Learn one small skill every day

It seems that some people object to using this as a thank-you gift.

However, under the authority of the bishops and the pope, such dissenting voices were suppressed.

"A legendary hunter... Doesn't that mean he's on par with Favre?"

Has such a figure ever emerged from the Healing Cult?

Bai Miao was somewhat skeptical.

Karlrens continued, "That was a long time ago. Back then, a hunter from the Healing Cult named Stewart got lost in Abyss Street and managed to find his way out. He not only obtained the original Holy Sword, but that sword was also indestructible. After Stewart passed away, the sword could not find a suitable person to use it."

"The original holy sword?"

The description of the Holy Sword contains a passage.

Legend has it that this sword was made in imitation of a legendary greatsword, but no one has ever seen the original.

Is this the thing?

But what does it mean that no one has ever seen the genuine article?

"Yes, the swords used by the hunters in the sect are all based on this design."

"Now that you mention it, I am indeed interested. Being able to use a legendary hunter's weapon would be a great honor for me."

Let's get the equipment first.

The Holy Sword had worn down considerably during so many battles. Although Bai Miao had acquired two new ones, he still felt somewhat less enthusiastic about using Zain-level weapons.

"Hehe, I'm glad you're satisfied. Please come with me. We'll enshrine that holy sword in the Star Moon Hall, which is also where we baptize our new hunters."

Chapter 203 Preparations Before the Return

The Hall of the Crescent and the Hall of the Dormition are located very close to each other, both situated on the top floor of the entire cathedral.

It could even be said that the Hall of Repose was originally part of the Hall of Stars and Moon, and was a temporary area set aside to provide a place for people suffering from nightmares to sleep peacefully.

Now that Bai Miao has cured the nightmare syndrome, there is no need for the Anxi Hall to continue operating, and it is only a matter of time before it merges with the Xingyue Hall.

When Bai Miao passed by, he saw some hunters carrying the stone slab bed out of the resting hall.

"The Star and Moon Hall is a rather sacred place for our Healing Cult. Originally, the baptism ceremony required at least one bishop, one priest, one nun to preside over it. However, after the nightmare syndrome, apart from the nun, it is difficult for the others to have the energy to preside over the ceremony at all times."

Karlrens walked beside Bai Miao, acting as his guide.

"Now we can finally move on."

"What is your next strategy?"

If someone else asked this question, they certainly wouldn't get an answer.

Karllund hesitated for a moment, then said softly to Bai Miao, "Dr. Moriarty...we hope to continue curing the disease so that there will be no more pain in the entire city of Yar."

As for whether these words were true or false, Bai Miao had no interest in asking further.

The entire Healing Cult gave Bai Miao the impression that they were incompetent but addicted to drugs.

I've just recovered from my nightmares, and I already have new ideas.

I wonder how the Healing Cult will have developed by the time I come back next time.

With all these high-level officials back to normal, it is foreseeable that the region will experience a period of rapid development in the near future.

Whether or not he would once again recklessly provoke strange things was beyond Bai Miao's concern.

Inside the Star Moon Hall, Bai Miao saw the high platform where Atalina had stood in her memories.

The glass curtain wall above allows sunlight to shine right into the area.

On the high platform, a silver-white sword was stuck.

The sword was about two meters long and over sixty centimeters wide, with no patterns on it, making Bai Miao wonder if it would slip in his hand.

The Pope walked to the sword: "Dr. Moriarty, this is the original Holy Sword, but you should have noticed that even if this sword can be stored in the Hunter Space, it cannot be used in battle because it is simply impossible to hold it tightly in one's hand. Its own weight causes it to slip to the ground no matter how strong a person's grip is."

Bai Miao tried to pull the sword from the floor, but just as the Pope had said, no matter how much force Bai Miao used, he couldn't pull it out.

However, Bai Miao can indeed directly store this sword into his item inventory.

Soon, the system displayed the information about the sword.

【Moon Sword (Not Activated)】

[Description: A greatsword forged from moonstone, possessing the property of being indestructible.]

It is rumored to be the sword used by the legendary hunter, Stewart.

Those who were fortunate enough to witness Stewart's battle will always have a bright moon in their minds.

What virtue does the moonlight possess? To die and then be reborn?

To wield the Moon Sword, you need 100 points in Spirit, 30 points in Strength, and 20 points in Agility.

[Passive Skill: While wielding the Moon Sword, slowly recover mental energy and reduce mental damage taken by 20%]

[Active Skill: Can be used after activating Moon Sword]

[Status: Intact (Indestructible)]

[Rating: He]

No wonder...

The system specifies the conditions for using the Moon Sword.

This was the first time Bai Miao had ever seen someone need such a high level of mental strength to wield a sword.

Inside the city of Yar, Bai Miao's mental limit was suppressed by 50%, making it impossible for him to use his abilities. However, once he left the instance, there was no problem at all.

Putting everything else aside, the fact that it cannot be destroyed is enough to make Bai Miao feel very appealing.

If there's something that can't be blocked, you can take this out and use it to block it.

I wonder if it can stop the Gungnir that Gong Ni made.

It might be used to block Gungnir; even if the person is gone, the sword remains.

Moreover, this item has a He rating even when it's not activated, so once activated it will definitely be a Gimel-level item.

Bai Miao carefully put away his belongings, without revealing any further information to the Healing Cult.

The name "Moon Sword" already subtly revealed the origins of this sword to Bai Miao.

The mysterious Lady Luna in Abyss Street not only loves to listen to the moonlight, but also gives out flowers called Moon Blossoms.

Perhaps the way to activate this sword lies with her.

Bai Miao will definitely visit again if he has the chance, and also visit his old friends from Abyss Street.

After receiving the items, Bai Miao did not rush to leave. Instead, at Karlrens' invitation, he visited various parts of the Healing Cult.

Karl-Lens seemed to want to show Bai Miao that the Healing Cult was indeed actively treating patients.

The Healing Cult, relying on its religious cohesion, gathered a large number of doctors, who in turn, with the help of the Healing Cult, had access to a wealth of experimental material and patients.

Compared to the doctors in Yar who run their own clinics, they may lack fame and wealth, but they can devote more energy to how to better treat patients.

After the dinner, Bai Miao was escorted back to his house by a group of hunters.

Bai Miao knew that his current dungeon run was nearing its end.

Further exploration might yield more results, but Bai Miao decided to spend the remaining time figuring out how to clean up the mess after leaving the instance.

“Dr. Lecter, that may have been the last meal I’ll have with you for some time.”

The first stop, naturally, was the plague doctor, Lecter, who caused Bai Miao immense inner turmoil.

After lunch, Bai Miao and Lecter sat on the sofa and chatted.

"Oh? Dr. Moriarty, it seems you have other plans?"

Lecter continued to sip his red wine with elegance, showing no emotion whatsoever.

"I plan to leave Yar City for a while to pursue further studies in the East."

“A good doctor should indeed broaden his horizons, but I’m curious, there’s no place in the world with medical technology that can compare to that in Yar City, so why go to such a faraway place?”

“Each has its own strengths. Staying in Yar City all the time will only limit my vision to this place.”

Lecter took a sip of red wine, his pupils seemingly gleaming.

Bai Miao suddenly realized that Lecter was also somewhat interested in his proposal.

“Dr. Moriarty, your statement has answered a question that has puzzled me for many years.”

...?

"That's my honor..."

Bai Miao didn't press for details about what exactly was troubling him.

But Lecter wanted to share with Bai Miao: "Dr. Moriarty, you know I've been in Yar City for so long, and it's only now that I've found someone who meets my requirements for an assistant. This is enough to show that there are very few people in Yar City who meet my criteria. I've been thinking about what the reason is. Are my requirements too high?"

"No, I know my own conditions are definitely not high. It's just that the people of Yar City were infected with the plague from the very beginning, and the disease lowered their growth and potential."

Bai Miao forced himself to listen to Lecter's somewhat excited words.

This was the first time Bai Miao had ever seen such excitement in Lecter.

"I have always been reluctant to leave Yar City because I believe that no psychiatrist can compare to the doctors in Yar City. I am confident that as long as I keep searching, I will find someone who meets the criteria, even if they are not psychiatrists."

“Dr. Moriarty, your words have reminded me that I should no longer confine myself to the city of Yar. I should go out and see what the minds of those people outside are like. Perhaps… I will soon find a new assistant.”

Bai Miao asked doubtfully, "But Dr. Lecter, don't you have many patients in Yar City? Don't you have many things to do in the city?"

Lecter smiled and put down his glass: "Then let them get well. As for everything else, nothing is as important as me finding a new assistant."

So you've always been able to cure it, but you're just dragging your feet and not actually getting it fixed?

But that makes sense; Lecter couldn't possibly save her instantly, at least not in such a dramatic way.

That was a revolutionary medical approach.

We should at least do something to show our appreciation, have a few more courses of treatment, and incidentally give up on some serious illnesses as a token gesture.

True masters live in seclusion. Compared to the legendary hunter Faful, whose reputation is widely known, Lecter, as someone of his caliber, is remarkably low-key.
