Chapter 503: The Approaching Truth
"Lieutenant General Iceberg" put down the dry food in his hand, took out the small mirror he carried with him, and spit out a sentence after a while:
"We are destined to meet the 'Finks Lion'."
Ma'am, you're talking more and more like a "magic stick" now, you know?
Abner complained in his heart, but on the surface he said thoughtfully: "Is there someone 'arranging' here?" β
In view of the previous incident of intercepting the "Immortal King" detachment, he was vaguely asking if there was a god of knowledge behind it.
"I don't know." Adevina shook her head at first, then showed a thoughtful look, and said thoughtfully, "However, the name Daniel Valley reminds me of a person. β
"Who?" Abner asked curiously.
"Mr. Daniel, the founder of the current system at the University of Lemburg, the founder of the journal impact factor system, and the master of magical pharmacy." Edwina replied with a look of reverence on her face.
"This ...... Why haven't I heard of him? Abner thought back for a moment, making sure he had no impression of the man...... Neither the original book nor his understanding of the world after crossing over, there is no trace of this person.
It stands to reason that a person who has made so many contributions cannot be so unknown.
"According to the relevant information I saw in the 'Tower of Wisdom', the master was not a person who liked to show off, he always seemed to 'temper' his desire to be famous, and he acted very low-key, and many of his creations were published in the name of others...... He was the only one who made a pure name that bore his real name, but the vast majority of people did not associate 'Daniel' with his name, thinking only that it meant 'to take care of a loved one' in the Hermetian language. "Lieutenant General of the Iceberg" Adevina gave a brief introduction to "Daniel" as she knew it.
"'Daniel' hydrosol?" Abner thought for a moment, and finally remembered an item associated with the name.
"Yes, it is the work of the master, and it is said that the use of this more beautiful tasting hydrosol as a sacrifice in a ritual directed at the goddess earth or the goddess of the night will be much more effective than normal rituals, especially the former...... However, as a believer in the God of Knowledge and Wisdom, I have not practiced it, and I do not know whether it is true or not. Advina nodded and said.
Hearing this description, Abner suddenly felt a little familiar, he thought about it, and asked tentatively, "Do you know the formula of Daniel hydrosol?" β
He performs rituals that either point to his "unknown land" or to the "fool". Either pointing to the almighty "God of Knowledge", except for making "Holy Night Powder" on the first day of travel, he really didn't pray to the goddess or Lilith...... Therefore, although I have heard of the name of "Daniel", I really haven't deliberately understood it.
Adevina bowed her head lightly and said, "Yes." β
As she spoke, she raised her right hand and wiped it on the dirt "wall" beside her, simulating earth-like spells to clean up a "blackboard", and spoke seriously.
Because there was plenty of time for the time being, Abner did not interrupt her habitual "playing", and also put on a posture of listening attentively.
However, Abner's expression soon became a little strange, because this so-called "Daniel" hydrosol was completely an enhanced version of the "Celeika Happy Water" that he had once formulated based on the recipe in the Book of Death.
It's just that the materials are more expensive and the preparation techniques are more complicated...... But the principle and the idea are completely the same......
According to available information, it is likely that Jane's ancestor "slumbered" in CalderΓ³n at the beginning of the Fifth Age, and that he certainly wrote the Necronomicon no later than that......
Could it be ...... This so-called Master Daniel is actually just a "scribe" who happened to get the Necronomicon? That's why it's so low-key?
But his talent in other areas is also outstanding, and many ideas are very advanced...... Wait, he's not going to be a time-traveler, is he? Or a thin-skinned traverser? Not as shameless as the Great...... But why did he "title" this hydrosol?
However, the Necronomicon should have been circulated in the Grant family after the "Baron Conwal", until it was brought into the mausoleum of the "Definitor" by a certain generation of descendants, and finally brought out by Jane......
Unless this Daniel is also a member of the Grant family, there should be no chance to see ...... Is it really a coincidence? Did his train of thought overlap with that "Archon of Death"?
Thinking of this, Abner asked the "Lieutenant General of the Iceberg": "What is the surname of this master?" β
"Master Daniel's origin is mysterious, he suddenly appeared and disappeared, and even the 'Tower of Wisdom' does not record his surname, and it is not known where he ended up...... However, after reading the "Spiritual Experience" you brought me last time, I think he is likely to be the embodiment of one of the Seven Lights of the Spiritual Realm, perhaps a member of the Brotherhood of Pure Light. Adevina thought about it, wiped off the "hydrosol formula" on the blackboard, and wrote with a picture.
It is indeed possible...... In addition to the time-travelers, Seven Lights always likes to do this kind of thing to teach human development...... But that doesn't explain why he keeps a low profile in other things, but he has to be named Pure Dew......
However, this question was destined to be unanswered for the time being, so Abner could only put it aside for the time being, and then led the conversation to the original question, saying, "Why do you think of the master by the name of that valley?" Daniel is common in Hermes, right? β
"The lingua franca of the southern continent is the 'Dutan language' of the former Bailang Empire, and most of the place names are named in this language...... And I looked up the information about the 'Lion of Finx' after Maria told me where it was...... After connecting them just now, I found that the origin of its name is very close to the era of Master Daniel. Edwina explained as she wrote a series of examples of place names in the southern continent on the "blackboard".
"I see...... Maybe he finally disappeared suddenly, and he used some method to pass through the raging sea, which was not navigable at that time, and went to the southern continent......" Abner said thoughtfully.
"I suspect he's from the Southern Continent...... His method of making some potions, his deliberate 'moderation' actions...... There are shadows of the 'Rose School' temperance school...... And as you said, the military's squad transporting certain items has been being blocked by the 'Rose School'. At this moment, Edwina fully demonstrates her logical and analytical skills as a "reader".
Rose School...... Military...... Wait, I remember that the military did not hesitate to offend the Storm Church and forcibly withheld "1-025", and Hugh also sent the secret puppet of the "Wind Favorer" back to ease the relationship......
And "1-025" is essentially the "Silent Disciple" trait of Sequence 3!
Could it be that the military is planning to transport it to the Southern Continent?
Does it have anything to do with Daniel? Or is it simply Daniel's legacy?
And the military wants to use it to find Daniel's other relics?
So exciting...... What will it be?
β¦β¦
On the edge of Daniel's Valley, Jane braved the rain to walk around the neighborhood and found nothing but signs of human activity.
"Although the queen said it was Lake Daniel...... But it's really a valley here......"
"The Queen wants me to find here the lair of a transcendent creature called the 'Lion of the Finks...... According to her, the lion was specially kept here by Russell the Great...... And she asked me to take a 'tarot card' from her lair......
"But there's no lions to be found here...... There are no nests...... Could it be that they were hunted by other people who were operating here? β
After muttering a few words to herself, Jane looked up at the dense dark clouds in the sky again, frowned again, and said in a silent voice:
"And this rain, it seems to be getting heavier!"
