Chapter 197 The dragon egg hatches! The moonlight baptism of the high priest of the moon!
"Moonlight Witch?" Alice's voice rang in Su Xuan's ears. He stared at the woman in the crystal ball. She was wearing a white mask, covering her face and even her eyes. The blue, crystal-clear hair flowed like a waterfall, with tiny dots of light flashing in between.
Although she couldn't see her true face, Alice immediately recognized her as the Moonlight Witch.
But what confused Su Xuan was that this woman didn't seem to be the real Moonlight Witch. All he could hear was her voice echoing: "Are you... here for the prophecy?"
The image in this crystal ball is merely the image left by the Moonlight Witch.
"Excuse me, are you here to perform the Moon Ritual?"
Just as Su Xuan was lost in thought, a little girl about twelve or thirteen years old walked into the tent. Her eyes were clear and bright, as if she could see through everything. She curiously asked Su Xuan again, "Are you here to perform the Moon Ritual?"
"Um."
Su Xuan turned around and nodded at the girl.
"Great! My Moonlight Shop is finally open!" The girl ran happily to the crowd. When she noticed Alice with tears in her eyes, she immediately asked with concern, "What's wrong with you? Why are you crying?"
"No...it's okay." Alice gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and shook her head.
"Don't be sad~ I'll give you a small gift!"
The girl handed a crescent-shaped ornament to Alice with a sweet smile on her face. "This is a small crescent with the blessing of the high priest. It will bless you!"
"Thank you~"
With the girl's gentle comfort, Alice finally smiled. She stared at the little crescent moon in her hand, and felt a hint of the Moonlight Witch's presence.
"That's right~ You look so pretty when you smile~"
Seeing Alice's smile, the girl also smiled happily. She walked to the crystal ball, faced Su Xuan, and asked with concern, "Are you going to perform the Moon Ritual? I feel something bad in your body."
"Um."
Su Xuan nodded, his voice slightly lowered, "I am cursed, I hope the Moon Ritual can help me suppress this curse."
As he spoke, he took out a silver coin from his pocket and handed it to the girl.
“Thank you for your generosity.”
The girl happily took the silver coin, bowed, and then continued to look at Su Xuan and instructed, "Please reach out to the crystal ball, but please keep your distance. This crystal ball contains the power of the high priest, and it can guide you."
“High Priest…”
When Su Xuan heard the girl's words, his eyes narrowed slightly.
Could it be that the Moonlight Witch is the high priest of the Moon God Empire? While thinking, he stretched out his hand towards the crystal ball, but kept a certain distance, about five centimeters.
At this moment, Su Xuan was surprised to find that his fingertips began to flash with a faint white light.
Then, the image of the woman in the crystal ball gradually disappeared, replaced by a bright and clear crescent moon.
The crescent moon emitted a brilliant white light, so dazzling that Su Xuan couldn't help but close his eyes.
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in endless darkness with nothing around him.
"Where is this?"
Su Xuan was filled with confusion and found that he could not move his body.
A few seconds later, a soft ray of moonlight poured down from above, enveloping him.
Bathed in the moonlight, Su Xuan felt his body gradually becoming lighter, as if he was in a fairyland.
He slowly closed his eyes, feeling the moonlight gently enveloping his body, just like when he was a child, the older sister living next door gently kissed every inch of his skin...
[Accepting the baptism of moonlight...]
[The Moon Ritual is over! The blood curse has been suppressed! ]
After an unknown amount of time, Su Xuan slowly opened his eyes.
When he saw the scene again, he found himself still standing in the tent.
Ivsa and the others were watching him quietly, waiting for the result of the Moon Ritual.
"Master, how do you feel?"
Alice asked with concern.
"Not bad." Su Xuan looked at his hands. After the Moon Ritual suppressed the curse, he felt extremely refreshed, and his desire for blood completely disappeared.
"How long did the ceremony last?" he immediately asked Ivsa.
"About two hours," Ivsa replied.
"Two hours?"
Su Xuan nodded silently, then thanked the girl, "Thank you for the Moon Ritual."
"That's what I'm supposed to do, my guest."
The girl smiled and continued, "By the way, guest. I have some small gadgets here that may help your curse. Do you need them?"
As she spoke, she took out a bunch of various magic props for Su Xuan to choose from...
A few minutes later, everyone walked out of the tent.
“Looking forward to seeing you again!”
In addition to performing the Moon Ritual, Su Xuan also bought several Moonlight Bracelets, which could increase magic power by 10 points, and he planned to give one to each member of the guild.
But compared to these magic props, Su Xuan was more concerned about Alice's condition.
He looked at Alice, who had mixed emotions.
Alice met the Moonlight Witch who created her again, but learned that she might be the high priest of the Moon Empire.
The Moon God High Priest has a high status in the Moon God Empire, even higher than the king, and is the only one who can communicate with the gods.
This book was recently updated on ##六@@九@@书@@吧!! Update!
In the Sun Cult, it is equivalent to the position of the Pope, but there are still some differences between the two.
Because the High Priest of the Moon God can never leave the Moonlight Altar. As for the specific reason, it is not something Su Xuan can know.
"Don't worry, Alice."
Su Xuan gently stroked Alice's head and said softly, "We will definitely see the Moonlight Witch again."
"Yes~ Master, I believe you!"
Alice smiled and believed Su Xuan's words without a doubt.
"Let's go back~"
"Uh-huh!"
Just as Su Xuan was about to activate the teleportation array and return to the guild, a group of masked Lunar Empire soldiers passed by him, attracting his attention. But soon, the group of soldiers disappeared from his sight.
A white light flashed, and Su Xuan returned to the guild.
The guild was empty, as Lucia and the others had not yet returned from their mission.
Su Xuan glanced at the time, and it was just about time for the dragon egg to hatch.
"Come on, let's go meet the new members."
Su Xuan said to Evesa and Alice.
"A new member?"
When Alice heard this, a curious expression appeared on her face.
"Yeah." Su Xuan smiled and led them to an empty room.
In the room, a huge red dragon egg lay quietly in the center, emitting a fiery breath and dazzling red light.
"Is this the dragon egg from before?" Ivsa asked Su Xuan curiously.
"Yes."
Su Xuan nodded.
"But, wasn't there any sign of life in the egg at that time?" Ivsa was very surprised. She remembered that the egg didn't show any sign of life at that time, but now...
"Mr. Su Xuan~"
At this moment, the Red Dragon Mother suddenly appeared behind Su Xuan, silently.
"Thank you for your hard work. In two minutes, she will hatch out of the shell." Su Xuan gently stroked Nada's hair. Ever since she sensed the signs of life in the dragon egg, she has been waiting here, waiting for the dragon egg to hatch.
"Great! In two minutes, my baby will hatch!"
Nada's face was filled with joy like the spring sunshine, her eyes were full of the light of maternal love, and she was looking forward to the life that was about to be born.
While they were talking, the dragon egg moved and trembled slightly.
“Crack~”
As a crisp sound echoed, the atmosphere around them instantly became tense. Everyone's eyes were focused on the dragon egg, waiting for the arrival of new life.
Under the gaze of everyone, a crack quietly appeared from the top of the dragon egg.
