Chapter 33: The Light Egg

On September 2, at 1:14 a.m., the northern suburbs of Youkexin City.

As the red taillights faded away in the darkness, Kurapika returned her gaze to Heather's box.

It was a tightly sealed metal box, and it was carried securely in Heather's hands.

"Senior brother, is this what you want to take?"

Kurapika is a little curious, it is certainly not an ordinary object that can make a lazy person like Heather go to the suburbs at night to trade with a group of strange-looking men in black.

Syllable! Kurapika picked up an old book with a shabby appearance that he threw over, and turned it over to see that there was a line of red font printed on the cover of the pure gray background - "Those Vanishing Divine Weapons".

"Get in the car and start reading on page 45."

With Kurapika's status as the bodyguards of the Nothra gang, the two Heather were able to re-enter the city smoothly, and the black sedan drove towards the south of Youkexin City.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Kurapika flipped to page 45 with the help of the lights in the car and began to read.

[Light Egg] - a strange artifact held by the Great Mystic Master Kai Yuan 2,000 years ago. Kai Yuan was the protector of the Gubalote Empire, but due to a conflict of ideas, he left the Gubalott Empire and embarked on a legendary adventure that will be celebrated by future generations (see chapters 3 to 6 of the epic poem "Chant" for details).

In the uncharted sea known as the Black Sea, Kai Yuan and his elven companion Ilf defeated the Kraken Kuraken with great difficulty and dug up this legendary treasure from its skull.

There are many opinions about the appearance of the "light egg", and there are as many as 27 kinds of records of its appearance on poems, documents, murals and other carriers, but the most frequent appearance is the form recorded in the "Song of Songs".

These are four stone balls, each about the size of a ten-year-old child's palm, and the surface of the balls is engraved with different runes in the Gubalott language, which means "radiance", "sacredness", "purity", and "compassion".

In the hands of the Grand Mystic Master Kai Yuan, this powerful artifact has a variety of incredible effects - Kai Yuan used it to heal his elven companion Irfu who was eaten off by the evil dragon Dada; purified the Gubarot Emperor, who was haunted by terrible doom; Completely resist the poisonous smoke and black fire of the evil dragon Dada; Forcibly demoted the Hundred Eyes Demon to the Three-Eyed Demon.

Many folklorists and occult experts believe that these four miracles correspond to the four Gubalote runes engraved on the stone fetal ball, but some people in the industry reject this view, believing that the runes engraved on the stone ball represent the emerging beliefs of the people of the Gubalote Empire at that time, and it is precisely because they are contrary to the Winter King believed by the royal family, which led to the disintegration of the Gubalote Empire.

Since the fifth chapter of the "Anthem", Kai Yuan no longer uses the [Light Egg], and this artifact seems to have suddenly disappeared from the entire epic chapter, and the reason for this is not recorded in any of the documents.

"Senior brother, you don't want to say that what is in the box is the [Light Egg] mentioned in the book, right?"

Kurapika was startled, and the box she was holding in her arms suddenly became more precious. If this kind of super-ancient cultural relics that came out of the mythical era still have extraordinary abilities, I am afraid that the auction price will soar to more than 100 billion!

"Don't worry, the things in the box don't have extraordinary abilities anymore, they are ordinary collectibles, well, collectibles worth 14.2 billion."

After the pursuing force was completely wiped out by the brigade, Youkexin City regained some calm, at least on the surface. Heather's black sedan weaves from street to street, which is noticeably empty, and is constantly getting closer to her destination.

Ten minutes later, the two appeared in a hidden basement.

This is one of the secret strongholds of the wealthy Batra in Youkexin City, and only Batra himself and a few trusted friends know the exact location of this place, which stores daily necessities, a small number of weapons, and about tens of millions of nuns in cash.

Heather walked to the middle of the basement and placed the box on the ground and gently opened it, revealing its contents.

There are four broken stone balls placed tightly in the box with partitions, and the surface of these stone balls can barely be seen to be engraved with mysterious runes, but the main body is missing and most of them are broken, it can be seen that they are all destroyed by a strong external force, and there is no overflow of any mental qi at all, which is an ordinary ancient artifact.

In addition to the four stone balls, there was also a piece of paper in the box, on which it was written-

[On April 3, 1990, an archaeological team was formed by the Gubalote Cultural Development Association and the Snow Country Foundation to excavate a group of ruins buried deep at the bottom of the mountain at the site of the Gubalotte Empire (now a protected area in the Republic of Batochia). 】

[Based on the style of the funerary goods and the murals inside the ruins, experts believe that this group of ruins is related to the mysterious disappearance of the great mystic master Kai Yuan recorded in the epic "Song of Songs". 】

[At the end of the ruins is a sealed stone tomb, in which there are no corpses in the sarcophagus, only four broken stone balls scattered around.] 】

[Highly suspected mythical weapon 'Light Egg'.] 】

[On September 4, 1993, at the Youkexin auction, the wealthy Batra won this collection at a high price of 14.2 billion rings. 】

[According to expert identification, this collection does not possess any extraordinary abilities.] 】

Kurapika finished reading what was written on the paper, and looked up at Heather worriedly: "Senior brother......"

It can be seen that Senior Brother has spent a lot of effort to get this ancient treasure, but it has lost all its extraordinary effects, will this affect Senior Brother's plan? Will it cause twists and turns in the operation of the sniper Mirage Brigade or even shatter the plan as a result?

Heather carefully pulled the four stone balls out of the box, placed them in front of him one by one, and then sat cross-legged on the floor, his hands hanging over them.

"Little cool cool, I'll leave it to you next."

"Huh?"

"I'm going to use my telekinetic ability to reforge these four stone balls, even I don't know how long it will take, and there may be a lot of movement during this period, please help me protect the Dharma and try to get rid of all the factors that will disturb me."

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I see. ”

Kurapika shook her right hand slightly, the five slender chains between her fingers made a crisp sound, and there was only composure and determination on her face:

"No one can interfere with you until I die."

Heather smiled slightly, closed her eyes and began to release the suppression of her own thoughts, the violent thoughts were stagnant at first, and then suddenly exploded!

The terrifying and fierce Nian Qi Pillar of Fire rose into the sky, but because it was deep underground and was obscured by the tall buildings at the top, it was difficult for even those with mental abilities to discover the mystery if they did not approach.

The four stone balls began to tremble continuously under the powerful mental qi of the brilliant flames.

【Light Egg】Reforged begins!
