Chapter 535
Before explaining the content of the mission, La Lune told Diana something about the Bright Moon Sect.

The latter is a child picked up and raised by the Sun Sect, who has been indoctrinated with the faith of the Sun since he was a child.And because of the sect's extreme xenophobia, as a bright moon protoss, she knew almost nothing about the moon.The only bits and pieces of information she knew were made by herself, and she found them from books sealed up by the sect or the murals of the ruins in the wilderness.

After learning that the Bright Moon Sect advocated the coexistence of the sun and the moon, instead of rejecting all other forms of light like the Sun Sect, they immediately showed great affection for them, thinking that this is where they belonged, and they were willing to continue to listen to Laluen go on.

For the Solari Sect who raised her and the good sisters who firmly believed in her faith, Diana couldn't overthrow them all, so she hoped that the people on both sides could coexist.

Diana didn't know anything about Moonstone, as Lalune expected.When she heard that she was going to climb the peak again to get the moonstone, Diana was very unhappy.

"Why do you have to go?" The other party really didn't come to accept her for nothing, they came to the door, but they asked her to help with things.

"Climbing the Giant God Peak, if you don't succeed, you will be successful, and you are the Bright Moon Star Spirit, the one who came back from the summit. Only you can bring the moonstone down from there alive."

"What will happen if I don't go?" Diana suddenly had a bad intuition that the result of this trip might not be as she wished.

"The light from the moonstone can help the mermaids suppress the horrors in the dark abyss, and the bright moon pearl allows us to hide in the cave and receive the blessing of the moonlight." Laluen sighed: "The mermaid The survival of the human race and the reputation of the Bright Moon Sect depend on this moonstone, if we fail to fulfill our promise, we will lose... not just a friendship."

"Okay then. I can go up, but you have to take me to your holy place to follow the instructions of the moon."

Diana finally agreed.She gained the power of the protoss, but not the corresponding instructions.She didn't know what she was going to do with this power. She could only contact the truly wise elders and monks of the Bright Moon Sect through the Aphelios brothers and sisters, and get enlightenment from them or from the ancient books.

"Mother Moon will guide you, Diana."

The projection of Laluen opened her arms to Diana, and then disappeared from everyone's sight.Aphelios was lost for a while, and then led Diana out of the hidden alcove.Diana followed behind him, silently pondering Laluen's words.It was too early for her to call the moon a mother.

Going back the same way, Aphelios still chose the shortcut of the floating island.When he used the falling light to pull the messy floating island into a springboard, Diana was also learning his skills, and immediately showed her strength as a protoss.

She stood motionless on the spot, without any preparatory actions to accelerate, and suddenly turned into a flash of white light, sprinting to another floating island tens of meters away, and the afterimage was extremely straight, as if she had escaped the shackles of gravity.After Diana stopped, she turned the scimitar out of a full moon very gracefully, and turned to look at Aphelios. Her long silver hair fluttered in the moonlight, her star pupils twinkled, and the mark on her forehead exuded a bright light.

Looking back at the bright moon star spirit under the moon, this scene is worth remembering for any member of the Bright Moon Sect, no matter men, women, young or old, but Aphelios only has his sister in his heart.

Noticing that Aphelios couldn't sprint like himself, he thought for a while, swung the crescent scimitar, and an arc of moonlight streamed down.The moonlight stretched from Diana's feet to the front of Aphelios, the light did not dissipate, but formed a bridge of arc light.

"Come up," Diana said.

Aphelios stepped onto the bridge of light immediately, without any doubt that he would step on the ground.He quickly followed Diana, but when the latter was about to release a bridge of light again, he stopped her.

"Your light is too dazzling in the dark night." After some effort, Aphelios conveyed his meaning to Diana.Afterwards, he continued to advance in the old way, although it was a bit slower, but it was better to be safe and concealed, which was especially important to him.

The two successfully arrived at the Holy Land of the Bright Moon Sect. This is a temple hidden deep in the mountain. The entrance is covered by illusions like mirrors and water. Only those who are very familiar with the surroundings can accurately find it.

Diana followed Aphelios deep into the temple, and all the believers she met along the way were amazed. All the people except the guards followed her spontaneously, and finally gathered in an altar.

In the middle of the altar is a shallow pool with blooming twilight flowers floating on the water surface, burning candles are held up on wooden trays, and a priestess wearing a gauze skirt who has dyed her skin color into twilight is kneeling In the pool, hands spread out looking up at the night sky, praying for something.

"Going forward in the vast night sky, stars like pilgrims, please stop and share with us what you have seen and heard."

Diana was very interested in the eulogy of the priestess, so she stopped to listen.Just as she was fascinated, the priestess stopped praying, got up and walked towards her, holding her hand.

"Daughter of the moon, we have stood here for a thousand years, and finally we have waited for your arrival."

"Are you not afraid that I am a spy sent by the Sun Sect?" Looking at the other party's face covered under the tulle, Diana asked back.

"It turns out that our protoss is still a humorous person." The priestess smiled: "Moonlight was born in the sun, and it also tolerates the sun. Since Mother Moon chose you, then we only need to follow in your footsteps, I believe you will eventually lead It is enough that we move toward coexistence.”

Diana glanced around, people gathered around her, forming a circle, looking at her with expectant eyes.

"I am the choice of the moon..." She looked down at the pool, and the moon reflected in the pool water overlapped with her reflection.

She felt it made sense, but couldn't say why.

"It's not too late, take advantage of the deep night, finish the ceremony quickly and go on the road. There is not much time to wait for the Tidecaller."

"Ritual?" Diana asked puzzled.

The priestess did not answer, but took her by the hand and led her into the pool together.Ripple opened the white candle, and the monks gathered around, bowed their heads by the pool, and recited the eulogy reverently.

Diana did not move, and let the priestess wash her face with water, and then apply a powder on her face.She looked at the water, looked at her face through the scene, and saw that her eyes had been painted with eyeshadow that looked like tears.

"This is a blessing ceremony, praying for the safe return of our warriors. And what is smeared on your face is the dust of evening flowers, which can make you feel the power of the moon."

The Diana the priestess said had no feeling at all. As a protoss, she was a powerful container of astral power, and she didn't need these foreign aids at all.But since it's praying for her, feel free to do so, and the pollen still smells faintly, which seems to be pretty good.

After that, the priestess smeared Diana's weapon with evening flower dust, and then taught her a prayer, asking her to pray to a sacred monument covered with many evening flowers with her weapon raised.

But Aphelios did not forget Laluen's request, and took advantage of everyone not paying attention to him, stole some food that was originally used for offering, and made the Poro steal the tribute like crazy!
