Chapter 706 May the ceremony go smoothly

"What, is there something wrong?" Judy seemed to be aware of Xiure's uneasiness, and seemed to be infected, and asked, "Did you find a problem in my Lord's dream?"

"Oh, that's why I asked you just now, but you didn't answer me." Shuer sighed helplessly, "Lord Kaia... did the ritual I performed in her dream work?"

"No, my Lord said that while you were working hard, she was also observing from another angle. Well, jumping out of her current identity and observing from the perspective of a bystander, the results were not optimistic."

"Huh? Why aren't you optimistic?"

"My Lord feels that the effect of that ritual is not as effective as the Lord of Wisdom imagined." Judy shook her head, "At least it cannot make her sleep deeper."

"Are you sure that's what Lord Kaia said?" Shuer raised his eyebrows, "It's not that it can't solve the problem, but that it can't make her sleep deeper?"

"Well, these are my lord's exact words. It may not be ineffective, but at least my lord can't feel it. I think if my lord can't feel it, it can be regarded as invalid."

"Maybe." Shuer shrugged noncommittally, "Since it has no effect, why continue?"

"Otherwise?" Judy asked, "Why don't we stop and wait for the destruction of the world?"

Xiure was stunned, shook his head and smiled bitterly. What Judy said was so reasonable that he couldn't refute it. Since there was no other way and time was running out, of course he could only try the last method. I'm afraid he wouldn't make a last resort. No one will be willing to do so.

"So, what's the problem?" Finding that Shuer never answered directly, Judy was obviously a little irritated. She frowned and urged, "The ceremony hasn't started yet. If there is a problem, there is still time to adjust it. Once the ceremony starts, there will be no chance. Because the ritual that started cannot be stopped.”

"Oh? Why?" Shuer was stunned, remembering the tragic dream a few years ago, "Will the priests who participated in the ceremony die due to the backlash of the ceremony?"

"It's not just the priests." Judy's face was stern and she said in a deep voice, "Originally, everyone thought that the ceremony could be stopped at any time, but after preparations were completed, it was discovered that due to the expansion of the scale, the backlash was also increasing by leaps and bounds. "

"Huh? Could it be..." Xiure found that he might have figured out the reason why even the closest people in the dream were against him. Before that, he had subconsciously understood that the dream might be in the future. It was a possibility, but he still couldn't accept it rationally, because until now, he still didn't believe that Saff and Moria would draw weapons on him.Yes, it's possible for everyone else, except Moria and Saff. Shuer really can't think of a reason why they would do this, but if...

"Yes." Judy said seriously, "Once the ceremony has started, it must not be stopped. Otherwise, not only will the souls of all the priests participating in the ceremony collapse, but even the gods who dominate the ceremony will be counterattacked by the rules of the world. Fall into an eternal sleep from which you can never wake.”

Sure enough.

Presumably the Lord of Knowledge, the Lord of Wisdom, and Lady Anika, who has an unpredictable temperament but always makes Xiure feel close to her, must have all fallen asleep in the backlash, leading to the desperate situation of betrayal and alienation.Although the biggest question has been answered, this is the first time I regret finding the answer.

"Actually, it's not like we can't stop." "Huh?" Both Xiuer and Judy were stunned. The voice was not from the two of them, but it was very familiar. They looked up and saw a brown planet projection, hanging high above the meditation room. , a faint divine pressure was faintly transmitted from the motionless projection, and of course, there was also the voice belonging to Lord Kaia, "If all participants cooperate and slowly reduce the intensity of the ceremony, it can finally be terminated safely. It’s a ritual, but it’s very troublesome and difficult, and…why?”

"Yes, Shuer, do you really think the ceremony should be terminated?" Although it is rare for Master Kaia to directly transmit his voice, Judy is more familiar with Mother Earth and recovered from the surprise faster than Shuer. "We have reached this point, and the reasons have been clearly explained to you. If you want to terminate it again, you must at least give a convincing reason."

reason?No.Persuasive?Even less.Can I say it was just a dream?Xiure opened his mouth, but swallowed back the reason that would never be accepted.

"Okay, I understand. We have come so far and there is no way out for everyone, so we can only give it a try." After hesitating for a long time, Shuer finally nodded, "As for the evacuation work on Parvatiga's side , Don’t worry, now that I’m back, I won’t let the situation get worse. In fact, even if I’m not here, my Lord and Master Anika…”

"The two adults can indeed mobilize the power in the rift space, but Master Anika has been adjusting her power in preparation for the ceremony for the past year. Not only Master Anika, but also all the Holy Spirits participating in the ceremony have stayed behind closed doors, and Master Luna …”

"Huh? What's wrong with my lord?" Shuer had an ominous premonition in his heart. He always felt that the guy who was willing to block himself at the door of the big rift in order to buy more time for Parvatija... ahem, The great goddess might do something again.

"Don't be nervous, Lady Luna is not in danger. Besides, you forgot to hide your expression."

"Ahem, cough, cough." Shuer rubbed his face vigorously, hiding the confusion and helplessness on his face deeper, and turned back into the clergyman with a face of piety and reverence.

"It's because many gods stay behind closed doors to prepare for the ceremony, and it's very troublesome to even distract themselves from supporting their own territory in the rift space." Judy covered her mouth and chuckled softly, "So..."

"Very good, I understand, she just stood up." Xiure nodded vigorously, his expression was extremely holy.

"It's not that exaggerated. It's beyond the ability of any main god. She just tried to bear as much of other people's territories as possible. Well, she was only responsible for providing supporting power, such as those who've provided power and always built Several temples should develop billions of believers to balance the requirements. Unfortunately, her priest is not here, and her archbishop is not so helpless..."

"Ahem, praise the Lord. This is a very reasonable request, but forget it if you don't mention it." Shuer immediately interrupted Judy's slander, endured the pain all over his body, stood up, and dusted himself off, " I understand the situation, and I will give priority to coordinating the immigration work of Parvatiga. If there are any questions, I will communicate with you at any time. I hope the ceremony goes well, and I hope Parvatiga can survive the crisis safely."

"May the ceremony go well."

Xiuer slowly exited the meditation room. When he closed the door, he didn't know whether it was looking at Judy who was getting older or looking at the projection of Parvatija hanging quietly above her head. Xiuer sighed faintly.

　After thinking about it carefully, I decided not to be lazy, so I decided not to ask for leave, okay.
