Chapter 500: Thunder Change
Staring at the map spread out on the table, Dorothy's eyes were filled with a rare look of horror. She had never imagined that she could see a map in this secret passage that had such a huge error from the reality. What on earth was this continent that was one-third larger than the current map?
Although the map in this secret document was very simply drawn, with very rough and blurred lines and many details not shown, the general outline was still very accurate. Except for the eastern part of the continent, other parts did not have serious deformation problems that were inconsistent with the current map. However, Dorothy was sure that this was not a mistake made by the person who drew the map, but that he really wanted to draw it like this.
The picture on this secret document is a copy of a mural from the imperial period of the last century. However, the map of this third century shows a much larger land area than it is now. What does this mean?
With all kinds of doubts, Dorothy looked at the map in front of her and thought a lot. In her memory, she recalled the message she saw beside the Mirror Moon Altar when she was in the underground ruins of Guanda. It was left by the priest of the Mirror Moon Goddess. It said... They had to leave Put and go to a distant place because of some kind of agreement. No one knew where this distant place was, only that it was in the east.
"To the east... there is a large area on the map of the Third Age... the place where the clergy of the Mirror Moon faith migrated collectively. What is there in that place?"
Thinking of this, Dorothy looked out the window, towards the distant eastern sky, with all kinds of thoughts in her mind. After staring at that place for a long time, she gradually shifted her attention back to the secret message.
"I feel like... I have learned a lot of incredible secrets this time, but for now these secrets are not very useful to me. Spirituality is more practical."
Dorothy thought so, and then she spiritually extracted the content she absorbed from the secret teachings in front of her, and then she gained 5 "lights", 3 "shadows", and 2 "inspirations", a total of 10 points of spirituality.
Sitting in the chair, Dorothy was slightly startled after extracting the spirituality, and then focused her attention on the types of spirituality she had just extracted. In this secret transmission, she extracted the two opposing spiritualities of "light" and "shadow" at the same time, which also confirmed some of her previous guesses.
'So... the curved line in this picture symbolizes 'shadow'. The god in the sun holds two opposing spiritual symbols in his hands. Could it be that he wants to control these two contradictory forces at the same time?
"In Xia Shu's document about the goddess of abundance, I also extracted a small amount of 'stone'. The situation here is very similar. Does this mean that the goddess of abundance is also trying to explore the power of 'stone'? Then what about Hades? Why would these pure-color gods of the Third Age ignore their own opposing spiritual species and become interested in them?"
For a moment, Dorothy began to try to speculate the intentions of the Pure Color Gods in the Third Age, why they were interested in spirituality that was opposed to themselves, and whether this was related to the collective loss of faith in the Pure Color Gods. However, due to the lack of information, she gave up for the time being after failing to come to any reliable conclusions, and instead continued to extract spirituality.
The next spirituality that Dorothy was going to extract was the information obtained in the Qiwen Temple, which mainly contained a complete set of advancement methods for the Chicheng stage, which brought Dorothy a huge spiritual improvement of 4 points for each spirituality.
Dorothy then calculated her own consumption in the battle with Mukhtar. Due to the spirituality provided by the temple, although she struck countless thunders, the spirituality consumed by the Howling Path ability was zero. The main consumption point was using the "cup" to stabilize her own state and transfer injuries, and the "shadow" of the ring was completely photographed.
Dorothy spent 1 "cup" using the Life Eater, and used the Damage to transfer a large area of 10 times chest damage that was smashed a few times, spending 7 "cups". The "shadow" of the ring suddenly lost 5 points and needed to be recharged.
Taking all the additions and subtractions into account, Dorothy’s spiritual condition now looked like this.
24 cups, 12 stones, 22 shadows, 25 lights, 25 silence, 50 enlightenment.
'This spirituality... has suddenly become much richer, especially the 'Lamp', which was only in the single digits before, and now it has jumped by 25 points. It is worthy of being the reward for killing a red-blooded 'Lamp'. It really is what you get...
'Besides, now, except for the Stone, all the spirits seem to have met the requirements for promotion, which is faster than expected. As for the Stone, there is no need to worry too much. The Qiwen Temple Library is there now. Although most of the content is incomprehensible, if you spend some time, you should be able to find some general knowledge content with poison identification. Then you can make up for the Stone.'
Dorothy thought so in her mind. Most of the books in the Temple of Qiwen were written in ancient Ufeija language, and only a small part was in common language. However, she did not have permission to read many of the common language books, so the content she could read was very limited. It would take time to search for them.
"Anyway, given the current situation, I won't be leaving Addis in the next few days, so I'll look for it inside when I have the chance."
After making up her mind, Dorothy began to distribute the war supplies. Since the success of this battle was the result of efforts from many parties, the final war supplies needed to be distributed.
After some consideration, Dorothy decided to give the Sunstone and the Floating Spirit Amulet to Vanya. It was normal to give the Sunstone to Vanya, as it was a thing that only the extraordinary "Lamp" could use, and Dorothy gave the Floating Spirit Amulet to her because she thought it could increase Vanya's physical strength. Anyway, with the reading method, Vanya could quickly accumulate the spirituality needed for the Floating Spirit Amulet.
As for Mukhtar's empty magic box, Dorothy decided to give it to Shadi. Although it was not very precious, it was not very useful to her since she already had a better version. So it was just right to give it to Shadi. The Soul-piercing Ring was suitable for the Beyonders of Silence to use in close combat, so it was the best choice to give it to Neveu. As for the remaining Soul-binding Scrolls, Talismans, and Secrets, she kept them for herself.
After finishing the tidying up, Dorothy put away the things on the table in front of her, then stood up and slowly walked to the balcony. Looking at Addis, which was originally full of smoke and gunpowder, it was now slowly returning to calm. Dorothy knew that Shadi had taken control of the situation and the chaos in Addis was now over.
"The situation in Addis has been settled, but the overall situation in Adus has not yet been decided. The next few days will depend on how the leader of the revolutionary army manipulates it..."
Looking at the city ahead, Dorothy murmured, she knew in her heart that once the news of Addis's situation got out, it would cause a huge stir in the whole Addis... and even the whole world.
