Chapter 2109 - 2104: Lunar Chronicle and Law Core
Chapter 2109: Chapter 2104: Lunar Chronicle and Law Core
Who else had seen this image besides the Witch? Not to mention matching it with First Apostle Herbert.
The Witch confirmed such details for a reason, after all.
Then at this moment, her movements, though appearing elegant and unfamiliar, are not difficult to comprehend.
This clearly triggers a new version of a law similar to the Star Law once followed by the Celestial Sphere Sect.
And its function is simple, which is to respond to the seeker’s question.
Given the Witch’s style, she is unlikely to be this diligent, so the interesting part is that someone else is making the response.
As for who?
Although it was said earlier that no one other than the Witch has seen the First Apostle’s new appearance, don’t forget there’s a pocket watch.
Placed by the Witch in the World Within the Painting, the Baroness within the painted world seems to have transcended status, becoming part of the new law in an alternative way.
Though it seems exaggerated, on reflection it’s not hard, considering that compared to the massive consumption needed by the Star Law, the Leytin at present is the Witch’s private server.
It seems just a new set of rules, but the underlying logic has fundamentally changed; all great powers are built upon the painting.
And as was commented on back then, this method is even more effortless than the initial version of the World Within the Painting.
Because no matter how high the Transcendents’ ranking, essentially unlike the Seven Lights Believers back then, they don’t need to draw extraordinary power from the paint, hence not undermining the foundation.
Now the only difference between them lies in the permissions they can call within the rules; no one actually controls resources.
And in such a system, having a will that can occasionally respond to prayers and reveal truths is not a bad setup.
"A good idea, this task suits her well."
After the demonstration, Fu Qian looked at the Witch with a smile, momentarily unstinting in his praise.
"There won’t always be a response; I let her act freely."
Compared to the arrangement receiving positive reviews, the Knight’s smooth comprehension of her intention seemed to please the Witch more, prompting her to add an explanation.
"Indeed more suitable, divine majesty is unpredictable, and rigidness would only worry the believers."
Fu Qian still understood very well.
"I think so too... so does Annalise have more related information from earlier?"
Though the atmosphere during the audience was harmonious and pleasant, the Witch did not indulge too much; after showcasing some interesting changes, she quickly brought the topic back to business.
"Yes, in the world just now, she was once a believer of the initial Moon God until one day she suddenly responded to a summons and became the reincarnation of the faith’s object."
To this, Fu Qian casually shared witnessed history.
"She even truly acquired an upper-level ranking of authority, then created her own family of Vampire Clan.
"Then about a thousand years ago, that world experienced a calamity that almost ended the age of faith, with many Superiors perishing in the Long Night, and Annalise seemed to have certain foresight on this——though she even perished before the Long Night."
...
She foresaw it yet fell earlier than other Superiors?
"So you mean, during that Long Night, she never showed up?"
Fu Qian’s somewhat contradictory statement made the Witch frown in thought for a moment before asking.
"No, but the interesting part is here; the Dark Moon appeared and was quite active during the Long Night——very similar to your power, the Dark Moon."
Briefly, Fu Qian pointed at the Witch.
"Not long ago, the special commotion you sensed was me experiencing a moment during the Long Night in a special way, and then it exhibited effects almost identical to those in the ring, Dark Night."
The next moment, he pointed above.
A power very similar to the Dark Moon...
"And what happened after the Long Night?"
On this point, the Witch seemed to have foreseen it, slightly nodding.
"The Dark Moon also disappeared, then came the current Red Moon, but its state seems to have been poor all along, just like I mentioned before, as if forcibly twisted into a moon."
Fu Qian finished sharing his summarized lunar history.
"Truly tortuous... and then you suspect the Dark Moon is related to this, possibly even the same person as my ’mother’?"
The Witch marveled, thoroughly imagining the Knight’s effort to untangle the line, with a conclusion almost emerging.
"Yes, and there’s more evidence that your sense of law issues was likely correct; something called the essence core was lost, and it apparently went to that world from the current situation... and I went to a place after returning."
Fu Qian seamlessly followed the law line, casually sharing his experience in Xi Yuan.
"All in all, according to my encounters, the timelines almost perfectly match... which side it initially came from remains uncertain, but it’s clear the two worlds likely share an essence core of law.
"And the Star Law’s recent reappearance wasn’t due to law revival; on the contrary, it’s a symbol of total collapse."
...
"It indeed aligns with my experience."
Though the Knight had not been gone long, the shocking secrets he shared upon return were undeniable.
The logic within was seamlessly organized, allowing the Witch to also sort out many threads.
Of course, the hardships imagined are not unwarranted; sorting out this content and achieving the current "strength," the risk entailed cannot be overstated.
"It’s just a pity about ’her,’ I truly know little, merely wandering after birth, with only some discoveries on that painting... besides the extraordinary perception issue, are you also looking for more traces this time?"
Needing no reminder, she already guessed Fu Qian’s purpose for this visit.
"Yes, some things are best clarified – the night and nightmare are too long."
Fu Qian didn’t deny it, adding a somewhat abrupt sentence at the end.
"This is something said by a Superior who survived the Long Night in that place where I stayed, even though their condition can be called intact, they remained incredibly low-key, making me curious about what threat they wished to avoid.
"And during this process, I’ll display as much as possible, to see if you can find methods targeted at my current situation."
Casually sharing insights from communication with the Prism of Radiant Transformation, Fu Qian also didn’t forget the main objective amidst academic exchanges.
"Certainly, I actually know a place now, worth checking out together."
And true to expectations, the Witch nodded directly.
