Chapter 856 Upgrading Materials

After Paimon took some time to accept the fact that the pure water spirit could dissolve the Fontaine people, Caterpillar continued to tell the truth about the past.

Rene took the pure water elf Lilith away and used her characteristics to conduct human dissolution experiments.

Sora thought of Vache, the mastermind behind the serial disappearances of young girls. His experimental plan to dissolve the Fontaine Girls and replace them with Vinier was based on Rene and Jacob's notes.

As the Narcissus Cross Society continues to grow, its members reveal more and more traces and flaws.

The Shadow Chaser hunted the Narcissus Cross for a long time, and finally a great battle took place within Erinus' body.

"Marianne Guillotin was also a member of the Shadow Chasers. Even though she was protected by a clockwork device specially built by her brother Alain Guillotin, she still died in the explosion."

Catepila still remembered the chaotic battlefield. The explosion caused the flying clockwork parts to pierce the flesh of Erinus, and human blood and body parts mixed with the blood of monsters were scattered all over the ground.

The pure water elf Lilith found one of her children from this hellish scene and hugged Marianne, who was still alive.

With her limited intelligence, she didn't know how to keep her child, so she did the only thing she knew how to do -

Lilith dissolved Marianne.

Katepila: "I said before that I was arrested during an association activity, this incident."

Sora: "Then how did you know what happened to Lilith and Marianne later?"

Shortly after being imprisoned, Catepila escaped once and went to the former battlefield to look for Lilith and Marian.

Without finding the answer, Caterpillar returned to the Gestalt, only to discover that the situation there had become complicated. Many members of the association had disappeared, and Master Rene was nowhere to be seen.

After the explosion, Alain Guillotin followed in his sister's footsteps and joined the Shadow Chasers, launching a larger-scale and more intense hunt for the Narcissus Cross Society.

Caterpillar did not see the master, so Jacob came forward and took him to the ruins of Narcissus Cross Courtyard.

Caterpillar saw many pure water phantoms and the pure water elf An who wanted to save the "princess".

He also joined that adventure, entered the sleeping place, and wanted to wake up the "princess" who was immersed in her dream.

"But I failed. Jacob said, 'It seems you are not a true knight either, but it doesn't matter. The master has already reserved a place for the Guillotin siblings in the new world.'"

Paimon: "So... it was Rene and Jacob who helped Lilith and Marianne complete the fusion and decomposition, and sent them back to Narcissus Cross?"

Caterpillar nodded.

Sora: "That place is indeed enveloped by a certain power, which is why it has been hidden for hundreds of years."

If An hadn't seen Su in knight's clothes and came to ask for help, they probably wouldn't have found the place.

In addition, judging from the subtext of what Jacob said, René did not seem to have given up on completely restoring Marianne.

Su sneered, "Tsk, the evildoer's last bit of guilt and conscience."

Jacob left after seeing the result, and before leaving, he announced that Caterpillar could leave the Narcissus Cross Society and do what he wanted.

Not knowing where to go or what to do, Caterpillar chose to return to Melo Petersburg and began hundreds of years of atonement, until he left there this time to send Lenore home.

Caterpillar was distracted for a second, then brought the subject back to the topic, "If it were you, maybe you could complete the Holy Sword and save Marianne."

The Traveler Team started a small team meeting.

Paimon: "I didn't expect that the Marian that Seymour asked us to find and the "princess" that the little pure water elf Ann wanted to save would be the same person!"

Su: "Can they be considered the same person? That "princess" looks like a pure water spirit incarnate. Her appearance is completely different from the picture in the pocket watch."

Paimon also felt that the current situation of "Marianne" was extremely complicated. After thinking about it without any results, he simply gave up and said, "... Let's just assume that she has grown up."

After a few more words to discuss the situation, Su agreed to postpone the plan to beat Rene and Jacob, and first follow Caterpillar to collect materials to upgrade the holy sword.

With Caterpillar, a saint of the Narcissus Cross Society, as their guide, the team of travelers efficiently arrived at the underwater ruins where Rene had hidden something.

"Solve the puzzle?" Su decisively pushed forward the smartest member of the team, "Kong, you do it!"

A short, poetic riddle inscribed on a stone tablet.

"This is the quadrant of memory, the hall of memory, the space between memories."

"Born in an instant, always at odds with you, sleeping with you forever, never apart"

"The raging fire cannot reach"

"Su, don't give up so quickly. Puzzles and reasoning are also very interesting." Paimon touched his chin, "Hmm, something that stays with a person from birth to death and never separates...that's something in the human body! But the raging fire can't touch it..."

Sora already had the answer, "It's 'Shadow'."

The moment light appears, shadows are also born, and then accompany the subject throughout his life, never to be separated.

In mysticism, shadows are often closely associated with the soul and consciousness, which is relevant to Rene's research.

Sora submitted the answer and successfully retrieved the memory block.

A group of people swam quickly to the next location.

"This is the quadrant of wishes, the temple of wishes, the place of wishes."

"Born in an instant, always at odds with you, sleeping with you forever, never apart"

The fruit of sin

Paimon: "Wow, why is this part exactly the same as the riddle just now? Is there something else that stays with people forever?"

Caterpillar had already guessed it. "The answer is 'life.' The Master believes that the people of Fontaine are all sinners, lives tainted with original sin."

"Original sin..." Sora chewed on the word.

Is the original sin of the people of Fontaine due to Eugolia creating life against the will of heaven?

Then why don’t the pure water elves, who were also created by Egolia, have this “original sin”?

A group of people went to the third location.

"This is the quadrant of the soul, the temple of the soul, the place between souls."

"Born in an instant, always at odds with you, sleeping with you forever, never apart"

"The greatest treasure on earth"

Paimon reacted quickly, "The greatest treasure in the world...the answer is 'wealth'!"

Su showed an expression that was hard to describe. "Paimeng, your values ​​are not very good. There are many things more important than wealth."

Could it be that because she has completed fewer tasks recently and doesn't seem to have earned much Mora, Paimon is starting to worry about living expenses again?

Paimon scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "I guess wealth thinks that if everyone doesn't have to worry about money and can live happily without working hard, then everyone will be happy."

Because of the profits from her friends, she had a lot of Mora, but after Inazuma donated some to post-war refugees and Sumi donated some to the Hope Project, she only had a little pocket money left.

If only a large fortune fell from the sky, she could send some supplies to the children of Gray River.

Su hugged Paimon, "Paimon is my most precious treasure! I love you the most!"

Transfer money! As soon as we get back to Fontaine, transfer a large sum of money to Paimeng's account!
