Chapter 139 Holy Grail? Cup of Social Death
Chapter 139 Holy Grail? The cup of social death!
"The Golden Dawn."
Silvia looked at the emblem of this ancient extraordinary association and frowned slightly.
Sylvia was subconsciously a little repelled and disgusted by the fact that there might be more than one mysterious and supernatural association of ancient demigods here.
After all, all the misfortunes she had when she was young were all caused by the ancient gods, the road to godhood, and the evil cult... Therefore, even if she takes in half of Dusk's authority, the road to godhood is something she can embark on at will, but Sylvia also did not want to become a god, but chose the path to the throne.
What's more, according to Isadella's previous description... everything in Ceylon may have some unexplainable relationship with the Golden Dawn.
Although in this rewritten history, everything about Ceylon and the Borgia family may have also been rewritten to pieces... But the Golden Dawn is dominated by legends and demigods, so it is natural to have insight into the rewritten history. of historical original appearance.
"Golden Dawn, I don't know what their purpose is in sending me this letter."
Xia Ya also looked at the star-studded letter and fell into deep thought.
He also knew very little about the Golden Dawn. He only knew that there was such a mysterious organization and that it might be planning something. Depending on its strength and antiquity, it might be something high-end like the mastermind behind it.
But when it comes to his specific attitude towards himself, whether he is an enemy or a friend, etc... he has no idea at all.
"The other party has sent letters to my door. It's not a problem to ignore them all the time."
"Escape can't solve the problem, it can only solve yourself."
Xia Ya has never been the type to sit back and wait for death. When faced with potential threats and unknowns, he has always been more inclined to take the initiative.
However, he was not prepared to open the envelope so recklessly.
With the Golden Dawn's ancient history and mystique, even sending messages and sending legendaries into battle, and rescuing individuals involved demigods, maybe taking out something similar to the "Nailhead Book of Seven Arrows", which can curse you just by opening it. Holy relic.
Although he is immortal and Sylvia is by his side, he must be on guard against others. It would not be a good thing if a positioning mark or something is quietly placed on him.
"In the final analysis, we still need to have more information about the other party."
"Not only for the purpose of the Golden Dawn...but also to correct the wrong history, the empire and Her Majesty the Queen also need to collect current intelligence. The current state of the two is really not good."
Immortality is not invincible. Rushing in without any intelligence or preparation is undoubtedly a death penalty in Xia Ya's opinion.
Originally, Char's intelligence preparation work had been entrusted to the Secret Service of the Imperial Military Department or the Shadow Council.
It's a pity that now that the empire has become like that, the Secret Service will most likely be useless.
As for the Shadow Parliament... the Queen of the Night's previous attitude towards her was somewhat inexplicable, and coupled with some of Char's speculations after breaking away from the remnants of Esgania's history, it also made him a little reluctant to get in touch with her.
"It's not a problem to always rely on other forces to help collect intelligence."
“This kind of preparation still depends on the peace of mind that comes from being self-reliant.”
Thinking like this, Xia Ya's mental power fell on the blue light curtain in his mind and the product information displayed in it.

【Holy Grail of Knowledge】
[Rarity: Purple]
[Category: Holy Relics]
[Price: one hundred and seventy pieces]
[Description: In order to reproduce the "Black Cup", a forbidden object was created at the beginning of the birth of arcana and knowledge. 】
[Using "Holy Grail, Holy Grail" as the opening speech can answer any question of the questioner, but following the principle of equivalent exchange, the questioner needs to give secret knowledge of equal value, or answer in the presence of bystanders. A question for the Holy Grail. 】
[Note: Holy Grail, Holy Grail, I have a question, where is the opposite jungler in this wave? If you can't answer this question, then I can only give you 0 points for this transaction. 】
[You have purchased the "Holy Grail of Knowledge" and consumed 170 Sands of Time. The current number of Sands of Time remaining: 40.]
[You have obtained the "Holy Grail of Knowledge"]
…
Along with Xia Ya's thoughts, he moved slightly.
The next moment, a small and pure white Holy Grail slowly emerged from his palm.
This is Char's long-awaited plan to exchange the Sands of Time.
With his current strength, he is already powerful enough in terms of combat power.
The Black Knight mecha is a short-lasting version of a legend, not to mention that he has an immortal body and an unused mechanical structure.
If you use the Sands of Time to simply improve your strength, the benefits will not be too great due to the marginal effect.
Therefore, he only needs to keep part of the Sands of Time to increase proficiency and develop new skills. As for the rest, it is more cost-effective to spend it on exchanging extraordinary props or forbidden objects in the rule system.
And such a holy relic that can directly collect information is undoubtedly the best choice.
A dark glow spread out along with the ancient mystery surrounding the Holy Grail.
Aurora's expression did not change. She had long been accustomed to Char's crotch stamp, and she would not be surprised if Char took out any strange things from her space pocket.
On the contrary, Sylvia looked at the Holy Grail with some surprise, and pale golden words appeared in the void.
"The Holy Grail of Knowledge?"
Xia Ya looked at the witch lady beside him: "Xi Bao, do you know it?"
Xi Bao...means I am brother Xia Ya's treasure, big treasure?
Sylvia's body couldn't help but tremble. Although she had heard this nickname many times in lemon cat form, this was the first time she was called by Brother Xia himself.
However, she quickly and carefully restrained the joy in her heart, brushed her long silver hair, and nodded.
"It's some information I discovered when I went back in time when I achieved the throne."
"In the old era shrouded in the fog of history, a holy relic called the Black Cup once appeared."
"Its origin cannot be verified, but it is said that it is a universal wishing machine that can fulfill any wish of the wisher."
"It's just that after being contaminated by an ancient being above the stars, the Black Cup became distorted. Although it can still fulfill wishes, the way it is achieved will be distorted to varying degrees."
"For example, if I make a wish to become the strongest person in a village, then maybe the way to realize the wish is not to make me stronger, but to directly corrupt everyone who is stronger than me in the entire village into black mud and die. .”
Sylvia's eyes stayed on the white Holy Grail.
"The original Black Grail quickly disappeared into the dust of history and is hard to find. However, in later generations, countless powerful men wanted to imitate the Holy Grail and create a miraculous object that could fulfill all wishes, but most of them They all ended in failure.”
"The most successful imitation among them is the Holy Grail of Knowledge."
"The Holy Grail of Knowledge does not have the power of the original Black Grail to fulfill any wish. It can only answer the question of the questioner, but its side effects have also been greatly reduced."
"To a certain extent, the "omniscience" that knows the reason for the existence of all things in the world also means "omnipotence" to a certain extent."
"It is said that this is a sacred relic left by the eight-page mage who first created the Black Tower when the wizard profession was just born and the spark of arcane magic was just sprouting."
"It was born based on the soul crystals of dozens of original sages who pioneered the arcane arts. Its significance is more than just a holy relic."
"It is the embodiment of the original wizards' desire for truth, arcana, and knowledge of the rules of the world."
The pale golden text paused slowly.
"It's just that, just like countless buried histories, this sacred relic should have been buried in lost history and difficult to find."
"Furthermore, the blessing to open the Holy Grail of Knowledge has also been forgotten."
"Even if I get the Holy Grail of Knowledge now, I still can't open it without knowing the blessing... I remember Brother Char's teacher is one of the eight pages of the Black Tower, and I don't know if there are any records left in the Black Tower."
Char answered casually: "Oh, the congratulation should be "Holy Grail, Holy Grail." "
From Sylvia's words, Xia verified a guess.
That is, these extraordinary items and holy relics in the Sands of Time Mall were items that once existed in the Western Continent but were lost in past history for some reason, and are not original to the system.
From this point of view, the existence of the system is not so invisible.
the other side.
In an instant.
Sylvia's eyes were immediately locked on the pure white Holy Grail of Knowledge.
She didn't care how Brother Char obtained the Holy Grail of Knowledge, nor how Brother Char knew the Holy Grail Liberation Congratulations.
Since it's Brother Xia's secret, just help him keep it secret. Silvia doesn't want to be disliked by Brother Xia for getting to the bottom of it.
but--
Her eyes froze slightly.
Now that I know the opening words of the Holy Grail of Knowledge.
At this moment, Sylvia did have a question that she wanted to confirm.
The next moment.
"Holy Grail, Holy Grail, Brother Char is still a virgin now?"
"Holy Grail, Holy Grail, has Char exchanged bodily fluids with any other woman besides me?"
The pale golden text appeared at the same time along with Airola's cold voice.
The air seemed to freeze for a moment.
next moment.
The pure white Holy Grail of Knowledge suddenly emitted a dazzling light.
Immediately afterwards.
"It's a virgin."
"No."
Two short lines of text appeared on the surface of the Holy Grail of Knowledge.
After freezing for a moment, the Holy Grail seemed to have discovered something, and the light suddenly began to flicker.
"The contractor of the Storm Anchor... and a new era throne-level powerhouse actually just asked these two indistinguishable questions!"
The Holy Grail of Knowledge seemed to be excited, and even the writing speed of the font was speeding up.
Immediately afterwards, the next line of font appeared.
"First Respondent."
The Holy Grail of Knowledge drew an arrow toward Sylvia.
It swayed slightly happily, and then the new font appeared.
"Excuse me……"
"What did you do in the third-dimensional mezzanine of the Sleeping Plane attached to the White Tower, in the darkroom in the third room on the left after entering the corridor on the sixth floor of the castle?"
The moment I saw this problem.
The Cang Yin Witch's face instantly became extremely stiff.
