Chapter 339 Mermaids and Migratory Birds
Charles Gustave was actually somewhat at peace before his death.
As the eldest son of Emperor Roselle, he lived a peaceful life under his father's protection. His elder sister and younger brother each had their own paths to success, so he didn't need to worry about them. Rather than getting caught up in the political vortex that followed and becoming a burden to Bernadette and Bonois, he preferred to end it all.
Unexpectedly, his elder sister, who had been away from Intis for many years, suddenly returned and rescued him in a special way. He even crossed the threshold of being half-human and half-god. Although he now has the body of a "puppet," what's wrong with that? At least he will never suffer from kidney deficiency. If his kidneys break, he can just rebuild them.
That damn Trier, not even a dog would come back. He's a demigod living in seclusion in Bayam, with virtually no power that can threaten him. He works as a craftsman, earning some spare money, and occasionally goes to the Red Theater to drink hand-ground coffee. These two hundred years have passed like two months.
Charles Gustav started calculating with Bernadette, "This body I have now, forged from life, is a creation of yours right after you became an angel. Not only does it not age, but after so many years of adjustment by me, it can also nourish my spirit."
"If I were truly resurrected by you, how many years could a Sequence 4 body live? Sister, you don't expect me to become an angel like you, do you?"
"I'm doing fine now."
Charles Gustav was quite content; he never expected his sister to have arranged such a comfortable backup plan for him.
As long as he remains a "mechanical life form" or a "life-forged product," both Bernadette and Bonova can take care of him. Even if his body is completely destroyed, Bonova can rebuild him. If he were to truly be resurrected, wouldn't this benefit be lost?
Bonova is a little more indifferent now, but with his brother shattered in front of him, Charles Gustave refuses to believe that Bonova won't piece himself back together!
Bernadette looked at Charles lying completely flat and sighed silently in her heart. It seemed that her teacher had arranged everything very well. All she could do for her younger brother was to provide him with the extraordinary characteristics of a Sequence 3 Mystic Scholar within the framework set by her teacher, and seal them into Charles's body as a heart, allowing him to digest them naturally over time.
When one reaches the Sequence 4 Alchemist path of the Perfectionist, one can achieve Life Transmutation, imbuing one's creations with a soul. After advancing to the Sequence 3 Arcane Scholar path, one can draw life force from creatures within a 5-kilometer radius to extend one's own life.
Charles could be resurrected, and even after resurrection, he could still extend his life through the abilities of the arcane scholars, but he simply refused.
After going through a life-or-death ordeal, Bernadette did consider elevating her younger brother to angel, but since Charles chose to remain in the realm of demigods, she could only respect his choice. Compared to what Zarathustra had predicted, Charles's original fate was already much better now. However, if Charles wasn't an angel, Bernadette would have to keep the matter of their father a secret.
"Sister, what brings you to Bayam?"
After enduring the excessive concern from his parents, Xia Er finally had the chance to ask.
"I've come to see Cattleya."
Bernadette said without changing her expression.
3 month 7 day.
At the Tarot meeting, Klein and Gadria reached an agreement to travel to the Sea of Ruins in April aboard the Future to search for the mermaid.
Xia Er, however, subtly indicated that he could sing if the ceremony required it. This was not nonsense; according to the audience's free judgment, his singing could perfectly replace the mermaid's singing in the 5th promotion ceremony.
However, the indifferent Mr. World decisively rejected this offer, which also required money. Even though it might actually work, and the screen recording function of the Gray Fog Space would make the process very convenient, "World" Klein still refused. He would be crazy to accept it; he would rather travel through mountains and rivers to find the mermaid in the dangerous ruins of the God War!
"Are mermaids only found in those remote seas?"
"Justice," Audrey asked curiously, adding that she would also like to see the legendary mermaid if possible.
"It is said that the Church of the Night and the Church of Knowledge and Wisdom both keep mermaids, but these are not easy to come into contact with."
"The Hermit" Cattleya explained that these resources, controlled by the Church of the True God, are more dangerous to wild extraordinary individuals and potential cultists than a journey through the ruins of a divine war.
"Angel" Xia'er glanced at the Hermit Lady, thinking, "You dare bring the Rose Bishop into the ruins of the Gods? Let's see how your mother teaches you a lesson later."
"Many people know that there are mermaids near Dixi Bay, but almost no one dares to poach them."
Xia'er's words caused Audrey and Fors, who were sitting on either side of him, to look over in surprise. The two ladies wondered if they had misheard. Mermaids in Dixi Bay? How could that be?
Dixi Bay is a famous resort destination, and many families from Backlund go there for vacation every winter. How could there possibly be mermaids there?
"Mr. Angel, is this true?"
How could she not know? She has a small plantation over there.
Audrey found it hard to believe that Dipsy Bay was so close to human cities.
"Take the opportunity to go out and explore more; it's no secret that extraordinary abilities exist at sea."
"Especially some large ports."
Shael helplessly shrugged. In the four countries dominated by the arbitrators and hunters, the extraordinary are not allowed to be out in the open, but this is not absolute. It only restricts ordinary people. The Church of the True God and the extraordinary nobles can still do whatever they want.
Audrey recalled the general map. Dixi Bay was located at the southern border of the Kingdom of Rune and the Kingdom of Fennepot. However, outside the mainland, the islands in Dixi Bay were also inhabited by the god of knowledge and wisdom, and it was a large free port.
But the environment of Dixi Bay... A nautical chart she had seen came to mind, and Audrey's thoughts gradually became clearer. She blurted out, "Do the mermaids raised by the Church of Knowledge and Wisdom migrate between the Misty Sea and the Raging Sea? And rest near some islands or reefs along the way?"
"That's right."
"The Hermit" Cattleya nodded and explained, "This kind of activity path was formed a long time ago. The reason why there is a free port in Dixi Bay that worships the god of knowledge and wisdom is also due to some historical issues that have not been resolved since the War of the Oath in Feneport."
"Don't think that the official organizations' vigilance and control over wild superhumans is too strict."
"In the early Fifth Age, that was when things were truly brutal. Even spreading potion recipes and mystical knowledge was a sin. In the Fourth Age, many low-sequence potion recipes were public knowledge."
