Xia De also agreed with her idea:
"Then I suggest you perform the divination for the chosen one, rather than the first candidate."
Luvia closed her eyes and threw one of the coins directly into the air. The spinning coin began to show signs of rust at the highest point in the sky, and then turned into ashes after it fell.
"Can a coin alone predict the contents of the chosen one's ritual? I remember that the efficiency of divination with this kind of coin shouldn't be that high, right?"
Xia De was very surprised, and Luvia was equally surprised:
"I was just trying it out. I didn't expect it. I didn't divine the content of the ritual directly. I divined how to obtain the complete ritual. The conclusion of the divination was that the answer was in your book "Riverwood Town and the World Tree."
This book was bought by Shade at a charity auction on the recommendation of Professor Youke Wood. It was written by an unknown folklorist and is not very thick. Luvia's divination pointed to this book, but not to a specific chapter in the book. After all, divination is not omnipotent.
But this does not mean that they need to analyze and speculate all the content in this book. After all, the scattered fragments of poems not only point out that the biggest feature of the chosen one this time is that he "has traveled through time", but also point out some requirements of this ceremony.
Combining the information from the witch, the academy, and Iluna, Luvia quickly set her sights on page 13 of the book:
"Ximu Town is a town with a thriving logging industry, so the local coming-of-age ceremony is also related to this. Boys born in the town do not have to chop down a large and thick tree as a sign of their adulthood at the age of sixteen. They need to choose the most suitable location and plant the saplings they think are most suitable.
This reflects the residents’ reverence and gratitude for the forest. It is also a way for local residents to ask for protection from the forest. Planting a sapling that symbolizes adulthood in the forest makes the tree itself a part of the forest.”
She finished reading this not very long passage, and then said to Shade:
"The description is very straightforward, but if you think about its deeper meaning, there are other possibilities. But the core is 'planting trees', which is definitely the core goal of this ceremony for the Chosen Ones."
“All I’m worried about is planting trees.”
Xia De said in a low voice, and the purple-eyed girl raised her eyebrows:
“Are you worried that Emilia will become the new World Tree?”
"Yes. Huh? How did you know? Was I talking in my sleep?"
Xia De clearly remembered that he had not told anyone about this. Luvia looked at him with a smile:
"You never talk in your sleep, but Shad, I have known you for a year, and you are so easy to understand. I don't need to read your mind or have telepathy. Sometimes I can even know what you are thinking by looking at your expression. You are now recalling the night you spent with Dorothy last night, and you want to try whether I really have this ability to understand you."
Xia De immediately hugged his head, and Luvia laughed even more happily:
"I'm not kidding you. The Chosen One of Time will be transformed into the World Tree. This is not an idea I have just come up with recently. We have known from the beginning that the existence of the World Tree stabilizes the time of the material world. Now, if we want to stabilize time again, of course we need a new World Tree."
"But I don't want Emilia to become a tree, unless it's the kind of thing where she's called a tree but it's just a title."
Xia De shook his head and touched the cat:
"I have high hopes for Emilia, but that doesn't mean I'm going to push her to that kind of ending. And I have a feeling that if she really faces this choice in the end, Emilia will definitely take the initiative to transform into the World Tree."
"Yeah, that's what that silly girl would do, she would think it was for you."
Luvia said, but she was not worried at all:
"Everything is still your speculation. I had a strange dream a few days ago. Maybe this can make you feel more at ease. The content of the ritual of the chosen one of time may be to let the chosen one transform into the world tree, but is it also possible that the chosen one is just asked to plant a sapling that can stabilize time? If there is really no other way, they will be asked to do it themselves."
Shade thought for a moment:
“So this ritual is to revive the dead World Tree? Why do I feel like this is going to be more difficult than asking Emilia to do it herself?”
"No, no, you have really strange thoughts sometimes."
Luvia shook the back of her right hand. Although the veins on the back of her hand had disappeared, Xia De understood what she meant:
"The meaning of the Time War is actually to collect the power of other candidates and eventually turn this power into seeds to plant saplings?"
Luvia nodded.
"This sounds at least more real than 'Emilia becomes an ancient god' or 'resurrects the ancient god'. So my guess is that no matter who wins, they will find a way to make this power take root in the Vista Forest. When the new sapling is born, the chosen one of time will appear."
This does sound more realistic than Shade's idea:
"So how do you do that? I mean plant a small tree."
Luvia then picked up the second coin, but this time the coin flew to the highest point and then fell down normally. There is no answer to this question yet.
Although all parties were preparing, the people living in the city in the forest did not feel that this Wednesday was any different from the previous ones. The sun rose from the east as usual and then fell into the west into the distance of the forest. The people who went out to look for food like ants also returned home again after going out.
When night fell, even the "First Snow Concert" completed all arrangements for the next day, and the city fell into silence in the thick night.
Today's weather was as bad as Margaret's mood since early morning. When dark clouds covered the moon and stars, this city located in the middle of the forest seemed to be in eternal tranquility.
Deep in the dense forest east of the city, a small tomb was surrounded by three expressionless witches and Shade. The surface of the tree entangled by tree roots had cracks, and in the cracks was the body of an old man who looked like he had just passed away.
The elf retreated to the little unicorn behind Shade at this time. She was a little tired and hugged the pure white little animal's neck to rest, not caring what Shade was going to do next.
"Then let's get started."
Shade said, and Vanessa, the little witch of the earth, raised her hand. As the ground shook slightly, the roots wrapped around the trees began to wriggle. The roots that were originally tightly wrapped around the trunks underground finally showed signs of loosening, so taking advantage of this opportunity, Carina and Sylvia narrowed their eyes slightly, and the corpse flew out of the cracks in the trunk out of thin air.
Due to the influence of gravity, the limbs of the corpse fell down. Shade said sorry in his heart and drew the scarlet sword from the air with his right hand.
When the witches gave up their control of the corpse and let it fall naturally, the sword light in the cave seemed to turn into real bright red moonlight, and the sword hit the neck of the corpse.
Boom~
Above the low hills, a rumbling sound of thunder came from deep in the dark clouds. As the cold night wind blew through the forest, a huge and twisted dragon beast head poked out from the deepest part of the dark clouds.
Although it didn't know why it was led here, and although it didn't know what was below, it still disobeyed the order and opened its mouth in infinite anger, and a beam of dark thunder spewed out of the dragon's mouth.
The lightning broke through the silent night and hit the hill below, and a mushroom cloud rose up in the seemingly infinite light and heat. The hill and everything around it were razed to the ground in the loud noise, but before the smoke and dust cleared, fireworks symbolizing the official start of the action bloomed from the forest in the distance.
A shrill whistle sounded from the forest below, and the melody of the Sage-level relic [Hunting Griffin Flute] caused the black dragon hiding in the clouds to fall directly. The piercing sound made its body uncontrollable, and its huge body even trembled as it fell.
But it was not a real griffin after all. Before it really fell into the forest, this huge monster with deformed flesh and blood controlled its body and took off into the air again, but the "Blade of the Sky" that fell from the starry sky came towards it.
On the surface of the mutated body, thick white mist formed a chaotic time flow to protect it. The giant sword made of starlight deviated from its trajectory under the influence of time, but the Paladin's attack was not meant to kill with one blow.
As the white mist appeared, a stream of rippling golden light erupted from the ground to the sky. Hundreds of devout ring sorcerers from the Church of Dawn jointly formed a divine ritual formation, allowing the holy emblem of [Mr. Dawn] to appear clearly above the forest, and then this ritual of stabilizing time quickly reduced the white mist around the dragon beast.
The monster realized that something was wrong and dodged hundreds of magical attacks from the ground. It spread its wings and wanted to fly away from here. At this time, Mr. Bill Camorra, the Thirteenth Ring of the Church of Nature, who had been hiding deep in the clouds, revealed his life ring.
This thirteenth-ring warlock who once supported Moon Bay was not originally assigned to come to Vista Forest to carry out the mission, but in order to deal with this dragon beast, he arrived at the local area in the evening this day, and therefore he now looks like an adult.
In fact, the church, which attached great importance to this "hunting operation", did not arrange any Thirteen Rings in child form to participate in the operation.
"Thaumatology - Dragon Hunting Net!"
Mr. Gamora stretched his hand downward, and the huge brass net covering the entire sky opened up, covering the entire eastern forest area of Vista Woodland. The dragon beast's body slammed into the giant net, but the top divine art that the Thirteenth Ring used to restrain it could not be broken by just the impact.
