Chapter 149. Say That Again?
The Holy Spirit had made it clear that it had told some information to Fredrick. There were two possibilities.
First, they might not know what Char had done under Astan City, but Frey would know if he paid attention to Char.
The second possibility was that the Holy Spirit simply told him. Someone wanted to hit on your big-breasted apprentice.
If Char had known about this, he would have immediately put out the dangerous flame and stomped on it a few times. Although Fredrick was a calm man, he still could not resist Char's attack.
Then, he came to take a look. "Not only did you try to woo my disciple, you even hacked my account!"
Danger!
That was why Char did not want to bring Saxson any further. He could not farm reputation for nothing, and he was still hoping that Saxson would bring him to Grinland. The Royal Court was not a place that one could enter as they pleased.
Moreover, he was still carrying Ortlinde.
He planned to have a good talk with her after she woke up. It was inconvenient to have an extra person.
However, the City Lord's attitude was firm, and the two had just established a deep revolutionary friendship. It was not wrong to say that they were friends through life and death. It was really difficult to refuse, so they simply went together.
At the location of the light cocoon, which was the place where the last beam of golden light had turned into, there was a big hole with a radius of one meter. It was unknown how deep it was.
Saxson summoned a few eyes of insight and threw them down. After a while, he found out the situation below.
"You're right. There's indeed some strong accumulated magic power at the bottom. The eye of insight was annihilated when it went down 50 meters. It seems to be a Khorium ruin."
"So deep?" Char was speechless. As expected of the sacred souls, they had such a big move.
He recalled the underground structure of this area, then looked up to observe the surroundings, and roughly determined the location.
"The Khorium ruins below is a large town, and we're right above the Ancient Enchantment House. The accumulated magic you mentioned is probably the external body of the anti-magic barrier inside the enchantment house, which is the worst place to enter the Khorium ruins. As expected of me, my luck is as explosive as ever."
Char shook his head and sighed.
"The anti-magic barrier blocks out the accumulated magic power inside, so the concentration is extremely high. I can understand why the mist is the worst place, but why is it the worst?" As a rigorous scholar, Saxson immediately pointed out the loophole in his words. if we enter from here, we can directly go to the enchantment house. With the high-level anti-magic barrier, we can freely use the magical instruments without worrying about explosions. Why is it rotten?"
"That's why it's the worst."
Char's expression was unprecedentedly weird.
"You can use magic in the Enchantment Room because there are no magic tools.
"Not having any spoils of war is a great taboo in an adventure! Do you understand?"
Saxson rolled his eyes.
"This is the first time I've seen someone use greed in such a roundabout way."
"Summon an air element, my lord."
Although Saxson did not understand, he still did as he was told.
He summoned an air elemental that was as fat as white and shaped like a Genie.
"The density isn't high enough. The elemental essence density has to be higher." Char suggested.
Saxson did as he was told.
"It's too hard, not soft enough."
"It's too soft, it's easy to sink in."
"Very good!"
Char was satisfied. He found a rope to tie Ortlinde's hands and feet, then threw her into the air elemental's arms.
Saxson looked at him teasingly.
"I didn't know that you were someone who had tender feelings for women."
"Then you're too blind."
Char laughed and jumped down, with Saxson following closely behind.
Naturally, the two of them could not jump down directly. The lower they went, the more serious the interference of the Khorium ruins on magic power would be. When the resistance against mages was the strongest above the enchantment house, they would most likely fall to their deaths if they did not use slow landing spells. If this was an elevator, they would have to take the stairs down.
After groping around in the dark for more than an hour, the road was winding and winding, but they were generally heading toward their destination.
The core of the nest was hidden in the middle of the square in the Khorium ruins. There was a statue with one hand holding a heart and the other slightly raised. It was a God that the they believed in. It was responsible for a person's luck, and Char had named it the Lucky Star.
The core of the nest was in the hand of Lucky Star.
Saxson was a man of few words. Even though the two of them had become familiar with each other, he did not say anything. Char took this opportunity to call out to Mitsuya in his heart.
"What's the matter?" The goddess' tone sounded unusually tired.
It was the kind that was very tiring.
"Eh? Char was shocked. "Didn't you see that huge Holy Spirit just now? Aren't you going to give any opinions?"
Once again, Mitsuya fell silent.
Char suddenly felt that there was something wrong with the other party.
It seemed too quiet, too gentle! This was not like her at all!
"What's wrong with you?"
"Nothing."
When a woman said nothing, she usually meant it.
"Hey, goddess, this is one of the few highlights that you can use. Please cherish it."
Mitsuya remained silent.
It was only when Char was about to lose his patience that he finally spoke, "That Holy Spirit... Was a God's Chosen One in the past,"
Char was shocked and stopped in his tracks.
He only came back to his senses after a long time.
"Can you say that again?"
"Yes," Mitsuya repeated.
"But why is it the Seven Holy Spirits?"
"Perhaps the civilization has been destroyed six times, but she has succeeded once."
Char was shocked, "You said perhaps? You're actually not sure?"
"Because I only saw one Holy Spirit. I recognized him as IT. If you say that there are six others who are the same as it," replied Mitsuya, "then I guess they've all become Holy Spirits."
Char felt that his brain was not working well, so he patted it hard.
"Start from the beginning. I know that this world has been reset six times."
This was what Zin'rokh had told him.
"Yes, ever since the first successful resistance against the abyss, this civilization has been restarted six times in a row. You are the eighth God's Chosen One from the first civilization. With the help of the dwarves' Sacred Sword, Narshil, and the Gungnir, the God's Chosen One bathed in holy light, defeated Zin'rokh. after completing his mission, he lost my protection and died of old age. After that, he passed down these two weapons.
However, his successor was far less powerful than him. He failed six times in a row. Although he could rely on the first-generation divine artifact to die with Zin'rokh each time, he could not change the fact that monsters were everywhere and the foundation of civilization was destroyed.
"So they became Holy Spirits?" Char asked.
"I'm sorry, I don't know..."
Mitsuya's voice was low, and it was clear that she was in a mess.
"I don't know why it became like this...
