From Prisoner to Si Chen

"Is this... a burial perfume bottle?"

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 good as ever, Para."

Ms. Sade 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, do you see anything?"

"Um……"

The woman 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 hand of the 'Spirit King' Lorethio Horn."

"Spiritual King..." Parra frowned. "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' Lotharus is one of the apostles under the 'White Dove Poet' of October Sichen. He is known as the 'Three Writers of Babel' together with 'Dai Shen Song' and 'Zhi Feiniao'."

"Tower of Babel?"

Jilan was quite surprised when he heard the name of this familiar mythical building.

The 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.

Described in detail in the Bible story in Chapter 11, it began with humans hoping 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 alien 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 residence of the 'White Dove Poet' of October Sichen. It is located in the 'Temple' area on the top floor of the Land of Gods. Pass through the 'Scorpion Gate' and cross the 'White Dove River'. You can reach the bottom of the tower.”

Parra patiently explained to Gillan.

“According to legend, the ‘Tower of Babel’ was created by ‘Mrs. Ya’ in June and was used 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 the 'Black Cemetery' has another name - 'Hell'."

"Therefore, Lorethius is also known as the '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 hell kings are 'Windmill Cat' and 'Spirit King'."

Parra 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' will help."

He suddenly thought of something, took a deep breath and said:

"Today is April 24th, and it's nearing the end of the month. I'm afraid that in these few days, major changes will occur in the empire."

"Why is the teacher so sure?"

Gillan asked.

Ms. Sade answered his doubts:

"Because April is the month of 'Miss Elegy'. Although the 'Art Three's' contradict each other, most of the time they are consistent with each other."

"Next month will enter the month of the 'Twin Kite', and the 'lower level' of the land of gods will be out of control. Therefore, 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, Ji Lan understood.

Parra raised her head and said to her students:

"Don't worry, I have made appropriate preparations and have plans and emergency measures for unexpected arrivals. The Mysterious Investigation Committee and the Purification and Balance Department have also received my orders."

"Jilan, I give you a task."

"Teacher, please speak." Ji Lan lowered his head slightly.

"Once something unexpected happens, I will work with Miss Sade to find and eliminate the mastermind behind the 'Crescent Moon Society' as soon as possible."

Parra gave serious instructions.

"But the possible demon army and members of the 'Solar Eclipse Society' need to be left in your charge. The personnel of each department are led by corresponding team leaders, but in the face of strong men above level 5 or even level 6, they are powerless. They can only I can count 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's a pity that Mr. Agni, the "Doudun King" as the deputy leader, sacrificed himself in the operation to 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 move in the land of gods.

Otherwise, the response this time will definitely be much easier.

"If students know it, they will live up to their trust."

Jilan said solemnly.

Parra smiled happily, nodded and said:

"Gilan, 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 a good job."

Jilan, who heard the teacher's subtext, felt a little tight in his chest. He had to take a deep breath and agreed again.

…

…

After chatting 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.

Let’s chat about other topics.

By this time the setting sun had completely set and the sky was 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 trace of the devastation caused by the miasma and natural disaster half a year ago.

"Human beings have been so tenacious since ancient times."

Parra sighed as she noticed the students looking out the window.

"No matter what kind of 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 world."

After saying that, Parra also looked out the window and murmured:

"I just hope that day will come soon. Unfortunately, I may not be able to see it..."

Ji Lan heard the teacher's whisper and felt uncomfortable. He knew what Parra meant by "that day."

It 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 Society."

Ji Lan thought for a while, then decided to change the topic to eliminate the sentimentality in the teacher's heart, and 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 Nobility'."

Parra explained with a smile.

As he explained, Gilan also learned information about these two secret societies.

Ningge Bookstore is 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 the collection of knowledge as their driving force and creed.

The most despised people are those who sell alchemy 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 aristocrats...'

Ji Lan secretly thought a few times.

Noticing Ms. Sade's smile, he was basically certain that the secret society called "Withering Nobles" was directly related to the three May Apostles.

"Jilan, you can try to make friends with these two secret societies. It will not be harmful to you or the empire."

Parra suggested.

"Okay, teacher." Jilan nodded in agreement.

Then, he thought for a while and asked:

"I feel like I'm not far away from level 6, but I haven't systematically understood the conditions required to advance to the original level of 'power'. I wonder if the teacher can clear up the confusion?"

"Hmm...huh?"

Parra nodded at first, then raised her head sharply.

"How long have you been promoted to level 5?"

"More than a month."

Gillan answered honestly.

Parra took a deep breath and fell into thought.

"Is it really because of the legendary 'saint' physique that he improved so quickly?"

"It's not impossible." Sade next to her lit up another cigarette and 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 The body contains four elements of the universe at the same time.”

"Perhaps this is destiny."

Parra sighed.

"I am destined to accept a 'saint' as my student before I die..."

As he said that, he looked at Jilan with eyes full of expectation, and even a hint of unnoticeable...

gratitude.

"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."

Parra laughed.

"That is to successfully find the God's Homeland 'Corridor' and leave a rumor in it."

"Leave a 'rumor' in the 'God's Homeland · Corridor'?"

Gilan was puzzled.

"Please help me, teacher."

"I'll answer for your teacher."

Sade shook her head and said casually:

"It's to let the residents of God's Homeland remember your deeds. The simplest way is to get to know an ascender who lives in the 'Corridor' and let him record your deeds. That's enough."

"It's very simple, right?"

"Uh..." Gilan was stunned. "It's really very simple."

Teacher Pala shook her head.

"It's only simple for you. For ordinary mystics, if they don't get lucky, where can they meet ascenders? This is nothing short of a fairy tale... Generally speaking, the difficulty of upgrading from level 5 to level 6 is very high, second only to the real ascension!"

Sade on the side couldn't help laughing.

Gilan took a deep breath and was overjoyed.

The original worries disappeared!
