Chapter 191 The Family's Heirloom Treasure? The Crimson Proxy's Move!
Chapter 191 The Family's Heirloom Treasure? The Crimson Proxy's Move!
The snow-white letter paper was clearly not an ordinary item.
The large characters written in ink above were now imprinted on Xia Fa's eyes, whose pupils had suddenly shrunk.
This necklace, named "A Face Carved with Knife and Axe," is a family heirloom. There are twelve such necklaces in total, and this one belongs to your mother, your aunt. Now, I'm giving it to you.
A face sculpted by a knife and axe?
Xia Fa was somewhat surprised; the name of this necklace was indeed a bit strange.
As for this heirloom treasure... wasn't his mother from a small town? Why would his family have an heirloom treasure?
Thinking back to the mysterious disappearances of his father and mother a few years ago, Xia Fa frowned slightly, realizing that something was wrong.
Fortunately, I am now an Eagle-level superhuman, and I have signed two Overlord-level secret contracts, which allows me to easily kill demigods and even exchange blows with angels who have not signed Overlord-level secret contracts.
In this situation, even if one's mother's family is really involved in something, there's no need to be too afraid.
After all, above angels are rulers. In the entire Star Coin Continent, even including the five pirate emperors and the Crimson Agents, there are only a dozen rulers in total. Under normal circumstances, it is really not easy to encounter or make enemies with them.
Although he had already incurred the enmity of the Crimson Proxy, this extraordinary monarch...
As for how to use it, you just need to hold the axe pendant on the necklace and scratch it against your face. The harder you scratch, the better the effect.
The handwriting on the letter was quite striking, and Xia Fa certainly couldn't believe it easily, even though he recognized that it was indeed the handwriting of his cousin Locke.
However, there are other ways, such as using a "simple divination stone" to perform a divination.
Xia Fa's gaze sharpened slightly as he continued reading.
[At 1 a.m. tonight, my brother and I will be waiting for you at the "Mango Tavern" in the Worm Islands. Let's have a good get-together.]
By the way, you don't need to worry too much about your uncle and aunt's disappearance for now. The only thing that's certain is that they are still alive, but their whereabouts are unknown.
My brother and I have been searching at sea for years, but we've made very little progress.
They were indeed just ordinary citizens, yet they mysteriously disappeared. This matter has always weighed on my and my brother's minds, and we will never let it go.
Don't worry, we will continue the search.
The letter ended there. Xia Fa put away the letter and fell into deep thought.
Xia Fa knew that his parents, who had disappeared a few years ago, were indeed just ordinary people who had not signed any secret contracts.
So, if we're talking about something strange, it really is strange, because their disappearance was very odd, the police superintendent couldn't find anything, and even went to their home to take a statement.
On the other hand, it is also possible that they were kidnapped by robbers or thugs. In this age of steam and machinery, technology was not advanced and there were no surveillance cameras. It would not be difficult for robbers or thugs to leave no obvious traces.
The only thing that Xia Fa was grateful for was that her parents were still alive.
Hercules, the angelic cousin, must have consulted the oracle and confirmed that his aunt and uncle were still alive, which is why he persisted in gathering information.
"Perfect timing. We should arrive at the Worm Islands around 10 PM tonight. I'll do some light exercise, take a nap, and then head to the Mango Tavern to see my cousin and younger cousin in the early morning..."
Cousins Hercules and Locke were blood relatives, and they had grown up together, so he could trust them almost completely.
On the other hand, her cousin Hercules was at least an angel, which was a great help to her during her trials and adventures at sea.
Therefore, Xia Fa naturally had to attend the banquet to see his cousins whom he hadn't seen for ten years.
Without much thought, he carefully put away the letter and the metal sphere, then picked up the necklace called "A Face Carved with a Knife and Axe" and examined it closely.
But then, something strange happened.
The moment he grasped the small, silver, axe-like pendant, Xia Fa suddenly felt a strange heat rise in his blood!
If he were still just an ordinary person who had never signed a secret pact, he wouldn't have noticed anything. But now, he has already entered the basics of mysticism, and his spiritual intuition is extremely sharp.
Xia Fa suddenly realized that this was indeed a secret treasure passed down from his mother's bloodline family, which triggered his "bloodline intuition"!
Possessing such a treasure that resonates with one's bloodline not only comes at almost no cost to oneself, but also allows one to unleash its maximum effect.
As for divination, there's no need for it at all. Through bloodline connection, it's already completely certain that this is indeed a family heirloom passed down from my mother's family.
It won't even cause any harm to you, nor will it contain any hidden traps.
According to the "Augustus Family Chronicles," any heirloom treasure that has been altered by human intervention will no longer be able to trigger a bloodline connection.
Conversely, since it can be triggered, there shouldn't be any problems.
Xia Fa became increasingly curious and immediately picked up the silver axe pendant, lightly scratching it across his handsome face.
The silver axe pendant was exceptionally sharp; with just one slash, a bloody gash appeared on his face.
at this time,
I saw...
I saw...
Nothing happened!
Xia Fagang was puzzled, but then he saw that a bead of his own bright red blood on the silver axe pendant was being absorbed by the axe blade.
The next moment, a vast amount of knowledge and information poured out from the silver axe pendant and entered his mind through his pervasive spiritual intuition.
Having experienced the mental storms that come with each advancement in understanding the Silver Throne and the acquisition of secret abilities, the sheer volume of information about the various uses of this legendary treasure surging from this "sharply sculpted face" pales in comparison.
Xia Fa immediately understood, and then a thought struck him.
Suddenly, the slash on his face opened up, almost lifting his entire face, along with his scalp and hair, revealing the stark white bones and red muscle texture beneath.
But immediately, the skin was covered over his face again.
Xia Fa's appearance has completely changed; he looks like a completely different person.
His hair had turned a magnificent gold, and his pupils were also gold, but his face was no longer as handsome as Shafa's original. If James the Golden Rapier were here, he would surely recognize that Shafa... had actually transformed into His likeness.
Not only their appearance, but even their height and weight are exactly the same!
Just then, the "sharply cleaved face" in Xia Fa's hand melted into silver liquid, flew towards him, and quickly covered his entire body.
Shafa stood up and found that he had changed from a linen shirt and jeans to a rather elegant blue and white knight's outfit, with James's signature golden rapier hanging at his waist.
But that's not the key point. The key point is...
“Except for the fact that I don’t possess the aura of an angel, everything else is exactly the same…”
Xia Fa was amazed. Even if he used the strange current at his spine to activate some secret treasure or seal that could break through disguises and illusions to examine him now, he would not be able to find the slightest clue!
When he uses the strange current at his spine and tail, he can basically exert the secrets of the Sovereign level!
In other words, if he uses this "sharply sculpted face" as a disguise, as long as he doesn't impersonate a being of demigod rank or higher, even the ruler himself won't be able to detect him!
Of course, if you get too close to a ruler, there might be problems, but if you are far away, there will be absolutely no problem.
"Truly worthy of being a family heirloom of my mother's clan..."
Xia Fa was overjoyed. His biggest problem when he went to sea was that he might encounter a surprise attack from the Crimson Agents at any time.
He even suspected that the perilous journey he had encountered since boarding the Red Porcupine was perhaps orchestrated by the Crimson Agent, this extraordinary monarch, using the most enigmatic and difficult-to-defend overlord-level secret contract, "Conditions Forever," to secretly intervene.
His speculation was not unfounded; it mainly stemmed from one point.
That was the arrival of Prince Justinian and Avalon, two angelic overlords.
Under normal circumstances, if these two angel-level overlords hadn't boarded the ship, and Xia Fa and Captain Red Porcupine had still experienced that time-looping ghost realm that even angels were powerless against, and also encountered the entity of the "sightseeing ship from which there is no escape," Xia Fa would naturally not have noticed anything.
But by sheer coincidence, these two angelic overlords boarded the ship, and Prince Justinian was quite related to him, since he was now considered a member of the Augustus family.
In this situation, whatever dangers they encountered during the voyage could be easily resolved with the help of Prince Justinian and Avalon.
For example, even if he were surrounded by five pirate ships commanded by demigods, it would be a matter of Avalon resolving the situation with a single move while piloting the Gungu Machine.
But ironically, he encountered two dangers that even angel-level overlords were completely powerless to deal with: the time-looping ghost realm and the sightseeing ship from which he could not escape.
Once is one thing, but twice in a row? Xia Fa simply doesn't believe there's no problem.
"Based on my previous experience and the information and intelligence I saw in the 'Augustus Family Chronicles,' this overlord-level secret contract of 'Conditions of Eternity' does indeed seem to be able to exert an 'eternal' influence by 'meeting' certain conditions, and it ignores distance..."
“The Crimson Agent dares not appear in the sea of the Father of All Stars at will. After all, the Father of All Stars is also an extraordinary monarch, and he signed the ‘Gate of the Stars’, a hegemonic-level secret contract. If we face him head-on, he will definitely be stronger than us.”
"However, He was secretly influencing me, or rather, the entire Red Porcupine, through the eternal condition, leading us into dire straits several times..."
Having just escaped from the "inescapable sightseeing boat," Xia Fa encountered the Shark Princess's Shark Ship and was then invited to a banquet. Xia Fa didn't have time to calm down and think things through.
Now, having obtained the legendary treasure "The Face That Is Carved with a Knife and Axe," and suddenly connecting it to the Crimson Agent, Xia Fa immediately noticed many clues.
He couldn't help but feel fortunate that Prince Justinian and Avalon, two angelic overlords, had boarded the ship.
Otherwise, there are far too many dangers that Captain Red Porcupine and the two demigods, Dagney, cannot handle. The Crimson Proxy can easily influence them to encounter these dangers.
It was precisely because there were two angelic-level overlords on the ship that the Crimson Executor didn't have as many choices.
The only way is to first affect their entry into the time-looping ghost realm, and then affect their Protoss jump, causing the jump to malfunction and placing them on the edge of the Pale Suffocating Sea.
Then, they happened to encounter the sightseeing boat that was coming out of it, the one from which there was no escape.
After all, no matter how powerful the Crimson Agents are, they certainly can't affect physical entities. So the only option is to influence their Protoss jump in the opposite direction, causing them to encounter physical entities.
"Crimson Agent..."
Xia Fa narrowed his eyes, a fierce glint flashing within them, and clenched his fists slightly.
He knew that after killing the demigod Pompeii, he would definitely be targeted by the Crimson Agent, but he thought that the Crimson Agent was being hunted down by the Roaring Emperor and should not have time to care about him for the time being.
Unexpectedly, He had already tried to kill Him twice.
Even those five pirate ships from the demigods under the Howling Emperor's command might have been brought there by the Crimson Agent using the secret power of "Eternal Conditions".
This was tantamount to shifting the blame eastward, making them enemies of the Roaring Emperor as well.
However, Xia Fa had always disliked the Roaring Emperor and the Thousand-Faced Prophet, two pirate emperors who allowed their pirates to burn, kill, plunder, and harm civilians, so he didn't care about making enemies.
Although in the end, Avalon bore the brunt of the consequences...
Xia Fa opened his fist, and his blue and white knight's armor and the golden rapier at his waist reformed into the necklace, which flew into his palm.
He looked at the "sharply sculpted face" in his palm, his eyes flashing.
He liked the necklace the most; whether it was the secret runes engraved on the chain or the silver axe-shaped pendant, everything about it looked so pleasing to the eye.
Perfect timing! We're not only getting close to the Worm Islands of the "Father of Ten Thousand Stars," but we're also aboard the Shark Swarm, the "Princess of Sharks."
With two powerful figures holding the position of Sovereign in the presence of the Scarlet Executor, no matter how arrogant the Executor might be, he would absolutely not dare to spy on anything in secret.
Then, before the Shark Gang arrives at the Worm Islands and countless pirates disembark, he can hide in the shadows and immediately use his "sharply sculpted face" to change his appearance and completely hide himself.
To avoid being constantly watched by the Scarlet Agents.
Being watched by a transcendent monarch at sea every day, and with this monarch signing an extremely strange and difficult-to-defend overlord-level secret contract with the condition of "eternal" is really unbearable for Xia Fa, especially after what happened today.
With a thought, Xia Fa's face and scalp were lifted up again, and when they fell back down, he had regained his appearance.
Although he was a little drunk, seeing that it would still be about two hours before they arrived at the Worm Islands, Xia Fa thought for a moment and immediately decided to start exercising right now!
He was actually a bit tired today, after all he had been through, but this meal was just too good. His physical strength and energy had almost recovered, and his stomach was full of extraordinary food.
With the Crimson Proxy constantly watching from the sidelines, and the truly bizarre abilities of the Eternal Conditions, a supreme-level contract, Xia Fa felt an increasing sense of urgency. He no longer planned to rest, feeling that the sooner he started training, the better!
He sprinkled some more iron filings into the small room, disrupting the flow of time and space once again. After confirming that there were no problems, he immediately began to do push-ups with his palms on the floor.
"After doing push-ups, I must break my pull-up record today!"
Xia Fa gritted his teeth and did push-ups one after another with perfect form.
At the same time, he also began to feel a sense of anticipation.
If I break the record for the most pull-ups this time, will I be able to gain some new abilities?
