"Is this the projector?"
Josiah brought Heroria and Messiah to a warehouse at the bottom of the White Wattle Flower.
Josiah showed Heroria the projector she wanted.
But Heroria held a protocrystal in her hand.
"The original movie itself has the function of projecting."
Josiah picked up a protocrystal that recorded . After injecting mana into it, the opening scene of was projected on the wall.
"I know."
Heroria studied the protocrystal in her hand. She was sure that although the quality of this protocrystal was very high, the amount of mana it could contain was also huge.
But Heroria couldn't decipher the inscriptions inscribed in the protocrystal no matter what.
The storage medium of the simplified video camera that the Desireless brought back from Noland was also a protocrystal.
Unfortunately, that protocrystal could only store images for half an hour at most, and the projected image couldn't be enlarged to the level provided to the audience in the cinema.
Under Josiah's hint, Heroria thought that Josiah used some special magical machine to enlarge the image.
But now it seemed that the so-called "projector" that Josiah mentioned was just a protocrystal with better quality and more complex inscriptions.
"Josiah Yanorod." Heroria looked at Josiah after a brief hesitation. "How do you understand the knowledge of this inscription system?"
"Can I give you a trade secret answer?" Josiah said.
"Trade secret."
Heroria looked at Josiah with a very strange expression. She knew far more details about this world than ordinary humans.
The inscriptions that Josiah engraved in these protocrystals might seem to Josiah to be the exclusive magic of chaos demons.
However, Heroria clearly knew that these inscriptions came from those underground ruins.
"If there's time, I'd really like to ask you about these inscriptions and the programming of the Weave."
Heroria stared at Josiah for a long time. In the end, she chose to give up on pursuing this matter with Josiah.
"If you want to make a higher-quality 'movie' instead of an ordinary 'documentary short', you can use these two cameras. Of course, as previously agreed, these things can only be used for a limited period of time. Of course, we will provide after-sales service at any time."
Josiah pointed at the camera and the blank crystal on the other side of the warehouse.
"Can I find you to replenish my magic power at any time?" Heroria understood the meaning of Josiah's words literally. "Name a price. How much do they cost?"
"To be honest, I haven't thought about the price yet. After all, I've never treated these things as commodities." Josiah fell into deep thought after being asked this question by Heroria. He subconsciously looked at Messiah who was behind Heroria.
Messiah, who had slightly relaxed his vigilance, tensed up the moment he felt Josiah's gaze.
"You want her?"
Heroria began to guess Josiah's thoughts based on Josiah's gaze.
Just as Josiah was about to deny Heroria's guess, Josiah was surprised to see the female knight reveal a resolute expression.
"If that's the only way." Messiah's voice sounded as though he was prepared to sacrifice himself.
"Uh, unfortunately, Miss Messiah, I'm not interested in you."
But just when the female knight was prepared to become a sacrifice to the devil, Josiah poured a bucket of 'ice cubes' on her head.
"You people from the Kingdom of Saints don't rely on 'bartering' when buying things, right?"
Josiah looked at Heroria who was snickering.
"Of course, I'll give you a satisfactory price in terms of money." Heroria said.
Heroria's answer made Messiah's tensed heart slightly relieved. But at the same time, she felt an inexplicable sense of loss.
… …
Holy City.
Heroria did not stay in Noland for long. After completing the transaction with Josiah, she returned to the Holy City.
"Looks like you want to stay there for a few more days."
On the way back to Noland, Heroria observed Messiah's expression of pity from time to time.
"Madam Heroria, now is not the time to think about this." Messiah said.
"Yes, it is indeed not the time to think about this. I can feel something under the Holy City starting to move."
Heroria walked towards the teleportation door in the center of the Holy City. As the teleportation door had not been officially opened, there were not many people in the hall.
"Moving."
Messiah carried a huge suitcase and followed behind Heroria. In the suitcase was the creation of the devil.
She followed Heroria to the streets of the Holy City. The people on the streets did not feel the impending crisis at all. They were still living their lives.
Messiah could occasionally hear people talking about Heroria's recently built cinema.
"Madam Heroria …" Messiah quickly followed Heroria. "Let's issue an evacuation request. Let the people of the Holy City go to Noland temporarily. At least …"
"Don't mention this to me again, Messiah."
At this moment, Heroria's joking tone became cold.
"Why don't you understand?" Heroria turned around and opened her arms. "The teleportation door of the Holy City can only accommodate less than ten thousand people to Noland. How many people are there in the Holy City? Two hundred thousand? Three hundred thousand? And if we tell them the truth, the entire Holy City will usher in a huge panic. "
"But …"
This time, Messiah did not comply with Heroria. She put down the suitcase in her hand and her tone became tough.
"Are you really going to watch the lives of so many people be threatened and do nothing?"
Anger flashed across Heroria's face when she was questioned by Messiah. But it was only for a moment and was quickly replaced by disappointment.
"Is that so? Even Messiah, you don't want to believe me? To be honest … I don't want to believe myself either. "Heroria said.
"Believe is referring to …"
Messiah also realized that his attitude just now was too impulsive. The people around them also looked at them. Messiah immediately grabbed Heroria's hand and ran to an empty alley.
"The people of the Holy City are the source of my power. I'm going to use my own power to suppress the thing that the court wants to summon." Heroria leaned against the wall of the alley and looked at the people coming and going. "At this critical moment, if the Holy City falls into a panic, I can't be sure if the power they provide me will become stronger … or weaker. But I don't dare to gamble."
Once again, Messiah saw an expression of helplessness on Heroria's face.
"Because I'm not sure if I can rely on the power I have now to resist the thing that the court summons."
Messiah even heard an emotion called fear in Heroria's voice.
"So there's no time to complain here. Let's return to the cathedral! I have to ask that teacher of yours one last time. "
Heroria didn't wait for Messiah to react and directly walked out of the alley towards the cathedral.
Messiah didn't ask any more questions and followed behind Heroria back to the cathedral.
But the moment Messiah arrived at the underground prison, he saw that the prison floor was already covered in blood. The Holy Army that was in charge of guarding this place had already become a corpse. There were also more than ten corpses that were so twisted that they didn't even look human.
There had clearly been a huge battle here, but this battle ended surprisingly quickly.
"Army Commander Aulus …" Messiah looked at the corpse on the ground in disbelief.
"Even if we have to sacrifice so many members, we still have to save that guy?"
Heroria expressionlessly arrived in front of the prison that originally held Kobler. The prison's iron gate had been completely destroyed, and the person inside was nowhere to be found.
"Looks like that guy is a very important part of the judge's plan." Heroria used her hand to wipe the blood on the ground and stood up. "Messiah, it's time to go."
"Lady Heroria, why don't we first send the Army Commander and the others …"
"Someone will bury them. You don't need to worry about it." Heroria walked out of the underground prison and raised her blood-stained finger slightly. "Is this the effect of the Grey Fog? Although it's very blurry, I did capture it … "
