Although Franca was talking about Intis language, Lumian was still confused and had no idea what it meant or what it expressed.

He looked around and saw that the area around the burned building was still quiet and there was nothing unusual, so he said, "Can you explain it?"

Franca thought about it for a few seconds and said, "'Son of Heaven' is roughly equal to 'emperor', 'Daoist', well, just think of it as the powerful Beyonder."

"The meaning of the whole sentence is probably that the emperor with the title of 'Blood-Colored' destroyed Hell and brought turmoil, and the Daoist priest with the title of 'Underworld', uh, powerful Beyonder, gave up his life and entered a certain river. The purpose should be to seal Emperor That One."

The emperor with the title of "Blood-Colored"...Lumian was shocked:

"'Blood Emperor'?"

He suddenly recalled the scenes he saw in "Samaritan Woman Spring":

The blurry figure of "Blood Emperor" Burning is holding the invisible Flames, and the armor is stained with blood and broken; the dark water flow repeats the process of retracting from the spring and rushing out; such water flow combines with the surrounding light mist, becoming It became the spring water of Paleness; the afterimage of Alista·Tudor was pulled back to the spring Depths by the strange force at the last moment. There seemed to be a fierce battle between the two sides...

Following Franca's description, Lumian made new guesses about the sentence "Armored Wraith" and his own experience.

He said to Franca thoughtfully, "I suspect that the 'Blood-Colored Son of Heaven' you are talking about is the afterimage of 'Blood Emperor' Alista·Tudor."

"But why did the afterimage of 'Blood Emperor' end up on my Homeland?" Franca didn't immediately think of Alista·Tudor, but I think Lumian's inference makes sense.

The special fish-scale armor and "Heng-Ha Art" originating from myths and legends made her suspect that "Armored Wraith" came from Homeland, and now that the languages are basically matching, she is even more sure.

Lumian nodded slightly and said, "This has to start with me and 'Hella' Lady going to get 'Samaritan Woman Spring'..."

"Did you go with 'Hella' Lady?" Franca muttered, but did not urge Lumian to answer, and listened to him continue to describe.

After Lumian briefly talked about the details of what he saw and experienced at "Samaritan Woman Spring", he directly stated his guess without giving Franca a chance to think divergently:

"I suspect that in 'War of the Four Emperors', 'Blood Emperor' did not die completely, but retained part of its soul due to some special reasons. In that divine battle, our world and you A passage was opened in the world where Homeland was, allowing a mysterious river from your Homeland to seep through, and was sealed by Mr. 'The Fool', creating 'Samaritan Woman Spring'.

"The river should be closely related to death, Underworld and other fields. The afterimage of 'Blood Emperor' in the state of death was involved, going back and forth between your Homeland and 'Samaritan Woman Spring', and even Fourth Epoch and Trier.

"'Blood Emperor' still has a certain instinct to want Resurrection, and the first step for Resurrection is to get rid of the imprisonment of the river. In the process, He gives you Homeland's Hell brought turmoil, and the powerful Beyonder, who belonged to the realm of death and Underworld, had to sacrifice himself and sink into the mysterious river in order to fully exert its power and completely seal the afterimage of 'Blood Emperor'."

Franca was sometimes confused and sometimes sober. When Lumian finished, he said with surprise and doubt, "Your guess seems to be quite real, very logical..."

That explains very well the words of "Armored Wraith" and various phenomena within "Samaritan Woman Spring".

Franca was silent for a while and then said, "In my Homeland, that mysterious and illusory river should be called 'Yellow Springs'.

"But before I Transmigration, 'Yellow Springs' and 'Underworld' were both mythical legends that no one could confirm, and there were no myths related to 'Blood-Colored Son of Heaven' or 'Underworld Daoist'..."

"Is it because I am ordinary and out of reach?"

Lumian smiled:

"Before I discovered that Aurora was 'Warlock', there was no supernatural power or Demon Ghost."

Franca said "hmm" and his expression gradually became excited:

"Now that there is a passage between the two worlds, our return to Homeland is no longer an illusory dream!"

"'Hella'Lady said that if you touch the spring water of Paleness, you will die." Lumian reminded him "kindly".

Franca's expression was stiff for a few seconds and he said, "That's just for us now. Maybe with Divinity and becoming Saint, we can get in touch."

"The figures of Angel and True God are both imprisoned in the spring." Lumian reminded again.

"..." Franca rolled his eyes at Lumian, "Are you annoyed? Compared with before, I had no ideas, no direction, and no hope. Now there is a little light, and I know where to strive,'Hella' One of the reasons why Lady went to get 'Samaritan Woman Spring' may be to confirm the situation of the illusory river to see if it is 'Yellow Springs'. It is indeed 'Hella' Lady, and he can find clues faster than all of us!"

Lumian shrugged his shoulders invisibly, and did not dampen Franca's high mood and enthusiasm.

Franca walked back and forth a few steps excitedly, and suddenly asked a question:

"You were just asking where 'Armored Wraith' comes from, and why does it say things like 'Blood Emperor' and 'Underworld Daoist'?"

This is an inappropriate answer!

Could there be any secrets hidden?

Lumian thought for a while and said, "It is Shadows that was born after death, and some of its abilities are obviously in Death Domain... It also has the urge to break free from restraints and Imprisonment... Combining these points, I think it is a ghost-like creature sealed by That One'Underworld Daoist'. If you ask where it comes from, you cannot avoid the current state of 'Underworld Daoist', so I came up with the answer just now."

Franca suddenly realized:

"That makes sense!

"It was broken Golden Body and sealed by 'Underworld Daoist', so it is necessary to collect gold to rebuild Golden Body and escape from imprisonment?"

Seeing that Lumian looked puzzled again, Franca briefly explained the definition of Golden Body and his own understanding.

"That's right." Lumian nodded slowly, "Maybe we can continue to trade gold with 'Armored Wraith' in the future, but we can't really restore it to its original state. This guy is very dangerous and has strong malice. Once he gets rid of the seal, I don't know what he will do."

Franca deeply agrees:

"At least we have to wait until we are promoted Sequence 4 before we consider this matter."

Lumian said "yo":

"Didn't you say that it is very difficult to obtain Divinity and become Saint? Are you so confident now?"

"Isn't this about finding a goal, being full of motivation, and fantasizing about it?" Franca glanced at Lumian, "Fuck, are we taking each other's script?"

She remembered that not long ago she said that Lumian thought it was too easy to open Door of Divinity and jump to Pathway.

Lumian chuckled and said, "It's good to have goals and motivation. Well, next week is the party of 'Curly-Haired Baboon Research Society'. Do you want to inform others about 'Armored Wraith', 'Blood Emperor', 'Underworld Daoist', and 'Yellow Springs'?"

"I would do this in the past, but everyone had to charge a fee, but now, I don't dare to share it until I understand the problem of 'April Fool's Day'." Franca said thoughtfully, "But you can ask about the illusory river involving death and see who has the corresponding information."

Lumian thought for a moment and said, "Let me ask."

Franca was stunned for two seconds, and then understood the reason:

Lumian is "Samaritan Woman Spring" who went with "Hella" Lady. It is more reasonable for this companion pretending to be "Muggle" to ask about the relevant situation. There are antecedents and thinking, which is completely logical.

You know, at "Hella", Lumian and "Sleeve Sword" don't know each other yet. If Franca mentions the river of death rashly, he will definitely be suspected.

Monday, Franca Red House Café Chaillot Town again.

Different from before, although she still used "Lie" to look like Black-Haired and Brown-Eyed, her clothes were more everyday, wearing shirts and trousers with boots.

This is to make That One "Witch" think that she is Men turned into Witch, so that she will not directly take action whenever there is an opportunity without any communication.

It is a pity that the "Witch" of Orange-Red Long Hair did not show up all morning, but two Women customers took different opportunities to chat with Franca, and the conversation was very pleasant.

Franca was drinking coffee and dealing with these chatters without any urgency at all.

She wondered why Lumian was not in a hurry, but instead told herself to take her time. You know, if you don't clear out those Core Members in "Bliss Society" who are close to Suzanne Matisse as soon as possible, he will always be in the shadow of "Rose School".

Lumian has reported the matters of "Bliss Society", "Rose School" and Red House Café Women's Revelry Party to "Magician" Lady, and the reply received is very simple:

"If you don't leave Trier in the near future, there will be no big problem."

Lumian lit the letter paper, left Nightingale Street, and walked toward Market Avenue.

When he was approaching Breeze Ballroom, he saw a familiar figure.

That man Eyes Deep Brown, with a high nose, a full chin Linen-Colored beard, and clothes similar to the ancient Warlock Robe, was the one who led Lumian to join Mr. K Occult Gathering's "Secret Supplicant" Aosta·Special Roul.

"My cabbage." Lumian asked with a smile, "What are you doing here?"

Aosta·Special Roul replied with a rather magnetic voice, "Go to Baron Brignais to clear the debt."

"Are you rich?" Lumian raised his eyebrows.

Aosta·Te Roul smiled slightly and said, "Yes, I just discovered that some Honorific Name in the knowledge that comes with Potion can be prayed for, and there is no danger. This has given me a lot of help."

Lumian was stunned for a moment, raised his right hand with Gloom eyes, and tapped his chest four times in the order of up, down, left, and right.

Aosta responded with the same gesture and smiled even more cordially.

Lumian did not say any more pleasantries, waved his hand, and passed this "Secret Supplicant".

He arrived in silence at the white Orb type Statues composed of skulls outside Breeze Ballroom, and sighed softly.

At nine o'clock in the evening, Lumian, who had already returned to Room 207, Golden Rooster Inn and was waiting, finally saw a letter from the skull head made of pure silver with Burning inside Eye Sockets and Pale Flame inside.

The letter comes from "Hella" and the content is quite brief:

"There will be a party in an hour.

"If you want to participate, just recite the following Incantation silently within five minutes before and after ten o'clock."
