."

Eden said in surprise.

Althea stared at Eden and sneered:

"Hey, I already guessed that you would want to act alone, so I always asked the servants to keep an eye on your residence."

"Oh...I didn't expect that."

Eden paused and persuaded:
"You go back, this time...it's a little dangerous."

"It's a little dangerous, so what? Are you worried that I'm holding you back? No, you don't have to worry, I'm already prepared, I've brought everything I need to bring, and I won't hold you back. Legs.”

After saying that, Althea shook the silver ring given by the witches.

"Besides, if you are in danger alone, it will be bad. The witches won't be able to come in time to save you, but if we act together, it will be different."

The princess' words were very forceful, as if no matter what Eden said, she had to keep up with him.

Eden sighed helplessly.

"You only have crossbow skills..."

"I also have a witchcraft ring. It was a secret method that my father prepared for me before he left."

Althea replied immediately.

"OK then."

Eden couldn't resist her, but finally agreed reluctantly.

Since Althea has the means to protect herself, coupled with the power of her third-level choir, she should be able to protect her safety.

Anyway, the number of times and experience of acting together is enough.
